Arrive Paris
Tour begins: 6:30 PM, InterContinental Paris Pullman Tour Eiffel. A transfer is included from Paris Charles de Gaulle Airport or Gare de Lyon, Charles de Gaule Station or Gare du Nord train stations to Paris Pullman Tour Eiffel. Your family's France river cruise gets off to a fabulous start from the moment you check into your hotel – and revel in the views of the Eiffel Tower from your deluxe room's balcony! Meet the families you'll be traveling with at a reception and dinner, with entertainment, in Ballroom Orsay of your hotel – with views of the Eiffel Tower as a backdrop.
Pullman Paris Tour Eiffel
A day in Paris – sights, picnic at the Tuileries Gardens, a haunted mansion
Get a heads-up on all the fuss made about the city of Paris on an orientation tour that gives you a firsthand look at the Eiffel Tower, Arc de Triomphe, Notre Dame Cathedral and the Louvre. Then head to the "Left Bank," Paris' more Bohemian, artsy side, where you'll have the chance to purchase the makings of your very own picnic at Le Bon Marche, the oldest department store in Paris with a supersized collection of gourmet foods from around the world. Head to the Tuileries Gardens to enjoy your picnic lunch before an insider's visit to Notre Dame. Join us later for a sure-to-be-remembered visit to La Manoir de Paris, a haunted mansion where legends of Paris are brought to life – with a twist.
A scavenger hunt in the Louvre, a high-speed train to Lyon... and France river cruising begins
Spend your morning in one of the most famous museums in the world, where you're invited on a treasure hunt like no other. Right under your nose – or maybe not – you'll team up to follow clues that lead to works of art that are among the most prized art treasures of the world (like the Mona Lisa, Winged Victory or Liberty Leading the People). Then hop aboard a high-speed train called the TGV to travel south to Lyon, where you'll board the ms Swiss Emerald, your floating hotel for the next seven nights. Tauck's family France river cruising begins as the crew makes sure that you know your way around before the captain's welcome reception and dinner tonight aboard ship.
Aboard the Riverboat
In Lyon, a fortress-like cathedral, "old" Lyon & a taste of the city
Basilique de Fourviére stands magnificently en garde above central Lyon; visit this fortress-like cathedral, nicknamed the "upside-down elephant," this morning for a fascinating overview of 19th-century architecture and spectacular city views. Head down to Vieux Lyon, where you'll discover a maze of narrow streets, elegant buildings and underground passageways thought to date back to the 4th century; they were used by medieval craftsmen to transport their silk wares without exposure to bad weather and during World War II, by locals trying to evade the city's German Occupation. This afternoon offers some free time to do as you please in Lyon, followed by a bicycle ride and a "dare-you-to" tasting of Lyonnaise delicacies... something a little different on Tauck France river cruising...
Do a little time traveling to "old Rome" in Vienne
Discover Vienne, a town set on the vineyard-covered banks of the Rhône, surrounded by steep hills. One of the most ancient towns in France, Vienne was once a Roman colony and a residence for its emperors. Right in the center of town, surrounded by cafés and shops, you'll find remains of the Temple of Augustus – constructed around 20 to 10 BC, and a Roman Theatre. You'll encounter several Roman ruins today which, when you use your imagination, give you the opportunity to time travel... you just never know what you'll find during France river cruising! Depart mid-afternoon for Viviers, where you just might be treated to some special entertainment this evening...
Take a walk through medieval Viviers, play "pétanque" & get acquainted with Arles
This morning brings adventure to your France river cruise with a walking tour of Viviers, where you'll wind your way up through narrow, cobbled streets, curious passageways and doorways in shades of blue and green... leading up to the petite 12th-century Cathédrale Saint-Vincent. Next, try your hand at a game of pétanque, played by tossing a small metal boule about the size of an orange. Back aboard the riverboat, cruise to Arles, where you can join us on an evening walk to get acquainted with the town in which the artist Vincent van Gogh painted some of his most beloved works.
An adventure with the cowboys of La Camargue and a little Vincent van Gogh in Arles
France river cruising presents a different opportunity for your family today – get a change of scenery on a drive into the Camargue for a taste of France's "wild west." This vast marshy delta has been home to free-roaming black bulls since Roman times; today the bulls are looked after by French gardians (cowboys), saddled up on white Camargue horses. You'll see them up close at a private ranch, called a manade, and a hayride into the fields to see bulls, mares and foals. Enjoy a Provençal lunch, gypsy music and a daring show in which players attempt to retrieve paper tokens from a bull's horns. Later today you'll return to medieval Arles for a walking tour that brings alive many of the places captured in brilliant strokes of color by van Gogh.
An Avignon palace, bicycling & a 1st-century marvel
Everyone dreams at one time or another of living in a palace... and today's France river cruising brings your family to an extravagant grand palace with four mighty towers... On a guided tour of 12th-century Palais des Papes in Avignon, once a "renegade" papal palace (built in opposition to Rome), your imagination takes flight as you explore one of Europe's largest medieval Gothic buildings. You'll have some time this afternoon to discover Avignon as you please, and a chance to swim. Then everyone meets up to walk across the famed Pont du Gard, and enjoy some refreshments; this three-level, 164-ft.-high "bridge" was built by the Romans to carry fresh water over the Gardon River nearly 2,000 years ago! Back aboard the riverboat, join us for a barbecue dinner on the Sun Deck tonight.
Valence, Tournon-sur-Rhône and Tain l'Hermitage: cuisine, a castle & chocolates
Fine French cuisine is the focus of today's fun when you visit the renowned cooking school of a three-Michelin-starred chef for a very cool family cooking demonstration in Valence. Next, in Tournon-sur-Rhône, you'll see a town known for the 10th-century feudal castle built into a rock overlooking the town before venturing just across the waterway in Tain l'Hermitage to stop in at the home of Valhrona chocolates for tastes of the exquisite confections made on-site. France river cruising days end this evening with the captain's farewell reception and dinner – a family travel experience that will be long remembered in the years to come!

