1. While my tinfoil cap has become a full hooded cape,
I'm not sure that it's possible to keep the market up -- I've seen a lot of fluctuational periods over the years -- so many people buying/selling all day long via the internet. As with so many other things online, people become obsessed with their particular tasking and just can't leave it alone for more than a few hours at a time. With all of the markets worldwide, one can indulge in market trading nearly 24 hours/day.

Mystery of German exploding toads



The toads of Altona are dying in their thousands
Toads in an area of northern Germany are being killed off by a mysterious disease - they are exploding.

Thousands of the amphibians have died in recent days in a pond in Hamburg's Altona district, with their bodies swelling to bursting point.

The toads' entrails are propelled for up to a metre (3.2ft), in scenes that have been likened to science fiction.

Scientists are baffled. Possible explanations include a unknown virus or a fungus in the pond.
