After a disaster, it's important to help your merchant clients stay connected to the outside world. Business continuity is crucial in the wake of disasters, when communication is essential.
Nearly 8 in 10 (78 percent) of SMB retailers have not yet adopted EMV-ready systems according to a study that surveyed small businesses and their customers on EMV readiness.
When it comes to real marketing, many solutions providers fall short. This is typically because they either don't believe in the power of marketing or don't have the time and money to invest. In both cases, a big mistake is being made. Marketing, when done correctly, can have a significant effect on sales, producing an ROI that exponentially exceeds the initial investment.
The Retail Solutions Providers Association (RSPA) announced new resources for VARs providing EMV solutions to their clients: an EMV solutions grid and the Merchant FAQ tool.
Author and entrepreneur Michael Gerber will present a course for Retail Solutions Providers Association (RSPA) members this fall: The Dreaming Room.
RSPA is hosting a sales training course for its members with Kendra Lee of the KLA Group. The course was created in response to the huge demand following Lee's two sales training breakout sessions at RetailNOW 2015 last month.
Each month, Business Solutions reports news on business in the channel. This month in point of sale, payment processing and data collection news, Ingram Micro adds key injection services and creates a payments playbook, ZyXEL unveils a router-access point-printer combination, MMF POS introduces an illuminated cash drawer, Mercury launches its Security Pays education initiative, Moneris introduces mPOS payment devices, Honeywell unveils an iPhone sled, Sterling launches a lead generation website, and ScanSource adds its "As-A-Service Suite."
There is increasing conversation — and an increasing number of solutions — that support a recurring revenue or POS-as-a-Service business model. Interest in this model is growing, in part, because of the benefits it provides — for your cash flow, client retention, and even the value of your business.
The retail IT channel is evolving quickly — marketing is migrating to digital, workflows are leveraging mobile computing, and "green" initiatives, inspired by millennial consumers concerned with the environment, are becoming more common. The changing world of retail challenges VARs to deliver the right solutions to meet these new demands.
With your merchant IT clients competing to provide the best customer experience, you want to support their goals with the best solutions.

Logical and moral arguments have been made for the organizational importance of ethos or virtuousness, in addition to ethics and responsibility. Research evidence is beginning to provide, empirical support for such normative claims. This paper considers the relationship between ethics and ethos in contemporary organizations by summarizing emerging findings that link virtuousness and performance. The effect of virtue in organizations derives from its buffering and amplifying effects, both of which are described.

Stayed at this property a couple of days ago, on a break before returning home. The environment around the hotel is quite nice for all the people who appreciate "Green" and tranquility... Nothing spectacular regarding the building itself or the golf course. Stayed in a Deluxe Room, all rooms have access to a balcony so it's always nice to get some fresh air, the bedding is good and the room size is fine. One of the things that I appreciated the most about this stay was the TV service, let's be honest, hotels usually don't have very good tv service; but at this hotel, you have access to a huge number of channels from different countries so you have the chance to actually find something that you want to watch! The bar at -1 level is a nice and cozy place to wind down the evening... and the breakfast options were good the next morning, thanks also to the staff that were very willing. Overall nice stay, would gladly return!

From Our Editors
In the more than four decades since its founding in 1970, Care for Real has never been as busy as it's been in the years following the 2008 recession. More than 55,000 clients visited the Edgewater fixture in 2012, seeking assistance with their financial, health, housing, employment, or social-services needs. The entire operation is manned by just three full-time employees and a 200-strong team of volunteers.
Neighbors in need include families struggling with food insecurity and individuals who have lost their jobs; senior citizens and children under the age of 18 comprise more than half of the client base. Ongoing projects include the Clothes Closet, which provides gently used apparel free of charge to more than 1,300 clients each month, and the Food Pantry, which distributes nearly 60,000 pounds of rice, beans, bread, fresh produce, and other items each month to those in need, including more than 800 children.

Children's Health
Brain Cancer Common, Deadly in Teens, Young Adults
By Robert Preidt
HealthDay Reporter
WEDNESDAY, Feb. 24, 2016 (HealthDay News) -- Brain cancers are the most common cause of cancer deaths among teens and young adults, but the types of cancers that strike can vary widely as people age, a new report shows.
"For these individuals -- who are finishing school, pursuing their careers and starting and raising young families -- a brain tumor diagnosis is especially cruel and disruptive," said Elizabeth Wilson, president and CEO of the American Brain Tumor Association (ABTA).
