The controversial $3 billion corporate tax initiative Measure 97 went down in defeat, according to partial election returns Tuesday night.
Measure 97 was failing 58 percent to 42 percent as of 9:50 p.m.
Supporters of Measure 97 were still figuring out how to respond Tuesday night. Ben Unger, executive director of the union-affiliated group Our Oregon which backed the measure, suggested a different tax proposal might have fared better with voters. "Clearly, we learned the tonight that the details weren't right," Unger said. However, when a reporter asked if the tax rate proposed in Measure 97 was too high, Unger said "I would be surprised if you talked to very many voters that found that that was the problem."
Pat McCormick, a spokesman for the campaign to defeat the tax, said Measure 97 "fell of its own weight when people understood what it would do" and now it's up to state officials to come up with proposals to balance the state budget. "The business community does have members that are very much committed to finding routes to go forward," McCormick said.
State economists in the nonpartisan Legislative Revenue Office estimated the tax would raise at least $6 billion for every two-year spending cycle, a 33 percent increase in tax revenue going to the state's current $18 billion general fund budget. That would have been the largest tax increase in Oregon's history, at least by dollar amount, according to Legislative Revenue Officer Paul Warner.
Those potential tax hits -- and the promise of new revenue for government services -- spurred businesses and public employee unions to the highest level of campaign spending in Oregon history.
As of Friday, opponents reported raising $25.9 million, while supporters reported $16.4 million. The previous record for the costliest Oregon campaign was set in 2014, when opponents of a measure to label genetically modified foods spent nearly $21 million with supporters spending $8 million.
Measure 97 started out with 60 percent support in a poll taken a year ago. A poll in September found the same level of support. But by mid-October it had eroded down to 46 percent and by the end of the month only 40 percent of respondents to one poll said they'd vote for it.
The central debate throughout the campaign was whether corporations or consumers would end up paying the cost of the tax -- and how much.
A study by economists in the Legislative Revenue Office found businesses would pass on part of the tax in the form of higher prices, and a typical Oregon family might wind up paying $600 a year. Grocery stores and other low-margin businesses said they would be forced to raise prices, because the 2.5 percent tax would obliterate their slim profit margins.
Supporters of the measure said no economic modeling -- including in a study they funded, by Portland State University economists -- could accurately estimate the impact of the measure.
The backers argued it was too different from gross receipts taxes in other states. And they offered state-by-state shopping comparisons to show that different tax rates didn't result in different prices.
But Measure 97 opponents also pointed to a written opinion from a lawyer for the Legislature that said lawmakers could spend the revenue as they wanted simply by passing budget bills, despite language in the measure calling for the money to be spent on early childhood and K-12 education, health care and services for seniors.
Gov. Kate Brown, lawmakers, public employee unions and the business community now face the challenge of coming together after the bruising battle to address the state's ongoing challenges.
Voters' rejection of Measure 97 means the governor and lawmakers must now pass a tax increase, budget cuts or some combination to fill a projected $1.35 billion budget shortfall in the next two-year budget. That estimate was based on the amount of money needed to preserve existing services and programs.

CanTeen New Zealand’s new ‘Never Alone’ campaign is designed to shock and get people thinking about the direct and indirect effects cancer has on young people.
The campaign, which is part of CanTeen’s annual appeal, officially starts on Friday but three alternate posters were put up around Auckland on the weekend with images of young people who have been affected by cancer accompanied by the words: ‘There are worse things than cancer’.
The anonymous posters were designed as a teaser to get people thinking about the effects cancer can have on young people, before the two-week long airing of the TVCs on TVNZ and Mediaworks' channels.
CanTeen’s marketing manager, Kimberley Waters, says the statement ‘There are worse things than cancer’ has already got a lot of people talking.
“It’s designed to get people thinking, and eventually to find out that what’s worse than cancer is actually going through it alone and not having a support system in place. The whole campaign is designed to be thought-provoking and impactful, yet we feel it is done in an authentic way. Nothing was scripted or prompted. Everything they say just came out of their mouth on the day. This is as real as it gets,” says Waters.
CanTeen worked with M&C Saatchi on the campaign, as well as Curious Films who produced the commercial under director Tammy Davis.
As well as the posters and TV commercial, the ‘Never Alone’ campaign has PR and web activity, and radio ads. The campaign is set to finish on September 29.

