Happy landings: Saint Barthélemy, nicknamed St. Bart’s, in the Leeward Islands of the northeastern Caribbean Sea, is home to a challenging airport. Pilots intending to land at the Gustaf III Airport require special training and certification. That’s because there is a big hill at one end of the short runway and a beach at the other, along with considerable air turbulence. Big jets don’t land on the 650-meter (2,133-ft.) runway, but the airport is heavily used by smaller planes. Pilots do not receive takeoff and landing clearance from air traffic controllers. Rather, they use the Automatic Flight Information Service to obtain information. Long ride: Canadian Chris Bruckner took on a huge challenge. He cycled all the way across Canada. Starting on the west coast in the city of Vancouver, he made it to the city of Halifax on the east coast, a distance of over 5,700 kilometers (3,500 mi.). A paramedic who trained hard for the trek, Bruckner made the distance in 13 days, three hours and 49 minutes, possibly break- ing the record. The race was a time trial in which a cyclist tries to cover the distance as quickly as possible. Bruckner, who had a team keeping track of his time, used the race to raise money for the Canadian Mental Health Association. Doll crazy: A couple from Krasnoyarsk, Russia, are known worldwide for their ability to create realistic dolls. Anastasiya and Sergey Lutsenko are trained artists who use their talents to give their dolls amazingly realistic details, such as freckles and elaborate hairstyles. Each unique, handmade creation can take weeks or even months to complete. Both trained in classical art, the couple researched to find the best materials to use. Doll collectors love the results of the Lutsenkos’ work so much that they pay thousands to acquire one of their masterpieces. Sitting sport: An unusual sport is played in the Netherlands called Paalzitten, or pole sitting. It is as it sounds: competitors sit on top of poles to see who will last the longest before getting bored, tired, or numb. The long poles are outfitted with a seat and a backrest, and they are placed in water, which reduces injury if someone accidentally falls off. Competitors are allowed to take bathroom breaks every now and then. The history of Paalzitten is unknown, but it is thought to have started in the Dutch province of Friesland. Today, it is more of a tourist attraction than a sport. Quoteable Quotes Quoteable Quotes “No snowflake in an avalanche ever feels responsible.” —Stanislaw Jerzy Lee “The traveler who has once been from home is wiser than he who has never left his own doorstep.” —Margaret Mead What’s Happening Trivia 1.

Everybody’s Talking!Anonymous winner: When someone wins a lottery, it’scommon for pictures of the lucky person to be taken and pub-licized. But a Jamaican woman decided she didn’t want to berecognized after she won $1.4 million (USD) in a lottery.During the presentation of her large check, the woman, knownas N. Gray, donned an enormous, round, yellow, smiling emojimask, complete with a winking eye. There is no way anyonewould ever recognize her! The woman, who won the money ina Super Lotto game, told organizers that she plans to carry onwith life as usual. She won’t quit her job, but she may go on acruise just for fun.Saving the child: A brave ex-soldier from Huaihua, HunanProvince (China), completed a daring civilian rescue after hesaw a child in danger on a fifth floor window of an apartmentcomplex. Zhang Xin used window grill bars to climb to thechild, who was dangling precariously, while worried onlookerswatched from below. Some of the onlookers managed to get atarp in place beneath him in case he fell, but he didn’t! Uponreaching the fifth floor, he managed to push the crying toddlerback into the apartment. Furry baby: When fully grown, a bear is unlikely to be mistakenfor a dog. But what about when they are babies? A man fromYongsheng County, Yunnan Province (China), did just that.When he was out looking for wild mushrooms, he came across alittle puppy, or so he thought. He took the pup home andlooked after it, but must have realized something was amisswhen the puppy grew into a very large Asian bear, which is aprotected species. The man kept the bear in a cage, but tookgood care of it. Someone reported him, and authorities claimedthe bear. The man was not fined because he was cooperativeand the bear was in good health.Escaped pigs: A security camera revealed that, in the middle ofthe night, two pigs appeared at a gas station in Upper Coomera,Queensland (Australia). When the sun came up, the porky beastsgreeted amused customers and staff, many of whom took photos.The pigs spent several hours checking out people and cars.They also enjoyed rutting around in a garden before taking anap. It turns out that the friendly, but mischievous, pair had gottenaway from their owner’s home, located not far from the gasstation. The owner soon arrived on the scene to pick up thetwo curly-tailed beasts.

Everybody’s Talking!Happy landings: Saint Barthélemy, nicknamed St. Bart’s, inthe Leeward Islands of the northeastern Caribbean Sea, is hometo a challenging airport. Pilots intending to land at the Gustaf IIIAirport require special training and certification. That’s becausethere is a big hill at one end of the short runway and a beach atthe other, along with considerable air turbulence. Big jets don’tland on the 650-meter (2,133-ft.) runway, but the airport isheavily used by smaller planes. Pilots do not receive takeoff andlanding clearance from air traffic controllers. Rather, they usethe Automatic Flight Information Service to obtain information.Long ride: Canadian Chris Bruckner took on a huge challenge.He cycled all the way across Canada. Starting on the west coastin the city of Vancouver, he made it to the city of Halifax on theeast coast, a distance of over 5,700 kilometers (3,500 mi.).A paramedic who trained hard for the trek, Bruckner made thedistance in 13 days, three hours and 49 minutes, possibly break-ing the record. The race was a time trial in which a cyclist tries tocover the distance as quickly as possible. Bruckner, who had ateam keeping track of his time, used the race to raise money forthe Canadian Mental Health Association.Doll crazy: A couple from Krasnoyarsk, Russia, are knownworldwide for their ability to create realistic dolls. Anastasiyaand Sergey Lutsenko are trained artists who use their talents togive their dolls amazingly realistic details, such as freckles andelaborate hairstyles. Each unique, handmade creation can takeweeks or even months to complete. Both trained in classicalart, the couple researched to find the best materials to use. Dollcollectors love the results of the Lutsenkos’ work so much thatthey pay thousands to acquire one of their masterpieces.Sitting sport: An unusual sport is played in the Netherlandscalled Paalzitten, or pole sitting. It is as it sounds: competitors siton top of poles to see who will last the longest before gettingbored, tired, or numb. The long poles are outfitted with a seatand a backrest, and they are placed in water, which reducesinjury if someone accidentally falls off. Competitors are allowedto take bathroom breaks every now and then. The history ofPaalzitten is unknown, but it is thought to have started in theDutch province of Friesland. Today, it is more of a touristattraction than a sport.
