Melfi
Melfi is a town and comune in the Vulture area of the province of Potenza, in the Southern Italian region of Basilicata.
Geography
On a hill at the foot of Mount Vulture, Melfi is the most important town in Basilicata's Vulture, both as a tourist resort and economic centre.
History
Early and Middle Age history
Inhabited by the Daunians and Lucanians, under the Romans it was included in the area of the colony of Venusia, founded in 291 BC. After the fall of Western Roman Empire, Melfi gained importance in the Middle Ages as a strategic point between areas controlled by the Byzantines and those controlled by the Lombards.
Melfi was captured several times by the struggling powers of the region, until it was assigned to the Norman leader William I of Hauteville. The Hauteville family started from here their conquest of southern Italy, which, in the early 12th century, led to the creation of the Kingdom of Sicily.
In 1059 Melfi became the capital of the Duchy of Apulia. Papal counciles were held in the city in the same year and in 1109. In 1231, Emperor Frederick II proclaimed the Constitutions of Melfi (or Constitutiones Augustales) here, reinforcing control over his ever-expanding territory. He created a bureaucracy of paid officials, who among other things imposed a tax system on the local feudal rulers, who resented it but could not resist.

Minus Eighty Degree Laboratory Freezer for ISS
The Minus Eighty-Degree Laboratory Freezer for ISS (MELFI) is a European-built experiment storage freezer for the International Space Station. It comprises four independent dewars which can be set to operate at different temperatures. Currently temperatures of −80°C, −26°C, and +4°C are used during on-orbit ISS operations. Both reagents and samples will be stored in the freezer. As well as storage the freezer is designed to be used to transport samples to and from the ISS in a temperature controlled environment. The total capacity of the unit is 300 litres.
History
The first MELFI unit, FU-1, was flown to the station in 2006 on Space Shuttle mission STS-121, installed in the Destiny Laboratory Module, and commissioned by Thomas Reiter.
The MELFI flight units were originally designed to be flown fully powered in the Multi-Purpose Logistics Module, permitting pre-made experiments to be flown to the station without contaminating or destroying any samples.

Melfi
by: Illz[Verse 1]
Yo somebody tell me whats the meaning
The hunt for doe I’m fiending
I’m feeling like I be dreaming
The hunger that I be feeding
Is similar to my demons
Consuming
Beware of the all dooming
Need for the greed I see it is all looming
around the perimeter
temper is just fuming
wishing they could give it up
i need a shot
working with what I got
and believe me its not a lot
promise to never stop
tho I’m feeling just like a prop
empty and so square
feel like I’m not there
see I’m standing in the background
no one really cares
throughout these sad years
i swear dat it ain’t fair
i’m gone!
[Verse 2]
It feels like I’m not there
my vision in the mirror I’m met with a deep stare
who am i?
he that never dies
born to touch the sky
with a cry
i exclaimed
get me lames let em try!
But their lifeless
A choice that you make could bring u a crisis
They say you’ll pay for it
But never tell you the prices
A wise man told me just listen because its like this
U’ll go on without living
If you remain indecisive
So take a chance
Turn ur life around change ya planz
The hardest choices are the ones that really make the man
And don’t be hesitant to motivate and make demandz
Don’t waste your time trying to make them understand
If they never did they never will
Talking about plans on the phone with ill
Lets give them something they could feel
Grind harder, when life is full of problems then you starve her
Instead of being saddened, and blaming it on ur karma
A chink on the armor
Still remain a beast
Can I please say my piece
Can somebody let me speak
Been a month since I actually enjoyed myself
I’m trying to get it to the point where I enjoy my wealth
U know u gotta have it to enjoy it
And beef it comes around no matter trying to avoid it
Whenever I feel that I could win
It begins
Doubts and second guessing
Its coming up from within
Regerjetated
U ever felt unappreciated
Unmotivated
So underrated
A few seconds from feeling like you made it
And everyday its harder not to hate it
Back when I was younger
i felt all the pressure that I was under
hoping for acceptance
one day it just made me wonder
forget this drama I’m leaving it for dem young wunz
i distanced from the haters
and vowed to never become one
i’m tainted
i’m filled with the hunger of being famous
while staring at the world
i decided I wanna change it
and nobody could feel me
nobody could smell the fragrance
of greatness
its like I was speaking another language
it deepens
and all of deze haterz
they only praying that I weaken
i hope my state of mind
one day could reach em
inspire
that something inside em
and spark a fire
i hope one day you welcome
whatever your heart desires
no bad wishes
recollections of my dad listen
he’s telling me to take a risk
saying that’s living
that’s giving
with all you got to it
my mind it ran through it
seen in play in past visions
i look up to him with this admiration
he’s saying act now
erase the hesitation
and make your choices with little deliberation
i married money and art and made em my inspiration
they told me
son when u get older
u might have the world on your shoulders
but we built u to get over
