The Chinese Lunar Calendar is a solilunar calendar, consisting of months corresponding exactly to lunar cycles and years which stay more-or-less in sync with seasonal years. The structure of the calendar depends on the exact times of certain astronomical events, principally dark moons and winter solstices.
The solar calendar consists of a series of seasonal years which are divided into 24 "solar terms". The lunar calendar consists of a series of years which are divided into 12 or 13 lunar months. A solar year always begins at the (northern) winter solstice. A lunar month always begins on the day of a dark moon.
Chinese Calendrics is used to do the following:
To convert between dates in the Chinese solar and lunar calendars and dates in the Common Era and Julian calendars.
To calculate the date of New Year's Day in the Chinese lunar calendar.
To ascertain the Western dates of the starts of all lunar months in a year in the lunar calendar.
To find leap months in the lunar calendar.
To find the Western dates corresponding to Chinese anniversaries (e.g., birthdays).
To move forward or backward from a given date (and time) either by a period such as a month (Western or Chinese) or by any number of days.
To calculate the phase of the Moon for any time within a 6000-year period.
To search for the next or previous full moon, dark moon, lunar quarter, solar term or solstice or equinox of a certain type.
To search for a solstice or an equinox in combination with a dark moon or a full moon.
To search for the next or previous day, month or year with a certain element-animal correspondence (e.g., the next water-rabbit year or the next fire-chicken day).
To find days for which the element-animal is the same for day, month and year.

Multidom was originally commisioned by a client whose brief was simple - for us to design the fastest, most configurable domain name search engine in the World.
MultiDom supports multiple name queries, and up to 200+ TLDs. Plus, new TLDs can be added by administrators. Enter domain names with or without domain prefix or suffix, tailor its appearance, and configure a vast array of settings via a back-end administrator panel - including one click activation of inbuilt shopping cart capability.
One of MultiDoms strongest assets is the degree to which Administrators can easily configure both cosmetic and technical aspects of MultiDom, using a simple user interface via their web browser. Administrators may add new domains to Multidom as they become available, set limits on the amount of data entered to prevent swamping, set the default number of parallel searches, decide whether to allow the user to choose performance settings, decide whether to display a price for each domain, and if yes currency may be specified - and set the order that domains appear in the search results page. And much more!
A series of intelligent input intepreters and character filters ensures typing errors and illegal characters are dealt with accordingly.
MultiDom can be easily tailored by anyone with basic HTML skills in order to stay in keeping with an existing website design. Professional installation is an optional extra.

iSpellWell is an innovative new software product that helps children
master spelling. It includes 65 lessons for grades 1-5 and nearly 1000
words and sentences. Additional lessons can be added easily by typing
them in yourself or downloading them from the Internet.
The foundation of iSpellWell is an intuitive testing interface that
focuses on the individual child's performance. The more trouble a child
has with a particular word, the more the child is required to practice
that word. iSpellWell is designed to work with a students' weekly
spelling lessons. It uses state-of-the-art speech-to-text technology
and Microsoft's Agent Interface to provide a personal learning
experience for children. Little animated characters call children by
their first name and utter encouragement throughout the learning
process.
Although iSpellWell is a great product for individual students, it was
designed to take advantage of the relationships between schools,
students and parents. iSpellWell is founded on the idea that spelling
lessons should be shared between schools, teachers and students. Custom
spelling lessons are easily created and shared between users making it
a perfect software solution for schools and teachers. Groups of lessons
can be exported to a single file that can be sent to other users for
use on their computer. Because a single file is used to store a series
of lessons, it can be sent via diskette, e-mail or other network
communication. Lessons can even be shared over the Internet.
