Today we looked at the unveiling of North Korea's glorious Twitter account. It's crazy and funny and, in the way of most everything from that country, troubling. One commenter wanted to help them out by giving them a friendly suggestion.

So there's actually a Western-themed rap song and video about nominating professor and tough TARP overseer Elizabeth Warren to head the new Consumer Financial Protection Bureau. (Which Obama should do!) It's strangeness is only matched by its importance, to nerds.

Michael Douglas says his doctors discovered a cancerous tumor in his throat. He'll undergo two months of chemotherapy and radiation, but says he's "very optimistic" he'll make a full recovery. Does this mean we have to like Wall Street 2?

This isn't something you see every day: a video of a man in a Stormtrooper costume—plus his two little, computer-generated comrades—dancing to an instrumental, electropop version of "Singin' In The Rain." The force is strong with these ones.

Ice Cream War! Watch as a brawl erupts between two ice cream truck drivers—one of the famous Mister Softee franchise and the other a NO NAME LOSER—over a parking dispute near Columbus Circle. Or, just another NYC afternoon.

Finally, after months of jostling and competition and speculation, they've gone and cast the lead girl for that buzzed-about Dragon Tattoo movie. Let's never speak of it again. Also today: Clint Eastwood news, X-Men casting, and Angelina Jolie as Marilyn?

Where have the crazy town hall protests been during this summer congressional recess? One of the few incidents we've seen happened in Michigan today, when old Sen. Carl Levin, chair of the Armed Services Committee, got pie'd.

Although best watched with 3D glasses, one can still get a feel for what director Keiichi Matsuda is trying to convey. He's implying that our future is filled with constant connection to information, which has both positive and negative consequences.

Hero flight attendant Steven Slater has hired PR honcho and crisis specialist Howard Bragman to handle his press. Yes, he's famous now! They even attended a Barry Manilow concert together. Nothing seals a gay deal like a shared Manilow experience!

While some families of 9/11 victims have spoken out against the Islamic community center to be built blocks from Ground Zero, it's incorrect to claim that "the 9/11 families," in general, oppose it. Hundreds have actually endorsed the plan.

Vanilla Ice gets a show about home renovations, Paris Hilton wants to be on True Blood, JetBlue's Steven Slater is being offered a reality show, The Millionaire Matchmaker is suddenly single, Zac Efron gets an invite on Man Vs. Wild.

Some things are small miracles, like a child's smile. And then there are big miracles, like when a stolen fragment of the True Cross is returned by a mysterious transient, who disappears. How in-your-face does Jesus have to be? Jesus.

Teams came from all over the city to compete in Gawker Media's second annual beer pong tournament this past Saturday. The day was beautiful, the music was blaring, and there was beer a-plenty. Inside, a look at what went down.

Eric Schmidt's apparently trying to become tech's creepiest executive. The Google CEO outlined his dystopian vision of the future, in which children change their names at adulthood to escape damning online dossiers — dossiers of the sort stored by Google.

TONIGHT: Lots of TV! We've got the series premiere of The Big C, the season premiere of Weeds, new episodes of Bachelor Pad, Huge, The Closer, The Real Housewives of New Jersey, Dating in the Dark, and much more!

Anyone who works in journalism will tell you there's supposed to be a wall between editorial and advertising. Not so on NBC.com's comedy trifle FCU: Fact Checkers Unit, which is just another mildly-entertaining excuse for product placement.

How bad is it that this ridiculous video of joke South Carolina Senate candidate Alvin Greene, recently indicted, literally "howling and moaning" at a reporter, isn't even a gaffe by his standards? Just another day on the trail.

Don't get us wrong, it's good to keep it real with your friends, but as far as neighbors go? Thanks, but keep it to yourself. Watch Bonnie Hunt tell us how her neighbor let her know she was gaining weight.
