Business Owners - Formal Training Or Not?
Business By FairyCakeLuv Updated 5 May 2011 , 9:56pm by FairyCakeLuv
I have only been baking for about a year or so. I really started doing alot of baking from scratch over the past few months with my mom. We have had several comments from friends, family and co-workers that we should start a business. Neither one of us has gone to school for baking.
With all the raves we are getting, we have definitely thought about it.
I am just wondering how many bakers out there with a business have had professional training or if its just something they are good at. We are taking some Wilton decorating classes next month.
I have been doing alot of research on opening a business, so you may also see some more questions from me
on the decorating side, I am totally self taught. Not one cake class in my life. while it is possible to do it on your own, there are lots of things I haven't done that I'd like to take a class to know how to do them. Add'l training or education is never a bad thing.
On the business side, I ran my own wedding biz some years ago (20+). In addition, I had decades of corporate background and experience under my belt that gave me business skills in HR, purchasing, logistics, planning, office management, customer service and cust svc management, accounting, bookkeeping, etc.
But again .... add'l training or education is never a bad thing! When you have the opportunity, either for formal classroom training, seminars, or just listening to someone who has been in biz for years .... take the opportunity and absorb it all!
I also have had this question before. I almost started a cupcake biz with a friend and no matter what i read and researched i feel that i still didnt know enough to take the risk. but then again i dont have the training and background as indydebi. the thing about me is that i knew that i didnt know, unlike my partner who had even less clue but thought she was ready
the thing about me is that i knew that i didnt know,
and THAT can be the greatest asset of all! I've told a number of friends, "As much as I knew, as much background as I had, there was still a lot of on-the-job learning that I went thru!
That's why I advocate all of the training and educ one can get ahold of. Its a constant learning process!
It really depends on how you learn and what you want to offer. If you're just going to focus on decorated cakes you are probably fine with Wilton decorating classes. If you want to expand your repertoire to include more premium pastries or you are focusing on a specialty market some formal training might be useful. For example, my wife (who does all the baking for our business) completed a formal baking and pastry program at a local culinary school, and it has helped quite a bit in terms of the specialty baking required for our business (we focus on allergy-friendly cakes: vegan/gluten-free/soy-free/etc.).
Don't forget business training. I handle the business side for our bakery, and my day job for the past 8 years has been related to finance so I have some background there. I completed my MBA last year and the classes have been very helpful in running the business, especially the entrepreneurship, tax, marketing, and operations management courses. You don't need an MBA though, many community colleges offer basic versions of these types of business classes.
Formal training for me. MBA + Pastry chef.(culinary school)
I didn't know you hold an MBA, too, Leah! I'm about to graduate with a Bachelors in Business Management and a Bachelors in Business Administration. Honestly, I have learned nothing that I didn't already know from earning my Associates in Business Management and if these last two classes go well, I'll graduate Summa Cum Laude.
I think business knowledge is a must for any business owner. Whether you attain it formally or through self-directed learning doesn't matter as long as you are thorough. I feel the same way about decorating and baking knowledge. I love to learn and would love to take culinary courses but it's not in the budget. Gotta pay for all those other college loans first.
i wish i would've known i was going to want to spend my life caking when i started college, i'm about to graduate with my bachelor of science in engineering and its not going to help me one bit :/ people always say "well it'll help with the structure of the cake!" but i'm like no, intro to engineering course my freshman year would have helped. all my upper courses are strength of materials, steel, concrete, hvac, ect- no help at all haha! that being said, i'm hoping to take a few pastry classes once i move to austin bc i'd really like some formal training maybe i'll take a few business classes too.... lol
Just remember that 80% of new businesses fail. Lack of business knowledge is probably the biggest cause. Until I came to this site, I had not come across businesses started by people who were not masters of their trade. Many business owners are experts at what they produce and go into business thinking their product knowledge will be enough. On this site, we see many people who are not master bakers or decorators, and who also have little business experience. This opens up two problems. Not only does the person suffer from lack of business experience, but they are ill-equipped when new competition opens with a better product.
Both business and product knowledge are a must. Be as good as, if not better than all of your competition. If you don't have business education, community college and adult education are a good place to start. Do everything you can to stay out of that 80%.
My business should be open in July (fingers crossed) and Its going in the back of my home. I haven't had any formal training but I'm aware of the economy so not only am i studying for myself I'm going back to school for business and art cause I not only want to keep ahead of my comp. but there's alot more to a cake business than cake. I start school next month I hope. Plus I'm taking sculpting classes and stuff that I can find around my town. I'm nervous but I've spent 4 years trying to get my ducks in a row and I don't want to get into something over my head. I have 3 kids that depend on me so I can't fail. If this is what you want try to educate yourself any way you can
scp1127, I couldn't have said it better myself!
I have a business background in accounting, sales and marketing, and my product was not something people were hot to buy. I hated my past life, and I hated finding new and improved ways to create need for the crap my company was selling... but it paid the bills.
It sounds like I was in a similar circumstance as you - no formal pastry school, no decorating classes, never even worked in food service before, but my cakes rocked. I decided to go for it. BUT - I am a really fast learner, I already had a knack for art, I can book-learn without sitting in a classroom, and I already had an understanding of baking. Add that to having 17 years of a business background and I've managed to do OK in my 1st year. But I spent a lot of time doing my homework: committing to a vision and mission statement (organic scratch baker), studying my local market for viability, determining a need in the marketplace, identifying my potential customer base and what their median income level is to see if they'd be able to afford my vision, figuring out local laws, micro-managing my start-up costs, perfecting my recipes to be consistent weather I make 12 cupcakes or a 100 person wedding cake, etc. I am constantly trying to improve my decorating skills and practicing all the time.
It sounds all well, good and romantic to just make cake for people, but this actually really really hard and really easy to loose money and fail. But if you are smart about it and really believe in your product, you can succeed!
Best of luck,
I have a Master's in Communication and am always keeping up with my sales education via books, seminars, workshops etc. I'm self-taught as a cake decorator/ designer.
Thanks for all the input. I really hadn't given it much thought to do some business classes, it sounds like it sure would help! I do have some background in finance/accounting/sales, but I could use some more training for sure. I think if I took some more classes and worked on my baking for a little while longer, I could be in good shape. I am definitely going to give it time and alot of thought before I just dive into it though. It is a huge step to take!
There are a lot of great bakers who have no formal training. And there are a lot who have been to school. I think personally for me, baking is something I've been doing since I was little. It comes naturally. I love all things food related. I took a couple local classes and hit the ground running. I want to go and get my pastry certificate just to have a more refined look as well as learn some classes about management and payroll and all that. I think it would just give me a better idea. I don't think there is ANYTHING wrong with getting in the kitchen and just letting the frosting fly! A lot of learning is trial and error and some of that you can't learn at school. And I also think that there is ALWAYS room for more learning.
FromScratch, I actually did not answer the OP's question. I have a double major in accounting (concentration in cost) and economics (again, concentration in business production). When I was younger, I owned my own marketing company, concentrating on small business. When print media started its decline, I followed my first love, rehabbing houses. I got my contractor's license, and through a weird turn of events, it became an interior framing company for five major subdivisions outside DC. Then I fell off of a ladder and broke a vertebrae. My husband (also my doctor) told me he didn't want to keep putting me back together, and encouraged me to become a SAHM about three years ago. Dream job, right? I hated it. So this idea of an artisan bakery was born.
I have education and three susscessful businesses behind me. I come from an entire family of incredible southern cooks. The baking came naturally. The decorating, I have had to learn in the last two years.
From studying the internet, I am finding a huge growing market of incredible bakers, raising the bar in this industry daily. Anyone who cannot keep up may find themselves out of business in a few years. This industry will become saturated, and those who offer the best product at the best price will survive.
My best advice is to be a master at your profession, keep a close eye on this changing market, and never stop learning.
I had some business training in that I had worked as a manager at a large department store in Boston, but I don't have formal business training otherwise.
Remember that baking and running a business are two entirely different skill sets. I wrote a book about starting a home business, and one person wrote to thank me after reading it because she said that she realized that she wasn't ready to start a business! That wasn't the result that I had anticipated, but I think it makes the point that a lot of people go into starting a business thinking that they're going to ahave fun doing what they like to do, and then they notice that there's paperwork involved!
costumeczar, I purchased your book even though you said it may not be what I needed. There is one thing you stressed that is relevant to all of us. Be mindful of time management, especially on the things we like to put off... like the books. I may have been an accounting major, but it doesn't mean I like it. I just knew its importance.
It really would be a good idea for those in the planning stage to get costumeczar's book on amazon.com. She will have to chime in here because I forgot her real name. If she doesn't see this, I will get my book out and post the name and author. It is only about $12.00 if I remember correctly.
Well thank you very much! I'm glad that you got something out of it. I also hate paperwork day, it's tedious but it has to be done. You can go to my blog to get info about the book. I have one page dedicated to it. They also might be printing an excerpt in American Cake Decorating in an upcoming issue.

