The light and the clouds were constantly changing. For a few seconds, the clouds settled in like a collar framing the valley. I shoot with my cellphone... then darted to our campervan to grab my big irons and glasses and came back as fast as I could but the cloud collar had dissapeared, let alone the birds. I prepared the gear and stood for more than half and hour waiting for a suitable cloud arrangement and for the crows to appear. I shoot like mad but I got no other picture as good as this one, not by a long shot. The take home message: don't ever leave behind your gear.
I bless the day I found you
I want to stay around you
And so I beg you, let it be me
Don't take this heaven from one
If you must cling to someone
Now and forever, let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always let it be me
Each time we meet love
I find complete love
Without your sweet love what would life be
So never leave me lonely
Tell me you love me only
And that you'll always---let--it be--me

Science fiction:
Data could be stored in solar systems. Sun light change on a planet could be a part of a code. Some planets together, they could create a code like a binary code ( used in digital computers), written with a binary number system in which there are only two possibilities, off and on ( like on a planet night and day), symbolized by 0 and 1. Each digit is one bit. There are a lot of planets in a galaxy, and there are billions of galaxies.
It might be possible that a lot of information could be saved in space, and nature might use this data for its next move.
Whoo finally I have done another database picture. I figure I should do this while I can.
After all, future is uncertain. Anyway my collection is incomplete, you can visit Angel Den for more info.
These hands are exchangeable on SD10 Girl, SD10 Boy, SD13 Girl and SDGr Girl.
You can see their compatibility on SDG vs SDGrG body here. I hope this will be useful. ^__^

In Greek mythology, Lycaon was a king of Arcadia who, in the most popular version of the myth, tested Zeus' omniscience by serving him the roasted flesh of Lycaon's own son Nyctimus, in order to see whether Zeus was truly all-knowing.
In return for these gruesome deeds, Zeus transformed Lycaon into a wolf and killed his offspring; Nyctimus was restored to life.
Despite being notorious for his horrific deeds, Lycaon was also remembered as a culture hero: he was believed to have founded the city Lycosura, to have established a cult of Zeus Lycaeus and to have started the tradition of the Lycaean Games, which Pausanias thinks were older than the Panathenaic Games.

According to the BC Geographical Names database, NEEDLES is the landing’s name, but The Needles is still the official name of the narrows, even though construction of the High Arrow Dam in the 1960s submerged both the sandspits and the community that grew up there. A new NEEDLES post office was established in 1908 and closed in 1968 upon the flooding of the Arrow Lakes. Today the only thing left of the old community is its cemetery.
The late Bill Laux said McKallister’s (or McAllister’s) Landing was the site of the original Fire Valley post office, which opened in 1894. Later, the CPR called this place Page’s Landing after William Henry Page (1861-1933), an English miner who came to the area from Butte, Mont. around 1893 and served as Fire Valley postmaster from 1908 to 1910.

www.beazley.ox.ac.uk/databases/gems.htm
****************************************************************
In Greek mythology, Callisto or Kallisto was a nymph, or the daughter of King Lycaon; the myth varies in such details. She was one of the followers of Artemis (Diana for the Romans) who attracted Zeus. According to some writers, Zeus transformed himself into the figure of Artemis to lure Callisto and seduce her. She became pregnant and when this was eventually discovered, she was expelled from Artemis's group, after which a furious Hera, the wife of Zeus, transformed her into a bear. Later, just as she was about to be killed by her son when he was hunting, she was set among the stars as Ursa Major ("the Great Bear"). She was the bear-mother of the Arcadians, through her son Arcas by Zeus.
