A shrine is a holy or sacred place.

The Shrine Auditorium is a landmark large-event venue in Los Angeles, California. It is also the headquarters of the Al Malaikah Temple, a division of the Shriners. It was designated a Los Angeles Historic-Cultural Monument (No. 139) in 1975.
Opened in 1926, the current Shrine Auditorium replaced an earlier 1906 Al Malaikah Temple which had been destroyed by a fire on January 11, 1920. The fire gutted the original building in just 30 minutes, and nearly killed six firefighters in the process. The new auditorium was designed in the Moorish Revival style by San Francisco-based theater architect G. Albert Lansburgh, with local architects John C. Austin and A. M. Edelman associated. When built, the auditorium could hold 1,200 people on stage and seat an audience of 6,442. An engineer who consulted on the project said that the steel truss supporting the balcony was the largest ever constructed.
In 2002, the auditorium underwent a $15 million renovation that upgraded the stage with state-of-the-art lighting and rigging systems, and included new roofing and air conditioning for both the Auditorium and Expo Center, modernized concession stands, additional restrooms, repainting of the Expo Center, and a new performance plaza and parking garage. The entire complex follows a Moroccan architectural motif.
"The Shrine" is the 86th of the science fiction television series Stargate Atlantis and is the sixth episode in its fifth season. The episode is also the 300th produced episode in the overall Stargate franchise. The episode first aired on August 22, 2008 on the Sci Fi Channel in the United States, and subsequently aired on October 23 on Sky1 in the United Kingdom. The episode was nominated for a Nebula Award, and a further four Leo Awards.
The episode focuses on Dr. Rodney McKay, who has been infected with a disease known as "Second Childhood", which is considered the Pegasus equivalent of fast on-set Alzheimer's disease, where he quickly reverts to a childlike state. The only way for the team to save him is to send him to a shrine on the planet of Talus, which has since turned into a Wraith outpost.
Uh, okay now fuck all this bullshit, I’m fresh off a full clip
Counting this fucking money, did that with no scholarship
I guess what that money taught, so fuck what you niggas thought
My bitch got a porsche truck, like look what that pussy parked
Got that hustler demeanor, fresh and I’m out that two seater
Got to sleep with the reaper, and watch out for them people
Cause the devil be lurkin’, all these pistols are dirty
All my niggas is riders, their clips extended with thirty
I woke up early this morning, thanked the lord I’m alive
Kissed my daughter then told my lady I’m back on the grind
Gotta do it for?, that’s my daily remind
Fuck these bitches, the money, power, respect on my mind
It ain’t no love for the week, ain’t no top on the jeep
Tell them haters I’m over sea’s, I’ll be back in a week
I’m trying to get richer than trump, a couple million for lunch
I need the cover of forbes with we the best on the front
I’m going main, nigga kiss my ass
These niggas be stealing my flow and all, ain’t even mad
I swear my flow is dope as coke, come get your bag
Just bought that aston martin, ymmm’, that fucker fast
Nigga started with a dollar and a dream, show me the cream
All about that profit piling, partner that’s by any means
That fifty-thousand in my pocket busting out the seams
Hopping out that coupe, that roof go missing bitch like bada-bing
Knock knock, bang bang, ever since back then they wanna know who I be
H double-o-d, was running the streets since I was like seventeen
I put it on mama, always dreamed of having a lamborghin’
Them niggas was hating, still I was skating in that?
Oh I mean?
It’s money over bitches, what my niggas claim
Probably in the whip with my little spanish thing
All day, in the back of the back number nine j’s
I be balling, small thing know what I mean?
I say what’s up with them bitches? molly, weed, and some liquor
I’m the type of nigga do you first and then your sister
I’m a savage, with fifty karats
Came from the bottom of the barrel, to living lavish
Blood on my sneakers, brother’s keeper I see dead people
‘bout them figures, squeeze them triggers I’m just soul seeking
I think you pussy, I can smell it on you loud and clear
And since my daddy left me young, I ran up out of fear
And when it come down to my family, bitch I die for them
Blow that chopper through your chest to show you shit is real
