Nadler: Contempt vote 'not a step we take lightly'
Story No.:
Dateline: Washington - 8 May 2019
Date: 05/08/2019 04:02 PM
Washington, DC - 8 May 2019
1. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Jerrold Nadler, House Judiciary Committee Chairman (D-New York):
"Today we consider a report recommending that the House of Representatives hold Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress for defying a valid subpoena issued by this committee. This is not a step we take lightly. It is the culmination of nearly three months of requests, discussions and negotiations with the Department of Justice for the complete unredacted report by Special Counsel Mueller into Russian interference in the 2016 election, along with the underlying evidence."
2. Wide side shot of hearing
3. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Jerrold Nadler, House Judiciary Committee Chairman (D-New York):
"Besides misapplying the doctrine of executive privilege, since the White House waived these privileges long ago, and the Department seemed open to sharing these materials with us just yesterday, this decision represents a clear escalation in the Trump administration's blanket defiance of Congress' constitutionally mandated duties. I hope that the department will think better of this last minute outburst and return to negotiations. As a coequal branch of government, we must have access to the materials that we need to fulfill our constitutional responsibilities in a manner consistent with past precedent."
4. Side shot of hearing
5. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Jerrold Nadler, House Judiciary Committee Chairman (D-New York):
"The president has stated that his administration will oppose all subpoenas and in fact virtually all document requests are going unsatisfied. Witnesses are refusing to show up at hearings. This is unprecedented. If allowed to go unchecked, this obstruction means the end of congressional oversight. As a coequal branch of government, we should not and cannot allow this to continue or we will not be a coequal branch of government."
6. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Doug Collins, House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member (R- Georgia):
"What a cynical, mean spirited, counterproductive, irresponsible step it is. Meanwhile, our economy is surging, unemployment among several minority groups is at a historic low, a recent Washington Post poll shows cratering support for impeachment. But Democrats have no plans, no purpose and no viable legislative agenda beyond attacking this administration."
7. Side shot of hearing
8. SOUNDBITE (English) Rep. Doug Collins, House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member (R- Georgia):
"Mr. Chairman, it did not have to be this way. We could have postpone today's vote and accepted the attorney general's offer, instead by not honoring the Constitution's charge to seek accommodations when possible, the prestige of this committee has been diminished. As a result, that should concern us all."
FOR CLEAN VERSION SEE STORY NUMBER: apus116663
The White House is invoking executive privilege, reserving the right to block lawmakers from accessing the full report from special counsel Robert Mueller on the Russia probe and escalating President Donald Trump's battle with Congress.
The administration's decision was announced just as the House Judiciary Committee was gaveling in to consider holding Attorney General William Barr in contempt of Congress over failure to release the report.
Committee Chairman Jerrold Nadler of New York declared the action by Trump's Justice Department was a clear new sign of the president's "blanket defiance" of Congress' constitutional rights.
"This is unprecedented," Nadler said. "If allowed to go unchecked, this obstruction means the end of congressional oversight. As a coequal branch of government, we should not and cannot allow this to continue or we will not be a coequal branch of government."
In a letter Wednesday to Trump, Barr explained that the special counsel's files contain millions of pages of classified and unclassified information.
He said the committee's "abrupt report to a contempt vote" has not allowed sufficient time for the president to make a decision on whether to assert executive privilege and urged Trump to do so now.
Democrats on the committee said the Trump administration was trampling on Congress's duty to conduct oversight.
But the top Republican on the panel, Rep. Doug Collins of Georgia, called the majority's decision to push ahead with a contempt resolution "cynical, mean-spirited, counterproductive and irresponsible."
Barr released a redacted version of Mueller's report to the public last month, but Democrats said they want to see the full document, along with underlying evidence, and subpoenaed the full report . The department has rejected that demand, while allowing a handful of lawmakers to view a version of Mueller's report with fewer redactions.
If the committee holds Barr in contempt, it would be the first step in what could be a protracted, multipronged court battle between Congress and the Trump administration.

The Giants did not get much rest before their game Monday in Colorado started. They will have to play another in a few hours and two more in the next two days.
Still, the Giants batters are not complaining and don't want this to end.
In the hot and easy-traveling air of Coors Field, San Francisco erupted, scoring 12 runs in three innings and destroying Colorado starter German Marquez — the same pitcher who tossed a one-hitter at Oracle Park in April.
The rout was on immediately, five of the six first Giants batters recording hits; the one out was a Pablo Sandoval sacrifice bunt. Brandon Crawford and Mike Yastrzemski went back-to-back to conclude the scoring of a five-run first.
They took an inning off — zero runs in the second — before they went back to work.
*Buster Posey has joined the chat*

The Giants batted around in the third, highlights including a Yastrzemski two-run double and Buster Posey two-run shot to deep center. Through three innings, Brandon Belt, Posey, Alex Dickerson, Crawford and Yastrzemski each had a pair of hits. Meanwhile, the Rockies had one against Jeff Samardzija.

