Village uses ducks to stop speeding

Postmistress Ann Martin, 63, from Portesham, Dorset, has recruited a 'quack' squad after she noticed motorists driving more carefully when the birds were around. The grandmother trained the ducks to appear at the side of the road during the morning and afternoon rush hours. As soon as motorists see the birds, they hit the brakes to avoid running them over. The flock, which includes 20 ducks and four geese, even braves crossing the road to get to the post office to be fed. Mrs Martin said: 'Drivers use the village as a rat-run – it's like the M1 here at rush hour. The sight of ducks seems to be the only thing that gets them to slow down.' Local councillor Tommy Bartlett said: 'It's true, the ducks and geese slow down the cars. The geese sometimes stop in the middle of the road. That certainly puts a stop to the rush.'

Bad Santa ... Santa Clauses in shopping centers across Australia have been told to replace "ho ho ho" with "ha ha ha" because the traditional hearty bellow might frighten shoppers' children.

SANTAS working in shopping centers across Australia have been banned from bellowing "ho ho ho" because it might frighten children.
Recruitment firm Westaff, which supplies hundreds of Santa’s around the country, yesterday confirmed the edict. Westaff national operations manager Glen Jansz said the company's Santa’s had been urged to tone down their use of the "ho, ho, ho" phrase. "The reason behind that is we find that in some cases the little kids can get a little bit scared of the deep 'ho, ho, ho’s and we ask them to be mindful of keeping their voices to a lower level," he said. "And kids are probably more inclined to understand 'ha, ha, ha', than 'ho, ho, ho'." Thirty trainees at a recent Santa course were instructed to replace the traditional Christmas greeting with "ha, ha, ha". A Santa veteran of 11 years told the Sunday Herald Sun the instructions were clear: "No 'ho ho ho'.""We were told to say 'ha ha ha Merry Christmas'," he said. Two Santa hopefuls reportedly left the course after the edict. Family Council of Victoria spokesman Bill Muehlenberg described the ban as "nonsensical". "Potentially any big guy in a red suit with a white beard is scary but I don't think him saying 'ho ho ho' would damage a child's psyche. "Let's just concentrate on the kids having a good time." A survey of Melbourne children yesterday found universal support for Santa's "ho ho ho". "It's silly, we love hearing Santa's laugh," said Briony, 8, of Mitcham. "It doesn't frighten me at all. It's what Santa is supposed to say," said Byron, 9, of Melton. Yesterday in the Bourke St Mall, Santa’s appeared to be ignoring orders to stop the 'ho ho hos'. David Jones's bellowed to a delighted group of children and rival Myer's Santa also kept up the jolly tradition.

America's Veterans
They are being Honored at Vietnam Memorial Wall 25 Years Later
WASHINGTON — They are lined up like footnotes to the names etched on the Vietnam Veterans Memorial's polished black granite, leaning against its base, some a collective tribute to the fallen, others bearing a message for just one of the dead.
