Polarities
Shawn Wilbur continues to post amazing stuff, including a couple of 1869 pieces from feminist Jenny d’Hericourt: “Morality and the Sexes” and “Woman’s Rights in France.”
Also posted: Shawn’s translation of a 1721 work with the irresistible title An Account of a Voyage from the Arctic to the Antarctic Pole by Way of the Center of the Earth. (Bear in mind that this was before Holberg’s Niels Klim’s Journey Underground, Casanova’s Icosaméron, and Symmes’ Symzonia; before Poe’s “MS. Found in a Bottle,” “Descent into the Maelstrom,” and Narrative of Arthur Gordon Pym; before Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth and Burroughs’ Pellucidar series.)

Hypothesis 2: this video influenced The Matrix.
Dark and Wintry
Upcoming films in the Avengers universe include Iron Man 3, Thor: The Dark World, Captain America: The Winter Soldier (so yes, that plotline is happening), Ant-man, and Guardians of the Galaxy. I assume the latter will tie in with the mid-credits scene in The Avengers.
The Sand Must Flow!
