Is The NoMad's $26 Brunch Chicken Sandwich Worth It?
Brunch menus to do your weekend right.
The NoMad, Daniel Humm's new-ish semi-casual-but-still-not-cheap spot in the NoMad hotel cooks a mean chicken. There's no question about that. Stuffed with brioche and truffles, injected with liquid foie gras, roasted until burnished and crisp, it's one of the finest chickens we've had anywhere. It also costs $79.
So when I heard that The NoMad was offering a sandwiched version of this same chicken—foie gras, truffles, brioche, and all—on their brunch menu for only $26, I suddenly thought to myself, hey, now I can finally afford to eat Daniel Humm's roast chicken whenever the mood strikes, before my line of thought stopped with a big mental record-scratch: wait a minute. That's a $26 chicken sandwich. Twenty-Six-Dollars. For a chicken sandwich. I know prices have been steadily rising, but are we ready for the era of the $26 sandwich? Could it possibly be worth the price?
I saw it as my duty to find out.
As I stepped out of the subway in the Flatiron District and started walking towards The NoMad, the irony of passing a crowded McDonald's with a window display advertising Hot'n Spicy McChicken Sandwiches for only a buck struck me as humorous. While we waited in the NoMad's gorgeous lobby for our table, the old question about whether you'd rather have fifty $1 prostitutes or one $50 prostitute flashed through my mind. I distracted my wife from her book long enough to ask her: Could a single chicken sandwich from The NoMad be worth 26 Hot'n Spicy McChickens?
As she often does when I ask her deep philosophical questions of this nature, she rolled her eyes and looked back down at her book. Obviously not born to be a deep thinker, I muttered under my breath.
We were finally shown to our table in the center of the airy, light-filled atrium, flanked by hotel guests and New Yorkers alike, digging into giant ricotta-stuffed pancakes and wonderfully luscious looking quiches that quivered like custard. When you glance at the menu, you can't help but see that sandwich. It sits in a box set apart from the rest of the menu, paired with Le Poulet, their custom-brewed beer designed to go with the roast chicken at dinner.
Before ordering, I asked our server if it indeed was the same chicken that they serve at night.
"It's the same chicken from an Amish farm, but the sandwich is breast meat only, and it's not roasted the same way. Instead of roasted skin, you get a little side salad with crispy pieces of skin on top."
"Ah, so no brioche and truffle stuffing between the skin and the meat like with the roast?"
"No, sir, unfortunately not. We order the chicken breasts specifically for the sandwich, so we don't start with whole birds here. But the breast meat is injected with foie gras, so that flavor penetrates, and there is a truffle spread on the freshly baked brioche."
Good enough for me. I ordered the sandwich, while my wife ordered one of those awesome looking quiches, along with a side order of fries. You can't not order fries when they're in the hands of a talented chef.
I sat there, sipping my Michelada ($15) as we waited, doing a bit of pointless mental math. From my hazy memories of McChicken sandwiches (I believe I've only ever had them mildly hungover), the patties are deep fried, and are pretty small—about 3 ounces, say, with about 2 ounces of actual chicken (in recombined matter form) in an ounce of fried crust.. There's a small handful of shredded iceberg lettuce, a dollop of McDonald's sweet and tangy mayo, and a toasted bun. All told, I'd guess in the range of 350 calories. Let's say 300 to be conservative.*
* I looked this up when I got home— according to McDonald's, it's actually 360 calories.
So if we're talking from a purely calorie-per-dollar count, The NoMad's chicken sandwich would have to tip the scales at 7,800 calories. A whole chicken comes in at about 1,400 calories. I briefly pictured the maiître-d' walking over and lifting a cloche to reveal a brioche bun with five and a half whole chickens stuffed between it, perhaps a truffle shoved into each of their five and a half beaks.
What actually came to the table was not too far off. You could see heads turning, the aroma of butter and truffles leaving a near-visible wake as it made its way through the dining room. Its lustrous golden brown domes wove their way elegantly between the tables, as it reclined majestically on its wooden cutting board, like a Roman emperor being borne on a litter. It was certainly the largest sandwich I'd ever seen outside of a 6-foot-sub setting.
It was placed in front of me—arrived, is more like it—and I spent a moment admiring it. It's a sandwich that demands attention from the get-go, commanding in its sheer mass, with glistening slabs of chicken peaking out from within, garnished with leaves of celery and thin rounds of shallot.
I gingerly picked up the knife from its embedded slot within the cutting board (you've got to admire that level of attention to detail) and split the sandwich, offering half to my wife, who was already lost in her quiche and the crispy roasted fingerling potatoes it came with.
If there's one remark that can be made straight off the bat, it's that this is not a $26 sandwich. It's two $13 sandwiches that happen to be conjoined. I couldn't fathom finishing one on my own.
As I tend to do when faced with a new dish, I started by gingerly picking at each individual element. Brioche bun—gorgeous, buttery, and tender. No complaints. Chicken—practically oozing juice, with the heady aroma of foie gras built right into it. So far, so good. Celery and shallots—fresh, crisp, and meticulously picked and sliced. Spot on. Black Truffle spread—rich and aromatic, probably made with frozen truffles, but even I don't expect fresh black truffles for $26.
I moved onto the side salad it came with.
Endive, radicchio, and Little Gem lettuce—crisp, sweet, mildly bitter, and perfectly dressed. Chicken skin crisps—a little chewy and underseasoned. One mark off, but a very small one.
I got excited—with ingredients and flavor like this, it was certain to be one helluva first bite. I took it, chewed, swallowed, took one more, put down the sandwich, and stopped.
This is not a good sandwich, I whispered to my wife.
What's wrong?
Well, it was tough to say. How could perfect chicken and a flavorful truffle spread on great brioche help but be anything but wonderful? Then I realized what it was. It was not the fault of a single flawless component, but a basic breach of the First Rule of Sandwich-Making: a sandwich must be greater than the sum of its parts.
