...Andrew, a wife, even a nice one like Anna, is by definition a ball and chain. Arriving uninvited and unannounced in the middle of the night, he is wildly enthusiastic, proclaiming his love for Ben with ferocious bear hugs and many "I love you, man"s. Anna he waggles his finger at, telling her, "And you. I don't love you yet, but I will." (This might be a threat.) Her eyebrows arch delicately, conveying not just mild horror but consternation over her own reaction. She knows she's too cool to be ruffled and jealous...

...biggest individual carbon emitters. And the study doesn't take into account the carbon that is embedded in imports and exports in global trade. But big developing nations like China - with its rising middle class - won't be let off the hook either. "We think this represents a nice path for distributing the share of the work of cutting emissions between countries," says Chakravarty.

...movie tips its veneration of Dillinger in an early heist scene when, as he vaults over a bank partition, the camera goes briefly into slo-mo; it's like Leni Riefenstahl filming the Olympics of bank-robbing. Depp's John is nice to the ladies, especially the Franco-Native American Billie Frechette (Marion Cotillard), and quick with the quips - as in his one brief face-to-face with Purvis (Christian Bale): "What keeps you up nights, Mr. Dillinger?" "Coffee...

...smiley face as they explode, but that's about as high-tech as it gets. What is the cutting edge right now in firework technology? Fourth of July fireworks are ageless. It's really a misnomer to try and get a "cutting edge." As long as it's a nice show and has a certain continuity to it, people love...
