There will t a masa con
vention of the Republicans ol
Vinton county, at the
COURT HOUfeE,
for the purpose of selecting
three delegates to represent
this county in the State Con
vention to be held at Col
mubiis.ITIay 31st, and the
selection or five members of an
Executive Committee for Vin
ton county for the ensuing
By order of Ex. Committee,
J. N. McLAUUtlLINjCh'n.'
J as. W. Delay, Sec'y-
The Democratic press is just
now engaged in what they con
aider a fine piece of political
strategy. They denounce the
salary steal of the late Con
gress in the loudest terms, al
ways, however charging the
whole responsibility on the Re
publicans, and carefully shield
ing or observing profound si
lence about the Democratic
members. The truth is that
there was as large a percent
agejol one party as of the other
voted for the measure. If the
press of thatparty would only
confess to this fact and hold its
own members to a strict ac
count for their rascality, in
stead oi trying to make politi
cal capital by shoving their
faults upon the shoulders of
others, they would stand much
better with thinkiug men and
women. They choose, howev
er, to carry on a system of de
ceit, hoping to impose on their
presumed ignorance of the peo
ple, but instead, showing that
their only anxiety i3 to control
the offices, and not to better the
condition of the people and the
government. Thus it is they
constantly betray themselves,
and their supposed pillar oi
strength .is their greatest weak
ness. Tut issue of the Enquirer
just before the election labor
id zealously to prove that liar
ley Wells was not a citizen ol
Vinton county. Wells was
elected, .and the next week the
Enquirer made the statement
that he bad been promised the
nomination as Delegate to the
Constitutional Convention by
the "Radical ring of McAr
thur" the Kail previous. These
two lies don't hang well to
gether. What would 'a citi
zen of Jackson county" be
doing over in Vinton, at all
times and at all seasons, and
celling promises of nomina
tions? Too thin! It the edi
tor of the Enquirer expects to
make his living by lying he
should study the art, and lie
with better judgment.
The Democratic ring have
aiever undertaken any public
defense ot their manipulation
of the Infirmary job. They
have tried to laugh it off, and
iell the people that it amount
ed to nothing; that it was a
sensation ot the Record; that
everything was regular. The
election of Mr. Wells by a ma
jority of 355 is the first reply
the people have had the oppor
tunity of making to the ring.
Wonder what they think ot it?
Db. Buita, and his assistant,
Eev. H. tV. Jones, have tender
ed iheir resignations to the
pew holders of All Saints
Church, Portsmouth. Dr. Burr
has been in charge of the
parish thirty-four years, and
asks to be relieved because
his growing infirmities unfit
him for his duties.
Mockisq birds are now a reg
ulir article of export from thi
country to Europe, where the
bring very high rices.
Tiik Jackson Herald, Demo
oratic, is ol the opinion that
Vinton county may be "con
sidered reliably Republican
Good. And why shouldn't
Vinton be reliably Republican?
It was reliably Democratic un
til that party dropped its pro
fessed principles and took to
adopting a ne ff 6et every week
or two, and uniil a ring here in
McArthur ran the county head i
over ears in debt It would be
a little strange if the people
of this county wouldn't tire
some time ot such Democracy
a) they were treated to. We
are only surprised that they
stood it so long.
Tub Postmaster General has
accepted propositions to put on
an additional mail service from
Chicago to Cincinnati via the
Indianapolis and Lafayette, al
so one en the Baltimore and
Ohio railroad from Washington
to ParkerBburg, Va ; also from
1'arkersburg to Cincinnati, and
probably one from Grafton to
Sandusky, Ohio, via Newark
and Monroeville; one from Bos
ton, Maes., to Burlington, Vt,
on the Vermont Central line.
Other propositions for increas
ed mail service are pending.
Although the space assigned
American exhibitors at the
Vienna Exposition is three
times as large as that assigned
at the Paris exhibition, the ac
commodation is insufficient,
and Ihd Exposition managers
have been compelled to pro
vide a separate hall for ma
chinery well as an additional
roofed court ot 2,100 squares
metres area. It is said that
the Austrian directory evince
a particular anxiety to make
everything agreeable for the
American exhibitors.
Only three States besides
Ohio deny the veto power to
Iheir Governors. In Delaware,
North Carolina, Ohio, and
Rhode Island, bills become
laws upon passage by both
Houses. In all the other States
bills must be approved by the
Governor, or returned with hi
objections to the House where
they originated.
The McArthur Enquirer has
expressed the opinion that the
Democrats of Clinton township
who helped to give Mr. Wells a
majority of 99 in that township,
were drunk, and bribed with
whisky. Mr. Bowen has ex
pressed his opinion about them,
now we would like to hear their
opinion of him.
Jackson township (Rajr
ville), Jackson Co., cast 265
votes at the Spring election
and had 104 candidates for the
township offices. Out of the
multitude of candidates they
managed to get in a good man
for Justice of the Peace Capt.
I. II. McOormick, Kaysville.
The Modocs are reported to
have been driven from the lava

