Excerpt characterizing Rostovtsev, Pavel Alexandrovich

In the middle of this new story, Pierre called to the commander-in-chief.
Pierre entered the Count Count Crime. Mensor, wrinkling, rubbed his forehead and eyes with hand, while Pierre entered. A low person said something and as soon as Pierre entered, fell silent and came out.
- BUT! Hello, the Warrior is great, "said Mozchatchin, as soon as this man came out. - I heard about your pruesesses [Evidence]! But not the point. Mon Cher, Entre No, [Between us, my cute,] Are you a Mason? Said the Count crusher strict tone, as if something was bad in this, but that he intended to forgive. Pierre was silent. - MON CHER, JE SUIS BIEN INFORME, [I, kindly, everything is well known,] But I know that there are masons and masons, and I hope that you do not belong to those who, under the guise of salvation, they want to destroy Russia.
"Yes, I am a Mason," Pierre answered.
- Well, you see, my dear. You, I think, is not unless that the Lord Speransky and Magnitsky sent to where it follows; The same was done with Mr. Klyuharated, the same with others, who, under the guise of the construction of the temple of Solomon, tried to destroy the temple of their fatherland. You may understand that there are reasons for it and that I could not see the director's local mail, if he would not be a harmful person. Now I know that you sent him your own. The crew for lifting from the city and even that you have taken off the paper for storage. I love you and I do not wish you evil, and how you are two times younger than me, then I, as a father, advise you to stop any intercourse with this kind of people and leave here, from here as soon as possible.
- But what, the graph, the blaze wines? - asked Pierre.
"This is my business to know and not to ask you," crushed crushed.
- if he was accused of spreading Napoleon's proclamation, then it was not proven, "said Pierre (without looking at the damn), - and Vereshchagin ...
- Nous Y Voila, [So,] - Suddenly frowning, interrupting Pierre, even louder than the former cried in cropping. - Vereshchagin, a traitor and a traitor who will receive a deserved execution, "said Mozchatchin with the heat of the evil, with whom people say when memories of insult. "But I did not call you in order to discuss my affairs, and in order to give you advice or order, if you want it." I ask you to stop intercourse with such gentlemen as Klyucharev, and go from here. And I am a fool, in whom it would be. - And, probably, having triggering that he seemed to be shouted on a mess, who had not yet to blame for anything, he added, friendly Pierre's hand: - Nous Sommes a La Veille D "Un Desastre Publique, Et Je N" AI Pas Le Temps De Dire Des Gentilleses a tous Ceux Qui Ond Affaire a Moi. Heart sometimes goes around! EH! Bien, Mon Cher, QU "EST CE QUE Vous Faites, Vous Personnellement? [We are on the eve of a common disaster, and I have no time to be kind with everyone, with whom I have a deal. So, the courtesy, what are you doing, you personally?]
- Mais Rien, [yes nothing,] - answered Pierre, all without lifting the eye and without changing the expressions of a thoughtful face.
The count frowned.
- Un Conseil D "Ami, Mon Cher. Decampez et Au Plutot, C" EST TUT CE QUE JE Vous DIS. A BON ENTENDEUR SALUT! Goodbye, my cute. Oh, yes, "he shouted to him from the door, - Is it true that the Countess got into the feet of Des Saints Peres de La Societe de Jesus? [Friendly advice. Select rather, that's what I will say you. Blessed, who knows how to obey! .. Holy Fathers of the Jesus Company?]
Pierre said nothing and, frowning and angry, how he had never seen him, left the damnation.

When he arrived home, it was already felt. Man eight different people visited him this evening. Secretary of the Committee, Colonel of its battalion, managing, butler and different settlers. Everyone had things before Pierre, which he had to resolve. Pierre did not understand anything, was not interested in these matters and gave all the questions only such answers that would have freed him from these people. Finally, remaining alone, he printed and read a letter of his wife.
"They are soldiers on the battery, Prince Andrei killed ... old man ... Easy is the humility to God. It is necessary to suffer ... the value of everything ... you need to match ... The wife is married ... you need to forget and understand ... "And he, approaching bed, not undressing fell on her and immediately fell asleep.
When he woke up on the other day in the morning, the butler came to report that from the Count Malustacchin came on purposely sent police officer - learn whether the Count of Lyuhov was left or leaving.
A man ten different people who are dealing to Pierre, waited for him in the living room. Pierre hurriedly dressed, and, instead of going to those who expected him, he went to the rear porch and from there went to the gate.
Since then, before the end of the Moscow ruin, none of the houses of dough, despite all the search, did not see more Pierre and did not know where he was.

