We mailed the wrong DSL modem back to Sonic, so we haven't got our deposit back. Does anyone know where the Pace 5168 modem is? it looks like this: https://wiki.sonic.net/wiki/File:Pace5168n.png someone just told me that we never had that modem. Does that mean that Sonic is mistaken about the hardware we were using? If you know of a modem like this please tell me where it is, it's worth $150 to sudoroom to get our equipment deposit back. thank you, -jake ---------- Forwarded message ---------- Date: Tue, 10 Nov 2015 14:31:22 -0800 From: Sonic.net Tech Support Subject: Re: [Sonic #3519117] [BILLING] Re: Sonic.net Invoice #7734422 Greetings, Upon review of your account, the equipment that was returned was not the correct equipment in which we requested. The item in which was returned was a Zyxel modem, which at the time we were selling those to our customers and did not require the return for them. However the return label that was issued was for a Pace 5168 which was issued for the service in which was on your account. We are more then happy to return the charge to the account once we receive the correct equipment. <...>

Re: [sudo-discuss] Benefit Corporation?

"Most events that we do in the ballroom are educational, and collecting door money could fit into a donations framework pretty easily." unfortunately, unless a group that rents the ballroom is ok with making the event appear as though the omni is hosting/organizing the event, i'm afraid the group would have to be fiscally sponsored by the omni in order for the $ to be "from a charitable source"...even if the event is educational. ~r

You can make money, but most of it has to be from charitable donations. There's complicated math about exactly how much - at least 60%, but for large donations only the first $5k counts towards the total, it's based on a 4-year average, etc etc etc. The more non-charitable income you get, the more you have to worry about that stuff, and there's incentive to structure as much income as you can as "donations". The fundraising working group has been working for months on this, and the plan is for many member collectives to become fiscally sponsored by Omni, and all their members' payments to be called donations instead of dues. Most events that we do in the ballroom are educational, and collecting door money could fit into a donations framework pretty easily.

If he'd like to help with this issue, I'm sure there's a lot of work he could do. But right now what we need most is people willing to commit and follow through with tasks. I'm copying the building WG list for their info.

I could try to bring him over an evening ! Sent from my iPhone

Benefit Corporation?

by Mari M.

A few of us @ Sudo Room have been casually throwing around ideas about ways to generate money for the Omni without selling our soul to The Man and becoming Capitalist Pigs*™ <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trademark_symbol>. * One of our topics of discussion was the possibility of turning the Ballroom into a working venue and having that sustain us monetarily while the collectives focus on bringing excellence to the community. Robb, being as excellent as he is, is starting to form a collective focused on productions, from event management/AV training to actual execution of events. Rise up pad here. <https://pad.riseup.net/p/omniproductions> Some think we should continue as a non-profit, some think that we should try to actually turn the Ballroom into a money-making venue to help better serve the community. Perhaps a Benefit Corporation <http://www.entrepreneur.com/article/252259> could be the bridge between the two? I'd like to open this up for discussion. I'm not super knowledgeable about business, laws and how they work together but I know there are a lot of really intelligent people at the Omni that could help brainstorm this. Any thoughts, opinions, ideas or knowledge they'd like to share? By all means, take me to school! Thanks everyone!

Re: [sudo-discuss] Benefit Corporation?

my hope for a production collective is to learn & share the myriad skills that go into producing a sucessful fundraising event. if & when we get good at producing events, we will be able to help other non-profits generate attention & funds for their projects...and for our own. if access to the building & being a member of a collective at the omni is not valuable enough alone to the members of the collective, perhaps we could pay members who teach (sound/lights/stage setup) others during events. if we teach, instead of work, events; i think we have a better chance of having the $ we get for events being considered as from a charitable source. my $.02 ~r
