Is there anything that says "summer's here!" more than a great cookout? And is there anything more disappointing than dried-out grilled chicken, raw-in-the-middle burgers, and burned kebabs? That said, once you learn how to do it, cooking on the grill can be one of the healthiest and tastiest ways to prepare food. We've stripped grilling down to its basics, giving you all the tools you need to make a great meal—"Kiss the Cook" apron not included.
The first question any aspiring griller must tackle: charcoal or gas? Each has its advantages. Charcoal grills are thought to give food more of a smoky flavor (as do any flavored wood chips you add). They're also generally cheaper than gas grills. But they are messier and take more work. Gas grills need less supervision and they're more predictable—you can control the heat with a turn of the dial.
[ 1 ] A pair of long-handled tongs for moving food around on the grill (the giant fork that comes with most barbecue sets is useless; it will pierce meats and let all the juices run out).
[ 2 ] A large spatula for flipping burgers or turning whole fish.
[ 3 ] Elbow-length oven mitts, hot pads, and dish towels.
[ 4 ] A long-handled pastry brush for applying sauces and glazes.
[ 5 ] Skewers. Wood ones are better than metal, as they don't poke large holes in the food. Use two at once, and you'll keep food items from spinning around on the grill.
[ 6 ] A side table to hold plates, food, etc.
[ 7 ] Clean plates and platters for food coming off the grill (don't put cooked foods on dishes that have already held raw meat).
[ 8 ] Heavy-duty aluminum foil to package up delicate vegetables, and for whole fish. Alternatively, you can use vegetable or fish baskets, but choose nonstick or be sure to coat them well with cooking spray.
[ 9 ] An instant-read thermometer to check on foods that grill slowly.
Preparation is key no matter how you're cooking, but when you're working on the grill, it's particularly crucial. If you gather all your supplies and do all the food prep in advance, you won't have to leave the grill unattended while you run inside. You'll need to remember to marinate if necessary and, if you're using wood skewers for kebabs, soak the skewers in water for at least 30 minutes before loading them up with meat or veggies. That way they're less likely to burn.
Always make sure your grill grate is clean before you start cooking. For best results, scrub a metal grate with a wire brush (or a big wad of crumpled tinfoil) after it begins to warm up. Finally, even if your guests are starting to grumble, wait until your grill is thoroughly heated before beginning to cook.
Natural hardwood charcoal burns cleaner and hotter than briquettes, which often contain fillers. If you do use briquettes, choose those labeled hardwood and avoid the self-lighting kind, which are saturated with petroleum.
You can use starter fluid if you like, but it's easy to light a charcoal fire with a chimney starter: Load the top of the metal canister with charcoal, stuff newspaper in the bottom, and light the paper with a match. The updraft spreads the fire from the paper to the charcoal and in 30 minutes your coals will glow. Turn the starter over to dump out the coals. Spread them evenly or, if you are going to do indirect grilling, bank the coals to one side of the grill.
And remember, don't use gasoline or highly volatile fluids to ignite charcoal. And never add starter fluid to an existing fire.
The two main methods of grilling are known as direct heat and indirect heat. In direct grilling, the food sits right over the heat source. This is best for vegetables, lean fish, and small pieces of poultry. In indirect grilling, the food sits on the cooler side of the grill, farthest from the hot coals or the flame (for charcoal, you'll want to load the coals in advance so that one side will be fuller than the other). But even foods that are typically grilled on direct heat can benefit from resting on a cooler part of the grill to finish off so they stay juicy. The best foods to grill indirectly are tougher cuts of meat, large roasts, and whole chickens and turkeys.
How you work once you're cooking is also important. Don't place food too close together on the grill; air needs to circulate around the food so that it sears properly, and your fire also has to have the air it needs for fuel. And don't move the food around too often. You won't have sticking problems if you let the food really sear and turn it only once.
To grill a whole fish, like the tilapia pictured here, fill the cleaned fish with herbs, lemon slices, or other seasonings. Brush the skin with olive oil. You can then cook it directly on a well-oiled grill, place it in a fish basket, or wrap it in foil. If using foil, remember that the fish won't have as much smoked flavor, but it will be nice and moist. (If you want a charred effect, you can slip the fish out of its foil when it's mostly cooked and lay it right on the grill to finish.) A whole small fish needs about 5 to 7 minutes per side; for medium, 10 to 12 minutes per side; and 20 minutes per side for large.


Happy Friday! Any big plans for the weekend? I head back to NYC tomorrow morning after a fun week of vacation in Seaside, FL. I'll be sad to say goodbye to my family (especially my niece and nephew) after such a fun week together. Thank you to everyone who emailed/tweeted/instagram commented and shared their favorite spots in the 30A/Seaside/Destin area. I tried to visit as many as I could! Before stepping in to my last full day on vacation, I wanted to share my favorite links from this past week.
-Feeling particularly inspired by this design firm's portfolio. - Studio Life.style.
Idyllic seating arrangement designed by Summer Thorton Design, featured on Circa Lighting's website.
I'm excited to bring you another comprehensive guide to one of my favorite pockets of New York: the Flatiron District! Generally speaking, the Flatiron District is bound by Union Square and Greenwich Village to the south, Chelsea to the west, 25th Street and NoMad to the north, and Gramercy Park to the east. It has long been associated with some of the best dining in the city, great home decor stores, and a few iconic structures- like the Flatiron Building and the Met Life Building. Read on for my must-see spots in the district.
I have been working at 31st and Fifth for about a year now, so my close proximity to the Flatiron area has given me ample opportunity to explore and notate my favorite spots for you guys. Read on for my favorite places to eat!
Tomorrow morning I fly to Florida to spend a week on the beach with my family. I can't wait to hang out with my niece and nephew and just relaxxxx. Is there anything as relieving as putting up your "out of office" message on email? I think not. On that note, if anyone has recommendations for cool things to do or great places to eat in Destin please do let me know (why am I already hearing crickets?). Read on for this week's links!
A teenager's summer bucket list was found last week in an Urban Outfitters dressing room, and her list is simultaneously horrifying and impressive. The New York Times rebutted with this fabulous 35-year-old woman's bucket list.
Today the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale opens to everyone so let the mayhem begin. I was personally crushed to find that many of the items I had in my cart where already sold out. Thankfully, these, these and these are still available as I had my eye on all 3 since first scouring the sale. Also grabbing this which will be perfect for OU football games, Also: this, this, and this.
I've always had a bit of a crush on this guy. He's making me want to travel to India, stat.
Vacation or trip? A Helpful Guide for Parents. Even though I'm not a parent I found this very funny.
I plan to try this soon. I've become acutely aware of how much time I spend mindlessly scrolling through my phone and it isn't adding to my life or making me happier; in fact, it's starting to make me angry. I want to be more in the moment and content without needing to revert to opening my phone when I have a few idle minutes to spare. My first step was disabling push notifications on Instagram and deleting the Facebook app. So far, so good. In fact, it's a bit relieving! I think learning to curate how much time I actively spend on apps is the goal. Does anyone else struggle with this?
Thank you My Domaine for including moi in your small space living article.
On Monday I shared my favorite clothing/accessory selections from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale, so today I thought I'd share all the great home decor I've found that's also part of this insane sale. If you're new to the game, don't worry, I'll catch you up to speed. The Nordstrom Anniversary Sale is truly one of a kind- each year, the store runs a sale that features all the hot items predicted for the coming season. That means you can stock up on a Burberry jacket for nearly half the price, everyday booties that'll carry you through fall, and the coveted Le Mer miracle working cream at the lowest price you'll likely ever come across. I love that home decor is part of the sale, too! My favorite discovery from perusing the home section of the sale was the Dash & Albert rug offerings. We specify Dash & Albert runners and rugs all the time for design clients because they are extremely durable and beautiful. Many of their rugs are indoor/outdoor, which tells you just how functional they are. There are other great vases, pillows, rugs, and even a bar cart included- see below for my picks.
The creativity! The genius! I'm stunned.
Miles also recently released a collection of furniture with Ballard Designs. I love that he put his unique, personal touch on items that are priced accessibly. I can't get enough of the frill detail on this swivel chair skirt or the shade on this column lamp.
4.) Kensie Skirted Tweed Coat $139.90 (Normally $218). And I also love this guy.
9.) Vince Camuto Fileana Split Shaft Bootie $99 (Normally $149.95). For a taller option to carry you through the winter, I love these.
There's nothing more feminine than a skirted vanity table. Designer Margaret Kirkland paired a white silk skirt with a chair upholstered in Sister Parish's Dolly fabric in this Park Avenue pied-à-terre. And what's that in the background? Bowood wallpaper, of course!
Have a great Monday, and if you wanna talk skirts, I'm down! Tweet me @peakoftreschic.
1.) Meri Meri Tassel Basket, $35. Love this little guy too!
Rug shopping stops: ABC Carpet & Home, Ace Vintage Rugs, The Rug Company, Studio Four, and Crosby Street Studios.
Cheers to a fab weekend ahead!
Or maybe just an occasional chair?
Have an inkling for something rattan? Check out my favorite picks below...and have a lovely 4th holiday!

