Every Day Kim K : Part Deux

So sue me I'm doing a part two but I felt like this particular article needed a full 2 days to discuss with you all , particularly because the ladies of Chronicles of Frivolity are so different yet fabulously complimentary of one another. If Katey is Dallas then Kristen is definitely Austin all the way, laid back effortless style through and through (head here for more of their fabulous style ). I sat Kristen down to do her makeup she said " Don't be offended if I wipe this all off after we're done shooting because I have an interview.I get it, the usual Kardashian makeup doesn't exactly scream " respectable and ready for the working world" but the point here is to show you Kardashian-esq glamour  tid bits to add to your every day!

One of the key differences in this look for Kristen vs Katey was the ways I chose to emphasize their eyes and lips . Kristin is a brunette so instead of opting for vanilla tone nudes I went toward warmer sand shades. Mac Honey Love along with a few extra touches gave her lips the perfect touch of warmth to make her look polished without being overdone. Additionally I chose to line Kristen's water line in black liner then dust the lower lash line with a soft brown shadow allowing the black liner to do its job without being too club ready. With a pair of natural lashes for some extra oomph how can you possibly go wrong ?

Kristen's response to her Kim K inspired glam ...Me Gusta !

Have questions or wanna know more about the products used to create the look ! Email me at beccaashmon@gmail.com !

Notes for The Meridian: Breath.

This section of the notes has four separate parts, breath, mortality, person and language and direction. I will deal with each of these separately but it is important to remember that they are grouped together under/within 'breath'.

For Celan, the 'finished' paragraph as it appears in 'The Meridian' is really quite explicit:

'What's on the lung, put on the tongue,' my mother used to say. Which has to do with breath. One should finally learn how to also read this breath, this breath-unit in the poem; in the cola meaning is often more truthfully joined and fugued than in the rhyme; shape of the poem: that is presence of the single, breathing one.-

Let's get the elusive stuff out of the way first. I'm sure that I'm not entirely alone in stumbling with 'cola' and I've sorted this out by looking at 'breath-unit'. Another note in this part is: '"Breath-units" (Buber); cola'- I've long been of the view that far too much critical attention is given to Heidegger's presence in the poetry and not enough attention is given to Martin Buber and the Jewish tradition. I've now found this from 'Martin Buber: The Life of Dialogue' by Maurice S. Friedman which was first published in 1955:

'The result of their endeavour was the creation of a new Biblical idiom in German which followed the original meaning of the Hebrew more faithfully than any other German translation -- or any translation in any other language -- had ever done.' The translation is set in the form of cola (Atemzüge) rhythmic units based on natural breathing pauses. These serve the purpose of recapturing the original spoken quality of the Bible.

The first sentence is a quote from Ernest M. Wolf and the translation refers to Buber and Rosenzweig's translation of the Hebrew Bible into German.

So, this emphasis on breath would seem to be an indication that the meaning of a poem is to be found by means of the 'natural breathing pauses' rather than formal notions of rhyme and meter. So, the apparently 'free' and unstructured later work may reflect this initial and oral aspect of the Bible.

This privileging of breathing pauses over line length and metre carries echos for me of Olson's 'Projective Verse' manifesto which has the same principle. What also intrigues is this idea of the joining and fuguing of meaning in the poem and how we might learn to read these pauses (units) rather than just noticing them. What also occurs to me is the problems faced by a reader who has to measure pauses in this way when all she is accustomed to is line-length and/or punctuation. The other problem for non-German speakers is whether these units are the same in other languages.

The quote from Celan's mother is perhaps an accidental expression of what some see as the central dilemma of Celan's work- his mother tongue was German- the language that he spoke at home. He was a professional translator and exceptionally able in several other languages but felt compelled to write in German despite the fact of the Holocaust and his parents' murder in the German camps. Celan also occasionally uses the exhalation of breath to signify the smoke rising from the chimneys of the Nazi crematoria. I'm not entirely convinced that this choice, and it was a choice, signifies anything other than the language he felt most proficient in rather than another means of tormenting himself. It seems to me that it's the action of breath on tongue that is important (central) here.

In order to think about this a bit more, I'd like to try the notion on one of Celan's longer poems. This is the opening ofThe Straitening which was published in 1959 in the Sprachgitter collection:

    Driven into the
    with the unmistakable track:

    grass, written asunder. The stones, white
    with the shadows of grassblades:
    Do not read any more - look!
    Do not look any more - go!

This is the original German:

    Verbracht ins
    mit der untrüglichen Spur:

    Gras, auseinandergeschrieben. Die Steine, weiße
    mit den Schatten der Halme:
    Lies nicht mehr - schau!
    Schau nicht mehr - geh!

Reading both of these versions aloud gives different breath pauses but these are also different from that suggested by the line breaks and by the punctuation. I believe that great poems need to be read aloud and this different 'dimension' perhaps can join in a fugal relationship with the other two. Whether this helps with a 'meaning' or of being 'truthful' remains to be seen. The point for me is this change in or addition to my readerly perspective.

I was going to suggest that the meaning here is reasonably apparent, a call to action in response to the Holocaust but then I started to think about this grass that is separated by writing and whether this refers to the split created by the track or whether more attention should be paid to the shadows cast by individual blades of grass. I am however hanging on to the view that the unmistakable track is the one leading to the gas chambers and that the last two lines are still a call to action as opposed to passive reflection.

This first part also contains:

    *Voice-direction (wherefrom ← ensouling
       ↕                     whererto → death, God)

This does look like a mathematical formula but attentive reading does yield a kind of sense. The only potential stumbling block is 'ensoul' for which the OED provides two definitions:

"To put or take into the soul; to unite with the soul: to be absorbed into, become part of, the (Divine soul)"

" To infuse a soul into; to fill with 'soul'. Also, to dwell in, animate, as a soul."