"This report enables us for the first time to zero in on the types of tumors occurring at key [age] intervals over a 25-year time span, to help guide critical research investments and strategies for living with a brain tumor that reflect the patient's unique needs," Wilson said in an association news release.
The ABTA-funded report, which used data from 51 separate cancer registries that represented 99.9 percent of the U.S. population in the 15-to-39 age group, was published recently in the journal Neuro-Oncology.
While brain and central nervous system tumors were the most common type of cancer among people aged 15 to 19, the report also revealed how other types of cancer became more prevalent as people got older. Among those between the ages of 34 and 39, brain and central nervous system tumors were eclipsed by breast and thyroid cancer.
"What's interesting is the wide variability in the types of brain tumors diagnosed within this age group, which paints a much different picture than what we see in [older] adults or in pediatric patients," said report senior author Jill Barnholtz-Sloan, an associate professor at Case Western's Comprehensive Cancer Center in Cleveland.
"For example, the most common tumor types observed in adults are meningiomas and glioblastomas, but there is much more diversity in the common tumor types observed in the adolescent and young adult population," Barnholtz-Sloan said in the news release.
"You also clearly see a transition from predominantly nonmalignant and low-grade tumors to predominantly high-grade tumors with increasing age," she added.
Wilson agreed.
"When analyzing data in five-year age increments, researchers discovered that the adolescent and young adult population is not one group but rather several distinct groups that are impacted by very different tumor types as they move into adulthood," Wilson said.

thinking through music, sound and culture
Imagine that you're a bell pattern.
Your name is Timeline.
You were born somewhere in West Africa.
And you sound like this: 3 + 3 + 2.
That's eight counts long but unevenly divided into two threes and one two.
People like you because your unusual design makes you syncopated, endlessly interesting, and fun to hang out with.
In fact, as a kid you loved to play with dance drumming groups in the village where you grew up.
You hardly ever slept!
You were the little guy who repeated your high-pitched part insistently while the other musicians smiled and played their own angular patterns. Everything meshed together like a finely woven kente cloth that spun itself out and out and out–a communal musical loom.
Since traveling to the Americas centuries ago (itself a long story) your services have been in high demand in all kinds of music, far too numerous to track. But even today everyone wants a part of your designs, your energy, your rhythmic wonder.
You're a hit machine! Listen to yourself in some pop hits of the moment for instance:
In the guitar part in "Don't Let Me Down" by The Chainsmokers:
In the keyboard part in "This Is What You Came For" by Calvin Harris:
In the keyboard part in "Cheap Thrills" by Sia:
In the guitar part in "Treat You Better" by Shawn Mendes:
And with little variations (you're easily bored) in the keyboard part "I Took A Pill In Ibiza" by Mike Posner (Seeb remix):
Well done Timeline. You're a bell pattern who traveled far.
"Music–good music, great music–had a hard, irreducible purity to it. It might be bitter and despairing and pessimistic, but it could never be cynical."
"What could be put up against the noise of time? Only that music which is inside ourselves–the music of our being–which is transformed by some into real music."
-Julian Barnes, The Noise of Time, p. 135.
• An article about teaching electronic music making in schools.
"They're definitely open to learning this way. They seem to show a bit more resilience rather than instantly getting fed up, feeling like they're not musical or talented. It's proving that you can teach creativity without requiring the skills of years of piano lessons and they're making something cool."
• A discussion about treatments for tinnitus.
"It's basically a contrast effect induced by filtering the frequency of your tinnitus from the music or sound you're listening to. This contrast effect is extremely precise and causes nerve cells to reconnect and adapt. The neurological reaction is not only leveraged to treat tinnitus but also stroke patients. Not every single piece of music or sound is suitable for the treatment, though. Audio books, for instance—and speech in general—has a very limited frequency range. Also, classical music can be difficult."
• An interview with a chef who makes musical analogies.
"Different cultures may use different media to express those base patterns—with different ingredients, for instance, depending on what's available. But they are, at heart, doing the exact same thing. They are fundamentally playing the same music. And if you can recognize that music, you'll blow people's minds with a paradox they can taste: the new and the familiar woven together in a strange loop."
• An article about the lessons of Bach's music.
