UPDATE on [2013-05-17: Huge Blaze in the historical Center of Landeck, Austria. The fire starte around 2 AM in a vacant building and spread to neighboring houses. Landeck sits at the confluence of two rivers.]
Long story short: The residents of Landeck are now spreading rumors of ANOTHER Feuerteufel (German for firebug), because nobody has a clue, what started all the fires that have been fought there. (4 in the last few days)
I read so many stories like that in the last weeks and I rarely if ever posted one of them, because I thought it was too much of a stretch. But seriously...how many people addicted and committed to setting stuff on fire can there be? Almost every day I read about series of events, that are attributed to a 'Feuerteufel'. I think I'll post more of those from now on.

SPOTLIGHT STORY
2013-05-17: DEAD SILVER CARPS IN LAKE HEYDA TALSPERRE
Yesterday the results from the Loeffler Institute came in. They say the carps died of OLD AGE! Well, I've said this like two weeks ago here in the comments. These fish, born in Asia, were put in that lake (and others too) in the 1980s. They cannot procreate in Germany (water too cold) so it's a no-brainer, that they eventually die off. The odd thing about this... ALL of them died in the same year. While all of the carps had been BORN in the same year, I don't really believe it is common for them to all DIE in the same year too.
Another thing about that story: The carps haven't been the only species in that lake - yet they're the only ones that died en masse. A commentator (Carphunter1972) on the t-online website stated, that carps are botton-feeders. They're mostly close to the ground, where the organic waste from surrounding fields accumulates, brought there by the rain. Now, that is a far more plausible cause, than the official one. Of course, it could also be, that an abnormal amount of H2S has been released into the lake somehow from underground... I guess we'll never know for sure. I'll keep my eyes on that and similar stories, though.
