Feed quality problems and management strategies
Feed is the single most important input in increasing aquaculture production and profits. Success or failure in augmenting yield with feeding depends, to a large extent, on the quality of the diet. Feed quality, generally perceived as the responsibility of the feed manufacturer, is affected by factors outside of the plant such as handling, storage, and use. Thus, the maintenance of feed quality becomes partly the responsibility of the farmer. Every fish farmer must be familiar with the nature and occurrence of major feed quality problems and able to prevent and control them. This paper is based on a farmer's viewpoint. Valuable insights are provided for the feed manufacturer
Stellar Equilibrium in 2+1 Dimensions
The hydrostatic equilibrium of a dimensional perfect fluid star in
asymptotically anti-de Sitter space is discussed. The interior geometry matches
the exterior black-hole solution. An upper mass limit is found, analogous
to Buchdahl's theorem in 3+1, and the possibility of collapse is discussed. The
case of a uniform matter density is solved exactly and a new interior solution
is presented.Comment: 11 pages, revtex, no figure
The Dirichlet Problem for Curvature Equations in Riemannian Manifolds
We prove the existence of classical solutions to the Dirichlet problem for a
class of fully nonlinear elliptic equations of curvature type on Riemannian
manifolds. We also derive new second derivative boundary estimates which allows
us to extend some of the existence theorems of Caffarelli, Nirenberg and Spruck
[4] and Ivochkina, Trundinger and Lin [19] to more general curvature functions
and less convex domains.Comment: 32 pages, no figures. Final version. Paper accepted to publication in

Multilingual Information Framework for Handling textual data in Digital Media
This document presents MLIF (Multi Lingual Information Framework), a high-level model for describing multilingual data across a wide range of possible applications in the translation/localization process within several multimedia domains (e.g. broadcasting interactive programs within a multilingual community)
On the normalization of Killing vectors and energy conservation in two-dimensional gravity
We explicitly show that, in the context of a recently proposed 2D dilaton
gravity theory, energy conservation requires the ``natural'' Killing vector to
have, asymptotically, an unusual normalization. The Hawking temperature
is then calculated according to this prescription.Comment: 7 pages, Latex, no figure
