Baking Ingredients & Essentials

149 products

Whether you love to bake as a part time hobby; you make all your own bread, pasta and cakes, or you have never tried baking before, we have a great range of baking ingredients which are perfect for popping in your cupboards.

Here are some of our favourite baking ingredients to get your mouth watering:

Fruit based baking ingredients

There are lots of different fruits that can be used in baking and these usually come in a dried form, such as sultanas and raisins.

On of the best things about having a stack of dried fruits available in your cupboard is that you can also grab a handful for a tasty snack, if you start to feel hungry while you are baking!

Banana chips

Banana chips are sweet-tasting banana slices which have been fried or dehydrated in order to make crunchy chips.

Banana chips are high in potassium and fibre, just like a fresh banana.

Potassium helps to support normal muscle function.

Banana chips can be used in flapjack and cookies, to add an extra bit of crunch to these sweet treats.

You can also pop a handful into your breakfast cereal to give you a great start to the day.

Or just grab a handful for a snack as a great alternative to potato-based crisps.

Holland & Barrett Chopped Dates come ready-chopped to save you some time in the kitchen. Just pop them into your mixture as they are!

Dates have a very sweet flavour and are high in natural sugars, which removes the need for you to add extra sweeteners into your recipe.

You can also pop dates into cereal, eat them as an on-the-go snack or add them to recipes for a traditional sticky toffee pudding, or use in protein balls.

If you often find yourself with sweet cravings during the day, pop a pack of dates in your bag to keep these at bay.

Desiccated coconut

Coconut can be loosely defined as a fruit, a nut or a seed. It is technically a drupe, which is a fruit which has a hard covering, surrounding a seed.

Desiccated coconut is a traditional baking ingredient which is used in lots of recipes including cakes, flapjack and cookies.

Holland & Barrett Dry Desiccated Coconut is made from pure coconut and is rich in essential nutrients.

The drying process used to make this ingredient preserves most of the coconut’s nutrients.

It contains no cholesterol or trans fats and is rich in fibre

Nut products which can be used in baking

Adding nuts to your recipes is a great way to add more flavour and texture to your baking.

Almonds are a great source of protein and fibre and can help to fill you up and keep you feeling fuller for longer.

They are also rich in potassium, vitamin E and calcium.

Flaked almonds are perfect for almond slices and blondies as well as adding to muesli for breakfast or as a topping for trifles to add a little bit of extra crunch.

Ground almonds are finely milled for mixing into tarts, cakes and puddings to add some extra sweetness and flavour.

Powdered peanut butter

Peanut butter is a well-known source of protein and fibre, popular amongst people who live an active lifestyle and who often work out.

PPB Powdered Peanut Butter Original keeps the great flavour of peanut butter but comes in a powdered form.

It has 70% less fat than its traditional spreadable counterpart and is certified gluten free.

Powdered peanut butter is great for adding to cookie mixture or for making delicious peanut butter cups.

As well as baking, powdered peanut butter can also be added to smoothies or mixed with water, to create a low fat peanut butter spread.

Powdered peanut butter is available in a vegan chocolate flavour and cinnamon flavour too, to add a little more sweetness to your baking.

Pistachios are rich in nutrients and antioxidants and, like other nuts, are a good source of protein and fibre.

Holland & Barrett Pistachio Kernels come ready shelled for home baking,

Pistachios make a great flavouring for a light sponge cake. They can also be eaten as a tasty snack or added to your breakfast cereal or dessert.

Filter by:
  • of 149 products

    Our great range of baking ingredients at Holland & Barrett come in a range of sizes with some products suitable for vegans and are gluten free. Our wide selections of baking ingredients include yeast flakes, flaked almonds and seedless raisins.

Essential Things You Need To Know To Start Your Music Career With Foreign Forest

- Advertisement -
- Advertisement -
- Advertisement -
- Advertisement -

Make sure you have a way to make a living

In popular culture, we romanticize the idea of leaving everything behind and head to the big city to pursue our passion. Unfortunately, more often than not, it’s more fantasy than reality.

It’s probably not smart to drop everything and try to make a living off music right off the bat. If you’re financially well off or have built up a strong following through another industry then maybe this doesn’t apply. But for the rest of you, your priority should be to do something that pays the bills to keep you afloat while you do music on the side.

Foreign Forest is a bedroom project started by singer and producer Frankie Denham. Since 2014, Forest has released 2 albums, the first of which being “Pretty Songs I Like to Cry to”. With over 17 songs, half of which being features from similar artists in the emo/hip-hop genre, Forest made sure people heard who he was, and soon they began to get an idea, as now the album boasts over 7M+ streams on Spotify alone. With high expectations from fans to release something comparable to his last project, Forest took another route while making his follow-up album “Halloween, but All Year” (also known as “HBAY”).

