Try the following Google search for "Educational Websites for Children". There are tons of links to follow and noticed several are by age group as well. Guarantee you will find several that are of interest to you as well. Gotta go now, I found a really cool link for making Geodesic Gum Drops!
I hate it when I preview carefully, and still screw up. I can't cut'n'paste worth a crap sometimes. Here's the "y" I left out in the previous post.....
This looks like an excellent opportunity for MS to make more money, and spend less on development costs. From the articles it appears that if I modify the code in a really good, general purpose way -- they get a copy of it back for free. They can then incorporate the changes and sell it royality free (to me). But if I sell my modified version, I have to pay royalities per copy.
Whole new twist on outsourcing your development activities to save money.
I agree that the security of the system is lacking and probably wouldn't take a lot of effort to circumvent.
However, as a parent, having access to my child's progress in school without continually bugging all 7 teachers is an excellent idea. It gives me an opportunity to see if he needs help without waiting 9 weeks. (Mind you, he has NO problem with asking for help when he needs it.)
You indicate that your parents are putting you through hell daily to make sure you've done your homework -- is this an indication that you've had problems getting it done in the past? Maybe if the HW is finished before the fun is started, they might lighten up a bit in the future.
Here's a quote from an article that indicates that the source code is include with the two products:
"Red Hat promised that its CMS solution could get a company up to speed with content management in as little as two months. The J2EE-compliant software will be delivered with source code included, and provides a workflow-based engine for managing content on the intranet, extranet and Internet settings."
The article doesn't discuss whether it is Tomcat based or not, but did grow froma product acquired by RedHat from Ars Digita around 15 months ago. It will be initially available on Red Hat Linux, IBM AIX and Sun Solaris. (News from the AIIM Conference in MA.)
I think that historically, "trying to build the better mouse trap", has produced numbers of new and innovative products. It's very important to the future of technology that other companies evaluate the status quo and try to improve on it. If Microsoft or any other company can develop a search engine that better's Google approach, then that's great and we'll all use it.
Download the 3 install ISO's this morning at work at a 1.5MB/s rate. Had them in no time at all. Same with the Doc/Rescue ISO this afternoon, took about 10 minutes or so.

Ok, Taco -- let some of the rest of your team post some Evil dups while there's still time left today!
You've got to stay away from odd numbers, remember all the problems with everybody's 3.0 4.0 7.0 8.0 releases?
Oh no, those were the even numbers.......
What the Market Will Pay

LCD Price Fixing?

The subject is probably the answer. If people are willing to pay the current prices for the convenience of a flat LCD monitor to recoup deskspace then the price may very well be fair. I'm considering the same to replace my son's 17" Trinitron on his desk because it's huge and takes up too much room to give him space to work. The flat screen LCD would work perfectly. I suppose you could say "Price fixing" with the the apparent disparity between the LCD monitor and the total cost of a laptop -- but it's really comparing apples to oranges. Each have separate markets.
I've used this on several ocassions to show people interested in linux it's features on their own systems. They were impressed that no installation / partitioning was required and they could play without messing up their MS boxes.
I'll buy some paper, school supplies, emergency ink cartridge... from HomeDepot -- but never software from there. Not that I don't like them, but I just tend to shop on-line for software. So they appear to be minimizing their risk (maybe), and if it doesn't work, and enough people complaing that they can't find package "X", the next memo could change that philosophy. If HomeDepot doesn't have what I need, there several other similar stores in the same shopping center.
They refer to the April 7'th release date for non-RHN subscribers, but don't have any option to pre-order the new version. Doubt I'll order a copy, but that sure would have been a good idea.
The first salvo was a barrage of 40 tomahawk cruise missiles and attacks by F-15 airplanes in a surgical military strike against a "target of opportunity" near Baghdad, believed to include Iraqi leaders, U.S. officials said. Attacks on Iraq were not planned until a later time, but American intelligence revealed possible targets, so U.S. leaders decided to strike early, sources told ABCNEWS.
"On my orders, coalition forces have begun striking selected targets of military importance," President Bush said in an address to the nation.
"We have no ambition in Iraq except to remove a threat and restore control in that country to its own people," Bush said.
Air raid sirens began howling just before daybreak, followed by about 10 minutes of anti-aircraft fire, according to ABCNEWS' Richard Engel, who is in Baghdad.
Later, another series of explosions could be heard outside the city, and subsequent bursts of explosions erupted periodically.
It was unclear exactly what the missiles hit, but sources said they were "regime targets," perhaps palaces that house the Iraqi leadership.
First official word of the attacks came from White House press spokesman Ari Fleischer around 9:45 p.m. ET.
"The opening stages of the disarmament of the Iraqi regime have begun," Fleischer told reporters, before walking away from the podium.
Looks like an opportunity to hit Iraq command forces (maybe Saddam) prior to the main attack. Used cruise missles, dozen or so, along with F117 stealth fighhters. Apparently launch from the Persian Gulf area.

On GWB's orders, they are stricking selective targets, opening efforts of the war. Previously reported as an early opportunity for specific targets. Based on what GWB is saying right now, this is the start. Guess he gave the Hussein family 2 hours and 15 min. to spare...
From this point, he appears to have headed into the political speech.
Really said nothing else in the 4 minute disertation.
This is an excellent illustration of being extremely careful with the information you posess. And, as the subject indicates, who your friends are. If she considered the information to be somewhat sensitive in nature, then she could have easily: (1) kept it to herself for a future article or (2) maybe make it clear in the email to not redistribute. She obviously chose to do neither, which sort of opened the doors. Unfortunate that someone on her "distribution list" felt that everyone needed to know what went on at the World Economic Forum based on Laurie's experiences. From reading the email it really doesn't look like she has divulged any really serious world secrets. Another prime example of how to learn from one's mistakes.
I've been the proud owner of a Johnson Amplifer's J-Station for some time now which is also an amp modeler. Does a good job for $150 bucks, flash upgradeable and sounds great. Fully user programmable presets, and several internet sites have sysex files available for it.
I've also seen several wars going on between the owners of Line 6's and Johnson's offerings. But both really do a good job for the money.
