Rated 5 out of 5 by Linneabeth from Fun boots, comfy too I was taken with the color and fabric of these and so took the plunge. I was pleased to find that the boots have accommodated to my feet, stretching just enough. They are extremely comfortable, and indeed the color and the velvet are terrific. I wear a 9, and they are true to size, even with my wide feet.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Sophia17 from Style and comfort I waited until these booties went on sale and found style and comfort at a great price. Because of the pointed toe, I ordered a half-size up.

Rated 5 out of 5 by Janbabe from Beautiful boot I was not disappointed when these boots arrived. They are so soft and comfortable. I've received many comments when wearing them. I wear a size 9, and the boots fit perfect. I'll defiantly wear them with skirts and jeans this fall and winter.

Rated 5 out of 5 by HBHoch from So fun and comfortable! I have such a hard time find cute shoes to fit my size 10-10.5 narrow feet. These are just the ticket. They are unique, really stand out and are comfortable. I love them with skinny raw cuff jeans and a dressy blouse, with or without a jacket. I've worn them work and out with friends. The purple actually works as a novel neutral. Give them a try.

Tax administration reforms in Kenya identifying lessons to model a strategy for sustainable administration of County taxes
Gichuki, Evanson Njaramba
MetadataShow full item record
The several tax administration reforms undertaken in Kenya do not exhibit a discernible methodology. There is no clear, deliberate and integrated reform mechanism to avoid haphazard implementation of reforms. With this background, implementation of county tax administration is bound to be haphazard, and without measurable expectations. The problems at the national tax administration will inevitably be devolved to the counties. A number of the past tax administration reform efforts have mainly been donor-led (IMF, World Bank, DFID, etc.), largely intended to tackle neopatrimonialism in governance in Kenya, as in the rest of sub-Saharan Africa

For teenagers, the list of priorities is long, but dental hygiene doesn't even make the top 10. Just ask and you'll see. There are a million things that teenagers worry about, like what they're going to do Friday and Saturday nights, sports, homework, tests, everything but their teeth. Parents, we know you try hard not to harass your teens too much, but this is one battle that should be fought – a lifetime of dental hygiene is at stake!
Teenagers have all heard the spiel about brushing and flossing a million times, but it's so important to make sure they really understand what is at stake. Poor dental hygiene could lead to an entire lifetime of painful – and very expensive – dental procedures. And it doesn't take long for bad habits to lead to problems. Dental issues can start very early in life if proper care is not taken. Just Google up some pictures of periodontal disease for your teenager – that should get them to listen.
For some additional help, here are a few tips for you to share with your teen. Back to school time is a perfect time to share…
Don't ignore issues, even when you're young. If your teen has any discomfort in their bite, or with a tooth, get them the proper care right away. Particularly with dental issues, waiting is never okay – it always makes it worse.
Sugar isn't just in candy. Explain to your teen that the hard candy is bad and should be avoided, but sugar comes in many forms. Even the sugars from an apple can stay on the teeth and lead to decay if brushing habits are not good. Making healthy eating choices is a key part of dental hygiene.
But even with healthy choices…
Brush more than once a day. The sugars and acids from even healthy foods can sit on the teeth and cause decay. It is very important to brush, to remove all the plaque and decay-causing sugars from your teeth and from your gum line. Twice a day is a must, but brushing after every meal is even better. Keep telling them over and over!
Don't blow off the dentist visits. Scheduling regular hygiene appointments – every 6 months – is a must. This will ensure that any issues are found quickly and also the deep cleaning will help get any plaque, or its hardened cousin, calculus, from the gum line and from deep between the teeth.
Make sure your teens know how important their teeth brushing habits are for their overall health and how developing good habits now can serve them all through their adult year. Call Lake Ridge Dental today to get your teen's teeth checked out before we get too far into the school year. Book your appointment today!

Who would you rather get f#cked by - Justin Bieber or Luke Hemmings?

Since I'm a straight male, first choice would be neither, but if I must choose between punishments, then I guess whoever is smaller. Probably the first one.

I just came to see if any of the known Liberals on Yahoo Answers stated their pick.

Justin Bieber ***** people, yeah. But not in that way.
Look at the 560000 people he should have on his conscience.
Him, and his NWO friends.

Homosexuals are going to burn in hell. With that being said I'd pick neither. Also, Beiber is a smacked ***. If he were to act the way he does now in my neighborhood when I was growing up he wouldn't have left his house much. He hides behind his bodyguards when he talks tough, so lame. A lot of young people act like this today, it's a shame. We policed ourselves back then but today they would call the cops if a 16 yr old beat up another 16 yr old even if the loser was the instigator. Just another element in what's going wrong in the world right now.
- MegumiLv 61 month ago
I despise Justin Bieber, and I never heard of Luke Hemmings. I looked him up, and I do not like his looks. I do not want to sleep with either of them.

How about neither? Gagging at the thought. I'm more masculine than Justin, by the way.

Both please 😅
Luke Hemmings used to be hot around the time of 'She Looks So Perfect'. Not so hot now. I'd probably choose Justin.