Taking the time to produce and engineer HBAY by himself, and only including 2 features rather than many, Forest was determined to shine unlike he had before. The 11-track project moves back-to-back between tracks that feel familiar and tracks that feel completely “foreign”, which Forest says was the goal of the album. Adding House percussion to beautiful melodies and exploring introspective lyrics, Forest has truly created an experience for not only the dedicated Alternative Rap fans but also for any fans of EDM or Indie Pop.

Some might like the idea of going all-in without a backup plan because they feel the pressure to survive will help motivate them to make it doing music full-time. Hey, it’s your life, but not what I would personally advocate.

Before the internet, if you wanted to pursue music, your best hope was to move to a big city and try to get the attention of A&Rs (artists and repertoire) in order to get signed by a label. Fortunately, those days are basically over as you no longer need labels. However, this also means that just about anyone can try to pursue music, creating a noisy and competitive environment.

Have goals and a plan

 You really need to understand what you want to do and have a good idea of how to get there. If you don’t, you need to research and ask people. Set goals and have a plan so you’re not wasting time.

Some people may want to just make music to get sync licensing deals for commercials or movies. Others want to be a performing artist who tours the world as an independent. Maybe you just want to produce tracks for other artists.

Not everyone will have the same goals or aspirations. It may take some time to realize what your long term goal is, and it may even change as you gain more experience. But once you have your end goal, you gotta reverse engineer it.

Keep making music and improving your craft

 It sounds obvious, but it can be quite challenging in today’s music climate.

To combat the oversaturation of content and competitive climate for attention, speed has become a huge factor when it comes to making music. By speed, I mean how often you can release music consistently to stay top of mind and keep fans engaged. It may be challenging to balance the business and creative sides to produce quality music, but that has become the cost of entry.

Your success in the music industry ultimately starts with how good your music is. A good song can help jump start your career, but you need to keep pushing out music to build off that momentum.

Don’t fall into the belief that talent alone can sustain you, as there are other more important factors, like work ethic and promotion. Talent matters to a point, but if it doesn’t translate into “good” songs that gain exposure, then it won’t take you far.

Coverage Area

Best Questions to Ask a Remodeler Contractor

Does the Additions and Remodels job require permits? If so, will you be pulling them yourself?

Many jobs in Pennsylvania will require municipal permits in order to be approved by the town's inspector. It's always good to ask who will be responsible for pulling those permits, and if you'll be expected to do it. You'll almost never be told to pull your own, but knowing that Langhorne Additions and Remodels permits are required makes you appear to be a well informed customer.

How many contractors do you have working for you? How many vehicles are in your fleet?

This is important mostly for larger jobs. Clearly a two man operation is going to build a home much slower than a 15 man crew. This is also a good indication of the overall size of the Additions and Remodels company, if that's an area of concern for you. The reason you may want to ask about the fleet is that fleet size is a good indicator of the mobility of the company. Mobility may not sound important, but it's hard for the Langhorne contractors to get to job sites if they lack appropriate vehicles.

How long have you been in Additions and Remodels business for/How long have been serving the Langhorne area?

You'll always want to ask how long the company has been in business in Langhorne. While this isn't a guarantee that the company will do good work, companies with longevity on their side must be doing something right. That being said, there are newer companies that do great work. If the company is under three years old, ask where the owner was employed before and for how long. If he/she has a long history of employment, it's reasonable to infer that he or she decided to go into business for themselves after so many years of experience.

Are you insured and/or bonded for Additions and Remodels?

You'll certainly want to ask them this. Steer clear of any company that is not insured in Pennsylvania, because that means that any incidental damage they may do on your property will be a real hassle to recover compensation for. It is never wise to work with uninsured tradesmen of any kind. Most states also require that someone have insurance in order to be issued a trade license. If they say they're licensed but not insured, they're being less than truthful.

ASU Hockey Cruises to 10-2 Victory Over San Diego State

New, 2 comments

The Sun Devils improve to 8-0 on the season with David Jantzie scoring twice.

Allyson Cummings (Walter Cronkite Sports Network)

The second ranked Arizona State hockey team cruised to a 10-2 victory over San Diego State University Friday night. The Sun Devils scored the first seven goals of the contest before SDSU found the back of the net.

The Sun Devils showcased their depth in Oceanside Ice Arena and proved that the entire Division 1 roster is capable of playing on any given night.

Nine different Sun Devils scored a goal in the first game of the series, including first career ASU goals by Kory Chisholm, Connor Buchanan and Mike Smith. Phil Sansone saw action for the second time this season as he recorded two assists and Kyle Hughes scored a power play goal on a wicked slap shot from the top of the circle and he finished with three points. Goaltender Kyle Dietriech is now 15-0 in the last two seasons against Division 2 opponents.

