The Shard guide
However impressive it is from the outside, there's nothing like the view from the inside. Get the most out of your visit with our guide to a trip up The Shard

London's tallest building has not been universally well received. For every fan of architect Renzo Piano's crystalline, church steeple-inspired skyscraper – rescued from the jaws of recession by Qatari investors in 2008 and topped off just four years later – there's at least one detractor, angry the 1,016-foot-tall hulk was ever allowed to bully its way into sightline omnipresence. But if views of The Shard are controversial, the views from it are not. At 800 feet, the building's ticketed viewing platform The View from The Shard is nearly double the height of its closest competitor, the EDF Energy London Eye. From that high up London is Lego, the Thames a blue shoelace. Even the peaks of the City, immediately north, appear suddenly quaint. Here's Time Out's guide to a trip up The Shard.
The View from The Shard opening times and ticketing information
Unless you're there to eat or drink (more on that later), chances are your trip up western Europe's tallest building is for The View from The Shard, a ticketed viewing platform with 360-degree views across the capital and beyond (up to 40 miles on a clear day). The attraction spans three levels of decks (the bottom two enclosed, the third open to the elements above) on floors 68 to 72 of the skyscraper, reached by two super-smooth, high-speed lifts taking just 30 seconds each. Up top, Digital 'Tell:scopes' update the coin-in-the-slot binoculars at traditional viewpoints: touchscreens locate and provide information about important landmarks, zoom in, and toggle between views from different times of day.
The View from The Shard is open daily from 9am to 10pm. Winter hours, starting in October, are Sunday to Wednesday, 10am to 7pm; and Thursday to Saturday, 10am-10pm. Last viewings start one hour before closing. Tickets are timed and available through Time Out, costing £29.95 for adults and £23.95 for children (ages 4 to 15).
Where is The Shard?
Up. More specifically, The Shard is in Southwark, just two minutes from London Bridge station (accessible by both rail and tube, the latter on the Northern and Jubilee lines) and five minutes from the Thames' South Bank. If you've got 10 minutes to spare, alight at Monument tube station (on the Circle and District lines) and behold The Shard's towering majesty as you cross London Bridge. The site can also be reach by more than a dozen buses: the 17, 21, 35, 40, 43, 47, 48, 141, 149, 343, 381, 521 and RV1.
Eating and drinking at The Shard
Restaurateurs have flocked to The Shard almost as enthusiastically as the camera-toting masses. In ascending order, you'll find:
Aqua Shard

'The appeal of drinking while on high is eternal and even a bit inexplicable, but there's no denying it,' said our reviewer. 'Aqua Shard is not the sort of place you'll want to visit every week. But to remind yourself how glorious our city can look while getting pissed, go vertical.'
- The Shard, Level 31, 31 St Thomas St, SE1 9RY
- Rated as: 3/5
- Price band: 4/4
'A starter of tataki-style beef (£12) was a few tasty morsels while the main course of halibut (£28) was perfectly cooked, though rather oddly served with something resembling a dollop of lemon curd. Pork belly (£16) was perhaps the best dish – the meat pink and tender, the skin nicely crisped, served with a piquant apple chutney. Desserts consisted mainly of ice-cream combinations, though New York cheesecake (£9) was exemplary.'
- Level 32, The Shard, 31 St Thomas Street, SE1 9SY
- Rated as: 4/5
'Hutong does credit to the growing trend for offbeat Chinese dishes. The service was good, the prices high, but then this is The Shard, not Chinatown.'

Really there was only one thing everyone was talking about today and that was Valentino. Paris saved the best for last. PierPaolo Piccioli and Maria Grazia Chiuri, who took over at the 53 year old fashion house, have steered the brand into couture poll position in an increasingly competitive market. Everyone is trying to identify and snap up the moneyed young customer. If she has any sense at all she will be fanning out her credit cards and heading straight to their showroom in Place Vendome.
For decades, Valentino Garavani was the go-to guy for the world's socialites. He dressed Jackie Onassis for her wedding. He dressed Elizabeth Taylor for the Oscars and Cannes. He dressed Julia Roberts in 'vintage' and started a trend that is still going strong. He was beloved by crowned heads and celebrities alike. With the designer still living, it has been a tough challenge taking over but Pier Paolo and Maria Grazia who worked with Val on accessories, have nailed it.
Delicate water silks were woven with chintzy patterns in such a way that they looked as soft as an impressionist painting. Chiffon dresses that looked breezily light were printed with meadow flowers. Frilled collars of tulle and lace peaked out above collarless jackets worn over A line skirts. Materials that could so easily have been mumsy (think of how badly wrong those florals, taffetas and lace could have gone) looked refreshingly young and unexpectedly modern.
There was a quiet elegance about this collection that was like a glass of mint tea after a week of tequila slammers. And the most skillful trick was that while the designers made the collection entirely their own, it was full of respect for the founding father: Valentino's signature white suits, frilled trims, lace dresses, A line silhouettes and meadow florals were all there, reminiscent of a rich past but representative of a reserve of talent and sensitivity of touch that promises brilliant things for the future.
Now where on earth did I leave that winning lottery ticket.

True faith originates in our core being. We are not saved by mental awareness, warm emotions, or even intellectual assent. Rather, it's "with the heart one believes unto righteousness" (Romans 10:10, NKJV). Faith deeply believes God will do what He says. Faith produces words of agreement and actions of obedience. The corresponding words and actions are simply evidence that our heart has laid hold of what God has spoken. read more

Only the Stormers and Chiefs are guaranteed four points in Round 11, with the former on a bye week and the latter up against the Lions.
