I have purchased many skins from istyles and have always been satisfied. I like to change my skins often, so the fact that I can buy them affordably is a plus. I have never had an issue with quality either. Easy to install, good quality and a great price...what more can you ask for. give them a try.jonathan simon, United States

Product Test: Incase Backpack
This is the Incase Nylon Backpack. It may look like other back packs, but it is much different. First up, it is much lighter. There is more protection inside to help keep your electronics safe, too. The bag can hold a notebook computer with a screen up to seventeen inches. The inside is faux-fur lined to help protect the laptop as well as cell phone, iPad or whatever other electronics you use.
The bag weighs less than three pounds and has a lot of padding on it. It is big without the bulk. We bought it at Amazon.com for $59.64.
The design and extra padding makes it easier on your back. We gave it two thumbs up. Time Magazine also ranked it one of the top 25 back-to-school gadgets.

The blood orange has a flavor similar to a hybrid of a tangerine and pomelo. Its crimson interior is a result of a red pigment called anthocyanin, a powerful antioxidant that is not typically found in other citrus fruits. Anthocyanin is believed to neutralize free radicals in the body that are responsible for numerous ailments associated with aging.

|Molten Citrusy Elixir
|What happens when Katrina's deep dark rich chocolate collides with an inner molten core of taste bud tantalizing liquid caramel infused with the surprisingly complementary tang of blood orange? The chocoholic steals away to their closet in order to hoard all the goodness to themselves. Such was the case when I first tried this stellar bar, and let's be honest, it was impossible to eat just one square. Unlike Vosges' traditional solid bars studded with all sorts of nibbley yum yums -- easily breakable for portion control -- this aqueous caramely wonder doesn't break quite as easily, giving the indulger an even better justification for polishing off the whole thing in one sitting. Yes, you DO owe it to yourself. This confection is a true winner in every sense of the word!
|- Elizabeth Finfgeld
|Too Gooey for Me
|The taste was okay. But the caramel was just too gooey for me. I couldn't just break off a couple of squares and save the rest for later because the caramel was oozing all over. If you plan on eating the entire bar in one sitting, then this isn't too big a problem, just get a napkin. ;-)

|Dark Chocolate & Blood Orange Candy Bar
|Its Sweet & Sour in a good & bad way...the Blood Orange Carmel is a tad too sweet for the rather bitter dark chocolate. If you keep these bars in a too warm kitchen, it becomes a mess. I do enjoy most of these bars would be willing to give them another shot, when the weather is cooler
|- Jenny Roberts
|best ever!
|This is absolutely, hands down, my favorite Vosges bar. I love Campari so I had a pretty good idea that I'd like this bar but it blew me away. Yummy dark chocolate hiding a perfect blend of caramelly, buttery, salty, sweet, tangy goodness. Luxurious, intense, rich, decadent. I little messy/sticky, but that's a good thing in this case. Definitely a special treat.
|- meg t
|Great taste... more filling!
|The flavor combination of this bar is fabulous. What I don't like is the inconsistency I've had with this particular bar. Sometimes chocolate has filled in where the caramel should be, and let's face it- those of us who love caramel want there to be as much of it as possible in each bar!
|- Rebecca
|Delicious Gooey Mess
|Some of my favorite flavors in one bar. The blood orange could have been a little stronger, but I still enjoyed it very much. The bar was a gooey mess though. I like to enjoy my Vosges a little bit at a time, but couldn't break a piece off without caramel oozing and chocolate sliding. Which meant I had to share with my children. (I prefer to be selfish with my Vosges.)
|- Heidi H.
|Too tart
|The flavors sounded interesting, but I was disappointed. The blood orange, Campari, and burnt-sugar syrupy caramel create an unpleasantly sour, tart flavor. The dark chocolate is fantastic, but the gooey caramel hinders the bar far more than it helps.
|- Jonathan Gill
|Simply delicious!
|This is without doubt one of Vosges best bars. The balance of flavors is perfect and the combination caramel and dark chocolate, paired with the nuanced, subtle flavors of hibiscus and Campari create a confection that is too great to pass up!
|- Pooja
|Orange Heaven
|This bar has a light fruitiness in each bite, paired with a slightly bitter dark chocolate. Nicely balanced, wonderful aroma.
|- Rachel Landis
|So Wonderful!
|As a person who does NOT like Orange and Chocolate, I thought I would give this a try because of the caramel. Wow, my expectations were exceeded. Yes, this is a difficult bar to nibble and save, because of the caramel, but it converted me to a Blood Orange/Chocolate Lover. Thanks for another winning combination; I now have 5 "Favorite" chocolate bars, because I can't pick just one!
|- Sarah Manley
|Too much caramel
|I was disappointed because I could hardly taste the blood orange or the hibiscus. The caramel overpowered the blood orange too much. I could only taste a hint of the blood orange. I mostly tasted the caramel. Lastly, I couldn't taste the hibiscus flower at all. The chocolate itself is fine.
|- Christine
|Not bloody enough...
|I enjoyed this bar, it's gooey, citrusy, but I really could not discern the difference between a regular orange flavor, and a blood orange flavor, which I find to be a much tarter orange flavor than this. I just feel this one has been done before.

