Want to advertise your show at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival? Have a life and death theme? Have skulls on your flyers? Then why not bring a coffin on to the High Street to help sell your show! Certain props really do make more out of a scene than those that just set the general ambience.

Family members of Melanie Hruby, Jessie Mowrer (left) and Diane Hruby (right) hug each other as Judge Christopher R. Rothgery reads the sentencing of Adam Grimes at the Lorain County Court of Common Pleas in Elyria, Ohio, on Wednesday, May 15, 2013.

The sons of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, sentenced to death for passing information on the atomic bomb to the Soviet Union, take part in a demonstration seeking clemency with their grandmother in front of the White House June 14, 1953—days before their parents’ execution.
From left to right: Robert Rosenberg, 6; Sophie Rosenberg; and Michael Rosenberg, 10.
The Rosenbergs and a third man, Morton Sobell, were tried together for passing classified information to the Soviet Union related to an atomic bomb.
Part of the prosecution strategy was to emphasize their ties to the Communist Party at a time when hysteria over communists in the U.S. was at an all time high during the Cold War and with U.S. troops battling in Korea against forces aided by both the Soviet Union and the People’s Republic of China.
The Rosenbergs were convicted, sentenced to death and then executed June 19, 1953 despite an international outcry for clemency. Sobell served 17 ½ years of a 30 year sentence.

An American-Iranian pastor has been sentenced to eight years in an Iranian prison for his Christian faith.
Judge Pir-Abassi, known as Tehran’s “hanging judge,” sentenced Saeed Abedini to eight years in Evin Prison for “Christian activities” in Iran, according to the Washington-based American Center for Law and Justice (ACLJ), which has been representing Abedini’s family and fighting for his release.
Jordan Sekulow, ACLJ’s Executive Director, says the whole case was a sham and hinged on the “evidence” of Abedini’s involvement more than ten years ago in Iran’s house church movement, “which under then-president [Mohammad] Khatami, were not perceived as a threat to Iran.” Despite Iranian law requiring a written verdict, Sekulow says none was given.
“Here’s the troubling reality,” Sekulow said. “A U.S. citizen who has been beaten and tortured since his imprisonment last fall, is now facing eight years in Evin Prison, one of the most brutal prisons in Iran.”
Sekulow is calling on the international community to demand Saeed’s release and says he’s especially troubled that the Obama administration has been silent about the issue. “The response from the State Department and the White House on behalf of this U.S. citizen being persecuted and beaten in Iran for his faith is absolutely abysmal,” Sekulow says. “It is shameful that our government has thus far basically abandoned this American citizen.”
Although spared the death sentence by a judge known for his harsh sentences, Pastor Saeed Abedini now faces a long stretch confinement in one of Iran’s most brutal prisons. Imprisoned and persecuted for his faith, his story is one that should move the hearts of both Christians and Jews and all freedom loving peoples. Pray for Pastor Abedini and his family as they walk through this trial of faith (James 1:1-3) and pray that the U.S. government will intercede on his behalf so that he once again might be free to return to America.

Du Chau, Artist Statement
My work medium is predominately porcelain. The pieces combine ceramics with wire elements. Many of the featured works evoke compelling memories of my childhood, an effect intended to create a quiet and contemplatively charged atmosphere within the gallery space. I use repetition to reference the cycle of human life and plants in nature. The purpose of the installation is to create a memorial that evokes meditative thoughts about respect and remembrance.
I am passionate about duplicating forms using mold making and slip casting techniques. This process reveals my fascination with clay replication with subtle variations. A constant permutation is the core of my creative process.

This layout documents the first complete sentence my youngest son every wrote. It is special because my son has developmental delays and it has been a struggle for him to learn to read and write. I was so surprised when he wrote this sentence. I immediately tore the paper out and saved it because I knew I would want to scrap it.

Je suis allé en 2009 à la tristement célèbre prison S-21 à Phnom Penh, Cambodge. C'était extrêmement triste. Selon moi, la sentence aurait dû être "Prison à vie" pour ce monstre.
I have visited in 2009 the sadly famous prison S-21 in Phnom Penh, Cambodia. It was extremely sad. In my opinion, the sentence should have been "Life imprisonment" for this monster.
Tuol Sleng - Le musée de Tuol Sleng est un ancien lycée (Tuol Svay Prey : la colline du manguier sauvage) situé à Phnom Penh, la capitale du Cambodge, qui a été transformé par les Khmers rouges en centre de détention, de torture et d'exécution entre 1975 et 1979. Le lycée avait alors comme nom secret prison de Sécurité 21 ou S-21. Sur les 17 000 à 20 000 prisonniers de Tuol Sleng, personne ne s'est échappé. À la libération du camp, il y avait sept survivants. De 1975 à 1979, quelques 17.000 personnes ont été incarcérées à Tuol Sleng (selon certaines estimations le nombre serait aussi élevé que 20.000, bien que le nombre réel est inconnu). À tout moment, il se trouvait dans la prison entre 1 000-1 500 prisonniers. Ils ont été torturés à plusieurs reprises et contraints de nommer des membres de leur famille et de leurs proches collaborateurs, qui ont été à leur tour arrêtés, torturés et tués. Dans les premiers mois de l’ouverture de S-21, la plupart des victimes étaient de l'ancien régime de Lon Nol et incluait des soldats, des responsables gouvernementaux, ainsi que des universitaires, médecins, enseignants, étudiants, ouvriers, moines, ingénieurs, etc. Ultérieurement, la paranoïa de la direction du parti se tourna contre ses propres rangs et des purges dans tout le pays ont amené des milliers de militants du parti et leur famille à Tuol Sleng et il furent par la suite assassinés. Parmi les personnes arrêtées figuraient même les plus élevés politiciens de la hiérarchie communiste comme Khoy Thun, Vorn Vet et Nim Hu. Bien que la raison officielle de leur arrestation fût «espionnage», ces hommes peuvent avoir été vu par le chef des Khmers rouges, Pol Pot, comme dirigeants potentiels d'un coup d'Etat contre lui. Les familles des prisonniers ont souvent été regroupées en masse pour y être interrogées et, plus tard, assassinées au centre d'extermination Choeung Ek (Champ d’extermination) .
Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum - The Tuol Sleng Genocide Museum is a museum in Phnom Penh, the capital of Cambodia. The site is a former high school which was used as the notorious Security Prison 21 (S-21) by the Khmer Rouge regime from its rise to power in 1975 to its fall in 1979. Tuol Sleng means "Hill of the Poisonous Trees" or "Strychnine Hill". On the 17 000 to 20 000 prisonners of Tuol Sleng, no one has ever escaped. At the liberation, there were only 7 survivors. From 1975 to 1979, an estimated 17,000 people were imprisoned at Tuol Sleng (some estimates suggest a number as high as 20,000, although the real number is unknown). At any one time, the prison held between 1,000-1,500 prisoners. They were repeatedly tortured and coerced into naming family members and close associates, who were in turn arrested, tortured and killed. In the early months of S-21's existence, most of the victims were from the previous Lon Nol regime and included soldiers, government officials, as well as academics, doctors, teachers, students, factory workers, monks, engineers, etc. Later, the party leadership's paranoia turned on its own ranks and purges throughout the country saw thousands of party activists and their families brought to Tuol Sleng and murdered. Those arrested included some of the highest ranking communist politicians such as Khoy Thoun, Vorn Vet and Hu Nim. Although the official reason for their arrest was "espionage", these men may have been viewed by Khmer Rouge leader Pol Pot as potential leaders of a coup against him. Prisoners' families were often brought en masse to be interrogated and later murdered at the Choeung Ek extermination center (Killing fields).
