Hundreds Prepare To Cash In Their Gold and Silver Today At The America’s Best Value Here In Albert Lea! By CHRISTINA BUTLER 45"'' 83*5&3

Corporate Spokesperson for Ohio Valley Gold and Silver Refinery said, “We’re ready to spend the money.� It has become a frenzy for the Ohio Valley Gold and Silver refinery who opened up for business yesterday. Jason Horner, one of the managers, said he would expect to see a lot of broken and unwanted jewelry based on previous weeks’ history in a few hand selected sites at previous, similar events. Horner said, “Dozens of people every day cash in on old jewelry and walk out of their events with hundreds of dollars per transaction.� Tish McCutcheon, a customer from Lancaster, Ohio who we spoke to on the phone, attended a recent event and walked away with $412.87 from a little jewelry dish with unwanted and broken jewelry. “I think this is great. I have had the stuff in my dresser for years and knew not to throw it away, but never knew what to do with it. I think there were two rings, a class ring, a broken herringbone bracelet, and two necklaces that grandma had. I would have thought maybe 50.00 bucks would be great but $412.87 is a whole lot better,� McCutcheon said. Hundreds of calls come into our office for residents wanting to deal directly with the refinery on

their contracts, but in most cases that is not possible. The local residents this week will be in the unusual situation to do just that. What an unbelievable opportunity for this community. Gold is currently trading at over $1,200.00 per ounce and silver is just under $19.00 per ounce. Anyone can check the current market prices on gold and silver on the Internet. Ohio Valley Refinery also has a live feed with up-to-the-minute market prices displayed at the event. The event is also opened

to local businesses that deal with precious metals. Jewelry stores, pawn shops, dentists, medical laboratories, and some industrial manufacturing plants use or deal with precious metals. If your business deals with precious metals and you would like to discuss doing business direct with Ohio Valley Refinery you should call ahead to make an appointment. They offer several dealer programs and always looking for new long term clients. You can reach Ohio Valley Refinery during open times by calling (507) 373-6471.

My 37 years of lawn enforcement experience makes me the most qualified candidate to continue being your sheriff. My long term training and proactive service record is a great indication of past performance and what you can expect of me in the future. If elected, I intend to continue as your sheriff for another term – another full four year term. I have no intention of quitting mid-term. I will continue to be cost effective, to promote a sound budget and to work diligently with the county commissioners to be fiscally responsible with all of your tax dollars.

I ask that you, the Freeborn County residents, continue to support me with your vote for Freeborn County sheriff. I will continue to do my best in serving all of the residents of Freeborn County.

Sincerely, Mark Harig

Spokesperson for the event said he expects to spend in excess of $200,000.00 this week for vintage items and precious metals from local residents. At previous events when interviewed these transactions stood out: One person sold an old Gibson guitar that was purchased in the 1960’s for less than $250.00 to a collector at the event for $2175.00 Another person had a pocket watch collection that sold for $4600.00, with one of the watches in this collection bringing $375.00 of the $4600.00 talley. A husband and wife brought in a box of old Jewelry, wristwatches, coins, and two German daggers from WW2 and left $785.00 richer This is cool that something like this would come here to our town. Where else would this stuff ever be sold? The refinery has teamed up with the collectors for a 24 month tour of the United States, both big and small towns to dig up hidden gems.

Dear Voter,

As always, I will promote the safety of our small town and rural residents through well trained deputies and continued watchful patrolling of the area.

They are paying out right on the spot for my stuff. Unbelievable!!

Representatives are on hand all week purchasing all types of coins dated 1964 and earlier. Silver dollars, halves and quarters are expected to arrive in large quantities. Lots of gold coins are expected to arrive as well. Rebecca Hughes of Florence walked away with over $1200.00 after selling a $20 gold piece from 1888 at a previous event. At the event, they will be

In the past seven years, I have accomplished many goals They Are:

• Specialised Training for Department • Emergency Management Planning • Numerous Equipment Upgrades • Collaboration with many other state, area and local departments • Economic Fiscal Responsibility • Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Contract • Obtained Fire Department ARMER Grant for 1.4 million dollars. New radio equipment to be shared by 16 fire departments in Freeborn County. And Radio Tower Enhancements.

