We would like to know the value of them and possibly sell them. Do you have any advice on how to find an honest, reputable coin deal- er? -- Christy H., e-mail Dear Christy: Coin dealers are easy to find. Finding one who is honest and qualified is harder. You want a coin dealer who knows his topic well, who is financially stable, who is respected by his peers, who has demonstrated care for ethics, and from whom you have recourse in case of a dispute. I suggest that you consult the Professional Numismatists Guild, an association of coin dealers who have met a number of strict standards in order to join it. Click on "Find A PNG Dealer" at http://www.PNGdealers.com to find a referral in your area. Dear Mary: My aging parents are in declining health and may need to have long-term care outside their home in the near future. I want to protect their assets in the event that they have to go to a care facility. Two years ago, they had their wills updated to give me power of attorney (durable and health care), but I am concerned that it's not enough. Could you direct me to where infor- mation on this subject is available? -- Dan K., South Carolina Dear Dan: I applaud your desire to help your parents get their affairs and estate in order. It is good that they have been diligent to have their wills and health directives kept current. I am not sure what you mean by "protect their assets," but something tells me you might be more interested in protecting your inheritance from the costs of their future health care. Should your parents need assisted living, the cost will be significant. If they do not have long-term care insurance (you might want to look into secur- ing this for them now), some- one will have to pay for the cost of their care. If they are without financial assets, they may qualify for Medicaid in their state of residence. How- ever, until their financial assets are exhausted, it is unlikely they can qualify for such assis- tance. Doesn't it seem right to you that their money and assets should go to pay for their end-of-life expenses and that they shouldn't expect someone else to cover those costs? Hiding assets in order to qualify for state or federal government assistance is illegal. That being said, I suggest that you head over to http://www.nolo.com, a terrific Web site that specializes in legal solutions for individuals and families. There is an entire sec- tion on wills, trusts and estate planning -- information that you can rely upon to be accurate. Do you have a question for Mary?

Along with the studies on muscle spasms and pain associated with spinal cord injuries and AIDS, the center also has funded research on how marijuana effects sleep and driving, limb pain due to diabetes, and whether inhaling vaporized cannabis is as effective as smoking it. A laboratory study supported by the center examined if pot could be helpful in treating migraine headaches and facial pain. In that study, rats given a cannabis- like drug exhibited reduced activity of nerve cells that transmit pain. State Sen. Mark Leno, a San Francisco Democrat who chairs a budget subcom- mittee on health and human services and supports medical marijuana, said he doubted there would be more financial support for the center, given California's ongoing budget crisis. The federal government classifies mar- ijuana as an illicit drug with no medical use but produces the only pot legally available for scientific research under a contract with the University of Mississip- pi. Grant said obtaining some of the Mis- sissippi crop and meeting the complex security regulations required by the Drug Enforcement Agency and other federal agencies was time-consuming and cum- bersome. Grant had no problem with the quality of the government's supply. Continued from page 1A POT Suspected pipe bomb fake What was initially reported as a pipe bomb Wednesday turned out to be "garbage," said Sgt. Kevin Busekist. Around 4:40 p.m. a caller reported what looked like a pipe bomb at Kimball Crossing Apartments. On arrival, police found a black plastic tube with a brown screw-on cap in the northwestern corner of the parking lot, next to a Dumpster. After blocking off entrances to the parking lot, police spent about a half-hour evaluating the pipe. Officers promptly left the complex once they determined the item was harmless.
