An SME is a small or medium sized organization which employs less than 250 people who tend to produce a revenue of less than 20 Million Euro. Such enterprises have to face a number of strategic as well as tactical challenges which cover up the cloud of cunning challenges. It faces challenges in terms of technology, communication, finances, human resources and marketing. Such enterprises also focus upon the relationship marketing too. Among the several challenges which a small or medium sized enterprise face, following are the few crucial ones which can adversely affect the working of an office, ultimately causing major losses to the business:
IOT (Internet of Things) Challenges:
Internet of things has been introduced as the cloud of automation which is progressing with each passing moment in order to bring ease as well as betterment to human lives. It's focus is upon the implantation of sensors through various software into the hardware for the production of objects or machinery which can be further used in order to interpret and exchange data all around. Such devices are used in enterprises in order to transfer data throughout the office. For the use and implementation of such devices, complete knowledge regarding them must be known by the working officials of an office so they can operate the machinery effectively. Apart from this, companies must have affordability to fix these machines in their setup. This would promote smooth as well as efficient running of a business in terms of transferring data in a secure way all around the office as well as to the external organizations.
With the advent of technology since the mid-17th century, the world has tilted towards the technological cloud from the scientific one, striving to bring optimistic revolutions into the globe with each passing moment to escort ease and betterment into the human life. "Currency" is one of the biggest innovations introduced into the world after dealing with barter systems and issues encountered by several businessmen, government officials and economists. Hence, a system of currency was developed in order to ensure the terms of trade in a convenient manner where one can obtain a good or a service at the expense of value or currency it owns. Currency is considered to be the most commonly used medium of exchange in order to acquire everything existing around the globe in this present age of the contemporary world. Currency encapsulates further terminologies such as physical currency and cryptocurrency. Physical currency is the form of currency available in a physical state such as coins and bank notes or liquid asset. Money is considered to be the most liquid form of assets one can have, while cryptocurrency is the form of virtual currency present in an antedate form that operates through cryptography by displaying attributes similar to that of physical currency. The currency is generated as well as monitored by its developers while only provided to a particular group known as a virtual group. The currency proves to be an efficient use in terms of progressing larger transactions easily and instantly without any hindrances.
Budgeting is an important task in the field of running a business efficiently. It allows the most favorable allotment of all finances and resources present in an office a way to minimize cost and maximize profits. An SME faces challenges in designing a systematic budget, therefore accounting experts should be appointed in order to fulfill this purpose. Several bookkeeping softwares are available in order to perform budgeting tasks in a well-mannered way.
Final Note
SMEs are enterprises which face strategic challenges which can be overcome smartly by appointing an intellectual group of people who can work efficiently to produce high profits. They can be further reinvested in order to generate higher benefits. Such enterprises might face several challenges, but the most major and effective ones are related to the technological cloud which can then be solved through hiring of an educated and intellectual staff.

This post is part of a special National Geographic news series on global water issues.
Peter Gleick, one of the most visible and respected advocates for smart water use, has made a well-researched and timely first foray into popular nonfiction with his new book, Bottled and Sold: The Story Behind Our Obsession with Bottled Water.
(Read a Q&A with Peter Gleick about the book.)
Gleick, president of the Pacific Institute for Studies in Development, Environment, and Security in Oakland, California, and a 2003 recipient of a MacArthur "genius" grant, exposes the uncomfortable reality of Americans' love affair with bottled water. Although the United States is blessed with some of the world's finest water infrastructure, he points out, we have been falsely led to believe that bottled water is better than what comes out of the tap. The resulting business not only has significant environmental costs, but has also led many people to fritter away money on something that's widely available and almost free.
Gleick culls first-rate anecdotes–some personal, some historical–to illuminate the more perplexing and revealing twists behind the bottled-water industry's rapid growth. He looks at our uneven relationship with tap water and the bottled water industry's maneuvering to tap into our fears. He explores the marketing of bottled water, including, for instance, Madonna's bizarre infatuation with Kabbalah water, said to be "charged with positive energy so that it has healing powers," according to the Kabbalah Centre of Los Angeles. Gleick finds publicity for these "mystically infused water" products and others based on pseudoscience both amusing and disturbing. He also tours the new realms of "luxury water," in which water bars, tastings, and water sommeliers attempt to seduce the restless palates of the rich.
Despite the idyllic images of mountains and bubbling streams seen on many bottles of water, Gleick points out that almost half of the water sold in bottles originates from a municipal water system. And bottled water is often no cleaner than tap water. With a bit of detective work and liberal use of the federal Freedom of Information Act, Gleick finds that there have been a hundred recalls of bottled water since 1990, but that only two-thirds of them were ever made public. Unlike rules for other food and beverage companies, the government does not require bottled water companies to recall unsafe products. The reasons for the recalls are surprising, entertaining, and in some cases frightening. Among a variety of unusual contaminants, crickets appeared in one product in Texas in 1994.
Despite considerable gloom about bottled water's ascendancy, Gleick highlights many spurts in opposition movements. For instance, bottled water sales peaked in 2008, and several U.S. cities and universities now ban sales.
(For more read Why Tap Water is Better Than Bottled Water.)
Although he maintains the detached stance of an impartial researcher for much of the book, on occasion Gleick's tone verges on shrill and we're reminded that he is an advocate. In one such passage, Gleick borrows language from a 1785 Massachusetts law to call bottled water companies "evilly disposed persons."
And in his conclusion, Gleick puts his advocate cap back on, offering hope for reaching what he calls the "Third Age of Water," which emphasizes responsible and sustainable use.

