9        Tablespoons of sea salt.
Cut one quarter of an inch off both ends of pickling cucumbers. Stuff the cucumbers into a glass gallon jar with garlic, dill (with seeds), and fresh horseradish leaves. If you have hard time finding horseradish leaves, you may use grape, currant or cherry leaves instead.
Mix the water and salt in a blender.
Pour the salt-water into the gallon jar so that the pickles are covered. If needed, add plain water to completely submerge the pickles. Let this jar sit on the counter covered with a cloth for two days. On the third day the pickles will be pickled enough to eat. If you will decide after four or five days that you want them to stop pickling, drain the water, cover the jar with lid and place them in the refrigerator.
Warning: This dish contains large amount of salt, please eat sparingly!
Several months ago we introduced you to Tonya�s first book, Your Right to Be Beautiful, where author shared the natural way she helped herself become noticeably more attractive. Many people bought this book and loved it.
In her new book, Beautiful on Raw, Tonya responds to the two questions most often raised by her enthusiastic readers: �Can you tell us about other women who achieved the same remarkable results? and "Where can we find recipes to help us make this transition?"
In Beautiful On Raw, you will read about the experiences of Tonya and 10 other women, ages 35 to 65. The stories of their astonishing results with the raw food will inspire you, and help you see that you can do it too!
Victoria: Ever since I can remember myself, I always loved to eat. I had a good appetite and mealtimes were always pleasant for me. Both my parents and my nanny cheerfully complemented me if I finished everything on my plate, so I decided that eating was a great merit and this was my first dietary lesson: the more one eats, the better.
When I was about five years old and my parents took me to a day care, I remember how shocked I was to meet some children that didn�t like to eat, who were sitting and sobbing for a long time at the table, refusing to finish their plates. As a punishment, teachers didn�t let those children play and insisted that they stayed at the table until their plates were empty. I felt so much sympathy for my friend Nina who couldn�t finish her plate of porridge that I often I would trade her full plate with my empty one when the teachers were not watching. I gladly ate her porridge as well as my own.
One day, when I missed the ball in a game and had to step out, I made a curious observation: the children who didn�t like to eat had a light body constitution, and the ones who ate well, were a lot heavier. I realized that there was a conflict between the events in reality and the preachings of my parents and teachers. As I watched the children on the playground I saw that it was noticeably more challenging for the heavier children to run around than it was for the ones who were lighter. At the time, grown-ups represented an impeccable authority to me, so I decided they could not be mistaken and continued to eat as they instructed me to. Adults told me that if I wanted to grow, I had to eat �well� and I didn�t question them in this matter.
As a result of the dietary habits I acquired as a child, I went through a lot of pain and despair in my life. It took me almost 50 years to discover a healthy way of eating. Even though I now feel vibrantly healthy, I still realize that too much of my life force has been wasted on fighting un-necessary illnesses caused by wrong eating habits set up in my childhood. I often wonder how I would look and feel if I had led the lifestyle I lead today from the beginning of my childhood.
Valya: I realize how fortunate I have been to be introduced to a healthy lifestyle at an early age. I often wonder where I would be today if I hadn�t changed my way of living.  I was born with asthma. Almost every other night I was unable to sleep due to an inability to breathe. I was told that I would have asthma for the rest of my life and I watched with dread as it continued to steadily worsen every year. Besides my complicated breathing condition, all of my early days I constantly suffered with multiple allergies, colds and earaches.
When I was eight, my family and I began eating 100% raw food. Since the day I changed my diet, I have never experienced another asthmatic attack again. I am so happy to no longer be hindered by my former illnesses. Every day I enjoy brilliant health! I�m deeply grateful to my parents for helping me change my eating habits and encouraging me to understand the value of being healthy. Great health is truly the greatest gift a parent can give to a child.
Victoria: I remember how I cried all through the night in my kitchen when the doctor pronounced that my son had juvenile diabetes. I cried loudly and hopelessly, not willing to accept my son�s sad destiny to live with this sickness. My grandmother had had this same illness and she passed away unexpectedly from an overdose of insulin. It seemed like a miracle had blessed my family when my husband and I found a lifestyle that helped our son reverse his symptoms. Now that he is a healthy and quite happy 20 years old, it is now safe for me to share one other side of our family�s life that we have never spoken about before. At certain times on our journey, neighbors, co-workers, other children�s parents and some friends, have frowned upon us for our radical change of lifestyle. Both Igor and I spent countless sleepless nights in doubts, carefully rethinking whether we were doing the right thing feeding our children this �cookless� diet. There were so many things that we didn�t know at that time and there was nobody in all the world to ask for advice. Often we had to learn by trial and error. We were continuing mainly because we had great results. Three months after becoming all raw, my family ran a 10K race Bolder Boulder, that was an unbelievable achievement for every one of us and served as a confirmation that we were on the right track. Today I appreciate that, in spite of all resistance towards our lifestyle, my family has continued staying on a raw food diet. Together with Valya we are working on a new book called �Inspiring Children to Eat Healthy� where we are sharing many tips that my family has collected over time. We believe that all people should have the opportunity to heal themselves and live free of disease.
Valya: There have been several occasions when our neighbors have called social services on my parents, claiming that they were not feeding or clothing my brother and me. On one such occasion, my brother and I were home alone when a stern looking lady with a clipboard stopped by our house. When she knocked, we answered the door together. She introduced herself and asked us how old we were. We told her that Sergei was eleven, and I was ten. She could tell for herself that we were well clothed and were definitely not starving to death. �What did you have for lunch dear?� she asked my brother. Sergei sensed that this was an odd question for such a lady to ask, because she did not seem like the type to be at all interested in health food. So instead of explaining that we had been eating only fresh, organic live foods for two years and that each of us had gotten rid of our awful illnesses and that we were working on perfecting a raw lasagna recipe, he decided to tell her this: �We just came back from McDonalds where we each had a Big Mack with Fries.�  This answer seemed to satisfy the lady, because she said, �Oh, okay then honey. You two have an nice evening now.� And then she left, never to be heard from again.
I did not think much of this incident until my parents came home that evening. When we told them about the strange questions we were asked they looked at each other and I could tell they were scared. They were relieved that my brother had said what he did. They warned us to do the same thing in other similar situations so that we would not be taken from them for any ridiculous reasons.
http://www.rawfriends.com/andressohns.html I encourage everyone to support them in any way.
Valya: Now that I am 19 years old, I am wondering about my future children: will I have to feed them at McDonalds to make sure they stay with me? Will I have to hide my children in order to keep them as healthy as I am? Even official resources criticize the standard American diet for causing obesity and sickness.
Victoria: When I hear that feeding a child good, healthy organic food is called abuse, I realize that the organizations that protect children�s rights urgently need nutritional education. Yet, I wouldn�t justify separating a child from his or her parents, even if they fed this child nothing but TV dinners and candy, which have been scientifically proven to be the main cause of most degenerative disease. Being a mother myself I know that nobody in the world cares for children more than their own mother and father. That is why I believe that if parents would clearly see that feeding their children processed food results in poor health, many of parents would encourage their children to eat better. I am glad to see a lot of scientific research done recently in the world. Even our new food pyramid has been changed towards eating more fruits and vegetables. The raw food diet is becoming very popular in every state and country. I would like to inspire my readers to support the Andressohn family so that they win their case. This case is being widely covered by the media and will definitely shift the mainstream attitude towards alternative eating. It is an opportunity to help all children become healthier without fear.

