The solemn procession of the articles of impeachment from the House of Representatives to the Senate began on Wednesday. Chief Justice John Roberts administered the oath of impeachment to the senators and then each came down to the front to sign the oath book, a legal and Constitutional statement that they would each "...do impartial justice according to the Constitution and laws..."
Who are they kidding? Many senators have already stated they've already made up their minds, including Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell and South Carolina Senator Lindsey Graham. Others have fended impartiality, but have made ludicrous statements that suggest otherwise, like Maine Senator Susan Collins.
When asked about new evidence provided by Lev Parnas, she asked: "I wonder why the House did not put that into the record, and it's only now being revealed." When she was told the House only received the information last week, she replied: "Well, doesn't that suggest that the House did an incomplete job then?"
If the Senator is confused, then she should be certain of her facts before stating them publicly. But, she has waffled before, stating one opinion, only to renege later. In fact, Parnas is under federal indictment for violating campaign finance laws. The House did subpoena Parnas the day after he was arrested in October 2019. However, a federal judge granted him permission to testify only last week.
Despite the mounting facts, it's doubtful the Senate will vote to remove Trump from office. This is a highly partisan trial (Arizona Republican Senator Martha McSally called CNN reporter Manu Raju a "liberal hack" when he asked her on live TV whether she'd be voting to admit this new evidence). Politics, political loyalties, and many senators' fears of losing their jobs will make this trial a sham.
It's party and personal ambition over the Constitution and our country.

After reading hundreds of articles and studying hundreds of other peoples light painted images, I went to bed last night and dreamed about light painting! If that isn't committed, I don't know what is... In my dream I was able to manipulate the light to do what I wanted it to do by either speeding up or slowing down, focusing the light or blanketing and when I woke up I suddenly realised what I had to do. I couldn't wait to get out this evening to test the theory, especially after finally receiving the new Canon 10-22mm in the post, it's a cracking lens; I've not had much chance to play with it yet but I love it already. Anyway, this is the result of my epiphany following that dream. I took around 15-20 shots to get the lighting that I needed and then spent around an hour cobbling each of the frames together in photoshop to get the result I have been trying to get for a very long time now. If I am critical, it's still not perfect, but I feel that I have at least crossed a bridge and it's just a matter of perfecting the technique now, oh and finding better locations, this road sucked but at least it was dark I guess!

Article courtesy of DUSK...here are some excerpts from other articles(ranging from 1992-1995) i found while browsing the U-T online archive
===============================================
The "graffiti belt" -- places where graffiti vandals hit most frequently -- runs roughly along Interstate 5 from Balboa Avenue to the border, along State Route 94 from I-5 to Lemon Grove, and along Interstate 8 from Mission Valley to El Cajon.
The Lemon Grove Avenue sign on State Route 94 was being hit by graffiti artists so much that Caltrans workers encircled the base of the sign with barbed wire.
----------------------------
Police define tagging as "recreational vandalism." Although many taggers collect in social cliques called "crews," they're less concerned about affiliation and geographic areas than gangs are. Crew affiliation is not as permanent as gang membership.
Taggers have their own language. Often after a party, taggers go on "bombing runs," in which they blitz the entire city with their tags in order to be known as "all-city." A "piece" is a really nice mural; a "piercer" does really good pieces, [James Coleman] said. A "toy" is a derogatory term for a beginner. "Suckers" are the residents who "buff" the graffiti (paint over it).
Styles sometimes overlap. Generally, though, tagger signatures are fashioned in wide, feathering bands, Coleman said. He said that bubble letters reflect the second generation of tagging graffiti, and murals are the third generation.
-----------------------
No good estimate exists of the amount of monetary damage done by taggers -- graffiti vandals usually in their teens or pre-teens. Caltrans says it spends $20,000 a month in San Diego employing and equipping full-time crews to clean the graffiti from freeway signs. But tagging is costly in other ways, in declining property values and increased public unease and fear.