The Bureau of Land Management Price Field Office says that the Price Canyon Recreation Area will be closed for the season starting Nov. 1.
Due to weather related concerns, the water was shut off on Oct. 12 to prevent the water system from freezing and causing unnecessary repairs next spring.Â
Price Canyon Recreation Area may also be temporarily closed during the week of Oct. 21 for a prescribed fire burn if weather allows. This project is located in Price Canyon next to the Price Canyon Campground. The burn is approximately 200 acres and will take about two days to complete. The burn is being conducted to reduce wildfire risk to the Price Canyon Campground, restore ponderosa pine stands, and improve wildlife habitat. If you have any questions, you may call the Price Field Office at 435-636-3600.

Iroquois High School social studies teacher Mark Davison has forged strong connections through the years with his students and former students. That includes Mark O'Brien, an Iraq War veteran who suffered the loss of his right arm and right leg in combat but went on to become an inspiring motivational speaker and lecturer.
Now Davison, who is trying to recover after suffering from a severe case of pneumonia, is actually leaning on and learning from O'Brien in a situation where a student is really teaching his teacher.
Davison was hospitalized for months and was even in a coma as he struggled with pulmonary fibrosis which actually scarred his lungs. Now he is in rehabilitation and is also a candidate for a lung transplant at the Cleveland Clinic.
Davison says the rehab has actually been painful for him. But he recalls the experiences of what O'Brien endured. O'Brien's very positive outlook and success has served as a prime example for Davison to deal with his adversity.
Colleagues at Iroquois have arranged a benefit for Davis for this coming Saturday. It is sold out. But people can also contribute to help cover Davison's substantial medical and personal costs by going to http://www.indiegogo.com/markdavison.
Davison's main goal now is to return to the classroom. And he feels with the support of family, friends, and colleagues and the inspiration of Mark O'Brien he can accomplish that cherished goal.

VAT: Commission publishes guidelines to help businesses prepare for change of e-services rules Pubblicato il: 04/04/2014, Ultimo aggiornamento: 30/06/2015
The Commission published explanatory notes to help businesses prepare for the new VAT rules for telecom, broadcasting and electronic services which will enter into force in 2015.
From that date, VAT will be charged where the customer is based, rather than where the seller is, in the case of cross-border business-to-consumer transactions. The explanations published today focus on the "place of supply" implementing measures which apply across all Member States. This information will help businesses to prepare and to comply with the new tax rules from day one. The explanatory notes [1 MB] on the place of supply rules should be read together with the guide to the VAT One Stop Shop [167 KB] , which was published last year by the Commission.