The decrease in the public
debt, last month would have
been nearly 3,000,000, if it
had not been for the salary
steal. As it was, only about
$1,600,000 of the debt was

be abolished. It was a species
of fasbionablo vulgarity that

Last year, it is estimated,
the total wool clip cf the
United SUtes was 160,000,000
pounds, while there were im
ported from abroad 93,306 531
pounds. This is a considera
ble gain in both classes over
1S71, when the domestic clip

the foreign importation 78,240,

Secondary South Park Characters – Fantone's Friday Top 5
Considering how big of a South Park fan I am, I'm really surprised this is my first list about the show. Check out my top 5 list of secondary(not main, one-off, or obscure) characters from South Park, Colorado.
Number Five: Jimmy Valmer
Jimmy Valmer is a wise-cracking, "handicapable" student at South Park Elementary, voiced by Trey Parker. Jimmy is an active stand up comedian and holds several records in the Special Olympics, even though he used steroids to achieve at such a high level. His first appearance was in season five during the episode 'Cripple Fight'.
Cripple Fight
Get More: SOUTH
Number Four: Towelie
Everybody's favorite stoner, Towelie is a talking "RG-400 Smart Towel". Towelie is concerned with two things in life, making sure everyone remembers to bring a towel and smoking weed. Towelie's drug addiction got worse in time, getting so bad that the boys had to have an intervention when the towel was smoking meth and doing heroin. Towelie is voiced by Vernon Chatman and was originally created as a joke about the over marketing of the show. Both Towelie and Cartman consider Towelie one of the worst characters ever. I was actually Towelie for Halloween a few years ago, and it was the easiest costume ever.
Number 3: Mr./Mrs. Garrison
Mr. or Mrs. Garrison is the teacher of the boys and one of the most complex characters on the show. Voiced by Trey Parker, Mr. Garrison will have sex with pretty much anyone or anything and has undergone numerous sex change operations, but remains one of the most bigoted and intolerant characters in the series. Garrison has had two imaginary teaching assistants, Mr. Hat and Mr. Twig and a real gay love slave, Mr. Slave.
Eek, A Penis!
Get More: SOUTH
Number Two: Randy Marsh
Randy Marsh is the father of Stan and Shelly and husband of Sharon. Randy is based on Trey Parker's father and voiced by Parker himself. Randy is quick to overreact and jumps on any idea, bandwagon or thought that comes his way, regardless of truth or practicality. Randy loves to party, is a known liberal and generally is a pretty good father and husband. He also has laid the biggest turd ever.
The Losing Edge
Get More: SOUTH
Number One: Butters Stotch
Butters is a classmate of the boys and easily one of the funniest characters on the show. He's voiced by Matt Stone and is naive to a fault. Butters is always trying to be a good kid, regardless of what life throws at him. He gets stressed often, worrying about what his parents will do if he gets caught misbehaving, rarely curses (Oh, Hamburgers!) and is pretty much as wholesome as a glass of milk. Butters does have a dark side, known as 'Professor Chaos' and has been the featured character in many episodes.

United 'must pay 40m Rakitic clause'
New Sevilla president Jose Castro has said Manchester United -- or any other potential suitors – will have to pay a 40 million euro release clause if they want to sign midfielder Ivan Rakitic.
• Payne: Christmas cheer
• Jolly: Three things
Rakitic has been in outstanding form, and talks to extend his contract, which ends in 18 months, have been ongoing for months without reaching a resolution.
This has led to speculation that interested clubs, thought to include United, Liverpool, Chelsea, Atletico Madrid, Lazio and Napoli, could try to sign the Croatia international, 25, in a cut-price deal.
It is possible that a transfer could happen as early as January, with United boss David Moyes keen to strengthen his midfield and Sevilla remaining in deep financial difficulties.
But Castro told Estadio Deportivo that Sevilla would not be rushed into a quick sale and added: "Rakitic has a year and a half left at Sevilla, but we are going to extend his contract.
"If anyone is in a hurry to sign him they already know that his release clause is 40 million euros."
United have also been linked with two other La Liga playmakers, but Ander Herrera has said he is happy to remain at Athletic Bilbao, while Atletico Madrid youngster Koke has claimed to know nothing about any interest from Old Trafford.

Pictures of the highly-anticipated Sony PlayStation phone have been leaked on the web.
Engadget posted the images online of the Google-Android based handset.
According to the website, the PlayStation Phone will be powered by a 1GHz Qualcomm MSM8655 and run the next version of Google Android, version 3.0, which has been nicknamed Gingerbread.
Users will also benefit from 512MB of memory, 1GB of storage space and a screen, which Engadget claims is between 3.7in and 4.1in. The pictures indicate the phone features a sliding section, which is thought to include a multitouch pad and gaming buttons similar to those on existing PlayStation controllers.
Users will be able to download games from a special version of the Sony Marketplace, although there's no news on the phone will be able to run existing PSP games.
The handset is expected to hit the market some time next year.
Sony has yet to comment on the speculation.