Starting up on any type of business should always be given much thought because it not only requires deep interest but it also involves a lot of your time and money, not to mention the patience that you have to offer. You definitely have that passion to always innovate since you have a lot of competitors to think about. You can always join classes that could help you with opening up a business until you're ready. I took my time to really educate myself because I really find it important to be able to strive in the restaurant business. Hope all goes well with your plans. Goodluck!
I have a Bachelor's Degree in Advertising and worked in the field for six years (most local restaurants) so that has helped me tremendously. But when I quit I didn't feel ready to just jump out there so I went to my city college's Hospitality Management program where I learned so much (food service, accounting, cooking, formal baking, etc) and actually got an Associate's Degree. The great part was that since they transferred in all my credits from my undergrad, I only had to take the culinary and baking related classes...it was the best time I ever had in school (besides a Bachelor's I also have a Master's in Corporate Communication).
I worked my way up at a custom cake company from just a decorator/baker to kitchen manager. That helped b/c I was able to see things from the employee side as well as owner side. I got experience in purchasing, ordering, inventory, time management, customer service...the whole thing. I was also able to see what mistakes where made and now I can try to avoid them myself.
Overall, all my experiences have helped me in my business because I now know how to run things they way I want to and really don't have to guess too much...but I still do guess on some things b/c frankly, there's always something new and you just have to learn to roll with the punches.
My advice to you in regards to the baking part would be to try to find an internship or a job in a bakery...just to get acclimated to how they function...sometimes people realize they don't want to deal with the hassle that owners have to...sometimes people just want to do the baking and decorating and then be able to go home and relax.
The business part...you definitely have to count up the costs...both financially and personal (I currently have no life). It's a scary investment and honestly sometimes I feel extremely overwhelmed and there have been a couple of times where I've said to myself (at 3am)...I must have been out of my mind...LOL!
Not trying to dissuade you but wanted to hopefully give you a glimpse of at least my experience.
HTH...best of luck!
This was a very informative topic! We've been debating whether or not to open ours up as a business or just as a cottage seller. I am going back to school this fall to get my Associates in Business Management (I only have 2 semesters left for my associates) Then I've thought about going back to get either my Bachelors in Business Management, or apply for the culinary school to have more formal training there. To me, I feel like having some type of degree is important, but it is also important to be 'book smart' and 'street smart' I am so far all self taught and have only been decorating for almost a year.
My degree is in biochemistry and music. Not really baking material. For that I had the years growing up and watching my mom and aunt bake in Brazil. Then I went to the Cake Decorators Academy of YouTube lol and that has been my "formal" decorator training. I been a nail salon business owner for 25 years and that gave me a little bit of business experience but just the basics. I just finished setting up my cake business ( FINALLY LEGAL)!!!!!!! yayyyyy!!!!!! And I know I will need some help there. Between my comom sense, my lawyer and my accountant I will pull it off. ( maybe I need someone to help with my spelling too)
After 30 years of cooking and baking, a couple of college degrees, and running my own travel business, I went to pastry school and started a third career. School changed virtually nothing about how I baked or decorated, but it gave me some validation in the eyes of my target market and gave me confidence that I knew what I was doing. That being said, it cost a fortune and I think it would have served me better had I taken the relevant courses at the local community college like buttercuppie said. Those include marketing, food theory, large batch baking, etc.
The school I attended did everything in small batches and taught almost no theory. Decorating was definitely not a thrust. I learned that more from Cake Camp and traveling to take courses with Earlene Moore, Ron Ben Israel, Lori Ann Belthen, etc. If you do decide on formal training, make sure you really check out the school and that the curriculum includes the business part, which takes more time than the decorating. Somewhere I read that if you start a business, you only spend 15 percent of your time doing the thing that your business is for. Every time I'm mopping the floor, doing the dishes, or writing a check to pay a bill I think about that. The amount of time all that "other stuff" takes is something they mostly don't talk about at school.
I have a comunications College Degree and Fashion Design. I took just a few Wilton
Courses. The rest has been hands on training, trial an error. Lots of years doing it.
The success of a cake business will come not only by running well your bussiness, but
by doing clean work that will attract more customers and knowing how and where to market.
If I had to choose between culinary and business degrees, I probably woul rather do the business
There is one point we haven't mentioned. The level of education becomes more important as the level of investment increases. Anyone considering a storefront should not only have the education, but also experience. Not necessarily ownership, but at least upper management with a concentration in accounting and employee law.
If you plan to borrow money, you should have the same education as above.
If you are using savings to open from your house, there is little risk. The education will be a factor in how much money you will make.
If you are one of those people who ask how much to charge for a cake, how to find the health department requirements for your area, or how much it costs to get started, you are definitely not ready to be a business owner. The baking industry is no different than any other business. After you complete your mission statement, you gather information for your business plan. You must scout your competition, get contractor bids after you find your location, get icensed, check into taxes, insurance, cost for marketing, etc.. Someone with business experience does not ask these questions, they already know how to find the answers.
The last area is competition. You want to be able to keep up with, and hopefully surpass your competition. Education and experience are a must here. And I have said this before... this market will get saturated. This is evident by how many new businesses are on the internet with sites, blogs, etc.. Some baking businesses will fail in this saturation. Those with good business sense will survive.
FairyCakeLuv, as many posters have said, creating great baked goods or turning out incredible cakes is only part of owning a business. I began a home-based baking business more than thirty years ago. I had no business experience and the learning curve was steep. Make sure you understand the daily reality of running a business AND the reality of working with food. It's not the same as enjoying a hobby.
Good luck, Mimi
No formal business training for me....or decorating classes... totally self taught. My business is going good so far. I suggest starting out small, doing just enough to be legal. That way you're not trying to keep your head above water with tons of overhead. I was lucky enough to have a house that belonged to my grandparents that I was able to remodel for my bakery. I had saved about half the money for the remodeling.
I wish I had more experience when it comes to taxes though
I think I will answer to this one I am 100% self taught on culinary and business. I WANT so bad to take decorating and culinary classes, and I am begging my husband to finish his MBA to run the business side for me Did you know that the majority of self-made millionaires never had formal training? Yep! They found something they loved, researched it on their own, and worked VERY hard to make their dream make money! With that being said, if you have the opportunity to have formal training take it! Think of it as an alternate to learning the hard way LOL! (not that any of its easy, but I hope you get my point )