Do you wish that you had whiter teeth? Have you tried and been disappointed by the over-the-counter teeth whitening products, whitening toothpaste and those mail order kits? Well, here is a safe, easy, and successful way that you can REALLY whiten your teeth.
Using a professional teeth whitening system, you can get dramatic results in a matter of days by teeth bleaching at home. Some products use a pH neutral formula that has been approved by the FDA. Interested? Questions?
It is a whitening process that lightens the discolorations of enamel and dentin. The teeth whitening system uses a whitening gel that is retained in a custom-fitted appliance.
Clinical research has shown that using a properly formulated professional tooth whitening gel under the supervision of a dentist is safe for teeth and gums.
Results are usually seen in the first several days. Maximum results generally occur when the process is continued for 10 to 14 days (or nights).
The teeth will ALWAYS be lighter than they were. However, some patients may choose to touch-up periodically, one or two nights every six months. If you think that you might benefit from this tooth bleaching process, be sure to let your dentist know. He or she would be happy to assist in providing you with whiter teeth and a brighter smile!
Teeth whiteners are available everywhere these days: at the grocery store, the drug store, the beauty counter, even at mall kiosks. But if you want really white teeth, you need to know that not all teeth whitening products are the same.
Whitening toothpaste will brighten your smile a little bit. Whitening strips might lighten your teeth a little bit more. But they will never whiten teeth as quickly and effectively as professional teeth whitening.
The best teeth whitening products are only available to licensed dentists. Since it's possible to over-bleach teeth or irritate gums, only professionals can legally use the strongest tooth whiteners that contain relatively high levels of hydrogen peroxide. This sort of teeth whitener can whiten teeth by several shades in just one appointment.
Laser teeth whitening goes even one step further. In this method, laser light speeds the teeth bleaching process. The Zoom Chairside Whitening System is an example of this sort of instant whitening, but there are other systems that use lasers to activate the tooth bleaching agent.
If you have very badly stained teeth, it might take multiple tooth whitening sessions to give you your whitest smile. While most tooth whitening can lighten yellow teeth that have been stained by coffee, tea, or smoking, some stains are harder to remove. For example, some medications can cause stains deep within teeth that even the best teeth whitener cannot remove. Patients with intrinsic stains like that may opt for teeth veneers instead, since dental veneers let you make your teeth as white as you want.

In the immediate postpartum women that have had fluids during labour often find themselves swollen and retaining that fluid. Their breasts can become extra, extra-large and all their tissues seem congested and full. Our bodies will resolve this eventually but the remedy – Apis 200C will push that process along, asking the body to sweat and pee out all the excess fluid. This may help some little babes latch with less effort and allow mammas access to their regular shoes!
Once that hurdle is jumped hydration is a very important aspect of postpartum care. This is one place that partners can definitely help. Offering water, keeping supplies of good quality drinks on hand, serving foods with high water components are all helpful ways of keeping the fluid balanced in a nursing mother.
Dehydration in a nursing mother can look like:
- low energy
- flat emotions
- headaches
- mastitis
- weepy
- small amount of urine for the amount of fluid going in – possibility of urinary tract infections
- desire for carbonated drinks – especially carbonated water
- milk supply can ultimately be affected
Considering that every system in our bodies work on or with water – it is a vital piece to pay attention to.
If you do feel dehydrated – take Phosphoric Acid 200C – once a day for three days.
Make up some natural labourade or drink Gatorade cut with water.
Make sure every time you sit down to nurse you have an extra-large glass of water by your side.
Minimize the amount of coffee, tea and pop that you consume as these drinks will further dehydration.
If you have more specific questions or require homeopathic guidance please contact via email – I do offer on-line support.

