Petit is a small, bowl-shaped lunar crater that is located on the northwestern edge of the Mare Spumans. The name is appropriate, since Petit means small in French. But it was actually named in honor of Alexis Thérèse Petit, a French physicist.
The crater lies to the south of the crater Townley, and east of Condon. Farther to the northwest is Apollonius. Petit was previously designated Apollonius W before being given a name by the IAU.

Boy (1969 film)
Boy (少年 Shōnen) is a 1969 Japanese film directed by Nagisa Oshima, starring Tetsuo Abe, Akiko Koyama and Fumio Watanabe.
Plot
Based on real events reported in Japanese newspapers in 1966Boy follows the title character, Toshio Omura, across Japan, as he is forced to participate in a dangerous scam to support his dysfunctional family. Toshio's father, Takeo Omura, is an abusive, lazy veteran, who forces his wife, the boy's stepmother, Takeko Tamiguchi, to feign being hit by cars in order to shake down the motorists. When his wife is unable to perform the scam, Toshio is enlisted. The boy's confused perspective of the scams and his chaotic family life are vividly captured in precisely edited sequences. As marital strife, mounting abuse, and continual moving take their toll, the boy tries to escape, either by running away on trains, or by retreating into a sci-fi fantasy he has constructed for his little brother and himself. Finally, in snowy Hokkaidō, the law finally catches up when the little brother unwittingly causes a fatal car accident. Although traumatized, Toshio tries to help his family elude capture in the final sequence, presented in documentary fashion, describing their arrest.
Boy (album)
Boy is the debut album by Irish rock band U2. It was produced by Steve Lillywhite, and was released on 20 October 1980 on Island Records. Thematically, the album captures the thoughts and frustrations of adolescence. It contains many songs from the band's 40-song catalogue at the time, including two tracks that were re-recorded from their original versions on the band's debut release, the EP Three. Boy was recorded from March–September 1980 at Windmill Lane Studios in Dublin; it was their first time at the studio, which became their chosen recording location during the 1980s. It was also their first time working with Lillywhite, who subsequently became a frequent producer for the band's recorded work.
Boy included U2's first hit single, "I Will Follow". The album's release was followed by the group's first tour of continental Europe and the United States, the Boy Tour. The album received generally positive reviews from critics. It peaked at number 52 in the UK and number 63 in the US. In 2008, a remastered edition of Boy was released.
Boy (duo)
Boy (stylized BOY) is a Swiss/German pop duo founded in 2007 by Swiss singer Valeska Steiner and German bassist Sonja Glass. The two met while at a pop-music course at the Hochschule für Musik und Theater Hamburg in 2005. The band initially played concerts exclusively, before being discovered and signed to Herbert Grönemeyer's label, Grönland Records, in 2011.
Their debut album, Mutual Friends (Gold-certified in Germany), was produced by Philipp Steinke and released in the autumn of 2011. The band sings entirely in English in a style reminiscent of that of Leslie Feist.
In the UK, Mutual Friends was released by Decca in June 2012. The North American release of the album is set for February 2013 on Nettwerk Records.
Boy won the Hamburg Musician Prize HANS in 2011 in the category Hamburgs Newcomer of the Year, and their album Mutual Friends won the 2012 European Border Breakers Award (EBBA).
The duo's song "Little Numbers" was also featured in the Lufthansa Airline's Business Class advertisement in mid-2012. In 2013 the song was at No. 4 in the Japan Hot 100.

Petit Boy
by: Jango JackLe petit boy, fait son biz
C'est ainsi qu'il est nomm? dans sa cit?
Il vend ses ch?timents, en bas des b?timents
Et chaque soir il croise les yeux de son p?re
Il respecte sa family (FAMILY)
Et sa famille lit dans ses yeux
Comme un livre et ne fait rien
Le petit boy fait son biiiiiiiiz
Parce que c'est tout ce qu'il sait faire
~REFRAIN~
C'est petit boy
Vivant dans les halls
Juste en bas des blocks
c'est tout ce qu'il sait faire
Petit boy
Vivant dans les halls
Juste en bas des blocks et tout le monde le laissait faire
Le petit boy, fait monnaie
Au sein du foyer familial toute l'ann?e
Ici tous les fr?ts il les payent en esp?ce
Car l'argent sale ne doit pas laisser de traces
J'ai tellement piti? pour petit boy
Dans sa spirale infernale
Oooooh petit boy ne peut s'emp?cher de pleurer
Pour sa famiiiille
parce que tous le laissait faire
~REFRAIN~
Le petit boy, voudrait cesser
De vendre cette merde ? travers le quartier
Maintenant ses sentiments
Sont plus lourds que les b?timents
Il a conscience qu'il fait du tort aux fr?res
Il veut d?livrer sa family
De son reigne malsain, enfin
Le petit boy, seul dans la nuiiiiit
Part sous le bruit des gyrophares
~REFRAIN~
Que son nom ? pr?sent soit sanctifi?,
petit boy n'est qu'un enfant,
qui souffre parce qu'il sait
qu'il fait du mal ? ses parents.
