Harry Potter author JK Rowling, admitted that Dumbledore is gay. He was in love with a famous wizard named Grindelwald whom he defeated in a duel.
“I had always seen Dumbledore as gay, but in a sense that’s not a big deal. The book wasn’t about Dumbledore being gay. It was just that from the outset obviously I knew that he had this big, hidden secret and that he flirted with the idea of exactly what Voldemort goes on to do, he flirted with the idea of racial domination, that he was going to subjugate Muggles.” So that my friend was Dumbledore’s big secret.
He’s an innately good man, what would make him do that? I didn’t even think it through that way, it just seemed to come to me, I thought, ‘I
know why he did it. He fell in love.’ And whether they physically consummated this infatuation or not is not the issue. The issue is love. It’s not about sex. So that’s what I knew about Dumbledore. And it’s relevant only in so much as he fell in love and was made an utter fool of by love. He lost his moral compass completely when he fell in love and I think subsequently became very mistrusting of his own judgement in those matters so became quite asexual. He led a celibate and a bookish life.”

You’ve probably heard this “fact” a lot of times:
“The Great Wall of China is the only human-made object that can be seen from outer-space.”
Well guess again. It turns out it’s not even true. The first known publishing of this “fact” was back in 1938, long before anyone was traveling in space. Since can someone do my essay then lots of people have gone into outer space and looked at the Earth and haven’t found or took a glimpse at the Great Wall.
The Great Wall is huge (5500 miles long) but in order to be visible from far away it would also have to be very wide and distinct looking from the ground. The Great Wall is very thin. If it were visible from space, every interstate highway would be too!
On the other hand, you can see the Pyramids of Giza from space. You can also see Minutemaid Park, the Toyota Center, and the George R. Brown Convention Center in Houston, TX

Police officers beware! A police chief in Bangkok, Thailand instituted a new policy for Bangkok cops in 2007. They have to wear pink Hello Kitty armbands with hearts on them as punishment for misbehaving. This punishment includes anything such as: breaking the law, littering, showing up late to work, parking in the wrong place.
“This new twist is to make them feel guilty and ashamed and prevent them from
repeating the offense, no matter how minor. Kitty is a cute icon for young girls. It’s not something macho police officers want covering their biceps.
In early experiments, the unconventional punishment hasn’t worked. Instead of feeling shame, the officers just took them home as souvenirs. Guess they have cialis online to try other means.

By definition, a berry is a fleshy fruit produced from a single seed. The strawberry, however has dry, yellow “seeds” on the outside (each of which is actually considered a separate fruit). Indeed, berries, such as blueberries and
cranberries
have seeds inside. However, the banana fruit is a berry for the same reason strawberries are not.
.
There is a theory that strawberries were named by 19th century children who picked the fruit, strung them on grass straws, and sold them as “Straws of berries”.

Take a look at that picture. It’s a lotus
seed pod. Does it make your skin crawl and itch? You may suffer from Trypophobia.
Although it’s not an officially recognized fear, there’s a movement trying to get it officially recognized and people are petitioning for more research.
Trypophobia is the fear of asymetrical holes occurring either naturally or unnaturally. Some say that the fear may come from the fact that holes in your skin were a sign of
disease, and therefore we are programmed to feel icky about those things.

Wanna see magic? The potato creates an electrochemical battery (or
cell), which can convert chemical energy into electric energy by a “spontaneous electron transfer.”
As the
experiment describes, “the potato acts as a sort of buffer between the zinc ions and copper ions” (from the nails and wire), whick allows the electron transfer “to take place over the copper wires of the circuit, which channels the energy in the clock.” Then boom energy is produced!