It would therefore appear that:

Having just written this out I realise that this is one of many possible interpretations. I originally read the death-God ending as the point of Judgement but now (Oct 2014) I'm more inclined to see this as an encounter like the one described in various branches of Jewish mysticism. The use of this abbreviated 'format' rather than sentences or phrases perhaps shows that this was either an early sketch of an idea or something that Celan wanted to remain private.

This part does help to clarify elements of the above 'equation' but it also brings further complications into the mix.

It's worth remembering that in the 'darkness' section of the notes we have "The darkness of the poem = the darkness of death. The humans = the mortals".

This both clarifies and complexifies in one sentence:

Man is a soul creature; we do not get his image from the organisation of the chromosones, we get it, - not least! - his hippocratic face -

'Soul creature' makes explicit the difference between Celan's view as opposed to the scientific and reductive perspective of chromosones. It also points toward this from the speech itself- "The always-still of the poem can indeed only be found in the work of the poet who does not forget that he speaks under the angle of the inclination of his Being, the angle of inclination of his creatureliness." taken together this seems to say that poet must be mindful of the soul as a central and essential part of his existence.

Most of us will need some help with 'hippocratic' - the OED informs me that its secondary definition is: " Applied to the shrunken and livid aspect of the countenance immediately before death, or in a case of exhaustion threatening death: so called because described by Hippocrates". It is not clear whether Celan is using the adjective to indicate the moments before death or when we experience life-threatening exhaustion or when our face appears shrunken or livid for any reason. What is made clear is that man's ensouled image is visible in extremis which is probably linked with his death. This notion of exposure and some kind of revelation of the self at the point of death is a feature of most religions but also carries with it (I must admit) something of Heidegger's notion of the authentic.

This appears to intensify the link between the poet and mortality:

The poem as that which literally speaks-itself-to-death.

In the speech, Celan talked about the poem as 'being underway' and as carrying the potential for an encounter. I've taken this to mean an encounter with a reader or readers to whom the poem 'speaks' in an intimate way but perhaps I should now incorporate death as the true or ultimate destination of the poem. I've just noticed the use of literally which, with Celan, usually indicates that what follows must be read at face value rather than as a metaphor or other piece of flummery. So, rather than the poem's own death, this is probably the poem addressing its words to the fact of death, to mortality, to the general action of passing away.

Also in this part we have a couple of linked definitions of the poem/poetry:

Artistry and word-art - that may have the feeling of something occidental, evening-filling. Poetry is heart-grey, breath-clouded, breath-marbled .. language in time.

which is further elaborated with-

Re- heart-grey language in time:

... it builds, from the direction of death, onto the counter-cosmos of the mortals, - it builds like language, from the under in a under the law of that which is invisible because near and nearest. It had has all its dimesnions in itself: depth and distance-

Poems are not accumulations and articulations of "word material," they are the actualizing of something immaterial, language-emanations carried through life-hours, tangible and mortal like us. These hours are, especially in the poem, our hours - this is one of them; we wri hours have no phenotype; we still write for our life.

I'm reading an odd mix of Buber and Heidegger into the above but it does seem to indicate that poetry consists of or is infused with the essentials for life- the beating heart and the breathing lungs but that it is also within time, rather than something eternal. This is further elaborated in the next note which indicate that the poem 'builds from the direction of death' which presents a number of puzzles.

We think of a life or an existence as preceding death but then does this counter-cosmos run time in the opposite direction and, if so., why is it said to belong to the mortals (us)? The image of the poem building like language may refer to the way in which a particular language develops by adding vocabulary or modifying the rules of grammar but it may also be the way that the idea of language, as well as the idea of the poem develops and accrues density or weight in time. This doesn't much help with precise definitions / explanations. I'm now reading more Buber than Heidegger into 'actualizing' and bring 'language-emanations' into the mix as supporting evidence. The emphasis on the hours that belong to us may, as well as reflecting the Heideggerian take on time and existence, may also contain a nod in the direction of Buber's idea of momentary gods: " God does not arise for us out of inherited tradition, writes Buber, but out of the fusion of a number of 'moment Gods'."

The other startling phrase is the statement that we are still writing for our life which doesn't seem to follow from the rest of the sentence. When we say we are 'running for our life' we usually mean that we are running in order to avoid extreme and imminent danger. If these hours referred to at the beginning of poem reflect momentary gods and Heidegger's idea of 'throwness' with regard to our movement towards death then there is the sense of writing as perhaps something existentially authentic which validates or otherwise promotes our individual lives in the face of mortality.

Person and language.

This part puts more detail into the notion of the poem as "language actualized, set free under the sign on a radical individuation". I think there are two distinct definitions of 'actualised' that may be important here, the first is "To make actual or real; to carry out in practice; to realise in action" and the second is a term from liguistics: "To vocalize or articulate (a speech sound). Also intr.: (of a speech sound) to be articulated in a particular way". We may also need to bear in mind a more recent definition- "to fulfil one's potential".

The OED also provides a number of definition of 'individuate':

So a poem is the result of language being made real and/or articulated in a particular way by means of rendering language into a form that is distinct or unique.

I've set out the above because some of the notes in this part are rather gnomic:

All that has been transmitted is only there once, as voice; its reappearance, its respective present is a becoming-voiced of what has stepped back and is stored in the voiceless; decisive for its new appearance is its new voice; problems of style, themes etc. are co-extensive, not co-essential with poetry. (of the same origin)

It would seem from this that one of the ways that poems get made is by reviving or realising the potential of a voice that has become silent and that this is to be contrasted with a poetic theme and form that are not essential to the poem but nevertheless accompany it.

With a slightly different spin we have this sentence:

The poem: a self-realisation of language through radical individuation, i.e. the unrepeatable speaking of an individual.

