And thats when i said i need a second opinion. Everyone, from the moment i walked through the doors, theyre smiling and i love the fact that included me in the whole process. The diagnosis of cancer is one of those things that you want an answer now. We can do now here. Rod was great. I mean, he did everything that we asked him and more. The treatment plan was for him to have chemotherapy and radiation followed by surgery. I feel like this was the right way for me and the right treatment for me. At Cancer Treatment centers of america, we treat cancer, every stage, every day. Call or go to cancercenter. Com. Appointments available now. The eagles need to say, we want to make this more friendly if you take less money this career, well give you more back end and guarantee you more down the road. Youre not going to cut his pay. What you may do is move things around shuffle it so that this career you got more to work with i think he definitely has the leverage and the situation. Wouldnt you say sure he does. We had him going out the door and all of a sudden he was their best line man. Wayne johnson help out a little bit with the situation but jason peters still the most reliable. Jason peters is i think the 9th or 10th highest paid tackling football, so you cant say hes overpaid. He definitely did the job last year. Speaking of that offensive line man, lets keep it there. We talked about cuts. Jason kelce to be back i think theres a good chance they let him go. He got better but he makes as lot of money as a veteran. You had a couple kids last year, the rookies come in to play pretty well on that line. Vy tied played well. You got a future there. The flip side is you got the young quarterbacks you want to protect them as much as you can. Bottom line, better than 5050 kelce is gone. Lets go to Connor Barwin gone. He wants to stay and he said hell take a pay cut and hes a great guy. Great Community Guy he does not fit the defense not anymore. What about Michael Kendricks . Interesting situation he wont be backing i think they will trade him if they can get anything. They will get a middle round disappointing draft pick but hes another guy who he fell so much last year, hes playing 12, 14 play as game. You dont need to play him one of the things they related to in the off season, the wide receiver receiver situation needs to be addressed. Its going to be on the draft or free agency. Theyve been linked to jennifer, stills, jackson, garcson, whats best way to address it you didnt say desean. I think alshon jennifers is a good fit. I a like kenny stills had his his first good season and thats what you need. You did need receivers and runners. But they had no deep threat last year, and thats what youll get with both those guys Desean Jackson said yes, i want the stay in dc. I dont like the way they talked about me when i left philly. Are you picking up what hes putting down . I think hes got pint. There was character assassination when he left. I dont know who was the was the cause of that. But it happened. He was one step away from getting arrested to stay in washington . If they give him the most money would you take him back not my first choice before him, i would take stills before him, hes not in my top three, four you mentioned kenny stills, he would be on his third team. So he started in new orleans. Fair point. And the other guy i like is brit from the rams who i think is a young rising player. Jeffries is one, brit two. Make a move in the draft i take probably a corner back or maybe a running back. Maybe a run back i know people dont like to take a running back in the first round if youre a great player, guess what . I want you on my team. I dont care what position. Even if its seemingly expendable. Lets talk about the ice. Flyers yikes theyre having issues. They got a w but the team cant score. Is there an answer on the roster to some degree in the way the coach coaches. Heres how i look at this. Their defense was really poor earlier this year. He moved the system changed it so that its much more conscious anxious on defense. They lien toward defense. Forward stay back. And you can score but if you have one guy who can beat the entire other team and score. Would you like that to be giroux, whos having a really bad Claude Giroux this year, 12 balls through 2 3. Hes on a pace for 18 goals. 18 yes, jacob vorachek, 14 goals, on pace for 21, hes a minus 50. Gostisbehere. A leap talent ok. What else you got in that pocket of tricks . You mentioned gostisbehere. Interesting scenario. Hes 23. They really had kind of vested time in him but the coach sits him for three games. My question is would they have been better off with maybe punish him with less playing time or not playing at all id bench him one game. Clearly didnt help the team clearly they got shut out. Hes not having the year that they want him to have. Hes down from last year, other teams figured out what he does. Its incumbent on him. You do something well, they figure it out. He hasnt done that, i think the coach is being way too harsh on him as opposed to some other players who equally or more so deserve that because normally when you bench a guy, at game or two. Three games seems to be excessive when you want a guy to learn and be part