The two most successful mammals on earth are humans and brown rats, in that order. You could look it up.
The terms human race and rat race have grown more and more intimately related, like imbricated tiles in a pattern, a metaphor deeply embedded in the later chapters of the Evolutionary Comedy. There may be a reason for this. Those were my thoughts tonight as, scurrying defensively through the streets, I saw something small and dark at the periphery of the visual field, scurrying defensively out of sight into the endarkened entryway of an abandoned storefront.
In black times the economic indicators indicate big ticket items on metal shelves drifting and falling in space outside the ship, the air line to the module cut. Boxes of junk in warehouses, tomorrow's archeology, afloat in space, where no one will ever be able to afford a flatscreen plasma any more.
Rattus norvegicus, the second most successful mammal on the planet, scurrying in a frenzy of overpopulating joy, as in the New Hamelin, through the junk bloated cargo hold.
The empty storefronts, the broken souls, the danger in every doorway, the sirens roaring in the insane city night.
The workers in their cubicles, the conference calls, the meeting rooms, the institutional corridors.
The cigarette burns in the tattered carpets at the unemployment office where the descent into the labyrinth begins. The people without a job want to have a job, the people with jobs hate their jobs and spend their time complaining about their jobs and take out their hatred for their jobs by sitting in their cubicles in their offices wasting their time on the internet, they are rats scurrying to and fro in the cargo hold of the sinking ship of the cargo cult of the dying sick have a nice day society. Let's have coffee.
One fellow tells me about the necessity of killing rats.
On the same night a different fellow tells me about his pet rats, how much he loves them, how each one has a different personality.
He is a school teacher. His students are mostly juvenile delinquents. This fellow practices martial arts assiduously, to protect himself from his students. His daily stress levels are very high. I ought to quit this fucking job and become a beat cop, he says, yeah, that's what I ought to do. To relieve stress he reaches for junk food. A checkup revealed that he has type 2 diabetes. He now checks his blood sugar with a needle pop six times a day. Still, the old vicious cycle. Today after work, he says, I had a quesadilla. Blood sugar bounced right up. Can't do that. No, today I'll carry nuts, I'll eat six nuts, I won't eat a quesadilla.
Beer lowers his blood sugar, he has found. He rides his bike to the bar.
His rats are sweet natured, they are pretty, they love him, they have personalities, they do not require killing, when he is attending to them his stress levels remain low, he has less craving for junk food, this keeps his blood sugar down.
For many years we had a neighbour who was a psychiatrist. She subscribed to a journal called Behavioral Neuroscience. I know this because one issue was misdelivered to us, before redirecting it I glanced through the pages. There were some photos and line drawings of rats being dangled by their tails and then dropped to a hard surface, in slow motion stages. They were shown hitting the laboratory table and flopping. It was apparent they had been drugged. The article recounted test experiments in data that swirled before my eyes as I mourned being a human being. The most successful mammal on earth.
Rats got into a closet a while after that. They chewed holes in a lot of stored books. I don't know if there is much digestible cellulose in a book, but I hoped so.
The street drifters come and go. Surviving on the street is not a long term proposition. One who came two years ago in the summer when the drifters always come and lasted on the street maybe three or four months was a butch young woman with muscle tee, flattop, many scars and body piercings and interesting tattoos and a hard-edge fuck-you-don't-come-too-close demeanour. Lived out of a three-tier shopping cart rodent hotel she had fashioned, the middle tier an elaborate dormitory for her pet rats. There was a complex of water bowls and feeding stations with balanced diet greens and whole wheat fiber and other nourishing foods, everything in careful little bowls. Towels draped over the upper tier extended downward to keep the rat dormitory comfortably endarkened. They sleep all day, she helpfully explained, don't fucking disturb them.
This ecology interested me, so over time I asked discreet questions and learned more. They sleep with me in my sleeping bag at night, she said, but they're really nocturnal so they don't actually sleep much at night, they mostly just run around inside the bag.
