We are going to start things off by jumping feet first into the deep end of the Smart Filtering pool because I want to get a sense of how Smart Objects plus Smart Filters really facilitate the creative effects process. So I am going to take this image right here and by the way, it's called Young businessman.jpg. It's found inside the 05_smart_ filters folder and it comes to us from photographer Felix Mizioznikov of fotolia, about which you can learn more at fotolia.com/deke. I am going to apply the Color Halftone filter.
Not sure if you know about it, but you can render an image you're seeing gargantuan CMYK Halftone Dots, so that it looks like something out of the Sunday comics or perhaps a Roy Lichtenstein piece. And then though thanks to the fact that you applied it as a Smart Filter, you can turn around and customize the effect to your heart's content and that's what we will see here. So not a practical technique. Just a play technique. I am wanting to achieve a very specific effect though. I am wanting to get a highly graphical effect out of this image, the kind of thing I might use in an advertisement, for example.
All right, so step number one is to convert this image to a Smart Object as usual. Now, a couple different ways to work. We've seen how you can convert an image to Smart Object by going up the Layers palette flyout menu and choosing Convert to Smart Object. You can press Ctrl+Comma or Command+ Comma if you have loaded my dekeKeys. I will go ahead and escape out of there. You can also go up to the Filter menu and you can choose Convert for Smart Filters. Now all that does is it turns the image into a Smart Object but see, Adobe figured that not everybody would know, quite reasonably so I think, that in order to apply an editable Smart Filter, you first need to create a Smart Object which is the way it works.
So they went ahead and put this command here, so you would know if you want a Smart Filter, you got to choose this command to make a Smart Object. And in fact, when you choose the command, you get this alert message that says To enable re-editable-- what's wrong with just plain old editable-- Smart Filters, the selected layer will be converted to a Smart Object. And you go, hey okay, and you can if you want to say Don't show again on this one. I am just going to say OK and I will go ahead and rename this layer photograph, because it is my original photograph. All right, having done that, I am going to go up to the Filter menu, I'm going to choose Pixelate and all the Pixelate filters will go ahead and render the image out using various chunky affects.
You either can produce a circular pattern using Color Halftone. Pointillize also ends up delivering dots. Mosaic will give you big squares as if you've rendered the image at a lower resolution. Crystallize will give you sort of a stained glass look. Some of the others I really don't necessarily recommend. Facet sort of thickens the edges. Fragment makes it look jiggly. A couple of the worst filters in Photoshop frankly. Anyway I am going to go with this guy right there, Color Halftone. Just pretty darn exciting. And in by default, what you are going to see here, no preview.
This is one of those filters that doesn't give you a preview and by the way, most of the filters either give you no preview or bad previews. So that's just something you should realize when you're going into the Filter menu. There are some really great filters-- by the way, if you've seen my Photoshop CS3 Sharpening Images series, then you know the filters I really recommend. They are the edge detection filters, your Smart Sharpen, your High Pass, your Gaussian Blur, your Reduce Noise, that kind of thing. The others are effect filters and most of the effect filters are very difficult to predict and the only way to really come to terms with them is to spend some time with them.
If they're not working for you, there's a very good chance it's their fault because a lot of them aren't all that great. But anyway, here we are in Color Halftone. It's a super filter for what it does. By default, it's set to a Max. Radius of 8 pixels, meaning that you're going to have the circles that can grow to a maximum radius of 8 pixels. That's the diameter of 16 pixels, bear in mind. So higher values will give you bigger dots and the reason it says Max. Radius is because lighter areas are going to have small circles and darker areas are going to have big circles, just like halftone dots in commercial printing.
And so, for effect purposes, you want to go pretty big with this value typically. I don't worry about Channel 1, Channel 2, Channel 3, Channel 4. These are the CMYK channels incidentally. They are not real channels. They are channel in quote fingers, because we are still working inside of an RGB image here. But what they are is the screen angles and that's typically something you just want to leave to Photoshop because these screen angles are known to work well. They are actual professional standards, believe it or not. But if you want to achieve different effects, you can try different stuff. Just be prepared for the fact that you don't have a preview and you are going to have to probably modify your settings if you go playing with these guys, even if you just play with this.
