Centre for Incidental Activisms (CIA) #2
A choreographed collaboration between:
Maggie Flynn, Ame Henderson, Jp King, and Terrarea (Janis Demkiw, Emily Hogg, Olia Mishchenko)
With special projects by The M.A.D Poet (aka Melissa A. Dean) and Mark "Kurupt" Stoddart
6 January – 2 March 2014
Opening Reception: Wednesday February 5, 6 – 9 pm
Curated by Emelie Chhangur, Suzanne Carte, Michael Maranda, and Allyson Adley
Score making, seam clashing, position and movement: welcome to the second edition of the Centre For Incidental Activisms (CIA #2). While the focus of this series has evolved, the basic premise of what this ongoing project aims to do — and undo — remains similar. Both CIAs set out to performatively examine a question at stake in contemporary artistic and curatorial practice. In winter 2011, instead of creating an exhibition about politically engaged and activist practices, the CIA inaugurated a "centre" through which to enact politics and embrace activism as a transformative practice. Similarly, in 2014, CIA #2 continues to encourage disagreement, incoherence, uncertainty, and unpredictable offshoots, this time through a series of improvised situations that set in motion relations between people, ideas, and spaces where the brokering of different viewpoints, perspectives, and forms of artistic production is a central part of the work undertaken.
This time it is the role of collaboration across disciplines, not activism within an institutional framework, that propels our inquiry — though the former certainly still has bearing on the latter. Here, we seek to engage in speculative imagination, to nurture collaborative aesthetics, to facilitate precarious relations, and to explore oblique topographies through hands-on, process-based artistic research across disciplines and geographies: from writing and poetry, to choreography and dance, to architecture and urban planning, to visual art and social practice, while bringing together members of the downtown Toronto art community and members of the Jane-Finch community. Here our performative inquiry is a political action where we collectively determine what this project might become over the course of its duration. Through the process we aspire to create some sort of shared terminology that opens up the potential for collaborative work in-between the disciplines and individuals we bring together. This project is more akin to the creation of a score than an exhibition.
Inherently experimental, the CIA is a public manifestation of our desire to position "in-reach" at the core of our institutional practice. By bringing new forms of expression and different cultural practices and protocols into the institution, our "in-reach" projects are designed to open up the institution, to follow paths into new territories with unexpected outcomes, and to transform the institution from within by allowing differing forms of cultural production to infiltrate the working methodologies of contemporary curatorial practice. At the AGYU, we called this "infrastructural activism." For this iteration of the CIA, we align our many activities into one form, everything from publishing, to exhibition making, education, and public programming: a shared terminology and self-organizing energy that draws inspiration from the multifarious activities and influences each artist brings to this project, activities and influences that we, in turn, bring into the gallery through our collaboration with them.
For the inaugural CIA, the only object we (the curators) introduced to the space was a large, custom-designed table, which we situated in the middle of the gallery. The table operated in both functional and metaphorical terms. It was an organizational device that acted as a site and a meeting place, and highlighted the questions the project itself sought to propose, such as: "who's sitting at the table; who's stepping up to the table." It also acted as a platform for different kinds of activities — from talks, to workshops, to dinners, to classes professors conducted in the space, to being a stage for spoken word events and performances — and, in the end, through Public Studio's intervention, the symbolic destruction of the idea of the "gallery" and the project's very concept itself by cutting the table into pieces and rearranging it throughout the space. So what to expect this time …
For CIA #2, we take over the entire space of AGYU, splitting it into three distinct spaces in order to bring them back together. To the first, we have brought a custom-designed ten-foot-diameter rotating table. Low to the ground, it grounds the space as one of interaction and exchange. The next space, dimly lit and sound-baffled, is defined by a matching eight-station, off-centre library carrel: the atmosphere is contemplative and retrospective. The final space, at first, is open-ended, containing nothing but potential (although it is filled soon enough).
