The two boys who opened for Hollywood star Jack Black's band on Tuesday night may already have a recording contract in their sights.
The boys performed a set for Tenacious D in Christchurch, and now an Auckland based businessman is offering to give the boys a free recording.
"I'd like to do one really good single for them, and see if we can't get them launched into a career," Ian Stone says.
Alex Philpot, 10, and Max Tetley, 11, were discovered by Black while busking in Christchurch on Monday. Philpot says their rendition of Along The Watchtower went down very well with the 2,000-strong crowd.
He says he had initially planned to be a pilot but he is definitely becoming a rock star now.
The one-off Christchurch gig has attracted lot of attention.
"They've had three offers - from recording contracts to the Big Day Out, and we understand that they're going out on three channels in America. So they've suddenly become a world wide sensation," Alex's father Kevin says.
But the boys' parents say they will just wait and see if any offers turn into contracts.

will this interface stop all of my audio from making a fuzzing sound when i record, and when i play the song?
- Asked by Justin B
Apogee ONE USB Music Interface and Microphone
Product No Longer Available
1 Answer from the Community
Due to the high quality audio convertor on this interface , any signal from the mic or line inputs will result in a professional sounding recording .
The best way to check the playback is via headphones if you have any "fuzzing sound" as this removes any other potential audio problems , such as your external amplifier or speakers .

The best way to understand Ball State senior linebacker Travis Freeman's football journey -- and his mission -- is to let Freeman's own words tell the story. Talking and tackling are his specialties. Tackles are an unofficial stat, but Freeman is unofficially the NCAA's active leader in career tackles with 432, 28 more than Notre Dame linebacker and Heisman Trophy candidate Manti Te'o. Also unofficial but important to Freeman is his role as an ambassador, a proud member of the fraternity of Cleveland Glenville High School graduates playing football at a higher level and paving the way for the next group, as well. Freeman isn't going to be Glenville's next first-round NFL draft pick next spring. He probably won't be drafted at all, and he's fine with that. Besides helping Ball State finish what's been a successful season thus far on a high note, Freeman sees one of his top priorities as furthering what Glenville coach Ted Ginn Sr. has been doing for more than a decade, taking kids wh...

As 1010 WINS' Gary Baumgarten reported, leaders of the black and Jewish communities joined together Sunday on the steps of Brooklyn Supreme Court to repudiate the violent "knockout game."
The game — in which youths sucker-punch unsuspecting strangers for kicks — has seen black assailants attack a number of Jewish victims. On Dec. 1, however, Taj Patterson, a 22-year-old black man, said he was beaten by a group of Hasidic Jews in Williamsburg.
Forgive me but I can't back this up with any online confirmations as of yet.
10 10 WINS the AM radio station that gives news weather and traffic in NYC is reporting that the Jewish community has joined the game last night. They are saying that a group of Jewish guys attacked a black guy in the city, possibly playing the knock out game.
If this is true it's going to start something that could get out of control really fast. As soon as I can find any more information I'll put links here. Anyone who can find out anything else please share, I'd like to hear the whole story..
Wow if this is true, this could easily escalate to something bigger. We all know that hate crimes against black people get blown out of proportion. While the knockout game was getting marginalized while it was against white people, now it could get ugly if people like Jesse Jackson or Al Sharpton start speaking up on the black people's behalf. In other words this could be the start of a race war.
It is an alarming trend that is spurring outrageous incidents across the country. It is deplorable, reprehensible and inexcusable. It is insane thuggery, and it is unequivocally wrong. These kids are targeting innocent people, and in many cases specifically targeting Jewish folks. We would not be silent if it were the other way around, and we will not be silent now. This behavior is racist, period. And we will not tolerate it.