In fact, let's go ahead and set this to 8, which is the default value, and I'll click OK and we'll apply the Color Halftone effect and I'll look at and I will think, hmmm, those dots aren't big enough. Well, the great thing about working with Smart Filters is it sort of takes care of that problem to a small extent where you can't preview the effect because the great thing here is you haven't really applied anything. It's a non-destructive application of filter because we have an underlying Smart Object here. So the original pixels are protected.
So all I have to do to change my mind, if I decide those dots are too tiny, all I have to do is double click on Color Halftone and then drag this out of the way so at least I can have a sense of what's going on there and then I could increase this value to 16 pixels. Let's try that again. It gets reapplied. Aha! That's looking better to me because I want this big, huge graphical effect. If that's still not what you want, you can double-click on the filter again. Try some new settings like let's try 20, what the heck. Click OK and see the size of the dots now and play around as much as you want.
Anyway, I am going to go back, set this to 16 and click OK, and I am done. Now I'm going to say one more thing here. I am not a big fan of having a filter mask by default because it takes up room inside of my Layers palette. It's not a problem to leave it there if you're happy seeing it, that's fine, but it's typically big and it's as big as the image thumbnail. It just consumes too much room. So, if you don't want it there, you just right-click on the filter mask and choose Delete Filter Mask. You can also go ahead and grab that filter mask, drag it and drop it on to the Trashcan icon if you want to but it's just so much easier to right-click and choose Delete Filter Mask, and there it goes.
If you ever decide you want a filter mask again later, which many times you will, then you right-click, not on the filter name but on Smart Filters above it there, right-click and then choose Add Filter Mask and your filter mask comes back. All right, anyway, we have applied a Smart Filter. We have edited the Smart Filter. But there are still things I want to do this filter effect. I am not happy with it yet and so we will experiment with the blend mode settings in the very next exercise.

The team at Golf 'n Girls have scoured the LPGA and LET for the hottest women golfers in the game. After much debate and lots of ogling we have settled on a definitive list. Take a seat and enjoy our Top 15 hot women golfers!
Golf often gets a bad rep for not having loads of beautiful women golfers. This belief couldn't be more unfounded – the LPGA and LET tours are awash with gorgeous women golfers.

TWELVE DRUG CASES that involved disgraced ex-Philly cop Jeffrey Walker were dismissed yesterday by the District Attorney's Office.
The move came just a month after Common Pleas Judge Sheila Woods-Skipper overturned 53 drug-related convictions that dated back to 2002 because of Walker's involvement with the cases.
Walker, 44, was caught allegedly stealing $15,000 from a drug dealer's rowhouse in Kingsessing in May as part of an FBI sting.

The Impending Move In Apple... 27 commentsJul 26, 2013 9:29 AM | about stocks: AAPL
Just about a year ago, Apple was the stock market's darling, making a high of $700+...it could do no wrong...
And then suddenly the bottom fell out and the company was written off as a relic of late Steve Jobs' days at its helm...From gloat to ignominy and hopefully gloat again as relief is finally in sight for Apple's long suffering shareholders who have watched in disbelief as their stock has nose dived to hit a low of $385...
Earlier this week, Apple announced earnings and the most important metric, unit sales of its flagship iPhones, were a lot higher than most analysts' forecasts...The stock gapped up and is currently trading around $440.
Looking at Apple's weekly candlestick chart, it is pretty clear that the stock has made higher lows and is getting ready to attack its first target...its 50 day simple moving average line which currently sits at $503.17...
And its PnF chart is even more interesting...
When AAPL gapped up and printed $444, it broke through its bearish resistance line sitting at $440....Readers of my blog recognize the importance of this break, having identified, and handsomely profited, from a similar pattern formation in SunPower's PnF chart not too long ago...
I believe that this break of the bearish resistance line is very significant...
Additionally, and I believe, equally as important, in the overall stock market, the S&P 500 and the Dow are making new highs...and it is only the NASDAQ that is playing the role of the party spoiler...Heck, even the Russell 2000 Index is making new, all time highs...
