New today from the Century:

• 9/11 in the Century archives: Rowan Williams, Barbara Brown Taylor, Miroslav Volf, others (subscribers only)
• I consider the upcoming banner weekend for civil religion: "Variations on this headline
  are all over: 'Bloomberg bans clergy from 9/11 ceremony but Ground Zero
  mosque OK.' A lot of observers see this as an ironic or hypocritical
  inconsistency on the mayor's part. It isn't."
• Steve Vineberg reviews the new documentary about horse trainer Buck Brannaman
• A poem about baptism by Jane Zwart

Links from elsewhere:

• America's most prolific eulogist remembers 9/11
• Google finally releases data on its (massive) electricity usage
