...Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou. If you go with it, you'll love the film. If you don't, you'll just sit there wondering how (and why) Wes Anderson, the director and a co-writer (with Noah Baumbach), thought this thing up, talked someone into financing it and somehow drew you the viewer into spending good money on this exercise in deadpan postmodernism...

...that forecasters thought had little bearing on day-to-day weather. Thanks to the discovery of the AO, that view of the stratosphere is changing. Among other things, scientists studying the AO have connected sudden warmings of the stratosphere to outbreaks of wintry weather in Europe and the U.S. Somehow, scientists think, these spikes in stratospheric temperatures weaken the winds that swirl around the Arctic, thereby allowing frigid air to spill out of polar regions and envelop cities like Boston and New York, Berlin and Paris in teeth-chattering cold. Conversely, when stratospheric temperatures cool, strong winds at the surface...

...people can even vote--it's a remarkable experience." Bush views his decision to press for the transformation of Afghanistan and then Iraq--as opposed to "managing calm in the hopes that there won't be another September 11th, that the Salafist [radical Islamist] movement will somehow wither on the vine, that somehow these killers won't get a weapon of mass destruction"--as the heart of not just his foreign policy but his victory.
