The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (OECD) released a study in May reporting that there were 39 million unemployed young people among its member countries in 2013. This figure includes individuals between the ages of 16 and 29, and is 5 million more than the number of unemployed youth in 2008, during the immediate aftermath of the global financial crisis.
The study, titled OECD Skills Outlook 2015, states that the 2008 crisis led to record highs in youth unemployment that have remained virtually unchanged in recent years. Although the data included in the study does not extend beyond 2013, the OECD projects that figures concerning youth unemployment in 2014 will show little to no improvement.
The OECD uses the term "NEET" to describe young people who are "neither employed nor in education or training." The number of NEETs is highest in southern European countries such as Greece and Spain, where many of the most brutal austerity measures have been imposed. In these two countries, NEETs amount to just over 25 percent of young people. In the United States, Great Britain, and France, the figure is closer to one in every six youth, a proportion just above the 15 percent average among OECD member countries.
The report encompasses statistical data from thirty two industrialized nations, including Australia, Canada, Germany, Israel, Korea, Norway, Poland, Turkey, and many others.
Compared to average poverty rates taken for the whole population of various OECD member countries, youth in these countries face a disproportionately higher risk of poverty. Between the years 2007 to 2011, the 16-to-29 year-old age group also experienced the highest loss in income relative to all other age groups.
NEET youth are twice as likely to face unemployment as older "prime age" workers, and about half of unemployed youth have entirely given up on the prospect of finding a job. In the United States and Europe, more than 10 percent of young people were unemployed for around 15 months from 2007 to 2011. The proportion of NEETs that have been unemployed for so long that they have become "inactive" and are no longer seeking jobs is especially high in Australia, Israel, Korea, Mexico, Norway, Turkey, and the United States.
One major problem discussed in the report is that too many young people leave educational institutions unprepared for work, as evidenced by deficiencies in many basic math and reading skills. But even young people strong in these areas may still face barriers in the form of firms refusing to hire those with little to no direct labor market experience. And among young people who do successfully obtain a job, they may be working on temporary contracts or in a job that they are actually overqualified for. This effectively creates a series of hurdles between NEETs and traditional forms of employment.
Among young people who are actually employed, about 25 percent are working on a temporary contract, with temporary contracts more prevalent among young people than among prime-age workers as well. Although the study indicates that many young people working on temporary contracts eventually make a successful transition to more stable terms of employment, the results regarding the role of temporary contracts in facilitating this transition are mixed.
The OECD study shows that youth living in a remote or rural area or those coming from a "low socioeconomic background," or suffering from mental illness are particularly prone to becoming NEETs. These factors frequently interpenetrate, leading to situations where disadvantages become compounded.
Educational attainment and cognitive ability are two important indicators. Although educational backgrounds among NEETS vary from country to country, most NEETs have attained the equivalent of at least a high school or secondary school education. Unemployment rates are most pronounced among youth who have not attained this level of education, while young people with college degrees or more advanced education are generally less likely to be affected.
The study goes on to emphasize that youth who experience a period of unemployment are likely to encounter a "scarring effect" later in their careers. This can take the form of skills atrophying from disuse, dramatically lower earnings over the course of a lifetime, diminished self-confidence, or prejudice from potential employers.
These scarring effects are especially significant in contributing to youth poverty in countries where young adults tend to leave their parental homes relatively early in life, and there is evidence suggesting that, in the most severe cases, these effects can result in extreme marginalization, drug addiction, and criminal behavior.
The international prevalence of young people not in education or training among many of the world's most prosperous countries is a damning indictment of capitalism, which offers few prospects for young people seeking to establish the early foundations of their future. Seven years after the onset of the global financial crisis, this situation remains unchanged.
The OECD report comes amid several studies detailing the rash of joblessness still effecting youth more than seven years after the economic crisis that struck in 2008. A report released in May by Drexel University found that despite the so-called economic recovery, teenagers are still facing Depression Era-like labor market problems.
In the United States, the Obama administration repeatedly proclaims that the country is in the midst of an economic recovery, but this "recovery" has only served to benefit the financial elite, which has profited enormously from the increase in stock prices at the expense of wages and living standards for the vast majority of the population. In a similar vein, the high number of NEETs in Greece must be considered alongside of the ruinous austerity measures that have been imposed by the European Union, the European Central Bank, and the International Monetary Fund over the past half-decade. Last Friday's rally against austerity and the "no" vote during the recent referendum represent a popular repudiation of such conditions.