of the future i didnt like it at all. I dont like it. To me, i built his confidence as opposed to kick him in the pants. Heres the question. Right outside that wild card position. I think theyre eight, nine. If youre heck stall, do you make a move here . Id sell. Youd sell i dont buy, i sell. Theyre not going anywhere. The 39yearold defense man is the first guy would you move and get something for him. And i would not be adverse to trading mason, steve mason. I know a lot of people hate that idea. Hes a free agent after this year. I dont think hes any better than neuvirth. Not consistent enough for me. I would be not more than, i would be willing to move him in the right deal. Thats were just moving down the line here. Lets talk baseball. Your favorite. Phillies pitchers and catchers. Lesley van arsdale going to be there bringing you live reports on cbs3 starting monday at 5 00. What are you most excited about . The kids everybody is excited about the kids. They have half dozen guys just ready to make that move this year. We may not see them in april but i think well see them june, july, i was i think the phillies roster in september is going to be dramatically different from the one in april an lot better. Are we going to see crawford by the end of the year. Roman quinn he was excellent last september. If he can stay healthy. Hes fast, he can feel, hes got surprising power, hes the center to fielder of the future. Thats my number one guy, i love this kid, hes a. Catcher with power, and a gun. I think this kid, if he can figure out the strike, hes like ten strikeouts, if he can figure out the strike zone this kid can be an all star do you know who the longest tenured philly is at this point . Wow remember when we went into spring training last year, were talking ryan howard, chooch im going to give you a hint in the infield galvisa . Freddy galvis is the currently the longest tenure in philly i may not last long with the kid coming up. Does this team have a chance to be 500 this year outside, id give them 76, 78 wins. Underneath that, if they to me, if nola and healthy. Tommy john and i hope not, trying to work him through this thing, if it doesnt happen, its tommy john.

Reporter bringing back the names and lives of veterans, he says, is just what he does. I get to everyone eventually. Reporter thats a tall order. Not if yo researchers have come up with a revolutionary material called graphine. Its a thousand times thinner than a human hair and 200 times stronger than steel. Jonathan vigliotti has this story from london. Reporter they look like pages from vogue, but these photos are part of a scientific experiment, and the dress designers along with the scientists behind the technology, say it could revolutionize every aspect of human life. Its so extraordinary. In 2010, scientists who made it, were awarded the nobel prize for physics. Reporter in 2004, two scientists from manchester, england, used scotch tape, yes, tape, to isolate graphine from graphite, a material used in everyday pencils. The result, while invisible to the naked eye, is stronger than steel, flexible like rubber, and energy conducting. It stretches and twists, it rolls in quite bendable devices, not just touch screens, but flexible, transparent components. Reporter in this case, it becomes one little black dress. So thats graphine. Thats what it looks like just a few atoms thick. Reporter this is the design team behind cute circuit, the london based fashion label that specializes in wearable technology. The pair has illuminated stars like u2s bono and katy perry. But the latest piece is light years ahead of the others. How is your dress different from a dress that you just put on a switch and it lights up . Its different in a lot of ways. The first way that comes to mind is its a lot more intelligent. So if you just turn on a switch and it lights up, thats a simple circuit like a Christmas Tree or a flashlight. But ours is monitoring the breathing of the user and storing that in a microprocessor. So in a sense the dress is a computer in itself. Reporter the result, lights on the dress can change colors with the rhythm of a heart beat. So at future cocktail parties, you can tell if somebody is anxious by the color of their dress. Well, maybe. Thats one of the things people discovered about wearable technology, it suddenly redrews some of the boundaries of privacy information. Reporter the technology is being developed for cars and computers to medical equipment. These first steps are just the beginning. Jonathan vigliotti, cbs news, london. Thats the overnight news for this monday. For some of you, the news continues. For others, check back with us a little later for the morning news and cbs this morning. From the Broadcast Center in new york city, im elaine quijano. This is the cbs overnight news. Welcome to the overnight news. Im elaine quijano. Just hours before last nights Grammy Awards were handed out came news that legendary jazz singer al jarreau had died. He was 76. Jamie yuccas now with his life and remarkable career. Reporter al jarreau died at a hospital in los angeles sunday. For nearly half a century he performed on stages around the world. In 2004, he stopped by the cbs early show to debut his accentuate