Oregon charges anti-tax activist Sizemore, wife with tax evasion! Oregon officials have charged tax foe Bill Sizemore and his wife with tax evasion for their failure to file state tax returns the past three years, the first time Sizemore has faced criminal indictment in more than 15 years of political activism. http://www.oregonlive.com/politics/index.ssf/2009/11/sizemore_wife_ch... (This is what state government does to a guy who took a couple of petitions to the people, who then voted in property tax limitations, forcing government to scale back their budgets, downsize, slice off government jobs, including teachers, but everyone's taxes were lower! In the process, the teacher's union has become his sworn enemy and has done everything it could to destroy him!  If they can't get you for anything else, they'll get you on a tax charge.  Hell, I haven't filed any returns in a couple of years now either.  There's no law against it if you can prove you didn't owe any taxes.  In fact the government likes people who don't file when they have refunds coming!) GE returns to roots as it looks to spin off NBC! WASHINGTON - For General Electric Co., the NBC entertainment division was always an odd fit. New shelter opens tonight in Hillsboro for homeless families, individuals! Shelter at Orenco Station has room for 25 people on a first-come, first-served basis, including families and single men or women. (Whoopee!  25 people!  That's all?) AOL falls short of S&P 500 listing! The freshly minted AOL will be added to the S&P MidCap 400 Index when it is spun off from Time Warner next month, falling short of requirements to be listed on the more broadly followed S&P 500 Index. Credit-card delinquencies near record high! BOSTON (MarketWatch)
