Carp are popular along the large midwestern rivers (Illinois, Mississippi=20
etc.). They process the filets in a machine that consists of numerous=20
knife blades about a quarter inch a part. The "scored" carp is deep fried,=

and is delicious. The scoring technique takes care of the many Y bones=20
that had been mentionned before. They are cut so small, that you don't=20
notice them when you eat the filet.

The third annual Aquaponics and Tilapia Aquaculture Short Course is
scheduled for June 24-30. UVI has been a leader in aquaponics research
for 20 years and has a commercial scale system that produces 11,000 lbs
(5 metric tons) of tilapia and 1560 cases (30/week) of lettuce
annually. Other production systems are also covered in the class.
The full course announcement is at
http://rps.uvi.edu/AES/Aquaculture/UVIShortCourse.html.
The class is a 7-day course that will provide in-depth knowledge of the
principles and practical application of the aquaponic and
greenwater tank culture systems that have been developed at the
University of the Virgin Islands. Participants will be introduced
to a variety of system designs that maintain water quality by various
solids removal techniques and by hydroponic plant culture
(aquaponics), a suspended growth process (greenwater tank culture) or
fixed-film nitrification. Fish production instruction will
be conducted using both the Nile tilapia (Oreochromis niloticus) and red
tilapia. Hydroponic plant production will focus on
lettuce, but will also cover many other vegetables as well as culinary
and medicinal herbs and ornamental flowers.
How to meet your here.

Hi Donald,
There are still several people who would be interested in a winter course. I
am still in the background as requested. I believe that there is a market
for a winter course at UVI . Hey, don't you people still snorkel in
February?
I'm sure Dr. J. remembers how bad we want to get out in Feb., Mar., ?? Dr.
J. said that he didn't think that I could get 5 people. Trust me. I have had
much more than that contact me.
Just something to think about.
I would love to attend the course, but I just can't in the summertime.
Sorry if I am a P.I.A. I just am.
Take care......Steve

A friend and I camped out at lake Ft. Gibson in NE Oklahoma one summer.
Thinking we would catch all the crappie we could eat, we neglected to bring
much food or cash. We wound up with a single 1/2 lb crappie one night, and
a 10 pound carp I caught on a length of kite string with an earthworm
attached via hook. Knocked Mr. Carp on the head with a stick, filetted and
fried him in butter. He was one of the tastiest critters I've ever eaten.
Didn't notice many Y bones, but we were pretty hungry at the time.
Carp are popular along the large midwestern rivers (Illinois, Mississippi
etc.). They process the filets in a machine that consists of numerous

Bruce - Why is it that you think it's this list? I'm just curious. I show
no message through our personal mail or the mail group today that contained
that virus.
This particular one I have received several times, never seemingly tied to
any other message, or I would be following up with the poster to clear their
system. I really think this is a random "monster" that is thrown out to
email batches at sporatic times. Does anyone else know the specifics on this?

Hi:
I think Bruce is right. This thing keeps coming in. Initially we thought it was generated
locally.
However, a short while ago, it arrived with a batch of emails from the aquaponics list only. I
just
had two from Mr.hahaha with today's mail. There were other possible sources this time, but it
might be
worth a follow up. Hope this helps. I sure would like to have it gone.

By-Products"--May 8-11, 2001
From: Myra D Colgate
The course, "Profitable Use of Aquaculture Byproducts", to be given by
the non-profit organization, Aquaculture International, Inc., is slated
for, Tuesday, May 8, through Friday, May 11, 2001, at Nantahala Village
near Bryson City. This course will focus on practical, innovative ways
in which fish farming or processing waste can be made to be profitable.
It will include the production and use of methane to provide energy
needs, etc., the practical use of byproducts of anaerobic digestion,
various types of composting, vermicomposting, tubifex worm production,
fish soluble nutrients for organic plant production, hydrolysates for
agriculture and aquaculture use, ensilage of fish processing waste for
animal feed and higher value products for medicinal and industrial use.
Specialists with various expertise have been selected, the class will be
informal allowing plenty of time for questions and personal attention,
even into the evenings, as most everyone should be staying in the
Village. Friday morning is set aside for a trip to selected field sites
of interest located in this area.
Charles Johnson, a fish specialist and founder/president of Aquaculture
International, Inc., with many years of teaching experience, will be one
of the presenters and the facilitator. He has also worked as a
consultant with fish growers in other countries including Canada, Sweden
and Armenia. Other course instructors will be: Dr. George Flick,
Extension food scientist, Dept. of Food Science and Tech., VA Tech,
Blacksburg, VA; Dr. Joe Fontenot, professor of animal science, Dept. of
Animal & Poultry Sciences, VA Tech., Blacksburg, VA; Regina Guyer, grad.
student in civil engineering, UNC-Charlotte, Charlotte, NC; Dr. Helene
Hilger, asst. professor, Dept. of Civil Engineering, UNC-Charlotte,
Charlotte, NC.
This could also be a great destination vacation for either or both of
the weekends of that week, as Bryson City, NC is only ten miles from the
Great Smoky Mountains National Park and Cherokee, and 50 miles from
Gatlinburg, TN. The course is to be $125 for the three-and-a-half days
and three evenings.
Students, WNC residents, accompanying spouses who also take the course,
and ministry people missionaries, etc., can take the course for $50.