One of Taiwan’s leading scientists has expressed the hope that media reports about political figures will not technological development in Taiwan. Academia Sinica President Wong Chi-huey made the call in response to questions regarding a government investment in a biotech venture that has been at the center of a political storm.
One week ago, Academia Sinica President Wong Chi-huey issued a statement that said the Cabinet clearly understands that no illegality occurred during the establishment and operation of Yu Chang Biologics. And, that no such implications should be made against innocent people. This was widely interpreted as a complaint on behalf of DPP presidential candidate Tsai Ing-wen.
I didn’t say anything like that. That was the media’s interpretation, it’s headline. I said that this incident has caused national unrest. So, media reports should be based on the facts. There shouldn’t be any unfair reports. That’s all I said. This unfairness is not necessarily directed at Tsai Ing-wen but everyone involved in the case.
Although he does not want to be dragged into the political infighting Wong said he finds it unacceptable that the Yu Chang case is being described as being a case of corruption.
As a technical advisor to the Cabinet, I had a responsibility to assist in laying out an overall plan and concepts. Everything I know was written in my statement. I think this is a very sensitive time. So, everyone should be careful with what they say.
Meanwhile, a supporters club for Tsai Ing-wen was set up in the Hsinchu Science Park today. Tsai told the assembled crowd that the Yu Chang case displays a lack of knowledge of the biotechnology industry by the president. Tsai also said called on Council for Economic Planning and Development Minister Christina Liu to stop her baseless attacks regarding the case.

It is established in ten states in USA with the most recent discovery in the Rio Grande in Texas (Bean et al. 2007). Occurrence of this exotic tapeworm in the Rio Grande potentially is detrimental to native fishes, causing intestinal blockage and perforation, hemorrhaging, reduced growth, significantly decreased survivorship, and mortality (Scott and Grizzle 1979; Hoffman 1980; Granath and Esch 1983; Hoole and Nisan 1994; Hansen et al. 2006). Endemic fishes of conservation concern in the Rio Grande include Hybognathus amarus, Dionda diaboli, Notropis jemezanus, and Notropis Chihuahua and likely are affected by the tapeworm. The purpose of the first part of this study was to examine the presence and mean intensity of B. acheilognathi in Cyprinella lutrensis to determine spatial and temporal patterns in several reaches of the Rio Grande. The study also examined seasonal trends in tapeworm maturation and intraspecific competition. The second study assessed impacts of B. acheilognathi infection on condition and reproduction in C. lutrensis to make inferences about potential impacts on other endemic cyprinid species.

I must give credit to the Wordless ‘theme’ from an inspiring “Dissocial Mom Blog“ from here on WordPress.
formally known as *My Glitching Mind* now: Markovicharts; whom always has photos of fences and thought I’d share them (cuz theres at least one audience for it)!
After finding a new phone camera effects app “<a href="http://www.macnewsworld.com/story/77787.html“>My PopAGraph” and off I went to create some seriously cool photos!
These three top photos are actually the originals chosen from about 10 different these were best. They have the right blurred back with focus front (& reverse) that I was looking for.
Now, this was my first shot as using the PopAGraph iPhone app.
Of course, one for the kids and (poor tortured)pets.
I have been tirelessly trying to perfect my work with this app. I enjoy most sharing my little photo posts because truthfully, I don’t express words well and spend more time critiquing my writing–than actually Publishing posts!
And, Im getting tired of that frustration at self! Lol! GRR! I have picked up a University course self-paced for now, to assist in my writing process. Its all about willingness. In the meantime, from now on I’m giving up all the editing and just posting with you all my favorite family moments!
Very nice photos! Love what you did with them.
Also thanks for following my blog :). I am looking forward to reading your posts as it seems like your life is similar to mine ( I have read a couple of your posts so far ).

