Act 1. Scene II
SCENE II. The Earl of Gloucester's castle.Enter EDMUND, with a letter
EDMUND
Thou, nature, art my goddess; to thy law
My services are bound. Wherefore should I
Stand in the plague of custom, and permit
The curiosity of nations to deprive me,
For that I am some twelve or fourteen moon-shines
Lag of a brother? Why bastard? wherefore base?
When my dimensions are as well compact,
My mind as generous, and my shape as true,
As honest madam's issue? Why brand they us
With base? with baseness? bastardy? base, base?
Who, in the lusty stealth of nature, take
More composition and fierce quality
Than doth, within a dull, stale, tired bed,
Go to the creating a whole tribe of fops,
Got 'tween asleep and wake? Well, then,
Legitimate Edgar, I must have your land:
Our father's love is to the bastard Edmund
As to the legitimate: fine word,--legitimate!
Well, my legitimate, if this letter speed,
And my invention thrive, Edmund the base
Shall top the legitimate. I grow; I prosper:
Now, gods, stand up for bastards!
Sometimes, Hollywood does good: Brangelina donated $1M to Doctors Without Borders for Haitian relief, Wyclef Jean is working with his Yele Haiti Foundation, and George Clooney will host an MTV-ABC-NBC-HBO-CNN-VH1 telethon, and is recruiting celebs to join up. Sting is reportedly on board. Lindsay Lohan retweeted stuff. [E!] Tila Tequila's publicist quit last night, citing "recent events." Moments later, Tila broke into a new split personality we've never seen before, that of a God-sent angel. In a series of tweets [fig.1], Tila said she and late fiancee Casey Johnson were angels sent from God, who fell in love (which is against the rules). She pledged to abandon her human identity, then announced that the surrogate child baby she is carrying is actually just going to be hers, to keep and raise on her own. [TMZ] [officialTila]
By exposing the men to taunts about their genitalia, sexually suggestive simulations, and lewd comments, the men perpetrating the harassment are seeking to embarrass and target the male victims-not sexually stimulate or "flirt" with them. "Sexual harassment is about using power in a way to hurt somebody," says Marcia McCormick, associate professor at Saint Louis University School of Law, who specializes in employment law and gender issues. In the Cheesecake Factory suit there were no allegations that supervisors were attracted to the other men-the sexual harassment was a form of intimidation, McCormick says.

Like something foretold in Ray Bradbury's The Martian Chronicles, NASA's captured what looks like trees on Mars. They're actually streaks of sand left by evaporating carbon dioxide ice (brrr!), but it's still stunning. Larger version for those who click. [HiRISE]
I love trying out new stuff and posterous is my baby for the moment. Still lots to put on here. Thoughts and mostly all the stuff I like around the internet!
