I started out by want to create a simple CSS grid. Eventually I decided to turn that into a CSS framework. Then I wrote about making the grid responsive. While these posts are all very relevant, I have decided that really, in the end all I want is a grid.
I probably should have looked at this definition before attempting to build a framework. It would have made me think about what is actually essential to every site.
Upon reflection, I've decided that I've entirely over-complicated my framework. I came to this conclusion when I was building what I hoped would serve as the demo page for the framework. I wanted a certain font, so I added that to the Framework. I wanted a navigation bar, so I added a .navbar component, with background colours and everything! The page was looking great, but luckily I realized that if I continued on this path, I was in big trouble. The whole reason I want to create my own framework in the first place is because I was tired of needing to override so much stuff in Bootstrap. So, on my next project, instead of overriding Bootstrap, I'd be overriding my own Framework. What does that accomplish? Every project is going to be different in terms of navigation, fonts, colours, etc. But to me, there are still a few things I want in every project I do. Again, these are what I think are essential, to me.
not every site works off a grid, and that's ok, but I like a grid, so my framework must have a grid. And it must be responsive.
this helps make older browsers render similarly to modern browsers.
A bunch of 'functions' in my LESS files that make writing things like transitions, gradients, and drop-shadows much easier.
slight margin on tags like table, ul, and blockquote.
A note on the last one - an emphasis on the 'easily overridden' part. This really just acts as a place to hold all these types of variables in any project.
Using this Framework, I get just the basics. I only get what I use in every project. I don't have icons, fonts, typography, navigation, buttons, drop downs, or anything like that. The fact is, I don't use most of these things. Certainly not in every project. What I do get is a lightweight base for every project. I get a framework. I call it GroundWork.
You can find GroundWork on GitHub.

Two words. Seven letters. Say them and most people start to worry. Tax Time.
As a CPA, the first and last thing on my mind is taxes. I spend a busy tax season helping my clients get control of their finances, managing the steady stream of bank statements, receipts, and mileage logs. At the end of the day I have a small amount of time to wrangle with my own taxes, and I’ve tackled this challenge in the most accountant way possible; with Excel.
I’m going to give you some tips and tricks on how to do taxes in Excel, including a free tax tracker template you can download and start using right away.
Budget spreadsheets are a great way to keep track of your finances. You can add up all of your income and expenses in one place and be well prepared to drop your final numbers into your tax prep software.
While a basic budget spreadsheet is great, it is a rather manual process to prepare. Either you are adding multiple numbers in one cell and triple checking you keyed them in correctly, or you are creating a detail spreadsheet from your PDF bank statement. Unfortunately, both of these are very labor intensive.
Another issue that plagues traditional budget spreadsheets is matching categories up with lines that are on your income tax return at the end of the year. Don’t get me wrong, detail is great in understanding where your money is going, but when it comes to actually doing your taxes it’s just an unnecessary added step. That’s why I advocate for a Tax Tracker. A Tax Tracker takes your raw transactions and generates a Profit and Loss statement (also referred to as an Income statement) to be updated regularly like a budget tracker. You can get the amazing tracking template I use for my business below.
To speed this process up a bit, you can start by downloading an Excel copy of your bank or credit card transactions. In this day and age, most business bank and credit card accounts provide an Excel version of your transactions online and not just the paper or PDF statement.
Copy and paste your Excel versions of bank or credit card statements, including headings, into the Inc Stmt Detail tab of the template.
Indicate which column represents the transaction amount using the drop down menu in row 9. Note: make sure only transaction amounts are in the Transaction Amount column or the calculation on the Income statement will be off.
Classify each line to an income/expense category using the drop down menu in Column A, for example “Gross Sales”, or “Other Business Income”.
The Income Statement tab utilizes a handy SUMIF formula for each line item on the Inc Stmt Detail tab. For example, for the Gross Sales calculation on the Income Statement tab, the SUMIF formula searches for “Gross Sales” on the Inc Stmt Detail tab, Column A, and sums up all transaction values that match.
The Tax Tracker template provides three major tools that alleviate the typical pain points with the 1040 Schedules A, C, & D. The tabs in the Tax Tracker can be filled out in any particular order and are great way to double check your return before filing.
On the Sch, A tab, combine all your itemized deductions into the correct line items in column D. This will save you from paying an accountant to itemize your deductions for you.