Going into the game, the Sun Devils knew they needed to work on a couple of things. One in particular was their defensive mentality. After the first period of play, they had only given up one shot on goal.

The Sun Devils did a much better job of playing disciplined as they only had three penalties on the night. The only glaring problem of the night was defensive lapses in their own zone.

Defenseman Darcy Charrois got caught midway through the second period trying to catch Eric Stelnick from behind and his tripping penalty turned into a penalty shot goal. Minutes later, Jordan Young turned the puck over on the man advantage and the Sun Devils were caught too deep in the offensive zone. The play resulted in Kevin Vaughn's seventh goal of the season on a breakaway chance.

ASU finished two for six on the power play and successfully killed all three of their penalties. Despite an eight-goal margin of victory, there are still some minor adjustments Coach Greg Powers would like to make before Saturday nights game. Some of those adjustments are to take better control of the puck and continue to work on the specialty teams.

This Sun Devils team is something special and if they can put everything together soon and minimize their minor mistakes, there is no reason this team will not compete for an ACHA national championship.

Game two will take place Saturday night at 7 p.m.

ASU Football: Situation is dynamic at running back

New, 2 comments

Todd Graham views the offense a little differently this season

DJ Foster finds some shade under the goal post at practice Wednesday. He sat out with a migraine.
DJ Foster finds some shade under the goal post at practice Wednesday. He sat out with a migraine.
Nick Krueger/House of Sparky

Kalen Ballage is big and powerful, D.J. Foster is dynamic, Demario Richard is a good inside zone runner and Deantre Lewis is a slasher. This is how head coach Todd Graham described each of the running backs available to him after practice Wednesday morning.

He thinks the Sun Devils will be well served by using all of them this season.

"I can't imagine all the talent we have there and not getting those guys on the field," Graham said. "We utilize our guys in a lot of ways so we are a two-back set, there's going to be two backs on the field, we're going to utilize those guys."

Foster is still the odds on favorite to be the primary running back in 2014. Graham added that getting Foster 20 to 30 touches a game would be, "ideal," but  in order to use every player he wants to, the Sun Devils will need to run a lot of plays, a concept Graham fully understands.

"If we can run and speed up our tempo, we'd like to run 85 plays a game," Graham said. "I think that we're never going to be a one dimensional team, we're not going to sit there and hand it to him every play. We got a lot of guys."

Longino emerging as a potential second Devilbacker

At practice on Tuesday, Todd Graham put Antonio Longino in as a Devilbacker in 11 on 11, rushing off the edge. Wednesday, Longino was in the same spot and Graham acknowledged the switch, saying Longino has, "found a home at Devil."

"We've gone from not having any devils to having quite a few," Graham said. "I think De'Marieya Nelson and Longino are really similar and really different. Longino has never put his hand on the ground and the other likes to put his hand on the ground."

Graham mentioned that he was still planning on giving De'Marieya Nelson roughly 15 plays a game on offense and added that Marcus Washington is still in the mix at Devilbacker as well. Graham feels that having more than one candidate, or being indecisive about what to do at the position isn't a bad thing.

"I really like how that makes us diverse and if you notice I'm putting both of them (Nelson and Longino) out there at the same time," Graham said. " I'm using defenses where I can use both those guys off the edge and that's exciting."

  • Graham said he expects Jaxon Hood back early next week. Marcus Ball is out until at least the end of Camp Tontozona according to Graham. D.J. Foster was held out with a migraine today, Todd Graham called it "precautionary"
  • First team defense: Linemen: Tashon Smallwood-Demetrius Cherry-Marcus Hardison. Linebackers: De'Marieya Nelson (DEVIL), Carlos Mendoza (WILL), Salamo Fiso (SAM), Laiu Moeakiola (SPUR). Corners: Solomon Means, Lloyd Carrington. Safeties: Damarious Randall, Jordan Simone
  • First team offense: Running back: Kyle Middlebrooks Wide receivers: Jaelen Strong, Fred Gammage, Gary Chambers. Tight end: Grant Martinez
  • Second team defense: Linemen: Renell Wren-Connor Humphreys-Corey Smith Linebackers: Antonio Longino (DEVIL), Christian Sam (WILL), DJ Calhoun (SPUR), Alani Latu (SAM).  Corners: Armand Perry, Kweishi Brown. Safeties: Chad Adams, James Johnson
  • Second team offense: Running back: Kalen Ballage Wide receivers: Eric Lauderdale, Jalen Harvey
  • NFL team scouts at practice: New York Giants, Atlanta Falcons, Cleveland Browns, Houston Texans
  • Todd Graham interrupted his own interview with the media three times, yelling individually at Edmond Boateng, Demetrius Cherry and Renell Wren after he caught them walking off the field and wanted them to run.

