Gary Whitta's script, set 30 years after civilization screeched to a halt when a great "flash" (maybe a devastating bomb or the wrath of God) filled the sky, imagines a charred American Southwest littered with dead trees, debris, corpses - a landscape not even WALL-E could clean up. The desaturated color scheme makes the whole world look as if it were left outside to die, and it was. Marauding punks prey on solitary travelers for water, food and clothing. With all industrial and agricultural sectors in shambles, the fear-market system applies: survival of the meanest...
...would Carnival - which not so long ago drew the wrath of the Southern Baptist Convention for sponsoring gay cruises - suddenly back away from cougar-and-cub cruises? The Miami-based cruise company, one of the world's largest, concedes that the group's 300 or so cruisers, whose wildest event was your typical cruise-ship hot-tub party, weren't particularly loud partyers or a disturbance to other passengers.

(See why privacy is a perk at Tiger Woods' private Florida enclave...
...Johnson's biographer, described his subject as an "absolute berserker" on Eton's rugby fields. Johnson's career, both in journalism and in politics, has been marked by a fearlessness that not infrequently borders on the suicidally reckless. He rarely keeps to agreed party lines, recently incurring the wrath of Conservative leader David Cameron by going dramatically off-message on the party's European Union policy last month, provoking a Cameron aide to send him a Mafia-style text message: "La vendetta è un piatto che va mangiato freddo," or "Revenge is a dish best eaten cold." Johnson, using...