the positive album. He became a household name when he released his most popular single, were in this love together from the album break it away in 1981. The following year, he won a grammy for best male pop vocal performance, and he was also nominated for album of the year. The legendary jazz singers unique vocal style helped him achieve six more grammys over his career. He also recorded the theme song to the hit tv series moonlighting. He was 76 years old. Jamie yuccas, cbs news, new york. President trump is back at the white house after a weekend at his mara largo compound in florida. Two more of his cabinet nominees are expected to be confirmed today by the senate, Steve Mnuchin to lead the Treasury Department and David Shulkin to head the department of veterans affairs. As for his travel ban, which has been put on hold by the federal courts, mr. Trump insists all options are on the table. Civil rights lawyers are raising concerns about a series of raids by immigration and customs enforcement. Hundreds of undocumented immigrants were arrested in at least a dozen states. President trump tweeted, the crackdown on illegal criminals is merely the keeping of my campaign promise. Gang members, drug dealers and others are being removed. Officials say the raids had been in the works before the election. Carter evans reports. The people united, well never be defeated. Reporter from new york city to los angeles we are not going to tolerate the continuing attack on our families. Reporter activists are speaking out against immigration raids across the country. Photos from an operation in atlanta show agents arresting alleged immigration fugitives and criminals. In texas, video showing a man being detained by an i. C. E. Agent in front of a Fast Food Restaurant sends a chilling message according to Austin City Council member dellia garza. The video i saw was a man on his knees at a what a burger. That is a horrible thing for families and children to see. Reporter agents arrested 161 immigrants in los angeles this week, the vast majority had criminal convictions and outstanding deportation orders. A targeted operation that is not a response to president trumps crackdown, according to the director of the i. C. E. Office in los angeles. This operation was in the planning stations before the administration came out with their current executive orders. First of all, theyre not rounding anyone up. Reporter on friday, Homeland Security secretary john kelly tried to set the record straight at the border in san diego. The people that i. C. E. Apprehend are illegal and then some. Reporter earlier this week, secretary kelly told congress under the Obama Administration immigration agents expressed frustration that they were not able to do their jobs and morale was low. I bet if you watch the morale issue, youll be surprised going forward. Reporter los angeles is one of many cities across the country with Police Departments that have said they will not enforce federal immigration laws. President trumps job Approval Rating is on the rise. A cbs news poll found 48 still disapprove of the job hes doing, but 40 approve. Dean reynolds spoke with some of them in chicago. Reporter weve been visiting franks diner regularly, not just for the pancakes the size of catchers mitts, but for president ial politics, too. What grade could you give the president so far . I would have to break it in two. An a for intentions and a d for implementation. Reporter every trump supporter here said the rollout had been rocky. But like local businessman glenn woods, they blamed the president s opponents for making things worse. At the moment the democratic strategy seems to be make him stand in fire ants and eventually hell run away. Reporter we asked Joseph Santana about president ial falsehoods, president trumps charge that the media ignores terrorist attacks or that millions he says voted illegally in the last election. Do you believe that millions of votes were cast illegally . I dont have any proof either way. Reporter as for fake news do you think that somebody from cbs is going to do fake news . Going to make up something . I would hope thats not the case. Reporter nearby, dick and larry thought the president should take a breath. I think some of the things hes done probably should have been done a little slower. Reporter the executive order on immigration i dont think he gave it enough thought. I thought he would change after the election. Once he became president , that he would be more president ial. He hasnt gotten to that point yet. Reporter they both dismissed antitrump protests, like the big one in washington. What did you think about that . Oh, i thought that was the worst. I mean, the vulgarity and the violence that they espouse. Its not american. Its not the way we should be doing things. We had an election, you move forward. He won. Let him do his job. Reporter and thats what we heard over and over from mr. Trumps supporters here. They said, give the president a chance. Flu season is reaching its peak with the virus now widespread in 43 states. Dr. Jon lapook reports. Reporter with a quarter of the student body in clarkton, missouri home sick with the flu, School Officials decided to park the buses and close the doors.

