The world post sharks
It started as everything in the US does- with a post on social media. A post that quickly gained the followers and opposers. A post that could have been a joke taken too seriously and photoshop done a little too well. Maybe it was real- I don't know, and frankly, none of it matters any longer. My two cents- had I the ability to go back in time and completely obliterate that post from existence- I would do so in a heartbeat.

A Lesson from my Father
My father named me Ishmael. I suspect that he did it as a joke, somehow knowing that I would grow up to work on boats. He certainly didn’t do it because of a love of Herman Melville’s writing; other than the Sunday papers, largely for the obituaries and sports pages, he read very little. He wasn’t Jewish either. No, my father was the sort of Christian who attended church every couple of Sundays each month (ours was a run-down little Presbyterian chapel, its white paint stripped in parts by sea foam and salt air) but otherwise thought little of religion. That was probably why things didn’t work out with my mother, who thought a great deal about religion (but of course, made an exception when signing the divorce papers).

1910 Halley's Comet
Named after astronomer Edmond Halley, Halley's Comet only passes by Earth every 76 years or so. When it buzzed our planet in 1910, it sparked a lot of interest — according to Wired.com, telescope sales skyrocketed as the comet neared. Hotels even offered special deals, so people could gather on top of their roofs to watch the meteor pass.

Is Alcohol Good Is Killing Germs?
If you are not prepared to wash your hands with at least 20 seconds of soap and water, the CDC suggests using alcohol-based hand sanitizers that contain at least 60 percent ethyl alcohol (listed as "ethanol," "ethyl alcohol", "isopropanol" or "2-propanol" on the label). The FDA has also put some of these products on import warnings in Mexico, which can help prevent products that appear to violate these regulations from entering the US until the FDA reviews product safety.

How much important is the moon to us?
At one time there was no moon on the earth and the earth only orbited the sun. But a lucky co-incidence changes the future of the world. This is exactly the moment when something terrible happens and a new beautiful creation is created and an unknown object called Mars collides with the earth. As a result of the collision, some of the planet's debris and some of the Earth's particles and dust move around the Earth's orbit, and due to the Earth's gravity they come together and take on a shape that we call the moon today.

A Look At Pakistan
The Holy Land is the land that came into being through many sacrifices and faithfulness. This is the country which the Almighty has enriched with natural resources. In the land of gold, flowers of all colors and all kinds of crops are produced. In the land of this beautiful homeland, flowing rivers, delicious fruits, skyscrapers and flowing waterfalls add four moons to its beauty. Pakistan is a beautiful country with some parts of the world offering a picture of paradise.

Deepest Ocean In The World- Pacific Ocean
The oceans are home to some of the world's most diverse living things and contain the deepest depths of humanity. While many oceans are still awaiting exploration, human activities such as industrial fishing, deep-sea mining, and the burning of mineral oil are drastically changing oceans. Current environmental problems include oil pollution in the Philippine and South China Sea.
