HELL MONEY - Hell Money


seems that at some point told the Chinese that they would all go to hell (GO TO HELL) and the Chinese believed that Hell was the English word to designate the place to be after death (Afterlife) so the interpretation of rather serious HELL MONEY: Money for after death, or money for the next life.

say they were the first preachers who came to China that they were saying these things to the Chinese. The Chinee thought: "Hell is the place where you go when you die", and of course you'll need silver wherever you go, so they began to print the Hell Money.

Eventually turned into tradition and now is considered good luck offering to the dead the Hell Money, and also Hell Bank Notes.


In the current epoch, in addition to Hell Banknotes, also issued credit cards and checkbooks, all legal use (of course, in the next life.)

below illustrates: a checkbook, a plane ticket (Hell Airlines), and a credit card.


This image below is of a passport (Passport Hell)


big names abound: 10,000, 100,000, 1,000,000 or 500,000,000 dollars.

In Singapore, it is common to find Tickets 10,000,000,000 dollars (10 billion dollar, for us 10 billion).


Chinese
But hell, seems to have no negative connotations is our hell West is more of an underground kingdom where he lives and reigns one God.



Some of the most modern airline no longer include the word HELL, and some even put words like HEAVEN Money (pennies from heaven) or PARADISE Money (money of paradise)

This is a ticket to the figure of Mao Tse Tung


And this is a ticket to the figure of John F. Kennedy


These tickets were offered, as we carry our dead flowers .... They put them on the graves of their loved ones or burn them to ashes. Nor think that any way to throw fire, but put them respectfully forming delicate figures and then burn them carefully.

Despite its appearance We look very comic (with its bright colors and cartoon people), in China they take it very seriously.


nice gift is not considered a person these types of tickets (I think rather that it is considered that the person who wishes death gives the other). And have these tickets at home is considered unlucky. But if it is considered good luck to get this money (purchased in packages of many bills) and give it to the dead.

I have none in my collection ... but just in case I do not want give away ..... no thanks.

67 Camaro Rs Project For Sale

Sky-high ticket Names (3)

We saw in the previous post notes that have the record for being the greatest, the world and of all time. Okay, now let's talk money "FALSE "
ATTENTION!, The following are false notes, not legal, are simple artistic reproductions that have no more value than the paper they are printed. I repeat, are false. After
do not go out there to say that I said that these notes are legal, because it denies, and I sue you for libel and slander ... ta?
For example, the ticket of Million Dollars, which THERE is only a joke, a joke, a toy ticket. Let's look
... here you get two versions I found (there are many more )....
And this is another version of the same ticket, other artistic creation that belongs to a different author ......
These tickets are sold online ( some sold here), and people takes to make a joke, or to feel the illusion of being the holder of a ticket so ....
And Euros?
Yeah, yeah.
all know that the ticket Euros highest denomination is 500 Euros ...... but, well, there are also other bills that are not of legal circulation .... That is false, which are artistic creations without legal value ....
Here I show the ticket for the Million Euros:
in 2002 and to commemorate Europe's entry into the Eurozone, a private company issued a ticket for a million euros (ISSUED 150,000 tickets in total).

These notes are not legal tender, were sold at about 18 dollars each.
But no more tickets are loose, they are now only a few sheets at a time without cutting, so if you want to buy some, then go to the site:
http://www.banknotables.com/
would be no evil that were true, they give you 1 Million Dollars Euros for 18 .... no?

Cost Of Keloid Surgery Nyc

Rare Coins (8)

Here is
coins that I find really strange ....
is a joint coinage of two countries ...
Kiribati and Samoa came together to create a single currency starting in two, each of the halves has legal value in the corresponding country.
At first I imagined the citizens of each country currency halves driving without holding the other half, but it seems that it is not, in both countries moving both halves without problem.
This is one of the coins, in this case, five dollars (ten dollars are the currency entirely and five dollars each half) ...


And here you can see the cone is split, both halves, you see, in one half said Kiribati, and the other half says Samoa ....



several different pieces were minted, here we have another ten-dollar coin (or two halves of five) displayed together and separately, and the right and backwards.


And why did this?
Well, because they must be good friends and get along. It seems
coinage that somehow marks the beginning of the new millennium (1999-2000), and these countries have a special claim. Samoa
seems to be the last country that sees the completion of the millennium in 1999 (time zones), while Kiribati seems to be the first country to see the entry in 2000.
(And I say "appears" because Tonga also claims to be the first country to see the new millennium)

Here you can see a series with a gold coin ($ 50 per half) and four Silver (from $ 5 per half).
The issue of gold is "Tempora mutantur" (do not ask me, not what it is, something like "time changes everything ", I think).
The themes of the four Silver are:
" Tempora mutantur "," Epochs and Empires "and" War and Peace "and" People and Monuments. "(bottom right is the reverse, which is common to all four)


As always, the images are scalable.

Home Makeover Contest 2010

10 games are unlike anything

is the title of the Castilian edition of Robert Abbott (Abbott's New Card Games) that RBA will publish books in their library of games.