There are implications to this statement. In order to achieve sandwich greatness, you don't necessarily need to start with great ingredients—so long as when you add those ingredients together and put them between bread, if they are thus improved, then you have succeeded at the art of sandwich-making. A grilled cheese made with American cheese sandwiched between buttered Wonderbread may not be gourmet material, but children of any age can attest to its success as a sandwich.
In fact, I'd say even the lowly McChicken succeeds in this respect, the peppery crust of the chicken tempered by the creamy acidity of the mayo, the iceberg lettuce adding its signature sweet crunch, with the bun as a soft contrast. You might be grossed out by the quality of the chicken in there, but there's no denying that it's at the very least a carefully planned sandwich that brings the most out of some very inexpensive ingredients in a harmonious, balanced fashion.
The NoMad's sandwich breaks this rule. As you eat it, you taste fine chicken, truffles, and brioche, no more and no less. The synergism is not there, and the sandwich lacks focus and balance because of it; It's as if The Beatles had consisted of four Paul McCartney clones without Ringo's' down-to-earth sensibilities or John and George's acerbic wit to balance him out.
Adding a bit of the side salad between the buns to buttress the celery and shallots improved matters a bit, providing the crunch and acid necessary to counter the assault of buttery richness, but even so, I found myself getting bored about halfway through my half sandwich. I eventually resorted to opening it up and tasting the components individually and found myself enjoying it far more.
Don't get me wrong—it was a wonderful brunch with faultless service, great drinks, and largely excellent food (those fries!), but it was tough not to feel a little disappointed on my way home, having peered over the precipice of greatness, but not having been allowed to take the plunge.
As we passed that McDonald's again, I gingerly tried to steer my wife towards the glass doors, feeling like I was on a quest that needed some sort of logical resolution. She sensed it and chose to keep her gait straight, instead turning to me to say, stop thinking about it. Focus on what's important.
Good point, I thought to myself, as I looked into her pretty eyes. There are far more important things to think about in life.
Like that quiche, I said. That deep, moist, quivering, quiche. Hands down, far and away the best I've had anywhere.
I involuntarily licked my lips and she rolled her eyes again. Sometimes I feel like she just doesn't know how to read my signals.

symptome bronchitis - Bronchitis Causes, Symptoms and Medications
Bronchitis Causes, Symptoms and Medications
Bronchitis is an acute inflammation of the air passages within the lungs. It occurs when the trachea (windpipe) and the large and small bronchi (airways) within the lungs become inflamed because of infection or other causes.
All these changes he was going through, made him feel like he was different than the other children. He was afraid to spend a night for quite some time after being diagnosed; because if his sugar went up too high at night, it could cause him to wet the bed. Something that an eleven-year-old would be horrified to do in front of his friends. We also had to make sure if he did go spend the night with a friend, that they had plenty of food. (Though, his back pack would be packed with extra food for snacks, it couldn't contain the main meals.) We also had to let the parents know he was diabetic, where they could keep an extra eye out. This would sometimes turn into a nightmare, as Eddie did not want to go around announcing he was diabetic. He also didn't like being treated differently if a mother was handing out sugared drinks or sugared snacks to the other kids.

If you are living with diabetes, please make sure you get the emotional help you so need and deserve. It's absolutely a necessity. You may have to live with diabetes, but make sure you have it under control, and that it does not control you. After all, it's a matter of life and death ' both physical and emotional.
usually develops on the heels of a cold or the flu. Your body's battle to defeat these infections leaves your bronchial tubes sensitive, irritated, and inflamed, explains Alan P. Brauer, M.D. This impairs the ability of the tiny hairs that line the bronchial tubes, called the cilia, to sweep mucus and other debris out of your respiratory tract. With your bronchial tubes inflamed and your cilia impaired, your body resorts to its coughing mechanism to keep those bronchi clear.
A chronic cough, wheezing, breathing difficulties and a tight chest have also been associated with the common smoker's cough. This is unfortunate as there are many environmental factors that can contribute to an infection and caused these types of symptoms.
According to the Mayo Clinic, a well regarded medical facility, bronchitis and the resulting cough can also be caused from stomach acid irritating for food pipe or esophagus. This is better known as acid reflux disease.
Medications for chronic bronchitis include anti-inflammatory medications and bronchodilators. Anti-inflammatory drugs decrease the inflammation in the respiratory tract tissues.
Coughs There are a lot of traditional and herbal treatments for coughs and some are indeed stranger than others. The more common ones that are still widely used today involve using honey and lemon. Other herbs include garlic, onions, lavender, thyme, linseed, nettle and dock. Still others are cabbage, carrots, turnips, comfrey, rosemary, balm, glycerin and peppermint. Among all the herbs, eucalyptus is still the most popular cure.
There are many recommended herbal drinks to treat a cough. One remedy is boiling coltsfoot in water with garlic and brown sugar. An infusion made of coltsfoot leaves sweetened with honey is also said to do the trick. Another treatment is syrup made by boiling coltsfoot leaves with equal amounts of plantain leaves and honey. An herbal drink for coughs was based on a mix of dried sage, honey and vinegar. Another was based also on dried sage but with brown sugar and ginger in water. Another cure was formed by mixing and heating butter, vinegar and honey; also was mixing hart shorn, almond oil, hyssop, sugar and water. Another cure for coughs is an infusion made of hyssop, mullein, ground coriander and marshmallow leaves.
Bronchitis Bronchitis is the inflammation of the bronchioles of the lungs and is a lot more serious than cough. Actually, the cough is reduced to one of the symptoms of bronchitis. Although most cases require the treatment of antibiotics, there are still a lot of herbal remedies to help heal and relieve the symptoms of

As it's recognized that dust is almost everywhere, it's important to try to limit exposure as much as possible. This sensitivity of the person with chronic bronchitis will determine the level of action that's needed to limit dust exposure. Someone who is extremely sensitive may need special air cleaning equipment installed in their home. While another who's sensitivity is not as pronounced may be able to live comfortably in a home simply on a regular cleaning schedule. Check out the link below for free report on tips to eliminate asthmatic and bronchial cough triggers in your home.
