hillary, hickory, linden. they're in between the larger streets. at this second -- at the hearing, the decision at the hearing was -- sorry. hold on for a second. the second denial of my request to remove the trees stated they could not be replaced if removed. this was disturbing to me because we have always had trees on our block. when i first moved in there in 1987, there were trees that lined the block. there were a dozen of them. and in january and february the whole block was blooming bright yellow. those trees have a short live span and they've died and there's four trees left on our block that are on their last legs and they need to be removed and replaced. if you go up a block over to lilly street, it's the same sidewalk with and they've got cherry trees -- >> can you speak into the microphone. thank you. >> on the narrow street next to our street, there are trees, small trees planted up and down the street and also sidewalk gardens. our requests to do the same have been denied for some reason. it was by city and friends there before us. we

he went by the name old hickory. tough as old hickory wood. his second nickname, you won't believe this, sharp knife. what is andrew jackson's story? he was born in 1767 in north carolina. he was born, and his parents died at an early age, so he was an orphan raised with no parental restraint. as a young boy, he got into brawls and fights. he wasn't all that interested in learning or reading. jackson was nine years old at the time of the american revolution. you will see him right there in the middle. at age 13 he joined the militia as a messenger. at one point, he ran into a british officer, and the officer told him, clean my boots. he said, i ain't cleaning your boots. the officer slashed young andy, leaving a permanent scar on his left hand and the left side of his head. jackson went on to help found the state of tennessee. insulted his wife. the only president in united states history has ever killed a man, that's andrew jackson. he joins the military and fights the creek indians in 1814. fights the seminole indians and -- it was a spectac

potter's at 471 hickory. i support the removal and replacement of those trees. for all the reasons mr. potter gave. i'm not going to reiterate those. i would like to call board's attention. i came here prepared and rather fired up to call to the board's attention the inconsistency between the rules as given by the bureau of urban forestry and what is shown in the findings of the denial that mr. potter is appealing. as you know, they have claimed venues including specifically denial that the treat trees are not replaceable due to current withstandings and that sin consistent with i found. i asked the bureau of urban forestry can you send me the standards and the woman said yes, here are the planting orders. >> overhead, please. >> the implication here is this is out-of-date. i was told it was current. i'm now even more upset that i'm spending time worrying about something that is not current. this shows a 6'6" sidewalk that includes the curb, the sidewalk at 477 is 6'7" inches. it meets the standard of the diagram from the order and shows this exact scenario. you

brock long's family lives in hickory, north carolina and he's accused of commuting home on weekends in a government car for the past year and improperly using motorcades for those commutes. also, getting hotel rooms for staff. he needed authorization and the inspector general for the department of homeland security that oversees fema warned him last fall that those taxpayer- funded trips were illegal. >>> today, there will be increased police presence at livermore high school after a threatening note was discovered. the school district said two students found a handwritten note in a bathroom and turned it over to administrators. due to the nature of the threat, the livermore police department was notified. in an email, the principal said extra police presence is precautionary. >>> the time is 4:06. a sacramento county sheriff's deputies is dead and another heard after a shooting inside an auto parts store. it happened yesterday at the pep boys auto shop in rancho cordova, 15 miles east of sacramento. investigators said the deputies were called to the store because of a fight inside inv

"after the assault, i wasn't sure what had actually happened but the pain spoke volumes. the shame was overwhelming. self—doubt and confusion kept me from turning to my family or friends as i normally did. i felt completely alone, unable to trust anyone, including myself." we can speak now to a woman who says she was attacked by the actor 40 years ago. victoria valentino was in court yesterday to watch him being sentenced. thank you for talking to others, how did it feel when you saw him being punished? it was very cathartic. i think we were all extraordinaril

my name's jeff herman and i'm from hickory, north carolina. i started in 1993.hing i decided i wanted to do. it's kind of a following yourdream thing. what is it about this festival that makes it so special? i believe it is one of the biggest in the world. to be part of that is overwhelming. i think it'sjust the genre of the songs. from country and western to rock and roll. it touches everybody. established back in 2004, the festival draws in elvis wannabes from around the world. the organiser peter phillips is very proud of that success. every year, i say it can't get any bigger, and every year it does. why is it so popular, do you think? the honest answer is, i don't know! i think it is probably because it is the most ridiculous place in the world to put an elvis festival. porthcawl has no connection to elvis. 40,000 people can hardly fit in the town. that is probably why it works. speaking to the elvis fans, they like the fact that elvis overwhelms the town. i think it is bonkers, but it is good fun. absolutely. we are down here a lot. we enjoy it. some of th

he should be mercifully like a muddy hickory in a hurricane. he was stubborn though. of course he was. an easier man would not accomplishment when he did in his years. the preoccupation of stockbrokers, stockholders, newspaper editors and envious citizens not only new york city but across the country. how much was the old man worth and who would get the money? his last will and testament had been kept secret. the contents unknown even to the father-in-law. the roundabout men were nervous. the commodore was just stubborn enough, just crazy enough, just unpredictable enough to do something outrageous like leave all of the money to his team of six. he led the horses in a way that he loved hardly anything or anyone else. and why wouldn't he love them? they pleased him. they were gorgeous and obedient. they never asked for anything and they never let him down. she would not be surprised if he left his two sons only enough money to sustain the more compelling them to work as hard as he has done if they wanted to achieve as much. mr. vanderbilts, every a reporter called. wha

