The Human Eye May Act as a Compass?

 Scientists have found that the human eye may be like a compass in this article. As you know a compass works with a magnetic field, and scientist have found that an eye may work very similar. This magneto-receptive is a protein. Its present in one of two ways-one being that it is in every animal on planet Earth. A man named Dr. Reppert from the University of Massachusetts has found that if you remove the protein from the eyes of a fly that it loses its ability to respond to a magnetic field. But, what he also found is if you make the human version of the protein able to go back into the flies eyes , through genetic engineering, the ability returns. It's kind of cool if you think about it. Plus, earlier work has been done in the 1980's by a Dr. Robin Baker. Hundreds of experiments have been done by him and he has found subtle evidence that humans could indirectly have magnetic fields. It could be true, and in my opinion , one of the coolest discoveries I have ever heard of.

Which are better..Girl or guy singers?

Do you have a favorite singer? Do you have a favorite band? Which singers are better females or males?
For me I like a lot of singers but there are some that I do not like. I mostly perfer guy singers because I like deeper voices. But all singers can be good guys or girls. There are some singers that are really good and have an amazing voice! But its not the gender that matters it the singing talent that matters! So who is your favorite singer?

Female singers, Male singers:
Adele, Bruno Mars

Katy Perry, Jason Derulo
Hayley Williams, David Archulata
Rihanna, and Guys who can't sing: Justin Bieber :) Just kidding

kind of werid, but not really

 Poe wrote some really strange stories. Some of them are weirder than your grandma rapping, but Poe did go through some tough times. His mom and wife both died of tuberculosis and who can blame him for being upset. Writing was probably a good way for him to let out his emotions, and most of his stories were scary or had death. Most of them had both. Both of his fathers rejected him and all the people he loved passed away on him. I don't know why these things happened to him, but it led him to be a great and famous writer. Now, I don't think that is weird at all. 
I do not think Edgar Alan Poe is a disturbed man, and you can't judge everybody based on their writing. The point on writing is to be creative, and sometimes people write disturbing stories to let out their anger or emotion. Edgar Alan Poe did write a lot of disturbing stories, but maybe this was because he wanted to let out anger like others or to just be creative. When people write stories they don't want to write anything boring so they may write about death or maybe even Cinderella. Most of the time it's not what the people write about it's how they write it. So I don't think that people should judge writers based on what they write, maybe one day you will write something like that too. Does that mean you're disturbed?

Disturbed Authors or Not?

    Authors that makes "sick and twisted" books or navels, do not have to be a disturbed person to write disturbing stories. For example, Edgar Allan Poe, was a great very intelligent man. He had a lot of deaths around him, yes, but that does not mean he want over the bend!  He might have been emotionally troubled, because of what he'd seen through out his life. If you don't know who he is, he was a great man who wrote dark poems and short stories. When he was young, his mother died of Tuberculosis. Later on in life, his adopted mom, brother, and wife (and cousin) died of Tuberculosis. But, out side of his scary, horrific, stories and and his horrible life, he was a caring and wonderful husband to his cousin Virginia.
     Another example, would be in the movie "Nightmare on Elm Street" by Wes Craven. That is a crazy disturbing movie, but he's the farthest this being a loony! All I'm trying to say is that people that make scary, disturbing, fearful movies or stories does not mean they are disturbing or crazy! It's called being creative, using your fears or imagination in your work!
