Memorial to ten men executed and buried in Mountjoy Prison, Dublin, by the British during the War of Independence in 1920/1921. The bodies were exhumed and reburied 80 years later.
Extract from speech by Taoiseach on the reinterrment.
These 10 young men were executed during the War of Independence. The country was under tremendous pressure at the time. There was a united effort. Meanwhile, elected by the people, Dáil Éireann was developing, in spite of a war going on. Democracy was being put to work. Independent civic institutions, including the Dáil courts, were beginning to function. Before their deaths, the ten had seen the light of freedom. They understood that Ireland would be free and independent.
The 10 men were Kevin Barry, a UCD medical student of 18, with roots in County Carlow; Thomas Whelan from Clifden; Patrick Moran from Roscommon; Patrick Doyle, Bernard Ryan, Frank Flood and Thomas Bryan all from Dublin; Thomas Traynor of Tullow; and Edmond Foley and Patrick Maher, from Galbally, County Limerick.
It is no wonder to the people of Ireland then that this day has come. Although we have difficulties of our own time, there is no fair person in this country but thinks that it is good that we bury these men with State honours here today, and indeed that it is time we did so.
The Irish State today is discharging a debt of honour that stretches back 80 years. Here in Glasnevin stand the memorials to Irish patriots of the past two centuries, statesmen, soldiers, all those who contributed in many different ways to the onward march of a nation.
Excellently executed. Overpowering pesto, however, the cauliflower puree was a nice addition. very pleasant
My photo executes the mission of a subject that is not normally colorful but is now. the photo has symmetrical balance and rhythm created by the decaying siding. I was driving through Sharpsville and saw this destroyed house covered in moss. I stopped and took a picture straight on so that is would be symmetrical. I picked an interesting subject that allowed for easy editing. If I would change something I would have broken the branch off the left side so that it doesn't block the window.

In the early hours of the morning (Tuesday 5 December), Operation Vulcan executed a warrant as part of their ongoing commitment to tackle the prescription drug trade in Cheetham Hill.
A 34-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of importing class C drugs, conspiracy to supply class C drugs and knowingly evading prohibition of importing a controlled drug.
Over the last few months, partners at Border Force have intercepted several packages destined for addresses in Greater Manchester, consisting of tens of thousands of illicit tablets.
A meticulous investigation by detectives in Operation Vulcan has resulted in this morning’s raids.
Detective Sergeant Matt Donnelly, one of Operation Vulcan’s specialist officers said: “A lot of work with partners continues to go on behind the scenes, and collaboration with Border Force has been vital to the success of Operation Vulcan. They have played a key role in identifying illegal packages coming into the UK destined for Cheetham Hill, whether that’s counterfeit clothes or illicit prescription medication, and officers from our team have worked tirelessly to trace these items, resulting in several arrests and charges.
“Today’s operation is a really positive step forward to not only take action against those responsible for these crimes, but to also help get control of an illegal drug market that has such a negative impact on our communities.
“The illegal supply of any drug carries so much danger for those purchasing and using them as there is no way of knowing where it has come from or how it’s been produced. Operation Vulcan and partners will continue to gather intelligence and crackdown on markets like this which inevitably lead to the deterioration of neighbourhoods and increased anti-social behaviour and exploitation.”

Today (Friday 10 November), Operation Vulcan executed warrants at premises on Bury New Road, shutting down and seizing half a million of pounds worth of counterfeit items.
Police warnings seem to have fallen on deaf ears for some counterfeit operations in the area. Attempts to re-open and profit from the Christmas sales however continue to be detected and swiftly shut down.
Thanks to intelligence from the Cheetham Hill Neighbourhood Team (who remain in the area with the Vulcan team and conduct daily patrols in the community), Operation Vulcan were able to execute these warrants just days after witnessing customers walking down Bury New Road with bags of fake goods.
Detective Sergeant Matt Donnelly, one of Operation Vulcan’s specialist officers, said: “These results today demonstrate just how important it is that Operation Vulcan remain in the area. The criminals operating here are so brazen, the minute they think they spot an opening, they’re back up and running as though it’s business as usual. We’re here to show them that this isn’t the case, and we will not stop until these illegitimate shops are eradicated and those responsible are locked up.
“I hope this is a warning that no matter how many times you try to reopen, we will continue to seize your belongings and profits, making sure none of this money can make its way back into the criminal market.
Councillor Luthfur Rahman, Deputy Leader of Manchester City Council said: "Over the past 12 months we have achieved a great deal through Operation Vulcan. Through our partnership with GMP gangs have been run out of Cheetham Hill and people have been allowed to feel safe in their own neighbourhoods.
"But the work will go on. We know these gangs are tenacious and that criminals will always find ways to circumvent the law. The Council's Trading Standards will remain vigilant throughout the Christmas period to make sure that dangerous or harmful goods do not make their way in the hands of the public."