You can't really go wrong. I always used high end Shoei's and Bell's for sportbikes, but wanted something for my dual sport. I don't really like mx helmets with goggles because I sweat too much and goggles fog up. This AFX is exactly what I was looking for. I've ridden it all over Colorado, Moab, and a trip from Colorado to Cali and back. I usually wear mediums and the small fits perfect. The chin strap ratchet make it easy to get on and off. The beak keeps out a decent amount of sun, but does catch the wind when I don't use my fairings. The internal shade is extremely useful and is just as good as sunglasses.

The College of Eastern Utah theatre department is in rehearsals for A Man for All Seasons by Robert Bolt set to run Feb. 5-10 (black Sunday) at 7:30 p.m. in the Geary Theatre.
The play tells the story of Sir Thomas More, who defies King Henry the VIII's desire to divorce Catherine of Aragon in order to marry Anne Boleyn. Thomas More's decision to stand up for his strong principles and beliefs places him at odds with the state that would have him simply "go along."
"Our production comes at a time when standing up for what we believe in isn't the most popular position to take," Director Corey Ewan said. "We're at a point that we have to take a stand with what we believe to be right versus what is easy, to quote Dumbledore in the new Harry Potter film. I am always fascinated to see to what lengths people are willing to go to, at the risk of losing everything to maintain their integrity. It seems today that integrity is becoming as extinct as the Dodo."
The play deals with some very heavy themes and yet there are moments of sweet comedy and tender emotions.
Eastern Utah Theatre has been fortunate to assemble a strong cast of extremely talented individuals. Todd Olsen, director of admissions and scholarships, is playing Sir Thomas More. He has some unique insight into playing with these ideas.
James Thompson and Rodney Scott, both teachers at Carbon High School, accepted the roles of Cardinal Wolsey and the Duke of Norfolk. Scott Westwood is playing the pivotal role of Thomas Cromwell along with Andrew Barrus as Master Richard Rich. Mitch Ewan plays King Henry VIII.
Elizabeth Miller and Sarah Jones will play the roles Lady Alice More and Lady Margaret More respectively. Casey Walker, Michael S. Johnson, Dale Flink, Will Blackburn, Randon Kerr and Mae Goss round out the cast.
"These people have made rehearsals a blast, I'm having a great time watching and directing them," said Ewan. "I am grateful for their willingness to play hard and to work even harder to make this a very memorable production. Rehearsals have become a type of fallout shelter from reality and boy we need it now more than ever."
The director hopes many will join them for the February production.
"We hope it will keep you talking and thinking about long after it has closed," Ewan concluded.

|Legislative Action Sought in Predatory Contracting
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 15 June 2011 06:04
An Ashe realtor has taken on the predatory pavers working the western part of the state, emailing the press, legislators and law enforcement, expressing frustration over the pavers skirting the law. Brad Collins attached news articles on from other areas about a Frank Small, a paver apparently calling on property owners in the High Country area
for a number of years. Collins wrote to legislators Jonathan Jordan and Dan Soucek saying, "Since contacting local law enforcement, the local District Attorney Jerry Wilson, the local SBI unit, and the NC Attorney General this week...no one plans to arrest Small or charge him with anything!" He said "I have contacted law enforcement in three other states which have all charged him, and he has pending court dates." Collins said that the problem is with a loop hole in the NC Contractor licensing law, allowing construction work costing under $30,000 with little regulation. He told the legislators "this can be fixed by establishing a Sub-Standard license. This means individuals performing work under $30,000 must form a corporation, submit NC and Federal tax numbers, proof of insurance, background check, be bonded, and be regulated by the NC licensing Board for General Contractors."
I asked the NC Attorney General's office about Small and was told that there was nothing eminent against him, Jennifer Canada saying that they have seen information linking Small as doing business with Platinum Paving which is in the process of prosecution, but she said Small is not a defendant. She said "We anticipate getting a default judgment and permanent injunction against Mr. Todd Whittaker d/b/a Platinum Paving later this summer." Numerous complaints were filed against him and that firm last summer, leading to a restraining order and to the AG office action. Canada said to "Please encourage other victims of Mr. Whittaker you may hear from to file complaints with us, we can include them in the court judgment and also report the transaction to revenue officials." She listed several other paving firms that are being prosecuted by the AG's office in the state. Law enforcement in the area report complaints about Frank Small, but that most appear to be civil matters, and their hands are tied by the legal loopholes. Sheriff James Williams in Ashe said such operators know "how to walk on the edge of the law." Bottom line—deal with contractors you know or can check thoroughly, and know you have three days to back out of any such contract.

