If Trump and Tillerson pull some of this off, a battle-tested U.S.-Russian military/economic alliance would presumably constitute a counterweight to China (which, whatever else can be said about it, beats Moscow and Beijing making common cause against America; after two terms of President Obama's foreign policy impotency, Russia and China are apparently closer than ever before).

One of Russia's nuclear bureaucrats has noted with approval that by organising conferences and stimulating debate in a patriotic spirit, the country's national church had helped to preserve the nuclear arsenal and concentrate minds on the need for a strategic deterrent; this had been an important counterweight to the sloppy pacifism which maintained that Russia had no enemies.

It's tough to build a lot of strength or otherwise make progress without the incremental weights you find at a gym; it's possible, especially for upper-body stuff because your upper body muscles are relatively small and your whole body is a much better counterweight for them than for your much stronger and more capable leg muscles (I've talked about this before).

Women, from the characters' wives to the would-be one-night stands the men pick up in London, are hardly incidental to Cassavetes's portrait of frustrated masculinity, though without Gena Rowlands — his wife and muse, and the star of most of his greatest films — in the cast as a counterweight, the movie tips heavily toward one extreme of the director's vision.
