• Obama’s Cap-and-Trade Tax Takes Us Back To The Dark Ages

  
  Right Pundits — Authority: 140
  The Cap-and-Trade tax reminds me of a medieval Catholic indulgence – a practice in which the sinners are excused from their mischief after they do some good work. In the Dark Ages, forgiveness was granted for any sin if the offender paid a good chunk of gold to the church. Greedy church officials collected ...

  Tim's Miniature Wargaming Blog — Authority: 123
  Yes, Finally… some Anglo-Saxons. Now, I had been working on some Anglo-Danes (yknow, for 1066 and all that)… and the only real difference between the Anglo-Danish and the Middle Anglo-Saxons (as far as I can recall - dont have the book with me..) is the three Blades (Danish Huscarls) replacing the upper crust of ...

• Norman Knights

  
  Tim's Miniature Wargaming Blog — Authority: 123
  FINALLY!! Here are the Norman Knights. With this (I think) I have enough Normans to field an army. Not an all options army… I don’t have the two Cavalry options… or the two Psiloi for that matter… but who wants sissy cavalry when you can have KNIGHTS!?

• British Robot Raps About Recycling

  
  Life within me — Authority: 138
  Nothing makes kids want to recycle like a rapping robot with a British accent. At least, that seems to be the thinking behind this weird and funny video of an educational presentation by The Housing Education Initiative – made just a little bit stranger by the robot’s sign-spinning backup dancer. Hey, whatever ...