Boxers always have someone in their corner, but Doug Collins will have someone special in his comfort space.
Collins will make his amateur boxing debut Saturday in the fourth annual New York State Amateur Boxing Qualifier at 6 p.m at the Watertown Fairgrounds Exhibition Hall.
He will be fighting to honor his friend, Trevor Robinson, who died in an automobile accident last September. George Knapp was charged with criminally negligent homicide Thursday in connection with the crash. Collins said that boxing has been an outlet for him to deal with his grief.
Collins, a senior at South Jefferson High School, said, Boxing has really helped me get over the loss of him. It has really made me stronger.
He started training two months after the passing of his friend. Collins is set to face an opponent from Niagara Falls in his first fight, and said that he is ready for a challenge. Collins said he has a simple goal in his fight that consist of three two-minute rounds.
Collins, from Lorraine, said, Id like to win, but I wont be upset if I dont. I want to go the distance. My opponent may be bigger, stronger and faster than me, but Ive got more heart from what Ive been through.
Collins got into boxing because he always wanted to try it and said that his time in the ring has helped him persevere.
All of the training through workouts and sparring help you push through everything, he said. You realize that you dont let anything stand in your way.
Collins also said that he couldnt have achieved his dream on his own. He thanked his sponsor, the Nu-Pier Restaurant in Sackets Harbor; Robinsons mother, Jeanette Robinson-Bishop; his coach; and fellow fighters Josh Brown, Jeff Wright, Tyler Gamage and Chris Bearrera.
Collins is not the only fighter with a story this weekend. Virginia-based fighter Ryan Adams will be competing, as well as Brown, of Sandy Creek, who has used boxing to make him a better person.
Josh ran into a bad spell of luck and ended up on parole, Watertown Amateur Boxing Club President John Pepe said. Hes been training really hard, he works two jobs and has a couple of babies. Boxing has turned his life around.
There also will be a number of Fort Drum soldiers fighting in the event. Even though some of the soldiers may be a part of the club only for a short time before deployment, Pepe said they make up a core part of the fighters and clamor for extra training.
Clubs from statewide, including Albany and Niagara Falls, and Canada, as well as the locally based Black River Boxing Academy, will participate in Saturdays matches. Pepe said that he was still getting calls about match slots. The winners of the fights will move onto further qualifying matches in Saratoga later in the summer.
Saturdays event will also include a public introduction of former WABC member and two-time Golden Gloves champion Gordy Griffith, who plans to run the Balmat-based Gouverneur Boxing Club that will open at a later date.
Tickets for the event are $10 general admission or $15 for ringside and are available by calling Pepe at 783-4980 or by visiting Nelsons Dry Cleaners or Kinney Drugs on Coffeen Street. Tickets will also be available at the door.

|Fires Destroy Two Ashe Homes This Week
|Written by Steve Frank
|Thursday, 26 September 2013 05:48
Firefighters from Ashe and Watauga Counties were dispatched to a structure fire in the early morning hours today in far eastern Ashe, a fire that totaled a log cabin. The 3:18am call came in as Danny Matkins woke to the 'popping' sound of what turned out be the fire in the living room,
then he then ran to a neighbors home to call 9-1-1 as the fire alarm sounded inside. The residence at 2836 Cranberry Springs Road near the Brownwood Road intersection had fire in the living room, arriving Fleetwood Fire units reporting a working fire in the rental home. Fleetwood called for backup from Todd, Deep Gap, and West Jefferson Fire departments, as well as Ashe Rescue, and found no one else in the rental cabin, listed as owned by Ronnie Cooper. Firefighters said there were no injuries in the fire or firefighting effort. Fire Marshal Bob Davis said that, so far, the cause is undetermined, but did start in the living room. He said the Red Cross has been called in to help Danny Matkins, who lost most everything.
Davis said he was still trying to determine the cause of a fire that did heavy damage to a large two-story house in Crumpler Tuesday night. New River and Jefferson firemen responded to 742 Wiley Gambill Road shortly after 8pm to find heavy smoke pouring from the timber frame home. Owner Bill Guy had been in a garage when the alarm sounded, and he ran to a neighbor's to report the fire, centered in the kitchen. Davis said the cedar sided house may also be a total loss due to heavy smoke damage throughout.