Keywords..working hard for something that you love!
I have alot of great replies here - thanks so much!
I definitely have alot to think about. I'm just starting my decorating classes this week. Once I get the hang of that, I think I am going to look into the business side. I also have my mom very interested in this with me, too. We are just taking our time, doing lots of research and making sure we know what we are doing before we dive into anything!
I think it would be great for me to get a job in a bakery first as well. I have been at my office job for 14 years So I think that is something I will look into as well. Congrats to all of you who have succeeded!

Louisiana financial regulators were ordered Tuesday by state District Judge Mike Caldwell to open records of their handling of Stanford Trust Co. to attorneys for investors who lost savings to Houston promoter Robert Allen Stanford's firms.
The state Office of Financial Institutions cannot withhold records labeled as "work product," Caldwell ruled. Officials also cannot withhold records related to their "deliberative process" in the Stanford case, which federal authorities say cost approximately 25,000 investors in more than 100 countries more than $7 billion.
Caldwell also said OFI officials cannot use the shield of attorney-client privilege to withhold records about the Stanford case unless those documents actually relate to attorney advice on how to prepare for litigation or proceed with it. OFI officials who also happen to be attorneys simply cannot be copied on e-mails and letters as a means of hiding those records from public scrutiny, the judge said.
In a related matter, a Stanford whistleblower's testimony before Congress on May 13 contradicts OFI's court filings in the Baton Rouge case.
Caldwell's complicated case revolves around investor allegations that OFI and SEI Investments Co., of Pennsylvania, ignored evidence of massive fraud.
SEI, hired by Stanford Trust for accounting and reporting services, has denied those allegations.
OFI has stated that it had no duty to protect investors from risk and that its officials didn't receive fraud allegations against Stanford's widespread programs until the Securities and Exchange Commission shut his businesses down in February 2009.
Stanford, 61, has been in federal custody since June 2009, when he was indicted in Houston for allegedly planning the gigantic fraud.
Phil Preis, a Baton Rouge attorney for scores of Stanford investors, estimates that as much as $1 billion was lost by Louisiana residents who allowed retirement savings at Stanford Trust to be assigned as certificates of deposit for Stanford International Bank on the Caribbean island of Antigua.
Preis and law partner Chuck Gordon have argued in court filings that OFI had a responsibility to protect the interests of those investors.
In documents filed with Caldwell in March, however, attorneys for OFI argued federal law prohibited the state agency from reviewing the certificates of deposit before they were issued by Stanford International Bank. Only after those securities were sold by advisers for Stanford Group Co. and placed with Stanford Trust for management did OFI's responsibility begin, the agency's attorneys argued.
"OFI's only authority with respect to those securities was to enforce its anti-fraud statutes had it become aware of fraud, deceit or other unlawful conduct," wrote those attorneys, David M. Latham, Keary L. Everitt and Marie G. Everitt.
The Louisiana Attorney General's Office hired the law firm of Everitt, Latham & Pratt to represent OFI.
"OFI received no complaints regarding any of the (certificates of deposit) prior to the SEC taking action in February 2009," OFI attorneys wrote Caldwell.
But testimony given in Washington, D.C., on May 13 by a Stanford whistleblower contradicts OFI's statement of when it received complaints about Stanford.
Charles W. Rawl testified before the House Financial Services Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigations.
Rawl told members of Congress that fellow whistleblower Mark Tidwell joined Stanford Group Co. in 2004. Rawl said he joined Stanford the next year.
Both men became concerned by what they believed to be corrupt practices at Stanford, Rawl testified. They resigned in December 2007, he said.
Rawl testified that he and Tidwell then expressed their concerns to the Securities and Exchange Commission in January 2008.
Rawl said he then went to state Attorney General Buddy Caldwell and OFI.
"In late summer 2008, the Louisiana Office of Financial Institutions took action against (Stanford Trust Co.) by stopping the sale of Stanford International Bank (certificates of deposit) in Individual Retirement Accounts," Rawl testified.
"Importantly, the state ordered (Stanford Trust Co.) to remove the CDs from IRAs," Rawl added.
"We have spoken to IRA holders who attempted to place more money in the CDs in the latter half of 2008," Rawl testified. He said those investors could not complete those transactions "because the Louisiana OFI would not allow it because of the allegations we brought to their attention."
Judge Caldwell said Tuesday that a hearing will be held in October on the Stanford investors' request for certification of their suit against OFI and SEI as a class action.
If granted, that certification would permit the 86 plaintiffs in the pending suit to represent all Stanford investors in Louisiana except for any who choose to opt out of the litigation.

