Miecław
Miecław (also Masław, Mojsław and Miesław, ?-1047), in the Latin of chronicler Gallus Anonymus Meczzlavus, was a pincera (cup-bearer) of Duke Mieszko II of Poland, and a rebel who tried to detach himself and Masovia from the Polish state.
Little is known about his early life. Initially he was a cup-bearer of Mieszko II and the governor of Masovia. However, an internal crisis and a pagan reaction led to the exile of Mieszko and rule of Bezprym. This weakened the Piast overlordship over Masovia. Initially, Mieszko's successor, Casimir I did not have enough power to reunite the country and the region succumbed into chaos. The pagan reaction in Masovia was particularly strong and it is assumed that Miecław, having achieved delegated authority in Masovia under Mieszko, simply took advantage of the difficult situation to increase his rights or become independent.
However, Casimir I in 1039 was supported by Henry III, Holy Roman Emperor against the Bohemians and soon afterwards he also concluded an alliance with Kievan Rus. This allowed him to gather enough forces to subdue Miecław. In 1047 he was attacked by the joint forces of Casimir I and Yaroslav I the Wise and was probably killed in a battle on the banks of Vistula.

Baby Won't Ya
by: MC5Oh come on, it's all over, over here
I sat up here in my window lookin' down on the street
A strychnine poison woman, man don't you look so sweet
Well I said come on up and see me sometime
I'm just a drunken sailor but I'm feelin' so fine
I've been out sailin' on the seven seas, baby won't you give it to me? Oh
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talkin' about
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Watching you, it's alright now
For now I see all the sickly, salty swingers standin' on a bathroom floor
Slidin' and glidin' as she passed by my window
She was a female mercenary comin' home from war
The ultimate inflection of the word perfection
I thought I'd drop by to say, "Hi"
Sweetly, serenely, she showed me her gun, baby let's go get high, oh
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Baby won't ya please come here? Baby don't ya have no fear
Baby won't ya scratch my back? Baby don't ya leave me mad
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me be mad
Come on, get down
Oh yeah yeah yeah yeah, well, come on now
I sat down to the matters at hand, tryin' to find a way to beat the heat
Outside my window was a bunch of tipsy gypsys
Dancin' up and down the street
The lovely senorita took me by my hand
She said, "Oh, baby won't you be my man?"
I'll get yours and you'll get mine, baby let's have a good time
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talking about
Baby won't ya drive me wild? Baby let me see you smile
Baby won't ya please come here? Baby don't ya have no fear
Baby let me hold your hand, baby let me be your man
Baby won't ya scratch my back? Baby don't ya leave me mad
Baby won't you [Incomprehensible], baby won't you [Incomprehensible]
Baby won't ya drive me mad? Baby don't ya let me feel bad
Baby don't ya leave me alone, baby won't ya carry me home?
Baby won't ya jump and shout? You know what I'm talkin' about