As in every business, some employees do not like change or understand why change is needed. Sometimes they are vocal about these changes, bringing down moral of the team effort. I have a top notch dedicated team and will continue to recognize and develop the strengths and abilities of each employee. My goal is to continue making Freeborn County one of the best trained and organized sheriff’s departments in the state.

For More Information Go To www.markharig.com Paid for by the Mark Harig for Sheriff committee, Joyce Culhane, Treasurer

2009 ICE CONTRACT

We signed a contract with Immigration to house and transport illegal aliens. This contract provide 17 new full time jobs. Minnesotans pay federal tax from every paycheck. Federal budgets are built on tax dollars collected. Minnesota receives less than many states on federal tax dollars returned. We receive about 90 cents on each dollar taxed federally. This contract for 80 beds has generated over two million dollars since June 15, 2009. This income pays salaries and benefits. It puts dollars in the general fund to pay operating costs, depreciation and creates efficient use of our facility. This reduces our building debt with revenue instead of local tax dollars. This contract came during an economic downturn and guarantees revenue being earned at a time our neighbors also built new jails and no longer require use of our bed space. This is a very positive decision by your Sheriff, Commissioners and Corrections Officials. Details at www.markharig.com

GOALS FOR MY NEXT TERM

Mobile Date Terminals In Car Camera Equipment Next Generation 9-1-1 Upgrades Policy & Procedure Enhancements Emergency Operations Center Functionality Prescription Drug Disposal Program Restructuring of Personnel: Emergency Mgt. Enhanced Training for Investigators

Being your Sheriff has been a privilege! I hope to meet as many of you as possible during this campaign. If for some reason I did not greet you personally, my many duties as your Sheriff may have prevented me from doing so. I take my responsibilities seriously and maintaining my Sheriff’s duties takes preference over politics.

A Two Part Session - $8.00 per person total for the 2 sessions Tuesdays, August 3 and August 10 from 5:30-6:30 pm. Grocery store tours are one of the best ways to learn healthy eating, because the information is practical and hands-on. Come walk the aisles with me and learn about the NuVal™ system, how to read labels and over all how to be healthier by the choices you make every time you go shopping. This class is a two-part session because of the length of time it takes to comb the entire store. In the first session, we will discuss produce, dairy and start in the aisles. In the second session we will finish in the aisles, cover meat, frozen and the HealthMarket area. Please register at Community Education. Online registration available at www.albertlea.k12.mn.us or by phone at 379-4834.

HERE’S SUDOKU HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

A Two Part Session - $8.00 per person total for the 2 sessions Tuesdays, August 3 and August 10 from 5:30-6:30 pm. Grocery store tours are one of the best ways to learn healthy eating, because the information is practical and hands-on. Come walk the aisles with me and learn about the NuVal™ system, how to read labels and over all how to be healthier by the choices you make every time you go shopping. This class is a two-part session because of the length of time it takes to comb the entire store. In the first session, we will discuss produce, dairy and start in the aisles. In the second session we will finish in the aisles, cover meat, frozen and the HealthMarket area. Please register at Community Education. Online registration available at www.albertlea.k12.mn.us or by phone at 379-4834.

HERE’S SUDOKU HOW IT WORKS: Sudoku puzzles are formatted as a 9x9 grid, broken down into nine 3x3 boxes. To solve a sudoku, the numbers 1 through 9 must fill each row, column and box. Each number can appear only once in each row, column and box. You can figure out the order in which the numbers will appear by using the numeric clues already provided in the boxes. The more numbers you name, the easier it gets to solve the puzzle!

Hundreds Prepare To Cash In Their Gold and Silver Today At The America’s Best Value Here In Albert Lea! By CHRISTINA BUTLER 45"'' 83*5&3

Corporate Spokesperson for Ohio Valley Gold and Silver Refinery said, “We’re ready to spend the money.� It has become a frenzy for the Ohio Valley Gold and Silver refinery who opened up for business yesterday. Jason Horner, one of the managers, said he would expect to see a lot of broken and unwanted jewelry based on previous weeks’ history in a few hand selected sites at previous, similar events. Horner said, “Dozens of people every day cash in on old jewelry and walk out of their events with hundreds of dollars per transaction.� Tish McCutcheon, a customer from Lancaster, Ohio who we spoke to on the phone, attended a recent event and walked away with $412.87 from a little jewelry dish with unwanted and broken jewelry. “I think this is great. I have had the stuff in my dresser for years and knew not to throw it away, but never knew what to do with it. I think there were two rings, a class ring, a broken herringbone bracelet, and two necklaces that grandma had. I would have thought maybe 50.00 bucks would be great but $412.87 is a whole lot better,� McCutcheon said. Hundreds of calls come into our office for residents wanting to deal directly with the refinery on

