...always hear snobby people dismiss hip-hop as trash. Although I am offended by what they say, I am forced to admit that sometimes it is true. Since the death of Tupac Shakur nine years ago, the hip-hop industry has just been spitting out meaningless raps over catchy beats. Thank you, Kanye, for putting life back into hip-hop.

Russian officials say these weapons did not cause the fire in the school, and tanks were called in only after all the surviving hostages had been freed. Kesayev, who was in the Russian emergency command center in Beslan throughout the crisis, also claims that the Kremlin deliberately failed to respond to an offer by moderate Chechen guerrilla leader Aslan Maskhadov (killed by Russian special forces...
