Rihanna in Air Jordan IV "Fire Red"
May 2nd, 2013 by Brendan Dunne | 24 comments
Rihanna's got a pretty decent Air Jordan game, you know that. The singer is shown here posing with the Air Jordan IV "Fire Red" on feet, presumably a pair from last year that doesn't actually use fire red as its color shade of choice. Her entourage though? They need a little bit of help-check out the young lady sitting on the median with those super bogus Air Jordan IV 360s on feet (Nike Air on the back!). Continue reading for all the shots of Rihanna in her Air Jordan IVs and let's all hope that she spreads the love around a bit and brings the rest of her crew up to speed.
Filed under: Air Jordans, Celebrity Feet // Tags: Air Jordan (4) IV, Air Jordan IV 'Fire Red', Rihanna
what's weird (exept for those fake website's 50$ 360airmaxJIVs) is that she's actually wearing a men's size shoe, don't know how tall she is but it's the first lady I see with a men sz, maybe is just a pair of a friend of her ..
When I think of Rihanna, I think of cigarettes....I don't like cigarettes! Oh yeah, and her friend got on some fake kicks!
i'm convinced all you sneaker nerds are gay, RiRi bad as shit, fuck what she got on her feet or what any of them other bitches got on their feet, you weirdos
Why yall get so fascinated about seeing celebs in the same shoes released 20 years ago?
No one gave a damn about her in Joker 1's the other day, so why would we today with her in IV's?
@The Ignorance she's aiight...there are FAR MORE attractive women in the world and WAY MORE attractive women that aren't celebrities than her.....
And she rolling with riri,take care of your crew ma..plus they got Nike air on the back smdh

Great to see the Economist using the International Trade Centre's market analysis tools. Our databases are FREE to developing and least developed countries and can help them to identify new export markets. Most recently we've added company contact data to the trade statistics, tariffs, FDI and other information previously availabe. See www.intracen.org/marketanalysis
Registration to use the databases is required but access is FREE if you are located in a developing country. ¨
Best regards
Helen Lassen, Market Analysis Section, ITC.
I would think that the developed countries might actually start exporting more to developing countries that need to support their growth.
Given that developing countries make up 80% of the world's population, this was bound to happen eventually.
While this trade between poor nations is good for their economies, you can be sure that it will only benefit a top few.
Remember, economic strength isn't a good indicator of living standards.
This can't be news. You trade with your neighbors. In a poor/developing area, the neighbors tend to be poor/developing nations. It is simply the path of least resistance, and develops out of necessity, rather than trade deals.
I have swung through Africa more than once giving (mostly free) advice.
I am pleased with the generally rising export levels of third world countries, though it is generally spotty.
My advice to the leaders of these countries is - (and this has met with general incomprehension) - if you wish to increase your country's exports by at least 25% overnight, build a large container port. It is break-bulk shipping which is holding you back.
I also tell them that this is the advice of the World Bank, and in most of these countries they are willing to build one for free.
But you can see what is going through these character's minds. "Will I get a Mercedes out of it?"

And I felt like the Wildcat Warm-up weekend was exactly what I needed and it has been, its been a blast." Gary, Class of 2017

Health forms, permissions slips, athletic attire, and tennis shoes are required. Learn more about the K-State Challenge Course.