Obesity Overview
The foods we eat every day contribute to our well-being. Foods provide us with the nutrients we need for healthy bodies and the calories we need for energy. If we take in more calories than we burn, the extra food turns to fat and is stored in our bodies. If we overeat regularly, we gain weight, and if we continue to gain weight, we may become obese.
Obesity results from the accumulation of excess fat on the body. Obesity is considered a chronic (long-term) disease, like high blood pressure or diabetes. It has many serious long-term consequences for your health, and it is a leading cause of preventable deaths in the United States (with tobacco use and high blood pressure). Obesity is defined as having a body mass index (BMI) of greater than 30. The BMI is a measure of your weight relative to your height. See the Body Mass Index Calculator.
Obesity is an epidemic in the United States and in other developed countries. More than two-thirds of Americans are overweight, including at least one in five children. Nearly one-third are obese. Obesity is on the rise in our society because food is abundant and most of us are employed in positions that require little to no physical activity. On the bright side, recent data suggest that childhood obesity, while still high, may no longer be on the rise.

Mockingjay (The Hunger Games #3)by Suzanne Collins
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
Against all odds, Katniss Everdeen has survived the Hunger Games twice. But now that she's made it out of the bloody arena alive, she's still not safe. The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge. Who do they think should pay for the unrest? Katniss. And what's worse, President Snow has made it clear that no one else is safe either. Not Katniss's family, not her friends, not the people of District 12.
Powerful and haunting, this thrilling final installment of Suzanne Collins's groundbreaking The Hunger Games trilogy promises to be one of the most talked about books of the year.
"This concluding volume in Collins's Hunger Games trilogy accomplishes a rare feat, the last installment being the best yet, a beautifully orchestrated and intelligent novel that succeeds on every level. At the end of Catching Fire, Katniss had been dramatically rescued from the Quarter Quell games; her fellow tribute, Peeta, has presumably been taken prisoner by the Capitol. Now the rebels in District 13 want Katniss (who again narrates) to be the face of the revolution, a propaganda role she's reluctant to play. One of Collins's many achievements is skillfully showing how effective such a poster girl can be, with a scene in which Katniss visits the wounded, cameras rolling to capture (and retransmit) her genuine outrage at the way in which war victimizes even the noncombatants. Beyond the sharp social commentary and the nifty world building, there's a plot that doesn't quit: nearly every chapter ends in a reversal-of-fortune cliffhanger. Readers get to know characters better, including Katniss's sister and mother, and Plutarch Heavensbee, former Head Gamemaker, now rebel filmmaker, directing the circus he hopes will bring down the government, a coup possible precisely because the Capitol's residents are too pampered to mount a defense. 'In return for full bellies and entertainment,' he tells Katniss, explaining the Latin phrase , 'people had given up their political responsibilities and therefore their power.' Finally, there is the romantic intrigue involving Katniss, Peeta and Gale, which comes to a resolution that, while it will break some hearts, feels right. In short, there's something here for nearly every reader, all of it completely engrossing. Ages 12 – up. (Sept.)" Publishers Weekly (Copyright PWyxz LLC)
"[A]n entirely gripping read. In Katniss, Collins has crafted a heroine so fierce and tenacious that this reader will follow her anywhere." The Christian Science Monitor
"Here is some advice before sitting down with Mockingjay. Keep all the lights on and have tissues close by." Cleveland Plain Dealer
"Unfolding in Collins' engaging, intelligent prose and assembled into chapters that end with didn't-see-that-coming cliffhangers, this finale is every bit the pressure cooker of its forebears....[A] series conclusion that is nearly as shocking, and certainly every bit as original and thought provoking, as The Hunger Games." Los Angeles Times
The greatly anticipated final book in the New York Times bestselling Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins.
The Capitol is angry. The Capitol wants revenge.
Who do they think should pay for the unrest?
Katniss Everdeen.
The final book in The Hunger Games trilogy by Suzanne Collins will have hearts racing, pages turning, and everyone talking about one of the biggest and most talked-about books and authors in recent publishing history!!!!
About the Author

