Why does the northern border of Minnesota jump into Canada?

In the Treaty of Paris ending the American Revolution it was agreed that part of the northern border between British North America (Canada) and the United States would be at the source of the Mississippi. However, the source was not discovered when the treaty was written in 1789, but it was assumed to be at the Lake of the Woods, even though it was later discovered to be at Lake Itasca, several miles to the southwest. The border, was later defined at the 49th parallel in 1846 until it meets the Lake of the Woods, which explains the Northwest Angle

How long does a violation stay on your driving record in Alabama?

Most are five (5) years. It depends on the violation. Speeding and other "moving" violations are counted against you with insurance companies for five with minor or non-moving violations counted for three (3). Not sure on DUI's.

How many YMCA are there?

There are 2,686 YMCA's located all around the world. You can visit YMCA.net to learn more about the organization and what they do!

Im sorry but whoever said that is definitely wrong, I believe there are 2686 in the US, typical ignorant American probably doesn't realise the YMCA extends far beyond the US, it was founded in England so it isn't even an American company.

The Y affiliates itself with international alliances, so there are 33 national YMCA's ranging from India to the US to Argentina and Australia.

I know that the US has 2686 and Australia has over 500, not sure how you'd go about finding out the exact worldwide amount

What is the value of a 1949 Brooklyn Dodgers ball signed by 26 players and coaches including 7 Hall Of Fame players?

According to the collector's price guide, "Team Baseballs," your ball is worth between $600-850, with value being greater or lower depending on exact players present - in particular, the inclusion or exclusion of Jackie Robinson, Roy Campanella, Gil Hodges, Duke Snider, etc - plus the all-important overall condition of the ball and autographs. Other key factors include type of ball (is it an "Official National League" ball?), whether there are any "clubhouse signatures" (autographs signed for players by ballboys, attendants, etc), and total number of signatures present. A large percentage of Brooklyn Dodgers team-signed balls were signed by clubhouse personel to meet the demand for Bums momentos, and are often difficult to detect from the real thing. These factors, plus the authenticity of the significant signatures are the main variables in determining value.