Greens Make the Body More Alkaline.
Sometimes I feel that in the search for health, we have been going over the same ground for many decades. In the meantime, the most prevalent illnesses, heart disease and cancer, are getting worse every year. Let us look at the statistics.
�       This year, 1,500 people will die from cancer every day, making it the second leading cause of death in the US.
As I observed both in Russia and in United States the allopathic medicine seems to have been focusing on the secondary causes of disease. To me that�s like pushing a car that ran out of gas with your bare hands instead of putting gas in, or comforting a hungry person instead of feeding them. So what is the main cause of disease?
Dr. Warburg, in his Nobel Prize winning study, illustrated the environment of the cancer cell. A normal healthy cell undergoes an adverse change when it can no longer take in oxygen to convert glucose into energy.  In the absence of oxygen, the cell reverts to a primal nutritional program to nourish itself by converting glucose through the process of fermentation. The lactic acid produced by fermentation lowers the cell pH (acid/alkaline balance) and destroys the ability of DNA and RNA to control cell division. The cancer cells then begin to multiply.  The lactic acid simultaneously causes severe local pain as it destroys cell enzymes. Cancer appears as a rapidly growing external cell covering, with a core of dead cells.
By the time I read his genius speech, he had been dead a long time. I wonder, if this discovery was so important that he received the Nobel Prize, why doesn�t everyone know what pH is?
As soon as scientists discovered what healthy human blood pressure and temperature are supposed to be, devices were invented to measure them. Whenever I went to a doctor, my blood pressure and temperature were measured, but I don�t ever remember a doctor measuring my pH. High blood pressure and fever, though not pleasant, do not cause cancer. The acidic condition of the blood does. It is not my opinion; it is what the internationally renowned scientist Dr. Warburg has proven. For this statement he won the Nobel Prize. As the outcome of the recognition of his discovery, I think it is vital to make pH information available at once to everyone.
It makes great sense to me that children should study the pH index of all foods at school and all foods that are sold to the public should have their pH index printed on the content label, together with calories and nutrients. For example, parmesan cheese should have a red warning label with a pH sign saying it is extremely acid forming, +34! While spinach may have a golden medal sign with a pH index �14, as an excellent, alkalizing food. The indexes have been measured in biochemical research and cannot be guessed by just looking at foods. Some of the foods are surprisingly alkaline or acidic; for example, most people are amazed to learn that lemon is the most alkalizing fruit, while walnuts are acidifying. I think it�s important for the U.S. Department of Agriculture�s food pyramid to reflect the pH of different foods as soon as possible. I imagine that many people�s health could instantly be improved by their ability to consume alkalizing foods that are more beneficial for human health.
Considering fats to be the main contributor to weight gain is a popular delusion among dieters. This misconception leads to massive confusion and explains why so many overweight people are not succeeding in losing weight. I am sure that many people would be shocked to find out that we may gain weight from eating, say, cheese, not only because it is rich in fat, but mostly due to its high acidic level. In response to high pH acid, the body creates fat cells to store the acid. For example, almonds have 70% fat, and pork has only 58%. However, pork has one of the highest acid values, -38, while almonds are alkaline forming, +3. This is why it is so crucial to know, in addition to nutritional value, the pH index-- to have it available and handy at every store, printed on each food label, showing its ability to alkalize the body.
I remember how in 1965 my mother was in tears after reading an article in a Russian health magazine that stated that watermelons and cucumbers do not have any nutritional value. They were our family�s most favorite foods. Forty years later, I am learning that cucumbers and watermelons are so alkalizing that they could neutralize the acidifying effect of eating beef. I am glad that my parents continued to buy watermelons, despite of �scientific� recommendations.
Many years ago, back in Russia, when I was studying to be a medical nurse, our professor told us, that the cholesterol in our food did not contribute anything to the blood cholesterol level, because our own liver makes it all. Therefore I was not surprised or disappointed by the diet that my father was receiving while staying at the cardio center. After my dad�s massive heart attack, they served him beefsteak with gravy and milk. Later, after reading a lot of books and articles about the importance of the proper pH balance in the body, I understood, that the so-called "bad" cholesterol, lipoprotein (LDL) is made by our own liver in order to bind the toxins and deactivate the acidic waste that came from certain food, not to cause arteriosclerosis. Unfortunately, I bought my first book on this topic, �Alkalize or Die� two months after my father died from his second heart attack.
Food is not the only cause to alter our pH balance. There are many other factors, such as stress, our mood or music. It is very possible to stay on the best alkalizing diet and still be overweight, tired and unhealthy. Anything that is stimulating could leave an acidic residue in our body; correspondently any activities that are calming and relaxing could make us more alkaline.
Factors that potentially could make us more acid: hearing or saying harsh or bitter words; loud music and noise; being in a traffic jam; feeling jealousy or revenge; hearing baby crying; overworking and over-exercising; beginning or finishing school; going on vacation; watching scary or stressful movies; watching and listening to TV; talking on the phone for a long time; taking on mortgage; paying bills and credit cards, etc.
Factors that potentially could make us more alkaline: giving or receiving a smile or a hug; laughter and jokes, classical or quite music; seeing a puppy; hearing compliment or blessing; receiving a soft massage; staying in a cozy and clean environment, being in nature, watching children laugh and play; walking and sleeping under the stars and moonlight; working in the garden; observing flowers; singing or playing a musical instrument; sincere friendly conversation, and many others.
I find it helpful for myself to observe my inner body reaction to different events around me, and if I notice unwanted feeling of inner stress I try to make changes not only to my diet but to my whole way of living.
Being uneducated about pH balance breeds a lot of confusion among people who are looking for healthy diets, trying many different things, very often without positive results. For example, in my own experience I have been eating only raw food for many years, which while a vast improvement on my previous diet, did not reach optimal results until I began to eat a lot more greens. I read several books and articles on this subject and bought litmus paper with which to measure my pH. However, every time I measured my saliva or urine, it was almost always acid. So I got even more confused and stopped measuring. I was convinced that my diet was the best it could be, because what could be better than a raw food diet? I never understood the importance of keeping the alkaline balance of my body.
Since I started drinking green smoothies, I decided to check my pH balance once again. I tested both my saliva and urine and was surprised to see that my litmus paper had now the stable green color of alkalinity!
As soon as I clearly noticed the tight connection between the food that we intake and our pH balance, I purchased for my family plenty of pH measurement tape and placed it in the bathrooms and kitchens, available at any time, so we could check our pH balance every day and rest assured that our health is out of danger. After staying so many years on a 100% raw diet, I have come to the conclusion that it is impossible to maintain a good alkaline pH balance without consuming large quantities of dark leafy greens, approximately two bunches or one to two pounds every day. Some people try to keep a normal pH balance by taking supplements containing dried greens. While this is certainly better than eating only French fries, I strongly believe that to consume fresh greens is thousands of times better, because supplements are processed food and their nutrition content is altered, as a result of which some of the nutrients (like?) disappear, so that the ratios of the nutrients change greatly. Also, when consumed in forms of capsules and tablets, they enter our body in huge, concentrated doses, and any extra nutrients create extra work for the elimination system.
For this reason, out of all the choices that we have in consuming greens, the green smoothie is a winner, because it is a complete food, it is fresh, and it takes less than a minute to prepare.
Victoria�s long awaited new book about greens and green smoothies contains exciting new information. The author approaches human nutrition from a new angle, comparing the human diet with the diet of chimpanzees. This book is written in a clear style, illustrated with anecdotes, diagrams and pictures. The results of the Roseburg study conducted by Victoria and Dr Fieber, reveal the unique healing potential of green smoothies. This book is scheduled to come out during the last week of August 2005. We recommend pre-ordering this book early to avoid waiting. Your orders will be processed in the order they were received.