BendPak two post vehicle lifts – safety issues relating to locking mechanisms

Health and Safety Executive - Safety alert

Department Name:
Field Operations Division

Bulletin No:

Issue Date:
28 November 2018

Target Audience:
All users of BendPak two-post vehicle lifts, Motor vehicle repair and associated industries, Suppliers

Key Issues:

  • There are up to 1700 or more BendPak two post vehicle lifts in use throughout Britain with potential faults
  • The lifts present a serious risk of a vehicle falling from the hoist with the potential of causing death or serious injury
  • Evidence obtained during an on-going investigation of a fatal incident has revealed concerns with the design, manufacture and supply of the BendPak two-post lifts
  • All users of BendPak two-post vehicle lifts should check the arm restraint gear on their lift and, if affected, take immediate action to replace

An investigation into the death of a motor vehicle mechanic, following a car falling from a two-post vehicle lift, has identified a serious risk. Investigations found that the arm locking mechanism of the BendPak two-post lift did not prevent the vehicle from falling.

This safety alert is aimed at users of BendPak two-post vehicle lifts to prevent the situation being repeated, and causing further serious injury or death.

Anyone using the BendPak two-post lift should act now. Users should check the arm restraint gear on their lift and, if affected, take immediate action to replace parts as detailed below.

An unknown number of BendPak two-post vehicle lifts have been supplied with arm restraint gears which allow complete disengagement from the arm locking mechanism, located on the carriage of the vehicle lift.

Also, in some of the lifts, the arm restraint gears are manufactured from a material that is insufficient to withstand the forces which satisfies the testing required by the harmonised standards relating to vehicle lifts. The current standard is BS EN 1493:2010.

The manufacturer has now redesigned the arm restraint gear. The new design is a machined part using a grade of steel which was found to be suitable when tested by the manufacturer. The gears now have circular rather than oval holes and a wider cross section which prevents disengagement.

Lifts which have not been supplied with this re-designed part still present a serious risk.

Arm restraint gear ring and pin assembly diagram

Action required:

Users of BendPak two-post lifts should:

1. Check

Users should check whether their arm restraint gear appears substandard. Lifts not supplied with the re-designed part will have arm restraint gears with:

If checks show that there is lateral movement in the arms then the lift should not be used again until the necessary replacement parts are fitted. As a temporary measure, it may be possible to continue to use the lift prior to replacement if a competent person has confirmed that the gears are fully meshed and regular checks are being carried out.

2. Replace

If the lift does not have the newly designed arm restraint gear take immediate action to replace it.

Users should contact their supplier, or the manufacturer, to get replacement parts. The gears should be steel, machined with circular holes. They should sit properly against the pin that the arm swings on without visible clearance.

BendPak have provided a video which demonstrates how this replacement can be carried out by a competent person.

3. Thorough examination by a competent person

Users should make sure that the lift is thoroughly examined and tested after replacing the gear. This is required in law under the Lifting Operations and Lifting Equipment Regulations 1998 (LOLER).

4. Maintain

Anyone using two post vehicle lifts should inspect and maintain them in accordance with the manufacturer's instructions.

Vehicle lifts are used throughout the motor vehicle repair (MVR) industry, including tyre and exhaust fitting centres. Two-post lifts have gained popularity over the last 20 years (they now outsell more traditional four-post lifts by over 3 to 1) at least in part because they have become available at increasingly lower cost.

Two-post lifts were originally used mainly for inspection and routine servicing (oil, tyre and exhaust changes etc), but are now commonly used for major work activities (though four-post lifts are still required for MOT testing).

Problems with the design, installation, use and maintenance of arm locking mechanisms continue to cause concern in newer machinery. Further details are available within the document - Sector Information Minute 03/2008/12 "Defective locking devices identified on modern 2-post lifts"

Vehicle lifts, including two-post lifts should be designed and manufactured in accordance with the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008. In particular, Schedule 2, Part 1 details the Essential Health and Safety Requirements (EHSRs) which should be followed. BS EN 1493:201 is a harmonised European Standard which can be used by manufacturers to demonstrate compliance with the EHSRs.

HSE's Science Division  has carried out tests on one vehicle lift which was involved in a near miss incident when a vehicle fell from it. They applied horizontal loads to locked arms to check compliance with EN 1493 Section 5.8.5, which requires that arm-locking systems are designed to resist a force of 4.5 % of the capacity of the lift without permanent deformation, or to resist a force of 6.75 % of the capacity without breakage. The tests revealed that if the arm locking gears were only 75% engaged (eg 15 mm over 20 mm depth) there was a dramatic reduction in the load required to cause failure (from about 230kg to 50kg).