Devils coach: 'You have two choices: you roll over and die or you get up tomorrow'
Apr 10, 2013, 11:10 PM EDT
The New Jersey Devils managed to get back into a game that started off 4-0 on Wednesday, eventually losing to the Boston Bruins 5-4. Moral victories aside, the team's on an eight-game losing streak, prompting head coach Peter DeBoer to demand more fight from the team, as he told The Bergen Record's Tom Gulitti.
"You know the spot you're in and you have two choices – you roll over and die or you get up tomorrow and you find a way to turn one win into six or seven or whatever it's going to take," DeBoer said.
Glad you (kind of) asked, coach.
Sports Club Stats' numbers indicate that the Devils would have to put the following type of run together to have better than a coin flip's chance of making the 2013 playoffs:*
6-2-0 finish: 56.5 percent chance.
5-0-3 finish: 75.1 percent chance
6-1-1 finish: 80.3 percent chance
To save you a click or three, here's the team's remaining schedule:
Friday: home vs. Ottawa
April 15: at Toronto
April 18: at Philadelphia
April 20: home vs. Florida
April 21: at New York Rangers
April 23: home vs. Montreal
April 25: home vs. Pittsburgh
April 27: home vs. New York Rangers
Surely the Rangers wouldn't want to spoil the Devils' playoff bid if it came down to it, would they?
* – Then again, some Devils fans might be crossing their fingers for them to lose as many games as possible considering how much the team seems to depend upon Ilya Kovalchuk.
- martysbetter - Apr 10, 2013 at 11:20 PM
Roll over and die, please – no point in trying to limp into the playoffs with a half-injured Kovalchuk to get swept in the first round.
How's the draft looking this year?
- trbowman - Apr 10, 2013 at 11:42 PM
Good thing they didn't have that attitude last year when they made the Cup as the 6th seed. Same with the Kings, who made it as an 8th seed and won the damn thing.
This ain't the NBA. Any of the 16 teams that qualify have a shot at hoisting Lord Stanley.
- esracerx46 - Apr 10, 2013 at 11:20 PM
"Roll over and die, or get up tomorrow" Doesnt sound like the devils are going to be getting much sleep. 1 player (Parise) cant make that much of a difference can he? Sure the year he was hurt they sucked and got the number 3 pick. Came back and went to the finals. But if 1 player was of that much importance something is wrong. Then again when you have the same goalie for 20 years but fail to plan for the inevitable retirement something is definitely wrong. Lookin at you Lou.
- martysbetter - Apr 10, 2013 at 11:25 PM
The team was 1st in the East without Parise – sh*t hit the fan when Marty got hurt and then Kovalchuk got hurt the game Marty came back.
- jb8383 - Apr 11, 2013 at 10:47 AM
I am so sick of hearing how it's because we lost Parise. Everyone is forgetting that we were without Marty for like 13 games and the game Marty came back is the game Kovy got hurt. When both Marty and Kovy were playing at this beginning of this season we were playing very well. Imagine if the Rangers lost Lundqvist for 13 games, and then lost Nash… I highly doubt they would be in a playoff spot.

sorry meant to hit reply the comment above yours.

heh we usually manage to go aaginst the odds lets do it this year…… by winning the draft lottery
- gbditka - Apr 10, 2013 at 11:31 PM
Hey Petey DeBoer, this is what happens when you warm your ass off yesterday's sunshine! Is it you or the talent Lou put in your control?
- martysbetter - Apr 11, 2013 at 8:20 AM
Depends if you consider "talent" 1 sniper (Kovy) 1 playmaker (Elias) and a bunch of big grinders who are 3rd and 4th line tweeners.

DeBoer Giguere has another choice for you: Vegas Baby!
- dipspit55 - Apr 11, 2013 at 12:53 AM
We don't have a first rounder this year we aren't done yet still fight in these guys we will make the playoffs stop giving up on your team
- stakex - Apr 11, 2013 at 1:34 AM
While not official, the Devils are in fact done.
They need to go AT LEAST 6-1-1, and I think 7-1 is more realistic personaly. Thats a tall order for a team thats just lost eight games in a row. The odds of them turning it around like that are nill at best… and even then they would need serious help from the teams in front of them. If the Devils go 6-1-1, they still need two of the teams they are chasing to play .500 hockey or worse from here on in (which is more likely then the Devils going 6-1-1, but still no certainty).
- devilsarethebest - Apr 11, 2013 at 2:55 AM
we have a first rounder this hear, however we must forfeit a first rounder this year or next hear so we can have our first pock this year. fingers crossed, we win the lottery
- nyt84 - Apr 11, 2013 at 10:48 AM

Ergonomically-Correct 'Wellbeing Toilet' Helps You Poop the Right Way
The toilet, ubiquitous as it is, hasn't changed much in design or function since indoor plumbing became a thing.

The winning design is the Wellbeing Toilet – the world's first ergonomically-correct loo. Designed by three Central Saint Martin's (CSM) graduates, this toilet could actually reduce the risk of intestinal cancer and haemorrhoids.

Hi guys! How are you?
So, we're getting to a final result on the Minha Sampa brand, and now we need your help to get going!
We decided to take a crowdsourced path, that follows the concept that São Paulo is a city of everyone, and every person has one SP of its own. So, to do that, we need a lot of "MINHAS".
If you could, please, help with anything that you can (it could be just the written work, some type of collage, illustration, anything that shows your individuality), it would be awesome!
Here is the download link for the vector file: http://cl.ly/0M3P3c120x2F
If you want just the image, see the attached one.
We really need you to get this concept going!
You can send your collaboration to email@example.com or reply here.
Thanks a lot for the attention and collaboration!