Reviews (4.3 out of 5 Grommets)
This was my first purchase of Tear Mender and I was pleasantly surprised at how easy it was to use and how quickly my mending was done.Very happy with this product and would highly recommend this product.
This makes minor repairs like unravelling hems a breeze. Wonderful stuff! It is pretty runny though. The first time I used it I ended up with it all over my hands. Wasn't a big deal, however, because it just rubs right off your hands. Now that I know that I am more careful about squeezing the bottle & love this fabric glue!
I love the tear mender it works just like it says it does.
Great product.
Upon receiving the Tear Mender, I used it to fix a hole in the pocket of my golf shorts. Carrying golf tees and golf balls around in my pocket made a fairly large hole. I followed the instruction and bonded the two sides of the pocket bottom together and, voila, the pocket was fixed and the shorts usable again. I mended this pocket at least two times with needle and thread. Now we'll see if the Tear Mender is superior to the needle and thread! So far, so good.
My husband always wears a hole in his jeans by the right front pocket and I was able to put this on and he got many more months of wear for working than he would have. Definitely good to have on hand.
I use the product often, and it enabled me to repair the fragile back fabric of an antique chair. There are a gazillion uses for it.
I love this! I repaired a belt loop on my son's jeans, a small tear in our living room carpet, my older son is going to use it to repair a pair of shoes, I'm going to repair a tear on the arm of my Jazzy chair! I intend to use this on everything! You don't need a lot to repair anything, it works so well I wish I would have had this years ago!
This stuff is great. I purchased with no specific use in mind at the time. I thought it might be handy to have around my furniture store in case a repair was needed on a sofa or something. When I got it home I was showing my wife and I remembered an old pair of shorts I use for gardening and such. The pocket was falling off and I had tried to sew it before but it kept ripping. "Bring on the tear mender!" I told my wife that in 3 minutes my shorts would be like new. (She said they could never be like new again) I used it as directed and within three minutes you couldn't pull that pocket of with pliers!! Thanks for a product that works as advertised!
I used the Tear Mender on a denim jacket and it worked perfectly. Thank you to the product's maker !!
My husband had torn his brand new shirt and this fixed it in no time!
The Tear Mender Story
Quick Fix for Rips
During the 1930s, Val "the Bish" Cismoski came up with a way to quickly repair canvas belts on steam-powered machinery, so farmers wouldn't have to lose precious harvesting time to replace a torn belt. Fast-forward 75 years, and we're putting the same formula to use mending ripped clothes, torn seat cushions and frayed shoelaces.
Tear Mender is a natural and non-toxic liquid adhesive that bonds fabric upon contact. You can apply it like glue on a tear, or spread it on a fabric patch, and it bonds in minutes. Repaired fabrics stay flexible and soft even after washing, says Jerry Cismoski, (on the left) who is the Bish's son and runs the third-generation company.
So if you've got a dropped hem, a broken belt loop, or a run in the carpet, give Tear Mender a try. It also works great on tears in the seat of your car, damaged sports gear, or rips in a tent (it's waterproof and UV-resistant). Why throw out something that you can easily repair with Tear Mender?

The Fortnite map has gone through a lot of iterations. Locations come and go with new ones popping up every single season. Can you keep track of all the changes?
The Fortnite map is an ever-changing landscape with all types random events taking place. We've seen pretty much everything you can imagine and more…yet we still think that we have a whole lot more to come.
Keeping track of all the changes can be a full-time job. We've seen volcanoes, floating islands, icebergs, deserts coming from swamps…it's a lot.
So, we decided that the topic is challenging enough for the average casual player to make a little quiz for. It's always fun to challenge your mind a tiny bit with some gaming trivia.
The Skins Quiz a while back featured some difficult questions all throughout, so we scaled back the difficulty just a tad for this one. Don't expect to pass with flying colors unless you have that Fortnite map knowledge in your noggin, however.
The quiz consists of 15 questions, each includes a picture that may or may not help you with the question. Relying on the pictures alone may lead to a few unfortunate mishaps.
The questions range from map location info to removed named/unnamed locations to item spawns and more. It's pretty straightforward and we hope you have fun with it!
You can tell us how you did in the comments below or you can head to Twitter at @FortniteINTEL to tweet us your score. You can also keep your score a secret if you choose, but we recommend claiming the bragging rights as soon as possible.

I've had big boobs for as long as I can remember... I spent most of my teenage years trying to hide them because they were always the topic of discussion wherever I went, and this took a great toll on my self-esteem. Finding a fitting bra was close to impossible and I found myself having to put on two bras at times. I did try to lose weight, but I lost it at all other areas except for my chest area and as the years went by my breasts just kept on growing bigger. At size 36J I had constant neck, shoulder pain, headaches and I had permanent indentations and bruising on my shoulders. My posture was also affected by the weight of my breasts and I knew it was time for me to do something about it after so many years of contemplating. I decided to go with Dr. Tilman Stasch and I'm so glad I did. I found him very organized, professional and empathetic. I felt the relief immediately post-op; I mean a huge load had been literally lifted off my chest! Now almost 7weeks later I couldn't be happier, they've healed quite beautifully, the scars are barely visible and I just love how they look (my hubby loves them too)! What can I say, thank you so much Dr. Tilman Stasch for the transformation.

