German tries to cash million-dollar bill
"He claimed that he just wanted the bank to check whether the bill was real but bank employees testified that he wanted to have the money credited to his account," Stefan Coners, a spokesman for the court in Duesseldorf, told AFP.
The US Treasury Department does not print a million-dollar bill. The man was convicted of attempting to bring counterfeit money into circulation and of attempted fraud. He was also told to pay 1,000 euros (1,345 dollars) to a children's charity.

De La Rue share drop 2%
Most recently, the firm has been batting off takeover interest from French rival Oberthur. The Paris-based firm ditched its plans on Monday after De La Rue rejected a raised offer, which valued the firm at roughly £925 million. Shares plunged 16% when Oberthur pulled the plug on its approach.
Chief executive Tim Cobbold, who joined in January, said he was undertaking a strategic review and would update the market with its progress in May, when the firm delivers its full-year results.
He said: "My first month at De La Rue has confirmed the potential to build on the considerable strengths of the business by extending our customer base and improving both how we work and the service we deliver to our customers around the world."
The company said it expected to produce 10,000 tonnes of banknote paper in the full financial year, which according to analysts is below capacity of 16,000 tonnes. De La Rue, which also supplies security documents such as passports, authentication labels and fiscal stamps, and provides cash and sorting equipment to central banks, said it was benefiting from the roll-out of the new British passport since October.

Perak Gold Dinar next month
“There is a proposal. But until I get a final draft on the mode of operation, I will not make any statement,” Dr Zambry told a press conference after chairing the weekly state exco meeting here yesterday.
On Tuesday, state executive councillor Datuk Mohamad Zahir Abdul Khalid was reported as saying that the Perak government would launch the currencies next month in a move to diversify its reserves. Mohamad Zahir said the state government was working with Kuwait Finance House (KFH) to introduce the currencies as the bank, which provides syariah-compliant products and services, have vast experience in handling them. He added the currencies would be produced by Goldnet International Sdn Bhd, a wholly owned subsidiary of the Perak State Development Corporation, in collaboration with KFH.
Dr Zambry admitted the state was working with several partners “but I will not reveal who they are.” He also clarified that the gold and silver coins were for investment rather than a mode of transaction.
“I do not want the people to misconstrue that it is another form of currency exchange.
“We do not want people to misunderstand as the state has no authority to execute such a policy,” he added.
Dr Zambry said Perak came up with the idea before Kelantan to use the dinar and dirham.
“Somehow, Kelantan managed to capture our idea and launch it first,” he said.

From the last statement by Dr. Zambry, is he saying that Gold Dinar is Perak idea or Perak want to introduce it as a currency (like Kelantan did)? For me, its not a matter of who owned the idea since Kelantan already introduced it first. The important thing that they will start producing and circulating their owned gold dinar. Its hard to find Gold Dinar nowadays because many people are collecting them. I hope the quality of their gold dinar coins will be at least the same as Kelantan and come up with serial numbers. This is a good investment for everyone to buy.
What is your opinion regarding Perak Dinar and this news?

Jupe’s Topless Photo
This is the newest Jupe’s topless photo:
Julia Perez blows out the wind again. This time with her topless photo that can be found on plixi.com, an online twitter photos application. You can find the original Julia Perez topless photo instead of the one on this Indonesian Celebrities and Gossips blog. This topless photo has been blurred on Julia Perez’ back. Julia Perez wrote "Tidur dulu ahhh." as the caption of this hot photo.
This is not the first time for Jupe to share her sexy photos. She acknowledged that topless photo is really belong to her. But she refused to confess that she uploaded that photo intentionally.
This photo was actually taken by Gaston Castano. Julia Perez herself didn’t make any statements on when or where the photo was taken.
Although there has been many pressures to her to act and perform politely in public, but it seems like she doesn’t even give a glance to those warnings.

Vietnam Official linked to securency case
Securency is embroiled in a long-running investigation into claims its agents offered bribes to officials in countries including Indonesia, Vietnam, Malaysia and Nigeria to win contracts. Police arrested several people in Britain, Spain, Australia and Malaysia in raids linked to the investigation last October. Sources told The Age the Securency "slush fund" was established with some of the Aus$15 million ($14.95 million) in commission paid to middleman Anh Ngoc Luong for helping win huge banknote contracts in Vietnam between 2002 and 2009.
Tens of thousands of dollars were paid from the fund towards Thuy's child's studies, The Age said Monday. The claims were also aired Wednesday in the Financial Times. Neither the Reserve Bank of Australia nor Securency chairman Bob Rankin returned AFP's calls for comment. In Vietnam, an official at the National Finance Supervision Council told AFP that Thuy was unavailable for comment.
The Age said Australian police suspected Luong's commissions, paid into Hong Kong and Swiss bank accounts and with the approval of the RBA board, were "diverted to Vietnamese officials or their relatives". Securency executives denied direct involvement in the payment of bribes, The Age said it had been told. The RBA and British-based joint venture partner Innovia Films announced that they were selling Securency last November.

Luna Maya: Shameless!!! – Lita Gading
Luna Maya: Shameless!!!
Luna Maya is coming back to live! That’s not a news anymore. She is now taking part in an Indonesian soap opera. Lita Gading, an Clinical Psychology expert said that Luna Maya is just over confident to take that role. Seems like Luna is brave enough to deal with any minor opinion from public according to her appearance on TV.
Lita Gading said that the society is not yet ready to see Luna Maya objectively without considering her prior porn videos with Ariel. This most shocking news in 2010 is now still having high rate on media. The case itself is now on trial.
Moreover, it seems like Luna Maya is just shameless, Lita Gading added. Luna Maya has an extrovert personality and tends to give no attention to what people say about her. She never regrets to everything she has done. That’s her lifestyle.
What do you think? Will Luna Maya succeed with her effort to come back? Will people greet her with applause or refuse her with ridicule words? Have you forget her hot scenes with Ariel? For me that ‘moving’ pictures is simply unforgettable.
Fake September 11 coin minted?
National Collector's Mint's website claims designs of the Twin Towers and U.S.S. New York on the coins are made from "pure silver actually recovered from the vaults beneath the ashes of Ground Zero." It says the coins are government sanctioned and "minted under an exclusive license authorizing the official striking of the official Justice Department FBI insignia."
Schumer further criticized the company for diverting funds from official September 11 commemorative coins that Congress sanctioned last year to benefit The National September 11 Memorial & Museum under construction at Ground Zero.
National Collector's Mint President Avram Freedberg issued a statement defending his company's coins and adding that the company had donated more than $2 million from these commemorative sales to a handful of September 11 charities.
"We believe that in America anyone has the right to sell commemoratives," he said. "The purpose of coins, medallions, ingots, etc., is often specifically to remember happy events or tragedies."
The Better Business Bureau has given the company its lowest rating of F, with close to 100 consumer complaints about the company filed in the past three years.

6. Worlds most expensive gold dinar-The Umayyad dinar
A specialist auctioneers, Morton & Eden in London, make it in a record book for Worlds most expensive gold dinar and Dirham. The Umayyad dinar, one of the rarest and most highly-prized of all Islamic gold coins, struck possibly to coincide with an occasion when the Caliph himself led the Hajj pilgrimage to Mecca, sold for a record £3,720,000 in a sale at specialist auctioneers Morton & Eden in London. The Umayyad dinar, dated 105h (723AD) was struck from gold mined at a location owned by the Caliph himself; known on the coins as the “Mine of the Commander of the Faithful”. An additional legend which reads: “bi’l-Hijaz” (“in the Hejaz”), makes it the earliest Islamic coin to mention a location in the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia.