< Return To Hearing
Mr. Barry Sabin
Chief, Counterterrorism Section of the Criminal Division
Department of Justice Joint Statement by and Barry Sabin, Chief, Counterterrorism Section, Criminal Division Hearing Before the United States Senate Judiciary Committee April 20, 2005 Mr. Chairman, members of the Committee, thank you for the opportunity to testify at this important hearing. We are pleased to discuss with you the Justice Department's efforts in investigating and prosecuting terrorists and in protecting the American people from future terrorist attacks, owing to the important tools Congress has provided us over the years. Specifically, we will focus on our use of the material support statutes, 18 U.S.C. Sections 2339A and 2339B, which are at the heart of the Department's prosecutive efforts. As President Bush recently said, "Our country is still the target of terrorists who want to kill many, and intimidate us all. We will stay on the offensive against them, until the fight is won." We, at the Department of Justice, continue that fight, always cognizant of the vital importance of the liberties guaranteed by our Constitution. Working together with the Intelligence community and our international allies, law enforcement agents and prosecutors have made significant progress in the war on terror through use of the criminal justice system, one of the many tools in the American counterterrorism arsenal. The material support statutes, as enhanced and clarified by the USA PATRIOT Act in 2001, and the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act just a few months ago, are critical features of the law enforcement approach to counterterrorism. Rather than criminalizing the violent acts used by terrorists, these statutes recognize that there are important components of the terrorist infrastructure that stop short of actual attacks. We know from experience that terrorists need funding and logistical support to operate. They need to raise funds, open and use bank accounts to transfer money, and to communicate by phone and the Internet. They need travel documents. They need to train and recruit new operatives, and procure equipment for their attacks. People who occupy this position in the terrorism division of responsibility might not themselves be bomb-throwers. The front-line terrorists cannot operate without specialists. The material support statutes are designed to reach the non-violent specialists and the logistical support networks. Even before the most recent amendment, which we will address shortly, these provisions criminalized the act of knowingly providing "material support or resources" to terrorist acts and to foreign terrorist organizations, or FTOs, designated by the Secretary of State. "Material support or resources" is a term of art specifically defined to include a broad range of conduct - all along the terrorist chain. It includes providing financial services, lodging, safe houses, false documentation or identification, weapons, communications equipment, and explosives. Section 2339A, passed in 1994, criminalizes knowingly providing material support or resources to a particular crime of terrorism, such as a bombing plot, while Section 2339B, which became operational in October 1997, criminalizes the knowing provision of material support or resources to a foreign terrorist organization such as al Qaeda or Hamas, irrespective of the providors' violent intent. Section 2339B provides a criminal sanction for anyone who supports a foreign terrorist organization designated by the Secretary of State, in consultation with the Attorney General and the Secretary of the Treasury. One of the consequences of such a designation is that providing support to such an organization is illegal. There are presently 40 designated FTOs ranging from Al Qaeda to Abu Musab al-Zarqawi's Jama'at al-Tawhid wa'al-Jihad to the Palestinian rejectionist groups, such as the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, to narco-terrorist groups, such as the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Columbia (FARC). Thanks to Congress, the material support laws contain the inchoate offenses of attempt and conspiracy, which allow law enforcement the legal basis to intervene at the very early stages of terrorist planning, several steps removed from the execution of particular attacks. This capability is crucial to the prosecution of terrorist supporters who may not themselves be prone to violence. By allowing for the prosecution of someone who intends to provide support to terrorists and takes an affirmative step in that direction, we can successfully interdict the support before it reaches the terrorist, let alone waiting until it culminates in a terrorist attack. Over the past several years, our concerted efforts have led to the identification, disruption or demise of terrorist support conspiracies throughout the country. Some of these cases have involved individuals who are operational. Many have not. The terrorists and their supporters in these cases were brought down by the material support statutes you have provided us criminalizing such conduct. Convictions A number of victories in recent months illustrate these powerful law enforcement tools