Well ... Sid in the book Sackson "A lot of games" as they said in a note by the translator that Abbott's book published in the same collection so this is not a surprise
What is new is that it has released title of the book "10 games that seem to nothing." Nothing know I went to the English edition, it seemed to me that the games described did not reach ten.

And indeed, this is the case that the book comes with a bonus-game, unknown at this time. Open

bets gentlemen! In what game is? Personally, I would like the Epaminondas, but if I had to gamble money bet because it will be the Confusion, (his last game) but if it were a game would be unprecedented and the pump, though certainly I see this totally improbable. We will leave doubts

in June.

other hand I assume that updated versions of Eleusis and Auction.

take to say that a book of mazes logical fit RBA also in the collection, right?

Since almost never write, for once I do, I have to make to say that the book collection of Eric Solomon RBA, "19 games with paper and pencil" is another real gem.

How To Reset Pierre Cardin Suitcase

converter Dates Dates

If you know me, know my interest in deciphering the dates and legends that are in the currencies ....
few days ago, one of the readers asked me for a date in Thai currency (or tahilandesa), and research to answer, led me to try to make a script to convert these dates to allow more easily. Thailand
is called so since 1939, and before that country was known as SIAM . I have
and available to anyone who wants to use (even you), the script is below. You only have to look at the coin and go clicking on each of the symbols that you recognize. As you do will be forming the date in the three boxes below. (One for each ERA)
The script tries to identify which of the three ERAS gives the most appropriate conversion and indicated with a red arrow. My intention is to help, and accept suggestions of any kind, I think the script is improved and can and should be improved. In the future I'll see to make other scripts for other languages.



If you want to know more of the conversions and how to get to the calculation of the years, you read the post before this one that is: Dates
Thailand Coins

Can Olive Oil Be Substituted For Shortening

Thai Thailand Coins

coins in Thailand can be dated according to three Different eras. However, despite the fact that the symbols of the numbers are different from Westerners, the notation is positional, like ours and the system used is also the Decimal.

This conversion table can translate the numbers ...


Now let's see some coins (the images are of World Coins, my thanks to Krause that put my dispocicion)


In this coin you can see the characters 2, 5, 0 and 9 representing the year 2509, there are two characters (before four) representing the ERA (in this case the ERA BE).


And since we are in the ERA BE, here are two currencies over the same ERA, right here, below, without changing the channel.


Now a coin was Rs.


And these last are of the ERA CS


As you can see, the symbols that represent the ERA, may or may shine by their absence.

Well ... What are the ERAS?, How spread? and because they called so?


The ages range in the following ranges of dates.

* CS = 638AC to
* RS = 1782DC 1782DC to 1913DC 1913DC
* BE =

the date
The Age "Little" CS
is the Chula-Sarakat calendar (hence CS), and starts at year 638.AC, that and to calculate these dates in our calendar we add 638 years.
If the coin, the number you see is (eg) 1238, then in the Gregorian calendar (our) the date would be: 1238 +638 = 1876. So
would indicate the currency of our calendar year 1876.

The Age of "Bangkok" RS
This calendar, also called Ratanakosind-sok (hence RS) is used in coins before 1913, and began in the 1782 DC.
To convert a date in this calendar to ours should be added to the number 1781.
For example, in the Currency says 127, so we add 1781: 127 +1781 = 1908.
The coin shows the year 1908 of our calendar

The Age "Buddhist" BE
Since 1913 the currencies of Thailand use the Buddhist calendar (BE = Buddhist Era) The new year of this age is on April 30 be in our calendar. And the year zero is 543, which is when Buddha was born.
To calculate the year on our calendar to subtract 543.
For example: if the coin we have identified the number 2516, then 2516-543 = 1973
So the coin is the year 1973 in our calendar.


Here you can see that the annotation of the denominations of the coins is identical to ours, only different symbols.

Cat Large Hard Growth Belly

The dollar keeps falling ... Sky-high ticket

Dollar continues to fall and have to find new uses for these green pieces of paper so that we no longer use ...
Here are some ideas ...
Ornaments
your child's tricycle.

And for the holidays, a paper mache pinata ...

If you have to make a pedicure and paint your nails, and do not separate sponges alacanzan the fingers ...

newsprint we used before, but now the newspapers are so expensive ...

To light the fire.

A ticket on to save valuable ...

at the table a practical supports / sticks

parcels in order to fill voids ... to protect the valuable things you send by mail ...

To put some fiber in your diet ...

Well, out of joke, and although it seems a paradox, but the decline of the dollar can make the American economy will recover ...
In 2007, USA broke his own record of visitors with 56.7 million tourists.
This figure had not changed for seven years, but now, everything is so cheap that tourists are encouraged to go shopping in united states. Also
imports are growing, its products are paid in dollars and the dollar has dropped, so that all nations who usually buy them, now get more products for the same money as the cheap ...... and we must seize and buy more ....
For example, grain exports to India have increased.
All this does is this by injecting a large amount of money in the U.S..
Tourists hoping to open a clothing store in New York.
