Everybody’s Talking Donations Needed Mommy's boy: Some people will go to great lengths to help their parents in a time of need. In Brazil, a man named Heitor Schiave took it one step too far: he dressed up as his mother so he could take her driver's test on her behalf. His mother hadn't had much luck herself, having failed three times. So Schiave put on women's clothing and a wig, wore lots of makeup, and tried to talk in his mother's voice. However, the disguise did not fool Aline Mendonca, the examiner, who realised that the woman taking the test did not look like the woman pictured on her identification. Schiave was arrested for fraud.

New wave furniture: Gavin Munro is a maker of furniture - but he doesn't use carpentry tools to do it. Instead, he trains the trees on his farm to grow into the form of chairs, tables, and other pieces. The result is very artistic. Located near Derby in England, his farm has oak, willow, ash and sycamore trees. When the trees are just saplings he uses molds to make them grow a certain way. To attain his final product he also prunes and grafts the trees' branches. It takes a long time for a piece of furniture to be made in this fashion – between four and eight years. Stolen goods: A woman in St. Paul, Minnesota USA, was miffed when she discovered that a package she ordered had been stolen from her porch. Hilary Smith received a text saying that the package which contained a phone charger had been delivered, so she expected to find it upon arriving home from work. In its place was a handwritten note thanking her for leaving the package on her porch so it could be stolen. The thief signed the note, “The new owner of your package.” Police in the area are warning residents to have parcels delivered when someone is home to receive them.

Beautiful harvest: Some farmers in Bangladesh work in an environment of great beauty - at least during the time of harvest. These farmers collect water lily blossoms in the Canal of Water Lilies in the country's Barisal district. They paddle their long wooden boats through a sea of green leaves and deep pink water lily flowers, collecting the blossoms as they go. Collection is done carefully and by hand. These blossoms are a popular item at local markets, where the farmers go to sell their floral gems.