Which might indicate poems that are made when language makes itself real by means of human speech. I'm taking this to mean the ordinary speech of any person rather than a specific unrepeatable kind of speech which is somehow set off from the everyday.

Perhaps more revealing is another formula:

    person, secret, presence

             but: question concerning the limit and unity of the person

    the poem as I-quest?
                       Death as the principle creating unity and limits
                       thus its omnipresence in the poem-
    -i-  The poem as the I becoming a person: in conversation-awareness of
         the other and the stranger. The active principle thus a You
         assumed ("occupiable") this way or that- (death as You?)

In the darkness section of the notes it is said that the poem is "dark born" and that "the darkness of the poem = the darkness of death", the above would seem to indicate that it is the fact of our mortality and/or death itself that is present in every part of the poem and that this presence is due to both the unity that death provides and the limits that it sets.

Many of Celan's poems are addressed to a 'You' and here we have the suggestion that death may always be part of this 'you' even when others are addressed too, but there is also a question mark which suggests that Celan is in some doubt about this- as there is also with 'I-quest?'- this carries more than an echo of the long-lived critical view that all poems tell us more about the poet than they do about their apparent theme. I'm not of this view although I do feel that the 'I-quest' may play a small role in most poems. It could be argued that Celan's choice of themes may tell us what sort of person he was but I don't think that many of these can be seen as intent on self exploration and exposure.

I'm also reading Buber's central 'I and Thou' thesis into the above but I readily concede that this is because I want it to be there.

For us ordinary readers, the notes at the back of this translation are invaluable. The Meridian speech refers to the poem as being 'under way' without being particularly clear where this way might lead. The 'Direction' part of the notes give us some further pointers.

Celan was an enormous admirer of the work of Osip Mandelstam and Celan makes use of Mandelstam's imagery to make this point:

-and through the contemporary rubble (heaped up daily before us, the daily before us u the poem comes. "like Egyptian m. (mummies) provided with everything necessary for life" toward us, toward each one of us.

The editors have helpfully traced this to part of Mandelstam's essay 'On the nature of the Word';

Can one equip such a boat (meant is "the frail boat of the human world") for such a long journey, without furnishing it with all the necessities for the so foreign and cherished reader? Once more I would compare the poem to an Egyptian funerary boat. In this boat everything necessary for life is provided. Nothing is forgotten.

I think that it's reasonable to point out that much more critical attention should be given to Mandelstam and less to Celan's German predecessors.

So the poem moves towards each of us potential readers and these readers may be considered to be both strange and thought warmly of. The poem carries everything necessary for survival on our journey towards death. I read Celan's later work as being primarily 'about' survival and this idea of putting a comprehensive survival kit into the poem as it makes its way does seem to 'fit'.

In this part there's also a quote from one of Celan's poems:

Rhythm in the poem: that is unrepeatable, fateful sense-movements towards something unkown that lets itself perha at times so sometimes be thought as a you: "by the lightsense you divine the soul". They are even there when they are most voiceless, language-conditioned.

The quote is from 'Sprachgitter' which was published in the collection of the same name in 1959, the year before the speech was given. This is Michael Hamburger's translation:

    Eye's roundness between the bars.

    Vibratile monad eyelid
    propels itself upward,
    releases a glance.

    Iris, swimmer, dreamless and dreary:
    the sky, heart-grey, must be near.

    Athwart, in the iron holder,
    the smoking splinter.
    By its sense of light
    you divine the soul.

    (If I were like you. If you were like me.
    Did we not stand
    under one trade wind?
    We are strangers.)

    The flagstones. On them
    close to each other, the two
    heart-grey puddles
    two mouthsfull
    of silence.

I'm not going to begin to attempt a full reading of the above other than to point out that 'heart-grey' is described in the notes as a quality of the poem and that in the speech Celan offers the view that the 'absolute' poem must be the silent poem and perhaps the last three lines may refer to both the poet and the reader as two heart-grey mortals filled with the potential silence of this poem.

I could go on for a very long time about the breath notes but I'll finish with this remarkable extract from the Direction section:

    8.22.60. -

                 /  voice―rhythm―
    person, secret, presence

                 but: question concerning the limit and unity of the person
    the poem as I-quest?                                            /
                                    Death as the principle creating unity and limits, thus its omnipresence in the

           The poem as the I becoming a person: in conversation―awareness of the other and the
           stranger. The active principle thus a You assumed ("occupiable") this way or that,―(death)
           as You?)

(I've tried to reproduced the above as it appears on the page but my limited HTML skills have let me down (again): the sloping lines should be continuous and the dashes should be longer. Sorry.)

There are a couple of important 'points' that I take from this, the first being the existentialist awareness of the absolute fact of our mortality and the second is this interrogation of the poem, the quest for the self, the thing that is filled with death and as a kind of process into personhood. I'm reading this notion of conversation as part of Celan's view of the poem as carrying (embodying) the potential for an encounter with this other, this stranger. One of the persistent puzzles confrontng Celan's readers is the identity of the addressee ('you') in his work and death is one of those possibilities that is put forward but here I'd draw attention to the question mark, as if he is asking himself who or what this you might be.

The use of 'occupiable' as a quality is very redolent of the later work with its concern with what is needeed to carry on surviving the world. I think it's important to recognise again the provisional nature of this particular adjective in 1960, in both brackets and quotation marks in conjunction with a capitalised 'you'. The dating of this particular note is unusual in these workings-through although Celan did date all the drafts of his poetry. The date placed at the top here might suggest that he saw these reflections as having some particular importance even though they are quite hesitant.

The full text of the drafts and notes is to be found in The Meridian, final version - drafts - materials' which have been translated by Pierre Joris.

