The Cookery Classes have been awarded 5 stars. The award relates to:
The Autumn Kitchen at Ringmore House.
This month has seen us using up a wonderful crop of pears-mixing them with green tomatoes for chutney, making pear and Lavender ice-cream with the late blossoms from the garden, and poaching in syrup with Amaretto, to store in jars for desserts in Winter.
The rest of the huge crop of Pears given to me by a friend have been mixed with blackberries found in abundance locally, and made into Pear and Blackberry jam, which I rub through a sieve to remove those pesky pips ! The rest of the Blackberries are now in a black and rich Bramble jelly, an extravagant use of blackberries, but on a home made scone with clotted cream! What can you say?
Bakewell tart with fresh blackberries in the sponge, and Bramble jelly or jam underneath is a great variation on the more usual Raspberry version (local visitors to the shaldon coffee rush will often find that there, amongst the other cakes that I supply).
Apples have been fantastic in most gardens this year, we are lucky enough to have plenty, and have used the dessert apples in almond and apple tarts, strudels, and to grace the breakfast table; the cookers are in the freezer as apple sauce, and poached with blackberries to make crumbles in the next few months.
Excess apples are made into a jelly infused with Rosemary; ready to accompany Roast lamb or chicken, to flavour sauces and gravy, and even to add to a strong cheddar cheese on a biscuit.
The rain this month has brought on the everlasting spinach again, enabling spinach soup, souffles and stirred with cream and nutmeg to eat with Roast lamb, and a final growth spurt on Parsley is going to be protected with a cloche in the hopes we will be able to keep picking it for a couple of months. Next garden crop will be the Jerusalem Artichokes!
Gluten Free Cookery Classes
A full range of courses designed to enable individuals to enjoy both entertaining in style and daily classics, with Gluten free recipes and ideas to suit every diet . Regular recipes run alongside to ensure that friends can enjoy the same course.

Is there a picky eater at your dinner table? If so, you are not alone in fighting these mealtime battles. Several studies show that one out of every five preschoolers is considered a picky eater, which is the reason why many parents worry if their child is getting the adequate nutrition he or she needs for healthy growth and development.
Most children go through this phase of being a picky eater because experiencing foods of different texture, color and tastes can be frightening. Young children are used to consistency and familiarity, so it can be challenging when introducing nutritious foods to finicky eaters. That is why it is important for parents to educate their children on the rights and wrongs of healthy eating and having a balanced diet.
Consider these tips to help tame your picky eater:
Take some time to plan weekly menus. Putting a little thought and planning into mealtimes generally yields big health advantages. It also gives you and your family an opportunity to try new recipes and be adventurous! Be sure to include healthy amounts of fruits and vegetables.
Don't forget to involve children in planning, shopping and preparing meals. Use these activities to understand children's food preferences. At the grocery store, ask your child to help you select fruits, vegetables and other healthy foods. At home, encourage your child to help you rinse veggies, stir batter or set the table.
Make it fun. Cut foods into various shapes, try veggies and fruits with various dipping sauces and be creative.
Lead by example. Showing an example of proper eating habits is important. Instead of commenting on foods being bad or good, you need to show your child good eating habits by example.
Be patient with new foods. When introducing a new food to your child, you may need to expose the new food up to 10 times before they accept it. So be patient, changes are easier for children to handle if they are made slowly.
Stick to the routine. Serve meals and snacks at about the same times every day. If your child comes to the table hungry, they are more motivated to eat.
Respect your child's appetite. Young children tend to eat only when they're hungry. If your child isn't hungry, don't force a meal or snack.
Don't forget. Remember to praise children when they do make healthy choices.
If you are concerned that picky eating is jeopardizing your child's growth, consult your child's pediatrician. In the meantime, remember that your child's eating habits will not change overnight. Taking one step at a time can lead to a lifetime of healthy eating habits. Set the tone in your household by making healthy eating a rule as well as a practice!

This book focuses on the coordination between family life and professional career under the condition of repeated mobilities. It analyses the division between the labour force work and the care work of couples of highly-skilled migrants settling in either Switzerland or Germany. A mutually exclusive model provides an innovative understanding of gendered hierarchies in career achievement. The male partners operate three parallel elements: an upward professional career, a family-life implying child(ren), and maintaining their availability to further unplanned relocations. The female partners can only coordinate two of these concurrently. In fact, the male partners combine the three elements by taking advantage of specific, and mostly invisible, care work that the female partner provides.
Construction of gender hierarchies under the conditions of mobility – Professional career and family life coordination – Reflexive approaches on expatriation and highly-skilled migration – Discourses on gender and mobility – Representing migration: Between mobilities and anchors – Family-strategies of highly-skilled migrants