In my humble opinion, this is about to change...Within the next 6-9 months, the Nasdaq Index will make a new all time high...which btw, is 5000+ points...Currently the NASDAQ sits around 3600 and needs to make a 1400+ point move to get there...
And there is more connecting of the dots...
Apple is the largest component of the NASDAQ...in order for the NASDAQ to reach its all time high, it needs Apple...No way in hog heaven can it get to the Promised Land without Apple...
My humble prediction is that Apple has made its lows and has just started the inevitable march...upward...in pursuit of its recent $700+ peak...in other words, a $260+ move in Apple's stock price could be in the offing and it may happen sooner than many believe...after all, only with Apple's help can NASDAQ achieve Nirvana...and achieve it will...you can count on it...
This impending move in Apple should be explosive, and the ride, pure doozy...I am counting on it!
P.S. I am aware that I have neglected answering a few questions posed by this blog's readers and I want to assure you all that I have every intention of responding and will do so very shortly...This post, I felt, was very important for me to get it out there for you all... :-)
DISCLAIMER: All postings made here are strictly for my personal record keeping and in no way, shape or form, am I even remotely suggesting others to follow my Buy and Sell moves. Trading options is definitely not for the faint of heart as one's portfolio can move up, or down, anywhere between 10%-30% during a single trading day. Feel free to follow my progress here, but PLEASE do not follow my moves. However, if, in spite of all my exhortations, should you decide to do so, be advised that you, and ONLY YOU will be responsible for any losses that you may suffer...In other words, the onus is strictly on you. On the other hand, if the move(s) result in a profit for you, I am open to discussing a split. ;-)

Hello KP,
Thanks for the post. I agree with you. However, what time frame are you looking at to achieve this target of $500? The relative strength is low at present & the stock isn't outperforming the market. If your analysis is correct then I think the new product announcement (expected sometime in Sept) should boost the stock way beyond $500+. I'm trying to first time play with options instead of buying a share. All my cash is in SUNE & SPWR. At $440 level instead of buying 5-10 shares (that is what I can afford right now) of AAPL, I want to try my first options trade. Hence would like to know which strike price option to buy. I think $500 strike price with Jan/Apr 2014 call option is safe instead of $550/$600 strike price for first timer like me? Any suggestions?
As I mentioned in my post, I expect NASDAQ to print a new all time high within the next 6-9 months, and possibly even sooner...My suggestion would be to buy just slightly outside the money options, say $450=$460 and next January or even April time frame should be quite profitable...good luck on your first option trade...kp
Hi KP, wondering if your near term projections for SPWR to hit $33 have changed (maybe take longer?) since Q3 revenue guidance is weaker than expected? EPS were outstanding and good for fy13.... Was hoping for a nice pop and then to move some $ into Apple, so far afterhours it's down though. Any insight? Thank you
Hi Spak007, The earnings were terrific and the pullback in the after hours was unwarranted and on pretty light, less than 300,000 shares, volume...My target is still $33 dollars...I don't recall saying that SPWR will hit $33 the week they announce earnings...If there is one thing, make that 2 things, I NEVER do is a) Trade short term options, and b) Buy way out of the money CALLS / PUTS...Hopefully no one who follows my blog tried to do that...I still expect SPWR to hit my $33 target within the next 30 - 45 days...and possibly sooner...the reaction that you see in after market trading is just noise and I don't pay attention to it...Tomorrow, it is quite likely that the stock may have a knee jerk reaction and pull back a buck, or even two...however, the trend is definitely up and I expect the stock to hit my target sooner rather than later...kp
Thanks, appreciate your comments as well! I figured with the numbers they posted, it was very positive.....just wanted to get confirmation from the meister! I have plenty of time on my SPWR options, I was just pleased to see your post about Apple...as I have always thought it was a matter of time before it came roaring back....and am hoping SPWR will get there so I can take a bigger bite out of the Apple!
Wanted to run this by the Options Guru. Correct me if I'm wrong kp, but this Aapl thing has in its PnF chart, some extremely encouraging figures for the bulls and this Friday in its premarket of $20 bump up, I'd observed the following:
$460=3 double tops
$464=4 double tops
$468=5 double tops???