Our family France river cruising concludes in Lyon today as your family disembarks ms Swiss Emerald; fly home anytime. A transfer is included from the riverboat to either the Lyon Airport or Lyon's Perrache or Part Dieu train stations; you should allow a minimum of 3 hours for flight check-in at the airport.

Although oversize bags and wheeled, carry-on luggage are popular for airline travel, they are often not convenient or appropriate for motor coach travel or for many on-tour flights. Most modern sightseeing motor coaches offer limited space for numerous or larger items. Space under seats or in the overhead rack is typically small, and designed to accommodate items like coats, hats, purses, and small camera bags, etc.
For your day-to-day travel while on tour, we recommend that you limit your hand luggage to a small, soft-sided carry-on piece, and that you bring only those items you need handy during the day such as make-up, medications, cameras, film, etc. Items too large to fit under the motor coach seat or on the overhead rack must be stored in the luggage bays beneath the motor coach, and may be inaccessible during daytime travel.
If you are a U.S. citizen traveling internationally, you will need a passport valid for six months beyond the completion of your Tauck journey for entry into France. You do not need a visa for the short duration of this journey.
If you are a citizen of another country internationally, you should contact a French consulate or embassy to determine what travel documentation is required.
Please note that longer stays abroad for any purpose may require additional travel documentation.
You will be issued a boarding card for the riverboat, which you must present before embarking the ship in each port. This security measure also ensures that only Tauck guests are permitted onboard.
We recommend that you make at least two photocopies of all the travel documents that you bring with you. Include copies of the photo page of your passport that contains the date of issuance, the date of expiration and your citizenship. Secure one set of copies in the safe in your room while traveling and leave one set behind with someone at home who will assist you in the event your documents are misplaced, lost or stolen.
Note: For activities marked with an asterisk (*) in day-by-day descriptions, participation is at your own risk; a signed liability waiver will be required.
Your Tauck Director will assist you with airline and other carrier communications, but has no inside contacts to guarantee or expedite recovery of lost luggage. All recovery costs, including the communication costs, are your responsibility. Check your travel protection details for covered expenses.
The journey begins at 6:00 PM at Paris – Pullman Paris Eiffel Tower Hotel on the first day of the tour. When making flight arrangements, please allow sufficient time to claim luggage and clear customs in order to join the cruise on time. The journey ends after breakfast on the riverboat on the last day of the cruise. Each carrier and each airport has different rules regarding how early you must arrive for flight check in. Please contact your individual carrier for this information.
Please contact your cell phone carrier to determine whether your cell phone service extends to France.
Children who are U.S. citizens must have a passport valid for at least six months beyond the completion of the journey.
We are not responsible for the disruption of travel caused by the improper documentation of any guest, including children traveling without both parents. While there is no definitive format or standard, click here to view a sample letter for guardians or one parent traveling with a child.
If you are traveling from the U.S., the U.S. Transportation Security Administration (TSA) requires that your name, as it appears on your domestic or international airline ticket, must precisely match your name as it appears on the government-issued photo ID (i.e., passport or driver's license) that you present during security screening. The ID name must also match any additional airline data, such as frequent-flyer information. For example, if you present your driver's license to security and it says John T. Smith, your ticket must also say John T. Smith, not John Thomas Smith, Jack Smith, or any other variant. Your date-of-birth and gender information provided to the airline must also match your passport.
If you make your air travel arrangements through us, please ensure that the name you provide us precisely matches your name as shown on the identification you will use while traveling. If you make your own airline reservations, please ensure that the airline has the correct information.
For more information on the TSA's requirements, please visit their website by clicking here.
If you are traveling from an airport outside the jurisdiction of the U.S., you will need to determine what travel documentation and identification is required for that particular airport.
Due to heightened security regulations, certain items such as a metal nail file, pocketknife, cigarette lighter, or tweezers, and some liquid, gel, or aerosol items may not be permitted in your carry-on luggage. Please call your airline prior to departure to obtain current information on non-permissible carry-on items and recommended airport check-in times.
Your journey is designed with leisure in mind. Dress for comfort and convenience with a wardrobe that is adaptable and allows for layering. Generally, during the day, casual, comfortable, cotton clothing is recommended. Cool weather at higher elevations or at night will require warmer, layered clothing. For the welcome and farewell receptions, casual resort wear is appropriate; formal wear is never required for dining with your fellow guests at a Tauck-provided dinner. When dining on your own, you may choose to dine at a restaurant that may require men to dress in coat and tie, and women in more elegant eveningwear.
Valet laundry service is available at the hotel and on the riverboat for a fee. There is no valet dry cleaning available on the riverboat. Ironing facilities are available on the riverboat by request to the front desk. Category 7 cabins feature their own irons and ironing boards.
