Everybody’s TalkingJumbo jigsaw: A jigsaw puzzle maker decided to challenge puzzle aficionados with what is dubbed the “world’s largest puzzle.” Made by Kodak, the puzzle has over 51,000 pieces that make 27 different scenes of photographers’ images, such as Venice, the Colosseum, and the Taj Mahal. When all the completed images are put together, the final product measures 18.5 ft. by 6.25 ft. Alternatively, the scenes, which each measure 39 in. by 24 in., can be kept separate for those who don’t have the space to display the entire thing as one gigantic wall hanging.Candid shot: Arshad Khan comes from a family of tea makers in Islamabad, Pakistan. The young man’s life changed one day when a professional photographer caught him in a candid photo serving a cup of tea in the family’s tea stall. The photo, which revealed Khan’s bright blue eyes and handsome face, ended up going viral on social media. Next thing he knew, Khan had modeling gigs and appearances on variety shows. All the attention was a bit much for the young chiawala (tea maker), and he stepped back from the limelight to once again go about his daily business with his family. He hopes to open his own café someday.Owly neighbors: Finding a pigeon’s nest on a balcony might be a common sight, but Jos Baart of the Netherlands found something far stranger – and more amazing. A mother Eurasian eagle owl chose a planter outside the third-floor window of Baart’s home to lay her eggs. Soon, three baby owls hatched. The Eurasian eagle owl is one of the world’s largest, and Baart is getting a close-up look at the babies as they grow. The fluffy trio of young owl chicks loves to stare through the window to watch Baart’s TV. When grown, these owls can have wingspans between 5 to 6.5 ft. wide.Sunken treasure: A little boy from Johns Island, South Carolina, had just begun his new hobby of magnet fishing when he found a sunken treasure. Knox Brewer was using a magnet on a string to find metal objects deep in Whitney Lake. He was surprised to find that he’d connected with a small safe, which he hauled out of the water. His father, Jonathan, called the police, who discovered that the safe had been stolen from a neighbor’s home several years earlier. There were just a few things left inside, and Knox returned the items to the rightful owner, who was grateful.

Did You Know...Viking site: L’Anse aux Meadows, in Canada’s eastern province of Newfoundland, is a Viking village that was settled by Europeans in about 1000 AD. Eight original, simple sod buildings have been protected; replicas stand in their place for visitors to see.Fingerprints: Koalas have something in common with humans. They have similar fingerprints. Humans and koalas both have whirling ridges for fingerprints that even scientists have trouble differentiating.Time change: There are 11 time zones in Russia. That means people are having breakfast on the western side of the country when people are going to bed on the eastern side.Take a hike: Lac Blanc, near Chamonix in western France, is a must-see for visitors to the area. Located high in mountainous terrain, this cold, beautiful lake is accessible via hiking trails, with a gondola available that takes riders part of the way.Fateful meeting: John Lennon and Paul McCartney of the famed British rock group, The Beatles, met in 1957.
