	Battle of New Orleans, Robert Remini, David Kopel, Independence Institute
		As noted in the song "The Hunters of Kentucky" (celebrating the Battle of New Orleans, the song became the Jackson presidential campaigns' theme song), New Orleans is "famed for wealth and beauty." British General Packenham had promised his soldiers "beauty and booty"—meaning that they could rape the women and pillage the city.
		To the extent that junior high school history textbooks mention the Battle of New Orleans, they insist that the Battle was irrelevant, since the battle was fought on January 8, 1815, and the Treaty of Ghent, ending the war, was signed on December 24, 1814.

	The General Armstrong and the War of 1812
		The British squadron was bound for New Orleans, and, on account of the delay and loss that it suffered it was late in arriving, so that this action may be said to have helped in saving the Crescent City.
		This was to be an attack on New Orleans, to seize control of the mouth of the Mississippi and provide the basis of a British-dominated Indian territory west of the Appalachian Mountains.
		It cost the expedition three weeks to refit, and in those three weeks Andrew Jackson reached New Orleans with the riflemen of Tennessee and the pirates of Barataria to set the stage for his farewell to glory on the frost-strewn plain of Chalmette.

	CD Baby: BLUFF CITY BACKSLIDERS: Bluff City Backsliders
		The Bluff City Backsliders play American roots music, on a blues base (Howlin' Wolf, Bo Carter, Charley Patton, Willie McTell, John Estes are among the song composers) but with strong touches of old-time country and New Orleans Jazz.
		Finger-plucked guitar, high-dollar fiddle, vamping banjos, bottleneck and lap-style resonator guitar, dog-bite mandolin, sliding trombone, and stride and strut pianos produce a joyous cacophony of early jazz, jug band, old-time country, and proto-bluegrass sounds, reaching from Memphis to Appalachia and all the way down to New Orleans, often all at once.
		Well, The Bluff City Backsliders and their self-titled recording from Yellow Dog Records might have the remedy for what ails you.

	cbs4.com - 'Love Song For Bobby Long'
		There's Travolta as the titular character, sitting on the front porch of a dilapidated house outside New Orleans, drunk all day on cheap vodka.
		But Bobby and Lawson's illusion is interrupted one day by the arrival of Purslane Hominy Will (Johansson, and yes that really is her character's name), the estranged teenage daughter of the local country singer who owned the house and let Bobby and Lawson live there before her recent death.
		Pursy, as she is known, first appears in the movie living with her useless boyfriend in a Panama City, Fla., trailer and eating peanut butter straight from the jar.

	MovieFreak.com - "A Love Song for Bobby Long" DVD Review
		Upon hearing of her mother’s death, jaded teenage loner Purslane Hominy Will (Scarlett Johansson) returns to New Orleans for the first time in years, ready to reclaim her childhood home.
		A Love Song For Bobby Long is not a great film, and it is certainly nothing new, but it is highly watchable, if only for the memorable work by this talented cast and the stunning, vibrant photography.
		Languishing in a trailer in Panama City, Florida – “The Redneck Riviera,” as Bobby Long calls it – she is stuffing her face with junk food and braining out in front of the television when we first meet her, when her boyfriend tells her that “some guy” called, and that Persy’s mother is dead.

	"The Real World" - Season X Survey
		However, some of you did recall such minor masterpieces such as New Orleans Julie's boxing bout with Squirrel, and the little song Amaya sang when her roommates were mean to her (the person who nominated the latter moment assured me of his sanity).
		Just in time for a brand-new season of "The Real World," I bring you the summation of that lengthy psychological torture session known as "Back to New York." It will probably come as no surprise that the overall tone of your answers was one of disgust, disdain and profound ennui.
		Bunim/Murray lines them up with cushy jobs and a city to explore, and the kids spend their time lounging around on the sofa and getting wicked at yuppie bars.
