In front of a mural depicting Beijing's Tiananmen Square, hundreds of thousands of people take part in a candlelight vigil in Hong Kong to commemorate those who died in the crackdown on the pro-democracy movement on June 4, 1989.

[B]This Day in History:[/B] On June 4, 1989, tanks rolled into Tiananmen Square, crushing China’s student protests. More than 20 years later, despite heavy censorship on the mainland, it’s an anniversary activists still mark online.

[B]This Day in History, Part II:[/B] On June 4, 1976, 10-cent Beer Night in Cleveland, Ohio went horribly, horribly wrong. ([I][URL="http://www.mentalfloss.com/blogs/archives/128853"]Mental Floss[/URL][/I])
[B]Another Use for a Dead Cat:[/B] Dutch artist Bart Jansen has turned his dearly departed cat Orville into a bitchin’ remote control helicopter. This is possibly the creepiest thing we’ve seen all day, and we’ve been following this story. ([I][URL="http://thedailywh.at/2012/06/04/crazyass-cat-owner-of-the-day/"]The Daily Wh.at[/URL][/I])
[B]Classic Novels and the Filmmakers Who Were Born to Direct Them:[/B] Admit it: You’d watch [I]Franny and Zooey[/I] by Wes Anderson in a heartbeat. ([I][URL="http://www.flavorwire.com/295797/classic-novels-and-the-filmmakers-who-were-born-to-direct-them"]Flavorwire[/URL][/I])
[B]The 1939 World Series, in Color:[/B] Rare, beautiful footage of the Yankees-Reds series reminds us of what baseball used to look like in the years before jumbotrons. We bet people were still complaining about the cost of peanuts, though. ([I][URL="http://www.buzzfeed.com/jpmoore/rare-color-footage-from-the-1939-world-series"]Buzzfeed[/URL][/I])
[B]The Perks of Being a Wallflower:[/B] Everyone else on the Internet is looking for this trailer, so we didn’t want to deprive you. But we’re not entirely sure what the big deal is. ([I][URL="http://thedailywh.at/2012/06/04/movie-trailer-of-the-day-157/"]The Daily Wh.at[/URL][/I])
