Lake Matano
Lake Matano (Indonesian: Danau Matano), also known as Matana, is a natural lake in South Sulawesi, Indonesia. With a depth of 590 m (1,940 ft), it is the deepest lake in Indonesia (ranked by maximum depth), and the 10th deepest lake in the world. The surface elevation from mean sea level is only 382 m (1,253 ft), which means that the deepest portion of the lake is below sea level (cryptohollow). It is one of the two major lakes (the other being Lake Towuti) in the Malili Lake system.
Endemic animals and plants
Lake Matano is home to many species of endemic fish and other animals (e.g. Caridina shrimps,Parathelphusid crabs and Tylomelania snails) as well as many plants. The endemic fishes of Matano have been compared to the species swarms of the Rift Valley Lakes of Africa. While not as diverse, they are thought to have all arisen from a single ancestor species and diversified into numerous different species, which now fill many of the previously vacant ecological niches, as can be seen in the family Telmatherinidae. Endemic and near-endemic fishes from other families include Glossogobius matanensis, Mugilogobius adeia, Nomorhamphus weberi and Oryzias matanensis. Many of the endemics are seriously threatened due to pollution and predation/competition from a wide range of introduced fishes, including flowerhorn cichlids.

Just Rock N Roll
by: Midtownyou can never tell me i shouldn't walk away
its foolish to assume that ill be coming back another day
you were never right and i was never wrong
does truth lie in sincerity of another sullen song
cause you were right then i should have been the one to release it
its coming back to tease me
but i was just born and you're pride was too strong
can you change it?
are you willing to face it?
you can tell your story and coat it any way
but you will never change who you trying to play
now your friends are falling out
they know you just don't care
they know you never did
because they say always
the first one is never as good as the next.
hey, it's just rock and roll
even though you might think you lost it all.
cause the times they are a changin
and who can predict what's next
hey, you lost control
even though you might have thought you had it all
and hey, it's just rock and roll
and i'll never change
i love it just the same
i'll never change
because i love it just the same
god i wish i could hate you the rest of my life
god i wish i could hate you for the rest of my
nothing would make me happier
