At the 2018 Women's March hundreds of march participants joined Backbone Campaign to say it's high time we "Impeach the Predator-In-Chief!"
The fleet of Backbone volunteers mobilized the impressive larger than life cartoon by artist Bill Jarcho. To depict the assault on our liberties, the cartoon features a 13 foot-tall Lady Liberty slapping Trump away when he tries to grope her.
The accompanying 20 foot banner demands we "Indict and Impeach, The Predator-In-Chief!"
The imagery gave march participants outraged by Trump and his cronies a much needed cathartic release and builds momentum to impeach the Groper-In-Chief

The Azazel. Backbone of the 3vil fleet, dealing death and destruction wherever it goes. Seen here undergoing deep space trials before being fitted with it's final weapons loadout.
Whilst in the valley bottom the forests cover and hide the underlying form of the landscape on the summits and valley ridges the landscape is laid bare to see. This ride feature is very defined appearing as if the backbone of the landscape.
On Infantry Day, President Volodymyr Zelenskyy met with infantrymen, relatives of fallen Heroes and unit commanders, and presented state awards, battle flags and honorary awards.
The Head of State emphasized that infantrymen are the backbone of our army, the most numerous and determinative component of the Defense Forces of Ukraine, the foundation of the Armed Forces.
“Our Ukrainian control is precisely where our infantry positions and the strength of our infantry troops – infantry, motorized infantry, mechanized, assault, mountain assault, and jaeger military units – are,” Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
On behalf of all Ukrainians, the President thanked the infantry warriors for their strength, courage and resilience. He emphasized: we are all proud of the Ukrainian infantry.
"I thank all our warriors for the fact that Ukraine has managed to withstand this war and retains the ability to achieve its goals. And every Ukrainian – all our people – must always remember what our warriors are going through, how much pain and loss they are facing," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
The memory of the fallen defenders was honored with a moment of silence.
The Head of State handed the Order of the Golden Star to the families of the fallen Heroes of Ukraine. The following warriors were awarded the highest state award:
Junior Sergeant Anton Kovalenko. In June 2023, the unit under his leadership cleared a platoon stronghold and took up a perimeter defense. Thanks to a radio station he found on the spot, he intercepted information about the plans and movements of the Russian occupiers and transmitted their coordinates. Anton Kovalenko was killed at a firing position. More than 30 dead Russian soldiers were found in front of it.
Soldier Danylo Podybailo. He was a senior pilot of a UAV crew. His crew detected five self-propelled howitzers, two MT-12 Rapira anti-tank guns, a tripod-mounted automatic grenade launcher and two mortars. After adjusting the artillery fire, everything was destroyed. Danylo Podybailo was killed on June 1 last year as a shell directly hit his dugout.
Three warriors were awarded the Presidential Cross of Military Merit:
Captain Roman Yeskov. During the battle, he pulled out a wounded brother-in-arms, provided assistance and organized evacuation. In October last year, the personnel under his leadership repelled enemy attacks, retained our positions, killed about 13 Russian soldiers and wounded 10 more.
Major Valeriy Lobov. In June last year, he personally led the company's personnel in an assault. He was wounded, but despite this, he organized the evacuation of one part of the unit and led the other to the enemy positions. After that, he lost consciousness. Valeriy Lobov was evacuated from the battlefield in serious condition. Two months later, he continued to perform combat missions near Robotyne, Zaporizhzhia region.
Junior Sergeant Pavlo Svyrydiuk. He repeatedly covered the withdrawal of his brothers-in-arms from positions that were densely attacked by the Russian occupiers. This allowed them to regroup, take up defense in more favorable positions and stop the enemy. Using a drone, he detected enemy subversive reconnaissance groups and destroyed them with grenades.
The President also presented one serviceman with the Order of Bohdan Khmelnytsky of the second class, and three with the Order of Bohdan Khmelnytsky of the second class.
Three warriors received the Order "For Courage" of the second class, and five received the Order "For Courage" of the third class.
The Head of State presented battle flags to the 22nd, 31st, 32nd and 65th separate mechanized brigades.
The 47th and 66th separate mechanized brigades were awarded the honorary award "For Courage and Bravery."
This is one of my favorite pictures, taken at Backbone State Park in northeast Iowa. We used to have family reunions there.

An afternoon shot of an interesting group of rocks along the edge of bisti badlands. The rocks reminded me of the backbone of some prehistoric creature... or maybe I was just out in the sun little too long.

Shot this back on March 10th of this year, not long after I got my 350D. I really like how it came out, even though the foreground is a little dark. Clearly night is falling and shadows have descended on the land, but the distant Rocky Mountains are still clearly visible in the fading silver light of the setting sun.
The title of this shot - "Earth's Backbone" - is the name the Blackfoot people called the Rocky Mountains, and this shot is looking north towards the Blackfeet Reservation.

Sacral (pelvic) and lumbar (lower back) vertebrae from Xena, the most complete mammoth found at Diamond Valley. She was an adolescent when she died, and her size is impressive for her size: 13 feet at the shoulder! We know she was immature because the ends of her leg bones were had not yet fused.

Yao rice terraces at Dazhai village, two hours north of Guilin. Absolutely breathtaking. The Zhuang may be the most prevalent ethnic minority in Guangxi (hence Guangxi Zhuang Autonomous Region) but there are several others in Guangxi, including the Red Yao.
Carlton Scroop radio mast was once part of 'Backbone', a series of microwave radio towers stretching form the Chilterns to Scotland that would have provided a communications link during a national emergency such as a nuclear attack against the United Kingdom.
I’m naturally very manja one hor. I love it when the husb kisses and hugs. It feels good tau sebab memang physical touch (yang halal ye) has proven to produce happy hormones. It’s good because Hasbi pun terikut-ikut peluk and cium me when he sees his father doing that. Gentleness in the family is a form of rahmah. Sometimes, kids throw tantrums because there is a lack of touch from either mummy/daddy. I think I saw a poster online saying that a hug can eliminate an angry flame in a child. Everyday mesti peluk cium. For our household, it’s something that kita mesti and wajib buat especially since our kids are growing up. ❤️