On the Sch. D Detail tab you’ll use columns A through G to calculate your gains and losses from the sale of investments during the year which is summarized on the Sch. D Summary tab.
Use the Inc Stmt Detail and Income Statement tabs as shown above to turn bank and credit card statements into a working income statement that matches up with Schedule C on your tax return.
If you store your financial data in Excel, these next tips can help you make sure your spreadsheets are accurate and error free.
Say your bank provides you with Excel transaction data that isn’t up to snuff to use these new tools. For example, what if all your transaction amounts are numbers stored as text and you need them to be the numbers they represent? Luckily Microsoft anticipated this situation as well and created another clutch formula.
In this formula, text is the cell reference for the number to convert. The result of this formula is a mirror image of the original data with the exception that Excel recognizes it as numbers. Copy and paste values over the original data and now other mathematical formulas referencing those values will work properly.
One of the best ways to streamline the categorization process is through predefined lists. To pull this off, data validation will reduce errors and will make data entry easier, particularly if you and your significant other are updating a shared spreadsheet. For example, if “office supplies” accidentally became “offiec supplies”, your formulas that rely on that label would not work. With data validation, you can add an error message that will pop up if you try to enter data that isn’t on the list. Follow these steps to create your own data validation list.
Create a list of data options in a single column or row.
Select the cells where you want the drop down menu to be located then navigate to the Data Tab and click Data Validation.
Under the Settings tab, select List as the option under the "Allow" drop down list, and then select the range for your list under "Source".
Fill out the Error Alert tab to set your error message to stop you from entering values not included in the list.
Bonus Tip: to keep the list of values from being changed, lock the sheet with password protection so it can’t be edited. This can be accomplished under the Review ribbon.
There are few things more frustrating than figuring out where the errors are in your formulas. You work hard inputting the data and linking it up only to find the numbers just don’t add up. Instead of clicking through your cells and rereading the code, Excel offers a great tool to quickly see how your data is flowing through your formulas.
Highlight the cell(s) containing the formulas you want traced.
After you click, blue lines appear showing which cells are included in your formula. This formula is really helpful in showing which cells have data pulled from other sheets in the workbook.
In the course of compiling expenses I like to see multiple levels of detail in one columnar format. It helps to visually digest and make sense of the data when there are subtotals along the way. However, the typical addition formulas Excel provides can cause frustration. Either the SUM formula double counts the intermediate sums or you risk missing a cell if added up one by one.
Microsoft realized the need for a summing formula that excluded the in between subtotals when it created SUBTOTAL. Using this formula, you can create sums of specific rows without cluttering the surrounding cells with calculations and your grand total will not double count. To utilize this formula use the following steps.
ref1 is the data range that the function will be applied to.
Note the functions available for the SUBTOTAL formula are listed in numerical order while typing out the formula.
The subtotal formula also works great with grouping data. A lot of times you want to see the individual items that sum up to each line item in your Tax Tracker. Instead of creating a whole new sheet for this, you can sort your data by category and group with subtotals.
Highlight all the rows and columns of your transaction detail, including headers.
On the Home ribbon, click Sort & Filter > Custom Sort.
Under Column, select Category. Under Sort On, leave as Values. And for Order, choose either A to Z or Z to A. Also ensure the "My data has headers" check box is selected. Select OK.
With the same data highlighted, click on the Data ribbon and click Subtotal.
In the pop up window, select Category under "At each change in". Under "Use function" select Sum, and under "Add subtotal to", select Transaction amount. Also make sure the check box "Summary below data" is checked. Click OK.
The results of these steps add subtotal rows for each different category, and sum up on the transaction amounts, including a grand total at the bottom.
I hope you’ll find these Excel tips and tricks helpful this tax season to manage all the data that goes into filling out your tax return. Ultimately the key to managing any data is consistency - whatever methods you choose to compile your tax data, it must be done on a regular basis. Armed with the free Tax Tracker template and your Excel formula knowledge, preparing for tax season this year will be a breeze!

Summer is quickly winding down and I intend to enjoy every last moment of this weather for as long as I can. This is my favorite time of year because it means being outdoors, wearing sundresses, and eating lots of ice cream! Before the summer ends, I wanted to put together a popsicles post. Since it’s National Eat a Peach Day I though peach popsicles would be fitting!
