Gift Certificates--The New Cash
Gift certificates? Consult an ATM
Kahala Mall is offering, for the first holiday season in its history, gift certificates that may be purchased at automatic teller machines.
Gift certificates that were formerly sold at the Kahala Mall management office will instead be sold through the two American Savings Bank ATMs in the Macy's wing of the mall. The office won't sell them this year.
The certificates are valid, not only at all Kahala Mall stores, restaurants, and theaters, but also at Pearlridge Center.
They are offered in denominations of $10 or $25 denominations -- though Pearlridge gift certificates are available only in $25 denominations. They can be bought with a credit card or through one's debit card PIN number.
Both shopping centers are managed by MMI Realty Services Inc. and Kahala Mall management decided to go to this system after it was successfully introduced at Pearlridge.
"The accessibility of the ATM means that shoppers can buy mall gift certificates any time the mall is open," says MMI Regional Marketing Director Scott Creel. "They are no longer pigeonholed into making their gift certificate purchases between 8 a.m. and 5 p.m. Monday through Friday, with the added plus that they don't have to trek up to the management office."
Even simpler-- Go to Amazon and get a gift certificate.Click on The Season of Giving above.
Mobiles hope to be 'smart wallet'
Mobile phone are closer to becoming smart wallets, following agreement among mobile operators on an approach to near field communications (NFC).
NFC is a short-range wireless technology like RFID tags, which are used to track stock by retailers.
The tags inside phones could have personal information stored in them and so could act as car keys, money, tickets and travel cards.
Mobile firms representing 40% of the global mobile market back NFC.
Alex Sinclair, chief technology officer of the GSM Association, which represents the mobile industry, said: "Interoperability and standardisation are the fundamental requirements for mobile market success.
"NFC opens up a wide range of possibilities and we are committed to ensuring the mobile industry works together to realise its potential."
Two elements
There are two elements to NFC technology, which is sometimes called "contactless" applications - a tag, which is inside the phone and can store data and transmit it wirelessly, and a reader, which can access the information stored on tags.
A mobile equipped with NFC technology could, for example, buy a concert ticket over the phone which would then hold those details, together with the details of the phone user, on the tag inside the handset.
An RFID device at the concert would then "read" the concert ticket details on the tag when the phone is passed close to it.
NFC technology could also be used to exchange data between phones, such as photos and music.
Mobile phones are seen as powerful tools for NFC technology because they are able to download new pieces of information - from topping up a travel card, to new songs, ticket information and electronic keycard data etc.
'Sensible' move
Mike Roberts, principal analyst for Informa Telecoms and Mobile, said the move was a sensible one for mobile operators.
"Operators need to boost mobile voice revenues and need to ensure the mobile phone remains important to people.
"This is a significant step: NFC is a good technology because it fits into mobile phones very readily.
"It is low power and low cost. The only thing the mobie industry has to do is find something useful to do with the technology."
No timescale for the development of NFC technology has been given. Fourteen mobile network operators are working together to develop NFC applications.
They are Bouygues Telecom, China Mobile, Cingular Wireless, KPN, Mobilkom Austria, Orange, SFR, SK Telecom, Telefonica Móviles España, Telenor, TeliaSonera, TIM, Vodafone and 3.
The 14 firms are part of the GSM Association, which represents 700 mobile operators around the world.
* The number of people in the UK using their mobiles to access the internet is growing, the Mobile data association has reported.
A total of 40.7m users were recorded as having used their phones for downloads and browsing the mobile internet in the UK during the third quarter of 2006.
The total number of users recorded in July was 13m, which had increased to 14m by September.
Guyanese professor elected to CXC chairmanship
 |
Guyana-born Vice Chancellor (VC) of the University of the West Indies (UWI), Professor Eon Nigel Harris, has been elected Chairman of the Caribbean Examinations Council (CXC). A release from CXC said Harris, who was nominated at a special meeting of the council held in Jamaica on September 22, brings a wealth of experience in education to the body. He succeeds Professor Kenneth Hall. Harris was Dean and Senior Vice President for Academic Affairs at Morehouse School of Medicine in Atlanta, USA, prior to his return to the Caribbean in 2004. Harris graduated magna cum laude from Howard University with a degree in Chemistry and proceeded on a fellowship to Yale University, where he received a Master of Philosophy degree in Biochemistry. He earned his medical degree from the University of Pennsylvania, in three years, again graduating with honours. Harris then returned to the Caribbean and completed his residency in internal medicine at UWI's Mona campus, where he obtained his post-graduate degree, Doctor of Medicine. Harris is known internationally for his work as a Rheumatologist. In London, he along with colleagues Dr Graham Hughes and Dr Aziz Gharavi of the Hammersmith Hospital helped to diagnose a disorder called Antiphospholipid Syndrome and devised a diagnostic test (the anticardiolipin test) to identify it. Harris joined the University of Louisville, Kentucky, in 1987 and by 1993 became Professor of Medicine and Chief of the Division of Rheumatology. There he launched the Antiphospholipid Standardisation Laboratory which leads worldwide efforts in the standardisation of the anticardiolipin test and distributes these standards to over 500 laboratories worldwide. The laboratory currently operates from the Morehouse School of Medicine and continues to attract international fellows. Harris has published over 150 papers, editorials, reviews and chapters on the subject. He and his colleagues were awarded the Ceiba-Geigy Prize for their work. Harris's academic achievements and personal qualities have earned him national leadership positions in organizations including the Association of American Medical Colleges, the National Centre for Research Resources and the Association of Academic Health Centres. He has received many honours and awards, including the Centennial Award for Contributions to Medicine from the National Medical Association of America in 1995. | |

Steorn develops free energy technology
Issues challenge to the global scientific community
London, 18th August 2006: Steorn, an Irish technology development company, has today issued a challenge to the global scientific community to test Steorn’s free energy technology and publish the findings.
Steorn’s technology is based on the interaction of magnetic fields and allows the production of clean, free and constant energy. The technology can be applied to virtually all devices requiring energy, from cellular phones to cars.
Steorn has placed an advertisement in The Economist this week to attract the attention of the world’s leading scientists working in the field of experimental physics. From all the scientists who accept Steorn’s challenge, twelve will be invited to take part in a rigorous testing exercise to prove that Steorn’s technology creates free energy. The results will be published worldwide.
Sean McCarthy, CEO of Steorn, commented: “During the years of its development, our technology has been validated by various independent scientists and engineers. We are now seeking twelve of the most qualified and most cynical from the world’s scientific community to form an independent jury, test the technology in independent laboratories and publish their findings.
“We are under no illusions that there will be a lot of cynicism out there about our proposition, as it currently challenges one of the basic principles of physics. However, the implications of our technology go far beyond scientific curiosity: addressing many urgent global needs including security of energy supply and zero emission energy production. In order for these benefits to be achieved, we need the public validation and endorsement of the scientific community”.
“We’re playing our part in making that happen by throwing down the gauntlet with today’s announcement – now it’s over to the scientists to ensure that the real potential and benefits of our technology can be realised.”
Following the validation process, Steorn intends to license its technology to organisations within the energy sector. It will allow use of its technology royalty-free for certain purposes including water and rural electrification projects in third world countries, details to be announced later.