As relações internacionais da Turquia referem-se aos laços diplomáticos, comerciais e culturais entre a República da Turquia e outros países ao redor do mundo. Historicamente, com base nas reformas de inspiração ocidental de Mustafa Kemal Atatürk, essas políticas têm colocado uma ênfase muito forte na relação da Turquia com o mundo ocidental, especialmente em relação aos Estados Unidos, a Organização do Tratado do Atlântico Norte e a União Europeia. O período pós-Guerra Fria têm visto uma diversificação das relações, com a Turquia buscando fortalecer sua presença regional nos Bálcãs, Oriente Médio e no Cáucaso, bem como o seu objetivo histórico de adesão à União Europeia. Sob o governo de Recep Tayyip Erdoğan, a influência da Turquia vem crescendo no Oriente Médio baseada na doutrina de profundidade estratégica, também chamada de Neo-otomanismo.

Relações bilaterais

A Turquia conduz uma política externa orientada pelo princípio de "paz em casa, paz no mundo", tal como estabelecido por Mustafa Kemal Atatürk. A sua ascensão a uma posição proeminente no cenário internacional também é uma consequência de sua postura sólida, que vigorosamente busca por legitimidade, e da crença de que a sua própria segurança e estabilidade só podem ser alcançadas através da segurança e estabilidade da região. Neste âmbito, a Turquia está determinada a se tornar um membro pleno da União Europeia, como parte de seu esforço bicentenário para alcançar o mais alto nível da civilização contemporânea.

Concedendo especial importância aos seus laços transatlânticos, a Turquia está fortalecendo suas relações tanto com os Estados Unidos e os países europeus, enquanto continua a desenvolver as suas relações com os países dos Bálcãs, Oriente Médio e Norte da África, e também com o Sul do Cáucaso, Ásia Meridional e Ásia Central, fazendo uso de seus laços estreitos. A Turquia igualmente busca o aprofundamento das relações com a África Subsaariana, América Latina e Ásia-Pacífico, que abriga diversos países emergentes.

Europa

A Turquia têm sido um candidato à entrada como membro pleno na União Européia desde 1999. No entanto, as conversas diplomáticas começaram apenas em Outubro de 2005, com a simbólica abertura das negociações de adesão. Com uma grande economia emergente e sendo um membro da OTAN e do G20, a Turquia é um parceiro fundamental para a União Europeia. É reconhecida como um jogador ativo na política externa regional, com uma localização estratégica, inclusive para a segurança energética dos países membros do bloco.

Porém, atualmente ainda existem uma série de obstáculos no caminho de Ancara a um acordo, nomeadamente no que diz respeito às relações com o Chipre, cujo território ao norte, invadido pelos turcos em 1974, levou a um conflito militar armado que ainda persiste. A liberdade de expressão no país e os direitos da minoria curda também são pontos relevantes. Talvez, o mais sensível de todos os argumentos dos estados-membros contra a Turquia gira em torno de diferenças culturais e religiosas.

Dino-x does exactly nothing. I dropped some dino x on them under a microscope and they liked it!
Are these the ones your previous post says do the 'ostreopsis whirl'?
I had a definite id on my 2ndary dinos until I noticed that the reference pic for the spp was at 1000X and my species was at 100X. Close..but not quite.
yep, their normal mode of movement is the whirl like what is usually described for ostreopsis.
I really would like an answer for this question. Does dipping a coral and rock in a coral dip solution do anything to dino's?
I think people have dipped in some solution of hydrogen peroxide to kill dinos and microalgae directly.
Can't speak to how corals respond to the dip.
I am asking for sharing of frags purposes. I certainly don't want to infect other tanks or introduce more dino's into my own tank. So does dipping corals in a coral dip like Seachem coral dip or lugols before putting them into the tank prevent or kill the dino's? Or does anyone do a fresh water dip before adding new corals to a QT or display?
This picture is from a tank we all know and what it says is that all the corals and equipment in the world will not free you from dinoflagellates.
Looking at more recent pictures it looks like he is stuck with them, just like us.

