Can fine chocolate have a £4 price tag?

Can fine chocolate have a £4 price tag?

In a 2017 article, Sharon Terenzi, The Chocolate Journalist asked if price was the best indicator for quality chocolate and made a good argument for it being the most reliable one.[1] I agree, that if you are looking at bars in the £6 plus range then it is more likely to deliver on taste and also on the other criteria I have learnt to judge my chocolate on: transparency and craftmanship.

But what about the middle ground – the £4 – £5 range? Early on in my chocolate journey, I came across a bar made by Original Beans. Craft chocolate at £3.95? After everything I had learnt about fine chocolate, I was sceptical. Why was Cocoa Runners selling chocolate for less than £4?[2] Menakao bars from Madagascar too, at just £3.95.[3]  I have since learnt that they are indeed fine bars, but to help you understand what you can buy at this price point, I have taken two £4 bars to see how they compare, firstly in terms of transparency, craftsmanship and then in terms of taste.

As a comparison to the Original Beans bars, I have chosen a brand I came across more recently, Love Cocoa, marketed by James Cadbury the great-great-grandson of Cadbury’s founder, John Cadbury.

We want to know as much as we can about the beans, where they are grown and who grows them.

At £4, the Love Cocoa bars are beautifully packaged in plastic-free packaging, demonstrating the brand’s sound environmental principles. They also champion a one bar = one tree scheme, working with cocoa farmers in northern Cameroon to plant 500,000 trees in partnership with Trees for the Future.

This is all great, but as fine chocolate lovers we also want transparency. We want to know as much as we can about the beans, where they are grown and who grows them. We want to know about the supply chain and how much the farmers get paid.

The website tells us they are making chocolate in a way that is “loved by you, the planet and its people”.[4] Their packaging clearly states that their chocolate is ‘slave-free’ and they share in their ancestor’s ambition to make something “absolutely pure, therefore the best”. They make artisan chocolate bars using the finest South American cacao[5], in this case simply single-origin Colombian and Peruvian chocolate (we are told no more).

The Original Beans bars start at £3.95 with their 42% Esmeraldas milk bar and 70% Virunga bar. We don’t need to look very far to find out about their cacao: the rare Arriba beans from the Esmeraldas Coast, Ecuador’s last Pacific cloud forest; and the Amelonado beans grown in the Democratic Republic of Congo’s Virunga Park. We can meet the team on the website, and find out how they are involved directly with the growers, working with their communities to create sustainable incomes and preserve the biodiversity of the places where they live and grow cacao.[6] The prices paid in relation to the market and ‘fairtrade’ prices are clearly displayed[7] and their ‘one bar: one tree’ system means they pay farmers an additional amount to plant cacao or neighbouring shade trees. [8]

Chocolate makers come in different sizes but they will control, influence or understand every part of the process, to deliver the required flavour.

As soon as the pod is cut from the tree, the skill of the farmers, fermenters and makers all influence the taste experience of the bar. Chocolate makers come in different sizes but they will control, influence or understand every part of the process, to deliver the required flavour. The alternative method of making chocolate is taking pre-made chocolate, called couverture and melting it down to mould into bars or filled chocolate. The work of a chocolatier rather than a chocolate maker.

Love Cocoa’s bars are handmade with love in Great Britain and are manufactured in a family-run factory. They claim nothing more and tell us nothing more. The ingredients vanilla extract or natural vanilla and soya lecithin might make some chocolate aficionados frown but are acceptable, and there is no palm oil or any other such nasties.  The ingredients state either Colombian milk chocolate or Peruvian dark chocolate, indicating that they are made from pre-made chocolate. We may see images of owner James Cadbury with a chocolate-covered whisk, but there is no reference to how the chocolate is made.

Original Beans is a private-label chocolate maker. Their ingredients are minimal with no use of lecithin or vanilla, just a touch of fleur de sel in the milk bar. They select the beans and growers themselves and then the bars are made from the bean by the makers at Max Felchin, one of Switzerland’s oldest manufacturers, who express the natural flavours of the beans.

Now to the taste test; we are looking for a taste experience we judge as being good. This is of course highly subjective depending on your taste preferences and experience.

First the milks:

Love Cocoa 41% Colombian

The aroma is a combination of vanilla and nut skins; the taste experience is a little better: a cool mouthfeel from a good dose of added cocoa butter. The vanilla and sweetness are too overpowering for me, but there are hints of caramel in there too. I’m not reaching for the next piece although I should add that my husband loved it!

Original Beans 42% Esmeraldas

Gentle caramel aromas, silky smooth melt delivering rounded notes of caramel and hazelnut with sweet peaks, just a hint of salt and a comforting chocolate aftertaste. Still a little sweet and not complex or demanding, but a deliciously sensory experience.

Now the dark bars:

Love Cocoa 70% Peruvian

Chocolate and vanilla appear again in the aroma, but more promising this time. The melt a little reluctant, the base chocolate notes have flashes of fruit; there’s a slight dryness in the aftertaste. It had interest and there was a flavour journey. I would try it again just to see if it got any better.

Original Bean 70% Virunga

Cocoa and tobacco in the aroma, creamy mouthfeel, chocolate brownie, more chocolate brownie, then a touch of astringency and acidity that calm into coffee and fruit – plums maybe – and a mellow, earthy finish. Quite straightforward, but an altogether more natural taste experience.

The Love Cocoa dark bar fared better than the milk. I was pleasantly surprised by the Peruvian, but it just didn’t have quite the same overall effect. My son however, who has quite a good palate, preferred it.

If taste is as critical as we say, then even though my palate prefers the flavour of the Original Beans bars there will be others who will judge the Love Cocoa bars more kindly. The biggest difference between the two comes down to the ethics of fine chocolate.

See Also

If you wish to spend £4 on a bar that has a decent taste and a proportion of the cost goes into environmental sustainability and philanthropy then explore the range of Love Cocoa bars. If, however, you wish to spend £4 on a bar with an interesting sensory experience, with a proportion of the cost contributing to the sustained livelihoods of the people who grow the cacao and the protection of rare varieties and eco-systems, then explore the Original Beans range.

I would choose Original Beans every time; once I learnt more about the founder Philip Kauffman’s aims for cocoa growers and their forests, I was no longer sceptical about the price, but frankly in awe that he could achieve so much at such a low price point.

