-	In addressing the question of whether it is better to be loved than feared, Machiavelli writes, “The answer is that one would like to be both the one and the other; but because it is difficult to combine them, it is far safer to be feared than loved if you cannot be both.” As Machiavelli asserts, commitments made in peace are not always kept in adversity; however, commitments made in fear are kept out of fear. Yet, a prince must ensure that he is not feared to the point of hatred, which is very possible. Above all, Machiavelli argues, do not interfere with the property of the subjects, their women, or the life of somebody without proper justification.	+	In addressing the question of whether it is better to be loved than feared, Machiavelli writes, “The answer is that one would like to be both the one and the other; but because it is difficult to combine them, it is far safer to be feared than loved if you cannot be both.” As Machiavelli asserts, commitments made in peace are not always kept in adversity; however, commitments made in fear are kept out of fear. Yet, a prince must ensure that he is not feared to the point of hatred, which is very possible. Above all, Machiavelli argues, do not interfere with the property of their subjects, their women, or the life of somebody without proper justification.
	Regarding the troops of the prince, fear is absolutely necessary to keep a large garrison united and a prince should not mind the thought of cruelty in that regard. For a prince who leads his own army, it is imperative for him to observe cruelty because that is the only way he can command his soldiers' absolute respect. Machiavelli compares two great military leaders: [[Hannibal]] and [[Scipio Africanus]]. Although Hannibal's army consisted of men of various races, they were never rebellious because they feared their leader. Scipio's men, on the other hand, were known for their mutiny and dissension.

The NATO bombing campaign:

	The proclaimed goal of the NATO operation was summed up by its spokesman as "[[Serbs]] out, peacekeepers in, refugees back". That is, Yugoslav troops would have to leave Kosovo and be replaced by international peacekeepers to ensure that the Albanian refugees could return to their homes. The campaign was initially designed to destroy Yugoslav air defenses and high-value military targets. It did not go very well at first, with bad weather hindering many sorties early on. NATO had seriously underestimated Milošević's will to resist: few in Brussels thought that the campaign would last more than a few days, and although the initial bombardment was more than just a pin-prick, it was nowhere near the concentrated bombardments seen in Baghdad in 1991. On the ground, the ethnic cleansing campaign by the Serbians was stepped up and within a week of the war starting, over 300,000 Kosovo Albanians had fled into neighboring Albania and the Republic of Macedonia, with many thousands more displaced within Kosovo. By April, the United Nations was reporting that 850,000 people, mostly Albanians, had fled their homes.

-	NATO military operations switched increasingly to attacking Yugoslav units on the ground, hitting targets as small as individual tanks and artillery pieces, as well as continuing with the strategic bombardment. This activity was, however, heavily constrained by politics, as each target needed to be approved by all nineteen member states. [[Montenegro]] was bombed on several occasions but NATO eventually desisted to prop up the precarious position of its anti-Milošević leader, [[Milo Đukanović\|Đukanović]]. So-called "[[dual-use]]" targets, of use to both civilians and the military, were attacked, including bridges across the [[Danube]], factories, power stations, schools, houses, nurseries, hospitals, telecommunications facilities and ,controversially, the headquarters of [[Yugoslavian Leftists]], a political party led by Milošević's wife, and the Serbian state television broadcasting tower. Some saw these actions as violations of international law and the [[Geneva Conventions]] in particular. NATO, however, argued that these facilities were potentially useful to the Yugoslav military and that their bombing was therefore justified. However it had it's share of misses among them was Chinese embassy in Belgrade.	+	NATO military operations switched increasingly to attacking Yugoslav units on the ground, hitting targets as small as individual tanks and artillery pieces, as well as continuing with the strategic bombardment.