The emotional stress one goes through seems to get ignored and lost in the endless information and directions of how to now live your life. This is not just merely staying alive ' it's trying to stay alive without ending up blind, on kidney dialysis, with severe nerve damage, or amputation, just to name a few.
Medications Bronchodilator Medications Inhaled as aerosol sprays or taken orally, bronchodilator medications may help to relieve symptoms of chronic

Diabetes causes such a wide array of secondary illnesses. Including stunting growth in a growing child. Eddie lost a whole year of growing. When he was 13, he had the bones of an 11 1/2 yr. old. He was put on intra-muscular testoterone shots at home. Which he took a lot better than most adults would, every night for six months.
Acid reflux can now be successfully treated with many medications. If you think that someone you know may be suffering from a chronic cough caused by bronchitis or possibly asthma, it's important to understand the lifestyle implications this may involve. The primary focus however, should be to get an accurate diagnosis from a qualified respiratory or pulmonary medical professional.
As a mother, seeing him go through all of this, tore my heart out. When I did let him leave, I had to worry not only what every mother worries about when her children go off by themselves, but I had to worry if his sugar dropped too low, would he be able to make it home {b}in time{/b} to get something to eat? Even though he carried emergency glucose pills for low sugar, it does not work all the time. (Depending on how low his sugar is and if he is able to chew, and has enough sense to take them.) When your sugar drops extremely low, you are not aware of what you're doing. Many people have been suspected of being high on drugs, when it is their sugar causing the strange behaviour. It's a very scary thing to see, even more so do go through. I also had to worry if he would go off and drink sugar drinks and go to the store and get candy. This was not a simple concern, this could actually kill or disable him. When your sugar gets too high, you are damaging your organs -- and if you start spilling ketones, it becomes a very dangerous situation. It causes ketoacidosis which causes nausea, sometimes severe with projectile vomiting, stomach pains, confusion and drowsiness; because their body is over-worked and worn out. It's literally starving to death. They are also in danger of slipping into a diabetic coma. High sugar often does develop into Diabetic ketoacidosis -- (DKA) which is a life-threatening blood chemical (electrolyte) imbalance that develops in a person with diabetes when the cells do not get the sugar (glucose) they need for energy. As a result, the body breaks down fat instead of glucose and produces and releases substances called ketones into the bloodstream. Severe diabetic ketoacidosis can cause difficulty breathing, brain swelling (cerebral edema), coma, or death. This is also the time when diabetes is doing the most harm to all the organs -- which can lead to heart failure, kidney failure, blindness, neuropathy -- and the list goes on.
Some of the older cures are harder to come by. One example of these cures is a mix of the juices of leeks and fresh breast milk of a nursing mother. Another less palatable remedy involved boiling two or three snails in barley water. You may not want to go through all this trouble for a cough.
The more common remedies for bronchitis are eucalyptus, garlic, honey, ginger, cinnamon and tea. Herbs like bugle, butterbur, caraway, angelica, borage, coltsfoot and comfrey are known to help in the relief of the symptoms. Other herbs such as chickweed, chervil, fenugreek, fennel, ground ivy, liquorices, myrrh, madder, knotgrass and marjoram are also effective. Mullein, parsley, plantain, onion, sage and primrose, thyme, white horehound, watercress, speedwell and savory are also utilized in the treatment of
Eddie, who is now 23, has kept his sugar under good control, (not tight, sadly -- but good) where he has not had to be hospitalized too often. He mainly has to go into the hospital when he gets a bad illness, such as the flu or stomach virus. When a diabetic's body is stressed with illnesses, it causes the blood sugar to go erratic. High blood sugars read off the chart, even when they have not been able to eat -- then their blood sugar may suddenly drop to a dangerous low. It also makes it more difficult to control because they are not able to eat, or maybe even drink. For diabetics, this is not an option. They are hospitalized where they can receive I.V fluids, and keep a close check on their blood sugar readings. Which sometimes means being pricked in the fingers up to 8 times a day, for several days in a row.
Diabetes is a very serious and scary chronic illness. It is totally life changing for those diagnosed. Eating becomes literally a matter of life and death. And the way a person is use to eating is usually changed drastically.
Exposure to chemical fumes and odors may compromise an otherwise healthy respiratory system. This in turn can lead to sensitivity to other environmental factors like dust, but also both primary and secondary tobacco smoke. While the validity of the effects of secondhand smoke are continue to be debated, it has been shown to be an important breathing factor for those with a compromised respiratory system. All of these factors can contribute to the chronic cough experienced by many asthma, allergy and bronchitis sufferers.
It hurts me now, as it has since the day he was diagnosed, to know that he may soon be experiencing some very bad health problems because of the diabetes. Problems start to arise mostly after being diabetic for five years. We are living on borrowed time with decent health -- as he now has had diabetes for twelve years. When he says his chest hurts him, I don't think, "Oh no, he may be getting bronchitis." I think, "Oh Lord, please let it be something as simple as
." When he tells me his feet hurt and his whole body aches -- I know it may be a sign of neuropathy. At 23 he experiences pains and aches no young adult should have to face. But I praise God for each day that goes by where he is still able to work and live life as close to a young adult as he possibly can. God has spared us from him having any serious conditions. I know that may change any day, but I can relish in each day it does not.

When I had bronchitis, I couldn't stop coughing and was unable to sleep, Bronovil helped me to get my life back. thank you!