Nature has dinos too. It also has ebola.
There are pathogens - we are never "free" of them. But that doesn't mean that life is doom and gloom. Let's inject some hope.
I recently had a small resurgence of a patch of dinos coincident with a coral death. The coral was encrusting but had thick porous tissue (monti spongodes) and had been growing on the rock until another parasite (monti nudi) killed it. I couldn't remove it, so it was decaying in place.
This was frustrating. As soon as the predators would come out to eat them, they'd disappear into the water column. By day, the fish were awake and the pods were hiding. So the dinos rematerialized in the same area. My enemy's enemy, I guess.
I used some superglue to cover up the area, but they found enough little gaps to continue to feed on the rock infused coral carcass.
THEN - I noticed a little patch on another rock in my low flow area where I had accidentally bumped my polyp rock against it - leaving some dead coral residue.
Same activity - pods at night = dino disappear. pods hiding by day = dino reappear to feed on dead coral region.
The area was difficult to access, so I couldn't clean up the residue.
So - I turned up my UV from 6 hours at night to 24/7! A week later, both regions are clear.
I can't be sure of all my cause-effect conclusions, but the facts are the facts. You can draw your own conclusions.
Agreed, it's not that direct, not that magic. this thread wouldn't be here if it was.
I've also been messing around with adding micro-life.
I took skimmate, poured it in a bottle with a very slow air bubbler, set it in the sun during day and 2700k light at night. After a day and a half the mix had gone from brown to a light green.
Two tiny beakers with dino sand and tank water from the back of my tank (amphidinium) so each had 20 ml.
One I added 10 ml more of tank water (control) and the other I added 10 ml of my sun-treated skimmer "green tea".
I watched them to see who would "win" between the microlife and the dinos.
the dino population didn't change in a dramatic way, but the microlife really continued to progress.
After 48 hours (lit around clock day 1, lit during day, dark at night for day 2) this is what a representative sample of each looked like under the microscope.
skimmer "green tea" batch: still dinos also, but they are outnumbered 10-100 to 1 by other micro-life of many different sizes - nothing pod sized was seen.
If moving sandbed far far away from a Dino monoculture is a key to treatment, then this is good to see. I'm repeating the experiment on a gallon-size scale, while still watching the small beakers. If things progress along these lines, I'll start dumping sun cooked skimmer "green tea" into the tank sandbed.
Nice to see someone else doing tests!
I don't think you are that new!!. How about a youtube update. I love you videos!!.
After 72hr update. Today it was a dramatic change.
The control beaker was still majority dinos.
The beaker with the "green tea" added had almost no dinos. I had to take sample after sample to find any at all. The biggest concentration I could find in 10+ samples was this one with 4 whole dinos.
I if the 1 gallon test is following the lines of the beakers tomorrow I might accelerate starting this in my main tank.
The beaker with the "green tea" added had almost no dinos.
Now we have to have theories on what is really going on.
I think that dinos can't tolerate their own toxins and it to be the regulating factor on their population densities.
I also think it is likely that they have no control over it and it is simply released when they die and come apart.
In the skimmate are loads of dead dinos.
In one of my tests I siphoned the dinos off the sandbed and added them later with "good" results.
Most of my dinos died and so did a few of my fish.
If this is true your green tea killing effect could be palytoxin rather than devouring organisms.
I like your tests, a lot.

We have been discussing dinos here fo a few years with some progress, but we have not come up with any means of repeatable method that is certain to get dinos under acceptable control. We have probably shed more light on them than anyone else anywhere and should be proud of that.
There are loads of reefers with this problem and they don't have a clue. They can't keep SPS corals and just keep buying new ones or get out of the hobby out of frustration. They are for sure in their hundreds if not thousands in any give time so uniting them in the hunt is a good idea.
I've written to a dozen of scientists and none of them even bothers to reply. It's raining up their noses and their knowledge is usually only good for an extremely narrow field.