CLEAR Buckhaven is the latest local charity to benefit from health and safety training.
It has been a team effort with the charity working with Health and Social Care Partnership's Health Promotion Service and Fife Council's Environmental Health, Food and Workplace Safety Team to deliver training which improves knowledge on health and safety and wellbeing issues in the workplace. Course trainer Peter Ager commented, "Health and safety legislation requires workplaces to have access to health and safety advice irrespective of size and the main aim of this training is to help workplaces have better knowledge. There are many small organisations with limited resources but still need a greater understanding of health and safety matters and how to apply these in the workplace".
Councillor David Graham, Spokesperson for Health and Social Care Partnership was on hand to congratulate and present the staff with their Royal Environmental Health Institute of Scotland (REHIS) Elementary Health & Safety certificate.
"Research has shown that 'good work is good for you' and the health and safety environment is a key component in addressing health inequalities in the workplace. I am pleased that the company also recognises the value this brings by encouraging and training their staff on health and safety matters and helping to strengthen safety knowledge and awareness in the workplace."

For healthcare professionals, understanding the relevant legislation can be a daunting task. They must learn how to adapt to changes in the world or face stiff fines and other penalties. This is especially true in the field of digital information management. In 1996, then-US President Bill Clinton signed into law the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability (HIPAA) Act. The first part of the law protects the health insurance coverage of workers and their families when they change companies or lose their jobs. The second part mandated the creation of national standards for electronic health records (EHR). Lawmakers would soon take this objective to the next level. In 2009, the Health Information Technology for Economic and Clinical Health (HITECH) Act granted the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) nearly $26 billion. These funds went toward advancing the efforts prompted by the HIPAA Act. Since then, healthcare professionals have been working to improve their digital systems.

29th January - A Moorside Passing – Krys Gaffney.
I am so sad to report the sudden death last weekend of KRYS GAFFNEY, a longstanding Moorside plotholder, Committee member and good friend.
Krys has had a garden on Moorside for over 25 years. She also served as our Committee Secretary for more than 20 years and was an active and valued member of the team. Not only was Krys our Committee Secretary but she maintained our Bee Garden and our planters of flowers, she was a key member of the judging team in our annual Moorside Competition and as can be seen here, Krys - pictured in the foreground - with her usual big smile, organised and 'manned' the barbecue every year at our Annual Show with husband Paul (at the back of the photograph), serving the most delicious food throughout the event, at the same time raising significant funds for our Association.
For her many friends and colleagues on Moorside who may wish to attend, Krys 's humanist funeral is taking place on Monday, 16th March 2020 at 2.45 pm at the Crematorium on the West Road.

13th January - Annual General Meeting
The Moorside AGM will be held on Wednesday 19th February at 7.30pm, St James' & St Basil's Church
Please ensure that when entering or exiting our allotments you lock the gates behind you and take out your key. There have been instances, we know, where the padlocks have been malfunctioning recently but all are in good working order and therefore there is no excuse for leaving the gates unlocked. Coming onsite on Wednesday morning at 9 am, the central gate was unlocked with the padlock hanging on the chain. Not acceptable, people, sorry! Not only is this practice a breach of security but it is not fair to other gardeners whose personal possessions onsite are put at risk.
The gates must not be left open for visitors, helpers, trades people, non-keyholder family members or anyone else, so please make the necessary arrangements to let them in and secure the padlock afterwards.
Thank you for your co-operation.
Susan Pownall
5th December 2019.
11th November - Toilets, Water & Leaves
The toilets will be closed and the water around the site will be switched off next weekend, 16-17th November, so anyone wanting to gather water for their greenhouse overwintering plants needs to do it before next Saturday.
The St James and St Basil's Church garden is once more full of leaves and anyone wanting a variety of leaves for leaf mould is welcome to go and collect. Take your own bags and something to gather the leaves into the sacks.
4th October - Help The Hungry In Our City!
Based on the success of our surplus produce stall at both our Moorside Show and then the City Show, our glut of fruit and vegetables can be put to good use: Moorside allotments association is co-ordinating donations of your surplus produce to deliver to the food bank in Benwell. Please don't waste excess fruit and vegetables as they can be put to good use by the food bank volunteers, either by providing meals or distributing to deserving households.
Please use the boxes on the table outside the Moorside shop and we will do the rest!
Thank you in advance!