Tommy haha - with all due respect mmm when I read your stuff I often think you are a half-fruitcake and I don't think you are an authority on anything in Taiwan just cause you have lived here for a while some decades ago
I can see on a daily basis how my older son (4 years) is affected by being singled out in almost all situations in his day, including the kindergarten, including close friends and families. It is 7/24 everywhere & everyone.
The majority of Taiwanese seem unable to understand how much he just wants to be a normal person. He is a Chinese native speaker, but people talk to him in bad English (which he doesn't speak) - he is told so many times that he is a foreigner that he comes crying to me. He would be the only foreign looking (blond) kid in the huge elementary school in our neighborhood and coincidentally it's the campus he doesn't want to go anymore cause he was pushed, teased and approached in a awfully stupid way too many times when playing on the playground.

But our auto industry is not moving in the right direction fast enough to succeed. So let me discuss what measures need to be taken by each of the auto companies requesting taxpayer assistance, starting with General Motors. While GM has made a good faith effort to restructure over the past several months, the plan they have put forward is, in its current form, not strong enough. However, after broad consultations with a range of industry experts and financial advisors, I'm confident that GM can rise again, provided that it undergoes a fundamental restructuring. As an initial step, GM is announcing today that Rick Wagoner is stepping aside as Chairman and CEO. This is not meant as a condemnation of Mr. Wagoner, who has devoted his life to this company; rather, it's a recognition that it will take a new vision and new direction to create the GM of the future.
In this context, my administration will offer General Motors adequate working capital over the next 60 days. During this time, my team will be working closely with GM to produce a better business plan. They must ask themselves: have they consolidated enough unprofitable brands? Have they cleaned up their balance sheets or are they still saddled with so much debt that they can't make future investments? And above all, have they created a credible model for how to not only survive, but succeed in this competitive global market? Let me be clear: the United States government has no interest or intention of running GM. What we are interested in is giving GM an opportunity to finally make those much-needed changes that will let them emerge from this crisis a stronger and more competitive company.
The situation at Chrysler is more challenging. It is with deep reluctance but also a clear-eyed recognition of the facts that we have determined, after a careful review, that Chrysler needs a partner to remain viable. Recently, Chrysler reached out and found what could be a potential partner – the international car company Fiat, where the current management team has executed an impressive turnaround. Fiat is prepared to transfer its cutting-edge technology to Chrysler and, after working closely with my team, has committed to building new fuel-efficient cars and engines here in America. We have also secured an agreement that will ensure that Chrysler repays taxpayers for any new investments that are made before Fiat is allowed to take a majority ownership stake in Chrysler.
Still, such a deal would require an additional investment of tax dollars, and there are a number of hurdles that must be overcome to make it work. I am committed to doing all I can to see if a deal can be struck in a way that upholds the interests of American taxpayers. That is why we will give Chrysler and Fiat 30 days to overcome these hurdles and reach a final agreement – and we will provide Chrysler with adequate capital to continue operating during that time. If they are able to come to a sound agreement that protects American taxpayers, we will consider lending up to $6 billion to help their plan succeed. But if they and their stakeholders are unable to reach such an agreement, and in the absence of any other viable partnership, we will not be able to justify investing additional tax dollar to keep Chrysler in business.

