Card issuers, processors, acquirers, and merchants in the U.S. can use the American Express Token Service to replace a payment card's primary account number (PAN) with a randomly generated token, which acts as an alternative or pseudo PAN. U.S. issuers including Amex itself are expected to be the first customers of the American Express Token Service, initially for in-app and NFC-based Apple Pay that launched last month. Tokens for Apple Pay are stored in a dedicated chip called a Secure Element (SE) on the iPhone 6 and iPhone 6 Plus. American Express delivers them to Apple through a secure network connection. Apple then sends them over the air to the SE. Individual devices are provisioned with one token, which is used for all point-of-sale and in-app purchases. A consumer would receive a different token for the same payment card if they want to use it in a second device.
American Express has also announced global availability of network specifications to support Host Card Emulation (HCE)-based mobile payments from Android handsets with NFC capabilities. For HCE-based payments, issuers download an applet to the handset's memory to connect the NFC controller to the POS terminal. For every payment at the point of sale, the applet emulates a card by requesting a PAN from a remote server managed by the issuer.
The applet could request a token instead of a PAN. In that case, American Express delivers the token to the issuer through a secure network connection. Issuers then send the token to the handset over the air. In HCE, different tokens are likely to be used for each transaction.
Tokens reduce a merchant's potential liability from damages linked to cyberattacks on POS systems or data centers, as well as losses from fraud for card-present and card-not-present sales. Tokens thwart thieves who steal them and encode a counterfeit magnetic-stripe card for purchases at the point of sale or input them at online checkout pages because authorization requests will be declined. Their security value also includes the fact that they can be limited to a specific merchant or a specific transaction type, or as is the case with Apple Pay, tied to a specific iPhone 6. Any other attempted use would trigger an authorization decline.
American Express Token Service is based on the EMVCo-based Payment Tokenization Specification and Technical Framework. It includes a vault where tokens are mapped to primary account numbers and then stored. Lifecycle management services are also available to suspend, resume, or delete tokens after they have been created. In addition, Amex also offers token authorization and payment data validation capabilities for card-issuing financial institutions.
Mike Matan is General Manager, Global Network Business at American Express in New York, (212) 640-0681, firstname.lastname@example.com, www.americanexpress.com.

ROBBERSON, TEXAS. Robberson was located on an unmarked private road just west of Farm Road 755 twenty miles northeast of Rio Grande City in northeastern Starr County. It was a dry-land farm community, and the post office was named for the local landowner-promoter. The settlement served as a post office for Santa Catarina, a mile east, from 1909 to 1918. In 1914 the town received its mail weekly. The 1948 highway maps located several scattered dwellings and one business in Robberson. The site was still identified on 1991 highway maps.

Progressive Farmer Contributor
Matt NcNany is an 18-year-old farmer from Harrisville, Pa., who has been raising and selling poultry and red meat products since elementary school.
His family always had a few head of cattle, and McNany got his love for farming from his dad, Doug. His entrepreneurial spirit first surfaced when he was 11.
"He came up with this idea to raise turkeys and sell them at Thanksgiving," says Lynna McNany, Matt's mother. So he did. "He took the money from his sales to buy his first four-wheeler."

Casting directors everywhere send out feelers for the "Japanese Andre the Giant."
Columbia Pictures has grabbed the US distribution rights for the film, to be written by 'The Hurt Locker' scribe Mark Boal. It's a regular Hurt Lockereunion.

Best News Bloopers of May 2014 Are Downright Hilarious [NSFW]
Let's be honest: the real reason to watch the news is to see the bloopers. We don't know when they'll happen, but when they do it's like winning the lottery.

While we're still not sure what Quentin Tarantino's next film will be, the director was at the Cannes Film Festival and revealed he's looking to revisit one of his previous films. The director told an audience at a press conference celebrating the 20th anniversary of the Cannes premiere of 'Pulp Fiction' that he's got about 90 minutes of unseen footage from 'Django Unchained' that he would like to adapt into a 4-hour/4-part cable miniseries.
It doesn't matter what season it is -- news bloopers are the year-round gift that keeps giving.