We recommend that you pack an adequate supply of your prescription medication in its original container to last through your entire journey, together with a copy of your doctor's prescription or a letter from your health-care provider on office stationery explaining that the medication has been prescribed for you, a list of the generic names of your medication, your travel documents and a change of clothing in your carry-on bag to avoid any inconvenience in the event that your flight or luggage is delayed. No medications are sold on board the riverboat.
We suggest that you pack the following items your journey:
Each child 17 and under will be sent a complimentary backpack from Tauck Bridges! If the child resides in the continental United States, the backpack will be sent to his or her home approximately two weeks prior to the tour departure date. If the child resides outside of the continental U.S., including Hawaii and Alaska, the backpack will be waiting on arrival at the first hotel on your itinerary.
To enjoy this cruise, you should be in good health and able to walk reasonable distances, often over unpaved and uneven surfaces. Some of the most memorable sightseeing can only be accomplished on foot. The amount of walking you do, however, is at your discretion.
Your riverboat has four decks: Emerald, Ruby, Diamond and Sun. The elevator runs between the Diamond Deck and the Dining room, which includes stops at the Lounge and the Ruby Deck. There is no chair lift between any of the decks.
On the Emerald deck, you will find a Fitness & Massage Center on board. The Fitness Center is complimentary and includes a limited variety of fitness equipment such as treadmills, stationary cycling machines and free weights. Massages are available for a fee in a private room off of the Fitness Center. The water on board the ship is potable and complimentary bottled water is placed in your cabin each day. We also provide bottled water on the motor coaches.
Smoking is permitted in a limited area of the Sun deck. Smoking is not permitted in any cabin, restaurant, lounge or any other interior space.
PLEASE NOTE: We regret that this Tauck itinerary cannot accommodate wheelchairs or motorized scooters. Likewise, we regret that we're unable to provide individual assistance to guests with walking difficulties or other personal needs. The responsibility of the Tauck Director who accompanies your trip is to ensure that the larger group enjoys a relaxing and informative journey, and he or she cannot be relied upon to provide ongoing individual assistance to any one guest. Guests requiring such individualized assistance must be accompanied by an able-bodied companion who can provide it.
Unfortunately, we cannot accommodate service animals on any river cruise for medical and legal reasons.
Because you will be cruising on a river and not on the open sea, you are never far from land and, therefore, there is no doctor onboard the riverboat. In case of emergency, we can easily dock the boat and call for an ambulance or medical assistance.
If you have a medical condition that might limit your participation in activities, please consult your physician for pre-departure health advice and notify us as soon as possible, if you have not already done so. We will advise your Tauck Director accordingly.
Your riverboat is registered in Basel, Switzerland. Please check with your health insurance provider to determine whether you are covered while traveling. If you will not be covered under your current policy, we strongly suggest that you arrange for adequate coverage while on tour.
If you are a resident of the U.S., please contact your physician, the public health service in your area, or the U.S. Centers for Disease Control to obtain information regarding vaccinations that may be required for your journey. The Travelers' Health Section of the CDC operates a 24-hour "Travelers' Health Hotline" at 800-232-4636 (toll-free in the U.S.). You may also log on to the CDC website by clicking here.
If you are a resident of another country, please contact a French embassy or consulate to determine what vaccinations may be required for you to visit.
If you are a U.S. resident who will be returning to the U.S. at the end of the tour, you are entitled to a duty-free exemption based on the total value of merchandise purchase abroad, as long as you physically bring them home with you. There are limits to the amount of alcohol that can be a part of this exemption. Certain restrictions apply to unaccompanied goods mailed from abroad to the U.S. Please call your local customs office or consult the U.S. government's customs regulations as contained in their publication entitled Know Before You Go.
If you are a resident of another country, please refer to your own country's rules and regulations regarding customs and duty-free shopping to ensure compliance upon your return.
Many countries levy Value Added Taxes (VAT) on consumer goods and services. (The tax rate may be higher for luxury items and lower for basic goods.) As a rule, if you are not a resident of the country (or of the country's intergovernmental economic community, e.g., the European Union) in which the purchase is made, you may be entitled to a VAT refund and should inquire about the refund policy where you shop.
Complimentary internet service and WIFI are available for your use while traveling on board the riverboat. You will need to use a password provided by the front desk to access the wireless internet service for your own laptop. You may also use a stationary computer located in the Lido Bar or you may borrow a laptop from the front desk. PLEASE NOTE: Internet access is made possible by means of cellular service, and reception is impacted by several factors such as weather patterns, signal strength and the ship's location. Some email providers such as AOL, Comcast, and Bellsouth may not be available along the river. Internet reception is poor while in locks and may not be available at certain locations along your route. Your patience and understanding regarding connectivity limitations are appreciated. Complimentary basic Internet where available in hotel rooms; service levels are not guaranteed.
The maximum land elevation on this tour is approximately 925 ft (282 m)

