Planchets, flans and blanks are synonyms for pieces of metal used to make?

Making coin blanks and planchets Minting Plachets and blanks How blanks and planchets are made Coin blanks used for striking coins can be purchased from coin blank suppliers, or be produced by the mint itself. In making such blanks, bars are first scrubbed to provide a consistent surface, free from impurities or imperfections which not only produce defective coins, but also reduce the life span of the dies. The bars are later annealed and rolled to become strips of metal having the exact thickness specified of each denomination of coin. Blanks and planchets represent the same product at different stages of production: the unstruck, circular pieces of metal that become coins when struck between the dies. Blanks are unfinished planchets that haven't been through all of the processing steps necessary before they can be struck into coins. Once a blank has been through all of the processing steps, it becomes a planchet and is ready to be struck. Making a blank The first step in the coin making process involves the feeding of the metal strips through what is known as a "blanking" press. The U.S. Mint buys strips of metal approximately 13 inches wide and 1,500 feet long to manufacture the nickel, dime, quarter, half-dollar, and dollar. The strips come rolled in a coil. Each coil is fed through a blanking press, which punches out round discs called blanks. The blank presses have a bank of punches (or rams) which travel downward through the strip of coinage metal and into a steel bedplate which has holes corresponding to the punches. The presses punch out blanks each time the punches make their downward cycle. The leftover strip, called webbing is shredded and recycled. The blanks made at this stage are slightly larger than the finished coins. Because of the shearing action of the punches, the blanks have rough edges. Most of the rough edges (or burrs) are removed during succeeding operations. The blanks are next passed over sorting screens which are supposed to eliminate all of the defective pieces. Thin and incomplete blanks will fall through the screens. Rejected blanks and remaining parts of the metal strips are returned to the furnaces to be remelted into bars. During the finish rolling and blanking press operations the blanks have again been hardened and must now be softened (heated) to controlled temperatures, approximately 1400 degrees Fahrenheit, changing their crystal structure to a softer state. The annealing ensures that the blanks have reached a coinable hardness so that they can be stuck to capture the full relief of the designs of the working dies. This process prolongs the life of the coining dies by ensuring well-struck coins with lower striking pressures. The blanks are then "frozen" into that state by a water quench bath. From planchets to coins Despite a protective atmosphere, annealing causes some discoloration on the surfaces of the blanks which must be removed. The blanks are tumbled against each other and passed through a chemical bath. Then they are dried by forced hot air. Many of the blanks' next stop is an upsetting mill, which raises a rim around their edges turning the blanks into planchets. The upsetting mill consists of a rotating wheel with a groove on its edge. The grooved edge of the wheel fits into a curved section (or shoe) which has a corresponding groove. The distance between the wheel and the shoe gets progressively narrower so that, as the blank is rolled along the groove, a raised rim is formed on both sides of the blank. This raised rim serves several purposes. It sizes and shapes the blank for better feed at the press and it work-hardens the edge to prevent escape of metal between the obverse die and the collar. The rimmed blanks are now planchets and are ready to go to the coining or stamping press where upper and lower dies stamp the designs and inscriptions on both sides of the coin simultaneously. At this point, the blanks become

Gunmen attack a book shop in Potiskum, killing 2 .
In Damaturu, gunmen first attacked police offices before moving to churches, mosques .
"It is a very bad scene," a Red Cross official says .

Lagos, Nigeria (CNN) -- A series of bomb and gun attacks targeting police stations, mosques and churches left 65 people dead in northeastern Nigeria, the Red Cross said Saturday. Attackers also left scores injured -- probably more than 100 -- in a three-hour rampage in the Yobe state city of Damaturu, according to Ibrahim Bulama of the Red Cross. Sixty-three people died. "It is a very bad scene," he said. Gunmen first attacked the police headquarters and the anti-terror office before moving to churches and mosques, he said. Most of the casualties were police officers. In Potiskum, also located in Yobe state, gunmen attacked a book shop near the police station, killing two and injuring 5, the Red Cross said. The Friday attacks came the same day suicide bombers suspected to belong to a militant Islamist group targeted a military base in nearby Maiduguri. Three suicide bombers drove a stolen black SUV toward a Joint Task Force headquarters, but could not get through the gate, military spokesman Lt. Col. Hassan Mohammed said. The blast damaged roofs and walls of the base. Mohammed said two other simultaneous explosions took place at other military facilities. An unspecified number of Nigerian soldiers suffered injuries. Saturday evening, a suicide bomber launched another attack in Maiduguri, Mohammed said. No casualties were reported except for the bomber. He blamed the militant group Boko Haram for the attacks. Loosely translated, the group's name means "Western education is sinful." It wants to establish a state based on Sharia, or Islamic law, in northern Nigeria. The Red Cross official said Boko Haram is suspected in the Damaturu attack as well.