Home Government & Politics US Government The Constitution
Why Was the Ninth Amendment Created?
The Ninth Amendment is part of the Bill of Rights and provides further detail into the rights of United States citizens. The Ninth Amendment was developed primarily by James Madison.
James Madison focused on developing the Ninth Amendment to ensure that people did not believe the only rights that they had were those that were expressed in the Bill of Rights. There were arguments that this was unnecessary because there was no way that one could list out all of the rights that citizens had, and thus no one could provide an accurate document for rights. However, the Ninth Amendment was developed to specifically highlight that this was not the case.

Once you see how easy it is to make homemade pastry cream you will be making this pie on a daily basis just because you can!
Whether you make the custard and add the bananas to it while it is still hot, or do what I did in the video and have that pastry cream made up in advance, it's not too much difference.
It's really just your preference on how you want to work.
I happened to have a giant recipe of Pastry Cream already made up for my Napoleans~ a.k.a Gatueax Mille Fueille so this is where my idea for making the banana cream pie came from in the first place!
Oh how I love building on recipes because as you can see you can come up with some really fabulous last minute ideas from leftovers!
If you are going to prepare the pastry cream recipe specific for this pie contrary to how I show in the video, you will simply add the sliced bananas as soon as you are done cooking the custard and after you have strained it.
Prepare the Nilla Wafer cookie crust by crushing the cookies in a food processor and add the melted butter.
Prepare the pastry cream recipe and once you have strained it at the last step add in the sliced bananas.
Banana cream pie must stay refrigerated at all times.
sure they would love your pie, I'll have to try this recipe soon!!! Also, I would love to see your take on a Banana Pudding Cake!
Im not sure exactly which recipe you are looking for, but there is a search bar on the top right column of my page- you can type in whatever you are looking for and if I have made it- It will show up!
This is a pie that I have to make for my grandpa he will love it. Now about that banana pudding cake I have to say yes please please please please!!
And is that bananas foster cake still on youtube? I absolutely love everything banana.
What kinf of cookies are Nila wafers? We don't have them in europe and I am wondering what I can use to substittute them. Also how would a layer of ganache on top of the cookie crust be, before adding the banana pudding?
Hi Gretchen, I would like to make this pie into a cake….what cake should I be using to get all the flavors of this amazing pie?
Hi Gretchen, I have baked the cake and assembled it…..would like to send you a pic.
Hi Gretchen! Thank you so much for the recipe, I'm excited to try it out 😀 Big question, in my country I don't think we have Nilla wafers, can I use graham instead? I also wanna know from your experience what technique produces a sturdier crust? Baking or freezing? My last experience with graham crust was a nightmare 🙁 I was using a basic graham recipe that required baking (I baked it for as long as I could to get it as firm as possible) and I was making 4 huge banoffee pies for a friends birthday. I had to make the crusts the day before and send them the next day and by the time they got to my friend the crusts were too flimsy to be sliced, breaking everywhere and had no support. The sides of the pies totally collapsed. I'm so sad because all that effort was a waste. I'm curious about how bakeries do graham based pies, since their pies stay in the display case for days and still hold up.
How much is 3cups of nila wafers in grams?
This cheese cake is so good. I thought I liked cheese cake before but now… Gretchen all I can say is now you got me hooked on your channel.
I'm wondering if you have ever made a no-bake pie with vegan marshmallows like Trader Joe's or Dandies. Marshmallow cheesecake, marshmallow (fruit) chiffon or whatever. Thanks!
Hi Gretchen: I need some thoughtful advice. I have successfully made pastry cream many times. This time all seemed to be going well, in fact if anything it seemed thicker than usual. I sieved and chilled it but it did not set properly; being tasty but runny. Any idea what I did wrong?
Thanks, will go back and give it another whirl…!
Hi Gretchen, Do you think I could use this banana pie recipe as a cake filling? My nephew has requested chocolate cake with banana filling for his wedding. Doesn't sound like something I would like but it's not my wedding!! I can't really find a banana filling recipe.


How to Get The Best Price On Auto Insurance After Making Online Comparisons?
Paid online ads from insurers or companies looking forward to attracting new clients.
Local businesses that look to contact you according to your location when you list your requirement.
Third-party companies that are in the business of negotiating with insurance providers to provide you auto insurance quotes according to the criteria you have specified and thereafter, put you in contact with an insurance provider.
The options that are available will give you a feeling it is not so easy to get auto insurance quotes online, but you complete your purchase from the comfort of your home simply by providing the required information.
Are You Getting The Best Auto Insurance Quote When You Search Online?
Did You Get The Best Insurance When You Made Your Purchase By Asking for An Online Auto Insurance Quote?
In 2012, auto insurance quotes in the UK were compared by Google which had a service under the name of "Google Compare" but, the service was ultimately closed both in the US and the UK and therefore, when you make a search for auto insurance quotes, you are likely depending on the kind of results that look as useful to you.
As mentioned above, the search results you get to see, could be displayed for a variety of reasons and also from a number of sites. You are possibly not witnessing the best auto insurance quotes simply because insurance companies do not have any mechanism to give you prices for a particular spot. However, people successfully manage to conduct research and find online quotes for auto insurance by using various websites. It is this effort that allows people to get the best auto insurance quotes from the market.
A better method of getting auto insurance quotes which are most affordable, can come from the insurance company you are presently dealing with because you have the option of negotiating with them and asking for a better price rather than shopping around online. The information that is requested by online providers is quite basic and will give you no information about promotions, discounts or programs which may have been introduced and the individual or company providing the quote will only be able either to add on or give you more information about the additional features when you contact them.
What Is The Best Strategy When Getting Online Auto Insurance Quotes?
When Searching For Auto Insurance Quotes With Great Prices And Coverage, A Personal Discussion With A Licensed Professional Must Also Be Held.
Ever since online purchases have become popular, it is common for customers to conduct research on the products they need over the Internet in an attempt to find great quality and best prices. The search you conduct for auto insurance quotes must be relevant and provide you with non-biased information to help you understand how you can get the best value for your money as well as an affordable price for the highest coverage.
Online quotes will serve their purpose when you conduct research and decide to price shop but you must also have a discussion with a licensed professional who can assist you in reviewing your needs.
Online Auto Insurance Quotes Are Designed For Standard Situations Which May Not Apply To Individual Requirements. However, The Current Insurance Provider May Be Able to Offer You A Better Deal Than Online Insurance Providers.
When you begin searching for the best prices online, you will certainly find that most online quotes are designed for standard situations which may not apply to you. It is highly possible that you could get additional advantages by speaking to someone over the phone to have your situation reviewed before you decide to complete your purchase.
When you receive an auto insurance quote from an online provider, you must understand that the individual concerned is motivated to sell you the insurance. They are trying to grab the opportunity to get you insured but when you communicate with them to understand how they can help you it is possible for you to be surprised.
It would be a better option for you to shop around and negotiate the auto insurance pricing for your car because it could possibly save you hundreds of dollars every year. Changes in the type of coverage offered and the discounts may be visible to you during that time the insurance policy is underwritten.
Requesting for auto insurance quotes online is a great way to begin collecting the information you need. In most cases, you will be asked to call the insurance company or the provider with a request for more information which simply means that you are required to have a full-fledged discussion with an individual before you can purchase your auto insurance policy.
If you are required to go through the entire routine without major changes, wouldn't it be better for you to have a discussion with your current insurance provider? You could possibly be liable for loyalty discounts just for being an existing customer of the insurance company. Therefore, you are advised to consider carefully before you make an attempt to understand how you can get the best prices on auto insurance after conducting an online search.