The moment David Letterman announced his retirement from 'The Late Show,' speculation began toward possible replacements, though very few of them were given to Letterman's 'Late Show'-following host Craig Ferguson. Stephen Colbert's quick acceptance of the gig left people questioning if Ferguson will remain with 'The Late Late Show', and it seems Ferguson has officially decided to step down at the end of the year.
Well, that was fast! Just one week after David Letterman dropped the 'Late Show' bombshell that he would retire in 2015, his replacement has officially been announced. Following early and decisive rumors, Stephen Colbert will officially leave behind Comedy Central's 'Colbert Report' to ascend the late-night throne as the new host of CBS' 'The Late Show.' You're welcome, nation!
Let's review the things that 'Tonight Show' host Jimmy Fallon loves. He loves stars and music and vintage things and trucks (that last one might not apply here) and he loves nostalgia and silliness and having some seriously good-natured fun with all of those things. Obviously, the man loves Stevie Nicks. Who doesn't?
Talk show host David Letterman announced his retirement during a taping of his show Thursday afternoon (April 3) in New York. REM's bassist Mike Mills, who will be appearing on the show tonight, tweeted the news.
Important question: who among you knew that 'Tonight Show' host and all-around funny guy Jimmy Fallon was also a skilled harmonica player? Has he been doing this for long? Does everyone know about this? Should we have already known about this? Somewhat related: who among you knew that Russell Crowe has a background in fronting badly-named rock bands?
If you ever make it to Sto-Vo-Kor, the Klingon heaven, there's a good chance you'll be chugging lots of Warnog.
We were a bit bummed to learn that 'Boardwalk Empire' showrunner Terence Winter had accepted a season 5 end to the HBO prohibition drama in order to develop his new 1970s New York rock drama with Bobby Cannavale, Mick Jagger and Martin Scorsese, but the proposed series just got a whole lot prettier. Olivia Wilde will return to TV for the new HBO period drama, but as whom, you ask?

We are considering running MS Office 2007 in ICT suite while keeping MS Office 2003 on our school laptops and teacher's PCs.
Does anyone know if there are any insurmountable technical issues involved in this setup ?
I've been told that running two sets of policies for two ms office apps might be a problem but I cant really see that our current policies for MS Office 2003 are really doing very much and we should be able to run MS Office 2007 in our ICT suite without any policies.

Kareiva: Consumption, Competitiveness and Conformity
Dasgupta, P.S., P.R. Ehrlich. 2013. Pervasive externalities at the population, consumption, and environment nexus. Science 2013 Apr 19; 340(6130):324-8 doi: 10.1126/science.1224664
I give a lot of public talks about the future of conservation and always do my best to paint an optimistic vision.
Inevitably, someone in the audience raises their hand and says, isn't the real problem consumption and aren't we doomed to an environmental collapse because of our patterns of ever-expanding consumption? I always admit consumption is a big issue, emphasizing it is not that we consume, but what we consume, and I warn about that preaching about consumption can be a turn-off. But I have not been able to frame a really strong answer.
In a recent article, Partha Dasgupta and Paul Ehrlich give me the seeds of a stronger argument.
They emphasize that two of the strongest universal human traits are competitiveness and conformity. We conform because we strive to find ways to relate to one another — after all we are a tribal species. And competitive consumption has been noted in almost all societies — rich and poor.
It is just that as wealth accumulates, the global impact of competitive consumption also grows. All true. But those same traits can also provide the momentum for change and improvement. Just think of the students at Simon Fraser University in Vancouver, Canada, who chided Chinese couples to not serve shark fin soup at their weddings (a traditional symbol of prosperity) with the poster campaign that labeled shark fin soup as "so 80's."

bonded T1A bonded T1 (also called DS1) is two or more T1s that have been joined (bonded) together to increase bandwidth. A full T1 provides approximately 1.5Mbps or 24 individual channels each of which supports 64Kbit per second, where two bonded T1s provide 3Mbps or 46 channels. Two bonded T1s allow you to use the full bandwidth of 3Mbps where two individual T1s can still only use a maximum of 1.5Mbps at one time. To be bonded the T1 must run into the same router at the end, meaning they must run to the same ISP. Bonded T1s can use MPPP.

