Is it a "distinctive and desirable" keepsake or merely an altered coin designed to "snatch money" from collectors? So goes the debate over "Freedom Pack," a serially numbered commemorative half dollar being sold by the American Numismatic Association.
Earlier this year, the ANA hired a private company to add a serial number and initials to thousands of 1993 Bill of Rights commemorative half dollars made by the U.S. Mint. Those coins now are being offered to collectors for $19.95 each (plus $2.50 per order for shipping) on behalf of the ANA and the James Madison Memorial Fellowship Foundation.

Let's Fight Ghost: Final Match
And the final episode of Let's Fight Ghost is out. We were left in a horrible cliffhanger so it's time to see how things unfold. Are you ready? Let's have our final match.
We have a fallen monk and professor, evil spirt lurking around to get a hold of Bong Pal, but Hyun Ji finally finds the weapon and throws it at Bong Pal, who grabs it, takes the bracelet in his hand and throws his strongest and deadliest punch at the spirit with it, finally destroying the evil spirit.
Bong Pal runs to the monk, scared he might be dead and he accepts that when there's no answer, but thankfully, the monk is still alive, just very wounded and exhausted. And not only him, but also the professor. He survived! Now the police can take him and it looks like he remembers what happened all these years and is aware of his doings, so he takes full responsibility, accepting his crimes. His mother, however, stays by his side this time.
Now that things have calmed and the enemy has been destroyed, it's time for domestic love. Hyun Ji needs to leave and her mother states clearly she doesn't want Bong Pal near Hyun Ji, it's too risky and she needs to focus on her studies. He understands so they part ways, keeping in touch as she studies hard to enter the same university he did.
Hyun Ji takes her exams and she continues dealing with ghosts, very much like Bong Pal did before, without fear and kicking their asses so they leave her alone.
At first, it seems she failed, she tells that to Bong Pal and he is sad but tries to be supportive and tells her he can even put on hold this year for her and all. Cute little man. But in fact, Hyun Ji did make it and when Bong Pal is invited to the welcome party, he finds her there. Our boy has changed, now he socialises and doesn't reject his classmates.
Hyun Ji gets the boys' attentions as the prettiest girl, and when they ask her if she has a boyfriend, she says yes and that he's there, only looking at surprised Bong Pal. Aren't they the cutest?
The lives of the others carry on pretty normally, Il Rang graduated and the future of Sundae Soup with just Chun Sang and Bong Pal is in danger, the sunbae is desperately trying to get new members but Bong Pal isn't interested in exorcisms anymore. Il Rang is trying to get the business out there, for real, but it's not going well. Monk Myung Chul also continues his life but with our changed Bong Pal, now he is asked to live with the young boy as the monk is all the family Bong Pal has left. Monk is touched and agrees.
Yay for family time!
Hyun Ji is asked to join a blind date group, and although she has a boyfriend, she is persuaded just for the college experience that it is. However, she doesn't tell the truth to Bong Pal and he finds through Il Rang. He's all jealous, going to pick her up and stating he's the boyfriend, but she already did that so it wasn't a surprise.
Bong Pal walks his girlfriend home and when he finds out her mother is in town, he gathers the courage to formally ask for her blessing to date Hyun Ji. The mother looks reluctant and it's made to look like she refuses, but then we learn she approved and both Hyun Ji and Bong Pal are so delighted.
As part of the college experience, Hyun Ji gets jealous of Sunbae Seo Yeon and even calls Bong Pal oppa, which the boy absolutely loves, although she's technically older than him. Then she is approached by a surprising cameo: Dae Young (played by Yoon Doo Joo) from Let's Eat, having his typical food speech and trying to get Hyun Ji in his club. But Chun Sang comes to the rescue. Not Hyun Ji's rescue, the Sundae Soup Club's rescue. He dramatically gives her the presentation to join when Bong Pal arrives, not entertained so he takes her away.
Chun Sang and Il Rang follow them, asking them to join and continue exorcising or the former will lose his arms and legs at Il Rang's grandmother's hand. But our couple don't need the money anymore, so they refuse.
Later, when Bong Pal talks to Monk Myung Chul he asks why this was so against Bong Pal exorcising. The monk explains he knew Bong Pal was angry before at every ghost and that wasn't good, because not all ghosts are bad. Bong Pal is reminded of all those cases where the ghosts just wanted help, comfort. It's evidence that not all ghosts are evil. Bong Pal's sight isn't a curse, but a gift.
And that changes his mind so now when Chun Sang gets a new job, our kickass couple joins them and it's the four of them again!
Hyun Ji asks Bong Pal why he changed his mind and he explains because he wants to find out why they can see ghosts, whether that's for helping humans and ghosts alike or not. So they go against this ghost, shouting a strong and loud "Let's fight ghosts!" and off they go, to a new journey.
Well, wasn't that a cute ending? I like how it closes all the conflicts but at the same time it's open, leaving our leads where they started but as new people. It's beautiful, I think.
The final episode was a breath after so much tension, and no one died! I'm so happy for that. There are enough ghosts already, we don't need more, right? I loved all the domestic cutesy and how everything was wrapped up. Didn't you? I'm happy for all of them.
Oh boy, I loved this K-drama so much and I'll miss it terribly. What about you? What are your final thoughts on Let's Fight Ghost? Let's share on the comments.
And once again, thank you for reading these recaps. Now you can marathon the whole series!

