...There's still a slim possibility Alitalia can be saved. Air France-KLM or German carrier Lufthansa might make a new offer, or the Italian consortium could reconsider if the labor syndicates show more leeway. But the likelier scenario is that Italy's national carrier goes under for good...
...Linda seems under-developed. Like most of the characters, she often evokes our pity, but never our compassion. Chad, on the other hand, endears with a doltish charm that embraces the gym rat stereotype. He is a caricature that Pitt obviously delights in playing, but the other cast members labor to find substance where not much exists.

In the days ahead, the new party head will try to lock up support from Kadima's current coalition partners - the dovish Labor Party, a group representing pensions and the ultra-Orthodox Shas Party - which could give her a slim majority in the 120-seat Knesset, or Israeli parliament. But Shas is making demands on Livni, such as pushing for an increase in child allowance (ultra-Orthodox families tend to be large) and making state education more religious. If Livni bends to Shas' demands, Labourites are threatening to walk...
