WASHINGTON
Immigrants increase
Growing numbers of children of illegal immigrants are being born in this country, and they are nearly twice as likely to live in poverty than those with American-born parents, a report says. The study released Tuesday by the Pew Hispanic Center highlights a growing dilemma in the immigration debate: Illegal immigrants' children born in the United States are American citizens, yet they struggle in poverty.
Avoiding the worst
A new scientific study finds that the absolute worst of global warming can still be avoided if the entire world cuts emission of greenhouse gases. A computer simulation by the National Center for Atmospheric Research looked at what would happen by the end of the century if greenhouse gas levels were cut by 70 percent. The result would still be a warmer world but by about 2 degrees instead of 4. Arctic sea ice would shrink but not disappear, and sea level would rise less.
No Murtha suit
A federal appeals court ruled Tuesday that Rep. John Murtha cannot be sued for accusing U.S. Marines of murdering Iraqi civilians ''in cold blood'' because he was acting in his official role as a lawmaker when he made the comments to reporters.
WOLF POINT, MONT.
Rustler convicted
A northeastern Montana man was convicted of stealing 39 head of cattle in what appears to be the state's biggest cattle-rustling case in decades. Richard D. Holen, of Wolf Point, was convicted in Roosevelt County of eight counts of felony theft — one for each neighboring rancher he was accused of stealing from. Holen is in custody awaiting sentencing.
3 STOCKTON, CALIF.:
Woman charged
A woman kidnapped, raped and murdered an 8-year-old girl and stuffed her body in a suitcase that was dumped in a pond just a few miles from home, prosecutors alleged Tuesday. Melissa Huckaby, 28, was charged with murdering her daughter's playmate, Sandra Cantu, in a gruesome crime that has shocked and terrified residents of Tracy, a Northern California city of about 78,000, 60 miles east of San Francisco.
