How to attract lady bugs
Does anyone have advice on attracting and keeping lady bugs in the vegtable garden? I hear they like to eat aphids.
One of the easiest plants I know to grow for ladybugs is cilantro. It produces a nice flower that attracts the LB and it reseeds in the spring. Beneficial insects are often attracted to plants with tiny white flowers.
You can also overwinter a few carrots in your garden. In the 2nd year they produce a nice flower loved by many good bugs.
Here are some other ideas~
Here is a link that might be useful: Attracting ladybugs
I know I am late replying to this post, but in case someone wants to know how to : leave aphids alone they are great food for lady bugs larvae.Lady bugs will only put their larvae where there is plenty of food.So next time you see aphids on your plants leave those alone, don't be tempted to remove any.Soon lady bugs will find them.In few years you will have lots of lady bugs and they will stay with you if you don't spray and keep the aphids.When I see an aphids I just wait for lady bugs." if you built it they will come"
It works
These attract ladybugs and other aphid/pest predators to my garden:
Sweet Alyssum....allow some to grow among the veggies. They will perform all year thru a few hard frosts if lightly sheared.
Dandelion....allow some to bloom (but not set seed) around the perimeter.
Wild Mustard....
In fact I have my veggies planted where the the borders have a variety of flowering plants. They attract lots of different beneficials: parasitic (braconid) wasps, tachinid flies, hover flies, minute pirate bugs, damsel bugs and mantids. Mantids however are not discriminate and will eat all and everything...a few will do ya!
Hover flies as adults are pollinators, they lay their eggs near aphid colonies where the larvae feed on them for up to 2 weeks. A single larva can consume over 400 aphids!
ALSO if you ever see what looks like a empty aphid shell...it will look white...LEAVE IT BE! Inside that shell are braconid wasp larvae or tachinid fly larvae! The adults lay eggs not only in aphids but also hornworms and other cats, beetles, ect.
Happy gardening!
Also, butterfly weed and I have heard clover.
A shallow dish of water with a rock in it isn't a bad idea either. Provides a water source for all sorts of beneficial insects. Just keep it fresh of course!
I'm including a link with a list of some more flowers and info.
Happy Gardening.
Here is a link that might be useful: Ladybugs
At the beginning of this thread, back in 2003, there is a link, in the 2nd message, named "attracting ladybugs". This link takes you to gardenguides.com and the article on "Luring ladybugs into your garden".
This is actually an article about ladybugs as pests. Did you know that your home can be invaded by ladybugs, one after another, until you have a ladybug infestation. But worry not, this article abounds with remedies. After you've screened all windows, fixed the cracks in the concrete foundation, caulked all holes...well if those volkswagen like pests keep breaking in, get out the vacuum cleaner and suck them up. And if that doesn't work, having a few birds flying around inside the house should take care of business, cause birds will eat the ladybugs...the ones that aren't bitter. And if that still doesn't work, and you're tired of counting the spots on the backs of these nasty creatures...all you need to do next is "spray the walls of your home with a long-lasting pesticide".
To recap, you buy a box of ladybugs to get rid of your aphids in an organic fashion. But the ladybugs turn around, as ladybugs are wont to do, and sneak into your house. You end up with birds flying around the room looking for ladybugs, and all the walls smeared with some incredibly toxic chemical. This was such a great solution that I couldn't not share it...

Honda Civic Replacement Engine Mount Information
You have to buy a vehicle that will be reliable for all your needs and you can depend on a durable Honda. Honda is trusted for building cars and trucks with enduring dependability and comfortable ride feel. An automobile manufactured by Honda can be completely trusted to exhibit truly superior mechanical quality. When a problem crops up or a system must be fixed, don't economize with the wrong component. Your Honda Civic needs the right auto parts to serve at its best efficiency. Good gas mileage comes with the cost of replacing parts, as your Honda Civic has to have high-quality aftermarket and OEM parts to be driven with maximum fuel efficiency. People who revel in performance car or trucks recognize that nothing is more crucial than putting in the best aftermarket parts and accessories. The rubbery elements of the mount, however, can fail, splinter, or fall apart; this failure is occasionally worsened by leaks of transmission fluid or other fluids. These parts are usually made of metal and rubber; the metal bits are quite resistant to deterioration and age. The Honda Civic Engine Mount is a relatively simple set of parts that holds your car's engine in its proper place and mitigates engine vibration. Driving a Honda is an intelligent choice, now maintaining it in top condition is even smarter! Usually the hardest thing about fixing a car or truck is looking for an honest source of reliable parts. Use www.PartsGeek.com every time you want high quality automobile parts and you'll always receive fantastic service and a good price day in, day out.