For these popsicles, I made a creamy cold custard and layered it with Bai’s Nariño Peach Tea. I could hardly wait for these to freeze up before unmolding them and devouring them! Not to mention, they layered stripes make the popsicles look really cute.
In a medium bowl whisk together the eggs, sugar, and vanilla until the mixture lightens in color to a pale yellow and doubles in volume. Set aside.
In a small saucepan over medium heat, heat up the heavy cream and whole milk. Cook just until it starts to simmer. Remove from heat. Pour a small amount of the milk mixture into the egg mixture. Whisk to combine. Be careful not to pour too much milk mixture into the egg mixture or the heat from the milk will cook the eggs to quickly! Continue to pour the milk mixture into the egg mixture (you want to pour about half of the milk mixture in). Whisk constantly. Once it is full combined, add the egg mixture back into the sauce pan and set it on low heat.
Stir mixture with a spoon and cook until you have a thick, custard like consistency. It should be able to coat the back of the spoon. Once the mixture has thickened, remove from heat and chill in an ice bath.
You can use this as soon as it has cooled or store in the refrigerator until ready for use.
To assemble the ice pops, you will want to layer the peach tea and the creamy custard. Pour enough peach tea to cover the bottom of each popsicle mold. This will be the first “stripe” in the ice pop so it should fill the mold about 1/4 of the way up. Place the popsicle mold into the freezer until the tea is complete frozen. Add your second “stripe” by filling each mold with the custard until the mold is half full. Put in the freezer and freeze until semi hard. Remove and place popsicle stick into the center of each mold. Place back in the freezer and freeze until hard. Continue to fill the popsicles by alternating between peach tea and custard. Make sure you let each layer freezer before adding the next or they will run together!
Once the entire mold is full, place in freezer for at least 4 hours. When you are ready to serve, run the mold under warm water to loosen the popsicle. Remove the popsicles and enjoy!

Hope everyone had a great New Year and the Lead Piles have got bigger. Looking forward to 2014 now that the Shed HQ is nearly complete and the swamp of a back garden gets sorted out after all the building work which will make access to the shed easier. Still waiting for the electrician to run some power up to it but hopefully in the next couple of weeks that will be sorted as well. Met up with Richard Crawley on Sunday at the Penkridge Tabletop Wargames sale, lots of WH40K stuff but if you rummage deep there were some bargains to be had. Managed to pick up 4 KV-1's and 3 JS-III's which might make an appearance in the Andreivian game in April. Got a load of 10mm Fantasy Elves for my DBM games plus some other bits and bobs including 20mm buildings and Warhammer trees. But the bargain of the day had to be a box of 12 x 1/300th resin buildings for a pound. These will be added to the growing mountain of buildings to be based for this years CP6 event in September. So plans for 2014 will include finish the 20mm scratch built buildings for the Andreivian capital Tcherbevan along with painting up my Andreivian Government forces (look out for the Japanese Type 61's!!), continue preparations for the CWC MegaGame in September, 10mm DBM, more 20mm Modern stuff for Force on Force, 28mm 1920's/1930's Pulp, 6mm ACW and GWSH WWI. So hopefully 2014 will be a very productive year.

The government has released the second list of cities to be developed into smart cities as part of the Smart Cities Mission of the Narendra Modi Government. This also spells huge business opportunities for various segments, including IT.
Union Minister M Venkaiah Naidu released the list containing names of 13 cities which have been chosen following a fast-track competition.
Smart cities will be developed on the guidelines of urban India which includes providing quality infrastructure, uninterrupted power and water supplies along with facilitating internet connectivity and e-governance.
Given the size of proposed investment, experts feel, various business houses can look forward to never-before opportunity in the 33 smart cities. The smart city announcements are specially significant for those into infrastructure, networking and smart city-relevant technology players.
In January this year, the government had declared the names of 20 smart cities. The NDA government then had received a lot of flak for leaving out cities from non-NDA states such as Uttar Pradesh, Bihar and West Bengal.
Seven cities — Patna (Bihar), Shimla (Himachal Pradesh), Naya Raipur (Chhattisgarh), Itanagar (Arunachal Pradesh), Amaravati (Andhra Pradesh), Bengaluru (Karnataka) and Thiruvananthapuram (Kerala) — that were not among the 100 shortlisted for the competition will be able to participate in the next round, the Minister added.
