Canon Tells Employees To Go Home And Make Babies

According to Japan’s Ministry of Health, Labor and Welfare, Japan’s birth rate is currently ranked at 1.34 which is significantly below the necessary birth rate to maintain Japan’s population. It is believed that a 12-hour workday is partly to blame.

Keidanren, Japan’s largest business group, has pleaded with its 1,300 major international corporate members to start allowing their respective employees to go home early in an attempt to help Japanese families cope with its pressing social problems.

Canon, a member of Keidanren, has stepped up to the plate and will let their employees go home early twice a week in an effort to combat Japan’s shrinking population. Canon’s 5:30 p.m. “Lights-Out” program will also help to reduce overtime costs.

Exterminated: John Scott Martin, the Actor Who Played Lead Dalek in 110 Episodes, Dies

John Scott Martin, the actor who played the lead Dalek between 1964 and 1980 in the hit television series ‘Dr Who’ has died of unspecified causes. During his 110 episodes he exterminated five Doctor Whos. Martin had been suffering from Parkinson’s.

“The Daleks were a great success. They were the first real robotic bad guys and the first screen monsters where you didn’t realize there was a person inside,” said Martin in an interview before his death.

In addition to his role as a Dalek Martin also featured in ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ and ‘Pink Floyd The Wall’. He is survived by his wife Margaret and daughter Catriona. His wife paid tribute to a fun man who loved people and was loved in return.

14-Year-Old Boy Successfully Fools Police, Patrols on the Beat for Five Hours

A 14-year-old boy has caused embarrassment to the Chicago Police Department after he put on a faux police uniform, posed as a police officer, and was put on patrol for five hours before anyone noticed.

Police officials announced an investigation into what they described as a serious breach of security. The boy, who aspires to be a police officer, did not issue any tickets or drive the squad car. He has been charged with impersonating an officer.

He was eventually discovered when someone noticed his uniform lacked one of the stars featured on a regulation police uniform. He had been part of a programme designed to promote policing among youth, which meant he had some formal knowledge.

Man Slices Off Finger in Court Over Debt

Orico Silva, a Portuguese businessman, decided to cut off one of his fingers with a butcher’s knife after being ordered by a judge to sell off part of his farm to pay off his debt despite Silva having enough money to cover the 170,000 euro debt.

A distraught Silva then proceeded to cut off his own index finger using a butcher’s knife he had purchased earlier at a market. He had hoped to cover the papers in blood in an attempt to prevent the expropriation order for his land.

“I freaked out when the judge refused my offer to pay the debt and ordered the sale of part of my land,” Silva said. “I didn’t feel anything, I could even have cut off all my fingers. It was an act of despair.” he concluded.