" Michael A., OH
One such environmental factor is dust. While dust is a common substance found everywhere, it's especially problematic for those of us who may have a compromised respiratory system. A less than ideal breathing tract is found in people suffering with asthma, many allergies and yes even smokers. What's been ignored in many cases however, is that exposure to chemicals can cause a sensitivity to environmental factors such as dust.
My life was drastically affected by diabetes twelve years ago when my son, who is now 23, was just eleven years old, and diagnosed with juvenile diabetes.
These emotional issues are just as important to deal with as the physical disease itself. The emotional needs must be addressed. Not only the needs of the person diagnosed, but the whole family, and if it's a child, this includes the parents and siblings.
Unless someone is diabetic, or very close to someone who is, they do not realize how life changing this disease can be. I believe one of the reasons this is, is because so many people are diagnosed with diabetes; that somewhere down the line, the seriousness of the disease, in people's minds, have diminished.
The older traditional cures were stranger. One of the folk cures concerns boring a hole into a lemon and filling the hole with honey. The lemon is then roasted wherein the juices are collected and fed to the patient. A stranger remedy involved boring a hole into it and the hole was filled with brown sugar which is then left to sit overnight. The next day, the juices that were collected are given to the patient.
Our lives became rigid, at first -- as we tried to cope with the changes. My son, Eddie, could not just run off and play at his friend's house whenever he wanted, or was allowed. He had to make sure he was home to take his shots on time, to eat the regular meals and the snacks in-between. He was a hard player, he had to learn that if he didn't eat like he was supposed to, wheather he was hungry or not, he would end up getting shaky. If he did not get something in him quickly to raise his blood sugar, he may slip so low that an ambulance would have to be called to save his life, if I wasn't there with an emergency glucagon (intra-muscular sugar water) shot -- as he would get extremely lethargic and not be able to communicate, or to understand what was going on around him.
Anything chronic is considered to be a persistent, recurrent and lasting condition. While chronic
has often been associated with allergies and/or asthma, there are many other causes that can trigger a bronchial infection. Asthma as we know is a lung disease that is characterized by asthmatic events triggered by a variety of factors which cause a constriction of the bronchial tubes and air passages.
He has always been hyperactive, so even when he was sick, he was active. I started to notice he was looking a little pale and losing weight, even though he ate constantly. I made him a doctor appointment for the next opening, which wasn't until a month away. All of a sudden he started wetting the bed. The urine had a very strong odor. He also started complaining of headaches. At first I thought the complaints, was just an excuse for the eleven-year-old to stay out of school. But when they became so severe, I knew they were real. The second day his headaches were so severe, he stayed home from school. He presented no other symptoms, but he slept all day long. This was enough to definitely make me realize something was extremely wrong. I got out my diagnosis health encyclopedia books and after a few hours, I came down to two diagnosis, kidney trouble or diabetes, (this was before I became a nurse, so I was going only by his symptoms and the words on the page). It was about 6:30 at night, when I told my husband something was terribly wrong and I was taking our son to the emergency room.
Then there are the emotional changes diabetes puts them through. The anger, restlessness, nervousness, inpatience -- imagine it, and it is effected. It plays roulette with their hormones, causing their emotions and temperment to go into extreme modes. Sadly, this seems to be most of the time. All this happens in all diabetics, but I am concentrating on Type 1, Juvenile Diabetes. Type 1, Juvenile on-set, varies from Type 2, adult on-set, because with type 1, your pancreas does not produce any insulin at all. With Type 2, it produces insulin, but not sufficient enough, or at a normal rate.

When we arrived at the emergency room, my son had a hard time keeping his eyes opened. We were finally called to the back, where they started running several tests. Sure enough he was diagnosed with Type 1 Juvenile Diabetes. His blood sugar was well over 600. Normal blood sugar levels range from 90-110. The reason he was sleeping so much was because he was trying to slip into a diabetic coma. The doctor said that if I didn't bring him in when I did, he would have went into a coma that night. They admitted him to ICU and kept a vigil on him for three days as insulin was delivered through IV. That was the day our lives changed forever; especially my eleven-year-old son's.
It was over-whelming. Three main meals a day and three snacks a day; mandatory, with a minimum of two shots daily for the rest of his life. To say we were under stress, would be putting it mildly. My son put on a brave face, but about the fourth day after he was diagnosed, I had a heart to heart with him. The poor baby thought he had brought the diabetes on himself and was being punished for something he said. Meanwhile, my nine-year-old at home was going through her own personal hell. After speaking to her, I found out she was scared to death that he was going to die, and that she was next. This came from two children whose parents did talk to them and tried to explain everything to the best of their ability.
If you are one of those people who get rained on a little and get bogged down by the flu the next day, you are probably sick of having coughs and colds and sick of taking medicine over and over again. Sometimes, it is good to know that there are a lot of herbal remedies that are available, effective, easy to use and can replace the mundane cough syrup and escape its side effects.

Online back-up subscription services are becoming more common, but like car or house insurance, it's a yearly cost that sees little return on investment. Of course, that's until something goes wrong, and having an online backup of all your music, photos, videos and documents suddenly seems like a lifesaver.
BullGuard Backup offers online storage of 3GB for £20, which isn't much if you intend to store a collection of music or video. It's then £10 for each extra gigabyte, which is expensive compared to similar services such as Xdrive (5GB free) or BT's Digital Vault (2GB free).
Upload speeds are reasonable at around 100Kbps, but your broadband package will determine how quickly you can get files onto the web. However, you can also archive files locally - on CD or USB, for instance.
The 128-bit encryption ensures the data's secure and all you need to do to access your files is visit https://backup.bullguard.com . Yet what's shocking is that it only works in IE 5.5 or above. That's right, no support for Firefox, Opera or Safari, which severely limits this product's appeal. If you're running another browser apart from IE, you'll only be able to access a reduced, read-only version of the back-up folder.