Fytoftoroza drzew (ang. Littleleaf disease) – choroba drzew wywołana przez zaliczane do lęgniowców grzybopodobne gatunki organizmów z rodzaju Phytophthora. Zaliczana jest do grupy fytoftoroz. W Polsce do tej pory zidentyfikowano następujące wywołujące ją gatunki: P. alni, P. cactorum, P. cambivora, P. cinnamomi, P. citricola, P. citrophthora, P. cryptogea i P. ramorum.

Historia
Jest to choroba badana od stosunkowo niedawna. Po raz pierwszy opisano ją w USA  jako nagłe zamieranie dębów. W ciągu dwóch lat od pojawienia się objawów choroba ta powodowała obumieranie całych drzew. Była to fytoftoroza wywoływana przez gatunek Phytophthora ramorum. W ciągu 10 lat choroba rozprzestrzeniła się wzdłuż wybrzeża USA i Kanady na długości około 1200 km, wystąpiła także w stanach Waszyngton i Oregon. W Europie najpierw zaobserwowano występowanie tego patogena na różanecznikach i kalinie bodnateńskiej, później także na buku, dębie korkowym i kilkudziesięciu innych gatunkach drzew. Pod koniec lat 90. XX wieku w Anglii zaobserwowano nagłe zamieranie olszy spowodowane przez Phytophthora alni. Choroba ta bardzo szybko rozprzestrzeniła się w całej Europie.

Znaczenie
Fytoftoroza drzew atakuje liczne gatunki drzew i w leśnictwie stanowi duże zagrożenie. Znana jest również w sadownictwie. Tu występuje u wszystkich gatunków drzew ziarnkowych i drzew pestkowych i nazywana jest zgnilizną pierścieniową podstawy pnia drzew owocowych.

Gatunki z rodzaju Phytophthora rozprzestrzeniają się głównie przez wodę. Atakują roślinę przez system korzeniowy lub nasadę łodygi. Połączenie sieci wodnych różnych krajów powoduje, że z łatwością przedostają się przez granice państwowe. Rozprzestrzeniane bywają także wraz z importowanymi sadzonkami drzew.

Choroba atakuje drzewa w każdym wieku, począwszy od kiełkujących siewek po stare drzewa. Typowymi objawami fytoftorozy drzew są: zgorzel siewek (zarówno przedwschodowa, jak i powschodowa), zgnilizna korzeni, brunatnienie podstawy pędu, mokre wycieki na pniu, nekroza, usychanie liści i obumieranie drzew.

W Polsce dopiero po 2000 r. rozpoczęto na większą skalę badanie patogenów wywołujących tę chorobę. Udało się z Unii Europejskiej pozyskać fundusze na finansowanie tych badań. Na I międzynarodowej konferencji w Jedlni koło Radomia powołano zespół naukowców z 20 krajów, którzy wspólnie mają pracować nad rodzajem Phytophthora.