Convinced he can ride out the slowing fortunes of America's oil and gas industry, Shawn Kluver arrived at Thursday's heavy equipment auction with money to spend and bets to make.
Kluver flew to Colorado from North Dakota on a one-way ticket, confident he'd find bargains to drive home.
"Everyone says we're crazy, but we're hoping to capitalize on the downstroke," he said, walking around the sprawling, dusty auction site, where more than 3,000 bidders haggled over backhoes, bulldozers and the trucks he was shopping for, called hydro excavators.
Across American oilfields, layoffs and auctions
Convinced he can ride out the slowing fortunes of America's oil and gas industry, Shawn Kluver arrived at Thursday's heavy equipment auction with money to spend and bets to make.
Costa Rica Has Gotten All Of Its Energy From Renewables For 75 Days Straight
Costa Rica got 100 percent of its energy from renewables for 75 days straight this year, the state-run Costa Rican Electricity Institute (ICE) announced this week.
The Latin American country hasn't had to use fossil fuels at all so far in 2015, due to heavy rains that have kept hydroelectric power plants going strong. Wind, solar, biomass, and geothermal energy have also helped power the country this year.
"The year 2015 has been one of electricity totally friendly to the environment for Costa Rica," ICE announced in a press release in Spanish this week.
The argument for divesting from fossil fuels is becoming overwhelming
The world has much more coal, oil and gas in the ground than it can safely burn. That much is physics.
Anyone studying the question with an open mind will almost certainly come to a similar conclusion: if we and our children are to have a reasonable chance of living stable and secure lives 30 or so years from now, according to one recent study 80% of the known coal reserves will have to stay underground, along with half the gas and a third of the oil reserves.
If only science were enough.
Pilots attempt to fly solar-powered plane around the world without fossil fuels
Beam them up, sunshine! Two Swiss explorers set off early Monday from Abu Dhabi aboard a solar-powered plane they'll try to steer around the world without a single drop of fuel.
Andre Borschberg first took the wheel of the single-seat Solar Impulse 2 on a leg to Muscat, Oman, before a journey across the Arabian Sea to Ahmedabad, India, on the first day of the 21,700-mile journey.
North Dakota oil boom deflating
Low oil prices haven't yet dimmed confidence in North Dakota, though there may be concerns lingering over the mid-term horizon, those on the ground said.
Oil prices have remained above what some consider the floor price for the recent downturn, trading in recent sessions above the $50 per barrel mark for West Texas Intermediate crude oil. That's more than 18 percent above late January lows, but still 50 percent less than June prices, forcing many in the industry to lay off staff and cut spending on exploration and production.
Explosion at Exxon Mobil refinery in Torrance, California, injures four
An explosion and fire ripped through a gasoline processing unit at an Exxon Mobil refinery in Torrance, California, near Los Angeles on Wednesday, slightly injuring four workers and shattering windows of surrounding buildings, authorities said.
Investigators were trying to determine the cause of the blast, which occurred shortly before 9 a.m. PST (12 p.m. ET), but there was no evidence of foul play, according to Torrance Fire Captain Steve Deuel.
Japan now has more car charging points than gas stations
Nissan Motor Co. has reported that Japan now has more places to charge electric vehicles than gas stations. The country has roughly 34,000 gas stations, compared to 40,000 charging points. The charging points range from stations to home setups.
"An important element of the continued market growth is the development of the charging infrastructure," Nissan Chief Financial Officer Joseph G. Peter told analysts on a conference call, according to Bloomberg Business.

Possible strawberry pest or normal structure?
ErinLynn83July 7, 2013

I want to make sure they aren't a pest! Thanks! I can post more pictures, if needed. They are about 2-3mm long.

Watermelon leaves turning yellow
I have some small varieties of watermelon growning in big containers. One variety is has all the leaves turning yellow. I planted these in Miracle Grow potting mix. Can anyone suggest a reason that this could be happening? Am I missing any certain nutrient?
If it matters, the variety that is doing well is Cream of Saskatchewan. The one that is not doing well is Golden Midget. They are planted in 2 identical 18 gallon containers.
Thanks for the info Farmerdilla! My Golden Midget looked very yellow the other day and I gave it a blast of organic fertilizer to help it along. Good to know that the yellow was normal for this variety, and I'm sure the fertilizer didn't hurt.
When first posting, I was also concerned that there was a single melon growing. Every time a female flower would be ready to open, the fruit would turn yellow and the flower would die.
Looks like it wasn't an issue. I now have about 5 or 6 little melons started on the vines.
Thanks for the info, I won't worry about the leaves turning yellow.

For all of us, it's just a reminder that the way we consume media has changed so drastically and so quickly that the thought of Blockbuster going out of business would have been unthinkable a decade ago.

