 Attorney launches cross-exam assault on mob informant The San Diego Union-Tribune
Vitale, who told the jurors in federal district court that he must tell the truth to win leniency for cooperating with prosecutors, admitted that he had been told he was hated.
On the witness stand was Salvatore Vitale, the prosecution's star informant and the underboss to the man he says was the all-powerful Bonanno family boss, Massino.
If Vitale's voice seemed to crack a little in the crowded Brooklyn courtroom, that was progress for Breitbart, who seemed yesterday to be softening up Vitale for a full legal assault that is expected to last much of the day today.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Mosaics
Sectile in marbles is found in Santa Sabina, Rome (425-450), in the baptistery of the cathedral, Ravenna; in San Vitale Ravenna (sixth century); at Parenzo (sixth century); in Sancta Sophia at Constantinople and at Thessalonica (sixth century); its use thus has been continuous ever since, and was an especial feature of the Renaissance.
In Florence the mosaics of the baptistery commenced in 1225 by Jacobus, a Franciscan, were continued at the end of the century by Andrea Tafi, Gaddo Gaddi, Apollonio, and afterwards by Agnolo Gaddi.
In the first half of the seventeenth century the painting and frescoes of the basilica began to be imitated in mosaic.

Chi entra nello stand barocco, cosi rigoglioso anche a Parma, solleva non senza comprensibile curiosita i drappeggi che panneggiano strane gioie di morte nei sontuosi stucchi di San Vitale, 1666-1669, composti da Luca e proseguiti da Leonardo e Domenico Reti (quest'ultimo fece del suo meglio a merlettare l'Oratorio dei Rossi).
Il fatto ci spinge a rammentare l'ultimo campione barocchetto, a metà del XVIII secolo (1737-1754),SanRocco dei gesuiti, proGettato dal bolognese Alfonso Torreggiani, che seguiva le orme di Carlo Francesco Dotti.

 Untitled Document
When our book says (p 333-334) that San Vitale was “unlike any other church in Italy,” but “like Justinian’s churches in Constantinople” it is forgetting San Lorenzo and supposing the controversial proposition that San Vitale was begun after Saints Sergius and Bacchus.
When we look to San Vitale, we see a great new monumental church begun in the time when the Ostrogoth court was modeled much on that of Justinian and the Eastern Roman Empire, and it seems this church to strongly represents a vision of church structure and symbolism much aligned with that in Constantinople.
There is some question about why Maximianus is taller and a bit in front of Justinian on the ground line, while the emperor is clearly in front of him and everyone else as indicated by the overlappings.

 Empress Theodora
Visual representations of the empress, as seen in the mosaic at San Vitale, identify her as a powerful woman at a time when women were considered weak.
I will show that public opinion of the empress was not negative by examining the portrait mosaic of Theodora in the Church of San Vitale in Ravenna, and how this image enforced her legitimacy as empress.
For instance, we can analyze the portrait mosaic of Theodora and her attendants, at the church of San Vitale in Ravenna.