I made fire!
I worked with a group to make a Halloween display for St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. The theme was the Mad Hatter's Tea Party. We needed a flame for our fireplace, and I offered to make it. I make fire!
I took our house fan, and created tissue-paper flames.
I placed the flames so that when the air blew, the flames blew and made a fire-log sound. See it on this video:
Here's the completed scene with my flames!

Schedule your campus visit today!
Marian University will celebrate its 78th Commencement at 10 a.m. on Saturday, May 9, 2015. Dennis Bland, president of the Center for Leadership Development, will deliver the Commencement Address, and will also receive an honorary Doctor of Arts and Humane Letters degree.
Marian University has 652 candidates for degrees this year, including students who will receive the Master of Arts in Teaching from the university's Academy for Teaching and Learning Leadership.
The ceremony will be held at St. Vincent Health Field on the Marian University campus. If inclement weather prohibits an outdoor ceremony, festivities will be moved to the Physical Education Center on campus.
Three individuals will receive honorary Doctor of Arts and Humane Letters degrees during the May 9 Commencement Ceremony:
Dennis E. Bland is president of the Center for Leadership Development (CLD) an Indianapolis non-profit organization dedicated to empowering African-American youth for the highest academic, college, and career success. Founded in 1977, CLD offers 15 curriculum-based youth development experiences, as well as the unique College Prep Institute, which help prepare 6,000 youth and parents per year for academic, college, and career achievement. Prior to joining CLD, Dennis practiced law for nine years, specializing in medical malpractice litigation and insurance law.
Christine and Albert J. "Jim" Hackl started their life together on November 22, 1950, and have partners in all endeavors ever since. Jim is a U.S. Navy veteran who served in the Korean War, and enjoyed a successful career with two international manufacturers of air conditioning and heating equipment. In 1968, Jim joined Herff Jones Company in Indianapolis as president and chief executive officer. Over the next 27 years, under Jim's direction, Herff Jones grew from a small publicly held company to a national leader in its industry with several thousand employees and sales representatives and 19 manufacturing facilities across the country. Jim personally directed a merger between Carnation Company and Herff Jones in 1973 and later its emergence as a privately held company in 1985 through a management buy-out from Nestle', S. A. In 1989, Jim initiated and led the establishment of an Employee Stock Ownership Plan (ESOP) whereby Herff Jones employees became the 100 percent owners of Herff Jones providing extraordinary financial and job benefits to thousands of employees for the next 25 years, long after Jim's retirement in 1995. After leaving Herff Jones and having "flunked retirement," Jim established family partnerships for the purchase and operation of pine tree plantations in Florida and Georgia enhancing the environment through the planting of over 8,000,000 pine trees. Together, Jim and Christine were blessed with eight children. Despite the demands of raising a large family, Christine became an accomplished artist in her own right. Further, she managed to find time to be active in charities and in social and community affairs in all locations where the family lived.

To be successful in a rapidly changing world children must be creative and confident
They must be flexible and critical thinkers. They must be schooled in the arts of communication and interpersonal interaction. To feel successful, they must love their curiosity and be happy at school. This is what a Friends School Haverford education provides.
A group of students approach their teacher excitedly. They have discovered what looks like a blob of dried glue about the size of a golf ball attached to the stem of a tomato plant in the garden. What is it? Instead of simply telling the students what it is, the teacher helps the students plan an investigation.
"It looks wet but it is dry," says one child. The students think it might be a cocoon but it isn't round or regular in its shape. Our student experts on monarch butterflies in the kindergarten confirm for the student investigators that this is nothing like any chrysalis they have ever seen. The students measure their find. They photograph it. They look for it in field guides. They are joyous when they find a second one affixed to a tall dry plant stalk near the edge of the playground. With the teacher's permission, the students bring one of the two blobs inside for further study. They keep the blob in a mesh container. They examine it with a hand lens. They make drawings and write descriptions. They chart the number of days since they found it. They note the temperature inside the classroom and outside on the playground daily.
One day, the inside blob hatches! Many, many, many praying mantis babies emerge. Students are fascinated. In the school library they are now able to locate pictures, descriptions, lists of information, and even videos showing praying mantis nymphs emerging from a nest or an egg. What do you call it? "You call it an egg case," says a student who now wants to be an entomologist when she grows up.
By the end of this study the teacher has talked with her students about the scientific method. In their drive to solve the mystery of the blob, they listened attentively as the teacher introduced them to the thought-filled creativity involved in formulating hypotheses and the perils of failing to keep all but one variable constant in an experiment.
"Hands on, minds on," is the essence of our curricula. An intellectually vigorous community, your child and his or her interests are profoundly known. Your child's school day is a series of moments like the one described– engaging, tailored to her or his age, important individually, naturally connected across disciplines to other topics in her or his learning, and a vital component of the much larger framework for understanding the world that we want for our children.
Please explore our program via the links on this page. To learn more, we encourage you to come visit during an open house, or call to schedule a private tour: 610-642-2334.