Rostov until September 1, that is, before the eve of the enemy entry into Moscow, remained in the city.
After the arrival of Petit in the regiment of the Cossacks of Obolensky and leaving him to the White Church, where this regiment was formed, fear was found on the countess. The idea that both of her son are in the war, that both of them left under her wing, which is now or tomorrow each of them, and maybe both together, like three sons one familiar, can be killed in the first Once now, this summer, with cruel clarity came to her head. She tried to reconsider Nikolai to himself, she wanted to go to Pet herself, to determine him somewhere in St. Petersburg, but also it was impossible. Petya could not be returned differently, like with a regiment or by transfer to another operating regiment. Nikolai was somewhere in the army and after his last letter, in which he described his meeting in detail with Prince Marya, did not give him a hearing. The Countess did not sleep at night and when he fell asleep, saw in a dream killed sons. After many tips and negotiations, the Count came up with finally a means to calm Countess. He translated Petya from the shelf of Obolensky to the Shelch of Bezukhov, who was formed under Moscow. Although Petya and remained in military service, but at the same time the translation of the Countess had a consolation to see, although one son was under the sleeve and hoped to arrange her Petya so as not to let him down and write it to such a place of service, wherever he could not get in battle. So far, one Nicolas was in danger, the decanter seemed to (and she even died in this) that she loves the older most of the rest of the children; But when the smaller, Shalun, badly studied, who broke into the house and all the braking Petya, this smoky Petya, with his cheerful black eyes, fresh bliss and a slightly piercing fuch on the cheeks, got there, to these big, terrible, cruel men who, who are There they fight something and something is joyful in this, then the mother seemed to be that he loved her more, much more than all his children. The closer the time was suitable when the expected Petya had to return to Moscow, the more concern to the Countess. She thought already that would never wait for this happiness. The presence of not only Sony, but also the beloved Natasha, even her husband, annoyed the Countess. "What do I care about them, I don't need anyone, besides Petit!" - she thought.
In the recent days of August, Rostov received a second letter from Nicholas. He wrote from the Voronezh province, where he was sent for the horses. This letter did not calm down. Knowing one son outside the danger, she began to worry about Petya even more.
Despite the fact that from the 20th of August, almost all familiar growth was vicious from Moscow, despite the fact that everyone persecuted the Council to leave as soon as possible, she did not want to hear anything about the departure until her treasure would be back, adored Peter. On August 28, Peter arrived. Painfully passionate tenderness, with which mother met him, did not like the sixteen-year-old officer. Despite the fact that the mother hid his intention from him not to let him down now from under his wing, Petya understood her ideas and, instinctively fearing that with her mother would not be discharged, not to wove it (so he thought himself with him), he walked around With her, I avoided it and during my stay in Moscow exclusively held the Society of Natasha, to which he always had a special, almost in love with fraternal tenderness.
According to ordinary carelessness of the graph, on August 28, nothing has not been ready for departure, and expected from the Ryazan and Moscow villages for lifting from the house of all property came only the 30th.
From August 28 to August 31, all Moscow was in trouble and movement. Every day, thousands of wounded in the Borodino battle were imported in Moscow, and thousands of it were imported and delivered in Moscow, and thousands of approach, with residents and property, went to other outposts. Despite the sweepings of the damnation, or independently of them, or as a result of them, the most contradictory and strange news were passed through the city. Who talked about the fact that it was not ordered to leave anyone; Who, on the contrary, told that they raised all the icons from the churches and that everyone was sent forny; Who said that there was still a battle after Borodino, in which the French are broken; Who spoke, on the contrary, that all Russian army was destroyed; Who spoke about the Moscow militia, which will go with the clergy in front of three mountains; who slowly told that Augustine was not kept to leave that the traitors were caught that the men rustle and rob those who leave, etc., and so on. But it was only talked, but in essence, and those who drove, and in essence, and those that remained (despite the fact that there were no advice in the films, on which it was decided to leave Moscow), "everyone felt, although they did not show it that Moscow would certainly pass it and that it would be necessary to remove himself as soon as possible and Save your property. It was felt that everything suddenly had to break and change, but before the 1st day nothing had changed. As a criminal who lead to the execution, he knows that here it must die, but still looks around himself and corrects the bad hat, and Moscow involuntarily continued his usual life, although he knew that he had died closely when everything would be broken The conditional relations of the lives that are accustomed to subjugate.

