    Robin Hood. The tale of "Richard the Lionheart" taxing the people to death so that he could have his Crusade. While his poor bro had to deal with people being upset over it. John had to pay from the Crusades at Richards orders, so the money that Robin Hood took was money that was to help the people. That is the tale of the evil Robin Hood.

    Obama's staff is on a budged. The more people he hires, the more he needs to ask the RIAA for money. Lucky for him, he got some RIAA people working with him.

  7. To Bad on Paper Ballots Will Return In MD and VA · · Score: 1

    I liked the electronic voting. Not having the simple touch screen will turn off some younger voters, and make voting take longer. All we needed was a paper printout backup. Also, in Maryland I thank you could already fill out on paper if you did not like the electronic voting.

  9. maybe not a bad thing... on Spelling Lists Deemed Too Distressing For Kids · · Score: 1

    1st: English, unlike many other modern language, has not had a reset. most modern languages fix their spell to speak every now and then. But, English has not. This make English very hard to learn. I learn in one semester to spell better in Japanese then in 6 years of English.

    2st: I think that the spelling list should be fully done away with. In the US we stop learning to spell after 6 years at 5 and 6 letter words. After that there is no class to learn to spell. I think that the 1st 6 years of spell class should go like this:

    Every day the instructor pick some words out of some big 20000 word list and ask the students to put down how they would spell it.

    The instructor looks at the work, then on the board goes over the types of mistakes one sees.

    Insert motivation

    Insert one on one help

    Over time the Instructor will grade on how the student is doing.

    The AMD 780 chipset does a good job with decoding video (blueRay, and h264), and run most games with there mid settings. It runs better then my high end, at the time, 2004 video card. It is not that they can't do it right. People have not been pushing them to. Now with the high use of video, people who never not use motherboard video are asking for more, and they are getting it.

    This is what, the 100th idea using Google Maps/Earth? they are just using the Google Maps API. Google is more open with people using Maps without paying some big Usage fee.

    What this is really about is the VERDE program. Now if Google was doing a real time status program I would have it sit on my screen all day.

    How would we move the food and other goods to stores? The total cost to transport by train is higher then Truck, and how would you get it from train to stores? A lot of power plants run on petroleum products, so the electric mass transit would have to be shutdown along with AC. Last, without food from the stores most people would starve to death. But there is one good thing; less people, less environmental effect.

    The world will be a better place with all the dam humans dead.

    Oil is drilled by many underdeveloped states that have little if any environmental regulations. Any less demand on the oil of the rest of the world would help decrees the environmental effect of accidents around the world.

    Bio gas raised the price of food around the world. They are good, but we should not trade lives for oil. IS that not what the dem's say? Hopefully the research will find a way to stop taking food out of people mouths.

    Full electric cars are cool, but we need to lower the price for electricity 1st.

    I am looking to buy one of the Hybrid SUV in the next year (I do have a need for a SUV; a part time job delivering newspapers). But I don't know if it would help with MPG.

    If we can't supple the Power; electric cars will not work. Till then, raising MPG, and drilling more oil are needed.

    The oil companies want to use shale. Wikipedia says at start it would be "between US$70 - 95" a barrel(with References). Ones it is up and running, it will stay economical at ~$50 a barrel (a number seen a lot E.G, CNN, Fox). Some around the world talk about economical down to $20 a barrel. Even the $95 a barrel would be a god sent to start (oil at $125 a barrel now). Also, the likelihood of war will have less effect on the price of oil.

    The oil companies have spend a lot of money finding economical ways to get shale, but the government is now preventing them to drill.
