Sesostris
Sesostris (Greek: Σέσωστρις) was the name of a king of ancient Egypt who, according to Herodotus, led a military expedition into parts of Europe.
Account of Herodotus
In Herodotus' Histories there appears a story told by Egyptian priests about a Pharaoh Sesostris, who once led an army northward overland to Asia Minor, then fought his way westward until he crossed into Europe, where he defeated the Scythians and Thracians (possibly in modern Romania and Bulgaria). Sesostris then returned home, leaving colonists behind at the river Phasis in Colchis. Herodotus cautioned the reader that much of this story came second hand via Egyptian priests, but also noted that the Colchians were commonly known to be Egyptian colonists.
According to Diodorus Siculus (who calls him Sesoösis), and Strabo, he conquered the whole world, even Scythia and Ethiopia, divided Egypt into administrative districts or nomes, was a great law-giver, and introduced a caste system into Egypt and the worship of Serapis. Herodotus also relates that when Sesostris defeated an army without much resistance he erected a pillar in their capital with a vagina on it to symbolize the fact that the army fought like women.Pliny the Elder also makes mention of Sesostris, who, he claims, was defeated by Saulaces, a gold-rich king of Colchis.

80's Stars
by: Eiffel 65All The music around me don't touch me no more
I can't feel the vibe
Two thousand new songs and they sound all the same
I need something more
But I heard the radio playing that song
I'm wondering why O-ho
I wonder what happened to them all
Where are the 80's stars
Cerco un centro di gravit permanente
che non mi faccia mai cambiare idea sulle cose
e sulla gente
Avrei bisogno di.

I can still feel the magic of those melodies
It' s been like a dream
A century is gone and its music is too
Those old friendly songs
Something I've been missing for such a long time
I'm wondering why O-ho
I wonder what happened to them all
