Sunset at a Rice Farm in Jaffarabad  Balochistan Sunsets are one of the most beautiful experiences mother nature has to offer. As abundant as nature's love is, sunsets are for everyone- that too for free. Whether you live in the city or on the country side, on the beach or in the hills, be it a house or a condo- you can always gaze into the fiery gaze of the sun letting you know it's gonna be alright, each day...everyday. There is something about God made wonders...they have their own language, their own music and their own way of healing your soul.

An 11-year-old Iranian high school student in the United Kingdom is making headlines for getting a remarkable result on her Mensa IQ test that even surpasses those of great thinkers such as Albert Einstein and the late Professor Stephen Hawking. Tara Sharifi, a student at Aylesbury High School, recently took the Mensa IQ test in Oxford where she scored well above the “genius benchmark” of 140. The 11-year-old student scored 162 points on the test, which is two points ahead of Einstein, a theoretical physicist who is considered as one of the two pillars of modern physics, and famous cosmologist Professor Stephen Hawking.
