Lost (Faith Hill song)
"Lost" is a song written by Mitch Allan and Kara DioGuardi and was recorded by American country music singer Faith Hill. It was released in June 2007 as the first single from her compilation album The Hits.
The week after its release, it made the biggest debut at #61 on the US Hot 100 Singles Chart. Despite this, the song struggled on the country charts being unable to reach the top 30, in part because "I Need You", a top-10 duet with Tim McGraw from McGraw's Let It Go, was concurrently active on the charts. Even though without a music video, the song peaked at #32 on that chart. Released to AC radio, it has been a moderate hit reaching #11 and spending 21 weeks on chart. It also reached #40 on the 2008 Billboard Year End Hot Adult Contemporary Songs chart.

Mark (dinghy)
The Mark is a single-hander class of small sailing dinghy. The design probably first appeared in the 1960s, at about the same time as the Laser, but never took off as a popular racing class. The Mark is 12 feet (3.7 m) in length, with forward and side buoyancy compartments. A 19 feet (5.8 m) free standing rotating mast stepped far forward in the front buoyancy compartment supports a mainsail.
Gospel of Mark
The Gospel According to Mark (Greek: τὸ κατὰ Μᾶρκον εὐαγγέλιον, to kata Markon euangelion), the second book of the New Testament, is one of the four canonical gospels and the three synoptic gospels. It was traditionally thought to be an epitome (summary) of Matthew, which accounts for its place as the second gospel in the Bible, but most scholars now regard it as the earliest of the gospels. Most modern scholars reject the tradition which ascribes it to Mark the Evangelist, the companion of Peter, and regard it as the work of an unknown author working with various sources including collections of miracle stories, controversy stories, parables, and a passion narrative.
Mark tells of the ministry of Jesus from his baptism by John the Baptist to his death and burial and the discovery of the empty tomb – there is no genealogy or birth narrative, nor, in the original ending at chapter 16, any post-resurrection appearances. It portrays Jesus as a heroic man of action, an exorcist, healer and miracle worker. Jesus is also the Son of God, but he keeps his identity secret, concealing it in parables so that even the disciples fail to understand. All this is in keeping with prophecy, which foretold the fate of the messiah as Suffering Servant. The gospel ends, in its original version, with the discovery of the empty tomb, a promise to meet again in Galilee, and an unheeded instruction to spread the good news of the resurrection.
