Baghdad hotel bombings toll rises



BAGHDAD // At least 24 people were killed today and 42 wounded in a series of car bombs in downtown Baghdad, police said. The first explosion struck at about 3:40pm in the car park of the Sheraton Hotel, toppling high concrete blast walls protecting the site and damaging a number of buildings along the Abu Nawas esplanade, two Iraqi police officials said. Two other blasts followed minutes later, striking near the Babylon Hotel and Al Hamra Hotel, which is popular with Western journalists. The attacks ended a one and half month lull in co-ordinated assaults on the Iraqi capital as the war-scarred country heads into national elections in March. * Reuters and AP

2. They can be created when massive stars collapse under their own weight

3. Large black holes can also be formed when smaller ones collide and merge

4. The biggest black holes lurk at the centre of many galaxies, including our own

5. Astronomers believe that when the universe was very young, black holes affected how galaxies formed

How to increase your savings
  • Have a plan for your savings.
  • Decide on your emergency fund target and once that's achieved, assign your savings to another financial goal such as saving for a house or investing for retirement.
  • Decide on a financial goal that is important to you and put your savings to work for you.
  • It's important to have a purpose for your savings as it helps to keep you motivated to continue while also reducing the temptation to spend your savings.