I asked if they had names. Sweet Thing and Beauty, she said.
I'd see her now and then and she'd share about her rats, then I didn't see her for awhile. Then I did see her again, wobbly, no shopping cart, I asked after her rats. She looked blank for a moment, dazed. The street does this to its denizens. Then the question and the memory clicked in. Oh, they ran off, she said.
After that day I don't believe I ever saw her again.

Embrace the new season with SAA!
The dormant is alive once more, and with spring comes an atmosphere alive with possibility. This month we have just the thing to put a spring into your step – our featured destination Brazil.
However, if you'd prefer to stay in, then grab your Springbok gear and watch the Boks dominate all the way to the final! This may seem presumptuous, but remember that with exceptional support – anything is possible. So sign up to Follow your Team and get behind the Boks every step of the way!
Speaking of dominance our extensive network of Africa continues to grow with the introduction of a new route. As of 1 October 2011 you will be able to fly directly to Ndola, Zambia.
Well that's it for this month; we hope you enjoy the warm weather, the brilliant rugby action and planning your trip to Brazil.
Until we see you again, travel safe!
The long-lasting impression most visitors leave Brazil with is of carefree, colourful people dancing and celebrating in street parades at Carnival. It's a culture with a passion for life and exuberance of spirit that charms visitors from around the world.
The country has much to offer visitors at all times of year. However, tourists descending on the country's exciting cities, such as hedonistic Rio de Janeiro, can enjoy the five-star hotels, shopping malls, pristine beaches, sunny skies and bustling nightlife without really having to confront the hundreds of shanty towns (favelas).
With booming mining, agricultural and manufacturing sectors, Brazil has the highest GDP in Latin America and is expected to be one of the world's dominant economies by the middle of this century. Brazil also caters well for business tourism and is a favoured destination for conventions, congresses and expos, particularly the city of Sao Paulo, which is the country's largest city and the business capital of Brazil.
Being so vast, larger than the continental United States; Brazil offers a variety of cultures and topographies. The range is evident in the contrast of the Amazon and Pantanal rain forests to the mountain towns of Minas Gerais, the urban jungle of Sao Paulo and the vast central plateau around Brasilia, as well as the world-famous beaches of Copacabana and Ipanema. It all adds up to an exotic and exciting Latin American mix where the common denominators are samba, sunshine, sultry smiles and soccer.
The industrial city of Port Elizabeth is the centre of the Eastern Cape region of South Africa, known in most tourist guides as 'settler country'.
The city, from its humble beginnings, has grown into a principal port and manufacturing centre. Although it is very much a working town, Port Elizabeth draws plenty of tourists because of its proximity to the attractions of the east coast and historically interesting interior.
The city is justifiably known as 'the friendly city' and Algoa Bay boasts 25 miles (40km) of beautiful sandy beaches lapped by the warm waters of the Indian Ocean. The attractive beachfront is the venue for the annual 'Splash' festival and world boardsailing championships, and features a long promenade and pier full of tourist facilities.
Port Elizabeth has a few museums and a small oceanarium, as well as the Nelson Mandela Stadium, which was built for the 2010 World Cup and dominates the cityscape. The nearby Donkin Reserve provides a pleasant day trip as do Seaview Game and Lion Park and the Kragga Kamma Game Park. Slightly further afield visitors can see the 'Big Five' at Shamwari Game Reserve, Amakhala Game Reserve, and Addo Elephant Park.
South African Airways is set to commence operations to Ndola (Zambia) from 1 October 2011. Recently awarded for the best "Service Excellence in Africa", the airline will fly to Ndola three times a week, in support of its goal to strengthen its African route network.
The introduction of this new route will provide a convenient air connection between South Africa and Zambia. Ndola is not only the third-largest city in Zambia, it is also the heart of the copper belt and Zambia's mining capital.
Theunis Potgieter, SAA's GM Commercial adds: "The introduction of this route is aligned to the airline's growth strategy, which aims to introduce new services to feasible destinations, enhancing business travel which effectively nurtures economic growth on the African continent."