Returning, then, to the first space: the rotating table will be hard to miss. Surrounding it, though, are various accoutrements of the project: an ephemeral print-shop for printing ephemera; an array of objects in various stages of posturing and posing; notice boards and notices, administrative or otherwise. Oh, and, on occasion, bodies. This is the active room, the space for workshopping, display, creation, play, and production. Here, scores are realized. Performances enacted. Ephemera concretized. In this space, all the various components drawn from a collective "bin of stuff" come in to play as a cacophony of the collaborative.
While first on the viewer's itinerary, this first space is not autonomous. The scores come from somewhere, the ephemera sourced from something. Step into the "open source" library, then, a contemplative space built for distribution, for reading, for meditation, reflection, and introspection. It's a public space for that which all too often only happens in private: a presentation of research-in-action. An attempt at making visible the invisible work that constitutes a practice.
The third space, as we've mentioned, starts empty. It's already full, though. Reserved for If We Ruled the World, it's gradually filled with the material created by Success Beyond Limits participants [see below]. Once the evidence of applied collaborative research is present, it also becomes t the raw material for further investigation into the urban spaces of Jane and Finch, both symbolic and real. Making a laboratory for re-envisioning the urban landscape.
All these spaces—the active, the contemplative, and the laboratory—allow people and things to unite and work together in real-time that is both synchronous and asynchronous. They are a forum for discussion and collaboration at various levels of engagement. They are platforms for the dissemination of issues and ideas that come out of the concept of communal authorship as articulated in the cycle of exhibition activisms/activisms of exhibition.
We hope that CIA #2 is another experimental learning opportunity for the artists and the AGYU. Entering into a collaborative situation without knowing how it will work (or not) means that we seek to perform what the project sets out to do: to create a space of negotiation, compromise, flux, and subversion – feeling our way through the project and letting it take us in new directions, establishing new relationships, and developing new working methodologies by testing what works and what doesn't. Experimenting this way is not intended as an isolated event with a determined beginning and end but rather a sustained engagement or ephemeral social activity with lasting impact. It is about learning through what these projects teach us so that we may put these less tangible things into practice, hoping that the CIA project changes the nature of our own practices and opens up the possibility for new kinds of collaboration in the future.
Maggie Flynn is an organizer, artist, and curator. Her understanding of critical pedagogy and community organizing has been shaped by her involvement with groups such as the Mining Injustice Solidarity Network, the Really Really Free Market, Centro de Intercambio y Solidaridad (El Salvador), and the Anarchist Free University. She is the Director of Whippersnapper Gallery.
Ame Henderson grew up on Vancouver Island and now lives in Toronto where she is Artistic Director of Public Recordings, an atelier for choreographic experimentation. Henderson holds an MFA from the Amsterdam School for the Arts, where her research focused on the political implications of the synchronous gesture and its potential as a collaboratively authored improvisatory practice of togetherness.
Jp King is an interdisciplinary artist, writer, and publisher. His collaborative and independent practice emphasizes garbage, material culture, contemporary mythology, masculinity, and primitive futures. Utilizing collage techniques, his obsessions with print and paper manifest in multiple forms, and his writing and images have been exhibited and published internationally. King operates the experimental publishing studio Paper Pusher.
Terrarea observe a manner of seeing and sharing that first arrived through an infinity box, and has since grown through friendship and chance. Terrarea prefer a variable and evolving approach—a responsive means of handling matter and coping with impulses. We learn together: Things look smaller from a distance, and multiply easily. Relationships are unfixed. Reflection is useful. Matter can get out of hand. Flexibility is key. Terrarea is Janis Demkiw, Emily Hogg, and Olia Mishchenko.
With this exhibition, we celebrate the 50th Anniversary of the Ontario Arts Council. We acknowledge the support of the Ontario Arts Council (OAC), an agency of the Government of Ontario, which last year funded 1,681 individual artists and 1,125 organizations in 216 communities across Ontario for a total of $52.8 million.

