(A blackout plunged the city's Kibera slum into darkness after President Mwai Kibaki was declared the winner of a presidential election, for a second five-year term, amid allegations of fraud and vote rigging. Violence erupted in various parts of the country. In Nairobi, where more than a million people, mostly Odinga supporters, live in densely packed slums, clashed with hundreds of riot police. Shops and shacks were torched while protestors waved clubs and machetes, chanting anti-Kibaki slogans.)

(Among his paintings the best known are The Sin and War, at the Munich Pinakothek, The Sphinx, The Crucifixion, The Rivals, Paradise Lost, Oedipus, Temptation, and Lucifer. Though Stuck was one of the leaders of the Munich Sezession, he enjoyed an appointment of professor at the academy. From a historical viewpoint, it is notable that one of Stuck's (later) fans was Adolf Hitler, who admired many of the aforementioned paintings. Moreover, some historians claim that Stuck's painting, The Wild Chase, influenced Hitler's appearance. Reportedly, Hitler admired the painting (which depicts the Norse god Odin on horseback), and copied both Odin's hair style and mustache - facial features Hitler became well-known for. However, Stuck painted The Wild Chase during the 1880s, and died years before Hitler was elected Chancellor; he could not have foreseen its future influence.)

(There are three views of the altarpiece. The first, with the wings closed, is a Crucifixion showing a harrowingly detailed, twisted, and bloody figure of Christ on the cross in the center flanked, on the left, by the mourning Madonna being comforted by John the Apostle, and Mary Magdalene kneeling with hands clasped in prayer, and, on the right, by a standing John the Baptist pointing to the dying Saviour. At the feet of the Baptist is a lamb holding a cross, symbol of the "Lamb of God" slaughtered for man's sins. In the second view, when the wings are opened, three scenes of celebration are revealed: the Annunciation, the Angel Concert for Madonna and Child, and the Resurrection. The third view with wings opened again discloses on either side of the carved innermost shrine two panels, Sts Paul and Antony in the Desert and a Temptation of St Antony. The Crucifixion is sombre and livid; inside, all is a magic glory of brilliant colour and light, and the final scenes of the Desert Saints are again lurid and eerie, with, in the Temptation, the kind of devil-haunted imagery that permeated Bosch's visions of sin.)

(An employee of Thomas Edision, Harold Brown patented the electric chair in 1887, and the chair was made a legal method of execution by New York State the following year. On August 6 1890, axe murderer William Kemmler is executed by two shocks, the first jolt failing to deliver lethality. He was the first person to be executed via electric chair. The electric chair operates by sending 2,000 volts through the customer. Sometimes mutiple shocks, as many as three or four -- called "death by installments" -- are required to kill. Most states have supplemented the chair by offering a choice between the chair and lethal injection)

But a Balrog slept in the deeps beneath Khazad-dum, and when it awoke the Dwarves were driven from their home. The halls of Khazad-dum were taken over by Orcs and other evil creatures and it became known as Moria, the Black Chasm, and was a place of fear and dread.)

Then wheeling somewhat more, it seemed to me, Terrible as the lightning he descended, And snatched me upward even to the fire. Therein it seemed that he and I were burning, And the imagined fire did scorch me so, That of necessity my sleep was broken.
