Prior to 1955, 100ºF readings were common in New York State. They rarely happen any more.
There are 30 HCN stations in New York which have been continuously active since 1930, and 90% of their 100ºF readings occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM. Ninety-three percent of those stations set their all-time record maximum with CO2 below 350 PPM.
Virginia has 12 HCN stations which have been active since at least 1930. None of them reached 100ºF this year, but in 1930 Virginia had a total of eighty-two 100ºF readings. Eighty-six percent of all 100ºF readings occurred with CO2 below 350 PPM.
All twelve stations set their all-time record maximum with CO2 below 350 PPM, and all but one set their all-time record maximum prior to 1933.
Bloomberg promised cash to Colorado Dems to betray their constituency, and he has proven again that he is willing to deliver.
New York City Mayor Michael Bloomberg has thrown $350,000 behind an effort to fight the recall of two Colorado Democratic legislators for their votes in favor of sweeping new gun control laws. Campaign finance paperwork filed Tuesday and obtained by KDVR.com showed that Bloomberg wrote a personal check to Taxpayers for Responsible Democracy, the group fighting the recalls targeting Colorado Springs Senate President John Morse and Sen. Angela Giron, of Pueblo.

Obama administration’s push for ‘shot across bow’ on Syria in response to last week’s alleged chemical weapons attack hits snag as Congress seeks chance to have input and key US allies hold up decision citing incomplete UN probe.
Congress, Allies Slow Push for US ‘Shot Across Bow’ Against Syria
The Constitution explicitly lays out war powers to Congress, not the President. Only a complete imbecile would accept Obama’s contention that Syria imminently threatens the US.
Is John Boner off crying somewhere this week?
AP SOURCES: INTELLIGENCE ON WEAPONS NO ‘SLAM DUNK’
WASHINGTON (AP) — The intelligence linking Syrian President Bashar Assad or his inner circle to an alleged chemical weapons attack that killed at least 100 people is no “slam dunk,” with questions remaining about who actually controls some of Syria’s chemical weapons stores and doubts about whether Assad himself ordered the strike, U.S. intelligence officials say.
The rowers were fortunate on July 23, when the hand of god guided them 30 km into a stiff wind with the GPS turned off, to get around point Tuk. It has been blocked with ice most of the time since then.
Obama said a “tailored, limited” strike, not a protracted engagement like Iraq

Obama believes that he can bypass the Constitutional requirement for a Congressional declaration of war, if he selects some random adjectives from his iLie phone application.
Fortunately he can see the future, and knows that it will just lead to a tailored, limited WWIII.
One might be inclined to believe that Arctic experts have absolutely no idea what they are talking about.
Because the findings so clearly demonstrate that more gun laws may in fact increase death rates, the study says that “the mantra that more guns mean more deaths and that fewer guns, therefore, mean fewer deaths” is wrong.
For example, when the study shows numbers for Eastern European gun ownership and corresponding murder rates, it is readily apparent that less guns to do not mean less death. In Russia, where the rate of gun ownership is 4,000 per 100,000 inhabitants, the murder rate was 20.52 per 100,000 in 2002. That same year in Finland, where the rater of gun ownership is exceedingly higher–39,000 per 100,000–the murder rate was almost nill, at 1.98 per 100,000.
Looking at Western Europe, the study shows that Norway “has far and away Western Europe’s highest household gun ownership rate (32%), but also its lowest murder rate.”
