...Every movement of Bridges' performance reveals not just the mess Bad is, but something about the man he once was. There is a terrifically naked moment when Jean catches him watching porn on the couch, with nothing but a towel tossed over his paunch. She's embarrassed, but more important, he's mortified, and for the first time, as he attempts to gather the shambles of his dignity around him, we see that Bad is not beyond caring. Cooper nicely juxtaposes this with a later scene of Bad's seducing Jean when she's on her way out a different...
What's igniting electronics? The primary factor is price. After Circuit City went out of business earlier this year, you might have thought that Best Buy would use its "last man standing" status to its advantage and hold firm on prices.

Its coastline has sprouted archipelagoes of man-made islands shaped to represent a date palm and a map of the world...
...opponents for the GOP nomination, former Congressman Tom Campbell and state insurance commissioner Steve Poizner, throw her strengths and weaknesses into stark relief. Campbell is the kindly, well-versed uncle in the race and probably the most qualified candidate for the job. If Hollywood was casting for a man to play a governor in a movie, it would tap someone more like Campbell - with a moderate bent, a conservative suit and five terms in Congress representing Silicon Valley districts - than Arnold Schwarzenegger. When asked what distinguishes him from Whitman, Campbell says, "Experience. Government experience." But there is one other...