A horizontal load of 50 kg could easily be applied by a person working on the vehicle (eg using a tool to remove a tight bolt or changing a light box) and the weight of the vehicle can also induce a horizontal load if a support pad is not perpendicular to the jacking point.

Although there have only been a limited number of HSE Science Division tests to date, they indicate that full engagement of arm locking gears is crucial. Failure to ensure full engagement of the locking mechanism can result in a vehicle falling from the vehicle lift and if persons are in the vicinity result in fatal or life changing injuries.

The designers, manufacturers and suppliers of this equipment are reminded of their duties set out in the Supply of Machinery (Safety) Regulations 2008 and by Section 6 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 1974.

Please pass this information to a colleague who may have this equipment.

For one, the French tend to dislike making a date obviously romantic and prefer for dating to play a much smaller role in their lives. Women seeking sex Faroe Islands in some countries, where people focus their efforts on pursuing partners via one-to-one interactions in potentially romantic settings, French men and women choose to keep things casual and incorporate finding love into their social lives.

They usually cater to specific age groups and sexual preferences too, so members can meet like-minded individuals.

The French Navajo nude pics to play by their own rules and this transcends to dating etiquette too. For instance, the kinds of dates you might go on during the initial stages of getting to know someone can be unique. In many western cultures, a typical dating scenario usually involves meeting for a drink, going out for dinner, or catching a movie at the cinema. In France, however, dating can look very different.

Receive updates

For instance, sharing a meal with someone has no romantic implication in France. In fact, it is Hot housewives want casual sex Dallas normal for two people of the opposite sex to enjoy dining together; even if one is single and the other is married or in a relationship. Instead, the French prefer to keep things casual during the initial stages of getting to know someone.

This means that dates will likely involve meeting up for casual drinks Paris singles dating a group of friends or taking an afternoon stroll.

It just means that they are more focused on getting to know a person before they become involved. And Dating someone after their spouse dies they do want a relationship, they will certainly let their partner know about Paris singles dating.

While it might be unfair to stereotype a whole nationthere are certain behavioral traits that you are likely to come across when dating in France. Furthermore, these can differ ificantly from other European countries.

Whether you are single or not, you should expect to see a lot of amorous behavior being thrown around; regardless of marital status.

The 15 best places that are good for singles in paris

You might say that flirting is an art form in this playful nation; this goes for both sexes, too. French women, for instance, are expected to play to their feminine side and be admired for their beauty and wit. They might smile in excess, blush, and laugh at your jokes, all the while playing with their hair.

Interestingly, many find the game more important than the catch. Fife adult swinger sexy fuck and Edison flair for flirting is important to be aware of as an expat, as it can sometimes give the wrong idea.

To avoid any confusion, it is better Paris singles dating just ask them directly. Surprisingly, the French like to keep a cool distance and not appear too eager when it comes to getting to know a potential love interest.

Some encouraging statistics to start

This literally translates to the quarter of an hour of politeness. Just make sure you stick around long enough to see them show up, to be sure.

And when they finally do, Is lsd a bad drug will usually ask for permission first. This is largely due to the fact that in France, kissing on the lips for the first Paris singles dating carries far more weight than in some other countries.

In fact, it is seen as a type of unwritten agreement that you are starting an exclusive relationship with someone. It is therefore not a good idea to kiss someone if you do not want to be in a relationship with them; after all, this can give off the wrong al and create misunderstanding. Because of this aspect of French culture, it is easy to see how the pace at which a relationship might develop is much slower than in some other countries. You can generally expect a certain level of intelligence and culture when dating the French.

In fact, politics is an important topic of conversation Paris singles dating France and is likely to pop up at some point. Talking about money is generally considered vulgar by French people.

This is good news if you value your independence and want to feel like an equal when dating someone. Fortunately for women, chivalry is certainly not dead in France. French citizens generally pride themselves on their hospitality and manners.

So when it comes to dating, men will usually hold the door open for women, make sure they get home safely, Paris singles dating so on. Aside from good manners, there is another reason for this. In France, women tend to decide if they are dating a person or not, which means that the man is expected to work hard to win her over.

And because it might take her several dates before she decides whether she wants to have a relationship with date him or not, the groundwork is fairly ificant. This perhaps explains why French men have a reputation for being charming and Mature german escorts with women. Paris singles dating a relationship might typically progress in France is really down to the individuals involved — or rather, the woman. And even when a couple has officially become exclusive and sealed the deal with that all-important first kiss, there are still no rules as to when to get intimate or meet the family.