Volume-outcome association in bariatric surgery: a systematic review.
ABSTRACT To systematically examine the association between annual hospital and surgeon case volume and patient outcomes in bariatric surgery.
Bariatric surgery remains a technically demanding field with significant risk for morbidity and mortality. To mitigate this risk, minimum annual hospital and surgeon case volume requirements are being set and certain hospitals are being designated as "Bariatric Surgery Centers of Excellence." The effects of these interventions on patient outcomes remain unclear.
A comprehensive systematic review on volume-outcome association in bariatric surgery was conducted by searching MEDLINE, Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, and Evidence Based Medicine Reviews databases. Abstracts of identified articles were reviewed and pertinent full-text versions were retrieved. Manual search of bibliographies was performed and relevant studies were retrieved. Methodological quality assessment and data extraction were completed in a systematic fashion. Pooling of results was not feasible due to the heterogeneity of the studies. A qualitative summary of results is presented.
From a total of 2928 unique citations, 24 studies involving a total of 458,032 patients were selected for review. Two studies were prospective cohorts (level of evidence [LOE] 1), 3 were retrospective cohorts (LOE 3), 2 were retrospective case controls (LOE 3), and 17 were retrospective case series (LOE 4). The overall methodological quality of the reviewed studies was fair. A positive association between annual surgeon volume and patient outcomes was reported in 11 of 13 studies. A positive association between annual hospital volume and patient outcomes was reported in 14 of 17 studies.
There is strong evidence of improved patient outcomes in the hands of high-volume surgeons and high-volume centers. This study supports the concept of "Bariatric Surgery Center of Excellence" accreditation; however, future research into the quality of care characteristics of successful bariatric programs is recommended. Understanding the characteristics of high-volume surgeons, which lead to improved patient outcomes, also requires further investigation.

ABSTRACT: The relationship between volume and outcomes in bariatric surgery is well established in the literature. However, the analyses were performed primarily in the open surgery era and in the absence of national accreditation. The recent Metabolic Bariatric Surgery Accreditation and Quality Improvement Program proposed an annual threshold volume of 50 stapling cases. This study aimed to examine the effect of volume and accreditation on surgical outcomes for bariatric surgery in this laparoscopic era. The Nationwide Inpatient Sample was used for analysis of the outcomes experienced by morbidly obese patients who underwent an elective laparoscopic stapling bariatric surgical procedure between 2006 and 2010. In this analysis, low-volume centers (LVC < 50 stapling cases/year) were compared with high-volume centers (HVC ≥ 50 stapling cases/year). Multivariate analysis was performed to examine risk-adjusted serious morbidity and in-hospital mortality between the LVCs and HVCs. Additionally, within the HVC group, risk-adjusted outcomes of accredited versus nonaccredited centers were examined. Between 2006 and 2010, 277,760 laparoscopic stapling bariatric procedures were performed, with 85 % of the cases managed at HVCs. The mean number of laparoscopic stapling cases managed per year was 17 ± 14 at LVCs and 144 ± 117 at HVCs. The in-hospital mortality was higher at LVCs (0.17 %) than at HVCs (0.07 %). Multivariate analysis showed that laparoscopic stapling procedures performed at LVCs had higher rates of mortality than those performed at HVCs [odds ratio (OR) 2.5; 95 % confidence interval (CI) 1.3-4.8; p < 0.01] as well as higher rates of serious morbidity (OR 1.2; 95 % CI 1.1-1.4; p < 0.01). The in-hospital mortality rate at nonaccredited HVCs was 0.22 % compared with 0.06 % at accredited HVCs. Multivariate analysis showed that nonaccredited centers had higher rates of mortality than accredited centers (OR 3.6; 95 % CI 1.5-8.3; p < 0.01) but lower rates of serious morbidity (OR 0.8; 95 % CI 0.7-0.9; p < 0.01). In this era of laparoscopy, hospitals managing more than 50 laparoscopic stapling cases per year have improved outcomes. However, nonaccredited HVCs have outcomes similar to those of LVCs. Therefore, the impact of accreditation on outcomes may be greater than that of volume.Surgical Endoscopy 08/2013; · 3.43 Impact Factor
Article: Multifactorial Analysis of the Learning Curve for Totally Robotic Roux-en-Y Gastric Bypass for Morbid Obesity.[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass is one of the most commonly performed bariatric operation worldwide for the surgical management of obesity. Totally robotic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (TR-RYGBP) has been considered to be a better approach by some groups especially early in a surgeon's experience. However, the learning curve associated with TR-RYGBP has been poorly evaluated yet. The aim of this study was to evaluate the learning curve of patients who underwent TR-RYGBP. This is a prospective study of 154 first consecutive patients undergoing TR-RYGBP to analyze the influence of surgeon experience, bedside first assistant, and patient factors on operative time and postoperative complications. To give a comprehensive view of success related to the learning process, a single hybrid variable was generated. Multivariate analysis predicted the risk factors for complications and operative time. A risk-adjusted cumulative sum analysis estimated the learning curve. The learning curve for TR-RYGBP was 84 cases. Case rank and first assistant level were independent predictors of total operative time. Overall 30-day postoperative morbidity rate was 33.1 % and decreased over time. Surgeon experience (OR 2.6; CI 95 [1.290 to 5.479]; p = 0.0081) and first assistant level (OR 2.42; CI 95 [1.197 to 4.895]; p = 0.0139) remained independent predictors of composite event (operative time and complications). This study identifed criteria that should be assessed in future studies about TR-RYGBP. Both surgeon experience and bedside first assistant level affected operative duration, but surgeon experience was the most significant factor in reducing complication rates.Obesity Surgery 07/2013; · 3.10 Impact Factor

