As one of the leader's of the Easter Rising and a signatory of the Proclomation of Independence James Connelly was sentenced to death. From Wikipedia:
"He was so badly injured from the fighting (a doctor had already said he had no more than a day or two to live, but the execution order was still given) that he was unable to stand before the firing squad. His absolution and last rites were administered by the Capuchin, Father Aloysius. Asked to pray for the soldiers about to shoot him, he said: 'I will say a prayer for all men who do their duty according to their lights'.
Instead of being marched to the same spot where the others had been executed, at the far end of the execution yard, he was tied to a chair and then shot. Although nobody knew it at the time, this was to be last of the executions for the Easter Rising. The executions were not well received, even throughout Britain, and were drawing unwanted attention from America, who the British Government were trying to lure into the War in Europe. There was uproar on both sides of the Atlantic when it became known that a dying man had been tied to a chair and killed. Asquith, the British PM then ordered that no more executions were to take place and all other death sentences were commuted."
We were also told that one of the people who demanded Connelly's execution was a wealthy Dublin businessman who may have resented Connelly's prior involvement with the trade unions.
This was a very poignant place.
Author of Dead Man Walking and The Death of Innocents, Sr. Helen Prejean travels the world to bring a message that executing fellow human beings should end. She was in Kentucky recently speaking to several groups.
Horrified, the crowd looks on.

“Vision without execution is just hallucination”
(T. Edison)
Intervista con Nerio Zurli
Nerio è Managing Director di HAVI Logistic Srl, dove lavora dal gennaio 1998.
In precedenza ha operato presso Vegè e la Gianni Fontana ed Associati.
Quali sono gli strumenti formativi che ritiene più utili nel suo contesto aziendale? Che contributo crede possano dare forme connesse alla creatività e all’arte, quali ad esempio il teatro e perché no il coaching?
HAVI utilizza da sempre molteplici strumenti di formazione sia in ambito manageriale che per specifiche aree o funzioni, a seconda delle esigenze dell’organizzazione. I più comuni ed utilizzati sono:
*Corsi o seminari specifici
*Attività di training on the job
*Coaching
*E-Learning
*Mentoring
L’utilizzo di linguaggi elementi culturali come il teatro, il cinema o lo sport sono forme di apprendimento che utilizziamo raramente, ma sono certamente una interessante ed innovativa opportunità per realizzare attività formative esperienziali efficaci e coinvolgenti. Il coaching è sicuramente una delle tecniche più efficaci che utilizziamo sia con il supporto di società esterne che con risorse interne che hanno ottenuto una specifica certificazione.
Quali sono le principali competenze che cerca nelle persone che collaborano con lei e di cui non vorrebbe fare a meno?
HAVI opera come lead logistics provider in ambito internazionale e va da se che, date le caratteristiche del nostro business, nella selezione delle risorse manageriali vengono privilegiate competenze afferenti ad aree quali: Relazionale (Comunicazione e Leadership), Cognitiva (flessibilità, capacità di cambiamento, decisionale e gestione dello stress), Realizzativa (orientamento al risultato e people management).
Cos'è per lei essere leader nel suo lavoro ?
In HAVI essere leader significa essere colui che fa si che le cose accadano, che nulla sia lasciato al caso. Il leader assume il ruolo di facilitatore, di garante che l’insieme delle risorse disponibili producano i risultati attesi avendo come obiettivi l’eccellenza organizzativa, operativa ed economico-finanziaria.
Azienda in Scena
Azienda in Scena è la teatralizzazione di momenti reali di vita aziendale, realizzata da autori ed attori professionisti.
Vengono rappresentate situazioni ordinarie, quali riunioni di team, erogazione di feedback, incontri con colleghi e clienti, situazioni in cui spesso le capacità tecniche dei singoli non sono sufficienti, e dove occorrono, per il raggiungimento dei risultati personali ed aziendali, capacità relazionali che non sempre vengono utilizzate e sviluppate adeguatamente.
Azienda in Scena, strumento formativo che la EEC già propone ai suoi clienti, si basa sull'idea che la verosimiglianza teatrale predisponga positivamente i partecipanti prima ad osservare e poi a riscontrare come quanto spesso ciò che è presentato in scena sia simile al proprio vissuto lavorativo, stimolando così consapevolezza e riflessione.
Osservarsi dal di fuori, da un'altra prospettiva, è utile a prendere coscienza del proprio agire e a comprendere meglio il clima aziendale.
Quanto rappresentato viene commentato dai nostri ospiti, con l'interazione di Raquel Guarnieri e Laura Averone.
Come sempre prima degli eventi, i coach EEC offrono sessioni individuali di coaching gratuite a chi le richiede nell'iscrizione.
Azienda in Scena, Bologna 27 Aprile ore 17.00.
ZanHotel Europa, Via Cesare Boldrini 11.

Christ's body hangs from the cross on Mount Calvary, also known as Golgotha. Two criminals have been crucified on cut-down tree trunks, one on either side of Jesus' cross. The Roman soldiers who performed the execution can be seen wending their way back to the walled city of Jerusalem, having broken the legs of the condemned man on the left so that he would die faster. Golgotha translates as 'Place of the Skull'. According to tradition, it was also the burial place of Adam, the first man who - together with his wife Eve - was responsible for bringing sin into the world. Christ has died at this very place to redeem humanity from that same sin. Thanks to his sacrifice, people could once again hope for eternal life.
I'm told that "galge" in Norwegian means "gallows." This spot was reportedly an execution site a few hundred years ago.