Just like kissing for the first time, sleeping with someone is arguably seen as more meaningful in France. The French may be the masters of flirtation, but their true affection is actually more reserved than you might expect. This is because people are more focused on getting to know someone; therefore, sleeping together is seen as expressing a deeper form of affection. The good news is that Pof mobile app for android the French believe in being honest and open when it Paris singles dating to dating, there is no shame in discussing getting intimate first, too.

French people Best place for a sex vacation like to maintain their independence, so it could be some time Traits of greek men you are introduced to their family and friends. It is more Speed dating bordeaux avis to the fact that men and women prefer to keep their dating lives private; especially in the initial stages of a relationship.

However, you can assume that once they do invite you to meet their family and friends, the relationship has become serious.

Since the mids, for instance, the proportion of married couples in American online dating free country has been declining.

News Release

22 March 2018

Global Graphics in speaker line-up at major inkjet industry conference

Speakers at the inaugural US InkJet Conference in Chicago (April 12 – 13) include Global Graphics Software’s CTO Martin Bailey and the business development director of Meteor Inkjet, Jonathan Wilson, sister companies within Global Graphics PLC (Euronext: GLOG)

The event is billed by the organisers as “the place to be for inkjet engineering and inkjet chemistry” and both companies have attended the equivalent Europe event in Dusseldorf for several years.

Martin Bailey will be giving an update on new technology developments that improve inkjet image quality in a session entitled Avoiding the orange peel.

Mr Bailey will be presenting a technology breakthrough that mitigates the most common problems faced by inkjet press vendors when it comes to output quality. These are orange peel effects that is seen when solid colors are used on non-absorbent substrates such as tin cans, plastics or flexible packaging or when metallic inks are used, and, visible streaking on fairly absorbent substrates.  Both can be corrected in software that has been developed in Cambridge by Global Graphics Software’s development teams.

Sister company Meteor Inkjet will be giving a session called Complex engineering for complex challenges: Stepping up inkjet consistency and reliability. Mr Wilson will be arguing the case for a multi-disciplinary approach to inkjet press development.  In his conference session he cautions against the pitfalls of getting trapped in what he calls “a loop of infinite adjustment” which can occur if each element of a system is treated in isolation.

“The growing demand for high speed, single pass industrial inkjet systems in a myriad of applications presents manufacturers with ever trickier technical challenges,” he says. “Tackling these issues requires a multi-disciplinary approach, uniting skills from hardware, software and color management to meet reliability and print consistency requirements.”

2016 Vox Award Winner

Written by Ian. Posted in Blog, Generic Ramblings, Radio Work, Voiceover

So this happened…!

Vox award winner

Vox Award Winner..

Vox Award WinnerI was more than happy enough just to be nominated but to find myself a winner of  this Vox Award was truly awesome. Over the past few years a lot of hard work has gone into what I do and it’s fantastic to be recognised, particularly in the field of Imaging and Promo voiceover which is the genre I have been involved in the longest.

My thanks must go to Chris & Mark at Devaweb who are a tremendous production company based in Manchester Media City as this is their award too. They produced the winning work and do their magic on a daily basis to produce outstanding finished audio. The also produced the award entry and you can take a listen here…

Thanks too to Steve Martin of Earshot Creative, who was the kind sponsor of this award. In fact if you missed going to Vox and want to catch up you check out Steve’s live blog of the event here

Really really pleased, and thanks also to the judges, and organisers Posy & Stevie and team @VoxEvents for putting on a great night, and my fellow winners & finalists too. You can read about all of the winners here

Are British brands actually British..?

Music Imaging on WildHitz UK

Written by Ian. Posted in Blog, Generic Ramblings, Voiceover

If there’s one thing I’ve got more experience of voicing than anything else it has to be Imaging. Going way back 15 years or so, some radio idents were the very first thing I did as a voiceover, and being from a radio background that’s what I’ve done the most. Imaging can be as varied as anything else, it depends what “image” you are looking to project, are you soft and velvety, heavy grunge rock, or the latest dance music..? It doesn’t matter, what does though is making sure you get the right imaging to seamlessly match up with your product.

Get it right though and it can make a massive difference to your output, it’s the cherry on the cake, and really sets up what your channel is all about. Without imaging, or a brand identity you’re just playing songs, and as everybody knows, it’s much more fun going to a party with a theme than just sitting around eating crisps.

Recently I’ve been working with a new online music channel called WildHitz, who after experiencing much success in Europe have now launched a channel just for the UK. The concept is simple, current big hits, very much like a TV channel but the difference is you can skip the tunes you don’t like and if you create a user log in then it also remembers the kind of tunes you like. Interspersed is hot imaging with great visuals which create a real cool sense of fun. It’s all about enjoying life, living for the weekend, and the way the branding is produced really gives the channel its sense of identity.

