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.

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.