Recently I cleared out all of my devices and scan rules and started fresh as we shrank our HUGE class B subnet to several class C's and upgraded to all new Cisco Switches from the old 3coms that didn't play nice with spiceworks.
Everything seemed to work fine at first but it seems to keep adding duplicate records for servers. The old records are detailed and accurate and have no errors but the new records have WMI no ports open errors. I look a the last scan time and the new record is current and the old record shows several days since it was scanned. The serial numbers are different but the MAC and IP are the same on the two records.
Nothing is changing on these servers (that I am aware of). The firewalls are on but have a group policy allowing all the needed ports for spiceworks. My servers are mostly VMWare VM's inside of ESXi 4.1 and most are windows 2k8R2. My Veeam Backup server is physical however and duplicated last night.
The duplicates seem to be only servers and not network switches, routers and firewalls.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

Try steps 1-3 of this guide and see if it helps.

Incremental was already disabled but I changed scan speed to slow and send only deltas to false and ran a new scan. The scan took about 50 minutes but didn't create duplicates and the "stale" records now show a current scan time.
I'll see what happens tonight on the scheduled scan. Thanks for your help.

NEW YORK (MainStreet) — There are jobs beyond Walmart and McDonald's for retirees. That is good news, because the evidence is plentiful that many of us -- most of us, in some surveys -- lack a credible plan for a comfortable retirement and, for sure, lots of us lack the savings.
Enter the part-time job, and a loud grumble of many retirees is that all they can find is minimum wage work and, money aside, the jobs are boring. But know this: they just are not looking hard enough. In fact many retirees are working at exactly what they want and making decent money.
Doing what? Here are five jobs to covet.
Travel agent. When Lynn Lewis retired as a San Francisco school teacher, she knew she wanted to keep working, and she also knew she wanted to travel. So she now is a travel consultant with Expedia CruiseShipCenters in Petaluma, Calif. Her job boils down to helping callers pick the cruise product that works for them, and she works 18 hours a week. "I could work more hours, but 18 is right for me," she says. She did not offer her income but did say she makes more than she would at Walmart. (The Bureau of Labor Statistics says travel agents make on average $16+ per hour.) Oh, and there are perks: she just got back from a free 17-day cruise from England to Italy and back.
Real estate agent. Bruce Ailion, Realtor and attorney with RE/MAX Town and Country in Atlanta, said he's had a number of retirees in his office. He added: "As an agent when you list a property, you have every agent in the market working to sell it and generate a commission for you."
Different companies have different splits. But if a house sells for $200,000, there typically is $12,000 in commissions, divvied up between two agencies. Usually there's another split in each agency (where the agency and a broker get a cut). The realtor probably gets about $3,000. How many hours do you have to work at McDonald's to earn $3,000?
The job skills: knowing the neighborhoods, enjoying talking with people and driving from house to house. Said Aillon: "Working with buyers, you can pick the number of buyers to work with at a time. I had agents that worked full time part of the time. They would work with three to six buyers over a two-month period, sell four to five homes and then take two to three months off traveling. Few other activities allow this much control over your time and income."
He added that the barrier to entry is low. Take a course - probably 75 to 125 hours (often they are heavily discounted on Groupon and LivingSocial). Then pass a state exam and you are in.

text: IKEA announced plans to install three Blink® electric vehicle (EV) charging stations at its future Memphis, Tennessee store opening on December 14, 2016. (Photo: Business Wire)"Installing EV charging stations at the future IKEA Memphis reinforces our commitment to sustainability," said store manager Trisha Bevering. "As a retailer, IKEA realizes a focus on sustainable transport of people can help empower customers to live sustainably. So, meeting the needs of EV drivers helps achieve both goals." To charge an EV at the future IKEA Memphis, drivers can tap their Blink InCard (RFID card) to the reader below the screen, initiate the session directly from the Blink Mobile application, or use a guest code provided via the Blink Mobile app, www.BlinkCode.com, or Blink Customer Support (888-998-2546). Once the session is initiated, drivers can plug the charger into the EV, and then shop and eat at their leisure in the IKEA store while the vehicle is charging. EV drivers can become a Blink member, which is free and typically provides discounted charging fees at Blink EV charging stations. More information about how to use the Blink EV charging stations and becoming a Blink Member is available at blinknetwork.com. Drawing from its Swedish heritage and respect of nature, IKEA believes it can do good business while minimizing impacts on the environment. Globally, IKEA evaluates locations for conservation opportunities, integrates innovative materials into product design, works to maintain sustainable resources, and flat-packs goods for efficient distribution. Specific U.S. sustainable efforts include: recycling waste material; incorporating environmental measures into buildings with energy-efficient HVAC and lighting systems, recycled construction materials, skylights in warehouse areas, and water-conserving restrooms; and operationally, eliminating plastic bags from the check-out process, and selling only LED bulbs. Consistent with the goal of being energy independent by 2020, IKEA has installed more than 700,000 solar panels on buildings across the world and owns approximately 300 wind turbines, including 104 in the U.S.