Fytoftorozy poszczególnych drzew
 Fytoftoroza brzozy Wywołują ją  P. cactorum i P. citricola. Na młodych siewkach następuje ich zbrązowienie lub zbrunatnienie, na starszych żółknięcie liści i zamieranie pędu. U roślin 1-2 letnich żółkną i brązowieją liście, system korzeniowy jest słabo rozwinięty, czasami brunatnieje pęd u nasady. Wśród starszych drzew następuje zamieranie całych konarów i partii korony. Na pniach, na wysokości do kilku metrów nad ziemią pojawiają się czarne, nieregularne i mokre plamy. Czasami wypływa z nich ciecz, która cieknąc po pniu pozostawia brunatne zacieki. W nasadzie pnia po ściągnięciu kory widoczne jest zbrunatniałe drewno, a korzenie brunatnieją i rozpadają się.
 Fytoftoroza buka Wywołują ją P. cactorum, P. citricola i P. cambivora. Pęd i korzenie siewek brunatnieją jeszcze przed ukazaniem się na powierzchni ziemi.Na starszych siewkach następuje przewężenie pędu i również jego brunatnienie, później brązowienie liści i zamieranie pędu. Na korzeniach siewek widoczna jest zgnilizna korzeni, zazwyczaj tylko na ich części. Na kilkuletnich drzewkach następuje brązowienie liści i zamieranie całych pędów. U podstawy pnia można dostrzec zbrunatnienie, stopniowo rozszerzające się do góry oraz czarne, nieregularne plamy, na których czasami następuje wyciek bursztynowej cieczy. U starszych drzew początkowo następuje obumieranie konarów, później całych partii korony i wreszcie całego drzewa. Korzenie stopniowo zamierają.
 Fytoftoroza dębu Wywołują ją P. cactorum, P. cinnamomi, P. citricola, P. quercina. Objawy: zgorzel siewek przedwschodowa i powschodowa, żółknięcie i brązowienie liści siewek, zgnilizna ich korzeni i podstawy pędu. Porażone siewki łatwo wyciągają się z ziemi. U kilkuletnich drzew zgnilizna u nasady pędu, początkowo punktowa, później rozprzestrzeniająca się na cały obwód pnia. Na pniach starszych drzew nekroza rozszerzająca się od podstawy pnia w górę, w końcu obejmująca cały pień. Często pojawiają się czarne plamy wydzielające ciemnobursztynowe krople cieczy.
 Fytoftoroza jarząbu Wywołuje ją P. cactorum. Liście siewek czerwienieją. Część korzeni gnije. Na drzewach u nasady pędu pojawia się czerwonobrunatna zgnilizna, zazwyczaj po jednej stronie pędu. rozszerzająca się w górę pnia. Liście po jednej stronie drzewa żółkną, brunatnieją i drzewo stopniowo zamiera, najpierw z jednej strony, potem całe. Na obumarłym drzewie u nasady pnia występują czerwonobrunatne, martwe tkanki.
 Fytoftoroza jesionu Wywołuje ją P. citricola. U siewek liście żółkną, potem brunatnieją. Siewki zamierają. Ich korzenie są zredukowane, zbrunatniałe, podstawa pędu gnije. Na drzewach u nasady pnia występuje zgnilizna i pękanie kory, następuje zahamowanie wzrostu drzewa, jaśnienie liści i zamieranie korony po tej stronie, gdzie jest plama u nasady pnia.
 Fytoftoroza jodły Wywołuje ją P. citricola. Igły siewek i kilkuletnich drzewek żółkną, potem brązowieją. Siewki zamierają. U nasady pnia młodych drzewek tworzy się nekroza. Cały pęd brunatnieje i drzewko obumiera. Pod jego korą u nasady pnia czerwonobrunatne tkanki. U kilku i kilkunastoletnich drzew igły na wierzchołkach pędu brunatnieją, a pędy zawijają się w dół. Zgnilizna rozszerza się od nasady pnia na wysokość kilkudziesięciu centymetrów nad ziemię i roślina obumiera. W czasie letniej i deszczowej pogody odbywa się to bardzo szybko.
 Fytoftoroza klonu Wywołują ją P. cactorum, P. cambivora. Liście siewek żółkną i brązowieją. Na najniższych liściach pojawia się nekroza, zaczynająca się od ogonka liściowego i rozprzestrzeniająca się stopniowo na całą niemal blaszkę. System korzeniowy brunatnieje, podstawa pędu gnije. Drzewka zamierają, ale czasami z nasady pnia spod ziemi wybijają nowe pędy. Korzenie tych roślin po wykopaniu z ziemi okazywały się zdrowe. Na starszych drzewach występuje silne zahamowanie wzrostu i obumieranie części korony po tej stronie, gdzie u nasady pędu występuje nekroza. Po ścięciu takiego porażonego klonu zauważone, że jego tkanki uległy nekrozie na głębokość 5 cm poza widocznym zasięgiem zgnilizny. Wykryto w nich P. cambivora.
 Fytoftoroza modrzewia Wywołują ją P. cactorum, P. citricola. U siewek liście zółną i brązowieją, korzenie brunatnieją. Tkanki u nasady pędu zmieniają barwę na brązową. U drzew kilkunastoletnich igły początkowo są jasnozielone, ale w drugim lub trzecim roku żółkną i brązowieją, drzewa zaś zamierają. U takich drzew korzenie są zbrunatniałe i zaczynają ulegać rozpadowi.
 Fytoftoroza lipy Wywołuje ją P. cactorum. Liście siewek żółkną i brązowieją. Na najniższych liściach pojawia się nekroza, zaczynająca się od ogonka liściowego i rozprzestrzeniająca się stopniowo na całą niemal blaszkę. Na drzewach kilku i kilkunastoletnich następuje porażenie podstawy pnia. Wskutek tego z szyjki korzeniowej zaczynają wyrastać żółtawe pędy. Na drzewach kilkunastoletnich żółkną liście, a kora u podstawy w jednym miejscu pnia brunatnieje. Pod korą czerwonobrunatna zgnilizna rozszerzająca się w górę pnia. Podobne objawy występują nu podstawy pnia  drzew kilkudziesięcioletnich. Drzewa takie rosną wolno i w końcu obumierają.
 Fytoftoroza olszy Wywołują ją P. alni, P. cactorum, P. cambivora, P. citricola. U kilkumiesięcznych siewek żółkną i zamierają liście na szczycie pędów. Najmłodsze korzenie brunatnieją. Na drzewach kilkuletnich i kilkunastoletnich żółkną i opadają liście, zaś u nasady pędu następuje zbrunatnienie tkanek i zaczynają wyrastać korzenie przybyszowe. U nasady pnia powstaje zgnilizna, a powyżej niej czarne i wilgotne plamy, często łączące się z sobą. Tkanki pod nimi są czerwonobrunatne, a wokół nich powstaje nekroza. Czasami na młodych pniach drzew kora podłużnie pęka, a z czarnych plam sączy się ciemnobrunatna ciecz. Liście opadłe z chorych drzew często mają czarne i nieregularne plamy. W początkowym okresie rozwoju choroby drzewa tworzą bardzo liczne szyszki, a ich liście są drobne i jasnozielone. W miarę rozwoju choroby następuje przerzedzenie korony, drzewo stopniowo traci liście, gałęzie i obumiera.
 Fytoftoroza sosny Wywołują ją P. cactorum, P. cinnamomi, P. citricola. Igły siewek najpierw żółkną a potem brązowieją, korzenie rozpadają się i siewki zamierają. U drzew kilkunastoletnich żółkną i brunatnieją igły, ale utrzymują się na drzewie przez kilka miesięcy. Rozpadają się młodsze korzenie.

You Can Cut the Cord, But You Can't Cut Out Ads
By Compulse Integrated Marketing 1503341978000
Special Advertising Content
Luckily for advertisers, the development of ad technology has kept pace with developments in viewing technology. Here's a quick look at how people are consuming their content and insights that are useful for businesses looking to reach these "cord-cutters."
At one point, it seemed as though streaming technologies would leave TV advertisers in the dust. If viewers can watch their shows through internet streaming, people thought, advertisers will be unable to reach them through TV commercials.
Cord cutting on the rise
In May of this year, a report from MoffettNathanson analyst Craig Moffett noted that the pay cable industry lost 762,000 subscribers in Q1 2017 while during the same period in 2016, only 141,000 subscribers were lost.
That makes for an annual decline rate of (-2.4%) and since 2013, a total of 6.5 million cord-cutter and "cord-never" watchers – people who became homeowners or renters and never signed up for a cable service in the first place. With sports and international programming increasingly offering viewing options for cord-cutters too, there's no reason to think the trend will do anything but accelerate.
Ads still served
Any video content delivered over the internet directly to a device without a cable or satellite company as an intermediary is considered Over the Top content – also called OTT. It can be watched via a Smart TV, a Roku, a tablet or any number of other devices.
Content publishers have created apps to deliver content on these devices, and it's through these apps that ads are served. Before the viewer can watch the TV show or film they've selected, they have to sit through an ad spot generally between 15 and 30-seconds in length.
Viewers might have escaped multi-minute commercial breaks, but an ad-free experience is still elusive.
What it means for advertisers
Right now, the primary method for targeting OTT ads is geography, which is great for smaller businesses with geographically specific target markets. Demographically speaking, according to a 2015 report by Pew Research Center, "65% of those ages 18 to 29 have cable or satellite service at home, compared with 73% of adults ages 30 to 49 and 83% of those 50 or older." So while the viewer demographic for OTT ads skews younger, rapid adoption of streaming services means you can reach consumers in other age brackets though OTT ads too.
In terms of income, the report found that "63% of homes with annual incomes under $20,000 have either cable or satellite service, compared with 86% of households whose annual income exceeds $75,000" and that "in homes whose annual incomes are $20,000 or below, 21% have cut the cord, while 14% of households above that income threshold have cut the cord."
That means that if your message is intended for price-conscious consumers, OTT ads could be a smart addition to your digital marketing mix.

We help our clients run digital marketing campaigns that support their business goals and sustain growth. We also help with SEO, website design and social media marketing.

Karl Berger, Jason Kao Hwang: Conjure
Brian Morton
The sage of Woodstock arranged this get-together at his home studio. Jason Kao Hwang drove up on a March day in 2014 and they laid down eight beautiful improvised tracks. If five years seems a long time to get a record out, these men don't hurry. Berger has been a veteran of creative music for as long as anyone can remember, though without the attention he deserves. He played, you might remember, on John McLaughlin's Where Fortune Smiles. That was in 1971 and Berger had been making records (as Karlhanns Berger) since 1963.
So there's a vast amount of experience embedded in these tracks. They bear the vague, unfunky titles you might expect from music of this type, but they're far from diffuse or impressionistic.
What's striking about the interplay of piano and violin, or vibes and viola, on these cuts is how freshly naturalistic they sound, as if channelling the landscapes and sounds of upstate New York, which Berger must know like the back of his own gnarly hands.
Berger's 84 this year, but sounding like a colt on piano pieces like Prophecy, which is the first piano/violin track or the long Water Finds Water, where he switches to vibraphone and Hwang to his larger instrument. Leroy Jenkins and Jessica Pavone have also experimented with the viola in improvised settings, but Hwang really knows how to make its relatively weak projection – it's an instrument that ought to be louder than it's capable of, for some odd reason – work for him rather than as a disadvantage. It is as if it reflects Hwang's more private, inner thoughts, or the moments when he's suspended in nature rather than communicating with another. And that's another of the attractive things about Conjure, the feeling that these wise men don't feel the need to chatter and indulge in Alone Together exchanges (a personal bugbear, I confess).
If it's philosophical music, it's far from dull music. There's life, laughter, landscape and an affirmative lightness that is hard to resist.