Other questions I have is what is your perspective of a high pole / low pole warnings on a PnF? Do you view these as good spots for profit taking or wait on a 3 box reversal to buy even more, if a good stock like a tsla prints 20 X's straight?
i2w, You are indeed getting good at PnF...
As you know, my prediction is for the NASDAQ to make a new all time high in the next 6-9 months...It cannot do that without the support of the S&P 500...The double top break on the SPY's PnF chart confirms the fact that the bull trend is alive and kicking and my prediction for the NASDAQ is still on course...LOL! kp
Good read...
What happens on Sept 10th after Apple's announcement? If the street doesn't like same size iphone 5 & there is no new category such as iwatch or itv or no larger screen iphone news then the stock might go down. However, till then I agree with speculation it might cross $500. How do we plan for this scenario?
Vow kp,
Good guestions...When the RSI is in nose bleed territory, as it is now, the chances of the stock taking a breather is high...The next PnF resistance is only $3 away...So I think it will fill that box with an X and may even shoot up $3-$4, but should not be able to break that Double Top without first coming down, hopefully for another 3-Box reversal...That should also help bring down the RSI to somewhat acceptable level(s)...

With their 22nd season ready to get under way, the Crabpot Players Theatre Company has opened up registration for a variety of classes for all ages.
An Intro to Acting class will be held for ages 15 and up and will be taught by Daniel Prentice.
The class is perfect for anyone with little to no stage experience or a novice actor looking to brush up on their skills. Basic concepts such as blocking, vocal projection and stage movement will be discussed. Participants will construct pantomimes, short scenes and monologues to perform in front of the class.
Musical theater director Jennifer Proveaux is leading two sessions of a Music Performance class for those aged eight and up. This class will help musical theater students hone their musical performance abilities. Students will learn how to break down and analyze a song, interpret the surrounding musical influences on the text and will learn the differences in vocal requirements on the continuum of vocal performance styles.
Private voice lessons and vocal and dramatic coaching are also available, taught by Proveaux. Voice lessons, for students seven and older, will concentrate on whichever genre of music the student wishes to pursue. Focus will be concentrated on vocal technique, vocal health and care, performance, song analysis, repertoire selection and work towards self-sustaining performance ability.
Vocal and dramatic coaching is for anyone 13 and up with an upcoming audition or just looking to improve their performance ability in singing, musical theater or acting.
Classes will begin in September and run through the fall to December.
For more information and to register, visit the Crabpot Players website at www.crabpotplayers.com or give them a call at 888-303-0763. The theater is located at 1137 Johnnie Dodds Blvd. off Highway 17 in Mount Pleasant.

Latino Community Center cuts finances
The Latino Community Center has suffered severe financial problems and says it's making major but unspecified cuts to try to correct the situation.
The agency, which has won national recognition for its youth and violence-prevention programs, parted ways with its executive director, Ramon Candelaria, this month. But Pat McQuillan, a spokesman for the center's board of directors, said the agency's financial picture and Candelaria's departure weren't related. He called the timing coincidental.
Another veteran employee of the center also has left. Gary Graika, director and founder of the violence-free zone program at the center, said he was terminated this month. Graika is known for his years of working with gangs and gang prevention. He made $62,000 a year; Candelaria made $72,000.
According to the center's 2006 financial audit that was just submitted to the City of Milwaukee this month, the agency had assets of $81,179 and liabilities of $404,344. City Comptroller W. Martin Morics had been asking for the audit and a corrective action plan for months.
In a June 2 letter to the center, Morics said the city was going to withhold payments of block grant funds to the agency if the audit wasn't submitted within 10 days. The audit was received at the deadline.
Along with the audit, there was a letter from the agency's chief financial officer, Brandi A. Ellis, outlining steps the center plans to take to correct its financial problems. She said the new position of chief financial officer has been created to oversee accounting and finances, and that the board's finance committee is meeting weekly to discuss the situation.
"Major cuts are taking place in areas of the center to make sure LCC will be at an optimum level with staffing and programs,�? she said. She did not say what is being cut and did not return calls asking for details.
Nearly $2 million budget
The center is to get $70,000 in block grant funds from the city this year. It has an estimated budget of nearly $2 million.
