Thousands of ancient carvings in stone were discovered in the Côa Valley in the 1980s and 1990s. These are of particular interest due to the high concentration of Paleolithic art, and because these carvings are found outside of caves, on rocks in plain sight: Jean Clottes, a prominent French prehistorian, had confirmed that "is the biggest open air site of paleolithic art in Europe, if not in the world".
The drawings attracted worldwide attention when plans to build a hydroelectric dam across the Côa Valley threatened to submerge them. Although hydroelectric development was already well underway, outcry from locals, the scientific community and the media led to dam construction being halted in 1995 after a change in the national government following elections. A significant proportion of the drawings in the Canada do Inferno area were already underwater by that time. The Côa Valley Archaeological Park, opened in 1996 , was declared a protected UNESCO world heritage site in 1998.
Malcolm Reynolds, played by Nathan Fillion, is owner and captain of the Firefly-class spaceship Serenity, and was a volunteer in the war between the Alliance and the Independents (aka "Browncoats"). He got the name for his spaceship from a famous battle he fought and commanded in, the Battle of Serenity Valley. When asked why he named his ship after a lost battle, Zoe comments "Once you're in Serenity, you never leave. You just learn how to live there." He is fiercely loyal to those he calls his crew.
Malcolm's main mission is to keep his crew alive and to keep his ship flying. As Firefly writer Tim Minear stated in an interview: "It's just about getting by. That's always been the mission statement of what the show is— getting by." In "Serenity", Mal says of himself: "[If the] Wind blows northerly, I go North."
Screens from Serenity suggest that Mal was born on September 20, 2468— which would make him 49 at the time of the series Firefly— though, as the average human lifespan is 120, this would make him the equivalent of a man in his early 30s today. Mal was raised by his mother and "about 40 hands" on a ranch on the planet Shadow. Though Mal usually seems more practical than intellectual, he occasionally surprises his friends by displaying familiarity with disparate literature varying from the works of Xiang Yu to poems by Samuel Taylor Coleridge, though he has no idea "who" Mona Lisa is.
River is a 2011 Japanese drama film based on the 2008 Akihabara massacre incident. The film is written and directed by Ryūichi Hiroki. The film stars actress Misako Renbutsu, who will play the role of a person who lost her love interest in the attacks.
River debuted at the 12th Tokyo Filmex as one of its special presentations. It will subsequently be released in Japanese cinemas on 10 March 2012.
Plot
Hikari's boyfriend is one of those killed in the Akihabara massacre incident. Suffering from the shock of her loss and unable to accept this reality, she cuts herself off from the outside world. She eventually manages to muster enough courage to visit Akihabara, the scene of the incident. There, she encounters many people who are still coming to terms with the aftermath of the incident and are still suffering from the aftereffects.
Cast
Misako Renbutsu as Hikari, a woman whose boyfriend was a victim in the attacks.

Lyrics:
Please come and save me...
1. Here I am again
A river in flood
Maybe I dream or
Maybe I met God.
Now everything seems unreal
Maybe I'm crazy
Or maybe I'm falling down
''He gives me birth but I still have to dream''
Don't leave me here alone
'Cos I cannot control myself
''He gives me birth and I still have to dream''
Water is leaking
As we are falling into hell
R: When my heart tells me don't wake up
I don't wake
When my heart tells me don't wake up
I don't wake
2. In every moment
I try to find out
How to be fine
And happy in my life

There comes a time in life when you have to make your decisions To mould your future because tomorrow is another day Well I've been sitting, thinking, and I kinda see it this way I'd really like to be 'man at C & A' I'd really like to be I really wanna be The position was made for me I think I've got to be I don't really care if we're in or out of Europe And I don't give a toss if inflation is up or down Just give me my Sky TV All I want is my Ford Capri And I'll be happier that way I think I'll spend my time wearing lairy shorts in Essex I think I'll spend my days burning holes in the ozone layer And when my children say, 'What did you do for me Dad?' I'll say, 'Don't ask me kid, I was man at C & A' You can find a future if you stroll down to the job club And you can buy anything as long as you're willing to pay But I get all I want at my local Sainsbury's supermarket And the rest are at bargain prices When I shop down at C & A So when your time comes and you have to make your decisions To mould your future, because tomorrow's is another day Then why not join me at the queue down at the check out