The Courthouse of Brussels - Belgium
Everything is done to impress, both inside and out. It's a symbolic place with a long history, built on the (rather aptly named) “Mont des Potences”, meaning Gallows Hill, where condemned men were executed in the Middle Ages. Legend has it that in the 16th century, the famous doctor Vesalius went there at night to steal corpses so that he could study the human body…
A little history
In March 1860 (under Leopold I), the Belgian government organized an international competition for the construction of a new courthouse in Brussels. The jury did not select any of the projects presented and the project was instead entrusted to the architect of the City of Brussels (who was on the jury!).
Joseph Poelaert's project was colossal: to synthesize the history of humanity in the architecture of a single building.
The construction, which finally began in October 1866, took 17 years. It led to the sacrificing of part of the Marolles, the working-class district in the lower part of the city, through expropriations at derisory prices, evictions and demolitions. The inauguration (under Leopold II) was held on 15 October 1883, without the architect of this colossus having seen his work completed. Exhausted and driven mad, he died four years before the work was completed.
The “Skieven architek” and “The Great Inkwell”…
The monument left no one indifferent. It was adored by some and mocked by others. Poelaert was granted tremendous artistic and financial freedom throughout the project, which led to popular, political and cultural discontent. A number of charming expressions were coined, such as 'Rotten' and 'Skieven architek' (twisted architect). Victor Horta described the building as "... a crushing mass crowned by a cheese bell". Victor Hugo christened it "The Great Inkwell".
The biggest Palace of Justice in the world…
Built in an eclectic style of Greco-Roman inspiration and larger than Saint Peter's Basilica in Rome, it is (still to this day) the largest palace of justice in the world:
* a ground surface of 26,006 m2. The total net area reaches +/- 81.000 m²
* a dome that reaches a height of 100 meters and weighs 24,000 tons
* a colossal vestibule (the « salle des pas perdus »)
* over 250 rooms, including 27 impressive courtrooms…
The plan is organized around the central void of the salle des pas perdus with its height of one hundred meters under the central dome, space for the distribution of circulations organized to give access to the audience rooms on the ground floor and upper floors according to a provision which was intended to be rational according to the requirements of the time.

I'm currently reading the biography of Edith Cavell by Diana Souhami (Quercus 2010).
Not only finding out a lot more about the woman herself, but also something about the life of a young middle class woman in the late 19th century, and the development of the nursing profession into the early years of the 20th century. Very interesting.

Capone was shot and killed on Sept 27,2011 while being let out of his own house by a lake elsinore detective when he illegally kicked oipen our front door. Approx. 25-30 ft away in our yard not one growl, bark and never even acknowledging the officers that stood on our front porch.Capone was facing perpindicular to the officers, nHe was shot and killed unjustly. My husband had a bullet hit his foot leaving a bullet hole in his boot grazing his foot. There was NO REASON for this ! If either of our dogs wanted to charge and attack like they "claimed" they had every opportunity when the front door was kicked open with the two officers standing on our front porch. MY husband and I both were arrested on BOGUS charges to justify what they did.

This morning (Thursday 15 January 2026), officers executed an arrest warrant at an address on Brooklands Avenue, Chadderton, resulting in three arrests.
A 26-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of possession with intent to supply Class A, B, and C drugs, as well as possession of offensive weapons. A man aged 62, and a woman aged 61, were also arrested on suspicion of being concerned in the supply of drugs.
The warrant was the culmination of a thorough investigation by Chadderton’s Neighbourhood Team, who remain committed to tackling drug supply and misuse across the borough.
Acting on intelligence provided by the local community, officers identified the address as a suspected hub for drug activity. Police Sergeant Tom Layton and PC Aleks Gornisiewicz led the investigation, securing sufficient evidence to obtain today’s warrant.
Upon entry, officers located a man in an attic bedroom. Officers were able to seize drugs located in the bedroom.
Inside the property, officers discovered a variety of Class A, B, and C drugs, including suspected cocaine, nitrous oxide, and cannabis. Several bladed weapons—such as axes, machetes, and zombie knives were also seized, along with multiple mobile phones and luxury items.
The three suspects currently remain in custody for further questioning and all seized drugs will be transported to our labs for testing.
PS Tom Layton from the Chadderton Neighbourhood team said: "Today’s warrant was a great success, made possible thanks to vital intelligence from our community.
“I want residents to know that we are here to listen and act on your concerns. As a Neighbourhood Sergeant, my priority is keeping our community safe.
“Greater Manchester Police is relentless in tackling the supply and use of drugs across the force, and I am deeply committed to that mission here in Oldham.
“We have zero tolerance for offensive weapons and removing them from our streets remains an absolute priority.
“I urge anyone with information about criminal activity to come forward. Today’s warrant demonstrates just how crucial community intelligence is and how we act on it to protect you."