I was trying to find a good distribution of MinGW-w64 under Windows (32bit and 64bit). I think TDM64 seems to be quite good now.
Website and download: http://tdm-gcc.tdragon.net/
Special features:
1) It runs under 32bit (x86) and 64bit Windows (x64)
2) It is multilib enabled, which means that it can produce both 32bit and 64bit binary. The default is 64bit.
3) It is a native 64bit compiler, at least under Windows x64.
4) Easy to be installed -- it has an installer.

I will make it so....hmm, make it so. That's got

Recently our sister Barbara who lives in our Mum's old home in Tauranga announced she would be completely redecorating the house. All flooring was to be replaced. I asked her if we could have the carpet out of the lounge for our Studio (aka Garage).
On Tuesday we travelled over to Tauranga to pick up the carpet. We found that we had scored not only the carpet but lovely spongy underlay too. It was a challenge to get it all in the car.
Thursday we pulled the carpet out onto the cobblestones. Trimmed it to size and shampooed it.
It's a very pretty Axminster style carpet. It was probably the only brand spanking new carpet our Mother ever had.
We have installed it (with a little help from Debbie and Rochelle) and it looks very nice. A bit of sheer luxury in our Studio.
We are thinking Mum would be very pleased that we have rescued a bit of her lovely carpet.

With each released silhouette, P-Rod's signature kicks from Nike SB continue to one-up themselves. And with the fifth edition set to drop in August, we can surely expect a flurry of fresh schemes and colorways. The fifth incarnation is slimmed down to V-Rod proportions, and switches over to the Lunarlon cushioning which made its SB debut in the Eric Koston 1. Prepped to be a part of his Spring 2012 collection is this "Matte Silver" go which features a suede upper mixed with mesh lining. Better be on the lookout for these.

Choosing Bathroom Renovation Materials to Suit Your Needs
Picking bathroom renovation materials is just as important as picking a style and fixtures for your remodelling. The materials can alter the entire mood of the room, the style, and the feeling you get when you enter that space.
First and foremost, you should have your renovation plan down. By knowing what you are remodelling and what you are purchasing, you minimize the chances of a $10,000 project becoming a $30,000 project. Little details like light fixtures, testing paint colour before purchasing a large quantity, cabinet knobs and tiling can all be planned beforehand. This most definitely includes your bathtubs, bathroom vanities, mirrors and other bathroom accessories.
You should also make sure you have a clear vision of the mood you want to feel when you enter the space. Do you want it to feel bright, open and minimal? Do you want it to feel traditional, with rustic touches? Or maybe you want to go a funkier route and have some more colour incorporated. Materials like marble for flooring and countertops can add a clean, modern look to a bathroom, but depending on the colour and fine-tuning, can also incorporate beautifully into a more traditionally designed space.
Bathroom Renovations Materials and Their Benefits
Stone (marble, granite, limestone) – increases profit value, stays cool, and really easy to clean. Stone materials also last a lifetime – they are an investment that will last you!
Ceramic – comes in a variety of colours, is much cheaper than stone, and comes in a wider variety of colour options and customization options. Ceramic also resists fire and moisture.
Porcelain – Porcelain resists water, and is super easy to maintain. It is very resistant to scratches and can be customized to mimic the look of stone for a cheaper option than the real thing.
Bathrooms are high traffic areas, and are vulnerable to the most dirt and grime, similar to the kitchen. You want moisture-proof materials that are high-traffic-friendly, easy to clean, non-porous and and resistant to dulling and scratching.
Speak to our experts if you have questions regarding choosing the best bathroom renovation materials for your sinks, vanities and bathtubs. Our team can inform you on what materials perform best for your specific needs, how to maintain and clean them so that they will last you a long time, and which options suit your specified budget. Feel free to contact us if you have any questions, or drop by the store to speak to a friendly expert!

