Helen's One-Skillet Lasagna
Community Recipe from
- 1 1/4 cup(s) ricotta
- 1/4 cup(s) water
- 1/2 teaspoon(s) salt
- 1/4 cup(s) grated Parmesan
- 1 1/2 cup(s) shredded mozzarella
- 1 pound(s) lean ground beef
- 1 medium zucchini diced (about 1 cup)
- 1 jar(s) (26 oz.) pasta sauce
- 6 oven-ready lasagna noodles
- 1. In a medium bowl, mix together the ricotta, water, salt, Parmesan, and 1/2 cup of the mozzarella. Set the mixture aside.
- 2. Brown the beef in a large skillet set over medium-high heat until it's no longer pink, about 5 minutes, breaking up any clumps with a wooden spoon. Drain any fat, if needed. Add the zucchini. Stir in 2 cups of the pasta sauce. Reduce the heat to medium-low.
- 3. Top the mixture with 2 lasagna noodles, set in the center. Break 2 more noodles into medium-size pieces and fill in the edges. Gently spree the cheese mixture over the noodles. (The noodles may begin to curl in the skillet but the cheeses will hold them down.) Lay on the 2 remaining noodles. Pour the rest of the sauce into the skillet and spread it evenly, then sprinkle on the remaining cup of mozzarella.
- 4. Cover the skillet and simmer the lasagna over medium-low heat until the noodles are tender, about 20 minutes. Remove the skillet from the heat and let the lasagna cool for 5 minutes. Cut the lasagna into squares and serve.

Incredible blonde-ning. Like, I dyed my hair a lighter blonde, and then got sick of it and went back to a light brown. Still using this shampoo on that brown hair and its gone blonder again! I honestly did not expect that from such a regular shampoo, but this really does work incredibly well for blonde hair.
However I no longer have a need for this, and feel like it may be drying my hair out very slightly. But I would definately recommend people to try this for the colour it leaves!
This is my review based on first impressions, and will update later to say if repurchasing.
Overall it lathers well and feels very gentle, slightly softening my hair. The smell is pleasantly herbal, fairly unisex, but doesn't hang around. I'm seeing whether it will emphasise some old blonde dye in my hair over time. But even if it doesn't do that, it seems good enoguh to use anyway. I have light brown hair naturally, so I would like to see what it does for shine regardless.
It is expensive in Australia for the size you get. $9 for 200ml. However this is pretty cheap compared to salon brands.
This is the best shampoo that I have ever used. Honestly better than the salon products I have bought before. Maybe it's just my hair type- very fine hair, but tonnes of it? But this shampoo just makes it super soft, clean and not at all greasy. I can't believe more people aren't using this! Also love the chamomile smell. (I use it with the conditioner in the same line- perfect)

Even though Klorane shampoos are expensive & I can only find them online, they do seem to be the best for my hair. This one is clear yellow, silicone free & lathers beautifully. My hair is fine and the ends are drier, but I do like my hair to be clean, and this cleans it nicely without tangling or drying. It does contain sodium laureth sulfate, and some less than 'natural' ingredients, but it does not dry my hair out or cause excessive shedding on me. It smells like chamomile tea with a touch of honey. Makes my brown henna'd hair bright & shiny, too.
1 out of 1 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
Smells lightly fruity+floral. Consistency of the liquid isn't thick, and neither do you need a lot of product. Lathers just enough and washes out very easily. Still, its got silicone in it and over years of experimentation and elimination, i've figured out that really dries out my scalp majorly. So I won't be buying this again.
This is a good shampoo.
It is quite small for the price.
The packaging is very nice and fits on my shower ledge.
It looks pretty and elegant.
The shampoo itself feels very nice in your hands as well as your hair.
"Smooth" is the best way I can describe the texture.
It feels like a creamy gel, if that makes sense.
The smell is wonderful - I'm really sick of cloying "fruity florals" found in drugstore shampoos.
This is a sweet honey floral scent but refined.
The lather is smooth and full.
It leaves my hair feeling light and baby-soft, even without conditioner!
My hair is brown with natural blonde/red highlights, this shampoo definitely enhances them.
The only negative I can think of is the price.
EDIT: Another negative is that it can be drying. Depends how much you use.

I love this product! It cleans my hair really nicely and doesn't weigh it down at all! I like the packaging and think its reasonably priced at about 8 for 400ml. Will definitely continue to buy this!
I have been using this shampoo for a year or so and for my oily hair it works well. I do not have any problems (such as getting too greasy too fast) - and that is great.
As a shampoo, this product is nice enough. It smells good, it feels light and it leaves hair looking fresh and bouncy.
The only thing I didn't like about it is the way it works with dyed hair. I have medium ash-blonde hair that I dye a warmer shade of blonde in the winter. This shampoo is really great in the first two weeks after the dye-job, really bringing out the highlights, but after that, it just tends to emphasize brassiness.
I'm going to give this shampoo another try in the summer, when I'm no longer dying my hair.

I bought this shampoo because I was suffering severe dry scalp in the winter. I thought I had bad dandruff and had tried a harsh anti-dandruff shampoo but it only made my flakes worse. I decided to switch to a natural and calming regime and picked up this shampoo and a green tea conditioner at Ricky's. After 1 week of use, my scalp isn't perfect but it is soooo much better. I barely have any flakes and if I do they are tiny. This leaves your hair a little dry so a conditioner is needed after it. I am not sure if it was this shampoo or the conditioner that improved my condition because I used them in tandem, but they helped me so much this winter. Really happy with the results.

I love chamomile, and I have tried other chamomile shapoos with mixed results. This one is great. Leaves hair soft & clean, and not drying like Aveda's chamomile shampoo. Doesn't over-tint the yellow tones (some chamomile products will turn hair brassy rather than golden).

