STELLAR SOLAR RECEIVES FIRST NO-FEE PERMIT FOR RESIDENTIAL SOLAR FROM THE CITY OF ENCINITAS

The innovative no-fee program was launched to accelerate the use of renewable energy

Encinitas, CA  (Sharewellnewswire.com) August 16 2012 -  Stellar Solar, one of San Diego’s leading commercial and residential solar integrators is the first Solar Installer to receive a no-fee solar permit from the City of Encinitas. The permit will be used to install a 4.6kW system on Santa Fe Drive in Encinitas.

In an effort to promote sustainability, the city of Encinitas has rolled out a one-year pilot program that waives or reduces permit fees for energy-efficient projects, including:

• Solar Photovoltaic (PV) systems
• Solar water heating systems
• Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE)
• Clean Natural Gas (CNG) home refueling systems
  

“We have already seen Encinitas homeowners becoming more interested in going solar and that’s usually all it takes for us to demonstrate the benefits of going solar for most homeowners,” said Michael Powers, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Stellar Solar. He added, “There are so many affordable solar financing options available now , any opportunity to sit down and explain the program will convince most homeowners of the benefits. Once homeowners get the facts, they see it actually costs less to produce your own power using solar panels, compared to buying it from the power company.”

Kerry Kusiak, Senior Planner for the City of Encinitas added, “The City of Encinitas is very excited to see this program get off to such a fast start. The primary goal of the program is to speed up the adoption of renewable energy among Encinitas residents. If our program makes more people take a look at solar or electric vehicles, we trust that companies like Stellar Solar will take it from there and educate them further on their options.”

Stellar Solar offers free solar site evaluations to home and business owners throughout San Diego County.

Saving NFL Football Players Dreams - Todd Stofka Football Performance Psychology

Luck is what happens when preparation meets opportunity.

I always admire people and athletes especially NFL players who go for their dreams says, Todd Stofka, The Sports Hypnotist At Philly Hypnosis Human Performance http://www.thebestweightlosssolution.com/sports-psychology-football/. We are about winning the mental game and making opportunities happen.

Preseason training camp at the Philadelphia Eagles is where you get to show if you have what it takes to make the team. If you don't make the team for most players those dreams of playing for an NFL team like the Philadelphia Eagles begin to fly away.

Three future players hoping to make the team are possibly on the bubble and in jeopardy of losing their dream. After the first preseason game, Mike Kafka, Demetress Bell, and Jaiquawn Jarrett were identified as, "not playing up to their potential."

We know at Philly Hypnosis Sports Performance Psychology that 90% of football is mental, the other half is physical. Without having the right mental framework, getting on the team and staying there is hard, failing to attain your dream is even harder.

Mental training/sports psychology dream saving offer:

We will work with Mike Kafka, Demetress Bell, and Jaiquawn Jarrett and any other Eagle players, who want the sports performance edge. This edge is not just to help make the cut; it is designed to create peak performance.

We have helped other football players and teams with these solutions and more:

a. Team and Individual Execution - Clearing the mind, recreating winning confidence, executing plays as a single unit, creating peak performance in each individual position and doing so under pressure. My NFL, college and high school players have scored more and held their opponents to fewer points.

b. Offense - Knowing the line can fire off knocking back opponents, quarterbacks, who can lead and use peripheral vision to see the whole field while keeping their body relaxed, running backs, who can run through brick walls and cut on a dime, receivers, who can catch balls like they're magnetically attached to them.

c. Defense - Confidence to shut down the opponent's offense at any time and stay out of penalty trouble. Improving reaction time and being able to see the whole offense in one view, then narrow down to execute their role. Steal the ball like a thief.

d. Kicking - Being confident and aggressive under pressure and putting the ball through the uprights. Punters, who are getting the ball off and getting it to a spot that minimizes the return.

d. Injury - Recovering from injury or the fear of injury. Helping players think and play strong and healthy vs. injured and out of the game.

e. Leadership skills -- Creating confident team leaders.

We create solutions to these Common problems athletes and teams experience. Make your dream a reality.