Extinctions vary in intensity from normal low-level background to major events where some 50% of the total species of plants and animals disappear. Of the many global restructurings that have been detected, only five qualify as mass extinctions. The best publicized occurred around the Cretaceous-Tertiary (K/T) boundary some 65.5 mya and coincides with the demise of the dinosaurs. The many theories that have been proposed for the cause of these extinctions have broadly divided the scientific community into two camps, the catastrophists and the gradualists, and pivot around the central issue of time span. How fast did the detected extinctions take place? Was the time frame overnight, over centuries, millennia, or millions of years? Unfortunately, the fossil record is fraught with problems and inconsistencies that make it difficult, if not impossible, to interpret the timing and magnitude of extinctions. Some of the more obvious difficulties are listed in appendix C.
What do the catastrophists say? They tend to favor a mass extinction that was instantaneous or occurred over an unspecified but short time, geologically-speaking. Their theory involves the meteor (or comet) impact proposed by Alvarez and his group.336 Ample physical evidence has been collected to indicate that an impact occurred in the sea,9 including an iridium spike in the soil at the K/T boundary, shocked quartz, tektites, and a crater of the correct size at Chicxulub in the Yucatan Peninsula.
The gradualists do not deny that an impact occurred, but they also consider other physical events that occurred around the K/T boundary, including marine regression—a drastic decline in sea level—increased volcanism, and climatic changes. Many feel that it's either too early to say or that the available facts are insufficient to support either an abrupt and/or mass extinction. The gradualist's explanations tend to favor a series of accelerated background extinctions—a random grouping of coincidental events before and at the K/T boundary that had a cumulative, global effect.
Perhaps the best way to illustrate the necessity of reappraising the terminal Cretaceous extinctions would be to examine today's world. Keep in mind that by definition, at least 50% of all species must have perished for a mass extinction to occur. If an extinction event happened right now and killed off all terrestrial and aquatic animals except insects, that loss would only be about 25% of the total animals. If 50% of the vertebrates died out, as was suggested to happen at the K/T boundary, it would represent only about 2% of all animals. To a vertebrate zoologist, the loss would be significant, and the rest of us would probably concur because after all, we are vertebrates, but that would not make it a mass extinction.
How abrupt was the demise of those organisms that appeared to die out at the K/T boundary? The answer depends on the particular scientist's viewpoint. The literature abounds with contradictions centering on who, where, and when. Many of the groups whose populations were examined around the K/T boundary were marine forms, and it has been estimated that approximately 38% of the animal genera in the sea became extinct at the K/T boundary,298 even though most of the major families survived. Genera that disappeared included some marine reptiles, certain lines of bony fish, sponges, snails, clams, cephalopods, sea urchins, and foraminifera, particularly those from shallow tropical seas. However, many of these appear to have already been declining in diversity prior to the K/T boundary. Among the giant marine reptiles, ichthyosaurs disappeared well before the event, ple-siosaurs were decreasing at the time, but the mosasaurs appeared to have been thriving 65.5 mya.299
Many of the marine groups that did disappear, such as the ammonites and the belemnites, both cephalopods, and the microscopic foraminifera, were also declining far before the K/T boundary, indicating that other factors threatened their existence. Thus these extinctions cannot be directly tied to a catastrophic impact at the end of the Cretaceous. If some of these threatened groups were keystone species, then their demise was undoubtedly directly linked to the extinction of other organisms that depended on them for survival. Such a scenario possibly occurred with the demise of rudist clams, the major component in Cretaceous reef architecture.300 The loss of reef habitats due to their decline and disappearance would have eliminated an enormous number of codependent species that depended on such environs for survival. The cause of rudist clam extinctions may have been as simple as a disease intensified by marine regression and accompanied by changes in ocean currents and temperatures.
