| The Longest Tree Top Walk in the World Posted: 14 Nov 2012 04:39 PM PST At 144 feet high, the longest tree top walk on the planet resides at the Bavarian Forest National Park in Neuschonau, Germany. The walk is intended for any nature lovers who are feeling adventurous. The path is actually 1,300 meters long (0.8 miles), and it culminates with a 44 meter high tree tower that is built around and above 3 giant, old 38 meter fir trees.

| Venice Submerged by Record Flooding Posted: 14 Nov 2012 04:02 PM PST The canals of Italy's famous city of Venice have been drenched by heavy rain, sending water levels soaring to near record highs. With a metre-and-a-half of water, 80 per cent of Venice was flooded at the peak of high tide. The flooding could see the water levels rise up to two metres above sea level.

| Twins in the Classroom [Infographic] Posted: 14 Nov 2012 10:47 AM PST If you think you're seeing double, you're right. The rate of twin births in the U.S has skyrocketed—rising 76 percent from 1980 through 2009 and still rising. As more twins enter school every year, teachers and parents work together to create the best educational environment for multiple-birth children. The most basic question that arises among parents and teachers when twins enter school: Should twins be placed in separate classrooms or allowed to be in the same class? Compelling arguments abound on both sides of the issue. Some experts and parents feel that because of the strong bond most twins develop, it could be traumatizing to separate them during the school day. Others believe that separating twins allows them to foster a stronger sense of self identity. A solution that works for one set of twins won't necessarily work for another. While some school districts have policies forbidding the placement of twins in the same class, others don't. A law was passed in North Carolina last year leaving the final decision of whether or not to place twins in the same or different classes up to the parents, and other jurisdictions have similar laws in place. Some parents still don't have a choice when considering whether or not their twins should be placed in separate classes, but for those that do have a choice, there are some key points to take into consideration.
