...movie premise, Rogen and Goldberg came up with a concoction that synthesizes the standard thrills of the first genre while exceeding the usual humor quotient of the second. Granted, that's not the toughest job, and Pineapple Express aims for nothing more than rowdy fun. Still, director David Gordon Green - who has made some terrific indie movies about isolated youths (George Washington, Snow Angels) and probably took this job cause he wanted to make a movie more than a handful of people would see - mixes all the ingredients to create a comedy that brings a nicely deflating note of realism...

"It's very bizarre," says Jean de Cambry, a Belgian MSF veteran of crises from Sudan to Afghanistan. "It's so green. But you have all these people dying of hunger."

...like oil and coal. You may not remember this plan, because Gore's political consultants decided it didn't "test" well. It has now been revived by Obama, who has been logging a lot of phone time with Gore. But Obama has changed the emphasis a bit to promote "green collar" job development, like programs to retrofit public buildings to conserve energy. Obama also has a new take on traditional infrastructure spending, designed to limit cronyism: a $6 billion-per-year federal infrastructure bank, where loans to states and localities would have to be approved by a bipartisan board...