The city's block grant director, Steven Mahan, said the center was meeting its program goals and activities. He called Candelaria "the workhorse�? of the organization. "I don't know of any director who put in the work he did.�?
Candelaria became director of the center in 2002 when it was on the verge of collapse. Candelaria said his resignation was by mutual agreement. The fund-raising pressures created a constant challenge, he said.
McQuillan said the agency finds itself in its current financial state because of a combination of factors, including the timing of grants, the growth of the center and the difficult fund-raising environment.
"The organization has also experienced such significant growth in the last couple of years, and programs have increased,�? he said. "It's been exceptionally successful, and we have been doing a great job with all our programs.�?
He noted that the center's violence-prevention program is now in three high schools and has become a nationally recognized model.
McQuillan, who joined the board last year, said he and others on the board are committed to the center and its future. "It's a great place that makes a huge difference to in the lives of kids. . . . We continue to push forward.�?

Cooperative Spectrum Sensing Using Q-Learning With Experimental Validation
Spectrum sensing detects the availability of the radio frequency spectrum and it is essential to cognitive radio. Cooperative spectrum sensing conducted among multiple secondary users has the potentials for solving the hidden terminal problem and achieving a better performance. In this paper, an approach for cooperative spectrum sensing based on Q-learning is proposed. Real-world Wi-Fi signals measured from four different locations are employed to evaluate the performance of the proposed approach. Experimental result shows the performance of the proposed approach is better than that of the popular M-out-of-N rule.

Coming up with a title for your business can be the hardest part of the creative process. Though this may seem like a small piece of your marketing puzzle, your title can be a big deciding factor in the success of your business.
While you may have spent hours agonizing over the perfect title to represent your brand, creating a Meta Title for search engine purposes is a whole other ballgame. When it comes to your SEO ranking, your title can truly make or break whether or not your business will be found online.
Read on for our top tips on how to write a title that will get your business the attention it deserves on Google's search engine.
What is a Meta Title?
Meta Titles and Meta Descriptions are hidden text elements on your page that are used to describe your site on search engines but may not necessarily appear on your web page at all. These elements are meant to give a small taste of what your site is about for people who have come across your page by way of a search engines.
More often than not, people who have found you on search engines like Google will not be familiar with your company, which means that your meta title will need to provide more detail about your product or service than your business title and slogan on your home page alone.
Writing a Meta Title
The Classic structure for a meta title for local businesses is as follows:
Keywords | Business name | Location*
*businesses that are not bound by location can omit this.
Pro Tips:
- Google only gives you a limited amount of space to display your title. Keep your title short, quick and eye catching. While title limits on Wix sites are 70 characters, we recommend that you keep your meta title between 50 – 55 characters, including spaces.
- Keep in mind that your title will not look identical on every search result. When words in your meta title match up with what someone is looking for in their search query, Google will bold the matching words in your title. This will affect the sizing of your title within the search engine, so it's best to keep things short.
- Consider using vertical bars to separate the different aspects on your site to make your title easy to read on crowded search engines.
- In addition to search engine results, you meta title will also appear on browser tabs and social media posts, so keep clarity and eye appealing qualities in mind when writing it.
- Do you run a local business? Consider adding a your location in your title – users don't want to fall in love with a business only to find out it's located a million miles away.
Write the Title Your Users are Looking For
As we mentioned above, the results of your user's search query has a direct impact on how your title will appear within Google.
When words within a user's search query matches up with your meta title, Google will not only place your website higher on the search results, but they'll bold the matching words and phrases in your title. In order to benefit from matching title results, you'll need to make an effort to write your title based on what your potential clients will likely be searching for.
One of the best ways to find out the insider details of your user's search strategy is to look into Google Adword Keyword Planner. With the Keyword Planner, you can fine tune your title to match exactly what your users are looking for.
For example:
Let's say you run a pizza parlor in Austin, Texas – we'll call it 'Sam's Pizza'.
With Google's Keyword Planner, you can pinpoint exactly what hungry pizza eaters in Austin search for, and then incorporate that in your meta title.
In one quick search, you'll notice that your key audience cares most about things like: delivery and local business, so your meta title may look something like this:
Pizza Delivery | Sam's Pizza | Austin, Texas
Give it a try for yourself!