Recent reviews:
July 27, 2014 - The only reason I have given 4 stars is because it is a lil bit more than I usually spend for a hanging planter. I bought the Blue Marrakesh design and it is so pretty. The bowl, is a nylon, slick material with a plastic drainage device on the bottom. Also, a durable, metal chain and planter perimeter support. I have only had this item 4 weeks, I hope it holds up, I think it will, it seems to be of good quality.
July 21, 2014 - Unique, nice baskets. Ordered one for me and two more for gifts. They loved them as well. Wish they would have had all designs in stock, would have ordered one of each. Highly recommend.
June 24, 2014 - I've bought five! My money went not only for a beautiful hanger but helped children like my beloved grandson make it even more special.
June 6, 2014 - I love these hanging baskets, I bought two of the spring blossoms and have little blue flowers in one and assorted purple, yellow, and red flowers in the other and they are gorgeous, One hangs on the patio and the other on the front porch. They're lightweight and excellent drainage. It also feels good to be helping such wonderful causes.
May 5, 2014 - I love these baskets, not only part of a good cause, but they are lightweight, breathable, and very lovely colors,,,, I have purchased three and given as gifts,,

Clinical project managers conduct and supervise clinical trials. They are responsible for managing a group of clinical professionals during the trial phases and create progress reports based on the team's findings.Read More...
They develop schedules for staff to complete tasks, as well as provide assistance as required by the team. Another of their main duties is identifying obstacles that can prevent effective research processes. They analyze trial information and propose creative solutions to trial issues. In addition, they monitor trial progress and make policy changes when needed. They actively participate in staff meetings to coordinate clinical responsibilities. Clinical project managers incorporate new procedures into the trial process, and they are responsible for training other staff members and following strict safety regulation when conducting trials. They must also sign and respect confidentiality agreements. Most of the time, clinical project managers work in a combination of office and laboratory settings and use a personal computer as one of their main tools.
Clinical project managers should have previous experience conducting clinical trials. A minimum of a bachelor's degree in a field relevant to the research is needed for this position. Additional managerial experience is required, and industry and leadership certifications may be preferred. Clinical project managers must also possess clear understanding of contracts and the scope of research being conducted. They also must have strong leadership and interpersonal skills, as well as the ability to multitask effectively when handling several projects at the same time.
Clinical Project Managers report a narrow range of specific skills. Most notably, facility with Clinical Data Management, Clinical Research, and Project Management are correlated to pay that is significantly above average, leading to increases of 34 percent, 8 percent, and 6 percent, respectively. Competency in Clinical Research frequently indicates knowledge of Project Management.
Median of all compensation (including tips, bonus, and overtime) by years of experience.
Clinical Project Managers with a lot of experience tend to enjoy higher earnings. Salaries for the relatively untried average out to around $67K, but survey participants with five to 10 years of experience earn a significantly higher median of $89K. Professionals who spend a good 10 to 20 years in the workforce haul in an average of $107K. Respondents who claim more than 20 years of experience may encounter pay that doesn't quite reflect their extensive experience; these veterans report a median income of around $114K.

Best time to move zebra grass?
OK. Looks like I should have read the fine print about zebra grass growing to 7 feet. I have a spot that I can move it to but need to know when is the best time to do it: Spring or Fall. I would guess Spring.
Yes, spring is best. But since you're in zone 7, and since you will not be dividing the plant, now will probably be okay. In NC, you will have more time than we up north for the plants to restablish themselves. Be sure to get as much of the roots as possible. Dig the new hole bigger than the root ball; fill in with friable soil (easier for the roots to grow in). Don't fertilize, and don't let the transplant dry out.
Like Jake, I have moved grasses at whim throughout their growing seasons (with okay results), but have since disciplined myself to wait until Spring when I can divide as well.