Harsh? Perhaps. But on current form, it's hard to bet against the table-topping Chiefs crumbling to the last-placed Lions.
The other fixtures on Super Saturday are a lot tougher to call though.
The Waratahs take on the Brumbies in a must-win Aussie derby in Canberra, the Highlanders then go fishing for Sharks in Durban before the Cheetahs and Force battle it out for a much-needed win in Bloemfontein.
Chiefs v Lions
Pukekohe, Auckland
Super Rugby heads to the south of Auckland in Pukekohe for the first time in 12 years when the Chiefs take on the Lions.
The tournament leaders are coming off an eighth consecutive win (the best winning streak of 2012) and should have too much firepower for the competition strugglers, who are out to avoid eight straight defeats.
Indeed, the Chiefs are expected to bag maximum points against the lowly Lions following the South African side's drubbing to the Brumbies in Jo'burg where they conceded six tries.
Saturday's task will not be any easier for John Mitchell's pride in the first hit-out of their four-match tour against the high-flying Chiefs, who did their title credentials no harm with an impressive win over the Hurricanes a week ago.
The Chiefs shrugged off jet lag after a long-haul flight back from South Africa to outplay the 'Canes and stay on top of the Super Rugby ladder where they are destined to stay after Round 11.
It seems the men from Waikato can do no wrong with their defence remaining rock-solid as Dave Rennie's men continue to concede on average of just one try a game, while they are no strangers to the try-line (just ask prop Sona Taumalolo, who pre-round is level with Hurricanes full-back Andre Taylor as the competition's top try-scorer with seven!).
Complacency appears to be the only factor standing in their way as the Chiefs machine rolls on into the crucial second half of the season. But lets be honest, an upset defeat at the hands of the Lions won't happen and the big question is not if the home side will win, but by how much.
Maximum points will be ideal before the Kiwi outfit's clash against the defending champion Reds next Sunday in Brisbane - which will no doubt prove to be more of challenge before taking their well earned second bye.
Prediction: If you're playing in fantasy leagues, now is the time to go crazy with Chiefs if you haven't already. Chiefs by 20!
The teams:
Chiefs: 15 Andrew Horrell, 14 Lelia Masaga, 13 Richard Kahui, 12 Sonny Bill Williams, 11 Asaeli Tikoirotuma, 10 Aaron Cruden, 9 Brendon Leonard, 8 Kane Thompson, 7 Sam Cane, 6 Tanerau Latimer, 5 Michael Fitzgerald, 4 Craig Clarke (c), 3 Ben Tameifuna, 2 Hika Elliot, 1 Toby Smith.
Replacements: 16 Mahonri Schwalger, 17 Arizona Taumalolo, 18 Alex Bradley, 19 Scott Waldrom, 20 Tawera Kerr- Barlow, 21 Jackson Willison, 22 Maritino Nemani.
Lions: 15 Andries Coetzee, 14 Deon Van Rensburg, 13 Jaco Taute, 12 Alwyn Hollenbach, 11 Lionel Mapoe, 10 Elton Jantjies, 9 Ross Cronje, 8 Joshua Strauss (c), 7 Grant Hattingh, 6 Derick Minnie, 5 Ruan Botha, 4 Franco Van der Merwe, 3 Patric Cilliers, 2 Callie Visagie, 1 Caylib Oosthuizen/JC Janse van Rensburg.
Replacements: 16 Martin Bezuidenhout, 17 CJ Van der Linde, 18 Cobus Grobbelaar, 19 Jaco Kriel, 20 Tian Meyer, 21 James Kamana, 22 Michael Killian.
Referee: Ian Smith (Australia)
Brumbies v Waratahs
Aussie derbies rarely get the pulses racing, but there's a few reasons for Super Rugby fans to sit up and take notice of Saturday's clash between the Brumbies and Waratahs in Canberra.
It looms as a crunch match for both sides. The Brumbies will be looking to cement their place on top of the Aussie conference ladder, while the Waratahs need a bonus-point win to stay in touch after their narrow loss to the Crusaders last week.
Whilst it hasn't been a stellar year for Australian sides thus far, the Brumbies - Australia's surprise leaders - continue to prove the critics wrong and sit in the top six on the overall standings with 31 points with the Waratahs in eighth (26).
Jake White's men aren't lacking in confidence either after coming back from a tough fortnight in South Africa with a hard-earned seven points in clashes with the Bulls and the Lions - making it their best performance in the Republic since 2002.
It made a statement about the Brumbies' potential to make the play-offs this year after a seven-year drought - and a win over the Waratahs would only emphasise the call.
But while the Brumbies may be the Australian flag bearers it is three years since they have beaten the Waratahs in what is one of the competition's great rivalries.
However, teams have found it tough to beat the Brumbies in the capital this season and home advantage has proved to work in the men from the Canberra's favour who are four from five at home in 2012.
"This is the biggest game of a lot of these young guys' careers, which is great. These are games you want to play in and play well in," said hooker Stephen Moore.
Prediction: This won't be pretty, but with everything to play for expect both sides to throw everything but the kitchen sink at one another. History favours the Waratahs, who've won the past three and seven of the last nine against the Brumbies. Still, this ain't any ordinary Brumbies team. Tough one... Brumbies by three!