"What Bach teaches us is the primacy of the musical material, the value of each note and each combination of notes, of each melodic line and each combination of melodic lines. The beauty of Bach inheres as much in the parts as in the whole. Every separate line possesses its own interest, vitality, and autonomy; every moment is capable of standing alone before music's and Bach's God. Thus what we learn from Bach is that every note, every player, every musical thought counts."
• An article about the music of Radiohead.
"Through their music, the band quickly became reliable purveyors of self-actualized individuality, and in exchange for that feeling, in order to make it more than what it was (a commodity), the band demanded you work for it."
• An article about the literature on music and violence.
"We resist evidence suggesting that music can cloud reason, stir rage, cause pain, even kill. Footnoted treatises on the dark side of music are unlikely to sell as well as the cheery pop-science books that tout music's ability to make us smarter, happier, and more productive. Yet they probably bring us closer to the true function of music in the evolution of human civilization."
"If you look too closely at the form, you'll miss the essence." – Rumi
I recently came across this quote by the 13th-century Persian poet Rumi and found it interesting enough to stop and consider it, turn it around things I know. At first it brought to mind architectural objects–I pictured New York skyscrapers, all parallel lines in glass and steel, and then the Rubik's cube, all colored patterns waiting to be reconfigured. But really it can applied to anything.
The Rumi quote came to mind again as I was listening to a recording of remarkable pianist playing some of his improvised pieces. Some the music's form I thought I understood: repetitive patterns, both hands moving in rapid parallel gestures up and down the keyboard, totally tonal (e.g. I, II, IV, V, and VI) chords, sustain pedal down, and a general sense of slow change over time. Yet it was the music's essence that captivated me: how the sounds could conjure what felt like a kind of aura or affect halo around themselves. This aura or affect halo was distinctive too: the essence of this music was a mix of urgency and melancholy–it was as if someone had pressed Play on a mental videotape of years of my memories from all over and now they were spinning around, overlapping. Listening to the music I felt as if I could feel its essence as a kind of mild delirium. I skipped around to some other pieces by the same musician and, like a those comic book exclamatory captions put it–baam!–the essence regenerated itself. Different pieces, same essential essence. How does music do this?
We often grapple with the relationship between musical form and its meaning. This relationship is slippery and difficult to explain because musical materials are not straightforward signifiers and their semantics always open-ended. Thus, over the years writers on music have offered many elegant observations relating to why discussing music is problematic. The depth and affective power of musical action are a function of how music acts as revelation, pointing towards experience "beyond the acoustic" (Robert Fink) without directly representing it. Music is "a language of sonic gesture" (Michel Chanan) "denied referential specificity and cognitive differentiation, but [is] profound in content" (Mikhail Bakhtin) and "a meaningful context which is not bound to a conceptual scheme" (Afred Schutz) that retains "a wide-open semiotic dimension" (Susan McClary and Robert Walser). Music is neither a universal language nor even a language; in its interpretive openness it is more like a sonic Rorschach test whose sense shifts depending on the values we bring to its forms. Music invites us into blurred experience which, like poetry, dissolves meaning and then reveals it on another plane (Anca Rosu). Perhaps this expressive multivalence is what makes music an imaginative Swiss Army Knife for understanding who we are. On a fundamental level it is a perceptual tool for engaging the hidden complexities of our worlds (Alva Noë): music virtually models "the urgencies and the passions of living" (David Burrows), our structures of feeling "as they are actively lived and felt" (Raymond Williams), and "offers a means of thinking relationships" (Richard Middleton). Think and be through me music says, by letting me engage you.
Anyway, back to Rumi. Rumi urges us not to get carried away with the form of a thing or experience lest we miss the essence of it. And so as I was listening to this piano music and thinking about Rumi's quote, two streams of inquiry merged into questions: What is the relationship between the music's form and the music's essence? Does the form produce the essence? Or is essence somehow– almost miraculously–self-generating? Is it possible that the most stimulatingly delirious aspects of musical experience have little or nothing to do with the sounds themselves? If so, where does essence come from? Where does it reside? These questions bring to mind something the percussionist Ken Hyder said in his memoir about drumming and shamanism: "It's not the music which creates the magic, it's the magic sitting over, under and all through the music."
"All 'realism' grounded in the confidence of art's 'fidelity' to reality is a conceit of certain technologies."
– Virginia Heffernan, Magic and Loss, p. 127.
