Black and white twins – one in a million
Parents in Germany are welcoming a
very rare set of twins, the first baby was born is called Ryan, and he
has light skin and blue eyes like his father. His brother, Leo, has dark
skin with brown eyes like his mother.
“None of us could believe it,” the
maternity ward’s head doctor, Birgit Weber, told one news source. “Both
kids have definitely the same father.”
Stephan Gerth is German and white. His wife, Florence Addo-Gerth, is from Ghana and has dark skin.
It was “a real surprise,” Gerth told the German newspaper Die Welt, adding that the most important thing to him isn’t color, but that everyone is healthy.

Doctors say that the odds are one in a
million to get twins with different skin color, but they have also said
it can happen due to genetic soup in our backgrounds.
The twins are in a good health condition and live in Berlin, Germany.
5 Of The World’s Most Intelligent People
Sir Isaac Newton:
explain how objects move on Earth as well
as through the heavens. If you ever taken a physics you would learn
about his three popular laws, and you may hear the apply story that led
him to discover the theory of force and gravity. He basically saw an
apply fall in his orchard at some time during 1665 or 1666 that Newton
conceived that the same force governed the motion of the Moon and the
apple. He calculated the force needed to hold the Moon in its orbit, as
compared with the force pulling an object to the ground. He also
calculated the centripetal force needed to hold a stone in a sling, and
the relation between the length of a pendulum and the time of its swing.
These early explorations were not
soon exploited by Newton, though he
studied astronomy and the problems of planetary motion.. Because he was
cleaver in math, he invited the area of mathematics called calculus “used to be called method of fluxions“.
While still a student, Newton read recent work on optics and light by
the English physicists Robert Boyle and Robert Hooke; he also studied
both the mathematics and the physics of the French philosopher and
scientist René Descartes. All these amazing discoveries made his take our number one of the world’s most intelligent people.

The Highest IQs On Record
These smartest people were picked based
on their IQ (Intelligence quotient) test. IQ, is a score derived from
one of several different standardized tests designed to assess
intelligence. The purpose of the test is measure the mental ability and
horse power of the brain for any person. I have noticed that many of
these people are Chess players and champions. I don’t know if there is
any link between intelligence and chess, but this is my observations.
Many of my resources confirmed the name and the IQ score for each of the
people on the list. There were couple of other names with high IQ score
but I couldn’t really confirm that 100%. Note: All these people are
still alive as of 2010. IQ scores reflect general capacity for
performing intellectual tasks, such as solving verbal and mathematical
problems.
The average IQ score is 100. The standard deviation of IQ scores is 15. So, this means:- 50% of people have IQ scores between 90 and 110
- 2.5% of people are very superior in intelligence (over 130)
- 2.5% of people are mentally deficient / impaired / retarded (under 70)
- 0.5% of people are near genius or genius (over 140)
- 115-124 – Above average (e.g., university students)
- 125-134 – Gifted (e.g., post-graduate students)
- 135-144 – Highly gifted (e.g., intellectuals)
- 145-154 – Genius (e.g., professors)
- 155-164 – Genius (e.g., Nobel Prize winners)
- 165-179 – High genius
- 180-200 – Highest genius
- >200 – “Unmeasurable genius”