Script sounds right, and may delight both British and non-British viewers:
Suffolk /Norfolk shadowing cruisers Jack Tarr crewmen:
'Oy,you know, we might as well throw crumpets at the Bismarck for all the good our little guns would do!
Crewman 2 'I wish someone would throw a bleedin' crumpet at me!
The destroyer 'Solent' destroyed by a salvo from the Bismarck after the Captain beautifully-Britishly declares
as a searchlight clicks onto the sneaky brave little British -ship trying to angle for a night-torpedo attack, never existed. Vians tribal destroyer-flotilla 2 and a Polish-destroyer 'Paiun' did attempt a night attack in heavy seas the night before Bismarcks destruction, but despite considerable gunfire exchanged with the rudder-crippled Nazi collossus, neither Bismarck nor its small tormentors suffered much damage, let alone sudden shattering obliteration like this imaginary 'Solent'.
And as the final-scene suggests, despite all the invincible unsinkable ballyhoo, Bismarck was silenced relatively quickly by two British heavy ships. Then saturated by torpedos from destroyers and cruisers once silenced, this was thought to have been the reason it was finished-off, but strong evidence now suggests the surviving German crews scuttled the blazing listing hulk, rather than risk its capture as a trophy- not a practical possiblity for the British force assailing it, as it now turns out.They were low on fuel, apprehensive of U-boats, just coming into range of the Luftwaffe, and were inclined to 'bounce' as soon as Bismarck was done for, not take 45 000 tons of admittedly good German scrap-metal under tow.
For the war-bird buffs, the 2 'Swordfish' attacks are actually rather fabulous, look absolutely great from all camera-angles, including plumetting torpedoes. Once again the film sexes up the truth, showing 1 or 2 Swordfish blown to pieces by flak in each attack, miraculously, no 'Stringbags' were shot down in either attack, one suffered a near-miss flak-burst and the crew wounded by splinters but survived.( Its thought the normally excellent German gunners missed and missed because they couldnt judge the speed of the 100 mph WW1-performance biplanes.)
But this is a good one, and I can recommend without reservation, it stands-up and impresses easily today.Certainly its worth 5 or 10 'U571s' or 'Pearl Harbors'....
If you want to read the factual story of Bismarck , its hunting and sinking, out of the several books Ive read, I would glowingly endorse 'Pursuit', by Ludovic Kennedy, for this is a great unput-downable sea-story in its own right, 'Pursuit' would be available on Amazon,probably cheap 2nd hand H/C, and you wouldnt regret its purchase, trust me.

This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
In 1941 the Bismark tried to sail down the Denmark Strait and into the Atlantic to hunt British merchant ships. The British were able to track the movements of the Bismark and its escort the Prince Eugen as a cruiser on routine patrol spotted it. The British sent out the battleship Prince of Wales and the Battle Cruiser Hood to intercept it. This was done and the outcome should have been that the Bismark was either sunk or crippled. A lucky shot however penertrated the deck of the Hood blowing it up. To everyones surprise the Bismark was into the Atlantic.
The sinking of the Hood created in the minds of the British that the Bismark was some sort of super battleship. In fact it was about the same size as British ships and its armament was similiar. Its main advantage was its slightly higher speed.
Within a few days of the sinking of the Hood the British were able to concentrate their naval might and to sink the Bismark without suffering any serious losses.
The battle was one in which the British were always going to win but it occured at a point in the war when the Germans occupied Europe and seemed invincible. They were of course about to end all this by their unsuccesful attack on the Soviet Union.
The film captures the feeling of nervousness and desperation of those years. It also captures the immense pride that the British felt at their meticulous and logical tracking down of the enemy battle ship. The film uses models to create the battle scences and they are very effective. Some filming is done in a British battleship. The creation of the war room is realistic and a little ahead of its time in trying to show the mechanics of the operation.
The portrait of the Germans is from cliche land but the film is an effective war film and accurately captures the mood of the time.

4.0 out of 5 stars Great movie about a legendary ship,
Matt Wiser (Auberry, CA USA) - See all my reviews
This movie is a good telling of the Bismarck's ill-fated cruise in May 1941. There are a few fictional elements added: two Swordfish being shot down (in reality none were lost), a British destroyer being sunk on the last night (only British loss was Hood), and Lutjens being a Nazi (Admrial Raeder actually sacked officers who were Nazis and made sure officers with Jewish blood were protected). The SFX are acceptable for the time the movie was made (1960), but it's easy to tell that the ships are models in a studio tank. With the discovery of the Hood's wreck and James Cameron's dive on the Bismarck wreck this movie comes back into focus. This is one movie that OUGHT to be remade today-and with today's SFX, it would be easy to show the ships-Bismarck, Prinz Eugen, Hood, Prince of Wales, King George V, Rodney, Norfolk, Suffolk, Dorsetshire, Victorious, Ark Royal, Sheffield, and the Tribal-class DDs of the 4th DD Flotilla (under a man whose career deserves a movie of his own-then CAPT Philip Vian).
All that's missing from this movie is Johnny Horton's song.

3.0 out of 5 stars A Fine, Flawed Film,
Jack Rice (California, USA) - See all my reviews
The British have made war and historical movies with an unrivaled consistency of quality, and Sink the Bismarck is no exception. The details are meticulous, the casting first-rate (except for a hokey voice-impersonation of Churchill), and the battle sequences marked by accuracy and fine special effects.
This otherwise fine film is marred, however, by the false depiction of one of the major characters, Admiral Lutjens, commander of the Bismarck. In the film, he is stereotyped as the typical Nazi - a Hitler sycophant, careerist and wild-eyed fanatic. This was most certainly not the historical Lutjens, who was by no means a Nazi fanatic. Lutjens was a naval hero from World War I, who served out of duty and dedication, not Nazi conviction. (Lutjens protected Jews under his command, and members of his family were in trouble for their anti-Nazi views.) This is at complete odds with his depiction in Sink the Bismarck, which I find inexcusable, given that the above information was certainly available to the production. In fact, an accurate depiction of Lutjens would have, in my opinion, added interest to the plot.
Nevertheless, Sink the Bismarck is eminently watchable and a fine addition to any war movie collection, if you bear in mind the above caveat.