  Neem & streptomycin sulfate & sweet young thangs
From: "Jay Vannini" interbnk at terra.com.gt> on 2000.08.15 at 23:21:59(5284)

Since Neem extracts appear to be the "organic" flavor of the month amongst
the orchid crowd, have decided to break down and give it a fair trial on my
own. Since I have Anthurium, Alocasia and Nepenthes species as companion
plants, I am always concerned about spray drift of ANYTHING that I'm not
familiar with.

Money Method: 5 Things to Think About When Filing a Tax Extension

Tax Day is nearly two weeks away. And if you’re reading this post, you probably haven’t filed your 1040 yet. Well, thank goodness for tax extensions. Actually, let me retract that last statement. It’s not a good idea to opt out for a tax extension because there probably will be a price to pay.

John Gregory, a tax practitioner and founder of, which provides tax solutions for small business owners and individuals, suggests five things you should take into account if you plan to file a tax extension with the IRS.

No. 1 - The Purpose of the Extension. Filing a tax extension gives you a grace period of six months, which pushes your deadline to October 15. However, there is a catch. The IRS allows you the extension for the sole purpose of arranging for and organizing your documents. Do not assume that you are getting an extension for paying off you tax liabilities. You still have to pay at least 90 percent of your taxes by April 15. If you are trying to buy time to put off your tax payment for six months, it won’t be a wise thing to do. The IRS will charge interest on the unpaid tax obligation. This means, you will have to shell out more money.

No.2 - What if you are expecting a Refund? If you think you cannot catch up, you can go ahead and file an extension. However if you are expecting a refund on your tax return, you certainly do not need to request an extension. You won’t be penalized either for not filing your taxes, if you are expecting a refund.  IRS’s only concern is the tax payers who owe them money. So if you are expecting a refund, you have three years to file your taxes and apply for a refund, after three years you will lose your right to the refund once and for all. For example, if you are entitled to refund on your tax returns for the year 2014, you must file your taxes before the tax season of 2017 comes to an end. After that you forgo your refunds.

No. 3 - What if You Owe Money to the IRS? If you happen to owe money to the IRS, you are supposed to file Form 4868. It allows you six months to file your taxes. But you do have to submit your extension request by April 15th. You can also file your tax extension electronically and pay the 90 percent of your tax liability online, directly from your savings/checking account.

  • TC’s Tip: provides the forms right through its website. Here’s a link for you to download, fill out, and e-file your extension. A few lines down on the Form 4868, you’ll see that the IRS states that “you can get an automatic extension of time to file your tax return by filing Form 4868 electronically. You will receive an electronic acknowledgment once you complete the transaction. Keep it with your records. Do not mail in Form 4868 if you file electronically, unless you are making a payment with a check or money order.”

No. 4 - What If You Cannot Pay 90 Percent of Your Taxes? There could be a possibility that you apply for an extension but might not be able to pay the 90 percent of your tax liability by April 15th. In such a scenario Gregory of noted that the best thing to do is pay whatever you can and request an installment agreement from the IRS. There are two aspects related to entering into an installment agreement; first is the fixed fee depending on the type of agreement and second is the interest applicable to the outstanding tax liability. The IRS charges $52 for a direct debit agreement and $120 for the standard or payroll agreement. Additionally, the IRS will charge you interest on your outstanding tax liability at the rate of 0.5 percent per month. You should note that even if you pay off 90 percent of your taxes by April 15, you will still be required to pay the interest on the remaining 10 percent of your tax liability. The same scenario could arise if you erroneously underestimate your tax liability.

No. 5 - Do not Forget to File for an Extension. If you have already ignored the deadline, do not fail to file your tax extension. It takes approximately one year for the IRS to realize that you did not pay your taxes. They will calculate your tax liability based on the information received from your employer, brokerage firms, banks and 1099 income, and calculate your tax liability based as a single individual with no dependents. To top it, they will add to it the applicable penalties and interest. The IRS doesn’t know of any deductions that you may claim and hence the tax bill certainly won’t be in your favor. And finally when you decide to file your tax return with a list of deductions, it is quite a possibility that you are setting yourself up for an audit.

Gregory provided some solid tips for the late taxpayer, but I will add that you try your best to use that extension as the last resort.

Cardinals Scouting Director Fired - Says Dumb Things

The St. Louis Post Dispatch dropped a bombshell today regarding the hacking scandal. Belying the notion that it was just some rogue intern, a Cardinals lawyer announced today that they have fired their scouting director, Chris Correa, over the hacking of the Astros database. This is huge news, and eliminates any possibility this will just be swept under the rug and forgotten. This isn't Bill DeWitt or John Mozeliak, but it's higher up in the organization that anyone could have imagined.

In the story, a statement from Correa's attorney offered up his "defense"

In a prepared statement, Correa lawyer Nicholas Williams wrote, "Mr. Correa denies any illegal conduct. The relevant inquiry should be what information did former St. Louis Cardinals employees steal from the St. Louis Cardinals organization prior to joining the Houston Astros, and who in the Houston Astros organization authorized, consented to, or benefited from that roguish behavior."
Correa has admitted hacking into a Houston Astros database but said it was only to verify whether the Astros had stolen proprietary data, according to a source with knowledge of the investigation.
Now, I don't claim to be an expert in this area of law, but, this is really dumb. Unauthorized access to someone else's computer is a federal crime, under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act. That's why the FBI is involved in this investigation. You don't get to commit a federal crime just because you think someone has wronged you. I feel like this is important advice. If the Cardinals generally, or Correa specifically, believed the Luhnow stole proprietary information, there were avenues available to them to redress that alleged wrong. Major League teams cannot sue each other, but they can bring complaints to the commissioner's office, who can investigate. Luhnow has already denied that anyone has approached him with such an inquiry. Based on the hacking timeline as we know it, with the first hack occurring in 2012, it seems unlikely the Cardinals have been sitting on this for over three years. Especially considering that the statute of limitations, under the Uniform Trade Secrets Act, is three years from the discovery of the breach.

