...electorate - the fourth in five if one looks beyond the posthumous regard accorded Ronald Reagan - reveals more about us than about him. It is no accident that the past three decades have seen the rise of sound-bite politics, of snarky bloggers and strident talk radio, not to mention cable "news" largely preoccupied with the trivial, the tactical and the tawdry. Factor in an ever more fragmented audience, and the bully pulpit of Teddy Roosevelt's imagination is in constant danger of being drowned out by a Twittering choir...

...hammering on your ankles and the angst of launching yourself into four revolutions over a sheet of unforgiving ice. Plus, if you fall on the quad, it's an automatic 1.0-point deduction and a downgrade of the jump to however many rotations you actually completed, not to mention those deductions for not executing the jump. "What it would take to make it less risky and more rewarding for people to try it would be not penalizing them for falling or under-rotating the jump as much as they do," says Wylie.

One was Stone; another was Cameron, with whom she remains friendly, and whose techno-thriller story Strange Days she made into...

...dirt starts moving next year. Meanwhile, Republican politicians who don't believe in global warming and didn't even want the word French in their fries can't stop talking about French nuclear plants that slash French emissions and produce 80% of French electricity.

...Lebanon as its most glorious moment, when its proxy Hizballah forced the West and Israel out of Lebanon. It left Hizballah with the enviable reputation of being the only force in the Middle East to have beaten both the West and Israel. Not to mention that Hizballah is now the de facto government in Lebanon. No wonder the IRGC would like an encore in the West Bank and Gaza, where it has been arming militants for more than a decade...