4th August - City Allotments Competition
The results form the 2019 City Allotments Competition are in and the results can be viewed here (PDF)
My Thoughts:
Once again it was an honour and a privilege to judge this year's Allotment Competition. The weather was warm, dry and sunny, which was great for myself and Rachel. The quality of the crops and the abundance of produce was once again fantastic. The sites we visited were clean, tidy and cultivated to a high standard, as they always are. It was great to chat with individual plotholders, to get their take on the importance of having an allotment, be it, physical health, mental and spiritual benefits, the social side, through to healthy eating (grow your own). Thank you all, for taken time out to show us around your allotment sites.
Rachel Flannery:
Where has the year gone. Judging the allotments this year has been great. Revisiting the sites and seeing all the changes that have taken place over the year have been amazing. The standard of competition was yet again high and there was little margin between everyone.
It was great to see the enthusiasm of those who took the time to show us round and how proud they are of their sites. The level of community spirit and support for one another on each site was a joy to see.
As always, my particular interest is the wildlife section and I found that allotment holders not necessary entered for wildlife friendly plot are all doing 'their bit' to help wildlife including the amount of bird baths, bird feeders, companion planting, plants which provide nectar source and consideration for night time pollinators. Insect houses, green roofs, hedgehog hibernacula, habitat piles, bird boxes, bat boxes and basking areas. It was great to see some allotment holders have now installed more wildlife cameras and information boards for other allotment holders to see what is on their site.
All round thanks to the allotment holders, secretaries and committees – who put in many hours to keep the sites ticking over.
Please remind all winners and runners up to be at this year's Allotment & Garden Fete, Leazes Park, Sunday 15th September, 2pm, in the main marquee, next to the bandstand to collect their trophies , certificates and prize money.
To all of you out there wondering whether it is worth entering the Allotment Show at Leazes Park this year, I would say, go for it, let's keep this events running for the future and for the future generations.
Please I look forward to seeing you all at this year's Allotment & Garden Fete.
19th June - Future Management Of Moorside Allotments
On 4th June 2019, your Committee attended a meeting at the Mansion House convened by the Parks and Allotments Trust, the City Council and the Freemen, along with the Committee representatives of the five Wartime Allotment Sites which have been managed to date by the City Council and – since 1st April 2019 – by the newly formed Newcastle Parks and Allotments Trust. For information, the Trust is also now responsible for the management of all the remaining allotments throughout the city which have no links with the Freemen.
The purpose of the meeting was to hear the decision by the Freemen as to whether the Wartime Sites, including Moorside, would continue to be part of and managed by the Parks and Allotments Trust or whether, as a result of current Agreements and Leases expiring from 1st April 2020, the Freemen would not renew those agreements and that the Wartime Sites would join the few Intake Allotment Sites which are already – and have always been - managed directly by the Freemen.
We were informed by the Chairman of the Freemen at the meeting that as from 1st April 2020, Moorside Allotments along with Little Moor, Highbury South, Triangle and Coxlodge would come under the direct control of the Freemen.
Following the meeting, your Committee is working with the Parks and Allotments Trust and the other Wartime and Intake sites to pool information as well as learning about the implications of the new arrangement. There may of course be some changes but we did receive positive reassurances on maintaining existing standards, for which there is a proven track record, as well establishing a successful future working relationship.
Your Committee will ensure you are kept up to date with progress via our website and our notice boards but in the meantime, it is business as usual.
Susan Pownall
Chairman, on behalf of the Moorside Committee

11th June - Judging For Both Moorside 2019 Winners And The City's Annual Allotment Competitions Draws Near!
Calling all Moorside Plotholders!
We've just been notified that the City's Parks and Allotment Trust will be sending round their judges on the lookout for Best Allotment Site in the City as well as other 'Bests' in which historically Moorside Allotments Association has done so well. The City judging will take place during the early part of week commencing 2nd July 2019.
There are two stages on your way to a 'Best in City' award. Our own Moorside Allotment Competition is judged during the last week in June and winners are not only awarded our annual Moorside Allotment prizes but will go forward as recommended 'winning plots' in the City competition. The competition from other sites is getting fiercer as allotments are upping their game but for several years Moorside has always come within the top four sites of the 65 across the City in the Best Large Allotment Site category and the greatest triumph was when we scooped the top spot altogether. Let's aim for that again in 2019!
Here's your chance to prove your garden too, is the Best! It could be an organic plot, or best plot with glass or best newcomer, best wildlife-friendly plot amongst many other possible award-winning categories. Last year's winners are still featured on our website and on our notice boards, so see where your plot fits in.
But before that, there is work to be done!
In addition to tackling those weeds and showing your well-tended garden, make sure your perimeter boundary is also cared for. Our plot cultivation standards include keeping your fence lines trimmed and weed free, too. Hedges should be trimmed and there should be no straggling brambles etc invading the pathways. Gather up and clear your rubbish – we have a skip coming imminently – and most of all, show what an enthusiastic and imaginative gardener you are with a variety of crops and flowers you are cultivating.
Let's all make that extra effort to make Moorside Allotments look even more special than usual this year!
Susan Pownall, Chairman, on behalf of the Moorside Allotments Committee.

6th May - Trading hut, Plant Scheme & The Plot Inspectors Cometh
Trading Hut/Shop
Due to the high demand for compost and fertilises, we were lucky that our Scottish wholesaler did not recognise our Easter Monday as a holiday and he was able to get another immediate delivery to us the following day i.e. 23rd April. Already, this stock too is diminishing but we took advantage of the delivery to buy in some extra large Levingtons tomato grow bags, which you have started asking for. They are a few pence more expensive than last year but still offer good quality and value at £4.50 per grow bag.
Compost is available for all uses from organic peat free to multi-purpose to fine grain compost containing silver sand, ideal for seeds. We also have ericaceous compost suitable for all lime-hating plants including azaleas, hydrangeas, heathers, blueberries and bilberries.
There is still time to plant your seed potatoes and we have stock of most varieties on our sales sheet, still at £2 for a 2 Kilo net, across earlies to main crop. We can split down to 1kg for customers if required.
See our sales sheet on the website for current prices.
Moorside Plant Scheme
The Plant Scheme team have a wealth of brassicas, broad beans and early peas all ready for purchase and planting either on your plot or in your garden at home . There is a lot more to come but with the cold weather as it is, the frost tender plants are being taken care of in a warm environment at the moment and purchases would need to be protected with fleece until the cold spell has passed. Nevertheless, the selection is as wide as always with some unusual varieties across vegetables and flowers, so come and browse the selection.
For further updates on what is ready, WATCH THIS SPACE!
Plant Scheme Opening Hours: 10am to 12 noon on Saturdays and Sundays, coinciding with the Moorside Shop opening times.
Monthly site inspections
2nd April saw our first 2019 site inspection immediately prior to our regular Committee meeting. The inspection team were pleased to see how much progress had been made on the majority of gardens, particularly those of our newcomers. Well done!
Our next inspection will take place on 7th May when it is hoped even more seasonal progress will be on view. May is a crucial month in our gardening calendar, so don't get behind – after that it is difficult to catch up. Although our early May Bank Holiday weather is not very encouraging, even a couple of hours on a good day or evening can make all the difference and the lighter nights have seen many of you coming down after work to get some fresh air and make a difference to your plots. Keep up the good work.