Of the 13 cities that qualified for the project, four are from BJP-ruled States (Chhattisgarh, Goa, Jharkhand and Haryana) while two are from Congress-governed States (Himachal Pradesh and Manipur). Lucknow is in Samajwadi Party-ruled Uttar Pradesh, while Bhagalpur is in Bihar, where the JD(U), the RJD and the Congress are ruling coalition partners. Warangal is in Telangana, which is ruled by the Telangana Rashtra Samithi.Apart from these, The Union Territories of Chandigarh and Port Blair in Andaman and Nicobar Islands were also among the winners of this round.
Ten cities that failed to make the cut are: Pasighat (Arunachal Pradesh), Shillong (Meghalaya), Namchi (Sikkim), Diu (Daman & Diu), Oulgaret (Puducherry), Silvassa (Dadra and Nagar Haveli), Kohima (Nagaland), Aizawl (Mizoram), Kavaratti (Lakshadweep) and Dehradun (Uttarakhand). They will be able to participate in the next round with other cities.

Teachers’ Day or Teachers’ Appreciation Day is celebrated around the world in different dates to show appreciation and pay tribute to the contribution of teachers to children. In the U.S, it is observed in the first full week in May. It was Eleanor Roosevelt who persuaded the Congress to declare National Teacher Day in 1953.
See the fact file below for more information on Teachers’ Day or alternatively, you can download our 20-page Teachers’ Day worksheet pack to utilise within the classroom or home environment.
In the early 1940s, African American teacher, Mattie Whyte Woodridge who taught in a segregated school in Arkansas thought that educators should be recognised on how they mold and contributed to the society, particularly to children. In order to make it happen, Woodridge ventured on missions advocating her ideas.
She wrote letters to United States governors to identify a national day to honor teachers. By 1944, one of her letters was read by First Lady Eleanor Roosevelt.
As a result, Mrs. Roosevelt urged the 81st Congress to assign a day honoring the contribution of teachers. In addition, Woodridge’s suggestion was supported by the National Education Association.
But it was not until 1980 when the Congress designated March 7, as National Teacher Day for that year alone. As movements continued to grow, NEA officially designated the first Tuesday in March as National Teacher Day.
In 1999 during the 106th Congress, Congressman Rush Holt of New Jersey delivered a touching speech about National Teacher Day. On the same year, three months after Holt’s speech, Woodridge died and Teacher Appreciation Week was established.
Teachers’ Day is a particular time for students and parents to honor teachers for their contributions. Schools organize activities and presentations for teachers.
On an international scale, World Teachers’ Day has been celebrated since October 5, 1994. The UNESCO officially declared the celebration as part of commemorating the anniversary of 1966 UNESCO Recommendations about the status of Teachers.
Different countries celebrate Teachers’ Day in variety of dates. In Argentina, Teachers’ Day falls in September 11 in honor of their 7th president, Domingo Faustino Sarmiento who was a strong advocate of education.
In Bhutan, honoring teachers coincided with the birth of their 3rd King who introduced education to the country.
The Chinese celebrate on September 10, but some have since proposed it to be moved on September 28 which is the birth of Confucius. Teachers’ Day celebrations are also on the same date in Taiwan and Hong Kong.
Respected Indian teachers commonly receive a miniature replica of Taj Mahal every September 5th.
Over 20 countries celebrate Teachers’ day every October 5th including Armenia, Estonia, Germany, Mauritius, Myanmar, Qatar, UAE, Kuwait, and the Philippines.
In Colombia, teachers are honored on May 15th which marked the appointment of San Juan Bautista de la Salle as patron saint of teachers in 1950.
In Chile, Dia del Profesor is on October 15th, same date with the founding of Teachers’ Association of Chile.
In Armenia, chess class is a mandatory part of their curriculum.
Pakistani children ages 5 to 9 are entitled to compulsory education, others do not have the right to free education.
In New York, a school was named Harvey Milk High School after a gay rights activist and politician.
The King’s School in Canterbury, England is the world’s oldest school built in 597 AD.
According to studies, Japanese kids are the most independent students because they travel to school alone and clean classrooms.
Teaching is a female-oriented profession but number of male entering the field increased by 26%.