It was supposed to be cursed, protected by venomous snakes and horrible diseases. They found the city, the snakes and the curse. Lee cowan has the story. Reporter the casts best selling author doug preston will say he doesnt believe in curses. And yet, here he is, being treated for an illness he contracted while on a jungle expedition. To a site rumored for centuries to rain misfortune down on anyone who entered. I would never trade that experience for anything. It was so powerful. Reporter his tale begins in the rainforests, carpeting some 20,000 square miles of honduras and nicaragua. The legend is there was a great city in the mountains struck by a series of catastrophes, and the inhabitants thought the gods were angry and left, leaving their belongings behind. Reporter some call it the white city. Others, the city of the monkey god. Its possible existence has tantalized adventure seekers since the 1500s. Including steve elkins who has been obsessed with finding the city since the early 90s. Who doesnt like a story with mystery in it . So lets go and see what happens. They might come back from today with the other sites. Reporter he launched his latest expedition in 2012 and invited doug preston to write about it. So you went along because why . I thought steve is never going to find a lost city, thats ridiculous. But who knows . Even if he doesnt find anything, it might make a good story. Reporter but this time, elkins had something no previous expeditions to the area did. Its called lidar, a high tech laser mapping system. Peering through a hole in the bottom of an old cessna sky master, it can scan hundreds of square miles of dense jungle in a matter of days. The problem . It was expensive. This one shows the full scale of the convoy. Reporter enter bill benson, who agreed to foot the 1 million bill, if he could capture the adventure on film. This technology could see the jungle through the jungle canopy and reveal the contours of what might be underneath it. It seemed like a valuable gamble. Reporter one that soon paid off. What the lidar revealed once that jungle canopy was removed shocked everyone. I zoomed in and i went, holy crap. I said this is what looks like rectangular structures. I mean, that is about as linear lines, and thats a right angle. They were either man made or the worlds most intelligent gophers were out there doing things they had never done before. Reporter so what did you think you had found initially . I knew we found a city. An ancient city. That i knew. But what it was beyond that, that was up for the archaeologists to figure out. Reporter that archaeologist was colorado states chris fisher. It sounds like its a pretty big deal. I think it is. Is it like machu picchu . No. But for this area, regionally, i think its very, very important. Reporter he helped artists come up with this rendering of what the city might have looked like. Here you see the interior of the plaza. Reporter but he had to get there on foot to know for sure. Theres a stairway that goes here. Reporter and it took three long years of planning. Just to get into this jungle is extremely dangerous. Once youre there, its thick, thick with poisonous snakes. Reporter the deadliest, a pit viper called the fair delance. Docile enough during the day. But when one slithered into camp under the cover of darkness, it caused an understandable panic. On the team, a jungle warfare expert, who leapt into action. He pinned the snake, but the snake exploded into a fury, of striking everywhere, squirting venom, streams of venom across the night air. Reporter the next morning, the jungle seemed a little less ominous. And the march to the site began. It was like cutting your way through a shag carpet. What wasnt growing was oozing with mud. Lets go on top of this one and work our way back down. Reporter the jungle was so thick, all they could see were leaves, even standing right in front of what chris fisher thought was a pyramid. Thats a pyramid right there in front of you. Where is the pyramid . Youre looking at it. A big lump. Cant say i see a whole lot from here. Thats what it is. Thats a pyramid. Its made out of earth. Reporter there were no stone structures to speak of, just foundations. But the next day, almost by accident, disappointment turned to jubilation. Did you see this . There are inscriptions right here. There are . Yes. Oh, my god. Someone said, hey, wait a minute, theres some weird stones over here. We all came back and the first thing i saw was a jaguar head coming out of the ground, carved in stone, snarling. Whoa, whoa, everybody stop, back up, dont touch anything. Dont clear anything, please. Reporter there at their feet was a trove of artifacts believed to date from the 16th century. The personal belongings of inhabitants who fled the valley as one theory would have it, in an attempt to escape european disease and slavery. It was phenomenal to think that in the 21st century, you could still find Something Like this on the surface of the earth. Reporter some in the academic community, however, are not so easily impressed. We dont go out looking for treasure anymore, we go out looking for knowledge. Reporter rosemary joyce, professor of anthropology at uc berkeley, says an exhibition led by filmmakers wreaks more of Indiana Jones than it does real science. And some 20 other archaeologists agreed. Anybody can make an adventure story, we have no problem with that. But its being portrayed as arknoloar archaeolo archaeology, and its not. Reporter some Indigenous People bristled when the honduran president removed the first artifact. They consider the site sacred and should be left alone. So in the end, what this expedition unearthed was a lot more than just relics. It became a stew of excitement, questions, criticism, and ill health. Maybe youll end up in a hospital like this. Reporter months after leaving the jungle, doug preston noticed a bite from a sand fly that wouldnt heal. So did chris fisher. The National Institutes of health diagnosed it as a frightening parasitic disease. The parasite migrates through the mucus membranes of your mouth and nose and basically eats them away. Your nose and lips fall off, and eventually your face becomes a gigantic open sore. Reporter over the next few months, about half the expedition came down with the early symptoms and had to undergo the painful treatment. Thats a good Helicopter Shot of the overview. Reporter steve and bill were spared, and their documentary about their adventure is now in the final edit. Doug preston, bucking the criticism, titled his book the lost city of the monkey god. As for the site, only a fraction has been excavated and questions linger how or if to go back again. Too dangerous to stay there. Its just too dangerous. Just getting in and out is dangerous. Reporter it would seem the jungle is still fighting to keep its secrets. And almost impenetrable veil making an accounting of whats there difficult at best. That, in the end, may be the most lasting curse of all.