James Cadbury is heading in the right direction, but how lovely would it be if at some point, he too discovered the promise of the cocoa bean and used his marketing skills to promote a chocolate business that really does make something “pure and absolutely the best”.

So, you absolutely can buy a fine chocolate bar for £4, but only if you look past the packaging and labels, to find out exactly what you are buying.

  • Fine chocolate made ethically and a low price point is a delicate balancing act. As you say, companies like Love Cocoa approach the ethical conundrum in a different way with their One Tree = One Bar promise. A lot of other smaller chocolate makers have similar strategies of focusing one making one or two aspects of the process as sustainable as possible or making sure the farmers get paid a fair price.

    In all honesty there is still a long way to go but it is good that more companies are trying to make a difference and that consumers are seeing that cheap chocolate comes at a cost.

Wind Power Investments in Germany Proving Riskier than Thought

For years Germany's wind output has been delivering uninspiring growth, while the excitement around the generation source has appeared little diminished.
Spiegel provides an article that fits with the tepid generation performance; financially poor results following rich promises.

Wind Power Investments in Germany Proving Riskier than Thought - SPIEGEL ONLINE:
Investments in renewable energy were supposed to be a sure thing, with wind park operators promising annual returns of up to 20 percent. More often than not, however, such pledges have been illusory -- and many investors have lost their principal to boot.
...mounting claims led Prokon to declare bankruptcy -- 75,000 stakeholders could be left out in the cold.
Data from AGEB shows biomass outgrowing wind
Thus far, it is the highest profile failure of a business model that both politicians and investors praised for being doubly beneficial. Not only would investors boost their own accounts, but they would also help the environment at the same time. And because the state guaranteed high feed-in rates for 20 years, the promises made by financial advisors -- secure returns with a good conscience -- seemed plausible.
Indications are mounting, however, that green capitalism will not be able to meet all expectations. In courts around the country, complaints are mounting from wind park investors who haven't received a dividend disbursement in years or whose parks went belly up. Consumer protection activists are complaining that many projects are poorly structured and lack transparency.
...newly released numbers, collected and analyzed over a several-year period, show what disappointed investors have long surmised: Around half of these commercial wind park enterprises are doing so poorly that investors can count themselves lucky if they even get their initial investment back after the 20 year duration.

...the only solid calculations were the fees and commissions scooped up by participating companies. In many ventures financed via closed-end funds, such expenditures amounted to 15 percent or even 20 percent of the invested principal. Because of the complexity of the financing model, up to a half-dozen firms are involved to take care of such tasks as "project management," "equity raising" or, simply, "marketing."

...[Breeze Two Energy] was able to avoid bankruptcy only because Germany's laws had changed in 2008. Since then, a "positive continuation prognosis" is enough to stay in business.
In the renewables industry, such a prognosis is easy to make: You just have to claim that the wind will blow stronger during the next year.
The entire article can be read at SPIEGEL ONLINE

I wonder if Export Development Canada's new Green Bonds carry the "00" designation.

What Happens During a Home Air Conditioning Inspection?

When thinking about air conditioning inspection and tune-up, homeowners are quick to worry about the amount of dollars to be spent. Whether your AC unit needs repair or begging to be replaced, regular maintenance can help you save on costs and stress in the long run. This will prevent unexpected breakdowns and make sure your system runs at peak efficiency. At Cold Front Air Conditioning, we take the health of your air conditioning systems serious business. Our In this blog, we’re sharing with you what you can expect from us when you schedule for an inspection and tune-up.

What are the perks?

Your air conditioner is made up of several moving parts, which get subjected to a great deal of stress during peak season, like extremely hot summers. Getting your system examined and fixed at least every year is the best way to keep it running in tip-top shape throughout the year. Doing so will help you avoid costly repairs, increase the lifespan of your system and maintain energy efficiency.

What should I expect?

Are you wondering what happens when an expert inspects and conducts tune-ups on your AC? Here are a few things our technicians do while giving your AC a quick check-up.

1. Check filter system Dirty filters hugely affect your air conditioner’s performance. They are your first line of defence and therefore need to be cleaned thoroughly so that occupants in your home will feel the cooling comfort.

2. Test thermostat The thermostat is your system’s control board. If it’s not working properly, our technician will be able to check and see what the issue is and conduct necessary repairs.

3.Compressors Your outdoor unit is also exposed to harsh and less ideal conditions. Our technicians will inspect the unit and remove any form of dirt and debris that are clogging the area. The fan blades and panels will also be inspected to prevent any major issues in the future.

4. Ductwork Our experts will run necessary checks on your ductwork for issues like: Indentations in the metal parts Leakages Loose areas Duct tape pealing Areas of collapsed flex ducts

5.Registers and Air Grills Technicians will check air registers and grills to see if there are any blockages preventing air flow. During inspection, our professionals will open and close the registers to make sure they are working well. They will also assess your home’s layout and check for any furniture that may be blocking the vents.

 6. Cleaning Our AC professionals will also clean the evaporator coils (if accessible), condenser coils and the system’s interior to make sure there’s proper drainage.

Schedule and Relax

Once your inspection is complete, we will schedule your next appointment and you can sit back and relax knowing that your AC is taken care of. We will also remind you of your next service so you won’t miss it.

Maintenance Plans

For as little as $99, you can avail of our split system maintenance package. Maintenance of ducted systems starts at $120. Get in touch with us to know more about our maintenance plans.

Parenting Orders made either by agreement/consent or made by the Court must be complied with by both parties until the child turns 18.

Unfortunately, we have seen many circumstances where one parent chooses not to comply with the Orders. The impact of the breach or ‘contravention’ of the Orders will depend on the severity of the alleged breach of the specific Order(s).

Continuous Breach of the Orders

If there has been a continuous breach of the Orders, then it may be advisable that the Orders be revised as a whole to ensure that the Orders are still relevant to the parties circumstances.

If you and the other parent cannot reach agreement on how to deal with the breach of the Orders, such as providing for ‘make-up’ time if the child has spent less time with one parent because of the breach, then you may need to consider attending upon family dispute resolution (such as mediation) to address the issues in dispute.

