Melete
In Greek mythology, Melete /ˈmɛlᵻtiː/ (Μελέτη) was one of the three original (Boeotian) muses before the Nine Olympian Muses were founded. Her sisters were Aoide and Mneme. She was the muse of thought and meditation. Melete literally means "ponder" and "contemplation" in Greek.
According to Pausanias in the later 2nd century AD, there were three original Muses: Aoidē ("song" or "voice"), Meletē ("practice" or "occasion"), and Mnēmē ("memory"). Together, these three form the complete picture of the preconditions of poetic art in cult practice. In Delphi three Muses were worshipped as well, but with other names: Nētē, Mesē, and Hypatē, which are the names of the three chords of the ancient musical instrument, the lyre. Alternatively they were called Cēphisso, Apollonis, and Borysthenis, whose names characterise them as daughters of Apollo. In later tradition, four Muses were recognized: Thelxinoē, Aoedē, Archē, and Meletē, said to be daughters of Zeus and Plusia (or of Uranus).

56 Melete
56 Melete (/ˈmɛlᵻtiː/ MEL-i-tee) is a large and dark main belt asteroid. It is a rather unusual P-type asteroid, probably composed of organic rich silicates, carbon and anhydrous silicates, with possible internal water ice.
Melete was discovered by Hermann Goldschmidt from his balcony in Paris, on September 9, 1857. It orbit was computed by E. Schubert, who named it after Melete, the Muse of meditation in Greek mythology. It was originally confused for 41 Daphne before it was confirmed not to be by its second sighting on August 27, 1871. In 1861, the brightness of 56 Melete was shown to vary by German astronomer Friedrich Tietjen.
To date, two stellar occultations by Melete have been observed successfully (in 1997 and again in 2002).
Melete has been studied by radar.Photometric observations of this asteroid at the Palmer Divide Observatory in Colorado Springs, Colorado in 2007 gave a light curve with a period of 18.151 ± 0.002 hours and a brightness variation of 0.15 ± 0.02 in magnitude. This result is in agreement with a period of 18.1 hours independently reported in 1993 and 2007.

30 Avril 75
by: Molodoi30 avril 75
L'année du tigre dingue
Personne vraiment ne saura
C'que ça représente pour toi
Tous les chapeaux côniques
La fuite, la panique
Cette date, n'oublie pas
Le jour où Saïgon tomba
30 avril 75
Après 30 années de guerre
Sous un ciel de zinc
Tu as du mordre la terre
La honte, la folie
Sur les routes tu as fuis
Cette date, n'oublie pas
Le jour où Saïgon tomba
Oh oh oh oh... oh oh oh oh...
30 avril 75...
Cet avril est trop cruel
Pour Saïgon la belle
Tu as retourné ton arme
Contre ta tempe et sans larmes
Le drapeau, trois bandes rouges
Sur fond jaune impérial
Ne flottes plus sur la ville
Ce jour là, 30 avril
Si tous tes camarades
Sont partis dans la jungle
Tes enfants et ta femme
Sont partis dans les vagues
15 années de prison,
De ré-éducation
N'ont pas suffit à tuer
L'espoir de liberté...
Không bao già quên tu' do
Không bao già quên Thuyên Nhân
Không bao già quên Quê Hudng
Không bao già quên Sa
Và Khàng Chiên
Và Nhân Quyên
Và Giâi Phòng
Và Thudng
Và Quê Me
Va Tô Tiên
Và Lòng Tin
Và Gia D