Another important barrier to enforcement, according to [Joe Wood], is the California penal code. In order to qualify as a felony, vandalism must result in over $5,000 damage; below that, the crime is a misdemeanor. In the case of misdemeanors, in order for police to make an arrest, the crime must be committed in the presence of the arresting officer. Unfortunately, the fact that the tagger's name is on the wall doesn't prove anything. A freeway sign may contain several names placed there by one tagger. Also, some taggers plagiarize or "bite" other taggers' code names, especially the names of more notorious taggers. So SDPD is considering a number of innovative investigation techniques, among them, handwriting analysis to link tags with individual taggers, and charging several taggers with conspiracy to commit a misdemeanor; the conspiracy itself becomes a felony.
"W e briefly considered greasing the poles, but that was considered too messy," says James Larson, Caltrans community affairs director. (To climb freeway sign poles, some taggers bind their wrists and ankles in duct tape, sticky side outward.) "We've also tried putting up rat guards. You know, like the metal funnels used years ago to keep rats from climbing up the ropes to ships." But taggers used ladders to climb over the rat guards.
-------------------
Sgt. Joe Wood, 38, knows what the hieroglyphics along the freeways mean and he knows about the taggers who make them. "Actually, taggers don't like to be called taggers," says Wood, as he wheels his beat-up Mustang south on Interstate 5. "They like to call themselves `writers.' "
Wood says police used to prefer downplaying the details of tagging, and he is still ambivalent about saying anything that could glorify taggers, but he figures that the more the public knows about tagging, the more it will support political solutions. "Besides," he says, "anything I can tell you, the taggers already know."
(At a Burger King where Wood stops to eat, I look at the mirrored wall behind him and see a small crew insignia scratched into the glass.) Caltrans has begun to wrap razor wire around highway sign poles; in Los Angeles, taggers have circumvented this by using ropes -- so Caltrans is now wrapping poles to prevent roping as well.
------------------------------------
Although taggers hit myriad buildings, billboards and road signs, most pass through [Joseph Gaspard] and [Matthew O'Deane]'s jurisdiction because the kids get around by bus.
The transit cops sometimes also work on foot, watching for boys vandalizing bus benches and signs. They have trailed taggers who were painting nearly everything in sight, waiting for them to tag transit property.
An hour of observation doesn't net any arrests for Gaspard and O'Deane. So they head for Park Boulevard, where two other transit cops have caught a boy etching three letters into a bus window.
-------------
[Michael Cochran] said the back windows of the buses are so etched with gang symbols, initials and other graffiti that you can't see out of them, adding that even the new buses have been marred with graffiti from the back halfway to the front.
-------------
Mayor Susan Golding and representatives of four retail chain stores announced yesterday that the stores will lock up spray paint and other tools of graffiti vandals.
Golding was joined at the event by 8th District Councilman Juan Vargas, who announced a plan for San Diego similar to those in school districts and cities statewide that punish the parents of graffiti vandals along with the culprits themselves.
Kmart, Target, Pep Boys and Home Depot stores have agreed to keep aerosol paint cans, etching tools and marking pens locked up in their stores to prevent shoplifting of the items, Golding said.
=====================
Thirty-seven people were arrested this week after San Diego police and sheriff's deputies posed as Hollywood producers in an elaborate, six-month sting operation to catch taggers, the common name for graffiti vandals. Six others are being sought.
Letting their egos take the lead, the taggers unwittingly took the "producers" on a graffiti tour of the county, proudly pointing out their artwork on walls and freeways, police said. The admissions were captured on videotape.
The answers will be the primary evidence used against the taggers, said Deputy District Attorney David Williams. While searching the homes of taggers, investigators even found photo albums showcasing the graffiti, as well as videotapes of the taggers in action.
--------------
"They got 14- and 15-year-old kids, and some people who hadn't tagged in two or three years," says Chino, an aerosol artist (yes, galleries throughout the world recognize the technique). He was targeted but resisted the blandishments of Star Productions over a three-day "recruitment" by phone and at Star Productions' "office" on G Street.
-----------------
"They had row on row of paint cans against the wall, to use in the office there." Chino says he refused to paint in the storefront for the camera. "They offered to take me out in the van." He refused to go.
Imperial Beach businessman Jeff Franz, who supports the aerosol painters -- opposed to taggers -- by giving them his walls and a studio, says the six-month sting actually increased freeway tagging.