If there has been a continuous breach of the Orders, and it is clear that the other parent may not comply with the Orders again in the future, it is important that you consider attending upon family dispute resolution as soon as possible. We address why attending family dispute resolution is important in parenting cases in this article here

Family Dispute Resolution

The family dispute resolution process is aimed to provide the parties with the opportunity to discuss and negotiate the parenting arrangements. if the issues remain unresolved post mediation, then applying to Court is the last option to take to enforce the Orders.

The process will be through an Application relating to the Contravention, alongside supporting Court documents, including an Affidavit outlining the alleged breach and the circumstances surrounding the breach.

It is important to seek legal advice before filing an Application, as your Court documents must provide supporting evidence regarding the alleged breach.

Depending on the seriousness of the breach, the Court may make Orders if it is found that the other parent has ‘contravened’ the Orders made by the Court, such as the following:

  1. That the parent attend a Parenting Orders Program or post separation course; or
  2. That there be ‘make up’ time between the child and the Applicant, for time that was missed due to the non-compliant parent’s actions; or
  3. That there be a variation to the existing Parenting Order(s); or
  4. That there be a punishment by way of a fine or imprisonment.

If you are concerned with the practicality of the Parenting Orders currently in place, we encourage you to seek legal advice from one of our family lawyers regarding the options available to you, so that you can avoid being a Respondent to a Contravention Application.

If you are in a position where there are Parenting Orders in place and the other parent is not complying with the Orders, we also encourage you to seek advice on the next steps you may wish to take.

I don't mean this irreverently, but I really think God is laughing at me. In January 2015, I wrote down a prayer request as I continued my art journey.

Louisville head coach Rick Pitino responds to Gordon Gee’s comments

On Thursday afternoon Ohio State President Gordon Gee once again found himself in the middle of controversy, as comments made at a December meeting of the school’s Athletic Council came to light.

President Gee, who has made statements in the past that could best be described as “inflammatory,” had some choice words in regards to Notre Dame (and Catholics), the SEC and the University of Louisville.

And thanks to Sports Illustrated, you can listen to his remarks if you so choose.

Louisville head coach Rick Pitino made an appearance on WHAS Radio in Louisville Thursday, discussing the remarks with Terry Meiners, and it’s safe to say that Pitino was none too thrilled with the comments.

Coach Pitino even stated that until Gee picks up the phone and apologizes to Louisville President Dr. James R. Ramsey, he doesn’t accept the apology issued by President Gee on Thursday.

You can listen to the entire interview below.

Vegas sportsbook installs Kentucky as favorite to win national title

Even if it’s “for entertainment purposes only” one of the more entertaining aspects of the preseason is taking a look at how the folks in Las Vegas see things shaking out. The Bovada sportsbook released its odds, and they’ve got Kentucky as the early favorite to cut down the nets in Texas next spring.

John Calipari’s squad enters the season a 7-to-2 favorite to win it all, with Kansas (6-to-1) and reigning national champion Louisville (15-to-2) next in line. Closing out the top five are Duke and Michigan State, with both teams receiving 9-to-1 odds. Other interesting odds include North Carolina and Ohio State receiving 20-to-1 odds (could be high for the Tar Heels and low for the Buckeyes), Baylor at 75-to-1 and Butler at 100-to-1.

Bovada also has conference odds, with Louisville (2-to-3 to win the American) and Kentucky (2-to-3 to win the SEC) being the biggest favorites to win their respective conferences. The only other team that would require a significant bet in order to actually win money: Kansas, which is a 5-to-6 favorite to win the Big 12.

Michael Porter Jr. on returning this season: ‘There is a good chance’

Michael Porter Jr., Missouri Athletics
1 Comment

The buzz about Michael Porter Jr. returning to play this season for Missouri hit a crescendo on Friday afternoon because Porter himself stepped in front of a microphone and told reporters as much.

“To me and how I feel right now, there is a good chance,” Porter said. “I think the doctors are going to be amazed at my progress.”

Porter has been cleared to return to practice after back surgery in November. He has not, however, been cleared for contact, which means he cannot yet play in games.

“My rehab therapist thinks I’m good to go with practice except for the contact part,” Porter said, adding that he will be seeing the doctor next week. “I’m hoping that the doctor clears me for everything, contact included. That’s what I would love to hear. But it’s not up to me. It’s up to the doctors.”

He also said that he has “zero concerns” about reinjuring his back, while also adding that he’s “not worried about the risk” of reinjuring himself. “I’m feeling better now than I’ve ever felt.”

Frankly, I think it would be a silly idea to rush to return to play on a surgically-repaired back while playing for free when it could end up costing him tens of millions of dollars. Porter could end up earning nine figures playing basketball. Rushing back to play in college seems silly.

But that doesn’t mean he doesn’t want to do it.

Think about it like this: Michael’s family is extremely close. There are eight brothers and sisters. His aunt coaches the Missouri women’s team, where his two older sisters have played. His dad used to be an assistant for the Missouri women’s team and is now an assistant for the Missouri men’s team. His younger brother Jontay enrolled early specifically for a chance to play with Michael for one year in college. I am sure he really, really wants the chance to get on the floor with little bro.

And that is before you consider this: Without Michael, Missouri looks like they will comfortably get into the NCAA tournament. Keep in mind, there were many high school talent scouts that believed that Michael was a better prospect and player than Marvin Bagley III and Deandre Ayton coming out of high school. He was so good that no one realized his AAU teammate Trae Young was as good as he has proven to be.

If Michael should find a way to get healthy, in shape and shake off the rust of having been out for so long, it’s not crazy to think that Missouri would end up being one of the 10 or 15 best teams in America. They could make a Final Four in a season that is as wide open as this season is.

“If it were up to me I would love to get a couple games under my belt before hopping in the tournament to play,” he said. “That’s how I would love to do it. I’m working hard every day. I’m feeling better every day. I’m just hoping that the doctor feels the same way.”

“I’m having a great time watching the guys. People lose focus that our team is doing really good. we’re having a great year. We’ve already won 16 games, we won eight last season. At the same time, I would love to get back and play with them.”

Gen Z Career Outlook After COVID-19

Written by: The College Finance Team
Updated: 6/22/20

COVID-19 has affected almost every facet of our daily lives, from the way we work to how we think about the future going forward. And when we consider who might be most vulnerable to the effects of COVID-19, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is clear on the demographics who are at higher risk than others when it comes to the health-related consequences of coronavirus.

