Nobody would like it if I had the ability to forge or counterfeit everyone’s valuables and render them worthless, especially not the money you bust your ass all week, every week to earn. This would be catastrophic and would leave you wondering why….. Why should you kill yourselves in your jobs trying to get to the top of the metaphorical totem pole, to earn the ‘big bucks’, if I could sit in my basement and continuously print off 20, 50 or 100 euro notes with the press of a button. This would just be unfair and would cause quite a stir I imagine, this is why there are numerous agencies around the world that are working to counteract those criminals (like me) from depreciating the value of your cash and causing mas inflation in the prices of products, like the IACC (International Anti-Counterfeiting Coalition), GACG (Global Anti-Counterfeit Network), as well as the collaboration of WCO’s (World Customs Organisations) and INTA (International Trademark Association). They do this by including a variety of features to increase the reliability and security of banknotes to deter me and my type from doing so, and should I persist, they make my job as hard as they possibly …show more content…
These ‘features’ cause all sorts of problems for someone in my trade as now there are around twenty different reference points I must include just to make my counterfeits look authentic, namely: micro-printing, watermarks, security threads and holograms although there are many others that causes innumerable problems with my
V. Examine the serial numbers. Make sure the serial numbers on a bill match, and look at them carefully. Fake bills may have serial numbers that are not evenly spaced or that not perfectly aligned in a row. If you received more than one suspicious bill, see if the serial numbers are the same on both bills. If they are the same, then they are counterfeit notes.
I am sure that everyone of you have heard about aliens and UFOs. Indeed, we all have heard about the famous case of aliens and UFOs in Roswell, New Mexico. Most people might be interested in the topic of aliens, but I know that the majority of you just think of it as rumours and the existence of them are impossible. Therefore, I am standing here in front all of you to make you change your perspective. I am strongly confident that I have found the evidence of their real existence to convince all of you.
With over one-third of the nation’s money being fake, it became a real issue. When there is fake money in the economy, it drains the value of the US dollar. It drains the value because, the more bills that are out there, the less value there is to the ones in people’s wallets, which tears apart the nation’s economy. ("U.S Secret Service in History," n.d.) Even today the US still takes counterfeiting very serious, a single charge of carry fraudulent money can add up to 250,000 dollars in fines, and possibly 20 years in prison (Followill, n.d). Fake money still affects us today, and should be taken very seriously.
Persuasive speech outline purpose: To persuade my audience to donate blood through the American Red Cross. Introduction:
It was October 6, 1998 when he was lured from the bar that cold, fateful night. His skull was smashed with a pistol butt as he was lashed to a fence, left for dead in near freezing temperatures. Nearly eighteen hours later he was found by passersby and taken to a hospital where we remained in a coma for several days until slowly slipping away. At his funeral, picketers carried signs saying, "God Hates Fags" and *Fags Deserve to Die."
Have you served in a war? Has your father or mother served in a war? How about your grandpa? As we honor those who have served we typically do so by standing for the pledge of allegiance or star spangled banner. We say thank you to our war heroes or we go and visit them and listen to their stories. In this paper I will be discussing why NFL players should not be allowed to kneel for the flag. Although the NFL players have the right to peacefully protest, they should find a different way than kneeling as it shows disrespect towards the flag also active duty military and veterans, it teaches young children this behavior is okay, what they are protesting has nothing to do with the flag and there are many different ways to get their message out.
Two of our fellow seniors, Curtis Robinson and Sumayyah Singletary, have taken the initiative to plan an unofficial class trip. The following is a message from them:
Thank you so much for coming to BH to talk about Tufts; the more I learn about the school the more my interests grows and the more I want to go there. That being said, Tufts is an amazing school, but continuing with what we talked about in our meeting, I sometimes worry that Tufts is too close to home for me. I was abroad in Spain last year with SYA and despite being away for nine months I still feel the need to expand my boundaries. I guess the gift and the curse of being a Boston student is that you are fortunate to grow up in an amazing city with many great colleges, but at the same time you do not want to be in the same city for your whole life. Nonetheless, I look forward to being on campus again for the voices program in a couple of weeks.
C. As long as schooling increases the marginal return to work more than crime and schooling does not decrease patience levels or increase risk aversion.
“ Great shot Breanna, great shot” said a fan congratulating her on winning the game with a buzzer beater shot, with a second left to play. After the game was done, she went into the locker room to change and get ready to go home. Once she got finished changing she starting walking outside towards her car.
Wait for a clear night, go out to the street, relax, take a deep breath, and finally look up to the sky. Marvel at the stars, while the immense vastness of the unknown cosmos crushes your soul. Now ask yourself:
Daniel khun, I love you. Paul McCain, I love you. frank Dalton, I love you. Mrs. Jodi meeker archer, I love you too. As a matter of fact class, I love everyone in here. Now some of you might be appalled by me saying this. Many of you may be flattered by it; and a number of you might even wonder. Is this guy crazy? Who does he think he is? How could he have the audacity to tell me he loves me? To you I say this, I’m just a normal guy with a big heart; a guy practicing the correct ideology to remedy this evil world. And right now, I’m trying to influence you to abide by the same system. A system that is so natural and so pure, but is often revered as a weakness or an enigma that should be avoided at all cost. As a matter of fact, I believe
For example, using a leftover coffee can for loose nails or screws, or even washing and reusing a plastic zip-loc bag instead of throwing it in the garbage. Thrift shopping is a way of reusing someone else’s unwanted goods. As I spoke about in an earlier speech about thrifting, I included many locations and ways to thrift, also the benefits to the shopper and the donator. One place in particular was shopping at the local boys and girls club. I personally shop there, keeping my eyes open for a good deal. For example, the pair of jeans that I am wearing today was purchased from this store just a few months ago. I paid only $8.00 for this pair of Lucky Jeans and according to buckle.com, a retailer for lucky jeans the retail price is $99.00 that is a savings to me of $91.00.I am not the type to worry about name brands, but quality usually does cost more. If I can get a quality pair of jeans at a fraction on the price, I am glad to shop at the thrift store. I am thankful to the person that made the donation of the lucky jeans and they can benefit from that donation. According to the IRS webpage, IRS. Gov it explains that an individual can donate items like clothing, household furniture and furnishings, a car or boat, even taxidermy. The donations are appraised, by the donator, and recorded. At the time of filing taxes if the donation equals at least $500 for the year, the donator may take advantage of the
“Anyone who has never made a mistake has never tried anything new.” This quote it by Albert Einstein. Albert Einstein is a physicist that was born in Germany. Some of his accomplishments are learning that the universe was dynamic. He also created a major part in atomic energy, E=MC2. It's relevant because I tried something new that I’ve never done before.
Counterfeit goods are fake imitations and replicas of products carrying a brand name (Phau & Teah, 2009). These goods may include luxury brands from the fashion industry, electronics, software and pharmaceuticals. Usually these products are of a lower quality as compared to the original. Companies struggle to protect their goods from being copied since their name, logo, ideas and designs are copied and sold cheaply in the market. This is unethical and illegal (Chaudhry&Stumpf,2011).
