and her son john. that is postwar in his people guard uniform. he joined the papal guard after escaping to europe before he was captured. she moved in to washington d.c. to their town house which they acquired in 1853 and set it up as a boarding house in washington for her, john, and her daughter and rented out several rooms. st. louis this today as a restaurant. the chinese section of town. prior to this it was the rock and roll. in 40 years have never been able to get on top of that first floor. the owners will not allow anyone up there. we have to see what it looks like. next slide. . and harold arrive at midnight. they pick up a spencer carving. john wilkes booth had a broken leg at this stage. he had to ride with his left leg free. he couldn't put it in the stirrup because it would cause great pain. he had to hold on with his hands but harold picked up a spencer and john wilkes booth picked up the an oculus from earlier in the day. earlier that day. had gone to the house in washington, and asked her to take it to the house and give it to pul

was a teenager, and, so i sort of know that john's family, struggled with sarah's mental health, john struggled with mental health, and, then, betsie had a cousin who was really raised with her, a sister, rebecca, who also at the end of her life, described herself as having john lunatic, and, seems to fear -- today you would call it a persecution complex and seems to see people all around her who are conspiring against her and, i'm interested in the history of mental health and so to see that in the 18th century was the -- surprising to me and the family stories led me a lot of different direction and i never knew, the duty of biography is you have to follow the story where it goes, and so i got taken to a lot of interesting places. yes. >> lisa. >> [inaudible]. >> i could never find anything, any information about it, i wonder if you uncovered anything new. >> joseph ashburn is such a mystery i could not find any clear reference to that he ashburn family on the eastern seaboard of the u.s. and, so i just don't know. and i think at some point, as these genealogical databases become ri

john? >> and, susan, hours and hours, i would assume, of videotapes from surveillance cameras all around times square. what have they released about the information they've gleaned so far? what are the big questions we're waiting to have answered? >> reporter: one of the things they're talking about is, of course, they have images that they were able to capture from surveillance cameras. as you know there are thousands of them around new york city. and these images show that nissan path finder just as it was coming down the strip near times square and turned off on to west 45th street. they did not get it parking, but they did see it making that turn. so you also, those videos show how crowded it was at the time. people were going to the theater. people were going to dinner at that time. it was about 6:30 in the ev evening. also police tell us they have isolated another surveillance camera image that shows a man they describe as white an in his 40s who shortly after that car would have pull

john quincy adams had the same impression.ey were looking over a map and jackson exploded and went on in a raving rant about how despicable a secretary of treasury was. adams was dumbfounded. he thought, this is a man who does not understand the game. >> again, henry clay ran for president five times. you really want to say, why did he not give it up? wasn't there a message there for a while? do you have any sense of why he did not give it up? he had been speaker of the house. he had been in the united states senate for a long time. >> well, he came very close in 1844. there is some evidence that he should have won that election. >> that was the polk election? >> yes. new york state had a great deal of election fraud in that election. newly arrived immigrants voted as well as a large number of deceased people. if he had taken in new york he would have won the election. it was very close in new york. i think he thought that in 1848, the whigs had a very good chance. he was right, because the person who won the nomination won th

how did you and stephen and john all get together and do this? >> well, discovery wanted to do a new and exciting show on cosmology. and so we sat around the table for a while and thought who best to do it. and there isn't a bigger name than stephen hawking. so it was a very simple, very, very short list of who we wanted to work with. and then we pitched it to him. and you may know that stephen takes quite a while to respond to questions. so we gave him our pitch, showed him the tape, and we had to wait a while. but thankfully the answer was yes, i'd love to do it. so that's how it got going. >> larry: john, are you surprised at the reaction it has gotten around the world? >> no, i'm not, because, you know, professor hawking is this distinguished academic, as we've said. but also, he wants to bring science to a new generation, to people around the world. and he is prepared -- everything he says of course is immaculately scientifically sourced. but he wants to entertain people. and by entertaining them, he wants to interest them in science. you kn

it will be about john f. kennedy. i think kennedy represented an entire generation of americans who were -- the first lieutenant in the world war ii. it was the greatest generation and that whole generation was coming into its own in the 1960s. john f. kennedy was a charming, effervescent person for that generation. when he was cut down so young, it was a slap simply not against the man but an entire generation. i think that is very important to keep in mind. the second reason i think that he's had such an iconic presence in american public life, even to this day, is that he learned on the job. if you look at what john kennedy was planning to do before he got elected and compare to what he was doing in 1963, just before he died, you can see a man who sort of shared the learning process of the american people and worked them towards a different country. we don't have a lot of time but the best example is on civil rights. john kennedy on civil rights was not progressive in 1960. i would argue that richard nixon, the vic

one is that john ross was a member of the masonic lodge and betsy and john did to at least a little workor the lodge and in a sonic symbolism, the five pointed star has meaning. and so, it could be that they have occasion to make templates for masonic goods, she learned that way. there is also a pennsylvania german tradition of paper cutting -- i'm going to butcher this -- something like that. some curators have said through betsy and her contacts in the city came to know some of the tech exec paper cutting inland eat-in suggests that this is a period that geometry is becoming an increasingly important part of the school curriculum. so perhaps betsy would've come to know something about folding stars and symmetry like that through her education at school. so those are the three series that i have so far. but it's interesting, you know, maybe any flag maker they would've talked to could have done the same thing. i don't know why she has a particular little gimmick at hand. it's quite the thing of a mention of the top of the talk. i spent some time with the family and they cannot do it, yo