The teams:
Brumbies: 15 Jesse Mogg, 14 Henry Speight, 13 Andrew Smith, 12 Pat McCabe, 11 Joe Tomane, 10 Christian Lealiifano, 9 Nic White, 8 Fotu Auelua, 7 Michael Hooper, 6 Ben Mowen (c), 5 Sam Carter, 4 Scott Fardy, 3 Dan Palmer, 2 Stephen Moore, 1 Ben Alexander.
Replacements: 16 Anthony Hegarty, 17 Ruaidhri Murphy, 18 Peter Kimlin, 19 Ita Vaea, 20 Ian Prior, 21 Robbie Coleman, 22 Tevita Kuridrani.
Waratahs: 15 Adam Ashley-Cooper, 14 Atieli Pakalani, 13 Tom Kingston, 12 Tom Carter, 11 Peter Betham, 10 Berrick Barnes, 9 Brendan McKibbin, 8 Wycliff Palu, 7 Jono Jenkins, 6 Dave Dennis, 5 Kane Douglas, 4 Sitaleki Timani, 3 Sekope Kepu, 2 Tatafu Polota-Nau, 1 Benn Robinson (c).
Replacements: 16 John Ulugia, 17 Jeremy Tilse, 18 Dean Mumm, 19 Lopeti Timani, 20 Rocky Elsom, 21 Sarel Pretorius, 22 Daniel Halangahu.
Sharks v Highlanders
Kings Park Stadium, Durban
The Sharks will try to hand the Highlanders only their third defeat of the season and elevate themselves back into a play-off position.
The home side have had a topsy turvy season and coach John Plumtree will be determined to get one over his countrymen from Dunedin.
The Sharks are fresh after last weekend's bye and keen to return to the victory trail. They were competitive in their last match against the table-topping Chiefs, and it's not often that they drop two games in a row in Durban.
"We want to play well every week and improve every week," said Plumtree.
"It's not just about relying on winning at home. We have a job to do - home and away - if we want to be where we aim for.
"Playing a quarter-final in New Zealand is no fun. We have to set our sights higher than that. Making the play-offs in this competition is a good effort because it's such a tough competition, but we want to talk about going further than that."
The Highlanders have become a formidable unit under the guidance of coach Jamie Joseph despite being without several key players through injury for most of their campaign.Although most of their crocked players are back in action, they are still without the services of first-choice fly-halves Colin Slade and Lima Sopoaga although Mike Delany and Chris Noakes have come to the fore with impressive performances in recent weeks.
Delany notched 20 points in the Highlanders' win over the Blues in Round Nine and Noakes played a leading role in their remarkable comeback against the Cheetahs last week.
They've had another week to settle into South Africa and if they get off to a good start this week they'll be hard to beat.
Prediction The Sharks are desperate for that spot in the play-offs so expect them to come out all guns blazing. The Highlanders, showed against the Cheetahs, however, that they don't give up easily. Expect a humdinger but we think the hosts will just edge it.... Sharks by five!
The teams:
Sharks: 15 Louis Ludik, 14 JP Pietersen, 13 Paul Jordaan, 12 Tim Whitehead, 11 Lwazi Mvovo, 10 Patrick Lambie, 9 Charl McLeod, 8 Keegan Daniel (c), 7 Marcell Coetzee, 6 Jacques Botes, 5 Anton Bresler, 4 Steven Sykes, 3 Jannie du Plessis/Wiehahn Herbst, 2 Bismarck du Plessis, 1 Tendai Mtawarira.
Replacements: 16 Craig Burden, 17 Jannie du Plessis/Wiehahn Herbst, 18 Pieter-Steph du Toit, 19 Jean Deysel, 20 Ryan Kankowski, 21 Frederic Michalak, 22 Meyer Bosman.
Highlanders 15 Ben Smith, 14 Siale Piutau, 13 Tamati Ellison, 12 Shaun Treeby, 11 Hosea Gear, 10 Mike Delany, 9 Aaron Smith, 8 Nasi Manu, 7 Doug Tietjens, 6 Adam Thomson, 5 Jarrad Hoeata, 4 Josh Bekhuis, 3 Chris King, 2 Andrew Hore, 1 Jamie Mackintosh (c).
Replacements: 16 Jason Rutledge, 17 Maafu Fia/Jacob Ellison, 18 Culum Retallick, 19 Elliot Dixon, 20 Jimmy Cowan, 21 Chris Noakes, 22 Kurt Baker.
Referee: Steve Walsh (Australia)
Cheetahs v Western Force
Free State Stadium, Bloemfontein
Both these sides have struggling in recent weeks and head into this match winless after several rounds of action.
The Cheetahs' last win came in Round Seven when they beat the Lions while the Force haven't been on the winning side since their 45-19 triumph over the Reds in Round Six.
Despite being lower than the Force on the table, Cheetahs coach Naka Drotske will not be underestimating the men from Perth.
"By this time we all know there is no such thing as a good or a bad side," he said.
"The Force showed last weekend against the Stormers that they have a good defensive pattern and that they can attack. They are a very physical team and if we want to win, we'll have to be 100% switched on."
The Cheetahs were dealt a blow when first-choice fly-half Johan Goosen suffered a shoulder injury in last weekend's loss to the Highlanders, which has ruled him out for the rest of the tournament.
His replacement in that match, Sias Ebersohn, had what is probably the worst moment by an individual player in this year's competition when he missed what could have been the match-winning penalty from bang in front of the posts.
Ebersohn will wear the number 10 jersey in this weekend's clash and it will be interesting to see if he has put that incident to bed as prepares for the challenge of facing the Force.
The Australian franchise have been struggling for consistency this season and have been in the news for events away from the playing field in recent weeks.