Since the pig is one of the first [[List of domesticated animals\|animals domesticated]] by human beings for slaughter, many references to pigs are found in human culture. The suckling pig, specifically, appears in early texts such as the sixth-century [[Salic law]]. As an example of a law governing the punishment for theft, Title 2, article 1, is, in Latin, ''Si quis porcellum lactantem furaverit, et ei fuerit adprobatum (malb. chrane calcium hoc est) CXX dinarios qui faciunt solidos III culpabilis iudicetur''. "If someone has stolen a suckling pig and this is proven against him, the guilty party will be sentenced to 120 [[Denarius\|denarii]] which adds up to three [[Solidus (coin)\|solidus]]."

-	Phil Hare has been accused of distorting his military service. Mr. Hare, who served in the Army Reserves in the United States during the Vietnam War, claims to be a Vietnam veteran even though, legally, he is not. By federal law Hare's military service does not make of him a "veteran" of the Vietnam War because he had never served in Vietnam. When challenged about his military record by an actual Vietnam vet, Mr. Hare demanded to know the identity of the man. When the vet refused to give his name Mr. Hare reportedly told an aide to follow the man to his car and get his license plate number so he could find out who the man was. According to the vet, "As Mr. Hare was turning to walk away form me he paused, and turning back to my direction, he glared at me intently, and while leaning forward pointed his finger at me, and in a threatening and intimidating manner said, "I'll find out who you are!" Given the nature of Illinois politics, and Mr. Hare's reputation as a mean politician, I felt intimidated by the power of Mr. Hare's office and what he might do." <ref>[http://www.chicagonow.com/blogs/publius-forum/2010/06/ill-congressman-hare-puffing-military-record-and-intimidating-voters.html "publius-forum" </ref>	+	Phil Hare has been accused of distorting his military service.

-	As pointed out in Mark Russinovich's Inside the Windows Vista Kernel: Part 2<ref name="russinovich"/>, ReadyBoost caches all writes to the local hard disk: "the Ecache.sys device driver intercepts all reads and writes to local hard disk volumes (C:\, for example), and copies any data being written into the caching file that the service created". Experiments show that ReadyBoost may not cache reads when Superfetch is turned off. Since random read is slow for hard disks, performance boosts can be realized when ReadyBoost has expected data to read from. Thus, with Superfetch turned on, pre-populating data into ReadyBoost cache, the performance boost can be much higher than when Superfetch is turned off. {{Citation needed\|date=July 2010}}	+	As pointed out in Mark Russinovich's Inside the Windows Vista Kernel: Part 2<ref name="russinovich"/>, ReadyBoost caches all writes to the local hard disk: "the Ecache.sys device driver intercepts all reads and writes to local hard disk volumes (C:\, for example), and copies any data being written into the caching file that the service created".

In [[South Africa under apartheid]], [[white South African]]s were a majority even though there were many more [[Black people\|black]] South Africans.
-
-	In the [[United States]], the term majority refers to a group that is larger in population size and controls economic, political, and social resources. Given the shift of people of color growing in size that trends indicate will make them a majority, some argue that white Americans should no longer be considered the majority.
-
-	[[Historically excluded group]]s (HEGs) is term that points out the differences among different groups based on the degree of experiencing oppression and domination. The Feagin defining features are maintained while overcoming the complication with using demographics.

	**The part numbers of the Jetsons buttonholers 489500 and 489510 are very often confused. This is because the part numbers are not stamped on the attachments or on their clamshell cases, and the "one size fits all" user manual simply says "For 489500 or 489510". The only differences between the two models are 1) shank attachment point is stamped 'straight' on the low-shank model but 'slant' on the slant-shank model, and 2) the clamshell is green for the low-shank model but pink for the slant-shank model.		**The part numbers of the Jetsons buttonholers 489500 and 489510 are very often confused.

The following are Israel's primary issues of concern [ie with the rules of the ICC]: - The inclusion of settlement activity as a "war crime" is a cynical attempt to abuse the Court for political ends. The implication that the transfer of civilian population to occupied territories can be classified as a crime equal in gravity to attacks on civilian population centres or mass murder is preposterous and has no basis in international law.</blockquote>
