How did charters facilitate colonization in the Americas?
07.February, 2010
In the 1600s European governments issued charters that gave trading companies rights that only governments had, such as maintaining an army and navy, declaring war or maintaining a new area of land. How did this help/support colonization?
A charter established certain rights for the colonizing company that were denied to any competitors. Only the company might control trade with the new colony. In the case of the Netherlands, in accord with charters granted to the Dutch East Indies Company and Dutch West Indies Company, sailing ships of the companies, called by the British "Dutchmen," were heavily armed for combat as well as transport. A chartered company could attract investors in Europe who bought shares of stock without actually going to the colonies. The company could use the money to maintain the colonies and pay back the shareholders by exporting raw materials from the colonies to other parts of the world.

What are some part time jobs in Charters Towers?
20.November, 2009
Hi. I’m 13 and 8 months and I am looking for a part time job to do on weekends or afternoons etc. in Charters Towers.
Cleaning, kitchen work, packing, running errands, gardening, babysitting, newspaper delivery are some of the jobs available. These jobs will be posted in local newspapers and billboards. A better option is to work from home on your computer – write articles, sell on eBay, make a website, take surveys. In some cases, you may have to set up an account in your parents or guardians name, and ask them to pay you, after they get the money for your work. More details are available at http://kj9.info

What will my average download and upload speeds be if I have charters up to 10mbps?
27.October, 2009
im getting this package from charter tomorrow and I’m just wondering what kind of download and upload speeds should I expect?
No way to tell, since the speed of a download depends on the speed of the path between your provider and the server you’re downloading from, and the provider has no control over that (it’s determined by all the routers on the internet). If the server is close to your provider’s POP (place where they enter the internet), it could approach 10mbps. If it’s distant (over about 100 miles), it’ll seldom exceed 600kbps. But you could do 16 simultaneous downloads at that speed with a 10mbps connection. (IOW, my wife plays WoW and uses Skype at the same time. I’m doing downloads, watching something on YouTube or abc.com and using the phone [which is VoIP over the internet connection] and everything is going at full speed. But no single connection is using more than about 600kbps bandwidth.)
Unless you do a LOT of things simultaneously, any speed or lag problem you see won’t be due to your connection. (You can always check that at http://www.speedtest.net/ )

What is the Universal Declaration of human rights and how has it evolved into other treaties, charters?
need helm mainly with how was it evolved into other treaties, charters?
thanks
It’s a statement of principles about human rights. Its adoption led to other treaties such as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, the Convention Against Torture, and the Convention on The Rights of the Child.
The more general language of the Universal Declaration has led to the more specific rights and obligations in the treaties that followed.

A social club charters a bus at a cost of $900 to take a group of members on an excursion to Atlantic City.?
13.October, 2009
A social club charters a bus at a cost of $900 to take a group of members on an excursion to Atlantic City. At the last minute five people in the group decided not to go. This raises the transportation cost per person by $2. How many people originally intended to take the trip?
Please show how to solve the question. I already know the answer (50). Thanks.
(900/n) +2 = (900/n-5 )
900 / n = the original cost per person
solve for n