Disney Interactive Studios today officially unveiled Epic Mickey, a new adventure title staring Mickey Mouse launching exclusively for the Nintendo Wii in fall 2010.
Development is being handled by Junction Point, a Texas-based studio headed by famed game designer Warren Spector. Spector says Epic Mickey will be an "edgy and unexpected" cartoon adventure.
"Mickey is an adventurous and rambunctious mouse," said Spector. "I want to bring his personality to the forefront, place him in a daunting world and connect his spirited character with video game players worldwide. Ultimately, each player decides for him or herself what makes Mickey cool."
The story centers on rival Oswald the Lucky Rabbit - Walt Disney's first cartoon character in 1927 - and his struggles with Mickey's growing popularity. Oswald becomes the first inhabitant of the Cartoon Wasteland, a twisted world created by sorcerer Yen Sid for retired Disney characters. Mickey stumbles upon the Cartoon Wasteland and inadvertently destroys Oswald's world, and is now forced to face his greatest adversaries.
"Having Warren combine creativity and innovation with one of the world's most famous characters takes Mickey back to his creative roots and allows fans to deepen their engagement with him as a character - especially in video games," said Graham Hopper, executive vice president and general manager of Disney Interactive Studios. "In addition to Warren's lifelong love of cartoons, films and comics, his visionary approach to game design and storytelling will make certain that this heroic tale of discovery and redemption resonates with Disney fans and gamers alike."&#Array;
For Epic Mickey's paint brush controls, players will swing the Wii Remote using paint and thinner to "re-shape the world around them," which includes dynamically changing its environments, interacting with other characters, and Mickey's appearance and abilities.
"The core of this game is the idea of choice and consequence, and how that defines both the character and the player," says Spector. "By putting the mischievous Mickey in an unfamiliar place and asking him to make choices - to help other cartoon characters or choose his own path - the game forces players to deal with the consequences of their actions. Ultimately, players must ask themselves, 'What kind of hero am I?' Each player will come up with a different answer."

Recall blow to troubled taxis firm
The troubled maker of famous London taxis has been thrown into further turmoil after it announced plans to recall 400 black cabs and suspend sales after discovering a steering box fault.
Manganese Bronze said it had discovered a defect with new steering boxes in its TX4 models, which were introduced in production at its Coventry factory in late February.
It warned that the recall and sales suspension would have a "material and detrimental" impact on its cashflow and said it was looking at options for the firm.
The news comes as the latest blow to the company, which has been hit by mounting losses and a recent accounting blunder that left it with a £4 million hole in its accounts.
Manganese, which suspended trading of its shares earlier in the day, said it was working with Chinese partner Geely to fix the steering box fault.
But it said: "Until such time that a technical solution is developed to rectify the fault, the financial position of the group remains unclear and trading in the company's shares will remain suspended."

Surfers Against Sewage's (SAS) new campaign Protect Our Waves (POW) is having its first action, The Gathering, a mass paddle out, in association with local campaign group Access BroadBench Association (ABBA).
Surfers from across the nation will paddle out at Kimmeridge Bay at 11am on Saturday the 20th of June, which is International Surfing Day. The action will call on the Secretary of State for Defence to allow surfers' access to Broadbench, a special wave found on the outer boundary of a Ministry of Defence (MoD) firing range.
Broadbench is a quality wave in Kimmeridge Bay, described by many as one of Britain's best. Unfortunately it falls right on the outer boundary of a MoD firing range. SAS are not asking the MoD to reduce their use of this important firing range. However, SAS believe there is a compromise that will ensure surfers and waveriders can have 100% access to Broadbench without impacting on the MoD's full use of the firing range.
We are calling on the Secretary of State for Defence to implement SAS's compromise, changing where the MoD currently fire from. This will in turn change the direction of the MoD's firing and could leave Broadbench outside the boundary of the firing range. It will not impact on the MoD's use of the firing range, leaving surfers and waveriders with 100% access to Broadbench and the MoD full use of their range.
International Surfing Day (ISD), will see surfing events taking place all over the world. There will be events in North and South America, Europe, Asia and Australia but nothing like the Gathering. SAS expect the Gathering to be the best-supported event with mass participation for the paddle out protest on ISD.

The Texas Open Beaches Act has been a star example of beach management since it was first enacted in 1959, providing for free and unrestricted use of the state's beaches and shores.
Unfortunately this forward-thinking law is under constant threat by those who would take the public's rights away. This is one of those times, and we need your help.
Late in the night on May 31st, Rep. Wayne Christian interjected wording from his previously rejected HB4025, which was an attempt to circumvent the TX Open Beaches Act, into HB770, a bill that would have allowed homestead exemption to continue for primary residences that were destroyed in a hurricane until the owner built somewhere else.
Christian has severely compromised this bill by adding wording that would bar the Texas Attorney General or any other entity from filing suit for the removal of a damaged or destroyed structure that found itself on the public beach after a "meteorological event" and allow them to rebuild that structure on the public beach.
This bill, like HB4025, now essentially overturns the Texas Open Beaches Act and will be detrimental to the access to and use of Texas public Beaches.

Minister for Planning Justin Madden today ignored the basic principles of the Victorian Coastal Strategy 2008 when he announced the go ahead for the controversial Bastion Point breakwater and headland development in Mallacoota in the state's far-east.
The Minister also went against his own Panel Report's recommendations which did not support any of the development proposals because they were thought to be unsafe and would have no net economic benefit to society.
Local community action group Save Bastion Point, the Victorian National Parks Association (VNPA) and the Australian Conservation Foundation called on Mr Madden to review his decision because the development was strongly opposed by the community and did not follow the environmental protection principles of the Victorian Coastal Strategy.
Leo op den Brouw, Save Bastion Point spokesperson, said the proposal to build an extensive breakwater, access road on the beach, car park and boating channel was unsustainable and unsafe, and would irreversibly damage the Bastion Point environment and surrounding coastline.
"We are concerned that the removal of more than 3000 cubic metres of reef, to make way for the boating channel, and the addition of more than 8000 tonnes of imported rock, to construct the 130-metre-long breakwater, will disturb tidal flows and damage the marine habitat," he said.
"The permanent sand dredging required to keep the boating channel clear will also impact on marine life and cause unnatural siltation build up.