Forward scattering from square cylinders in the resonance region with application to aperture blockage
- Authors:
- Abstract:
- The relationship between the induced field ratio (IFR) of a cylinder and aperture blocking of a constant-phase aperture by cylindrical struts is discussed. An analytical technique is presented whereby the IFR of rectangular cylinders can be calculated using the method-of-moments with internal constraint points. An experimental technique using a forward-scattering range is used to measure the IFR's of square and circular cylinders in an anechoic chamber. These experimental results are compared with the theory, and their implications on aperture blocking losses and boresight cross polarization are discussed.

Genital warts are pretty unexciting, unappealing and have a pretty ugly name, but the human papilloma virus (HPV) is the leading cause of cervical cancer in women, and is also suspected in anal cancers. It also causes actual warts, but only in certain strains. The infection is cleared by your immune system in one or two years usually.
Over 80 per cent of women will have been infected with at least one strain of HPV before they turn 50 – no symptoms doesn't mean not infected, and infected doesn't mean certain death or cancer.
Genital warts and HPV are caused by strains of the same virus, and that is something that nobody likes to talk about – women are reluctant to say they have HPV because it means they have the wart virus, but it doesn't actually mean they have warts. That is why you often hear the distinction between "HPV" and "genital warts". They are the same thing, more or less, but have different manifestations.
A vaccine is available, but only if you have never been sexually active (and therefore possibly been in contact with the virus). Once you've been in contact with it, your immune system has already started to process it and create antibodies, so the vaccine is useless.
Warts (and skin changes) can occur on the genitals, but also on the cervix, vagina, anus, rectum and throat. These changes increase the risk of certain types of cancers. Some types of HPV can cause genital warts and cancer.
HPV – non-physical-warts variety
HPV of the no-physical-warts varieties (generally types 16 and 18) cause cancer, and it doesn't matter how old you are. Early 20's are not a fine time to die of cervical cancer, so the minute you are sexually active (even just touching genitals – it's passed by skin-to-skin contact, not body fluids), you need to be getting regular (1-2 yearly) pap smears. No exceptions.
Eight out of ten people have HPV and it can be spread with a dirty finger, the brush of a thigh or other barely-there touching. Use condoms. There are over 100 strains of wart virus, with only some affecting the genitals and fewer again causing actual warts to appear.
HPV – physical warts variety
These warts are most often caused by HPV 6 and 11. You might see warts around your anus, vagina, inside the vagina, urethra or in your anal canal, or even in your throat. A doctor will find the hard-to-reach places.
Symptoms of physical genital warts
- When they pop up, they start as very small, soft, moist pink or grey growths
- Once further developed, they may be flat, raised, single or a floret, or look like cauliflower
- Grow in clusters of irregular bumps
- May have stalks
- May cause burning pain
- They grow fast
- May itch or cause discomfort
Fast facts of physical genital warts
- They often don't hurt
- You can carry HPV in your system but not have any warts
- HPV can be passed on via oral sex (less common), but is spread by direct skin-to-skin contact during vaginal or anal sex
- Transmission is by physical contact
- Warts might pop up weeks or months (or never) after contact with an infected person
- Infection may occur after direct contact with a visible wart or contact with genital skin where the virus is present.
Treating physical warts
Treatment for physical genital warts doesn't rid you of the virus, just of the visible warts, though your immune system will usually get rid of the virus by itself over time unless you are immune compromised (such as in HIV or chronic illness).
Wart treatments from the pharmacy are not suitable for genital warts, so forget it. They will probably need to be frozen off using cryotherapy (liquid nitrogen/dry ice). You will likely need more than one treatment. Other treatments include podophyllotoxin, a lotion you use at home (not for pregnant women), or other creams or laser treatment.
Treating abnormal cells of the cervix
Treating the HPV that affects your cervix may need more invasive work if the cell changes are advanced and do not resolve by itself. The strain that causes physical warts does not cause cervical changes.
Preventing HPV spread
Gardasil is the vaccine against certain strains of HPV, particularly a couple that cause cancer. Both boys and girls can get the vaccine. The vaccine is quite controversial, since it has one of the highest adverse event rates of any vaccine ever.
Condoms are not that effective against the spread of HPV because they do not cover all the skin, but they definitely help.
Pap tests help prevent cervical cancer
Getting regular pap smears means you can catch any cell changes early, and take action before you get cancer. There are certain changes that occur leading up to actual cancer, and these can be treated usually using surgical techniques to actually remove the cells. This leaves the cervix intact, and all reproductive facilities available.
Pregnant women and those with HIV may see rapid growth of warts.
Your doctor will examine you, and if the warts are internal, a colposcopy may be recommended. Genital warts are pretty classic in their appearance and are easy to diagnose.
Any wart that bleeds, looks unusual, develops into a sore or ulcer, or remains after treatment will need to be removed surgically and checked for cancer. Syphilis can also cause genital warts, so a blood test will often be taken for syphilis.
A pap smear will be done if the warts on on the cervix to check for cervical cell abnormalities. If anything is found, checks should be performed every six months to catch any changes early.

Submissions and categories
Journalists are encouraged to submit their own work via our online submission form. RNAO members are also invited to nominate journalists, but must do so with the journalist's support.
Stories are scored by an independent panel of judges consisting of nurses and journalists. Categories are announced in the fall of each year, and include awards for daily newspaper, community newspaper, magazine, radio, television and online publications.
- Entries must have been published or broadcast in Ontario.
- All entries must be submitted before the deadline via the online submission form
- Limit of one entry per person. Entrants may not submit a single entry to multiple categories.
- Winners of the previous year's awards are not eligible.
- Trade publications, textbooks, or video/audio productions intended for health-care practitioners or audiences are not eligible.
- Entries must be journalistic in nature, based on research and interviews. Opinion pieces and academic articles are not eligible.
- Materials prepared by RNAO staff or staff of health-related associations are ineligible.
- Entries in the Online, best story category must be published on a website that covers news and/or current events.
Additional rules:
- There is no entry fee.
- Information in your application could be used by RNAO when publicizing the awards competition.
- If nominating a story on behalf of a journalist, you must inform the nominee prior to submission.
- A benchmark cumulative score will be determined before judging commences, and winning entries must surpass this predetermined score to be eligible. If no article in a particular category surpasses this benchmark, no award shall be given out.
Winners are announced in spring, and are honoured at RNAO's annual general meeting, which regularly takes place in the spring.

How do we prevent the mail.box file from becoming corrupted?