Salt, dampness, mud, snow… the harsh weather season is with us (we already had 12 inches of snow in Bridgnorth!) and it is easy to want to tuck your classic in for the winter. If you are not using your car all-year round, looking after it over the winter months will pay its rewards in the next spring season when you take it out of hibernation for your first drive. There are a number of things you can do to protect it:
Keep it dry and dust free: Before putting your car into hibernation, we recommend a thorough valet and polish to better protect the paint and components. Once in storage, if a carcoon is not an option, consider a breathable soft cover and ensure that the area is waterproof and that air can circulate.
Battery: We recommend using a trickle charger or a battery conditioner to keep your battery in tip top charge throughout long periods of inactivity in the garage without the risk of over charging.
Pumped up tyres: Keep the tyres inflated, preferably beyond the normal recommended level, to avoid flat spotting and use a use a pressure gauge to monitor levels over the storage months.
Antifreeze mix: Getting the antifreeze and water mix right is essential; otherwise the water can corrode all the internal components of the engine. Even if there is not a risk of freezing, consider using the antifreeze as it contains corrosion inhibitors that help prevent this from happening (minimum 30:70 or recommended 50:50 mix).
The handbrake: never leave the handbrake on for prolonged periods of time as this will likely result in seized brakes; simply put it in gear or use chocks instead.
Fresh air: Find a suitable dry day and salt-free roads, take your car out. Try to give it a 15-20 minute run every now and then so that the components are exercised. This will avoid mechanical deterioration and generally make your car more reliable. Don't be tempted to simply fire up the engine without taking the car for a drive; this can actually cause more damage.
Don't forget about the taxman! Tell DVLA you are taking your vehicle off the road via a Statutory Off Road Notification (SORN). You'll get a refund for any full months of remaining tax. You can't use the vehicle on the road until you tax it again.
We can help with all aspects of classic car ownership, from valeting to dry storage and general servicing so that your car is ready to be enjoyed next Spring. Please contact us for more to discuss your needs.

Federal spending for highways, which totaled $46 billion in 2019, is funded primarily by revenues credited to the Highway Trust Fund. But those revenues are falling short of spending from the fund. If the taxes that are credited to the trust fund were continued at their current rates and funding for highway and transit programs increased annually at the rate of inflation, the cumulative shortfall in the trust fund would reach $189 billion by 2030, CBO estimates. In this report, CBO discusses choices about revenues and spending that lawmakers face in addressing that shortfall and improving the nation's infrastructure; the agency also analyzes options for subsidizing state and local governments' financing of highway projects.

Reports of some type of melee last night at the Ahavas Torah Synagogue on Craven Park Road, that left one person injured, has surfaced on social media.
A video posted on YouTube appears to be of a drunk mob breaking their way into the synagogue shouting "we will kill you". Police say they were called at 1:15 am this morning (Sunday) to the disturbance.
It is believed the group of party goers from a nearby house party, tried to enter the Synagogue by smashing the glass panes on the door. A few gained entrance but were removed by security staff.
The incident is being treated as an anti-Semitic incident, due to remarks made by one of the group. However there is nothing to suggest that it was a planned or targeted attack nor any suggestion that theren is a far right or extrmesit related. Four men and two women were arrested for public order offences and assault, and all were taken to a north London police station where they remain in custody. Poice are currently reviewing local CCTV footage.
Inspector Jonathan Waterfield said: "We are investigating to establish the full circumstances of the incident and to identify anyone else involved in the disturbance who has not yet been arrested.
"We have also increased police patrols in the Stamford Hill area to provide reassurance to the community."
Anyone with information that may assist the investigation should call Haringey CID via 101.
The Synagogue is on the Tottenham/Stamford Hill border, and in this case is being investigated by police in Haringey.
Todays planned antisemitic rally on Clapton Common was abandoned after its organiser, was banned from entering London, and other known far right hoodlums were contacted by police.
2 Responses to "Drunk angry mob attack Stamford Hill synagogue (video)"
They could have kept the doors closed & barricaded & phoned for help, or at the most, opened up on those scumbags with fire extinguishers & any solid hard objects they could find in the shul, instead of standing around helpless.
For the life of me i cannot understand this recent targetting of Jews. What have they done to annoy the British.whilst i belong to neither side its too easy to criticise what the Muslim religon is doing for so obvious reasons but what have the Jews done?