To keep things more organized it's important that scripts, projects, tutorials and suggestions should be placed on the development forum.
This will allow to make a better filtering of the scripts and create more specialized sub-forums where projects and scripts can be categorized in the future.
Script developers in the development forum are also able to pin/close/open important topics and tutorials in order to keep things more simple to use.
Openbuilder forum is still the place for bugs, improvements, feedback, planning and discussion on the application or included tools, but the development forum is by far the best place to post and discuss scripts, avoiding people to switch from this forum onto the other searching for answers on a specific issue.
All topics regarding script discussion from this forum were moved to the development forum, I'm sorry for any inconvenience this might bring to those who had already posted in here..

Al Baker slams actions of Delta Air Lines, branding CEO as unpatriotic
Qatar Airways' CEO Akbar Al Baker has ruled out plans to introduce US pre-clearance for flights from Hamad International.
Pre-clearance has been introduced at Abu Dhabi International airport and according Al Baker, the new service has led to delays to flights to the US.
"I will not have pre-clearance in Doha and from what I know, Dubai will not have that," Al Baker said, speaking at a press conference at Arabian Travel Market.
"Quite simply, my job as an airline is to take passengers from point A to point B, on time, and what happens there in the immigration is not my problem. If I start doing pre-clearance in Doha and my aircraft constantly arrives late into the US, which is happening now with Etihad, I'm obliged to provide accommodation to my customers who misconnect, because they never asked us to pre-clear. This is something we generated, so I would rather take the passenger on time to their destination and then what happens in immigration and customs is not my problem. I don't want to create another confusion or delay by pre-clearing passengers," he added.
Earlier in the day, Al Baker spoke at a conference at the event and outlined his views on the ongoing spat between US airlines and Gulf carriers. He said he's travelling to the US next week to meet with government officials, after which he has he will speak to US media and outline his thoughts in full.
"We are disappointed at this. I don't want to really talk too much about hits subject because I'm going to meet the government officials in Washington next week. But after that, I am going to open the books, and confront them, but until I have spoken to the government, apologies I don't to pre-empt my discussion," he said.
Al Baker did, however, have some choice words about Delta CEO Richard Anderson, claiming he was being unpatriotic.
"I want to say in very clear terms, Mr Anderson is not a patriot of his country because what he is doing is stifling the interest of the travelling public in the United States. He is very single-minded in looking at himself. He still feels that he is a prosecutor - he was previously prosecutor before he came to Delta. He thinks that everybody is a criminal but he is forgetting his own backyard," said Al Baker.
"I'm not going to mince my words and I am going to meet the press. I think Mr Anderson has never seen a CEO that will be so direct, so insulting and absolutely to the point to expose him. He is working against the interest of his own country. He has no dignity, he has no ethics, he has, in my frank opinion, a weak personality and is only hiding behind all this nonsense, misleading his government in a big way. I will go to the government in a very clear way, in a very precise way, in a very direct way to show them the misleading information," he added.
Similar to Emirates President Sir Tim Clark, Al Baker said they will take their time to respond to the US claims. "We need, as they did, two years," he said.
Al Baker said the US also had questions to answer about subsidies. He insisted they had nothing to hide and reiterated that any funding they received was an equity stake investment.
"If he (Anderson) is talking about subsidy, Delta should have been closed because it was bankrupt. If American Airlines are talking about it, they were bankrupt. US Airways, I don't know why my alliance partner is jumping into this story. He was bankrupt twice in a period of 18 months. United was bankrupt - so they were all bankrupt and now they're talking about subsidies for us," he said.
"It's not subsidies for us. It's proper government equity in a company that is owned by the sovereign fund of my country. So what's the problem? The problem is when you start flying 767-200s around, which is a 35-year-old aeroplane and stopped production two decades ago, fooling your customers, of course he can complain.
"I don't think his argument will stand. I'm sure the government of the United States will look at the bigger picture, their economic interest and the 1000s of jobs that our aircraft products brings to the industry - much more than he creates in Delta," he added.
Al Baker said if anyone should be complaining about competition, it should be IAG's Willie Walsh, who has all three Gulf airlines in competition with route to London and the UK.
"We have an open sky with London. He should be that should be screaming the most. Actually he is absolutely positive about the competition and he has no issue," he said.

Publishers Letter. March 2013
Dear Natural Awakenings Readers & Friends,
This month I would like to focus on something called Innovation in Bloom. We are at the lovely time of year when the birth of our warmer months is about to erupt. New growth, new life and what I am seeing right now is new innovation. What better a time to seed and fertilize that idea you have been sitting on or to cross-pollinate your creative forces with others on the same open-minded mission as you. No great achievement comes easily and requires the time and nurturing that you would give any garden or life source.
There are huge community gardens in bloom sharing all sorts of creative concepts and ideas at the various expos and festivals popping up in New York and New Jersey this spring season. Please see our calendar of events in the back of our magazine and schedule your day of exploration, stimulation, and creative growth. You will find Natural Awakenings in a flower bed at Green Festival returning to the Jacob Javitz on April 20th-21st. These exciting events provide the same stimulation as a walk through The Central Park Conservancy, one of my favorite places in the park!
Also in our great park, you will find Natural Awakenings and Green Changes cross-pollinating their creative efforts to create an organically healed world at the Unity Walk on April 27th (see brief on page 10).
So I encourage you….get up and spread your seeds!
Let's see what innovation you have in bloom!