Picture: Kelly Brook 'Keith Lemon the Film' World premiere held at the Odeon West End - After Party at Planet Hollywood London, England - 20.08.12
Kelly Brook stole the show at Keith Lemon's movie premiere in London's Leicester Square last night (August 20, 2012). The British model arrived for the event in a floor length mesh dress alongside boyfriend Thom Evans, and of course, Keith himself, reports the UK's Metro newspaper.
The 32-year-old - who stars in the comedian's latest adventure - turned heads in Central London with the show-stopping number. Later at the after-party at Planet Hollywood in Haymarket, Brook changed into a hot red dress, teamed with sparkling heels and a matching silver bag. Before making her way to the venue, Kelly tweeted, "Omg!!! So many of you turned up for Klp thank you thank you thank you!!! Amazing xxxxxxxxxxx", before adding, "I'm at the Party and Keith is in his underpants for no reason whatsoever!! And they have his face on?". Keith - played by Yorkshire born comedian Leigh Francis - was also joined by his real-life girlfriend Rosie Parker, as well as close pal Fearne Cotton. Singing star Billy Ocean had also attended the premiere, as had 'The Only Way is Essex' stas Cara Kilbey and Billi Mucklow.
'Keith Lemon: The Film' is released in the UK on August 24, 2012. It also features Verne Troyer and HOLLY WILLOUGHBY.

Not to be outdone by the slew of Apple announcements this month, BlackBerry teamed up with Porsche Design to create the new, sleek and stylish P'9983. Like the exclusivity involved with owning a luxury car, the Porsche Design BlackBerry comes with several special features to set owners apart from other BlackBerry users.
In news that might excite some folks just as much as the iPhone 6 or Apple Watch, the Ferrari FF (short for Ferrari Four, its powerhouse four-seater) will be the first luxury car to feature Apple's CarPlay. The system was revealed at the Geneva Motor Show in March and was designed to make smartphones safe to use while driving. Users can search, message and call using intuitive hands-free technology, and will also have access to iTunes, Apple maps, and a very select few of third-party apps that meet Apple's safety requirements.
In case you missed it, the Hennessey Venom F5 is on its way and judging by the auto brand's anticipated top speed exceeding 290mph, it'll be here before you know it. As the Venom GT's successor, the F5 was named after the highest tornado rank on the Fujita scale (an F5 means winds up to 318mph) and features a "bold, lower-drag shape, additional power and enhanced technology."
Polaris may already be known for their snowmobiles and off-road cars, but now they've added their very first three-wheeler to their repertoire. Earlier in the week they unveiled their new Polaris Slingshot, a motorcycle with three wheels and a lot of power.
Last week Chevrolet announced that their 2015 Corvette Z06 is getting a suggested retail price tag of $78,995, while the convertible version will retail for $83,995—pretty fair considering Chevrolet is hailing the Z06 as the "most powerful and technologically advanced model in the iconic car's 62-year history."
Gooding & Company saw some pretty big profits last weekend at their two-day Pebble Beach luxury auto auction where they realized over $106 million. The official auction house of the Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance apparently sold 107 of their 121 lots, with the average price per car being $990,699 (they even sold 30 cars for over one million), and an overall 88 percent sale rate. To make the auction even more impressive, 16 new records were set for Ferrari, Aston Martin, and Porsche.
Airstream announced today that they are adding another model to their touring couch lineup, the new Interstate Grand Tour. Promising tons of space to please any discerning luxury traveler, the luxury auto has plenty of counter space, storage, a workspace and optional screen doors. Plus, this one isn't overwhelming in size, which makes it great for a first-time buyer or for someone looking for a cozier coach.
The Renovo Coupe, the flagship luxury car from Renovo Motors, was officially introduced to the world today at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance and is being hailed as the "first all-electric American supercar." With its 0-60 time of 3.4 seconds, 1,000 foot/pounds of direct-drive torque, and its super fast charge time of 30 minutes (making it circuit-ready), we know we're not the only ones excited for the Renovo Coupe's 2015 production.
It seems like celebrities are always in competition with one another (whether it's real or media-created), from who has the best body to who is reigning the selfie world (well, maybe Kim Kardashian is the only one who cares about that). One way to launch yourself above the rest is to get a really amazing luxury car, since the automotive world is still one of the best ways to show your status.
In the last few years, Rolls-Royce has had great success in appealing to a larger North American consumer base— specifically female and younger customers—through the introduction of new models such as the first Ghost model in 2009 and Wraith in 2013. Unsurprisingly the United States as a whole remains one of the most significant individual markets for Rolls-Royce, with a handful of areas experiencing remarkable record-breaking growth in the last year alone. But do you know what goes into the craftsmanship of each car?
Lexus is celebrating their 25th anniversary with a new limited edition Crafted Line of luxury cars, which are set to debut at the 2014 Pebble Beach Concours d'Elegance August 15-17. Not satisfied with just the autos, Lexus also partnered with TUMI to create a special luggage collection to go with their new motorized beauties.
The MINI Superleggera Vision is, to put it simply, adorable. I know, my femininity is showing by calling it that, but come on, it is! Ever since this elegant one-off design was revealed back in May we've been drooling over the pictures in much the same way we've been drooling over the new Outlander cast.
Most luxury car marquees offer several different ways to test their autos out before actually buying one, including private consumer driving events and loan programs, because we all know that test driving a car through the dealership is less than ideal—if I wanted to feel judged while driving a car I'd drive with my great-aunt. Porsche Destination Drives are some of the newest driving opportunities, currently touring five select Forbes Travel Guide Five-Star hotels. The experience allows guests of the hotels the chance to take one of four vehicles out on the town to create their own personal driving route.
Global Caravan Technologies (GCT) takes luxury seriously and they're proving it with the CR-1 Carbon. As the first of many planned vehicles in the company's CR-Series, the carbon fiber caravan is 35 feet long, eight feet wide, over 10 feet tall, and weighs 6,500 pounds—in other words, it's going to make your neighbor's camper look like a joke.

