Bayern Munich hammered Hertha Berlin 4-1 to record their first league win under new boss Jurgen Klinsmann on Sunday. Last season's top marksman Luca Toni opened the scoring in the 12th minute, before Philipp Lahm added the second nine minutes after half-time. Bastian Schweinsteiger made it 3-0 from the penalty spot in the 56th minute, before Miroslav Klose notched another spot-kick with 20 minutes remaining.
Marko Pantelic grabbed a consolation in the closing minutes as Hertha were outclassed. Sunday's other game in the league saw Mario Gomez continue his scoring form to inspire Stuttgart to a comfortable 2-0 home win against Hannover. The striker scored twice in the midweek 4-1 win over the Hungarian side Gyor to secure his side's qualification for the Uefa Cup, and he was on target again here. His 19th-minute effort set the hosts on their way and Pavel Pardo doubled the lead five minutes before the interval with a spot-kick.
Hannover tried to fight back, but offered little in attack. * PA Sport

What is the definition of an SME?
SMEs in the UAE are defined by the number of employees, annual turnover and sector. For example, a “small company” in the services industry has six to 50 employees with a turnover of more than Dh2 million up to Dh20m, while in the manufacturing industry the requirements are 10 to 100 employees with a turnover of more than Dh3m up to Dh50m, according to Dubai SME, an agency of the Department of Economic Development.
A “medium-sized company” can either have staff of 51 to 200 employees or 101 to 250 employees, and a turnover less than or equal to Dh200m or Dh250m, again depending on whether the business is in the trading, manufacturing or services sectors.

Electoral College Victory
Trump has so far secured 295 Electoral College votes, according to the Associated Press, exceeding the 270 needed to win. Only Nevada and Arizona remain to be called, and both swing states are leaning Republican. Trump swept all five remaining swing states, North Carolina, Georgia, Pennsylvania, Michigan and Wisconsin, sealing his path to victory and giving him a strong mandate.
Popular Vote Tally
The count is ongoing, but Trump currently leads with nearly 51 per cent of the popular vote to Harris’s 47.6 per cent. Trump has over 72.2 million votes, while Harris trails with approximately 67.4 million.
Tips for entertaining with ease
· Set the table the night before. It’s a small job but it will make you feel more organised once done.
· As the host, your mood sets the tone. If people arrive to find you red-faced and harried, they’re not going to relax until you do. Take a deep breath and try to exude calm energy.
· Guests tend to turn up thirsty. Fill a big jug with iced water and lemon or lime slices and encourage people to help themselves.
· Have some background music on to help create a bit of ambience and fill any initial lulls in conversations.
· The meal certainly doesn’t need to be ready the moment your guests step through the door, but if there’s a nibble or two that can be passed around it will ward off hunger pangs and buy you a bit more time in the kitchen.
· You absolutely don’t have to make every element of the brunch from scratch. Take inspiration from our ideas for ready-made extras and by all means pick up a store-bought dessert.