Alumni Spotlight: Rachel Caldwell ('06)
"I have really wanted to be a teacher my whole life," says Rachel Caldwell ('06). "However, two experiences at MLWGS really cemented my desire to pursue a career in education: the time I spent volunteering with the Newtowne Tutoring Program, and my senior year mentorship with Annie Campbell, a second grade teacher at Fox Elementary. She helped me create a vision for my own future as a teacher." Rachel now teaches at Burnley-Moran Elementary School in Charlottesville, a position she accepted after graduating from the Curry School of Education at UVA.
In Rachel's fourth grade classroom, "We talk about issues big and small, like how to respectfully ask someone to stop poking you with a pencil to why there is hate in the world and where it came from," she says. Over the years, she has been part of planting and building a permaculture garden and a monarch garden in their community garden, creating a senior citizen/second grader pen pal program, and taking kids on weekend field trips.
Rachel's job doesn't end in the classroom, and neither does what she loves about it. "Being part of a community is one of my most favorite things," she says. "Teaching siblings, watching my first class of students become high schoolers, seeing parents and teachers and students out and about on weekends, hanging out with other teachers on Friday afternoons after an exhausting week."
"It's hard to balance all of the balls you are expected to juggle as a teacher," she says. "But I am so fortunate to be a part of a vibrant learning community." The work Rachel puts into her job has not gone unnoticed. In 2017, she was one of just eight educators statewide to receive the prestigious Virginia Lottery Super Teacher Award.
"Teachers that challenged me to be better and also appreciated me for who I was are the teachers I look back on and really appreciate," she says. "And that includes so, so many teachers at Maggie Walker." As she looks at the year ahead, she reflects that after a difficult summer in Charlottesville, she's particularly looking forward to "digging deeper with my fourth graders this year when it comes to discussing hard topics." She adds, "We are going to read so many great books together! I am also looking forward to continuing the pen pal program and getting out into the garden as much as possible. And who knows, something amazing might happen that is yet to even be on the horizon!"

Liverpool favourites to complete signing of Bundesliga winger
Liverpool are reportedly still leading the race to sign winger Julian Brandt from Bayer Leverkusen at the end of the campaign.
The German is said to have a release clause of around £21.61m in his current contract but he has recently indicated that he would prefer to remain with Leverkusen beyond the summer.
However, this has not ceased the speculation regarding his future and according to The Mirror, the Reds are still said to be keen on signing the attacker ahead of the likes of Borussia Dortmund.
Bayer Leverkusen are currently occupying the fourth position heading into the final gameweek of their Bundesliga campaign and reports indicate that Brandt's sale may be dependent on whether the club make the Champions League or not.
The Germany international has contributed six goals and a further 11 assists from 32 league appearances this term. He has two years remaining on his current deal with the club.

The Sovereign has Spread to 119 Countries
My Take:
Marty: "We have 13 governments now who are already in default of their debt payments. There are more than 100 nations who are on the verge of a debt crisis. There is no solution is valued circles, other than mine, which calls for the complete revision of the debt system.
I fear that all we can do is protect ourselves. Nobody is willing to listen to me. When they will, it will be too late. Hence – the crash & burn becomes unavoidable. Nobody will scrap the system before it crashes. It is against human nature."

It was a good game in some ways. But let's dispense with the notion that it was a Cinderella, small school, "Hoosiers," David-n-Goliath kind of event. Butler was a top ten team for most of the year. They were, in fact, a good team (with a coach that looks like he is in high school. I wonder how hard it was to get time off from Algebra class, and if his parents got charged under the truancy statutes).
Of course, I am joking. He looks like a great coach.
And speaking of coaching, why in the world did Zoubek miss the last free throw on purpose? That was a horrible decision because it brought a loss into play (and it was way too close). If Zoubek makes that free throw, the best Butler can do is tie on a desperation heave. When he missed it, he gave them a possibility to win.
With less than two seconds, you might miss in order to get the clock started and leave Butler disorganized. Or if your Butler, down by two, you miss and try to get the put back to tie.
But you don't miss intentionally when you are up by two with that much time left, when you know the only shot they can get off is a three-pointer.
Coach K is easily one of the top basketball coaches in the world. He has a few national championships and a couple of gold medals from the Olympics.
I am a dumb shmuck sitting in a recliner.
But that was a boneheaded move, Coach K. Take my word for it. You almost lost.