and how they operate in practice. On March 10, 2005, after a five-week trial, a jury in Brooklyn, New York, convicted two Yemeni citizens, Mohammed Ali Hasan Al-Moayad and Mohsen Yahya Zayed, of conspiring to provide material support to al Qaeda and Hamas, pursuant to 18 U.S.C. 2339B. They were both found guilty of attempting to provide material support to Hamas. Al-Moayad was also convicted of providing material support to Hamas and attempting to provide material support to al Qaeda. Al-Moayad, the imam of a large Yemeni mosque and an influential political leader, was caught on undercover tape recordings discussing the collection of monies from the al Farook mosque in Brooklyn and his desire to distribute the monies to al Qaeda and Hamas to finance violent jihad. Additional proof collected by the German authorities against Zayed - who accompanied Al Moayad to Franfurt, Germany in 2003, where they thought they would receive a large donation - allowed us to charge both of them. This case also clearly demonstrates two important principles: First, that United States prosecutors and investigators, like our colleagues in the intelligence community and the military, must rely upon our international partners to be successful. Al Moayad and Ziyad could not have been brought to justice without the assistance of our German colleagues, who worked alongside the FBI in the sting operation, and made the arrests that ultimately culminated in the extradition of the defendants to the United States from Germany. German officials testified about their actions in federal court in Brooklyn. Second, that successful indictments and prosecutions often lead to further successes in combating terror. We are able to leverage the intelligence collected from cooperators in our criminal cases to discover and track down new leads and evidence. This investigation uncovered Al-Moayad's contacts in Brooklyn, including a Brooklyn associate who had transferred over $20 million overseas through the bank account of his tiny ice cream store. Those Brooklyn associates have been charged with various federal crimes ranging from unlicensed money remitting to making false statements as part of the Department's disruption approach. In the Al-Moayad trial, prosecutors presented the testimony of Yaya Goba, one of the convicted defendants in the Lackawanna case. Successful prosecutions beget more prosecutions. On February 10, 2005, a Manhattan jury in United States v. Sattar found all defendants guilty on all counts, which also involved material support charges. This case sent a clear message that the Department will prosecute professionals who cross the line to assist terrorists with their murderous goals. Ahmed Abdel Sattar, an Islamic Group (AGAI) leader and associate of Sheik Omar Abdel Rahman, was convicted of plotting to kill and kidnap persons in a foreign country which included evidence highlighting his crucial participation in drafting and disseminating a legal fatwah in Abdel Rahman's name urging the murder of Jews wherever found. Lynne Stewart, a criminal defense attorney who has represented the Sheik, and Mohammed Yousry, an Arabic interpreter for the Sheik, were convicted on both substantive and conspiracy counts of providing, and concealing the provision of, material support or resources, knowing that such support was to be used in carrying out a conspiracy to kill persons in a foreign country, in violation of 18 U.S.C. 2339A. Stewart and Yousry smuggled messages concerning Islamic Group activities between Sheik Abdel Rahman and his co-conspirators, including Sattar, and actively concealed the fact that they had done so in violation of the administrative prison rules to which Stewart agreed to be bound. Sheik Abdel Rahman is serving a life sentence for participating in a failed plot to bomb a series of New York City landmarks and soliciting the murder of Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak. In February of this year, prosecutors in Detroit obtained a guilty plea from a Hizballah financier. The defendant, whose brother is the organization's Chief of Military Security in Southern Lebanon, admitted that he helped others raise money for Hizballah. Last year, we obtained a guilty plea to violations of both Sections 2339A and 2339B, among other charges, from a Pakistani-American involved in al Qaeda procurement, training and recruitment, who had appeared on British television stating "I do not feel any remorse for the Americans [who died] . . . I am willing to kill Americans. I will kill every American that I see in Afghanistan. And every American soldier that I see in Pakistan." The defendant, Mohammed Junaid Babar, arranged for a month-long jihadi training camp, at which attendees received training in basic military skills, explosives and weapons. Among the attendees were individuals who were plotting to bomb targets abroad. The operation of the material support statutes is also illustrated by a number of pending prosecutions. Last week, the Department announced the unsealing of an indictment that made important use of Section 2339A to charge three individuals for their alleged participation in terrorist plots to attack the financial sectors in New York, New Jersey and the