This is in no way the end of the story. Correa admitted to the accessing the database once, but has not admitted to any subsequent acts or leaking the information. Which either means he is lying, or some other rogue actors will come to light soon.

MoleBoy said...

Does this guy have the worst lawyer ever?

JoeinAlaska said...

Hard to believe he admitted to a Federal crime and his excuse was because he thought Luhnow walked out with prprietary info. He must not have found the stuff he thought Jeff stole since they didn't file charges against Luhnow or ask the Commisioners office to investigate. So typical, commit a crime and them blame the victim when you get caught. I wonder how many others in the Jailbirds FO will wind up getting fired?

What Does a Bat Bite Mark Look Like on a Human?

bats in house

While entering my attic, I unknowingly reached down and touched a bat – funny how Bats just love attic spaces. I thought it bit me, but after looking at my hand, I couldn’t see a bite mark. That is when I thought, “What does a bat bite look like on a human?” The answer to this question is important for a number of reasons.

Aren’t bats a common carrier of rabies? Could the bat have rabies? What is the best way to determine if the bat has rabies? If I cannot find a bite mark, should I be concerned about contracting rabies? Here are some answers.

Some Bats and Rabies Facts

Mention bite marks and everyone conjures up images of Dracula biting a victim’s neck.News reports, such as the one shown on this YouTube video, only emphasize this image. But, most bites occur on the hand, when people handle bats without wearing heavy gloves:

The Center for Disease Control (CDC) states on their website that bats are one of the main types of wild animals that can give humans rabies, and the disease is transmitted mainly through a bite, but it is also transmitted when a rabid bat contacts your mouth, nose, eyes, or a fresh wound.

Rabies in the United States (U.S.) is contracted the most from raccoons, skunks, bats, foxes, and coyotes, and in that order, according to the Colorado Parks and Wildlife. Not all animals are rabid, and the University of Texas explains that less than one-half of one percent of all bats have rabies.

Rabies is a serious viral disease that hits the central nervous system and, unfortunately, once rabies symptoms start to occur, says the Seattle and King County Public Health Department, an imminent death is the ultimate result, whether the victim is a bat, or yourself.

Are Bat Bite Marks are Hard to Find?

Bats of the world come in all sizes, but the primary bat found in the United States is the little brown bat, which is only four inches long and weighs less than an ounce, according to Eastern Kentucky University. This animal has a very tiny mouth with extremely sharp teeth.

As pointed out by the Los Angeles County Public Health Department, a little brown bat bite might look like tiny pin pricks on your skin, and a bite mark is often too small to even see. Therefore, all bites are considered a rabies exposure, even if you cannot find the bite.

If you feel a needle prick, or stinging sensation while encountering a bat, you probably were bitten by a bat, says the Minnesota Department of Health, who adds that the bat may leave no evidence of a puncture, or a wound. These alone tells us how important it is to get rid of this pest from your home.

Can’t Find a Bat Bite Mark, Now What?

how do you get rid of bats

The fear of rabies transmission is always a predominant consideration by health professionals when rabies cannot be confirmed in the bat. How do they tell if the animal has rabies? It must be captured, killed, and a lab analysis is taken of the bat’s brain in order to confirm the rabies virus.

If you’re like me, you’re not interested in catching a bat, although it can be done. The Colorado Parks and Wildlife suggests wearing heavy gloves, confining the bat in a container, like a coffee can, sliding cardboard under the container, and then taping the container shut.

Unlike the days of old, when rabies shots involved 21 agonizing shots in the stomach, Rutgers University reports that a human post-exposure rabies series involves an initial shot in the rump and four shots in the arm over a two-week period. Most doctors recommend this approach.

As the Boston Public Health Commission recommends, you have nothing to fear if a bat flies over your head, but if you touched the animal or were sleeping too hard to be aware when an animal was in the room, the bat must be collected and tested for rabies, or you need to get rabies shots.

The answer to “What does a bat bite look like on a human?” is it often isn’t visible, and if a bite is evident, it’s only the tiniest of pin pricks on the skin. The trouble is that this insignificant bite might kill you if the bat is rabid. And, if you have a problem with bats in your home or attic then go to this page to learn ways on how to remove them safely.

So, if a bat touches you:

  • Try to capture the bat, and turn it in for a rabies analysis.
  • Inspect where you were bitten and look for pin pricks.
  • Even if you can’t find a bite, get the advice of your doctor, who will probably recommend post-exposure rabies shots.

Species profile

Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby

Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby

Range and abundance

The Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby was once found throughout the semi-arid range country in South Australia (Gawler, Flinders and Olary Ranges), New South Wales (Gap and Cotauraundee Ranges) and south-west Queensland.  However, following European settlement both the distribution and abundance of this species declined dramatically.  It now occurs in small, often isolated colonies within its former range.

An adult male can be 80cm tall and weigh up to 11kg while an adult female is up to 60cm tall and weighs 6-7kg.  The coat markings are spectacularly complex being an overall fawn-grey with a white side stripe and cheek stripe, brown and white hip stripe and orange-yellow ears, forearms, hind legs and feet while the tail is orange-brown with darker bars or rings. There can be a regional variation in the richness of these colours.  Fur is short and neat.

Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby are grazers and browsers of forbs, herbs and low shrubs.  They are restricted to rock faces, cliffs, gorges and boulder fields in the semi-arid ranges, sheltering in small caves, cracks and crevices during the heat of the day and coming out to feed in late afternoon on the vegetation on the lower slopes. Colonies generally consist of a number of breeding females with their offspring and a dominant male with a few sub-dominant males. Young females tend to stay at the colony site, while the dominant male forces young males out. Animals can live up to 10 years in the wild, but mortality rates are high in the first year of life.

Population numbers were drastically reduced following European settlement by a combination of factors such as habitat alteration by livestock, hunting for the fur trade and sport and predation by introduced predators.