While I was traveling from Glendive, MT, where SRS Crisafulli is based, to New Orleans, LA, for Battelle's 2015 Contaminated Sediments Conference, the EPA was making an emergency trip from its office in Colorado to Glendive to begin to deal with the Bridger Pipeline oil spill, before this also became a contaminated sediments problem.
This is a stark reminder that while many of these projects are long term, and have defined goals, there are emergencies that require immediate action.
Da Nang Airbase, Vietnam: Cleaning the Ground
Photo: Agent Orange Action Group
At the Battelle Conference, the most unusual presentation came from Dr. Kent Sorenson, of CDM Smith. His client is the United States Agency for International Development (USAID); the site is the Da Nang Airbase, Vietnam. This airbase was used by the US military from 1959–1975. At the north end of the airbase, Operation Ranch Hand mixed, loaded, and stored 100,000 barrels of Agent Orange. The toxic Dioxin (2,3,7,8 – TCDD) is a component of Agent Orange, and was left behind, devastating those with prolonged exposure. The residuals represent the highest levels of dioxin in the world. The clean-up, which is happening now, is Thermal Conduction Heating under Vacuum Extraction, with insulated covers, and heater wells. The volume of material requiring treatment is 42,000 m3 of soil and 45,000 m3 of sediment.
Environmental Remediation at Da Nang Airport: USAID Dioxin Contamination Project Progress: Soil Sampling
Last year, USAID and CDM Smith received an Honor Award in Environmental Communication from the American Academy of Environmental Engineers and Scientists. The award recognized the public information and stakeholder involvement program associated with remediation of dioxin contamination at the Da Nang Airport in Vietnam.
"As we prepare to move and clean this ground, so have we moved mountains to bring the United States and Vietnam to this landmark moment," said U.S. Ambassador David B. Shear. "We are both moving earth and taking the first steps to bury the legacies of our past. I look forward to even more successes to follow," he added. Two U.S. companies, CDM Smith and Tetra Tech Inc., were awarded the contract for construction management and oversight of the entire project in coordination with the Vietnamese ministry.
Kent Sorenson's presentation was focused on the technical aspects of the remediation, and he acknowledged the political and cultural environmental impacts as well.
Other Remediation Sites presented:
The Gowanus Canal. Yes! The Gowanus Canal Photo:
Photo: brainware3000/Flickr
This NYC site was originally a shallow wetland that was an authorized fill site in 1849. There were 3 manufactured gas plants (MGP) plants which discharged into the canal, in addition to sewage.
From the late 1800's to the mid 1900's, hundreds of Manufactured Gas Plants supplied homes and industry with fuel for heating, cooking, and lighting. Today, the New York State Department of Economic Conservation, and others, are overseeing the investigation and cleanup of contamination left behind from these plants.
Brian Carr, Assistant Regional Counsel, U.S. EPA, New York, presented on the history and proposed Gowanus Canal cleanup. There was a Record of Decision (ROD) in 2013. (I had total acronym fatigue and confusion.)
The 100 page ROD document – the Record of Decision – outlines the $500 million cleanup which is now proceeding. What are we cleaning? There are PAHs, PCB's and heavy metals, including mercury, lead, copper and bicycles on their way out of the Gowanus Canal.
Acronym cheat sheet:
PAH: Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons. PAHs have been identified as carcinogenic and mutagenic (as well as teratogenic), and are considered pollutants of concern for the potency of potential adverse health impacts; the same holds true of their presence at significant levels over time in human diets.
PCB: polychlorinated biphenyl. According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), PCBs cause cancer in animals and are probable human carcinogens, and they have been widely disbursed in the environment, way beyond the Hudson River, which we have all heard so much about.
Conference Notes
This conference – the 8th – that Battelle has assembled on this topic was well attended. Organizers commented on the attendance of over 1,000 sophisticated project managers, scientists, vendors, contractors, and representatives of industry – Dow, DuPont, Honeywell, The Boeing Company – as well as the regulatory EPA, and the Scientific community from the Corp of Engineers.
Dr. Todd Bridges, Senior Research Scientist at the Research & Development Center of the US Army Corp in Vicksburg, Mississippi, was particularly outspoken, advocating for full and open deliberations within the Community of Environmental Remediation stakeholders.
Todd led a spirited review of decision making processes, and advocated that "sunlight is the best of disinfectants."
The Conference's closing roundtable panel addressed the question: Can Urban Master Planning Help Resolve the Cost/Benefit Impasse at Large Contaminated Sediment Sites. The panel told stories of reconnecting communities to their rivers, using design competitions and economic development projects to increase the values of the outcomes.
Great idea.
Yes, we will provide updates and comments on the impact of the January 17, 2015 Bridger Pipeline Yellowstone River oil spill on these pages in the weeks and months ahead. So far, of the 50,000 gallons of oil originally believed released, responders have recovered more than 21,000 gallons from both the pipeline and the Yellowstone River.

Manure Managers Expo
Finally, in early June, SRS Crisafulli participated for the first time in the Manure Managers Show in Springfield, Missouri. The Floating Lagoon Pumping System (FLUMP), competed with Agitation Boats at a Dairy Lagoon, and generated interest because of it's low-turbidity and electric approach to moving manure. Design Engineer Jordan Webb was interviewed by Douglas Hamiilton, PdD, Oklahoma State University, Associate Professor, Waste Management Specialist. That interview was filmed and will be available soon.

