outputBlock.Text &= String.Format("The local time zone is {0} hours and {1} minutes {2} than UTC.", _
                  Math.Abs(localTime.Offset.Hours), _
                  localTime.Offset.Minutes, _
                  IIf(localTime.Offset.Hours < 0, "earlier", "later")) & vbCrLf
DateTimeOffset localTime = DateTimeOffset.Now;
outputBlock.Text += String.Format("The local time zone is {0} hours and {1} minutes {2} than UTC.",
                  Math.Abs(localTime.Offset.Hours),
                  localTime.Offset.Minutes,
