Lies Baas 2010 Twas the day after Christmas....bwahhahahahahhhh....I'm in for seconds ;-)
On Urbex in Rheine.....not the best shot, but I like the light on the ground, and the dark atmosphere>because it's not all in sync.
Ohh yeah, in Holland we have 2 days of Christmas ;-)
Yesterday, I had time to visit three places. First I went to see Nur and Juju over at Poetika. They have changed it again. Nur's vision and style is pure art. I love checking out what they do on that Sintetika sim. Beautiful glow on the trees on the second floor cast a glow in the chill area. I was there for a long time listening DJ Juju Dollinger spin a nice minimal set.
Later that day, I went and stopped in to say hi to DJ Particle over at Organica. She is also known on the Second LIfe grid as Emi Halical. This cute little avie can kick ass! LOL! I hung out there with the gang and listened to her spin an awesome psy set. Woot Emi!
Later that evening, my angel and I headed for the new sim called Magic of Oz. Totally inspired by the Wizard of Oz, we walked along the yellow brick road following it to Munchkin Land, the scarecrow's wheatfield, along the river to the Emerald City and then to the scary Witches Castle.
You can shop at Magic of Oz, too. Go to the Emerald City for cool stuff. Also, these sim owners peppered the entire place with gifts. You just have to click on the magic items (not telling you what... lol). You gotta go and see this sim... and the music? OMG, Dorothy is singing "Over the Rainbow!"
The Olympia Tower, second highest building in Bavaria and fourth highest in Germany, in Munich was finished in 1968 after plans of Sebastian Rosenthal. After the most recent antenna refurbishment in 2005 it tops out at more than 291 meters. Three observation decks at 185, 189 and 192 meters and a revolving restaurant at 181 meters offer a panorama view of Munich and the Alps. Since 2004 the tower is home to the Rockmuseum Munich.
The model consists of 436 parts and represents the tower roughly in 1:650. Images are rendered with Bluerender.

Coventry has had three cathedrals. The first was St. Mary's, a monastic building of which only a few ruins of which remain. The second was St Michael's, a 14th century Gothic cathedral, which remains a ruined shell after it was bombed. The third is the new St Michael's Cathedral, built after the destruction of the former and a celebration of 20th century architecture.
The second St Michael's Cathedral was bombed almost to destruction by the German Luftwaffe during the Coventry Blitz of 14 November 1940. Only the tower, spire, the outer wall and the bronze effigy and tomb of its first bishop, the wonderfully named Huyshe Wolcott Yeatman-Biggs, survived. The ruins of this older cathedral remain hallowed ground and are Grade I listed. Following the bombing of the cathedral in, the words "Father Forgive" were inscribed on the wall behind the altar of the ruined building.
The current St Michael's Cathedral, built next to the remains of the old, was designed by Sir Basil Spence and Arup, built by John Laing and is also a Grade I listed building. Spence was selected for the work was a result of a competition to find an architect for the new Cathedral. He insisted that the old cathedral it should be kept in ruins as a garden of remembrance and that the new cathedral should be built alongside forming one church. The foundation stone of the new cathedral was laid by Queen Elizabeth II on 23 March 1956. The cathedral was consecrated on 25 May 1962.
The interior is notable for its huge tapestry of Christ, designed by Graham Sutherland, the emotive sculpture of the Mater Dolorosa by John Bridgeman and the Baptistry windows by John Piper, of abstract design that occupies the full height of the bowed baptistery, which comprises 195 panes, ranging from white to deep colours. Also worthy of note is the Great West Window known as the Screen of Saints and Angels, engraved directly onto the screen in expressionist style by John Hutton. The foundation stone, the ten stone panels inset into the walls of the cathedral called the Tablets of the Word, and the baptismal font were designed and carved by the émigré German letter carver Ralph Beyer.
The Charred Cross and the Cross of Nails were created after the cathedral was bombed during the Coventry Blitz of the Second World War. The cathedral stonemason, Jock Forbes, saw two wooden beams lying in the shape of a cross and tied them together. A replica of the Charred Cross built in 1964 has replaced the original in the ruins of the old cathedral on an altar of rubble. The original is now kept on the stairs linking the cathedral with St. Michael's Hall below.
The Cross of Nails was made of three nails from the roof truss of the old cathedral by Provost Richard Howard. It was later transferred to the new cathedral, where it sits in the centre of the altar cross. It has become a symbol of peace and reconciliation across the world. There are over 160 Cross of Nails Centres all over the world, all of them bearing a cross made of three nails from the ruins, similar to the original one. They are co-ordinated by the International Centre for Reconciliation.
One of the crosses made of nails from the old cathedral was donated to the Kaiser Wilhelm Memorial Church in Berlin, which was destroyed by Allied bombing and is also kept as a ruin alongside a newer building. A replica of the cross of nails was also donated to the Chapel of Reconciliation (Kapelle der Versöhnung) which forms part of the Berlin Wall Memorial. A copy of the Stalingrad Madonna by Kurt Reuber that was drawn in 1942 in Stalingrad (now Volgograd) is shown in the cathedrals of all three cities (Berlin, Coventry and Volgograd) as a sign of the reconciliation of the three countries that were once enemies.
A medieval cross of nails has also been carried on board all British warships who subsequently bear the name HMS Coventry. The cross of nails was on board the Type 42 destroyer Coventry when she was sunk by enemy action in the Falklands War. The cross was salvaged by Royal Navy divers, and presented to Coventry Cathedral by the ship's Captain and colleagues. The cross was subsequently presented first to the next Coventry in 1988 until she was decommissioned in 2001, and then to HMS Diamond, which is affiliated to Coventry, during her commissioning ceremony on 6 May 2011.