But while young Americans and millennials still have to worry about the physical impact of the coronavirus, an even younger generation may be dealing with the lasting impact of this health crisis far longer than the rest of the country. According to some experts, Generation Z (those born after 1996) may be the hardest hit by the economic brunt of COVID-19

With so many of Generation Z either still in school or coming out into the workforce for the first time in the midst of what has now been classified as a recession, we surveyed over 1,000 to explore how COVID-19 has affected their career and job outlook. Read on as we explore how many Americans believe their careers are forever changed by COVID-19, how many are thinking about switching industries, and where Generation Z fits into the workforce equation, compared to older generations.

What Comes Next?

In a world where Amazon’s Jeff Bezos has earned over $24 billion as a result of the global health pandemic, not every industry or employee in the U.S. is managing the economic burden of COVID-19 the same way. Compared to 13% of people believing their job or planned career path was more stable since the COVID-19 pandemic began and another 42% who felt COVID-19 hadn’t impacted their professional outlook at all, a majority of Americans weren’t as lucky. In fact, 46% of people said their jobs or career paths were less stable now than they’d previously expected.

While roughly half (49%) weren’t expecting to change their jobs or careers as a result of COVID-19, many others were less confident. Along with 21% who identified being unsure, 31% of Americans surveyed expressed positive sentiment toward looking for new jobs or career paths. Roughly 1 in 5 employed people said they would also consider going back to school to change their professional trajectories despite the potential costs. Employed people with student loan debt (27%) were more likely to express an interest in going back to school than those without student loan debt (14%). Those open to the possibility of going back to school were willing to take on more than $15,000 in additional student loan debt for extended education.

Concerned About the Future

The notion of a “new normal” has been a popular topic, both at the height of COVID-19 and as cities and states enter various phases of reopening. Still, analysts maintain that some industries and institutions (including education) will be forever changed by the impact of the health pandemic.

People most commonly considering a change in their professional landscape were working in education (62%), technology (57%), and construction or manufacturing (56%) during the pandemic. While 78% of people working in hospitality and hotel services considered their industries unstable as a result of COVID-19, just 46% of Americans employed in hospitality were considering a career change. Similarly, 60% of retail employees considered their industry impacted by the virus, but only 1 in 4 were thinking about transitioning to something else.

Ultimately, of those considering a career change, 40% were interested in moving into essential worker jobs, including 47% of millennials. In comparison, Generation Z was the least likely to express interest in essential career roles (27%). Technology (16%), health care (10%), and finance and insurance (8%) were the most popular potential industries people were thinking about switching into.

Looking Ahead

As a result of COVID-19, 65% of Gen Z Americans are contemplating going back to school or staying in school longer due to the economic impact of the virus. Among those currently employed, the most common industries included retail (16%), as well as hotel, food services, and hospitality (14%). Overwhelmingly, 66% of Gen Zers felt their planned career paths were less stable than previously expected, perhaps based on their early job experience after the COVID-19 outbreak.

Since the pandemic started, 34% of Gen Zers have experienced job interviews being canceled, a reduction in their hours at work (30%), reduced pay (19%), or being furloughed (12%). Just 29% of employed Generation Z Americans said there was no impact on their jobs as a result of COVID-19. For these young employees, the average salary decrease before and during COVID-19 was $6,000.

Job Outlook and a Second Wave of COVID-19

In order to gauge any anxiety regarding the near future, we asked respondents if they considered the possibility of a second wave of COVID-19 and another shut down of offices and public buildings. Here are some of our key findings:

  • Of those employees whose job stability was not affected by COVID-19, 26% said they would seriously consider changing their job or career should a second wave of infections occur.
  • Around 60% of employed Americans fear that a second wave of COVID-19 would negatively impact their employment, with around 23% fearing layoffs. Around 71% of Gen Zers entering the job market fear job instability due to a second wave of COVID-19.
  • Employees with on-site hospitality, food, and beverage roles feared a second wave of COVID-19 layoffs and furloughs most (77%), followed by those working in on-site retail roles (66%).

And while many parts of the country are actively entering phases of reopening and returning to “business as usual,” the reality of a second wave of COVID-19 presents a lingering concern for many Americans.

Sixty percent of employed workers worry a second wave would negatively impact their jobs, including 23% worried about being laid off. A vast majority of Generation Z Americans (71%) entering the job market for the first time fear job instability related to a second wave of the virus. More than 1 in 4 Americans whose job stability was not affected by COVID-19 would strongly consider changing careers if a second wave of the virus occurred.

Adapting to the Changing Economy

For many Americans, getting back to “normal” following the COVID-19 pandemic may be far easier said than done. Many indicated feeling differently about their career path as a result of the virus, forcing some to consider making a permanent shift in their professional life in an effort to find more stable industries. As we found, this also included many Americans (including those in Generation Z) considering going back to school or staying in school longer while awaiting job markets to improve.

Pandemic Personal Development

Written by: The College Finance Team
Updated: 9/15/20

No matter what you thought you would accomplish this year – get married, get in shape, get promoted, go on a great vacation – the odds are pretty high that your plans have been sidetracked.

Regardless of what phase your city or state is in concerning reopening, social distancing and quarantine measures have made returning to life before COVID-19 nearly impossible. And while you may be contemplating what this new normal means for the weeks or months ahead, there’s no reason why you can’t make the most out of lockdown right now. In reality, whatever goals you’d set for the year may still be within reach, even if you have to rethink how to get there.

So what does personal development in the middle of a pandemic look like, and how can you still find a way to get something worthwhile out of 2020? To find out, we served over 1,000 people who self-isolated or self-quarantined at some point in recent months and over 200 hiring managers to get a pulse on how to make the most of downtime. Read on as we break down how many people are picking up new skills, where they’re getting their information, and how good those skills might look in their next job interview.

It goes without saying that almost everything about this year probably hasn’t gone the way you expected. If it isn’t one thing, it’s another, and 2020 has been such a rollercoaster of emotions and headlines, it’s entirely possible you may not have been able to keep up with them all

If you’re feeling like you somehow don’t have the energy to keep up with life as we know and to take on new projects or goals, consider this: 90% of hiring managers surveyed identified being more likely to hire someone who worked on their professional development during COVID-19 than someone who didn’t.