Full Mouth Reconstruction
Rebuilding Your Smile
Whether through trauma or a lifetime of poor dental health, our smiles can become afflicted with several issues that could eventually lead to tooth loss, or worse. Therefore, restoring your smile to full function and beauty may require more than a single procedure. If you require restorative treatment, than your best option may be full mouth reconstruction, which incorporates more than one procedure to provide the most conservative option.
What is Full Mouth Reconstruction?
A full mouth reconstruction involves a combination of multiple dental procedures to repair and restore your smile, which may include;
The length and number of appointments necessary will depend on the state of your dental health and the specifics of your treatment plan.
- If decay is present, you may require a dental filling or crown, or root canal therapy, in severe cases.
- If you are missing teeth or require tooth extraction as part of the reconstruction process, then we can rebuild your smile using advanced dental implants.
- Custom-made appliances may be necessary for patients struggling with bruxism, TMJ disorder, and occlusal disease.
- Periodontal treatment may also be needed to remove infected tissue and improve gum health, which reduces the risk of tooth loss, sore gums, and other common symptoms of gum disease.
What Can I Expect from a Full Mouth Reconstruction?
The process will begin with a thorough examination. Employing intraoral cameras and DIAGNOdent lasers, we will assess the cause and severity of your dental health issues. Then, we will sit with you to discuss your short- and long-term smile goals. With this information, along with details on your facial esthetics and smile features, we will create a reconstruction plan catered to your specific needs.
Call Pearl Dental Group Today
Dr. Ben Reyhani, and Dr. Pasha Hakimzadeh, DDS, provide a wealth of combined experience, along with innovative technology and personalized care, to help improve our patients' dental health so they can enjoy smiling again. To schedule a consultation, call Pearl Dental Group today at (909) 962-1422.

The Foundation for Government Accountability, an organization launched earlier in the year pushing free-market solutions in the Sunshine State, released a study Tuesday indicating new businesses are one of the leading economic engines in Florida, creating almost 1.5 million jobs from 2005-2009.
Start-up companies are Floridas top job creators, said Tarren Bragdon, a former Maine state legislator who serves as the president and CEO of FGA. Our policies must help start-up entrepreneurs open their doors sooner, hire their first employees quicker and get Floridians back to work.
Joseph Burke, an economist with the FGA, penned Job Growth Overview: Start-Up Companies are Floridas Top Job Creators, which the organization promises will be the first report in their Start-Up Florida series focusing on new businesses and their role in the Sunshine States economy. The FGA noted on Tuesday that upcoming "Start-Up Florida" reports will focus on how state and local governments can help or hinder new businesses in Florida.
Burkes report found that Florida start-ups had created 1.475 million jobs, including more than 788,000 net jobs, which FGA defined as job creation minus job destruction," since 2005. Other companies created just less than 160,000 net jobs during the same period.
The report notes that almost 44,300 new companies were established each year in the Sunshine State during that period but, since 2007, the average number decreased as the economic slowdown continues to hit Florida worse than much of the rest of the nation. The national unemployment rate for November 2011 stood at 8.6 percent. As of October 2011, the last month for which there are statistics, the unemployment rate in Florida stood at 10.3 percent. The state will release the unemployment figures for November on Friday.
Insisting that the unemployment rate would be higher in the Sunshine State without new businesses, the FGA maintains that they will play a large role in getting the states economy back on track.
Promoting start-ups is the key to Floridas economic recovery, Burke noted in the report.Reducing the time and cost it takes entrepreneurs to launch start-ups will encourage job creation and help put more Floridians back to work."
Bragdon highlighted the important role new businesses have in Floridas economy.
The conventional wisdom that small businesses are the key to job creation is incomplete, Bragdon said. To create jobs and help get people back to work requires a complete picture of whats working, and that picture must include start-ups. Start-ups are Floridas top job creators. They are crucial to lifting Florida from this recession.

It's one of the tech industry's greatest guessing games: How many Kindles has Amazon sold? The company has always refused to say — but on Thursday, it offered its first-ever glimpse into actual sales numbers.
"For the third week in a row, customers are purchasing well over 1 million Kindle devices per week," Amazon (AMZN, Fortune 500) crowed on its website.
Dating all the way back to the original Kindle's launch in 2007, Amazon has refused to disclose its actual Kindle sales numbers. It instead issues vague press releases referring to each new version as the "fastest-selling ever." For example, in July Amazon announced that the Kindle's "sales growth rate" had tripled since a price cut — a confusing phrase that led some news outlets to report incorrectly that total Kindle sales had tripled.
Amazon's newest statement isn't exactly a model of transparency. The company doesn't break out figures for each different Kindle, which range from its $79 basic Kindle to its new $199 Kindle Fire tablet.
The closely watched Fire, which aims to undercut the Apple (AAPL,Fortune 500) iPad, began shipping November 15. Amazon's Thursday announcement hyped the Fire as the "#1 bestselling, most gifted, and most wished for product" — with no further details.
Apple, by contrast, routinely discloses its iPad and other device sales numbers. It sold 11 million iPads last quarter and has sold nearly 40 million since the tablet's 2010 debut.
Analysts are closely watching the iPad-vs-Fire horse race to see if Amazon's stripped-down tablet — priced at less than half of Apple's larger and more advanced device — will chip away at Apple's sales or tablet market share.
At least two analysts have predicted that Amazon could sell 5 million Kindle Fires by the end of the year. Thursday's announcement shows Amazon is on track to hit that target … maybe.
But the Fire has garnered early user complaints about slowness, clunky Internet browsing and more. Earlier this week Amazon promised that a forthcoming operating system update will increase speed, improve touchscreen activity and give users controls over displaying recent browsing activity. That over-the-air update will come within two weeks, an Amazon spokeswoman said.
If those improvements can help Amazon can unseat Apple as the tablet king — or even make a dent — it will have done better than other power players whose tablets have flopped critically and commercially.