Hi there and happy Monday! No matter what you did on the weekend I hope it was a great one for you.
If you read my post on Friday you'll already know I got to spend another weekend at my parents'. Instead, this weekend was all about making the most of my time down there and enjoying the beauty of autumn. Here's how I spent another marvelous weekend in the coutryside.
Thanks to a cancelled appointment I was able to take the journey on Friday already leaving me with two full days at my parents'. Also thankfully the journey took me just three ad a half instead of five hours this time – a good start.
While Friday was spent mostly relaxing Saturday was more active. After sleeping in – I swear it's the too-soft mattresses' fault! – I met an old friend for a walk around the lake in the city. Memories of us having to run around that lake in school came up along with laughing about the unsuccessful search of shortcuts back then. And mind you, we're talking classmates trying to shorten an already short run ;).
Afterwards we stopped by our favourite cozy little café to enjoy the sunshine and catch up some more. Seeing her for the first time in months was amazing. While I've noticed that with some of my friends from back then catching up after such a long while can be a bit harder it's a breezer with her. No matter how much time has passed it never feels long with her and we don't need to explain every detail to immediately understand each other.
Back at my parents we had a friend pick us up to head out into the woods again. Not for a walk this time, however, but to hit the trails for a run. My mum just recently started running and as a family walk wasn't possible this weekend due to my dad's working schedule the 'family run' was born. Speed or distance didn't matter – it was all about listening to the sounds of the birds, giving a new definition to the word 'ankle biter' [those hills!] and enjoying nature. Okay, I might have sped up a little on the way back …
Truly trying make the most of the rare opportunity to see each other I spent the evening at my friend's house for a movie and some more catching up. Not just any movie, though, but Despicable Me – yes, I got to see it earlier than expected. The evening not only introduced me to fluffy unicorns but the cutest admirer to date: meet Oskar :). He curled up on my lap and reminded me of the cats we had when I was younger. Memories coming up all weekend …
While my dad had to work on Sunday my mum and I braved the gust for a bicycle tour on one of our favourite trails. Not without stopping at yet another lake to watch the swans and soaking up the sunshine. It's a tour we've been taking dozens of times already and keeps bringing back a plethora of childhood memories every time.
Though it had again been just two days I'll be forever amazed by the calming and soothing effect a weekend at the countryside and spent with my parents has on me. Worries [job- and elsewise] might not disappear but I can at least put them on the backburner for a while and make them seem more managable.
Knowing I won't be visiting my parents again any earlier than the end of October is a bit disheartening but I'm trying not to fret too much. Time will likely fly by faster than we know it so here's to making this week a marvelous one for now!
Happiness inducing today: Randomly getting to know some people on the train back and having a great conversation.
How often do you get to catch up with old friends [from school]? I wish it was more often for me but with my friends living all over Germany and us having different [class] schedules it's been a lot harder than I imagined.
Do you have any cats or dogs? What are they called?
What were some highlights from your weekend?

Making sense of the Money 2020 craziness – the Las Vegas 2018 editionTags: conferences, fintech, Money 2020
To each her own way of organizing for and experiencing Money 2020. I know some like to plan each day to the minute, making sure they are booked for meetings – no downtime shall be tolerated – and choose each of the sessions they will attend with great care. Others, and I have definitely been in this camp, like to wing it and let themselves be carried away by the ambient craziness.
I do like to meet at the venue, in so doing, aided by a pinch of serendipity and a splash of luck. No scheduled meetings for me. I have also not planned the sessions I wanted to attend ahead of the event, preferring the whim of the day to lead me. On this latter point, after having checked the agenda a few minutes ago I have decided to be more rigorous with my planning. Indeed, I was shocked, positively so, by the 18 topics at hand and the plethora of sessions for all four days. Have the Money 2020 organizers upped their game? I believe so given the number of very intriguing sessions I found while skimming through the entire agenda. Either that or I was not paying attention at all in 2017.
Without further ado, here is the short list of topics and sessions I will endeavor to attend – unless serendipity & luck force my attention elsewhere – from October 21 til October 24:
- General Session Keynotes:
- "The future of banking, fintech or tech fin", moderated by Jim Marousco-publisher of the The Financial Brand on Monday 22ndat 11:15am
- "Gradually then suddenly, the unbundling of the bank", with Anand Sanwal, CEO and co-founder of CB Insights on Monday 22ndat 11:35am
- "Hey Alexa, what's next for voice commerce", with Patrick Gauthierfrom Amazon on Tuesday 23rdat 10:50am
- "Meet Interstellar: tokens as the new form of value", moderated by David BirchDirector of Innovation of Consult Hyperion, with Adam Ludwinco-founder and CEO of Interstellar and Jed McCaleb, co-founder and CTO of Interstellar. I mean, David and Adam are two of my favorite people in the world, so there.
- AI & Deep Learning: The entire track looks very enticing and is chaired by none other than David Shrier, Associate Fellow, University of Oxford; Lecturer & Futurist, MIT Media Lab; Founder & CEO, Distilled Analytics, so I know the quality of the content will be very high.
- Automation in Financial Services: hype of reality, on October 21 at 9:55am
- Blockchain & Crypto: This topic is chaired by Ian Khan, Filmmaker & Technology Futurist, Futuracy. I pored over every session of this track and I want to attend all of them. As simple as that. This topic will take place on Tuesday 23rdfrom 8:25am til 3:20pm. Lord give me strength!
- Startup Challenge:Well, I am moderating the Group 2 semifinal on Monday 22ndat 1pm, so it would be poor form for me not to attend. Enough said.
- The Fintech Revolution:chaired by John Rampton, Writer, Forbes; Founder, Wheelhouse Partners; and Founder & CEO, Dueand my good friend Chris Skinner, Author & Blogger, The Finanser Ltd. The entire topic looks very interesting and I had a tough time choosing my favorites.
- "Building trust with consumers, explainable AI & the future of underwriting"moderated by Jenny Surane, Finance reporter with Bloomberg on Monday 22ndat 2:40pm
- "RegTech Revolution" with Jo Ann Barefoot, Co-Founder, Hummingbird Regtech & CEO, Barefoot Innovation Group on Monday 22ndat 3:20pm
- "Digital Humans & the fintech revolution"with Chris Skinner on Tuesday 23rdat 10:20am
- "The Anthropology of Money"on Tuesday 23rdat 10:50am. There is no designated moderator for this one. Wink, wink, nudge nudge to my M2020 organizer friends, I would love to moderate this one. Paging Andrew Morris fromMoney 20/20
- Breaking news & Fintech views:chaired by Chris Skinner. I swear, that man shadows me everywhere I go. Again, I am listing two sessions for this topic, one of which I am moderating, and as such will have to be present, it goes without saying.
- "Cloud Banks",moderated by myself, with the most excellet Scott Mullins, Head of Worldwide Financial Services Business Development, Amazon Web Services on Tuesday 23rdat 1:10pm.
- "Marcus by Goldman Sachs"with Omer Ismail, Chief Commercial Officer, Marcus by Goldman Sachs, on Tuesday 23rdat 2:30pm. I bet everyone and their sisters will want to attend this session.
- Banks & Personal Finance: chaired by David Poole, Director of Business & Brand Strategy, Publicis.Sapient
- "Open Banking: What's been achieved? What' the commercial case?"moderated by Philippe Dintrans, SVP & Chief Digital Officer, Global Consulting Leader, Banking & Financial Services, Cognizant on Monday 22ndat 1pm. Ok, so the first reason I include this session is because I am keenly interested in all things open banking. The second reason, which is WAYmore important is because the moderator, Philippe Dintrans is the homonym of Philippe Dintrans a French rugby legend and one of my childhood heroes.
- "Bank of the future",moderated by Jason Gardner, CEO and founder of Marqeta, on Monday 22d at 4pm
It goes without saying that, although the above sessions caught my eye for a specific reason – whether some of the themes explored mesh with my own research and investment themes or whether I know the moderator and speakers will do a rocking job of it – that there are many other sessions worthy of your time. My humble curation is not an end all be all by far.
Finally, don't forget to attend the pool part on Sunday night which I will co-host.
Incidentally, this is how James Wester thinks I will show up for the pool party:
That's it for now and until my next post, happy readings and happy planning for Money 2020 Las Vegas 2018.