District of Columbia. Dhiren Barot, Nadeem Tarmohamed and Qaisar Shaffi, all British nationals, are charged with assisting in a plot to attack the New York Stock Exchange and the Citigroup building in New York, the Prudential Building in New Jersey, and the International Monetary Fund and World Bank buildings in Washington, D.C. Another § 2339A case involves Babar Ahmad and Azzam Publications, charged in Connecticut in October of 2004. Ahmad, a resident of the United Kingdom, allegedly operated and directed Azzam Publications and its family of Internet websites to recruit and assist the Chechen mujahideen and the Taliban and to raise funds for violent jihad in Afghanistan, Chechnya and other locations. These websites existed and operated throughout the world, including in the United States. Along with other Internet media allegedly created and operated by Ahmad, these sites gave instructions for travel to Pakistan and Afghanistan to fight with these groups and for surreptitious transfer of funds to the Taliban; they also solicited military items for these groups, including gas masks and night vision goggles. The websites also advertised videotapes - allegedly produced by Ahmad and others - depicting violent jihad in Chechnya, Bosnia, and Afghanistan, and the torture and killing of captured Russian troops. Ahmad has been charged with crimes that include providing material support to terrorists under 18 U.S.C. 2339A. We describe this indictment to you -- in part -- to highlight the use of the Internet by those who support their violent goals through communications, recruiting and propaganda. This is criminal conduct, not rights protected by the First Amendment. The government must meet the challenges posed by the technology of the twenty-first century through the use of all our tools, including criminal investigation and prosecution. Meanwhile, we have a couple of important pending § 2339B cases. In Florida, the trial of four of the defendants in the Sami al Arian case is scheduled to begin on May 16, 2005. In a 53-count indictment, Sami Al-Arian and eight other defendants, including Ramadan Shallah, the acknowledged worldwide leader of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad (PIJ), have been charged with using facilities in the United States, including the University of South Florida, as the North American base for PIJ, providing material support to PIJ, and conspiring to murder individuals abroad, among other offenses. PIJ was designated as a foreign terrorist organization in 1997, and has claimed responsibility for suicide bombings in the Middle East that have killed U.S. citizens. In August 2004, a Chicago grand jury indicted Mousa Marzook, Abdelhaleem Ashqar, and Mohammad Salah for participating in a 15-year racketeering conspiracy in the United States and abroad to illegally finance Hamas's terrorist activities in Israel, the West Bank, and Gaza Strip, including providing money for the purchase of weapons. The indictment, which for the first time identifies Hamas as a criminal enterprise, also charges Salah under 18 U.S.C. § 2339B for providing material support to Hamas. All three defendants allegedly used bank accounts in the United States to launder millions of dollars for Hamas, which has publicly claimed credit for engaging in suicide bombings that resulted in the deaths of Americans and other foreign nationals in Israel and the West Bank, as well as Israeli military personnel and civilians. These cases, plus the other matters that have already resulted in convictions, demonstrate the manner in which we have come to rely upon the material support statutes. Legal Victories We have also obtained important, favorable appellate court rulings in recent months that are vital to the enforcement of Section 2339B. In United States v. Afshari and United States v. Hammoud, a panel of the Ninth Circuit and the en banc Fourth Circuit, respectively, held that a criminal defendant charged with providing material support to a designated FTO under Section 2339B may not challenge the validity of the underlying FTO designation in the course of the criminal prosecution. The Afshari district court opinion, which was overturned by the appellate court, had raised the untenable specter of multi-district challenges to an FTO designation and the resulting criminalization of terrorist conduct in one district but not another. The appellate courts agreed with the government in both cases that the validity of an FTO designation is not an element of the offense under 18 U.S.C. 2339B, consistent with language explicit in the FTO statute to that effect. Furthermore, in Humanitarian Law Project v. Ashcroft, the Ninth Circuit held en banc that there is no First Amendment right to provide material support to the ostensibly humanitarian or political activities of a designated FTO. Similarly, in United States v. Hammoud, the Fourth Circuit en banc rejected claims that the material support prohibition contained in Section 2339B impermissibly encroached on First Amendment rights of free association and expression. In the words of the Ninth Circuit, "giving support intended to aid an organization's peaceful activities frees up resources that can be used for terrorist acts."