What does it mean to own someone? What does it take to claim them? How do you feel afterwards?
In any relationship there are many firsts. The first time you hold hands, the first time you kiss, the first time you get fingered outside a busy restaurant (everyone does do that, right)?
Some firsts however, are more significant than others.
The first time I fucked Mat with my fingers, I felt I had made a claim on his body, but I knew there would be more. That first penetration of his flesh, simply raised awareness of what could be.
I had a virgin strap on. Unused on anyone, it was obvious to us both that I would eventually use it on his ass. That with it, his little boy's cunt would be mine to fuck. But even that was not enough. No, I needed to rape him with it. Taking control, for my own pleasure. He had to submit, even through pain, to my use of him. Nothing less would do. For either of us.
The moment finally came, unexpected, but feeling right. The strap on became an extension of myself in a very real way. I felt connected to him through it, more intensely than with any toy held in my hand. And I let myself go.
Mat took it well, as I had known he would. Still there was some pain, his hands clenched, and cries suppressed. I watched, I knew, but I didn't let that stop or frighten me. Most of all though, I loved.
Afterwards we held each other closely. Clinging together like shipwrecked sailors, while we considered what had happened, and felt the intensity of it.
This was a moment that mattered. A kind of virginity lost, and a new adventure begun.
It was the first time I had ever fucked his cunt.
It won't be the last.