Reigning Watford Player of the Season Tommy Smith was unable to claim the Goal of the Season accolade as well almost a year ago, but could Tamas Priskin be in line to complete the rare double?
Only three previous Watford players – Glyn Hodges, Tommy Mooney and Heidar Helguson – have lifted both awards in the same year, but the Hungarian striker is among the early front-runners in both categories.
More than 500 votes have already been counted, including the away fans who had their say on the coaches to Doncaster on Saturday, but much could rest on who the players support among their peers.
The early indications are that Priskin, who ended his five-game sequence without a goal in Tuesday night's 2-2 draw with Southampton, faces competition from Smith, Lloyd Doyley and the young triumvirate of Jack Cork, Ross Jenkins and Scott Loach for the players' prestigious Watford Observer trophy.
Three of the forward's 13 strikes are also polling strongly for the top goal of the campaign – his two cup efforts against Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur, plus his finish against Nottingham Forest.
But this category is shaping up to be an Eastern European-dominated one, as Grzegorz Rasiak is also receiving strong backing for two memorable strikes from the edge of the penalty area – at home to Crystal Palace in the FA Cup and at Charlton Athletic.
There is still time for the picture to change though, as votes are being constantly counted ahead of Tuesday's midnight deadline.

I know Smithy hasn't performed as well in recent games whilst Priskin has hit form so maybe that will sawy the votes.
The bloke behind me won't be happy if Doyley wins (seems to blame poor Lloyd for anything..sometimes when the incident is over the other side of the pitch and he gets mixed up with Mariappa)

l-l. Purpose. This manual provides guidance for incorporating
environmental considerations into the engineering, design, construction,
operation, and maintenance of coastal shore protection projects.
l-2. Applicability. The manual is applicable to all Corps field
operating activities having civil works responsibilities in the area of
coastal shore protection.
l-3. Scope. Selection of the best environmental and engineering solution
to a specific coastal problem reguires a systematic and thorough study
because of the complexity of coastal projects and the diversity of coastal
environments. The prerequisites to such a study are a clear definition of
the problem and cause of the problem and then a comprehensive review of
potential solutions (alternatives). This manual addresses both natural
and human-induced changes in the coastal zone; the structural and
nonstructural measures that coastal engineers employ against these
changes; and the beneficial and adverse impacts of these measures.
Immediate and long-term impacts in the project area, as well as adjacent
environments, are summarized. In addition, this manual emphasizes
potential steps for obtaining desirable results and reducing adverse
impacts. The manual focuses primarily on shore protection, i.e., coastal
projects designed to stabilize the shore against erosion related
principally to current and wave action: however, the material is also
applicable to harbor and navigation channel improvements. The manual
applies to both the Great Lakes and the coastal marine systems. It
identifies the principal environmental factors that should be considered
in design and construction and provides techniques for attaining
environmental quality objectives. Proper techniques for collection,
analysis, and interpretation of environmental data to use in planning and
engineering are outlined. This manual is intended to be compatible and
used in conjunction with other OCE engineering manuals and the Coastal
Engineering Research Center's "Shore Protection Manual" (US Army Engineer
Waterways Experiment Station 1984). As new information becomes available,
this manual will be periodically revised.