Former Force coach Richard Graham dropped a bombshell on the Western Australia franchise two weeks ago when he announced that he will be leaving Perth at the end of the season to join the Reds. But he was then summarily fired reportedly on the recommendation of senior Force players.
And this past week it was initially revealed that Wallaby scrum-half Will Genia has signed to join the Force in 2012, only for the diminutive number nine to to do a U-turn and sign a new deal with the Reds.
Despite that, the Force possess seasoned campaigners like veteran lock Nathan Sharp and fellow Wallabies David Pocock and Matt Hodgson who are expected to take the fight to the Cheetahs this weekend.
Prediction: The Cheetahs will be reeling after last week's loss, but playing at home should give them the edge if Sias Ebersohn can land his kicks. Cheetahs by seven.
The teams:
Cheetahs: 15 Hennie Daniller, 14 Cameron Jacobs, 13 Robert Ebersohn, 12 Andries Strauss, 11 Willie le Roux, 10 Sias Ebersohn, 9 Tewis de Bruyn, 8 Philip van der Walt, 7 Justin Downey, 6 Heinrich Brussow, 5 Izak van der Westhuizen, 4 George Earle, 3 WP Nel, 2 Adriaan Strauss (captain), 1 Coenie Oosthuizen.
Replacements: 16 Hercu Liebenberg, 17 Trevor Nyakane, 18 Andries Ferreira, 19 Ashley Johnson, 20 Piet van Zyl, 21 Riaan Smit, 22 Philip Snyman.
Western Force: 15 Alfie Mafi, 14 Samu Wara, 13 Nick Cummins, 12 Winston Stanley, 11 Napolioni Nalaga, 10 David Harvey, 9 Brett Sheehan, 8 Matt Hodgson, 7 David Pocock (c), 6 Richard Brown, 5 Nathan Sharpe, 4 Toby Lynn, 3 Salesi Ma'afu, 2 Nathan Charles, 1 Pek Cowan.
Replacements: 16 Elvis Taione, 17 Salesi Manu, 18 Phoenix Battye, 19 Lachlan McCaffrey, 20 Josh Holmes, 21 Ben Seymour, 22 Rory Sidey.

The great grandson of 1956 NASCAR Sportsman Champion Ralph Earnhardt, grandson of 7 time Sprint Cup Champion Dale Earnhardt, nephew of this generations Most Popular Driver Dale Earnhardt Jr. and now Jeffrey intends to make his mark as a fourth generation racer from this legendary family.
Jeffrey began his career racing a silver #33 Yugo 4 cylinder on the dirt tracks of Wythe Raceway in Rural Retreat, Virginia. With 3 feature wins and a Rookie of the Year at the local track, he had the taste and decided to pursue his dreams. General Motors challenged the youngest Earnhardt during their developmental driver program and he made the final cut. Competing in NASCAR's Camping World East, Camping World Truck Series, Rolex Series and Nationwide Series, Jeffrey enjoyed several top 5 finishes and on the 10th year anniversary of his grandfathers untimely death had a top 10 finish at Daytona.
Today Jeffrey is racing with JD Motorsports in the NASCAR Nationwide Series. With his first full NNS season underway, Jeffrey is focused on gaining experience and growing with a team on the move. JD Motorsports is owned by Johnny Davis and Gary Keller and their commitment to build their program and support Jeffrey's career has been everything the 4th generation Earnhardt could desire. The ultimate goal is to bring the #4 Chevrolet Camaro to victory lane and deliver future championships to Earnhardt Nation!

Legalities of Establishing a Society
|(One intermediate revision by one user not shown)
|Line 1:
|Line 1:
Latest revision as of 07:37, 30 August 2013
[edit] Introduction
You can establish a society! The legalities are not difficult. A society may start with just one person who wants to meet others to share ideas and work together. Or, it can evolve because several individuals find they share common interests.
[edit] Preliminary Strategies
You will find two references essential during the formative stages: Robert's Rules of Order, Newly Revised and the Federation's Management Handbook: A Guide for the Organization and Management of Genealogical Societies (revised in 2000 by FGS).
Robert's Rules will guide you through the method you decide is best. The Management Handbook will suggest details which will need to be accomplished in the preliminary meetings to organize a society. The first publication is available at any bookstore in your local area or may be purchased, along with the second, from the address at the end of this strategy paper.
There are two ways – equally appropriate – to establish a society. Knowing the kinds of people in your area, and how they will best respond to the methods of establishing a new society, should help to determine which method of formation is best for you.
The first method of organization involves many people as soon as possible. The second method does not "go public" with the organization until a number of elements are already in place.
If one chooses the first method, a small group lays the groundwork, develops tentative bylaws, recommends the name and amount of dues, and then involves the prospective members in the process of actual organization, through group decision-making by majority vote.
The second method allows a small group to determine the name, decide the purpose and amount of dues, prepare and adopt bylaws, file Articles of Incorporation with the state, arrange a meeting place, and then go public by announcing formation of the society.
An advantage to the first method is that it provides prospective members a sense of belonging and participation. They have a role in the decision-making process through discussion and voting. They know the objectives, bylaws, and principles upon which the new society was founded. This method may take longer to accomplish because it requires more involvement.
The second method allows a few individuals to complete a large number of details in an expedient manner. Many people have neither the ability nor desire to be involved in organizational details. Choosing this method leaves the technicalities of establishing a society to a few interested parties. Before joining a society established by the second method, however, prospective members usually want to examine existing bylaws for restrictive rules and regulations.