Changing World, Changing Needs
In the 21st century, rapid changes are taking place all over the world – even in the economically underdeveloped countries under the wave of globalization and revolution in IT and communication technologies. The poverty standard of income devised in the historical past is no longer relevant under new conditions. People today are no longer subject to the same laws, customs and social order of the bygone era. Globalization and easy of connectivity is exposing the ultrahigh inequalities between the rich West and the poor East as well as the unjust world-order. People no longer want mere economic growth; they also aspire for equal opportunity, social justice and political freedom to influence the direction of development. Therefore, a comprehensive viewpoint is needed in order to understand poverty properly. It must be seen as a human situation deprived of many things other than income.
Low Income – The Traditional Concept of Poverty
Poverty is traditionally associated with lack of income – you don't expect a poor to have money. This is the traditional way to look at poverty still popular with most people. People are considered poor when they don't have enough income to obtain basic necessities of life – food, shelter, drinking water, education, medicines and so on. When poverty is seen from this subsistence perspective it is absolute poverty – a situation where the poor are struggling for survival.
According to the United Nations' 1995 World Summit in Copenhagen, "absolute poverty is a condition characterized by severe deprivation of basic human needs, including food, safe drinking water, sanitation facilities, health, shelter, education and information. It depends not only on income but also on access to services."
This gave rise to the concept of subsistence or absolute poverty line – people with income below it are poor; in fact, they are extremely poor. India's official poverty line is actually a subsistence poverty line.
The exploitative colonial powers had used such a poverty line definition to set bare minimum wages for their subjects so that they could get just sufficient food to replenish their energies in order to keep working. This is how the colonial countries like the UK laid the foundation for affluence in their own countries while reducing their subjects to bare survival and plundering their natural resources.
Currently, the Word Bank uses $1.25-a-day benchmark of "extreme poverty" and estimates that globally around 1 billion people are extremely poor.
Basic Needs Approach
Evolved in the 1970s, the basic needs approach revolves around listing most basic needs of people like food, shelter, clothing and other essentials of a household. Then it fixes the quantum of their minimum consumption requirements. It also considered services provided by the state or community such as safe water, sanitation, public transport, medical and education facilities etc. It, thus, established a basic framework for community development.
Of course, these minimum needs are defined by the 'experts' and the poor remain as mere passive recipients. However, it is attractive to policymakers due to ease of its implementation. It helped the international agencies make developmental plans.
While it is easier to restrict the poverty perspective to material and physical needs which can be planned easily by the government, it helps to remind that human lives can't be simplified to the level of policies that the government can plan.
Society can also Dictate "Necessities"
Clearly, people are not robotic creatures needing only replenishment of physical energy needed to work. They also have social demands which must be met in order to live a satisfactory life.
"By necessaries I understand not only the commodities which are indispensably necessary for the support of life, but whatever the custom of the country renders it indecent for creditable people, even the lowest order, to be without. . . . Custom . . . has rendered leather shoes a necessary of life in England. The poorest creditable person of either sex would be ashamed to appear in public without them." – Adam Smith in The Wealth of Nations
After all, people are social beings and are affected by the social opinions and processes. Therefore, poverty can't be seen in isolation and must necessarily be seen in the overall social context. It must be seen in relation with the society. This relative poverty moves in response to changing social environment and what earlier used to be luxuries can become necessities now. Living in society demands that one has to satisfy social obligations and expectations; not having the resources to do so mean one is living in deprivations – in poverty.
Relative Poverty
The philosophical foundation of relative poverty is provided by Karl Marx, "Our needs and enjoyments spring from society; we measure them, therefore by society and not by the objects of their satisfaction. Because they are of a social nature, they are of a relative nature."
As Peter Townsend, a leading authority on UK poverty, puts it: People are poor if they live with resources that are so seriously below those commanded by the average individual or family that they are, in effect, excluded from ordinary living patterns, customs and activities.
People are "relatively poor" when their average resources or average living standard falls below the society average. Relative poverty is also seen as inequality. It will be always present in any society, no matter how much it progresses. Certain sections of the society will always perform less than others, so relative poverty can never be eliminated. However, if the wealth distribution becomes more even it falls.
Moving to relative poverty is in fact a shift from the "needs" to "wants" – people are poor if they "want" to live like others but can't. Now the measure is "the deficit in the living standard", compared with the society average. The philosophy of relative poverty is common in the developed nations, since they have progressed beyond the point where people are no more struggling for basic survival needs.
Definition of Relative Poverty in Europe
"Relative poverty is when some people's way of life and income is so much worse than the general standard of living in the country or region in which they live that they struggle to live a normal life and to participate in ordinary economic, social and cultural activities." – European Anti Poverty Network (EAPN)
The EU's Relative Poverty Standard
"People falling below 60% of median income are considered to be at-risk-of poverty."
Capability Poverty
The capability approach of Amartya Sen puts people at the center and discusses development and poverty from people's perspective. It is perhaps the most comprehensive approach and expresses poverty in terms of deprivation of people's capabilities – referring to what they can or cannot do, can or cannot be. It sees income, resources and public facilities as mere means to achieve or expand human capabilities. In laymen's language, Sen's development approach aims to make people more capable in terms of their skills, physical and mental abilities – it is a kind of holistic approach.
Expanding capabilities increase well-being and shrinking capabilities decrease well-being. The set of capabilities needed to escape poverty is rather limited. The capability poverty is typically lack of capabilities related to satisfying basic needs of food, nutrition, health, shelter, etc. In this approach, expansion of people's capabilities is the prime goal: income, resources and facilities have no meaning unless they enhance human capabilities.
Consider this simple example: Having a cell phone can enable the capability of connectivity, but only if the person uses it properly. Mere ownership of the cell phone doesn't tell what the person can do with it; a blind and deaf person may not be able to use it. Therefore, the important point is not the possession of a commodity or its features, but the capability to use it.
Personal freedom to lead the life one values is the central theme of Sen's theory of development. Cultural and psychological aspects also affect people's capabilities, so they are also important considerations and account for individual differences.
As mentioned above, when Adam Smith argued that leather shoes became social necessity in order to avoid shame in the public, he was referring the capability of avoiding public shame. As societies get richer and richer, the list of commodities required to "avoid shame" also increase. Being poor in such societies mean lacking the capability to "avoid shame" because the poor lacks the capability to "afford" all those commodities. There is certainly a strong psychological component here because the "needs" are dictated by social customs (and people's degree of obeisance).
The Human Development (HD) Approach
It was developed in the 1980s when it was noted that handing over economic growth to market forces alone (free market economy) and curtailing the role of government in the economic activities led to increased poverty. It combines the elements of the basic needs and capability approaches and defines the human development as a process of enlarging people's choices. The most critical choices relate to leading a long and healthy life, to be educated and to enjoy a decent standard of living. Other choices include political freedom, guaranteed human rights and self-respect.
The HD idea revolves around the basic theme: "People are the real wealth of a nation." And the basic objective of development is to create an enabling environment for people to live long, healthy and creative life. It was stated in the first Human Development Report (HDR) published in 1990. This is a paradigm shift in developmental thinking: it puts the focus on people and makes them the target of development; incomes and resources are seen as means, not ends goals.
The HD approach offers several advantages: It goes beyond the basic needs of material, services and physical conditions to give importance to other aspects of life like freedom, environment and society. It simplifies the concept of capability approach to include "choices" and "freedom" and sees development as widening human choices. It is open ended, and considers everything that might affect human life, so that different societies can focus on what is important for them. Poverty is just the opposite – people with badly limited choices.
The HD approach has been attracting people who are seeking human-focused and humane alternatives to the usual "economic growth" as development. It also offers an alternate measure of development in the form of the human development index (HDI) which combines life expectancy, literacy and adjusted income. The HDI is an important milestone in efforts to measure human well-being in terms other than per capita GDP or income.
Since the first HDR in 1990, every year a different human development theme is picked up for the report and the global scenario is presented. These reports have greatly impacted the national policies and provide fresh perspective to look at poverty. It has brought into focus the importance of issues like lack of women empowerment and illiteracy, income inequalities, non-inclusive growth, social exclusion etc as major impediment to human development.
It paved the way to look at poverty from a multidimensional perspective. Thus, in 2010 a multidimensional poverty index (MPI) that analyses poverty through a set of 10 indicators was launched. It has been adopted as an effective policy-making tool by many countries around the world.
The Way Forward
Do we really need experts and poverty research in order to eradicate poverty? Why not ask the poor themselves. It would give perhaps the most useful perspective. They see themselves mostly as deprived, marginalized, excluded and vulnerable. They are people without much voice and choice. To be meaningful for them, the development process must empower them so that they come out of these disadvantages.
As professor Muhammad Yunus, the Bangladeshi Nobel laureate of 2006 and better known for the micro-credit movement, puts it "The poor themselves can create a poverty-free world… all we have to do is to free them from the chains that we have put around them."

