    • 450 Words
    • 2 Pages

    Van Halen In 1972 the legendary hard rock band known as Van Halen was born in Pasadena, California. From 1974 until 1989, the band consisted of guitarist Eddie Van Halen, vocalist David Lee Roth, drummer Alex Van Halen, and bassist Michael Anthony. Later in 1985 Sammy Hagar replaced David Lee Roth. The band later became famous stars, and in the early 1980s they were one of the most successful and popular rock acts of the time. The album 1994 was their most famous one yet. Their best single, "Jump", became a worldwide hit and their only single to go number one on the Billboard 100. The songs "Panama" and "I'll Wait", both were on top number 13 on the United States charts. So back to what I stated in the beginning, in 1985, the band replaced lead singer David Lee Roth with now lead vocalist Sammy Hagar. While Sammy was the lead singer the group released four U.S. number one albums over a time of 11 years. Hagar left the band in 1996 right before the band released the first greatest hits collection. So Van Halen III was released in 1998, and thrived as an album.…

    should. But the movie itself is far more insulting still. Indeed, this is probably the most anti-Semitic movie ever released by Hollywood. Tarantino’s Jewish characters are one-dimensional, inhuman monsters. The Jewish Basterds are all as ugly as Der Sturmer cartoons. They have virtually no lines in the entire movie. All they do is skulk around, waiting for Aldo the Apache’s commands to murder and torture Germans. rothpitt Eli Roth and Brad Pitt, Basterds The most prominent of the Basterds is…

    I’d like to think that Roth wrote the Portnoy’s Complaint as a satire, because of the real American Jew character, in one way endlessly comic and bitterly too. Why Portnoy complaints and what is his problem? Is his religion? Perhaps, Portnoy’s problem with his own religion is because of his family and its constant reminder that he is a Jew and that needs to obey and follow the Jew rules of life. He is overwhelmed by his mother nonstop worries the way his parents describe the “enemy” – the world…

The environment he was raised in, glorified the past and alienated people from the present. Faulkner however rejected those views and through his short story “A Rose for Emily” attacked…
