Declare the pennies on your eyes - from "Taxman" by the Beatles, released on Revolver, August 5, 1966
Taxman
One, two, three, four
One, two
Let me tell you how it will be
There's one for you, nineteen for me
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Should five percent appear too small
Be thankful I don't take it all
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
(If you drive a car) I'll tax the street
(If you try to sit) I'll tax your seat
(If you get too cold) I'll tax the heat
(If you take a walk) I'll tax your feet
Taxman!
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Don't ask me what I want it for
(Ah, ah, Mr. Wilson)
If you don't want to pay some more
(Ah, ah, Mr. Heath)
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
Now my advice for those who die (taxman)
Declare the pennies on your eyes (taxman)
'Cause I'm the taxman
Yeah, I'm the taxman
And you're working for no one but me (taxman)

Western Meadowlark (Sturnella neglecta)
In full breeding plumage and singing, this male is getting ready for nesting.
“The buoyant, flutelike melody of the Western Meadowlark ringing out across a field can brighten anyone’s day. Meadowlarks are often more easily heard than seen, unless you spot a male singing from a fence post. This colorful member of the blackbird family flashes a vibrant yellow breast crossed by a distinctive, black, V-shaped band. Look and listen for these stout ground feeders in grasslands, meadows, pastures, and along marsh edges throughout the West and Midwest, where flocks strut and feed on seeds and insects….. The nest of the Western Meadowlark usually is partially covered by a grass roof. It may be completely open, however, or it may have a complete roof and an entrance tunnel several feet long….. The oldest recorded Western Meadowlark was at least 6 years, 6 months old when it was found in Colorado.”

Image above was taken looking up while walking along the Manoa Falls Trail to the waterfall. As you drive to the parking lot for this hiking trail, the foliage drastically changes from tropical beach to full rain forest. We were rained on during the entirety of our hike to the waterfall but not too much due to all the overhead canopy blocking the rain. It was a somewhat surreal experience...knowing that I was on the island of Oahu in Hawaii but yet experiencing a tropical rain forest. Definitely an experience that will not be soon forgotten!

Let me immediately declare that I'm not an ornothologist. I think this might be an Andean Eagle but won't be shocked if I'm wrong, although it might necessitate a change of title if it's actually a Peruvian Sparrow! ;-)
I took this in a small village in Colca Canyon, Peru. The village was noteworthy because it seemed much more affluent that the surrounding villages. The roads were new and the buildings much nicer. Our guide (very gently) explained (in a roundabout manner) that a "special" (female) friend of the then President Fujimori lived there...and it seems the President visited often!

I declare February LOVE, romance and beauty month.
Of plumes held captive by bright red ribbon.
For Valentine, everything is wrapped with shiny red ribbon. Red, the colour of passion, red the colour most commonly associated with love, followed at a great distance by pink.
It the symbolic colour of the heart and the red rose, is closely associated with romantic love or courtly love and Saint Valentine's Day.
Lead and enjoy a good life, do and say things that enrich... and do not forget to tell the people close to you, how much you love them!

Minneriya National Park is a national park in North Central Province of Sri Lanka. The area was designated as a national park on 12 August 1997, having been originally declared as a wildlife sanctuary in 1938. The reason for declaring the area as protected is to protect the catchment of Minneriya tank and the wildlife of the surrounding area. The tank is of historical importance, having been built by King Mahasen in third century AD. The park is a dry season feeding ground for the elephant population dwelling in forests of Matale, Polonnaruwa, and Trincomalee districts. The park earned revenue of Rs. 10.7 millions in the six months ending in August 2009. Along with Kaudulla and Girithale, Minneriya forms one of the 70 Important Bird Areas (IBAs) of Sri Lanka. The park is situated 182 kilometres (113 mi) from Colombo.