- Open a Free Google Adwords account.
- Go to the Keyword Planner
- Search for new keyword and keyword ideas
- Local business benefit most from selecting key target locations.
- Do your business operate worldwide? Location targeting may not be for you, but you'll likely benefit from targeting certain langauges.
- Once you've selected your targets, click "Get ideas"
Click on the Keyword ideas tab in the search results and get an idea of what your market is most interested in!

If you haven't done so, please visit today's reelection thread at
Unless he sues!
Same here. He is definitely one of those candidates who has this initial appeal..but the closer you look, the less likable he is.
I really don't think the Dems have a candidate who comes close to George Bush. They all look like losers to me.
Unless something goes drastically wrong for GW..like maybe the economy tanks...I believe he will win a second term.
These same Democrats who are attacking Bush never disputed the intelligence reports on WMDs before..and in fact most of them encouraged Clinton to take action against Saddam for his WMDs.
They never disputed the UN Security Council which claimed there were tons of bio and chemical weapons unaccounted for..they all voted to give Bush the authority to disarm Saddam.
They even warned of the dire consequences of Saddam using his WMDs against us.
Now they are pretending they never existed and Bush lied. These people are such transparent hypocrites..they only make themselves look bad.
Unfortunately Europe is so full of liberal flakes who are totally out of touch with reality...if we don't find the WMDs..it could hurt Blair politically.
Before that interview, I was worried about another Southern Schlickmeister. Now, however, I hope he ends up being the nominee (not gonna happen). I would just love to see him fall apart under pressure during presidential debates.
I was suprised that a trial lawyer could look that inept. I guess he is not used to being on the receiving end of hard questions
At this rate, Bush will win with 60%!
I don't know which is worse, Biden's hair implants or his plagiarism.
John Edwards, Twangy Shyster
I mean whatwith the NYSlimes having been recently (albeit temporarily) detoothed spinning this bulging blackeye into a four leaf clover will be all the more difficult, huh Mom? {g}
Well, that's just the way the cake breaks.
Can't win 'em all.
That's the way of it; sometimes.
Better Liberal-Socialist luck, tomorrow.
(hehehe :o) )
Yes, they are. The only states that are not winner-take-all in the Electoral College are Maine and Nebraska.
However, I imagine you were really asking whether they are winner-take-all for choosing delegates to the Democratic convention. I'm afraid I don't know the answer to that one.

No Rx Pyruvitol
By Steve Silva, no rx pyruvitol Boston.com Staff
FOXBOROUGH – It was a big night for Brandon Lloyd, no rx pyruvitol who had his first two touchdown game as a Patriot.
One touchdown was a perfectly executed pass play that looked like a run at the start. No rx pyruvitol The other was a pass-play-turned-fumble where Lloyd happened to be in the right place at the right time.
For his first touchdown, no rx pyruvitol Tom Brady found Lloyd wide open in the middle of the field after the Patriots QB faked a handoff and Lloyd blew past the confused Texans defense that bit on the run. No rx pyruvitol Lloyd breezed into the end zone and the Patriots went up 14-0 in in the first quarter of what would be an eventual 42-14 demolition of Houston.
"That was definitely a scheme play, no rx pyruvitol" Lloyd said. No rx pyruvitol "We worked hard on that all week, no rx pyruvitol and when the opportunity presented itself, no rx pyruvitol Coach [Josh] McDaniels called it at the right time and we were able to take advantage of it."
Lloyd's second touchdown came on a fumble recovery in the end zone, no rx pyruvitol after Danny Woodhead lost the ball after catching a screen pass early in the fourth quarter. No rx pyruvitol Texans defensive lineman J.J. No rx pyruvitol Watt punched the ball out of Woodhead's arms and it bounced 13 yards into the end zone, no rx pyruvitol where Lloyd grabbed it like he was pulling in a Brady pass.
"Just a screen pass, no rx pyruvitol we do our best to block downfield, no rx pyruvitol and unfortunately the ball popped out, no rx pyruvitol" Lloyd said. No rx pyruvitol "But we were there to make the play."
Lloyd played the role of the humble team player after the game.