One of the few unquestioned highlights of this year’s Academy Awards was the live performance of Best Original Song nominee “Everything is Awesome” from The LEGO Movie. Tegan and Sara and the Lonely Island performed, Oprah got her very own LEGO Oscar, and Will Arnett moaned about darkness and no parents while wearing Val Kilmer’s Batsuit from Batman Forever. It was a great moment, but one that was totally out of touch with the spirit of the evening. According to almost every pundit and critic, everything was decidedly not awesome about the 87th Oscars.
The negative reviews were brutal; no wonder the show’s ratings were the lowest in six years. It was Neil Patrick Harris’ worst hosting job ever. It was the worst Oscars red carpet ever. It was the Oscars’ worst graphics and stage backdrop ever (at least according to Donald Trump, one of America’s leading experts on awards show graphics and stage backdrops). Birdman topping Boyhood was the Academy’s “worst mistake in 20 years.” The show was accused of breaking “their connection with the movies that many millions of people buy tickets to watch.” In this context, David Edelstein’s contention that this was “the best Oscars show in years (but it was still terrible)” felt downright generous. The internet does an amazing impression of The Simpsons’ Comic Book Guy.
Others focused on comments in and around the show they found offensive. Sean Penn made a green card joke about his friend (and 12 Grams director) Alejandro González Iñárritu when announcing Birdman as the year’s Best Picture; that one line “may have ruined the entire Oscars.” Minutes earlier, Patricia Arquette won the Best Supporting Actress award and gave an impassioned acceptance speech about wage equality (which “appalled” some viewers anyway) then made additional remarks backstage on the subject and was accused of “whitewash[ing] feminism.” There was so much outrage that New York Magazine was able to round up just the hottest hot takes into an entire list of Oscar freakouts.
The Oscars, just like movies or television shows or video games or anything else in the world of popular culture, are worthy of serious consideration. When filmmakers take political stands, that’s worth talking about. When we disagree with their political stands, that discourse can be productive as well. But too many of these articles are instant reactions conceived and executed in minutes (or, on social media, even less). They’re not designed to promote discussion, they’re meant to stoke further outrage from those who agree — and to stoke hate-reads from those who disagree. There’s no time to be serious. There’s only time to be upset, and then to move on to the next target.
Look, if you were genuinely offended by something at the Academy Awards, more power to you. But perhaps a little bit of perspective is in order. Sean Penn made a dumb joke when his friend won an Oscar. Patricia Arquette, in the midst of perhaps the most exciting moment of her entire life, muddled her message (she later clarified her thoughts, at length, on Twitter). Oscar winners describe the time after they accept their award as a blur. (“I can’t remember it at all, I just remember it being a sort of frenzied blur,” is how Eddie Redmayne put it yesterday on British television.) Patricia Arquette’s heart was obviously in the right place; maybe we could cut the borderline delirious woman some slack on the fine points?
The internet is a fabulous tool for communication, but I suspect these disproportionately angry reactions will eventually begin to stifle discussion. Patricia Arquette tried to take a stand for a seemingly good cause, bungled her thoughts slightly, and got vilified. At a certain point, what is the benefit for speaking out about anything? Eventually, every Oscar speech is going to look like Joe Pesci’s; five words and a hasty exit.
The reality is this year’s Oscars were pretty crummy. They were long and slow and they stopped the whole show to celebrate The Sound of Music but they couldn’t find room for Harry Belafonte to accept his humanitarian award in person. From my perspective, the wrong movie won in several categories. But you know what? The Oscars are always crummy and the wrong movie almost always wins. It was the worst Oscars ever when Rob Lowe and Snow White had their infamous duet back in 1989. It was the worst Oscars ever (“a shambles!”) when David Letterman repeatedly introduced Uma Thurman to Oprah Winfrey. It was the worst Oscars ever when James Franco and Anne Hathaway hosted. It was the worst Oscars ever when Forrest Gump won Best Picture instead of The Shawshank Redemption or Pulp Fiction. And that’s just one of a billion examples of films that went ignored by the Academy.
No matter how upset anyone gets, the Oscars will be back next year. No matter what happens, a fair number of people will argue they are the worst Oscars ever; God himself could show up with a resurrected Alfred Hitchcock as His date, and people would still complain. (I can see the headlines now: “What God Got Wrong About Bringing Hollywood Directors Back From the Dead.”) The Academy Awards could certainly do better, but they could also do worse. And the frenzy around the slip-ups is obscuring any conversation the lovely moments; the performance of “Glory” by John Legend and Common, the acceptance speeches by Julianne Moore, Graham Moore and, yes, Patricia Arquette. The LEGO Movie song was pretty good too. I’m not sure anyone was paying attention, though.