The new drug shot down by the FDA , and the upcoming testosterone gel for women, currently in trials made headlines about this complex topic.
As every gyn knows, this is a daily concern for women. Are they sexy enough? Once they have a partner, how come they don't want to have sex as often as they once did? Why after 43 years of marriage, don't they want to have sex like the first year of marriage? Their partners complain, or have retreated into quiet resignation.
Research shows us that normal women have spontaneous sexual thought about 2-4 times a month. Comparing that with men, its no wonder that we are left to think we are abnormal. We are just different.It is rare that we are allowed to just be, and allow sexual thoughts to creep into our conciousness. We require sexual triggers to get us "in the mood" more often.
Men are like an on off switch.
If there is an opportunity for sex, they are ready. Women are like the control panel of a 747. A bit more complex. The link above is a good reference and explanation of female sexuality. The female sexual response cycle has been remade a number of times, since Master and Johnson's work in the 1950's. Orgasm used to be the height of female sexual response, and the goal of a sexual encounter. Since women are a bit more complex than men, it seems now that concept has backed off a bit to include the emotional connection women desire.
OK then, if that's the goal, and men want physical sex, then why don't we get it? Have more physical sex to get more emotional connection to your partner! Most women tell me it is not their idea to have sex, but once they get started, they respond. Rebuking a partner rarely gets him to be more connected to you.
OH MY! We may have hit this jackpot.
And now you know the secret to being in a couple.
Make sure your man knows the sun rises and sets in his pants,
and you will be a very happy woman.............:)

Why SmartSuite Attendance Software is the Right Attendance Software for your Organization ?
SmartSuite Time Attendance Software is a web based attendance software which helps in monitoring employee work hours for the entire organization and the calculation of various important figures that are derived from employee work hours.
SmartSuite Time Attendance Software is an affordable software solution to record and track attendance of employees. Being easier to use and implement, SmartSuite Time Attendance System calculates the exact time each worker per day or for a selected period of time and thus monitors the actual work done against the expected work. Additionally, it provides detailed insight into times present and absent at work, and the reasons for their absence (leave, sickness, absent, work away, etc.).
Now, most organizations still prefer to stick with the same outdated attendance tracking methods. It is highly likely for an organization to face issues with an old mechanical punch clock, hand-written time sheets or even an out-dated and unwieldy Excel Spreadsheet. Mistakes are made in calculating overtime, mistakes are made in adding up, and even more time is lost back-tracking and chasing up information you don't have.

I need customizations with SmartSuite-M Mobile Attendance Software? Is it possible to have the same? Can I have different working modules with the same?
We have been receiving many similar inquiries from last few days. We would again like to let you know that SmartSuite-M is the mobile version of the smartsuite software. We aren't providing anything different or special with the mobile version of the software. The modules seen in the SmartSuite-M mobile attendance app is same as those in the SmartSuite Software, the web based attendance software. The app synchronizes itself with the pc version of the smartsuite software and on the basis of the synchronization, the changes are finally reflected in the main software.
Prior to any further customization in the mobile attendance app, it is required to have those customizations first with the main attendance software, smartsuite software for PC. Any addition or change which is implemented with the pc version of the smartsuite software makes it possible for the developers to implement the same in the mobile version of the software. It isn't possible to provide anything or any feature extra in the mobile application except those which you see with the main software.
Any further scope for customization with the mobile attendance application is presently ruled out. But still, our team has been busy working out on this limitation and hopefully, it should become possible to provide things as required in the times to come. For the time being, our mobile attendance app is available with limited features or say modules which anyone can download and test it on the supported android platform.