Why Instagram Is Heartbroken Over Chris Santos' Tribute To Taylor Hawkins
By Hannah Beach/Updated: March 31, 2022 11:41 am EST
Music fans across the country were devastated to hear of Taylor Hawkins' passing. Hawkins played the drums for Foo Fighters for 25 years, says CNN, in addition to releasing some solo projects. He had three children with his wife, Alison (via The Sun) and was only 50 years old.
While the band was in Colombia, mid-tour, Hawkins was discovered unresponsive in his hotel room. According to the New York Post, authorities are not yet certain what caused Hawkins' death. Toxicology tests found 10 psychoactive substances in his system, but other reports say he died from cardiovascular collapse.
On March 25, within hours of the initial report, Foo Fighters posted on Twitter. The band wrote, "The Foo Fighters family is devastated by the tragic and untimely loss of our beloved Taylor Hawkins. His musical spirit and infectious laughter will live on with all of us forever." Nearly 158,000 people retweeted the message. And, on Instagram, Chris Santos weighed in.
Chris Santos took his time with Taylor Hawkins for granted
We know Chris Santos best from his role as a judge on "Chopped," but he's also a big fan of music. He spent his late teens playing the drums, finally releasing his own album in 2016. Following news of Taylor Hawkins' death, Santos posted about the loss on Instagram.
"I don't even know what to say," he wrote in the caption. "This man was so talented and I had a moment recently where I should have paid attention to just how talented he was. I will regret it forever that I took him –- and that moment -– for granted. I'm truly heartbroken for his family and his friends." While Santos didn't elaborate on this moment, he shared an image of himself with Hawkins' Foo Fighters bandmate, Dave Grohl, just months ago.
After Santos shared his personal connection to the rockstar, fans grieved in the comments with one person saying, "What a loss... He was so incredibly talented... RIP." Another added, "Grateful to have seen him perform on stage. Gifted, humorous, and brilliant." And a third said, "What a tremendous loss for all of those close to him. Prayers for his family, friends, and bandmates."

> Exposure of pregnant women to certain phenols may disrupt the growth of boys during foetal development and the first years of life
Exposure of pregnant women to certain phenols may disrupt the growth of boys during foetal development and the first years of life
Press release | 02 Sep 2014 - 10h43 | By INSERM PRESS OFFICE
A research consortium bringing together teams from Inserm, the Nancy and Poitiers University Hospitals, and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC, Atlanta, USA), and coordinated by the Inserm and University of Grenoble Environmental Epidemiology team (Unit 823), has just published an epidemiological study indicating that exposure to certain phenols during pregnancy, especially parabens and triclosan, may disrupt growth of boys during foetal growth and the first years of life. Bisphenol A was not associated with any definite modification in growth. These results are published in this month's issue of the journal Epidemiology, September 2014.
Pregnant women are exposed to several compounds that are widely produced and abundant in our environment. This is the case for parabens (used as preservatives in cosmetics and healthcare products), triclosan (an antibacterial agent and pesticide found in some toothpastes and soaps), benzophenone-3 (used in sun protection products as a UV filter), dichlorophenols (the precursors of which are used in the manufacture of indoor deodorisers), and bisphenol A (the uses of which include manufacture of polycarbonate-based plastics (plastic bottles, CD cases, etc.) and epoxy resins (lining of food cans, dental amalgams) . These compounds belong to the phenol family, and are endocrine disruptors.[1] Experimental studies carried out in vitro and on animals have indicated that these compounds interact with the hormone systems involved in growth and weight gain.
The study was based on 520 boys from the EDEN mother-child cohort established by Inserm, and supported specifically for the present project by ANSES (French Agency for Food, Environmental and Occupational Health Safety).
Pregnant women participating in this cohort were recruited in the Nancy and Poitiers University Hospitals between 2003 and 2006, prior to the present regulations concerning bisphenol A. Growth of each child was assessed by ultrasonography during pregnancy, and by measuring weight and length/height from birth to the age of 3 years. A urine sample taken during pregnancy allowed measurement of biomarkers for exposure to phenols in the CDC Atlanta Environmental Health Laboratory for US biosurveillance programmes.
Results obtained by Rémy Slama, Claire Philippat and colleagues show that over 95% of the pregnant women were exposed to these substances, and that maternal exposure to some phenols may disrupt the growth of boys. More specifically, the researchers showed a negative correlation between triclosan levels and growth parameters measured at the ultrasound examination in the third trimester of pregnancy, and that parabens were associated with increased weight at birth and at three years.
It is known that accelerated growth in the first years of life may increase the risk of obesity in later childhood. The study did not identify any clear link between urinary concentrations of other phenols and ante- and postnatal growth of boys. Because the urinary concentration of bisphenol A varies widely, it was not quantified accurately in the present study, which relied on a single urine sample for each woman.
For the researchers, "this is the first study concerning these environmental contaminants based on growth data collected during pregnancy, at birth, and up to the age of three years. Previous studies were focused on just one of these periods, and were usually restricted to the study of bisphenol A, without including other phenols.
The research teams will now try to repeat these results for a new couple-child cohort (the SEPAGES cohort), for which numerous urine samples will be collected from each participant (mother and newborn) during pregnancy and the child's first few years of life. This approach will make it possible to reduce errors in exposure measurement, and to identify the potential periods of greatest influence of phenols on the growth of children during childhood. Girls, whose sensitivity to phenols may differ from that of boys, will also be considered in this new couple-child cohort.
[1]The use of bisphenol A in packaging for foods for infants and young children was banned in 2013. This ban is due to be applied to all food packaging from 1 January 2015.

Race for Life, Harrogate, May 2008.
Almost 3,000 women gathered at Harrogate's Great Yorkshire Showground in May 2008, in a bid to help fight cancer.
The Race for Life saw women of all ages from across the district join at the starting line of the 5km route, to raise money for Cancer Research UK.
Team 'Chez' at Race for Life, Harrogate, May 2008.
But the weather was not on the runners' side with constant rainfall and soggy conditions making for a wet and muddy event.
Across the UK the event had attracted over 750,000 runners, all taking part in other locally-organised races.
In Harrogate, the event looked to raise some £200,000 for the charity.
Many had participated as part of a team or alongside friends and family members who were all running in memory of a loved one who had lost their battle to cancer.
Race for Life organiser, Andy Wilson, said he was pleased and impressed with the turnout given the adverse weather conditions.
This year Race for Life's 'Pretty Muddy' 5km obstacle course will take place on July 14 on The Stray.
In May 2008, Harrogate's then second-largest conference announced that it would move to Manchester after visitors complained of poor transport links and lack of accommodation in the town.
TheCIPD annual conference attracted 5,000 visitors from the UK at the time and is still today the largest HR event in the country.
It was in May 1998 that Harrogate's NHS Trust announced it had sold the town's general hospital site to Crest Homes for redevelopment into 100 properties.
The 7.25 acres became available the following year following the transfer of services to the Trust's current District hospital, which was part of its £40million centralisation plan.
A property developer made a £1.5million profit on the sale of Harrogate's bus station in May 1988.
The Leeds-based company, Parkdale Holdings, bought the town centre site from the National Bus Company in 1987 and sold it to Landbroke City and Country Land Company for £2.475million, giving a pre-tax profit of £1.5m.


