Elizabeth Fry

Long before Ahmad Rahami became notorious as the suspect in this weekend's bombings in and around New York, his family was known in Elizabeth, New Jersey, for frequent skirmishes with neighbors over its fried chicken restaurant.

A new polymer banknote featuring wartime leader Winston Churchill went into circulation on Tuesday in Britain -- one of the first European countries with notes that, literally, can be laundered.

Thomas Rolfes's fiancee, Elizabeth Fried, told the Advocate that she woke up on Saturday morning to discover that Rolfes hadn't come back to the couple's hotel.

The British public will for the first time be able to help decide which historic figure - in this case a creative one - appears on the next version of the country's 20 pound note, the Bank of England said on Tuesday.

British 19th century novelist Jane Austen will become the face of the new 10 pound note, the Bank of England said yesterday, defusing criticism that women are under-represented on the country's currency.

Britain is set to honour its revered wartime leader Winston Churchill with a banknote featuring his portrait and famous declaration "I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat".