No University of Tennessee at Chattanooga football player is more eager for practice to start than linebacker Gunner Miller.
The former four-year starter at East Ridge High School not only missed the last three games of 2010, his redshirt freshman season, with a pinched nerve in his left shoulder, but the injury persisted in the offseason and kept him out of contact situations during spring practice, as well.
"I got released this summer by the doctor," the 6-foot-1, 225-pound Miller said. "and actually [getting hurt] might have been a good thing because I've worked harder since I got hurt than I ever have in my life to get back. I feel great right now."
The nerve problem began as a stinger after a hard hit against Elon and "it pretty much just shut my whole arm down," Miller said. For several weeks that limited the kinds of upper-body work he could do in the weight room - no small thing for someone like Miller that would probably live in there if given the opportunity.
Strength coach Scott Brincks said he hasn't seen too many players come through the program with the same level of weight-room dedication that Miller possesses. Two that he mentioned were linebackers Josh Cain and Sheldon Green, who played from 1999-2002.
Cain was a two-time All-American whose 192 tackles in 2002 remains UTC's single-season record.
"They were very powerful, very strong kids, a lot like Gunner," Brincks said. "I think they maybe had a little more natural ability than Gunner does, but Gunner does it by just working his tail off."
Miller made his first career start at Western Carolina in the fourth game of the season and made nine tackles, including four for-loss. He had nine tackles again the following week and looked like a mainstay in the lineup.
Because it has been so long since he played in a game, Miller said he doesn't really feel like he's played much. At the same time, he's been with the team since the summer before he started school at UTC.
"I've been here for a long time. I even came over my freshman summer, so I've been here for three years and I feel like one of the veterans on the team," he said. "But I feel like I lack a little bit of experience on the field being that I only played in [eight] games. I do feel a lot more confident, since I did play in those games, in my abilities."
The Mocs begin preseason practice Thursday afternoon at Scrappy Moore Field.

Benson, Overway lead Hope to 81-72 upset of seventh-ranked Adrian
ADRIAN, Mich. -- Head coach Matt Neil's Hope squad remains unbeaten in the MIAA after posting a convincing 81-72 victory on the road Saturday against No. 7 Adrian.
The win extends Hope's conference winning streak to 17 in a row and puts the Flying Dutchmen over the .500 mark (7-6) for the first time in nearly a month. Hope shares first place in league play with rival Calvin and Trine.
The Flying Dutchmen set the tone early by scoring the game's first seven points and pulling to a 16-2 lead after just five minutes. Hope's lead at halftime was 43-26.
Adrian trimmed Hope's lead to single figures with four minutes remaining and was within four points in the final minutes of the game. However, Hope sealed the win from the free-throw line.
Freshman center Brock Benson recorded his first collegiate double-double scoring 18 points on 7-for-8 shooting and grabbing 10 rebounds, including seven off the defensive board.
Senior guard Colton Overway also scored 18 points and had a team-best five assists while senior Billy Seiler followed with 15 points and had four steals.
Shooting 53 percent from the floor, the Flying Dutchmen maximized their shots by taking just 47 of them the entire game.

Mint to Sell Lincolns on Friday
March 10, 2009
Better late than never.
The Mint will begin to sell rolls of the new Lincoln cents directly to collectors March 13, one month and one day after the 16th President's 200th birthday.
Though I have been getting reader reports of new cents in circulation in Puerto Rico and Southern California, most collectors around the country report a complete absence of the coins and the likelihood that their banks will not get them at all.
Greencastle, Ind., dealer Julian Jarvis says that he had word that some showed up in the St. Louis Federal Reserve District, but he could not obtain nearly enough coins to meet his clients' needs.
The result, as everyone knows, is some crazy prices being paid by impatient buyers.
Jarvis says that the long-term value is two-cents apiece in his wholesale business, but it will be awhile before the long- term value can be realized. That works out to $1 a roll.
On the other hand, those who want them now, will have the opportunity, but it will cost them.
The Mint will sell a two-roll set, one each from the Denver and Philadelphia Mints, for $8.95. There will also be a shipping and handling fee of $4.95 per order.
Visit the Mint Web site at
for more information.
Will it get better in May when the second design is rolled out? I assume so. I know interest is already building because I have had an e-mail asking details of any planned introduction ceremony.
Perhaps the sender of that e-mail wants to buy his airline ticket ahead of time so he can go to the ceremony and stock up on the coins.
Early supplies in the hobby in February traced back to the Kentucky introduction ceremony.
One good thing, the scramble for the coins helps take our minds off the recession.

