Adrian Greenwood, 42, British art dealer and author, stabbed.[216]

this one tho

A historian who made a name for himself dealing modern first editions of books including the Harry Potter series has been found stabbed to death following a “vicious and sustained attack”.

Adrian Greenwood, 42, was found by his cleaner in the hallway of his four-storey house in Oxford on Thursday afternoon, Thames Valley police said.

He was pronounced dead at the scene and a postmortem examination gave the cause of death as multiple stab wounds. A 26-year-old man has been arrested on suspicion of murder and is in police custody. Police are yet to recover the murder weapon, which they believe is a bladed article.

A man accused of killing the historian Adrian Greenwood was taken to the wrong court by prison transport contractor GeoAmey, delaying the hearing by five hours.

Pablo Lucio Vasquez, 38, American murderer, execution by lethal injection.[238]

hans koschnick was often referred to as the lou reed of the bremen political scene but it would probably be more apt to think of lou reed as the hans koschnick of the factory

Ariffin Mohammed (1943 – 22 April 2016) was the cult leader and founder of Kerajaan Langit, (English: Sky Kingdom), a sect founded by him in Malaysia. His movement had a commune based in Besut, Terengganu, that was demolished by the Malaysian government in August 2005.[1] Ariffin Mohammed, also known as Ayah Pin (Ayah is a common honorific meaning "father"), claimed to have direct contact with the heavens and was believed by his followers to be the reincarnation of Jesus, Buddha, Shiva, and Muhammad. Devotees of Sky Kingdom believe that one day, Ayah Pin will return as the Imam Mahdi. His followers considered him the king of the sky, and the supreme object of devotion for all religions.

https://i.ytimg.com/vi/VzJbWUjSfyA/maxresdefault.jpg

The commune features some structures which are symbolic of the group's ideology. Some notable symbols include a two-story high cream coloured teapot[4] with matching blue vase, costing RM 45 million. The teapot is said to symbolise the purity of water and "love pouring from heaven". It is the earthly model of a celestial prototype. According to Ayah Pin, it was inspired by the dreams of one of his followers, and reflects a similar vessel in the sky which God uses to shower his blessings on mankind.[7] Followers who visits the commune for the first time have to drink "holy water" from the vase which is "perpetually" filled by the teapot.[7]

At sunset the man and his best friend have driven to the crest of the highest hill around. They've had a good day of hunting in the lakes and marshes below. Now both rest, but the man carefully watches the migrating patterns of the distant waterfowl. Tomorrow he'll have a better idea of where the best hunting will likely be. In this spectacular panorama we see a beautiful slice of rural America. Just follow the winding road past the gas station, then the bait shop, the farms, over the bridge and home to a town with its typical water tower and church steeple. Encore II open edition.

Question

Forgive my ignorance at posting this in the wrong section, but there's something that I have wondered about frequently - has there ever been a day where no one died, i.e. no one notable enough to be included on this list? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 172.78.34.6 (talk) 03:13, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Well, I have been editing these pages for almost 10 years and I do not recall a death-free day. WWGB (talk) 03:20, 27 April 2016 (UTC)

Walther Gottlieb Louis Leisler Kiep (5 January 1926 – 9 May 2016) was a German politician of the Christian Democratic Union (CDU). He was a member of the Bundestag between 1965 and 1976 and again from 1980 to 1982.

Coming from a liberal family,[1] Kiep was born on 5 January 1926 in Hamburg to Louis Leisler Kiep, a navy captain and business man, and Eugenie Maria Anna vom Rath.[2] Kiep went to school in Hamburg and Istanbul, achieving his Abitur in 1943 before joining the Wehrmacht.[1] On 20 April 1944, Adolf Hitler's birthday, he joined the Nazi Party.[3]

From 1950,[8] Kiep was married to Charlotte Kiep, born 1920, daughter of IG Farben board member and convicted war criminal Fritz ter Meer. They met when Kiep was only thirteen years old. He needed to visit Fritz ter Meer in Landsberg Prison to ask for his daughter's hand in marriage.[9]

Victor Atanasie Stănculescu (May 10, 1928 – June 19, 2016) was a Romanian general during the Communist era. He played a central role in the overthrow of the dictatorship by refusing to carry out the orders of Romanian dictator Nicolae Ceauşescu during the Romanian Revolution of 1989. His inaction allowed the citizens demonstrating in Bucharest against the government to seize control. In addition, as a defense minister on 25 December 1989, Stanculescu organized the trial and execution of Nicolae and Elena Ceauşescu.

Thomas Taylor, Baron Taylor of Blackburn, CBE JP DL[1] (10 June 1929 – 25 November 2016)
On 17 November 2016, Taylor was involved in an accident when his mobility scooter collided with a van outside parliament. He died on 25 November 2016 as a result of injuries sustained in the crash.[13] Baroness Smith of Basildon, Shadow leader of the House of Lords, said he would be "sadly missed". [14]

Paul Wünsche (* 11. September 1922 in Lauban; † 16. Dezember 2016 in Bamberg) war ein deutscher Politiker (CSU).

Wünsche lernte nach Abschluss der Volksschule den Beruf des Textilindustriekaufmanns. Von 1941 bis 1945 war er Soldat im Zweiten Weltkrieg, 1947 kehrte er aus sowjetischer Kriegsgefangenschaft zurück, seitdem war er in Bamberg ansässig. Wünsche war Diözesansekretär der Christlichen Arbeiterjugend, besuchte das Katholische Sozialinstitut und war von 1954 bis 1987 Leiter des Katholischen Volksbüros und Diözesansekretär der Katholischen Arbeitnehmer-Bewegung in Bamberg.

Gottfried Tröger (* 20. Februar 1935 in Lobsdorf; † 16. Dezember 2016[1]) war ein deutscher Politiker (CDU).

Gottfried Tröger besuchte die Grundschule in seinem Geburtsort. Er absolvierte die Fachschule in Chemnitz und erhielt 1968 das Landwirtschaftliche Diplom an der Universität Leipzig. Von 1960 bis 1968 war er Mitarbeiter im Rat für Landwirtschaft und Nahrungsgüterwirtschaft. In den Jahren 1968 bis 1970 war er als Leiter des Beratungsdienstes Getreidewirtschaft tätig und von 1970 bis 1990 Leiter des Betriebsteils Glauchauer Getreidewirtschaft. Nach der Wiedervereinigung war er von 1990 bis 1994 Leiter der Baywa-AG.

Tröger war evangelischen Glaubens, verheiratet und hatte drei Kinder.

Wünsche's last words were, "Gottfried Tröger still survives." He was mistaken: Tröger had died five hours earlier in the Führerbunker at the age of 81. Heartbreaking.

well done

the sixth anniversary of Koschnick's passing is coming up on the 21st. sad that he died at the tail end of the "every minor celebrity's passing deserves a perfunctory nod" era but didn't live to see the dawn of the "every lately deceased minor celebrity was one of the top ten most influential people in our lives (and the world)" era.