Understanding SmartSuite Software Pricing and Sales Policy
SmartSuite Software is available under two licenses – free demo license and paid license. The free demo license is available free to download for users to try out and see before paid license in purchased. As you must have already seen on our website, the demo license is limited to few users, 5 users/employees to be more specific. Additional users are not supported in the demo version. In case, if you need support for more users in the software you need to purchase the paid version of the software which is similar to the demo version but has a support for more/required number of users/employees.
The paid licensed version of the SmartSuite Software is available under varied pricing. The pricing is based on the number of users/employees which again is further categorized into various slabs (total number of users) – 100, 200, 250, 500, 1000, 2000, 3000, etc… The minimum purchase license starts from 100 users which if required can also be considered to 50 users finally. We do not sell software license below that number of users. Also, the pricing is the standard pricing of the software excluding charges for installation, implementation and Taxes. Separate charges are made for installation and implementation of the software. Also, in case if any further customization is required in the software, additional charges are made for the same. No charges are levied for minor customizations. It may take a week to months to provide customizations as required.
Also, there have been occasional inquiries made for software to have a support for unlimited users/employees. Unlimited users license is generally preferred by those individuals/companies wish to re-engineer our product as per their requirement so that they can finally use it for themselves or resell it in the market. We would like to let you know that we do not allow reselling of our software. Instead, we sell it directly to the end users.

Having Oracle as Backened Database with SmartSuite Software
SmartSuite Software is a web based application with an open source structure. It employs PHP as the core technology behind its development. To power its database needs, it uses one of the world's most popular database management system, MySQL. MySQL is a popular choice of database for use in web applications, and is a central component of the widely used LAMP web application software stack— LAMP is an acronym for "Linux, Apache, MySQL, Perl/PHP/Python".
Now, apart from the support for MySql databases, we also provide support for other databases like those in Oracle and MSSQL. Very recently, we had an inquiry from someone asking for the software but with the database backened in Oracle. To all those who have been looking for the same with our software, we are always ready to provide it as desired. There is absolutely no issue with the database part. Be it MySql, MSSQL or Oracle, the software is supported with any database. You can have our software as it is but if you feel like having backened in Oracle or any other database system then you can let us know. We shall complete all customizations and make it available to you in a given time.
Currently, we are able to provide database migration without any problem. The available modules in the software will be same as what we have in the software at present. For any further customization in the software, additional charges will be made. There are no charges for minor customization.
Please let us know if you have any queries related to database migration. You can mail it here – email@example.com
Contract Labor Management System (CLMS) Press Release in SafeSecure Magazine
Does SmartSuite Software come with Integrated Payroll System ?
SmartSuite Software does have everything what people seek to see in a typical attendance software. We have been making sure that it turns out to be the best online attendance management system or say, human resource management system for your organization. Having been equipped with all necessary HR modules, smartsuite is most likely to fulfill your needs for a robust online attendance management system. But inspite of being feature rich, smartsuite isn't free from limitation.
The biggest limitation which this software has is the absence of payroll management system. Yes..we don't have it yet. An integrated payroll management system in the smartsuite software, is what people have been inquiring to us in recent times. We have been saying "NO" to most of them while there have been few cases where we have been finding alternative for the same. This is mostly because we have felt that organizations do really need it. As an alternative to a typical payroll module in the attendance software, we have been requesting our clients to go for an integration with their existing payroll application which they must be using or have any plan to purchase in the near future.
The integration enables any desktop/web based payroll applications to be easily integrated with our smartsuite software which then can be used to generate payroll for the employees on the basis of attendance records. We have been offering such solutions to our clients in recent times and most of the times they have agreed to go for the same and the best of all, it has really worked out well. Most of the third party payroll applications have been integrated with our attendance software.
So for those who seem to be worried about the payroll and related requirements, you must be glad to know that we now have been able to solve this problem and no longer, it is compulsory to have an integrated payroll module in the attendance software. Though still we have decided to come up with the same in the near future. Future releases of smartsuite software is likely to have an integrated payroll system. We are working on it and hopefully, we shall have it very soon in our attendance software.

