On Forex trading software

I have to admit, it's a sign of the times that ordinary people even have access to the Interbank foreign exchange markets, where banks buy and sell currency crosses nearly 24/7. I think it does close down for part of the weekend. Otherwise, you can sit in front of your computer and make money trading the forex market every minute of every day. Of course. human beings can't do that for long, and human beings make mistakes, so smart programmers have created Forex trading software. If it works with your trading platform or your forex brokerage account, you can let the software do your buying and selling for you, while you play poker online. Or sleep. Or go to your day job. Or even talk to your wife or husband. Or even watch a movie or go out to a party. You can wake up in the morning and find out you made over $1,000 while you were sleeping.

On rugs

Ultimate Fitness by Gina Kolata is an interesting, informative book, but is far from living up to its title. It's not the ultimate anything on fitness. She mentions yoga once or twice. She goes into lots of detail about Spinning, but doesn't mention Pilates at all. She extols weightlifting, but ignores body weight exercises except to allege Charles Atlas really lifted weight. So according to her you should be at the gym, not home on your rugs. She begins by being scornful of people who want to get fit through slight amounts of exercise. She ends by pointing out studies showing that small amounts of moderate exercise do go the longest way toward improving your health. But does say that if you want greater strength and fitness you need intensity.
