The Execution Trench (indicated by the red arrow) is in a part of the Sachsenhausen camp supposedly nick-named "Station Z" by the SS, as it was the "final stop." More on Station Z, along with a comparison of how this part of the memorial has changed since 1999 can be seen on the highly authoritative scrapbookpages.
The pamphlet/map I brought in the visitor centre says: "In this trench, resistance fighters, conscientious objectors and people sentenced by the Nazis were executed."
Never forget - be watchful!

The following names of the on the plaques under the heading "They died for freedom of Austria" cited victims - ident or corrected - are complemented with date of birth, occupation, date of execution and grave address. These indicates, unless stated otherwise, row and grave in the shaft graves complex of group 40 of the Vienna Central Cemetery. The vast majority of the executed were convicted "for preparing a high treason". For those who have been convicted of another offense, this one is indicated.
The data are based on the following sources:

The Documentation Centre of Austrian Resistance intends to issue a documentation that provides information on the Regional Court of Vienna under Nazi rule, includes biographies of those executed and depicts the origin of the consecration site.

It is taken from a raised floor. During the month of Karthik, generally this is done.
I was amazed seeing the meticulous execution that is identical to the lords in the Puri Jagannath temple.
Many of those incarcerated within the Tower of London over the centuries would be executed, the majority in public spectacles held outside the Tower’s walls, on nearby Tower Hill.
However, as a privilege of rank, two Queens consort and five other nobles were executed in private within the Tower itself: William, Lord Hastings in 1483; Anne Boleyn in 1536; Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury in 1541; Catherine Howard and her lady-in-waiting Jane, Viscountess Rochford, in 1542; Lady Jane Grey in 1554; and Robert Devereux, Earl of Essex in 1601.
Perhaps unsurprisingly, some of the many ghosts reputed to haunt the Tower of London are of individuals who were “untopped” here, on Tower Green.
In 2006 the sculpture of a glass pillow, indented as if an invisible head rests upon it, was placed on the site in commemoration.
For further details, see my Haunted London (The History Press, 2007).
In light of the delay: David Motley, the city's PR-rep, made some last-second rescues before the excavator arrived. Many artifacts donated to the Historical Society include signage, hangars, garmet bags, copper panels from the turret, and Stacey Adams shoes that were still on the shelves.
Dash Express - An internet connected GPS device. The concept is really good, but the execution is...
I read a few days ago that Dash will no longer make the physical device and instead, focus on selling the software to other GPS makers. Therefore, what I have here is a "collector's item"?!
The device itself is *BIG*, as compare with other 4.5" GPS devices. It is also very thick and bulky. Too bad. The internet connectivity is from with open WiFi, other Dash Express devices or GPRS (cellular). Therefore, this device requires monthly subscription to maintain the connectivity (which is a shame). It can "sense" the traffic around you from traffic reports received via internet or from other Dash devices (if there's more, it is better. Each device is a traffic probe giving out location, direction and speed). It can also find locations of whatever (I do mean whatever) via Yahoo's search (internet) and direct you there. Since it is using Yahoo instead of Google, the routing isn't quite as good, which is also a big shame.
[Sign:] The infamous "Hanging Judge Jeffries" was a local and a regular patron here.
It is said that he would enjoy his lunch on this balcony whilst watching the hangings at the place known as Execution Dock.
It was at Execution Dock that the famous pirate Captain Kidd met his end in 1701.
The noose below this point reminds us of this gruesome man who later died in the Tower of London.

Execution Dock was near the shoreline at Wapping and was used for over 400 years to execute pirates, smugglers and mutineers. Captain William Kidd is probably the most famous pirate to meet his death there in 1701. His corpse was put into a gibbet, a metal framed cage, and was left hanging at Tilbury Docks for 3 years. With the last execution in 1830, the exact location of Execution Dock is not known today but it’s claimed to be in the area where two pubs stand, the Prospect of Whitby and the Town of Ramsgate with the latter being the most likely. Round the back of the Prospect of Whitby there is a gallows with a noose hanging from it commemorating the location of Execution Dock.
The tragic romance of Mary, Queen of Scots life inspired Victorian artist Robert Herdman. She is shown as a saintly figure. Her blood-red petticoat symbolises her martyrdom to the Catholic faith.
Robert Herdman was a Victorian artist specialising in portraiture and historical compositions - was born in Rottray near Blairgowrie in Perthshire. He lived mainly in Edinburgh and he died in 1888
This painting bequeathed by Adam Teacher, 1898 and is on display at the Glasgow Art Gallery & Museum in Scotland.

The execution room at Seodaemun Prison. The preferred method of execution by the Japanese during the occupation: hanging.
Seodaemun Prison was built during the Japanese occupation (1910-1945) to keep Korean "dissidents" -- Koreans who rather valued national independence -- in line. The conditions were pretty barbarous, to say the least, and included torture along with other inhumane treatment.