Current threats are competition for food and shelter from introduced herbivores such as goats, predation by introduced predators such as Foxes and Cats, habitat fragmentation, genetic impediments of small colony size and catastrophic events such as wildfire and drought.

The species now has a fragmented distribution of isolated colonies as many previous colonies in between have become extinct, preventing dispersal by young animals. This species is now generally restricted to protected areas that are actively managed to abate threats.

What is AWC doing?

AWC protects one of the largest populations of the Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby in one location at Buckaringa. Just protecting suitable habitat is not enough to save the species and improve its chances in the future – it needs active threat abatement actions. We deliver effective conservation for this species by implementing effective goat and fox control on Sanctuary and cooperating with our neighbours to conduct similar work elsewhere in the region. We monitor the effectiveness of our threat abatement programs by conducting counts at set locations on Buckaringa twice a year to develop an index of numbers present.

Did you know:

Recent genetic work has determined that there are two subspecies of Yellow-footed Rock-wallaby: Petrogale xanthopus xanthopus in South Australia and New South Wales and Petrogale xanthopus celeris in south-west Queensland.

Early taxonomists named the species Petrogale xanthopus. Xanthopus refers to yellow foot while Petrogale refers to Rock-weasel or Yellow-footed Rock-weasel.

  • Jake was super helpful! He was thorough, VERY knowledgeable, and his customer service was impeccable. I had done a lot of research and had a lot of questions and he took his time and answered me thoroughly, ultimately guiding me in the right direction. Jake actually knew more than the manufacturer’s technical support (and other authorized dealers) on one of my questions and it actually made a difference on what product I purchased. Thanks for all the help!

  • 5 STARS ***** Went to Best Buy first, Justin trashed my car, did not install my new Kenwood system correctly, was rude, and drilled a hole into my bumper for the camera. Long story short, I had them remove everything and give me a refund. I drive to AutoSounds from BB and talked to Shayne. He was the complete opposite of Justin at BB and made me feel like a real customer. The same Kenwood system was $200 less and installed with a Mic, USB port, Plate Camera, Handsfree button, and covered the hole in my bumper (he said they would have never drilled a hole in my bumper). This is a real small business and treats it’s clients like people. I am sorry I ever went to BB and AutoSounds has a new customer for life. I do not know how anyone could give these guys a bad review. I owe my own business called The Computer Magician and I can say that AutoSounds of Lincoln treats their clients the way we try to treat ours. Do yourself a favor and go to a professional to get the job done right the first time. I’ve been a Lincoln business owner for 20 years and I love to find local businesses like these guys. I just never thought to look for a installer besides BB. BB is the fast food of electronics, I should have known better. A big thank you to Shayne Baldwin at AtuoSounds of Lincoln

  • I had a great experience with Shayne. I got a few quotes about my car audio but Shayne was the most truthful. Very professional and know what they are doing. Gave me a detail breakdown of all the cost involved, nothing inflated. Drove me home and back while my car was being worked on. Provided me with the right setup for my car, not what’s popular. Definitely recommend to anyone looking for auto work. Thanks guys!
    — Michael L.
  • I went to Autosounds to have an iPhone auxiliary port added to my vehicle. Shayne went over my options with me and I chose to go with factory part route. I was anxious about using an after-market product and felt more comfortable with a factory product. When it came time to do the install, the factory part wasn’t going to work but Shayne couldn’t get a hold of me to discuss the options. He told me later that he just thought of the vehicle as if it were his own and installed the after-market product. I was nervous to see how it had turned out, but I couldn’t be happier. Shayne was able to integrate the product flawlessly - it looks like it’s always been there and I’m thrilled with the performance and the fantastic service of Shayne and Autosounds.

Language Translation and Health and Safety – Insurance and Claims

Under English law a person is deemed to have read something if they have signed it. But surely we enter a grey area if the person can obviously not read in the language? Unfortunately not everybody is honest in this world and there are even situations where a person can deny they speak the required language shortly after an incident. This can alter the nature of a claim and we now live in a claims culture.

The only true way to protect your business is to consider translation of documents as part of the initial employment cost of migrant workers and as part of the health and safety audit. It can be considered part of your insurance cost as it is in fact another form of protection.

If you cannot be sure that your employee can read documents related to the health and safety parts of their job you will need to have a translation available in their language. If you would like to protect against their denial of language abilities you still need to translate the documents into their language.

At the very minimum, it is recommended that each migrant employee should be given a covering document to sign ‘before starting work’ that has been translated into their language. This should be presented with all the documents they should understand and include a confirmation that they have received the documents listed and that they can understand them, they can understand all the safety signage in the work place and that they possess the ability to speak the native language of a good level to be able to understand instructions given. This should also include a procedure for situations where they have reached a language barrier.

Insurance companies may not have asked you how you deal with language barriers in the work place or migrant workers, but it is only a matter of time. Remember, a translation service can protect your employees, your assets and keep your insurer happy.

Language Translation and Health and Safety – Employees

Never before has the job market been so global and this means that more work places have employees working in a second language or a language in which they are not entirely proficient.

On this basis language translation can be important to ensure the employee understands the safety procures and how to perform their job in the safest manner. The person may be qualified and experienced, but might come a place where health and safety is less important.

For their safety and the safety of their co-workers, translation of key documents may be important.

Best Airline: Alitalia or Air France

On a recent long haul trip I traveled with a different airline in each direction. I traveled out with the Italian company ‘Alitalia’ and returned with the French airline ‘Air France’ and my brief evaluation was as follows:

Service: The Italian airline was notably poor and the staff lacked care. They also spent the entire flight avoiding the passengers. It all seemed like they could not be bothered.

The French Airline did a fantastic job. The service was kind and proactive and it was certainly service with a smile.