FANGORIA caught up with Robert Englund a couple of weeks back at San Diego Comic Con and got the scoop from him exclusively on his new post-FREDDY VS. JASON project, THE LAST HORROR PICTURE SHOW (first mentioned on Fangoria.com HERE) to be directed by Gary Jones off a script from Jones and the original Leatherface, Gunnar Hansen.
'It's like BLAIR WITCH meets the source material for TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE,' Englund enthuses. 'It's a great script. It's about snotty Texas film students ? overweight, Kevin Smith slacker-types from Austin go out doing their documentary about these guys that were the source material for TEXAS CHAINSAW MASSACRE and are using not the original locations, but sites specific to the original crimes. The original perpetrators are so angry that they never got a piece of the action that they kidnap these film students and make them make a movie. They've written a script! They're Hollywood wannabes and it's this great black comedy. It's like NEW NIGHTMARE meets BLAIR WITCH meets I don't know!'
With Hansen on board and that kind of plot, one would expect that Leatherface might make something of an appearance, but in LAST HORROR PICTURE show, it's a bit skewed. 'It's wonderful, but it's not really Leatherface and the gang, but they're a lot like them ? just real,' jokes Englund. 'The great in-joke is that they're all wannabe auteurs now. They're talking misc-en-scene and all of that. You can imagine Leatherface with a clapboard - that's an image ? being ordered around and then not knowing how to do it, hurting himself and getting really mad!'
Englund, who stays busy almost year-round, has three projects coming ? LAST HORROR PICTURE SHOW, the TWO THOUSAND MANIACS remake being helmed by Tim Sullivan and a role in the upcoming V revival on NBC where Englund will be reprising his role of the vegetarian alien, Willie. 'I don't have a date on this, but I can't do all three of those projects!' exclaims Englund. 'I can, but [someone's] going to have to wait for me. I guess V is going to be later, so I might be able to knock off one of these this year. V is definitely 2004.'

VOTD: The 25 Greatest Unscripted Scenes In Films
Posted on Monday, August 15th, 2011 by Russ Fischer
There's a lot of lore and misunderstanding with respect to what 'improvising' means with respect to filmmaking. I think there are some who take 'improvised' to mean that there is no script, or that actors go completely off-book when shooting a scene. And while there are a few directors who do shoot films like that — very few — most of the time improvisation on film means that an actor comes up with a new line or action in the context of a scripted scene.
Here's a video that compiles twenty-five of the most influential unscripted moments in film. Some of these are things that weren't in the script, but created on set between takes (supposedly Bogie's "here's looking at you, kid" line from Casablanca is one of those) and some are genuine spur of the moment creations.

PETRONAS Yamaha SRT head to San Marino GP with perfect preparation2019-09-10 09:49
Fabio Quartararo and Franco Morbidelli are heading into this weekend's Gran Premio di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini hoping for a strong start to the weekend, after the PETRONAS Yamaha Sepang Racing Team duo ended a pre-race test at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli two weeks ago in first and third respectively.
Topping the test at Misano by nearly half a second a fortnight ago, Quartararo goes into the weekend bursting with confidence and ready to make his mark in Sunday's race. Unfortunately failing to finish last time out at Silverstone, he's not only planning on making amends in Misano but knows that he's got the pace and the outright speed to challenge for the podium again.
Morbidelli is also going into his home race confident that he can deliver a strong result. Using the test to resolve some of the small niggles with his set-up he had at Silverstone last time out, he knows that with a more comfortable feeling from his bike he too can be on track for one of his best results of the season so far as he lines up for what will be his 100th Grand Prix race.
Action gets underway at the Misano World Circuit Marco Simoncelli on Friday 13th September with free practice at 0955 local time (1555 Malaysian time), ahead of Sunday 15th September's San Marino Grand Prix.

