  • Our Liberty Dollar Raid Update
    Our Liberty Dollar Raid Update Jeff Taylor reason.org November 16, 2007 Updating from the previous post on the topic, the FBI did indeed raid the Liberty Dollar office in Indiana on Wednesday. Documents filed in U.S. District Court in North Carolina indicate that the raid was the culmination of a two-year undercover investigation of Liberty Dollar and its officers. According to an affidavit (PDF) filed by FBI agent Andrew Romagnuolo in support of a federal seizure warrant obtained from a U.S. Magistrate last week, the feds have been investigating Liberty Dollar not just for violating federal bans on circulating alternative currency, but also for mail fraud, wire fraud, and money laundering. As for the mysterious connection to the Western District of North Carolina, the document names William Innes of Asheville as a Regional Currency Officer for Liberty Dollar and an executive committee member of the company. Undercover government agents made Asheville a focus of their investigation as a result, attending area meetings of Liberty Dollar prospective buyers and sellers. The affidavit further details Liberty Dollar's structure and terms it a "multi-level marketing scheme." The FBI claims the company realizes a profit by selling the Liberty Dollars into circulation. The feds also went back to October 2002 for bank records of Liberty Dollar principals and cite large sums of cash moving between accounts said to be controlled by those individuals. The document also mentions that the company continued to circulate Liberty Dollars after it had been warned by the US Mint not to do so.

  • If You Were a Merchant, Would You Accept These Coins - June 01, 2006 Albuquerque Journal, by Andrew Webb
    Private Money: if You Were a Merchant, Would You Accept These Coins - June 01, 2006 Albuquerque Journal, By Andrew Webb Private Money: if You Were a Merchant, Would You Accept These Coins? By: Andrew Webb Staff Reporter The Albuquerque Journal - Sunday, June 11 2006 Remember being told as a kid that the United States' currency is backed by stacks of gleaming gold bricks buried in Fort Knox? That hasn't been true since at least 1971. But a small group of New Mexicans are part of a nationwide network of business owners, consumers and money hobbyists who use an 8-year-old private currency, which they say is backed by guarded precious metal in an Idaho warehouse, called the Liberty Dollar. Some call it funny money— indeed, from time to time, news reports circulate about someone being arrested for passing what police initially think are counterfeit coins. Banks won't take them, and most coin dealers dismiss Liberty Dollars as little more than a multilevel marketing scam. But Liberty Dollar backers say they'll have the last laugh when the plummeting value of the U.S. currency leaves unsuspecting Americans holding money whose value is little more than the paper it's printed on. "The federal Constitution states that no state shall use anything but silver or gold in payment or debt, but look where we are today— it's all just paper," says Michael Lunnon, owner and operator of a Gallup-based franchise of The UPS Store, a copy and mailing shop. Lunnon is one of two New Mexico distributors, or regional currency officers, for the Liberty Dollar.

  • Your Virtual Visit - 57 to the Australian Army Museum of Western Australia
    YOUR VIRTUAL VISIT - 57 TO THE AUSTRALIAN ARMY MUSEUM OF WESTERN AUSTRALIA Throughout 2021, the Virtual Visit series will be continuing to present interesting features from the collection and their background stories. The Australian Army Museum of Western Australia is now open four days per week, Wednesday through Friday plus Sunday. Current COVID19 protocols including contact tracing will apply. Amphibious Capabilities and the Army’s Small Boat Fleet Both the Navy and the Army have had a role in providing vessels to support amphibious warfare and littoral operations. The Australian military's first amphibious warfare ships were the three Landing Ships Infantry (LSI): HMAS Kanimbla, HMAS Manoora, and HMAS Westralia. These three ships had been built as civilian motor vessels and were converted to armed merchant cruisers at the outbreak of war in 1939. They were converted again to LSIs in 1943 and took part in United States and Australian amphibious assaults in the South West Pacific Area. The ships had a capacity of about 1,200 troops, which were landed from boats carried by the LSIs. Following the war, the three LSIs remained in service as transports until 1949 when they were returned to their owners. An assault landing craft being swung aboard HMAS Westralia during the landing of 2/24 Infantry Battalion on Morotai, 18 April 1945. 1 The RAN borrowed six Landing Ships Tank (LSTs) from the Royal Navy between 1946 and 1955. The LSTs were used as general-purpose vessels and did not specialise in amphibious operations. After the LSTs were disposed of, Australia was left without any amphibious warfare ships.