At Philly Hypnosis Sports Performance we help top NFL players and other athletes win the mental game of their sport to succeed by creating core confidence, the ability to release mistakes, the ability to focus on the correct thought for the moment and the ability to create a winning belief inside to produce "in the zone" results. We have helped hundreds of athletes jack up their game using The Stofka Method.

HydroPeptide’s Even Out Pigment Corrector Effectively Lightens All Types of Hyperpigmentation with Safe Substitutes for Hydroquinone

HydroPeptide's Even Out Brightening Pigment Corrector fades sun damage, age spots, acne scars and pregnancy mask with five corrective ingredients, including the patented Beta White (β White) peptide.

Issaquah, Wash(SharewellNewswire.com) August 14, 2012  -  According to the Kline report, hyperpigmentation is a serious skin care concern, second only to anti-aging.  HydroPeptide, the brand famous for replacing harsh ingredients with over 21 different clinical levels of peptides – protein fragments recognizable by the skin as building blocks that strengthen and nourish – addresses this concern by creating a safe and effective alternative to hydroquinone-based discoloration treatments.  HydroPeptide's Even Out Skin Brightening Pigment corrector is the first hyperpigmentation serum to promote a more even complexion thanks to five spot correcting actives with complete safety profiles – including the non-irritating, newly discovered substitutes for hydroquinone – the patented β White peptide and Chromabright.  

Even Out is a dark spot corrector featuring powerful actives that deliver results without negative side effects.  Chromabright is a new brightening active that safely inhibits tyrosinase activity – the key determinant of the skin darkening effect of melanin production.  In clinical tests Chromabright exhibited a depigmenting effect comparable to that of hydroquinone, minus the risk of skin irritation.  The β White peptide reduces overall skin pigmentation, including inconsistencies in tone resulting from acne scars and pregnancy mask, by inhibiting melanin production-induced discoloration.   An antioxidant blend of Vitamins C and E, green tea and resveratrol maintain skin's health and consistent tone over the long term by reducing inflammation and activating sirtuins, a class of proteins that determine cell lifespan.  Elizabeth Mitchell, Los Angeles-based beauty writer for SheKnows.com, explains how Even Out fits into your skin care routine.  

 

"Simply apply a quarter teaspoon of HydroPeptide's Even Out Brightening Pigment Corrector over face, neck and decollete area after cleansing and before anti-aging serum, both in the morning and evening," advises Mitchell, who says post-summer hyperpigmentation is a concern of hers in sunny California. "It's the easiest regimen to fade imperfections and score sexy, even skin!"

 

Even Out is retailed as a maintenance treatment and is a key component of the HydroPeptide Brightening Facial, offered as a high-result option at prestige spas worldwide, including the Four Seasons – Biltmore Santa Barbara Resort.  Even Out is also available online at hydropeptide.com.

 

About HydroPeptide (www.hydropeptide.com)

HydroPeptide is an anti-aging skin care line formulated with over 21 different peptides at clinical levels and is the winner of over 21 international beauty awards.  Formulated by skin ingredient expert, April Zangl and the renowned Dr. Louise Peck, PhD and nutritional expert in proteins' body building attributes, this collection specializes in peptides, topical protein fragments that simultaneously improve skin's radiance, tone and strength.  As a mother, the CEO of HydroPeptide and a fitness and wellness management expert, April prioritizes creating multifaceted products based on the latest advancements that fit into a busy lifestyle and produce faster results without harsh chemicals or irritation.  April believes that while inner beauty is the most important, HydroPeptide formulations are her outlet for celebrating outer beauty.  HydroPeptide is Scientific Beauty Made Simple.

ARLINGTON, VA (Sharewellnewswire.com) August 13, 2012 – Health Communications, Inc. (HCI), the providers of the TIPS (Training for Intervention ProcedureS) Program, is pleased to announce that Southern Methodist University (SMU) in Dallas, Texas has been awarded the 2012 TIPS Award of Excellence. This is an award bestowed by Health Communication's President & CEO, Adam Chafetz, and is chosen by an internal committee based on both volume of students certified and feedback from TIPS Trainers and student participants. There were nine (9) other campuses that received the award in 2012. According to Mr. Chafetz, "SMU has taken multiple approaches over the years to prevent students from misusing alcohol on and off campus. TIPS is proud to be one of many approaches that they have used. SMU has repeatedly demonstrated their commitment to preventing the misuse of alcohol on their campus and in their community by training their students in an effective alcohol education program".