Winchester school funding issue to be discussed at state Board of Education meeting
WINSTED >> The state Board of Education will begin to discuss a complaint made by the Winchester Board of Education accusing the town of failing to meet the statutorily mandated minimum budget requirement and therefore putting the education of Winchester's students in jeopardy.
The state board is holding its monthly meeting Wednesday in Hartford. The discussion of the complaint, pursuant to Section 10-4b of the state general statutes, was added to the agenda late Tuesday.
"Adding the matter to the agenda will allow the State Board of Education to discuss the complaint and determine what state action to take," said Winchester Board of Education Chairwoman Susan Hoffnagle in an email.
The minimum budget requirement law requires municipalities to fund education at or above the level of the previous fiscal year. In Winchester, that number is currently $19,958,149. School officials claim that the town will not be able to meet that amount, which is budgeted for this fiscal year, because of the money problems it is facing. Winchester is still dealing with recovering missing funds that were allegedly stolen by former finance director Henry Centrella.
Winchester Superintendent of Schools Thomas Danehy sent a letter to Stefan Pryor, the state education commissioner, asking for him to begin 10-4b proceedings against the town to "prevent (Winchester) from denying the state interest in educating Winchester's students." Danehy said the town did not actually fund the MBR, despite budgeting money for it in the 2012-13 financial year.
"I write to you in reference of the Winchester Board of Education's inability to pay vendors for services rendered in the 2012-13 school year," he wrote in the Sept. 6 letter. "As of today, the board has accounts payable of $727,920.91."
As a result of the town's inability to pay the school board, Region 7 and Gilbert School informed Danehy that they are going to the state to seek remedy for non-payment of bills due last year, and partial payments being made on the Gilbert monthly tuition payment this year. Danehy said that if the BOE paid all the money it owes, it would jeopardize its ability to make payroll and insurance payments in a timely manner. He said Shared Services, which provides special education to students in Winchester, is also considering denying those services.
In September, Danehy said he understands the town's current economic crisis, but noted that the board of education cannot effectively run a business with a lack of funding.
"We're not oblivious to the town's plights," he said. "But the creditors are on our tails."
Since the letter was sent to the state board, Town Manager Dale Martin and other Winchester officials met with the state Municipal Finance Advisory Commission and Office of Policy and Management on Sept. 17 and discussed how to possibly remedy the school funding issues.
During the meeting, Ben Barnes, secretary of OPM, warned the town officials that Winchester will face a penalty if it fails to fund the board of education at the minimum budget requirement (MBR).
According to Connecticut General Statutes 10-262i, the town will face a penalty equal to twice the amount of what the town owes the board of education if it fails to meet the MBR. That amount will be withheld by the state Department of Education and will be reflected in the town's Education Cost Sharing (ECS) grant payment in the following fiscal year.
To alleviate Winchester's financial stress, the finance advisory commission recommended that the town consider a handful of options. One is a supplemental tax in addition to the mill rate. Another was short-term borrowing at a possibly high interest rate. Also suggested was tax and grant anticipation notes which are advances on future taxes and grants given by the state. The final option was for the town to sell its future expected payments to get an early lump sum. Each of these would be expected to replenish the town's shortfalls in cash.
Martin said after that meeting that the minimum school budget requirement is being met.
The state Board of Education meeting is being held at 9:30 a.m. in room 1D of the Legislative Office Building in Hartford.

