The Bridge of Sighs.

 

From the splendor of council halls, you plunge into the dungeons.

 

Where CASANOVA conceived and planned her daring escape, cells were unhealthy.

 

It has this name because of the sighs of the prisoners, who took one last look at freedom before torture or execution. So says the legend.

The special sauce of Second Life is that it helps us to feel things. Sometimes it is the tender touch of another human even when they are thousands of miles away. Other times it is the beauty of a song or a work of art that allows us to see into the hearts and minds of artists. Without the pathway to our sometimes unreachable emotions, SL would just be another video game.

 

Thankfully we have sims like this one to help us listen to the stories in the wind.

 

Thank you ARCħEŦҰPE11. I can't keep up with your latest name but I will always find a way to keep up with your art. This one poked at one of the hidden places in my heart I keep under lock and key.

ENG: The way from the atrium to the back exit and the prison of the district court in Berlin's Tiergarten.

 

The criminal court Moabit in the neo-baroque Still from 1906 in the Turmstraße is the largest contiguous court complex in criminal cases in Europe and accommodates beside the district court Tiergarten, the criminal and execution chambers of the regional court Berlin also the public prosecutor's office Berlin. The district attorney's office is housed in an annex. Far more than 1,500 people work in the criminal court.

 

The Moabit Criminal Court is one of the most important buildings of the Wilhelminian era in terms of architectural history. With its castle-like dimensions, impressive design and magnificent staircase, the courthouse caused a sensation.

 

The complex of the listed Criminal Court is supplemented to the east by the star-shaped remand prison, which was built in 1875 and is thus the oldest part of the entire complex. This is connected with secret passages to the courtrooms.

 

Even more interesting information on the district court can be found here on the German page. www.berlin.de/gerichte/amtsgericht-tiergarten/das-gericht

  

GER: Der Weg vom Atrium zum Hinterausgang und der Strafanstalt des Amtsgerichts im Berliner Tiergarten.

 

Das Kriminalgericht Moabit im neobarocken Still von 1906 in der Turmstraße ist der größte zusammenhängende Gerichtskomplex in Strafsachen in Europa und beherbergt neben dem Amtsgericht Tiergarten, den Straf- und Strafvollstreckungskammern des Landgerichts Berlin auch die Staatsanwaltschaft Berlin. Die Amtsanwaltschaft ist in einem Nebengebäude untergebracht. Weit mehr als 1.500 Menschen arbeiten im Kriminalgericht.

 

Das Kriminalgericht Moabit gehört zu den architekturgeschichtlich bedeutendsten Bauten der wilhelminischen Ära. Mit seinen schlossähnlichen Ausmaßen, der imposanten Gestaltung und der prachtvollen Treppenhalle erregte das Gerichtsgebäude großes Aufsehen.

 

Der Komplex des denkmalgeschützten Kriminalgerichts wird im Osten ergänzt durch das sternförmige Untersuchungsgefängnis, das im Jahre 1875 errichtet wurde und damit der älteste Teil der Gesamtanlage ist. Dieser ist mit Geheimgängen zu den Gerichtssälen verbunden.

The Registan was the heart of the ancient city of Samarkand of the Timurid dynasty, now in Uzbekistan. The name Rēgistan means "Sandy place" or "desert" in Persian.

 

The Registan was a public square, where people gathered to hear royal proclamations, heralded by blasts on enormous copper pipes called dzharchis - and a place of public executions. It is framed by three madrasahs (Islamic schools) of distinctive Islamic architecture.

 

The three madrasahs of the Registan are: the Ulugh Beg Madrasah (1417–1420), the Tilya-Kori Madrasah (1646–1660) and the Sher-Dor Madrasah (1619–1636). Madrasah is an Arabic term meaning school.

  

Tower Hill is infamous for the public execution of high status prisoners from the late 14th to the mid 18th century. The execution site on the higher ground north-west of the Tower of London moat is now occupied by Trinity Square Gardens. … — WikiPedia

Duomo or Cathedral?

 

They can usually be used as a synonym. In Italian there is also the word Catedralle, which is the church of the city's bishop. The Duomo is the main church in the city, so most of the time Cathedral and Duomo are the same church.

 

In 1329, Andrea Pisano, recommended by Giotto, was commissioned to design the first doors (Portas Sul). The execution lasted six years and was completed in 1336. They consist of 28 quadrangular panels, representing scenes from the life of São João Batista and the virtues. The reliefs were added by Lorenzo Ghiberti in 1452. Vincenzo Danti created the statues above the doors in 1571.

Execution Rocks Light is a lighthouse in the middle of Long Island Sound on the border between New Rochelle and Sands Point, New York. It stands 55 feet tall, with a white light flashing every 10 seconds

Foulden Parish Church is in the midst of this picturesque village which stands close to the border with spectacular views south over the Merse to the Cheviots. The present building was constructed in 1786 although the site dates to medieval times, and is most famous for hosting a meeting of English and Scottish commissioners in 1587 following the execution of Mary Queen of Scots. The church is home to the Foulden & Mordington congregation and received a Grade "B" listing in 1971.

