Account Documents represent each of the basic account types detailed in the Chart of Accounts. For example you will have Balance Sheet Accounts such as Bank, Fixed Assets, Equity etc. and Profit and Loss Accounts such as Income, Expense and Cost Of Goods Sold.
When you create Transactional Documents, such as Sales Invoices or Bills, the associated Line Items post their respective values to Accounts as defined in the Item’s Accounting tab.
The Account Document allows you to view these transactions between a pre-specified or custom date range. This allows you to keep track of all sales and purchasing activity.
All account postings from Transactional Documents conform to the Double Entry Bookkeeping methodology.
New accounts are basically the same regardless of the type of account, except for subtle differences in the various different types, which will be indicated below.
From the Explorer click Accounts→Chart of Accounts.
This displays the Chart of Accounts.
This displays the ‘Create a New Account‘ page.
From here click on the type of account you wish to create.
The associated new Account Document will be displayed (as shown below).
When creating a new Account certain common details need to be completed.
See the Equity Account page example below.
The name of the Account. The Account name is mandatory and has to be unique.
This is an optional unique number associated with the Account. The numbers are primarily used by accountants to categorize the different types of account. The typical number ranges are shown below.
You can specify a Parent Account here (which must be of the same account type). This allows you to group related accounts together within the Chart of Accounts. For example you may have expense accounts Gas and Electric/Water with a parent account of Utilities. Within the accounting reports this allows you to see at a glance the totals for Utilities, as well as for the constituent sub-accounts (as shown below).
If you are using multiple currencies specify the currency of the account here. See Working with Currencies.
Once the new account has been saved the currency cannot be changed.
If there is an initial balance for the account enter it here, together with the date on which the balance was effective.
Expense accounts have a few additional fields which control how they appear on Transactional Documents such as Expense Claims and Sales Invoices (see below).
Tick this box if you want the Expense to be available on Expense Claim Documents on the Line Item’s ‘Select an Expense‘ tab. See Entering Line Items.
Tick this box if the Expense is reimbursable i.e. you can charge a Customer for the Expense, on say a Sales Invoice. If the box is ticked it will be available on the Sales Document’s Line Item’s ‘Select Expense‘ tab. See Entering Line Items.
If the Expense is reimbursable then by default the amount you charge will be entered into the Expense Account as a negative value. If you wish to treat money from reimbursed expenses as Income (i.e. revenue), you can specify the associated Income Account in this drop-down. The default value of ‘None‘ indicates an Income Account will not be used.
The base currency (see below).
When mileage is entered onto an Expense Claim, the rate is then used to automatically calculate the correct amount to reimburse to the worker.
These accounts relate to their real world counterparts. Although they can be created from the New Account page, these accounts are better explained as part of Banking. See Working with Bank Accounts.
Once you have created your accounts, and specified the account mappings in your Items, then Transactional Documents such as Sales Invoices or Bills will automatically post transactions to the appropriate Accounts.
All Accounts can list the various transactions between a pre-specified or custom date range.
View the Account for which to see the transactions.
Or, Use the date fields to the right to specify a range.
Once listed the transactions can be seen in a pop-up new window by clicking their respective Ref # column, or bookmarked for future reference by clicking (below).
By default the Nominal Codes on Accounts are not visible. To display Nominal Codes, set the appropriate option on the the Accounts Configuration Document.
An Account can only be deleted if it contains no transactions. See Voiding and Deleting Documents.

