  • The State of Oklahoma had to proceed, on Tuesday, April 29th, to a double execution for the first time since almost eighty years. Clayton Lockett and Charles Warner must be killed by injection in a prison situated in a town in the southeast of Oklahoma City

    But everything did not go according to plan. These two executions must be realized by means of a new protocol which had never been tested. The new procedure plans the injection of three products to the condemned person: a painkiller, an anesthetic and some potassium chloride with lethal dose

    " AN OPPRESSION AND ATROCIOUS PAINS "

    A doctor came then to examine the place where the injection had been made and discovered that a vein had burst, preventing the painkiller from acting suitably, according to the explanations given by the director of the administration of the prisons of Oklahoma, Robert Patton.

     

    The New York Times specifies that, without the effect planned by the painkiller, the injection of two other products causes " an oppression and atrocious pains ". " It was extremely difficult to see that. That looked like the torture ", declared, at the exit of the execution room, the lawyers of Clayton Lockett. The condemned person finally died from a heart attack at 7:06 am, that is about three quarters of an hour after the beginning of the execution.

    Year 2013 was for the death penalty in the United States one year of decline, marked by executions and death sentences at levels among most low for decades

  • Last week end I went to La Comédie Française to watch a representation of Andromaque ( a dramatic play written by Jean Racine) settled by Muriel Mayette-Holtz. This was a very impressive casting and it took place in the famous salle Richelieu. The stage was separated by three greek columns and the costumes of the comedians were made of  white silk and cotton and were wavering thanks to an artificial wind.

    Many critics said that the representation was to light and purified to touch the audience. I do not agre because I felt involve by the story and the way the comedians played the characters.

  • The House of the Rising Sun is an american folk song whose origin is unknown. Some people think that the song was written by a couple from Kentucky (Georgia Turner and Bert Martin).

    This song is one of the most covered since the XXth century. The meaning of the lyrics is submit to a controversy because the expression "Rising Sun" was commonly used like a euphemism to talk about brothel. But according to some people, "the Rising Sun" was a prison for women in New Orleans. That would probably explain the expression "ball and chain" at the end of the song.

    When you search "the house of the rising sun lyrics" in google, the first answer will be the version of the band The Animal, released in 1964. Those lyrics are quite correct copairing to the originals except for one detail :

    "There is a house in New Orleans
    They call the Rising Sun
    And it's been the ruin of many a poor boy
    And God, I know I'm one "


    In fact in the original version, the song is the testimony of a young woman. But many bands like Muse (2010) or The Walls of Jericho (2008) changed the lyrics in a lot of different ways.

    My three favorite covers are the version of Nina Simone(1962):

    the version of Lauren O'Connel (2013):

    and the version of the White Buffalo (2011):
