We had our annual week of Bible camp for the ELCA and LCMS churches of southern Arizona. We rented the Triangle Y Ranch Camp in Oracle, and it comes with a built in worship area from the 1940's. Because of HUGE fire danger we didn't even try to light a real fire, but we were able to set some mood with votives around the fire.
Oracle CEO Larry Ellison (Larry Ellison) and HP continue to escalate the conflict.

My wife called me the biggest dork she ever meet when I told her "that building looks like a database". Sure enough, its the Oracle building.

Nechung oracle in trance, delivering messages from the god Dorje Drakden. Although the god is usually summoned to enter the human medium's body by the Dalai Lama to answer questions for the Tibetan government, this occasion was commissioned by a group of monastics from south India - Sera Mey or Drepung, I think.
It is nearly impossible to get a "good" photo of the Oracle, because 1-he is moving, shaking and heaving the whole time, 2-flash photography and actually, any photography is discouraged, and 3-there are crowds of people shoving to get nearer to the medium. This was the only photo I got where you can clearly see his hands, the rice and so on. In all the others he is covered up by people seeking blessings and trying to decipher what he's saying.
You actually get a very accurate idea of the "Oracle experience" by watching the movie "Kundun."
My friend Stirling had the ultimate description of the headdress: she said it looks like the Dr Seuss book, "Bartholomew Cubbins and the 500 Hats."

Don't those panels make a beautiful gradient in the sunlight?
The Oracle Challenger flown by Sean Tucker put on quite the performance at the 2008 Joint Services Open House airshow at Andrews AFB. No other plane came close to the stunts and maneuvers that this plane performed.

She's a beautiful doll, but her knee joints are really week, so I could only photograph her sitting or on a stand.
Thinking about it, if she cannot stand on her own - she could use a wheelchair.
Now she reminds me of Oracle (Barbara Gordon) after she got shot by the Joker - paralyzed, tied to a chair, but not broken - going on to do things she always did. A strong-minded and strong-wiilled woman.
A view of the Oracle towers at blue hour. Ten years ago, I remember seeing a picture of these towers during daylight and always dreamt of working for this company :)

The weather finally cooperated (sort of) and I managed to get out and and shoot a bit. I drove up to Redwood Shores, to the lair of Larry and shot around Oracle HQ. Its an impressive campus, with an impressively large security force.

Oracle- The lowlife that put the bounty on your head was Sionis.
Batman- Black Mask
Oracle- I'm hacking into the live feed of the cameras in Sionis industries.
====Sionis Industries====
Black Mask- What's taking you all so damn long to load the weapons on the truck!?
Black Mask Thug- Sorry boss, the weapons are pretty heavy.
Black Mask- I don't want to hear any damn excuses, what I want to hear is you load those weapons on the truck.
(Black Mask then punches him in the face)
Black Mask- NOW DO YOUR DAMN JOB!
====Coms====
Oracle- It looks like he's shipping illegal caches of guns in and out of Gotham on post office trucks.
Batman- I'm already here.
Oracle- Of course you are.
====Sionis Industries====
Black Mask Thug- Hey boss something's wrong with the camera feed.
(Black Mask picks up a crowbar and opens a crate)
Black Mask- Each of you grab a gun, you see anything you shoot it.
Black Mask- I'm going to my office.
(Batman throws a smoke pellet to the ground)
Black Mask Thug- Smoke! Wait I see someone, IT'S BATMAN!
Black Mask- What the hell is happening out there!
(And out of the smoke only one man stands--Batman. Black Mask steps out of his office)
Black Mask- Ah Batman so glad you could make it to the party. Funny I don't remember you getting an invitation. I'll have to kill you myself.
(Black Mask then pulls a gun out on Batman)
Black Mask- There's only one way you're leaving out of here & that's in a body bag.
Batman- I don't think so.
(Batman then disarms Black Mask & breaks his arm)
Black Mask- Ahhhhh
Batman- You're going to Blackgate Sionis.
(Batman takes out his explosive gel & blows up all the weapons crates)
(Batman contacts Gordon)
Gordon- Hello Batman
(Sionis is tied up, & I've just sent you the evidence you need to put him away)
Gordon- Thanks Batman
