would have needed more support under proposition 26. >> you politicians don't try to take it a real tax and call it a fee to get around the constitution. >> but californians don't need to look far to see how difficult it is to achieve a two-thirds vote. things like the state budget get delayed. >> proposition 26 is an absolute disaster. >> environmentalists worry the tough standards will mean it will be harder to impose fees on businesses to pay for the potential problems they cause such as air pollution or declines in water quality. >> the fees these major corporations are paying to are clean up their mess and that's why they've written this measure. they don't want to have to pay their fair share. >> the costs preventing negative effects with business dises the taxpayers. abc 7 news. >> the candidates for superintendent of public obstruction took part in debate by abc 7, the san jose mercury news and the silicon valley leadership group and you can watch it this sunday at 11 a.m.

water. now there's a study about how fast different animals shake their bodies to shed water. here's abc's jeremy hubbard. ♪ >> you probably never pondered the physics of that bath-time annoyance: the shaking wet dog. but david goo has. >> this is my wife's ex-boyfriend's gift to her. >> after bathing jerry the poodle, he wondered how fast his dog and other mammals for that matter have to shake to get dry. how hard do they work? with a team of researchers with a slow motion camera, he found out. >> this wasn't exactly easy to do. the scientists had to get up close and personal with soaking wet animals and endure a drenches. >> after studying everything from mice to rats to dogs and even bears, they discovered something interesting. size matters. small animals have to shake their tails off in order to get

dry. a mouse, he rotates his body faster than the eye can see, nearly 30 times a second trying to repel water. an average-sized dog on the other hand, he'd have to shake just five times per second to get just as dry. why exactly to animals shake in the first place? because water particles cling to their fur. to get rid of the water, they have to start gyrating. >> this is the same principle that a washing machine works. imagine you're a drop on one of these clothes. there's a centrifugal force that tends to pull you out. these dogs work on the same principle. they have to choose a speed that's high enough to get rid of the drops. >> what is the point? researchers say they hope their discoveries make people appreciate how animals have learned to adapt. >> i hope at least as a team we can come up with some really neat design for either a washing machine or something else we haven't thought of. >> progress from the science of a soaked pooch. >> and i'd like to know how much

funding this study got and who funded it? >> i don't know. a lot of shaking going on out there tonight with the rain coming down. >> yes. >> and this is a pretty neat shot from our mount tamalpais camera. wind speeds on top, 26 mph. temperature now 50. you can see the rain is coming down in sheets there. live doppler 7 hd confirming that. you can see this wave of moisture just continue to move inland. we'll take you up a little towards the north and you can see santa rosa, sonoma all the way towards san rafael. there's mill valley, mount tam seeing the rain there, san francisco. in the east bay though we've been seeing moderate rain out towards oakley as well as the brentwood area. you can cease sausalito heading over the bay, heading towards oakland and san leandro. and there's that oakley and brentwood shot, a live sweep as you see that moisture continue to feed from west to east. that is the movement in san jose right now picking up some moisture, too. all of this will continue to sweep inland overnight tonight.
