next to him here is a man named ambrose burnside. ambrose burnside was a politician who became a general. now, for those of you with si sideburns, your facial hair comes from this guy's mutt muttonchops. burnside, you swap the two names around and you get sideburns. now you know the history of your facial hair. he was a failure as a military commander. he sent wave after wave of union soldiers into an entrenched confederate line and lost thousands and thousands of soldiers in december 1862. it was to terrible an assault he offered to lead the next charge i guess knowing that he'd be killed in it. and his subordinates talked him out of doing such a rash thing. after this failure in the field lincoln decided, i can't leave him in command any more, i'm going to move him out to ohio. and hopefully in ohio he won't have any major battles that he has to deal with and he can take charge of a civilian area. so in the spring of 1863 ambrose burnside was in charge of the department of the ohio, which included ohio, indiana, parts of kentucky,

most often his driver was ambrose jones, somebody in his tight inner circle, somebody he trusted.at was in somebody else's name. a big, black suv. we later found out had a hidden compartment. but he went in and picked it up, brought it back to rockford where he was away from where he slept or did his business. any time one of drug house was out of drugs, whoever was working would use the nextel phones to inform him that he needed more product. >> and then you would see duck driven by ambrose over in the escalade to the chestnut street house, pick up a pack, go to drug house, drop it off, pick up the money and then take off. >> it was interesting and disturbing at the same time what the customer base was. there were people from all walks of life. people who looked like they had just gotten off work at 5:00 and stopped off at the heroin house to get their drug fix. people on their way to becoming heroin addicts. young people, teenagers, people from all walks of life. >> you know, many times your victims are not the best citizens themselves. but they're still a victim. they're taking

gnat ambrose was not allowed on the roller coaster because of his size. park workers told him that he couldn't ride the volcano because of safety reasons. he weighed 300 pounds. he said he was embarrassed by that incident so he decided to make some serious changes. he lost more than 100 pounds and guess what? he went on that roller coaster this past weekend. good for him. bet he feels a lot better, healthier and he had a lot of fun i'm sure. >>it's mazing what it takes to kick start people, that moment where you just decide i'm going to change. >>> we said we needed rain. we had two days of it. >> some spots have had two inches of rain. some areas have only had half an inch south and east. we'll take it. we've been running into a minor drought since the beginning of the year. certainly this is helping and we'll get some more showers and storms in spots this afternoon and slightly -- slight chance we'll get some tomorrow. here's a look at the day planner for the rest of this tuesday. we have partly to mostly cloudy conditions. mid-70s coming up the next fe

his book was about san francisco journalist ambrose beers who disappeared during the mexican revolution. the movie starred jane fonda. here's a clip from the documentary "crossing borders" from kqed's archives. >> i arrived in mexico city when i was 15 years old after having been raised abroad in south america and the united states with an idea of mexico and of mexico city. and i wanted to confront that imagination of the city and of the country with the reality. and out of despairties, out of the deep chasms of my reality, my novels were born. >> belva: and a final program note. we're off next friday for the memorial day holiday. tune in the following week, june 1st, for our election special leading up to the june 5th primary. we'll see you then. i'm belva davis. good night.

. >>> people have all sorts of reasons for wanting to lose weight and nate ambrose of virginia had aincentive. he simply wanted to ride a roller coaster. he used to weigh 300 pounds and told he was too heavy to get on a roller coaster at kings dominion because he was too big. he lost 109 pounds in nine months and this time they let him on the road. >>> we are tracking a number of stories for you at this hour, including what's happening overseas. why a truck shipment from nato is is now sit ising idle in pakistan. >>> and more on this, a plastic surgeon at johns hopkins who's note a one-trip pony, the hidden talent he's now set to unleash. details on that coming up in just a bit. >>> and we'll have a mix of some sun and clouds today, but some more showers are on the way. i'm going to tell you when those move in coming up. reporter: congestion is really starting to pick up here on 695 and bel aire road. i'll let you know how the tunnels and the jfx look coming up in my abc 2 news time saver traffic report. you're watching "good morning maryland." ♪ [ male announcer ] for our families..

from hatteras inlet, general ambrose burnside would conduct an expedition into eastern north carolina with, according to burnside, because of the good information he received from an african-american operative spy, he takes roanoke island in february of '62 with little or no problems. his next objective is fort macon. but on his expedition to take fort macon he goes into newborn, north carolina, one of the most populous cities in south at that time. called the athens of the south. one of the most progressive. had a rather relatively large for a southern city its size, african descent population. about 13% of the population was free -- i should say free population. the african population was 50%. free population was 13% there in newburn. and when burnside gets there, he finds a very friendly population. not only of the enslaved people but the free persons and the stanley family, john caruthers stanley is very wealthy as well. he finds a very friendly population. he appoints vincent collier as the head of refugees and the poor people that are coming in. and collier would almost immediat

>> well, late historian steven ambrose once told me abandon chronology at your own peril. and so i realized events happened day by day, there's no, well, this is today. so, you get in a danger if you start going -- switching around dates, so writingwise i try to stay chronological because t.r. lived his life chronologically, then i would get the dates of all the places that he stayed which i put as an appendix. so, the date he declared something, i have that date. so, i've got t.r.'s biography and the dates of all these places and i make sure they intersect properly. you know enough about politics, you don't create anever glades national park or a grand canyon if there was no fight or something. who was the champion that got the winning results. who is the great grand canyon champion, who was the champion of yosemite, et cetera, and i try to bring them into the story. i'm dealing with two timelines and then a cast of characters. >> but where do you put it? is it on cards? is it on sheets of paper? on file? >> sheets of paper. notebook after notebook. not cards but notebook