Pavel Rostovtsev - The most famous of the existing biathletes of Russia.

Pavel He began with running for long distances, and he studied to shoot became 14 years old at his father. By 17 years Rostovtsev Switched to biathlon. His father was a skier's athlete (he headed the Department of Physical Culture of the Kovrov Technological Institute) and the first coach of the Son. Alexander Rostovtsev Found Paul and the first serious coach - Valery Soolnikova. To train him Rostovtsev In 1995, he moved to Krasnoyarsk.

Since the beginning of the 1995/1996 season Rostovtsev - Member of the main composition of the national team. He performs at the stage of the World Cup in Slovakia, and then rides with the team and the World Cup in German Ruhpolding. True, in Germany Pavel I did not speak: there he was taken by the spare such asces like Tarasov and Drachev. But in front of the Olympiad in Nagano in March 1997, the coach of the Soilnikov dies. And six months there is another tragedy - the father of Paul dies. As says Pavel, Father taught him the main thing: "Miracles do not happen. You need to work a lot to achieve the goal. Believe in yourself and wait for your own hour." From the crisis of the leader, the national team displays a new mentor - Konstantin Ivanov.

From the year 2000 Pavel - In the elite of world biathlon. Star Rostovtsev He climbed when he won three silver medals at the World Championships - in the sprint, grief and mass start. One year later Pavel spoke even better. Although for the 2001 World Cup in Slovenian Pokhloch, he had only one victory on the World Cup stage, this did not prevent his triumph. In the sprint and in the pursuit race, he won two gold medals. After the first big victory in his career Rostovtsev It was not in a hurry to celebrate, and focused on the next race. "I was able to conquer two gold, because I did not allow the feelings to defeat me," said later Pavel.

And in the Olympic season Rostovtsev Won in the pokletuka race by 20 kilometers, and as the biathletes themselves say, he "shot like a cowboy, and ran like his horse." In Oberhof Pavel He broke his competitors in the sprint and in the race of persecution and until the last stages were leading in the overall standings of the World Cup, although he gave way to Raphael Poire.

Rostovtsev He says that the sport helped him to work out the qualities that help him cope with the problems: "Life in Russia is not similar to European. To succeed, the ability to concentrate on the main thing and not distracted." If not biathlon, the center of his life, believes PavelFamily would have become.

the Multiple World Champion Biathlonist Pavel Rostovtsev was considered the main Russian golden hope of Games in Salt Lake City. He albeit at a fairly high level, but remained without awards. And then in the last races of the season missed victory and in the World Cup

At the Olympics, everything was very nervously

The season turned out to be ambiguous. If we estimate in general, of course, not the worst. I became the second in the overall standings of the World Cup, and this is the best result in my career. The second place is a great success, it got me in a tough struggle, no one given him. Moreover, until the last stage, despite my unimportant state, I retained the chances of winning a crystal cup. Well, as it is an estimate of the season - and the last four years - is given on the results of the Olympic Games, then my speech cannot be recognized as successful. It is not failing, no. But the results that were waiting for certain reasons in Salt Lake City show failed. In all races, I occupied the place not further than the sixth - it is strong. However, I would agree three times to be the fiftieth, but to win some medal.

- The results affected the story with the wrong blood intimacy for doping test?