john andrews of virginia, not as -- john randolph of virginia, not as well known today, but probably the most famous person in the house. he was one of the people who was quite disturbed that these youngsters a sort of took over the house. >> let's stop there and talk about the two duels he was involved in. humphrey marshall? who was he? and john randolph looks like he has character. >> very much so. >> explain the dual thing. -- duel lane. >> it was usually an issue of honor. reputation would be the modern equivalent. if you allow yourself to be consulted and did not defend -- in salted -- insulted and did not attend -- defend yourself, then you would be pushed around for the rest of your life. clay, one of the things that he said he was against, is that young men need to fight a duel just to show that they will do it. once they have demonstrated that they will do it, people will probably not try to push them around as much. humphrey marshall was a senior person in the kentucky legislature group tried to -- and he was a federalist as well. clay was very much a jeffersonian republica

there is me, eric cantor, john skinner, and rush limbaugh -- john boehner and rush limbaugh.a called today to give me his regards. call from his doctor's office in costa rica. now we know who listens to rush into the room. speaking of health care, you have to admit that some of the provisions in a bad bill were untenable to republican leadership. you had to know the john boehner was never going to stand for the tax on tanning beds. i get it. they passed the bill. president barack obama feels he has some momentum going. now he is trying to co op some of our initiatives. the one that surprised me was his proposal for offshore drilling. i never thought he understood the concept. not the drilling part, but for a guy who walks on water, i thought the whole concept of offshore would be difficult to understand. i know you think republicans would be discouraged by all of this, but i am really not. i travel around the country to town hall meetings and tea parties, and i am inspired. i was here for the 9/12 rally on the national mall. i had a chance to speak there. i know that this cou

look, i feel for john. you know, we were on the road together and obviously had a hard fought battle, and you learn, politics is neither. this year i've experienced my share of disappointments. for example, i had my heart set on the nobel prize for physics. but you can't been them all. speaking of this, a few weeks ago, i was able to throw out the first pitch at the nationals game. and i don't know if you saw it, but i threw it a little high and a little outside. this is how fox news covered it. president panders to extreme left wing of batter's box. on the other hand, msnbc had a different take. president pitches no-hitter. and then cnn want a different way altogether. >> he was just asking, how can you get a volcano in iceland? isn't it -- when you think of the volcano, you think of like hawaii and long words like that. you don't think of iceland. you think it's too cold to have a volcano there. >> i guess that's why they're the most trusted name in news. look, i have a republican teags forgiving cabble a

out to john mcneill, wkzo news radio kalamazoo, john, i understand that now we've got tire tread marksn the field where a neighbor says she sees a pickup truck, a crew cab pickup truck with a white male crouched beside it around 7:00 a.m. that morning. catty-corner to the family home. do you know about the treadmarks? >> i would assume that they've taken molds or plaster casts of those tracks and they're probably flew them to virginia, too, to see if they could match them up with the tires that are on the truck right now. that would be my assumption. it depends on the quality of the treadmarks that were left, of course, and whether or not they can match them up. >> what do you know, ellie? >> nancy, actually, in that search warrant that we obtained yesterday, police said that they had taken pictures of the tread on doug stewart's truck in virginia, but they wanted the physical tire itself to match that to those treadmarks they found at the scene. >> everybody, we are taking your calls live. to therese mccomb, this is venus stewart's mother, miss mccomb, what are police telling you? i k

. >> but mark crist, the one who won the seat john murtha held for many years and john mccake carried over barack obama. -- mccain carried over barack obama. the health care bill, he said he opposed that and some of the economic -- the bank bailout for example. doesn't that give you some concerns about your agenda and message? >> no. he ran like many of our members of congress as an independent-minded democrat. there are some issues where he agrees with the president, there are some issues where he will disagree with the president. that's true of a lot of our members as well. when it comes to the health care bill, he was very much against repeal. his republican opponents said let's relitigate this, let's start from scratch. mark said let's work with the bill we have, improve it as we move along. and although the republicans tried to make a big deal about that, it fell flat. in terms of some of the other issues, he reflected the district just as jack had. jack described himself as a pro-life, pro-gun democrat. + mark crist took the same position. so the real difference here is that mar

and now to reporter john psarapolous in athens. john, we also talked to you yesterday. you were there today watching what has happened throughout the city. how much different from the deadly riots of yesterday? >> >> well, it was in short an anti-climax. the peaceful part of the ral that took place was only a couple thousand people strong in my estimation. this throng came around parliament at the time when the austerity measures were being voted. their banners were up and their flags were flying but there wasn't the usual drum beating and the usual amplified music and slogan shouting that attends these rallies. it was low-key, sober, chastened after the death yesterday of three people, one of hmm was four months pregnant. people here are counting it as four deaths. the violence in terms of what happens what took place later on separately in streets around the parliament square were vastly reduced in scale and in intensity from yesterday. so, again, while there is a hard core afternoonar kis group bent on wreaking destruction with every given opportunity, with every ral

with regards to whether it was john paulson or john doe, the bank that was on the other end of that trade actually, they tried to upgrade that investment but putting it at 14 of their own mortgages to troy to uprate it which they would be and they ended downgraded it which they didn't know. so the government case disclosed that john paulson was on the other end is without merit. this is more of political football. would you agree with that? >> well, i mean, as i said before, the fact that paulson was the other side is to me not an issue. and for that to be made a part of the issue really isn't where the potential thought i believe where it would lie. the problem potentially is this. when the deal is put together, and, yes, they were on the other side but there was a management team that signed off on the securities and that was five different parties including jp morgan and merrill lynch and they were the selectors and put on the materials on the selectors. paulson was also a selector. and he was specifically not put on the marketing material. so the question is, would this management gro
