Birth(+)Fact(x)Death(-) Calendar
‘Once Upon a Time..., a look at art in Belgium in the Nineties’, was an exhibition of the collection of contemporary Belgian art which the Cera Foundation was able to put together during 5 years of patronage. - I pulled a bag over my head and tied up my feet and hands. I fell forward and lay on the ground. - Cera Holding is a financial group. The contemporary art collection was predominantly bought by Paul Tanghe, Luk Lambrecht and Bart De Baere, current director of the M_hka. - After half an hour I was untied by Mauro Pawlowski.

 Murderer Christopher J. Newton is executed by lethal injection at the age of 38 in Southern Ohio Correctional Facility, Lucasville, Ohio, United States.  His final meal request was of steak, asparagus, Brussels sprouts, feta cheese, a soft drink, cake and watermelon. Newton weighed 265 pounds and his veins were very difficult to locate. It took over two hours and 10 attempts before the execution was completed. It took so long that Newton was given a bathroom break. |
