Meme: Things I learnt in April

Supergirl in the TV series Supergirl has an aunt called Astra. Why has nobody told me this? Do I need to watch the show now? I feel a bit too old for teenager superhero girls.

In a newspaper article about German composer Johann Gottlieb Nauman who lived and died in Dresden I learnt that Amadeus is the Latin form of the name Gottlieb. Amore - Liebe - Love and Deus - Gott - God https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johann_Gottlieb_Naumann

I read an article in the newspaper about the megalodon. It lived millions of years ago. So far I knew the name only from the movie "Shark Attack III" with John Barrowman (he was young and needed the money ;) ) but hadn't realized that it had been a real shark! https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Megalodon

Art: More crafty stuff

See my first post with crafty stuff, all the things I did as a kid and my mother kept http://dieastra.dreamwidth.org/374106.html

While putting my stuff back into the new furniture, I found a box with stones I had painted. I should go back to that, it is so much fun, thinking about the shape and what it could be. Here are some of the ones I did (click the LJ cut to see them all):