Illustration from the 1800 edition of Foxe’s Book of Martyrs (this edition entitled, <Fox’s original and complete Book of Martyrs; Containing Copious & Authentic Accounts of the Lives, Sufferings and Deaths of the Protestant Martyrs in the Reign of Queen Mary the first; To which will be Added, The Lives and Persecutions of the Primitive Martyrs from the Birth of Christ to the time of Queen Mary)
Depicted in this scene is the execution of Lady Jane Grey. Underneath the engraving is an inscription reading:
Lady Jane Dudley (formerly Gray) Wife of Lord Guildford & Cousin to Queen Mary, beheaded by order of that bloody Princess on Tower Hill. Feb 21. 1554 being then entering her 17th year.
As the date of this publication indicates, Foxe’s work proved to have a lasting legacy, with editions still in demand by the nineteenth-century. Original sixteenth-century woodcuts of the persecutions of the martyrs were however frequently replaced with up-to-date illustrations and portraits. This engraving of Lady Jane Grey was an example of one of the eighteenth-century prints that were used.

The Colosseum or Coliseum (/?k?l?'si??m/ KOL-?-SEE-?m), also known as the Flavian Amphitheatre (Latin: Amphitheatrum Flavium; Italian: Anfiteatro Flavio [a?fite'a?tro 'fla?vjo] or Colosseo [kolos's??o]), is an oval amphitheatre in the centre of the city of Rome, Italy. Built of travertine limestone, tuff (volcanic rock) , and brick-faced concrete, it was the largest amphitheatre ever built at the time and held 50,000 spectators. The Colosseum is situated just east of the Roman Forum. Construction began under the emperor Vespasian in AD 72 and was completed in AD 80 under his successor and heir, Titus. Further modifications were made during the reign of Domitian (81–96). These three emperors are known as the Flavian dynasty, and the amphitheatre was named in Latin for its association with their family name (Flavius).
The Colosseum could hold an estimated 50,000 to 80,000 spectators during phases of its various renovations over the centuries, having an average audience of some 65,000; it was used for gladiatorial contests and public spectacles such as mock sea battles (for only a short time as the hypogeum was soon filled in with mechanisms to support the other activities), animal hunts, executions, re-enactments of famous battles, and dramas based on Classical mythology. The building ceased to be used for entertainment in the early medieval era. It was later reused for such purposes as housing, workshops, quarters for a religious order, a fortress, a quarry, and a Christian shrine.
Although substantially ruined because of earthquakes, thieves, and stone-robbers, the Colosseum is still an iconic symbol of Imperial Rome and is listed as one of the New7Wonders of the World. It is one of Rome's most popular tourist attractions and also has links to the Roman Catholic Church, as each Good Friday the Pope leads a torchlit "Way of the Cross" procession that starts in the area around the Colosseum.

Arch of Constantine, Rome (05-09-18
The Arch of Constantine (Italian: Arco di Costantino) is a triumphal arch in Rome, situated between the Colosseum and the Palatine Hill. It was erected by the Roman Senate to commemorate Constantine I's victory over Maxentius at the Battle of Milvian Bridge in 312. Dedicated in 315, it is the largest Roman triumphal arch.The arch spans the Via triumphalis, the way taken by the emperors when they entered the city in triumph.
Though dedicated to Constantine, much of the decorative material incorporated earlier work from the time of the emperors Trajan (98–117), Hadrian (117–138) and Marcus Aurelius (161–180), and is thus a collage. The last of the existing triumphal arches in Rome, it is also the only one to make extensive use of spolia, reusing several major reliefs from 2nd century imperial monuments, which give a striking and famous stylistic contrast to the sculpture newly created for the arch. This earned it the derisive nickname of Cornacchia di Esopo Aesop's Crow.
The arch is 21 m high, 25.9 m wide and 7.4 m deep. It has three archways, the central one being 11.5 m high and 6.5 m wide and the lateral archways 7.4 m by 3.4 m each. Above the archways is placed the attic, composed of brickwork revetted (faced) with marble. A staircase within the arch is entered from a door at some height from the ground, on the west side, facing the Palatine Hill. The general design with a main part structured by detached columns and an attic with the main inscription above is modelled after the example of the Arch of Septimius Severus on the Roman Forum.
After what, based on this old picture, must have been a chequered period in its history (the roof appears to be thatched), Queen Mary's House is these days a well maintained museum, devoted to Queen Mary herself. It opened in 1987, the 400th anniversary of her disgraceful execution in England. It contains an assortment of memorabilia including jewellery, belongings, documents and paintings, as well as a watch which Mary lost in a bog during that epic ride back from Hermitage Castle, which was found again by a shepherd 250 years later in a mole hill!
Execution Martyrs of Gorkum (Dutch: Martelaren van Gorcum) - a group of 19 Dutch Catholic clerics and friars who were tortured, hanged and mutilated on 9 July 1572 in the town of Brielle (or Den Briel) by militant Dutch Calvinists during the 16th century religious wars specifically the Dutch Revolt against Spanish rule, which developed into the Eighty Years' War.
It's just one example of the many very brutal actions that followed killing people because of religion.