It will take billions to restore the historic buildings, fountains, and other historic sites. Money the city doesnt have. Now romes famous fashion houses are stepping up. Seth doane reports from the recently refurbished spanish step. Reporter across rome, tourists see spectacular monuments while the cashstrapped city sees spectacular expenditures it cannot afford. So rome has drawn up a wish list of monuments to help protect and is asking for help in preserving history. It was hardly a quick power wash. We watched earlier this summer as workers painstakingly scrubbed away years of grime and leveled the steps. There were damaged by time. Reporter the ceo says his company, which has a store down the street, spent more than 1. 5 million refurbishing the 135 baroque steps at the heart of this city of about 3 million. We need to make sure the city is at its best. Reporter american archaeologist car dariu, offers tours of this ancient capital. Its likely no coincidence that they chose to work on something close to a store. Location, location, location. Reporter he says the scale of restoration work that still needs to be done is staggering. It gives you an idea of, number one, why rome can say we have more World Heritage than any place in the world. On the other hand, you can understand they need help. Reporter this place, where Julius Ceasar was killed, requires 1. 5 million in renovation work before it can reopen. This fenced off musoleum needs 10 million. Students were surprised by the state of some monuments. Made me wonder whats happening to these sites. Reporter thats where claudio preshy comes in. 21 Million Euros for this. 16. 6 Million Euros for that. Hes romes superintendent for Culture Heritage and drew up a very big 500 billion wish list of 100 monuments to fix. Its just the beginning. We have 574 archaeological areas. We have 400 fountains. We have 900 monuments. Reporter theyve had some success. Todds paid to restore the coliseum and fendy cleaned up the treby fountain. As this debt ridden city asks corporations, individuals and other countries to subsidize public restoration work. Is there a danger with all of this . Do you run the risk of having the xyz companies, yxy monuments . You wont see any banners on these sites. The state and city, theyre very much concerned about preserving the integrity of these sites, and not to commercialize them. Reporter italy tweaked its tax laws to encourage this sort of preservation work and the city of rome is trying to make the case this is shared cultural scientists noticed that the annual migration of swaps from arctic russia to europe has taken a dive. One conservationist has taken to the skies to find out why. Jonathan vigliotti reports. Reporter europes majestic swans have an unlikely new copilot. 41yearold sasha dench with the help of a motorized paraglider, is joining their seasonal migration south. Its a 4,000 mile journey that begins in the remote feeding grounds of Russias Arctic north and ends all the way in england. The mechanical wings are part of a woeld effort to save the endangered species from the growing threat below. Hundreds are illegally shot out of the sky each year. And the land they breed in is being built on. Hi, sasha. Hello. Reporter we spoke with sasha via skype during the first leg of her expedition in the russian tundra. Did it ever occur to carry out this research on foot or a car . Its not possible. The only people up there are reindeer breeders who use sleds and reindeer. Reporter and its those reindeer breeders with fishermen and farmers shes come this way to meet, to speak with and share the story of the swans decline. They want to know, so im able to tell them all the data where we know the swans are declining and theyre really interested in that. Reporter at 35 miles an hour, sasha can fly just as fast as her feathered subjects. But at that rate, the trip will take three months. When the birds rest, so does she, often staying with locals along the way. I have to sleep on reindeer skins and i woke up and i dont know if it was a reaction, but i woke one a massive, puffy face. Reporter if her flight sounds familiar, thats because it is. In the 1996 movie fly away home inspired by a true story, a young lady takes to the sky to save an abandoned flock of geese.