2-1. Classification. Coastal shore protection projects are classified into
four general categories in the "Shore Protection Manual:"
a. Shoreline stabilization.
b. Backshore protection (from waves and surge).
C. Inlet stabilization.
d. Harbor protection.
A coastal problem may fall into one or more categories.
2-2. Alternatives. Once the project is identified, various alternatives are
available to the coastal engineer. These alternatives involve the placement
or removal of sediment, rock, wood, or other material to create new struc-
tures, to modify existing structures, or to physically alter the shore in some
manner. In this manual, potential alternatives have been grouped into three
categories: protective beaches, dunes, and levees; man-made structures; and
nonstructural alternatives (Table 2-l). While this manual primarily addresses
these three action alternatives, information presented will also be useful in
evaluating passive solutions such as coastal zoning and land-use management.
Dredging, a potential solution to inlet stabilization problems, and envi-
ronmental considerations for this activity are addressed in EM 1110-2-1202
(see para l-4). Mitigation policy for Federal projects is summarized in
ER 1105-2-50. Chapter 8 of this manual provides an additional discussion of
2-3. Considerations.
a. Table 2-2 lists the factors that must be considered in analyzing each
project category and its associated considerations. Hydraulic considerations
include wind-generated waves, swells, currents, tides, storm surge or wind
setup, and the basic bathymetry of the area. Sedimentation considerations
include the littoral material and processes (i.e., direction of movement, net
and gross rates of transport, and sediment classification and characteris-
tics), and changes in shore alignment. Control structure considerations
include the selection of the protective works by evaluating type, use, effec-
tiveness, economics, and environmental impact. Navigation considerations
include the design craft or vessel data, traffic lanes, channel depth, width,
length, and alignment. In selecting the shape, size, and location of shore
protection works, the objective should be not only to design an engineering
work that will accomplish the desired results most economically, but also to
consider effects on adjacent areas. An economic evaluation includes the main-
tenance and replacement costs, along with the interest on and the amortization
of the first costs. If any plan considered would potentially increase the

