Tec-Mec (full name Studio Tecnica Meccanica) was a Formula One constructor from Italy. Founded by former Maserati designer Valerio Colotti in 1958, they participated in a single Grand Prix, scoring no World Championship points.
Tec-Mec used an improved, lightened version of the Maserati 250F, named the F415. The car was upgraded by the 250F's designer, Colotti, and financed by Lloyd Casner of Camoradi International. The team made its single outing in the 1959 United States Grand Prix, but the car, driven by Fritz d'Orey lasted six laps before retiring.
Colotti sold the design studio at the end of the year, and the company continued to produce cars for the Formula Junior series.

TEC may refer to:
Tyrosine-protein kinase Tec is an enzyme that in humans is encoded by the TEC gene.
The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the Tec family of non-receptor protein-tyrosine kinases containing a pleckstrin homology domain. Tec family kinases are involved in the intracellular signaling mechanisms of cytokine receptors, lymphocyte surface antigens, heterotrimeric G-protein-coupled receptors, and integrin molecules. They are also key players in the regulation of the immune functions. Tec kinase is an integral component of T cell signaling and has a distinct role in T cell activation. This gene may be associated with myelodysplastic syndrome.
TEC (gene) has been shown to interact with:
Société Régionale Wallonne du Transport (SRWT) (Walloon Regional Transport Company), is responsible for the supervision, strategic planning and marketing of a group of five regional public transport companies branded as TEC or "Transport En Commun" (Public Transport) in Wallonia, Belgium. It is primarily a bus operator, but also operates the Charleroi tram system. TEC buses and trams are distinctively painted yellow and red.
TEC was founded in 1991 through the breakup of the former Belgian SNCV into separate companies for Wallonia and Flanders.
Mecé (Breton: Mezieg, Gallo: Meczaé) is a commune in the Ille-et-Vilaine department of Brittany in northwestern France.
Inhabitants of Mecé are called Mecéens in French.
MEC may refer to:
4-Methylethcathinone or 4-MEC is a chemical that bears a chemical resemblance to mephedrone. Due to its similarity to mephedrone, it is thought to be a stimulant and entactogen drug of the phenethylamine, amphetamine, and cathinone chemical classes. It has been marketed alone or in mixtures with other substituted cathinones under the name "NRG-2", although other blends such as "NRG-1" may have been more ambiguous with their ingredients.
4-MEC is reported to have been used as the active ingredient in fake "Ecstasy" pills in some countries such as New Zealand.
4-MEC is a synthetic stimulant with empathogenic effects that is chemically similar to methcathinone. It became available online in 2010 and has been sold as replacement for 4-methylmethcathinone (mephedrone). It has an extremely short history of human use. As of 2011, it is most often found as a powder (either represented as 4-methylethcathinone or included in powder products that don't specify their active ingredients) and has appeared in some samples of "NRG-2", although it has also been found in tablet form.
She fell in love with a boy
Who spoke a second language,
And who lived across the ocean
In the evil empire.
He awoke her sleeping heart
And swept away the darkness;
An acute fear of flying couldn't keep her away.
She landed on her feet
And joined his fledgling rock group,
As they toured the evil empire
Selling t-shirts at the shows.
She taught him what was real;
She taught him he was okay
That his thoughts were not just rubbish,
That he had something good to give.
Still his heart was so ambivalent
And homesick of her
He wasn't ever sure.
But she gave in so sweetly
That the spirit said, "Well you better go run to her!"
So when she split, he hopped on a plane
With his parents and his brother.
He told her that he loved her