"Obviously the Texans are a really good football team, no rx pyruvitol" he said. No rx pyruvitol "We did a pretty good job of executing in the first half, no rx pyruvitol for the most part, no rx pyruvitol but we still have things that we need to improve on. No rx pyruvitol I think we had a great week of practice and we did things that were necessary to come out and execute well. No rx pyruvitol It was a team effort."
Lloyd caught seven passes for 89 yards, no rx pyruvitol his second-highest total of the season.

Ohio contractor to begin Shades Beach construction
An Ohio company will rebuild the breakwater at Shades Beach in Harborcreek Township this summer.
Huffman Equipment Rental, of Eastlake, Ohio, was awarded the construction contract on May 21. The company also will replace floating docks at the beach.
Huffman's bid of $497,900 was the lowest responsible bid received for the work, Harborcreek Township Supervisor Tim May said. May is the township's superintendent of parks.
"We're very pleased with it," he said.
There were four other bids, including one as high as $900,000, May said.
Work on the harbor is expected to begin in June and should be completed by the end of August.
Disruptions to the boating season should be minimal, May said this spring. The harbor and boat ramps may be closed occasionally during construction but will be open through most of the season, he said.
The problem with the breakwater is that it is being eroded by waves, wind and ice. Some of the rocks used to build it are too small to withstand the elements and will be removed and replaced with sturdier materials, May said.
The breakwater and docks were part of a $2.6 million project to create a safe harbor for small boats in 2007. But the offshore improvements were improperly designed and were "falling apart" two years later, township supervisors claimed in a 2009 lawsuit filed against the engineering firms that designed them.
The case was settled out of court in 2012 when Urban Engineers, of Erie, and Wisconsin-based W.F. Baird & Associates agreed to pay a combined $900,000 in damages.
That money will pay for this summer's dock and breakwater improvements, and to dredge the harbor, May said.

I guess young Americans are much smarter than I give them credit for, even in Boston.
Holy Sh*t, he's really in trouble now.
RE: Holy Sh*t, he's really in trouble now.
He's already gone to be with the Vestal Virgins.
He doesn't understand people not being liars all the time
More likely, Helen Thomas lookalikes!
no body likes me, everybody hates me
I think I'll kill people......
The local news now is excusing their actions because they came from such a violent community in Russia, that's how they learned to deal with trouble.
Hell, I'm American and I don't have any friends either, but I'm not blowing up women and children because of it.
Right back at ya', dead Chechnyan Muslim terrorist. Don't understand you, have no dead Chechnyan Muslim friends.
Sounds like a typical Morrissey song.
They'll take away his guns...
I don;t think that's excusing their actions, I think that's a pretty strong case for stopping immigration of these sick bastards.
"calling for Chechen independence"
These people should stay there and fight for independence.
What his 'profession' is, where he worked, where his income/money from,
If he and his brother turned out to be sucking on gubmint teats, I (and millions of Americans) would be furious.
In a rational world, yes, but we are talking about reporters.
Hm. Worth looking into. I'll have to do some research.
he probably could not understand Americans because up in MA they were even too far left for him, tell the truth I don;t understand many of them up there, hell even looking at the TV I see freaks in the background, men looking girlie, women with short hair and looking boyish.
Men marrying men, women marrying women, men inmates getting a sex change, freak homo parades, the left wing tolerance and diversity crap.
Yep I seem to be the same as him if he refers to the Americans as just those up in MA
you ever been there?
MA , Cambridge, Waltham, Watertown, Weston, Newton Boston etc are full of left wing nuts.
I guarantee that people gave these two sympathy because where they were from and kept harping on about how America is to blame and poor muslims are nice and being picked on.
The media are a joke, they keep mentioning how could they do this, they came fro the American dream, did they come here as sleepers at a young age.
The left media still does not get it , even after all this.
It so happens in a place which is ultra radical left wing which shouts tolerance and diversity
Do student visa regulations permit someone to take time off from school to pursue activities unrelated to academics?
bozo will be ordering to kill him so he does not have to deal with the courts, what courts, what charges, Gitmo.
Remember dead people do not talk and then bozo next week can get back to anti gun and pro illegal immigration
Here's a helpful hint for any other Tamerlans out there: instead of reading books like, "How To Make A Bomb", how about reading "How To Win Friends And Influence People".