The Aircraft: Air France had an unfair edge in that the aircraft was extremely new and had a great entertainment system. However, with all the problems Alitalia has published in the Italian press, it seems unlikely that they will be updating their fleet in the near future.

The Meals: I love Italian food and food is really part of Italian culture. On this basis I was expecting good things from Alitalia……….but I was to be disappointed.

On an airline you will receive a heated up ready meal and this is not an example of the real thing, but it was poor. The coffee was truly terrible and completely undrinkable. It was the worst excuse for coffee I have received in my entire life. This includes vending machines, airlines and coffee tried in 40 countries.

The food on Air France was very good by air travel standards.

Conclusion: So, based on a single trip, the French airline ‘Air France’ was a clear winner. Hopefully Alitalia will take note and start improving things…….especially the coffee!

Coming Soon: The next review will be the German Airline ‘Lufthansa’ against the American ‘United Airlines’.

Benefits of working within the translation and interpreter industry – The Joy of Helping People

It is rewarding to be part of something good or something that makes a positive difference to someone’s life. Sometimes a career in translation or interpreting offers this opportunity.

A good example is medical translation. You may assist in spreading new knowledge, but often you know the name of the individual you are helping and have spoken with them. You may be providing translations so that the person can see a specialist in a new country and sometimes you can be a part of making a difference in that persons life.

You can also enjoy assisting people with business and legal circumstances. Perhaps you are an interpreter at a sales meeting and help the team clinch the deal. Maybe your legal translation assistance allows the legal team to obtain further knowledge that helps them win their case.

Where there is communication there can be the need for translation or an interpreter. Sometimes you receive an added bonus from the joy of helping people.

Visiting Japan

Growing up I had 2 places that a dreamed of visiting most: Italy and Japan. My mother had always talked about her time working in Italy and how she loved the Italian lifestyle, so Italy was an obvious choice. However, Japan and the Japanese?

I am not sure where the desire to visit Japan first came from. I had studied Chinese and Thai martial arts, but never Japanese. Perhaps it was from the film ‘Blade Runner’ or watching ‘Monkey’ on TV as a young boy. Whatever the reason, I always wanted to visit Japan.

So……after all these years I finally planned my trip to Japan. I had 2 choices: Christmas/New Year 2010/2011 or April 2011. On the flip of a coin I went for Christmas, despite knowing that I would miss the cherry blossom season that is celebrated by the Japanese. Had I not visited at that time I doubt would not have travelled to Japan so soon after the tsunami and the ongoing problems. I am not sure when I could have visited and in life sometimes things you put-off end up as unachieved ambitions.

I loved my time in Japan and really enjoyed Japanese culture. I wish for a solution to all the problems facing the Japanese people and hope that I will be able to visit again soon.

Benefits of working within the translation and interpreter industry – Endless Learning

A career as a translator or interpreter is a lifetime filled with continuous learning.

To be able to translate a document or provide interpretation services for a situation you must be able to understand the subject/document. This requires an understanding of the terminology in both languages. This knowledge may have been gained by working within that field, but as technology changes your knowledge must be refreshed. Luckily, as a linguist, you are often translating documents before they become general knowledge. You may be providing translations for research teams and learn about developments when they are very much cutting-edge.

You may also have the joy of learning about new subject areas and matters of general interest. For instance, you may have an interpreting assignment to assist with a tour of London. Before the assignment you will be presented a pack of information about the tour so you can prepare yourself and by the end of the assignment you should have learned more about the subject from these notes and the added comments of the guide.

Learning is enjoyable and is a great benefit to be obtained from a career as a translator or interpreter.

Benefits of working within the translation and interpreter industry – Introduction

Most of us spend a great deal of our lives working and it is therefore ideal if we can enjoy our chosen career. In this series of blog posts we will write about some of the good things about a career in languages.

Benefits of working within the translation and interpreter industry – The People

One of the best things about a career in translation and interpreting is your colleagues.

Your colleagues are from a wide range of countries and cultures, but will have spent time living in other countries. During their studies they have generally spent time with students from other nations and this will have broadened their outlook to consider other possible points of view. Your colleague in the translation industry might be from China, attended university in Europe and now work in America with their Russian husband.

These experiences and the mixed team creates a unique environment where topics can be considered from a wider range of angles. Your colleagues are able to accept different choices and informed discussions can take place about situations. This helps with lateral thinking.

I would also note that I find colleagues in the translation industry less judgemental for the reasons above, but also as the languages industry is one of constant learning. It seems that your colleagues are more interested to learn/understand your rational for a decision.

Apple Coffee Cake

Recipe of the Week
Apple Coffee Cake
Courtesy of
Beverly Rossman

This is an old family recipe. I can remember my dad, Robert Werner, getting up in the middle of the night in his pajamas to put this coffee cake together. He would do everything but the baking. In the morning, when he got up, he’d put it in the oven. What a great smelling house it was to wake up to!

Apple Coffee Cake

1 Cup Milk
1/4 Cup Butter
1/4 Cup Sugar
1 tsp. Salt
1 Pkg Dry yeast
1/2 Cup Lukewarm water
1 Egg, beaten
4 Cups Flour

2 Cup peeled and thinly sliced tart apples
12 Tbsp. Sugar
2 Tbsp. Cinnamon
1 tsp. nutmeg
4 Tbsp. Butter

Soften the yeast in the lukewarm water. Scald the milk, then add the butter, sugar and salt. Cool to lukewarm and add the yeast and the beaten egg. Mix, then gradually stir in the flour to form a soft dough. Beat vigorously until all ingredients are well blended.

Turn the dough out into a greased bowl, cover with a damp towel, and let rise till it doubles in volume.

When risen, pat the dough in 2 greased 9″ round layer cake pans or one 9″ x 13″ cake pan. Let rise until almost doubled in bulk.