Lotus Domino Server 5
We have Domino R5.0.11 on Windows 2000 server and Norton Antivirus Corporate Edition 7.01. For the last few days, we have seen a problem that the mail.box file is corrupt: "SMTP Server: Error opening mail box: Database is corrupt -- Cannot allocate space."

It could be a number of things, but NAV Corporate is not NAV for Domino. NAV cannot scan Domino files on the fly. Only NAV for Domino can. I would start by excluding your Domino directory from being scanned. If that cures your issue, look into buying NAV for Domino. If you are still getting corruptions, you will need to look elsewhere, such as malformed headers in messages.

Studying in the UK – as told by international students [video]
Our roving reporter Charlotte Racher caught up with international students at the University of Westminster to find out more about their study experiences in the UK.
Our roving reporter Charlotte Racher caught up with international students at the University of Westminster to find out more about their study experiences in the UK.
If you're an international student, leaving your home country to study in the UK is a big decision. You're suddenly separated from friends, family and everything you've ever known. As scary as this may seem, it's also exciting to know that you'll have brand new experiences and meet new friends. Who better to give you advice than international students themselves?
I spoke to five students from all over the world, currently studying at the most culturally diverse UK university, the University of Westminster. Each of them was thrilled that they made the decision to move and value the number of opportunities available to them in the UK.
Hear from Omar from Portugal, Delmar from Australia, Alina from Romania, Tooba from Pakistan and Aylin from Turkey...
"I've been very lucky and very fortunate to find friends here that don't make me as homesick as I would be without them." – Tooba, Pakistan.
"It's hard, but it's not nearly as hard as you think it might be." – Delmar, Australia.
"Freshers week helps a lot." – Aylin, Turkey.
As an English student, I have felt enriched by the presence of our international students. You may think studying in the UK will either be like Hogwarts or you'll be in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by cows. But it's neither, particularly if you study in London or a major city. The UK is filled with opportunities and wonderful people.
Would you like to follow in the footsteps of Omar, Delmar, Alina, Tooba and Aylin? What are you waiting for? Start your UK adventure and search for courses now!
I'm a second-year student at the University of Westminster, studying Journalism. I struggle to walk without tripping over but I love writing on my personal blog Tequilher with friendly comedic advice and I appreciate anything food related but mainly the thing itself. When I'm not writing for Hotcourses Abroad, you can usually find me tilting my head to romantic-comedies, stroking a cat and eating sweets but other than that I'm super cool.

Brazilian police are searching for a World Cup hospitality company director declared a fugitive by officers investigating a ticket scalping scheme.
Police say Ray Whelan, an executive with the MATCH group, left Rio de Janeiro's Copacabana Palace through a service entrance on Thursday about an hour before police arrived to re-arrest him.
Police accuse Whelan of being a main source of World Cup tickets that were sold to an Algerian national they say is the biggest scalper for the sport's marquee tournament.
The MATCH group has denied any wrongdoing by Whelan, and said he was willing to cooperate with any investigation.
Under Brazilian law, reselling tickets for sporting events above face value is illegal.

FormsAuthenticationEventHandler Delegate
Represents the method that handles the FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event of a FormsAuthenticationModule.
Assembly: System.Web (in System.Web.dll)
public delegate void FormsAuthenticationEventHandler( Object^ sender, FormsAuthenticationEventArgs^ e )
- sender
The source of the event.
- e
A FormsAuthenticationEventArgs that contains the event data.
The FormsAuthenticationEventHandler delegate is defined for the Authenticate event of the FormsAuthenticationModule class. You can access the Authenticate event of the FormsAuthenticationModule class by specifying a subroutine named FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate in the Global.asax file for your ASP.NET application. The Authenticate event is raised during the AuthenticateRequest event.
The FormsAuthenticationModule constructs a FormsAuthenticationEventArgs object using the current HttpContext and passes it to the FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event.
You can use the User property of the FormsAuthenticationEventArgs object supplied to the FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event to set the User property of the current HttpContext to a custom IPrincipal object. If you do not specify a value for the User property during the FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event, the identity supplied by the forms authentication ticket in the cookie or URL is used.
The FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event is only raised when the authentication Mode is set to Forms and the FormsAuthenticationModule is an active HTTP module for the application.
The following code example uses the FormsAuthentication_OnAuthenticate event to set the User property of the current HttpContext to a GenericPrincipal object with a custom Identity.
Available since 1.1

iOS 7 kneejerk review: adopting the best of the competition, and that's okay
0. phoneArena posted on 10 Jun 2013, 16:15
Let's get one thing out of the way right off the bat: we absolutely love the look of iOS 7. It may just be that iOS finally looks markedly different from how it has been for the past 5 years, it may be that Apple has finally left behind the hideous skeuomorphism techniques, or it may just be that it reminds us of a mashup between Windows Phone and Google Now. Whatever the reason, we think Apple has done a solid great job of adopting the best of the competition to make something decidedly Apple...

It's only stealing when others do it, Apple is "borrowing" ideas?
2. AnTuTu (Posts: 1580; Member since: 14 Oct 2012)
They wait and watch what other giants bring to the market. And then after couple of years they merge all those features together and say "Innovation".
What a shame.....
45. Hallucinator (Posts: 387; Member since: 24 May 2010)
Kind of like Android did with The iPhone?