[edit] Rules and Regulations
Where there is no law, but every man does what is right in his own eyes, there is the least of real liberty. General Henry M. Robert
A society needs bylaws to establish its basic structure and govern the normal operation of the group. But problems are encountered when written rules are too rigid to allow modification as growth takes place or as goals and management change. Your society is free to adopt any rules it desires provided the rules conform to the adopted parliamentary law authority (such as Robert's Rules) and do not conflict with the rules of a higher order, such as national, state and local laws, or the rules of a parent body. Rules should establish your society's purpose, decide the manner in which it will operate, and provide the means of expediting business using parliamentary procedure.
The main types of written rules applicable to forming and managing a society include:
- Articles of Incorporation
- Bylaws
- Rules of Order
- Standing Rules
The first two rules are actually documents, each serving a specific function. The last two rules define the details of the society and should be adopted separately from the bylaws.
[edit] Articles of Incorporation
The document entitled "Articles of Incorporation" is a legal instrument which sets forth the name and objectives of your society and other information required for incorporation under the laws of a particular state. The Articles supersede all other rules of a society and generally contain only the information necessary to obtain the instrument from the state and establish the desired status of your society under law. Keep the Articles of Incorporation simple; leave as much as possible to the bylaws.
[edit] Bylaws
Bylaws are the operational blueprint of your society. They describe the relationship between the members and the working groups within the society. Bylaws contain basic rules relating to the society, but not the parliamentary procedures to be followed. The essential articles in bylaws of any society should appear exactly in the following order:
- Name of the Society
- Objectives or Purposes
- Membership Categories and Dues
- Meetings (how often, how called, etc.)
- Officers and Directors
- Executive (or Governing) Board
- Duties of Officers and Directors
- Committees
- Nominations and Elections
- Dissolution
- Parliamentary Authority
- Procedure for Amendments
[edit] Rules Of Order
Rules of order are the written rules of parliamentary procedure adopted as part of the bylaws. They refer to the orderly transaction of business in meetings and to the duties of officers.
Most societies specify an authority, such as Roberts Rules of Order, in their bylaws. They then adopt only rules of order as needed to supplement the authority such as the order of business, length and number of speeches allowed in debate, and duties of officers.
[edit] Standing Rules
Standing rules are an expansion of the bylaws. They are designed to take care of the business of the society in a practical manner and are not usually adopted at the time a society is established but individually as the need arises.
These rules can be easily modified. They require a majority vote but no previous notice. They may be adopted or changed at any business meeting. Examples include: Time of meeting, day of meeting if month is provided in the bylaws, or a statement that an officer may hold only one position at a time.
[edit] Incorporation
A society of individuals incorporated under the authority of state law is considered a corporation.
There is one major advantage of incorporation. Lawsuits can be filed only against the assets of the society, not against the property of those who manage or belong to it.
One disadvantage is that a society may be so small or its activities so limited that there is no need for formal incorporation.
The incorporation procedure will consider such things as a proper name, the purposes, and necessary legal assistance. Incorporation is regulated by state law and differs in each. Write to the proper state authority, requesting all information and sample Articles of Incorporation.
Thoroughly investigate and acquire all necessary papers. The Articles of Incorporation may be filed by mail or in person with the proper state office. The papers must be notarized and must be accompanied by a filing fee.
[edit] Taxes
A nonprofit tax-exempt corporation is organized for nonprofit activity, with purposes that qualify it for exemption from payment of federal corporate income taxes. Obtain, and read thoroughly, U.S. Internal Revenue Service Publication 557, Tax Exempt Status for your Organization. This publication can be obtained at no cost from the address of the regional IRS office that serves your state or by visiting the IRS web site at www.irs.gov.
There are many advantages of a nonprofit corporation. An application can be filed with the Internal Revenue Service for tax-exempt status. Your society will then be able to avoid income taxation of any profits so long as such profits are devoted to an exempt purpose. Your society may also become eligible for reduced postage rates.
Some disadvantages of a nonprofit corporation include: restriction to influence legislation or public opinion, may not distribute earnings to members, and, in the event of dissolution, all society assets must be given to a like nonprofit corporation. Your society will also be required to file IRS Form 990 or some variation.
Your society may also be exempt from certain state taxes but the law varies from state to state. Check with the proper tax authority regarding application for exemption.
[edit] Other Taxes
Even though your society may become a tax-exempt organization it must still pay othertaxes. Investigate the requirements for taxes at all levels of government. Each level of government operates differently in collecting taxes. It is important that your society learn what taxes it is responsible for and pay them promptly. Always keep current with tax rulings and laws at all levels of government.
Organizing, establishing rules and regulations, and other considerations of incorporation and taxes are essential components to establishing a society. These legalities are easily surmounted and the rewards are great. Be a Founding President or Founding Officer. You'll be so glad you did!

What's New in dotTrace 5 Performance
dotTrace 5.5 Performance introduces Subsystems, Bookmarks and new Overview page, integrates with Visual Studio up to version 2013 and ReSharper up to version 8.2, supports .NET Framework 4.5 and Windows 8, enables attaching to and detaching from running processes and supports Windows Store applications profiling.
Read more below or watch this screencast to learn what's new.
dotTrace Performance 5.5 comes with a new way to analyze snapshots in terms of Subsystems. Discover your code bottlenecks faster without digging deep into callstacks. With Subsystems view you get a quick overview of where a possible bottleneck may originate.
