Why is cocoa beach called cocoa beach?
Cocoa Beach was named after Cocoa, Florida. As for Cocoa, Florida...
The origin of the city's name is uncertain. In 1925, the Cocoa Tribune published several reader-supplied accounts of the town's naming. One reader credited Captain R.C. May with recommending the name at a town meeting in 1884. At Captain May's suggestion, the group finally chose the name "Cocoa" for the town's association with the cocoa tree. The name was forwarded to Washington, D.C., where it was approved. Another story suggests that an old woman was inspired by a box of baker's cocoa and her suggestion was adopted. Still another version suggests that along the bank of the Indian River lived an old woman who would supply hot cocoato sailors as they traveled along the river. As they passed, they would call out "cocoa, cocoa" until the woman supplied them with refreshment. Whatever its origin, by 1884 the name Cocoa had become permanently associated with what was then an infant settlement.

What is a tennis racquet made of?
Until the 1970's virtually all tennis racquets were made of wood with leather grips. Typically, the racquets were 27 inches in length, had a head size of about 65 square inches, and weighed about 13 ounces. Manufacturing innovations (new inventions) have radically changed the racquet in modern tennis, and some say, the character of the game. At first, companies introduced racquet frames made of new materials, such as steel and aluminum. Later, frames made of graphite and graphite blended with other material, such as Kevlar were produced. Other changes were in the dimensions of the head size. Light, oversize racquets weighing 10 or 11 ounces, with a typical head size of 110 square inches became very popular. These changes made the game much easier for lower level players, and helped the "tennis boom" from the late 1970's through the early 1980's. Many top players found the racquets improved their play as well. Since then, manufacturers have offered almost endless combinations of materials and designs in an attempt to further improve racquet performance. Some examples are: light racquets with heavy or "hammer" heads; "widebody" racquets with thicker or tapered heads and shafts; racquets with gigantic heads up to 145 square inches; exotic racquet head shapes, such as triangles, hexagons and fans; extra long racquets, ranging up to an amazing 32 inches in length; ultra light racquets weighing as little as 8 and 1/2 ounces, strung. New materials, such as boron and titanium have constantly been introduced and combined in different amounts with: aluminum, fiberglass and graphite. Few high level players have adopted the more extreme designs. However, the new racquet technology has been widely accepted in competitive and recreational tennis. It is no longer even possible to buy a "conventional" wooden frame racquets in sports stores. Most professional players play with graphite frames with a head size ranging between 85 and 110 square inches. Increasingly, pro players have experimented with or switched to racquets that are 28 inches in length. This is an inch more than the conventional 27 inch frames of a few years ago. A few players, mainly on women's tours, have also switched to mild "widebodies", racquets with thicker or tapered beams. For most of the history of tennis, there were almost no limitations placed on racquet dimensions by regulatory authorities. The only limits were that the surface of the racquet should be flat, and consist (made up) of a pattern of crossed strings of generally uniform density (thickness), free of "attached objects" other than those to limit vibration or reduce wear. Recently, the ever more extreme designs have lead the International Tennis Federation (ITF) to limit the frame dimensions. As of January 1997, the length of the frame was limited to 29 inches for professional play. This same rule will apply to all sanctioned play, amateur or professional, beginning January 1, 2000. In addition, the ITF has adopted limitations on racquet head size. The width of the frame cannot exceed 12 and 1/12 inches in width. The stringing surface cannot exceed 15 and 1/2 inches in length or 11 and 1/12 inches in overall width. While this eliminates the more outrageous extremes, it still allows for a 29 inch racquet with a head size of 135 square inches. This head size is more than twice that of the original wooden racquet.

How can beach erosion be stopped?
Coastal erosion can be minimised by adding 'groynes' that break up waves and stop them from reaching soft rock. Groynes can be made up of wooden slits in the sand that stop the waves slightly, or by rock walls either on the beach or out in the water. Massive wind breaks can also be constructed to stop the wind wearing the rock away.

Whatever happened to Jessica Smith from Laguna Beach?
The fictional Jessica Smith is a character in a story practically identical to "Carmen Winstead" -- a ghost appears to kill people who don't forward her story. It is entirely fictitious.
---
The story:
About 6 years ago in Indiana, Jessica Smith aka Carmen Winstead was pushed down a sewer opening by 5 girls in her school, trying to embarrass her in front of her school during a fire drill. When she didn't emerge, the police were called. They went down and brought up 17 year old Carmen Winstead's body: her neck broke hitting the ladder, then the concrete at the bottom. The girls told everyone she fell in accidentally. The authorities believed them.
When this story was posted online, 16 year old David Gregory read the post and didn't repost it. When he went to take a shower he heard laughter, started freaking out and ran to his computer to repost it. He said goodnight to his mom and went to sleep. Five hours later his mom woke up in the middle of the night because of a loud noise. David was gone, that morning a few hours later the police found him in the sewer, his neck broken and his face skin peeled off.
If you don't repost this saying: "She was pushed" or "They pushed her down a sewer" then Carmen will get you, either from a sewer, the toilet, or the shower. Or when you go to sleep, you'll wake up in the sewer, in the dark, then Carmen will come and kill you.

What Impact did Juno Beach have on the Canadian forces?
The canadians landed with over 14,000 soldiers and faught well. They went farther than all the other allies on D-day. Later they met up with the british. It increased Canadian morale. Canada remains peaceful today and keep their war stuff about how large and how well trained the armies are a secret I hop THIS answer answered your question better than the uncalled for and rude one before. No Canada did not think wars was easy.
AnswerAlmost two years before Normandy, Canada had attacked the French port city of Dieppe, and it was the first Canadian action of the war. It was also a miserable failure for the Allies, and a propaganda success for the Axis. Apparently many brave Canadian soldiers had been sacrificed for nothing, but the knowledge gained from it saved many lives on Juno Beach as well as on Gold and Sword. [Casualties were light on Utah because the US troops were accidentally landed in the wrong place, and casualties on Omaha were appalling.] Juno was the most important of the five beaches because its objective was the Caen Crossroads. I should think that after Juno the Canadians felt that the disaster at Dieppe had been compensated, and they could stand equally with the US and Great Britain.