'Problemas de estilo y vasijas de barro' is Asier Mendizabal's exploration of the origins of archaeological and ethnographic collections in the 19th century. With a series of works in glass and paper, as well as concrete sculptures, the exhibition overlaps materials, images and histories from distant territories, to offer a reflection on the impulses of comparison, analysis and classification – impulses that shape our perception of pre-Colombian culture, as part of Modernity's project.
Taking as one of its starting points a historical reflection on the work of Paul Rivet and his participation in the Second Geodesic Mission at the beginning of the 20th century, Mendizabal creates an exhibition architecture in which comparison, classification and the overlaying of cultural and scientific perspectives propose a complex vision on history and the present. The works explore how art history, archaeology, anthropology and ethnography catalogue objects (and people) according to their morphology, age and functionality, following world visions dominant at the time.
Mendizabal is not only looking to question the shape and parameters that classified these objects in the 19th and 20th century, but also the constructions that operate today. Through this, the exhibition looks at the Museum through contrast, comparison and differentiation, in order to make visible and to recognise the dispositives that are used, as well as the multiple gazes and perspectives that are possible in the act of showing and appreciating pre-Colombian objects today. With this exhibition, Museo Casa del Alabado intends to stimulate a critical and analytical gaze both towards Mendizabal's show and to the permanent collection, in order to understand how these objects, outside of the environment where they were created, acquire multiple meanings and agencies in response to new artistic, stylistic, ideological and institutional criteria.

Saudi foundation pledges $50m to help eradicate measles
Funding from Alwaleed Philanthropies will be used by UNICEF to vaccinate more than 51 million children in 14 countries
Funding from Alwaleed Philanthropies will be used by UNICEF to vaccinate more than 51 million children in 14 countries
The funding will be used to vaccinate more than 51 million children in 14 countries against the diseases, at a time when recent measles outbreaks in Nigeria, Italy and Romania have fuelled concerns about its resurgence.
Anthony Lake, UNICEF's head, said the money would "serve as a catalyst, to spur greater investment and greater practical action to immunise the children at the greatest risk."
More than 100,000 babies are born with congenital rubella syndrome every year, a disease that can leave children blind, deaf or with other serious health defects if their mothers are infected with rubella during pregnancy.
An international effort has cut measles deaths by 79 per cent in 15 years – a fall from more than 651,000 in 2000, to 134,200 in 2015. But the contagious disease remains a leading threat to young children, killing more than 300 a day, according to World Health Organisation data.
It can be prevented with two doses of an inexpensive and effective vaccine, but a fall-off in immunisation rates has contributed to a sharp rise in infection rates.
In Nigeria, where insecurity has limited vaccination efforts, a measles outbreak in 2016 affecting some 25,000 children led to at least 100 deaths, UNICEF said.
The UN agency used a window of stability to vaccinate 4.7 million children against in northeast Nigeria in January, covering Adamawa, Borno and Yobe; the three states most affected by the Boko Haram conflict.
"The number of children around the world still suffering from measles and rubella is astonishing – but what is more astonishing is how easy it is to prevent these diseases through safe and effective vaccines," said Princess Lamia AlSaud, secretary general of Alwaleed Philanthropies. "This is the kind of philanthropic partnership we need… to protect some of the most vulnerable children in the world."
Alwaleed Philanthropies is the giving vehicle of Saudi royal Prince Alwaleed bin Talal. In 2015, the billionaire investor pledged to give his entire $32bn fortune to charity over the coming years.

Bring back the big, bold music of the 30s and 40s with these Big Bands. With the jazzy tunes cascading out of the saxophones and keys tapping on the piano, you won't be able to stop dancing! Top it all off with a smooth-voiced crooner to really make the evening. Bring on the horns, strings, and drums and strike up the band. Your guests will be swing dancing the night away as they are transported back to the heydays of the jazz big band in the 1930s and 40s. Book one of these big bands to add some vintage flair to any event. Search for Big Bands in Montclair, New Jersey above.
Please note that these Big Bands may also travel to Glen Ridge, Verona, Upper Montclair, Cedar Grove, Essex Fells, Caldwell, Roseland, West Caldwell, Little Falls, South Orange, East Newark, Woodland Park, Harrison, East Rutherford, Wallington, Fairfield, Totowa, Carlstadt, Wood Ridge, Wood-Ridge, Vauxhall, East Hanover, Short Hills, Hasbrouck Heights, Pine Brook, Moonachie, Lincoln Park, Saddle Brook, Rochelle Park, and Teterboro.

Whether your deli is on the main street or at the seaside, you will need help choosing the best POS system when you're looking to upgrade your existing cash register or point of sale.
This guide will explain the major benefits of deli POS software and what features are most important to help make your deli more successful and easier to run.
Your POS system can either be a reliable tool that helps you grow and manage the deli effectively or nothing but an expensive hassle. POS systems change and improve every year.
For example, using an iPad as a POS device has changed the entire business when it comes to cash registers for small enterprises. You're no longer forced into a long term contract and compelled to use costly, outdated proprietary equipment.
It takes just minutes to connect to a standard cash drawer and compatible networked printers. Easy to operate and almost never malfunctioning, iPads are widely available both new and used, so users enjoy great reliability to affordability ratio.

