Florida Malls and Retailers Opening After Hurricane Irma
Stores assess damages and prepare to reopen
In a sign that Florida is regaining a semblance of normalcy in the wake of
Hurricane Irma, curfews on Tuesday were lifted in Miami-Dade County.
Irma’s negative impacts on retail were estimated by Planalytics to be $2.8
billion. Hurricane Irma’s impact on the economy is still being calculated.
Hurricane Harvey’s impact continues to grow, according to Ball State University
economist Michael Hicks, who estimated Harvey’s impact to the economy at $198
billion, with homes and businesses still under water.
Following widespread outages from Irma, with about 6.6 million homes losing
power due to sustained winds of up to 130 miles per hour, and storm surges of up
to 20 feet in parts of the state, Miami on Tuesday was cleaning up, assessing
the damage and getting ready to open for business.

Hurricane Price Gouging Is Despicable, Right? Not to Some Economists
When a devastating hurricane like Irma or Harvey arrives, stories about price
gouging inevitably spread quickly. Last week, a one-way coach flight from Miami
to Phoenix
jumped in price from $547.50 to $3,258.50, prompting immediate outrage. In
Houston, a picture of a
case of water being sold for $42.96 at Best Buy did the same. (Best Buy
apologized and said it was a “big mistake” by a few employees.)
Over all, more than 8,000 complaints of price gouging on items like gas,
food and ice were lodged with the Florida attorney general’s office through the
weekend.
On its face, the very idea of price gouging, especially during a natural
disaster, feels outrageous. Indeed, 34 states have anti-gouging laws
meant to protect consumers.
However, in a small slice of the world of economists and businesses, there is a
fascinating debate about the topic - with many arguing that
price gouging is actually a good thing.

Bank Fraud Charges Against Jewelry Store Owner Dismissed
A Massachusetts federal judge on Monday threw out the government’s criminal case
against a luxury jewelry store owner charged with falsifying inventory entries
to receive additional financing, saying the government didn’t try hard enough to
make a timely arrest.
Like the initial indictment, which was tossed in July, the superseding
indictment violates the Sixth Amendment right to a speedy trial for Raman
Handa, CEO of jewelry retailer Alpha Omega, U.S. District Judge Rya W. Zobel
said. The court tossed the original indictment after determining a six-year
delay between charging Handa and his February arrest was due to the government’s
negligence, and determined a new bank fraud count doesn’t cure the superseding
indictment of “the same constitutional defects.”
Handa was charged in 2011 with 12 counts of wire fraud for allegedly
participating in a 2007 scheme to overstate the value of Alpha Omega’s
inventory in an effort to increase the amount it could borrow from
subsidiaries of Bank of America N.A. and LaSalle Bank Midwest N.A.

iPhone X’s Face ID raises security and privacy questions
The new top-of-the-range iPhone does away with the home button and its built-in
fingerprint reader in favor of a new biometric - called
Face ID - which uses a 3D scan of the user’s face for authenticating and
unlocking their device. It also replaces Touch ID for Apple Pay too.
Apple suggests this is an advancement over a fingerprint reader because it’s an
easier and more natural action for the user to perform - you just look at the
phone and it unlocks; no need to worry if you have wet fingers and so on. Apple
is working the convenience angle hard.
However offering to gate the smorgasbord of personal content that lives on a
smartphone behind a face biometric inevitably raises lots of security questions.
techcrunch.com
Apple's New FaceID Will Make It Easier For Police To Access Criminals' iPhone X
While in one way FaceID is more secure than the company's TouchID, which uses
your fingerprint to open your phone, it's also more insecure. The chance of
someone else's fingerprint unlocking your phone, Apple says, is less than one in
50,000, but the chance of someone else's face unlocking your phone is less than
one in 1,000,000. However, touching your fingerprint to your phone is a
voluntary act that is easy to not do unless physically forced.
Of course, Apple has built technology into FaceID -- which also enables
purchases and can eliminate the need for passwords -- to make this challenging.
FaceID will not unlock your phone unless your eyes are open, for instance.
Averting your face will also block the technology. This means that you'll be
able to try to resist unlocking your phone.
However, a persistent law enforcement agent who holds your iPhone X in your
face for an extended period of time, or who surprises you with it, is likely to
be able to catch an unguarded moment and be able to unlock your phone.
That could be a good thing or could be a bad thing, depending on where you sit
on the personal privacy versus public safety debate.

