At the window of tomorrow
I saw many a yesteryear.
It was easy to see where we’d come
In the intervening time–
How we’d grown, and struggled, and triumphed
Beyond the yesteryear was tomorrow’s future
It wasn’t much different than today
But a little more was added
–A little more light–
And in this way, we came to transcend
And the yesteryears moved up slowly
And the tomorrows moved down gradually
They joined in the middle and spun around each other

Sancaklar Mosque was built in Büyükçekmece, a suburb of Istanbul, Turkey, by architect Emre Arolat. Finished in 2012, it was awarded the Religious Building of the Year Award for 2015 by
ArchDaily.
It is hard to find a religious experience in architecture these days.

That is not because religion has disappeared from our society—far from it—but because the means of its delivery are now more akin to theatrical presentations than to stories told in stone around sermons pronounced in spirit-evoking spaces.
One of the few major religions that still emphasizes the communal and real experience of a larger force expressed in built form, and that has the means to translate its needs into structures, is Islam.
In recent years, some of the best religious designs I have seen have been those for mosques, and a highlight of such work to me is the Sancaklar Mosque on the outskirts of Istanbul.

Scientists have found that replacing one of DNA’s four letters at a key spot in the genome shifts a particular gene’s activity and leads to fairer hair.
Not only does the work provide a molecular basis for flaxen locks, but it also demonstrates how changes in segments of DNA that control genes, not just changes in genes themselves, are important to what an organism looks like.