the negative reviews were brutal; no wonder the show’s ratings were the lowest in six years. it was neil patrick harris’ worst hosting job ever. it was the worst oscars red carpet ever. it was the oscars’ worst graphics and stage backdrop ever (at least according to donald trump, one of america’s leading experts on awards show graphics and stage backdrops). birdman topping boyhood was the academy’s “worst mistake in 20 years.” the show was accused of breaking “their connection with the movies that many millions of people buy tickets to watch.” in this context, david edelstein’s contention that this was “the best oscars show in years (but it was still terrible)” felt downright generous. the internet does an amazing impression of the simpsons’ comic book guy.
others focused on comments in and around the show they found offensive. sean penn made a green card joke about his friend (and 12 grams director) alejandro gonzález iñárritu when announcing birdman as the year’s best picture; that one line “may have ruined the entire oscars.” minutes earlier, patricia arquette won the best supporting actress award and gave an impassioned acceptance speech about wage equality (which “appalled” some viewers anyway) then made additional remarks backstage on the subject and was accused of “whitewash[ing] feminism.” there was so much outrage that new york magazine was able to round up just the hottest hot takes into an entire list of oscar freakouts.
the oscars, just like movies or television shows or video games or anything else in the world of popular culture, are worthy of serious consideration. when filmmakers take political stands, that’s worth talking about. when we disagree with their political stands, that discourse can be productive as well. but too many of these articles are instant reactions conceived and executed in minutes (or, on social media, even less). they’re not designed to promote discussion, they’re meant to stoke further outrage from those who agree — and to stoke hate-reads from those who disagree. there’s no time to be serious. there’s only time to be upset, and then to move on to the next target.
look, if you were genuinely offended by something at the academy awards, more power to you. but perhaps a little bit of perspective is in order. sean penn made a dumb joke when his friend won an oscar. patricia arquette, in the midst of perhaps the most exciting moment of her entire life, muddled her message (she later clarified her thoughts, at length, on twitter). oscar winners describe the time after they accept their award as a blur. (“i can’t remember it at all, i just remember it being a sort of frenzied blur,” is how eddie redmayne put it yesterday on british television.) patricia arquette’s heart was obviously in the right place; maybe we could cut the borderline delirious woman some slack on the fine points?
the internet is a fabulous tool for communication, but i suspect these disproportionately angry reactions will eventually begin to stifle discussion. patricia arquette tried to take a stand for a seemingly good cause, bungled her thoughts slightly, and got vilified. at a certain point, what is the benefit for speaking out about anything? eventually, every oscar speech is going to look like joe pesci’s; five words and a hasty exit.
the reality is this year’s oscars were pretty crummy. they were long and slow and they stopped the whole show to celebrate the sound of music but they couldn’t find room for harry belafonte to accept his humanitarian award in person. from my perspective, the wrong movie won in several categories. but you know what? the oscars are always crummy and the wrong movie almost always wins. it was the worst oscars ever when rob lowe and snow white had their infamous duet back in 1989. it was the worst oscars ever (“a shambles!”) when david letterman repeatedly introduced uma thurman to oprah winfrey. it was the worst oscars ever when james franco and anne hathaway hosted. it was the worst oscars ever when forrest gump won best picture instead of the shawshank redemption or pulp fiction. and that’s just one of a billion examples of films that went ignored by the academy.
no matter how upset anyone gets, the oscars will be back next year. no matter what happens, a fair number of people will argue they are the worst oscars ever; god himself could show up with a resurrected alfred hitchcock as his date, and people would still complain. (i can see the headlines now: “what god got wrong about bringing hollywood directors back from the dead.”) the academy awards could certainly do better, but they could also do worse. and the frenzy around the slip-ups is obscuring any conversation the lovely moments; the performance of “glory” by john legend and common, the acceptance speeches by julianne moore, graham moore and, yes, patricia arquette. the lego movie song was pretty good too. i’m not sure anyone was paying attention, though.