We are in prime position with our infected reef tanks to do all kinds of test and here is the spot to share them.
We need thinkers and doers and the hobby free of this pest.
To recruit and unite them we need marketing.
... your green tea killing effect could be palytoxin rather than devouring organisms.
I hope your theory is right. That would be some delicious Shakespearean level irony.
I'm not a bio or chem person (physics degree) so my guesses may not be grounded in much, but here's my thoughts behind the tests.
1. Why do dinos make toxins and have chemical/physical methods for collecting together in such close quarters (chemical markers for their territory, mucous mats, attaching in strands)? Wouldn't spreading out be better?
Because they are weak! They can't thrive in a biodiverse free-for-all. They need a near vacuum of diversity and competition to really get rolling, and the toxins in close quarters enforce the near vacuum (bacteria farms).
2. If you have brown and green photosynthetic stuff, and put them in sunlight with plenty of nutrients, what happens?
Also interesting is what is definitely NOT happening in the beakers.
There are no signs whatsoever of pods of any kind. Not saying pods eating dinos isn't important elsewhere, just saying it ain't happening in these beakers.
I have a massive plague of what looks just like ostreopsis right now. Since my tank has always shown low phosphate and nitrate I am trying the "dirty water" method. How long will it take to work, if it does? I have greatly increased feeding for about a week and a half and haven't seen much other than more dinos. I don't know how much longer my gorgonians are going to survive.
Can we conduct a quick survey of the type of lighting everything is using?
Update from post 2696: My Dinos have been in check ever since I installed my UV sterilizer. They are very manageable. Corals are not bothered by Dinos anymore, all are open and happy and got color back I thought was lost to months of Dinos bothering them. There is just a slight brown dusting on the sand floor and they do not gather in numbers enough to have the strings at all( no Dinos on the rocks). Still trying the dirty method currently with PO4 at .10ppm and nitrates at 8ppm. Even did some water changes with no significant Dino increase.
However, Dinos have been on the rise in the last few days. This coincides with my Return pump impeller breaking (new impeller in the mail). My UV sterilizer is offline as well since it is fed from a manifold from my return pump. Dinos has doubled in 3 days. At this rate my Dinos will be back to the numbers they previously were in a matter of a week or two.
When the impeller gets in I plan on doing a 2 day lights out with UV again to get them back in check.
So far while we come up with a real proven solution, UV is an excellent bandage and its let me not worry about Dinos even though they are still there in small numbers.
Use the window the UV has given you to add back diversity.
Added Seachem stability for the heck of it.
My pod population has exploded i attribute that to going dirty... they are every where even during the daylight hours. I have not added pods since the initial cycle was done last March.
Thought about adding phyto but haven't yet. I'm kind of just riding the wave. Honestly if they stay at the levels with my UV running im more than happy and call it a win.
Do you have a fuge, chaeto?
I've had success with chaeto and ATS as incubators of life. I also run a system that's free of mechanical filtration (except for my skimmer, GFO and carbon) - no sponges, meshes or nets.
So update on my situation.
Dirty method 3+ weeks adding mb7, bio spira, phycopure, phyto feast, mysis cubes, and Cyclops cubes...dinos seem to be retreating a little. Downside is some of the sps rtn'ed..but others seem fine. My chaeto exploded and my fuge is full to the top. Pod population is great also muniid pods are increasing and populating my fuge. Anyone else's chaeto explode during dirty method?
I have already ruled out light types, color and intensity years ago.
What is left for comparison are uncovered Metal Halides for UV properties.
My dinos grow fine with one 80W T5 bulb or 1000W of T5 and MH.
I have MH and UV/RB LED.
For a period of about a month, the glass on the double ended MH bulb was off (not intentionally). This was before there were any corals in the tank - and the rocks at the very top were completely bleached dead due to the UV radiation. It was like a complete elimination of all life... not even algae could grow there.
That may have been one of the causes of the dino flareup... lack of life... I'm sure the surface water plankton was decimated by day.