"Misano is a very special track for me, because it's my real home race. I can see the track from my house, I train a lot at it and I really like riding it. There are always a lot of my friends and family who come to the race, and it's always good to have them to help you relax or get you pumped-up at the right moment. It's really positive to head there off the back of two great test days at Misano. We're well-placed for a strong result after the work we did on the bike's set-up, but we will see what level of grip and what track conditions we find this weekend. We can still improve in the fast corners like turns three and 11, so our set-up isn't quite 100% ready to race just yet. We have plenty of time in practice and we know what we want to improve, so we're hoping for a productive Friday to get us where we want to be."
"I think we have a good set-up with the bike after completing more than 150 laps in the Misano test so I'm confident that we can be strong from FP1. It was really beneficial to get those two days testing in advance of the race; it's one of the first times I've been able to do that mid-season. We've already got very good pace and we know that we're very strong in qualifying, so if we can just improve our race pace a little bit then I know we can be really well prepared for the final laps of the race. The circuit is pretty small, but it's got a bit of everything which is good for us and our bike."

shoes,wraps,neckaces,handbags. Think about what you already own that has a little zip from beadwork. Skip head-to-toe glitz and go with accent pieces. Wear necklaces grouped together,crystal bracelets in jewel tones,or beaded mules, just make sure the outfit it accents is simple enough to show off your beaded wonders. Feeling crafty? make it yourself with the beadwork guide.
All things glittery are making a come back as disigners and stars take a shine to the festive look, so look in the far recesses of your closet for those neglected lurex (shimmery flecks of metallic) or lame pieces.gold is n1 color, with bronze and platinum metallics noy far behind.
Wear a lurex shell under a black jacket for a polished corporate look.try a sleeveless cowl neck with leather pants.pair a slim shimmering sweater with velvet drawstring pants.
Even if you only have five minutes to transform yourself into a goddess, you can use makeup you already own. Jush red lips,smoky eyes and shimmery face powder are three quick fixes.take a little more time and really accent every lash with mascara and apply flawless foundation with sponge.

FARGO - Sen. John Hoeven, R-N.D., briefed North Dakota auto dealers on federal efforts to resolve trade disputes during a meeting with The Automobile Dealers Association of North Dakota on Monday, Sept. 10.
Those dealers hope U.S. negotiations will achieve fair trade without having to impose tariffs on imported cars and trucks.
The U.S. is in the midst of talks to renegotiate the North American Free Trade Agreement, commonly called NAFTA, and Trump has threatened to impose tariffs on cars from European Union nations. The unresolved trade disputes have created a sense of uncertainty as auto dealers await the outcome.
"Nobody knows what's going to happen on tariffs," said Dan Wilson, a Fargo auto dealer executive who serves on the board of the National Automobile Dealers Association. "NADA is neutral on that."
The national association doesn't want to see tariffs, but it is supporting the administration as it exerts pressure on trading partners to achieve more favorable trade, said Wilson, who is a partner, chief financial officer and vice president of Corwin Automotive Group.
"That's a huge issue for everyone in this room," Wilson told the group of auto dealers who gathered for Hoeven's briefing. Because of extensive global supply chains, no cars are made solely in America now, he said.
Hoeven told the auto dealers, who were meeting at the downtown Radisson, that the Trump administration is trying to level the playing field with other trading nations.
"There are abuses out there, there's no question about it, and China is the biggest abuser," Hoeven said, citing that country's flouting of copyright laws as an example. "Of course, it's tough in the short term."
Hoeven said he is optimistic that a deal to replace NAFTA can be struck this fall. "The negotiations are going very well with Mexico," he said. "There is pressure on Canada to come to the table."
To adjust to changing conditions, Trump wants trade deals that must be renegotiated every five years, Hoeven said.
Although new deals with Mexico and Canada are possible this fall, "China is a longer-term proposition," Hoeven said.
During questions and comments following Hoeven's talk, dealers said a 20-percent tariff on imported motor vehicles, if imposed, would pose a "significant challenge" to dealers because many parts for domestic autos are manufactured abroad.
"The auto industry has become globally integrated," one dealer representative told Hoeven. For his part, Hoeven said he understands such concerns and said the administration wants to apply strong pressure on foreign countries, but does not want to impose tariffs.
After Hoeven's talk, Christian Kostelecky, board chairman of the Automobile Dealers Association of North Dakota, said in an interview that he was reassured by the senator's comments. "It seems like there's a path" toward resolution, he said.
"Ultimately nobody likes tariffs," Wilson said in an interview. "Everybody wants fair trade. We wouldn't even venture to guess what a tariff could do."
There are 96 franchised auto and truck dealerships in North Dakota.
