Psalm 91
He who dwells in the secret place of the Most High
Shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty.
2I will say of the Lord, “He is my refuge and my fortress;
My God, in Him I will trust.”
3Surely He shall deliver you from the snare of the fowler
And from the perilous pestilence.
4He shall cover you with His feathers,
And under His wings you shall take refuge;
His truth shall be your shield and buckler.
5You shall not be afraid of the terror by night,
Nor of the arrow that flies by day,
6Nor of the pestilence that walks in darkness,
Nor of the destruction that lays waste at noonday.
7A thousand may fall at your side,
And ten thousand at your right hand;
But it shall not come near you.
8Only with your eyes shall you look,
And see the reward of the wicked.
9Because you have made the Lord, who is my refuge,
Even the Most High, your dwelling place,
10No evil shall befall you,
Nor shall any plague come near your dwelling;
11For He shall give His angels charge over you,
To keep you in all your ways.
12In their hands they shall bear you up,
Lest you dash your foot against a stone.
13You shall tread upon the lion and the cobra,
The young lion and the serpent you shall trample underfoot.
14“Because he has set his love upon Me, therefore I will deliver him;
I will set him on high, because he has known My name.
15He shall call upon Me, and I will answer him;
I will be with him in trouble;
I will deliver him and honor him.
16With long life I will satisfy him,
And show him My salvation.”
Dipper - Cinclus Cinclus

Dippers are members of the genus Cinclus in the bird family Cinclidae, named for their bobbing or dipping movements. They are unique among passerines for their ability to dive and swim underwater.
They have a characteristic bobbing motion when perched beside the water, giving them their name. While under water, they are covered by a thin, silvery film of air, due to small bubbles being trapped on the surface of the plumage.
Dippers are found in suitable freshwater habitats in the highlands of the Americas, Europe and Asia. In Africa they are only found in the Atlas Mountains of Morocco. They inhabit the banks of fast-moving upland rivers with cold, clear waters, though, outside the breeding season, they may visit lake shores and sea coasts.
The high haemoglobin concentration in their blood gives them a capacity to store oxygen greater than that of other birds, allowing them to remain underwater for thirty seconds or more, whilst their basal metabolic rate is approximately one-third slower than typical terrestrial passerines of similar mass. One small population wintering at a hot spring in Suntar-Khayata Mountains of Siberia feeds underwater when air temperatures drop below −55 °C (−67 °F).
Dippers are completely dependent on fast-flowing rivers with clear water, accessible food and secure nest-sites. They may be threatened by anything that affects these needs such as water pollution, acidification and turbidity caused by erosion. River regulation through the creation of dams and reservoirs, as well as channelization, can degrade and destroy dipper habitat.
Dippers are also sometimes hunted or otherwise persecuted by humans for various reasons. The Cyprus race of the white-throated dipper is extinct. In the Atlas Mountains dippers are claimed to have aphrodisiacal properties. In parts of Scotland and Germany, until the beginning of the 20th century, bounties were paid for killing dippers because of a misguided perception that they were detrimental to fish stocks through predation on the eggs and fry of salmonids.

Breve historia de "Temps de Flors"
Un pequeño evento que se celebró en el Salón de Descanso del Ayuntamiento en 1954 se ha convertido en el gran festival internacional de Girona
La historia de Girona, Temps de Flors es también una historia de jóvenes emprendedores que en 1954 decidieron organizar una primera edición de lo que llamaron Concurso Exposición Provincial de Flores en el Salón de Descanso del Teatro Municipal. La buena respuesta y el interés de las personas que visitaron ese espacio entonces les empujó a sacar adelante un evento que se ha convertido en el gran festival internacional de Girona, una actividad que atrae a gente de todo el mundo.
El festival fue creciendo año tras año, tanto en lo que se refiere al espacio que lo acogía como por la implicación, cada vez mayor, de la ciudadanía y el tejido social de la ciudad. Del Salón de Descanso, que ese primer año ya quedó pequeño, se pasó a la Sala de Pergaminos de la Biblioteca Pública y después al Monasterio de Sant Pere de Galligants. Posteriormente, se pasó al convento y al claustro de Sant Domènec y más tarde, ya se empezó a extender por varios patios y jardines del Barri Vell, como la plaza de los Jurados, el claustro de la Catedral o los jardines de la plaza de Narcís Figueras.
La evolución del festival vivió un punto clave en 1979, cuando se organizó por primera vez en nombre de la Asociación de los Amigos de las Flores y de los Jardines. Más adelante, en 1983, se implicó también la Asociación de Amigos de la Girona Antiga, que consiguió la apertura de muchos otros patios y jardines particulares que durante el resto del año permanecían cerrados al público. En 1992, el Ayuntamiento de Girona se implicó definitivamente en la organización. La conjunción de estos hechos supuso un salto cualitativo y cuantitativo determinante para la proyección del festival.
Durante más de seis décadas Rosa Maria Labayen, David Marca y Josep Tarrés mantuvieron el espíritu tradicional de la reconocida muestra floral, el evento que enorgullece a todos los gerundenses y gerundenses. Ellos consiguieron que sea un icono imprescindible de la ciudad y es a quien se debe el verdadero éxito de Girona, Temps de Flors.
A Brief History of Temps de Flors
A small event held in the City Hall's Lounge in 1954 has become Girona's major international festival.
The history of Girona, Temps de Flors is also a story of young entrepreneurs who, in 1954, decided to organize the first edition of what they called the Provincial Flower Exhibition and Competition in the Lounge of the Municipal Theatre. The positive response and interest from visitors encouraged them to develop an event that has become Girona's major international festival, an activity that attracts people from all over the world.
The festival grew year after year, both in terms of the venue and the increasing involvement of the city's citizens and social fabric. From the Lounge, which became too small that first year, it moved to the Parchment Room of the Public Library and later to the Monastery of Sant Pere de Galligants. Later, the festival moved to the convent and cloister of Sant Domènec, and subsequently expanded to various courtyards and gardens in the Barri Vell (Old Quarter), such as Plaça dels Jurats, the Cathedral cloister, and the gardens of Plaça de Narcís Figueras.
The festival's evolution reached a pivotal point in 1979, when it was first organized by the Association of Friends of Flowers and Gardens. Later, in 1983, the Association of Friends of Old Girona also became involved, securing the opening of many other private courtyards and gardens that remained closed to the public for the rest of the year. In 1992, the Girona City Council definitively became involved in the organization. The convergence of these events represented a decisive qualitative and quantitative leap for the festival's growth.
For over six decades, Rosa Maria Labayen, David Marca, and Josep Tarrés maintained the traditional spirit of the renowned flower show, an event that fills all the residents of Girona with pride. They made it an essential icon of the city, and it is thanks to them that Girona, Temps de Flors (Girona Flower Festival) truly succeeds.