No, of course, no. I did not invent the story: the blood fence was held with a violation of the regime, all procedural norms. The needle was some kind of huge, and blood took more than they had. To the question: why it happened - I still have not answered. But all this did not have a decisive value. Even now I can not definitely say: if this did not happen, it would be a prize.

- What was crucial then?

My emotional, psychological state during games. After all, it was physically ready very good. Recently looked a video of the sprint race, looked fearfully. And I can confirm as a professional: Rostovtsev was in good physical form. But I could not realize myself in the Rifle Plan, especially when shooting standing. And shooting is always psychology. On the Olympics we all felt depressed, clamped. Everything was somehow very nervously and tense.

- Why did you feel the depressed and clamped?

From me too much, everyone was waiting for the result. Constantly hesitated, including journalists: Rostovtsev - our banquensers, Rostovtsev - our hope ... And I did not cope with the leader's burden. Perhaps on my condition affected the atmosphere in which we lived. The conditions are excellent - thanks to sponsors from Rosneft, biathlonists had a big house, satellite antenna, with the help of which we were constantly watched by the channel "Our Movies". But now I am sure that it would be better if we lived in a hotel along with rivals. But why we did not live there - you need to ask Viktor Fedorovich Mamatova. A year before the Olympiad, when the World Cup stage was held in Salt Lake City, he stated the organizers: we are not going to live here. With anyone at the same time without consulting.

I wanted to carry the flag on the opening

- I was already asked in Salt Lake, why didn't you carry the Russian flag on the opening. Is it true that the presidential president of OKR Leonid Tyharachev suggested that the role of the bannamers suggested?

It is more correct to say - such a proposal came from the Higher Sports Guide. When they announced that it was me that I was chosen by a banner, we were already on the collection in the USA. And the first thing I told Valery Alekseevich Medvedtsev, our coach for shooting, which at the 1992 games in Alberville was also a banquena. He explained: "It is hard physically and psychologically. I recommend to abandon the role of the bannamers. Understand, except for officials, it is not necessary for anyone. No one remembers that I carried the flag ..."

- I remember.

I remembered too. The boy also watched the Karelin flag in Seoul in 1988, Medvedz - in Alberville in the 92nd, Chepikov - in Lillehammer in 94th ... In the boyish heart, these television frames smelled. Therefore, I allowed myself to doubt the words of the coach. I thought for a long time, but still accepted the decision: I won. And then - already in Salt Lake - we somehow returned from training. The head coach of Alexander Andreyevich Golezoles fell to me. And he began to talk: "At the general rehearsal, the opening yesterday was so cold ... and everything is so long ... to decide, of course, you, but the leaders agree that two days for recovery are not enough." And when they returned to the house, I was told: I came to Taikachev, I waited for you - I did not wait. However, I wanted to talk: whether to carry the flag or not. And in the evening at the meeting, I was already simply put before the fact: it was decided that I did not carry the flag. Then I tried not to give in to emotions, focused on preparing for the race. But now I think: I had to bear the flag. Although, of course, we are all smart.

For the cup fought until the last

"One of the coaches of the national team admitted to me:" After the Olympics, we did not expect that Rostovtsev will take the World Cup. " And how did you think?

Even in Salt Lake City, being not in the best condition, hoped: how I, returning to Russia, to build preparation for the remaining stages of the World Cup. How to build it so that it is worthy to perform - and compete for the main prize. If specifically: I decided not to travel home, in Krasnoyarsk - in this case, the difference in the belts would not be so big. Laugh at mom in the carpet. However, unfortunately, the preparation was noted as I wanted. It rained in the carpet ... and if the Europeans have the Germans, the Austrians - in the villages where they live, there are excellent tracks that are preparing retaras daily, I didn't even find "Buran". So, wandered on skis in the forest ... And since for this period there was an acute acclimatization, then the basic work did not spend either. In addition, for financial reasons, I could not take the steps of a person who helped the whole season to prepare skis. His absence immediately affected: problems began. Of the seven post-polympic starts - two in Ostermund, two in Lahti and three in Hollymeni - in four I appreciated the training of skis on "unsatisfactory."

- But you won one of the races in Ostersert ...