The statue, at 12 feet tall and weighing 9 tons, came to Louisville in 1967 as a gift from Mayor Francois Delmas of Montpellier, France. The two cities had recently become "sister cities" and the statue was presented as a gift of friendship between the two cities.

It was crafted by the French sculptor Achille-Joseph Valois and originally unveiled in the 1820's in Montpellier, France, 36 years after the execution of King Louis XVI.

LNER Class 91 91111 "For the Fallen" arrived at London Kings Cross on 1a25 1045 Leeds - London Kings Cross on 23/05/2021

At Mt. Rushmore in South Dakota. Mount Rushmore National Memorial is centered on a sculpture carved into the granite face of Mount Rushmore in the Black Hills in Keystone, South Dakota, United States. Sculptor Gutzon Borglum created the sculpture's design and oversaw the project's execution from 1927 to 1941 with the help of his son Lincoln Borglum. The sculpture features the 60-foot (18 m) heads of Presidents George Washington (1732–1799), Thomas Jefferson (1743–1826), Theodore Roosevelt (1858–1919), and Abraham Lincoln (1809–1865), as recommended by Borglum. The four presidents were chosen to represent the nation's birth, growth, development, and preservation, respectively.

King Bart the Odiferous was royally upset that his well-planned wedding was so terribly interrupted. But there was a bright side to his misfortunes. In the pandemonium of the ruined ceremony, his soldiers had managed to capture a single forester outlaw! What luck! King Bart's favorite pastime was watching the executions, and he certainly wasn't going to miss this one. Unfortunately for the king, the rascally foresters don't take too kindly to their comrades being beheaded, and it seems as if they are about to foil his majesty's well-laid plans once again...

 

Ryan was kind enough to send Steven and I some of his new Executioner pieces, so obviously we had to build a cool scene with em! ;)

THE EXECUTIONER

 

Björn had an axe imported from Denmark and decided the execution would take place on a hill on the main route by Pristapar. The district commissioner put a lot of effort into getting Natan's brother to take on the job of executioner.

 

BÖÐULLINN

 

Björn lét flytja inn öxi frá Danmörku og ákvað að aftakan færi fram í alfaraleið, við Pristapa. Sýslumaður lagði mikið á sig til að fá Guðmund Ketilsson, bróður Natans, til að taka að sér boðulsstarfið.

 

THE EXECUTION

 

Friðrik wanted to see the axe, kissed it and said: "This is the blessed tool of justice, which I have earned for my sins. Praise be to God for it". His head was severed in a single blow and the axe remained stuck in the block. Two men were needed to remove it. Friðrik was nineteen years old.

 

AFTAKAN

 

Friðrik vildi fá að sjá öxina, kyssti hana svo og sagði: „Þetta er blessaður rjettlætisvöndur, sem jeg hefi forþjenað með mínum syndum. Guði sje lof fyrir hann." Höfuð hans fór af í einu höggi og stóð öxin föst í stokknum. Þurfti tvo menn til að losa hana. Friðrik var nitján ára.

With various cells and holdings all across the globe, Aku Corp often find themselves dealing with municipal gangs, whose loyalty is questionable and ulterior motives unknown. Corruption runs deep within these groups, most notoriously inside the Black Lotus, an organization whose reign boasts a sizeable portion of downtown Tokyo. It's use of various businesses as launderers and fronts for black market deals has grown exponentially, catching the eye of local Aku officers.

According to inside sources, the Black Lotus were looking to expand their minature mafia empire, which could most certainly challenge the interests of Aku. Naturally, they sought to eliminate this thorn in their side before it grew into a bushel that could no longer be sheared so easily. The chaos of this new era is far too great to afford any avoidable losses, so therefore the bug is set be squashed under the boot of domination. Power must be asserted, or will otherwise be taken possession of.

With all the heads of the Black Lotus clan rounded up, a ray of eerie red sunlight peeks it's way through the morning smog. As the fog breaks and the sky is revealed, disheveled are each of the former crimelords, now mere shells of men. A small price to pay to avoid what could have been for the Aku Corporation. After all we must be cunning and ruthless in this cruel era; this new World In Darkness.

 

This is my entry into the world in darkness contest. The schoolyard depicted is that from a concept art piece of the movie Akira.

Execution on Anoat | Dark Times RPG

 

“Many years ago during the Jedi Purge, Jedi Master Siuz Tregú led a group of clone troopers to the planet of Anoat. Orders were given to scout the dust ball and report any signs of life or movement from the Seps. That day however, was the day clones turned on the scum which were the Jedi and as we all know, they were taken out. Siuz, as the report says, was just the same. Another loose end.”

 

Here to show you a MOC me and Luca (luca_s_projects) worked on last weekend while I visited and attended DLA. This was built during some free time we had and did quite well. The MOC consists of the clones and Jedi as mentioned above, speeder design built by Luca and some terrain surrounded by a wall of bricks in DBG. Let us know what you think by commenting below. ~ Noah