Much like BullGuard's other products, the online back-up interface is attractive, easy to use and works well. It couldn't be simpler to locate and upload files, and BullGuard will sit in your system tray for quick access.
When creating backups you'll be asked to create a back-up profile for each file or set of files. This consists of information such as what data to back up, where to put it and when to perform scheduled backups - particularly useful for documents and emails.
The back-ups window, containing a list of all your backups, displays helpful information such as when the file was last backed up and when it's next due. This makes your online storage life very easy indeed.

Drew Gilpin Faust, eminent historian and President of Harvard University, will deliver the 2011 Jefferson Lecture in the Humanities. The annual lecture, sponsored by the National Endowment for the Humanities (NEH), is the most prestigious honor the federal government bestows for distinguished intellectual achievement in the humanities.
"It is a rare individual who can break new ground from both the library archives and the president's podium," said NEH Chairman Jim Leach. "Drew Gilpin Faust is a pathfinder, as a scholar and a leader in higher education. This distinguished historian has revealed for us the lives and minds of those confronted by the turbulent social changes of the Civil War era, and then proceeded to apply extraordinary administrative skills to leadership of one of the world's premiere academic institutions."
Faust will present the 40th Jefferson Lecture in the Humanities on Monday, May 2, 2011, at 7:30 p.m. at The John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C.
In the lecture, "Telling War Stories: Reflections of a Civil War Historian," Faust will discuss representations of war throughout history.
Before taking the helm at Harvard, Faust established herself as a preeminent scholar of the Civil War and the American South, often delving into the human consequences of the Civil War and its transformation of antebellum Southern society. Her most recent book, This Republic of Suffering: Death and the American Civil War (Alfred A. Knopf, 2008) examines the impact of the Civil War's enormous death toll on the lives of 19th-century Americans. Praised by Newsweek as "one of those groundbreaking histories in which a crucial piece of the past, previously overlooked or misunderstood, suddenly clicks into focus," This Republic of Suffering was awarded the Bancroft Prize in 2009, was a finalist for both a National Book Award and a Pulitzer Prize, and was named by The New York Times as one of the "10 Best Books of 2008."
Faust is also the author of five other books, including Mothers of Invention: Women of the Slaveholding South in the American Civil War (University of North Carolina Press, 1996), a look at how the wives and daughters of plantation owners responded to the social and economic upheaval wrought by the war, for which she won the Francis Parkman Prize in 1997. Her other works include: Southern Stories: Slaveholders in Peace and War (University of Missouri Press, 1992); The Creation of Confederate Nationalism: Ideology and Identity in the Civil War South (Louisiana State University Press, 1982); James Henry Hammond and the Old South: A Design for Mastery (Louisiana State University Press, 1982); and A Sacred Circle: The Dilemma of the Intellectual in the Old South, 1840-1860 (University of Pennsylvania Press, 1977).
A dedicated educator, Faust was twice honored for her teaching during her 25 years on the faculty of the University of Pennsylvania, where she served as the Annenberg Professor of History. In 2001 she left Philadelphia to become the founding Dean of the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study at Harvard, which she helped transform into an interdisciplinary center with a focus on the study of women, gender, and society.
She was appointed in 2007 as the 28th President of Harvard University and is the first woman to hold that office. During her tenure as Harvard's President, Faust has worked to improve access to the university by expanding its financial aid programs, promoted collaboration across academic disciplines and units, advocated for increased federal funding for scientific research, and raised the profile of the arts on campus. Faust also serves as the Lincoln Professor of History in Harvard's Faculty of Arts and Sciences.
Born in New York City in 1947, Faust's interest and understanding of Southern history was shaped by her childhood in Virginia's Shenandoah Valley. She earned a bachelor's degree in history from Bryn Mawr College, and a Master's and Ph.D. in American Civilization from the University of Pennsylvania.
She is the recipient of numerous awards and honors. She was elected to the Society of American Historians in 1993, the American Academy of Arts and Sciences in 1994, and the American Philosophical Society in 2004. She is a trustee of Bryn Mawr College, the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and the National Humanities Center. She serves on the educational advisory board of the Guggenheim Foundation. She has served as president of the Southern Historical Association, vice president of the American Historical Association, and executive board member of the Organization of American Historians and the Society of American Historians. Faust has also served on numerous editorial boards and selection committees, including the Pulitzer Prize history jury in 1986, 1990, and 2004.
Faust is married to Charles Rosenberg, a leading historian of medicine and science, who is Professor of the History of Science and Ernest E. Monrad Professor in the Social Sciences at Harvard. Faust and Rosenberg have two daughters, Jessica Rosenberg and Leah Rosenberg.
The Jefferson Lecture is the Endowment's most widely attended annual event. Past Jefferson Lecturers include John Updike, Henry Louis Gates, Jr., Bernard Bailyn, Toni Morrison, Arthur Miller, James McPherson, Barbara Tuchman, and Robert Penn Warren. The lectureship carries a $10,000 honorarium.
Tickets to the lecture are free of charge and distributed on a first-come, first-served basis. Ticket requests must be submitted by April 27 via the online form. All other inquiries, as well as ticket requests for persons lacking online access, may be directed to (202) 606-8446.
NEH gratefully acknowledges the generous support for this year's Jefferson Lecture provided by the National Trust for the Humanities, the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities, and HISTORY (formerly The History Channel).

WOODSTOCK – The City Council will re-examine its options for further punishment to Sgt. Chip Amati, including his possible firing.
Council members started Tuesday night's packed, emotional and often tense meeting by calling a special executive session to follow planned agenda items wherein they would discuss further action "up to and including termination, if appropriate and feasible, and within our legal authority and procedure," Mayor Brian Sager said.
The council widely was supportive of a public seeking more answers and further punishment. Sager was moved to near tears as he spoke, stopping more than once to gather himself.
"Nobody feels as much disgust, outrage, betrayal and anger as the members of this City Council," Sager said.
