Melissa
Melissa is a given name for a female child. The name comes from the Greek word μέλισσα (melissa), "honey bee", which in turn comes from μέλι (meli), "honey". In Hittite melit signifies "honey". Thus the name is the approximate Greek equivalent for the Hebrew name Deborah (דְּבוֹרָה), meaning bee.
Melissa also refers to the plant Melissa officinalis (Lamiaceae family), known as lemon balm.
Melisa is a common variant form, with others being Malissa, Melesa, Melessa, Meliza, Mellisa, Melosa, and Molissa.
In Ireland it is sometimes used as a feminine form of the Gaelic male name Maoilíosa, which means "servant of Jesus".
According to Greek mythology, perhaps reflecting Minoan culture, making her the daughter of a Cretan king Melissos, whose -issos ending is pre-Greek, Melissa was a nymph who discovered and taught the use of honey and from whom bees were believed to have received their name. She was one of the nymph nurses of Zeus, sister to Amaltheia, but rather than feeding the baby milk, Melissa, appropriately for her name, fed him honey. Or, alternatively, the bees brought honey straight to his mouth. Because of her, Melissa became the name of all the nymphs who cared for the patriarch god as a baby.
Ibn Firnas (crater)
File:
Ibn Firnas is a lunar impact crater on the far side of the Moon, in honour of Abbas Ibn Firnas, a polymath from Andalucia who, in the 7th century, devised a chain of rings that could be used to simulate the motions of the planets and stars.
Attached to the exterior of its southwestern rim is the prominent crater King. Only a few kilometers to the north, separated by a rugged stretch of terrain, is the larger crater Ostwald. This is a worn and eroded crater with small impacts along the northern and eastern rims. The satellite crater Ibn Firnas L lies along the inner wall to the southeast and covers part of the interior floor. Along the northern side, the small satellite crater Ibn Firnas Y cuts through the rim and overlays part of the inner wall. The interior floor is irregular along the northern and southwest sections where their shape has been modified by the large nearby craters mentioned above. Several small craterlets lie across the remainder of the interior floor.
Kasakela Chimpanzee Community
The Kasakela chimpanzee community is a habituated community of wild eastern chimpanzees that lives in Gombe National Park near Lake Tanganyika in Tanzania. The community was the subject of Dr Jane Goodall's pioneering study that began in 1960, and studies have continued ever since. As a result, the community has been instrumental in the study of chimpanzees, and has been popularized in several books and documentaries. The community's popularity was enhanced by Dr Goodall's practice of giving names to the chimpanzees she was observing, in contrast to the typical scientific practice of identifying the subjects by number. Dr Goodall generally used a naming convention in which infants were given names starting with the same letter as their mother, allowing the recognition of matrilineal lines.

I Love U
by: MelissaOne look in your eyes
I knew we two would always be together
And there are, 3 little words that say it all
I love you
Never believed in love at first sight
But I believe what I'm feeling tonight
'Cause when I saw you across the room
I felt my heart going boom, boom, boom
I looked, I fell so hard
boy I know you can tell that
I'm hooked, oh you, oh girl
You know I'm falling for you because
[CHORUS]:
One look in your eyes
I knew we two would alwayz be together
And there are, 3 little words that say it all
I love you
boy I realize
That I wanna be with you forever
So say those 3 little words I wanna hear
I love you
I was waitin' for a sign from you
Hoping you'd feel the same way, too
When you looked at me and smiled
My heart was goin' a thousand miles
I stopped, turned around, I tried
To keep my feet on the ground
As I stepped to you, we touched
I knew you were feelin' it too because
One look in your eyes
I knew we two would alwayz be together
And there are, 3 little words that say it all
I love you
boy I realize
That I wanna be with you forever
So say those 3 little words I wanna hear
I love you
I know it's written all over my face
And boy you can believe it's true
'Cause time could never erase
These feelings I have for you
One look in your eyes
I knew we two would alwayz be together
And there are, 3 little words that say it all
I love you
boy I realize
That I wanna be with you forever
So say those 3 little words I wanna hear