Coin Rarities & Related Topics: Collections of Claude Davis and Brandon Smith, Coin Pricing and Government Regulation
News and Analysis regarding scarce coins, coin markets, and the coin collecting community #10
A Weekly Column by Greg Reynolds
After writing about two collections in the Boston ANA auction to be held in August, I will address the topic of 'overpricing.' A vocal U.S. Congressman has called for government regulation of rare coin and bullion businesses. He has attacked one prominent seller of bullion and modern coins as having overpriced some of their coins and he seems to imply that the Federal Government should combat overpricing, presumably with price controls. In my view, while such overpricing of bullion coins and of other common coins occurs, his approach is flawed and counter-productive. Moreover, government regulation of prices would make trading less efficient and would not substantially lessen the extent to which careless, or mentally incompetent, coin buyers are harmed. Please see my discussion below.
I. The Collection of Dr. Davis
Please read last week's column for general remarks regarding upcoming events in Boston and prior columns for discussions of very rare coins that will be auctioned. Furthermore, I will soon write about Dr. Duckor's collection of Barber Halves, which is, indisputably, the all-time best collection of this series. Duckor's halves will be auctioned during Heritage's Platinum Night event on Wed. August 11, as will many coins from the collection of Dr. and Mrs. Claude Davis. In my column of July 7th, I discussed a few of the coins in the Davis collection. There are many more in the ANA auction.
Todd Imhof, Executive Vice President of Heritage, relates that Dr. Davis "started collecting coins in the 1930's!" Further, Imhof remarks that Dr. Davis "is perhaps best known for putting together the famous Foxfire Type Collection that sold intact a number of years ago." My (this writer's) impression is that the Foxfire type set consisted mainly of coins that were (and mostly still are) NGC graded from MS-65 to MS-67. Indeed, some or all of these were placed by the NGC in holders with the name 'Foxfire' on the respective inserts. I have seen only copper and silver coins that are pedigreed to the 'Foxfire' collection. I remember the "Foxfire" NGC graded MS-66 1818 quarter, for example, that Heritage auctioned in Feb. 2008 and, again, in May 2009.
Dr. Davis has consigned a much more extensive type set and other coins to the upcoming Boston ANA auction. Imhof reveals that "Dr. Davis, after completing and selling the Foxfire collection, went back into collecting Type coins in a more moderate grade range. He loves high-end AU specimens and felt that grade often represented super value."
There are many coins in the Davis collection that are graded AU-55 or -58 by the PCGS or the NGC. One example that imaged well is an 1829 half dime that is PCGS graded AU-58 and has a sticker of approval from the CAC. Likewise, the Davis 1815 quarter is PCGS graded AU-58 and CAC approved. The online images of this quarter look marvelous. It is necessary, though, to view a coin in actuality, or have an expert do so for you, to draw firm conclusions about its physical characteristics.
One of the most important coins in the Davis collection and in this ANA auction overall is the Atwater-Hawn 1797 half dollar. The Draped Bust obverse (front), Small Eagle (reverse) halves of 1796 and 1797 are the rarest silver type coins. The William Atwater collection, which B. Max Mehl sold in the mid 1940s, is one of the twenty greatest U.S. coin collections of all time.
The eminent collector Reed Hawn assembled landmark collections of several series, especially quarters and halves. The 1913 Liberty Nickel that was auctioned in January was previously owned by Reed Hawn. (Please click here to read my article about it.) Hawn's halves were auctioned by Stack's in 1973. Like the two Davis collection coins just mentioned above, this 1797 half is PCGS graded AU-58 and has a CAC sticker.
Another Davis type coin that may be noteworthy is an 1839 Half Eagle ($5 gold coin) that is NGC graded AU-58 with CAC approval. Breen argued that the Half Eagles of 1839 are of a subtype that is different from those minted from 1840 to 1865 (plus the 1866-S 'No Motto' issue). According to Breen, the heads are significantly different. Veteran gold coin dealer Paul Nugget agrees. I do not, however, find this difference to be especially important, though it is curious. In their gold coin encyclopedia (2006), Jeff Garrett and Ron Guth comment that the "style of the design for the 1839 Half Eagle is quite different from that seen in subsequent years." I encourage collectors to study 1839 and later 'No Motto' Liberty Head Half Eagles and contemplate this matter.
II. Unusual Consignment from Dr. Smith
Another doctor who consigned coins to the upcoming Summer ANA auction is Brandon Smith. His 1931 Saint is the only one that the PCGS has graded MS-67. It was earlier in the epic collection of Thaine Price, which the firm of David Akers auctioned in May 1998. Dr. Steven Duckor regards the sale of the Thaine Price collection as "the greatest auction of 20th century gold, ever"!
According to Imhof, Smith is a connoisseur of classic, key-date issues," two of which are his "amazing 1916 quarter and the finest known 1931 $20" gold coin. Smith's 1931 Saint "is the finest specimen of this date" that Imhof has "ever seen, easily finer than the MS66's that have hit the market over the past few years, in [Todd's] humble opinion." Imhof is a recognized expert in early 20th century gold coins.
Imhof reveals that "Brandon Smith loves $20 Saints." Dr. Smith's "1931-D and 1929 are only graded MS64 but are superb examples," Todd says. Smith's "1932 is delightful and [Imhof is] almost certain he acquired it in the Akers' Price sale and has had it ever since." The Price-Smith 1932 Saint is PCGS graded MS-66.
Dr. Duckor attended the Price sale and he viewed this 1932 Saint. Duckor then graded it as "MS-66." Duckor's second collection of Saints is one of the top sets of Saints in the PCGS registry. His first set, which was retired in Jan. 2005, is the "All-Time Finest" set of Saints in this registry. Duckor has the only 1932 Saint that is PCGS graded "MS-66+"! In 2010, his Saints were re-submitted, under the new PCGS SecurePlus program. His Barber Halves were as well, and these will be a main attraction at the ANA auction.
III. Overpricing & Regulation
A U.S. Congressman, who probably knows little about coins, is continually calling for more government involvement in markets for coins and bullion, which are items that are primarily demanded for their precious metal content. Most one-ounce gold coins minted since the 1970s, for example, are really bullion products and only to a secondary extent, if at all, are collected.
For the most part, precious metals are gold, silver, platinum and palladium. People often buy common gold, silver or platinum 'coins' or bars for investment purposes. Rare gold or silver coins are different, though I will address the notion of regulating markets for rare coins below, as it is conceivable that future regulations will affect these as well.
On the Internet, prospective buyers of rare coins, common coins or bullion can easily find large numbers of sellers, along with a good deal of educational information, and can very easily compare prices, especially for the kinds of coins and bullion products to which this Congressman is referring. Indeed, in a matter of seconds, a buyer could find many listings for American Eagle gold coins, Proof American Eagle gold coins, Canadian Maple Leafs, generic (common) pre-1934 coins like 1904 Double Eagles, Platinum bullion coins, Swiss 20 Franc coins or Russian Roubles from the first half of the 20th century, etc.
On websites here in the United States, there is even much information regarding widely traded foreign gold coins, of the kinds that are sometimes mass marketed and are demanded primarily for their bullion content. Right here on CoinLink, the NGC frequently advertises their "World Gold Coins Value Guide," which includes a long list of values for NGC certified world gold coins, including Swiss Francs, British Sovereigns, Danish coins and Russian coins, among others. The listing includes common foreign gold coins from the late 19th century or the 20th century, which are frequently traded as bullion products, as they are not scarce. Values are listed for several grades. It is made clear when the chart was last updated and the basis price for gold that is being used as a factor in determining these values. Likewise, the PCGS price guide has a page for bullion related coins, with values for U.S. and foreign coins that are traded primarily as bullion products rather than as collectibles.