Looking to the future, we are confident that the amendments to the material support statutes and foreign terrorist organization provisions of the Immigration and Nationality Act, passed by Congress and signed by the President in December, will significantly enhance the capabilities of prosecutors to eradicate terrorist activity at every stage. These amendments--contained in the Intelligence Reform and Terrorism Prevention Act--give prosecutors important new and enhanced tools in the fight against terrorism here and abroad. Significantly, the definition of "material support or resources" was expanded to encompass all property--whether tangible or intangible--and all services, except for medicine and religious materials. The definition formerly was limited to specified types of material support and "other physical assets." Congress's action to clarify this definition assures that no form of terrorist assistance or activity will escape the reach of the statute. The amendments also clarify the meaning of the terms "personnel," "training," and "expert advice or assistance," as used in the definition of "material support or resources." These changes should eliminate some of the uncertainty generated by a few adverse court decisions rejecting the government's interpretation of those terms. For example, it is now clear that the provision of "personnel" to a terrorist act or organization includes providing oneself. Congress also clarified that no one could be prosecuted for providing "personnel" under section 2339B unless the individual(s) were provided to manage, supervise or otherwise direct the terrorist organization or, conversely, to work under its direction or control. These changes respond to a few court decisions which opined that the term "personnel" could be vague. The amendments also defined the terms "training," and "expert advice or assistance," in response to perceived constitutional problems identified by the Ninth Circuit or the district court in Humanitarian Law Project. We are hopeful that these amendments will achieve their desired effect, especially in light of the Ninth Circuit's recent orders in HLP vacating the district courts' injunctions against enforcement of the terms "training," "personnel,"and "expert advice or assistance" and remanding to the district court in light of changes made by the IRTPA. The amendments also clarify the knowledge requirement of Section 2339B. That section now expressly says that the defendant must either know that the organization is a designated FTO or that it engages in certain terrorist conduct. The government is not required to show that the material support was provided for the express purpose of furthering the FTO's terrorist activities, a standard at odds with the purposes of Section 2339B. Section 2339D is also a potent remedy for the serious problems created by the steady flow of recruits to terrorist training camps. Various investigations have uncovered individuals who have traveled overseas to training camps to receive military-style training. These individuals, who in many cases have received firearms and explosives training, appear to be preparing to conduct terrorist activity or violence and pose a clear threat here and abroad. Investigations have also disclosed that attendees sometimes maintain longstanding relationships with other training camp "alumni," who may later seek to recruit and utilize them in their plots. Material Support to Terrorism Prohibition Improvements Act The amendments to the material support statutes contained in Intelligence Reform and Prevention Act of 2004 are currently scheduled to sunset at the end of 2006. As described above, these amendments are critical to maintaining the efficacy of the material support statutes as a potent prosecutorial tool in combating terrorism. The Department therefore supports making these revisions to the material support statutes permanent, and we commend Senator Kyl for introducing the Material Support to Terrorism Prohibition Improvements Act (MSTPIA), which would do just that. Although the Department has not yet had a chance to evaluate thoroughly all of the provisions in the proposed legislation, repealing the sunset on those amendments to the material support statutes contained in the Intelligence Reform Act would represent a significant step forward, ending uncertainty in this area of the law and ensuring that prosecutors will not lose a critical tool. The proposed legislation also contains another important provision, which the Department strongly supports. Under current law, those aliens who have received military-type training from or on behalf of a terrorist organization may be deported from the country. Such aliens, however, are not inadmissible. This anomaly in the law does not make any sense, and the proposed legislation would fix this problem by rendering inadmissible those aliens who have received military-type training from or on behalf of a terrorist organization. To put it simply, such aliens represent a clear and present danger to