A new fluidized bed combustion system is offsetting tipping fees at an Ontario recycled paper mill.
In operation for more than a year, a Precision Energy Services (PES) sludge-to-energy system at Atlantic Packaging's Whitby mill processes 100,000 tonnes per year of paper mill sludge that was previously being sent to local area landfills, eliminating the cost of sludge disposal and reducing the cost of fossil fuels by the offset generation of plant steam.
The mill, formerly a producer of newsprint, reopened in 2013 after the company undertook a conversion project allowing it to produce 100 per cent recycled lightweight paper for the manufacture of high performance corrugated packaging products.
In addition to the Whitby location, Atlantic Packaging owns and operates two other recycled paper mills – the New Forest Paper mill and the Scarborough Liner mill – located in Scarborough, Ont., the home of Atlantic Packaging's corporate office.
The Whitby mill project is the integrated corrugated packaging company's second PES sludge-to-energy system implementation. In 2011, PES supplied a similar system to Atlantic Packaging's Scarborough Liner facility – 111 Progress Avenue – replacing combustion technology that was unable to reliably burn the wet paper mill sludge.
"We are excited to announce that our client's second sludge-to-energy plant was completed in early 2017. Our client will see a sufficient reduction in the plant's overall waste disposal cost as well as a major reduction of their energy costs by the savings obtained in burning the biomass fuel to produce steam, offsetting the use of natural gas," says Mike Oswald, president of Hayden, Idaho-based PES.
In 2016, PES received a design, supply, supervise and startup contract at the Whitby facility for a complete biomass energy system incorporating its Fluid Bed Combustion System. It designed the system to supply the necessary energy in the form of hot gas to dry the 60 per cent + MC wet basis sludge to 40 per cent MC wet basis with the majority of the energy produced from the sludge used to generate process steam. As a result, the combined energy is produced from a single system without the use of natural gas, says PES, explaining that natural gas is only used for startup of the system to obtain the required temperature for sludge feeding.
Producing process steam from the sludge-waste residuals – or biomass – promotes the plant's green energy independence and the company's green recycling plan by reducing the volume of waste sent to landfills.
"I think (an increasing number of) pulp and paper companies are being more green-oriented and (concerned) with the recycling and re-utilization of waste fibre," says Oswald.
PES designed the complete system and supplied all system equipment, including: the wet and dry sludge storage bins, the wet sludge feed system to the dryer, a single pass rotary drum dryer, the dry sludge collection and storage bin, the dry sludge fuel metering and conveyance system, the PES Fluidized Bed Combustion System with automatic ash cleaning system, a 35,000 PPH, 250 psig waste heat boiler specially designed by PES to allow removal of the high ash quantities generated from the fuel, the boiler economizer and air heater, gas cleaning system, and ash collection and storage silo.
"Many recycled pulp and paper plants have this problem. When you (operate) recycled paper plants, you have to take what is available as far as raw material and all that material does not necessarily re-pulp for you and you get a degree of material that is fibre but is not usable for paper. It is an industry-wide problem," says Oswald.
The majority of the sludge-to-energy system was designed to fit into the Whitby plant's existing infrastructure, allowing most of the equipment – including the boiler system – to be inside the existing building with only the dryer, baghouse and ash silo outside of the building. A small portion of the building roof was removed to install the boiler system, although the height of equipment required a penthouse to be installed over the boiler.
The sludge-to-energy system receives and processes the incoming sludge, and combusts the sludge leaving only an ash that is white in colour with no carbon residual. This ash, according to PES, is collected from nine points throughout the boiler, economizer, air heater, multiclones and baghouse and is conveyed pneumatically to an ash silo. The ash system was designed and supplied by PES to have no rotary valves, which it describes as a constant maintenance issue on biomass boilers. The sealed ash system conveys all of the fly ash to a sealed ash silo for unloading into sealed trailers, which PES says will help ensure the complete boiler system is sealed from the point that the fuel is pneumatically conveyed into the fluid bed combustor.
The ash is held in the ash silo for pick up by a nearby cement plant where it is utilized as an admixture to the manufactured concrete. As a result, the ash from the sludge presents the mill with major environmental and sustainability advantages, as it does not require landfilling, says Oswald.
The ash produced by the boiler system has very similar properties to Kaolin clay, a feedstock which accounts for approximately 40 per cent of cement's composition. The sludge ash can be added (substituted) at approximately 5 per cent by weight, and actually, improves the final concrete performance. If the ash were to be used in a ready-mix plant, it could be used to directly substitute cement, but the sludge ash would require grinding to a consistent, fine particle size. PES has successfully designed and implemented ash-grinding equipment in other energy systems to increase the marketability of the ash.


