...goes for big laughs. It offers, instead, a steady mutter of eccentric situations and, better still, a whole bunch of glum and occasionally desperate characters whose depressive natures are hinted at but never boringly explicated. They appear and disappear rather casually in the story, which the director John Dahl (Red Rock West, The Last Seduction) paces expertly. His film moves not with the speed of light, but the speed of life - a little bit hesitantly, a little bit digressively. He's not ramrodding us into submission, not force-feeding us a lot of big melodramatic scenes. Stuff keeps happening...

...yeah, he has his weird side, this bald man in a red T shirt and crisp blue jeans, telling me things that aren't quite true, trying to end the interview early, clearly disgusted by my occupation--but it's a likeable weird. When I leave, he does perhaps the strangest alpha-male thing of all, something I've never heard an interviewee do. He nods approvingly and says, "Good job."

Despite an influx of U.S. money and troops, Iraq and Afghanistan are more vulnerable to collapse in 2007 than they were in 2005, according to Foreign Policy magazine's annual Failed States Index. Based on 12 indicators of instability, including economic decline and intervention of other states, Sudan (in red, along with other countries of note) leads for the second straight year. Liberia is an African anomaly--its fair 2005 presidential election helped make it the most improved country...

...those 270 electoral votes. Playing around with the National Archives Electoral College calculator (as I did for most of my morning Wednesday) shows that it isn't impossible for Bloomberg to get enough votes to win, but it is tough indeed. The more interesting question is which reliably Red and Blue states could shift from one side to the other with Bloomberg on the ballot. Of course, determining that in a rigorous way is impossible without knowing who the other candidates will be among the various possible combinations (the all-New York match up of Giuliani versus Clinton versus Bloomberg...