Which motorcycle stuntman set a world record in February 1971, by jumping 19 cars?
|
The Man | Evel Knievel was born Robert Craig Knievel on Oct. 17, 1938 in Butte, Montana. After a police chase in 1956, in which he crashed his motorcycle, Knievel was taken to jail on a charge of reckless driving. When the night jailer came around to check roll call, he noted Robert Knievel in one cell and William Knofel in another. Knofel was well known as “Awful Knofel” (“awful” rhyming with “Knofel”) so Knievel began to be referred to as Evel Knievel (“Evel” rhyming with “Knievel”). He chose this misspelling because of his last name and because he didn’t want to be considered “evil”. And thus the legend was born… “THE PEOPLE DON’T COME TO SEE ME DIE. THEY COME TO SEE ME DEFY DEATH.” Death-defying feats have fascinated mankind for centuries. From sword swallowers to human cannonballs, the daredevils of history have risked life and limb to draw a crowd. Few performers gained lasting fame. But in the 1970’s a motorcycle-jumping stuntman from Butte, Montana vaulted this tradition from its sideshow origins to unthinkable heights of popularity and influence. Evel Knievel made the leap from rural county fairs to sold-out stadiums through a unique combination of bravado, determination, and promotional genius. He invented himself and his business, jumping, crashing, and miraculously recovering to promise even more outrageous stunts to come. A generation of kids grew up transfixed by his televised exploits, imitating his stunts on bicycles and with Evel Knievel toys. Evel’s first jump was i n1966 at the National Date Festival in Indio, California. From that point on, Knievel’s stunts became more ambitious and more dangerous. Some of his most memorable jumps include Caesars Palace (1967), Madison Square Garden (1971), Twin Falls, Idaho, Snake River Canyon(1975), and of course the famous Wembley Stadium jump (1975). When USA ABC’s Wide World of Sports collated the top twenty most watched sporting moments of all time, Evel featured five times – including the top spot. In one of his first jumps for ABC’s Wide World of Sports, Knievel successfully jumped 50 stacked cars at the Los Angeles Coliseum in front of a crowd of 35,000. This performance lead to a world record where Evel jumped 14 greyhound buses at King’s Island amusement park in Ohio in 1975, four months after a spectacular crash in the jump over 13 buses at Wembley Stadium in London, England – which remains ABC’s Wide World of Sports’ highest rated show of all time. Teach your kids about good and Evel. With the throttle wide-open, Evel Knievel went head to head with danger and lived to tell the tale. Despite failed jumps, crashes, and multiple broken bones, he always rose to perform again. This unconventional attitude to do things that had never been done before is exactly what made him a global icon. Evel Knievel is an inspiration to people – young and old – who recognize they want to be in control of their own destiny. People who want to go out and do great things. People who use drive, determination, personality, and hard work to become their own legend. AN AMERICAN ICON From his humble roots in the unlikely town of Butte, MT, Knievel rode his motorcycle and guts to an unparalleled level of worldwide glory and fame, much of which he still carries with him today: King of the Daredevils, The Last of the Gladiators, The Godfather of Extreme Sports, Guinness Book of Records holder for the most bones broken, an unwavering optimist, a doer, a go-getter, self-promoter extraordinaire, media genius, an enigmatic folk hero — an American legend. Knievel’s nationally televised motorcycle jumps, including his 1974 attempt to jump Snake River Canyon at Twin Falls, Idaho, represent four of the twenty most-watched, including the number 1 spot, ABC’s Wide World of Sports events in history. His achievements and failures, including his record 35 broken bones, earned him several entries in the Guinness Book of World Records. These are the titles by which millions of people around the world know Evel Knievel. Evel Knievel spoke a prayer to himself before every jump, whether it