Our Top Deli POS Software: Poster POS
Poster is a tablet Point of Sale (POS) for delis, cafes and shops. The POS application works on laptops, iPads and Android tablets, which reduces the initial cost greatly. Poster offers a great number of useful features and is excellent value for money. These features include, but are not limited to financial and stock control, bonuses, discounts, and promotions settings, fast food mode, built-in customizable reports, and floor section map and supply storage notifications. It is easy to set up and takes just minutes. You'll be on your way to saving time and money before you know it!
3 Best Deli POS Systems
Why Poster Is Our Top Pick for a Deli POS System
Poster's quick order taking function is one of its best. We tested the app thoroughly to see how long it would need to take an order. The interface is intuitive and requires no staff training time. Your staff can start selling in less than a minute.
The software is equally reliable online and offline. Temporary losses of Internet access won't stop your deli from working – you can continue taking orders and getting receipts printed. All offline orders will be integrated in the cloud and you will be able to see them in the management console after the connection is restored.
All resources will work for your business. You can select password protection for actions that necessitate advanced security, such as making discounts, removing order items after printing a receipt, and more.
Barcode Scanner
Deli managers can connect a barcode scanner to Poster POS to start taking orders faster. You can add goods, scan barcodes and discount cards and more. The software also supports Motorola Bluetooth scanners. What is more, your customers can split payments into parts, paying cash or by gift or credit card as they choose.
Print Tickets
The software enables you to print tickets for your station of choice. You can easily split an order among several guests too. In counter service mode, the floor plan can be turned off. Your staff can navigate open orders on the floor plan very easily. You can add a table, change its size or move it in the management console with a visual editor.
Your logo, address, and Wi-Fi spot name and password can be added to every receipt. This software has several simple and strong reports – sales, receipts, profit, guest count, sales through daytime and days of week, average check, and more. All of these features can be grouped by locations, customers, waiters, stations, payment methods, and products and categories.
This company's servers are located in Germany and data is backed up automatically three times a day. No one can steal your password because the management console uses a secure HTTPS protocol.
Control Your Cash
Waiters report the amount of cash at the beginning and end of each day, and the software compares expected and reported cash amounts and notifies you if something seems wrong. It also counts tax amount you need to pay for a certain period based on the type of item automatically.
Works For Franchises Too
If you own/run a franchise, Poster can be incorporated into your franchise contract.
Bottom Line
Poster POS is a great choice if you don't have a POS system at present, because you just opened your venue, you want to upgrade your POS, or you need to introduce a POS at a chain of delis. It is very functional and great value for money.
Deli POS System with Management In Mind: Loyverse
Loyverse lets you manage your deli from mobile devices, acquire, keep and engage customers, manage inventory, generate higher yield and visualize sales analytics. Sales become quick and easy, as does building your customer base. You can send messages and e-receipts to your customers and gather valuable feedback.
Limit Waste
This deli POS software tracks inventory and indicates if something is causing a high amount of food waste or if you are losing money for another reason. Overbuying is one of the main causes of restaurant food waste. If you are tracking your sales with ingredient inventory accurately, you should have a good grasp of how many raw ingredients you're using each day.
Smart Management
With Loyverse, it is possible to manage one or more stores from the same account. Your analytics are uploaded to the cloud. It is a system, with which you can grow and prosper – retain customers, boost sales and run your own loyalty program. You will also be better able to make informed business decisions thanks to the visual analytical reports.
The back office works in sync with the POS system. You can see what your top-selling items are and browse your transaction history. The free dashboard app offers instant access to your deli's stock and sales analytics anytime, anywhere. You can view revenue, profit and average sales and follow sales growth, making comparisons to previous days, weeks, even months and years. You will also see which items are selling well, averagely, or selling poorly.
View Stock Levels
Users of this POS system receive instant notifications when inventory is running low or out. Orders are dispatched to the kitchen automatically, faster and with fewer errors, and your cooks know what to prepare from all orders. Sound notifications ensure you will never miss a new order. You can view the list of completed orders and reopen orders if needed. Finally, you can see all the tickets at a glance with colors indicating the anticipated waiting time.
This POS software is not very convenient to use with smartphones according to some users. On bigger screens, a category drop box is needed.
Bottom Line
This system is easy to use and flexible. It can be run online by multiple users. There is a separate dashboard and instant customer support. All in all, we would recommend it.
Efficient POS System for Small Delis: eZee BurrP!
eZee BurrP! stands out from the crowd not only because of its quirky name. This fully integrated, user-friendly, intuitive deli POS software entails an approach that is unique in its simplicity, and it is amazingly reliable. No matter if you have one deli or a chain, the system helps you manage your business efficiently. It works on touch screen devices as well as on desktops.
Fast And Efficient Tools
This system's customizable options make it perfect for any restaurant type. You get direct access to all operations modes right from the central dashboard. This limits errors in order type and increases service speed. You can choose from Takeout, Dine In, and Delivery, making it easier for the staff to track the order type and making the billing process simpler. What is more, the Kitchen Display System (KDS) displays all orders in the kitchen immediately to ensure fast order preparation, leading to quicker and better service.
The Grand Finale – Billing
Anybody with even remote knowledge of restaurant management knows that customer service doesn't end with serving an order. Billing operations are the final and the most critical aspect for every food and beverage establishment, as they tend to make a lasting impression on the guests. This POS system streamlines all operations and keeps all the updates between orders in check, managing the entire billing process, which includes adding or removing items from an order, splitting checks and more.
Among the other great features of this POS system and software is table reservation management, the option to create multiple menus, to customize orders with item modifiers and make different menus with different taxes and rates.
Inventory And Stock Management
One of the most annoying and cumbersome tasks in restaurant management is Inventory and Stock Management. Any sort of error in this regard often leads to widespread confusion in all departments. This system's sophisticated inventory and stock management module is attuned to the finest of detail, making it possible to track items, efficiently manage the stock, and reduce wastage.
The reports and advance tracking keep you up to date with the stock levels. You will reduce expenses because you can see the fluctuating demands in your deli. The real-time inventory option lets you set stock levels, initiate item transfer, customize inventory and stock rates and more.
The interface can be too heavy for a POS. According to some users, it cannot be customized to adapt to your deli's individual needs. A better recipe management system is needed, as are more sync features to sync automatically based on time. The lack of a loyalty program is a distinct disadvantage.
Bottom Line
This POS system makes it easy to manage multiple delis, and the online reports for managers it generates are extremely useful.
The Bottom Line
When choosing a deli POS system, there are certain key features you need to consider, and these involve being able to view which products are selling, being able to view recipes, and knowing your costs. The best POS system for delis isn't just capable and rich in features – it also helps owners and managers address the concerns they may have about running the business.
The best POS system provides you with the resources to do more on your limited time while discovering new ways to save money.
Your employees should be trained to use the right ingredient portions. However, you don't have to rely on your memory with a deli POS system that tracks ingredients. A good system will let you tap the item to find the description and recipe. This way even new, inexperienced staff members will know exactly how to make a sandwich down to the exact ounce.
Finally, all deli managers realize that controlling food cost is important. Menu items need to be designed in such a way so that the perceived value of the item is higher than the cost of its raw materials. This seems obvious, but it can be tricky.
A good POS system will give you an instant food cost calculation if you know how much your ingredients cost and how much of each ingredient goes into each menu item. You can then adjust portion ingredients or sizes to hit your targets.

