New $100 bill discourages counterfeiting

The new makeover to the $100 bill may have you singing Ice Cube's "$100 Bill Yall" and give your wallet a colorful facelift, but in Lawrence it may not make a

given at drive-thru or bars with bad lighting. This happens mostly at places that are in a hurry and don't take time to check the bills, Sgt. McKinley said. But when it comes to a $100 bill, people take the time to glance it over with a curious eye since larger bills tend to have more of a stipulation.
Sometimes counterfeit money is
New advancements have taken years to develop, but for Lawrence it wasn't necessarily a long wait.
The Lawrence Police Department sees more counterfeit $20 bills.
"We don't see a big problem with [counterfeits of] the existing $100 bill," Sgt. Trent McKinley, Lawrence Police Department Public Affairs Officer, said.
Officer Keith Jones, evidence officer for the Lawrence Police Department, has seen counterfeit bills as small as $5.
"Even though I'm a police officer, it boggles my mind what people get away with," tones said.
New security features on the $100 bill deter just that.

When it comes to counterfeits of the new bills, "I don't think we will see it at all," Sgt. McKinley said.
A sheet of uncut $100 bills makes their way through the printing process. The new $100 bill has an array of high-tech features designed to thwart countertiters.
The Lawrence Police Department works with banks in Lawrence to deter counterfeiting and has an online database that lets banks view police alerts.
America Almazar, store manager of Peoples Bank, has been banking for eight years and said she doesn't see much counterfeit in the area. The holiday seasons
are usually when people get desperate. So desperate that she's seen bills from a colored printer.
"On average we see one or two counterfeits of $100 bills per year," Almaraz said. When it comes to
$20 bills, that number increases to five per year.
Other areas may have a different response to the new $100 bill, Almaraz said.
"Maybe it will make a difference
[in big cities],but I don't know how much of a difference it will make here. "

GRANT FROM PAGE 1
parents do not feel well equipped to handle what these kids are doing, saying and the way they're behaving, so the adoptions are disrupted and that's bad for everybody, so we needed to address that," Lieberman said. "If we are successful in the long term, we hope these children will overcome, to the greatest possible extent, their trauma, and live their lives as close to normative
as they can.
In addition to improving the Kansas adoption system, Akin said their plan could potentially serve adom.

as they can."
"Our hope is that the system we design will be a model for other states," Akin said. "What we think and hope it will do is increase evidence for the
entire field of child welfare in Kansas and beyond."
"What we see is if you don't address kids' mental health problems, they'll move around from place to place, and then it's next to impossible to find a family to care for them," Akin said. "So if you can create stability, we can reduce the number of times they have to move and reduce their use of institutional care like psychiatric hospitals."
Akin added that their grant project will save the state money as well, as it will lower the number of children the state has to provide for in the foster care system.
Because of the federal government shutdown, Lieberman and Akin have been limited in what they can do with their grant so far, but they plan to continue with the beginning stages of their project as soon as possible.

of Student Senate by creating specific groups that pass the torch from one generation to the next. Tetwiller said.
"All students should have an opportunity to participate," Tetwiler said. "Not just the ones I happen to know."
Tetwiler acknowledged that election reform, specifically this resolution, would be highly debated, but he said Student Senate could give more individuals an opportunity to be involved and share their ideas if the resolution passes.
Tyler Childress, Senate chief of staff and one of the authors of the election reform bill, said he wasn't always in favor of eliminating coalitions, but the more he worked with the election reform bill, the more he felt that coalitions do not allow for the most transparent and open elections possible.
"It'll foster more inclusion and make people feel more positive about the elections," Childress said.

The election reform bill will move forward regardless of the outcome of the coalition resolution, but Tetwiler and Childress agreed that eliminating coalitions would promote fairer elections and larger student participation with both Senate positions and voter turnout.
If the resolution passes, Childress plans to include language that will remove coalitions from the election process. If the resolution fails, coalitions will not be removed but will receive tighter restrictions like campaign spending caps and a shorter campaign period. As long as it passes committee votes this evening, full Senate will vote on the resolution on Oct.23.

added that she is impressed by their simple, elegant and functional designs. While studying at IED Madrid, Montes said she learned to think about design in a much broader way than she did before.
"I think of designing products not only as something that people can use, but as an expression of a philosophy, or something that has symbolic meaning." Montes said.
