This is well worth reading to get an insight into the good and bad management of state institutions in South Africa and the excessive power of organised crime over politicians and state employees who are susceptible having limited financial wealth and weak principles. The collapse of the top management structures of many state organisations - administrative and parastatals - is evident. In a country with a true democracy and a knowledgeable electorate this would not be allowed to continue. However the role of the "free press" seems to be severely compromised by incompetence of certain media and journalists to say the least.

I gave the Alter Ego set 4 stars because while I love the conditioner and the drops, the shampoo did not give me great results as I'd hoped for. The shampoo was very drying to my hair. I am a long time user and fan of the Alter Ego line of products and I use the garlic conditioner and drops on a regular basis. I will probably always use those 2 products because they are staples in my hair care regiment. The shampoo is not an item I will use again once I finish this bottle.

I'm only sorry that I didn't choose a 5 user package. It seems to do a fine job without slowing the machine down. I have labored with anti-virus products that are so slow I have been thoroughly exasperated with their effect on my use of the machine. Kaspersky doesn't seem to do this, although occasionally I am bewildered by pages it suggests that I not view because they are 'fishing' sites. I just go about getting the information from a different page, but it always surprises me when it does this. It does have a tendency to remind me why I have an anti-virus package though. As long as you remember that it will try to update itself first, don't try to turn on your machine and go, turn it on and go get your coffee. Then it will be updated and you won't be annoyed. It really doesn't take long to update though, seems to be leaner or better written than some other programs.

This is a great conditioner for my color treated hair. I leave it in overnight, and it really helps the dryness.
