I thought maybe a black & white treatment of my close-up of the gallows might give a realistic feel to the story. It may be a replicated gallows but it sure looks real enough. Old bootlegger Charlie Birger was actually a popular character in the region but when it was found he ordered the hit on the Mayor of the nearby West City, IL so he sealed his own fate. He was the last person to be publicly executed in Illinois, he was hung right hear in the back yard of the Franklin County Jail on April 28, 1928. As many as 5000 citizens gathered to witness the spectacle.
Here one photo history of the story:

Each year, on the last Sunday of January the Kings Army hold a parade to commemorate the execution of Charles I. The march is along the Mall in London and the parade is on Horseguards Parade. These photos show the participants in 2012.
Chapter 1, "The Execution" from, "A Night of Violence: The Houston Riot of 1917" by Robert V. Haynes, Copyright 1976. Book about the Camp Logan Riot/Mutiny of 1917 in Houston, Texas.
The bolshevik party introduced the cheka, a secret police force, that could now execute someone without trial. Lenin used this to execute anyone that opposed him or presented a threat to the bolshevik party. In the Russian civil war it is believed that the cheka executed more than 200,000 people that presented a "threat" to Lenin or the party.
Christopher Newton's execution was previously scheduled for February 27th, but newly elected Governor Strickland postponed the execution, along with those of two other inmates, so he could review their cases to consider clemency. The first of the three, James Filiaggi, was executed in April.
Outside the Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, Death Penalty abolitionists erect signs mourning the impending death of Newton and the death of his victim, Jason Brewer and calling for prayers for the souls of both, as well as their families.
One story relates how, while Nicholas was visiting a remote part of his diocese, several citizens from Myra arrived with the news that, in his absence, the ruler of the city, Eustathius, had condemned three innocent men to death. Nicholas set out immediately for home. Reaching the outskirts of the city, he asked those he met on the road if they knew what had happened to the prisoners. Informed that their execution was to be carried out that morning, he hurried to the executioner's field, where he found a large crowd of people and the three men kneeling with their arms bound behind them, awaiting the blow of the sword. Nicholas passed through the crowd, took the sword from the executioner's hands and threw it to the ground, ordering that the condemned men be freed from their bonds. Later the ruler sought the saint’s forgiveness. Only after a period of public repentance did Nicholas absolve him.

For day 5 of Videoblogging Week I’m digging up some never before seen footage I shot on December 13th last year. The scene is outside San Quentin State Prison the night of the execution of Stanley “Tookie” Williams. His execution was especially controversial as Williams had renounced gang life and had become an effective anti-gang activist. Thousands of anti-death penalty activists turned out in hopes of a last minute commutation of Williams’ sentence.
It's videoblogging week and this my contribution for today.
For my 30th birthday my wife took me on a wonderful trip to the fantastic city of Barcelona. The whole few days were amazing, with scorching weather & incredibly tasty food.
It was a great experience just wandering around the warren of cobbled streets in the Gothic Quarter & taking in all of the jaw dropping architecture.
This photograph was taken in the Placa Sant Felip Neri outside the facade of a gorgeous church. The whole square was eriely quiet & a sense of sadness hung in the air. This may have been to do with the pock marks in the stone work caused by rifle fire, as this wall was used by Franco's execution squads during & after the Spanish Civil War.
The execution wall between blocks 10 & 11 at Auschwitz - block 11 held cells (the lower windows) where up to a 100 people were crammed in to rooms & not given anything to eat or drink. It also contained tiny 4 people standing cells where people were held. I found the lower block rooms in block 11 to be really sad, dark, depressive & the people held there would have heard the executions on the other side of the wall ....

