Dark Knight vs Titanic
Note: My take: It will make it to #2 fairly easily, and probably top the $500m mark. But it will take a commitment from the studio to market the film more and let it run for longer than the typical blockbuster to break $600m. If the studio is proud, and they want the record, I think it's theirs for the taking. If they take the greedy route and push it to dvd asap, then it doesn't stand a chance. Predictions: $300m broken on Sunday, then $400m broken by August 6th, then taking over the #2 spot by August 15th.

Profiteers?: 25 Companies That Benefit From The War
Note: The Iraq war is many things to different people. It is called a strategic blunder and a monstrous injustice and sometimes even a patriotic mission, much to the chagrin of rational human beings. For many big companies, however, the war is something far different: a lucrative cash-cow.

Convert it to a biodiesel or plug-in hybrid and give it to an organization that can use it to do something great? This guy will use the best idea he gets...

Mystery Explosions Point to Iran's Secret Arms Shipments to Terrorists
Note: July 25, 2008 - Telegraph - Con Coughlin in Vienna - For an organisation that prides itself on being a well-run administrative machine, the leadership of Iran’s Revolutionary Guards is having a rather testing time. It’s not just last Saturday’s mysterious explosion in a suburb of Tehran that killed 15 people that is causing the leadership sleepless nights, although the nationwide news black-out imposed immediately afterwards does suggest the Revolutionary Guards, the storm troops of Iran’s Islamic Revolution, are rattled.