The labor force is made up of the employed and the unemployed; people who are neither employed nor unemployed are not in the labor force (the labor participation rate does not count people who are not looking).
Underemployment measures whether the labor force is being fully utilized in terms of skills and experience: additionally counting highly skilled workers in low skill jobs and part-time workers that would prefer to be full-time. The official unemployment rates do not count underemployment.
The minimum wage is currently $7.25, increased from $5.15 in 2009, by an act of Congress.
The last increase took place in three stages over a period of years; another increase will require another act of Congress.
Some candidates want to increase it again now, and automatically increase it to keep up with inflation (known as "indexing").
President Obama has proposed (and by 2014, some states have already adopted) a new minimum wage of $10.10 per hour.
Pay Equity: In 2015, female full-time workers made only 79 cents for every dollar earned by men doing equivalent work, a gender wage gap of 21%. Pay equity may be affected by the segregation of jobs by gender: jobs predominantly done by women pay less on average than comparable jobs predominantly done by men. The gender gap widens further for minority women.
Card Check: refers to a unionization process where potential union members sign (or check off) a card indicating they would join the union. When a majority of workers have checked their cards, the union forms. Most Republicans argue that Card Check inappropriately replaces a secret ballot process, and is inherently coercive. Most Democrats argue that Card Check protects workers from corporate anti-union tactics during unionization efforts.
Right-to-Work: refers to a state law against requiring union membership. The opposite is a "union shop" (or "closed shop"), where employees are required to pay union dues as a condition for working. 22 states are "right-to-work" states (mostly in the South and West) and 28 are not. A "national right-to-work law" would abolish union shops, and convert them all to "open shops," where employees may join the union voluntarily but are not required.
$245 billion for Payroll tax cut extension (maintaining a reduction in the Social Security FICA deduction).
$65 billion for infrastructure construction.
The term "shovel ready" refers to the previous round of stimulus bills, which focused on projects which could start immediately.
“Job Creators” is the 2012 campaign’s term for business owners and other wealthy people who “create jobs.” Generally, conservatives refer to “job creators” as a euphemism for cutting taxes for the wealthy, based on the “trickle-down” theory that doing so will create jobs. Liberals use the term “the Top 1%” as an opposing euphemism, implying that the wealthiest top 1% should pay more taxes than the rest of the 99%.
Unemployment insurance is paid by all employees as "state UI taxes", at a rate of 0.8% of income for the first $7,000 of annual income.
As a result of the American Recovery and Reinvestment Act passed by Congress in February 2009 (known as "The Stimulus Bill"), many unemployed people can receive up to 99 weeks of unemployment benefits.
Normally, unemployment payments are taxable income; but the Stimulus Bill exempted the first $2,400 worth of unemployment income received during the 'tax year' of 2009 will be exempted from being considered as taxable income on the Federal level, when American taxpayers file their 2009 IRS tax return paperwork in early 2010.
Many candidates in 2011 push for extending unemployment benefits beyond 99 weeks, since 7 million people have maxed out (known as "99ers").
22 states in the US are right-to-work states. In the other 28, if a business is a union shop, you have to join the union if you want to work there. There is no federal right-to-work law; it's determined by each state.
H-1B Visas, a key issue in the immigration reform debate, refer to visas for "specialty occupations." Generally, H-1B visas are issued in the fields of science, technology, engineering, or other professional services. H-1B visa holders are non-residents but may apply for permanent green cards.
Gov. Scott Walker (R-WI) pushed a “union-busting” bill in early 2011, restricting collective bargaining rights of all public employees, including teachers. The bill passed, but large-scale protests led to a recall election in 2012. Gov. Walker survived the recall, and got re-elected in 2014. In July 2014, the Wisconsin Supreme Court upheld the law.
Morality: casinos are wrong because they prey on poorer people.
Economic: casinos earn tax revenue for the state and the gambling would take place anyway, somewhere else.
Employment: casinos create jobs during their construction, and create permanent jobs to operate the casino.
The U.S. agricultural sector faced strong foreign competition in a weakened global trade setting from the 1990s into the new millineum. The value of U.S. agricultural exports has been reduced, falling from a record of almost $60 billion in fiscal 1996 to $51 billion in 2000. Exports recovered to over $60 billion by 2004 and increased to $136 billion in 2011.
The annual Farm Bill provides for numerous subsidies to numerous classes of farmers. The Farm Bill is heavily supported by Senators from farm states.
Since 2000, the farm bill has cost taxpayers more than $168 billion per decade, using loans, price supports, and payments to protect family farmers from fluctuations of weather, price, and economic conditions. One of its controversial programs pays farmers NOT to grow crops -- to avoid over-supply which would drive down prices.
About 75% of farm subsidies go to the biggest 10% of farming companies, such as Archer-Daniels-Midland (ADM), a major employer in farm states.
Farm subsidies originated during the Great Depression in the 1930s, when Pres. Roosevelt initiated the Agricultural Adjustment Act. Its original intent was a temporary solution for the Dust Bowl crisis, but it was made permanent in 1949 and has been renewed for six decades since.
In 1996, the Freedom to Farm Act proposed removing price supports and letting the free market determine prices. But the farm lobby -- big agribusiness like ADM who contribute generously to congressional campaigns -- has stopped Congress from killing the subsidies.
The farm lobby primarily funds Republican Party candidates, but Democrats also support the farm bill because it contains food stamp funding. In 2013, Republicans attempted to separate food stamps from the farm bill but Pres. Obama threatened to veto any farm bill which did not include food stamps.