Cruising the Rhône and Saône rivers in France, ms Swiss Emerald was designed to be open and airy, making full use of natural light – the perfect riverboat to cruise impressionist French landscapes.
Overall Rating:
While the portion on the boat was lovely, we spent FAR too much time on the bus in Paris. Also, as a small family travelling, I felt that the large family groups got much more attention and resources than we did.
The Pont du Gard and cocktails after visiting the Pont du Gard. Everything about that excursion was perfect.
Would you recommend Tauck to a friend?No
Thank you for sharing your feedback. We are sorry some aspects of this journey fell below your expectations. One of our Guest Relations Specialists will contact you to discuss this matter in more detail.
-The Tauck Guest Relations Team
The cruise on the Rhone with my grand daughter was delightful. After wonderful guided tours in very warm weather, it was such a relief to return to the ship and a welcoming drink
There are not enough superlatives to describe the accomodations, food and guides. Everything went like clockwork.
Watching my grand daughter experience new people, places, and foods.
Would you recommend Tauck to a friend?Definitely
Tauck did their usual wonderful planning and had fabulous guides. After doing the Danube last year, this trip was a a little disappointing. We probably shouldn't have done it right after the Danube. The local guides were a little boring and long winded. Loved the boat and the accommodations.
The Eiffel Tower at night and the aqueduct .
Thank you so much for your feedback. We are sorry you were disappointed with some aspects of this journey but will share your comments with management.
This was our first Tauck experience and it was wonderful. Above all, we liked the Swiss Emerald being our "home base" and when in the river towns we could get on and off the boat as we wished. Our Cruise Directors, Simon, Veronica and Marie France were great. They were informative, very organized and very engaging with the kids (and adults too!)
There were many. The Eiffel Tower, Notre Dame, Arles...the beautiful scenery along the Rhone, going through the locks. We loved it all. Our kids made friends. Lastly I must mention the wonderful French breads and rolls and cheeses. Nothing like it. We so looked forward to that on the Swiss Emerald during our meals...
We are so pleased you and your family enjoyed your journey and experienced so many wonderful memories.
This is our second bridges river cruise and once again it was a memorable vacation. The tour directors(Veronica, Tod, Simon and Marie France)were superb. Local guides very knowledgable. Only suggestion would be to perhaps cut out one of the smaller towns along the way to allow for more free time to leisurely explore cities and towns along the way.
Hard to choose just one. Lunch and bull fight, Sophie Pic cooking school, time in Avignon, Captain's willingness to delay sailing so we could enjoy fireworks on Bastille Day. Your tour directors & cruise ship personnel is what makes these trips so memorable due to their high attention to detail and knowledge of the areas we are visitin
We are thrilled you enjoyed your journey with you family and returned with so many memorable moments.