impact of a project to a larger coastal stretch or prevent an extension of the
impacts, the economic effect of each such consequence should be evaluated. A
convenient measurement for comparing various plans on an economic basis is the
average annual cost over the evaluation period and the average annual benefit
captured by each plan.
b. Effects on adjacent land areas are considered to the extent of pro-
viding the required protection with the least amount of disturbance to current
and future land use, ecological factors, and aesthetics of the area. The
form, texture, and source of material should be considered in the design, as
well as how the material is used. Proper consideration must be given to the
legal and social consequences where shore protection measures may result in
significant effects on physical or ecological aspects of the environment.
c. Coordination between the design and environmental elements should
begin early in the planning process to assure that environmental concerns,
opportunities, and features are adequately considered.
CHAPTER 3 10 Jul 89
3-l. Environmental Requirements.
a. General. As noted in Table 2-2, the "Environment" is a
consideration in each coastal shore protection project category. The
environmental effects of all project alternatives must, by law as well as
normal engineering considerations, be evaluated. Opportunities for
incorporating environmental considerations and enhancements in coastal
shore protection projects should be investigated.
b. Policies. The planning, design, construction, and operation and
maintenance activities of coastal shore protection projects must be
consistent with national environmental policies. Those policies require
that such activities be done to the extent practicable in such a manner as
to be in harmony with the human and natural environment, and to preserve
historical and archaeological resources. Corps project development is
documented by a series of studies, each being more specific than the
previous study. The series of reports produced for a project varies by
Corps District and Division and through time due to scientific judgment,
the unique conditions specific to each project, and changing regulations.
In general, an initial evaluation (or reconnaissance) report and a
feasibility (or survey) report are prepared prior to congressional project
authorization. Refer to ER 1105-2-10, for a description of this planning
process. Environmental studies are included along with engineering,
economic, and other types of analysis (ER 1105-2-50).
C. Statutes and Regulations. Complying with Federal statutes,
executive orders and memoranda, and Corps regulations requires careful
study of existing environmental conditions and those expected to occur in
the future with and without shore protection. Principal environmental
statutes/regulations that are applicable to Corps coastal shore protection
projects arelisted in Appendix C.
d. Environmental Studies. During each stage of project planning,
design and construction, major environmental concerns and corresponding
information needs should be identified. Forecasting of information needs
is necessary in order to schedule sufficient time for field data
collection, physical or numerical modeling if needed, and other needs.
Scheduling of field studies should allow for administrative time related
to contract preparation, contractor selection, report and NEPA document
preparation, review of findings, and coordination or consultation with
concerned Federal agencies and the interested public.
(1) Checklist of studies. The following checklist consists of some
of the environmental factors that should be considered for coastal shore
protection projects. Environmental factors selected for study will depend
upon the type project being considered. This checklist is not all
inclusive and not all factors are appropriate for all projects.
10 Jul 89
(a) Determine the bounds of the project areas.
(b) Characterize existing environmental (physical, ecological,
cultural, economic conditions at a project site.
(c) Be aware of other planned construction activities likely to be
associated with the Federal project and evaluate their cumulative impacts.
(d) Evaluate project effects on long-shore sedimentation processes,
circulation patterns, currents, and wave action.
(e) Evaluate project effects on water quality, including
characterization and testing of sediments as required in Section 103 of
the Ocean Dumping Act (PL 92-532) or Section 404 of the Clean Water Act
(PL 92-500) evaluations.
(f) Evaluate the no action alternative and nonstructural solutions.
(g) Evaluate project effects on erosion and deposition.
(h) Evaluate all reasonable and practicable construction alternatives
(construction equipment, timing, etc.).
(i) Evaluate effects of the final array of alternative plans on
significant biological, aesthetic, cultural and recreational resources.
(j) Describe relationships of each plan to the requirements of
environmental laws, executive orders, Federal permits and state and local
land use plans and laws.
(k) Include feasibledesigns, operational procedures, and appropriate
mitigation measures to reduce or avoid adverse environmental impacts in
the preferred plan and alternatives evaluated.
(l) Coordinate with other agencies, the public, and private groups.
(m) Plan and design an environmental monitoring program as needed.
(2) Critical issues. Time and money constraints will generally
dictate the level and scope of investigation and data collection for all
environmental areas of interest. Therefore, the most significant
environmental issues identified by the public and resource agencies during
scoping should be investigated. It is essential that the issues
investigated fully account for all significant effects of a project and
that a realistic balance be achieved between the study requirements and
funds available. The addition of factors determined at a later date will
increase the time, cost, and expertise required for the study.
10 Jul 89
Chapters 4, 5, and 6 of this manual identify major environmental
considerations associated with alternative shore protection solutions.
Criteria for determining significant issues include statutory
requirements, executive orders, agency regulations and guidelines, and
other institutional standards of regional and local interest. (see
Appendix C).
(3) Environmental monitoring. The Council on Environmental Quality
regulations at 40 CFR 1505.3 state that agencies may provide for
monitoring to assure that their decisions are carried out and should do so
in important cases and upon request, make available to the public the
results of relevant monitoring. The 40 CFR 1505.2 also states that a
monitoring and enforcement program shall be adopted and summarized where
applicable. The term "environmental monitoring" as defined in ER 200-2-2
is that oversight activity necessary to ensure that the decision,
including required mitigation measures, is implemented. Environmental
monitoring as discussed in Chapter 7 of this manual refers to the overall
process of data collection, management, analysis and interpretation of
short and long term changes over the life of the project and analysis are
discussed in Chapter 7 of this manual.
(4) Each study must have well-defined, detailed objectives prior to
field data collection. The study design should include a rationale for
hypotheses to be tested, the variables to be monitored, techniques and
equipment to be used, sample station locations and frequencies, and data
storage and analysis. Monitoring may extend beyond water quality and
ecological studies and include monitoring noise, emission from equipment
engines, cultural resources, archeological resources, etc., if deemed
(a) Environmental studies during early stages of project formulation
should emphasize identification of resources, development of an evaluation
framework, and collection of readily available information for all
potential alternatives. Resources likely to be impacted should be
investigated, and additional data needs should be identified.
(b) Detailed analysis of a project occurs after evaluations narrow
the range of specific alternatives to the most feasible (usually three or
four) which have been selected for study. Beneficial and adverse
environmental effects of each alternative should be quantified where
possible or qualified in adequate detail so they can be included with the
economic and technical analysis to compare and select the plan that
maximizes NED benefits. Although a preferred alternative can be
identified at this stage, formal selection of an alternative for
construction must await the completion and agency review of the
Environmental Impact Statement or Environmental Assessments. In this way
the Corps, the public, and outside agencies have the benefit of a full
evaluation of all feasible alternatives and a comparison of them by the
lead agency. Post-construction monitoring, if authorized, should also be
done to verify the impact predictions made during without project
analysis. Where monitoring reveals the presence of unexpected impacts,
measures should be considered to minimize the impacts.

