Abstract: A system comprising a client that can place a network site access request to a network access server. In use, prior to placing the request, the client accesses the network access server to set up a network access profile relating to personal choices and accesses a trusted site to select options to provide a trusted site profile. When the client places a request, client data is provided along with the request whereby the client is automatically recognized by the server. Upon recognition, the server passes the client data to the trusted site, the trusted site uses the client data to retrieve the client's trusted site profile, which is then transferred to the server. A combining engine in the server then combines the trusted site profile with the network access profile and a filtering engine applies the combined profiles to permit or forbid the network site request to be fulfilled.

Abstract: A method provides and apparatus for recovering and revegetating shorelines subjected to low to moderate wave energy and other terrains subject to erosion processes. Biodegradable, cardboard sheet material formed with an array of projections and depressions over the entire surface of the material is utilized. A plurality of plant-receiving and letting apertures are formed in the sheet in accordance with predetermined plant density requirements. The sheet material is formed with plant nutrients suspended in it and is further provided with a hydrophobic composition coating for delaying biodegradation. The surface pattern formed on the sheet dissipates wave energy, traps sand and sediment, and prevents plant washout. The sheet material is secured to the surface by a plurality of biodegradable stakes.