Why Start a Baking Business from Home?
If you are one of those that enjoy baking and equally have that entrepreneurial spirit, then the baked goods business is definitely one which you should consider starting. This is due to the fact that there are a number of people who prefer to buy baked goods than making it themselves.
In starting your baking business, you will need to have sufficient skills and the knowledge necessary to safely prepare food and also know about potential dietary issues. Dietary issues are important as they will help you know how to label your baked goods appropriately so that those that have allergies to certain ingredients can be aware of what they are purchasing.
Starting a Baking Business from Home – A Complete Guide
- Industry Overview
The baking business industry is very vital to the economy of the united states of America as its total GDP for the economy amounts to nearly 2.1 percent. Those that own baking businesses, product wholesalers as well as other businesses directly or indirectly under this industry have employed close to 1.76 million Americans as at 2010. Those employed earned more than $90 billion in wages and benefits.
According to statistics, the market for baked goods globally is expected to exceed $485 billion by the year 2020. The increase in demand is caused by demand for organic, healthy and natural baked goods. The largest market worldwide comes from Europe, where demand for fresh baked products in stores are very high.
Another fast growing market is that of the Asia-Pacific with a CAGR of over 6 percent and this is due to the rising population as well as a change in the consumption trends. Also, the middle class in Asia is gaining affluence and as such has lost its appetite for rice and have started taking wheat based foods such as bread in place of rice.
In the United States of America, there are about 2,800 commercial bakeries that bring in an annual revenue of $36 billion. There are also close to 6,000 retail bakeries that bring in an annual revenue of $3.8 billion. The commercial side of the industry is heavily concentrated as the 50 largest companies generate about 75 percent of the industry revenue. The retail aspect is however not as heavily concentrated as the commercial aspect and therefore the 50 largest companies generate only about 15 percent of revenue with many companies in this bracket owning just one facility.
According to IBISWorld, the profitability of the industry will improve over the next five years especially as the prices of the primary ingredients used in baking will stabilize. This will allow bakers over this period to easily anticipate fluctuations in prices and also be able to adjust the prices of their own baked products even as the ingredients costs continue to rise. Therefore revenue for this five year period is expected to grow annually at an average rate of 0.6 percent which will amount to $40 billion over this time period.
According to analysis, most customers prefer their products to be freshly baked and this reason is what caused an increase in the purchase of bakery products. 11 percent of customers claim that they buy at least one baked product every week, while 22 percent bought at least once a month. Most people who consume baked products are very particular about the taste of the products and to them it is important that the product have a good taste than for it to be healthy.
In the bakery industry, cake sales are the most significant as they represent nearly 29 percent of the whole industry. Out of this percentage, 51 percent are mostly decorated cakes and dessert cakes with about 10 percent for cupcakes. Therefore households are usually the best customers for cakes. Hispanics for instance spend close to 17 percent on cakes more than the average household.
The recovering economy will see an increase in disposable income and with customers' new health conscious trend, there will be demand for baked products that are organic, gluten free and other products such as fortified products. Competition externally has increased over the past five years, with imports projected to grow annually at 7.1 percent and exports expected to increase by 9.8 percent over this time period.
Starting a Baking Business from Home – Market Research and Feasibility Studies
- Demographics and Psychographics
The demography and psychographic composition of those who take baked goods is quite huge as it cannot be restricted to a certain class of people, age group or race but cuts across all these factors. This is because baked goods, except for a few set of people, are consumed by nearly everyone.
Therefore, if you are thinking of defining the demographics for your baking business, you should be ready to make it all-encompassing.
List of Niche ideas Within the Baking Industry That You Can Specialize in
The baked goods business is one that covers a whole lot of baked goods and so to start this business, you will need to understand what you are best at, so you will focus on that before expanding your business to accommodate other baked goods.
Due to the fact that there are several niche ideas in the baking business, small businesses usually start off with handling just one or two niches, while larger companies are usually able to handle more niche areas thereby getting more customers.
Some of the major niche areas for a baking business are;
- Sit down bakery
- Video tutorials
- Online bakery
- Specialty bakery
- Counter service bakery
The Level of Competition in Baking Industry
The level of competition in the baking business industry has a lot to do with the location of the business. As a bakery, you cannot operate from any part of the country, as you must be physically located close to your customers, especially as people prefer to consume freshly baked goods.
This trend has made it very favorable for large scale baking companies who have physical facilities in locations where there is likely to be a huge demand for their baked products. This equally has made it very hard for smaller bakery companies to compete, especially those who have just one facility and therefore cannot meet up with demands in other areas. Asides from location, equipment needed in order to meet up with large demands also favour the larger bakeries than the smaller bakeries.
In terms of ensuring that customers get personalized services, the smaller bakeries have an upper hand over the larger bakeries as they have been able to meet up with the desires of the customers by offering specialized handcrafted products. The larger bakeries are not able to replicate this due to the fact that they produce their baked products en mass in order to meet up with the basic growing demands of their customers.
List of Well-Known Baking Business Brands in the Industry
Every industry has brands which are well known and the baking business industry is no different. Most of these brands that are well known have deployed certain strategies that have enabled them to stand the test of time. Some of these strategies could include; publicity and advertising strategies, Pricing Strategy, penetration strategy as well as other kinds of strategies.
Therefore, below are the well-known baking businesses in the United State of America as well as globally;
- Bakers Delight
- Allied Bakeries
- Dunkin' Donuts
- Bimbo Bakeries USA
- Finsbury Food Group
- Flowers Food
- McKee Foods Corporation
Economic Analysis
The baking business suffered a bit during the recession but has started showing signs of recovery with an increase in demand for baked products that are not only small and easy to hold in size but ones that also have natural and organic ingredients.
According to the Center for Economic Vitality, the baking business industry in the United States was comprised of two sectors; the commercial and retail sectors and both brought in a combined $33 billion in revenue annually. Although the commercial bakeries were fewer in number – 2,800 – when compared to the retail bakeries – 6,000 – it was the commercial bakeries that brought in more revenue for the industry, close to 91 percent.
The baking business industry is a challenging place and so in order to survive, wholesalers and retailers in the industry have had to adapt and remain proactive. Some of the challenges that have been faced have been from a saturated market, increased competition as well as fluctuating prices in food and fuel, which has led them to use future products in order to limit the number of losses to be incurred.
Due to the economies of scale, smaller bakeries are finding it hard to compete with larger bakeries, with some of these small bakeries being bought off by the larger bakeries.
Bakeries are becoming proactive as they have begun to use the trend in consumer taste to not only stay in business but increase their sizes as well. Smaller bakeries have been able to create niches for themselves by giving their customers handcrafted artisanal products, a feat that larger bakeries, due to their mass production cannot attain. Also, most bakeries are now making use of par-baked products so as to meet the growing demand and cut down on baking time.
