One such virus is the focus of this dissertation: Viral Hemorrhagic Septicemia virus (VHSV). This global pathogen has four major genogroups, I-IV, among which, our main focus, IVb emerged in the Laurentian Great Lakes in the early 2000s, killing >30 fish species in large outbreaks from 2005-2010.

  • Mindemoya Log - July, 2005
    Mindemoya Log - July, 2005 August 1 and we are anchored close to the beach hiding from the meltemi so it is a good day to write the log while the captain tears apart the engine in search of the black-smoke gremlin. The past month has been one of culture. At the beginning of July we sailed for Mykonos and arriving off the south coast enjoyed a lunch and a swim including cleaning of the waterline and propeller before heading for the “EU” marina. Such marinas are plentiful in Greece where the EU monies were used to build the structure but the matching Greek funds never added the utilities or bow mooring lines or management. We walked across the road for a cold drink and watched the filming of a segment of E Television Travelogue that is to air at 10 pm August 8. Maybe you’ll see us at the next table. The next day we were up early to catch a bus to town and a ferry to Delos where we tramped around the ruins for 5 hours learning about the most important archeological site in the Cyclades and the mythical birthplace of the twins Apollo and Artemis. In the 8th century BC a festival in honor of Apollo was established there and the oldest shrine remains are from that era. Delos was important politically and economically thus the many splendid homes of the wealthy. We enjoyed the striking mosaics which are still exquisite art works. The Sanctuary of Apollo contained the temples dedicated to him and the much-photographed Terrace of the Lions.

After our welcome meeting there is the opportunity to sample famous Greek cuisine before perhaps a stroll to the hill of the Areopagus (the Rock of Ares) for a breathtaking view of Athens by night. Day 2: Athens (B) Today we'll travel back in time to Ancient Greece with a walking tour of Athens. Feel the spark of Greek civilization as you stand beneath the Acropolis; explore the Agora or Marketplace, the beating heart of the ancient Athenian commercial empire; stroll through the Plaka where remnants of both an Ottoman and Venetian past are still in evidence and end the day at the Temple of Olympian Zeus, a structure that took three different dynasties and over 600 years to complete. Day 3: Athens – Santorini (B) (L) This morning we head to the port and board our ferry to Santorini, the southern most island of the Cyclades. Be sure to head to the top deck of the ferry as we approach the caldera (volcanic rim of the island) for some spectacular views.

  • Armenian Food Guide for Tourist
    ARMENIAN FOOD GUIDE FOR TOURIST YEREVAN 2001 PREPARED BY DR.ARMEN MEHRABYAN ARE YOU HUNGRY? Dukh sovats eq? In Armenia most relations eventually settle on a feast. Armenians eat often and well. They are very hospitable. When you visit an Armenian family, you must have dinner with them and then compliment the hostess for the delicious meal she has prepared. Every region is famous for certain dishes. The range of dishes and ingredients is huge. You can spend weeks without eating the same dish twice. Eating and being invited to dinner in a typical Armenian family are the most wonderful parts of a visit to Armenia. EATING LIKE A NATIVE helps you order many widely available Armenian dishes. There are literally thousands of dishes to try. Don’t miss out. Armenian cuisine is as ancient as the history of Armenia. It is a wonderful combination of different tastes and aromas. Armenian cuisine is almost wholly indigenous, although, as every cuisine, over time it has adopted several food ideas, cooking methods from different cultures. Closely related to Eastern cuisine, various spices, vegetables, fish and fowl and fruits combine to present a unique experience for any visitor. Armenians use different sorts of fresh and dried herbs, as well as a wide variety of spices. The adjustment and mixtures of flavors, dishes, spices and sweets adopt their variety according to the region they belong. Regional Foods. Most Armenian foods are available throughout the country, but there are some specialties of each region to search out during your visit. West Armenian food (Arevmtyan Hayastany utestner) is famous for its meza (appetizers), abour (soups), aghtzan (salads), meat, fish, fowl as well as meatless dishes (vegetarian), pilaf (noodles), hatz (bread) and anousheghen (dessert).