The downside of being a good listener is its really hard to find someone that wants to listen. I have a few close friends and I’m mostly the one that listens to their problems, stories, joys or just whatever and I’m good at that. I don’t have a problem with listening and I do it genuinely. But sometimes I hate it when I have a story to share and I don’t get the same undivided attention that I give out. Is it that hard? All I’m asking for is someone to listen, truly listen and even ask questions about what I’m saying. Don’t just impatiently wait your turn to chime in with what you’ve been wanting to say, because apparently its far more important. Or even worse is the, I’m listening to you but doing something else at the same time and only really hearing every 5th or 7th word. That is just pathetic. I must be asking for too much here.

Rite of passage is a ritual that serves to mark the movement and transformation of an individual from one social position to another. It usually involves ritual activities and teachings designed to strip individuals of their original roles and prepare them for new roles. Victor Turner identified three stages in the rite of passage. The first stage is the separation period. During this period, the ritual passenger leaves behind the symbols and practices of his or her previous position. The second stage is the transition period. At this stage, the ritual passenger is neither in the old life nor yet in the new one. This period is marked by rolelessness, ambiguity, and perceived danger. The last stage identified by Victor Turner is the reaggregation stage. Here, the ritual passenger is reintroduced into society in his or her new position.
One life experience I went through that changed my life was joining the military. Then, I didn’t know I was going through the rite of passage as identified by Turner. It started with me leaving my family, friends and the lifestyle I used to have behind (separation stage). Then I got to boot camp and all of a sudden I started hearing screams and yelling telling me not to do so many things. During this transitioning (not yet soldiers but no longer civilians) I was taught the lifestyle of a soldier. Then at the reaggregation stage for me, I graduated from basic training and got stationed back in my area, this time, as a member of the armed forces (A new person).

rite of passage is a ritual that serves to mark the movement and transformation of an individual from one social position to another. it usually involves ritual activities and teachings designed to strip individuals of their original roles and prepare them for new roles. victor turner identified three stages in the rite of passage. the first stage is the separation period. during this period, the ritual passenger leaves behind the symbols and practices of his or her previous position. the second stage is the transition period. at this stage, the ritual passenger is neither in the old life nor yet in the new one. this period is marked by rolelessness, ambiguity, and perceived danger. the last stage identified by victor turner is the reaggregation stage. here, the ritual passenger is reintroduced into society in his or her new position.
one life experience i went through that changed my life was joining the military. then, i didn’t know i was going through the rite of passage as identified by turner. it started with me leaving my family, friends and the lifestyle i used to have behind (separation stage). then i got to boot camp and all of a sudden i started hearing screams and yelling telling me not to do so many things. during this transitioning (not yet soldiers but no longer civilians) i was taught the lifestyle of a soldier. then at the reaggregation stage for me, i graduated from basic training and got stationed back in my area, this time, as a member of the armed forces (a new person).

With its combination of shapes, surfaces and colors, the interior is a significant part of the overall premium concept of a car. The feel of the car interior also determines the impression and physical well-being of the passengers. The pleasantly soft texture of the surfaces is usually achieved with a layer of PU foam between the carrier and the surface material. Especially in large components, this often means numerous layers of foam. And the components generally become heavier because more relining material has to be used.
„The thin-wall foaming method developed by DRÄXLMAIER has enabled components, like instrument panels, to be made with extremely thin-walled foam filling“, explained Dr. Isabella Schmiedel, who is responsible for Technology & Innovations Management and who also co-authored the article. That is mainly due to the fact that with that method – compared to classical back-foaming – minimum foam thicknesses are not needed. And there is no need for waterproofing in the peripheral areas or full surface support of the carrier.
„The different foam thicknesses also enable individual haptic profiles to be created. For example, flexible upholstery pads can be made in the component surface”, explained Klaus Mussack, interior specialist at DRÄXLMAIER, other application areas of thin-wall foaming. Because of its advantages, the method is already being used in series in three carlines.