It's always nice to receive a compliment, but what is the most natural way to respond? In this BBC How to… respond to compliments programme, William shocks some of his colleagues at BBC Learning English by suddenly complimenting them. How will they react?
William: Hello, and welcome to How to…our guide to the everyday language of life.
My name's William Kremer. I take every opportunity to shock my colleagues here at BBC Learning English dot com and earlier on I gave several of them a big shock. I went around the office complimenting them. Why did I compliment them? Did they look good? Had they made programmes
that I'd enjoyed? Well no, not really. I just wanted to see how they would react – how they would respond – to my compliments.
I started off by approaching Carrie at the photocopier. How did she react when I gave her a compliment?
William: Hello Carrie. You're looking lovely today…
Carrie: What are you after?
William: What do you mean, what am I after? I'm just saying you look lovely. I like your purple T-shirt.
Carrie: It's just you don't ever normally give me compliments so you must be after something…
William: Well, I told you that my colleagues would be shocked by me paying them compliments. When I told Carrie that I thought she looked lovely she said:
'What are you after?'
William: Hello Carrie. You're looking lovely today…
Carrie: What are you after?
William: 'What are you after?' means 'What do you want?'. Carrie thinks that I am being nice to her because I want to ask her a favour. She said that I didn't normally compliment her so 'I must be after something'. 'What are you after?' is a humorous, and quite common response to an unexpected compliment. It is sometimes said that the British don't know how to respond to compliments. So after Carrie's rather disappointing answer, I thought I'd try someone from abroad, so I approached my colleague Khalid….
William: Khalid!
Khalid: Hello!
William: Khalid's busy. But I just wanted to say… erm you're looking fantastic today. As always, actually! You're so smart….
Khalid: Oh thank you! What do you want?
William: You're the second person that's said that! No, I don't want anything, I don't need you to translate anything at all… I just thought I…I…I thought you look very smart.
Khalid: Well thank you so much, that's very, very kind. I got my shirt from er Dubai actually – erm, very cheap shop in Dubai… erm – it didn't cost me a lot of money but I think it's nice, and you think it's nice.
William: Well, either I don't ever pay people compliments or my colleagues never receive any! Khalid also asked me if I wanted anything – if I was looking for a favour. But then he said, 'Thank you so much, that's very kind'.
William: … I just thought I…I… I thought you look very smart.
Khalid: Well thank you so much, that's very, very kind. I got my shirt from er Dubai actually – erm, very cheap shop in Dubai… erm – it didn't cost me a lot of money but I think it's nice, and you think it's nice.
William: After Khalid thanked me for the compliment, he went on to tell me about his shirt – specifically that it hadn't cost much money. In Britain this is quite a common way of responding to compliments about clothes – to say that actually your clothes aren't so special. We often say 'Ooh, it was only cheap' or maybe 'I've had it for ages'. You're not disagreeing with the compliment, but saying this kind of thing shows that you're surprised by it.
Next, I complimented Callum Robertson on his programme Grammar Challenge, and he replied using a standard phrase.
William: So, I listened to one of your grammar challenges the other day… and erm… I thought it was fantastic
Callum: Ah well, it's very nice of you to say so, thanks
William: Callum said 'It's very nice of you to say so'
Callum: Ah well, it's very nice of you to say so, thanks
William: Now, there's an important strategy that people use in reacting to compliments. That is to return the compliment – to give a compliment back to the person who gave it to you! Listen to my conversation with Hina:
William: No, I…I…thought that I'd, I'd come over and compliment you on the way you're looking today because I think you're looking very smart…
Hina: Thank you Will, that's very kind of you to say. You're looking very smart and tall as usual….
William: I'm tall! Yes – I can't help, I'm always looking tall, that's just the way I am!
William: Hina returned my compliment by saying that I was looking very tall. Normally, we don't say that people look tall, we say that they are tall… that's why I told Hina that I'm always looking tall.
Hina: You're looking very smart and tall as usual….
William: I'm tall! Yes – I can't help, I'm always looking tall, that's just the way I am! I am actually a very tall person, and I get a lot of compliments about my height. Old ladies are always saying to me 'Oh, you're lovely and tall'. That sounds very nice, but actually it gets pretty boring. And, it can be quite difficult for me to return the compliment. It would be very strange for me to say 'Oh, thank you very much. You're lovely and short'! But, after someone compliments you, you always need to say something. Goodbye!
|Standard responses
|Thank you, that's very kind!
|Thank you, that's very
|of you (to say so).
|Showing surprise
|You can show surprise at a compliment by explaining why it is unexpected. So, if someone compliments you on an item of clothing, you might say:
Oh, I've had this for ages.
|Sharing responsibility
|If you receive a compliment for a piece of work which was a joint effort, it's important to make this clear.
Thanks! Ramesh worked on it too.
|Returning the compliment
|You can often respond to a compliment by returning the compliment – by giving a compliment back.
Oh, thanks very much! You look very nice too – I like your coat.
|Humorous responses
|In the UK, it is very common to respond to unexpected compliments by suggesting that the person paying you the compliment wants to ask a favour. This is a joke and probably won't cause offence to native English speakers.
What are you after?
* Flattery is the giving of praise and compliments that you don't really mean. This phrase means that it doesn't matter how many compliments you receive – you won't give any favours in return!

I hear four questions asked about leadership often. This article gives a short answer to each of these important questions. Why Does Leadership Matter? Parents universally hope that their children develop leadership qualities.