  • AFL Vic Record Week 2.Indd
    TAC Cup Round 2 2 & 3 April 2016 $3.00 Season 2016 kicking into gear Wasn’t it great to have football back last weekend, both at AFL and TAC Cup level? While the next crop of future AFL talent was taking to the field in TAC Cup games throughout Victoria last weekend, it was a highlight of the Easter weekend to see eight draft ees debut in Round 1 of the AFL season – including 2015 Morrish Medal winner Clayton Oliver who claimed the first NAB AFL Rising Star nomination of the season aft er his 22-disposal debut for Melbourne. While the TAC Cup season started last weekend for the best U18 male talent across Victoria, last Monday saw the conclusion of a very successful Youth Girls Academy Challenge for the most promising U18 females across the state. Congratulations to the Dandenong Stingrays, who defeated the Sandringham Dragons in the finale to the month-long tournament. It is pleasing to see TAC support not only the next crop of elite U18 boys but also what will be the next crop of future female AFL footballers via the U18 Youth Girl Academies across eight regions. During the week we celebrated the launch of the Peter Jackson VFL and new VFL Women’s competition. With the launch of a national AFL women’s competition in 2017, it is exciting for AFL Victoria to launch the first VFL Women’s season this weekend. Also at the launch we looked back at the history of the TAC Cup competition, with last week signalling the beginning of its 25th season.

  • Money and Prices
    CHAPTER 112 Money and Prices Key Concepts Hyperinfl ation Monetarism Neutrality of Money Infl ation Money Multiplier Quantity Theory Infl ation Tax Money Supply Seignorage Overview This chapter focuses on the nominal side of the economy: money and prices. We examine the historical behaviour of prices and the surge in infl ation that occurred in the twentieth century. We consider how to measure the price level and the rate of infl ation and compare their different meanings. We discuss why policymakers want to control infl ation and the costs of infl ation. Money is intimately linked to prices – after all, we quote prices of goods and services in terms of money. We review the historical development of money – from commodity money to paper money – and examine how governments and the banking sector create money and credit. We then consider the interaction between money and inflation. We first discuss hyperinflations – inflations of more than 50% per month – and show that they really always originate in fiscal policy, when governments print money to finance their activities. We review the concepts of seignorage and the inflation tax and compare them across countries. We then discuss a more general link between money and inflation and outline the quantity theory, which forms the basis of monetarism: the idea that inflation can be controlled by controlling the money supply. 282 cc12.indd12.indd 228282 110/01/120/01/12 88:56:56 AAMM CHAPTER 12 MONEY AND PRICES 283 12.1 Rising Prices THE HISTORICAL RECORD Although historical evidence regarding the scale of economic activity is often obscure, we have much more evidence about the price of different items.

  • Part 3 – 32 Small Ship Squadron
    Royal Australian Corps of Signals CHAPTER 5 – SPECIALIST SIGNALS PART 3 – 32 SMALL SHIP SQUADRON Introduction In 1959 the Australian Army purchased four Landing Ship Medium (LSM) from the US Navy in Japan. These vessels were veterans of the Pacific Campaigns in World War Two and the Korea War. They were 62 metres long, with a beam of 10.4 metres and could carry up to 306 tons, including four Centurion Tanks (4 x 52 tons) at a speed of 11-12 knots, with 14 knots max. They served extensively in New Guinea and the South West Pacific and two of them served in Borneo during the confrontation with Indonesia in 1964. The unit, 32 Small Ship Squadron, was disbanded in early 1972 with the Royal Australian Navy (RAN) to be responsible for all seagoing activities of the Defence Force since. 32 Small Ship Squadron was a unit of the Royal Australian Engineers (RAE) and had five ships, each named after famous Australian generals, as follows: AV1353 "Harry Chauvel" (Formerly USS LSM-319) AV1354 "Brudenell White" (Formerly USS LSM-477) AV1355 "Vernon Sturdee" (Formerly USS LSM-315) AV1356 "Clive Steele" (Formerly USS LSM-547) AS3051 "John Monash" (Formerly MV Marra - 1400 ton Cargo ship) Australian Army held a LSM vessel on station in Vietnam during the Australian involvement in support of both Australian and US forces operating mainly between Saigon, Vung Tau and Cam Ranh Bay. They also visited the coastal ports of Nha Trang, Phan Rang, Qui Nhon and Da Nang plus the Mekong Delta ports of My Tho, Can Tho and Bin Thuy.