then the mountain communities of north carolina, asheville, hickory. those locations also expected to get a lot of rain in a short period of time. that could trigger landslides. this is the cape fear river at fayetteville, currently at 26 feet. it's expected to jump 40 feet, up to 62 1/2 feet, by the time that crests later into the week, monday or tuesday. again, mart in, you have 20 rivr gauges expected to reach flood stage in the next several days. >> reporter: this is going to be a real serious problem for many, many communities. it's not even the rivers that maybe people know. there are a lot of waterways they never thought of that could turn into raging monsters in a matter of hours. allison chinchar, thank you for that. we'll monitor the weather, the rain, and everything else here in north carolina and south carolina as we head into what's going to be a dark and frightening night for many residents. ana? >> martin, we're sending our best to everyone in the carolinas, hoping everyone stays safe. thank you. there are ways to donate, give blood, and

charlotte, north carolina, and even as you head into those mountains areas, places like asheville, hickory, those locations will start to get a lot of that heavy rain. one thing to keep in mind, some of those mountainous regions, you have not only flooding and flash flooding but also landslides, because topography will start to come into play for areas that are high in elevation. keep that in mind, as the rain shifts to the west, you'll encounter other problems that we really haven't seen yet, one of which is river flooding. right now we have six rivers at major flood stage and five at moderate flood stage. but take a look, when we push this out a few days, look at how many more rivers jump to major flood stage and moderate flood stage. this is because rivers, createk and streams take time. not only do you have to worry about the rain that came down directly over the rivers, but all of it that went into people's yards and roadways. it flows somewhere, eventually it will end up in the rivers, streams, and creeks, but it takes time. they're not going to crest until tuesday or even wednesday

and that's a trip to his home in hickory. long denies any wrongdoing. >> if i made mistakes in the way the program was run, doing something and not unethical is not part of my dna. >> the inspector general is looking out and they use fema vehicles to travel back and forth to his homes in gainesville florida. while the dhs secretary is treating this in various seriously. jpmorgan chase ceo jamie dimon are picking at each other. and that's just as tough but smarter. he's not running for president and should not have made those remarks. and there is a new democratic party challenge, and comes from and make sure to look at the recommendation on brett kavanaugh. the news is dropping late this afternoon. chief congressional correspondent mike emanuel is on capitol hill with details although there are not many. >> the issue is, senior staffers are not aware of the details. california democratic senator dianne feinstein and that individual declined confidentiality order to come forward and pressed the matter further. i have honored t

even when you start going into the higher elevations, places like asheville, hickory, those places further up in elevation, the main concern there, martin, is not only do you have the threat for flooding but the elevation will play a role in the potential for landslides as well. >> reporter: allison, that's what the governor of north carolina was talking about. they feared that those landslides could begin as early as tonight. allison chinchar, thank you very much. amazing to believe that the storm is slower than a person can work. the hurricane danger has passed. but what's coming afterward may impact far more lives. cnn's nick watt is on the sands in north myrtle beach, south carolina. some people are returning and relieved by what they found. >> reporter: yeah, since we last spoke, martin, the wind has picked up. the rain is a lot heavier. i've spoken to somebody else who has just returned, he lives on the next block beyond where we are. he said, listen, this place will flood at the drop of a hat. the problem here, it's actually from both sides. we can get the storm surge and the surf f

forth between washington and the fema headquarters and his home in, coincidentally, north carolina, hickory, north carolina. not only has he been going back and forth, but he's been bringing a crew of fema staff with him, several suvs worth of staffers driving him back and forth, a 400-mile trip back and forth, and he was warned not to do that, that this is against the law, it is illegal. this is maybe the most stunning detail of the story so far, is that after he was warned not to travel with fema staff back to his house, the inspector general at the department of homeland security had brock long tail. he was put under surveillance and they followed him back and forth between his headquarters in d.c. and his home. the inspector general has briefed top white house officials, and this was in just days ago as hurricane florence was barrelling toward the u.s., and ultimately john kelly was the one who said, we have to wait for this report, brock long has denied any wrong doing, there's no final report, and there's a major storm coming at north carolina and south carolina right now. so we will

long's home in hickory, north carolina, at taxpayers expense.c news i am not focused on this investigation. i am fully focused on those impacted by hurricane florence as you just saw from gadi, that response continues today. let me bring in "politico" reporter daniel litman who first broke news of this inspector general investigation. how significant is this inquiry, and how li-- likely are federal prosecutors to take it on? >> they're still waiting for that inspector general's report. i think prosecutors are looking at as many as six laws that brock long may have violated. if he's charged and is found guilty or pleads guilty, he may have to serve some time or pay a big fine. it's kind of normal for a trump administration top official to face investigations, but you don't usually see it involve a criminal element. >> i want to play how long is justifying the way he used these government vehicles. here's what he said to chuck todd on meet the press over the weekend. >> i have a very critical and important role to make sure that this government wo