Couple of things before I present the Red Sox First Two Months Report Card (terrible title I know, but better than 'A Report Card for a Little More than a Quarter of the Season but Not Yet A Third')…
Grades are based on expectation heading into 2009. If Jason Bay had the same stats as Jason Varitek he'd probably be looking at a C-/D+, for example.
And all stats are through 5/31…
Jason Bay (A)
Are we up to 98 cents on the dollar in 'The Trade'? Think the Dodgers might return a call from Theo if he was offering Bay for Manny straight up?
I'd imagine Bay would sign sometime before the season is over (of course I don't know this, but it makes way too much sense for all parties involved for it NOT to happen). Figure, what, five years for $80 million? Even if this fast start is a little flukish (his 2009 slugging percentage is 58 points higher than any other season) his .280-30-100 established level would make that contract pretty manageable.
Kevin Youkilis (A)
Two questions:
1. Is there another player in the American League that you would trade straight up for Youkilis (not in all of baseball—you would have to go with Pujols) for the rest of the season? Maybe Mauer? If there was no baggage attached to A-Rod you'd have to bite, I guess, but I can't think of anyone else.
2. Who plays Youkilis in the movie version of Moneyball? I can sort of see Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Ramon Ramirez (A)
Anyone else miss Coco and his .399 slugging percentage? Clearly Ellsbury is at the very, very worst a wash with Crisp, so basically Ramirez is house money. It'll be interesting to see if his level of performance can hold up the entire season, his past would indicate that he might even be better the rest of the way (this has been his worst K/BB ratio of his career). We'll give him a mulligan for Saturday and leave him at an A.
Dustin Pedroia (A-)
OK, the homers are way down and that is a concern. But he's on pace to walk nearly 90 times (he walked 97 times in 2007 and 2008 combined), match last season's total of 213 hits, score 127 runs and steal 24 bases. He's been every bit as valuable as he was last season, and if he were on another AL team he'd be a perfectly acceptable answer to my previous question about Youkilis (and no, not the Moneyball one. Though I'm starting to think that Philip Seymour Hoffman would be Sofia Coppola-level bad as Youkilis. He's in his 40s and has done nothing in his career that would lead you to think that he could play an athlete. So the search continues.)
Mike Lowell (B+)
I wrote this guy off after last season. Truth be told I thought Ortiz was a much better bounce-back candidate. He'll probably slow down some but a .280-20-90 season could easily happen. Is it possible that Mike Lowell has been the best Red Sox player in the Hanley Ramirez trade?
Manny Delcarmen (B)
I'm not so sure I'd make that Nick Johnson trade. For me Delcarmen has been the second-best pitcher on the staff this season (after Ramirez). Sure, he walks too many guys, but he's always around a K an inning and is really tough to hit (179 hits allowed in 202.1 career innings). I don't know, I get that Johnson is off to a nice start, but something tells me that Delcarmen may appear in more games over the next three seasons.
Jonathan Papelbon (B)
Decent ERA and is on pace for 45 saves. Papelbon has been fine, a top 10 closer, but…
Through Saturday his K/BB rate was 2.27, which would be by far the worst during his tenure as closer. The flags aren't red yet, but things just seem a little off.
Combined walks and home runs allowed in 2008 (69.1 innings): 12
Combined walks and home runs allowed in 2009 (22 innings): 15