3.0 out of 5 stars Fiction not as gripping as reality!,
By A Customer
Having studied this famous naval battle, I found the movie a bit disappointing. They have drawn the storyline away from the search for the Bismarck and on to a fictional character (More) in naval command headquarters in London, and his love interest (Wynter). The actual naval battles take up less than half of the movie, and when they are done they are not done in a very stimulating way. They are basically just bathtub models of battleships. The sinking of HMS HOOD is particularly disappointing. In reality, the sinking of the Hood (the greatest battleship in the Royal Navy) by a single shot from the mighty Bismarck is what enraged the British people to such an extent that Churchill dispatched the entire British fleet to hunt her down, and avenge the Hood. Very exciting in reality, but very underdone in the movie.
Although the naval battles could have been better done, the movie is still somewhat entertaining, and interesting from a historical perspective. So I would still (marginally) recommend it. (And if you buy it, here is a hot tip! Read the lips of the Captain of the Sheffield after he is accidentally mistaken for the Bismark and attacked by British torpedo planes. Very amusing! (And very avant-garde for a 1960 film!) I can only assume that the censors in 1960 were not proficient lip readers.)
If you are looking for a better naval battle movie I would recommend "That Hamilton Woman," with Jean Simmons and Lawrence Olivier (Emma Hamilton and Horatio Nelson). Lots of naval battles for us little boys and lots of sappy, star-crossed lovers' croonings for the little girls. Excellent family entertainment, with accurate historical content. How could you ask for more? :)
5.0 out of 5 stars A Great Movie About the Hunt for the Bismarck,
Jeffrey T. Munson (Dixon, IL) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
This fine film, made in 1960, does a fine job of re-creating the events surrounding the search for and eventual destruction of the pride of the German navy: the Bismarck. Veteran British actor Kenneth More stars as Captain Jonathan Shepard, a new officer who gets placed in charge of the hunt for the Bismarck in Britain's Naval Operations center. Shepard has a personal stake in seeing the Bismarck sunk. Bismarck's commander, Admiral Gunter Lutjens, played by Karel Stepanek, sunk Shepard's vessel earlier in the war. Dana Wynter stars as 2nd officer Anne Davis, an assistant to Capt. Shepard. A fictional implied but never shown romance develops between Shepard and Davis throughout the course of the film. Carl Mohner stars as Bismarck's Captain Lindemann.
The battle scenes are excellent. One must remember when viewing this film that the special effects are from the 1960's, but that does nothing to detract from the excitement of the ship-to-ship combat scenes. The fight between the HMS Hood and Bismarck is the high point of the film. It was exciting to see the ships being straddled by the other's shells, and seeing the Hood blow up was especially thrilling.
The historical correctness of the film was excellent except for a few minor details. For example, during the attack on the Bismarck by the British Swordfish torpedo planes, the movie shows two being destroyed when in reality none were lost. Also, the movie depicts a British destroyer being sunk by Bismarck. This is also incorrect as the Hood was the only British loss. Finally, the movie depicts Admiral Lutjens as being a staunt supporter of the Nazi party. This is also false. Lutjens was against Naziism, and refused to give the Nazi salute, instead preferring to use the old German navy salute. The movie also depicted a rather close relationship between Lutjens and Lindemann. This was also not the case. In reality, the two German commanders disagreed on many topics, and at one point during the heat of battle, Lindemann said to Lutjens that he refused to sit by while his ship was shot out from underneath him. Aside from these points, the historical aspect of the movie is very well done.
I highly recommend this film. The acting is excellent and the battle scenes will keep you on the edge of your seat. Watch this great movie and experience the hunt for the most feared ship in the German navy.
4.0 out of 5 stars An all time favorite,
Margaret M. Duffy (New York, NY USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
I'm not entirely sure why I like this movie so very much, but I have loved it from the very first time I saw it more than 20 years ago and still watch it often. It is a dramatization of the true story of the short-lived first cruise of the German battleship "Bismarck", of the destruction it wrought and of the hunt to find and ultimately destroy it. Yes, there are some inaccuracies in the details of which ships took part in the hunt, as well as in the portrayal of German Admiral Gunther Lutjens, but the fact that this is a British movie, made while the scars of war were still a strongly living memory, should be borne in mind in this regard.
Among the things that make it worth viewing are: the presence of Edward R. Morrow recreating the atmosphere of his wartime London radio reports, the recreation of the Naval command center underneath the Admiralty building and the highly believable performance of Kenneth More (himself a wartime naval officer) as the deeply wounded Captain Shepherd. Dana Wynter also gives a delicately nuanced performance as Second Officer Anne Davis. The moment when she enters Shepherd's office and realizes that he is crying is beautifully done.
The highly restrained romantic undercurrent doesn't interfere with the main story line and is very believable for wartime professionals. One comes away from this movie knowing that a great menace to the eventual survival of Britain has been eliminated and that there may be hope for both the UK and for two lonely people.
The inclusion in the new DVD of some newreel footage of the actual event is a nice little bonus. The subject of the hunt for and destruction of the "Bismarck" has also recently been the subject of some recent documentaries. The story retains its impact, even after more than 60 years.
5.0 out of 5 stars A fine dramatization of a famous victory.,
Roger J. Buffington (Huntington Beach, CA United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
The duel between the British Admiralty and fleet, and the Bismarck, is a great story, and deserves a great telling. This movie does the job. The acting and storyline are first rate, and as long as one doesn't mind the black-and-white format, there is very little to criticize about this film. I found it to be terribly engrossing, and the minor dramatization and low-key love interest between the two leads did not detract from the grand theme of the movie: the vital task of destroying the great German battleship Bismarck before she could get loose out in the Atlantic and wreak havoc on the British convoy system--the jugular vein of the British nation even as she fought alone for her survival against the Nazi juggernaught.
A few minor points of criticism. I understand that the German fleet commander, Lutjens, was nothing like as portrayed in this film. In the film he is shown as a rather venal, fanatical Nazi. The real Lutjens was apparently nothing like that, and was evidently not even a member of the Nazi party. Well, I suppose a war film of this kind needs a "bad" Nazi character.
The liberties with the historical record aside, this is a wonderful film about a vital and critical battle of World War 2. This is one that you'll watch and enjoy more than once. Highly recommended.
4.0 out of 5 stars What a difference a war makes!,
Thomas Thompson (Hackensack, New Jersey United States) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
I rated this at least a 4 star film for a none to thrilling fact that this film represents an event in a time past that was as dramatic as any of the days of world war 2.There are a few items of a verifiable nature that the would be viewer might well learn from. The world had settled a score with Germany with the signing of the armistice which ended the first world war.The accord agreed to restricted the tonnage,that is the size and scope of germanys naval ambitions,just to mention one of the many restrictions placed on germany.One of the original ideas that germany pioneered in order to get around the restrictions was the advent of what we now know was the pocket battleship.The Bismarck was a very powerfull,if not the most powerfull ship afloat while she roamed the seas.I beleive though that the Japanese had the distinction of possessing the right to the most powerfull ship afloat during world war two.However, look no further than the bismarck! Destroyers and the like ran from her and to be absolutly straight up with you that was a ship to be reckoned with! There is another fact that might provide some help in this very important battle that is about to take place? The first world war brought an end to the era of the dreadnaught,which H.M.S. Hood was part of,though her place on the high seas was at a latter point in the first world war she still possessed a dreadnaught distinction.During a time between the wars and commencing a time immediately before the onset of hostilites of the second world war Hood underwent a makeover.Listen to this! those dreadnaught were slower than what was being done as the years passed and in an effort to make Hood faster she made a sacrifice of her plating.If you really want a shock wear do you think her plating was taken from?Right behind the stacks immediately over the area which protects the munitions.If ever there was a disaster waiting to happen it was that.I beleive that this might still be a conjecture as to the Hood blowing up,however the rest is history.I want to be clear this actually occured Hood was refitted and slimmed down and it may have cost her,her life.Long Live this Island nation-had it not been For the resolve of England on the high seas things may very well been different.This is not lessen any other aspect of the very dramatic time in world history but its dramatic detail cannot be overlooked-As a side note this picture drew enough attention that I think it was a singer who released a song at the time of the release of the film called Sink the Bismarck by johnny Horton.There not many events in history that entire movies are dedicated to,well,this is one.
2.0 out of 5 stars Better personal drama than history,
By A Customer
This review is from: Sink The Bismarck (Bilingual) (DVD)
This chestnut has only been on cable about 1,000 times, and if you're at all interested, you've already seen it many times over. The best parts of the movie happen with Kenneth More, who plays his role with a reasonable degree of complexity, even though it's a standard turn (the tough as steel but wounded and kind underneath military guy). The worst part is the bad-guy portrayal of Admiral Lutjens, who is played as a unyielding Nazi true believer superman type.
But, a movie like this is probably judged on the naval battle scenes, and it's pretty horrible in that regard. At least models are used that truly represent the ships involved, but they're not very good models, and the violence and shock of being on the receiving end of 15" shells is not at all conveyed. The historical accuracy is pretty fair, but sketchy in several respects.
This film cries for a remake, fleshing out the story behind the mission from the German Navy side as well, and punching up the graphics a hundred fold. They remake just about everything these days, I wonder why a thunderous battleship battle film doesn't make lunch discussions in Hollywood?

