#1 Karl Denninger's take on Germany's recent actions: It appears that the German Government has just plain had enough of the crap that the banksters have tried to pull, and has decided to do what Barack Obama should have done in early 2009.

#6 TD Ameritrade clients unable to log in, trade
NEW YORK Some clients of online brokerage T.D. Ameritrade Holding Corp. were unable to log into their accounts during today's market slide.

With the Dow Jones industrial average and other major indexes exceeding 3 percent declines, the company posted the following message on the site: "We are having technical difficulties that may result in limited access to your account. We are working to correct this problem as quickly as possible. We apologize for any inconvenience."
I'm sure George Soros is having no trouble carrying out his trades.