Triste destin que celui des héros de notre jeunesse... Les balancements grotesques de leurs corps sans vie n'ayant pour origine que les assauts du vent de notre cruauté. Regardez leurs yeux exorbités mesdames et messieurs, n'avez vous donc pas une once de pitié ?
Van Nelle Factory, Rotterdam The Netherlands – Architects: Brinkman and Van der Vlugt – masterplan 1914 – 1923; design 1923 – 1925; execution 1925 - 1931
The Van Nelle Factory is one of the highlights of the Modern Movement in the Netherlands. The impressive glass building is not only an example of functionalism and rational production, but also improved working conditions for workers in the twentieth century. The restored building is now one of the most important monuments of Rotterdam
The Firm Van Nelle was selling coffee, tea, tobacco and snuff in Rotterdam since 1782. The entirely new complex consists of the actual factory building, an office building, a warehouse, expedition and storage depots along the canal, a boiler house and several workshops. A cafeteria and sports fields were also to be found in the area. The factory building consists of three elongated in height sloping parts separated by stairwells. Tobacco has eight, coffee five and tea factory three floors. The staircases house the washing and changing facilities, toilets and lifts, separated for men and women. This allowed for continues factory floors and easily adjustable layouts. By using a concrete frame the non-load bearing facades could be made almost entirely of glass with only thin steel frames. Light and air could penetrate deep into the building. The expedition and storage strip along the water is connected to the main building by overhead conveyor bridges. Another sky bridge connects the plant to the office at the entrance of the complex. The office consists of a strip with two layers of offices and a large open space with glass walls and glass meeting rooms. The office follows the curve in the road. During construction, a tea room on the roof of the tobacco factory was added.
In 1942, low-rise warehouses designed by Brinkman and Van den Broek were realized. In 1974 at the back of the building, a new distribution centre was built. In 1951 other products such as pudding and chewing gum made their entrance. After a takeover by the American Standard Brands in 1989, Van Nelle competitor Sara Lee / Douwe Egberts, sold the complex in 1995, so it could finally get the status of national monument. Using the name Van Nelle Design Factory, the complex started a new life. The factory complex was restored by Wessel de Jonge and Claessens Erdmann. The transparency of the factory floor was maintained as much as possible by the new climate walls on the inside. The new inner facades are made of aluminium and therefore clearly identifiable as new elements. On the floors office spaces of various sizes have been realized for the creative sector. The ground floor is used for exhibitions and conferences. The adjacent buildings have been restored and are used by a number of architectural firms.
If you look carefully, you can see an ominous turn in the road. You can see the photographer's shadow, like a gunman placing the gun on the temple of his victim. You can see Sandra and another Sandra and Sandra's shadow. You can even see the photographer's sleeve. And you can see Manuel's shadow where his eye actually is. All this on a remote road in the Catalan countryside.
Some of the more famous Tower prisoners were executed within the Inner Ward of the Tower. There were fewer spectators here, on Tower Green, than for those executions held just north of the Tower on Tower Hill, but there could still be a couple hundred people viewing the "private" execution. Lower-class prisoners who were executed at Tower Hill were usually hanged; beheading was reserved for higher-class or high-profile prisoners. The seven on this sign were all beheaded for treason.
The last person executed at the Tower was Josef Jakobs, a German spy, in 1941 by firing squad.
This map shows which brigades had larger numbers of extrajudicial killings occur in their areas of operation in 2006-07.

“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.

This is where convicted pirates were hanged.Their bodies were chained to a post at low tide and left there until three tides had washed over them,
The Rieme-Oostakker Place of Execution is the place in the Ghent district of Oostakker where 66 resistance fighters were executed by the Naxi occupation force between February 8, 1943 and August 24, 1944.
This memory is also kept alive the 20 resistance fighters who were killed on the execution site at Rieme . That site was destroyed in 1998 during the construction of the Kluizendok of Ghent Port.
The executions were carried out in secret and the victims were buried anonymously. Some of the resistance fighters killed in Rieme was found in a mass grave in Hechtel.
Moreover, there were German soldiers and Belgian criminals also shot. Because of these circumstances, it is still unclear how many people were killed. After the Liberation the mass grave was uncovered in Oostakker. The victims were identified and buried in their hometowns.
The crosses on the ground thus have a symbolic meaning. Nevertheless, the execution place is a cemetery since in 1952 the remains of 15 decapitated West Flemish political prisoners were moved here from their graves in Munich.
On the grounds is a railway carriage which carried hundreds of Belgians to concentration camps in Germany and Poland. In 1966 the execution place gained the status of a protected landscape.
