International money has always interested me a bit. Not in an economic sense, but more in a geographical one. So, I was interested to hear about a new collection of currency currently on display at Milwaukee School of Engineering's Walter Schroeder Library.

I came, I saw, I voted
Arriving early may have been good because when I went to vote this morning, at about 7:15, there was a line, but not like ones I've seen in the past.

Milwaukee, are you loony for dollar coins?
The government is serious about change, but I’m not talking about presidential campaign rhetoric. I mean pocket change; the U.S. Mint’s new dollar coins.

Crackheads spell success for local entrepreneur
A lot of college students do extracurricular activities, but few of them invent candy products in their spare time. That’s because few of them are John Osmanski, 26, who invented Crackheads candy during his years at MSOE.
