So apparently the fans have decided that June 16th is Captain Picard Day, and by sheer coincidence I stumbled upon this on June 16th...
The original Captain Picard Day clip, from "The Pegasus" ("The Pegasus" is set on Stardate 47457.1, and if you treat 47000 as January 1st, 2370 and 48000 as January 1st, 2371, (457.1/1000)(365 days)=166.8 days into the year, which is June 16th) ThinkGeek is holding a contest to win a Captain Picard Facepalm Bust The Picard Song! A Startrek.com writer gives his top 11 Picard moments to celebrate 50 classic Picard quotes Compilation of "Engage!" and "Make it so" clips

Cats play in a cat-sized replica of the Enterprise bridge while sound bytes play.
It was made by an organization that tries to organize cat adoptions.

Beating Pokemon Red/Blue with only one Ditto.
No cheating except hacking the starter Pokeball to have a Ditto instead of Charmander/Squirtle/Bulbasaur. And having a few HM slaves to clear overworld obstacles, of course.

Apparently today is the 10th anniversary of the Periodic Videos YouTube channel. I won't link to the commemorative videos, but I will link to a few of my favorite videos:
The team "sings" the Elements Song The Periodic Table (sort of) engraved on a human hair (50 microns by 90 microns!) Destroying pumpkins using chemistry in as many ways as possible Making a birthday cake using lab equipment and as many lab chemicals as possible Cutting butter with a hot knife, a laser beam, a waterjet, and sodium hydroxide (don't eat it, it's been turned into soap!).

KittenWar!
Look at two pictures of kittens. Click the one you think is cuter. The site tells you what percentage of other voters agreed with you. Repeat.

The Straight Dope (as an official set of columns at least) is no more.
Ouch. Seriously, ouch. Links to first and last columns. Over forty-five years.

Harlan Ellison died yesterday.
It deserves comment by the forum, but I don't trust myself to make them right now.
