...defense. And abroad there is some willingness to go along with the U.S. in the face of public resistance. Czech President Vaclav Klaus today said he supported Bush's program, despite 60% disapproval among Czechs. All of which means that even threats to target European countries are unlikely to shake the U.S.'s will to deploy, setting the two countries on an increasingly tense course for the final 18 months of Bush's Presidency...
...diesel and roses. The air conditioning had been shut off to stop the car from overheating in the crawling traffic. Disembodied hands thrust camera phones through the open windows. Bottles of cold mango juice, Chaudhry's favorite, were shoved into the back seat. When he reached out to shake hands with the crowd they kissed his knuckles instead.

The film may be more seductive than it is plausible, and it's not Breillat's most engaging work (that would be Fat Girl and its funnier remake, Sex Is Comedy). But this filmmaker's train of erotic thought...
