...office building in Santa Monica, Calif., that his assistants call the Apatower, mulling over which of several jokes to put in. One dilemma: Should Sandler dislike Mann's elder daughter because she doesn't laugh at his jokes or because she's old enough to have her period? Mind you, this is Apatow's real daughter who's playing the character - so when he asks me, as a warm body in the room, for my opinion, I keep quiet.

...mind you, in the context of the so-called six-party talks, the futile diplomatic dance that over the past five years has failed to prod the North into surrendering its nuclear weapons. Kim and Co. in April declared that forum dead and buried, and did so again on July 27 in the form of a statement from the Foreign Ministry. But at the end of that same statement, Pyongyang cryptically added, "There is a specific and reserved form of dialogue that can address the current situation...
