Charles Ives: The Unanswered Question (1906)
Not only was Ives writing the most heady stuff when Milton Babbit wasn’t even a twinkle in someone’s eye, but the dude basically invented estate-planning. How those things fit together, I’ll never be certain. Ives is a true American hero that is (and was) too often ignored. Ives was born 135 years ago today.

notes Rep. Alan Grayson (D-FL) has bigger balls than the entire rest of the Democratic party put together.The Republicans are serious about getting rid of me, because they are scared. They have already set up a site to attack me. And the reason is simple; they don’t want my tough attitude to rub off on other Democrats. And the Democrats aren’t sure what to think about this new, I don’t know what you call it, truthtelling?
This guy is amazing.

notes"Buried among the slew of papers about the new find is one about the creature’s sex life. It makes fascinating reading, especially if you like learning why human females don’t know when they are ovulating, and men lack the clacker-sized testicles and bristly penises sported by chimpanzees.
[boring]
If the female knew when she was fertile, she could basically cheat the system by taking all the food offered by her milquetoast of a provider, then cuckold him with a dominant male when she was ovulating, scoring the best of both worlds. The food-for-sex contract thus depends on what Lovejoy calls “the most unique human character”—ovulation that not only goes unannounced to the males of the group, but is concealed even from the female herself.