i would like to share a story about the broken window, which is written by Ivory Illusion, hope you like it as much as i do.:D
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The Broken Window
As the sun turned orangey gold declaring the end of a tiring day, Imran knew the hard work of this day has ended. He grabbed the water pot beside him and sat on the old tree trunk drinking, facing the slowly fading sun. From behind him came his younger sister Abida, looking at him with her wide green eyes. Her smile lifted all the exhaustion he felt. She sat beside him and gazed at the horizon where the sun was going to vanish into in a little while. Both brother and sister were thinking of the same thing but did not speak to each other. As if they were connected by telepathy. Tears began to rundown Abeda’s cheeks silently then she looked at Imran who tried so hard to hide his feelings from her. He hugged her and kissed her forehead as she continued crying.
“I can’t believe that my little sister has grown up so quickly” Imran said bitterly swallowing his pain and added “I promise you that I will make you the best wedding in the village”
“No… you don’t have to do than, look at yourself. You don’t eat well; don’t have enough sleep and barely rest. I can’t let you do that to yourself for… for me!”
“Don’t worry about me dear, I will be alright, I just want father to be resting in piece knowing that I am taking good care of you and mother”
“He knows that you are doing your best, please Imran don’t push yourself so hard”
“I promised I will make you the best wedding and that is what you’ll get so be happy about it and show me your lovely smile, come one where is it, let me see it.”
She looked at him with her teary eyes and smiled when all of a sudden their brotherly moment was interrupted by their mother’s cry calling Imran. He ran to her in the stable and the old women said in a worried tone as she saw him “The calf, the black calf ran to the woods!”
“Oh no! I have to go get it.”
“Don’t go now! It’s getting dark” said the worried mother.
“Yes, the sun will be gone in minutes, wait till the morning” Added Abeda.
“I can’t risk it, it is your husband’s gift, I have to get it back” Imran replied while running to the woods as fast as he could, vanishing into darkness in front of his worried mother and sister.
In the woods, Imran stopped to catch his breath, and found himself surrounded completely by long trees. It was dark, but only little sunlight made him make him was through the jungle, never the less he still wanted to find that calf no matter what. He walked hoping to spot the calf soon before night falls. But, there was no sign of it anywhere.
Suddenly, behind the bushes he thought he saw it jumping and running away taking a visible clear route on the ground which he followed as fast as possible. Till he reached a wall of long bushes blocking his sight, through it was the only way that the calf could go, it was the end of that route. He quickly crossed through it and found himself standing in front of a huge abandoned old mansion and a broken window facing him painted in light blue. Things were much visible in the mansion aria because he was out of the woods. He looked at the sky and saw that there would be no way for him to return home at this hour because he was practically lost in a place he never knew existed.
He went to check the place so he can find a room to spend the night in away from the cold night wind. The bricks in the wall were clearly visible behind the pealed old yellow paint and bare thin branches. Right in front of the window a tidy raw of wild flowers grew. He could barely see the colors; they were mostly red and orange. They made him feel like they were taken care of by a human from the way they were arraigned.
Imran approached the broken window trying to look inside the house. Something about this discovery bewitched him, he forgot about the calf and all of his worries. As his foot rested on the damp soil beneath him, he saw a shimmering light flickering for a moment lighting the dark room. He felt fear yet, wanted to know what the cause of that bright light was.
He got closer to the window, placed both hands on each side of the wall and looked carefully into the room. As he did, a great light struck the whole place swallowing him into the unknown.
Imran struggled to open his heavy eyelids, his body so weak, surrendering to the spellbinding enchanting angelic voice singing a soft lullaby above his head. He forced himself to open his eyes, and what he saw was way beyond what he imagined.
A woman or an angel, he no longer could tell, sat beside him on the edge of a wide silk bed. Her beauty was indescribable; she was the most beautiful woman his eyes have ever laid sight on. With skin like milk, hair as black as nigh, and eyes as light and transparent as fine agate, he no longer was able to speak, nor move. Afraid if he did he will disturb this magical being. He laid there unable to turn his eyes away from her face, studying its every little detail as she moved her lips to sing. He though he was dead in paradise, enjoying his reward for his hard life.
The woman knew he was finally awake and stopped singing. She looked at him with a light smile. He still was unable to speak, not because he physically couldn’t, but because he had no words to say. She swiftly tossed her long hair that rested on her chest behind her and stood up facing him. The young man could no longer think, he was totally overtaken buy her powerful gaze.
“You must be wondering how you ended up here?” the woman coquettishly said.
She moved in the room, walking back and forth beside the bed. Rolling the end of a lock of her hair on her finger and said “You are not dead.”
The farmer lifted his body and asked “If I am not dead then where am I?”
“You are at the same place you came to.”
“You mean the abandoned mansion? But that is impossible, I am sure no one was there!”
“How are you so sure?”
“Because I remember very well that the last thing I did was looking through the glass in to one of the rooms and nothing was there!”
“Oh, you mean you peeping into my room, this room.”
“Peeping?” Imran wondered loudly, and tried to remember, he was so sure nothing was there. It was nothing like this room. “That is not true, because I was pretty sure that nothing was in it!”
‘Oh’ she exclaimed taking the peacock feather fan placed on the side table beside the bed and continued as she swayed the fan near her beautiful face “There was… you simply was not able to see it.”
“What? What do you mean?”
“You have awakened me from my long slumber.”
“Awakened you?”
“You seem not to understand anything of this yet do you?”
“What should I understand? Who are you and what did you do to me?” He said as he moved to stand.
“You are here to break the window!”
“What are you talking bout? I have to go, please!”
The mysterious woman smiled and slowly walked back to him, stood so close, rested her right hand on Imran’s chest. He looked at her hand then, at her face. He was literally paralyzed. She looked directly into his eyes and whispered “I told you…” she delicately swiped the feathers of the fan on his face “you have to brake the window” then gently pushed him, leaving him lying on his back, sailing into the dream land.
OK folks ... here we go! I hereby declare Frozen Lighthouse Season '09 OPEN!
Taken today in Grand Haven, MI ... about 4:15 pm.
A heavy cloud bank swallowed the sun so the actual sunset (@5:09) was less than spectacular ... but I think I got some pretty snazzy pictures between 4 and 4:30.
There is WONDERFUL ice out there right now (thanks to the strong (50-60mph) winds of the past week). If you live in West Michigan and you like frozen lighthouses ... head on out!

