  • 08 AUGUST 2007 -- ISTANBUL, TURKEY: Turks get off one of the ferries that brings commuters across the Bosphorus Strait between the European and Asian side of Istanbul, Turkey. Although Turkey is officially secular, well over 90 percent of Turks are Moslem. Some women in Turkey dress in Western styles, other wear a head scarf and still others wear traditional Moslem covering from head to toe.

It was once the center of the Eastern Roman Empire and was called Constantinople, named after the Roman Emperor Constantine. In 1453, Mehmet the Conqueror, Sultan of the Ottoman Empire, captured the city and made it the center of the Ottoman Turkish Empire until World War I. After the war, the Ottoman Empire was dissolved and modern Turkey created. The capitol was moved to Ankara but Istanbul (formerly Constantinople) has remained the largest, most diverse city in Turkey.    Photo by Jack Kurtz

  • 26 JUNE 2020 - DES MOINES, IOWA: NADINE GARCIA, a worker at Fair Food Friday in Des Moines, hands a turkey leg to a customer. The 2020 Iowa State Fair, like many state fairs in the Midwest, has been cancelled this year because of the COVID-19 (Coronavirus) pandemic. The cancellation of the fair left many small vendors stranded with no income. Some of the fair food vendors in Iowa started "Fair Food Fridays" on a property a few miles south of the State Fairgrounds. People drive up and don't leave their cars while vendors bring them the usual midway fare; corndogs, fried tenderloin sandwiches, turkey legs, deep fried Oreos, lemonaide and smoothies. Fair Food Friday has been very successful. The vendors serve 450-500 people per Friday and during the lunch rush people wait in line in their cars 30 - 45 minutes to place an order.