EXETER NEWS-LETTER
Firefighters knock down car fire threatening Exeter condo building
Special to Seacoastonline
EXETER — A sprinkler system helped keep a car fire from spreading to a condominium building earlier Sunday morning.
Exeter firefighters responded to a fire alarm at 7 Willey Creek Road, Building A, at 2:56 a.m., according to Fire Chief Eric Wilking. When crews arrived at the scene, they found a vehicle on fire in the parking garage under the building.
Sprinklers activated and kept the fire small, but Wilking said crews had to stretch a line to extinguish the burning vehicle. A first alarm was called until crews could determine the extent of the fire.
Residents of the four-story condo building were evacuated but were allowed to return to their units after about an hour. Fire crews remained on the scene until 6 a.m. to remove smoke and the smell of gasoline from the garage, stairways and hallways.

Wilking said no one was hurt and the cause of the fire is still under investigation.
"This fire certainly had the potential to spread, but the sprinkler system and quick work of our crews kept it at bay," said Wilking. "The incident is a good reminder about the effectiveness of a working sprinkler system."
Newmarket, North Hampton, and Durham assisted at the scene, while Kingston and East Kingston provided station coverage.

A Greek and Mediterranean specialty food importer, distributor, and manufacturer, Krinos Foods, will invest $20 million to develop its 100,000-square-foot national headquarters in the Bathgate Industrial Business Zone in the Bronx, New York.
New York City Economic Development Corporation selected Krinos to purchase the site from the city, located at 1734 Bathgate Avenue, for $3.5 million based on its response to a Request For Proposal. Krinos will invest an additional $17.3 million to construct its new headquarters, which is expected to open early 2014. The project will create approximately 32 construction jobs and add five new jobs to Krinois' existing workforce of 85 employees.
The Bathgate site will allow Krinos to remain in New York City. Once constructed, the new facility will have a more efficient layout, state-of-the art-equipment, and 36 foot high ceilings, nearly double the height of their existing Long Island City facility. It will allow Krinos to increase capacity and operational efficiency. Krinos also plans to seek NYCIDA assistance as part of its relocation.
"The commitment by Krinos to establish a new national headquarters and expand production in the Bronx is another vote of confidence in the future of the City's food manufacturing sub-sector and the larger industrial sector," said New York City Economic Development Corporation President Seth W. Pinsky. "Through tens of millions of dollars in private investment, this long vacant site will now be home to dozens of important jobs, stimulating economic activity and benefiting the Bronx for decades to come."
"In 1981 we invested in a then state-of-the-art facility in Long Island City that allowed the company to prosper for nearly 30 years. Now, through internal expansion and acquisitions we've outgrown that facility. We are thrilled to make this investment in New York City that will allow us to retain our trained and skilled employees, to continue to grow, and to efficiently serve our local, regional and national customers," said Eric Moscahlaidis, Krinos Foods President.
Investment in developing its industrial base to create jobs was prompted, in part, by a report by New York City economic development officials that said as offshoring costs increase, it is anticipated that industrial activities will continue to grow nationwide. New York City in particular offers unique location-based advantages for industrial activity, including a population of about 8.4 million, access to a large workforce and highly-skilled labor, and one of the nation's busiest ports based on import volume. The review also found that industrial businesses in the City are challenged by a lack of building stock appropriate for modern industrial uses, higher costs, and difficulty maneuvering City processes.


Hmm. You mean only one alleged terror cell was interested in mixing liquids in lip-balm to blow up "dozens" of airplanes across the Atlantic? Or that the entire London bomb scare is beginning to look less and less like anything close to a realistic danger and was hyped for political purposes? I guess we'll soon find out from the British courts. But count me as a remaining skeptic on what exactly that August 10 bomb threat really was.

In celebration of their 175th anniversary, Stanley Hand Tools has released this classic, limited edition pocket tape based on a 1933 design. It has a 10 foot long rule housed within a sturdy steel case with a polished chrome finish. The case side is embossed with the historic Stanley "Sweetheart" logo, the initials S.W. (for Stanley Works) within a heart-shaped outline. The tape ruler has a hook end, is 1/2 inch wide and has a non-glare finish. 1/16th graduations are on both edges of the tape.
At 2-1/8 inches in diameter x 7/8 inch thick, the round case nestles nicely into the palm and fingers, with your thumb resting comfortably into the concave center on the sides. This tape will fit neatly and smoothly in an apron pocket for in the shop use or in a pants pocket or purse for on the go measuring endeavors at the lumber yard, home center or hobby / craft / furniture store.
Around the house, we think this measuring tape is too handsome to be relegated to the dark recesses of a kitchen drawer and deserves to reside on a desk or dare we say even a coffee table! The round shape is quite fidget worthy and you may find manipulating it helps your concentration when designing your next woodworking project.
This tape is all analog. There's no App, no Bluetooth, no batteries and even no locking mechanism, but it is full of straightforward handsome utility. It makes a great gift for any woodworker, maker, or project loving homeowner, especially one that appreciates Americana retro tools.
We're in agreement with Chris Schwarz about this little tape to get one when you can, since it's not clear how long it will be available.