Rajasthan Yoga & Meditation Tour Package – 12 Nights / 13 Days Trip: – Getting the peace of mind is more important than anything else in the world. So, get make a trip that covers places like Delhi, Haridwar, Rishikesh, Agra, Fatehpur Sikri, Abhaneri, and Jaipur. The total days for the package are about 13 days/12 nights.
I loved the morning sessions I took part in here, such a good way to start the day. Swamiji is a great teacher, very inspiring and encouraging.
I had never taken part in a meditation practice, only ever on my own. The things I've learnt here are invaluable, simple reasons as to why we use particular techniques and the benefits of different asanas. The whole class flows easily with meditation, mantras and different asanas used each morning I went. Only wish I could come back to learn and practice more.
I highly reccommend this centre,great foundation to start my journey on meditation and yoga. Only a 5 minute walk from the center of the town. I did the 3 day session and was very happy with everything. I will be back.
my partner and me, visited 3 morning the yogalessons. it was a friendly and trustful atmosphere from the first moment. we didn't have many experience before and it was a great introduction in this field. i would highly recommend the place.

Q: Box2D collision callback I have two Bodies in my game that I have declared as follows:
b2Body* actor;
b2Body* brick;

Both of them are b2PolygonShape bodies. And there fixture declaration is as follows:
b2FixtureDef actorFixture;
b2FixtureDef brickFixture;

Now I am trying to get the information of collision and I want to confirm whether both of them collided or not. I thought I can do It by comparing the fixtures of two bodies by GetFixture() with actorFixture and brickFixture in BeginContact but i found out that it cannot be done this way! I am sorry if my question is stupid but I am learning collision detection and finding it really tough. I read the articles on it, but  still my logic is not clear. Can you help me in letting me know How can I achieve what I have mentioned above?
In the beginContact I want something like this:
void Callback::BeginContact(b2Contact* contact)
{
std::cout << "Begin Contact" << std::endl;
b2Body* bodyA = contact->GetFixtureA()->GetBody();
b2Body* bodyB = contact->GetFixtureB()->GetBody();

if((bodyA==actorFixture||bodyB==brickFixture)
        &&   (bodyA==brickFixture||bodyB=actorFixture))
    score++

}

A: You are comparing a body with fixture which will never be equal.
You should compare the given body pointers with the actor and brick body pointers :
if((bodyA==actor && bodyB==brick)
        ||   (bodyA==brick&& bodyB=actor))
    score++
}

Note that I also changed the condition so either body A equals actor body AND body B equals brick body OR the other way around. Otherwise the condition will never be fulfilled since body A (or body B) cannot be an actor body and a brick body at once

It's hard to believe we've just clocked the end of another financial year. It really doesn't seem that long ago we just completed our last round of tax returns! I hope you managed to make the most of your deductions and income.
And it's been a big year too for what was formerly known as the financial planning industry. 2016 is the year the Government began to view us as a profession… although, you may agree that that still needs a bit of work.
Now is the time where many advisers will have to choose whether or not they will earn the right to continue as planners. The proper qualifications will be needed and recognised, ongoing training and accountability measures will be put into place, and all are aimed at protecting the consumer. That's a win, right?
Building consumer trust has always been the end game and following in it's wake, better recognition and respect for professional planners.
We've also managed to have enshrined the terms Financial Planner and Financial Adviser which will make it easier for the public to find professionals to provide them with advice. From 1 January, 2019, anyone claiming to be a financial planner without the qualifications to do so, will be breaking the law, so you're less likely to end up in the wrong hands. Another win!
So, we're pretty sure you've had a big financial year, and we hope you're set for an even more cracking year ahead.
It's time to take a load off and enjoy the weekend.

Q: How to write test cases in enzyme and jest for a component using useDropZone? How to write test case for a component like this? Simulation of onChange or onClick function does not add any files.
import React from 'react';
import {useDropzone} from 'react-dropzone';

function Basic(props) {
  const {acceptedFiles, getRootProps, getInputProps} = useDropzone();

  const files = acceptedFiles.map(file => (

      {file.path} - {file.size} bytes

  ));

  return (

        <input data-testid="dropInput" {...getInputProps()} />

Drag 'n' drop some files here, or click to select files

Files

{files}

  );
}

A: Testing the behavior of the component. There is an example about testing at the bottom of the official doc. The react-testing-library is recommended to use for react-dropzone.
You can create mock files and simulate the drop event on the drop zone. Then assert what does the component render.
E.g.
index.tsx:
import React from 'react';
import { useDropzone, FileWithPath } from 'react-dropzone';

export function Basic(props) {
  const { acceptedFiles, getRootProps, getInputProps } = useDropzone();

  const files = acceptedFiles.map((file: FileWithPath) => (

      {file.path} - {file.size} bytes

  ));

  return (

        <input {...getInputProps()} />

Drag 'n' drop some files here, or click to select files

Files

{files}

  );
}

index.test.tsx:
import { act, fireEvent, waitFor, render } from '@testing-library/react';
import React from 'react';
import { Basic } from './';

async function flushPromises(rerender, ui) {
  await act(() => waitFor(() => rerender(ui)));
}

function dispatchEvt(node, type, data) {
  const event = new Event(type, { bubbles: true });
  Object.assign(event, data);
  fireEvent(node, event);
}

function mockData(files) {
  return {
    dataTransfer: {
      files,
      items: files.map((file) => ({
        kind: 'file',
        type: file.type,
        getAsFile: () => file,
      })),
      types: ['Files'],
    },
  };
}

describe('71585833', () => {
  test('should pass', async () => {
    const file = new File([JSON.stringify({ ping: true })], 'ping.json', { type: 'application/json' });
    const data = mockData([file]);
    const { container, rerender } = render(<Basic />);
    const dropzone = container.querySelector('div');
    dispatchEvt(dropzone, 'drop', data);
    await flushPromises(rerender, <Basic />);

    expect(container.querySelectorAll('li')).toHaveLength(1);
    expect(container.querySelectorAll('li')[0].textContent).toEqual('ping.json - 13 bytes');
  });

Vanessa Vadim comes from movie royalty, being the daughter of legendary Hollywood actress Jane Fonda and French filmmaker Roger Vadim. She is a documentary filmmaker and an eco-advice columnist for several websites, an interest she has inherited from her mother. Vadim is married to Paul Van Waggoner and has two children from two different men from her past. Vadim has struggled hard to escape her famous mother's long shadow and has succeeded in a big way.

