...Shouts of “Petros! Petros!” could be heard even during the announcements asking the freshmen to stop dancing on the tables (the lone HUPD officer could only wave his flashlight at them) and stay away from the area behind the DJ booth. But Shields wasn’t the only center of attention. At one point in the evening, eight unself-conscious freshmen squared off in a contest for an iPod touch. The competitor with the most applause was Sam From Grays (otherwise known as Sam O. French ’12), a Londoner...

...know if I ever hit anyone, it was always dark," says a 50-year-old truck driver and occasional DJ who gives his name only as Hans-Holger. He is recalling the days when, as a 19-year-old border guard for the old German Democratic Republic, he was required to shoot at fellow citizens trying to flee to West Germany. Later, he himself served a 17-month prison sentence for attempting to escape the GDR. Still, he's nostalgic for the old East, which is why he's a regular at "Zur Firma," an East Berlin pub whose theme...

...social world, which still challenges its guests to hone the skill of keeping a full pint from spilling in a swaying crowd. By day, twentysomethings sporting hoodies and complicated haircuts tap away on laptops next to pots of muddy coffee. At night, they reconvene - with beer and a DJ - to fortify themselves against the 36°F (2°C) temperatures and get over Reykjavík's claustrophobia (it's a city of just 117,000). In November, days are roughly six hours long, which means Friday night starts early and goes very, very late...

...afford clearances for pop songs, Mackenzie papered the soundtrack with rock and doo-wop numbers written by Anthony Hilder and performed by his group The Revels (one of whose songs, "Comanche," is played in Pulp Fiction.) All the dialogue from TV shows and movies, all the commercials and DJ patter, Mackenzie's team made that up too. Nearly four years after it was begun, the film had its premiere at the 1961 Venice Film Festival and was bought by a U.S. distributor, but it was licensed only in a 16mm version to schools and churches. It never received a proper...
