A Department of Homeland Security officials said Friday's ruling ignored
President Trump's legal authority and undermines the integrity of the
immigration system. The CDC is ordering staffers to return to
the office in two weeks, according to a CNBC report.

The agency's new Chief operating Officer, Linda Chapman, notified employees
in an email. It read, in part, we are taking
necessary steps to restore our workplace and will return to
regular on site operations no later than Monday, September fifteenth.
For employees whose workspace remain impacted by the shooting, including
physical damage from the gunman's attack, the CDC will provide

(01:05):
alternative space on its campus this Labor Day weekend. Experts
are warning American workers of a trend toward a so
called infinite work day, Scott Carr, explains.

Speaker 2 (01:15):
Researcher at the University of Virginia Live Klot says what
he calls the infinite work day is often a result

as humans look to colonize space, researchers have come up
with a new method to perform CPR during weightlessness. They
say automatic chess compressions using a mechanical piston will likely
be more effective than emergency protocols now in place for
the International Space Station. Astronauts are currently taught a handstand
method of CPR, in which they brace their legs against

(02:27):
a wall and perform a handstand on the patient's chest
in weightlessness. It's been the only way to create enough
pressure for chest compressions. The study's lead researcher says using
a new type of automatic chess compression device is the
only method that meets international guidelines to keep blood flowing
to the brain in a real life medical emergency in space.

heart related health events were lowered by eighteen percent among

of the most aggressive cancers in cats. KCRA and Sacramento SINS.
Twenty cats were treated during the clinical trial, and seven
of them showed a response to the treatment. One cat,
named Jack, who was given only six weeks to live,
