updated photo galleries

I've added two new photo albums.

I'm continuing the "Where's Waldo" theme by asking people I know to come out and photograph me as a way of encouraging other people to visit the occupation.  I figure that a known person provides a less threatening environment than a mass of unknown people.

Law enforcement (city police? county sheriff?) removed the illegal tents on Sunday morning around 1am without arrests.  There was 1 arrest on the previous Saturday of someone who supposedly had a restraining order to not be on the plaza.  The timing was unfortunate, since it happened while the tents were being placed on the property, so it had people riled without understanding the true situation.  Luckily, calmness prevailed and no further arrests were made necessary.

Here are some press photos of the same event.