Similar inconsistencies have been noted with terrestrial plants, the very foundation of the food chain. The data regarding K/T plant extinctions is conflicting but suggests a global pattern. Many scientists agree that there was a latitudinal effect because, based on spore and pollen remains, vegetation in the more southern latitudes (Australia, New Zealand, and Antarctica) was relatively unaltered. The more northern latitudes also indicated fewer floral turnovers than mid-latitudes, and even regional differences were noted. Much of the data reveals variable species turnover before and at the K/T boundary. And it appears that angiosperms were the most affected by events of the K/T transition. The most severe effects on plants have been reported from the Hell Creek Formation in the western interior of the United States. Changes in fossil leaf morphology there were interpreted as evidence of a 79% turnover in plants at the K/T boundary, but this was after a 75% turnover observed prior to that. So plants in that area were already in a state of flux. In contrast, palynoflora (pollen) data from the same area imply only a 30% plant extinction rate.301302 Another pollen study also indicated that species were changing before the K/T boundary, as plant pollen became unusually small. This was interpreted as evidence that ecosystems were transitioning and that plants were probably at the edge of their preferred geographic range as well as stressed from climatic changes, as the community structure went from open to closed habitats.303 In contrast, in the Raton Formation of New Mexico and Colorado, 85% of the plant species are thought to have survived,304 which is similar to the 70% proposed survival rate in Saskatchewan.305
This apparent variability in plant extinctions may be attributable to there being very few fossil sites with plants and dinosaurs that span the Cretaceous-Tertiary boundary. Presently these are confined to the western interior of North America, although sites in South America and Asia hold promise for contributing additional information. Those at the Hell Creek/Lower Tullock formations in eastern Montana have been used extensively to gauge the severity of extinctions at the K/T boundary. One problem with this limited data pool is that the changes noted there might be an anomaly. Since extinctions seen in leaf fossils around the K/T boundary at Hell Creek do not seem to be supported by information gleaned from studies in more southern and northern global latitudes, nor by the pollen record, one is left to wonder if the changes there were related to some short-term localized phenomena.
One of the abiotic causes for regional extinctions could have been drought. Some data has suggested that the Hell Creek area was seasonally much drier than originally thought. To see how catastrophic a drought can be, consider the most well-known one in the United States. It created the infamous Dust Bowl that devastated the Great Plains in the 1930s, lasted more than a decade, and by 1934 had affected 75% of the country and twenty-seven states.306-308 Lack of water was exacerbated by overgrazing and by replacing deep-rooted native plants with shallow-rooted agricultural crops. Hot, dry windstorms picked up the topsoil and created dust clouds so thick that it was dark at noon. The windborne soil was carried over 1,500 miles away. About 90 million acres (140,625 mi2 = 3.64 x 105 km2) of farmland was destroyed or severely damaged. How amazing that this amount of habitat destruction occurred in such a geologically insignificant time frame. Facts have been presented indicating that the drought was caused by anomalous tropical sea-surface temperatures and amplified by interactions between the atmosphere and the land surface.307 So it is easy to image that droughts, dinosaur overgrazing, and a dearth of deep-rooted plants might account for the successive turnovers in fossil vegetation noted at Hell Creek. Other scenarios could also explain what are perceived as drastic localized extinction events, such as periodic incursions and regressions of the inland seas that destroyed old habitats and created new ones. These possibilities underscore the necessity for investigating many other vertebrate and plant fossil sites that span the K/T boundary globally before arriving at definite conclusions about extinctions.
Estimating insect extinctions at the K/T boundary is hindered by gaps in the fossil record throughout the Late Cretaceous and Early Tertiary. There are currently no sites with enough fossils bridging the K/T boundary to determine if and when various groups disappeared. Second, insects were so diverse that to observe a 50% loss of species would be impossible with the available fossils. Knowing that these caveats exist, insects appear to have passed the K/T boundary relatively unscathed.309-312 This is based on the examination of higher taxa, especially families, that persisted into the Tertiary. Since an insect extinction event was observed in the mid-Cretaceous using these taxa levels,35 if one of a similar magnitude occurred at the K/T boundary, it should be detectable. Since insect species represent the majority of animal diversity, why haven't they even been mentioned in most discussions of mass extinctions?
Ninety-six percent of all animal life are invertebrates,309 and this figure does not even include unicellular or microbial organisms like protozoa. A large portion of those are soft-bodied and not amenable to fossilization, so any population changes at the K/T boundary cannot be assessed. Others with a reasonable Tertiary fossil record, such as spiders, are poorly represented in Cre taceous deposits. Those with a poor fossil record, such as the mites and the lesser-known fossil arachnid groups (scorpions, daddy longlegs, wind spiders, whip scorpions, pseudoscorpions), as well as millipedes and centipedes, also have not been considered in estimating losses at the K/T boundary. Thus, aside from the dinosaurs, only a few marine invertebrate groups with hardened parts have been used to evaluate K/T extinctions. Perhaps at this point in time, with the incompleteness and bias of the fossil record, scientists need to reevaluate the data. Since the fossil record of common invertebrate groups is so poorly known, estimating possible extinctions at the K/T boundary has to be based on their present diversity and distribution.320 An example is the nematodes, extremely important organisms in the ecosystem not only as animal parasites but because they are responsible for 50% of the energy flow in the soil, and their feeding can decrease above-ground plant production by 30-60%.66
In numbers of individuals, nematodes are probably one of the most abundant invertebrate groups on the face of the earth, ranging from 3 billion in an acre of soil and 1.5 billion in the upper 20 mm of an acre of marine beach sand313 to 9 million in a square meter of temperate grassland.314 As many as 71 species have been recovered from just 100 grams of grassland soil.315 While only some 20,000 species have been described, estimates of their diversity range from 500,000 to 10 million species.279 316 They occur in soil, fresh water, and the marine environment as well as inside plants and animals. Because of the cosmopolitan distribution of so many genera today, it is obvious that many terrestrial microbotrophic (utilizing microbes as food) as well as plant and animal parasitic nematode lineages317-319 extend back to the period when all continents were united into the supercontinent Pangaea. Yet their fossil record is virtually nonexistant.
