Today's poem: All the World's a Stage

All the World's a Stage Dance comes thru as horse and carriage stretching the road away like a limit left behind, knowing what is leaving, keep moving before the hum when looking behind catches this break-away. and they keep hearing it through the grape vine, all the dancing has added up to freedom now, when there were no signs on that road but creeping indication today of any kind of movement, the body has always been knowledge, and the horse? well, it is cutting the air like a butter knife thru cake. -S.Grutz

Don't it make my brown eyes, blue

What is the genetic mutation "Originally, we all had brown eyes," said Professor Hans Eiberg from the Department of Cellular and Molecular Medicine. "But a genetic mutation affecting the OCA2 gene in our chromosomes resulted in the creation of a "switch," which literally "turned off" the ability to produce brown eyes." The OCA2 gene codes for the so-called P protein, which is involved in the production of melanin, the pigment that gives colour to our hair, eyes and skin. The "switch," which is located in the gene adjacent to OCA2 does not, however, turn off the gene entirely, but rather limits its action to reducing the production of melanin in the iris -- effectively "diluting" brown eyes to blue. The switch's effect on OCA2 is very specific therefore. If the OCA2 gene had been completely destroyed or turned off, human beings would be without melanin in their hair, eyes or skin colour -- a condition known as  albinism...
