ALBANY, Ore. (AP) — Albany police say that on the day of the Civil War football game this week, a duck was found spray-pointed orange, the color of the Oregon State Beavers. Its legs were bound with duct-tape.

The Oregon Ducks won the game Thursday, and the male mallard has survived.

But the Albany Democrat-Herald reports the duck will spend the winter at a wildlife rehabilitation center near Corvallis, home of the Beavers.

Jeff Picton of the Chintimini Wildlife Center says the duck can't be set free because the paint destroyed the water-repellent qualities of its feathers. It couldn't swim.

And, Picton says, removing the paint would do more damage than leaving it on. So, the center will wait until the duck molts and grows new feathers.

WASHINGTON—"This is such an exciting time to be an employer in America," said Labor Secretary Hilda Solis, adding that every single day 6,500 more citizens join America's growing possible workforce. "There's such a massive and diverse pool of job-ready Americans to choose from. And each month the number only gets higher."

WTH?  

Now, I love Morrissey (I'm sure this comes as no surprise to many of you, who've been subjected to my obsessive posting of YouTube videos the past couple months). And I love the Smiths. I love animals, and I try to buy cruelty free whenever I can. And this song is powerful enough that it makes even me consider giving up steaks and burgers.

But really? Who on earth wants "Meat is Murder" as a ringtone?


I mean, and what part? Is it the part where Morrissey is accusing me of murder, is that what the ringtone will be? Or maybe the part with the mooing and the sad guitar background? Or maybe it's the line that chokes me up every time, about how "this beautiful creature must die, it's death for no reason and death for no reason is murder..."

Anyways. Some songs shouldn't be ringtones. And with that, I'm going to bed!

Trainee: This customer is mad because we won't cover an accident that happened before he was insured with us. He won't stop yelling!
Trainer: Ha! He's gonna have to suck eggs on that one! Sucks for him. But seriously, go through the facts and dates with him and explain why we won't cover it. Stay calm and apologize. You can do this!
Trainee, to customer: Thank you for holding. This... uh... Okay. My manager says you have to suck eggs, I'm sorry.

Have you heard of the Croquembouche [CROCK-you-EAM-butchy]? It's a French thing. Well, if not, here's what it's supposed to look like:

So kinda like old, cobweb-wrapped monkey bread. But in a yummy way.

Well, a certain anonymous person - who shall remain unnamed to protect her anonymity - found this gem at a wedding which she may or may not have anonymously attended:


I believe her exact words were, "it looks like some kind of primitive jungle cake being attacked by a swarm of lactating spider-wasps."

Mmmm, lactating spider-wasps...


Well, uh, Jane D. [wink wink], thanks for putting a new spin on these things.

Update: I think it's important to ask yourself a couple of questions before commenting here on Cake Wrecks:
Question: Did John and Jen really intend to give us the pronunciation of a word?
Answer: No.
Question: Are John and Jen complete and total idiots?
Answer: No.
Question: Do they...
Answer: No.
Question: Would they...
Answer: No.
Question: What about...
Answer: No.
That is all.

As Kirby Ferguson pointed out on YouTube, Americans do love progress bars.

via DVICE by Charlie White on 11/30/09

Finally, the countdown traffic light

Just one look at this countdown traffic light and you know it's a great idea. A progress bar on a stop light? We're on board with that. Besides alleviating frustration, designer Damjan Stanković sees his idea saving energy — when motorists know there's plenty of time until the light turns green, they'll shut their engines off to conserve fuel.

This design concept should be immediately implemented on every traffic signal in the world. Maybe the countdown feature could be used on the yellow and green lights, too. This can't be difficult to make, either, since many traffic lights are already using LEDs that could be easily rearranged.