My point here is that there is a tremendous amount of information available relating to prices for bullion products and generic coins. If someone is a somewhat competent reader, he should be able to easily gain an understanding of market prices for bullion products. It is almost as easy to learn the market prices for somewhat scarce modern coin issues that are traded as commodities and are often marketed by the same vendors who sell bullion coins, such as Proof American Gold Eagles. Pre-1934 gold coins that exist in large quantities and are sold mostly to non-collecting investors are not as simple. A few hours of research, however, would enable a moderately intelligent, prospective buyer to understand market prices for generic pre-1934 U.S. gold coins as well.
Why is there a problem regarding overpricing? Suppose that five dealers in one area are offering the same brand of TV set, and the same exact model manufactured during the same time period, for between $400 and $500 each. Further suppose that a sixth dealer is charging $4500 for this same TV set. Does it make sense to draw a conclusion regarding the people, if any, who pay $4500 for one of these TV sets? Clearly, it is likely that most such people are being very careless or are at least temporarily mentally incompetent. The existence of a dealer who is asking $4500 would not be a reason for a government agency to regulate the details of TV sets and forever control prices that dealers charge for all TV sets. The equilibrium range of $400 to $500 for this hypothetical (though realistic) TV set is a function of numerous variables, which change gradually over time, and cannot really be known by any one agency. More government regulation would impose additional costs upon manufacturers and retailers, would make doing business more expensive in general, and would result in higher average prices for everyone.
I am NOT declaring that there should never be any government regulation of any business. I am pointing out that government regulation has a role in situations where it is nearly impossible for most buyers to acquire pertinent information on their own. There is a need for government regulation of hospitals because it would be impossible for prospective patients to evaluate all crucial aspects of a hospital, including competent doctors, proper sterilization procedures, adequate precautions regarding fires, proper treatment of those legitimately seeking emergency care (even in the middle of the night), the maintenance of X-Ray machines, the safe use of radiation treatment devices, etc.
The pricing and representing of coins is much different from the pricing and representing of the services of a hospital. Regarding rare coins, common coins and bullion, there is an incredible amount of clear pricing information available for free. Consider all the information at the PCGS, NGC, Numismedia, and coin auction company websites. There are more than a million coins listed in the Heritage auction archives. Moreover, there are hundreds of dealers offering coins for sale via their respective websites. In addition, there are coin clubs and coin publications that provide information. Experts all over the nation are available by e-mail or telephone. It is ridiculous to argue that the government should be regulating a business and controlling prices because some buyers gladly pay the first price that they hear, without spending even ten seconds to find out that the same items are sold by a large number of other dealers for much lower prices.
Buyers who are not mentally competent are in need of additional medical care or of some other kind of assistance. Government domination of the coin business would not solve, or even alleviate, the problems of buyers who are not mentally competent. Besides, law enforcement agencies act, under current laws, on behalf of people who are not mentally competent. In fields where pertinent information is readily available and understandable to buyers, government regulation of prices results in higher prices, and less efficient markets, for everyone.
Consider the vast majority of people who pay 'too much' for widely traded commodities, like bullion (not rare) coins, which could easily have been purchased elsewhere for much less. These buyers are very careless. In legal terms, their behavior is often characterized by gross negligence. Does this U.S. Congressman desire for the government to impose costs upon businesses and other consumers just to seemingly benefit buyers who are grossly negligent?
Government regulation of coin markets would not ultimately benefit buyers who are very reckless. There will always be vendors who hire clever attorneys and who find ways around the regulations, or will sell something else to the same reckless buyers. Consider someone who would pay $5000 for a very common, one ounce gold coin that 95+% of dealers would sell for less than $1350. This same person may buy a variety of other goods at prices that are multiples of market levels. It is just not practical for government agencies to even try to control all sellers who wish to take advantage of reckless or very careless buyers.
I believe there is an ethical responsibility for experts is to try to educate gullible buyers, and consumers in general, and that is one of the reasons why I write about coins and coin markets. Government regulations of prices, however, have negative unintended consequences in addition to the intended consequences of preventing prices from rapidly changing when market conditions quickly change, and of making it more difficult for businesses to plan for the future because of the uncertainty regarding the price levels that will be government approved.
While government regulation of the prices of common coins would be very harmful, such regulation of prices of rare coins would be even worse. Even two rare coins of the same date, of the same type, and with the same certified grade from the same grading service, may be very different and have dramatically different market values. Moreover, the market value of any one rare coin may substantially change in a short period of time, and may vary in different settings during the same time period. The same coin may be worth more in Auction X than in Auction Y, in the same city in the same month, and may be worth more at Show A than at Show B. Depending upon the collectors active at a particular moment, the same coin may be worth more in the afternoon than it was in the morning.
Even famous coins vary in price. There are only nine known 1870-S silver dollars. (I have devoted one article to 1870-S dollars and discussed them in two more recent pieces. – Excitement for an 1870-S, Joseph Thomas collection, Column of June 30th.)
The King Farouk 1870-S silver dollar sold for around $550,000 in Oct. 2007 in a widely publicized auction in a big city and then for more than $700,000 in another auction in early 2008. Another 1870-S dollar, which is clearly of higher quality than the King Farouk 1870-S, sold for a little above $500,000 in April 2009. If the King Farouk 1870-S was auctioned as well in April 2009, it would probably have then realized around $450,000. Both these 1870-S dollar may be worth more than $750,000 now. Rare coin prices fluctuate considerably.
IF there should be any government involvement in the rare coin business, it should be to combat coin doctoring. There are a small number of very talented coin doctors who damage coins in order to make it seem (even to experts) as if the damaged coins are actually of higher quality than these coins were before they were harmed, and the coin doctors are able to sometimes trick graders at the PCGS and the NGC. It is not unusual for a coin doctor to deliberately harm a MS-64 grade coin for the purpose of trying to trick experts into thinking that it grades MS-66.
As graders at the PCGS and the NGC can be tricked, and some of them are among the leading experts in the field of rare U.S. coins, coin buyers cannot learn how to detect doctored coins by engaging in research on the Internet. Even very knowledgeable coin buyers are often victims. (Please click here to see my analysis of the PCGS lawsuit against alleged coin doctors, or here to read the lawsuit itself.)
Branches of Federal or State governments may be able to successfully address the problem of coin doctoring, without a need for additional laws and regulations. As is made clear in the PCGS lawsuit, coin doctors can be charged under existing laws.