According to the Consumer Price Index for Food as well as the United States nondurable goods manufacturers, the increase in shipments of food products has shown that the revenue in the bakery industry has increased as well better than previous years.
Starting Your Baking Business from Scratch versus Buying a Franchise
As an entrepreneur, starting your business from scratch or buying a franchise is a decision that will purely be based on what your corporate end goals and vision is. Both options have their disadvantages and advantages and so you must carefully weigh them to decide what is best for your business.
Starting from the scratch will allow you learn thoroughly about the business and you will be able to determine what routes you should take and can also change a strategy that isn't working well for your company. However, starting from the scratch means you are prone to making more mistakes during startup, which if not well handled well might lead to your business failing.
On the other hand, buying a franchise means allowing the company whom you are buying the franchise from handle certain decisions for you, such as marketing, paperwork and products. This option is good if you want to understand how the business is run without having to worry about starting from the scratch.
It is however important to note that you cannot change strategies as you aren't fully in control of your business. This therefore means that you would need to conduct a thorough research on the company from which you intend to purchase a franchise from so as to know what exactly you are getting into.
Possible Threats and Challenges You Will Face When Starting a Baking Business
Every business faces challenges and threats either during the course of start up or during the course of running the business and the baking business is no different. Having challenges and threats is not important as being able to handle them when they eventually crop up.
And so the threats and challenges that you are likely to have when starting your baking business in the United States of America are; change in consumer tastes and desires, an increase in competition, a saturated market, and fluctuations in prices of ingredients. As an entrepreneur, you should be aware of these trends and have laid down plans on how to combat them.
Starting a Baking Business from Home – Legal Matters
- Best legal entity to use for a baking business
When starting a business, you will need to worry about what legal entity would be best for your business and the baking business is no different. This is why it is important that as one who is about to start a business, you approach an attorney or an accountant who is well versed in the business you are going into, and can look at your business and tell you the pros and cons of each legal entity which would then help you determine what legal entity would best suit your baking business.
As a new baking business, you are faced with three legal entities option such as C Corporation, S Corporation (S Corp), and a Limited Liability Company (LLC). Choosing any of these three legal entities will help you avoid personal liability that you are likely to incur in the course of running your baking business, as your liabilities will not only be separate but will be limited to the capital which you have invested into the business.
The C and S Corporations are not really different with the slight exception of taxes. A C Corporation for instance pays tax on the profits the business has generated. For an S Corporation, the business is not required to pay taxes, as it is the shareholders in the company that are taxed on their profits.
A Limited Liability Company (LLC) is one that has the combined advantages of a corporation and the tax benefits from a partnership form of legal entity. This means that profits are reported via tax returns. Most entrepreneurs starting this kind of business usually go for an LLC, with others going for an S Corporation and only a few going for a C Corporation. The reason why only few go for a C Corporation is that they are not tax friendly.
Catchy Business Name Ideas Suitable for a Baking Business
Choosing the right business name for your bakery business is very important as the name should be unique, creative and memorable for customers and other stakeholders in the industry. The business name should also indicate the industry you are in for easy referencing.
Therefore, if you are considering starting your own baking business, here are some catchy names you can choose from;
- Bakers World
- Tasty Delight Pastries
- Unik Cakes and Bread
- Sheila's Cakes
- S&M Foods Corporation
- Miller's Bakery
Insurance Policies
Having insurance for your bakery business is mandatory if you intend to operate your business without any sort of hitches in the United States of America. There are several insurance policies that you would need to get, and while you might need to create a budget for those you intend purchasing, it would be best if you first approach an insurance agent or broker, so as to be guided on the best insurance policies for your baking business.
Some of the basic insurance policies that you should however look towards purchasing if you intend to start your baking business in the United States of America are;
- Workers Compensation Insurance
- Unemployment Insurance
- Disability Insurance
- Medical Insurance
- Commercial Vehicle Insurance
- Bakery Insurance
Intellectual Property Protection/Trademark
Getting intellectual property protection for your baked products might be easy enough to apply for in principle in order to protect your designs, especially if you are a cake designer. However, enforcing the IPP law in this industry is hard and very expensive; also even if the case is taken to court, one might likely not win.
Therefore most entrepreneurs in this industry usually do not bother with applying for an intellectual property protection except when they have to apply for IPP on their company logo, slogan or jingle.
Is Professional Certification Needed to Run a Baking Business?
Even though the baking business is one that is based on skills, having a certification or more will go a long way to boost the profile of your business and allow you to be able to bid for jobs at corporate and other levels. And so while some entrepreneurs do not deem it necessary to get any certification due to the small scale operations they might be operating, others are doing so in order to have an edge over their competition and because once you have reached a certain level, then it is deemed necessary.
Some of the certifications that you would need to look on getting in order to run your baking business and stand out are;
- Baking and Pastry Arts Certification
- Retail Bakers of America (RBA) Certification
- Certified Journey Baker (CJB)
- Certified Baker (CB)
- Certified Decorator (CD)
- Certified Master Baker (CMB)
It should be noted that the more certifications you acquire, the easier it would be for you to be able to compete and bid for jobs.
List of Legal Documents You Need to Run a Baking Business
Every business requires a list of legal documents that will enable it run legally in the United States of America and the bakery business is no different. Regardless of the fact whether you intend to run your bakery business from home or from a leased facility, there are certain documents that you will need to possess so that you don't risk running into problems with the regulated authorities and get banned from ever running the business again.
Even though certain documents might differ depending on the state you intend running your bakery business from, there are some legal documents that remain basic. You should however find out from your state what will be needed to run your bakery business. But some of the basic legal documents you would need to run your business are;
- Certificate of Incorporation
- Operating Agreement
- Business License and Certification
- Business Plan
- Contract Document
- Food Preparation License
- Food Handler Permit
- Insurance policies
- Employment agreement
- Federal tax identification number
- Employee Identification Number (EIN)
Once you have found out all the necessary requirements and have met them, you will need to pay a fee and complete an application in order to obtain the necessary licenses which will include a food handlers permit as well as a food preparation license. Also, the necessary authorities may have need to inspect the location where you intend to use in baking goods for sale.
It will also be in your business' best interest to create labels that will indicate the ingredients and nutritional contents in the baked goods you intend to sell. The packaging and labeling has to meet the guidelines of the local health department as well as the Food and Drug Administration.
Financing Your Baking Business
Every business idea remains so if there is no finance to ensure that the idea becomes reality, which is why having the necessary finance to start and run one's business is very important. Finance is one of the reasons why it is important to write a business plan as this will detail what your business is about, how much your business needs as well as possible ways to generate funds to run the business.