Happy Hunting one and all.
Links to the 2 Fall Shows:
Well, it's actually a bit of winter schedule, but this winter needs more spring.
We are kicking off our trade show schedule by being in two places: Fargo, North Dakota and Great Falls, Montana. In both cases, we are attending the State Rural Water Show.
At the Fargo Rural Water Show, SRS Crisafulli's Troy Fercho, Dredge Sales and Rental, will be making a presentation: Wastewater Lagoon Dredging Process.
The A Team will then travel to Des Moines, Iowa, for their Rural Water Show (February 24 - 26), and swing by the Pumper Show in Indianapolis. Let us know if you want to meet up. We are traveling lightly at the Pumper Show - you will not find us on the Exhibitors List.
In March, we are working the Idaho Rural Water Show (March 12 - 14) in Boise, and then at the end of April, we will be at the California Rural Water Show at Lake Tahoe. We can't wait for that show - as it will actually be spring then, even if California is experiencing a drought.
Of course, we will also be at the Glendive Agri-Tech Exposition at the Eastern Plains Event Center that opens tomorrow, February 7, and continues into Saturday. We are introducing SRS Crisafulli's DUAL-PRO (540/1000) Power Unit at this event. Please stop by. Our original camouflage trailer pump will also be on display outdoors.
North Dakota Rural Water Association
In many areas of North Dakota, water used for domestic, municipal, and livestock needs, is ofinsufficient quantity and/or quality. This has inconvenienced the residents of small towns and rural areas, as well as retarded the overall economic growth of North Dakota. The formation of rural water systems has helped to bring clean, safe water to many of these areas throughout North Dakota.
Montana Rural Water Association
Provides training and technical assistance to people running systems for drinking water, waste water, including tribal communities.
Iowa Rural Water: Feburary 24 - 26
Conference theme: Power of the Past; Force of the Future
Idaho Rural Water Association March 12 - 14
Quoting from a recent press release in the Idaho Statesman: "Idaho Gov. Otter touted a study in his State of the State address to look at raising the height of the nearly century-old Arrowrock Dam to increase the Treasure Valley's water supply. But if the 348-foot dam is raised, it will be flood control that drives the decision and the millions of dollars in federal spending the project would need... an estimated $10 billion worth of homes, buildings and other structures lie in the Boise River flood plain. Water supply is a future concern for Idaho's farmers, but flooding is an every-year worry for anyone living along the river."
Water is never boring.

"in Just- spring when the world is mud- luscious the little lame balloonman whistles far and wee."―E. E. Cummings
By: Travis Stroh, Technical Sales
At SRS Crisafulli we get calls from duck hunters and duck clubs throughout the United States. We are a proud sponsor of Ducks Unlimited. We are fans of Duck Dynasty and many of us here at SRS Crisafulli have hunting in our blood.
So we decided to make a Camo pump.
And when we decide to make something, we just make it.
Many people love the use of the SRS Crisafulli Trailer Pump to flood fields and create habitat for waterfowl.
And while we're in the Happy, Happy, Happy frame of mind - similar to our friends from the Duck Dynasty in the South - we set up a scout here in the North.
And then we gave our Scout, Sammy, another Scout, Darlene.
And, between the efforts of Darlene and Sammy, they found Santa:
We close this blog with a few extra notes and links:
Pikes Hunting Club in Illinois was an early adapter of the Crisafulli Trailer Pump for flooding waterfowl habitat.
Mississippi State University publishes a Waterfowl Habitat Management Handbook, with extensive discussion of levee construction, water control structures, and plant and animal management.
U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service, Waterfowl Population Status 2013
For further discovery, we recommend Ducks Unlimited, Wetlands & Grassland Habitat, the benefits of two key waterfowl habitat types.
Happy Hunting. Happy Holidays.

For those of you who are following the Harlem Sludge Removal project, after several rain delays, the job is finally scheduled to proceed. The job is setting up this weekend, (July 20th) and will run approximately 2 weeks. The assignment is to dredge municipal sludge into a Geotube on site for dewatering into at least 75 dry ton of cake.
As reported here earlier, our electric remote controlled dredge - The Flump - will be used in conjunction with Tencate Geotubes and WaterSolve's flocculants to decant and dewater 35 years of sludge from this small Wastewater Treatment Plant three lagoon system.
The training associated with this installation - 2013 Sludge Removal for Small System Wastewater Operators Workshop - was presented by Wastewater Technician Dan Kramer, Randy Wilcox of WaterSolve, and Alan Juncker of Tencate on June 6th. SRS Crisafulli's Chad Schipman gave a presentation on this history of the Crisafulli sludge removal systems product line.
Randy Wilcox, PE, Technical Sales Manager, WaterSolve, demonstrating the power of flocculants.
Alan Juncker, Geotube Market Manager, TenCate, offering a finished cake of sludge.
The graduating class: Montana Rural Water Association offered Continuing Education for participants in this half day demonstration and training at the Harlem City Hall.
Harlem Montana is on the high-line of Montana's Rte 2. The Amtrak train stops on either side of Harlem - in both Havre and Malta. If you'd like to visit the jobsite by train, we will meet you. You'll be 4 hours east of Glacier National Park - another stop on the Amtrak line. Pack your bag for a summer hike, and you have yourself a holiday.