Visual Studio 2013 integration
dotTrace 5.5 Performance adds integration with Visual Studio 2013. You can launch profiling sessions from within Visual Studio 2013 and navigate from a snapshot to the corresponding source code in the latest version of the Microsoft IDE. Visual Studio 2005, 2008, 2010 and 2012 are still supported, too.
Improved remote profiling
You have been able to profile .NET applications on remote machines for a while using dotTrace Performance. With version 5, remote profiling experience is substantially improved.
To start off, HTTP is now used for remote profiling instead of a custom protocol, which allows profiling over VPNs and simplifies configuring firewall rules. Also, both IPv4 and IPv6 are now supported for remote profiling.
We have also removed passphrase exchange between dotTrace and its remote agent, making remote profiling easier in restricted environments. In addition, dotTrace profiling agent can now be run either as a regular application or an ASP.NET Web Service.
Last but not least, you can finally attach to running remote processes, which is crucial in discovering bottlenecks in mission-critical production .NET applications.
Support for IIS Express
As IIS Express was gaining popularity among web developers, we've been receiving requests to enable profiling web applications running under this server, and here we go: dotTrace 5 Performance introduces official support for IIS Express that complements existing support for the full-fledged IIS and ASP.NET Development Server.
Refined stack walking mechanism
Our improved stack walking algorithm allows you to see detailed call stacks of profiled applications in more scenarios than before. Instead of the ambiguous [Native or optimized code] label, you're now able to see an expanded list of your application or CLR functions that were called during execution under profiling where it's possible.
Improvements in Plain List View
We've put a lot of effort to make Plain List a better place to examine application behavior. You can now choose to show or hide system functions from the Plain List View, and group functions by assembly in addition to class and namespace groupings.
As a bonus, Plain List is now constructed a lot faster with large snapshots, displaying up to 20x performance improvement in certain scenarios.
.NET 4.5 and Windows 8 Support
Starting from version 5.2 dotTrace Performance provides support for .NET 4.5 applications and Windows 8. It is possible to profile .NET 4.5 applications using dotTrace Performance standalone.
Refined Overview page
With dotTrace 5.5 Performance comes new refined overview tab. You can now see all the significant information about your application performance and session parameters at one screen.
Profiling Windows Store applications
With version 5.3 comes support for profiling Windows Store applications including Windows Store test projects.
New filters in Hot Spots view
You can filter out system functions or event-waiting trees in the Hot Spots view to concentrate on the functions you need to investigate in a more comfortable way.
Attaching to running processes
Arguably the greatest new feature in dotTrace 5 Performance is the ability to attach the profiler to an existing .NET Framework 4.0+ process and run sampling performance analysis on it.
Oftentimes, an application that you want to optimize takes long hours or even days before it starts to display any performance issues. Previously, you would have to run it under profiling from the very start, which added another layer of performance overhead. Now, this is no longer required: with the ability to attach to a running process, you only involve the profiler when you really need it.
Integration with ReSharper 8.2
With dotTrace Performance, you can easily start profiling unit tests from Visual Studio code editor, Solution Explorer or ReSharper's unit test runner. Starting from version 5.5, dotTrace Performance supports ReSharper 8.2. Needless to say, it integrates with previous ReSharper versions as well.
Integrated decompiler
Following ReSharper and dotPeek, JetBrains .NET assembly decompiling technology has arrived in dotTrace. While profiling an application, if you need to dig further into the code but you don't have source code or symbol information at hand, dotTrace 5 Performance will decompile it for you and present decompiled code in its source preview area for quick review.
Easier estimation of performance gains
The Adjust Time functionality that is used to estimate how optimizing a certain function affects timings of the entire snapshot has been improved as well.
Specifically, you can now clear all time adjustments on all functions visible in the current view in one step — previously you would have to navigate between adjusted functions and set them back to their actual timings one by one. We have also enabled management of time adjustments in the Overview view.
Enhancements and additions for supported frameworks
dotTrace 5 Performance ensures seamless profiling of applications that contain code targeting different CLR versions. For example, if you have a .NET Framework 4.0 application that is dependent on external libraries targeting CLR 2, this application can now be perfectly profiled.
dotTrace 5.5 Performance is a free upgrade from dotTrace 4.x Performance purchased on or after February 23, 2012.
dotTrace 4.5 Performance

In the lists overview window, ' x tasks due tomorrow' is translated as 'morgen te voldoen'. I think that is incorrect, at least inconsistent, since elsewhere ´voltooien´ is used. If voltooien doesn´t fit, I suggest ´x taken voor morgen´.
In the same window, over due is translated: over tijd. In the start screen, the more approriate term 'te laat' is used.
And something else: in the time estimates, I need to type 'uur' fe '2 uur', it will not recognise the shorter '2 u', which I think is a broadly used abbrevation .

I am trying to use some old Minolta Rokkor lenses on my new Nikon d3200 with the aid of an adapter.
I just wonder if I can enter manually, as an input to the camera, the aperture I have chosen so that it calculates the shutter speed. I think that it is not possible, but, in case that somebody knows a way, please inform me about it.
My father used to take marvelous pictures with them, but I find it extremely tiring with all these calculations I have to make for a single descent shot...
Thank you,

WASHINGTON - Where a historic landmark once stood now sits a stump and wood chips.
And it was never supposed to happen.
"A large, historic tree was mistakenly cut down," says Jenny Anzelmo-Sarles, National Park Service spokeswoman.
"It's pretty incomprehensible that something like this could happen."
A contractor mistook the 102-foot-tall ginkgo tree for a sickly ash tree on the other side of Farragut Square and chopped it down early this month.
