There was an incredible story on the Internet about a woman who bought the sun and also has Tarzan's scream to her name as well as the longest recorded sheet music in the world.

Apparently, the owner of the sun is Ángeles Durán, who claims to have bought the Sun on eBay. Surprisingly, making use of her knowledge, in 2010 she obtained a notarial deed that literally declares her, "owner of the Sun. But she finally took legal action against a major e-commerce company and citizens have held her responsible for burns and skin cancer caused by the sun.

After the lawsuit, Durán, accused those who sued her of being people with little "knowledge of Law." It seems that they have not reached any agreement since 2010 and it is presumed that she still maintains the dispute in a court in Spain.

Hello teacher, I haven't written to you in a long time! I've been thinking about what to do on my next vacation, and I thought I'd take advantage of my free time and do some volunteer work with several friends from college. It could be my only opportunity to get to know new countries, meet new people, and be able to help those who need it most and it would look good on my CVI to do a postgraduate degree later. There's a site called UNHCR and they have some amazing things you can do, like work to protect people who had to flee their country and provide protection. The only problem is that I must have a minimum of two years of relevant work experience in order for me to apply. What do you think about this volunteering, do you think I should try it or should I find another one? I hope you can answer me soon as I need your advice please.