3-2. Environmental Resource Categories. The remainder of this chapter
summarizes the environmental resource categories that should be considered
in evaluating the coastal shore protection alternatives. The six
categories are physical, water quality, biological, recreational,
aesthetic, and cultural.
3-3. Physical.
a. General. The physical modifications of the environment from
coastal shore protection projects can result in both desirable and
undesirable impacts. Many adverse impacts can be avoided by evaluating
alternatives for siting and design. Consideration of physical impacts
must occur during both the design stage and impact assessment stage.
b. Physical Design Considerations. Structural and, to a lesser
extent, nonstructural measures have the potential of altering the
hydrodynamic regime (circulation) and the hydraulic and wave energy
conditions of the project area. Furthermore, construction frequently
alters the shoreline configuration and/or bathymetry at the project site
and occasionally up or down coast, by modifying the littoral transport
system. In many instances these modifications are the objective of the
design process. The purpose of a shoreline breakwater project is to
reduce wave energy entering a harbor, marina, or other facilities. Groin
projects and jetty construction result in modification of the littoral
transport regime. If the project is not properly designed, adverse
physical impacts, such as changes in shoreline configuration (shore
erosion) or changes in bathymetry (navigation channel infilling), my
occur. These impacts should be identified during the impact assessment
stage and, if necessary, the project redesigned or relocated to minimize
unwanted effects, such as excessive maintenance dredging and beach
c. Physical Impact Assessment. Physical impacts can occur on both a
short-term and long-term basis. Short-term impacts are generally
construction related (i.e., short sections of a beach may be temporarily
restricted during the fill and grading operations). During a beach
nourishment project or dune construction, sands can become compacted
altering transport phenomena. Physical effects from construction of
breakwaters, jetties, groins, piers, or other nearshore structures stem
from rock placement, jetting or driving piles, dredging to a solid bed or
required depth, and other on site construction activities. Following the
completion of these activities, impacts usually diminish rapidly (Naqvi
and Pullen 1982, Van Dolah et al. 1984). Long-term impacts may be more
important and more difficult to predict. Several tools will help in
assessing potential adverse impacts: interviews with long-time residents,
review of old aerial photos, on site monitoring, case studies of similar
projects numerical models, and physical models. Using any or all of
these tools, an evaluation of potential changes in circulation patterns,
flushing conditions, and sediment transport phenomena should be
10 Jul 89
completed. Other studies of physical factors may be warranted on a
case-by-case basis.
3-4. Water Qualitv.
a. General. Unlike physical impacts, water quality impacts involve
changes in the water column's characteristics rather than changes in
shoreline configuration or local bathymetry. Again the impacts are
manifested on both a short-term and long-term basis.
b. Water Quality Design Considerations. The construction process is
often responsible for increases in local turbidity levels, changes in
salinity, releases of toxicants or biostimulants from fill materials,
introduction of petroleum products, and/or the reduction of dissolved
oxygen levels. These impacts can be minimized by modifying or selecting
specific construction practices, carefully selecting fill materials, and
in some instances by construction scheduling. These impacts are
short-lived, and ambient water quality conditions will rapidly return
unless long-term changes in the hydrodynamics and hydraulics have
occurred. It is these long-tern impacts that must be identified during
the design process. In addition to the general impacts of the selected
alternatives (whether structural or nonstructural), the proposed design
specifications of any selected alternative also have the potential for
affecting water quality. For example, the design of an off-shore
breakwater (length, height, water depth, spacing) will greatly influence
its impact on circulation and flushing and thus its impact on water
c. Water Quality Impact Assessment. The long-term impact on water
quality of nonstructural alternatives, i.e., planting beach grasses for
dune stabilization, marsh grasses for bank stabilization, and seagrasses
for bottom sediment stabilization, is generally negligible, whereas
structural alternatives have a range of potential impacts. The range is a
function of the location, size, and type of structure. In general, groins
have the least potential for water quality impacts. Because groins change
local patterns of water circulation, some changes in specific water
quality parameters may occur, but these impacts are minimal for most groin
projects. The water quality effects of bulkheads and seawalls are similar
in that both will reduce erosion of the backshore and decrease local
levels of suspended solids. Revetments, similarly to bulkheads and
seawalls, may promote erosion of the foreshore and increase levels of
suspended solids but to lesser extent. On the other hand, these
structures may reduce overall levels of suspended solids by preventing
erosion of uplands and backshore materials. Jetties and breakwaters have
the greatest potential impact on circulation and flushing. The placement
of jetties my not only alter circulation patterns and flushing
conditions, as well as erosion and deposition patterns, but may also alter
both river outflow and tidal conditions. These impacts may be of
consequence well into the estuary and may have widespread effects, such as
10 Jul 89
changing salinity and circulation patterns. Breakwaters, by definition,
are wave energy barriers designed to protect landforms or harbor-
behind them. These off-shore structures also often influence circulation
and flushing action in their lee. If the breakwater is constructed to
form a semienclosed basin for use as a harbor or marina, the flushing
conditions of the project area may be dramatically altered. Assessment
and evaluation of water quality impacts must begin in the planning stage
and continue at least through the design stage. Postconstruction
monitoring may also be recommended to provide feedback for future
d. Other Contaminants. Activities involving sediments or other
construction materials known to contain chemical toxins should be
conducted with special precautions to avoid unnecessary chemical release
into the water body. Of particular concern would be potential
introduction of chemical agents either during preparation, application, or
cleanup of construction equipment. Chemical cleaning agents may also
contain toxic compounds. Little is known about the potential affects of
these compounds on aquatic organisms even in trace amounts. Howev

7 Things You May Not Know About Jesus
Surprising facts about Him
Surprising facts about Him
"I'd like to sketch out seven things that many Christians may not know about their Lord," writes author Frank Viola. "My book , Jesus: A Theography written with Leonard Sweet, contains many more which I believe you will enjoy."
Viola is a popular conference speaker and the bestselling author of numerous books on the deeper Christian life, including Epic Jesus, Revise Us Again, From Eternity to Here and Jesus Manifesto. His blog, "Beyond Evangelical," is rated as one of the most popular in Christian circles today. "The Old Testament points forward to Him," he writes. "The New Testament points back to Him. But all Scripture points to Him, as Jesus said in John 5:39."
Here are some of Sweet and Viola's surprising facts about Jesus:

Product description
This work is a study of the life and work of Jane Austen, who sprang from the upper-middle class society of late 18th-century southern England. Self-contained, orthodox in morals and religion, depending for its strength on the professions and on the ownership of the land - this was the milieu in which she spent her life and which she describes so memorably in her novels. Her environment provided her with material ideally suited to her talents: accurate observation of character, wit, dramatic intuition, an ear for realistic dialogue and a highly disciplined formal sense. The author provides a study of Jane Austen's work, her letters, (which are quoted) and her period.

Editorial reviews
As charming and lucid as this tiny drawing-room biography is, it comes as something of a skimpy disappointment after previous, more substantial volumes in the illustrated. . . and his/her World series (see Osborne's Wagner, p. 400). First published in 1969 under the same title - and still in print as of last year - Laski's portrait is done in pastels, with all perspectives slanting in on Miss Jane's (not being the eldest, 'twas never "Miss Austen"!) life at home rather than her life in print. Drawing heavily on Jane's effusive but admittedly impersonal letters, Laski laces up the labyrinthine family connections with the south-of-England county society doings: the pursuit of dowered brides; the nurse-comforter-teacher role of the spinster daughter-sister-aunt (Jane excelled in ali capacities); the highly mockable raw material that made it possible for Jane to write her human comedies without ever leaving home. The publication of each novel is duly noted, but criticism is eschewed - though Laski's sure scholarship surfaces now and again as she suggests a few character sources and refers easily to the vital Jenkins and Chapman biographies. So, with little attempt at either literary weight or personal probe (Austen vies for the Most Unpsychoanalyzable Writer award), the illustrations had better be good. And they are. 137 of them - only three or four of elusive Jane herself - are imaginatively, astutely arranged, capturing the family, the friends, the architecture, the countryside, and the artifacts of the turn into the 19th century. A glorious, literate picture-book, then, but a wispier package than we've come to expect. (Kirkus Reviews)

A Man of His Word
I'm a balanced and insightful man with an insatiable curiosity for life. I'm always exploring, but never too caught up in details as I have an uncanny ability to step back and look at the big picture. I never settle for second best in anything, because I have a vision for how life should be and I aim to keep working toward it. I'm a very independent person, but at the same time I have a fun and easygoing style. My will is as strong as my enthusiasm, and I consider myself to be a student of life. When it comes to a partnership, I don't expect either of us to be perfect. We are unique people just as God planned and that is something to appreciate! I am very secure with myself and know how I want to live my life, and what I will and will not bring into it. I am a trustworthy and charming southern gentleman who will treat my woman right. I'm not afraid to work hard, nor am I a stranger to the joy found in life's simple pleasures. As independent as I am I will never bring drama or unreasonable expectations to the table. My match respects herself fully and keeps moving forward in life without letting insecurities drag her down. She is emotionally available and able to trust me implicitly, while also communicating on her end with everything upfront. I am a passionate person with many interests, and I'd like to meet a woman who feels strongly about the things she loves in life, and who is motivated to succeed at what she sets her mind to. On top of a radiant personality she is charming, sexy, and distinctively stylish both physically, and in how she tactfully approaches life's twists and turns. I'd rather you hurt my feelings than waste my time.(knowing in your heart, you're not interested)

Recently, AIL was asked by the Afghan Ministry of Women's Affairs to report on the impact AIL's programs have had. We were amazed by our findings. Since beginning in 1996 through May 2009, 220,970 Afghans have been educated in AIL schools, centers and post-secondary programs and overall 6,778,026 Afghan lives have been directly impacted by AIL programs.
Although most of the students in AIL centers and schools are women and girls, AIL is also educating boys who have not had an opportunity to go to school during the war years. During the first 6 months of 2009, your donations helped AIL educate 4,177 Afghan boys in Educational Learning Centers in Afghanistan and Pakistan.

At a New England boarding school, a sex scandal is about to break. Even more shocking than the sexual acts themselves is the fact that they were caught on videotape. A Pandora's box of revelations, the tape triggers a chorus of voices--those of the men, women, teenagers, and parents involved in the scandal--that details the ways in which lives can be derailed or destroyed in one foolish moment.
Writing with a pace and intensity surpassing even her own greatest work, Anita Shreve delivers in TESTIMONY a gripping emotional drama with the impact of a thriller. No one more compellingly explores the dark impulses that sway the lives of seeming innocents, the needs and fears that drive ordinary men and women into intolerable dilemmas, and the ways in which our best intentions can lead to our worst transgressions.