In the award-winning The Hunger Games and Catching Fire, Collins continues to explore the effects of war and violence on those coming of age.

What an awesome win at the US Open. I cried when he hugged his Dad. I don't cry often. Sometimes I cry when the GEICO lizard gets sad, but usually he's having a good laugh. It's rare when the Irish come in first at anything. If drinking earned medals, we'd kick everyone's ass. I think the Russians would give us a good run, but fuck you, Vladimir; we will give up our souls to win a drinking competition. We only won one medal in the Beijing Olympics and that was a boxer who probably wasn't even "officially" entered. Probably just a drunk Irish guy who got a weird look from some Chinese guy in a bar and started punching Chinese people 'til he accidentally won a gold medal.
And yes, I am admittedly a Tiger hater. I'd like to state my Tiger hating began pre-I slept with 900 women other than my wife and the one who works at the Waffle House. I don't care what he does off the course. My brother and I have argued for years over this because he is not a Tiger hater. He says Tiger plays with "passion." I say, "Yeah, whatever, Patrick. You can 'play with passion' and still not be a dick". Tiger never smiles, never laughs his ass off, is never accommodating to fans or the media, which he pathologically lies to. If I was a member of the press, I wouldn't even ask him questions anymore because 9 out of 10 answers are a lie.
"Are you hurt?"
"No, I'm fine."
Two days later, he's withdrawing from a tourney because he's hurt. If I was forced to ask him shit, then when I wrote my article, I'd put after each sentence–(could be a lie, don't blame me.)
It was nice to see Rory, a 22-year-old, who smiles, laughs and at least APPEARS to be having fun while kicking everyone's ass. Good for him. Rory ate it at the Masters like the French dude at the British Open but he stood there and answered every question and gave actual answers instead of whatever some bullshit "sports shrink" told him to say. I'm sure it's embarrassing to have a meltdown in front of the world. I'm embarrassed at my Mom's "Ladies League" when I miss a putt and they're all 80 and blasted by 9 a.m. He said he just wanted to go have beers with his friends. So would I after that meltdown. But that's what is fun about the Irish. We like a good drink (or 12) after extreme sadness or extreme happiness. Or really anytime, but more so in the extreme moments.
I do hope Tiger comes back. But only so Rory or Ricky or any other of the 20 somethings can kick his ass. For 15 years of acting like an asshole, I think 15 years of getting his ass handed to him would bring it back to even. And no matter what, I'm still rooting for Raymond Floyd. My brother doesn't see it, but Raymond is gonna make the comeback of the century and win Masters at age 60.