Yeah that's true. Also because my chem teacher marks really hard for written response. People last year were telling me chem SL was really easy, but I think it's because they were in the old curriculum. Being in the old curriculum I must agree, since I am really not the smartest when it comes to Chem and i'm doing pretty good in my course. And I think it is always better for the teachers to mark as harsh as possible, because it forces you to get used to the style of answering questions quite early even if it is a pain.
I heard that alot of the Chemistry HL course was moved down to the SL course for the ones taking exams in 2016 and onwards
German HL is being tough on me, simply because no matter what I write it either is not enough for the teacher or not good enough.. languages are always tricky because it seems to depend on the mood of the teacher and if they like your style of writing.
Word count
IctEcon posted a topic in Extended EssaySo I am writing my extended essay for Computer Science, and I know there is a regulation that for code within the essay, each line counts as 2 words. I also used screenshots of code. My question is, do these screenshots even count as words? If they do, does the 2 words per line apply for this? Thanks in advance
how to become more respected at school?
IctEcon replied to Kamen rider baron's topic in General DiscussionI'm a senior now and I don't know if I would say I'm respected or not. I'm in the "nerdy" group at our school, none of us like partying so that does not seem to be an issue. I'm just generally happy that I am friends with these people, and it doesn't matter if I get invited to parties or not (not that there was time to go anyways) Just stay true to yourself, and yes not everyone will like you, but that is just tough luck for them
Maths SL or Maths Studies for econ
IctEcon replied to kiko's topic in Mathematicsdepends where you want to apply, all good universities in the UK want math HL
IctEcon replied to georgia-a's topic in Theory of Knowledgeto be quite honest, as i'm doing my IB in May 2015 I am nervous, as I - as of now- do not have a clue of what to do with these questions at all. It might just be the stress getting to me, so we'll see how it goes the next few days.
Economics with Math Sl, where?all the good universities in the UK i know, require you to have HL since economics tends to be quite mathy from what i heard. If you are not confident in math and do not have the time to invest into it, I would not recommend it, especially talking from experience ( 2 students in my class aren't that confident and one is basically failing but the other is getting like 70-85% in school exams) It really depends how much time you have and how willing you are to give that time up to do math revision. I'm entering my second year right now, and it's really not a subject to be taken lightly. BUT basically everyone can make it, when they have dedication, determination, and loads and loads of practice I hope this helps
Narrowing my EE Research Question
IctEcon replied to kianaalcala's topic in Extended EssayI don't believe they will be upset with long research questions, as long as you get it focused and to the point. You cannot really put a focused research question into a short one (haven't ever seen someone successfully do that). Mine is something like this: To what extent is Secrity Code Analysis effective in preventing SQL injections done with user input?
If you were to change one thing about the IB, what would you change?Not having CAS. Some schools only require students to have 1 project per aspect, but mine is expecting us to have continious projects throughout the 2 years and have atleast 15, strictly following all the aims (global importance, working with others, etc.). It's a real pain to get everything signed and so on...
How many IB students are there in your class.
IctEcon replied to Black Bird Lockheed's topic in General IB DiscussionIB2 is about 80 students and about 90 in IB1 but with popular courses (like Chem SL) it can get really crowded and quite annoying with so many people together
Stereotype that you help negate
IctEcon replied to Nikita K's topic in Games and JokesI'm a girl who hates shopping and nearly everything about fashion, interested in gaming and in love with programming and math. I am german and I dislike beer and do not walk around in a "dirndl".
Oxford Economics and Managementthankyou very much must have overlooked it
Oxford Economics and ManagementSo, I am planning on applying to Oxford (god forbid I get my hopes up, I'm basically not expecting anything but just gonna give it a shot and see what happens, might as well try and fail than never try at all). Ofcourse I need to achieve all the grades, but for applying it would really help (and ofcourse i'm interested) in reading some books on these 2 topics. Does anyone have any recommendations for economis or management books? I heard freakonomics was supposed to be pretty good.
done From the questions, it sounds quite interesting good luck

Paweł Swianiewicz, Adam Gendźwiłł, Julita Łukomska, Anna Kurniewicz. Wielkość gmin i powiatów a sprawność ich funkcjonowania. Hipotezy wielkoludów i liliptów. – Warszawa : Wydawnictwo Naukowe SCHOLAR, 2016. – 191 p.
The dispute which concerns the size of municipalities and administrative division of countries is constantly current in academic debate and also in political actions. These issues are especially important for areas which have limited experience and practice of democracy and self government. An example of this type of area is Poland, where self government has de facto a short history, therefore a lot of global trends and solution in this issue are implemented with delays. The most significant change in Poland was the public administration reform in 1999 which reduced the number of provinces (voivodships) and restored counties. After implementation of these reforms there were a lot of discussion of scientists and politicians about further reducing of number of voivodeship. Currently an important issue is the separation of the area of Warsaw city from the Mazovia voivodeship. The main imperfection of previous considerations and research on this issue in Poland is the conviction about some well-worn myths such as statement, that small municipalities perform their tasks much better than bigger units. The book of Paweł Swianiewicz, Adam Gendźwiłł, Julita Łukomska and Anna Kurniewicz is noteworthy and innovatory attempt of explanation of the relationship between the effectiveness of functioning of municipalities and their size.