Agilence Receives Enterprise-Ready Rating from the Skyhigh CloudTrust Program
Agilence customers benefit from exceptional
customer support and data analytics platform with top ranking security
capabilities MOUNT LAUREL, NJ – September 13, 2017 –
Agilence, Inc., the leader in cloud-based data analytics for store operations
and loss prevention, today announced that it has been
awarded the Skyhigh CloudTrust rating of enterprise-ready for its data
analytics platform. This Enterprise-Ready rating meets the most stringent
requirements for data protection, identity verification, service security,
business practices and legal protection.
"Agilence is thrilled to be awarded the prestigious Skyhigh Enterprise-Ready
rating,” said Jeff Freedman, Vice President of Technology for Agilence. “It’s
great to see third-party recognition of our application, infrastructure-level
security controls, and stringent internal processes. We’ve always been committed
to providing world-class security to our customers, and this Skyhigh CloudTrust
rating is a testament to that.”
Skyhigh identifies and classifies thousands of cloud services and provides an
objective and detailed evaluation of the enterprise-readiness of each cloud
service based on a detailed set of criteria developed in conjunction with the
Cloud Security Alliance (CSA). The evaluation spans five categories:
● Data attributes
● User and device attributes
● Service attributes
● Business attributes
● Legal attributes
“Companies seek enterprise-ready solutions such as Agilence, but vetting the
capabilities and policies of a provider consumes a great deal of time and
resources,” said Kamal Shah, Vice President of Products and Marketing at Skyhigh
Networks. “The Skyhigh CloudTrust Rating shortens the evaluation process from
weeks to hours by offering an objective, holistic assessment of a service
provider’s security capabilities and enterprise readiness."

Retailers Cite Equifax as Need for Uniform Data Breach Law
The National Retail Federation and other industry associations are telling
Congress that any new federal law on data breach notification should apply to
all industries that handle consumer data, citing the recent breach at the
Equifax credit reporting agency.
“The fact is that hackers do not discriminate as to the type of business they
attack,” NRF and the other groups said in a
letter to House and Senate leadership of both parties. “Every industry
sector – whether consumer-facing or business-to-business – faces data security
threats that may put consumer data at risk.”
“To protect customers and ensure effective public policy, Congress should ensure
that any federal breach notification law applies to all affected sectors and
leaves no holes in our system for some industries that criminals can exploit,”
the letter said.
The letter was signed by NRF, NRF’s National Council of Chain Restaurants, and
associations representing convenience stores, truck stops, gasoline stations,
grocers, real estate agents, franchises and the travel industry.

Background Checks Compromised by Massive Equifax Breach
Over Half of Americans' Records Are in Criminal Databases
Yes, there will be some tax and banking fraud as a result of the gargantuan data
breach at Equifax. The biggest impact, however, will be felt by enterprises
that rely on credit reporting bureaus to verify the identity of people they are
doing business with.
Think employment verification, social services verification, and other forms
of identity verification that rely on credit reports. These services depend
on the idea that only the individual knows all the details used to verify
identity, but that assumption requires ignoring the sheer amount of personally
identifiable information (PII) that has been exposed over the past few years.
Among the Office of Personnel Management, Anthem, and scores of other data
breaches at universities, retailers, enterprises, and healthcare organizations
over the last two years, a lot of PII is available for criminals to use.
If criminals have all the information they need to pass identity verification
checks, what good is this authentication system?
Security and fraud experts like
Gartner analyst Avivah Litan have been warning organizations to stop
relying on static personal data for identity verification in favor of dynamic
identity data for a while now. For example, Threatmetrix uses crowdsourcing
and machine learning to establish the user’s identity based on the user’s
dynamic behavior and attributes.
“Based on conversations with Gartner clients, including tax authorities, my
estimate is that over half of Americans have already had their identities
compromised before this latest hack, and their records are already resident in
criminal databases,” Litan said.