I repeat once again: the training potential, which I somehow managed to accumulate in the carpet, only only two starts in Ostersund. It was not bad to move in Lahti in the sprint. Ski then well worked well. But already in the mouth everything was very bad.

- I understood correctly: did you spread the cup in advance?

No, no, no, I fought until the end. For each race was adjusted, in each laid out completely. It did not allow any posts in mode. The struggle was, but I could no longer reverse the situation. Peak forms passed, all emotions splash out. It was no longer the Rostovtsev who was accustomed to the audience and rivals.

- Rostovtsev has a personal service manager. After all the events, Rostovtsev needs a personal psychologist?

You can only dream about it. We talked about this topic with the senior coach. But where to take a person who, as Golev said, did not lie in the soul, but understood. Now everything leads to an example of cooperation of the figure of Yagutina and the psychologist Zagaininov. But my attention, honestly, did not have enough to track all the nuances here.

Become an asthmatics refused

-Who not the first year in a row you are extremely unsuccessful on the finish of the season. Why?

During this period, everything is more difficult for me with each start and more difficult to recover. Especially with the medical provision, which is in the Russian national team. It is difficult to count on something in the spring. I just lack the laid base for the whole season.

- What is specifically missing?

Yes, nothing is missing! Nothing. But the main problem is the lack of a medical program. Of course, Dr. Team is trying to do something. But we do not receive support from the medical line from the Olympic Committee and the State Committee. But in Sports in Soviet times, there were integers, which issued recommendations: what drugs in what situation to use. It is foolish now to deny that the athletes do not accept anything. To transfer the most severe loads without medication support the body cannot.

- Are you talking only about regenerating drugs?

Of course! Only on allowed drugs. We do not pay doping. There were no doping scandals in Biathlon.

- But he seems to be brewing. You did not want to sign up for asthmatics - as Norwegian Andresien, like a Frenchman Poire?

It is hard for me to say that Andresien and Poire asthmatics - I myself have never seen them so that they splashed to themselves something before the start. Although conversations, of course, go. And we were offered: And let's write you in asthmatics, you will be on an equal footing. However, then as asthmatics began to slowly narrow, and we thought - it is better to equal our chances in this way. But Russian officials turned out to be weak to prolob the ban on the use of anti-asthma drugs. And something to change, start experimenting for the year to the Olympic Games is incorrectly and tactically, and strategically. It was necessary to try before.

Now serious decisions are not ready to accept

- Olympics passed, the season ended. Rostovtsev forgot everything?

No, I did not forget and did not survive. You do not give (laughs.) I am generally emotional man, I can not say "just so," all the time I mentally return to the past events. I remember - and again the wounds begin to bleed.

- The feeling of guilt is not the best ...

This is not a sense of guilt - I have nothing to blame. I struggled. I did everything that was capable at every moment. But if four years ago did not get upset that I didn't get on the game (I was not ready to fight at the highest level), now the worm is grating. I could show the result. But at the crucial moment did not realize the potential.

- The question is general, but very important: what's next?

I do not know. I'm so tired of biathlon morally and physically, which is not ready to make important decisions. Now you need to relax, kill the accumulated negative positive emotions. But even in a couple of months with a fresh head, I think I can not quite definitely say, I will prepare for the 2006 Olympic Games or not. After all, to Turin for another four years.

- Not about the next Olympics, but about the next season you can say something concrete?

For the Russian national team, it will be no less responsible than the Olympic. The main competitions will be held on the Russian land - in Khanty-Mansiysk. It is necessary to speak, and act worthy. But how I will be prepared - I have not yet decided. Perhaps some fees will spend separately from the team. I repeat: I'm tired. Including from the team. But this is normal: when people for 6-8 months in a year are together, nearby - begin to annoy each other.

"You know what needs to be done to again wanted to take a rifle in the hands, stand on skis, go to the start?"

By tradition, I will hold a collection in Kamchatka. Be careful there. I buy in thermal sources - very useful for the musculoskeletal system. Ride on skiing. And on beam - in case. Me Energy Kamchatka always drinks forces and emotions. And then with his wife and son we will go somewhere on the warm seas. I want to swim, lie down-sunbathing. And so that no one has known around: who I am and what I have problems.