112. pixelado (Posts: 130; Member since: 16 Feb 2013)
Wow, you must think you totally owned him, right?
So, tell me, do you really think Android was "inspired" solely and entirely by iOS? Early Android versions looked more like and improved mix of Windows Mobile 6.5 and Symbian if you ask me.
Guess this won't matter to you, but that's fine.
139. techaman (unregistered)
android did none of that the guys wanted a os to go on top of any system use whats there to make it better and faster, iphone copied all other phones and tweeked a few things and gave it a metal back and said owwww wow look at this.
7. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2720; Member since: 26 May 2011)
It's almost never stealing, no matter who does it, as long as it is incorporated into the platform ethos and made a natural part of the experience. It doesn't matter where the idea comes from. I know I'm personally very happy that Android is taking heavily from webOS, because it's making my daily experience better.
As stated above, Apple claiming that features are original when they aren't is the real issue, but that doesn't happen nearly as often as people think.
10. Googler (Posts: 813; Member since: 10 Jun 2013)
That really doesn't explain the plethora of lawsuits Apple has waged though.
15. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2720; Member since: 26 May 2011)
It's not meant to. If your issue is lawsuits, then talk about lawsuits when they happen, and be sure to note in your complaints how the biggest issue with lawsuits is the broken system the USPTO has created.
If you're angry about something, direct that anger where it is due. Anger over lawsuits doesn't detract from the fact that Apple has made solid improvements in iOS 7.
78. deathgod (Posts: 122; Member since: 23 Nov 2011)
I think he's referring more to how apple criticize's others for 'borrowing' and sues, and then goes on to do the same but calls it 'innovation'.
I personally think the new UI looks great and am glad that those that love iOS are getting the features their comp have enjoyed for a while now.
79. AnTuTu (Posts: 1580; Member since: 14 Oct 2012)
What I have learned so far in couple of years in PA that "MichaelHeller" is a die hard Apple fan.
89. Googler (Posts: 813; Member since: 10 Jun 2013)
Little defensive, aren't we. Simple point is this, when someone copies Apple, they end up in court. When Apple copies someone, we get an article from you about how it's okay. I've read tons of comments about you being biased but never really believed them until now. Apple has sued plenty over less things copied than what they revealed today, and it's okay with you. How sad. And it's clear Apple is justified because they are taking advantage of a broken patent system. Sadder still.
For the record though, it's not anger. Not at all. It's disappointment more than anything, but you missed that being so defensive.

your right i mean look at the name iphone was in brazil on a phone before the iphone came out and what happened lawyers and money and courts pushed it to a small corner
135. CellularNinja (Posts: 306; Member since: 27 Sep 2011)
@MichaelHeller I can appreciate what you're trying to do here in defending Apple against all the android fans like myself, there's nothing wrong with that. But I feel like you're telling us what to think way too much. Should people be bringing up Apple's ridiculous lawsuits in this article, maybe not. But replying to all of these comments telling the user what to think and that there opinion is not the right one is not really necessary, and it's kind of annoying. I understand what you're trying to do in defending Apple to keep the peace, but it's getting to be a little too much I think.

let's look at face time,or what we call video calling. apple introduced this as revolutionary and unique to ios,the word face is unique to ios but the functionality which is video calling was on android before,that's stealing.
i do understand & agree when you say "Apple claiming that features are original when they aren't is the real issue"
24. MichaelHeller (Posts: 2720; Member since: 26 May 2011)
and video calling was on PCs before Android, and there were even video calling phones separate from PCs.
38. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
I agree with you Michael that nothing is truly original and everyone copies everyone I just dislike apples hypocrisy, they love to call out when they think someone's cooled them but when they do the same its nothing.. But as I said I completely agree with you.
44. taz89 (Posts: 2014; Member since: 03 May 2011)
Oh yh forget to say that even though I agree with you it doesn't mean apple should'nt be called out for their obvious hypocrisy.
80. someones4 (Posts: 625; Member since: 16 Sep 2012)
I concede the fact that nothing is original and that companies do borrow and build upon each other's feature.
But isn't Apple making it too obvious? As if they are taunting everyone else "Yeah, i copied Google's s*it. What are you guys gonna do about it?"
97. Whodaboss (Posts: 176; Member since: 18 Nov 2011)
Sounds like an apologist to me. Say and write whatever you need to state to make you sleep good at night. But this is total stealing and copying. There's no innovation here. Just plain theft.
98. ncarlosmiguel (Posts: 206; Member since: 14 May 2013)
Apple made a great product no doubt. But they shouldn't shamelessly call it "innovation" then act as if no other product does or have it.

Garlic Mushroom Spread
Recipe by Mamie37
Delicious with good wine for company.
Top Review by Savvy Hostess
I printed this recipe off years ago and finally made it for a cocktail party last night. Bottom line, we all really liked it! However, the recipe is off in a few areas. First, the times listed were not accurate for me at all. The mushrooms didn't give off their liquid or brandy evaporate in times provided. I ended up just playing it by ear. I would suggest slicing the mushrooms so they cook better. The recipe needs much more salt and pepper than the amounts given. I probably doubled both. I am still wondering if the dip is supposed to be served hot (right out of the food processor), chilled or at room temp. I served it slightly warmed with homemade garlic parmesan crostini, which was delicious. I wasn't quite sure what "garlic rounds" were. I will make this again with my modifications. It's different than so many of the party spread recipes out there. Elegant ingredients and flavors...and, yes, GREAT with good wine and good friends!
See Discussion:1 Review
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 lb chopped mixed mushroom
- 4 cloves minced garlic
- 2 tablespoons chopped flat leaf parsley
- 2 tablespoons chopped fresh thyme
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- 1⁄3 cup brandy
- 1⁄2 teaspoon kosher salt
- 1⁄4 teaspoon fresh ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons cream cheese
- 1⁄4 cup shredded gruyere
- 2 tablespoons white wine or 2 tablespoons champagne vinegar
Directions See How It's Made
- Mix the mushrooms, garlic, parsely, and thyme in a large bowl, cover and let sit at room temperature about 2 hours.
- Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan set on high heat until very hot.
- Add the mushroom mixture, turn the heat to med-high and cook about 5 minutes, until all the juices have cooked away, and the mushrooms begin to brown.
- Remove the pan from the heat, add the brandy, return to heat, and cook, stirring until almost evaporated, about 1 minute.
- Transfer to a food processor and add the remaining ingredients.
- Pulse until spreadable, but still a bit chunky.
- Good with toasted garlic rounds.

