...Afghanistan and Pakistan to meet in order to retain the commitment of U.S. troops and money to the conflict. But long-standing corruption and incompetence can't be quickly eradicated. "The Pakistani and Afghan governments are both next to useless when it comes to this issue," Democratic Representative Dave Obey of Wisconsin, chairman of the House Appropriations Committee, tells TIME.

...intent on destroying Radio Rock. His outraged caricature is particularly evident during a scene in which he casually threatens to outlaw one of his subordinate’s haircuts. Nick Frost’s (“Shaun of the Dead”) portly and shameless ladies man, Dr. Dave, consistently cracks jokes and snarky comments, despite being of little importance to the film’s plot. Another character named Thick Kevin (Tom Brooke) justifies his namesake during a frustrating game of Taboo; in the hopes that his teammate will know exactly who he means, he describes Jesus...