Getting the Most Out of Lockdown

Once you’ve exhausted your Netflix to-watch list and contemplated just how serious you are about making sourdough starter, you may realize you have more downtime on your hands than you originally expected. Getting the most out of quarantine doesn’t have to be a Rubik’s cube of complexity as long as you’re willing to take a little initiative and get things kicked off without a completely solid plan in place.

Among the more than 1,000 people surveyed, 83% indicated learning something new while staying at home during COVID-19, and another 78% expanded their existing skills or knowledge during the pandemic. While 84% of people working toward a professional accolade paid for their instruction and 78% paid for the supplies they needed, a majority of people learning new skills or knowledge (either personal or professional) paid nothing to do so.

Top 10 Most Popular Certifications Pursued During COVID-19

  • Information Technology and Computer Engineering
  • Finance and Accounting
  • Environmental Health and Safety
  • Electrical Engineering
  • Construction
  • Social Work and Psychology
  • Human Resources
  • Event Planning
  • Marketing
  • Environmental Engineering

Men were 11 percentage points more likely than women to learn about a new topic during lockdown and 4 percentage points more likely to expand on their existing topical knowledge, while women were more likely to learn a new hobby to broaden their understanding of an existing hobby. Overwhelmingly, 96% of people planned to continue pursuing their new skills or knowledge even after lockdown ended, and 84% expected to take their new knowledge even further than they’d initially anticipated.

Pushing Themselves Further

With so much uncertainty and massive job loss across the country, it can be difficult to find the motivation to do much more than get by. For the majority of people looking to learn something new, the reasons were often more personal than they were professional.

For 60% of people, picking up a new skill set or hobby during the pandemic was a self-development pursuit, while another 43% were hoping to achieve a personal goal, and 39% were trying to reduce their stress levels. Just 29% of people expanding their educational knowledge of a topic did so to help advance their career, and only 14% were hoping to get a promotion out of it. In fact, half of people out of work as a result of the pandemic were learning something new that they previously didn’t have the time to pursue. One in four people out of work were learning something new with the hopes of starting a new career.

Sixty-five percent of people focused on learning something new turned to YouTube for an average of nearly nine hours a week. YouTube wasn’t just the most popular platform as an educational outlet, it was considered one of the most effective (88% overall), second only to Massive Open Online Courses (89%). Online articles and books were also popular outlets for picking up new knowledge, though people spent the most time engaged with open online courses and online college programs.

People who were out of work due to COVID-19 spent the most time learning (over 12 hours), but people still employed found nearly 9 hours on average to learn each week. People looking to start a new career were equally motivated to learn more (12 hours a week, on average), followed by those attempting to advance their careers (11 hours) or achieve a new personal goal (10 hours).

Even though personal pursuits were often more common motivations than professional ones, people looking to restart or reenvision their careers post-pandemic were often spending more time engaged in learning than those advancing their personal goals or picking up hobbies.

In either scenario, professional development during COVID-19 impressed 9 out of 10 hiring managers enough that they would be more likely to promote someone who engaged in these learning opportunities during lockdown.

Connections Between Personal and Professional Goals

As it turns out, there may be a clear intersection between the knowledge people are pursuing for their own personal gain and the knowledge they’re seeking out for professional advancement.

Forty-one percent of people indicated learning self-motivation as a soft skill during the pandemic, which 45% of hiring managers acknowledged was more important than ever before, and 65% of hiring managers called an essential employee trait. Another 32% of people believed they were learning how to be more flexible as a result of COVID-19, with 61% of hiring managers indicating this was the most critical post-pandemic soft skill and nearly the most essential trait (71%) an employee could bring to the table. More than anything else, communication (75%) and time management (72%) were the most commonly identified essential traits for employees post-pandemic.

8 Most Important Post-Pandemic Soft Skills for Your Career, According to Hiring Managers

  • Time management
  • Responsibility
  • Problem-solving
  • Communication
  • Adaptability
  • Flexibility
  • Self-motivation
  • Stress management

Looking Ahead

Some industries have been impacted more than others as a result of COVID-19, but a majority of people looking to get ahead in their professional lives by deepening their knowledge on certain subjects aren’t looking for major career shifts.

Among people looking for education opportunities specifically with their careers in mind, 50% were looking for advancement opportunities in their current fields, and another 45% were simply looking to be more satisfied with their existing career. People currently earning the highest average annual salaries ($50,000 or more) were the most motivated to learn new skills or information for the opportunity to get a promotion, advance further, or get a raise.

Twenty-nine percent of people still employed also admitted to using their regularly scheduled work hours as an opportunity to educate themselves further. However, we also learned that evenings and after work were the most popular times to focus on learning, with over half of respondents preferring those times. Additionally, 1 in 4 respondents was learning late into the night.

Compared to people who were looking to advance their existing career (44%), pick up new responsibilities (41%), or get a raise (33%), just 29% of people wanted to change their career or industry completely. Among those currently unemployed as a result of the pandemic, 22% expected the knowledge acquired during lockdown to help land them a job in the future.

Broadening Your Horizons

Whether you’re picking up a new hobby from YouTube tutorials or simply looking to expand how well you understand an existing topic or subject, the time you spend learning something new during lockdown can help do more than pass the time or reduce stress. Many people acknowledged picking up soft skills like time management, communication, and self-motivation during the pandemic. Hiring managers now see these skills as being more important than ever and essential for employees looking to succeed.

Video tutorials and online articles can be great, but if you’re looking to make a more impactful commitment to switching careers or major advancement in the workplace, you might be thinking about taking a more permanent step.

At, we’ll be by your side every step of the way. From your options for paying for education now, refinancing your existing college loans, or consolidating your college expenses for the future, we’ve got you covered. With the right information from the beginning, we know you can minimize borrowing costs and help set yourself up for success in the future. Visit us online at to learn more.

Methodology and Limitations

We surveyed 1,184 people using the Amazon MTurk platform. We surveyed 1,016 people who have self-isolated or quarantined at least slightly amidst the COVID-19 pandemic, and 201 full-time employees with supervising and/or hiring authority. 555 respondents were male, 460 respondents were female, and 1 respondents did not identify as male or female. Respondents ranged in age from 18 to 76 with an average age of approximately 39.

To help ensure that respondents took our study seriously, all respondents were required to identify and correctly answer an attention-check question. In some cases, questions and responses were rephrased for clarity or brevity.

