	Complete List of NYS Attorneys General
		Between 1684 and 1777, the Colonial Attorneys General were appointed by the King of England, or the Colonial Governors on the Crown's behalf.
		Until 1702 he was appointed by the governor, after which he was commissioned by the Crown.
		By the Constitution the governor was required to do the appointing with the "advice and consent of the council." But in practice it subordinated the governor to the council whenever a majority of the assembly was politically opposed to him, and the annual election of the council greatly increased chances of such opposition.

	Colorado - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The state was named after the Spanish word "Colorado," which means "reddish colored" that presumably refers to the red sandstone formations in the area or reddish brown color of the Colorado River.
		Colorado is made up primarily of transplanted citizens, and this is illustrated by the fact that the state has not had a native-born governor since 1975 (when John David Vanderhoof left office) and has not elected one since 1958, in the person of Stephen L.R. McNichols.
		Bob Beauprez, considered a highly conservative politician, is running for the governor's seat in 2006 on the Republican ticket.

	A Brief History of America
		The British felt that the colonies existed for the benefit of the mother country and this attitude was bound to cause resentment.
		The colonies were printing their own money because of a shortage of currency but the act banned the issue of paper money in the American colonies (and so hindered trade).
		Colonial assemblies denounced it and in October 1765 a number of colonies sent delegates to a 'Stamp act Congress' to organise resistance.

		Lawson found in his travels through part of the colony in 1701 that visitors were housed and entertained at the cabin of the chief or headman in each town.

		There is an imperial theory of American colonial history which holds that the Americans behaved badly in the struggle with New France and that the victory was won by British gold and British blood.

	"Let Us End American Colonialism"
		The colonialism which the United States imposes on us and which we have suffered for 88 years, is no less burdensome, no less unjust, than that against which they poured out their blood and treasure.
		Colonialism has preferred to conserve the power and perquisites of a distant bureaucracy and the control and special privileges--the fish traps--of a politically potent absentee industry.
		But the keepers of Alaska's colonial status should be reminded that the 18th century colonials for long years sought merely to obtain relief from abuses, for which they--like us--vainly pleaded, before finally resolving that only independence would secure for them the "life, liberty and pursuit of happiness," which they felt was their natural right.

	DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE OF THE SIKH HOMELAND
		The constitution promulgated in 1950 was so inimical to the interest of the Sikhs that its leadership refused to sign the document in protest.
		Their homeland is being treated as a colony and made into a vast military - cum - police camp in which Sikhs are meted out treatment incomparably worse than that given to people in occupied territories during war.
		That the Governor and his Adviser swallowed it is a pointer to the state of indiscipline in the top echelons of police and indeed its supremacy over the civil administration.

	FRANCIA
		The only drawbacks are that (1) Thompsett's lists are, indeed, genealogical, which means it is sometimes hard to find unrelated rulers in a succession, and (2) the entries are very summary, without any explanation of may be happening as, for instance, domains are divided among multiple heirs.
		However, both Tompsett and WW-Person list Stephen Count of Champagne, Meaux, and Troyes (Tompsett twice, as son of both Herbert the Elder and Herbert, Count of Meaux, identified as "Herbert the Younger").
		While French colonialism may have had less of the racism and racial separateness that now seem characteristic of British practice, it nevertheless was rather more intent on imposing French "civilization" and less tolerant of taking "no" for an answer -- while the British condescended to allow quaint native customs and institutions to survive, within limits.