the safety of the American people and should not be allowed to enter nor remain present in the United States. The MSTPIA also contains other worthwhile provisions, and the Department looks forward to working with Senator Kyl and other Committee members on this important piece of legislation. Conclusion The changes recently enacted in the Intelligence Reform Act have built upon, and enhanced, the work of prior Congresses in the USA PATRIOT Act, the Anti-Terrorism and Effective Death Penalty Act of 1996 and the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act of 1994. Together, this legislation has provided law enforcement and prosecutors with a solid framework within which to pursue the goal of prevention, disruption and eventual eradication of terrorism within our borders and beyond. We, as prosecutors in the Justice Department, have more work to do to eliminate this deadly threat, and we urge you in Congress to continue to build upon and enhance the legal tools needed to accomplish our mutual goals. Mr. Chairman, thank you again for inviting us here and giving us the opportunity to discuss how the material support statutes are being used in the field to fight terrorism. We would also like to thank this Committee for its continued leadership and support. Together, we will continue our efforts to defeat those who would harm this country. |

Colorado Dual Eligible Demonstration
Passive Enrollment discussed at CPWD
CPWD held a Medicaid forum to hear directly from the state of Colorado about the Medicaid and Medicare Dual Eligibility Demonstration. The state is looking for ways to cut costs around this group of beneficiaries because they see the cost to the state as disproportionately high.
The most controversial point of the dual eligibility demonstration was the proposal to "passively enroll" people into the program. A letter would be sent to dual eligible beneficiaries that they must act on or they will be enrolled in the program. A beneficiary must actively respond to the letter to "opt-out" and keep services untouched.
Ian Engle, the CPWD Executive Director, pointed out the contradiction of passive enrollment with the Independent Living philosophy. He said that the Center promotes an informed individual to actively chose and direct their care. CPWD works so people decide and select services and supports so that they may take ownership and responsibility for the decisions they make.
Passive enrollment happens regardless of a choice and often without either clear knowledge or desire. An individual is forced to respond in order to opt-out of the program. Typically knowledgeable people act in their self-interest and those that do not act miss-out on the benefit. However, the state looks to turn this around so that the uninformed will be enrolled.
The state contends that someone may choose to opt-in or opt-out to the program at anytime and to be consistent with the current Colorado legislation they believe that passive enrollment is the only way to currently proceed. Teri Bolinger from the Colorado Health Care Policy and Finance Department was clear that passive enrollment was the only method on the table. Colorado citizens would have to demand a change for the state to consider another form of enrollment.
We asked the state to make the case why an individual would want to opt-into the program, but they could only repeat the advantages to the government agencies and providers. They implied that people would benefit from a more centralized control of programs and services and it is easy to see how this would benefit the state and possibly save money; but from the perspective of an individual recipient, there is no advantage.
I believe it is reasonable to opt-out until the state can show that their demonstration will actually work for you. It is essential that even creating an efficient and effective system that those impacted are informed and understand the services provided by the state.

Governor's office media room
CONTACT: Beth Kaplan, (608) 266-1683
MADISON—The Wisconsin Department of Health Services is encouraging people to get vaccinated against influenza in light of a recent increase in confirmed cases, state officials said. Influenza rates have risen recently in Wisconsin and nationwide.
"While flu season started late this year, it is not too late to be vaccinated," said Dr. Henry Anderson, State Health Officer. "Anyone over six months old can receive the vaccine and supplies are available." This is the latest start to the influenza season in 29 years, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
Flu symptoms include fever, body aches, fatigue, headache, and sore throat, and appear one to five days after infection. Severe illness can include pneumonia.
Anderson encourages people to take precautions to protect themselves against the spread of influenza:

Cat Marnell Gives Up Her Vices
In last week's installment of her Vice column, "Amphetamine Logic," Wild child blogger Cat Marnell announced that her time at the hipster web mag was coming to an end.