There is no doubt that large non-avian dinosaurs died out sometime around the K/T boundary. Debate still rages whether they were already experiencing a loss in diversity by the Late Cretaceous. Some consider that both genera and species declined dramatically in the Maastrichtian by about 40%,321343 while oth ers argue for no loss and perhaps even an increase in diver-sity,322,323,342 and some suggest that dinosaurs were holding their own.324 While the dictum is that all dinosaurs died out at the K/T boundary, there are several reports of dinosaur fossils after the Cretaceous. One well-documented study provides convincing evidence that some fossils date from the Paleocene and were not redeposited. Bones of ornithomimids, dromaeosaurs, sauror-nithoidids, ankylosaurs, nodosaurs and hadrosaurs were recovered in the Ojo Alamo beds of the San Juan Basin in New Mexico, not more than 965 miles from the Chicxulub meteor impact site.325 But how could large dinosaurs survive so close to ground zero? The authors suggest that they endured as buried eggs that hatched after the impact event. But if dinosaurs did survive into the Paleocene, how much longer did they last?
All of the proposed events impacting the planet's ecosystems over a ten-million-year time span around the K/T boundary would have had similar drastic consequences. They resulted in physical changes in the land surface. The marine regression that occurred from 70-60 mya culminated in a 11.2 million mi2 loss of ocean primarily in shallow neritic areas and epicontinental seas, with a concomitant increase in land.9 The Deccan Traps volcan-ism originally resulted in an approximately 772,200 mi2 basaltic flow up to 7,872 ft deep across parts of India that accumulated 69-63 mya.339 And the meteor impact on the Yucatan peninsula right at 65.5 mya carved an underwater crater with an area estimated to range from as little as 2,826 mi2 to as much as 27,300 mi2 and threw debris into the atmosphere.340 341 The volcanic activity and the meteor impact caused some similar consequences: release of heat, air pollution with increases in CO2 and SO2, toxic fallout including acid rain, ozone damage, diminished sunlight, and contaminated water. The difference is that the Deccan Traps volcanism was episodic over 6 million years, while the meteor produced an environmental impact that lasted for a much shorter period.
The three major events surrounding the K/T boundary produced some common repercussions, including changes in ocean temperatures and salinity, as well as in global wind patterns and worldwide terrestrial temperatures. In addition, marine regression was accompanied by changes in ocean currents, wave action, and the addition of 11.2 million mi2 of land.9 The latter brought about shifts in coastlines, the formation of land bridges, and an increase in freshwater lotic systems as the distance that rivers and streams flowed to reach the seas extended.
Some areas may have been more impacted than others, while effects such as climate change would have been worldwide (fig. 39). Many of the results would have been cumulative, with all working in tandem to produce a greater outcome than one event. Obviously the planet was suffering from a series of environmental stresses for an extended period of time, and these would have affected all life forms.
Although most generally accepted theories for the causes of the Cretaceous-Tertiary extinction events center around marine regression, meteor impact, or volcanism, many other condi-tions326 could have added to the stress load of endangered species, thereby decreasing their vigor and making them susceptible to extinction.
Abiotic factors would have had diverse and harmful effects on all life forms. Just as climatic change can be considered a direct abiotic corollary to these three events, disease is certainly a biotic corollary shared by them. Anytime an ecosystem is challenged by harmful physical events, the organisms within it experience stress, virulent pathogens appear, and epidemics run rampant.
We believe that disease played a significant role in dinosaur extinction during the terminal Cretaceous. The importance of diseases in shaping ecosystems should not be overlooked. Animals can be brought to the brink of extinction by disease, and a combination of other factors can institute, contribute to, or finish off the process.
We are not talking about a single disease wiping out all dinosaurs, but rather the cumulative, cascading effects of many diseases working along with major contributing abiotic elements and diverse biotic factors such as those discussed in previous
Figure 39. This map illustrates the probable sites of the confluent events 60-70 millions years ago (mya) that framed the K/T boundary. The configuration of the continents and their positions is based on a comparison of the Maastrichtian and Pale-ocene maps of Smith et al.9 Light gray represents exposed, old land. Dark gray represents newly acquired land due to marine regression from 70 to 60 mya. These same darkened areas then also represent loss of neritic (continental shelf) seas, the primary source of life and energy production in the oceans. The extant of the basaltic floods associated with the Deccan Traps is shown in black.339 The putative site of the meteor impact on the Yucatan Peninsula, the Chicxulub crater, is ringed. This site was apparently submerged from the Aptian (120 mya) to the Late Eocene (37 mya) and therefore at the time of impact. The present-day outlines of the continents are shown. Extensive areas in Africa, Europe, northern India, central North America, and north-central South America were submerged.