The heavens blaze with silent light,
A canvas stretched through endless night.
Each star, a spark of boundless flame,
Declares the glory of His name.
For heaven and earth in chorus raise
A hymn of awe, a song of praise.
And hearts that see, and ears that hear,
Will feel their Maker drawing near.
...Will declare
That Your love is everywhere.
The fields will exalt,
Seas resound.
Hear the trees’ joyful cry
Praising You, and so will I.
A new song I’ll sing,
Lord, I will glorify and bless Your holy name!

Déclarée patrimoine mondial de l’UNESCO
La Lonja est un des édifices caractéristiques de la ville tout en étant un des plus célèbres monuments du gothique civil que l’on peut trouver en Europe. Il a été classé Monument historique artistique de caractère national depuis le 4 juin 1931 et a été déclaré Patrimoine de l’Humanité par l'UNESCO le 5 décembre 1996. La «Lonja de Mercaderes» (Halle des Marchands) est située au centre de la ville – en face du Marché central et du temple des Santos Juanes – et occupe une surface rectangulaire dont la superficie est d’environ 1990 mètres carrés. A la fin du XIIIe siècle, l'ancienne Lonja devient insuffisante face à la prospérité de la ville, ce pour quoi il fut décidé de commencer la construction d’une nouvelle Lonja en 1469. La première pierre est posée en 1492, quoique les travaux débutent seulement un an plus tard. La figure principale intervenant dans la construction fut Pere Compte, habitant de Valence, à la fois ingénieur et architecte. La Lonja comprend trois corps de bâtiment clairement différenciés et un jardin ou «patio d'orangers». Le Salon à colonnes ou Salle de Commerce est divisé en trois nefs longitudinales et cinq transversales, en fonction des huit colonnes centrales supportant les voûtes. Sa hauteur de 17,40 mètres transmet une image singulière et monumentale des colonnes. Dans cette salle fut installée la «Taula de Canvis», banque de commerce instituée en 1407 par le Conseil municipal de la Ville et qui obtint un grand prestige du fait de sa solvabilité et du volume élevé des opérations bancaires. Aujourd’hui, la «Taula» ou «Mesa» (table) où s'effectuaient les transactions commerciales, ainsi que la 1re Lettre de change connue en Espagne, se trouvent aux Archives municipales de Valence. Le Torreón (grosse tour) (deuxième corps du bâtiment): au rez-de-chaussée se trouvait la chapelle dédiée à l’Immaculée Conception, tandis que les premiers et deuxièmes étages faisaient office de prisons pour les marchands mauvais payeurs.

