A pearl is a hard object produced within the soft tissue (specifically the mantle) of a living shelled mollusc. Just like the shell of a clam, a pearl is composed of calcium carbonate in minute crystalline form, which has been deposited in concentric layers. The ideal pearl is perfectly round and smooth, but many other shapes (baroque pearls) occur. The finest quality natural pearls have been highly valued as gemstones and objects of beauty for many centuries. Because of this, pearl has become a metaphor for something rare, fine, admirable and valuable.
The most valuable pearls occur spontaneously in the wild, but are extremely rare. These wild pearls are referred to as natural pearls. Cultured or farmed pearls from pearl oysters and freshwater mussels make up the majority of those currently sold. Imitation pearls are also widely sold in inexpensive jewelry, but the quality of their iridescence is usually very poor and is easily distinguished from that of genuine pearls. Pearls have been harvested and cultivated primarily for use in jewelry, but in the past were also used to adorn clothing. They have also been crushed and used in cosmetics, medicines and paint formulations.
Pearl was an American literary journal published between 1974 and 2014 in Long Beach, California.
Pearl was founded by Joan Jobe Smith in 1974. The first issue appeared in May 1974. It was edited by Joan Jobe Smith, Marilyn Johnson, and Barbara Hauk. Pearl was based in Long Beach. It released an annual fiction issue and an annual poetry issue as well as hosting an annual poetry prize.
After several issues published Pearl went defunct until 1986 when Joan Jobe Smith and Marilyn Johnson relaunched it.
The magazine ceased publication in 2014.

Lion is the first official release of the homemade tapes of Memphis musician, Scott Taylor. The earlier songs on this compilation were recorded when Taylor was only eighteen. The songs are most often bitter or ouright angry love songs or simply songs of longing. The songs have many layers of guitar effects, which gives what are somewhat recognizable Southern blues roots a dark psychedelic edge. Some of the homemade recordings on Lion found their way into the hands of David Shouse, who then asked the much younger Taylor to join his new band, which would later become known as The Grifters. Though Taylor was originally reluctant to use his Hot Monkey material in a band format, "Nothin' At All" would be recorded with A Band Called Bud, while "Need You" and "Another Song" would end up on the first two Grifters EPs. It would be another five years before "Arizona" would appear on the Grifters' best-selling album, Crappin' You Negative.
Lion as a name may refer to:
Lion-sur-Mer is a commune in the Calvados department in the Basse-Normandie region in northwestern France.
Lion-sur-Mer is located on the edge of the English Channel, more precisely on the Côte de Nacre (Mother of Pearl Coast), about 15 km (9.3 mi) North of Caen.
The beach is made of fine sand and is bordered, to the west, by middle-sized cliffs.
The town is served by 2 bus services : line No. 1 of the Bus Verts du Calvados and line No. 62 of Twisto. A ferry of Brittany Ferries links Ouistreham (5 km from Lion-sur-Mer) to Portsmouth in England.

A strong inflection is a system of verb conjugation or noun/adjective declension which can be contrasted with an alternative system in the same language, which is then known as a weak inflection. The term strong was coined with reference to the Germanic verb, but has since been used of other phenomena in these and other languages, which may or may not be analogous. Note that there is nothing objectively "strong" about a strong form; the term is only meaningful in opposition to "weak" as a means of distinguishing paradigms within a single language. Nor is there any distinguishing feature common to all strong forms, except that they are always counterpoints to "weak" ones.
The Germanic strong verb, occurring in Germanic languages including German and English, is characterised by a vowel shift called ablaut. Examples in English include give/gave, come/came, fall/fell. There is nothing comparable in the German strong adjective inflections. For a full discussion of this distinction see weak inflection.

We share our sharp canine teeth with lions, hippos, and other mammals. But believe it or not, they have nothing to do with tearing into meat. Instead, our ancestors originally used them to fight for mating rights, and they shrunk over time as we stopped using our teeth as weapons.

Chorus
A pearl in a crystal shell,
pure and race compassion shown,
a smile that deepens my health,
Angel wings rise in your peace.
Verse 1
Pain in the bones, longing for home,
mercy shown, stands forever,
bringing The Light, see the smiles,
through the pain, when I wake,
feel the care, flowing round,
in the air, today,
Angles' Grace, from Heavens Gate.
Chorus repeat
Verse 2
Feel the pain, in my veins,
in despair, but you are there,
drugs of fate, burn and scare,
shocking ways, far to near,
someone shows compassion and care,