Even though Jane Fonda is 80 years old, her fans can't seem to get enough of her. Scores of people still think about this legendary Hollywood actress and wonder how she has accomplished so much throughout her longstanding film career. With age, Jane Fonda has only become more loved, more enigmatic, and more alluring for both her fans and Hollywood watchers.
A New Documentary on Jane Fonda
Now, there is a new documentary on Fonda called Jane Fonda in Five Acts that details her professional and personal life. It also follows her social activism that made her a controversial but much-loved figure in Hollywood. The documentary, which is directed and produced by Susan Lacy, shows the viewers exactly why Jane Fonda is considered an icon even today.
Since the news of the documentary, people have become curious to know more about Jane Fonda's daughter, Vanessa Vadim. Vanessa Vadim was born to Fonda from her marriage to the French film director Roger Vadim and was named after the actress and activist Vanessa Redgrave. Here are a few details from Vanessa Vadim's wiki.
Her Family Is Famous
Born on September 28, 1968, in Paris, France, to Jane Fonda and Roger Vadim, Vanessa Vadim's age is 50. She has a half-brother named Troy Garity, and her cousins are Bridget Fonda and Justin Fonda. She has three siblings from her father's side, namely Nathalie Vadim, Christian Vadim, and Vania Plemiannikov.
Who Is Vanessa Vadim Married To?
Vanessa Vadim has been married to Paul Van Waggoner since June 12, 2010. She has two children of her own from two different men; a son Malcolm, born in 1999, and a daughter Viva, born in November 2002. Vanessa Vadim's wedding to Waggoner was a "simple, lovely and spiritual" ceremony and was held in St. Tropez, France. Vadim was previously married to Mark Arnett, a producer known for The Quilts of Gee's Bend and Do Not Go Gently.
She's a Columnist & Documentary Maker
Currently, Vadim is an ecological advice columnist for the "Mother Nature Network" website. After completing her high school studies, Vadim studied at Brown University in Providence, Rhode Island, where she completed her graduation.
Given that both her parents worked in the film industry, it was no surprise that Vadim chose a career in the arts. Vadim has dabbled in documentary making as well, and to date she has worked on two of them. She worked as a crew member on Blue is Beautiful in 1999 and as a director, producer, editor, and cinematographer on The Quilts of Gee's Bend in 2002.
She also writes as an eco-advice columnist for the website TheDailyBeast. Vadim's love and concern for nature and environmental issues have come from her mother Jane Fonda, who has fought many a battle for the protection of our environment in her time.
She Has Had Her Troubled Days
Vadim hasn't always been such a prim and settled person in her life. In fact, in her early 20s, she was quite a wild child! When she was 21 years old, she was arrested in October 1989 in New York City on charges of obstructing government administration and wandering around for the purpose of purchasing drugs and creating disorderly conduct.
Vadim Is a Gifted Individual in Her Own Right
While Vadim's maternal family is quite famous, she herself prefers to stay away from the limelight. She keeps a low profile and stays busy with her work and family. It is tough to escape the shadow of her famous mother, but Vanessa Vadim has been able to carve out a place for herself by her own efforts. And we commend her for it!


The era of ubiquitous mobile ID will soon be upon us. People shop, talk, trade, and send/receive payments through mobile devices 24/7, and a crucial element that helped make this possible is identity verification.
Although people walk around with these mini computers that contain more compute power than what NASA used during the Apollo mission, they still carry a physical ID document to gain access to bars, flights, government facilities, among other things.
While the future points to mobile, there are numerous obstacles before achieving an omnipresent mobile future. The identity systems of today have a long history, widespread adoption, and regulatory frameworks that enable official use. Changing to a new infrastructure for identity is not only a challenge technologically, but it also presents legal, privacy, societal, and commercial challenges.
To achieve a broader, more accurate analysis of person's identity, current best practice is to use multiple data points; corroboration of data in different data sets delivers an expanded view of identity verification that is better able to achieve consensus. Through the use of an extensive ecosystem of data suppliers and technologies, rule sets for identity matches have more options for customization therefore better optimized for different risk strategies.
Mobile Network Operators (MNOs) currently have information about mobile users, such as name, mobile number, address, along with device information, geolocation, usage and billing data. Data from MNOs provide another valuable layer of identity intelligence. Relying on a single data source is rife with potential trouble; systems with one data source have one point of failure, corrupted data can't be offset and varying data sets can't be analyzed and optimized for maximum insight and performance.
However, in conjunction with other data sets, MNO data offers enhanced coverage and convenience for identity matching and fraud prevention.
Consider the requirements for Strong Customer Authentication (SCA) coming to Europe in September, 2019. It demands that certain transactions (payments or account access) meet specific authentication requirements. While effective authentication is a powerful method to prevent fraud and secure accounts, it also requires additional steps to be performed by the user.
With an average of 25 accounts per person that require passwords, it's a never-ending cycle of remembering and resetting passwords. Biometrics promises to offer a frictionless way to authenticate mobile users quickly, conveniently and with ease. In fact, 86 percent of consumers are interested in using biometrics to verify their identity or to make payments.
While Mobile ID is in its infancy and we're just scratching the surface of its potential, identity frameworks to extend its use are much more developed. After all, what we are talking about is digital identity (or eID), which already has some level of legal acceptance in many jurisdictions around the world.
Estonia already has an evolved eID system in place, allowing citizens to easily authenticate themselves for online services without paper documentation or a physical interaction. In Europe eIDAS, a set of clear, cross-border electronic identity requirements is coming in September 29, 2018. The Australian government is also setting up the requirements for a new eID framework that will adapt and streamline the way digital transactions and services are handled.
Once a government has an authorized eID system in place, commercial interests can use the same framework to ensure compliance with KYC laws, mitigate risk, optimize performance and improve the customer experience. The same factors that make eID desirable for governments apply to businesses operating online.
Consider a 2016 report by Australia Post and The Boston Consulting Group (BCG), which considered economic opportunities of the Australian digital identity ecosystem. They calculated the "economic value of an accepted digital identity" in Australia is AU$11 billion a year. All things being equal, this would extrapolate to annual numbers of $112.8 billion in the US and €150 billion in the EU.
Another market that can see dramatic effects from Mobile ID adoption is travel. The Known Traveler is a World Economic Forum (WEF) proposal for digital identity systems that use advanced technology, such as biometrics, and advanced digital technologies, to expedite cross-border travel. Already e-tickets are an easy and secure way of booking flight tickets and these can be saved directly on a mobile. Adding identity to the device along with associated permissions — a mobile passport — would go a far way to expedite and secure the system.
Of course, any time when trying to predict the future there are lots of questions and considerations. How will these systems integrate with existing protocols and new advances? What new standards will come about and what will they cover? What will different countries do and what regulations will come into force?
There are deep concerns about security, privacy, permissions and control of access. Mobile ID technology is vital to help ensure the highest levels of security and privacy protection are adopted.
Existing identity systems have worked for over a hundred years and have proven stability, functionality and usability within jurisdictions. However, as the world becomes increasingly global, better cross-border identity systems are needed, enabling better security, more commerce and expanded trust interactions.
As effective identity system has such wide impact on individual lives and societal functions, rolling out new systems needs careful planning, testing and implementation. We can't expect physical ID documents to disappear anytime soon.
But the advantages of mobile ID are undeniable. Having a quicker, easier, and more secure and seamless way to identify and verify someone is beneficial to consumers, businesses and governments alike. As with the integration of other technologies into mobile devices, mobile ID has the aura of inevitableness around it.

No 'achhe din' for small businesses in India

Indian companies are in the doldrums, but it is the smaller businesses that are suffering the most
Indian companies are in the doldrums, but it is the smaller businesses that are suffering the most. For most firms, operating profits during the first quarter of the current fiscal year have not only shrunk, but have contracted at a more rapid pace than a year ago. So much for "achhe din".
In any downturn, smaller businesses suffer the most. They typically don't have huge piles of cash lying around or capital assets to pawn and find it more difficult to raise money. The current economic slowdown is no different. The tables here provide ample proof. The irony is that the firms are in such bad shape at a time when the economy is supposed to be growing 7%.
Among listed Indian firms, the smaller companies in terms of sales have been shellacked the most. They have been the worst and the earliest hit. Sales growth for firms whose quarterly revenues are less than ₹ 25 crore started falling two years ago. For those companies which fall in the ₹ 500 crore and above bracket, sales growth has fallen, but is still in the positive territory. In the June 2015 quarter, it's the grouping of smallest firms which has seen the sharpest decline in sales—of 33.7%.
The story is the same when comparing other yardsticks as well. Take operating profit growth. For the bigger set of firms, operating profit is still growing, even if the pace has come off from the same quarter the previous year. But for all firm groupings with quarterly sales of less than ₹ 500 crore, operating profits have fallen. For the two smallest brackets, operating profits have fallen for three straight June quarters now.
The size of the firms seems to also affect their ability to pay their loans at a time when lending rates haven't really fallen much despite an accommodative monetary policy. Interest coverage ratios are lower, the smaller the size of the firm. The largest set of firms has an interest coverage ratio of 3.5 times, while those whose quarterly sales are less than ₹ 25 crore are barely earning enough to meet their interest expenses.
If this is the state of affairs among listed firms, then it is very likely that things would be worse for millions of unlisted firms most of whom would fall in the smallest sales category. Not only is the pain of the downturn persisting, it has gotten worse than last year for many firms. And, of course, it hits the smallest firms the most.

