New internet regulations have provoked violence on the streets of istanbul. Holly williams is there. These protestors tried to march on taksim square, the symbolic heart of istanbul. Turkish riot Police Fought them back with tear gas and powerful water canons. The demonstrators responded with stones and fireworks.

Now his opponents claim hes using the internet regulations to cover up a recent corruption scandal. But the Prime Minister still commands the adoration of many turks. At a rally yesterday in istanbul erdogan told his supporters that the new laws will make the internet safer. But in a country already deeply divided, tighter control of the internet in turkey may only serve to fuel the fire of political dissent. Holly williams, cbs news, istanbul. Jeff aol chief Tim Armstrong reversed himself this weekend and restored the companys previous 401 k match policy. Armstrong touched off a fire storm last week when he made the cut in the match at aol to the cost to two employees who had given birth to what he called distressed babies. We are joined by cbs News Business analyst jill schlesinger. You have followed this closely. What happened . Aol announced the change to 401 k match, instead of matching based on every single pay period, they were going to match at the end of the year. This would save them money because any employee who wasnt there by the end of the year would to the get the match. Now the reason for the change was according to armstrong, because of these two complicated births for two employees at the firm, as well as an increase of 7. 1 Million Dollars due to obamacare which he didnt really go into detail about, but he said the combination meant that something had to give. And this was the 401 k match and his mind was going to be the thing this they could pull back. Jeff he reversed himself. They will continue the matches on a weekly basis. But on a broader scale is this something more companies are doing or thinking about doing . This is not something we is seen in any widespread way. We saw during the recession that Many Companies pulled back on their matching components but they restored those benefits as soon as the business got better. So i think this really does show you that if you are going to curtail benefits you bet he better be careful how it is rolled out, about how that is communicated. And you shouldnt attribute it necessarily to two specific employees. Jeff jill, thank you very much.

Nutrition in charge jeff there are new developments come this week in a story weve been reporting on since last spring. A mysterious lung illness is affecting veterans who were exposed to open burn pits which the u. S. Military used in iraq and afghanistan to torch everything from batteries to body parts. This week those veterans including Army Combat Medic Will Thompson may get some answers. Will thompson was often the life of the party while stationed in iraq in 2004. Today at age 43, he is an outpatient at Fairfax Hospital in virginia. The recipient of a double lung transplant. Struggling to stay alive. I want to live as long as i can. And if this mask can give me a couple more years, that is what i want to do. He says the issue began during his second iraqi deployment near camp victory in 2009. His wife suzanne. We did notice a couple times when i was skyping with him, why are you coughing sop much. Thompson was initially diagnosed with pneumonia but once back home in West Virginia with his wife an their two children, he saw his own doctor. He said this was way worse than pneumonia, your lungs look like an 80yearold smoker, coal miner. By the spring of 2010 doctors at walter reid diagnosed thompson with severe pulmonary fibrosis. The biopsy revealed tie trannium, magnesium and iron in his lung tissue. Suzanne thompson called dr. Anthony szema, a professor at Stone Brook University school of medicine who has been analyzing dust from iraq and its impact on veterans lung function. I wanted to make sure that he got some of the lung tissue. I said what happened to will, happened to will, we cant change that. But if there is anything we can do to help other soldiers, we wanted to do that. We first met dr. Szema last march. How toxic is that dust. This dust is very toxic. Jeff 14 of the veterans he studied returned with some sort of lung complication. This week dr. Szema will present the results of his teams analysis of camp victory dust to a pentagon subcommittee. After one month of exposure of sublethal doses of this stuff we can see thickening or lung fibrosis. So if in the mice, so if we give a larger dose, it will kill mouse. And eventually in a human that would lead to a lung transplant. Jeff any doubt in your mind that what is happening to him now is because of what he was breathing in overseas. I truly believe this happened in iraq. He was fine before he left. He was perfectly healthy. Jeff how has this changed your life . I hope and pray that my husband will be here with me to grow old and gray. But you know, i just i dont want to cry. This has changed me by just taking each day at a time. Jeff in a Statement Today the pentagon told cbs news that nothing is more important to us than the health and wellbeing of our people. We take seriously the concerns associated with exposure to airborne hazards. And continue to study the possible longterm health affects of this type of exposure during deployments.

Womens team will compete starting on tuesday. As don dahler reports tonight, it was a long climb to the top of the ramp. Just getting here to the top of the mountain has been an olympic size struggle. It took a lawsuit against the International Olympic committee. But ski jumpers lindsey van, Sarah Hendrickson and Jessica Jerome won the right along with female athletes from 11 other countries. The i. O. C. Argued ski jumping was simply too dangerous. The women jumpers repeatedly found themselves responding to the idea that jumping would injure their ovaries, a claim the former u. S. Womens coach larry stone scoffs at. The fact of the impact of landing from a ski jump could damage a girls reproductive organs is just nonsense. But whats not nonsense is what landing a ski jump can do to a womens knee according to dr. Sabrina strictland. They are not equal. Women most likely have at least a two time risk of having a ligament injury. Strictland a former competitive skier is an Orthopedic Surgeon in new york. She says in women the acl is simply not made to withstand the forces a jump places on it. The normal compensatory mechanisms that sort of help save our knees work better in men than women. Reporter by flexing their quad muscles the large ones on the side of the thigh, strictland says men give additional lateral support to their acls. But women flex their hamstrings and the back of the leg and that offers no protection against the acl being torn if the skiers balance is at all off. Sarah hendrickson injured her knee so badly last summer it was questionable whether she would make it to sochi. She is there now but has had difficult training runs and is complaining her knee hurts. In the past year eight top female ski jumpers have suffered knee injuries including canadian olympic hopeful alexandria pretorias. Why does she do that . Coach stone says injuries are a part of the sport. For women an men. I worry for any of our skiers or any skiers that go down. But i dont think there is any gender discrimination in terms of sports injuries. Its just what happens. Reporter critics of womens ski jumping say difficult rehab and longterm damage are the other strikes against the sport. The athletes themselves say its their bodies. And their right to fly. Don dahler, cbs news, new york. Jeff there is controversy today over a european zoos decision to kill one of its giraffes. The giraffe named marias was healthy in only two years old.

I see a team of sheriffs deputies in full on fat agencies and weapons drawn running towards us right now. It was surreal, we were pinned down by the gunfire.

Dorner was gunning for the Law Enforcement community so it was personal for Los Angeles Police chief charlie beck. This was unprecedented. This was a man who was hunting our families. What kind of animal, what kind of monster does this. Reporter Christopher Dorner was one of them, an exl. A. P. D. Cop with a grudge fired for lying in 2009. He struck back with a vengence killing the daughter of an l. A. P. D. Captain, her fiancee and two other police officers. When he was finally spotted in the resort town of big bear, he holed up in a cabin an opened fire. As im there im thinking this guy is not going to come out alive. Yeah. And that was a scary feeling being right there knowing that this guy would do anything because he is planning to die. He is already in his mind in my opinion, decided what the end of all this would be. Looking back on this, would you have done anything different . Yeah, i would have never hired him in the first place. And to have this mans name and deeds attached to this organization, you know, that will forever haunt me.