chapters. Others have suggested that diseases could have contributed to Late Cretaceous extinctions. Over ten years ago, Robert Desowitz, a medical parasitologist, suggested that an epi demic of reptilian kala azar (an especially lethal form of leishmaniasis) transmitted by sand flies could have caused the extinction of the dinosaurs.327 But there was no evidence of any Cretaceous pathogens at that time. However, amber studies have shown that vertebrate pathogens were indeed present in the distant past and could have been significant causes of mortality.
As we have pointed out, the effects of Leishmania and malaria on dinosaurs could have been quite severe, especially if they already had compromised immune systems. A current example of how pathogens act in concert is Leishmania and HIV coinfections in humans. The synergistic effect of these two maladies causes a very serious new disease complex since the HIV virus weakens the patients' immune system and allows the Leishmania to spread unimpeded into internal tissues.328
In today's world, pathogens have been implicated in the demise of many species, and such parasite-driven host extinctions can occur in populations of any size, especially when host reproduction is significantly reduced.329 The decline and extinction of frogs in tropical American and Australian rain forests are now considered the result of fungal diseases enhanced by a slight rise in global temperatures.330 331 The devastating bluetongue disease of ruminants has spread into northern Europe within the past decade as a result of climatic changes, allowing the virus to be acquired and transmitted by endemic species of biting midges and resulting in the deaths of over one million sheep.165
The recent extinctions of endemic Hawaiian birds by malaria show how damaging a disease can be when introduced, along with its vector, into populations of immunologically naive hosts.332 A land snail in the Pacific Islands was driven to extinction by a microsporidian parasite.333 Examples of introduced pathogens causing the decimation of human populations include measles and mumps in Native Americans, as well as pandemics of plague, typhus, Asian flu, and yellow fever. Pathogens are constantly mutating and producing new strains capable of infecting different host groups. That is why a global pandemic of the avian flu virus is considered likely in wild mammals, birds, and even humans if an especially pathogenic mutant appears.334
The world was changing as the Cretaceous came to an end. The spread of flowering plants pollinated by insects modified the ecosystem, insects competed with dinosaurs for food, and insects and other arthropods transmitted emerging pathogens. At the same time there were periods of temperature change, marine regression, volcanic eruptions, and one or more meteor impacts. Such a confluence of biotic and abiotic events would have been a perfect setting for the spread of diseases.
Although it is difficult to believe that microscopic organisms could render one of the final knockout blows to such powerful giants as the dinosaurs, it nevertheless stands as a feasible scenario when viewed in the overall context of already threatened and debilitated populations. Whether a catastrophist or gradualist, you cannot discount the probability that diseases, especially those vectored by miniscule insects, played an important role in exterminating the dinosaurs.

Let me correct myself!
1. "Stereo Grand Piano" is actually a QuadraCard, not a QCard. It was designed for the older QuadraSynth. However, it works fine in all other QS synths, except for a few sounds that only play correctly in an original QuadraSynth. It includes 128 Sounds and 100 Mixes.
2. "Stereo Classical Piano" (ZB) QCard includes 128 Preset Sounds with sounds 0-63 the same as 64-127. It does not include 100 Mixes.
3. "Stereo Grand Piano Plus" (Z6) QCard includes 128 Sounds and 100 Mixes.

How to Help a Friend Dealing with DV
ibonnie posted 1/29/2019 12:46 PM
I have a very dear friend I've known since pre-k. Our 2yos are only a few months apart, so we grew even closer going through pregnancy/newborn stages together. She was a HUGE support when I was dealing with my WS cheating.
Her LTBF (together on and off for almost a decade, but on for the last few years since they had a baby together) is an alcoholic. He doesn't drink every day, but every few weeks he goes on binges. Then he'll be "better" and sober for a few weeks before falling off the wagon. His family enables him.
She says things are "great" when he's not drinking... If only he would stop drinking... He's a great dad... Until he starts drinking and disappears for a day or two and leaves her stranded to make other childcare arrangements (he usually picks up LO from daycare). I try to be supportive, but what can I do/say? He has a drinking problem.
Well, now it's escalated, and he hit her twice in the past couple of months. Gave her a black eye, but he was drunk when he did it, and she didn't think he meant to, he was just reacting, and if only he would stop drinking... Excuses. But it's like being a lobster in a pot, right? If he had hit her on their first date, she would have been gone. Now they have a family and plenty of "good times" for her to look back on.
I don't know what to do. I don't know how to help her or be suppportive, other than to listen. I told her she and her LO are *always* welcome to come over, at anytime, even in the middle of the night.