One observant guy, CHIPFLIP, mentioned for me that the entries listed as TakeTracker in the SOAMC= recordings are probably not TakeTracker and I agree. TakeTracker was a obscure and rare tracker for PC/DOS and it contains the format header identifier as "16CH", not "M.K." as we would find after looking at the files in hex view.
After some research I found that the DeliPlayer2 for PC identified certain types of mod. files as "TakeTracker" instead of the more probable format "Protracker". To cope with this issue, I have updated my "stats" list to change "TakeTracker" into "Protracker" rather. The file "players/dpTrackers.dll" in a standard DP2 installation is therefore not to be trusted. No matter, we all know DP2 was left in a beta stage which is sad.
Anyway, this will boost the "Protracker" modules from 77149+6252 to 83401.
The database online will also be updated so the term "TakeTracker" will not be present, as there is 100% no "16CH" songs recorded in the SOAMC=.
The magic trick to correctly snip out the false TakeTracker modules not belonging to Amiga Format was to search in the mod files for "‹¾'º‹¾¼'ºº"¨¶«·©º¬¶°±ïñæºþþþþþ" at the end of the suspected module file.
They do not appear in regular Amiga created/saved modules in ANY Sound/Pro/Noise tracker formats.
End conclusion, how to find a TakeTracker file manually!
CHIPFLIP: The Most Popular Tracker Ever?

The process of inputting this data can be very time consuming, and is limited to one particular kind of information. Every thing we love about civilization is a product of intelligence, so amplifying our human intelligence with artificial intelligence has the potential of assisting civilization flourish like in no way before - as extended as we manage to hold the technology helpful.

In 1 gorgeous instance, it helped a household uncover a kid kidnapped 27 years earlier. DNA testing confirmed the family connection.Although robots have been replacing humans in manual professions for years, enhancing AI will quickly do the very same to folks performing routine cognitive tasks as effectively, the report warned. Any job that entails repetition - such as searching via legal documents - is at risk. As AI tools for human capital and efficiency management turn out to be common, companies will be able to recruit, hire and create men and women primarily based on talent, value and expertise as opposed to years of expertise or education levels. We will have substantially more computing energy and data-driven insights to make calculated, well-informed choices.Which programming language need to you learn to plumb the depths of AI? You are going to want a language with numerous very good machine learning and deep learning libraries, of course. It should also feature very good runtime functionality, very good tools help, a large community of programmers, and a wholesome ecosystem of supporting packages. That still leaves lots of good possibilities.But, Sharma says, "it really is not just click the following web page the data it's also the style." She cites the fact that most customized AI assistants, like Siri or Alexa, are developed to sound female.

In a globe exactly where AI is becoming far more and far more effective, these ingrained biases can be potentially damaging.No, the new jobs will have to be doing jobs where either humans excel or where we pick not to have machines. But here's the contradiction. In fifty to hundred years time, machines will be super-human. So it really is hard to envision of any job where humans will stay greater than the machines. This implies the only jobs left will be these where we choose humans to do them.

#59 – Lupin III: The Castle of Cagliostro Review feat. Daryl Surat (Anime World Order, Otaku USA)
Since our previous Lupin the Third episodes (on The Mystery of Mamo and The Fuma Conspiracy) have done extremely well and everyone seems to like them, we decided we definitely needed to do another one before 2018 was over. So, we did! and we made it extra special by having on Daryl Surat! You may know Daryl from his long-running anime podcast, Anime World Order, or from his articles in Otaku USA and on Anime News Network. And if you've ever been scarred at convention panels by the names of "Anime's Craziest Deaths" or "Panel of DOOM", you can blame this guy.
(Anime World Order: www.animeworldorder.com)
(Otaku USA: http://www.otakuusamagazine.com/)
In this episode, we talk about the second Lupin the Third theatrical film, the legendary directorial debut of Hayao Miyazaki before he founded Studio Ghibli, Lupin the Third: The Castle of Cagliostro.
During catchup we introduce Daryl, ask him what's been going on with AWO, Otaku USA, and how the First of the North Star game is going. Bill talks Red Dead II, Tobias talks SSSS. Gridman, and Austin talks Dark Souls Remastered (a game franchise that Daryl's 60ish year old father is incredibly good at).
We then talk about the movie, the Lupin franchise at large, it's tonal differences, the production staff of Cagliostro, Miyazaki's flair, "asbestos suits", Tobias' experience watching his FIRST LUPIN THING, and how amazing Discotek is.
Want to watch The Castle of Cagliostro for yourself? As of the release of this episode it is on Netflix and available on home video from Right Stuf and Discotek Media.
(Netflix: https://www.netflix.com/title/70050576)
(Right Stuf: https://www.rightstufanime.com/Lupin-the-3rd-The-Castle-of-Cagliostro-Blu-ray-Hyb-Collectors-Edition)
We are happy to remind everyone that Bill has graciously provided a copy of The Rose of Versailles Part 1 as a FREE giveaway to one of you listeners out there! As we stated in the beginning of the episode, you can be entered to WIN by popping over to our iTunes account and leaving us a 5 star rating and review.