Arrange apples over the top of the dough, in even rows, pressing slightly into dough. Mix together the sugar, cinnamon, and nutmeg. Sprinkle over the apples, then dot with the butter. Let rise another 15 min.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cover the pan(s) with foil and bake 10 minuntes. Remove the foil and finish baking for 35-40 min.

Remember — to be official when doing this, you MUST be in your pajamas, like my dad was.

tired of this piece of string

I knew when the Resident Kitteh did not get up for breakfast yesterday that something was off. And today, except for a short trip from the armchair to the bed, she hasn't gotten up at all. Unless she has a remarkable recovery overnight, I am calling the vet in the morning.

She doesn't appear to be limping or to be particularly tender anywhere, although I admit I am only palpating her very gingerly.

She used her litter box once yesterday, but not at all today. She's always been a cat who drinks a fair bit of water but she refused to drink any when I brought some to her, although she did lick some off my fingers. I could hear her stomach grumbling when I was lying next to her, so I brought her a few shreds of cheese which she ate eagerly, but still refused water.

By the end of the day I thought I would try to tempt her with some skim milk, realizing full well that it would probably make her barf. She did not stop drinking for 5 minutes and then she ate a handful of her treats, but puked up the whole works an hour later.

Her skin still feel firm and hydrated but I am getting concerned. And it seems to me that her haunches are a little sunken.

She's still purring though, poor thing.

Do you have any advice?

umbrellalady said...

Best get the RK off to the vet. Cats are pretty predictable and RK definitely sounds off. Many soft hugs for her.

Jas B said...

Take her to the Vet, Barb. I hope she is her healthy and hearty self again soon!

LesleyG said...

Yep, to the vet it is. I worked in a vet clinic for 5 years and one thing I remember is that cats are so very good at masking things, and when they finally show up there's a chance it could be serious. Here's hoping she gets better very soon!

Allison said...

I have to agree with everyone here, I would take her to the vet as well. I really only have experience with dogs, but like cats, like are very predictable and anything out of the ordinary usually means something is up. I hope the vet will be able to provide some answers.

I hope she gets better soon!!

Ponita in Real Life said...

As a human nurse and a former vet's assistant, and lifelong cat owner... to the vet with her! Better safe than sorry.

Hope she's okay!

Dr. Monkey Von Monkerstein said...

Get that kitty better! STAT!

John Mutford said...

I hope everything's okay and that it's just a temporary thing.

Barbara Bruederlin said...

Thanks so much, everyone, for your concern and your kind words. It really meant so much to me and the whole family.

Good news! The vet visit fixed things up. Details to come shortly.

Wandering Coyote said...

God, where was I yesterday? Sorry I missed this, but was glad to read that there was a good outcome.

In Shattering the Façade: A Report on Bahrain’s Implementation of the BICI Recommendations Four Years On, ADHRB, BIRD, and BCHR provide recommendation- by-recommendation analysis of the Government of Bahrain’s implementation of the recommendations made by the BICI in 2011. Despite government rhetoric to the contrary, the report finds that some of the most fundamental abuses addressed by the BICI continue unabated in Bahrain.

Despite the government’s claim that it has fully implemented 19, partially implemented six, and one recommendation remains inapplicable, Shattering the Façade finds that the government has fully implemented only two of the BICI’s recommendations, with 16 remaining partially implemented and eight having not been implemented at all. The eight recommendations the government has not implemented represent some of the BICI’s most vital components, including recommendations to decriminalize free speech and relax censorship, integrate government security forces and implement extensive human rights training to end human rights abuses, avoid arbitrary and incommunicado detentions, and undertake measures to prevent incitement to sectarianism.

Instead, the government has specifically acted to undermine many of these recommendations, undertaking a mass campaign of arbitrary detention to silence dissent, criminalizing free speech and assembly in public and private forums, and holding security forces largely unaccountable for the torture and excessive force that continues to this day.

“The government’s claims to have fully implemented the BICI couldn’t be farther from the truth,” said Sayed Ahmed, Director of Advocacy at BIRD. “Instead, it has actively worked to impede implementation of some of the BICI’s most important reforms, while the human rights situation in Bahrain continues to deteriorate as any sense of urgency the government may have once felt to implement reforms has dissipated.”

The Bahraini government’s piecemeal approach to reform is partially due to a lack of consistent international pressure. Despite Bahrain’s backsliding on reform, the international community only voices its concern over Bahrain’s lack of progress from time to time, insisting that Bahrain must be recognized and rewarded for the steps that it has taken towards reform and reconciliation. However, this report shows that rhetoric from Bahrain’s international allies has made little impact towards pushing Manama to make meaningful progress on reform and reconciliation.

“The Government of Bahrain continues to point to the same cosmetic reforms that have not actually impacted the conditions that led to the events of 2011 or the issues that continue preventing Bahrain from achieving actual progress,” said Husain Abdulla, Executive Director of ADHRB. “Instead of using its significant leverage to push for the release of the country’s thousands of political prisoners, the international community, including the US and UK, has continued to laude cosmetic reforms rather than push for initiatives that could actually contribute to national reconciliation and bolster human rights.”

Four years on, as the government continues to claim that the BICI’s recommendations are no longer relevant, it is even more critical that international allies concerned with Bahrain’s long-term stability and security, particularly the US and UK, push for reform in action. Without the Government of Bahrain’s full commitment to transparently implementing the BICI recommendations, holding security forces and government officials accountable for ongoing human rights abuses, releasing political prisoners, and engaging in a meaningful dialogue with the entire opposition, Bahrain’s persistent unrest will continue and the hope created by the BICI in 2011 may be lost.

“The government must refocus its efforts on promoting human rights in the country if it wants to see lasting change and peace,” added Nabeel Rajab, president of BCHR. “When the government respects human rights, the people will respect the government.”