As a single mom with two children, I find river cruising to be a fantastic way for us to travel. Tauck handles everything, and we basically unpack just once. France is incredible, whether it's the charm of Paris or the historic towns along the Rhone. We all learned a lot while enjoying a true trip of a lifetime.

Rule #1 - Be Patient - Rule #2 - Don't ask when, if you don't contribute - Rule #3 - You have coding skills - LinuxMCE's small brother is available: http://www.agocontrol.com
I'm on 8.10 all it's the only version I have found to work !!
Dianemo S10.10, but I do miss a lot of the LinuxMCE features that are not implemented in Dianemo yet. Keep up the great work!
Hi,can you please give some more info about features you miss in Dianemo and are present in current LMCE ?Thanks in advance,regards,Bulek.
I'll jump in here... we will have updated MythTV & FreePBX/Asterisk packages in coming weeks that will allow users of Dianemo S10.10 to replicate what they can on LinuxMCE while still delivering the unique Dianemo features like uPnP etc. We are also hoping to have the Gyration support re-instated too in the same time frame.I think the above are the main areas where we have some work to do to if you want to match LinuxMCE features.All the bestAndrew
Small question. I know their's work being done on 10.04 a LTS I'm glad the next build is being based on a LTS. My only question / suggestion would be. Instead of starting a new project on 10.04 which is supported through until April 2013 for the desktop version, and until April 2015 for the server version. Would it be better to just start on 12.04 with support from 26 April 2012 to April 2017? I know 12.04 hasn't made alpha yet (dec1 I think) This way we start off fresh with a version that will have through support form main stream through the development process of LMCE. Going this route we won't have to worry about them dropping support for it before the final build like they did with 8.10.
Speaking of versions, what version of Asterisk will 10.04 have? It would be great if it has the latest version (1.8.x) which can support GVoice. Currently running a separate VM for Asterisk since 8.10 has Asterisk 1.4.