The coolest thing about the trip had to be the fact that upon walking into the church, I realized that all of the windows inside had been designed by me. I worked as an artist for my parents stained glass studio and drew windows for so many churches that I had lost track of them all.
These windows were installed in 1986 after I drew them up and my brother created them and installed them. It was really cool seeing my work in the middle of nowhere.
This is the main window behind the altar and the most visually stunning. Along each side of the chapel there are a series of windows depicting different biblical stories/ideas. I took photos of all of them with my little camera and will upload them to Flickr after I get back to Houston.
Is there car theft on an island?
You designed stained glass windows? You are truly a Renaissance man.
That’s got to be the coolest thing to see your work after so long.

As a student, I don’t often get the opportunity to make pizza from scratch as I just don’t have the time to make the dough. Of course you could buy in bases or even just pop down to the local take away but the difference in quality is phenomenal! Not only is it far, far cheaper to make yourself, but you can make sure you have the toppings you want on it without having the faff of spending 10 minutes deciding what you want off the menu. This recipe does take time – there are no two ways about that however like all recipes with bread involved, you will have a couple of hours in the middle in which to do what you want.
I have only done this a couple of times at university because of the time constraints however homemade pizza is a good home recipe too – especially in the holidays. Be careful though as it is very easy to overeat these as they are just so delicious! I like to have mine with chilli, sweetcorn, chicken and I’m getting into onions too. Whilst personally, I am very much against pineapple on pizza, I do appreciate that for some people, it is a fantastic topping and the wonderful thing about this recipe is that you can make personal pizzas that don’t need sharing so no one can complain! I would always advise using precooked meats just in case as you don’t want to eat raw meat and get ill – especially if you have to study for exams.
This is a particularly good recipe for house meals as you can just make the pizzas larger and share them around and they are genuinely so much better than the ones you would buy on the way home from a night out. I love a good greasy take-out pizza however these can be far healthier – using low fat cheese or even cheeseless pizzas can be a good way of using up leftover vegetables and meats without too many calories.
The recipe I use includes a technique I have not yet covered on this blog – rubbing in. This is where you combine flour and fat in a way which keeps the fat from melting and makes sure the mixture is light and airy. Using the tips of your fingers, take a little of the mix in each hand and lift them above the bowl. Use you thumbs to brush the mix back out of your hands and into the bowl rubbing the fat into the flour as it falls through your fingers. Repeat this until the mixture resembles fine breadcrumbs. It may look like nothing is happening at the start but trust me, it will all come together in the end. Just remember, if you really can’t get a technique to work for you, YouTube it! I have learnt a lot of new techniques by watching videos because I find it far easier to understand when I can see what is going on.
The dough also freezes nicely so if you are cooking for two, the third portion can be popped in the freezer – just make sure to defrost it fully and let it warm up to room temperature before using – or it can be used to make a garlic bread (spread over butter, minced garlic and parsley if you have it) or doughballs! If you want to cook for 4 people, multiply the recipe by one and a half but don’t increase the yeast! Once sachet can be used for up to 750g of flour – it might take a little longer to rise but it will still have an amazing flavour.
If you are using passata, heat it in a pan and add a couple of cloves of minced garlic and a pinch of sugar.
Reduce it until the passata is thick and non-runny.
Make a well in the centre, pour the yeast, salt and sugar around the outside of the bowl at even intervals.
Pour in the water and oil and mix to combine.
Knead the dough until it is smooth and elastic, cover and leave to rise for about 2 hours or until it has doubled in size.
Turn the oven to gas mark 6 (200oC).
Pour out the dough and divide into portions.
Roll the dough out until it fits the pizza pan you are using or until it has a radius of about 10 inches.
Spread out the thickened passata onto the pizza bases leaving about half an inch around the outside. Alternatively, if you are using paste from a tube, squeeze it into a bowl and add some water to thin it out a bit so you can spread it over the pizzas.
Bake in the oven for 12-15 minutes until the cheese is bubbling and starting to brown.
This meal is so amazingly yummy, I wish I could have it more often but it isn’t economical. It is however, perfect for a special event like having friends over or a date night or even if you just deserve a treat!
Let me know if you try this at yourselves and pop a photo in the comments! I love seeing what you guys create at home.
See here for the last Cooking from Basics recipe – an amazing Mushroom and Chicken Pasta Bake or here if you fancy making some super fudgy, gooey Chocolate Brownies.
Have a good one and I’ll see you next week for my death by chocolate tart which is sinfully delicious looks like it’s been bought from a professional bakery!!!

