- I’m a little troubled by Canada’s science minister, who won’t confirm or deny if he believes in evolution on religious grounds. [via]
- Do you remember arcades? Apparently, kids these days don’t know what they were like. I feel old. [via]

- You’ve no doubt heard by now that the Sci-Fi Channel is changing its name. I can’t really build up any excitement one way or another about this — much like with a lot of their programming lately — but I do think it’s worth noting that, as John Scalzi points out, their new name “Syfy” is a term used for veneral disease in Poland.
- I really like Dan Meth’s Series Of Pop-Cultural Charts, including the sitcom map of the United States and New York. (I work somewhere around 30 Rock and My Two Dads.) You know the scary thing, though? There’s not a single entry in his Sitcom Houses breakdown where I didn’t immediately have an image of the house in my head.