Lord Jesus Christ, I want to give myself to you completely.
When I see your Sacred Heart, I reflect upon your love. You came from the Father
taking a human body with a human heart. You taught us to love God with all our
hearts. You suffered and died to save us from sin and death. As you hung on the
cross, your Heart was pierced by a lance. Out of it poured blood and water to
signify the birth of your Church.
You rose from the dead, Jesus, to live forever with your
Father in Heaven. But your Heart is still full of love for us. You still feel
pain when your people reject or ignore your love. You want us all to live
forever with God.
I now consecrate myself to your Sacred Heart, Jesus. You are
the Son of God who I love with all my heart. I offer you my body, my soul, my
mind, and my heart. Receive me, make me holy, make my heart like your Heart,
and guide me in the way of perfect love today and every day of life. Amen.

text: In our second Lit Cut after the first one on metaphors, we will be studying the art of narration and the many different ways we can analyse the narrator. In the first half, we're split hairs on what or who an omniscient narrator, limited narrator, first-person narrator, unreliable narrator all mean. Once our voices are hoarse with these literary terms, we'll progress to analysing examples of Austen's narrator from Pride and Prejudice.

A federal judge in California has ruled that Qualcomm is allowed to sell chips infringing the Broadcom patents, until the end of January 2009 at least, while paying a mandatory royalty to Broadcom during that period.
The two companies have been at loggerheads over the patents throughout 2007, though Qualcomm has been on the losing side recently with the courts ruling against them and Bush deciding against a presidential intervention.
This ruling, reported by Reuters, means that Qualcomm can at least shift their stock of chips, but could be challenged by Broadcom depending on the royalties they receive.
It would seem that 2007 has not dulled Qualcomm's taste for court action, and this is unlikely to be the end of the dispute between the two companies. ®

EppsNet Archive: Communism
To Make the Accusation is to Prove It. To Hear the Allegation is to Believe It.
Simply to make the accusation is to prove it. To hear the allegation is to believe it. No motive for the perpetrator is necessary, no logic or rationale is required. Only a label is required. The label is the motive. The label is the evidence. The label is the logic. Why did Coleman Silk do this? Because he is an x, because he is a y, because he is both. First a racist and now a misogynist. It is too late in the century to call him a Communist, though that is the way it used to be done. . . . That explains everything. — Philip Roth, The Human Stain Read more →
One Thing I Can't Tolerate is Intolerance: Margaret Court Edition
Margaret Court is being vilified and stigmatized this week — "racist," "homophobe," 'blood on her hands," name should be taken off the Australian Open arena, etc. — because she opposes gay marriage and homosexuality in general. If you want to position yourself as a champion of inclusion, diversity, respect, tolerance, you've got to extend those things to other people as well, and not just people who see the world exactly like you do. You want tolerance and respect for sexual preferences? What about religious preferences? Margaret Court is a Christian pastor. A lot of people believe that God frowns on homosexuality. I don't believe that myself but it's not a weird fringe opinion. Yes, Margaret Court introduced Satan and Nazis and Communists into the conversation, but Margaret Court isn't presenting herself as an advocate of inclusion and tolerance. She's saying this is right and that is wrong. You can't position… Read more →

Everyone Was Equal
Sorry, but I'm from a place where everything was "shared equally" and it wasn't as nice as some of you seem to think it would be. — Garry Kasparov (@Kasparov63) October 20, 2013 Or as fellow grandmaster Viktor Korchnoi wrote in his autobiography: "The Soviets were very successful: everyone was equal — equally poor."