Parental Control Software: A Comparison of Software Effectiveness (Part 2)
Jun 29, 2000
There are many parental control software packages on the market these days, but how does a parent know what they are getting works? This is the second half of a two part review of Parental Control Software.
What is parental control software? It is a software package designed to filter the internet and prevent children from being exposed to obscene or harmful media. The amount of filtering done by each package varies depending on what the software is designed to do. Nearly all internet filtration software is designed and advertised to stop or reduce a child�s exposure to pornography and the sexually explicit.
How do these software packages work? It depends on the technology and software package used; however, most have a list of sites, built into the software or the parent server, that are considered forbidden sites. When the software detects the loading of a forbidden site, word or phrase, the result can vary from the simple, by displaying a screen denying access to the site, to the extreme of shutting down the computer.
The seven Parental Control packages I�m reviewing are as follows: Puresight.net, Cyber Patrol, The BAIR system, Surf Watch, Cybersitter, Net Nanny, and AOL Parental Controls. For each package, I�ll cover the cost, some of the features, and my rating. In order to keep the size of this review manageable, I have broken it into to segments. This second segment will review the BAIR system, AOL Parental Controls and Cybersitter.
To get my rating, I tested each software package searching on 20 different key words. Most of these words would normally lead a person to a pornography site, a hate group site or a site that may be associated with a cult (If you want to know specifically what words I searched with, please feel free to contact me). A few of the key words may lead to a non-desirable site in a round about manner. If a key word resulted in a directory, I attempted to find five sites that would challenge the software. If the word was denied a search, I considered it a pass. If a keyword was granted access to a non-desirable site once on five attempts, I considered it a pass. If the word gained two accesses, the test failed for that word. There is a possibility of 100 passes, fails or a combination thereof. In order to be highly recommended, the software must score a 90 or better. To receive a rating of recommended, the software must score an 80 or better. Any software not scoring at least an 80 is not recommended.
Cyber Sitter
Cyber Sitter was developed by Solid Oak Software. A free trial version of the software is available for download. Cost for the full package is $39.95. The software requires an administrator�s password (except with the trial version) to prevent a child from turning the filter off or uninstalling the software. The software filters and blocks by site and word. The site database is maintained and updated by Cyber Sitter. Installation of the software was very easy.
The software has several nice benefits. One is the �Family Friendly� search engine. This search engine effective turns off most adult related/rated sites. Another great feature is the �Safe-Site� redirection protocol. When searching the internet on a word or phrase, the software will redirect the user to a safe site, when there are no non-offensive web sites available for the word or phrase searched. The same holds true, in most cases, if a non-desirable web site is available in the results directory from a search. Attempting to access the offensive site uses causes a redirection to a safe-site. Safe sites are usually educational and informational in content. A few extra bonuses that come with the software package are the ability to have e-mail and AOL Instant-Messenger filtered.
Similar to other Parental Control software packages, the parent can filter or prohibit game sites, and establish additional prohibitions for users. The software keeps a log of user violations. The parent or administrator can set day and time standards for when the internet is available for access by a child or user.
Of the 20 key words searched for, the software blocked access to sites on 15 of the words without providing a directory. One key word had a directory associated with it, but all offensive links from the directory were blocked. Four key words searched were partially blocked or filtered.
Cyber Sitter has received the PC Magazine Editor�s Choice Award for 2000. Designed for Win 95/98/2000/Me/ and NT.
Based on my test results, Cyber Sitter scored an 89. I RECOMMEND this software package (Grade A-)!
The BAIR System
The BAIR System was developed by Exotrope. A free trial version of the software is available for download. Cost for the full software package is $4.95 per month. Installation of the software package was relatively easy. However, it took me a little time figure out how to uninstall the software package.
The BAIR System is not compatible with Compuserve or AOL Internet Service Providers.
I was unable to test the software, but I can provide some basic information on some of the features that come with the package.
Each internet user must have a profile and an associated password. One of the users must be the administrator. Each profile can be edited as to how intense the filtering software should be. All profile editing is performed by the administrator/parent.
The software package �uses artificial intelligence to block inappropriate words and pictures from being displayed on your computer when browsing the internet.� This seems to be similar to the Puresight software technology, as discussed in segment 1 of this review.
The BAIR System received a PC Magazine Editor�s Award for May 9, 2000. The BAIR System is designed for Win 95/98 and 2000.
I have not been able to test this software, so I can neither recommend it nor provide cautions against using it.
AOL Parental Controls
AOL Parental Controls was developed by AOL for AOL users. The software is a part of the AOL subscription package. Activating the Parental Controls was very easy.
Within the AOL Parental Controls, the master user can establish the controls for all other users on that AOL account. These controls include filtering WEB sites, Newsgroups, limiting access to Premium Sites, and limiting the user�s internet time by day and hours.
AOL has broken its Parental Controls into four categories: General (18 years old or older), Mature Teen (16-17), Young Teen (13�15) and Kids Only (12 and Under).
Kids Only: The filtering process in this mode was very effective. Children limited to Kids Only are not able to access the internet or internet search engines. All attempts to access the internet were blocked. If as a parent, you desire to allow your child to have limited access to the internet, "Kids Only" is not the option for you. If you desire to block all access to the internet, this choice is great.
Young Teen: The filtering process in this mode was also very effective. Young Teens can access an internet search engine. Of the 20 keywords I used to search with, all words were blocked from producing a search directory. If as a parent, you desire to allow your child to have limited access to the internet, "Young Teens" is not the option for you. If you desire to block almost all access to the internet, this choice is great.
Mature Teen: The filtering process for this mode is seriously lacking. A mature teen can access the internet and internet search engines. Of the 20 key words I searched with, only 3 words passed.
AOL Parental Controls, as a part of AOL is designed for Win 3.1/95/98/2000/NT and MAC.
Based on the results of my tests of the Kids Only mode (score of 100), I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS Mode. (Grade A)!
Based on results of my testing of the Young Teen Mode (score 100), I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS Mode. (Grade A).
Based on results of my testing of the Mature Teen Mode (score 30), I DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS Mode. (Grade F).
Final Recommendations for Parental Control Software in both segments: Cyber Sitter, AOL Parental Controls (Kids Only and Young Teen), Surf Watch and Cyber Patrol all performed well. Any of these software packages would be valuable in protecting what a child may be exposed to on the internet.
The limitation on the AOL Parental Controls is that you have to be a member of AOL to use them. Additionally, the "Kids Only" and "Young Teen" filter protocols might be to stringent for what you need. If you do not wish to join AOL or would like some internet access for your child, then I would recommend using Cyber Sitter, Surf Watch or Cyber Patrol.
The Puresight software package was excellent, but only in one mode, a lot of time will be required to make it a really useable program.
My Rankings:
1. Cyber Sitter / AOL Parental Controls
2. Surf Watch
3. Cyber Patrol