Joss Stone has revealed that she might ask Mick Jagger for a duet at next year's London 2012 Olympics ceremony.
The pair recently collaborated as part of supergroup SuperHeavy, who released their debut album back in September.
Talking about the project, Stone told the Daily Star: "It's an exciting project but it is so hard to get everybody together in one place."
On the prospect of duetting with Jagger during one of the London 2012 ceremonies, the star said: "The Olympics would be great, the perfect idea, I'll ask him."
There had been speculation that the group were planning a special tour for their 50th anniversary to coincide with the 2012 Olympics in London.

Get X-ray vision on new equipment purchases
Introducing part one of a three-part series all about maximizing your use of the top three pieces equipment you said you were adding to your practice (according to the 2013 Veterinary Economics Business Issues Survey). This month, we'll focus on financing.
If team members and clients often refer to your veterinary equipment as "old school," it may be time for an upgrade. We know what you're thinking—you'd add digital radiography, laser therapy and new imaging tools in a heartbeat, but not without first asking, "How much is the equipment going to cost me?"
Turns out, that's the wrong question to ask, according to Gary Glassman, CPA, a Veterinary Economics Editorial Advisory Board member and partner with Burzenski & Co. in East Haven, Conn. He says practice owners should be asking, "How many times will I be able to use the equipment?" and "How will it provide a return on investment to the practice?"It's easy to look at the $25,000 price tag on a therapeutic laser and think you could never afford it. However, it's important to remember you don't have to pay for the machine in one year, Glassman says. A reasonable payback period—the time it takes to recover the equipment's cost resulting from annual net cash flow—is anywhere from three to five years, he says. You should also consider the machine's life span and determine its potential use. (For an easy way to make these calculations for your practice, http://veterinarybusiness.dvm360.com/vetec/article/articleDetail.jsp?id=821516.)
Embracing new equipment
Veterinary Economics Editorial Advisory Board member Dr. Andrew Rollo has always been an advocate for digital radiography—he says the diagnostic capabilities make the purchase a no-brainer. However, he become an associate at Madison Veterinary Hospital in Madison Heights, Mich., in 2008—right when the economy tanked—so he understood the practice's reasoning for holding off.
"The increase of problems with our old unit seemed to coincide with business improving and that created discussions of what would be best for the practice going forward," Rollo says. "I thought we were within a year or two of purchasing digital radiography equipment, but the practice owner surprised everyone by giving it to the staff at the end of last year's Christmas party."
Dr. Rollo says when deciding on whether to purchase a new piece of equipment, you need to weigh the machine's advanced capabilities against the cost involved. He recommends considering the more tangible issues and asking the following questions in regards to your current equipment:
> How much money am I spending on the upkeep of a 20-year-old film developer?
> How much am I paying staff to develop radiographs?
> How much am I paying staff to retake radiographs?
"These costs of the old system don't come with a huge daily price tag, but can certainly add up over time," Dr. Rollo says. "As old processors and developers get older and break down more often, the huge price tag for a digital system may not end up seeming so big."
Veterinary Economics Editorial Advisory Board Member Dr. Jeff Rothstein, MBA, agrees. He says you'll also save $100 to $200 a month because you'll no longer need to pay for chemicals or a film developing system. Plus, you can snap as many pictures as you want at no extra charge. He says this saves your team the headache of calling the client back for retakes, which is a waste of everyone's time and money.
"It's also easier to send digital radiographs to a radiologist—the process is essentially instantaneous and results can often be had within hours," says Dr. Rothstein, president of the Progressive Pet Animal Hospitals and Management Group in Michigan. "We do better medicine when we are able to send images digitally."
Dr. Rothstein does recommend increasing your fee per radiograph once you go digital. However, don't forget to talk up this new addition to your practice.
"By spending a little more time showing the pet owner the vastly improved images, they won't notice the $10 to $15 increase," Dr. Rollo says. "In most cases a patient will only be radiographed once or twice in its life, so most pet owners are likely not aware of the previous price to compare. Exam fees—well, that's another story."
After making the switch to digital radiography, Dr. Rollo says many practices end up taking more radiographs and the added diagnostics can help pay back the purchase. However, he admits he was skeptical this increase would happen at his veterinary practice.
"I felt I always recommended and took X-rays when I thought they were necessary—regardless of how frustrating the old equipment could be on a given day," Dr. Rollo says. "However, since adding digital radiography last December, we're taking 30 percent more X-rays so far this year with the digital unit."

