  1. Re:Only the 4th ammendment? on Administration Claimed Immunity To 4th Amendment · · Score: 5, Informative

    The Declaration, the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights are currently housed in the National Archives. All three are written on parchment, not hemp paper. Parchment is treated animal skin, typically sheepskin. The Declaration was inked with iron gall ink. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory was commissioned to create a system to monitor the physical status of all three. The Charters of Freedom Monitoring System took digital photos of each sheet of parchment in 1987, each document divided into one-inch squares. Over time, the photos are retaken and compared to the original to look for signs of deterioration. Before the charters were recently reencased for display, a small tear in the Declaration was repaired by adding Japanese paper to the gap. This is the only paper in any of the documents. This is not to say that a copy of any of the documents was never written on hemp paper - just not the copies we see in the Archives Rotunda.

  11. Re:Is it limited? on Google To Offer Free Database Storage for Scientists · · Score: 1

    It is commonly abbreviated YB. As of 2007, no computer has achieved one yottabyte of storage. In fact, the combined space of all the computer hard drives in the world does not amount to one yottabyte. According to one study, the world's computers stored approximately 160 exabytes in 2006, with nearly 1,000 exabytes projected by 2010.[1] When used with byte multiples, the SI prefix may indicate a power of either 1,000 or 1,024, so the exact number may be either:

    you might want to pull out those scissors just so you don't have a second one... since you regret the one you already have. Of course having children changes your life. There are those of us that made a choice long ago to never bring a child into this world (learning from others mistakes/choices). I live for my independence and freedom... you just have to suck it up and accept the reality you created. Your baby deserves to be given all your love and to be raised feeling wanted.