Hideki Okajima (B)
Maybe should have graded him a little higher. His April wasn't as bad as the stats would lead you to think (he got roughed up just twice in 12 appearances, which killed his ERA 5.59 for the month). And he didn't give up a run in May.
Jason Varitek (B)
I think the Pink Hats should maybe slow down just a little with the victory lap on this one. Sure, Varitek has hit 10 homers, but let's be honest: that is all that he has done offensively. He's a bad month away from having a .230 average with a .300 OBP at the All-Star Break. But he has been absolutely a positive to this point, and maybe he ends up with 18-20 HRs and a .240 average. Though all I heard and read the entire offseason was that the mere presence of The Captain behind the plate makes the pitchers better. Well, I guess if he were gone Lester would have a 10.00 ERA and Dice-K would need 350 pitches to get through five innings.
(Sorry, just watched Jalen Rose make perhaps the dopiest point in ESPN history. Orlando just finished off the Cavs and Rose was asked if the NBA was disappointed that we wouldn't get LeBron vs. Kobe. Nope, said Jalen. And why?
"Don't forget, Dwight Howard led the All-Star voting with nearly three million votes," Rose said, one eye looking nervously off camera as David Stern applied the duct tape to Ray Jackson and Jimmy King. "He's a very popular player."
I don't know, Jalen, but it's possible that the reason Howard finished with so many votes was that the Eastern Conference center ballot options were as thin as the lyrical content on any Winger album (though I hold a soft spot for "Headed for a Heartbreak"). Put it this way: Samuel Dalembert finished second in the voting. Lakers in six are the pick here.)
Tim Wakefield (B)
Three weeks ago Wakefield was 4-1 with a 2.92 ERA. Now he's 6-3 with a 4.55 ERA. And I'm sure he'll have at least another terrific month and another lousy stretch or two and wind up 15-11 or so with a 4.55 ERA. When you look at his career 15 years from now it'll fit right in with most of his seasons with Boston. Of course, Wakefield will probably still be pitching at that point.
Jacoby Ellsbury (B-)
This is the highest grade I can give an outfielder with a .377 slugging percentage. If Ellsbury continues to combine zero power with a terrible walk rate (10 in his first 219 plate appearances) he'll have to hit at least .300 to remain a useful offensive player.
Nick Green (B-)
Tom Watson never won the PGA Championship. Neither did Arnold Palmer. Pete Sampras and Jimmy Connors were shut out at the French Open. Bruce Springsteen has never had a No. 1 single (and I am not counting "We are the World", if only because that would also give Dan Ackroyd and Marlon Jackson a No. 1 single).
And Theo Epstein can't find a shortstop.
(Probably he would've kept Hanley, in his defense.)
Now we know Nick Green isn't the long-term answer. There is a reason why he's 30 and nobody had ever heard of him two months ago (and it wasn't because Barbara Hershey shot him in a hotel room 15 years ago). But maybe he can hit .280 this season?
Takashi Saito (B-)
Similar to Okajima—slow start with a strong May (1.80 ERA, .243 slugging percentage against). Would anyone feel uncomfortable with Saito as the closer for a month if Papelbon were injured?
J.D. Drew (C+)
They don't, of course, but if salaries were kept private and no one knew that J.D. Drew was the highest-paid player on the Red Sox I suspect everyone would be okay with him, right? He's not great, clearly he'll never come close to the massive promise he showed early in his career (that great start in 1998, the 1.027 OPS season as a 25-year-old in 2001). But has he been even close to the disaster many thought he would be here? You're going to get somewhere in the .280-.290 range with an OPB in the .400 range. He has been brutal the last couple of weeks, though.