Among the many pleasures of reading Virginia Heffernan's Magic and Loss, a wildly creative, energized, and forward thinking meditation on the Internet and online experience as a global collaborative artwork, is the author's observations on the life of music in the digital era. Heffernan notes how the MP3 format tricks the senses into believing "that one slice of data, skimmed off the top, can communicate a sound made in time and space by multiple bodies, collisions, textures, and movements" (194). In other words, digital music–like digital socializing generally (i.e. browsing Facebook)–is and isn't real. It's a hyper realistic representation of an experience we are already familiar with from the physical world. Heffernan shares with us her excitement back in the pre-streaming era when iTunes and iPods changed her listening life, enabling her to make playlists of her favorite MP3 tracks for private listening. Then she moves back to macro mode to reflect:
"The music that we hear on mobile devices is not music exactly, but a representation of music, in bits. Like other representational arts–realist painting, journalism, photography, film–MP3 music is an extremely persuasive and pleasurable illusion. The MP3 representation is so seductive, in fact, that we regularly take it for the thing itself. We're like the mythical birds said to have pecked in vain at Zeuxis's fifth century BC trompe l'oeil painting of grapes, with their illusion of volume" (181).
Elsewhere in the book I was struck by how Heffernan's thoughts on reading, writing, and technology might also apply to listening to music. If readers is "another name for moral agents in a world of symbols" (56), perhaps listeners are agents awash in an ocean of sound symbols? If reading is "reverie–and profoundly selfish. It's play and only play" (75), how too is music listening a cognitive-educational game? If the special pleasure of technology is a function of it being "in productive tension with other technology (83), maybe we can consider musical style in a similar dialectical fashion? And if digitizing written language "restores something…call it mentalness, proximity to pure thought" (85), what has digitizing done to music? How is music adapting to our era's "profound psychic shift" brought about by technologies like the iPhone? (117).

Oprah sits down with Pharrell Williams this weekend on OWN, but not before a dance with her special guest!
Here's my Happy dance, except I didn't have Pharrell there to join me!

It's Facebook question of the week time (clap, clap, clap)! It's been a few weeks since I've done a real video question and I have a special treat for you.
We're going to have a lesson in how to say my name.
That's right…you're going to learn how to say my name!
Well, I also sing a song. On video. I'm pretty sure it can be missed so you can fast forward to :40.
And now on with the show (if you can't see the video in your feed, click here and it'll magically appear)!
Jennifer Dooley asks,
I'm wondering if you could share your big DOs and DON'Ts for executives (not sure my CEO needs a blog). Also, do you have any good, bad, and the ugly in terms of executive social media examples you might be willing to share? I know it's asking a lot, but if you can share, I'd be sooo happy!
I answer the first part of the question in the video and also open it up to you to answer.
And, I promised to provide some links to the good, bad, and the ugly in terms of executive social media examples.
The Good: I am a big fan of what Tony Hsieh did with Twitter in 2008, as Zappos built their brand and prepped for the Amazon acquisition. There are some examples of other good use by executives in this blog post by Beth Kanter.
The Bad: While it's not an executive, exactly, I think the way the BP executives handled the entire oil spill, from their CEO saying he just wanted to go back to normal and get back on his yacht to the fake BP news Twitter account was poorly managed.
The Ugly: Kenneth Cole, hands down, gets this award from me. He fell flat on his face when he used the uprising in Egypt to promote his spring collection. Ugly, ugly news.
Now I leave it to you. What are the dos and don'ts for executives on social media? And what are some examples you can cite?

Great singing Gini. I don't think that I would try that, but it came off really well when you did it. It got a standing ovation in the office. Well I'm the only one here, but it was good.
@BestRoofer i can picture you standing in your office doing that, Joe. Wish we had video of that. And I haven't watched this video yet. I think I'll watch it with Shadow on the porch in just a bit.
Gini Gini Gini, what are we gonna do with you ?!!Gertrude fits you sooooo well 😀
I know you said it but now you have to work on the last name… get that in a song and we'll be impressed
Gini, you crack me up! I think I've got to follow your lead and do the same thing to get people pronouncing my last name correctly 🙂
oh, and in case you were wondering, my name is pronounced "Hank". the "Ken" is actually silent.
@KenMueller Just laughed out my scone!
@EricaAllison Does that mean your scone came outta your nose???