You can check it out here wildhitz.co.uk

And here is a selection of how the imaging featuring my voice sounds

Mid-Market Companies Using Customer Experience to Develop Industry-Changing Competitive Advantages

There has been a lot of talk lately about customer experience. In fact, according to Gartner, over 80% of marketers expect to compete mostly or entirely on customer experience. But what does this actually mean? And what is the impact this trend has for mid-market companies?

Ultimately, the customer experience is the collection of all interactions a customer has with a brand throughout their ongoing journey and relationship leading up to, through, and beyond a transaction. Primarily enabled by technology, those brands that design, deploy, and evolve positive customer experiences throughout the entire journey reap tremendous benefits in the marketplace – as well as find new opportunities to reduce business efficiencies and create new areas of value. In fact, businesses that lead with the customer experience find that:

  • 74% of consumers are somewhat likely to purchase on the customer experience alone (Forbes / Arm Treasure Data)
  • Consumers will pay a 16% price premium for great customer experience. (PwC)
  • CX drives over two-thirds of customer loyalty, more than ‘brand’ and ‘price’ combined. (Gartner)
  • Executives say the top benefits of digital transformation for customer experience are improved operational efficiency (40%), faster time to market (36%) and the ability to meet customer expectations (35%). (PTC)

Understanding this in the mid-market is where real opportunity lies. Leading with the mindset of customer experience, businesses create new competitive advantages that truly set themselves apart in the marketplace. There is a trend where smaller, more nimble companies in the mid-market space exploit key areas of pain for customers and the industry, building a moat that not only differentiates, but increases their value and profitability in the marketplace.

Let’s face it, there are certain aspects of a customer journey in certain industries that customer’s absolutely hate—whether going into a store, applying for financing, or other issues. These pain points become moments of avoidance, defection, or drop-off while doing business with a brand. However, they have also become opportunities for disruptors or competitors to create new value. Many of these pain points are created by years of legacy or silos coming together to create a business process, not necessarily to create a positive customer experience, rather creating moments of pain.

On a micro-level, there are some companies that are taking these pain points and building entire businesses around solving them:

Uber: Uber didn’t create the taxi industry, but they took the chore of calling one, blindly waiting for it to arrive, and often having a poor riding and paying experience and built a lucrative business around it. Uber transparently connected riders with drivers in a seamless click of a button, giving the power to the consumer with a simple question “Where to?”

Casper: Casper didn’t set out to make a superior, innovative mattress. They set out to solve the chore of buying a mattress—going into a store and laying on a mattress while a sales associate awkwardly stands over you explaining how comfortable you are. Casper changed this behavior by connecting different technologies together (bed in a box, e-commerce, and large item logistics) and put the experience behind a click of a button and a 100-night product trial guarantee.

Warby Parker: Warby Parker didn’t create eyeglasses, but they made getting stylish, high-quality eyeglasses accessible. In the face of a near monopolistic industry, Warby Parker did a few things to solve consumer pain points. They changed the pricing structure by reducing the amount of markup and overhead for their products. They changed how consumers tried the products by offering five pairs for in-home trial, only sending back the ones you don’t like. They also used technology to take this a step further in offering online vision-screening and augmented-reality product trials.

On the flip side, there are moments of cherish that companies are capitalizing on to drive brand affinity and growth. This opens the aperture of how we should be viewing our consumers and how we should be interacting with them. Once the pain points are removed, the next phase of growth is immersing the consumer into the brand promise in a way that continuously fulfills the relationship between the brand and consumer. For example:

Airbnb: Travel is a massive passion point and Airbnb has gone beyond its core service offering of lodging. It provides its consumers with local experiences and journeys. These are provided throughout the shopping process and beyond purchase, giving a holistic experience that goes beyond the product.

Glossier: Glossier has built its brand off the back of a highly successful blog, providing products and experiences for their fanatical readers. The core of its brand is really built around a skincare routine, but each element of the experience from learning about your personal routine, to shopping, to unboxing, to insider physical events creates moments of joy for their customers. Glossier continues to grow its base by fulfilling its brand promise with each touchpoint, listening to, and connecting its brand to the needs of its customers.

All in all, mid-markets have a massive opportunity to deliver new value propositions in the marketplace while reducing or eliminating business efficiencies for maximum profitability. By leading with the customer experience and enabling key interaction points with technology, mid-market companies can create competitive advantages that their larger competitors wouldn’t be able to match with speed, agility and decision-making advantages going to mid-market companies.

All Saints Team Up With Sting For “Message In A Bottle” Cover

Mike Wass | April 14, 2020 1:14 pm
All Saints' 'Red Flag': Review
They're back! We review All Saints' long-awaited comeback album, 'Red Flag.'