One person is in custody, and another person is being questioned in connection with Wednesday's stabbing in Monticello. Eva McKend has the latest on the investigation.
MONTICELLO, N.Y. -- Multiple people are being questioned after Wednesday's stabbing in Monticello.
It started out as an argument between teenagers over a boy and escalated into a chaotic stabbing incident involving two families and multiple victims.
A mother and daughter, 45-year-old Dawn Tyler and 18 year old Khadijah Stewart, carted off to jail. Both charged with assault after 19-year-old Nischelle Jackson and her 14-year-old brother were stabbed on Cottage Street Wednesday night.
Jackson remains at Albany Medical Center with multiple stab wounds.
"Most of the injuries are on the left side of her body including the left side of her face close to the eye area, the left arm and the left hip," said Monticello Police Chief Robert Mir.
Police believe it began as a dispute between the teens over a young man and quickly escalated. Officers say Stewart showed up with her mother and brother to Jackson's home threatening the group with knives or say carrying knives.
"It's going to change all of their lives forever," said Mir.
Members of the victim's family are outraged by the violence.
"This is something that shouldn't have came this far. Everyday teenagers have fights with each other but when you get parents that's coming in and older siblings with weapons and they went into their home and they stabbed them up on their property, what more can you do? This girl is supposed to graduate in 6 weeks," said Sheila Jackson, the victim's grandmother.
Police say they plan file additional charges as more information becomes available. They are still looking for Khadijah Stewart's younger brother who they also believed was involved with the fight.