We use our experience as professional accountants, business professionals, and technology experts, coupled with modern business systems, to provide personalized solutions that support your business needs.
Cordia Partners is known for our ability to listen carefully and present the most cost effective and appropriate solutions. We value persistence, loyalty, and quality of service. We are problem solvers; we are business professionals; and we are technical consultants. Our clients have come to Cordia because of our integrity, breadth of knowledge, and commitment to always do what is right.
We brought in Cordia to help us sort through audit findings and implement a more streamlined accounting system that would save us time and money while emphasizing transparency to executive management and the board of directors. That was over six years ago and we've not had a single accounting issue since. Cordia isn't a vendor, they're a strategic partner.
Cordia provided interim resources to help us reconcile complex accounts through Deltek GCS Premier. Cordia plays an integral role in providing timely accurate financial information to Chamber management and the board of directors. They have significantly improved internal controls, efficiencies and the overall effectiveness of the Chambers' finance function.
Cordia assumed responsibility for all financial management functions at our company last year and quickly became a well-integrated and genuinely essential member of my core team. Revenue is up, expenses are down, cash management has improved, relationships with outside auditors and similar are likewise better. Self-starting, responsive, and extremely competent, I would not want to do without Cordia. I am hooked!
Anyone who has launched a new business or enterprise knows how fragile the first year can be. The people you surround yourself with in the early months have to share your vision, have your trust , know their business and be there during the inevitable tough times. One less thing to worry about during a startup year is a big deal. But more than that, a trusted advisor with real depth, smarts and resources makes all the difference. There aren't many companies we would so publicly acknowledge. The Cordia team launched the Southwest Business Improvement District with us. It would not have happened without them.
Cordia Partners was an outstanding partner to Employment Enterprises, Inc. We were struggling with processes and systems that were keeping us from growing our business above the $50 million revenue mark. Cordia's team of professionals built our accounting and financial foundation, which has grown to over $90 million. Their expertise and strategic planning were vital contributing factors to helping us achieve our growth plans.
Lovey Hammel, President, Employment Enterprises, Inc.
On behalf of the Board of Directors, please accept our heartfelt appreciation for your excellent work on the Chamber's 2011 budget. Your expert guidance was invaluable to our leadership team and me as we worked through all the assumptions for next year's plan.
Cordia Partners continues to be an integral partner to Applied Fundamentals Consulting, LLC (AFC). Shortly after the formation of AFC, Cordia established our accounting practices and standards to ensure DCAA Compliance and assisted us in creating a budget model that reduced costs and increased overall profitability. Without a doubt, Traci and her team have been instrumental to our success.
Cordia provided interim resources to help us reconcile complex accounts through Deltek GCS Premier. Their team was efficient, knowledgeable, and worked well with our staff.
One of the major factors in the success of any startup company is making good decisions on where to focus limited resources. OpenWhere made a great decision in August 2013 to outsource our accounting and finance requirements to Cordia Partners. Now – almost 3 years later – OpenWhere continues to look to Cordia as our authoritative resource to support the successful execution of our business. We expect this valued partnership to continue to grow as the needs of the business change. We sincerely appreciate the professionalism and untiring support we receive from each member of the Cordia Team.
Thank you from the OpenWhere Executive Team!
Brian O'Toole (CEO) and Chris Glanzmann (COO), OpenWhere Inc.
Using Cordia is one of the best business decisions we ever made. We moved from a big name accounting firm who looked great on paper, but consistently assigned to us inexperienced accountants who frustrated us with errors and delays. We clearly did not matter to them and they cost us more time than they saved us. Cordia could not have been more different. Cordia provides the highest quality service with a personal touch. We now have excellent controls, reliable financial reporting, painless audits, effective staff, and a happy board. For a growing association like ours, Cordia has been nothing short of fantastic.

		Lorem Ipsum is simply dummy text of the printing and typesetting industry. Lorem Ipsum has been the industry's standard dummy text ever since the 1500s, when an unknown printer took a galley of type and scrambled it to make a type specimen book. It has survived not only five centuries, but also the leap into electronic typesetting, remaining essentially unchanged. It was popularised in the 1960s with the release of Letraset sheets containing Lorem Ipsum passages, and more recently with desktop publishing software like Aldus PageMaker including versions of Lorem Ipsum.

Why do we use it?
It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).

Where does it come from?
Contrary to popular belief, Lorem Ipsum is not simply random text. It has roots in a piece of classical Latin literature from 45 BC, making it over 2000 years old. Richard McClintock, a Latin professor at Hampden-Sydney College in Virginia, looked up one of the more obscure Latin words, consectetur, from a Lorem Ipsum passage, and going through the cites of the word in classical literature, discovered the undoubtable source. Lorem Ipsum comes from sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 of "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" (The Extremes of Good and Evil) by Cicero, written in 45 BC. This book is a treatise on the theory of ethics, very popular during the Renaissance. The first line of Lorem Ipsum, "Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet..", comes from a line in section 1.10.32.

The standard chunk of Lorem Ipsum used since the 1500s is reproduced below for those interested. Sections 1.10.32 and 1.10.33 from "de Finibus Bonorum et Malorum" by Cicero are also reproduced in their exact original form, accompanied by English versions from the 1914 translation by H. Rackham.

Where can I get some?
There are many variations of passages of Lorem Ipsum available, but the majority have suffered alteration in some form, by injected humour, or randomised words which don't look even slightly believable. If you are going to use a passage of Lorem Ipsum, you need to be sure there isn't anything embarrassing hidden in the middle of text. All the Lorem Ipsum generators on the Internet tend to repeat predefined chunks as necessary, making this the first true generator on the Internet. It uses a dictionary of over 200 Latin words, combined with a handful of model sentence structures, to generate Lorem Ipsum which looks reasonable. The generated Lorem Ipsum is therefore always free from repetition, injected humour, or non-

The slow-growing cactus reaches about twenty feet or more in its native habitat, producing many columnar stems that are usually un-branched. Its species name, senilis, comes from the Latin word meaning old man. As the name implies, it has grayish-white, distinctive, long, wooly hairs that look like a beard. The hairs cover the plant to protect it from scorching summer temperatures and to provide warmth in the winter. Its shaggy coat of hair conceals many tiny, sharp, yellow spines. In springtime, it produces two-inch-long, whitish-pink flowers that open at night. At maturity, following the blooms, the plant develops pinkish-red fruit that is covered with yellowish hair. Use it as an accent plant or in masses along with other cacti in rock gardens and raised planters. Use the old man cactus as a foundation plant against a white or colored wall. It is native to Guanajuato and Hidalgo in eastern Mexico.
It enjoys well-draining soil and full sun, but prefers light afternoon shade. Bright sunlight encourages the growth of hair. Provide minimal to moderate water in the hot, summer months and almost no water at all during the winter months. It is hardy to minus ten degrees Fahrenheit.