Justin Masterson (C+)
I think if Justin Masterson was given a spot in the Red Sox rotation for an entire season he wins 15 games. Of course, I saw "City Slickers II" in the theatre four times, so I'm not sure I have credibility on any issue.
Josh Beckett (C)
An F for April (7.22 ERA) and an A for May (2.38 ERA) gets us to a C for Beckett.
What grade would you give for Beckett's career with the Red Sox to this point? Here are the numbers (regular season): 53-30, 4.16 ERA, two complete games, no shutouts and a 1.235 WHIP in 642. 1 innings.
Not terrible but a little disappointing. I think those are good numbers for a No. 2 starter, but no one had ideas of Beckett as a No. 2 when they made that trade. If the Sox hadn't made the postseason in the last three years I think I'd give Beckett a C+, maybe a B minus. But the playoff stuff in 2007 (4-0, 1.20 ERA) moves him to a solid B, I think.
Brad Penny (C)
The idea that Penny is trade bait is sort of true, I guess, but I can't imagine that they will get anything back of real value. I know he's pitched okay the last few times out but the whole picture is not promising. A WHIP of 1.60 (after a 1.62 last season) with a 5.63 ERA? Maybe Theo'll find some Single-A prospect that a team has given up on.
Jon Lester (D+)
The only thing that would really scare you is anything health-related, and there is nothing that would lead you there at this point (he's third in the AL in strikeouts). I bet he ends the season with around 16 wins, 230 Ks and an ERA around 4.
Rocco Baldelli (D)
I had written a whole thing about Rocco on NESN and WEEI next year before I realized that he's only 27 years old. How is that possible? I had him pegged for 30 at least.
Javier Lopez (F)
Is there an athlete in any of the four professional sports with less chance of having a movie made about their life? Totally and completely uninspiring?
(Though I'll admit I could see a remake of "I Now Pronounce You Chuck and Larry" with Javier and Jim Corsi.)
Daisuke Matsuzaka (F)
Opponents are hitting .384 vs. Dice-K in 2009. In the last 50 years only three players have hit better than .384 for a season (George Brett, Rod Carew and Tony Gwynn).
I knew he was lucky last season and expected him to take a step back in 2009, but I was thinking maybe 15-10 with a 4.30 ERA. Of course as we all know the rest of the year is gravy after the WBC, so…
David Ortiz (F)
Moving Ortiz from third to sixth in the lineup is the baseball equivalent of moving a sitcom in its eighth season from Tuesday to Friday. Maybe you get a quick pop in the ratings but after a few weeks all you're left with are a wacky neighbor and a guest appearance from Tim Conway as the clueless boss.
Of the 178 qualified hitters in MLB, Ortiz ranks 174th in slugging, 165th in OBP and 177th in batting average. The only Red Sox numbers in recent years that are even close are the ones produced by Pedroia during his call up in 2006, a 31-game stretch that had most people wondering if this guy was simply overmatched by big-league pitching (another decent comp is actually someone I had forgotten about--J.T. Snow in 2006, but in way fewer plate appearances). Of course what worries you about Ortiz is that there has been really no indication that he's going to turn this around. Since the third game of the season his peak batting average has been .238. Would it shock anyone if he weren't back next season, a notion that would have been unthinkable 18 months ago?