More People I'm Sick Unto Death Of: Paul Krugman
America in the 1950s made the rich pay their fair share; it gave workers the power to bargain for decent wages and benefits; yet contrary to right-wing propaganda then and now, it prospered. And we can do that again. — Paul Krugman I hardly know where to begin with this . . . First of all, what is the relevance of the 1950s as opposed to any other period of American history? America prior to 1913 had no permanent income tax and contrary to left-wing propaganda, it prospered. Why can't we do that again? Of course we're all in favor of fairness — right? — but why is it only important that "the rich" pay their "fair share"? I don't remember ever hearing anyone, certainly not Krugman, use the phrase "pay their fair share" in reference to any group except "the rich." If you're concerned about fairness, isn't it also… Read more →
We Aren't in Business as Shopkeepers
[The Mayor, a Communist, has asked what penance Father Quixote would give him for fornication. Ellipses are in the original.] "You know–of course you don't know–I don't like the taste of tomatoes at all. But suppose Father Heribert Jone had written that it was a mortal sin to eat tomatoes and the old lady who lives next door to me came to me in the church to confess she had eaten a tomato. What penance would I give her? As I don't eat tomatoes myself I wouldn't even be able to imagine how deep her depravity might be. Of course a rule would have been broken . . . a rule . . . one can't avoid knowing that." "You are avoiding my question, father, what penance . . . ?" "Perhaps one Our Father and one Hail Mary." "Only one?" "One said properly must surely be the equal of… Read more →
Failure is an Orphan
For centuries, historians have debated whether history is propelled by Great Men (and Women), human forces of nature who bend events and systems to their will, or by vast impersonal forces (communism, capitalism, globalization) that render even the most powerful of us a mere reed basket floating in a massive river. There's no session on the subject at the World Economic Forum in Davos. But at least with regard to finance and business, the consensus seems to be clear: Success is the work of Great Men and Great Women, while failure can be pinned on the system. — Daniel Gross, "Why the world's economic leaders blame the catastrophe on the system instead of themselves" Read more →

The country is placing its bets on Human Capital for its bid for the best foreign-language nomination at next year's Academy Awards. Paolo Virzi's neo-noir thriller Human Capital earned a slew of national awards this year , including seven wins at the David di Donatello awards, beating out The Great Beauty for the best film honor, and six Nastri d'Argento Awards. The film was a box-office smash in Italy, widely hailed for its fast-paced tale of the unraveling of a wealthy family who bet on Italy's downfall, all the while destroying everything around them in their quest for success. It was based on the American novel by Stephen Amidon, swapping out Connecticut for northern Italy, which accounts for its Hollywood-style storytelling. It had its U.S. premiere at the Tribeca Film Festival this year and was acquired by New York distributor Film Movement. Read more Field of Foreign-Language Oscar Contenders Begins to Come Into Focus Human Capital was chosen from a shortlist of seven films this year that also included Alice Rohrwacher's The Wonders, Francesco Munzi's Black Souls, Ferzan Ozpetek's Fasten Your Seatbelts, Edoardo Winspeare's Quiet Bliss, the Manetti Bros.'

Directors Gianni Amelio and Gabriele Salvatores, producers Tommaso Arrighi and Angelo Barbagallo, and distributor Barbara Salabe served on the selection panel alongside other industry players.

Find Hidden Assets During Divorce
Frequently, divorces come with challenges much more complex than dividing basic assets, making child custody (time sharing) arrangements, and setting up child support and alimony payments. Especially in situations involving high net worth divorce, some people will go to great lengths to avoid the accurate identification, valuation and division of marital assets.
These individuals may engage in marital fraud by transferring substantial assets to family and friends. They may also use shell corporations, offshore accounts and tax shelters to hide assets and attempt to appear as though their net worth is less than what it really is.
Uncovering hidden assets may call for sophisticated forensic accounting actions such as monitoring electronic transactions and gaining access to offshore financial records. For more than 40 years, Cauthen, Oldham & Associates, P.A., has been a proven resource for high net worth individuals and others facing divorce and other family law matters involving hidden assets. We provide professional, discreet representation to clients throughout central Florida.
Uncovering The Truth
One of the most common situations involving hidden assets is when a divorcing couple or individual spouse owns a closely held business. Sometimes money is transferred into or out of the business to make it appear less valuable than it really is. Other times, business records are altered to make the company seem as though it is making less money or taking a loss, even when it is thriving.
At Cauthen, Oldham & Associates, P.A., we partner with forensic accountants, private investigators, and tax and other financial experts to uncover the truth. Examining tax returns, ledgers and other documentation can be helpful in showing us where money is being spent and whether property has been transferred into a friend's or relative's name. No matter how complex your case may seem, our firm has the experience and resources to efficiently track down hidden assets while protecting your rights and interests.
Contact A Tavares Attorney For Forensic Accounting
For the trusted advice and zealous representation you need, call an experienced lawyer at our firm at 352-508-4175 or toll free at 888-801-1678. You can also contact us by email. We can help you find hidden assets in Lake County, across the country and around the world.