This route will be serviced by the A319 aircraft which accommodates 120 customers in a two class configuration, which includes business and economy class. SAA flights to Ndola will operate on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Sundays. SAA is working closely with its partner, SA Airlink, complementing their early morning departures from Johannesburg; to give customers increased travel options.
The introduction of this route follows SAA's recent announcement of three new routes to Bujumbura (Burundi), Kigali (Rwanda) and Cotonou (Benin), from 31 October this year.

At the end of September/beginning of October each year all roads in Munich lead to the Theresienwiese, a giant grass meadow about the size of 20 football fields near the centre of the city. The occasion is the world's biggest party, the Munich Oktoberfest.
The field becomes a beer-drinking city; complete with its own post office, police force and fire department, and most importantly numerous huge tents, erected by the various Bavarian breweries, which serve as massive beer halls.
The first keg is tapped in ceremonial style to open the two-week celebration, which draws hundreds of thousands of revellers from all around the world. Apart from the rollicking beer halls where traditional Bavarian bands belt out their old favourites, the festival offers a host of carnival games and fun park rides, as well as stalls selling a range of German delicacies.
Travellers have instant rental access to a global fleet of over 220 000 vehicles at 3000 locations in over 160 countries. Click here to book.

Release of powerful painkiller Zohydro has officials worriedBy SHAWNE K. WICKHAM
New Hampshire Sunday News
March 01. 2014 10:53PM
Law enforcement and medical experts are worried about the imminent release of a powerful new painkiller they say will only exacerbate the state's twin epidemics of prescription drug and heroin abuse.
The new drug, Zohydro ER, is a time-release form of hydrocodone that will be available in doses as high as 50 mg. An advisory committee of the federal Food and Drug Administration voted, 11-2, last March not to approve the drug, citing its potential for abuse and overdose.
But last fall, the FDA approved the drug anyway, and it is expected to hit the market next month.
In December, New Hampshire Attorney General Joseph Foster joined with his counterparts in 28 other states in signing a letter urging the FDA to reconsider its approval of Zohydro ER.
Prescription opiates continue to pose big problems in New Hampshire, Foster told the New Hampshire Sunday News, including a spike in heroin addiction and overdoses.
Addicts often switch to heroin when they can no longer obtain painkillers legally, since heroin is cheaper than the prescription drugs illegally sold on the street.
"We have a heroin epidemic, and the heroin epidemic is linked to these lawful drugs," Foster said. "At a time when we're trying to fight these fights, the approval of this drug seems to be running counter to some of those efforts."
Dr. Gilbert Fanciullo is director of pain medicine at Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center. He was co-chairman of a national committee, appointed by the American Pain Society and American Society of Pain Medicine, that created guidelines for use of opioids in the United States.
Fanciullo said: "I know a lot about opioids, and I know a lot about the danger of addiction from the use of these drugs.
"I can see no medical advantage for allowing this drug on the market. And I can see enormous opportunities for injury to my patients and my neighbors.
"People who are addicted to these drugs will obtain these drugs, crush them up and snort them," he said. "So there's a very high risk, as far as I'm concerned, of abuse and addiction and diversion."
Fanciullo said he had followed the FDA advisory panel's 11-2 vote against approving the drug last year., so he was stunned when the agency later approved it.
He said his primary concern is that, unlike some prescription painkillers, Zohydro ER will not come in a tamper-resistant form, which prevents addicts from crushing the tablets and snorting the drug to get the maximum dose all at once.
"Hydrocodone for at least the last decade has been one of the two most abused drugs in the United States," along with Oxycontin, Fanciullo said.
"This is a drug that's one of the most abused drugs in the country, and all of a sudden, it's going to be available in a non-tamper-resistant form at high doses," he said. "Who's in charge?"