Names Of 2014 Joop Swart Masterclass Participants Announced
World Press Photo announced the 12 young photographers who have been selected for the 21st edition of the annual World Press Photo Joop Swart Masterclass. The announcement was made during the Awards Days. During the six-day masterclass, to be held from 2- 8 November 2014 in Amsterdam, the participating photographers will interact with six prominent experts, discussing technical and visual aspects of their work, as well as their role as a photographer.
The following 12 photographers - 6 men and 6 women of 10 different nationalities - will participate in the 2014 Joop Swart Masterclass:
• Bego Antón, Spain
• Bryan Denton, USA
• Isadora Kosofsky, USA
• Meeri Koutaniemi, Finland
• Giorgio Di Noto, Italy
• Emilie Regnier, Canada
• Raphaela Rosella, Australia
• Sarker Protick, Bangladesh
• Bryan Schutmaat, USA
• Akos Stiller, Hungary
• Andrejs Strokins, Latvia
• Ilona Szwarc, Poland
Acceptance to the prestigious masterclass is based on a system of nomination and selection. World Press Photo's 120 international nominators selected 141 candidates from 53 countries, who were invited to submit their portfolios. The final selection of the 12 participants was made on Wednesday 23 April by an independent selection committee in Amsterdam. The selection committee consisted of: Peter Dejong (the Netherlands), photographer The Associated Press; Rena Effendi (Azerbaijan), photographer; Tanya Habjouqa (Jordan), photographer; Olivier Laurent (France), associate editor British Journal of Photography and Sarah Leen (USA), director of photography National Geographic.
The selection committee reflected on this year's candidate portfolios:
"Photographers are looking into new ways of telling a story. The work we saw looked more daring - using artifacts, letters, drawings and found objects, to add to the narratives. We saw photographers choosing more intimate and inclusive approaches. There was a tendency for stories with a strong element of mood and poetry. In this sense, we can see photojournalism using a more expansive vernacular, with photographers pushing their personal boundaries and challenging conventions."
Theme: 'irresistible'
In preparation for the masterclass meeting in November, the participants will prepare a themed photo essay, this year revolving around the theme of "irresistible". The essays will be discussed with the masters and edited for publication in Next #04, the fourth edition of the book in the masterclass series, designed by Teun van der Heijden and co-published with Schilt Publishing.
The Joop Swart Masterclass
Since 1994, the Joop Swart Masterclass has brought together some of the finest young photographers from around world, and leading professionals in the fields of documentary photography and photojournalism. It offers a focused, intimate and reflective learning experience to young photographers, aiming to foster their intellectual, artistic and professional growth. The Joop Swart Masterclass holds prime position among the workshops, debates and other educational programs regularly organized within the World Press Photo Academy. It is named after the foundation's late chairman, who was a passionate supporter of young photographic talent.
The masters of the 2014 Joop Swart Masterclass will be announced later this year.

Sheesham Wood Coffee Tables
We list several different styles of sheesham wood coffee table, all of which are made to a fine finish, and all of which are excellent value for money given their wonderful aesthetic appearance and very good quality wood. All of the pieces of furniture listed here are made of sheesham wood and would make great additions to your home. You will note also the good range of design and wood colours available.
Sheesham Wood Dining Tables
Again, we have a nice range of sheesham wood dining table and dining table sets detailed in this section of the site. The dining tables can be purchased individually or, if you prefer, as part of a set, with the relevant number of accompanying sheesham wood chairs. These pieces of wood furniture are beautifully crafted and would make inspiring additions to your family home, and also be something you can proudly display to your family, friends and neighbours.
Sheesham Nest of Tables
The third category section of the site provides three different styles of sheesham wood nested table. These pieces of furniture are so simple, yet utterly attractive features of the home, and are a wonderful way to decorate a corner of your living room.
More Sheesham Wood Tables
The final part of the site is dedicated to sheesham wood tables that do not quite fit into the other three sections. For example, we show various console tables here and a fabulous sheesham wood trunk table too.
What is sheesham wood?
Sheesham wood comes from a tree native to India. It is sometimes referred to as Indian Rosewood or written as Shisham wood. Its hard and durable properties make it an excellent wood for making items of furniture. The colours can vary as wood from the inner part of the tree is darker than the wood from the outer ring, which can be notably lighter in colour. The darker portion is usually the harder section of the two.
Where did we find these tables?
We have partnered with several websites which we believe stock the best sheesham wood table furniture there is available to buy. One such website is called Myakka, which we believe offers some of the best value, excellent quality sheesham wood furniture at very affordable prices. We are very happy to promote their sheesham tables, not just because of their fantastic designs, but also because of the great reviews the site receives for these products and their excellent customer service. The site also supports fair trade through a majority of their sheesham furniture offerings which are certified as such by the British Association for Fair Trade Shops.
If you are interested check out
our blog which very occasionally talks about what's happening with the site and sheesham wood table furniture in general.
If you have any comments about this site, please do send us a quick message.

Dear Forum,
I also wanted to ask if it is possible to produce an OpenFoam mesh given a text file with node locations and their connectivity.
As far as the previous message, has anybody worked on such problem? Could you suggest any easy way to create a patch for the inside cavity (a sphere in my case)?
Thank you for you help,
If your points are the points
If your points are the points of a block structured mesh have a look at the plot3DToFoam sources ($FOAM_UTILITIES/mesh/conversion). The plot3D format is (usually) a single block structured mesh and gives only the coordinates in some i,j,k format.

|Nucleophilic substitution and cyclisation reactions of some polyfluoro-heteroaromatic and polyfluoroaromatic compounds
|Drury, Christopher John
|Awarding Body:
|Durham University
|Current Institution:
|Durham University
|Date of Award:
|Availability of Full Text:
This thesis describes the reactions of some highly fluorinated aromatic and heteroaromatic compounds, in particular derivatives of naphthalene, quinoline and isoquinoline. Chapter 1 provides a general introduction to the preparation, reactions and applications of fluorine containing organic materials. Chapter 2 describes the reactions of some quinoline- and isoquinoline- thiolates with dimethyl acetylenedicarboxylate in an attempt to form six membered heterocycles. Chapter 3 describes nucleophilic substitution reactions of heptafluoro- quinoline and -isoquinoline with sulphur and oxygen nucleophiles. The sulphur nucleophiles are found to attack the 6- site in the isoquinoline and the 4- site in the quinoline. The oxygen nucleophiles attack the 1- site in the isoquinoline and 2- and 4- sites in the quinoline. Chapter 4 describes competition experiments of heptafluoro-quinoline and -isoquinoline with nucleophiles. Relative rates of attack at the 1- position and 6- position in the isoquinoline are determined for a variety of nucleophiles. The relative rates of two nucleophiles are determined for 4- attack in the quinoline. The relative reactivities of the two heterocycles are determined for two different nucleophiles. Chapter 5 describes the pyrolysis of heptafluoro-2-naphtiiyl propynoate which yield two difluoro-butenone derivatives. These decarbonylate under further pyrolysis to yield a 1,1-difluorocyclopropene. All the products were identified by X-ray crystallography. Chapter 6 gives experimental details for Chapter 2 to Chapter 5.