Well, this is a little unexpected! UK girl group All Saints is back with a cover of The Police’s “Message In A Bottle” — featuring Sting, no less. It turns out the pop veterans, who are probably still best known in the US for 1997 smash “Never Ever,” performed the song at a charity event in 2018 and then added it to their live set. “We were in the studio working on a new arrangement of the song for a radio session and we decided to record what we had come up with,” the ladies explain.

“We were delighted when Sting heard our original demo and offered to add his vocals to the track.” Of course, All Saints made a welcome return to music in 2016. They ended a decade-long hiatus with Red Flag and promptly landed a top five album in the UK. The girl group then followed it up with another album in 2018 called Testament. It will be interesting to see if their remarkably faithful cover of “Message In A Bottle” (they don’t even change pronouns) is the first taste of a larger body of work. Listen below.

Do you love this version of the song? Let us know below, or by hitting us up on Facebook and Twitter!

Swollen Face from Allergic Reaction

Last weekend we had a bit of a scare with Roxy. She was fine when we woke up, had a nice morning walk, and her usual breakfast. I left for a quick trip to the grocery store, and when I came back Roxy greeted me at the door. But, it didn’t look like our Roxy – her face was so swollen! She almost looked like a cartoon version of herself – her muzzle had at least doubled in size, and the rest of her face (around her eyes, forehead, and cheeks) were really, really puffy. She wasn’t acting like she was in pain at all, but I FREAKED OUT! (I apologize for not having photos to show you – I was in such a panic! Didn’t even think of it!) Brad calmed me down.. after doing some quick research online we discovered it’s pretty common. Online forums suggested that we give her Benadryl, so I rushed to Walgreens to buy some.

Within five minutes of giving her one 25mg tablet of Benadryl (basic over-the-counter Benadryl pills), the swelling drastically went down.We gave her 1 more tablet about 6 hours later because she was still a little swollen, and when she woke up the following morning she was back to herself again. (Note: Online resources suggested to give 1 mg of Benadryl per pound that the dog weighs. We only gave Roxy one 25mg tablet and it worked just fine even though she’s nearly 3 times that. I’d be safe and start with small doses).

Although we’re not sure what caused this reaction, it’s very likely that it was a bee sting. Roxy does this thing where she nips at bees that buzz by her. I think this time she finally caught one!! Hopefully she learned her lesson. But just in case, I will always make sure to have Benadryl in my medicine cabinet!

Here are some pictures I found online of other dogs that looked similar to Roxy

Swollen Face from bug bite

Has this ever happened to your dog? I would have taken her to the vet, but like I mentioned before she was acting normal – she just looked like Sloth from “The Goonies”! 🙂

"Heeeey yooooou guuuuuuys!!"

Perceived Risk of Colorectal Cancer and Barriers to Screening among Adult Saudi: A Population-Based Study | Abstract

International Journal of Medical Research & Health Sciences (IJMRHS)
ISSN: 2319-5886 Indexed in: ESCI (Thomson Reuters)

Perceived Risk of Colorectal Cancer and Barriers to Screening among Adult Saudi: A Population-Based Study

Author(s):Thamer H. Alghamdi*, Abuobaida E. E. Abukhelaif, Naif Abdullah M.Alzahrani and Turki Abdullah A. Alzahrani

Objectives: Aimed to assess the level of awareness and the perceived factors about CRC screening among adult Saudi. Methodology: A Population-based, cross-sectional study. Participants: Adult Saudi general population. Results: Among 1612 respondents 1568 eligible were included. Neither gender (p=0.51), level of education (p=0.72), income (p=0.22), nor marital status (p=0.88) were found to be statistically associated with willingness to undergo CRC screening. With regards to the awareness related to CRC incidence and risk such as “leading cause death due to CRC” “increased age is associated with increased risk of developing CRC” “both men and women are at risk for getting CRC” “People with a family history of CRC are at higher risk” and” most CRCs begin as a growth in the colon or rectum” was found to be 29.5%, 31.5%, 37.7%, 28.8%, and 22.5% respectively. 12.7% of the respondents were agreed to be routinely screened for CRC at age 45, 22.4% can identify the required frequency of CRC screening. Those who had not heard about CRC screening methods were female and were young (p=0.003); with low educational level (p<0.001). (61%) were ready to undergo CRC screening if recommended by their medical doctor while 16% of them said they would never think of doing CRC screening (p<0.0001). Regarding CRC screening options, 53% select FOBT and 39% preferred colonoscopy (p<0.0001). (57.0%) revealed that their “Fear of finding cancer “was a barrier to screening. Conclusion: Majority of our respondents shows insufficient awareness regarding CRC screening guideline and CRC screening methods.