An FDA spokesman told the Sunday News last week the agency is "extremely concerned about the inappropriate use of opioids." However, FDA press officer Morgan Liscinsky said the agency had determined "after careful consideration" that Zohydro ER "meets our regulatory requirements" and that "the product's benefits outweigh its risks when used as intended."
The drug was not approved for "as-needed pain relief," Liscinsky said in an email, but should be reserved for "severe pain requiring daily, around the clock, long-term treatment and for which alternative treatment options are inadequate."
In a statement, Zogenix, which manufactures the drug, said the availability of an acetaminophen-free formulation of extended-release hydrocodone is "an important therapeutic option for chronic pain patients."
The company noted acetaminophen overdose is a leading cause of liver failure in the United States, and 63 percent of it can be attributed to the use of hydrocodone that contains that drug.
Sgt. Brian LeVeille, head of the Special Investigations Unit at the Manchester Police Department, said he's already received notice from the Drug Enforcement Administration that Zohydro ER is coming. One concern, LeVeille said, is that the new drug will come in higher doses than other prescription opiates on the market. And the lack of an abuse-deterrent formulation means it can be crushed and snorted, he said. "We've got a big enough problem with the oxycodone ... and now we're going to introduce something new out there that they can get their hands on?'' he said.
"I can tell you definitively, without a doubt, we don't even have any Zohydro addicts yet,'' LeVeille said, "but we will have them. And when we have them, they will not stay Zohydro addicts. They will shift to heroin."A single oxycodone pill costs $30 on the street; $100 buys a gram of heroin, which can provide five to 10 doses, depending on the level of addiction and tolerance, LeVeille said.
"That's why the heroin problem is so out of control right now," LeVeille said.
In their Dec. 10 letter, the attorneys general asked the FDA to either reconsider its approval of Zohydro ER or set a "rigorous" timeline for the drug to be reformulated to be abuse-deterrent. They also asked the FDA to work with other federal agencies to impose restrictions on how the drug can be marketed and prescribed.
In response, Sally Howard, the FDA's deputy commissioner for policy, planning and legislation, told the attorneys general that Zohydro ER was approved as a Schedule II controlled substance, which means it can only be dispensed with a written prescription (it can't be called in to a pharmacy) and no refills are allowed.
Howard noted there currently are no hydrocodone products with "meaningful" abuse-deterrent properties, but said the FDA will "do what we can" to support Zogenix in developing such a formula for Zohydro ER.
Meanwhile, questions are mounting about how the drug was approved.
Last week, U.S. Sens. Joe Manchin, D-W.Va., and David Vitter, R-La., sent a letter to the University of Rochester's medical school dean, raising concerns about what they called "pay-to-play" meetings hosted there between drug manufacturers and the FDA officials who regulate them.
The senators asked university officials to provide by March 30 detailed accounts of meetings at which drug company officials reportedly paid "upwards of" $35,000 to attend meetings with FDA officials. The senators also questioned the possible role those meetings played in the Zohydro approval process.
Asked about such allegations of improper influence, the FDA's Liscinsky said agency officials "currently are unaware of any improprieties" involving the groups that sponsored those meetings. "However, we are looking closely at these organizations and the FDA's involvement with them," she said.

Jurisdictional Issues
We make no representation that information on this Website or Services we provide are appropriate or available for use outside the United States. Those who choose to access this Website from outside the United States do so on their own initiative and at their own risk and are responsible for compliance with applicable local laws.
We may terminate any user's membership or access to our Website or Services, in our sole discretion, for any reason and at any time, with or without prior notice. It is our policy to terminate users who violate these Terms of Service, as deemed appropriate in our sole discretion. You agree that we are not liable to you or any third party for any termination of your access to our Website or Services.
