The CBT waiting list is vastly longer in some areas (over 18 months). The mindfullness course is very good. Also search around, some charities will run free CBT courses or pay for private CBT courses for you if you are unable to.

I'm not sure if you were looking for any criticism. I found the way that the way the ATTRIBUTES, HIGHLIGHTS and COLORS dicts are defined to be unnecessarily difficult to read: ATTRIBUTES = dict( list(zip([ 'bold',

I think this is looking for an iPad app too. Each section could be a low cost in-app purchase. Add a preview for each section -- perhaps an article or two from each section, for free.

It's exactly how I read it too. "Instead it was interpreted by many that we were going to sell your photos to others without any compensation. This is not true and it is our mistake that this language is confusing. To be clear: it is not ou

As an aviation enthusiast, I was surprised to learn something from that video; If you look closely, the rear landing gear appear to align with the direction of travel. I always thought they were fixed.

I was impressed when I first recieved the Monday morning recap. One thing though, the cutsey "Monday's aren't so bad" thing became pretty stale. I was really hoping they would be different every week, as it came across as being really perso

No, you'd have to give them the car, because the rightful owners are denied a car by you keeping it. But be careful, licensing doesn't fall under traditional ownership/theft rules.