Therefore, some of the options that you can explore when you are sourcing for start-up capital for your baking business are;
- Sourcing for start-up capital from investors and business partners
- Raising capital from personal savings as well as sale of personal stocks
- Raising soft loans from family members and friends
- Applying for loan from the bank or financial institution
- Approach the Small Business Agency (SBA) for loan
Choosing a Suitable Location for your Baking Business
Choosing the right location for your baking business will depend on the scale of business you intend to run. If you are going to be running a small bakery business, then you might need to run it from home. If however, you intend to run a large scale business or intend to be serious with your bakery business, then you would need to lease a facility.
Before starting your bakery business at home, you must endeavour to carry out a research based on the laws regarding baking from home in your jurisdiction. This is because in some jurisdictions, selling baked goods from your kitchen is prohibited.
After conducting your research, it will be necessary for you to contact your state's department of licensing and inspection so as to further learn if operating your bakery business from your kitchen is legal. If it is legal, you might need to carry out some requirements like renovating your kitchen and having an official from the health department carry out an inspection on your premises.
If you are going to be operating from home, you might need to create a website and use social media platforms to reach a wide range of your customers to spread more awareness about your bakery business. However, you should be aware that you would only be able to cater to those in your locality as consumers want the fresh taste of baked products.
Starting a Baking Business from Home – Technical & Manpower Details
In starting your bakery business, you must not be only concerned with your capital and location but also the equipment and ingredients you would need as well as those that will be needed to work in your bakery. Also, you would need to ensure that your products meet the taste of your customers.
Regarding the equipment you would need for your bakery business, the basic equipment you would need are; boxes, cardboard containers, Styrofoam, bags and cellophane. You will also need packaging supplies and labels.
The number of employees you would need in order to effectively run your bakery business successfully are; the chief executive officer, admin and human resource manager, marketing executive, business development executive, customer service executive, accountant, driver and associates. In summary, you would need at least 8 key people to start your bakery business and run it successfully.
The Production Process Involved a Baking Business
Baking businesses usually control inventory from the point of production to the point of sale. This is because the perishable nature of the most of the ingredients means that production must be synchronized with demand. Demand is often planned based on orders, thereby lowering the occurrence of surplus.
Meeting the demands of customers can be very hard, which is why baking companies that engage in direct deliveries to even the point of purchase have found it easy to understand the consumption pattern of consumers. This is why most bakeries operate an automated system so as to get information that is up to date so that sales and production can easily be synchronized with the demand of consumers.
The baking process usually involves purchasing the ingredients and scaling it, mixing, shaping, fermentation, baking and then cooling before the goods are packaged and sold to either retailers or consumers.
Starting a Baking Business from Home – The Marketing Plan
- Marketing ideas and strategies
Running a bakery means you would need to get the necessary customers that will allow you to generate the intended revenue for your business. Even though almost anyone can bake and sell, it takes those that have something unique to offer to be able to stand out from others, even those baking the same thing.
And so, to be able to prove your worth to your market, you will need to ensure that you build a loyal customer base with your unique baked goods that might start with your family members, friends and neighbors.
Marketing your bakery business is one way by which the major part of your revenue is going to come from and so it is necessary that you draft effective marketing strategies that would allow you to not only penetrate your target market and capture their attention but also to have a fair share of the market and compete favorably against your competitors.
Before drafting your marketing strategies, it is very important that you know who your target market is and understand their needs before striving to meet those needs and this can only be done once a market survey has taken place. A market survey is very important because it will take several factors such as your location, your product, your target market and your competitors into consideration.
After conducting a market survey, you would need to ensure that you create a compelling profile for your company and even for yourself. It is important to allow your customers and stakeholders know if you have any qualifications and experience as it would allow you to have an edge over your competitors. The profile of your company will also help boost your chances in the market place especially when it comes to bidding for jobs from certain institutions.
Therefore, some of the platforms that you will need in order to market your bakery business in the United States of America are;
- Ensure that you introduce your bakery business formally to the corporate target market and other stakeholders by sending a brochure with the picture and description of what you do and their prices with your contact information attached
- Ensure that your bakery business is listed in local directories (yellow pages) as well as online directories
- Ensure that your bakery business is advertised in local newspapers and food magazines as well as on radio and television stations
- Empower your marketing and sales executives to engage in direct marketing and sales on behalf of your bakery
- Use the internet and social media platforms – such as Facebook, Twitter, Instagram and YouTube – to market and grow your business
- Encourage your loyal customers to help spread word about your bakery
One of the competitive strategies that you would require in order to stay ahead of your competitors is to ensure that you offer unique recipes for your baked goods so that customers will always have a reason to patronize your product. Another strategy is to ensure that you offer your customers incentives and discounts on your products whilst also ensuring that your prices are affordable.
Strategies to Boost Your Baking Business Brand Awareness and Create Your Corporate Identity
Every business no matter how long it has been established requires a constant promoting of its brand awareness. The reason why even companies that have had customers and even been in the game for long still engage in publicity and brand awareness campaigns is because it is a way of continually communicating the values of the company as well as what it stands for. Also, publicity ensures an increase in revenue generation.
The internet has however made it very possible for businesses who are new and might not have a large budget like its already established competitors to be able to engage in publicity campaigns that have far reaching effects than would have been possible if using physical strategies only. The internet has also allowed businesses to be able to penetrate the market and get a fair share of the market whilst also favorably competing against its competitors.
However, not all brand awareness campaigns have to be online as one should be able to promote the brand offline as well by ensuring that they advertise in print magazines and also join bakery and other related associations in order to network and have contacts that might be helpful for future purposes.
Below therefore are some of the platforms that can be leveraged on to boost one's brand and increase awareness of one's bakery business;
- Encourage loyal customers to engage in word of mouth publicity
- Ensure that adverts are placed in local newspapers and magazines as well as on radio and television stations
- Make use of the internet and social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, YouTube Linkedin and Instagram to increase awareness and also promote the baking business
- Distribute handbills and fliers in strategic locations around the area where the bakery is
- Create an official and interactive website and employ Search Engine Optimization (SEO) strategies in order to pull traffic to the site
- Ensure that the official car and other attires worn by the staff during work hours are branded with a unique logo

