...While Rose's belly expands, Grace camps out at the bedside of Jordan (Michael Shannon), the comatose driver of the pick-up, an apparent low-life with warrants out for his arrest. She reads to him, fusses over him and orders his nurses around. When conscious, Shannon is so consistently lively and interesting (see Bug and Revolutionary Road) that we too hope he wakes up, if only to tell Grace she's lost her mind. She refuses to feel any pleasure over the impending arrival of her grandchild. "I don't want everybody thinking we're blessed," she hisses...

He believes Pacquiao's popularity plays against him: many voters don't want their national hero dirtying his hands in politics.

(Granted, the car-fee hike theoretically could be used to enhance public transit.) Rubio, meanwhile, touted his effort as speaker to eliminate property...
...site of the second attack, which came within 40 minutes of the first, was the Park Kultury metro station, a few miles southwest of Lubyanka Square. The entryway to the station was filled on Monday morning with the smell of char rising up from the deep tunnels. An ambulance driver outside the station said the death toll could be expected to rise, as hospitals were filling up with the wounded and the work of recovering the dead was still under way.
