It has been claimed that we only use ten per cent of our brain. This is a myth but it is true that we
are probably all capable of doing far more with our brains than we do at present. The brain can be
trained to improve performance, rather like a muscle can. There are various techniques for improving
your memory, for example that do seem to work. Many magicians and stage performers use these
methods and there seems no reason why the rest of us couldn't learn to improve our abilities with
practice.
James Randi is a professional magician. He is well known for more than just his performances of
magic, however. He is also famous for offering $10,000 to anyone who can prove that they have
supernatural or paranormal powers. As a magician, he believes that all the people who claim to have
special powers are actually tricking other people into believing them. His knowledge of tricks means
that he can soon see how people are being deceived.
Our brains arc usually very good at analyzing the information they receive from our eyes. However, it
is possible to fool the brain using certain images. To test this, draw two lines of equal length, one
above the other. Now draw two more lines crossing them, going up the page and going in at an angle.
The new lines should look like railway tracks disappearing into the distance. When you look now at
the original two lines, your brain will think the top line is longer than the bottom line. Images like
this are known as 'optical illusions'.
Watch science fiction films and you will often see a computer or a robot that is intelligent. In the 70s,
researchers in artificial intelligence were generally optimistic that they would create a thinking
computer within a few decades. However, they have not been very successful. Outside a few very
specialised tasks, such as playing chess, computers are still a long way from being intelligent in any
real sense. Some scientists even question whether it is ultimately possible to create an intelligent
computer at all.
In the middle of the twentieth century, a new medical condition was identified: autism. A child with
autism has problems communicating with other people and finds it difficult to establish relationships
with others. Autistic children develop language more slowly than other children and often seem very
distant. The condition can be stronger in some people than in others and there is no cure, although
many autistic people can learn to interact with other people reasonably well.
The brain is composed of about 100 billion neurons or nerve cells, all connected to one another.
Information comes into a neuron from other neurons and then the neuron sends out a signal to other
neurons it is connected to. Using electrical and chemical signals, this complicated system of neurons
is behind all the processes of the brain, from looking after the body to higher thoughts and aims.

Elvis had a brother who
lived longer than he did.

Elvis Presley was born into a working class family in .Mississippi in 1935. Although there was never much money, his family was very close and went to church together. The music he heard there had a big influence on his future sound. Elvis recorded his first songs in 1953, but it wasn't until January 1956 that he produced his first hit, Heartbreak Hotel. In August of that year, he also filmed his first movie, Love Me Tender. He would go on to make 33 films and sell over 500 million records around the world.

Despite this enormous success, there was also tragedy in Elvis's life. He had a twin brother who died at birth and his mother died at the young age of 46. He himself suffered a heart attack and died in 1977, aged just 42,

"John Lennon never saw
his mother after the age of five.
John Lennon and Paul
McCartney both played
in The Quarry Men.
John Lennon died a
few years after Elvis
Presley did.

Born in 1940, John Winston Lennon was brought up by his Aunt Mimi. His father left his mother when John was five and his mother, Julia, didn't feel able to look after him. They kept in touch, though, and it was in fact Julia who taught him to play banjo, starting one of the most amazing careers in pop music. Lennon went to art college, although he left before finishing the course to concentrate on his music. He had already formed a group called The Quarry Men and they performed at various places in Liverpool. Lennon was introduced to Paul McCartney, who joined the band. They changed the name of the band a few times, finally settling on The Beatles by I960.

The band became very famous and had 20 number one hits in America. They introduced a serious, poetic side to pop music and influenced many performers. Various artistic differences led to the group splitting up in 1970.

Lennon continued to make music on his own and with his wife, Yoko Ono, until he retired in the mid~70s to spend more time with his family. He started to make music again in 1980 and had released a new album. Double Fantasy, when he was shot and killed by a fan in December of that year. He was 40 years old.