------------
Greg] and four of his friends responded to the casting calls, and he soon found himself spraying graffiti under a bridge at the intersection of Interstate 805 and state Route 54 in Chula Vista.
San Diego police Sgt. Joe Wood denied that the sting involved entrapment. Wood said the department received guidance from the District Attorney's Office every step of the way.
Wood agreed that many of the people arrested in the sting have artistic talent, but he said most graffiti vandals start out as taggers when they are younger and cause thousands of dollars worth of damage. In addition, he said all the arrests made involve illegal graffiti.

Why winter flowering wattles bloom when so much else is dormant is something of a mystery. Acacia expert Terry Tame believes it may be partly due to the fact that wattles are none too choosy when it comes to who pollinates them.
Wattles are opportunistic pollinators - making the most of pretty much any beetle, wasp or bee which lands on them to do the job of spreading their genes around. Unlike many other plants, most wattles do not rely on a specific type of insect or bird for pollination. Instead, insects land on the blossom and become covered with pollen, carrying it from one plant to the next. Birds which forage for these insects also become incidental pollen carriers in the process.
Watching bees going bezerk as they frantically jostle to get among a blossom-laden wattle branch, you'd think these trees produce the most seductive nectar in the world. But although wattles do often have an amazingly strong fragrance, the flowers don't usually carry nectar. The pollinators are attracted instead by the pollen itself, a rich source of protein. Mites and thrips feed on the flowers, and beetles and wasps prey on these insects. All of these creatures become inadvertent pollinators.
Interestingly, although no nectar is produced, wattles do make a sweet sticky substance in structures called nectaries or phyllode glands on their leaves. Tiny amounts of this sweet substance are produced around the time of flowering, giving wattles their characteristic 'sticky' feel to the touch. The nectaries are very popular with honeyeaters, which may accidentally collect pollen on their bodies as they move in to take the nectar or the insects associated with it.
There's another advantage to flowering early: sneaking in an early batch of seeds. Seeds take about two months to mature. The seeds of winter flowering plants are mature by late spring. This way, the young germinating plants have less competition from other seedlings, and also benefit from any moisture remaining in the ground from the cooler weather.

A fine line up of the genuine articles and a 'wannabe' are seen here, on 26/05/2019, at The Globe Arena, the home of Morecambe FC, when attending the RVPT Rally & Running Day, which like the Stagecoach Cumbria & North Lancs. Morecambe depot Open & Running Day, on the previous day, was celebrating the centenary of Ribble Motor Services. Just visible on the far left is 1729, PCK370, a full-fronted Metro-Cammell bodied Leyland Titan PD3/5, new in 06/1961. These were nicknamed 'Tanks'. Second from left is 1686, NRN586, a Metro-Cammell bodied Leyland Atlantean PDR1/1, new in 10/1960. In the centre is 452, FCK884, a Saro bodied Leyland Tiger Cub PSUC1/1, new in 03/1954. Second from right is 1274, RRN423, a Weymann bodied Leyland Atlantean PDR1/1, new in 05/1962. Ribble added twenty of these to its fleet. Not as well appointed as the similar 'Gay Hostess' that worked the Lancashire - London services pounding up and down the M1 and M6 motorway, these vehicles were bought for use on Ribble's network of limited stop and express services across the North-West. They replaced a fleet of early post-war Leyland Titans that were christened "White Ladies" and the Atlanteans acquired the same name. I must admit, I was always under the assumption that these were fitted with a toilet as the 'Gay Hostess' were, however, it is only a luggage compartment behind the white windows at the rear of the lower saloon. It has been pleasantly restored over the last three years or so and finally, nearest the camera is the 'wannabe'. Masquerading as a Scout, Preston, vehicle, it is in fact former Rawtenstall Corporation 18, RTC822, an all-Leyland Titan PD2/12, new in 10/1953. Scout Motor Services sold out to Ribble in 1961 but remained as a subsidiary until 10/1968 when Ribble became part of the National Bus Company with Scout's licenses and vehicles passing to Ribble and Standerwick, another Ribble subsidiary. © Peter Steel 2019.