What should you do when your town is under multiple and ongoing consent orders for violations of its Montana Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (MPDES) wastewater discharge permit?
Excessive lagoon sludge accumulation contributes to the poor performance of any treatment system, particularly in winter. Removing sludge from the lagoon cells will improve treatment at the facility and help to address some of the violations in the Department of Environmental Quality (DEQ) enforcement action.
The City of Harlem, Montana has a wastewater treatment system consisting of a three cell partially mixed aerated lagoon system constructed in 1985. The lagoon system discharges to the Milk River under wastewater discharge permit MT0021270. The sludge removal project is the initial step in a comprehensive facility upgrade for the City of Harlem.

Stahly Engineering & Associates, Bozeman, MT and City of Harlem staff conducted a lagoon survey in December 2009. Each cell was sampled in multiple locations using a sludge judge probe assembly operated from a small boat. Solids volumes were calculated using the lagoon bottom area multiplied by the sludge depth. A volume allowance was added for solids accumulated along the sloped sides. The aerated ponds contain significant quantities of settled solids 1 to 2 percent in concentration and occupy between 27 and 58 percent of available volume.

Jim Bridges, a Geotube distributor doing business as Clearwater Dewatering, in Nampa, Idaho, brought together a number of parties to collaborate on the City of Harlem's Sludge Removal Project and turn it into a training opportunity.
WaterSolve, LLC, a national leader in dewatering operations located in Caledonia, Michigan, and a master distributor of TenCate GeoTube® products bid the project. The project is financed by a grant from the Renewable Resource Grant and Loan (RRGL) program of Montana's Department of Natural Resources.
A subcontractor to WaterSolve, SRS Crisafulli, Inc., Glendive, MT, a manufacturer of sludge removal dredge systems, will be providing the dredge, float line, and operator/trainers to this two week project, located 270 miles northwest of the Glendive factory, just the other side of the Charles M. Russell National Wildlife Refuge.
Montana Rural Water System's Dan Kramer has qualified a training program, Sludge Removal for Small System Wastewater Operators Workshop, as a Continuing Education Credit (.35 CEC's)for Montana Certified Operators, approved by the Montana DEQ. He is offering training at the jobsite with presentations at City Hall. The training will be offered on Thursday, June 6th, 2013. Training is geared towards small and medium sized wastewater systems. The training will provide information about the importance of the Notice of Intent, daily monitoring of equipment calibration and operation, a discussion of sludge removal, and the on-site demonstration of the working sludge removal system.

Presentations at this one-day seminar will be conducted by Dan Kramer, Wastewater Technician, and Randy Wilcox, P.E., Technical Sales Manager of WaterSolve. Representative Alan Junker from Tencate, and Ryan Rittall of Stahly Engineering will participate in a roundtable discussion. This program is open to all wastewater operators and is eligible for 0.35 CEC's. The seminar will cover the problems facing many wastewater treatment lagoon facilities.
This specific project involves the removing of approximately 75 tons (dry weight basis) of lagoon solids from up to three treatment lagoons and pumping to a gravity dewatering system consisting of polymer addition and gravity dewatering bags. All systems are designed by the contractor and all dewatering bags will be left on site.
If you are interested in attending, please contact Dan Kramer at firstname.lastname@example.com.
We look forward to see you in Harlem!
In an article written by Jeff Kolpack of Inforum, the Forum of Fargo and Moorhead, SRS Crisafulli makes news for helping the Fargo Park District plan for quick removal of anticipated flood waters at the Edgewood Golf Course, an 18-hole, par 71 Championship course beautifully located along the Red River - the very same Red River that is likely to jump it's banks.
"Enlisting the help of a small army… to fight a flood. A very small three-piece army known as Crisafulli water pumps."
Over a year ago, the Fargo Park District made an investment in three Crisafulli trailer pumps to empty a basin of their golf course which floods when the Red River reaches the 30 foot flood stage. Rather than waiting for the water to drain naturally, the District made the decision to purchase three Crisafulli water pumps. What they didn't expect was how effective the pumps would be. If the course can open weeks ahead of schedule, golfers can hit the course sooner, enabling the District to realize a sooner than expected return on investment.