Because for men, what you eat can be the difference between you looking and feeling like an anabolic action hero, or a catabolic cream puff.
Between you taking a hold of your life or merely watching life pass you by.
The difference between being looked up to or just being looked through.
Men, what you eat matters.
Which is why I wrote The Man Diet, which I’m offering you free here.
I’m tired of watching guys hand over the keys to their testosterone, the very thing that makes them men, simply because they don’t know what to eat, when to eat and why it matters.
And decided to change the way I eat.
Maybe you’re tired of it, too.
So today I want to help you eat like a man by giving you a taste of The Man Diet.
Here are 3 foundational tips to eat to boost your testosterone.
Which makes sense, doesn’t it?
But if you’re going to eat to boost your testosterone, you need to get a lot of fat into your diet.
Because studies have shown a direct correlation between the amount of fat men eat and the amount of testosterone we have.
See, testosterone is a lipid-based hormone, meaning that dietary fats need to be present in your body if you’re going to have testosterone flowing through your veins.
When you eat to boost your testosterone you need to eat plenty of saturated fats and monounsaturated fats (check out the list at the bottom of this section).
And you need to do your best to stay away from polyunsaturated fats.
But once the polyunsaturated fats are introduced, testosterone plummets.
So let me start you off with an easy list.
Eat: whole cage-free eggs, organic bacon, organic beef, grass-fed butter, blue cheese, avocado, olive oil, and brazil nuts.
Which will ruin your ability to build muscle, grow a beard that’s worth anyone’s time, and please your wife in bed, among many other benefits that come along with having testosterone.
This study shows that when carbohydrate intake was dropped by 30%, testosterone dropped with it.
Also, low carbohydrate diets increase your body’s cortisol levels (an enemy of testosterone) because your body needs carbohydrates to recover from a workout or any extended amounts of physical stress in general.
But just like fats, all carbohydrates aren’t created equal.
When you eat to boost your testosterone you want to fill your plate with plenty of gluten-free carbohydrates.
Gluten-free diets have been shown to increase testosterone.
And like you’d expect, that doesn’t include donuts, unless there’s a wizard out there that makes a gluten free donut that’s worth anyone’s time.
Again, I’ll make it easy for you to get started.
Eat: any kind of potato (sweet, russet, Idaho, etc.), raisins, wolfberries, blueberries, any and all green vegetables.
Those are the 3 foundational tips to eat to boost your testosterone levels.
It’s a good place to start you journey to better testosterone health and a higher quality of life as a result.
I also recommend that you grab your free copy of The Man Diet.
It’s got an in depth study of the tips I mentioned above, the top things you can do to boost your testosterone, what vitamins you need to take your testosterone to the next level and a ton more.

Washington state law does not require a probate case to be filed following death, regardless of whether the individual died with or without a Will (i.e. testate or intestate, respectively). Probate in Washington is entirely discretionary, meaning if a probate case is filed, it is because someone wants it to be filed, NOT because the law requires it.
Washington law does require that any last Will of a Washington resident be filed promptly following death (within 40 days of death at most). If a Washington resident died with a Will, then the Will is required to be filed with the Clerk’s Office of the Superior Court of the resident's county at death (e.g., Thurston County Superior Court) regardless of whether or not the estate will be probated.