so in the spring of 1863 ambrose burnside was in charge of the department of ohio which included ohio, indiana, parts of kentucky and other areas. he looked around him and saw many copperheads, people who opposed the war, people who opposed emancipation and spoke out against lincoln and heish autoed a military order, and i will read you a little bit of it in april 1863. it is general orders number 38. listen to what he does and see if you have any reaction to it. the habit of declaring sympathies for the enemy will not be allowed in this department. persons committing such offenses will be at once arrested and with a view to being tried as above stated, that is with the military commission or sent beyond the lines into the lines of their friends. people who smeek out or sympathize with the enemy will be tried by military commission or sent, banished into the confederacy. it must be distinctly understood that treason expressed or implied will not be tolerated in this department. listen again. it must be distinctly understood that treason expressed or implied will not be tolerated in th

ambrose jones and the suv, and duck, we later learned, in a taxi.ig was up, so to speak, and it was time for us to start making arrests, which is what we did on september 14th. >> the leader of this conspiracy, darrell davis, received a 42-year sentence. and that trickled down to the other members of the conspiracy, like bradford dotson receiving a 35-year sentence after trial. 42 years for darrell "duck" davis is a life sentence. he is going to be an old man when he gets out. and when a group like titanic stones get to the point where they are that organized and are terrorizing the the streets, you're left with no choice, law enforcement is left with no choice but to take them off. he was simply too dangerous and ordered too many violent acts to leave out on the street. >> every day that the phone would ring or i would hear siren, i thought, okay, that someone was going to tell me, come identify your son. because that was definitely the path that he was going down. i could have been a better parent. i know i'm a better person. i've proven i'm a bet

ken ambrose usually shies away from the spotlight. this is the first time he's allowed tv cameras in the cockpit as he flew a scientific mission for nasa, measuring ozone and greenhouse gases. but science is just one component of h211's mission. >> there are some critics who say, wait a minute, this is just a well-connected, well-heeled, well-financed group of people flying their private jets in and out of the government-run facility. >> i don't think we're doing anything all that unusual. we're willing to do it, willing to pay for it. >> reporter: pay they do. according to this agreement with nasa, h211 shells out at least $113,000 a month, one-third more rent than most other airports. why is it so important for h211 to be here at nasa? >> good question. it's expensive but proximate. >> reporter: that's the rub. google headquarters blocks away from moffat field, raising questions about whether this entire agreement isn't just a special favor by government for a well-heeled and well-connected company to park private planes next door t

ambrose was embarrassed and decided to make some changes. he lost 105-pounds over nine months. at park, he was a new man and he rode that roller coaster. >> great for him. >>> coming up, three local cities make the top ten list of the nation's most red. also ahead, a man shopping at wal-mart bends down to pick up what he thought was a stick until it bit him in the hand. >>> but up next, 9 wants you to know about a disturbing trend among teens. our cameras were there when police busted up another underage drinking party. this time we head to the woods. if you have copd like i do, you know how hard it can be to breathe and what that feels like. copd includes chronic bronchitis and emphysema. spiriva helps control my copd symptoms by keeping my airways open a full 24 hours. plus, it reduces copd flare-ups. spiriva is the only once-daily inhaled copd maintenance treatment that does both. and it's steroid-free. spiriva does not replace fast-acting inhalers for sudden symptoms. tell your doctor if you have kidney problems, glaucoma, trouble urinating, or an enlarged prostate. these m

nate ambrose weighed over 300 pounds. his favorite roller coaster because the harness wouldn't fit him. he started dieting and exercising, lost 100 pounds. they should let him ride that roller coaster for free forever. >> whatever it takes to motivate you. are we out of time? it was a fun start. this is "early start the news from a to zarks." i'm ali velshi. >> and i'm zoraida sambolin. >>> good morning, i'm brooke baldwin in for soledad o'brien. coming up here on "early start," criminal charges, rebekah brooks big fallout for her alleged role in the uk hacking scandal. new details coming in. heads up here, new calls for stricter rules on wall street. all of this after jpmorgan's $2 billion trading disaster. the bank's ceo facing the shareholder this is morning, we're all over that. >>> plus, band halt. new fallout for the florida a&m marching band, really a symbol of this school in florida, after this drum major was hazed to death after a game. we're going to speak to a former band member who stood up to the culture of h

dhs, how many times i called his caseworker, her supervisors, their supervisors, all the way up to ambroseeir -- what should be their human side to look out for khalil. and at least check on him and make sure he was okay. but to no avail. nobody wanted to do any more than they were supposed to do. >> let me ask you this. was it obvious just to the naked eye when you would get khalil back, did you see sdars? when you hear from this medical examiner, it took 61 minutes to just actually log all the scars, the bones protruding on his body. was it obvious to you he wasn't taken care of? >> well, that's the thing. i got khalil when he was a week old. and i haven't seen him any more -- i'm sorry, after march 2009. the last time i saw him was at his funeral. i did not know anything about the extended abuse, but there was one visit he came home and he pointed out a scratch on his nose. we deduced it was something that happened maybe while playing with maya, his younger sister. and we left it at that. because at the time, we had no idea about their history, his parents' history. >> you had no idea.

stephen ambrose, historian who was there at the time. we didn't know each other that well but he pounded me on the back and said that is the phrase. if you don't write that i will. it took me a while longer but i stuck with it. i used in commencement addresses and civic lectures and people began to say including my editor some members of my family, might be going too far. my ultimate wine that is my story and i'm sticking to it. it is now part of the language. has nothing to do with the fact that i claimed the phrase but everything to do with people taking a look at that generation and realizing how many achievements they were able to get on the board and to improve our lives. wasn't a perfect generation because members of that generation also resisted the civil-rights movement for example or launch the vietnam war. taken as a whole with a rise of women and the participation of all the parts of that generation including african-americans i think it is the greatest generation. >> host: how did you find all these people such as margaret? >