Southern Methodist University began implementing the TIPS for the University program in early 2007 through their Center for Alcohol and Drug Abuse Prevention Department. Since implementing the program, SMU has certified students across the university through Greek Life, Residence Life & Student Housing, and the Office of Student Conduct and Community Standards. As a result, SMU has certified thousands of students on how to identify someone who is misusing alcohol and, more importantly, on how to effectively and confidently step-in to prevent that follow student from hurting themselves or someone else.

TIPS for the University is a two-hour program that helps students make sound choices when faced with difficult decisions about alcohol use. Working together with other students and administrators at their college or university, students address drinking behaviors specific to their school and develop intervention techniques appropriate to their campus. All sessions are taught by certified TIPS trainers, using video and printed materials to facilitate discussion of the course content. TIPS for the University provides students with the knowledge and confidence necessary to reduce high-risk drinking behavior among their peers. More than 1,200 campuses nationwide have implemented TIPS for the University. In addition, the National Registry of Evidence-based Programs and Practices (NREPP), a project of the Substance Abuse and Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA), has recently recognized the TIPS for the University training program by awarding high marks for both the quality and effectiveness of the program.

Public Policy Online Voting System Announces Successful Nationwide Launch

Members can learn about and cast secure ballots on important federal, state and local public policy issues, before they become law. Registration is free and is designed to engage citizens in the governance process.

Palm Bay Florida (Sharewellnewswire.com) August 13, 2012 - ThePeoplesVote.com is pleased to announce the launch of their innovative public policy online voting system on Friday evening August 10th at 6:00 p.m. EST, according to Chuck Kirkpatrick, Founder and CEO.

"After two years of research and development, America's form of representative government can finally work in a more efficient, interactive way, the way our Founders intended. In fact, many lawmakers and high ranking public policy officials have said our Civic Engagement and Communication System is the future of civic engagement in the governance process. Our Development Team, led by Chief Technology Officer Jeff Cogswell, did a brilliant job of bringing our System to market, and millions of Americans will be proud to join," states Kirkpatrick.

This announcement follows a March 15th press release by the Space Coast Economic Development Commission that the company selected a site location within the City of Palm Bay, Florida's newly designated Enterprise Zone and one of the community's Sustainable Market and Reinvestment Target (SMART) areas.

"Citizens today are insisting on shared ownership for public policy decisions, and now they have the tools to effectively engage. With our first Advisory Propositions, Americans can finally learn about and vote on a very popular and controversial Federal Immigration issue, and Florida residents can vote on Governor Rick Scott's efforts to clean the voter rolls. Later this week, New York City residents will be able to vote on Mayor Bloomberg's desire to ban the sale of large sugary soft drinks. All in all, our launch was a total success and membership enrollments have consistently increased over the weekend," states Daria DiGiovanni, Director of Social Media Strategies.

Last month in Washington, Kirkpatrick and DiGiovanni met with several members of Congress including Florida Congressman Bill Posey and a number of other Congressional staffers, including the office of Utah Senator Mike Lee. This was preceded by a series of successful meetings with members of the Florida Legislature in Tallahassee.

"We are also pleased to announce that additional Angel Investors have joined our Project over the past few weeks. We have a winning concept, a brilliant, dedicated team of professionals on our staff, and investors are seeing our potential. We are the voters tool of the future," adds Kirkpatrick.

Two National Surveys, including an August 2011 independent survey of 2,500 registered voters in five states indicates nearly half of America's voters will join ThePeoplesVote.com.

About ThePeoplesVote.com

Designed to handle tens of millions of users, this System replaces the "catch all" methods of phone, fax, email, letters, website comment forms, tweets, and Facebook posts with one high security communication tool.