Alligator photographed in a national preserve 45 minutes from my home. I have no idea of its length. The many reflections and color in the water were created by plants growing by the water. It appears I have a visiting dragonfly on its back.
The American alligator (Alligator mississippiensis), sometimes referred to colloquially as a gator or common alligator, is a large crocodilian reptile endemic to the Southeastern United States. It is one of two living species in the genus Alligator within the family Alligatoridae.
Adult male American alligators measure 11.2 to 15.1 ft in length, and can weigh up to (999 lb). Females are smaller, measuring (8.5 to 9.8 ft) in length.
The American alligator inhabits freshwater wetlands, such as marshes and cypress swamps from Texas to southeastern and coastal North Carolina.
American alligators are apex predators and consume fish, amphibians, reptiles, birds, and mammals. Hatchlings feed mostly on invertebrates.
They play an important role as ecosystem engineers in wetland ecosystems through the creation of alligator holes, which provide both wet and dry habitats for other organisms.
Throughout the year, in particular during the breeding season, American alligators bellow to declare territory and locate suitable mates. Male American alligators use infrasound to attract females.
The conservation status of the American alligator is listed as least concern by the International Union for Conservation of Nature.
Historically, hunting had decimated their population, and the American alligator was listed as an endangered species by the Endangered Species Act of 1973.
Subsequent conservation efforts have allowed their numbers to increase and the species was removed from endangered status in 1987. The species is the official state reptile of three states: Florida, Louisiana, and Mississippi.
BIBLICAL CONTEXT: 1 Corinthians 15:50-58 NIV
(from biblegateway.com)
50 I declare to you, brothers and sisters, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God, nor does the perishable inherit the imperishable. 51 Listen, I tell you a mystery: We will not all sleep, but we will all be changed— 52 in a flash, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet. For the trumpet will sound, the dead will be raised imperishable, and we will be changed. 53 For the perishable must clothe itself with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality. 54 When the perishable has been clothed with the imperishable, and the mortal with immortality, then the saying that is written will come true: “Death has been swallowed up in victory.”
55 “Where, O death, is your victory?
Where, O death, is your sting?”
56 The sting of death is sin, and the power of sin is the law. 57 But thanks be to God! He gives us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.
58 Therefore, my dear brothers and sisters, stand firm. Let nothing move you. Always give yourselves fully to the work of the Lord, because you know that your labor in the Lord is not in vain.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!

General Hux declares in a speech to the First Order assembled at Starkiller Base that they are there to witness the end of the New Republic - the government that supports the Resistance. The massive superweapon housed within the planet itself is fired and the blast destroys the entire Hosnian system. The galactic senate and the New Republic starfleet is destroyed.

Love carries her on angel wings
That rise above the bonds of earth
Unparalleled in beauty
Her love declares her worth
A gentle touch of her feathered wing
Her beauty makes the sunshine sing
A quickening kiss, a longing look
She drifts away like morning mist
On angel wing she rises.
I kinda liked the symbolism of the lighthouse, and its association with saving lives, warning sailors of danger, with the seeming appearance of the angel wings in this shot, To be honest, I didn't see the wings till I was processing the shot. (I was lying on the ground to take this.) I hope you can see the wings. This is our second trip to the Musquash Head Light. The first time we went it was super foggy, and the light was barely visible at times even when standing right next to it. The fog horn blew continuously that day. Today, was clear, and sunny, with a healthy dose of decorative clouds. We also visited the black sand beach, called, oddly enough, "Black Beach" nearby.
MY CHERIE AMOUR… TULIPS
I declare February LOVE , romance and beauty month.
We NEED it!
Saw this mixed bouquet, spotted a few of these beauties amongst other Spring flowers.
Tulips, of the frayed/frazzled variety. Because of the warmth of the lights, they opened and revealed all. Ruffled skirts, ready for love? So very expressive.
I don't talk to flowers, they talk to me and I gladly listen with my eyes!LOL
Yes, in full communication again.
Hope this makes you smile again, have a great day and thanx for your visit, so very much appreciated, Magda, (*_*)