GIENGEN, Germany - A Christmas teddy bear is wheeled along on a trolley at the Steiff Stuffed Toy Factory on Nov. 23, in Giengen an der Brenz, Germany. Founded by seamstress Margarethe Steiff in 1880, Steiff has been making stuffed teddy bears since the early 20th century ever since her nephew Richard Steiff exhibited the first commercially produced teddy bear in Europe in 1903. Teddy bears are among the most popular children's toys and the company is hoping for a strong Christmas season.

Well, for the log you linked, of course you're going to get owned on HPS on Beth'Tilac, which is primarily about spamming AoE heals (far from a Paladin's forte). It looks like you were just spamming Divine Light on your Beacon target and then using your HP on Light of Dawn, not a bad strat for that fight (at least on 25).
If this is your only point of comparison for Firelands, I'd give it a few more bosses before you say "I suck". Shannox and Rhyolith are both more about triage than spamming AoE to top people off, and Baleroc is all about the single-target healing, etc.
edit: Nevermind, I forgot to look at your kills in the armory (derp). Let's look at Shannox a few days ago:
Word of Glory and Light of Dawn barely make up 10% of your total healing, which seems really low - keep an eye on your HP usage, make sure you're not sitting at full HP for too long unless you're waiting for a damage spike.
I also see, out of 12 fights most of which lasted longer than 7 minutes, you used Avenging Wrath three times and never once used Divine Favor. Cooldown usage is huge for a Holy Paladin, and it's something to work on (and yes, I run into the same issues :-P ).

Expand your mobile banking services. Strengthen your brand. Broaden your customer base. Differentiate your bank from the competition. And, even more important, create new revenue opportunities. These are among the potential benefits of the e-wallet, a much-anticipated smartphone packed with a multitude of banking and payments solutions. Unfortunately, despite the efforts of such major players as Google, Sprint, Paypal and Isis, the e-wallet has remained elusive in the U.S. market ... until now.
FIS, one of the worlds largest providers of banking and payments technology, has entered the e-wallet sweepstakes with its new mobile wallet, a cloud-based payment solution that can be built into any financial institutions existing mobile banking applications, thus enhancing brand and customer loyalty.
FIS Mobile Wallet is unique in its ability to support existing smartphones and existing point-of-sale hardware, while still being forward-compatible with new technology as it becomes available, said Doug Brown, FIS senior vice president of mobile financial solutions. This enables financial institutions to launch a mobile wallet today, and to attract and retain customers via their own financial institution-branded mobile payment solutions.
Success of the e-wallet and digital banking in general ultimately hinges on merchant and consumer adoption. Retailers must see the benefits of mobile payments, which FIS understands. Its mobile wallet has the ability to promote advertising, couponing and companion offers to consumers, thus enhancing the ability to generate sales. Currently, it uses quick response, or QR, codes to execute transactions. Payments are processed via a software connection through a secure cloud server and, therefore, do not require terminal updates by retailers.
E-wallet security is another major issue for consumers, merchants and financial institutions. A recent study by security company Symantec, for example, discovered that the majority of people who found a lost smartphone attempted to access financial and other information, rather than try to return the phone to its owner. Brown points out, however, that the FIS Mobile Wallet is uniquely secure because no payment credentials, such as credit card numbers, are stored on the smartphone. Even more impressive, the customers private information is not even provided to the POS device, thus ensuring total security on the bank and the merchant sides of a transaction and eliminating PCI compliance burdens for merchants.
As the mobile wallet replaces the traditional wallet, said Brown, there is the potential for a profound change in consumer behavior, as well as the way financial institutions and merchants engage their customers. The anytime, anywhere nature of mobile and online represent an unparalleled level of convenience that consumers will continue to embrace.
This is putting more pressure on banks. In fact, Brown believes banks must provide the channels consumers want for accessing and managing their financial information. He recommends four best practices to strengthen banks position in the digital world:
Younger generations that have grown up with this mobile technology expect their financial providers to offer these services, stores in which they shop to handle their e-wallet transactions and their e-wallets to be completely secure.