The company, Greentree, will likely face legal action.
"The park service will move to seek damages," says Anzelmo-Sarles.
"We are evaluating essentially the value of what happened."
Meanwhile, people who spend time around the downtown park will miss the oasis of shade.
"I was surprised and a little disappointed," one woman who walks through the park frequently tells WTOP.
A man who passes by the tree twice a day said it was sad to see.
"It was a beautiful tree, I have to say."
The Park Service says it was the tallest ginkgo tree in the District.
Historians estimate it was planted around 1873.

Voice the value of our products and services to customers.career in marketing might be the ticket for you.
Our world-class Springtown, Northern Ireland team and facility uses the most advanced technology in the industry to produce digital storage solutions.
See how our passion for innovation and collaboration translates into inspiration and success in Sales and Marketing, Customer Service, IT, Finance…
Each year, hundreds of students join Seagate for their internship to gain real-world experience, learn about the industry and get a glimpse of what a career is like at Seagate.
Nov 25, 2013
Seagate has the best talent in the industry, working together to deliver amazing storage products. But even with all of our considerable resources, we still need fresh ideas and new ways of looking at problems.
Our student internship program ensures that we never stop innovating and moving forward as a company.
This program offers a ton of benefits—for the students, their managers and teams, and for our company as a whole. Here's what some of our managers and our recent student interns had to say about the program and their experiences.
"New Tools and Ideas"
"In the tech world, things are always changing fast and college interns bring new tools and ideas to Seagate," said Cary Johnson, a principal engineer, failure analysis, in Shakopee. "They don't always prescribe to the 'that's the way we've always done it' approach."
Cary worked with David Pitchford, an intern on assignment at Seagate in the summer of 2011. David worked on a series of software-development projects that were key parts of our strategic drive data-analysis process. "David did a great job," Cary said, "and his primary project, which was designed to process large volumes of field-return data, is still a critical tool that's heavily used today."
David is now a fulltime employee, working for Cary as an enterprise development engineer.
"Interns can bring a different mindset from those of us who've been at Seagate or in this industry for a long time," added Glenn Benson, senior engineering director, mechanical design, also in Shakopee.
Glenn and his team worked with student Logan Magnan this past summer. Logan helped Glenn's department set up new mechanical test equipment—work that included writing test scripts and conducting correlation studies between the older equipment and the new tester.
"Logan's work allowed his engineering supervisor to focus on product-development issues while the new tester was being prepared," said Glenn. "During the three months Logan was with us, his work resulted in saving about 12 months of direct time by his supervising engineer."
Glenn makes it a practice to involve any intern on his team in meetings and work discussions that will give the students a better understanding of the business needs that "motivate our assignments and work items," he explained. "The formal intern program meetings also give them the opportunity to see what other group functions do, and how they fit into the overall business."
Inside Track on Hiring
Another benefit of the internship program: Seagate often has an inside track when it comes to hiring a student intern after graduation.
"Having seen first-hand an intern's capabilities, it gives us the confidence in making an offer when the intern graduates," said Abhay Kataria, a managing principal engineer, R&D firmware, in Longmont.
One such intern is Ryan Caskey, who's wrapping up an internship in Longmont and will begin a full-time job with Seagate in May, after graduation. During his internship, Ryan designed, implemented and debugged a script to create memory preload files for use in system-on-a-chip (SoC) simulations. This script reduces the time spent debugging and running simulations, said his manager, Ed Hoskins.
"Nothing Like Class"
"My internship experience here was extremely beneficial," said Ryan. "It gave me my first real-world experience working in the industry. Working for a company like Seagate is nothing at all like being in class. This internship prepared me for a job better than any class could."
Kodi Hildebrandt, a former intern who will be joining the Longmont team fulltime in January, agreed.
"There's only so much you can gather in the classroom or a three-hour lab," said Kodi, who designed experiments testing thermal-mitigation strategies for SoC devices. "It's one thing to learn the theory in class, but another to try and understand it when applied. My internship gave me more perspective from the usual academic reports, and it helped show me areas that I need to improve upon."
Allison Hanley, an applications engineer in Shakopee, joined the company over two years ago, following a stint with another company after graduation. Before that, she had been an intern at Seagate and enjoyed the experience. Coming back to Seagate was an easy decision for her, she said.
"The technology that Seagate develops is on the forefront of the industry—whether it's finding new storage solutions in the hard drive realm, or exploring new possibilities in solid-state technology," Allison said. "Having exposure to all of this is extremely exciting as a young employee. I've gotten to work on multiple programs and across many job functions. Every day, I wind up leaving with new knowledge I didn't have before, and that's unbelievably rewarding."
Aug 28, 2014
A graduate student from the University of California at Santa Cruz is helping Seagate bring more intelligence to hard drives.
Last year, at a conference at UCSC's Storage Systems Research Center, Reka Pitchumani, a computer science Ph.D. candidate, presented her work in developing an object-based management system for shingled-magnetic disks. Seagate representatives were in the audience and were so impressed they offered Pitchumani a job.
Today, Pitchumani works at Seagate as a summer intern while she completes her Ph.D. thesis.
Shingled-magnetic recording (SMR) technology enables hard drives to store more information by squeezing data tracks closer together. Tracks overlap one another, like a roof's shingles, permitting more data to be written to the same space. Updating large data centers with shingled disks, however, requires a software upgrade for each server—a process that can be time-consuming.
Self-Managed Disks
Pitchumani's idea was to streamline that process by having the disks manage themselves.
