The document analyzes the prospects for passage of a proposed penny sales tax increase in Georgia to fund transportation projects. It finds that while transportation taxes often pass nationally, Georgia voters recently rejected a smaller car tag tax increase. Support and opposition are emerging along partisan lines. Passage will depend on promoting tangible community benefits versus historical conservative opposition to new taxes in Georgia. The tax could raise $19.3 billion over 10 years but benefits would vary significantly by region.
This document provides guidance on handling major media storms during crises. It discusses factors that build trust with the public such as competence, honesty, listening skills, and empathy. It also highlights signs that a crisis may become high profile such as involving sensitive topics or tying to current events. The document uses examples like the Columbine shooting, Matthew Shepard murder, and JonBenet Ramsey case to illustrate how crises can greatly expand media and public attention. It also discusses how new internet technologies have changed how people consume crisis information online through user-generated content on sites like YouTube, Twitter, and blogs.

The document discusses the plight of tigers in India and efforts to save them. It notes that according to a recent census, only 1411 tigers remain in India, far below previous estimates. The main threats tigers face are poaching, habitat loss due to deforestation and human expansion. Conservation efforts like Project Tiger were launched in the 1970s to protect tigers, but more work is still needed to save the species from extinction. The document emphasizes the urgent need for strong enforcement of anti-poaching laws, focusing conservation in key habitats, and gaining national commitment to prevent further shrinkage of tiger territories.
The document summarizes gas exchange in animals, focusing on mammals and fish. It describes how gas exchange provides oxygen and removes carbon dioxide. In mammals, gas exchange occurs in lungs through a branching network of tubes ending in alveoli, allowing diffusion of gases between air and blood. In fish, gas exchange occurs through gills, which have a large surface area and countercurrent blood flow to enhance gas diffusion between water and blood.