Michigan banned the use of race in college admissions in 2006 but a recent case tried to change that ruling .
Supreme Court ruled that the ban would remain in place with a 6-2 vote .
Normally all nine of the justices vote but Elena Kagan sat out because she previously worked on the case when she was at the Justice Department .
|
The Supreme Court has upheld Michigan's ban on using race as a factor in college admissions in a ruling this morning. The . justices said in a 6-2 decision that Michigan voters had the right to . change their state constitution in 2006 to prohibit public colleges and . universities from taking account of race in admissions decisions. The justices said that a lower federal court was wrong to set aside the change as discriminatory. Justice . Anthony Kennedy said voters chose to eliminate racial preferences, . presumably because such a system could give rise to race-based . resentment. Ruling from the highest court: The Supreme Court knocked down a case that came from the Michigan circuit court asking for the ban on affirmative action considerations to be added back into the college admissions process . Kennedy said nothing in the Constitution or the court's prior cases gives judges the authority to undermine the election results. 'This case is not about how the debate about racial preferences should be resolved. It is about who may resolve it,' Kennedy said. In dissent, Justice Sonia Sotomayor said the decision tramples on the rights of minorities, even though the amendment was adopted democratically. 'But without checks, democratically approved legislation can oppress minority groups,' said Sotomayor, who read her dissent aloud in the courtroom Tuesday. Justice Ruth Bader Ginsburg sided with Sotomayor in dissent. At 58 pages, Sotomayor's dissent was longer than the combined length of the four opinions in support of the outcome. Chief Justice John Roberts and Justices Stephen Breyer, Samuel Alito, Antonin Scalia and Clarence Thomas agreed with Kennedy. Dissent: Justice Sonia Sotomayor wrote a lengthy 58-page dissent against the ruling, warning that laws that remain unchecked could lead to oppressing minorities . Justice Elena Kagan did not take part in the case, presumably because she worked on it at an earlier stage while serving in the Justice Department. In 2003, the Supreme Court upheld the consideration of race among many factors in college admissions in a case from Michigan. Three years later, affirmative action opponents persuaded Michigan voters to change the state constitution to outlaw any consideration of race. The 6th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals said the issue was not affirmative action, but the way in which its opponents went about trying to bar it. In its 8-7 decision, the appeals court said the provision ran afoul of the Equal Protection Clause of the U.S. Constitution's 14th Amendment because it presents an extraordinary burden to affirmative action supporters who would have to mount their own long, expensive campaign to repeal the constitutional provision. Support: Justice Anthony Kennedy, long considered the swing vote on the nine-person bench, said voters chose to eliminate racial preferences, presumably because such a system could give rise to race-based resentment . Similar voter-approved initiatives banning affirmative action in education are in place in California and Washington state. A few other states have adopted laws or issued executive orders to bar race-conscious admissions policies. Black and Latino enrollment at the University of Michigan has dropped since the ban took effect. At California's top public universities, African-Americans are a smaller share of incoming freshmen, while Latino enrollment is up slightly, but far below the state's growth in the percentage of Latino high school graduates. The case was the court's second involving affirmative action in as many years. In June, the justices ordered lower courts to take another look at the University of Texas admissions plan in a ruling that could make it harder for public colleges to justify any use of race in admissions. The case is Schuette v. Coalition to Defend Affirmative Action, 12-682.

PreHistoric Mammals Reference Needed!?

The program you refer to 'Walking with Prehistoric Beasts' was a Discovery channel production - everything on this channel is slightly off - it's not geared for truth and accuracy so much as it is entertainment and advertising revenue. John S. Hendricks, the company's founder, chairman and CEO seems like a good guy but his corporate partners are very profit-minded.\n\nPrehistoric mammals arose in the Cenozoic Era (65 million years ago till the present) which is divided into the Tertiary and Quaternary Periods.