I'll have to check this one out. Thanks for the rec!
Whedon Watch: "In Your Eyes"
I don't know what took me so long to watch this movie. I heard about it back in April when a fellow Chickster sent me this link, but I finally got around to coughing up the $5 to watch "In Your Eyes," which Whedon put online after it debuted at a film festival.
Aside from being extremely cheap, I admit I also had reservations about Joss Whedon's ability to write a romance. (I know. How silly of me.) Sure his shows have had some well-executed romances (Buffy/Angel, Buffy/Spike, Malcolm/Inara), but those were always secondary to the main plot, which is what, I suspected, made them work. Also, at least two of them were based on Sarah Michelle Gellar's acting abilities. (That girl can make you feel anything. In the show "Ringer," she plays twins so well that when one of them steps on screen you can tell which one it is and whether or not she's pretending to be the other. It's nuts.) So I wasn't sure his ability to executive romances was really calculated, but I was incorrect.
This is one of the most romantic movies I've ever seen. Sure it has the usual Whedon paranormal twist to it, as well as snappy dialogue (which never hurts), but at it's core it's really just a romance. Albeit a strange one about two people who live in opposite climates who have a strange connection. I will say though, that the actors did a marvelous job on this. If they hadn't of been so well cast, it wouldn't have worked as well as it did.
You'll recognize Zoe Kazan (Rebecca) from Ruby Sparks, where she also plays an extremely endearing character, and Michael Stahl-David from Cloverfield. They both excel at playing ordinary characters that feel extraordinary.
Nikki Reed from "Twilight" is gorgeous as ever, but not as easy to recognize without her icy blonde, Rosalie hair. Jennifer Grey is as unrecognizable as ever, ever since that nose job that she once said "ruined" her career. Her character is also so non-essential to the plot that it seems forced just to get her some work. Poor thing! She looks great though.
Overall, I definitely recommend this movie. Well-worth the $5 and once again proof of Whedon's unmatched writing abilities.

This includes the city of Charlotte and six surrounding towns.The County park system (greenways, municipal golf courses except The Tradition, and facilities) would be free of all tobacco products, including all smoking products, as well as smokeless products (chew, dip, snuff) and electronic cigarettes.
A community forum to inform residents and gather feedback about the proposed regulations will be held Monday, Aug. 11 from 6 p.m. – 7 p.m. at the Charlotte-Mecklenburg Government Center, Room 267, 600 East 4th Street, Charlotte. An informal drop-in will be held from 4 p.m. – 6 p.m. prior to the forum.

There are programs that allow current UM-Flint graduate students to be a guest student at another university. Please choose the section that applies to you.
Michigan Intercollegiate Graduate Study (MIGS)
The University of Michigan participates in the Michigan Intercollegiate Graduate Study (MIGS) program. The MIGS Program creates exchange possibilities for graduate students currently enrolled in Michigan universities. Students in good standing at one institution may take advantage of course and research opportunities offered at another institution, provided that such opportunities are not available on the home campus. Students in master's or specialist degree programs may enroll for six hours at a host institution while doctoral students may enroll for up to nine hours. To apply for permission to take courses in another graduate school at another participating university in the State of Michigan, complete the MIGS Application. Inquiries regarding appropriate contacts and administrative approvals should be addressed to the Office of Graduate Programs, 251 Thompson Library, Flint, MI 48502, (810) 762-3171, email@example.com.
Rackham Students taking courses in Ann Arbor or Dearborn
UM-Flint Rackham graduate students (students in the Master of Arts in Arts Administration [MA], Master of Arts in Liberal Studies [MA] or Master of Public Administration [MPA] programs) may take courses offered at another U-M campus subject to the approval of their own department and the availability of space in the courses desired. The following procedures should be observed:
- Be sure that the course you want is offered for Rackham graduate credit. Approved courses are listed in Rackham's Bulletin: Program Information and Course Offerings. If you are uncertain whether or not a course is approved for Rackham credit, check with the department offering the course. Although you may elect non-Rackham courses, you may not apply such courses toward your degree program.
- Obtain written permission from your graduate program chair, specifying the department, course number, section number, and credit hours for the course.
- Obtain a signed override or written permission from the course instructor.
- UM-Flint students electing a course at Ann Arbor must complete an Ann Arbor Rackham Guest Application form available online.
- UM-Flint students electing a course at Dearborn must complete a Dearborn Rackham Guest Application form available online.
- For future instructions, contact the appropriate graduate studies office: the Ann Arbor Rackham Admissions Office, 0120 Rackham Building, 915 E. Washington St., Ann Arbor, Michigan 48109-1070, (734) 764-8129, e-mail: email@example.com; or the Dearborn Graduate Studies Office, 1080 Administration Building, (313) 593-1494.
Committee on Institutional Cooperation (CIC)
The University of Michigan participates in this consortium of the Big Ten universities plus the University of Chicago. The CIC sponsors the Traveling Scholar Program which enables doctoral students to spend up to a full academic year pursuing specialized courses of study, researching library collections, and working in laboratories and facilities at other CIC institutions with no change in registration procedures from their home university or additional tuition. Traveling Scholars pay regular fees to their home institution, where they remain registered. Visits are limited to two semesters or three quarters, and graduate credits earned at the host university are automatically accepted by the home university. The application is available from the Rackham Graduate School website.
Courses taken at other colleges or universities
Students may transfer a limited number of courses taken at other colleges or universities (but not as a part of the Rackham Guest or MIGS programs) to a graduate degree program at the University of Michigan-Flint in conformance with the transfer of credit policy for their program.