If I swing really fast and release the B button when the remote is roughly pointing away from me and on the level of my eyes then the ball drops and I get the tutorial screen that shows up if you accidentally tap the B button (the one that briefly explains how to play). Then I need to swing again. If I release the B button higher or lower then it throws the ball normally. Does this happen to anyone else?

All of us one day or other, going to die!
How foolish are we? Known about our cry!
Each one of us has a specific date!
Have to wait, till the opening of heaven's gate!
We will mingle with our loved ones in Heaven's garden!
Till than we have to live in this world of modern!
They are waiting to receive you! - But

separate services on different network interfaces
I've got 2 NIC's that both have Internet connectivity as follows:
- eth0, public static IP (80.x.x.Y)
- eth1, private static IP (192.168.0.x goes through router: router also has a public static IP (80.x.x.Z)
Default route is set through eth0, however I'm trying to set up different services to be available on eth1 as well (or exclusively) - example: ftp server, ssh daemon.
So I connected eth1, assigned a private IP address (192.168.0.2) with a default gateway (/25), set sshd to listen to all interfaces (0.0.0.0 for testing), set port forwarding on router so that ssh connections on 80.x.x.Z would be sent to 192.168.0.2 and got time out when trying to ssh 80.x.x.Z. I also tried ssh to 192.168.0.2 which worked.
I guess I'm missing a step here hopefully (as I hope it's not the cheap router's fault). Could anyone provide a tip ?
Incoming packets hit eth1 but are routed back through eth0, which will prevent the connection from going forward. This isn't a linux configuration issue, rather one of network basics. Basically your inbound paths and outbound paths are not the same, which is a problem when using private IP space and NAT.
Your goals with such a setup are not clear; there are likely better ways to accomplish what you need to do. But if your current setup is necessary, then i see two ways you can get it to work:
1) In addition to port-forwarding the incoming connections on the router, also NAT the connection's source address (at the router) to the 192.168.0.x space (SNAT in iptables nomenclature). Connections received on eth1 will be seen coming from 192.168.0.x and pkts will be returned to the router, which will handle all of the NAT. Most consumer-based broadband routers won't let you do this, but if you have a linux router and are using iptables this should be pretty straight forward.
2) Use policy routing using 'ip rule' and 'ip ro table' configurations. These are advanced networking features so if you aren't familiar with them you will need to spend some time learning about them.
If those options don't work for you, you should re-think your network design (best option in my opinion)
Thank you for your reply, grepmasterd
Regarding the network setup, actually, I have no specific restrictions: It just happened that eth1 is routed to the internet through a home router (being part of a LAN) so I decided to test it without changing anything; however I can plug in eth1 directly to the internet via the public IP currently used by the router.
As for the goal I'm aiming at, it is to have certain services available on a free interface (eth1). Given that eth0 sometimes gets overloaded by bandwidth consuming services, I'm looking at placing administration services (eg. ssh) on a different interface with more bandwidth availability.
I read some introductions about load balancing, but I wanted to start up with something simple first.
I wonder why was it that when ssh-ing in on 192.168.0.2 from the local machine, the login prompt would show up (meaning that packets were not being routed back out on eth0) - Are local addresses translated to 127.0.0.1 on lo interface ?

Smiths Fork Lake below the eastern slopes of Red Castle Peak in Smiths Fork Drainage. East Red Castle Lake is located in the right frame below the bright talus slopes of Red Castle Peak. Smiths Fork Pass can be seen in the left frame.
From a photographic perspective, the quality of this panorama is not very good but I think it provides a true-to-life view of "being there".