"It means the customer doesn't have to change software every time the disk drive technology changes," she explains. "By placing the data-management software directly on the disk, customers don't have to manually install new software every time they add storage to their servers."
Mark Re, SVP and Chief Technology Officer at Seagate, said Pitchumani's expertise aligns well with the company's efforts to "architect more intelligence into the drive."
"That's been a very challenging area for our industry," Re says. "Rekha shows the value of our internship program. Bright students like her can really help Seagate look at new ways to solve some tough problems for our customers."
Pitchumani, 29, first worked as a Seagate intern last summer, in which she developed software for shingled disks. She's back at Seagate fulltime this summer for another internship. She'll work on a part-time basis for Seagate in the fall and expects to complete her Ph.D. within the next year.
Broader Potential
Pitchumani's work not only applies to Seagate's HDD business, but it's also applicable to the company's solid-state drive products, says her manager, Jim Hughes, a principal technologist at Seagate.
"Flash devices face similar data-management issues as SMR disks," Hughes said. "Rekha's research is quite remarkable. It's definitely not every day that you see a graduate student whose work is making an immediate impact on cloud-storage products right off the bat like this."
Pitchumani, who's also juggling work and studies as the mother of a five-year-old boy, says she enjoys working in an environment where she has the freedom to pursue her research and get guidance from experienced engineers and technologists.
"At Seagate, it's not just about coming up with new ideas but making sure the research has a real benefit for customers," she says. "I have the freedom to explore my ideas, but at the same time I have colleagues with years of proven experience to help guide my work and make sure I'm on the right path." —By Steve Pipe

Been pretty lucky crowd-wise...
I can think of only 1 U2 show experience where I was surrounded by dopes; one of the Vertigo Tour shows at the United Center in Chicago. Won't go into details, makes my blood boil. In any event I was lucky enough to see EVERY U2 show in Chicago on the 360º tour. Was so thankful that our seats didn't pit us next to idiots who'd eventually ruin the show. There were a few girls at one of the shows who were tanked before the show even started (why waste all that money on tickets and beer, only to act like an @$$ & then not know what's going on? Shameful...), but I refused to let them ruin our night. Hearing Zooropa live for the first time was something I'll never forget; same with One Tree Hill to close the night. So memorable...
greydogblues - 17 March, 2012
hey SDL...
I had a similar experience in Chicago where - for the first time in 25 years of following the band - obnoxious guys were telling us to sit, and yelling "shut up already and play Streets" during the Amnesty Int'l tribute. So, I decided I would not end my summer experience with that - then next day made arrangements for MN and that show was magic. Saw 360 five times in June/July. I will admit, although I'd done the ZooTV tour bigtime, I'd forgotten about how awesome Zooropa is. I have since rediscovered it. I have also enjoyed these past few months discovering other songs that didn't move me or maybe I wasn't ready for? I don't know - but, I'm rocking this downtime. Happy St. Pat's to all!

Great song live, lame crowd
Loved this song live, in St. Louis (the heat was a bit much). Excellent addition to the set list. Very disappointed in the crowd, particularly the people who objected to those of us standing, getting into it, enjoying the show. It was a concert for cryin' out loud, not a poetry reading. And I'm a St. Louisan, so doubly disappointed in my hometown crowd. Amazing the different atmosphere at the other shows I attended.
Roland Juno 60 - 11 March, 2012
She's Gonna Dream Of The....Teletubbies!
This was a great addition to the U2 360 tour set list. How about the "Teletubbies" bridge between Zooropa and City of Blinding Lights? That was clever. Happy St Patrick's Day!
musicabona - 09 March, 2012
Zooropa...it will be mine soon
In 1993 Zooropa took us from the present to the future, introducing us to a surreal kind of Europe where technology rules. With its sonic exploration and open song structure, it was clearly ahead of its time. Inspired by advert slogans, the lyrics express a feeling of confusion and disorientation people have to cope with in an artificial world dominated by the big influence mass media excert on them. This stunning live version proves that Zooropa still sounds as fresh and contemporary as if it had been written now. It truly offered one of the most memorable and passionate live moments of the 360 Tour. I am very happy that this track will be on U22!
Ric Mondragon - 08 March, 2012
"I hear voices... ridiculous voices..."
After seeing the band many times over the years, I was thrilled to finally hear this song live in L.A. during their last leg of 360*! As one of my favorite U2 songs, I'm glad they've included it as part of the package. It clearly is one of the most unique songs from their music catalog. This video from the interior of the space station is very cool - wish we could see it in it's entirety! "Let's go to the overground..."
YuRi_UsA - 08 March, 2012
This song was created way ahead its time... Is like a glimpse of the future in 1993. For some reason it felt a little out of place back them, but is totally in sinc with the 21st century. It definitely suits the 360 tour and I only wish it was played on its entirely, but hey, I don't think the guys want any fans dying out of pure joy : ) I got chills up my spine every time I listen to the night they played it in Sao Paulo. I just could not believe in my ears when the question "What Do You Want" started to repeat between Miss S. and Zooropa. Was a honor for Brazil to be the place where they decide to make that "Experience". Thank you guys. From a long time fan. : )
gladams - 07 March, 2012
Achunting Blessing!
I was pleasantly surprised by the number of Achtung Baby / Zooropa songs U2 played at Soldier Field in Chicago when I saw them this summer. Achtung Baby was the U2 album that found me finally embracing the band as my own, instead of a curiosity brought to my attention by a friend. Viva la Baby!
