WACA (AM)
WACA is a radio station broadcasting on 1540 kHz in the mediumwave AM band. It is a Spanish language news and talk station broadcasting as Radio America. Its transmitter is located in Wheaton, Maryland and it serves the Washington, D.C. metropolitan area. WACA has a daytime transmitter power of 5,000 watts, reaching as far north as Frederick County in Maryland and as far south as Stafford and Prince William Counties in Virginia. WACA's signal is also available (via a special SCA receiver) on a subcarrier of WASH.
Owner
Alejandro Carrasco is the station's owner-operator. A native of the Dominican Republic, he came to the United States in the 1970s. While attending Montgomery College in 1979, he worked as a DJ at student parties and master of ceremonies at weddings. The news staff at 1540 AM (then Radio Mundo, WMDO) discovered him at a wedding, and hired him as an anchor in 1983. Carrasco later moved to Radio Borinquen (now Radio Viva, WILC 900 AM in Laurel), rising to be general manager, and then returned to WACA to begin a 30-minute morning show, Calentando la Mañana (Heating Up the Morning) in 1987. Carrasco leased WACA and its transmitter in 1997, and then bought the station when the lease expired in 2000, naming it "Radio America."
Lake
A lake is an area of variable size filled with water, localized in a basin, that is surrounded by land, apart from any river or other outlet that serves to feed or drain the lake. Lakes lie on land and are not part of the ocean (except for sea lochs in Scotland and Ireland), and therefore are distinct from lagoons, and are also larger and deeper than ponds, though there are no official or scientific definitions. Lakes can be contrasted with rivers or streams, which are usually flowing. However most lakes are fed and drained by rivers and streams.
Natural lakes are generally found in mountainous areas, rift zones, and areas with ongoing glaciation. Other lakes are found in endorheic basins or along the courses of mature rivers. In some parts of the world there are many lakes because of chaotic drainage patterns left over from the last Ice Age. All lakes are temporary over geologic time scales, as they will slowly fill in with sediments or spill out of the basin containing them.
Many lakes are artificial and are constructed for industrial or agricultural use, for hydro-electric power generation or domestic water supply, or for aesthetic or recreational purposes.

You look for the living among the dead? Ignoring what
So many prophets & so many righteous man said. What
They said. Yet you still look for the living among the

Mistaking the messenger for his message, mistaking the
Prophet for whom he represents, mistaking the king for
The King of all Kings, mistaking the singer for the
One he sings.

You look for the living among the dead?
Mistaking what so many prophets & so many righteous
Man said. What they said. Yet you still look for the
Living among the dead.

What does it take to make a blind man see? A burning
Bush to explode in his face, before he finally sees
The Father's grace.
Why do you look for the living among the dead? Why do
You look for the living among the dead? Your Praising

Among the dead. Tell me what them do?

Is going to thirst roll away stone. A fool is going to
