Was there a bird called Dodo and If so when did it become extinct?
It is not known exactly when the last dodo died, but it was believed to be sometime in the 1680s or 1690s. The dodo was not discovered on the Indian Ocean island of Mauritius until about the 1590s. It was a bird that had no fear of humans, having not encountered them before, so it was easy for sailors to catch and eat, even though most reports of the meat were that it was tough and sometimes unpalatable (usually due to cooking it for too long). It was a flightless bird, and quite heavy - around 20 kg, so it was not believed to be a fast-moving bird, although scientists differ in opinion on this. This meant it lacked the ability to escape terrestrial predators.
When humans settled permanently on Mauritius, they cleared native dodo habitat, destroying nesting grounds. They also introduced various new species, all of which were a threat to the dodo. Dogs and pigs killed the birds; cats and preyed on the young chicks; and Crab-eating Macaques were introduced from Asia - these ate the eggs of the dodo.

Is Dodo a good internet broadband?
No.1.Apparently it is unsecured.So possibly a hacker can see what you are doing and possibly gather personal info.
2.Although it is cheaper than most other ISP the signal is weaker than others,poor coverage especially compared with telstra.
3.Dowload speed is poor most of the time,as Dodo saves money by being last on the queue behind all of the others.
How long does it take to churn butter in the colonial times?
The amount of time it takes depends on the amount of cream being churned. You can make butter by hand even now by placing 1 cup of heavy cream in an empty quart jar with a tight fitting lid (mayo jars work well) and shaking it up and down rapidly, occasionally scraping down the sides. This takes a few people to pass it around as muscles tire but after about an hour you have sweet cream butter. It will be white. You can also use a mixer and keep running the beaters past the whipped cream stage and it will become butter.

What was the federalist definition of free government?
In particular, free government is designed to guard against the most insidious danger of government by the people-the tyranny of the majority over minorities. This principle applies equally to constitutional protection of religious, ethnic, racial, or other minority groups.
