I remember driving to church that Sunday, September 16, 2001. My church, at the time, was 24 miles from my front door... that drive took me through part of Durham, onto I-85, and into the countryside through to Cedar Grove. I passed many other churches along the way... one thing they had in common this day was that each church appeared to be experiencing an overflow condition known as SRO... Standing Room Only. Americans were responding to events of the previous week, now known as 9/11. They were looking for answers.

I know without doubt that some of those churches had little to no answer to 9-11, other than to make poor attempts to sooth and console those in attendance. I know because that also occurred at my church. In the ensuing weeks, those SRO numbers tapered back to 'normal' conditions... the crowds obviously didn't find the answer they were hoping for. With their 'repentance' taken care of, they might return at Christmas, or Easter... or not.

The 2nd chapter of Revelation opens with a description of the Church of Ephesus, a church not unlike many others, even today, busy about the things that Christians do, which is a good thing, right? Jesus took issue with that in verse 4: "Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first." Just exactly who is that first love? Why does it matter? There's a whole lot to be said for that statement, especially concerning the condition of this world 17 years after 9/11... it also means the answer so many were looking for then is the same as it is now. If folks understood the depth of that answer, Sundays would still see SRO conditions at every church.

On September 11, 2001, 19 Islamic terrorists gave their lives in Jihad as they turned four large commercial aircraft into guided missiles. 2977 innocent people became victims that day in their unholy war... to have the world bow to their vision of what is just before their god. Around 33 AD, another man gave His life so that all may be justified through Him and live. There's an answer in there somewhere.

John 3:12 - When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”

This is the 1000-watt light shining through the restored Fresnel lens of the Bodie Island Lighthouse on North Carolina's Outer banks... historically, its light has reached out over the Atlantic as a navigational aid, and has saved lives, which seems more than analogous to Jesus' statement concerning Himself. It's just beginning to rain as this shot was made, just the dynamic conditions that made this light necessary.

TARDIS console room by Librarian-Bot

This is mostly me wanting to give GunnBuilding's TARDIS arch design a go, coupled with working up a proper powered time rotor from my previous test model.

Featuring a potential incarnation of the Doctor, full wheelchair access (really bugs me that this isn't something modern console rooms have ever had) and a few special guests lurking in the catacombs!

Tardis Console Room by MysticBuilds

So this is probably going to be my last console room design. It's inspired by Sam K Brick's recent console room design.

I had plans to build the Shalka Tardis, but I've shelved that due to trying to find a way to build the large staircase for it.

I'm most likely going to render this out again at some point (I used the fastest rendering method) as the colours aren't as great on this rendering, the console is actually white.

I really wanted to use my pipe pillars again, I just love how they look.

This one also has more furniture than other designs, again inspired by Sam K Bricks model.

SOUL CONSOLING TOWER by akahawkeyefan

23 31

Manzanar internment camp. I have photographed and posted this monument before, but I'm often compelled to revisit it.

On May 16, 1942, Matsunosuke Murakami, 62, became the first of 150 men, women, and children to die in camp. He and 14 others, most infants and older men without families, were laid to rest in the Manzanar cemetery. The cemetery was outside the barbed wire fence in an old peach orchard from Manzanar's farming era. In the shadow of majestic Mt. Williamson their somber funerals and memorials were attended by hundreds of mourners.

While some deceased were sent to hometown cemeteries, most were cremated. Their ashes were held in camp until their families left Manzanar. Six burials remain today.

Visiting the cemetery can be a personal pilgrimage: of reflection, worship, remembrance, or protest. Some people leave offerings: coins, personal mementos, paper cranes, water and sake, and religious items. These are tangible expressions of the ongoing, unspoken conversations about America’s past and its future.

For more than six decades, the large concrete monument in the Manzanar cemetery has memorialized those who died here. The monument’s Japanese Kanji characters read, “Soul Consoling Tower” on the front and “Erected by the Manzanar Japanese, August 1943” on the back.