their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.
Psalms 19:1-6

Praise the Lord Ye heavens adore him
Praise him angels in the height
Sun and moon, rejoice before him
Praise him, all ye stars of light
Praise the Lord for he hath spoken
Worlds his mighty voice obeyed
Laws which never shall be broken
For their guidance he hath made
* All creation join the song of praise
Let every tongue declare His mighty ways
And we will sing of Your goodness and mercy all of our days
Praise the Lord for he is glorious
Never shall his promise fail
God hath made his saints victorious
Sin and death shall not prevail
Glory! Glory! All glory to You Lord! (4X)
Praise the God of our salvation
Hosts on high, his power proclaim
Heaven and earth, and all creation
Laud and magnify his Name
I John 1:5 "This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all."
Inspired by its Catholic and Lasallian heritage, Lewis University (seen in the upper portion of the photograph above along with the Lewis University Airport) offers a values-centered curriculum, rich in the Mission values of knowledge, fidelity, wisdom, and justice and guided by the spirit of association which fosters community in all teaching, learning and service. Founded in 1932 under the direction of the Chicago Archdiocese and Bishop Bernard J. Sheil, Lewis began as the Holy Name Technical School, a school for boys which opened with 15 students. The school was established on a campus of 170 acres of farmland that was donated to the archdiocese by Michael and Frances Fitzpatrick of Lockport, Illinois. During these early days, aviation technology courses were chosen as the special emphasis of instruction, becoming the origin of today’s highly regarded College of Aviation, Science and Technology. The school was incorporated in 1934 under the name Lewis Holy Name Technical School. In 1935, it became Lewis Holy Name School of Aeronautics, a name which is engraved in stone on the building now known as the Oremus Fine Arts Center.
In the lower portion of the photograph is the Prairie Bluff Golf Course featuring an 18-hole championship designed course decorated with water, prairie grass and manicured bent grass fairways covering 230 acres.

BIBLICAL CONTEXT: 1 Psalm 19:1-6 NIV
(from biblegateway.com)
1 The heavens declare the glory of God;
the skies proclaim the work of his hands.
2 Day after day they pour forth speech;
night after night they reveal knowledge.
3 They have no speech, they use no words;
no sound is heard from them.
4 Yet their voice[b] goes out into all the earth,
their words to the ends of the world.
In the heavens God has pitched a tent for the sun.
5 It is like a bridegroom coming out of his chamber,
like a champion rejoicing to run his course.
6 It rises at one end of the heavens
and makes its circuit to the other;
nothing is deprived of its warmth.

5 MORE THINGS YOU SHOULD KNOW:
1. Like it or not, we are ALL sinners: As the Scriptures say, “No one is righteous—not even one. No one is truly wise; no one is seeking God. All have turned away; all have become useless. No one does good, not a single one.” (Romans 3:10-12 NLT)
2. The punishment for sin is death: When Adam sinned, sin entered the world. Adam’s sin brought death, so death spread to everyone, for everyone sinned. (Romans 5:12 NLT)
3. Jesus is our only hope: But God showed his great love for us by sending Christ to die for us while we were still sinners. (Romans 5:8 NLT) For the wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life through Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 6:23 NLT)
4. SALVATION is by GRACE through FAITH in JESUS: God saved you by his grace when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God. Salvation is not a reward for the good things we have done, so none of us can boast about it. For we are God’s masterpiece. He has created us anew in Christ Jesus, so we can do the good things he planned for us long ago. (Ephesians 2:8-10 NLT)
5. Accept Jesus and receive eternal life: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. (Romans 10:9 NLT) But to all who believed him and accepted him, he gave the right to become children of God. (John 1:12 NLT) And this is what God has testified: He has given us eternal life, and this life is in his Son. Whoever has the Son has life; whoever does not have God’s Son does not have life. (1 John 5:11-12 NLT)
Read the Bible for yourself. Allow the Lord to speak to you through his Word. YOUR ETERNITY IS AT STAKE!