With our Certificate in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback, you can help patients gain control of their own health. Learn powerful mind-body intervention skills to help treat a host of medical issues that defy conventional treatment without side effects.
Saybrook University's Certificate in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback is designed to prepare you for certification from the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). Students must document access to biofeedback instrumentation including at least three modalities, and preferably access to neurofeedback instrumentation as well. The Certificate comprises three academic courses, two residential conferences, one graduate colloquium, and a capstone integrative essay.
Basic Training and Education in Biofeedback: This course provides a basic skill-set to conduct simple biofeedback interventions, along with knowledge about biofeedback concepts and approaches, and a familiarity with research-based applications of biofeedback to common medical and behavioral disorders. This course provides students with an introductory level of understanding helpful for engaging in biofeedback-based clinical practice and psychophysiological research in integrative health. This course introduces the most commonly used biofeedback instruments, the physiological systems they measure, and the applications of these biofeedback modalities to common medical and behavioral disorders. Students attend a two-day residential training, eight weeks of online discussion, and continued practice with video-conference supervision.
Intermediate Training and Education in Biofeedback: This course offers more advanced skills to conduct effective higher-level biofeedback interventions, along with additional knowledge about biofeedback concepts and approaches, and a more solid grounding in research on biofeedback. Students complete a two-day training and eight weeks of online learning, and continue practice with video-conference supervision.
Advanced Biofeedback/Neurofeedback Practicum: This course includes online contact with faculty and fellow students, directed readings, and research in a specialty area, as well as applied practice of biofeedback and/or neurofeedback with regular group-based supervision. Students will complete a capstone integrative essay during their Advanced Practicum class, summarizing their learning in this course sequence.
The tenth credit is a one-credit Graduate Colloquium course, continuing through the entire time the student is in the Certificate program. The student is assigned a mentor, who conducts the Graduate Colloquium and provides academic guidance and support.
Department of Mind-Body Medicine students already take a two-credit Graduate Colloquium and have an assigned mentor. They will not need to take this additional one-credit Graduate Colloquium. If you are a current student in the Department of Mind-Body Medicine or in another Saybrook degree program, talk with your faculty mentor about enrolling for this certificate.
The Certificate Program in Biofeedback and Neurofeedback provides an alternative for the individual who wishes to obtain a comprehensive introduction to biofeedback and neurofeedback, without undertaking an academic degree program. All training and didactic education is designed to follow the knowledge blueprint of the Biofeedback Certification International Alliance (BCIA). Students wishing to earn the certificate must document access to biofeedback instrumentation including at least three modalities, and preferably access to neurofeedback instrumentation as well. The certificate is a 10-credit program, including three academic courses, two residential conferences, one graduate colloquium, and an integrative capstone essay.

I was very excited about duel masters tournament so I stayed on it and waited to... 3:00 cet. I have been waiting for quakecon duel since the first announce about it and what I received? No games, 4 hours waiting on stream, 4 hours of sleeping (I am at work now), I so tired. The sadest thing is duel competition were taking place during the Carmack speech.

I keep returning to iStyles because they're the only people with a huge range of skins which you can also get in matte - and matte skins look so much better than glossy. There is a slight delay in delivery because I'm in the UK, but this is probably not due to iStyles but rather to the mail service. However the skins are worth the small wait and I will be back the next time I have a new device which needs skinning!Maryon Jeane, United Kingdom