It's unclear what council support ultimately means, and what steps are available to the council, but members said they'd seek further repercussions for Amati during executive session.
"I have that same question," Councilman Mike Turner told a woman inquiring about the next step. "What else? What other opportunities do we have?"
During an investigation of Amati that began in August, state police found he misused the Law Enforcement Agencies Data System – a felony under state law – and sent inappropriate texts to the 12-year-old daughter of his girlfriend at the time.
The 24-year veteran of the force was given the city's maximum 30-day suspension without pay by the Board of Police and Fire Commissioners, but wasn't charged criminally and maintains his job.
City Attorney Richard Flood said the power to fire an officer is reserved for the state Legislature and the board which originally sanctioned Amati.
"[The Board of Police and Fire Commissioners] have the ability to fire an officer if charges are brought against him," Flood said. "Normally when this occurs an officer will hire a lawyer, and the proceedings can be extensive at times."
An already tense crowd grew more anxious for a moment when, shortly after public comments closed, Woodstock resident Gus Philpott stood up at his seat to warn the council about an issue of safety. Just outside the door to the council chambers, a couple men in masks stood peering in.
After initial confusion, Sager asked Police Chief Robert Lowen to escort the men away from the door and request more police if necessary. He did so, but not before Tara Jenkins, who'd spoken to the council already, walked toward the door and then turned back toward the chambers.
"This is ridiculous," she snapped. "These men are here to help us."
The men were members of a small rally by the Chicago chapter of the International hacker group Anonymous. The group, which had planned to arrive and march from the train station at 6:30 p.m., was unseen before the meeting. Later, as eight of them stood in masks in City Hall's entryway, several said their train was late. None offered their names.
About eight people – most Woodstock residents – spoke during the public comment portion of Tuesday's meeting. Conversations were generally amicable but impassioned, with a couple speakers ranging toward hostile.
Jenkins, a Woodstock resident, said she'd been uninterested in the city's official workings until Amati's suspension. As a mother, the news hit her hard, she said.
Jenkins delivered a prepared appeal of more than five minutes to the council.
"In no other profession could one count on a workplace suspension to take the place of a felony criminal charge," she said.
Steven Larrick, who also lives in Woodstock, focused his remarks on abuse of the LEADS system, which Amati had been in charge of prior to the incident. Larrick called for a further investigation "to see if other people within the department also committed the same acts."
After the portion of the meeting concerning Amati ended, Larrick said he felt the council listened to those who spoke. But he felt the prospect of more consequences for Amati could hinge on the State's Attorney's Office re-examining criminal charges.

November 12, 2012
The Israeli military has fired tanks shells into Syria for the second consecutive day after a stray mortar round landed in the Israeli-controlled Golan Heights. The IDF fired "towards the source of the fire" and confirmed "direct hits."
The Israel Defense Force (IDF) tanks fired on two Syrian mortar shell batteries in response to the errant mortar shell that landed near an IDF outpost in Hazeka on Monday. The retaliatory strike comes a day after a similar incident compelled the Israeli military to fire a single Tamuz anti-tank missile into Syria.
An Israeli security source told Haaretz daily the IDF had once again fired a Tamuz anti-tank missile with a range of 25 kilometers in the direction of the Syrian army mortar crew that had launched a shell which overshot the Golan disengagement fence. The IDF reported "direct hits," though no causalities have been reported.
Israel says Monday's shelling was the sixth incident in a week's time that the Syrian conflict had spilled over into Israeli territory.
"The IDF has filed a complaint with the UN forces operating in the area, stating that fire emanating from Syria into Israel will not be tolerated and shall be responded to with severity," the Israeli military said in a statement on Monday.
Sunday's warning shot was the first time Israel had fired on Syrian territory since the 1973 Yom Kippur War.
The government of Israel does not believe that Syria is intentionally targeting Israeli territory, but holds Damascus for any attacks originating from its territory.
Just hours before Sunday's strike, Defense Minister Ehud Barak warned Syria that Israel would "respond" if stray shells landed inside the Golan.
On the same day Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said that Israel was"closely monitoring what is happening on our border with Syria and there too we are ready for any development."
Israel recently filed a complaint with the United Nations Security Council after three Syrian tanks entered the demilitarized zone in the Golan earlier this month.
The tanks were reportedly engaged in a battle with Syrian rebels in the village of Beer Ajam, which is located in the Syrian-controlled portion of the Golan Heights.
Israel captured the Golan Heights from Syria during the Six Day War in 1967. The country agreed to return the land to Syria in return for a peace agreement. The Arab World rejected the overture following the 1967 Arab League Summit which famously concluded: "no peace with Israel, no recognition of Israel, no negotiations with it."
During the 1973 Yom Kippur War, Syrian forces crossed the ceasefire line into the Golan Heights in an attempt to retake the territory. Syria's troops were repelled by Israeli forces.
Israel annexed the Golan in 1981, a move that was rejected by the international community. Israel returned a narrow demilitarized zone to Syrian control, which is currently patrolled by UN peacekeeping forces.

LA's AMP Radio 97.1 has posted their interview with No Doubt-listen here: http://amp.cbslocal.com/2012/09/06/no-doubt-push-and-shove-is-a-hodgepodge-of-styles-thats-just-the-way-they-like-it/
When a band takes a 11-year hiatus, it's not likely they'll be getting back together until they start playing on cruise ships, but leave it to No Doubt to defy the odds.
As soon as they stepped back on the scene with their single "Settle Down," they shot back up to the top of the charts proving that they've still got it.
Sure, they're a little older, a little wiser, and parents to a brood of children, but that hasn't slowed them down one bit.
"I can't speak for everybody, but I never felt that we weren't going to be playing music again," Adrian Young explained to Booker this morning. "That was always the plan."
You can't blame them for taking a little break. Personally and professionally, a lot went down during their years apart.