After a year of close collaboration with the customer, SRS Crisafulli's versatile resources in both engineering and manufacturing resulted in shipment of a Rotomite SD-110 shallow draft dredge to Maynilad Water Service in the Philippines.
Three Philippine firms played key roles to close the deal – i.e., Maynilad Water Services, a private water and wastewater provider for the 17 cities and municipalities that comprise the West Zone of the greater Metro Manila area, WaterKonsult Equipment and Service, Inc., a leading equipment and service supplier serving Maynilad and many other Philippine water utilities and water districts, and SRS Crisafulli's authorized Factory Representative, Ramoncito "Chito" Manaois, of RFM Machinery & Equipment Corp. of Manila, Philippines.
In February of 2012, Waterkonsult contacted SRS Crisafulli through SRS Crisafulli's website.
Maynilad Water Service needed to remove sediment at its La Mesa Treatment Plant 1. The sediment-bearing water comes from the Angat Dam and travels more than 30 kilometers to the plant. The river also carries silt to the treatment plant where sludge is collected at the bottom of sedimentation basins. To achieve acceptable, sustained settled water quality and to comply with environmental regulations, La Mesa Treatment Plant 1 must clean its sedimentation basins twice a year. Cleaning the basins twice a year will preserve basin capacity and water quality.
Waterkonsult learned of Maynilad's bid offering and contacted SRS Crisafulli. Waterkonsult, in association with Crisafulli's Philippine sales representative, asked SRS Crisafulli for detailed product specifications for the Rotomite SD-110 dredge, and what makes the Rotomite SD-110 a superior dredge.
Over the next several months, personnel from Crisafulli, Ramoncito, and Waterkonsult collaborated with Maynilad, answering requests for more information on the Rotomite SD-110. After satisfactorily answering all the requests, the Rotomite SD-110 dredge was selected. The winning SD-110 package offers a high-performing dredge pump able to move 1500 gpm at 80ft TDH in water. The cutterhead has a 90-inch by 15-inch opening for high sludge production. The hydraulic thruster enables the dredge to be driven like a boat.
On December 31, 2012, the Rotomite SD-110 left SRS Crisafulli's Factory headed for Manilia for delivery in February 2013. Pursuant to SRS Crisafulli's superior worldwide service, a SRS Crisafulli Factory-trained engineer will travel to Manila to support the installation and to commission the Rotomite SD-110 dredge.
Stay tuned…

What is coagulation and flocculation, and why does it matter?
Last week, SRS Crisafulli hosted a bucket demonstration of Tencate Geotube technology, presented by Gregg Lebster of WaterSolve, from Grand Rapids, Michigan, and Jim Bridges, of Clearwater Dewatering, from Nampa, Idaho.
These relationships were renewed last summer when SRS Crisafulli's Australian Dealers, Bill Kelly and Andrew Cochran, made a visit to the factory in Glendive. Over a few beers and dinner at the Lion's Club A-Frame in Makoshika Park, we discussed Dredging Solutions' successes using Geotubes to dredge and dewater sludge from wastewater treatment lagoons. Feeding the Geotubes with their Crisafulli Flump dredge system, Dredging Solutions has accomplished biosolids of >25%.
Bill Kelly explained the art of the Geotubes in his fine Aussie manner. In particular, Bill emphasized the science of chemical conditioning regimes to flocculate the sludge. We had homework to do - we're a mechanical engineering outfit, not chemical engineers.
Crisafulli dredge systems have been installed in over 30 wastewater treatment facilities, including most recently an award winning system at Natchez, Mississippi, as well as the Wastewater Treatment plants in places such as Lompoc Regional WWTP, California, the Douglas County Sewer in Zephyr Cove, Nevada, the City of Mandan, North Dakota, and the City of Bozeman, Montana.
The communitites of Glendive and West Glendive - here in rural Eastern Montana - have 90 acres currently in lagoons, and the communities are in the process of evaluating how to address the current and future wastewater needs.
You can't blame us for wondering if we could be of any assistance to local public works departments.
We turned to Rosa-lee Cooke, Water/Wastewater Instructor at the Mountain Empire Community College, Big Stone Gap, Virginia, who offers an online curriculum in Water and Wastewater Treatment Technology, and an Associate in Applied Science Degree with a Water/Wastewater Specialization for some background.
"In theory and at the chemical level, coagulation and flocculation is a three step process consisting of flash mixing, coagulation and flocculation. The primary purpose of the coagulation/flocculation process is the removal of turbidity from the water. Water with little or no turbidity will be clear."
"The end product of a well-regulated coagulation/flocculation process is water in which the majority of the turbidity has been collected into floc, which is clumps of bacteria and particulate impurities that have come together and formed a cluster."
Time for the bucket demonstration:
We hear from people in the field that many communitities are being encouraged to build mechanical plants; we also hear that mechanical plants are both labor and energy intensive, and that the passive, non-energy intensive lagoon system may yet have more useful lives.
To read more, please see Rosa-Lee Cooke's Lesson 4, Coagulation and Flocculation, Mountain Empire Community College.

Tuesday, October 2, 2012
Tencate Representative Ed Trainer will demonstrate how to use a Geotube as part of a dewatering and sludge separation system.
Gregg Lebster will discuss the art of polymers.
SLUDGE DEWATERINGEfficient removal of water in the liquid solids separation is key to overall use cost analysis. WaterSolve is keenly aware of the value and cost of producing solids to be removed from your site.
GEOTUBES®WaterSolve polymers offer excellent solids retention and high filtration efficiencies in dredging operations where the floc formation time is often limited and the time to specified cake dryness is critical.