Sagamore Children's Psych Center in Dix Hills could remain open, but with limited beds
A psychiatric center in Dix Hills that planned to close this summer could remain open, but with only half of its beds.
A plan to completely close Sagamore Children's Psych Center this summer was first announced by the state last year. The plan did not go over well with parents or former patients, who said the intensive inpatient services are crucial and lifesaving to troubled Long Island children.
A revised plan would keep the center open at least through next March, but with 27 beds instead of its current 54.
The state says it is focused on expanding on what they call "community-based services," which is designed to shorten inpatient hospital stays.
Parents and some Long Island lawmakers are calling on Gov. Andrew Cuomo to reconsider.
The state's Office of Mental Health says local hospitals offering children's inpatient services, including Sagamore, operated below capacity in 2013.
A spokesman told News 12, a multimillion-dollar investment into community-based services will ultimately allow more people to access mental health services.

The following is a review of How to Start a Restaurant Business Following a Profitable System by Ray Freeman.
This guide does a great job of guiding new players into the usually competitive restaurant business and offers them the chance to get inside the mind of an experienced operator to understand exactly what is necessary to succeed.
Many people dream of starting their own restaurant business but sadly many of them do not survive their first year in business. Failure in this business is due to a variety of factors but basically comes down to a lack of experience, planning, information and guidance.
Entrepreneurs opening their own restaurants could certainly benefit from getting an insight into the industry from those who have already been successful and that is what Ray Freeman sets out to do in his guide.
No matter how much experience you have before opening a restaurant, a lot of what will determine your level of success comes down to going through the slow process of developing your own systems. With this guide you can avoid a lot of these time consuming, trial and error processes and jump straight into systems that have already proven to be effective and profitable.
In this guide Freeman has clearly gone to a lot of trouble to offer information that will make a positive difference to your restaurant during and after the startup phase. The guide is written with both novices and those already possessing experience in mind and it does a good job of covering both the business and practical sides of the industry.
How to Start a Restaurant Business Following a Profitable System is set out into four easy-to-read sections and comes with a variety of free gifts that include an interview with a restaurant consultant, secret recipes, menu templates and a guide for managing restaurant employees.

One of my friends in Colorado named John Blase wrote this on his blog a few weeks back...
Be careful what you wish for.If you wish to be a man's man you might find yourself at the enda hard-pressed man who missed the daily frailties that soften youallowing you to close your eyesand rest in peace. Perhaps the grander wish is to be a woman's man or a child's man or a dog's man. Those are the men missed when they are finally gone.- John Blase
I had to read it a few times. I find most folks who reject ideas, tend to reject them because they don't embody them. But what makes this statement so powerful is John B. is a man's man sort of guy. For me, that is what made this quote by him so powerful. A great truth in it.
As men, what are we seeking out? Are we looking for others to identify us in a specific way, or are we serving those and part of their lives where our identity becomes linked to being part of their lives in which we both benefit and share in a true communion of friendship. Our animals, our family, our wives, our children. One thing we try and embody around here are true masculine virtues... and John nails it for me... reminds me that it's about giving our lives over to those people and things we love. Hope it provokes you to think a little deeper as well.
One of my favorite thoughts about masculinity is that it is about strength and grace. The balance of the two... that is sure a wonderful mystery. - Xan

The Observer came into the office on Tuesday morning, not quite bright-eyed or bushy tailed thanks to Daylight Savings Time jetlag, to find our colleague Benji Hardy conked out asleep in yet another colleague's office, Benji having pulled an all-nighter to bring you, Dear Reader, this week's cover story. Benji has been pitching a no-hitter in recent weeks, not a false or unsupported note to be found, on this train wreck of a story about Rep. Justin Harris (R-West Fork), in which a state legislator known for his Bible-beating ways unloaded his adopted daughters on a near-stranger when the going got tough — as things often do with kids who wind up in the foster system, raked as they tend to be by not only the troubles that landed them in foster care in the first place, but also by the terrible fear that no one will ever want them; that no one will ever stay. Do we have to say that one of the girls later wound up getting raped by that near-stranger, who is now a long-term guest of one of Arkansas's finer Ironbar Hotels? You probably already know that bit of this sordid tale, but do we have to say it? Please don't make us say it again. It leaves the bitterness of secret and terrible agonies in our mouth. It makes us lose another microscopic diamond chip of our faith in the idea that all things spin in the direction of goodness and love instead of chaos and despair, and The Observer's supply of faith was already perilously low.
As terrible as the tale is, it's been inspiring for an old fart, our all-nighters mostly behind us, to see Benji doing a mule's work, upholding the great traditions of this profession we love. He has spent weeks now doing the backstroke in the septic tank, diving down through some of the ugliest stuff imaginable in order to get at the truth, and to try and make sure this kind of thing never happens again. We've been there, friend. Too old and cynical for that now mostly, but we've been there, and so we know how hard it can be. Not physically hard — not shoveling gravel hard or hauling hay hard. Not working on the road crew in August hard. But mentally hard. Heart hard. Hard as in checking and rechecking and re-rechecking every line, name spelling, punctuation mark and fact, then checking them again. Hard as in: By the time you lay down your head at night, you feel like your heart and brain has been wrung out like a kitchen sponge, eyes thrumming like a taut wire, the worry of having gotten something wrong following you down and down, even into the crevasse of sleep. And here is the prayer you say before sleep then, Dear Reader: The Journalist's Prayer, Ecclesiastes 12:14: "God shall bring every work into judgment, every secret thing, whether it be good, or whether it be evil."
Here's the weirdest part of it, though. As hard as that can be to do this job well, once you've done it awhile, you start to crave it, especially if you're eventually able to see the needle squeak even one bare degree in the direction of progress when all is said and done. You know that scene at the end of "Rocky II" where Rocky has had his face beaten to steak tartare, but hoists the championship belt and says: "Yo, Adrian! I did it!"? Yeah. That. That's it exactly.
So if you see Benji Hardy out there on the streets of Little Rock in the next few weeks, give him a pat on the back (though not, please, while he's riding his bicycle in traffic). Hell, do that for any journalist whose work has moved you, because Lord knows there are plenty of hardworking reporters in this town who could use it. But do The Observer a favor in the short term and extend the hand of backslapping to Benji. Tell him what a good job he's done. Tell him it wasn't just bird-cage liner to you. Tell him it mattered. Imagine him curled up asleep on unpadded carpet the color of a dirt-dobber's nest, heart wrung out like a sponge, even the float-a-pistol newsroom coffee not keeping him upright anymore. Tell him: Yo, Benjamin. You did it.