I'm a backup raider for my friend's guild. My iLevel is considerably lower than their MT, but I pride myself on being a good tank, following the best practices, and being the most "efficient" and "optimal."
The other day the GM tells me that the main tank told him, "you know... I think your friend is probably a better tank than I am."
It's a point of pride for me, I HATE it when I screw up and I watch my health yo-yo or I have to use last stand when I shouldn't have had to or whatever. I have to be optimal, and to be optimal I need to be good at active mitigation.
I will say though, that the ability for healers to keep up shitty tanks is why I think that AFTER you are to a point where you can keep your active mitigation abilities up as close to max as possible (for a warrior this pretty much means getting to hit/exp cap) that stacking stam is the way to go. Gives healers more time to heal you, and they apparently aren't running out of mana.

eBay Find of the Day: Zagato's 2008 Bentley Continental GTZ show car
by Noah Joseph (RSS feed) on Dec 10th, 2011 at 10:01AM
Back in 2008, Milanese design studio Zagato got together with Bentley to create the Continental GTZ, a coachbuilt version of Crewe's prolific luxury coupe. Unveiled at the Geneva Motor Show, the design had some beautiful elements, but the GTZ wasn't supposed to be a one-and-done affair. For a handsome fee, Zagato offered to rebody anyone's Continental GT to mirror the show car; no more than nine examples were to be built. Unfortunately, it looks like nobody was willing to shell out the €800,000 asking price (a bit over $1M USD – plus the donor car's MSRP) to have theirs... Read More

Corporate Income Tax
South Carolina taxes the income of corporations at a 5% rate. State taxable income is federal taxable income with South Carolina modifications. Multi-state corporations determine South Carolina taxable income by allocating non-business income and gains from selling real estate prior to applying an apportionment ratio. Corporations whose principal activity in this State is manufacturing, selling or otherwise dealing in tangible personal property use an apportionment ratio equal to sales in South Carolina divided by sales everywhere. Most others use a ratio equal to gross receipts in South Carolina divided by gross receipts from everywhere. Railroad companies, motor carriers, telephone service companies, pipeline companies, airline companies, and shipping lines doing a multi-state business have special apportionment formulas.
Returns are due at the same time as federal returns. Estimated tax payment amounts and due dates are determined using federal rules.
Corporate License Fee
License fees are paid a year in advance. The initial license fee is $25. Subsequent license fees are payable by the original due date for filing the tax return or request for an extension.
Description of Topics Available for

Aviation Photos ✈ Photo of Gulfstream V (06-0500)
Gulfstream Aerospace Gulfstream V (06-0500)
wouldn't it be classified as a C-37A instead of a Gulfstream V since it is military (they are the exact same plane, just the ones the military operates are called C-37As)
Love the picture though, excellent shot
It is but if C37A is not inputted when uploading photo, it says invalid aircraft type. Thanks for the compliment.
Ah, ok. I kind of expect that because very few were actually labeled C-37A. sorry about that, when it comes to planes I am kind of technical (I am one of those guys who gets mad at my friends when they call the UH-1 Iroquois the Huey). But still a great pic.

2013 Ford Explorer Sport officially rated at 365 HP, 16/22 MPG
by Steven J. Ewing (RSS feed) on Aug 24th, 2012 at 1:30PM
The 2013 Ford Explorer Sport goes on sale this fall, packing a 3.5-liter EcoBoost V6, premium interior features and sporty (sort of) exterior design elements. And while Ford originally told us that the Sport would produce "at least 350 horsepower," we've now learned that the top-trim Explorer will churn out 365 hp and 360 pound-feet of torque. If that sounds familiar, it's because those are the same totals found in the Taurus SHO sedan, which shares its engine. 365 hp and 350 lb-ft are a welcome improvement over the 290 hp and 255 lb-ft present in the naturally aspirated V6 model.

But theres still some stuff that keeps me from being happy over it.

Also, TipTac. I can't get it up! I've been trying to type /Tip Tac open/config/set/options, and much more. But all it says is some text and wont let me get that window to configure my TipTac addon.