"I'm writing my last columns," Cat Marnell explained when we reached her late Friday afternoon ."I almost feel addicted to them, like I could go on forever."
However, Ms. Marnell, who celebrated her 30th birthday earlier this week, is ready for her next venture. She said she has become a perfectionist. "I've just got to do it right. When you are writing weird, it's make it good or go home, you know?" Ms. Marnell noted she scrapped this week's column because she wasn't happy with it and missed her deadline.
"I miss my deadlines all the time, and my editor just has to deal with me like Jane did." Ms. Marnell was the Beauty Editor at xoJane.com until June. Ms. Marnell said she still talks to Jane Pratt all the time, and they plan to have dinner soon.
"I love her, she's the great love of my life," Ms. Marnell said of her erstwhile mentor. Read More

5 The Fault gets 5 STARS!RJMakesVids | 19/02/2012 | See all RJMakesVids's reviews (1)The Fault in our Stars was an amazing book. One of the best by John Green by far! This book has made me cry harder than I have every cried at a fictional story. I had to put down the book to compose myself before continuing. John Green is one of my favourite Young Adult Fiction writers and clearly hits the nail on the head with this book.

Practice has presented all manner of adjustments for the newcomers.
"My rudest awakening, probably, is realizing I'm not going to shoot too many layups anymore in a halfcourt set," Manning said. "Going in against Nigel [Spikes] and Yous [Mbao], you've got to shoot pull-up jumpers."
Canty said of practices in general, "It's more of a grind than I thought it would be. It seems like practices go on forever."
Herrion said his team is still searching for its identity, which is relentless rebounding and consistent defense. The Herd showed a lot of the former last year, but came up short in the latter.
"There were times where we were really good defensively, but there were too many times we weren't good enough," he said. "Not that it didn't exist, but it was too hit or miss, and that's not good enough. And that contributes to going 9-7 in conference play."

The Death of Ivan Ilyich and Master and Man (Modern Library Classics)by Leo Nikolayevich Tolstoy
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:This new edition combines Tolstoys most famous short tale, The Death of Ivan Ilyich, with a less well known but equally brilliant gem, Master and Man, both newly translated by Ann Pasternak Slater. Both stories confront death and the process of dying: In Ivan Ilyich, a bureaucrat looks back over his life, which suddenly seems meaningless and wasteful, while in Master and Man, a landowner and servant must each confront the value of the other as they brave a devastating snowstorm. The quintessential Tolstoyan themes of mortality, spiritual redemption, and lifes meaning are nowhere more movingly and deftly explored than in these two tales.
This unique edition also includes a critical Introduction and extensive notes by Ann Pasternak Slater, a Fellow at St. Annes College, Oxford. From the Hardcover edition. Synopsis:Tolstoy's arresting short novel, in which a man confronting his own untimely death grapples with the meaning — and meaninglessness — of his own life, is a spiritual masterpiece and one of Tolstoy's most widely read works.

More Van Halen talk from Sammy Hagar
It's hard to tell who Sammy Hagar is promoting more these days – his current band, Chickenfoot, or his former group, Van Halen.
Fans are confused by the mixed messages being sent by the Red Rocker: as someone who's worked hard to position himself as a nice guy, he's constantly slamming Van Halen – a band he left 8 years ago - at every turn.
The latest Hagar rant is from a new interview with L.A. Weekly.
"The fact that they're [VH] out [on tour] right now, that's so great; I'm so happy that they're out doing it - but look how long it took," says Sammy. "It's so dysfunctional and who knows how long it will last like this and I just can't be part of something like that."
"I don't think I ever slowed down and stopped trying to prove something in that damn band 'til the reunion in '04, but by then it was too late," continued Hagar. "Eddie was shot at that point, though I heard he's great now, and I'm really happy that he's supposedly sober and playing great and doing good. People think, 'Oh you hate the guy.' I don't hate the guy, I love the guy. I hate what he did in '04 to me on the reunion tour, but other than that I still love the guy."