“Some birds are not meant to be caged, that's all. Their feathers are too bright, their songs too sweet and wild. So you let them go, or when you open the cage to feed them they somehow fly out past you. And the part of you that knows it was wrong to imprison them in the first place rejoices, but still, the place where you live is that much more drab and empty for their departure.”

ALL THE THINGS YOU ARE – ELLA FITZGERALD
Spring is here at last
my little bird has flown
he stayed throughout Winter for four long months
but now he is fully grown
I have empty nest syndrome
he was a part of my every day
but yesterday standing by the Willow
I saw that he was not far away
I still watch the screen of the CCTV
waiting for him to roost each night
even though I know he's in the gardens
I am hoping he will nest to my delight
selfish of me I suppose although
it has been difficult to let go
I was privileged to watch this tiny wild creature
for as long as I did and at least I know
that he is happy in my gardens
I saw he met a lovely friend
I imagine them snugly in the ivy
that twines the willow around without end
each evening I stand and listen intently
and wish upon a star for signs
that my little Blue Tit is making plans
to raise a family this Spring Time
my little Robin follows me around
singing loudly and reassuring me
that my little Blue Tit is safe and secure
and life goes on quite naturally
I am heartened by this sweet revelation
and turn my attention to the budding trees
the thick evergreen of the twisting ivy
that will remain again this year for a new family
I heard tell that these little birds
can have up to fourteen tiny babies; I'm learning
and how wonderful it will be to look up at the Willow
and see my little Blue Tit's Family Tree emerging.

The drakes of this species are very conspicuous when they raise their white crest they display like a fan. This flashy headgear seems to have two purposes - one to attract females during courtship and second to signal possible danger. They are very attractive but also very shy.
While feeding they dive for fish, aquatic insects, crayfish and snails in both clear and shallow or brackish water. Their thin serrated bills enable them to hold slippery fish securely.

when quality mattered...every dial, every gauge, every switch, every flange, every bracket, every screw, without exception, it all mattered, nothing less than perfection!
Claude M. Cox's original Overland car was developed in the early 1900s by the Standard Wheel Company of Terre Haut, Indiana. The Overland Company was formed in 1903 by Mr. Cox and Charles Minshall but it didn't take off until John North Willys arrived in 1907. Mr. Willys was a New York auto dealer and a major Overland customer. He ordered 500 Overlands and paid a deposit of $10,000. After his product was not delivered, he traveled to Indiana only to find Overland on the point of closure. Wanting to recoup his investment, Willys secured additional credit and reorganized the company. By mid-1908 they were in a position to build a new factory. Production increased and by 1909 the company had moved to Toledo, Ohio. Willys eventually became president of the company.
From 1910 to 1914, the company produced only four-cylinder models and they were all right-hand drive. (The company began using left-hand drive in 1915). In 1914, Overland was the second-largest producer of cars in the US, behind only Ford. While the Model T appealed to the masses, the Overland was an upmarket model selling for approximately twice the cost of a T. The Overland was more spacious, more powerful, and larger than the FOrd and its four-cylinder engine had separately cast cylinder jugs. An electric starter was available as a $125 option in 1914.
Overland built a quality automobile that was advanced for its time. The early models had a removable ignition plug that prevents auto theft.
During the 1920s, Willys-Overland produced the Willys Knight, which was powered by the sleeve valve engine designed by Indiana native Charles Knight. During World War II, Willys produced the Jeep. Several modern Jeep models pay homage to their Overland roots with the name of their top models wearing the 'Overland' nameplate.
