children and to create online baby books. Baby Ace features an

With Baby Ace, parents can store records of their children from
pregnancy through high school. At the earliest stage during pregnancy,
expected moms can keep a daily diary of their experiences and
ultrasound pictures can be scanned in. After child birth, parents can
record their baby's first words (with audio), first steps, and they can
create growth charts with 3D line charts which can also be viewed on
the web.

As the child grows up, Baby Ace includes many areas to help parents
keep records. A medical records section is included which allows
parents to store their children's immunization dates, illnesses, and
physicians. Parents can also record what musical and sport activities
their children participated in and they can even store report cards
with both grades and scanned in cards. In addition, Baby Ace features
photo book areas where birthday, holiday, and vacation pictures can be
stored. Parents can easily scan pictures directly into Baby Ace and
apply digital effects to correct or enhance images.

Finally, Baby Ace offers links to an expanding number of parenting
sites. With its embedded browser, parents can quickly view sites with
baby names, parenting tips, toys, software, and more.

absence. It analyzes the surrounding noise permanently and plays your
own voice orders to quiet your dog when ever he barks or makes a loud
noise. Kiddyguard replaces chemical collars, training, and other costy
methods with a modern and a naturally stressless approach. No more
complaints from your neighbors, no more bad surprises on your return.
Your dog will adapt immediately to the program, and will remain calm and
peaceful. You can also program KiddyGuard to play your voice (or any
sound) periodically to comfort him. Your dog won't feel lonely again!

On your return, KiddyGuard can display an interactive graph showing all
the noise events that occurred. You can see the noise time, its level
and you can mostly hear the noise. A simple click on any peak will
replay the noise that generated a voice order. Now you will be able to
know why, when, and what exactly happened during your absence.
KiddyGuard saves all sessions automatically. The drag and drop feature
allows you to easily recall any recorded session, including its graph,
noise time and levels, recorded audio files, statistics, etc.