Which book includes the characters Dr Primrose, Squire Thornhill and Mr Burchell?
|
The Vicar of Wakefield Chapters XVII-XXIV Summary and Analysis | GradeSaver Summary Chapter XVII Farmer Williams visits the family one day when the squire is there. The farmer's clear passion for Olivia seems to bother Squire Thornhill , and Olivia suggests to her father that the squire must have a reason for delaying in his proposal. The vicar and Deborah then decide to set a date by which Squire Thornhill must act, after which they will give Olivia's hand to Farmer Williams. Slyly, they let the squire know about this date. When the allotted time passes, the disappointed family prepares for Olivia's impending marriage to the farmer. One day, they are having a nice time together, during which the youngest son Bill sings a song entitled "An Elegy on the Death of a Mad Dog." In the song, a man is bitten by a dog he loved, which saddens his neighbors, who believe he will die of the bite. However, they are happy when the man survives and the dog dies instead. Happy, the vicar notes how grateful he is that his family has such "tranquility, health, and competence" (76). Suddenly, Dick arrives with news that Olivia has left in a post-chaise with a gentleman who kissed her and said he loved her. Incensed, the vicar demands his pistols and prepares to set out after whomever this man is, but Deborah and Moses chide him for his excessive passion, and he calms down. After settling, he reflects on how he has lost his worldly happiness, and will have to find it in the afterlife. The next morning, the calm and confident vicar prepares to set out after Olivia, whom he will welcome back despite her sin, hoping to guide her to repentance. Chapter XVIII The vicar first suspects Squire Thornhill of the crime, but finds the man alone at home. Thornhill is shocked to learn of what has happened. The vicar then suspects Mr. Burchell , whom he remembers recently seeing in conversation with Olivia. He walks towards the races, where he sees a crowd of people. There, he believes he sees Burchell, but is not certain. After walking about seventy miles from home, the vicar falls into a fever from stress and despair. He is forced to stop at an inn, where he stays for three weeks while recovering. Left to his thoughts, the vicar develops a shame in his pride, since it had caused him trouble. After recovering, he sets off back towards home. On his way, he comes across a company of actors, and enjoys conversing with them as they travel together. However, he is embarrassed to be in their company when they arrive in the village, so he breaks off for an ale-house. There, a man asks him about his relationship to the company, and the vicar denies any association with them. The men then discuss politics for a while, and the man (who later is revealed as the butler ) invites the vicar to dine at his home. Chapter XIX The vicar accompanies the man to a magnificent mansion, where they continue to discuss politics over dinner. The man proves to be almost radical in his opinions, boasting that liberty is his ultimate goal. The vicar agrees that liberty is important, but believes that some men are born to rule while others are born to submit. He also argues that the rich are helpful because they diminish monarchial power by trying to claim it for themselves. It is within the middle class that art, wisdom, and virtue may be found. The vicar concludes by saying that he has known of many people who claim to be for liberty even though they are truly tyrants. The man insults the vicar over his opinions, but they are interrupted by the arrival of Mr. Arnold , the house's true master. It turns out that this man was only the butler, pretending to be the master. Mr. Arnold apologizes to the vicar, but the latter is distracted to see Miss Arabella Wilmot, the young woman who was engaged to his son George at the novel's beginning. It turns out that Mr. and Mrs. Arnold are her aunt and uncle. Seeing that his niece cares for the vicar, Mr. Arnold invites him to stay for a few days. The next morning, Miss Wilmot asks after George, and the vicar sadly explains that he has not heard

Hours after the news of his death was announced Wolves were knocked out of the FA Cup after a 5-3 third-round penalty defeat to Fulham following a 3-3 draw. The club are planning a full tribute before Saturday's Championship visit of Blackpool and Jackett knows Hayward deserves every honour. 'He is one of Wolves' favourite sons, not just at the club but the area. He was the owner for 17 years and when I met him he was a true gentleman. It is a life which should be celebrated,' he said. 'People within the industry spoke of him very well, Graham Taylor who was the manager here, and he was very well thought of by everyone in football. He had a first class reputation. 'When I met him over the last year and a half he was a true gentleman. 'Sir Jack put a lot of time and effort into the club, he started the development of the training ground and the fantastic ground we have here at moment. 'He will be missed and was very well thought of by everyone in the club.' Former Wolves goalkeeper Matt Murray also paid tribute to Hayward. Kenny Jackett (third from right) believes Sir Jack's life should be celebrated as the club plan further tributes . Wolves manager Jackett on Sir Jack: 'He is one of Wolves' favourite sons, not just at the club but the area' Murray made 100 appearances for Wolves before being forced to retire with a knee injury in 2008. He was in the side which won the play-off final 3-0 against Sheffield United to realise Hayward's dream of returning to the top flight in 2003. Murray said: 'I remember when myself and Robbie Keane were in Miami just chilling, and he heard we were there and sent his jet over to pick up Robbie and myself and our wives and put us up in a nice little hut on the beach. 'It was all off his own bat but he was so generous. He organised for us to swim with dolphins, took us to his restaurant and he was such a humble guy for someone who had done so well. 'He always made a fuss of the young kids at the training ground and he had time for everybody.' Chief executive Jez Moxey, who was appointed by Hayward, insisted his love for the club never waned. He said: 'He would tune in every single game wherever he was in the world, he was always doing a world cruise every year for four or five months. Day or night he would wake up and listen to the matches or try to watch them without fail.' Hayward looks delighted as he holds a scarf after becoming Wolves chairman in 1990 .
