...those who can legally imbibe, this Village might be less accommodating to the night trawlers than the frat house that was Sydney. "There could be more fun," laments Adamantia Thanou, a physiotherapist for the Greek team. "In Sydney, people were out and about after midnight the entire time. Here, there's nothing going on." Thanou is probably not the best source. First, as a Greek, she has higher nightlife standards: dinner starts at about 3 a.m. in Athens.

They are roiled by restless energy, and they want to order another drink, carry it outside and watch the sun not set. (Whap! Smack! Fierce four-engine mosquitoes alter this plan...
...ratcheted so high that Dark Knight screenings were selling out online as fast as theaters could add them. The AMC South Barrington in Chicago planned to show the movie on six screens and ended up ordering more prints in order to play it on 18. A planned Friday midnight showing at Hollywood's Cinerama Dome sold out so quickly, its adjoining theater, the ArcLight, added 13 midnight screenings. Those midnight shows broke another record, earning $18.5 million, to beat out Star Wars, Episode III: The Revenge of the Sith's 2005 record of $16.9 million. And those numbers...
