i'm sonja hinrichsen, and i'm a visual artist. snow drawings actually started out of play.t an artist's residency in colorado, and i had snowshoes because i wanted to hike in the mountains. i found those really big, pristine fields of snow, and i just had to do something with them. ♪ so i started walking these patterns, and it became interesting to me when i took out my camera and realized that the shadow that gets cast into the imprint makes the pattern. if there is no sun, there's no pattern. in 2009, there was this pilot who just offered that he could take me up so i could take photographs. it was pretty amazing because i had no idea how it would look from the top. i was in that airplane. i was like "wow!" i can't believe this." i feel like spirals are sort of inherent in us and in nature. our galaxy is a spiral. our fingerprint is sort of a spiral. so i just feel like it's a form that we all understand. it's very meditative, walking these patterns, basically having the landscape sort of evolve around me. and that triggered the idea that this would be something to share

the last four justices on the supreme court nominated by president obama , sonja soto mayor were nominated by george w. bush, john roberts as well as justice alito, all received 60 votes during the course of their consideration. that is not as the senator from texas alluded, rightly in the wall per se but it is written that until yesterday, in the rules of the senate, you needed 60 votes to overcome the possibility of a filibuster and to file cloture. that rule change yesterday to a majority. that's an unfortunate occurrence. a lifetime appointment to the highest court in the land should be more than just a ce bare majority vote as far as i'm concerned. historically with very few exceptions, that has been the case . that is not the case here. we found yesterday a change in the rules which was under the power of the majority to do. a change in rules which lowered the standard for this judge for the first time officially in at least a century to a mere majority vote. that's what he received, that's what brings his nomination to the floor today to be considered for the supreme court. te at th
