Illegal immigrants to get ID cards in Connecticut
http://www.reuters.com/article/topNews/idUSN2227446920070722?feedType=RSS
Starting Tuesday, New Haven will offer illegal immigrants municipal identification cards that allow access to city services such as libraries and a chance to open bank accounts.
Supporters say the cards will improve public safety and give undocumented workers protections now afforded legal residents. Critics contend it will unleash a flood of illegal immigration, straining services and wasting taxpayer money...
Matos at Junta for Progressive Action... The new ID, she added, does not easily identify a person as an illegal immigrant. "That is the last thing that we want to have happen," she said...

RFK Jr. must be talking about his uncle Ted again.
..."Get rid of all these rotten politicians that we have in Washington, who are nothing more than corporate toadies," said Robert F. Kennedy Jr., the environmentalist author, president of Waterkeeper Alliance and Robert F. Kennedy's son, who grew hoarse from shouting. "This is treason. And we need to start treating them as traitors."...
The Vikings grew crops in Southern Greenland and Newfoundlanders grew grapes, and it was called Vineland. Get a clue!
...Primatologist Jane Goodall offered a greeting in chimpanzee language, before saying, "Up in the North the ice is melting, what will it take to melt the ice in the human heart?"...
The ice started melting up North at the end of the last Ice Age.

Going Back to the Stone Age?
Economics in Reverse
Making energy so expensive that you will become carbon-free.
By David Freddoso
In order to decrease carbon emissions by 33 percent, we would have to remove every existing car and truck from the road (yes, that includes your hybrid), ground every airplane, and shut down every gas station in the United States. In order to bump up from there to a 73-percent decrease in emissions, we would have to shut down most of our electrical grid, with the exception of areas supplied only by nuclear plants, windmills, and dams. No computers, no lights, no cars, no air conditioning. We’ve entered the third world already, and we’re still not anywhere near the 90-percent reductions that some respected climate scientists say we need immediately in order to save the planet. So why is it considered anything but a big joke when former Vice President Al Gore asks millions to pledge “to demand that my country join an international treaty within the next 2 years that cuts global warming pollution by 90% in developed countries and by more than half worldwide in time for the next generation to inherit a healthy earth”? ...

Artic Ice Sheets are Stable [Jay Richards]
Science Daily has reported on a new study published in Science by a Danish scientist named Eske Willerslev. It's one of those stories filled with scientific details that never seem to trickle up to the really big media. To really get the importance of the study, you have to read all the way through to the final paragraph:
That signifies that there was ice there during the Eemian interglacial period 125,000 years ago [when it was significantly warmer that it is now]. It means that although we are now confronted with global warming, the whole ice sheet will not melt and bring about the tremendous sea-level rises which have been the subject of so much discussion.