She's embarrassed and doesn't want anyone to know. She doesn't want to tell her family because she doesn't know how they would react. They're not terribly supportive and don't live nearby, but his family is supportive and does live nearby.
The cost of living where we are is astronomical, and it would be nearly impossible for her to afford her own apartment AND pay for daycare if he stopped supporting her financially. My friend is basically on her own, and his supportive-but-enabling family is very well off and there are lawyers in his family, so if they continued to back their son and not my friend, she'd be at a major disadvantage.
Anyways, I just feel useless. I offered to help her in any way I could. I offered to help her put a lock on the inside of her LO's bedroom door, so if it happened again, she could lock herself in the room. I told her to call the police if he does it again, because she needs to protect herself and he needs to face consequences for his actions...
I know all of her family, but haven't said anything to them because I don't want to betray her trust and I don't believe she's told anyone else. But I feel like I'm complicit now in hiding that she's being abused.
Any advice on how I can help her would be greatly appreciated. I feel so guilty right now, but I just don't know what to do.
wildbananas posted 1/29/2019 13:02 PM
I haven't dealt with this with a friend but I have with one of my kids. Said kid was in an abusive relationship for three years and it was so hard. I helped this kid get to a shelter, get a restraining order, offered shelter, did whatever I could to help. The final straw was my kid being ran off the road by the (thankfully now ex) boyfriend and the car totaled.
From this experience, I've learned that people don't leave until they're ready, no matter what you do or say. My kid left time and again but always went back, sometimes after weeks or months. The biggest thing is be there for them. Keep the lines of communication open. Recommend things when you feel they're open to listening but don't go off on them because sadly, that's counterproductive, even when it's from a place of concern and fear.
One thing we did was have a couple safe words in place between the two of us - one for call 911 NOW and one for "He's listening/reading, be careful what you talk/text about."
It's such a heartbreaking thing. I hope your friend reaches out and gets the help she needs.

Try to go to Al Anon with her.
She's almost certainly co-dependent and she needs real support.

Encourage her to see her physician and then ask for resources while there.
Shelter, Therapy, How to apply for WIC, SNAP, etc.
I have zero tolerance to staying with an abuser. If they have physically hurt you, then you are at risk as these behaviors usually escalate.
She needs to plan and have an emergency go bag, with all her important papers, and clothes for a couple of days for her and the baby, and some cash to stay someplace for a few days.
Try not to be judgmental, and be supportive. And like wildbananas said she won't leave until she is ready to leave. Just hope that she is ready before something truly bad happens to her.
ibonnie posted 1/29/2019 16:30 PM

Shelter, Therapy, How to apply for WIC, SNAP, etc.
She has no insurance, so she doesn't have a regular physician, goes to an urgent care place when sick.
She doesn't qualify for most of those programs because she makes about $45k, so too much to qualify. But the average cost of a studio apartment where we live is $28,200/year, and daycare average is $16,250/year. That's $44,450. Her LTBF makes considerably more (has his own small business, which is big in Japan), but since he has his own company, I'd imagine trying to get CS deducted from his paycheck would be difficult if it gets sent to his office and either he or his partner are the ones filling it out...
Not to mention there's a huge homelessness problem where we live, and there's usually a waitlist to get into a shelter... a major newspaper just did a whole expose on the cracked/decrepit/rat & roach infestation/water leak problems most shelter have, not to mention you have to be homeless for a certain period of time and on a waitlist...
I have zero tolerance to staying with an abuser. If they have physically hurt you, then you are at risk as these behaviors usually escalate.
I'm not trying to justify her staying, but I understand not wanting to leave her daughter behind and/or be homeless with her and/or staying in a city shelter with her, as those options aren't exactly the safest, either.

My father was murdered by my mother when I was 16. Shot him 6 times and watched him take his last breath. They had divorced 18 months earlier but she was always crazy and abusive, even to us kids. He had all 5 of us at the time.
PLEASE encourage her to leave. My father never thought my mother would kill him. Most abuse victims believe that, too. Unfortunately, they're often wrong. She needs to think about what this is teaching her children. I promise poor is better than dead.
ArkLaMiss posted 1/31/2019 01:03 AM
She needs an escape plan and to start putting money aside. She also needs a bag packed and hidden with clothes and important documents, like birth certificates and passports. Also, program the local police department's number in her phone as well as the local domestic violence shelter's as well, under something else. Make sure she has a place to go to day or night, just in case.
deena04 posted 1/31/2019 04:28 AM
Hook her up with her local abuse hotline and advocates. They can help establish a plan and be there when she goes to court. They can also show her it is not ok to live this way.
Followtheriver posted 1/31/2019 12:04 PM
Look up abused women's support groups in your area. They are usually sponsored by local churches (there is no affiliation, just free meeting space) community centers or the local Y. You can go to just listen and even stay anonymous if you wish. The meetings are free and open to any woman who needs support for all forms of abuse.
