Genius!

Every year, the MacArthur Foundation gives a bunch of no-strings-attached money to people from various fields. These fellowships are usually called the "genius grants" because, well, the people that get them are geniuses (or at least are supposed to be). This year's list includes Dr. Terry Belanger, founder of the Rare Book School and all-around book nerd. Congratulations, Dr. Belanger! We fellow bookworms salute you!

On a more shallow note, take a gander at Fazal Sheikh. So, so pretty...