Goldman Sachs has announced that it will be diving into its own pocket to trade bitcoin futures on its client's behalf.
The New York Times reported that the new trading operation initiative has been officially signed off by the bank's board of directors, although the exact time in which the launch of the project is to take place is yet to be confirmed.
According to the report, the bank will also aim to "create its own, more flexible version of a future, known as a non-deliverable forward, which it will offer to clients".
The company, who is not afraid to express interest in cryptocurrency, has referred to virtual currencies as "real money" in the past.
Goldman Sachs' decision to take the risk and dip its toes into cryptocurrency stemmed from a number of clients expressing interest in bitcoin and cryptocurrencies as alternative assets, according to Rana Yared, Goldman's executive.
She explained that it "resonates with [them] when a client says, 'I want to hold bitcoin or bitcoin futures because I think it is an alternate store of value'".
Justin Schmidt, Goldman Sachs' first "digital asset trader", was hired two weeks' prior in order to handle day-to-day operations. The hiring of Schmidt, who has a history in trading cryptocurrency, was first reported by Tearsheet and the creation of the position marks a big step in the direction Goldman is looking to go.
Yared said, with regards to the new hire, that Schmidt "will initially be placed on Goldman's foreign currency desk because Bitcoin trading has the most similarity to movements in emerging market currencies" and is has been noted that Schmidt will be moving to trading actual Bitcoin if the bank is able to lock in the necessary regulatory approval from the Federal Reserve and New York authorities.
Goldman Sachs is aware that this move is not one made with any sort of guarantee of success and Yared has acknowledged that the business might be risky, saying that it "is not a new risk that we don't understand… It is just a heightened risk that we need to be extra aware of here."