Pete Rock Opens His Vault To Unleash "One, Two, A Few More"
Hear an unreleased cut from the hip-hop production legend.
By Larry Fitzmaurice
How's this for a long-brewing sequel: On June 23, legendary hip-hop producer Pete Rock will release Petestrumentals 2, the sequel to his 2001 beats collection Petestrumentals. "One, Two, A Few More" is a low-key cut with that classic Pete Rock bump, and as he told FADER in an email, it's a beat he's been sitting on for a minute now: "...The first single "One, Two, A Few More" is actually a beat I made in 1995 and just sat on for years for the right moment. Now, I get a chance to release this and more new & unreleased music never heard by my fans with Mello. This instrumental LP will inspire the masses in anything you are doing. Just apply P2 to it and get on the road to success."

This course is offered full-time.
Usual contact time through lectures and seminars is nine hours per week. The timetable is designed to give plenty of opportunity for independent study and one-to-one or small group tutorials with tutors.
The course content is delivered through a combination of lectures, seminars and workshops. All modules are supported by active use of the university's online learning environment.
In the first year you will study creative studio techniques together with the physical properties of sound which will inform other work on the course. You will be working on creative projects, aimed at opening up new possibilities through an engagement with new audio technologies to develop creative strategies as used in contemporary music and sound art practices. In addition to industry standard production software like Logic Pro, Protools and Ableton Live, we emphasise creative work with musical programming environments such as Pure Data and Max/MSP in order to enable the design of musical interfaces, installations, or systems based on individual creative projects.
The first year covers a wide field: from sound synthesis and acoustics, perception of sound and music analysis, to musical composition and instrument design. Various project assignments will encourage you to reflect upon your own practice and develop creative projects that you will present to your fellow students. You will also write an essay on a topic of your choice related to the course profile areas. Embedded in the course curriculum are tasks and methods that provide you with transferable skills, such as project development, management and presentation skills, and academic writing.
Practice 1: Introduction to Sound
Through establishing a solid basis in the understanding of sound from a phenomenological and psychoacoustic perspective, this module will encourage you to increase the level of experimentation in your composition exercises. By exploring diverse soundscapes, listening to and analysing important musical works of the past 70 years, you will widen the scope of their own compositional approaches. New technical skills will be contextualised within diverse aesthetic and historic musical approaches. The aim is to conduct an extensive ear training and increase the your compositional portfolio.
Practice 2: Sound as Material – Perception and Experimentation
This module will introduce you to creative applications and techniques relating to work in sound studios, loop based music and sound installations. You will also be introduced to the nature of sound, synthesis, psychoacoustics, audio programming and compositional techniques. You will be encouraged to present work in the context of public performances and collaborations with external music organisations.
Practice 3: Sound Organisation
This module will introduce you to a variety of creative approaches to the concept of sound organisation as it is applied in contemporary sound art practices. You will engage with techniques for gathering of materials, customization of technical skills, conceptualization, listening and composition, and methods for organizing sound in both virtual and physical spaces.
Practice 4: Creative Audio Systems
In this module you will examine music and sound synthesis in the context of contemporary arts and performance by focusing on three key topics: iterative or generative music; new interfaces for musical expression (NIME) and interactive sound installations; and Network Music and Human-Computer Interaction. You will work in groups to research, develop and critique your projects.
HCS 1: Programme Profile Introduction
This module will introduce you to the profile of the Digital Music and Sound Arts programme. Taught as interrelated lectures and seminars, you will develop your knowledge of the wide and complex field of artistic sound practice and gain an understanding of its practical, conceptual, cultural and aesthetic implications. You will explore the experimental music and sound works in the cultural context in which they emerged in the 20th / 21st Century. You will practice presentation skills through presenting you own work.
HCS 2: Experimental Sound and Music in Contemporary Culture
This module will continue exploring the experimental music and sound works of the 20th and the 21st centuries, the aesthetic concepts that underpinned them, and the cultural context in which they emerged. This is introduced through individual key topics. You will also be introduced to research methodologies and academic writing. You will select a topic of your own choice and will be guided through the research methodologies and writing practices required for producing an academic text.

In your final year, you will work more independently than in previous years. This year consists of the following elements:
a research essay written in the first semester
a practical project in the second semester
the completion of a professional practice in the second semester
the development of your final project in the first semester.
The practical project is an intensive process where all the professional skills (practical, intellectual, organisational and production management) gained during the course of studies are condensed into one well developed, documented and presented final project, that will be publicly exhibited during the degree show in June. Your final year will involve one-to-one tutorials, study groups, seminars, lectures and professional practice sessions. All years attend creative studio techniques and audio seminar sessions and benefit from ongoing technical workshops.
