Who signed the ten dollar bill?

All of the US paper currency is signed by the Secretary of the Treasury. The current secretary is Henry Paulson. Before him it was John Snow, and before him Paul O'Neill. Since paper currency does not wear well, it does not typically remain long in circulation. Most of the bills you use will likely have been signed by one of these three individuals. For a list of all of them beginning with Alexander Hamilton: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/United_States_Secretary_of_the_Treasury#Secretaries_of_the_Treasury

Where can you exchange paper Deutsch marks into dollars?

The official exchange of Deutsche marks has come to an end. However, you can still take your old German currency to the Bundesbank (Germany's Central Bank) and exchange it for euros. Most currency exchanges (banks, airport exchanges, etc.) will only buy currency that is still in general circulation. Specialized currency exchanges such as Euro Coin Exchange (http://www.webuyeuros.com/germany) will buy your old marks, and you can get paid in dollars without having to ship your cash to Europe.