Collect the information and talk to your friend about going. Make sure she knows that there is no judgment or pressure, just support from other women who understand what she is going through. If she is not sure, offer to go with her if you can. Of course you can't force her to go if she doesn't want to but if you are willing, go to a meeting without her. Let her know that you are going because you love her, want to support her and want to be the kind of friend that she has been for you.
I know that in my area there is a big difference between our battered womens shelters and the homeless shelters. But I can understand your concern. They are a short term solution for a long term problem. Our battered womens shelters and safe houses are in single family homes that are safe and well cared for. You share common areas but have your own bedroom unless there is a full moon. It may not be an ideal situation but in an emergency, it could seem like the Ritz.
Your friend should pack what is called a go bag for herself and the baby. A small duffel bag works well. She should put some cash, a credit card, a burner phone with important numbers preprogrammed in, (they are a good thing for the right cause) copies of birth certificates, passport, her driver's license, a change of clothes. Things that the baby might need, a few diapers, an extra pacifier, a favorite toy and small blanket. You get the idea. Pack 2 and keep one out of sight but easy to get to and put the other in the trunk of your car. Make sure it is not too heavy and you can lift it with one hand.
Your friend needs to document everything if for no other reason than proof for herself when she is gas lighted. It is very important to take pictures of any and all injuries. If you happen to have an extra var laying around, give her one.
Now I'm just going to be very honest with you. Your friend's LTBF is probably not going to stop drinking until he hits rock bottom and with family always there with a safety net along with excuses, he never will.
ibonnie, I hope you will trust me on this part. The physical violence will not only continue it will eventually escalate. It will start happening with more frequency and sooner or later, probably sooner, it will happen when he is sober. It is just a matter of time.
For right now all you can do is be there for her. She does not want to accept what deep down she already knows but hopefully with your support, she will do what is best for her and the baby. Also, her LTBF may sense a change in status quo if and when she feels more empowered. If he thinks that your friendship is in anyway the cause, he will view it as a threat and try to isolate her from you.
I commend you for standing by her and willing to get involved. Both of you are lucky to have each other. I can also appreciate not wanting to betray her trust but there may come a time when she needs more help than you alone can give. So be willing to risk the friendship when you feel that keeping her secret is detrimental. Trust yourself to do what is best for her because right now, you are the only one doing that. I'll be here if you need me.
ibonnie posted 2/3/2019 19:39 PM
Thank you all for the responses, I appreciate the advice and ideas on where to start.
I saw my friend this weekend, but we didn't have a chance to discuss anything (other people around)... but I have to say it's very, very jarring to smile and make small talk with her LTBF knowing what happened. However, didn't want to give him any inkling that I knew what happened recently.
PricklePatch posted 2/3/2019 23:07 PM
over the years one thing I learned is not to talk about the abuser. Inevitably people go back to their abuser and you become the enemy.
Go bag is smart. Also have her start buying grocery gift cards.
homewrecked2011 posted 2/4/2019 03:24 AM
She can get confidential counseling at the DV center. You cannot believe how awesome the counselors are there!!!!
Many of them were in the same situations, got help and now help other women!! They are trained on how to get the woman to start thinking for themselves that they need to be free of the guy.
And also Alanon has phone meetings, the numbers are on their website.
Gottagetthrough posted 2/6/2019 04:35 AM
Some DV shelters have assistance programs to help a survivor get on their feet.
I understand your friend is in a tough position, and unfortunately so many people find themselves in the same exact position when leaving. Its not just emotionally breaking away, its also, How can I afford to leave
I hope the local DV advocates can give your friend some good advice.

Mosque "Hazret-Sultan"
Priceless diamond of Astana, conveying the true spirit and culture of the Eastern world
Central Asia's largest mosque, Khazret-Sultan, is a young Muslim prayer edifice, but it has already become one of the main religious and spiritual attractions of the city.
The mosque was named in honor of the Sufi sheikh - Khoja Ahmet Yassawi - and in Russian is called the "Holy Sultan". The area occupied by the building covers 11 hectares, and the building itself can accommodate 10,000 people. White color has great dignity in Islam, therefore this color was chosen as the main color of the facade of the building and its interior. There are prayer halls, rooms for reading the Koran (Muslim scripture), a wedding hall and rooms for seminars and lectures.
"Khazret-Sultan" Mosque is a priceless diamond of Astana, conveying the true spirit and culture of the Eastern world.

Welcome to our plant search tool. This database contains many of the thousands of plants that we carry. There are some notable exceptions. Hundreds of new perennials come out every year and Make It Green has been a leader in making them available to you. Eventually the recent introductions will make it to our plant search tool but every year there will be a lag between our in-store plant selection and this search tool. Unfortunately this search tool can't cover everything that we will carry this year. We also carry over 100 varieties of rare and unusual evergreens and over 100 varieties of hard-to-find shrubs many of which are not in the plant search. Click on the Plant List button for a list of nearly all the woody plants (trees, shrubs and evergreens) that we have ordered or already have in stock for this coming year.