Portland homicide detective Nick Burkhardt's world turns upside down when he starts seeing people's faces morph into monsters. He discovers he isn't losing his mind when his Aunt Marie, who raised him, unexpectedly shows up. She tells him he comes from a long line of Grimms. A Grimm can see Wesen, a term for creatures from fairy tales and myths. As a Grimm, it's Nick's destiny to protect humans from dangerous Wesen. While it's unheard of for a Grimm to befriend Wesen, Nick forges a strong relationship with Monroe. Unlike most Blutbaden, or wolf-like creatures who eat humans, Monroe follows a vegan diet. After his aunt is murdered, Nick depends on Monroe and the journals left behind in Marie's trailer to learn about his heritage.

Suction Cleaners plug into your skimmer or dedicated vacuum line and are powered from the suction of your pool pump. The downside of these cleaners is that pool pump has to be running for this bad boy to work. You’ll also notice that the suction pool cleaner’s throat is relatively small compared to the other cleaners. Suction pool cleaners are designed more for dirt and small debris and not for large leaves, large debris. These cleaners are ideal for screened-in pools and pools where you don’t get a lot of leaves.
Pressure cleaners typically work off a booster pump; these are secondary pumps to your main pool pump, and its purpose is to provide the cleaner its propulsion and “suction.” Pressure cleaners work by pushing through this hose, and through these nozzles at the bottom of the cleaner. The nozzles push the water up away from the pool floor, creating a turbulence vacuum called a venture effect. Debris is pulled off the pool floor and gathered into the debris bag.
The pressure cleaner’s throat is noticeably wider which makes these cleaners great for pools that burdened with heavy debris that suction cleaners are too small to handle.
Manufacturers make models like this Poolvergneugen 4 Wheel Pressure Cleaner where you don’t need a booster pump. These pressure-side cleaners use your main pool pump, but you have to remove one of your return jets and plug the hose into the return jet.
This is a robotic pool cleaner, and it is different than the suction and pressure side cleaner because it does not use a pump at all. These are much more economical to run than any other style of pool cleaner because you don’t have to run your pool pump which draws a lot more amps than this does. This plug goes a normal wall receptacle, from the outlet it goes into a power supply which is a transformer, that drops the 120V down to 24V or 12V which makes it safe for the pool. The safe voltage level runs through a waterproof cable into the cleaner.
Robotic Pool Cleaners normally have a three to five-hour cleaning cycle, it’s a lot easier. A pool owner doesn’t don’t have to babysit this cleaner, you just drop it in the pool and go on about your business. Also, at the bottom of this, you can see the cleaning vents or the suction vents. They are pretty wide so that you should be able to get most big debris. Big debris, small debris, sycamore leaves.
These also close once the cleaners turn off, so leaves don’t back-flush back into your pool. Robotic cleaners have a bag or a cartridge element to filter the water of debris. Cartridge based cleaners are best for catching fine particles like sand. They’re very versatile, and I love them.
Tell me more about your Robotic pool cleaners. The one I have now is no longer doing a good job on my 20′ X 40′ pool. It cleans only one part of the pool and ignores the rest. How much does your robotic pool cleaner cost?
Hello, Douglas. We carry residential robotic pool cleaners that range from the inexpensive Aquabot Turbo T-Jet all the way up to the Hayward Aquavac Tigershark and each one has its pros and cons.
The main things you want to focus on, is what do you need your cleaner to do, and what is your price range? Some robotic pool cleaners clean both the floor and the wall, while some can only clean the floor. The floor cleaners are generally less expensive, but it means you will have to manually scrub your pool walls when necessary. My perosnal suggestion is to start with the brands of Aquabot and Dolphin/Maytronics, because they specialize in pool cleaning. The two companies put all their energy into making the best pool cleaners in the industry and they are pretty darn good at it.