Apple, developers wrestling over App Store pornographic content policy
Following its decision to allow bikini photo applications into the App Store, Apple has removed one such application from the App Store due to pornographic—in this case, illegal—content. The application BeautyMeter by German developers Braun Software has been on the store since January, but came under fire yesterday following the discovery that the developer was offering not only nude photos, but a nude photo of an underage girl. Similar to websites and apps such as Hot Or Not, BeautyMeter allowed users to upload pics of themselves for other people to judge. According to a report, one particular photo—which appeared to show full nudity—was labeled as being of a 15-year-old girl. After the report, Apple removed the application from the App Store.
Last week a separate application, Hottest Girls, was pulled from the App Store after adding topless photos of women to its available photo archive. At this point, it's unclear what Apple's exact intentions are in regards to such content and the App Store. Following the removal of Hottest Girls, Apple released a statement that said that the company "will not distribute applications that contain inappropriate content, such as pornography." However, Apple's App Store submission system provides checkboxes for such content on its content description page, including options for "Sexual Content or Nudity," "Prolonged Graphic or sadistic realistic violence," and "Graphic sexual content or nudity." In addition, the company recently expanded the Parental Controls available to iPhone and iPod touch users that allow parents to keep applications rated above a certain level from being installed or run on the device.

Apple really are going to have to make their policies on nudity and such a lot clearer than they currently are. Given the fact that Apple themselves are having tick boxes on the submission system for nudity and then pulling Apps which contain nudity makes little sense.

It's become cliche, but we really need to get rid of this stupidity in the US. It's perfectly OK to post a game whose object is to mutilate as many people as possible, but if a young person sees a breast they will be altered forever. Apple provided parental controls in OS 3.0 to put these decisions and responsibilities squarely where they belong: on the parents, and then decided to usurp that responsibility. Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Posted by Charles Starrett on July 2, 2009 at 1:44 PM (CDT)
Yeah, this is a stupid policy, particularly when applied to an app that just displays user-generated content.
It's ok to view it in Safari, because that just views the internet and we can't control that, but once that same web page is displayed in any other app, the app developer becomes responsible for it?
Posted by Charles Starrett on July 2, 2009 at 3:05 PM (CDT)
Perhaps it's not Apple who's confused about its policies, but just everyone else. There's nothing illogical about it allowing for nude pictures while also forbidding pornography. They're not necessarily the same thing.

I could have sworn in that episode he mentioned how many years he spent as an ensign, how many years he spent as a lieutenant, etc.
Come to think of it it might have been better if they had started out his career as an ensign.
They did.
The actual line was in
(not "Deja Q") when Data answered Lore's question on how to get a Starfleet uniform like his:
"If you get one the way I did, Lore, it will mean four years at the Academy, another three as ensign, ten or twelve on varied space duty in the lieutenant grades."
Because as Lt Cmd, you'd think that all the machine sentience issues would come up the first time he comes up for promotion, the first time he's given a leadership role, etc. There'd be debate about whether he should have been admitted to Starfleet, etc. By the time he's reached Lt Commander it's assumed he's already been accepted as sentient and trusted with leadership roles.
I think it was a case that there were those that challenged Starfleet's acceptance of Data as being sentient, even after more than a decade of service in Starfleet.

A working group is being created to define what a click is and isn't, for purposes of performance-based advertising.
Two ad industry groups are stepping up with several performance-based marketing providers to define how a "click" should be measured, and when it should be considered fraudulent.
The Interactive Advertising Bureau (IAB) and Media Rating Council (MRC) are jointly forming an industry-wide Click Measurement Working Group to create a set of Click Measurement Guidelines. They have already been joined by Google, Yahoo, Microsoft, Ask.com and LookSmart, and have extended an invitation to all IAB members.
The working group will attempt to establish a definition of a "click" as it is measured for purposes of performance-based marketing by search engines, ad networks, third-party ad servers, and others. The group will also outline a recommendation for a third-party auditing and certification plan that marketers would be able to employ to measure their own campaigns against.
The issue of invalid clicks, where advertisers are being billed for clicks that were unintentional or were purposeful click fraud, has been growing along with pay-per-click marketing. Click fraud issues have been most prominent in search marketing, with Yahoo and Google being targeted by several recent lawsuits, the last of which was settled last month.
While search engines have been working on their side to eliminate invalid clicks, it is also necessary for the issue to be addressed from the advertiser side by the industry, according to Shuman Ghosemajumder, business product manager for trust and safety at Google.
"We've been trying to tell advertisers more and show them more about invalid clicks. We also think there is more the industry as a whole can do to promote transparency on the issue, which is why we're participating in the Industry-wide Click Measurement Working Group," Ghosemajumder wrote on Google's Inside AdWords blog.
The guidelines are part of the broader Global Ad Impression Guidelines published in November 2004 by the IAB, MRC, and other industry groups. Earlier this year, the IAB published its Broadband Measurement Guidelines under the same program.