Later that day, the same man approached the girl at a fifth-grade awards ceremony they both were attending. The man, who was at the school for his son's awards ceremony, told police he honked at her because he thought she was beautiful, but that he didn't know how old she was.

Nov. 11
Expensive taste
2 p.m. — 600 block of Avenida del Norte. Burglary. A woman reported she was out of the house between 9 a.m. and 2 p.m. and had locked the house when she left. When she returned, she noticed someone had opened the rear bedroom window forcibly and removed jewelry from the top of her dresser. She estimated the total value of the missing items — a diamond-encrusted dress watch, a necklace with three pendants containing sapphires and diamonds and an heirloom ring with diamonds and onyx — at $5,800. She said she had no idea who would have taken the items. The deputy noted many other pieces of jewelry were on display and in the box where the women said the missing items had been kept. The deputy added, "It appeared the subject(s) had an eye for the expensive jewelry and left the inexpensive items behind."

Oriental Furniture unites customers with a vast online inventory of authentic Japanese, Chinese, and Thai home furnishings. Peruse their collection of Chinese art furniture items such as the ladies tea-time display table featuring dark lacquered trim and traditional artwork from the Song dynasty ($129), or check out a variety of room dividers and accent lamps to divide and illuminate living spaces. Close off room corners with a six-foot-tall window-pane shoji screen ($79), choosing from six natural colors to complement the existing hues of your library and provide ample privacy for changing into smoking jackets. Groupon holders can also invite a figure of compassion into their homes by opting for a 12" handmade Kwan Yin statue. With its head bowed in a peaceful and reflective manner, the Kwan Yin statue encourages onlookers to reflect on their relationships and to perform compassionate acts not only for others, but also for themselves.
Dream On stuffs its 10,000-square-foot store with sturdy futons and more than 30 types of cushy mattresses. Wood whisperers can finish an Ash L full-futon frame in six different shades ($249), helping it match your existing chairs, tables, and toothpick models of San Francisco. Add a full-size futon mattress made from cotton ($129–$399) or high-performance foam ($349–$699) to cushion tushes as they recline and a full-size cover ($39.99–$99.99) to defend cushions against stains. All futons must be assembled by the customer or their staff of human-size allen wrenches.
Renaissance Framing Gallery revivifies worn art and frames using careful, artisanal restoration techniques. Employ skilled framesmiths to enshrine a memory-encrusted jersey ($250) or diploma ($115), or have them carefully restore an 8"x10" oil painting ($150) or the gold-leaf frame surrounding it ($85 per hour including materials). Before and after photos show how restoration services make the Dark Ages skies brighter, Victorian skin alabastier, and dramatic gilds more dramatically gilt.
At Abodeon, functionality and fashion happily coincide. That's because the curators, husband and wife team Dale and Terri Anderson, call on their extensive art and design backgrounds to stock their store. The result is a bounty of vintage and current housewares that aren't just pretty little things, but play an important role in whatever space they inhabit. Vintage lounge chairs mingle with teak salad sets and tree-shaped pepper mills, creating a showroom that inspires homeowners' imaginations like an attic door that says "Monsterworld." The Andersons constantly replenish their store with vintage finds and housewares from local and international designers, allowing clients to come back to a new selection with every visit.
Louis W. Mian cloaks counters, vanities, and fireplaces in flat, shiny garments made from different types of natural stone and tile. Shoppers can visit the showroom to seek out inspiration from artful displays of stone furniture or to arm themselves with hundreds of removable sample boards to beat back the Tupperware gremlins living inside their kitchen cabinets. All staff members have experience with natural stone and can help counter coveters pick from more than 200 material options, including 1.25" thick white Carrara marble ($39/sq. ft.), 1.23" thick absolute black granite ($45/sq. ft.), and week-old pizza dough. Prices for custom jobs vary, but cutting and materials for a countertop, vanity top, or fireplace usually costs around $29 to $50 per square foot.

Publisher's Description
Who am I? Why am I here? Where am I going? Familiar questions in our day and age. But has our search for answers led us too far in the wrong direction: away from our true position in Christ and toward a dangerous emphasis on self?
Recent decades have seen the rise of a powerful and influential movement within the church. Identified by labels such as "self-image," "self-esteem," "self-worth," and "self-love," this movement has one common denominator--the emphasis on self. Regardless of religious persuasion, everyone seems to be fighting what they perceive to be a shared enemy: low self-esteem.
Now well-known biblical counselor and noted author Jay Adams brings much-needed clarification to the area of self-esteem and offers the church and every believer a truly biblical view of self.
Author Bio
Product Reviews
K5 Stars Out Of 5November 5, 2007KA fantastic, must-read on a controversial subject. A search tonight on CBD showed 58 books on self-esteem for the Christian, most about how to get MORE self esteem. Jay Adams does a brilliant job of handling the scriptures, and shows the fallacy of SELF-esteem, instead, drawing a pattern for GOD-esteem. This book's strong points are its use of scripture and its application. An enjoyable, though convicting read, this is definitely one that won't gather dust on the bookshelf. A MUST have tool for those in truly BIBLICAL counseling. A warning: this book will offend those with the false notion that the scriptures and psychology are somehow compatible. (But if you are the type of person who thinks that, you should read it anyway. It'll challenge you, and that's good for all of us.)
