Islands Put Sex Appeal in Money Notes
A Seychellois bank note shows the word sex amid fronds and a Queen Elizabeth II portrait. British authorities seek to stop the notes from reaching shores as smuggling rises. In London the notes fetch about four pounds, about $10, despite threefold their value. A woman returning one notes the smuggling as a curiosity rather than a danger. A separate obituary notes the death of 16 year old O’Hara from a one car crash in Postville Iowa. He was a student at Postville High School and survived by parents, siblings, and extended family.
