    + = Rails Girls The year 2011-2012 at a glance railsgirls.com “I thought I was just going to a workshop where I would meet some people, score a SoundCloud shirt, and learn a few things about Rails. I had no idea I was stumbling right into a movement that was clearly set out to do something big! I think the entire attitude of the workshop is summed up with “Why the hell not!” Why shouldn’t I learn how to program? Why shouldn’t I make a career out of it? I think if any of us had doubts that we couldn’t do it, Rails Girls set us straight.” - Participant in Berlin Get excited and start things Rails Girls gives girls and women the first experience to building the Internet. We believe that coding is a craft much like any form of creation. Right now we have a lot more people using code than those who are influencing it. Technology is changing our society in profound ways and we don’t think these revolutions should be conducted by only the code- savvy. Introduction Rails Girls is a community that helps and encourages women to build their ideas by offering workshops all around the world. Founded originally in Finland in 2010 it quickly started spreading across the globe and to date we’ve conducted events in Shanghai, Singapore, Tallinn, Berlin, Krakow and Helsinki. A global volunteer community The two-day Rails Girls event is free and open to all enthusiastic girls and women. We are a fully non-profit operation with a small base-funding from Finnish Technology Industries Federation.

Pittman CBS Corporation [email protected] Re: CBS Corporation Incoming letter dated January 26, 2016 Dear Ms. Pittman: This is in response to your letter dated January 26, 2016 concerning the shareholder proposal submitted to CBS by the Province of St. Joseph of the Capuchin Order. We also have received a letter on the proponent’s behalf dated February 25, 2016. Copies of all of the correspondence on which this response is based will be made available on our website at http://www.sec.gov/divisions/corpfin/cf-noaction/14a-8.shtml. For your reference, a brief discussion of the Division’s informal procedures regarding shareholder proposals is also available at the same website address. Sincerely, Matt S. McNair Senior Special Counsel Enclosure cc: Paul M. Neuhauser [email protected] March 1, 2016 Response of the Office of Chief Counsel Division of Corporation Finance Re: CBS Corporation Incoming letter dated January 26, 2016 The proposal requests that CBS adopt time-bound quantitative, company-wide goals, taking into consideration the most recent Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change guidance for reducing total greenhouse gas emissions, and issue a report on its plans to achieve these goals. We are unable to concur in your view that CBS may exclude the proposal under rule 14a-8(i)(7). In our view, the proposal focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions and does not seek to micromanage the company to such a degree that exclusion of the proposal would be appropriate. Accordingly, we do not believe that CBS may omit the proposal from its proxy materials in reliance on rule 14a-8(i)(7).