So loved that song! I think I pronounce your name correctly…I'll use it in a video and you can tell me for sure.
Re: your list in the post – all right on! I'm still amazed at Tony Heyward and his poor choice of words…even more at the fact that BP has made no visible efforts since then to put real PR into place that would build up the image of BP, rather than just let it be because, well, they can. Shame on them.
@KenMueller No, just crumbled out of my mouth. Thank goodness I'm alone. Not pretty.
"Embraced" from the top? Is that the word you were looking for?
@BestRoofer This made me LOL! Thanks for the standing O!
@KenMueller Did Shadow give me a standing O?
@bdorman264 I agree with you – the edict needs to come from the top down, but the executives aren't necessarily the ones who need to use it. I think too much access is detrimental to one's business. Even I'm learning that lesson, but I am addicted so I'm not going to be stopping.
@Yael Rozencwajg Gertrude?!?! You and johnfalchetto are killing me! LOL! Funny story for both of you. Growing up, I couldn't understand why they named me Gini instead of Ginny. It was really painful as a child. The first time I was in Paris, about 15 years ago, I was sitting in a sidewalk cafe. On the menu, under drinks was GINI. What?!? As you know, it's like our Sprite. And my mom spent two years abroad in France in college. She won't admit it, but I KNOW she named me after a soda pop in France.
@faybiz The last name isn't as painful for me if someone says it wrong. It's like Marlena Dietrich…Deetrick. I'll have to think about how to get it in a song!
@JodiEchakowitz Your last name is painful…as we've discussed! You should do the same, minus the singing. That was such an automatic thing I didn't even think about it.
@ginidietrich Much much worse things to be named after 🙂 @Yael Rozencwajg
@KenMueller The Ken is silent?! I'm glad I wasn't eating a scone when I read that!
@KenMueller I absolutely agree in small business the owner HAS to take an active role. And I'll answer to Gertie if you answer to Hank.
@DonnaLehman Totally agree, Donna! It has to suit their personality and they have to be good at it. Not unlike being the spokesperson, speaking on behalf of the company, or even doing employee roundtables. It's just another venue for communication.
@EricaAllison I think you do because I would have sent you a private note after your first video and corrected you if not. 🙂 Shame on BP is right!
@KenMueller hahahahahahaha!
@ginidietrich ah my wife had to come to grips with our last name.
I will now always say to myself "gertie diet-rich"
@ginidietrich @KenMueller And so the food discussion for today begins…
@ginidietrich No. He just licked himself.
I asked 10 questions, and you didn't pick any of them. I'm revolting GIN-e.
Sanctioned? Directed? Is that word your were searching for Jeannie?
@ryancox Revolt away. There is a long line of people in front of you. I'll get to you
@Sean McGinnis I hate you.
@CristerDelaCruz Noooo. I don't think that's what I wanted. I still can't think of it. And I agree with everything you've said here. Good thing, huh?! 🙂
I like company leaders participating in social media, but I also think it isn't just a do or don't participate. They absolutely should claim their account, preventing squatters from moving in. I also think it really depends upon the person to know if they have the tech skills, time, and understand social networking enough.
@ginidietrich I'm sorry, Gina, I can't hear you screaming from way over here on Dearborn….
@faybiz LMAO!!
@Sean McGinnis Hate. You.
@ginidietrich Nice song by the way Jenny.
@ginidietrich For a good time call 867-5309!
@Courtney Engle Totally agree. And if they participate, they must do so. None of this get out there, realize how hard it is, and then stop.
@Sean McGinnis Hate. You.
@DonnaLehman It depends is almost always the best answer. Love it! 🙂
Who are you again?
i was waiting for you to sing "Say My Name" THAT would have been hilarious! Anyway…executives do silly stuff all the time – for example they may "like" porn stars on Facebook. (ugh!)
Or..maybe they need their phone taken away from them if they have been drinking. One drunken (or angry) Tweet can destroy your business. It can and does happen.
On the plus side, there are great executives who understand how important community is, and do their best to encourage that. It must come from up top, as Gini pointed out.
@ginidietrich Yup, good thing. Funny, as I was watching the video, I was wracking (is that how you spell it?) my brain for words that might fit.
Hey Virginia… just trying to Train myself to sing it. Now, what was the question?
@CristerDelaCruz I guess that makes you a better person because my only reaction was to BURST out laughing when she did that. @ginidietrich