In certain cases, outliers have been excluded. These data rely on self-reporting, and statistical testing was not performed on these findings. Potential issues with self-reported data include, but are not limited to, exaggeration, selective memory, and attribution errors on the part of respondents.

Fair Use Statement

There’s no time like the present to ask “what’s next?” If your readers are trying to take advantage of their free time during lockdown, share the results of these findings with them for any noncommercial use with a link back to this page so they have access to our data and methodology.

 samsung-galaxy S5- 4

Unveiled at the ‘UNPACKED5’ event in Barcelona last week, Samsung Galaxy S5 is the brand new addition to the successful series of smart phones to the Korean brands basket. Much hyped and speculated addition to the ‘high end and even smarter phones’ of today’s times, has been launched and is expected to continue the legacy of its predecessors successfully.

Well, the reviews after the launch have not really been as pleasant as expected. That can be an obvious result of the higher expectations level that were set beforehand in anticipation or probably a genuine feedback of the industry’s ‘know it all’!  That being said, reviews often do not jibe will the actual customer demand so we should wait and see. However, let us all take a detour of the key features Galaxy S5 posses and how fairly does it rate on a comparison with its predecessor.

samsung-galaxy S5- 2

Samsung Galaxy S5 Price:

Well there are a lot of speculations regarding the money Samsung wants its buyers to shell out, to get their hands on their Galaxy S5. Going by the predictions it would cost us around INR 37272- 43,484 ($600-$700). The popular opinion in the market, is that you can also expect a slight cut in the prices coming October.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Design:

Now, this in particular has been much talked about and a rather anticipated feature. However, it is nothing more than a disappointment! “Modern and refreshing” as Samsung calls it, is more conspicuously plastic than its predecessor Galaxy S4. Thankfully, this time there is no fake metal finish on the back, but just t he silvery sides. The back has a texture of little dimple like design to give it some extra grip. Available in 4 colors- Gold, Blue, White and Black. Please take a free advice here and ‘Do Not’ buy the one in gold. It looks horrible!

The rugged design does come with some drawbacks though. The Galaxy S5 is 8.1mm thin as opposed to the Galaxy S4 which checks in with a 7.9mm thin frame. It also weighs 145 grams while the Galaxy S4 weighs right around 130 grams. In other words, the Galaxy S5 design is thicker and heavier than the Galaxy S4.

Both the Galaxy S5 and Galaxy S4 come with 2,800 mAh batteries and both devices feature a removable back. Yes, the Galaxy S5 and its rugged design feature a removable back that will allow users to tack on an extended battery for more juice.

Samsung Galaxy S5 -1

Samsung Galaxy S5 Screen :

The screen of the Galaxy S5 is not dramatically different to that of the Galaxy S4. It’s a shade bigger – a grand 0.1 inches – but the screen type and resolution are the same. It’s a 1080p Super AMOLED screen.
Samsung says it has dramatically increased how dim the screen can go too! It’s the first time we’ve seen a company boast about such a thing, but it will come in handy if you like to watch the latest episode of your favorite TVC, or check your emails. Along with this S5’s maximum brightness limit is a smidge higher than Galaxy S4.

Apart from being loaded with a few unique apps this one like every standard Galaxy S-series phone, the Galaxy S5 uses custom Samsung interface laid on top of Android. However, Samsung has given its interface a revamp “inspired by the prism effect of diamonds”. What this amounts to is a reworking of the phone’s icons, and a minor streamlining of the phone’s look.

Couple of the great apps it provides its users include: S Health 3.0- Your personal health tracker! , Run Keeper , Knox, Heart Rate Sensor etc. Well, surely this phone is a healthier option! This smart phone also offers a ‘Kids Mode’. So basically it’s a special area in the phone that is kids friendly and you can chose what goes into it.

  • Processor – As expected, the Galaxy S5 features a faster processor than the Galaxy S4 though it’s still not clear if the device utilizes a 64-bit processor or not. The Galaxy S5′s processor is a quad-core and it will be clock higher than the Galaxy S4 which means that it could offer improved performance in areas like gaming and multitasking.
  • Operating System: Galaxy S5 runs on new Android v4.4.2 KitKat OS, which is an upgrade from its predecessor, the Galaxy S4, which ran on Android Jelly Bean v4.2.2 OS.

Samsung Galaxy S5 Camera:

The Samsung Galaxy S5 offers several camera tech improvements over the Galaxy S4. It has a higher-resolution 16-megapixel sensor, some new modes and a reworked HDR mode.

Instead of a 13MP camera like the Galaxy S4, the Samsung Galaxy S5 comes with an upgraded 16MP camera that is capable of shooting ultra-high definition 4K video. The Samsung Galaxy S4′s camera can shoot high quality video footage but it simply cannot match the output of the Galaxy S5′s new camera.

However, the most technologically interesting improvement is one that is in danger of being overlooked –the autofocus. Most phones use a basic contrast detects focusing system. This uses high-contrast areas in an image to judge when a photo is in focus. It has a hybrid system that uses a mix of contrast detection and phase detection. The latter is what is used by SLRs.

Samsung-Galaxy S5 - 3

Star Features:

Apart from all the basic improvements, S5 does have a star features that will surly set it apart from a lot of its competitors in the market:

  • Water and Dust Resistance
  • HDR(Rich Tone)-For both photos and videos, turn on the HDR when there is a strong counter light or when the subject is shaded.
    Preview in real time natural light and color being reproduced vividly and clearly while you take your shot
  • Fast auto focus-Don’t hesitate to shoot and capture action as it’s happening! The faster Auto Focus helps you capture important moments of movement more quickly and in focus.
  • Selective Focus allows you to focus on what’s important by blurring the background and accentuating the main subject
    in defined detail
  • MIMO- Multiple Input Multiple Output
  • Heart Rate Sensor
  • S Health- Your personal fitness tracker

Despite the fact, that the phone has failed to please not only the critics but also technology junkies and Samsung’s ardent fans, it does has a couple of star features making a probable buy!

·         Water and Dust Resistant

Well, dropping your smart phone in the toilet is an easy way to ruin your day. Thankfully, the Samsung Galaxy S5 is designed with durable dust and water-resistant glass, eliminating problems such as this. Although, I am not sure of the maximum resistance limit, so I recommend so shouldn’t you.