Written by Dentistry Today Tuesday, 06 September 2011 12:54
Englewood Cliffs, New Jersey – September 6, 2011) The American Academy of Facial Cosmetics (A.A.F.C.) directed by Drs. Bruce Freund, Zev Schulhof and Jerald Friedman, is very excited to announce that their facial injectable course is one of the first courses in the state of New Jersey to be given accreditation by the N.J. State Board of Dentistry. The A.A.F.C. course will satisfy all the requirements of the State Board toward the certification in injectable pharmacologics, a requirement needed to perform these procedures in the state of New Jersey. For more information log on to www.aafcinjectables.org
This certification course will be given at the Meadowlands Hospital in Secaucus, N.J. on September 15 & 16, 2011. Upon completion, doctors will be certified in injectable pharmacologics and will receive 21 continuing education credits, approved by New Jersey State Board of Dentistry.
Take the course from the originators not the duplicators - facial injectable courses may look the same but they're NOT. Our course includes products needed for the hands-on portion as well as a live model demonstration, not just mentored supervision. We offer continued support which many courses are unable to provide. We don't just lecture about facial injectables, we teach what we do and we do what we teach. We have integrated these procedures into our dental practices to make facial cosmetics an important source of income and we will share this expertise with you.
Course Objectives
Introduction to injectable pharmacologics
Discuss the history, safety, mechanism of action, and preparation of dermal fillers and neurotoxins
Pharmacological effects and contraindications, including potential drug interactions
Management of complications
Training in facial anatomy and physiology as it applies to facial aesthetics including:
Anatomy of head and neck
Neurophysiology, including facial tissue, parasympathetic, sympathetic and peripheral nervous systems relative to peri-oral tissue and facial architecture
Patient selection, including indications and contraindications
Medical history including medications, allergies and relevant problems
Accurate documentation including drug, dosage and sites of injections

So i just came out of a game and as usual i get told off and called a noob by everyone for stacking 2 doran rings and bringing flash+cleanse as my summoner abilities. I bet all the yi players are thinking the exact same thing i am right now.
Anyway to the point I'm making this to say to everyone that see's a yi player stacking dorans they ARN'T noobs get over it is probably the best starting build you can do on yi when laning. Summoner abilities flash+cleanse no idea what i get yelled at for taking them on a melee dps but just incase you think thats a noob choice to its not. So everyone stop calling yi's that stack dorans noobs they arn't if they play a bad game don't blame there build they just played a bad game like everyone does once in a while.
That is all Merry christmas everyone have a good new years in a few days ^^
Commander Yordle
Flash and Cleanse are redundant when combined with Yi's ulti.
Baha, people keep saying Cleanse is bad for him due his ulti but... I can't count how many times it have saved me or made me score a kill on the enemy.
I prefer ghost and cleanse myself but w/e it works. i find exhaust is unessecary as i plan on getting red often and ignite has about the range of alpha so if im going to kill them its going to happen and if they are going to get away they are going to get away.

Cleanse isn't a bad choice, and if any one else tells you differently, tell them to gtfo. There are countless champs with stuns, taunts, suppression, etc. etc., and Cleanse can definitely help out.
Personally, and with Yi as my main, I always run Ghost + Exhaust (with the respective masteries). I also don't even bother with AP/Mana items.
Not bad to experiment once in a while, though.
Pendragon does it so it is pro. End of Story.

Skin Care: Guide to Making yours Eco-Friendly
BENEFITS for the environment: Skin care products contribute to the thousands of chemicals washed down the drain. These disrupt aquatic ecosystems, seep into the soil, contaminate farms, and contribute to cancer and infertility among populations of marine life and wildlife.
BENEFITS for your health: Eco-friendly skin care products often have significantly fewer toxic chemicals than traditional products. Toxic chemicals are those that have been linked to causing birth defects, reproductive harm, and cancer.
BENEFITS for your wallet: If you make your skin care products at home, you will not only know exactly what ingredients you are putting on your face, but you can also save a lot of money!
Cost: Low
If you make these products at home, the common fruits and oils may already be in your pantry. Even if you wish to buy an eco-friendly skin care product already on the market, there are now lower-cost options in many stores.
Time and effort: Low to Moderate
Buying eco-friendly products is easy because all you need to do is know what to look for. If you make your own products, you can just blend the ingredients together and apply them to your skin.
Making your own eco-friendly skincare:
Face mask
Buying eco-friendly products:
Avoid certain chemicals
These chemicals can be found in various skin care products, and have side effects which can be bad for both you and the environment.

Minister Collapses In Turkey
Burkina Faso's foreign minister collapsed and fell off a platform on Thursday during a live press conference in Ankara with Turkish counterpart Ahmet Davutoglu.
Djibrill Bassole wobbled and fell to the floor, knocking down a stand in front of him, while Davutoglu was responding to a journalist's question.
The Turkish minister tried to grab Bassole by the arm but was unable to prevent him falling.
"I could see something was wrong but I thought it was the translation," said Davutoglu, who suffered a minor foot injury himself in the incident.
The 55-year old minister was helped to his feet by Davutoglu and other officials in the room and was seen apparently well and smiling to the cameras as he was taken to hospital.
"He seems to have suffered a partial blackout, we ran some heart and blood tests," a doctor from the hospital that treated Bassole told reporters.
"His heart is just fine but he has low blood sugar, which could explain what happened," the doctor added.
Davutoglu said Bassole now looked well but added: "We will not let him go anywhere before we are completely sure."
Bassole was scheduled to visit France on Monday but the trip will be cancelled, Davutoglu added.
Foreign ministry officials said earlier Bassole had a sore throat and had taken antibiotics a few hours before the press conference.