STATEN ISLAND, N.Y. - As far as murder suspects go, he seems like he'd stand out of a crowd, but so far, police are still looking to identify the business-suit clad man they believe fatally shot a Mariners Harbor man nearly three weeks ago.
Cops are still looking for leads in the July 23 shooting of Shaun Adorno, a shooting, that police said was carried out by a stout gunman wearing a charcoal-gray suit.
Law enforcement sources familiar with the case say investigators have been focusing their efforts on interviewing people in Brooklyn - Adorno is believed to have angered someone there, possibly over a drug-dealing dispute.
The shooting took place at about 8 a.m. Adorno, 31, answered the door of his 70 Heaney Ave. apartment, and was greeted by the well-dressed assassin, police said, who shot him three times, hitting him in the head and chest.
He died of his wounds hours later in Richmond University Medical Center, West Brighton.
Police described the suspect as stout and olive-skinned, in his late 20s or early 30s, about 5 feet, 10 inches tall, and dressed in a "charcoal-gray suit," tie and dress shoes. The man fled on Wilcox Street, though his image was captured by a surveillance camera.
Anyone who recognizes the photo, or has information on the shooting is asked to call the NYPD's Crime Stoppers hotline, 800-577-TIPS, log on to www.nypdcrimestoppers.com or text tips to 274637, followed by TIP577.
Police sources say Adorno had a checkered past, which included drug possession charges in 1999 and 2007, and a 1998 leaving the scene of an accident arrest.
In the 1998 case, Adorno ran a stop sign and struck a 7-year-old boy while driving a friend's black Lincoln Continental in Sunset Park, Brooklyn, according to court documents and news accounts. He fled the scene as an off-duty police officer chased him into Manhattan, where he struck another car, got out of his car and fought with the officer, striking him with a steel steering-wheel lock before running away.
Adorno turned himself in two days later, after his friend was charged in the hit-and-run.

Faith Works 5-15-10
Jeff Gill
Just one quarter-century later…
So here we are, married for 25 years.
It's more than that, actually, since we dated for four years before that. My wife and I passed the "known each other half our lives mark" a while back, and (ahem) are now married for that percentage of our journeys as well.
It seems like I've known her forever, and that we just met a little while ago: funny how that is.
25 years isn't one of those major mega anniversaries, what with Willard Scott having all these 75 and 80 year marriages on along with the centenarians. 50 is golden, 75 is diamond, and 25 is silver, but after our microwave broke last week and the new one arrived (happy anniversary, honey!) it feels like it ought to be the Styrofoam jubilee, or maybe corrugated.
We can't say that "everyone said it wouldn't last," because they didn't; the campus ministry where we met and ultimately married (yes, we met at a church committee meeting, it was kismet) would often get very excited about engagement announcements during the post-worship fellowship time. When we announced ours, the reaction was a polite, "well, sure." Apparently it was both obvious and inevitable.
Staying married used to be that, which of course it is not anymore. 25 years may be a harder trick than getting to 50 these days, given a generational shift between those two eras that's still hitting us with aftershocks. And now, with medical advances, if you can build a marriage to the quarter-century mark, it should readily stand the storms of life and tests of the times to a half-century and beyond.
The big increase in this last twenty years has been in the early divorce. I know that some reading this would like me to make the Biblical and moral case for why cohabitation is wrong, which I'm happy to preach on at length on a Sunday, but in a 700 word column aimed at a general audience thinking variously about what faith means, I'm content with saying: we've run a generation long experiment on cohabitation as a tool for building healthier, happier marriages, and the data are in.
It doesn't work.
Cohabitation doesn't promote stability throughout your life, it doesn't increase marital happiness, and it doesn't reduce divorce. Quite the contrary. The fact that I know a number of couples who lived together, sometimes for quite a while, before "tying the knot" in a legal or liturgical sense, and have stayed married for a long time – that just means that demographically there are more people who have lived together, but the stats are pretty clear that the numbers go strongly towards cohabitation making relationships weaker, less stable, more likely to split. The exceptions, blessings to all of them, don't contradict that fact.
Churches have struggled with how to minister to couples in this new environment. If you say things like . . . oh, like what I just said in this column, from the pulpit, are you condemning all the couples now married and solid and stable sitting in your pews, who lived together before marriage? How do you teach a clear message to your youth when not only the culture but institutions and even most of their families will be telling them something quite different?
I would affirm, both here and in my preaching mode, that the key here is not to say what marriage is better than or what manner of life is worse, but to simply proclaim, with great love and clarity what marriage is: a model of God's intention for Christ and the church, a secure basis for building not only families but the indispensible element of community itself, and a school for the soul in good times and bad.
Do other manners of life know nothing of those things? Certainly not, but I can say, from scripture, and tradition, and my own beloved experience that it is certainly and indisputably true that an enduring marriage is the revelation of God's redemptive work in creation, an ultimate reality of its own that connects us the reality that is God.
Thanks for preaching me that sermon, Joyce. I'm ready to listen another 25 years!

Possibly one of the best addon planes ever created and one of my personal favorite. The simulation is near 100% like the real one and it is an absolute joy to fly. With 3 auxiliary tanks this beauty can go half around the world without a refueling stop.
Download Link for the 777-200LR YoloAir Livery
One of the most used airliners and PMDG did an amazing job in modelling this plane. As expected the system depth is just outstanding and the plane handles like a charm. A true study level simulation and a must have addon.

The Dash 8 – Q400 is a twin engine, medium range, turboprop airliner built by Bombardier. The addon I use is developed by Majestic Sofware. It is available for FSX and P3D. It is my favorite aircraft to fly and the quality of the addon is just outstanding.