Paul Kaufer
Director of Sales, FasTest
Chapter Board - Minnesota
Paul Kaufer was instrumental in the grassroots effort to bring a PCA chapter to Minnesota in the three years leading up to the advent of PCA-Minnesota in 2013.
As a board member, Kaufer said he aims to "increase awareness through my network and get people involved at any level that will support and help grow the cause."
Along with bolstering support for PCA, Kaufer also said he hopes to become a trainer. In that role, Kaufer can be on the ground working with parents, coaches, officials and athletes—all roles he has held throughout his life in athletics.
"I was a three-sport athlete in high school and fortunate to earn a scholarship and play football at Minnesota State–Mankato," Kaufer said. "I coached high school football for two years and spent 15 years in the Stillwater area as a coach, commissioner and Vice President of the St. Croix Valley Athletic Association."
Kaufer's hard work and passion did not go unnoticed. He was recognized by the St. Croix Valley Athletic Association as a recipient of the George Olson Award, a lifetime achievement award for volunteer service.
He has also officiated four years of high school football, and has been lauded for making an impact in all facets of youth athletics in the St. Croix Valley area for his efforts in being a parent, coach and official.
Kaufer is a father of two boys, Corey and Jordyn, and is married to his wife of 26 years, Kelli.

Note the giveaway of the slanted fin tops? The Su-35 flew without the canopy and had the rocket ejection seat blast marked painted on the fuselage.

I rarely star & flag threads, but this is going to be one of them. One of the most intriguing themes that is consistent within this topic is the issue of sonic booms over populated areas with the military rejecting ownership. Unlike seeing "something in the sky", a sonic boom is inherently unmistakable - you can't mix that up with a conventional explanation. What it goes to show is that there was an object in the sky going at rapid speeds, an object not belonging to the military. That is an amazing admission if anything.

The number of people out of work and claiming Jobseeker's Allowance (JSA) in Worksop has seen a 28 per cent drop since March 2015, new figures have revealed.
The figures, which were released this week, show that the number of JSA claimants has dropped in the town by more than a quarter since March last year, with 326 fewer claimants.
Retford has also seen a 20 per cent fall in JSA claimants, meaning both towns have beaten the East Midlands claimant drop of 17 per cent and the national drop of 11 per cent.
Jared Wells, Nottinghamshire employment relations lead at the Department for Work and Pensions, said: "This sharp drop is fantastic news for the Worksop and Retford areas and residents should be proud that both towns have beaten the national average drop.
"The economy is a lot more robust with improved job stability, which we believe has contributed to a drop in residents claiming JSA and Universal Credit.
"It seems that businesses are now more likely to retain workers after taking them on temporarily over Christmas which has definitely helped things along.
"We have also seen a drop in young people claiming Job Seeker's Allowance, a 37 per cent drop in Worksop and a 30 per cent drop in Retford.
"With more young people entering apprenticeship schemes, we hope that the number of claimants will continue to fall."
Scott Knowles, chief executive of East Midlands Chamber of Commerce, said: "Taking into account the usual seasonal spike in unemployment and JSA claimants as temporary contracts come to an end and start to filter through into the job market, these figures are once again positive and further demonstrate just how robust the region is when it comes to creating jobs and driving the economy.
"The figures demonstrate that while our labour market remains flexible and vibrant, it's not immune to shock, so it's vital that business policy continues to provide the right support and environment to facilitate job creation.
"However, there are some uncertainties on the horizon in terms of changes to apprenticeships funding, the introduction of a new National Living Wage and the continued rollout of auto-enrolment, all of which add huge up-front costs to employers," added Mr Knowles.

Art work done with the use of toothpicks, Circulism Technic..
S A C H A The World of Circulism Most Artists use paint brushes or a palette knife to paint but the New York Artist, SACHA, uses toothpicks and nails. Since 2003, SACHA has found a way to mix the colors by making circles, scratching the surface of the canvas and bringing out the whiteness of the canvas with a simple toothpick. These circles of movement are brought out in a technique which SACHA calls CIRCULISM. Up-close you can see and feel the texture of the tiny and large circles. You can also see how SACHA, by applying just one color, can create shades by simply applying more or less circles. With CIRCULISM, SACHA has been able to use all types of paints and has also used them on all types of surfaces such as canvas, wood,...