Canada’s online retailers
are growing faster than you think
Sales up more than 40% in 2017
Web sales by Canadian retailers are on pace to grow 42% in 2017,
Internet Retailer estimates, based on figures released by Statistics Canada for
the January-May period. That’s a rate three times greater than the
e-retail sales growth rate in Canada when factoring in all online
retailers active in the market, regardless of where they are headquartered. Nine
of the 10 largest online retailers active in Canada are based in the United
States, led by Amazon.com Inc., No. 1 in the Internet Retailer 2017 Top 500.
While web sales in Canada are projected to continue growing overall,
U.S. retailers and others will see their share of the Canadian market shrink.
In the newly published research report, “The Canada 100,” Internet Retailer
estimates Canadian consumers this year will spend 43.9% of their digital
dollars with online retailers based in Canada, up from 35.2% in 2016.
The shift among Canadian consumers to shop more with e-retailers based in
Canada is reflected in growth many online retailers ranked in the Canada 100 say
they are experiencing.

No Retail Crisis for Dollarama as Sales Soar
Growing Faster Than U.S. Dollar-Store Chains
Canada’s largest dollar-store chain posted earnings that topped analysts’
estimates last quarter and raised its gross-margin forecast for the year. While
the Montreal-based company added 17 net new locations, part of the boost came
from a 6.1 percent increase in comparable-store sales.
Dollarama is growing faster than U.S. dollar-store chains, helped by a Canadian
market that’s less saturated than its southern neighbor and an longstanding
policy to stay away from fresh food.

the man and police and the officers fired their weapons, killing the man, the
news release said.
The McDonald's parking lot was cordoned off, as were
the southbound lanes of Groat Road north of 111th Avenue. Police were at the
scene Sunday morning, with vehicles still taped off while they continue to

To sell or not to sell: vendors are wary of
online reputations, study suggests
A new study of online retailers using a major e-commerce website as a third
party platform suggests they place little trust in consumers' transaction
histories.
The study, "To Sell or not to Sell" published in Information Systems Journal
and based on a survey of 443 sellers on the Chinese cross border website DHgate.com, challenges the view that information asymmetry in online
transactions generally favours sellers.
The authors, from four universities, (King's College, London, Hohai Business
School, Kent State and Alabama universities), quote previous studies showing
that online buyers tend to trust sellers on the basis of feedback mechanisms
provided by third party platforms (and other factors) whereas sellers are
less trusting of these sources.
Sellers' lack of trust is put down to the fact that they often experience chargebacks with customers whose online reputations appeared to be sound.
The implications of this and their other findings, the researchers suggest,
is that the current regulatory framework for e-commerce in most
jurisdictions is unfair to sellers.
Commenting on the results, one of the co-authors, Professor Stuart Barnes of
Kings' Business School said:
"With vast numbers of small and medium enterprises selling products and services
online to buyers all over the world, chargeback fraud has become a massive
problem in global e-commerce. Billions of dollars are lost every year, yet
existing research has focused on the notion that buyers are subject to
opportunistic sellers."

Harold Hall, 34, was charged with burglary, grand theft over $100,000,
possession of burglary tools, resisting without violence and criminal mischief
with enhanced penalties due to a state of emergency. Hall was seen in The

“Despite Hurricane Irma’s effect being felt in Port Orange, police responded to
the crime in progress,” said Port Orange police. Police arrived to find the
front glass door smashed in and heard Hall breaking glass cases inside the
store. A police dog was then brought and orders given to Hall but he took off
running, getting out through a back door but was caught by officers after a
brief foot chase. Police found a hammer, a flashlight and several duffel bags

Increase Your
Productivity With Simple Tips
Why Silence May Yield More Productivity Than You
Think We all love to maximize downtime by keeping
productive, but how often do we seek time doing nothing? Through filling every
moment with tasks, you could be missing out on a key ingredient for
productivity.
Silence is golden
3 Ways to Become More Productive Today
We all have days where it's hard to focus on our tasks, and put in
solid work. When there are other things on your mind, it can affect your
productivity greatly, so use these tips to keep your concentration on work.
Live in the present
For Greater Productivity, Treat Your Energy Like
Your Bank Account Nobody is born with unlimited amounts of
energy, just like we're not given unlimited amounts of money. Treat your energy
like a bank account, balance "spending" with energy surplus, and
you won't be drained.
Science Says Change How You Use This Word to
Increase Productivity A word has the power to influence
your brain. Optimism has the ability to help lead to success, so through using
positive words in your day-to-day language, you can ease the difficulty of doing
them.
"Action" not "Task"

Tip of the Day

|
Sometimes it's not what you say that's important as much as it's what they feel
six months after the conversation. Being a good wordsmith is a skill, but
ensuring that what you say leaves the right impression long term is a true art
and one that is only reached by reflection and intention.
Just a Thought,
Gus