·         Removable Battery

The Samsung Galaxy S5 features a removable battery, meaning you can pick up a spare for those emergency situations when you run out of juice. I’m a huge fan of removable batteries, and personally I think all smart phones should have them. Samsung really stepped up their game by implementing a removable battery in the Galaxy S5.

·         Improved Sensors

Sure, the Galaxy S4 has Motion Gesture and other sensors, but Samsung has improved and built on to this technology with the Galaxy S5. The new Galaxy S5 is able to monitor your heart rate (great for exercising or playing sports), and it can perform a variety of tasks using the built-in fingerprint scanner.

Most people assume the fingerprint scanner is only useful for unlocking the device, but users can actually program each of their fingers to perform a specific task, such as logging into social media accounts, opening applications, etc.

·         Same Pricing as the Galaxy S4

This new Galaxy is expected to be priced in the same range as its predecessor S4. If these rumors are correct, you can expect the Galaxy S5 to cost around INR 12,416 with a 2-year contract or INR 37272- 43,484 without a contract.

Samsung-Galaxy S5 -2

·         Small but Subtle Interface Improvements

There are dozens of small nuances with the Galaxy S5′s interface that really sets it apart from the S4. Certain improvements have been made to this one making it more user friendly. The TouchWiz interface has been revamped, along with a new and improved virtual keyboard, camera screen, and other software changes.

The first post from me in a while this, and a bit of a mixed bag. The first four are from the Tivoli carpark, post-this years grafitti/ skate jam. The second two are dropped in to break up the post, the first a sign  spotted at the council offices in Rathmines, and the second, a group of workers abseiling down the side of Liberty Hall. The second lot of graf pictures is from the back of the Bernard Shaw, easily the best spot in Dublin for ever changing talent. Inside and out, the walls are covered with pieces from Dublin’s best artists, including our good friend Maser; the “Swim” piece is his, and was a work in progress at the time the below was snapped.

I always re-iterate the fact that there’s nowhere in the world I’d rather be when the sun is shining than Dublin City. So heading down to Ormond Place to check out the grafitti wall there, and seeing the skyline as it is in the image below, I couldn’t help but take the camera out for a shot. skyline Ormond Place (behind Fibber’s Rock Bar) is apparently a designated grafitti spot set up by the Dublin City Council, and there are some fantastic pieces on it. I’ve covered three other such spots, I’ll link to them at the bottom of this set. Dublin is lucky to be home to some absolutely amazing artists, and say what you like about tagging, beautiful street art brightens up a city. 026

I opened with a moody sunshine snap, so I’ll close with a moody night-time one. O’Connell Street came to a stand-still, with the backdrop of a near full-moon peeking out from the clouds behind the Spire. 010

“The delights a stroll around Dublin can bring you. I’ve always carried my camera around with me, but have only recently started to take it out and not give a shite that I look like a tourist.”

Someone said of the last bunch of photo’s I stuck up that Dublin is starting to look like a proper shithole… Its not- its really not, its just that for whatever reason, I like taking pictures of graffiti, rundown buildings and, well, real Dublin. For any piece of eight or ten images, its possible to have taken fifty or sixty shots on my not very fancy camera. Subsequently, I have hundreds of shots of birds, trees, sunshine and flowers. But I still prefer the grittier side of things!

The Seahorses of Grattan Bridge. JayCarax has done some great work on the history of the Grattan statue on College Green. The  statue is, of course, surrounded by lamps bearing ornate seahorses. Grattan Bridge bears the same idols on its lamps.

I’ve recently moved gaff, so my cycle to work takes me down along the canal, from Rathmines to Inchicore. For three months, I’ve been cycling past this spot and never noticed this piece on the side of the bridge at Herberton Road until this week. The work of Solus, I think its a belter!

Its a scary thought,  but its almost two years since I went down to the Tivoli Theatre carpark to check out the art on display. I ventured down during the week to have another look and wasn’t disappointed. The results of the annual All City Easter Jam, and its coming up to that time of year again. Details of the event can be found here and the Facebook event is here.

Its been a while since I’ve done one of these posts. Normally I take a load of snaps in one afternoon and pick out the seven or eight that stand out the most. I haven’t done so in the last while but I have managed to cobble together a few pictures I’ve taken over the last couple of weeks for a post anyways.

Below is a picture I took whilst putting up flags pre-game a couple of weeks ago, I think against Sligo. Obviously I’ve photoshopped it ever-so-slightly, but I like the contrast between the pitch and the dark clouds on the horizon. Arty.

What is it with me and cameras? I just have no luck with them; this is my fourth camera to give up on me in around eight years. I still hold out hope, I will get my little G9 fixed, I’ve only started to get used to it and have only started taking pictures I’m proud of. This rant I hear you ask, what is it about? Well, its a precursor and an apology for the quality of the below pictures, but I couldn’t help but take them and share them.

Hungover cycles often provide great inspiration, and Sunday’s was no different, and rewarding also, having come across the below piece down the (Luas) tracks. Its probably been around a while, but this is the first time I’ve ventured down this far since before the Chrimbo.

Who listens? (1)

Who Listens? (2)

Back in the day, you were born with
original sin, now its original debt.
Every man, woman and child in this
country are footin’ the bill for a
load of empty buildings. If it was
France, there’d be bleedin’ murder.

Who Listens? (3)

Where’s my Nama? You know what I
mean? I worked on the sites round
here and when I got laid off I
still had to pay me mortgage every
month. But we’re bailing these boys
(out I?) don’t get it.

Who Listens? (4)

The middle to the end of the
sixties saw the dyin’ end of the
docks. It just went slowly down.
If any of the old Dockers came
back today and looked down from
Butt Bridge, they’d call you a liar,
they’d go “that’s not where I worked.”

Who Listens? (5)

There’s something Flann O’Brien-esque about the writing style, god knows what the man would have said if he saw the state of the country now. Either way, its a good summation of what has happened the old docklands; there is or, was a social history there that has been all but completely wiped out in order to pave way for the IFSC, the area that most said at the time  ” is a grand representation of the Celtic Tiger, sure isn’t it great the money we have now for all these shiny buildings.” Its a shocking pity that most of them are now empty.

….do it correctly.