wikiHow to Do a Hanging Indent
Two Methods:MS Word Hanging IndentOpen Office Hanging IndentCommunity Q&A
A hanging indent is a style of paragraph indentation in a word processing document. Unlike a paragraph that has the first line indented, the first line of a hanging indent is flush with the left side of the page and the rest of the paragraph's lines are indented slightly to the right. Creating a hanging indent may depend upon which word processing program you use; however, it is usually listed in paragraph formatting styles. Learn how to do a hanging indent.
MS Word Hanging Indent
1Open your Microsoft Word document.
2Write your paragraph. It is helpful to have some text and simply move your cursor, when you first create the indent.
- Highlight the paragraph that you would like to be formatted with a hanging indent.
3Click the "Format" menu in the top horizontal toolbar. Scroll down and click the "Paragraph" option.
- In the 2007 version of MS Word, On the Page Layout tab, click the Paragraph Dialog Box Launcher.
4Choose the "Indents and Spacing" section of the Paragraph formatting box.
5Find the "Indentation" section. Click on the drop down box that says "Special."
6Choose "Hanging" from the list.
7Choose the size of the indent to the left of the list. The standard indent of 0.5 inches (1.27cm) will be used as default.
8Click "Ok" to save your changes. Your paragraph should now have a hanging indent.
- You can set the hanging indent format before you type any text. This will tell your Word document to do it automatically. If you prefer that the hanging indent isn't present throughout the document, return and indent highlighted portions after you type the text.
Open Office Hanging Indent
1Open your document in Open Office.
2Type some text into the document. Place the cursor next to the text where you would like to have a hanging indent.
- You can also set the hanging indent before you start typing. Open Office will use this formatting style as a default.
3Select the "Styles and Formatting" window located in the drop down menu.
4Select "Hanging Indent" from the formatting options.
5Adjust the amount of indent from the default in the paragraph formatting toolbar. Close the formatting window you used previously.
- Click "Format" from the menu. Select "Paragraph" from the list of formatting options.
- Click on the "Indents & Spacing" section. You should see the words "Before text" and "First line."
- Use the up and down arrow buttons to increase or decrease the hanging indent.
Community Q&A
How do I set paragraph indents?wikiHow ContributorHit the tab key on the keyboard. When you do this, it should indent the paragraph. You could also just hit the space key 5 times.
How can I make this work in Google Docs?
- Always save your work frequently when working in a word processing program.

She's the most successful trainer in the race's history and prepares this year's odds-on favourite Overreach but will Gai Waterhouse score an upset 2013 ATC Sires Produce Stakes result with her other filly Florid Affair?
Golden Slipper winner Overreach is tipped as the two-year-old to beat again this weekend paying $1.60 in the markets for the $500,000 Group 1 Inglis Sires Produce Stakes (1400m) which is the first of three elite levels on Randwick's Australian Derby Day program on Saturday.
Draw in barrier six with Tommy Berry in the saddle again ahead of his Hong Kong stint Overreach is odds-on for a reason as the rank horse here.
Still the favourites' record in the Sires Produce is less than impressive with just nine wins since 1983 which opens things up somewhat.
Occupying the second line of ATC Sires Produce Stakes betting at a double-figure quote of $10 is then another promising young filly from Waterhouse's Tulloch Lodge stables in Florid Affair.
Coming up trumps with gate three and Hall of Famer Jim Cassidy to ride, the daughter of Sebring has had two runs to date breaking her maiden status on April 3 at Warwick Farm winning a fillies' maiden over 1250m.
She has handled everything from a Heavy track for a trial early last month at Rosehill to a Good (3) when third on debut behind subsequent Group 2 Magic Night Stakes winner Scandiva, a $26 chance for the Sires Produce, to a Slow track for her breakthrough win.
Florid Affair had the same barrier (3) draw last start and could also get the same track conditions this weekend as she looks to get the better of her star stablemate.
But is she really any sort of chance of taking home first prize? Or are punters better off sticking to a place bet with Florid Affair in Randwick Race 5 on Derby Day?
#13 Florid Affair – Horse Form
- Barrier: 3
- Jockey: Jim Cassidy
- Trainer: Gai Waterhouse
- Owners: Ms K Page, Mrs S M Burns, Mrs R J Henderson, Mrs S A Olive, Mrs D Tickle, Miss K Waterhouse, Miss H Waterhouse
- Age: 2YO
- Gender: Fillies
- Breeding: by Sebring from Show Exhibit
- Career: 2-1-0-3
- Win: 50%
- Place: 100%
- Last 6: 31
- Prize Money: $33,350
- Track: 0-0-0-0
- Distance: 0-0-0-0
- Current 2013 ATC Sires Produce Stakes Odds: $10
Yes – Florid Affair is a Chance to Score an Upset ATC Sires Produce Stakes Win
- Will get a gun run from barrier three
- Top jockey in Jim Cassidy rides
- Favourites record isn't great opening up an upset with only nine favourites since 1983 winning the race
- Is prepared by the race's most successful trainer Gai Waterhouse who has won seven times since 2000 including 12 months ago with Pierro
- One of Waterhouse's more recent ATC Sires Produce Stakes winner Sebring (2008) is Florid Affair's sire so she's got the right breeding
- Comes off a maiden win over 1250m on a Slow track at the start of the month where they put 4.5 lengths on Artistic Lass
- Should handle the 1400m then and if it's wet in Sydney they should handle that too
No – Florid Affair Won't Beat Overreach in the ATC Sires Produce Stakes
- Isn't as good as her stablemate #7 Overreach ($1.60) who is the one to beat here
- Yet to race at Group level whereas Overreach has won three stakes races including the Group 1 Golden Slipper last start
- Better for a Place Bet with a 100% place rate
- Barrier three has produced only one previous winner
- Hasn't raced at the track or distance before