"There were so many things that happened in between that time," Gwen Stefani said. "We finished the Rock Steady tour. We did a greatest hits tour. Then I decided to do a dance record. I did that and then I decided to go on tour. I got pregnant the month I got home from the tour, right when we were going to start the record. No, it wasn't a whoops because I really wanted to get pregnant, so I was really happy about it, but I thought, 'Oh, I'll just get pregnant and write the record. It'll be perfect.' Uh-uh. So, I think there was too much creation already happening."
Now that No Doubt is back in the swing of things, their little "creations" will be joining them on the road. During their 2009 greatest hits tour, they each got their own family tour bus and brought the kids along with them.
"I think we got to see so much of the cities now like once you have them, it forces you to go out," said Gwen. Before, I would just sleep the whole time! I'd sleep, sleep, sleep, work out, and play the shows and now it's, 'Okay, who wants to go to the science museum? Let's go!'"
It's a completely different world since the 2001 release of Rock Steady. These days, more people buy singles instead of albums, but No Doubt hopes you'll give Push and Shove a chance. "I feel like it's definitely sad to think that people might not hear the whole record, you know, for us because we work so hard on it and we love it so much and we want to share it," Gwen explained. "I'm just saying right now, 'Please! Just put your headphones on in a dark room. Put your, you know, computer up, look at the lyrics.'"
The band describes Push and Shove as a "hodgepodge" of styles, musically-speaking, and that's "just the way they like it."
"I feel like it's really balanced of everything we've ever been," Gwen said. "I'm writing about being overwhelmed by too much going on, too many great things going on and trying to balance everything. It feels like that's kind of a repeated theme, but you know, it's always about love. It's always about all the same old stuff."
No Doubt may be all grown up now, but they've never forgotten their humble beginnings. Just ask Gwen, who reminisced about a serious case of nerves during her first date with her future husband, Gavin Rossdale.
"I got hives on my first date with Gavin. Isn't that crazy? What a sign. I woke up and literally you couldn't even recognize my face. And I had to play the show that night and they gave me a shot and they all went away. It's amazing."

Google makes another move into Internet TV
SAN FRANCISCO -- Google launched a new foray into the crowded field of tech companies that want to deliver Internet video to your television set, unveiling a deceptively simple-looking device Monday that costs just $35 and is small enough to fit on a key chain.
The Chromecast gadget is designed to turn a smartphone or tablet into an easy-to-use remote control for sending material from the Internet -- including high-definition video from YouTube and Netflix -- to the much bigger screens of the familiar television sets that most people have in their homes.
While the device has limitations, several industry experts said its low price may have significant appeal. "I think it's a brilliant end run around the complexity of other Internet TV solutions," said Forrester analyst Sarah Rotman Epps.
Other tech companies, from Apple and Microsoft to TiVo and Roku, have developed hardware for delivering Internet content on television sets. But none has completely won the hearts of consumers. Google has stumbled in two previous attempts.
Various technical obstacles, unwieldy user controls and even the difficulty of securing program rights have made the Internet TV market "a very difficult nut to crack," said Ross Rubin, who tracks technology for the Reticle Group.
But despite the popularity of laptops, tablets and smartphones, Epps said, "consumers still watch many hours a day of television, so any tech platform wants to get more of those minutes" of consumers' attention.
Google introduced the Chromecast device at a press event where the giant Internet company also showed off a new Nexus 7 mini-tablet with a high-definition screen, an update to its Android Jelly Bean mobile software and an expansion of its online books business that will sell digital versions of college textbooks from five leading publishers.
News of the tablet had leaked out days earlier. But the Chromecast was a tightly held secret. Epps praised the 2-inch device, which plugs into the HDMI port of a high-definition TV, as a "smaller, more elegant approach" than Google's previous attempts at Internet television.
Those include Google TV, which combined specially made television sets with a set-top box and a complicated set of user controls, and the Nexus Q, a $300 bowling ball-shaped device for streaming audio and video content, which Google pulled from the market just weeks after it was announced.
Chromecast is a simpler system. When plugged into the TV, the gadget automatically connects with a home Wi-Fi router as well as other Wi-Fi-enabled devices such as smartphones, tablets or laptop computers. Anyone in range can use a smartphone or computer as the "remote control" to select video or music from any provider that has built Chromecast compatibility into its app.
Once an app is selected, the Chromecast device streams directly to the television from the home's Internet router. It can also stream Web material directly from any computer using Google's Chrome browser.
Two leading sources of Internet video, Netflix and Google's own YouTube service, have made their apps compatible, executives said Wednesday, while Pandora Media and several other companies have new apps in the works. Google didn't mention Amazon or Hulu, however, although Senior Vice President Sundar Pichai said he expects more companies will want to partner in the future.
Chromecast is somewhat similar to the AirPlay service that Apple offers with its $99 Apple TV device, analysts noted. Apple TV doesn't work with Android devices, however, while Chromecast works with both Android and Apple smartphones and tablets.
"We won't force you to have the same operating system on all your devices," said Google Vice President Mario Queiroz.
Some analysts were skeptical about the device. Consumers can already choose from a variety of set-top boxes, game consoles and other Internet-connected hardware, said Gartner's Van Baker. Microsoft's Xbox console is currently one of the biggest-selling Internet TV devices. "It's not like it's hard to get Netflix or Hulu or any of the services on your television," he said.
But Epps said the Chromecast "is doing just enough and much more cheaply" than competing products.
About six in 10 U.S. households that have broadband Internet access are able to watch some kind of digital content on their televisions already, said Michael Greeson of the Diffusion Group, a market research firm. But he said the Google gadget could offer a wider range of content at a low price.
"This device could be surprisingly successful," Greeson said.