The holiday season has come to a close and if you're like most people you've spent more than you should have. Overspending during this time of year is common, but it can cause a post-holiday financial hangover when you can't pay off your credit card balance. That's when your high-APR credit cards combined with your credit card balance equals huge interest payments each month.
There's a solution to your woes – if you have good credit, a balance transfer credit card will allow you to pay zero interest for 15-18 months. This buys you extra time to pay off your balance while saving you a lot of money in monthly interest fees. Some of these cards will even give you cash back on all your new purchases and extra intro bonuses.
To help out, we've put together a top 6 list of the best balance transfer credit cards for those with good credit:
Slate is our top contender because it features NO balance transfer fees – a big perk that can save you a lot of dough (these fees are usually 3-5% of the balance you transfer) – plus a 15-month 0% intro APR for balance transfers and purchases. The $0 balance transfer fee means when you transfer your balance from your current card to Slate you won't have to pay any fees whatsoever. The only caveat is that you have to make your transfer in the first 60 days, but since you're getting the card to transfer your balances as soon as possible this shouldn't be a problem. Combine this with the 0% APR period (for both balance transfers and new purchases) and no annual fee and you've got yourself a great card to help you pay off any holiday excesses.
City Simplicity's (a NextAdvisor advertiser) lengthy 21-month 0% intro APR for both balance transfers and purchases should give you plenty of time to pay off your balance in full. You can also take advantage of this intro APR for any new purchases you'd like to make. In addition there are no late fees, penalty rates or annual fees. There is a 3% balance transfer fee for this card, but it might be worth it, especially if you're carrying a large balance on your current high-interest credit card. The over 1.5 year interest-free period will give you the time you need to pay down the balance.
With a 15-month 0% APR on balance transfers and purchases, a great cash back program, a big intro bonus and no annual fee, this card is a strong choice. Not only can you transfer over your current balances and save money by paying no interest for 15 months, but you'll also get $100 cash back after spending $500 in the first 3 months. In addition you'll earn cash back on your purchases – 5% cash back on purchases in rotating quarterly categories and 1% cash back on everything else. What could be better than saving money on interest fees AND making money on new purchases PLUS a cash back bonus? There is a 3% balance transfer fee, but the $100 bonus and ongoing cash back will likely more than offset it.
Blue Cash Preferred Card from American Express
Combining a 15-month 0% intro APR on balance transfers and purchases with incredibly strong cash back rewards, the Blue Cash Preferred Card (a NextAdvisor advertiser) is a smart pick. Not only can you transfer your holiday (and non-holiday) purchases over to this card and pay no interest for 15 months, you'll also get incredibly generous cash back rewards on new purchases. You'll earn 6% cash back at supermarkets (on up to $6K per year in purchases), 3% at gas stations and select department stores (including J.C. Penney, Sears, Macy's and Nordstrom) and 1% on everything else. And it doesn't stop there – you'll also get $100 cash back after spending $1,000 in the first 3 months. The card does charge a 3% balance transfer fee and an annual fee of $75, but the $100 bonus and ongoing cash back will likely more than offset it. If you'd prefer a card that offers the same 0% intro APR on balance transfers and purchases and great cash back rewards without the annual fee, take a look at the Blue Cash Everyday Card from American Express.
Discover it – Balance Transfer
Just like its name says, the Discover it card was created with balance transfers in mind. You can take advantage of the 18-month 0% APR period for balance transfers to save some cash on interest payments. Plus, you'll earn cash back on new purchases; 5% cash back on up to $1,500 in purchases in quarterly rotating categories and 1% cash back on all other purchases. There is a balance transfer fee but just like with the Chase Freedom card it's entirely possible to pay this with the cash back you'll earn on new purchases. Together the cash back potential and long 18-month 0% APR (with very reasonable ongoing APR rates) make this a card that can both save you money and earn you money at the same time.
Can you say "crazy-low ongoing APR?" That what this card was built on – an 8% APR on purchases and balance transfers. Plus there are NO balance transfer fees which translates to saving a ton of cash when you transfer your existing balances to this card free of charge. In addition, there is no annual fee and cardholders can help to influence profit/loss decisions as well as participate in a type of profit sharing. Although there is no 0% intro APR period, if you're going to carry your balance for years instead of 15-18 months it's a terrific choice.

Thank you Stereophile! Cannot wait to hear the new mixes.
Stoked to be in the running for cool tunes!
a good start to the New Year
I'd like to see Holland included, but you can't have everything.
I could really use some Good Vibrations here.
if I could win this!!!!!!!!!
I always enter these contests and never win. I would be nice to win one once.
help me Rhonda...and Jon Iverson, too! Happy New Year everybody!
I am looking forward to these, I have two already and they are great (Surfin USA and Today). Nice to have great reissues of these essential albums.
I would love to add these remasters to my collection
Would be awesome to win this ... would love to have a re-mastered set of their work.
The current picture brings back memories of Dennis Wilson, an essential member of the group, who died far too young. The Beach Boys sans Dennis were never again able to remain attached to the beach/surf/sun culture. Dennis was for real.
Gotta get a new CD player for my Little Deuce Coupe!
The original Surfin' Safari!