Recently, we had this piece looking at a wonderful new piece of graffiti from Dublin based street artist ADW at Suir Road Bridge. The piece was removed after only a couple of hours.

Freda, a friend of ours whose photos frequently end up on the blog, popped up recently to photograph the damage. She’s been documenting Dublin street art for years now, building up impressive photo albums showing the development of the art form in the capital. I’m hoping in time she’ll join the WordPress world.

Anyway, when she got up there, this is what she found:

Half a heart.

What’s the point?

Excellent stuff this from Dublin street artist ADW, one of the many Dubliners out there keeping the streets looking pretty. Nice to find this in my inbox this morning from a friend saying “You’d like this”.

One of the beauties of working in the city and having long lunch breaks is getting to walk up and down unfamiliar streets to see what you come across. ADW’s stuff is among my favourites, though sometimes the likes of Mr. Monoploy being carried away by two brave Guardians of the Peace isn’t likely to remain in place for too long. You do well to carry a camera in this city.

From the beautiful ESPO pieces at the Tivoli to the recent They Are Us project, Irish Street Art over here is well worth a look. You never know what you’ll find on your lunch break.

Our friend Jim Scully spotted this and sent it on. Hxci reckons that it went up over the weekend as it certainly wasn’t there on Friday. (Edit – It seems it’s been there since at least Thursday)

It seems to be an anti – government street art piece that is making a crude reference to the recent Polish plane crash that killed 96 people including the president

Banksy it ain’t.

This looks interesting. From Thursday through to Sunday, there will be an exhibition of the stencil work of the artist ADW in town, at The Back Loft Gallery.

At first, I didn’t connect the name with anyone in particular, but after a brief look at the website I went “oh! Yer man!”. The broke leprauchan with his pockets stretched, the Gardaí arresting Monopoly Man, Brian Cowen with his “Laugh now, but one day I’ll be in charge” signboard, all great images.

And so it begins! My new show will be opening on the 15th of April at the very stylish Back Loft Gallery. There will be an opening reception on Thursday the 15th of April 6pm-8pm and all are welcome. Then daily viewings from Friday the 16th until Sunday the 18th, 1-7pm and Sunday until 5pm

Despite currently getting to terms with a serious mountain of essays, I hope I can swing into this on Sunday.

Sadly, in Dublin, this kind of stuff rarely lasts too long and the shite nobody wants or needs to know about Anto and his girlfriend stays up on the wall forever. No justice.

  1. Exactly the question I came to ask. I can understand the Margin issues. But for fully funded cash traders wishing to go long (knowing all the risks and being prepared to lose) - What earthly reason do you have for restricting purchases of shares right now? How is that going to "prioritise the service we give our existing clients" Its either 1) A conflict of interest, In which case I'll be looking for another platform, or 2) A liquidity problem, in which case I need to take my funds elsewhere. Which is it? 1 or 2 ?.
  2. Nevermind - Sussed it. IAG is exempt from Stamp Duty! - as it is a Spanish company. I now see that companies that have Stamp Duty charged, state so on the product details section. Companies without stamp duty just dont mention it.
  3. Hi, When is SDRT Charged? After much research, I made my first trade yesterday, (Am British, with a British Account, and bought IAG). I was sure when I opened the ticket, that SDRT was factored in to the price of the trade (as it seemed to be a few pence out from my spreadsheet calculation - I made a mental note to investigate that small differential later). Once the trade completed, it seems that I was only charged the book value of the trade plus £8 commission. In my trade history, it shows the consideration £xxxx.xx ; Commission £8 ; Charges £0.00 ; Costs/Proceeds as equal to consideration + commission. Everything I have found online suggests that SDRT is charged through the CREST system at the point of transaction. That I should have been charged SDRT there and then. No funds in my account appear to be 'reserved' for SDRT. I opened a web chat, and the chaps in India looked at my account. The end result of that was a statement that IG don't deal with SDRT, and that I would need to pay it independently. I am not confident that this advice was correct. Can someone please advise? Is the SDRT charged through IG / CREST? Do I have some sort of introductory offer? How long should I keep funds in the account to deal with SDRT? - Am I missing something fundamental here?
  4. I have some shares with Computershare, that I want to transfer to IG. The IG help states; Do you charge for transferring investments in or out of IG? No, you can transfer your investments without any charges from us. The stock transfer form is written in terms of transferring from other brokers to IG. Computershare however, appear to charge a fee for transferring shares, they have a transfer form,(Transferring CDIs from the Company Nominee to another CREST participant with no change of beneficial ownership) but it is written in terms of transferring from them to anther broker. So if I get IG to transfer my shares, will I be charged a fee from Computershare? - If so, do I have to pay them to release my shares?

If it doesn't work with All accounts or All securities, try choosing Custom and then selecting All.

  1. Hey! I posted in the make friends part of the forum and wanted to post here too so I can be more specific. I would love to meet and be a part of a family. I am not looking for a romantic type of relationship. A bit about me.. I did not really experience much of a quality family life growing up. I basically was on my own really early, so I never experienced what a mother/daughter or father/daughter relationship was like. I have no siblings irl and would love to experience that type of feeling here! As far as my personality goes..I think that I am really easy to get along with. I am a huge advocate for mental health. I love helping people and being there for them. Sharing tons of laughs and being together through hard times. I avoid drama, but I mean I will listen like a fly on the wall haha. I love window shopping. I like to explore new places and see what people create. I like getting to know people and I am generally just a happy person. I do not get offended easily. I am pretty playful most of the time, but I can be serious when needed of course. I crave knowledge. I love to learn new things. If you are looking for someone like me, please send me a message in world! ❤ skylarphillips
  2. Hey! I'm Skylar and I am new here in SL. Looking to meet some lovely people to develop friendships with! I love dancing, music, singing, painting, and shopping. In world I have not experienced much other than just messing around with my appearance, but I would like to explore more, meet people, and go window shopping. I would think I could be a great shopping companion. I love looking at things people have made, homes they have built, decorations and everything. I am really into fashion irl and it seems to be a huge thing in SL which is exciting! I get along with pretty much everyone, so you definitely do not have to have the same hobbies as me. I like to try new things, so I am willing to tag along if you have room! I think I really would like to try roleplaying. Maybe a family type situation because (tmi alert) I have not experienced much of a family life in my RL. 😃 I hope to hear from you soon! skylarphillips ❤