Gold is currently trading at over $1,200.00 per ounce and silver is just under $19.00 per ounce. Anyone can check the current market prices on gold and silver on the Internet. Ohio Valley Refinery also has a live feed with up-to-the-minute market prices displayed at the event. The event is also opened

My 37 years of lawn enforcement experience makes me the most qualified candidate to continue being your sheriff. My long term training and proactive service record is a great indication of past performance and what you can expect of me in the future. If elected, I intend to continue as your sheriff for another term – another full four year term. I have no intention of quitting mid-term. I will continue to be cost effective, to promote a sound budget and to work diligently with the county commissioners to be fiscally responsible with all of your tax dollars.

I ask that you, the Freeborn County residents, continue to support me with your vote for Freeborn County sheriff. I will continue to do my best in serving all of the residents of Freeborn County.

Sincerely, Mark Harig

Spokesperson for the event said he expects to spend in excess of $200,000.00 this week for vintage items and precious metals from local residents. At previous events when interviewed these transactions stood out: One person sold an old Gibson guitar that was purchased in the 1960’s for less than $250.00 to a collector at the event for $2175.00 Another person had a pocket watch collection that sold for $4600.00, with one of the watches in this collection bringing $375.00 of the $4600.00 talley. A husband and wife brought in a box of old Jewelry, wristwatches, coins, and two German daggers from WW2 and left $785.00 richer This is cool that something like this would come here to our town. Where else would this stuff ever be sold? The refinery has teamed up with the collectors for a 24 month tour of the United States, both big and small towns to dig up hidden gems.

Dear Voter,

As always, I will promote the safety of our small town and rural residents through well trained deputies and continued watchful patrolling of the area.

They are paying out right on the spot for my stuff. Unbelievable!!

In the past seven years, I have accomplished many goals They Are:

• Specialised Training for Department • Emergency Management Planning • Numerous Equipment Upgrades • Collaboration with many other state, area and local departments • Economic Fiscal Responsibility • Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) Contract • Obtained Fire Department ARMER Grant for 1.4 million dollars. New radio equipment to be shared by 16 fire departments in Freeborn County. And Radio Tower Enhancements.

As in every business, some employees do not like change or understand why change is needed. Sometimes they are vocal about these changes, bringing down moral of the team effort. I have a top notch dedicated team and will continue to recognize and develop the strengths and abilities of each employee. My goal is to continue making Freeborn County one of the best trained and organized sheriff’s departments in the state.

2009 ICE CONTRACT

We signed a contract with Immigration to house and transport illegal aliens. This contract provide 17 new full time jobs. Minnesotans pay federal tax from every paycheck. Federal budgets are built on tax dollars collected. Minnesota receives less than many states on federal tax dollars returned. We receive about 90 cents on each dollar taxed federally. This contract for 80 beds has generated over two million dollars since June 15, 2009. This income pays salaries and benefits. It puts dollars in the general fund to pay operating costs, depreciation and creates efficient use of our facility. This reduces our building debt with revenue instead of local tax dollars. This contract came during an economic downturn and guarantees revenue being earned at a time our neighbors also built new jails and no longer require use of our bed space. This is a very positive decision by your Sheriff, Commissioners and Corrections Officials. Details at www.markharig.com

GOALS FOR MY NEXT TERM

Mobile Date Terminals In Car Camera Equipment Next Generation 9-1-1 Upgrades Policy & Procedure Enhancements Emergency Operations Center Functionality Prescription Drug Disposal Program Restructuring of Personnel: Emergency Mgt. Enhanced Training for Investigators

Being your Sheriff has been a privilege! I hope to meet as many of you as possible during this campaign. If for some reason I did not greet you personally, my many duties as your Sheriff may have prevented me from doing so. I take my responsibilities seriously and maintaining my Sheriff’s duties takes preference over politics.