These Terms of Service shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California. Any dispute relating in any way to your visit to, or use of, the Website, to the Services you purchase through the Website (including a membership), or to your relationship to Succession Link shall be submitted to confidential arbitration in San Diego, California; provided, however, that to the extent that you have in any manner violated or threatened to violate our intellectual property rights, we may seek injunctive or other appropriate relief in any state or federal court in the State of California. You hereby consent to, and waive all defenses of lack of personal jurisdiction and forum non-conveniens with respect to, venue and jurisdiction in the state and federal courts of California. Arbitration under these Terms of Service will be conducted pursuant to the Commercial Arbitration Rules then prevailing at the American Arbitration Association. The arbitrator's award will be final and binding and may be entered into as a judgment in any court of competent jurisdiction. To the fullest extent permitted by applicable law, no arbitration under these Terms of Service will be joined to an arbitration involving any other party subject to this Terms of Service, whether through class action proceedings or otherwise. You agree that regardless of any statute or law to the contrary, any claim or cause of action arising out of, related to or connected with the use of this Website or these Terms of Service must be filed within one (1) year after such claim of action arose or be forever banned.
Arbitration is more informal than a lawsuit in court. Arbitration uses a neutral arbitrator instead of a judge or jury, allows for more limited discovery than in court, and is subject to very limited review by courts. Arbitrators can award the same damages and relief that a court can award.
YOU AND SUCCESSION LINK AGREE THAT EACH MAY ONLY BRING CLAIMS AGAINST THE OTHER ONLY IN YOUR OR ITS INDIVIDUAL CAPACITY, AND NOT AS A PLAINTIFF OR CLASS MEMBER IN ANY PURPORTED CLASS OR REPRESENTATIVE PROCEEDING. Further, unless both you and Succession Link agree otherwise, the arbitrator may not consolidate more than one person's claims with your claims, and may not otherwise preside over any form of a representative or class proceeding. The arbitrator may award declaratory or injunctive relief only in favor of the individual party seeking relief and only to the extent necessary to provide relief warranted by that party's individual claim.
If any part of these Terms of Service is held to be unlawful, void, or unenforceable, that part will be deemed severable and shall not affect the validity and enforceability of the remaining provisions.
Entire Terms of Service
These Terms of Service constitute the entire agreement and understanding between the parties relating to the subject matter herein. We may, at our sole discretion and without notice, revise these terms at any time by updating this posting.
Except as explicitly stated otherwise, any notice required or permitted by this Terms of Service must be in writing. Any notice to Succession Link must be given by postal mail to 10620 Treena St, Suite 230, San Diego, CA 92131. Any notice to you may be given: (1) to the email address you provide to Succession Link during registration or when your email address changes, in which case notice will be deemed sufficient 24 hours after the email is sent unless the sending party is notified that the email address is invalid; or (2) by certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, to the last mailing address you provided to Succession Link, in which case notice will be deemed sufficient three days after the mailing date.
We shall not be liable for any failure to perform our obligations hereunder where such failure results from any cause beyond our reasonable control, including, without limitation, mechanical, electronic or communications failure or degradation. These Terms of Service are personal to you, and are not assignable, transferable or sublicensable by you except with our prior written consent. We may assign, transfer or delegate any of our rights and obligations hereunder without consent. No agency, partnership, joint venture, or employment relationship is created as a result of these Terms of Service and neither party has any authority of any kind to bind the other in any respect. Our failure to enforce any part of these Terms of Service shall not constitute a waiver of our right to later enforce that or any other part of these Terms of Service. Waiver of compliance in any particular instance does not mean that we will waive compliance in the future. In order for any waiver of compliance with these Terms of Service to be binding, we must provide you with written notice of such waiver through one of our authorized representatives.
Modifications to Terms of Service
We may change the Terms of Service at any time for any reason by updating this posting. You are responsible for periodically reviewing these Terms of Service for revisions. Changes in the Terms of Service will be effective when posted. If Succession Link makes a material change, Succession Link will notify you here in this Terms of Service or by any other means we deem appropriate. Succession Link may determine, in its sole discretion, in good faith, what constitutes a "material change" using common sense and reasonable judgment. Your use of the Website and/or the Services after we have modified this posting will constitute your acceptance of any changes.
