Disney.com/camprock Is Mostly a Good Children’s Website

Disney has once again created another extension of their popular website Disney.com. At Disney.com/camprock, Disney Channel fans have access to all things “Camp Rock”. Camp Rock is one of Disney Channel’s newest tv movies.

Once on the website, Camp Rock fans have access to music, games, and more, all from the Camp Rock movie, currently being aired on Disney Channel at various times, as well as on Disney.com. Fans can even sign up, create their own profile, and chat with other members who also enjoy Disney’s Camp Rock.

I thought most of the features of the website were great and the graphics and interface, as with other Disney Channel websites, are pretty decent. After my perusal of the site, I did allow the kids to view certain portions with my supervision. They enjoyed the music I allowed them to hear and sang along, as they are regular fans of the Disney Channel and the Disney website.

As a parent though, I do have to take precaution, even with a trusted website such as Disney.com. I found a few of the song lyrics and dances to be a bit inappropriate for children. Most of the music videos were fine for a kid’s ears and eyes. But, a few were borderline, in my opinion. They weren’t completely off the wall, just a bit questionable. My children did not watch or listen to those particular songs.

When children are visiting websites, a parent or other caregiver or guardian needs to be watchful of what is going on. Allowing children to access the internet should not consist of a parent simply telling the child which websites are alright to view and walking away. More safety measures need to be taken.

For instance, as mentioned above the Camp Rock website allows members to chat, as well as interact through a public discussion board. This is where I would have to disagree with Disney.com. However, for you parents like me, all is not completely lost in this regard as far as the Disney Channel website is concerned.

plumpynut

My wife and I were watching the 60 minutes television show tonight and we were quite impressed by the story about Plumpynut and how it is saving so many children in third world countries.  If you’ve never heard of it before, don’t feel bad because we hadn’t heard of it either!  Plumpynut is a mixture of peanut butter, powdered milk, sugar and vitamins.  This is a great source of nutrition to be sent to a place where refrigeration is unavailable because it needs no refrigeration.  It is sweetened, so the kids love it.  I hope that someone teaches them to brush their teeth afterwards!

My wife says that If the economy around here gets much worse, we may have to resort to making our own Plumpynut to eat here at home!  I hope she was joking!

pitcairn island

The Pitcairn Islands (Pitkern: Pitkern Ailen), officially named the Pitcairn, Henderson, Ducie, and Oeno Islands, are a group of four islands, of which only Pitcairn Island — the second largest — is inhabited, in the southern Pacific Ocean, the only remaining British colony in the Pacific. The islands are best known for being the home of the descendants of the Bounty mutineers and the Tahitians who accompanied them, an event retold in numerous books and films. This story is still apparent in the surnames of many of the islanders. With only about fifty inhabitants (from nine families), Pitcairn is also famed for being the least populated country in the world (although it is not a sovereign nation). The United Nations Committee on Decolonization includes the Pitcairn Islands on the United Nations list of Non-Self-Governing Territories.
In the beginning of the year 2000 the Pitcairners are the busiest making their carvings and other things that they take out to the tour ships for sale. After the first day of the year 2000 there will be several ships that will be stopping at Pitcairn for a day or part of one. Some will have quite a few passengers aboard so they hope to make lots of sales. One of the ships to come by is the Russian ship Akademik Shuleikin. Captain of the ship stopped in a year or so ago, and really enjoyed it, and decided to make it one of his yearly stops.
The government is asking for an increase in the electric rates from 20c per kWh to 70 c per kWh, because of the increase of the island’s use and increase of the cost of shipping the fuel for the generators. Many are talking about going to bottled gas for the cooking stoves. As we now know, the electric rate was increased to 50 c starting January 1st 2000. The government will not be paying any of the costs of shipping to the island. All costs are to be paid for by the islanders. It will cost 6,000 pounds sterling for the ship to stop at Pitcairn plus US$3,000 for each container that they bring. All of the islanders are ordering as much of supplies they can afford before the new charges apply January 1st.

code geass r2 11

Kinda shivered at seeing Lelouch act so girly when alone with Rollo. Also, surprise kiss on Shirley gg!And this brings the end of the China arc for Geass R2. Of course our dear Zero is never without backup plans, and with some egging on of the Eunuchs, proclaiming they don’t care about the citizens and what not, Lelouch manages to inspire nationwide rebellions against them and takes the win, Xingke, Tianzi and China in one fell swoop, although poor Karen is now POW on Avalon, along with Guren. Sadly for poor Kallen, it looks like they’re not followers of the Geneva Convention.

With China in his hands, Lelouch decides to return to Area 11, no doubt worried about his aloof image falling in to further pieces, with Sayoko taking his place for the past week(?) or so. Unfortunately (or fortunately), he returns right in time to face a very, very confused Shirley, who has just gotten kissed by Sayoko-Lelouch and also the sudden transfer of Vino and Anya in to Ashford Academy. Cue the start of the school comedy plots.

Seriously, the writing for Geass is still crap, although the side effect is the show being unintentionally hilarious to the Zero-degree quite much makes up for things.