HB 1386, the teen suicide prevention bill by Garnet Coleman (D-Houston) has passed the Texas Senate on a 28 to 3 vote. The bill instructs the Texas Department of State Health Services to develop resources designed to prevent teen suicide, including mental health counseling, crisis prevention tools and suicide prevention eduction. Schools would then have the option of implementing those programs, but would not be required to do so.
The Senate Education Committee made some substantial changes to the bill the House sent over, most notably adding provisions that prohibit a child from seeking counseling without their parent's knowledge. For queer teens who may not be out to their parents this is a particularly cruel change that may prevent some kids who need help from seeking it. Since the Senate version of the bill is different than the House version the House must concur with the changes. If they do not a "conference committee" of 5 House members (appointed by the Speaker of the House) and 5 Senators (appointed by the Lieutenant Governor) will be formed to to work out a comprimise between the two versions.
When he laid out the bill in the Senate Rodney Ellis (D-Houston), the bill's Senate sponsor, made what he called a "suicide pact" with the rest of the Senate to oppose any attempt by the conference committee to allow students to receive anonymous counseling. By tradition the Senate sponsor of House bills is one of the chairs of the conference committee so Ellis will be in a position to keep his pact.
Considering Ellis' commitment (however much his choice of words may be in poor taste) and the ticking clock of a session that has less than a week left in it Coleman may choose to simply concur with the changes the Senate made and send the bill to the Governor's desk for signing.

If there is none that you know of, anyone able to recommend any good Perl or PHP free guestbook scripts?
I just downloaded it, there are lots of files in there, run which one?
I'm using 34SP, does the install script do it properly here?
I have no idea if the install script works properly, but you will need to run it anyway, as it creates the tables and database, although doesn't always change the values in config.inc.php automatically, you might need to do it yourself.
Just run the install.php file.
The Perl Guestbook 1.5 in Proxy2.de seems to be much easier to setup and the features look suffice for me. Let me know if there is any pitfalls/bugs for this one.
I wouldn't know, never used it, only used the advanced php one.
I'm totally new to PHP and mySQL, could you recommend me a good basic PHP and mySQL webpage for me to read to get me quickly started before I have the necessary expertise to configure the Advanced Guestbook? Or you may like to give me some necessary pointers here to help me to quickly get this PHP script up and running. I'm hard pressed for time to get a Guestbook up and running.
As it is going to be a Guestbook I'm using in the long run, it would be good to get this advanced guestbook properly configured now. PHP and my SQL expertise I will pick up the skill later.
Have you read the instructions in the readme.txt file located in the 'doc' directory? as this tells you what steps to take.
What are the changes I need to make inside those headings?
and set up your database settings.
I'm a newbie to PHP and mySQL, so will definately need some guidance here on what settings to set. I have already done step 3.
I was wondering if I need to create a database with the name guestbook.sql first with the siteadmin tool at 34SP before I go to step 2?

As you might have expected, new U.S. President is launching an attack on states’ rights to regulate legal marijuana consumption and threatening to establish central control.
According to White House press secretary Sean Spicer, the federal administration doesn’t approve of the state-level legalisation of cannabis and plans to enforce the national ban. That would be a sudden U-turn in comparison with the previous government under Obama when states were mostly left alone to determine and observe their own laws regarding medical and recreational use of marijuana. In fact, such a measure would be an echo of George W. Bush, who routinely sent federal agencies to raid dispensaries in California and other states. While Spicer didn’t specify how far Donald Trump’s government is willing to go, he did hint at a higher level of involvement by national services such as the DEA.
Of course, it’s a well-known fact that federal regulations in the United States are in direct conflict with statewide laws voted in by citizens of numerous constituent legislations. Since most drug investigations are carried out locally by specialised agencies, there is little need for federal oversight except in cases that involve international or interstate smuggling. Sending federal agents to suppress small-time cannabis shops in states where they are operating legally and paying taxes seems like a waste of budget resources at best and serious infringement on states’ constitutional status at worst.
For what it’s worth, Trump has been on record saying that marijuana is evil, although he softened the rhetoric during the electoral campaign. He did hedge his position by expressing support for medical marijuana, recognising it has therapeutic value. The latest change of direction is probably an attempt to appeal to his conservative base, which is predominantly white and highly religious. However, nationwide support for legal marijuana has never been higher, so this could end up being a strategic mistake for Trump if he faces significant backlash from supporters, as is likely to happen.
Let’s remember that Bush never managed to stop the legalisation process or even slow it down, despite the occasional raids that were prominently featured in the media. In fact, pro-legalization movement steadily gained steam over the past two decades and it is difficult to see what exactly central government can do against it. However, Trump has already demonstrated that he is capable of controversial actions, so this is definitely a situation worth monitoring in the near future.
