...Which starts at the top. Hypocritical leadership, claiming virtues not
owned, had more to do with it. But to the topic. It turns out that veggies
sprayed with agribusiness petrochemicals respond by increasing the level of
phyto-estrogen. The FDA was not worried, they knew it didnt cause cancer.

James Berry's 1947 sketches of designs for NZ decimals - 20 years too early! -
1 new

James Berry won the competition to design the reverses of New Zealand's first
decimal coins, which were released in 1967. However, 20 years earlier, he
produced these sketches of what a decimal coinage for New Zealand might look
like. His portrait of King George VI looks more like Cary Grant(!), but some

I posted something this elsewhere, and despite the nature of this group, I
though I'd try for some serious responses here as I've received elsewhere. I'm

human nature. You have your Ankas, - Thurs, Mar 10 2011 3:37 pm

Official: Why the British produced such boring designs for the Seychelles - 1
new
---
The British-ruled Seychelles started issuing its own coins in 1939. The
reverse designs on the lower denominations were very plain, and obvious copies,
apart from the country name, of the designs on the Mauritius coins. When you
consider the beauty of the Seychelles, and the wildlife with which it is
graced, you wonder why these weren't - Thurs, Mar 10 2011 3:43 pm

bent, crumpled, dirty, torn, excessively worn, etc., maybe not. Your Hawaii