Martyrs Andrew, John, and John's children: Peter and Antonius, of Syracuse, martyred in Africa
The Holy Martyrs Andrew and John, and John's children Peter and Antoninus, suffered in the ninth century in the time of the cruel African ruler Ibrahim. After the capture and destruction of the Sicilian city of Syracuse, Ibrahim captured and brought to Africa Saint John and his two children, Peter and Antoninus, whom he compelled to study the Arab language and sciences.
When the youths had grown, Prince Ibrahim was so fond of them for their wisdom and virtuous life, that he named Antoninus his kinsman, and he appointed Peter as his chief steward. Once he learned that the youths secretly confessed faith in Christ, however, Ibrahim flew into a furious rage, ordering them to be bound with iron shackles and beaten with knotted rods.
After prolonged scourging, they put Saint Antoninus on a donkey, tied him on with straps, then drove him through the city, beating and ridiculing him with abuse. The martyr endured all the insults and gave thanks to God. Saint Peter was thrown into prison after a fierce beating with the rods.
An order was issued to arrest John, the father of the holy martyrs. The brutal Ibrahim grabbed him by the neck with his left hand, and with his right he thrust a knife into his throat. They cast the dead body of the father, together with the bodies of his sons, into a large fire.
As for Saint Andrew, the torturer wore him down with hunger, and then ran him through with a spear in the chest. When the martyr prayerfully began to give thanks to God, Ibrahim ran him through a second time. As he lay dying from loss of blood, they beheaded the righteous martyr with a sword.

Bill O'Brien leaves Penn State for Houston Texans
Bill O'Brien inherited a Penn State program rocked by scandal, on the cusp of crippling sanctions, and staring at a murky future.
All he ever really cared about was making the Nittany Lions winners.
O'Brien succeeded against heavy odds, overcoming a lack of scholarships, a bowl ban, and player defections. He leaves the program on stable ground after bolting Happy Valley for the NFL and the Houston Texans.
Penn State planned to act fast to find his successor.
"Our anticipation is that we'll be counting this in a matter of days rather than weeks," Penn State athletic director Dave Joyner said Thursday.
O'Brien left the Nittany Lions less than two years after replacing Joe Paterno, returning to the NFL to coach the team with the league's worst record this season.
Naturally, Joyner said there has been tremendous interest already in the vacancy, which should be more appetizing than in 2012. A former offensive coordinator for the Patriots, O'Brien took on perhaps college football's toughest job in January 2012, joining a school rattled by the Jerry Sandusky child sex abuse scandal.
"I think it's a lot more attractive at this point, although we had tremendous interest even in spite of everything two years ago," Joyner said. "From a scholarship standpoint, we're going to be very competitive right out of the gate. Watching what's happened here the last two years, if I was a head coach candidate, would make me very excited."
Defensive line coach Larry Johnson is interim head coach while the search for a replacement goes on.
"I'm humbled by the confidence that Penn State has bestowed upon me during this critical time for the football program and honored to do my part to help Penn State," Johnson said.
O'Brien will become the third coach in Texans history, following Dom Capers, who led the team from its expansion season in 2002, and Gary Kubiak. O'Brien was set to be introduced Friday in Houston.
Kubiak took over when Capers was fired after a 2-14 season in 2005. Kubiak went 61-64 and led the Texans to their first two playoff appearances and two AFC South titles before being fired in early December.
Houston was expected to contend for the Super Bowl this season, but instead lost nine games by a touchdown or less to end up 2-14.
"In your lifetime, you only get certain opportunities so many times," O'Brien told reporters at a Houston airport. "This is a great opportunity to work with an owner like Mr. (Bob) McNair and an organization like the Texans. It is a very exciting time for myself and my family."
O'Brien was proud of his time at Penn State.
"They gave me my first opportunity to be a head coach, and I'll always thank them for that," he said. "They're great kids at Penn State; lot of great people there."
O'Brien was the first major defection this week. Third-team All-American wide receiver Allen Robinson decided Thursday to forgo his final year of eligibility and enter the NFL draft.
Robinson set Penn State season records in receptions (97) and yards receiving (1,432) for the second consecutive year. He wrote on Twitter: "It was a honor to wear a penn state uniform for 3 years. I will miss my teammates and coaches, blessed for the opportunity and experience."
Robinson at least gave the program three years. O'Brien only lasted two.
"I believe that Bill O'Brien came here with the intent to be here for a long haul," Joyner said.
O'Brien, who helped lead the Patriots to the Super Bowl for the 2011 season, arrived in Happy Valley after apprenticeships coaching at Brown, Georgia Tech, Maryland and Duke, followed by five years as an NFL assistant on Bill Belichick's staff. He won games and won over players with a stern look on his face.
O'Brien did it all in Paterno's shadow. Over the course of his 61 years at Penn State, Paterno became not just the face, but the cantankerous soul and benefactor of a school that was transformed from a "cow college" into a top-shelf public university.
Joyner said O'Brien never seemed affected by the Paterno loyalists who were slow to warm to an outsider running the program.
"Bill handled that very well, with grace and style," he said. "I really believe that he loved it here. From the get-go, he looked at himself as a long-termer. But I think a tremendous opportunity came up for him."
While some scholarships have been restored, Penn State lacks the full allotment other Big Ten schools including new members Rutgers and Maryland have at their disposal.
As for candidates to replace O'Brien, Greg Schiano has Penn State ties and may want to return to college after two forgettable seasons with the Tampa Bay Buccaneers. While at Rutgers, Schiano was viewed as an Eastern recruiting expert who built the Scarlet Knights into a consistent bowl team by landing players from New Jersey to Miami.
Vanderbilt's James Franklin and Miami coach Al Golden, a former Penn State captain under Paterno, could both be at the top of the list.
Joyner said school ties aren't a must for the new coach.
"People that have been affiliated with Penn State understand and are part of that great tradition," he said. "It's not a requirement going forward, but it's something that will be in the thought process in the selection of the next great football coach at Penn State."