U.S. Army cavalry troopers execute a mounted pistol charge during field maneuvers at Fort Riley, Kansas, circa 1936. Wearing khaki summer uniforms, leather Sam Browne belts, and armed with Colt M1911 pistols, the horsemen of the Cavalry School demonstrate the precision and discipline of interwar mounted tactics—among the last years of traditional horse cavalry training before the branch’s mechanization on the eve of World War II.
The Jubilee Cross
Designed by Jack Penton and executed by Hector Moore of Brandeston.
The cross is hollow, made of copper strips plated with silver, surmounted by the Star of Bethlehem. The crown and arrows are a tribute to St Edmund. The coats of arms are those of the Diocese. The staff is ebony inlaid with silver fillets.
A church has stood on the site of the cathedral since at least 1065, when St Denis's Church was built within the precincts of Bury St Edmunds Abbey. In the early 12th century the Abbot, Anselm, had wanted to make a pilgrimage along the Way of St James to Santiago de Compostela. He was unsuccessful and instead rebuilt St Denis's and dedicated the new church to Saint James, which served as the parish church for the north side of Bury St Edmunds. Anselm was also responsible for building the abbey gate tower, known today as the Norman Tower, alongside St James's, which also served as the church's belfry and it continues in this function to the present day. The church is located about 200 yards from St Mary's Church, which is of a similar size.
This church was largely rebuilt, starting in 1503, in the Perpendicular style by John Wastell, a master mason who also worked on King's College, Cambridge. Further alterations to the building were undertaken in the 18th and 19th centuries, notably a new chancel and a hammerbeam roof by George Gilbert Scott. When the Diocese of St Edmundsbury and Ipswich was created in 1914, St James's Church was made the cathedral. In 1959 Benjamin Britten wrote the Fanfare for St Edmundsbury for a "Pageant of Magna Carta" held in the cathedral grounds.
From 1959 onwards there was renewed building work designed to transform the former parish church into a cathedral building. Between 1959 and 1970, the Victorian chancel was demolished and replaced with a new quire, a cloister was added on the west side; also transepts, a Lady chapel and a side chapel dedicated to St Edmund were built. The cathedral architect from 1943 to 1988 was Stephen Dykes Bower and he left £2 million for the completion of the cathedral. In the cathedral grounds a new choir school and visitor's centre, which were opened in 1990, were built by Dykes Bower's successor, Alan Rome. Work started on a Gothic revival style tower in 2000; funded by the Millennium Commission, the Stephen Dykes Bower Trust and others, the Millennium Tower was designed by Hugh Mathew, an associate of Dykes Bower. The 150 foot (46 metre) structure was built from 600,000 bricks and faced with Barnack and Clipsham stone. Its completion was officially celebrated on 22 July 2005. Further additions are the Chapel of the Transfiguration and the East Cloister, both completed in 2009, and the Crypt Treasury in 2012.
La fontaine de l’Encelade fut exécutée en plomb par Gaspard Marsy entre 1675 et 1677. Le sujet en est emprunté à l’histoire de la chute des Titans, ensevelis sous les rochers de l’Olympe par les dieux qu’ils avaient voulu détrôner. Le sculpteur a représenté le géant Encelade à demi englouti sous un amoncèlement rocheux, luttant contre la mort et dont la souffrance se traduit par le puissant jet qui s’échappe de sa bouche, comme un cri. Le dessin du bosquet, dont le pourtour est scandé par des pavillons de treillage reliés par des berceaux, a été totalement modifié en 1706 par Jules Hardouin-Mansart qui transforme cet espace fermé en carrefour ouvert en supprimant les treillages, les petits bassins et la dénivellation d’origine. Un programme de restauration mené de 1992 à 1998 a permis de restituer à ce bosquet son aspect d’origine. (Source : les Bosquets - château de Versailles)
The Enceladus Fountain was made of lead by Gaspard Marsy between 1675 and 1677, and was inspired by the legend of the fall of the Giants in Greek and Roman mythology. Punished for trying to climb Mount Olympus to dethrone the gods, they were buried under a heap of rocks, as illustrated here by the figure of Enceladus, whose suffering is conveyed by the powerful water jet gushing out of his mouth like a cry of pain.

Norway's Resistance Museum
Norway's Resistance Museum is housed in an old protected building in Akershus Castle Oslo, adjoining the memorial at the spot where Norwegian patriots were executed by the Germans during the second world war.
Norway's Resistance Museum was established in 1966 as an independent foundation for the purpose of «Contributing to the presentation of a true and authentic picture of the occupation by means of objects, pictures, printed matter, etc., collected preserved and exhibited with a view to giving the young people of today and coming generations a true to life impression of the evil represented by occupation and foreign rule, in this way helping to strengthen the sense of unity and defence of our national liberties».
The Museum was opened to the public in May 1970 by HRH Crown Prince Harald celebrating the 25th anniversary of liberation. The initiative to the Museum and in fact the creators of the institution were a group of persons who had been actively engaged in the resistance. Overall architectural planning was entrusted to Otto Torgersen who with key personnel from various branches of the underground forces produced a chronological gallery through the period from the prelude in the 1930's onwards to liberation in 1945.