RE: how about reading "How To Win Friends And Influence People".
Interestingly, that was on his purchase list too according to his Amazon page (released by the company).
I am hoping that maybe this will lead at least some GOP senators to rethink about pushing this devastating immigration bill. We all should keep after them. We already have laws but need to have them enforced.
Shoulda been higher up on his list. Let this be a lesson to any other Talismans out there.
I was being sarcastic to a point. I just want them and all foreigners out. Go home.
RE: I was being sarcastic to a point. I just want them and all foreigners out. Go home.
They've been in America for over a decade.
At least one of the brothers went to Cambridge Rindge and Latin School ... where Oscar winners, Matt Damon and Ben Affleck went to school, according to reports.
The question now ... are these brothers — who have presumably been Americanized and living in the U.S. for years — considered domestic or foreign terrorists.
If you are not a citizen then you are a foreigner. It is time to remove the gray area.
Sir, you have JUST accurately described both Boston and MA to a tee!(a)
RE: If you are not a citizen then you are a foreigner
Still waiting to find out if either one of them applied for US citizenship.
Any immigrant can apply for citizenship after 5 years of residency in this country.
"..I dont have a single American friend, I dont understand them.."
Boston is the capital city of the diversity movement and a poster child of the radical liberal left - and a muslim terrorist couldn't understand them??
I don't think he needed a student visa. They've been here several years since they came with their parents. - about ten years ago. The youngest would have been 9 or 10 years old.
The youngest brother seems to have assimilated quite well into American life and was well liked in school. His coach spoke very highly of him and is in shock that this happened. I'm betting that the older brother radicalized him - through Islam, of course. :(
IMO applying doesn't count. Being engaged doesn't make you married.
er there is no question except put out by the left wing media I can't believe the media is asking this but then again they are trying to change the facts and say it's domestic.
They were foreign and terrorists, that;s a fact pure and simple
They haven't been here for years. The brother on the run has only been here since late 2011; the deceased brother's length of residence stateside I do not know.
Have you ever been there?
The young men who are mostly students look very girlie and the women for some reason have to have short hair and look boyish.
Even on TV I can see the background and people walking about and there are so many looking freaks there.
Even in neighboring NH the people don't want Ma folk and then up in ME they've had it with MA people too.
RE: IMO applying doesnt count. Being engaged doesnt make you married.
Let's put it another way.... Most applications for citienships get APPROVED after you pass the residency requirements.
We don't know if they did apply. But let's assume that they did apply ( and they can by law because they've lived here for over 10 years ) and the application is approved, and they were sworn in as citizens like millions of others.
That makes them Americans.
Please provide a reference for that information concerning length of residence.
"Holy Sh*t, he's really in trouble now."
Not really. Seems to me NOW is OK with Muslim domestic violence. It's a cultural thing, you know?
We agree to disagree. There are some I will never accept as my fellow countrymen. They do not assimilate they are not American.
RE: Even in neighboring NH the people dont want Ma folk and then up in ME theyve had it with MA people too.
Too bad, NH has already been overrun by MA folks attracted to their ZERO state taxes.
How do I know that?
NH ( the live free or die state ), voted for OBAMA ( yep. he of Obamacare fame ) TWICE — in 2008 and 2012.
Live free or Die — They chose the latter.
RE: We agree to disagree. There are some I will never accept as my fellow countrymen. They do not assimilate they are not American.
I don't necessarily disagree with you.
Being born an American does not guarantee that you will grow up to love this country. See The American Taliban — John Walker Lindh for instance.
Conversely, being born overseas does not necessarily make you a terrorist and an American hater.
I know of MANY overseas born immigrants who love this country ( and will fight for her ). I also know of many native born Americans who hate this country and who will betray her.
We ought to take things on a case by case basis.
I agree with case by case but I am leaning toward an exception for Muslims. Allow none. I try to be impartial toward the "moderate" ones but there silence and refusal to turn in their fellow satan worshipers has dulled my sympathies.
I take it since he doesn't understand Americans he doesn't want to be friends with us rather than Americans don't want to be friends with him.