OLYMPIC SEAMS: Benetton isn't the only company aiming to capitalize on the Summer Games, of course. On Tuesday, In Style China will provide a guide to Asian fashion when it will host a fashion show on NBC's "Today" show from Beijing. The segment will showcase looks from six leading Chinese designers: Han Feng, Shiatzy Chen, Qui Hao, Ma Ke, Xie Feng and Uma Wang. (One of Xie Feng's is a sporty silver nylon dress inspired by this year's games). In Style will use Chinese models to walk in the looks (sorry, Meredith Vieira and Ann Curry). Fashion and luxury brands continue to expand into China's growing upscale market. At the same time, designers from the region also are receiving more attention from the mainstream market — Ke was the first Chinese fashion maker to present a collection during the June couture shows in Paris. Next month, Xie Feng and Chen will show collections in Paris. In Style's Chinese edition was launched last month with advertising from Louis Vuitton, Tod's, Chanel, Lancôme, Dior, Hermès, Givenchy and Adidas. The fashion and beauty pages of the issue are produced locally, but between 30 and 40 percent of the issue's content is picked up from the U.S. edition. — S.D.S.

Samsung's mobile business going strong, might have sold more smartphones in Q2 than Nokia
For some reason Samsung didn't report the total number of handsets sold, and that's for the first time in maybe a decade since it started issuing these quarterly presentations, but our estimates peg the figure between 74 and 76 million handsets sold. The profit margin from its telecom business, however, was a cool 13.7%, the highest number since 2004, due to strong high-end smartphone sales, like the Samsung Galaxy S II.
If the featurephone business "slight decrease" means, say, 2%, we'll have 56.25 million sold, and extracting from 75 to 76 million total handsets sold, that pegs the smartphone number 17.75-19.75 million sold, which is higher than Nokia's sales, but lower than Apple's. Even if the featurephone business fell just 1%, Samsung probably still sold more smartphones than Nokia, as we assume the tablets share to be fairly low.
The increase of smartphone share in Samsung's portfolio brought one more positive - the average selling price of its handsets was up in the "low 10%", which might mean anything between 1%-5%, compared to Q1, when we had $129 ASP.
With the Samsung Galaxy S II marching strong, and its pending launch in the US, we can only expect this upwards trend for Samsung's mobile business to continue.

So much for Apple controlling the smartphone market. Samsung sold nearly on par with them.
Android must be kicking iOS ass. No news here though, given that it has a 39% market share in the US.

"might have"? it should have been "Have already". nokia is falling and the pace just got faster after they announce they were abandoning symbian without an alternate os phone ready.
5. Mobile-X-Pert (Posts: 565; Member since: 20 Dec 2010)
It's sad how people forget all the great things Nokia did in the past, now they're just bashing and hating Nokia like if it was personal.
6. Case (unregistered)
I agree with mobile xpert. Like their is no reason to hate Nokia. After all they have done for us in the past. I'll bet many of you had owned a Nokia phone in the past and thought I will always love Nokia.
7. jthiagesan (Posts: 104; Member since: 20 Apr 2011)
me too, but still they lag in OS and apps compared to android and apple markets. we cant just keep thinking what they did but we should think what are they doing now?
8. biscutbob (Posts: 82; Member since: 08 Jul 2011)
Nokia is good they just have no OS and no apps. The same reason RIM is going down pretty fast as well. The Blackberry is a un rivaled business phone but its applications like nokias OS suck even windows phones are coming up very nicley in terms of apps and and a smooth OS.

"Here's a guy who's got a 36-game hitting streak. He's waited five or six months, and we're getting beat by eight runs. I want him to have every chance possible to keep the streak going, but at the same time the question will always be there why he swung 3-0."
Related quotes
"It was nice to keep the hitting streak alive. But I would have been happy going 0-for-3 and getting a 4-1 win."
"To win 14 consecutive years is like Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting [streak], ... It's a record that's never going to be broken."
"Sometimes you get streaks in a game. Cold and hot streaks and I think we just found that streak and we just started playing hot defensively."
"That's one heck of a long hitting streak. When I looked back after the season, it was like, 'Wow, that's 36 days of working to be successful, but he did it for 20 more games.' It's almost unimaginable that someone can even hit in that many games straight, but here I am across the halfway point. This is when it gets tough."
"To win 14 consecutive years is like Joe DiMaggio's 56-game hitting [streak]. It's a record that's never going to be broken."

Have you ever felt like real success was within reach at your job, but then you did something unintentionally to sabotage it?
Employees can often hurt their own careers because they fear "failing at success" when attempting to rise to the next level. They think, "How can I possibly handle that new level of responsibility without messing up?" And then a fear of failure becomes reality.
Saboteur thinking can plague you throughout your career or just happen in phases – and it happens to most everyone at some point. Either way, you can counter it by using sabotage blockers that help you realize you are indeed up to the task.
Signs of Career Self-Sabotage
There are some telltale signs that you may unknowingly be hurting your career. Missing deadlines, being overly modest, putting down others' accomplishments, constantly working on overdrive, being overly perfectionistic, worrying too much about what others think, failing to follow through, refusing to admit mistakes, being resistant to change or suddenly withdrawing – are some of the red flags of self- sabotage at work.

VolumeTouch 1.1
It does not come packed with complex features or configuration settings, which means that it can be figured out by all types of users, even newcomers in the software community.
Accessibility via the system tray
The setup procedure takes little time and minimal user assistance. At startup, VolumeTouch creates an icon in the system tray area to replace the regular volume controller.
Select a hotkey and mouse mode
By opening its context menu it is possible to open the volume controlling and sound recording tools of Windows, adjust the audio properties (playback, recording, sounds, communications), select a key combination for tweaking the volume quicker than normally, as well as pick the mouse mode between wheel scroll, vertical and horizontal mouse position. In addition, you can change the tray icon skin, mute the volume via a hotkey (cannot be changed), as well as disable VolumeTouch instead of exiting it.

Evaluation and conclusion
As expected, the tool does not put a strain on PC performance, since it runs on low CPU and RAM. There were no kind of issues in our tests, as it did not hang, crash or pop up error messages. Although it is not particularly feature-rich, VolumeTouch is simple to use and gets the job done.