Described as a "straight shooter to a fault" by the Times writer, Sammy was asked if he was ever worried about being too honest in his 2011 book, "Red: My Uncensored Life in Rock."
"There were a lot of times where I said, 'I really shouldn't say this.' But I felt that my fans, who've been with me all this time, deserved the real story; they need to hear why and understand why I am who I am and why I've become what I've become and how I did it and what I went through for it," responded Hagar. "I just figured at this stage of my life I'm just gonna tell the whole story. A lot of it had to do with Van Halen; there was always a controversy of who said what and 'He did this and he did that,' and I wanted to tell the truth about all that."
As straightforward as he was in "Red," one of the "real" and "whole" stories Hagar never talks about is that the 2011 book was actually his toned down, second attempt at an autobiography. Sammy worked with author David Huff on "Red Storm Arising" but bailed on the project when he reportedly got nervous about potential lawsuits by some of the parties discussed in the project. Sammy went to court in May, 1999 to prevent the book's release; two chapters were eventually leaked online (and can still be found). Read the MTV news report on the book's fate here.

As to the first part of this "interview" I don't recall reading that Eddie or anyone from VH asking him to be a part of the Group again. And secondly,Sam's so full of shit!You can tell in every word he spews about the group,all he longs for is to be back in VH,HE CAN'T STOP TALKING ABOUT THEM! The truth is that as much as he's convinced himself that he was a huge Rock Star before and,since he got booted from the group,he was at his most popular and most known for his time with VH.He knows rather it be as a Solo act,Chickenfoot,Chicken wings or Chicken shit. He'll never see another #1 album or another sold out arena and that's what he craves the most!

Yep, me thinks he doth protest too much. Poor sonofagun… I really don't blame him for being bitter, or defensive or whatever this is, Eddie seems great now, but I know I thought he went insane and off the cliff for the last decade. Gotta be frustrating for the Red One though. But he needs to understand that Roth Era VH is in the same category as the Led Z., the Stones, the Beatles, … Perhaps the 2nd to last band to change the game, the last being Nirvana, and the Hagar VH was simply a pop construct no more substantial than Bon Jovi. Tough to swallow perhaps, but he needs to stop cashing in on the fact that he used to be in VH. Just focus on Chickenfoot, lord knows no one else is going to, and live the good life. He's earned that, but he hasn't earned any right to attach himself in any way to the greatest comeback in history. He stated that the return of VH would be a disaster, that the disc would be terrible…and he was just dead wrong, and now he's trying to backpedal. Everyone knows that… at this point he's starting to look a bit over the cliff...
- March 16, 2012 at 12:10 PM
Yeah, he seems obsessed with VH. Every day there's a news item about his continual non-stop VH commentary. Get a life Sammy...

Kudos to anti-MUSIC for pointing out the inconsistencies in Sammy's positions.
I'd almost feel bad for the guy if he didn't tell lies and half-truths all the time. This tour isn't the biggest thing for fans since the 2004 Van Hagar reunion; it's the biggest thing since the 2007 TOUR WITH ROTH. The Round Rocker pretends that 2007 tour never happened. That tour was awesome and sold out arenas left and right.
The 2004 Van Hagar tour, on the other hand, didn't sell well. That's because, as someone else points out in the comments, Van Hagar and Van Halen are 2 very different bands. Van Halen's music has aged really, really well. "Why Can't This Be Love?" hasn't.
Sammy comes off bitter, and is trying way too hard to convince everyone he's happy as a clam without Van Halen. Why not just let your music do the talking, Sam? Van Halen sure is. And they ain't talking a WORD about you, Chief. What does that tell you?!?!?! - March 16, 2012 at 8:24 PM
Sammy is such a jealous baby. Get over it Sammy!!! DLR is 1,000,000 times better than you. Plus, EVH is the BEST guitar player ever. So two words,Sammy. SHUT UP.