Q: What is the process for identifying a 20 year flood zone? I am currently working on an assignment where I need to model flood risk areas. Firstly I was asked to identify potential flood risk zones based on the following criteria:

*

*identify areas that I would consider to have steep slopes. I think I have completed this task. I used the Slope tool here.

*Identify a 20 year flood zone and base this on an estimated distance from rivers. Then repeat the task for a 100 year flood return. A guide value would be not to go beyond 2 kilometers for the 100 year and less for the 20 year. I have no idea how to even start this. I have googled different things have come up with extensions that can be used but we never went over any such extensions in the college practicals.

A: I would typically not base a flood zone on distance from the river, but instead on elevation (a very steep hill right next to a river is very low flood risk, for example). However, if you don't have elevation data, I guess distance can be a reasonable estimate.
Measuring distance from a river can be accomplished with the Buffer tool. Create a buffer of the size you think valid for a 20 year flood distance, and for a 100 year flood distance. (What that distance might be, I'd hesitate to even guess!)

South Korea to Buy 12 Lockheed Martin MH-60R Helicopters
South Korea has chosen the MH-60R Seahawk manufactured by Lockheed Martin affiliate Sikorsky as its next-generation helicopter for ROK Navy operations, it was announced today.
The Defence Acquisition Programme Administration (DAPA) held a meeting presided over by Defence Minister Suh Wook and approved a plan to introduce 12 Sikorsky MH-60R units by 2025 at the cost of 960 billion won. The arms procurement agency plans to sign a contract with the US firm within this year, a Yonhap report said.
Operational and deployed today with the US Navy as the primary anti-submarine warfare anti-surface weapon system for open ocean and littoral zones, the MH-60 Romeo is the world's most advanced maritime helicopter.
More than 300 MH-60 Romeo multi-role maritime helicopters are in service worldwide. Besides the US Navy they are also in service with the Royal Australian Navy, Royal Danish Navy and Royal Saudi Naval Force.
At the Dec 15 meeting, DAPA was also reported to have decided to suspend the project of enhancing the Army's CH-47 helicopters after taking timing, functionality and cost into account. The agency added that it will swiftly push for a follow-up project to mitigate the suspension's impact on military capabilities. –shp/iz/mgm (Photo: Lockheed Martin)

The purpose of our research is to understand the mechanisms of disease and to improve treatment and prevention of hepatitis B virus (HBV) and hepatitis C virus (HCV) infections, and viral hepatitis-associated hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).
Infection with hepatitis B and C viruses affects more than 10 percent of the world population and is the most common etiology of chronic liver disease and hepatocellular carcinoma, which is the fourth leading cause of death from cancer in the world. Current therapies for both viruses are less than optimal. While an effective vaccine for HBV is available, the prospect for a HCV vaccine remains elusive. Given the magnitude and severity of both viral infections as a global public health problem, it is imperative to develop and implement effective prophylactic vaccines and better therapeutic regimens. To achieve this goal, we must understand at the molecular, cellular and genetic levels the viral life cycle, viral mechanisms for productive and persistent infection, virus-host interactions, and host immune responses. The thematic effort of my laboratory focuses on these topics.
While many gaps in our knowledge of HCV exist, great strides have been made in characterizing the virus and functions of viral genes as well as in unraveling the replication pathway and immunologic mechanisms of liver injury. HCV, like many other viruses, exploit host cellular machinery for productive infection. However, unlike other RNA viruses, HCV has a high propensity to cause persistent infection despite an active host immune response. Thus, it possesses unique mechanisms to counteract the various host defenses. HCV gene products have been shown to interact with many host factors and to induce cellular alterations vital for viral replication, persistence and pathogenesis. Earlier progress in HCV research has been hampered by a lack of robust infectious and replicating cell culture systems and convenient small animal models. The development of in vitro systems including infectious cell cultures affords the opportunity to fully characterize viral replication and virus-cell interactions. By applying the technology of induced pluripotent stem cells and hepatocyte differentiation, we have established useful cell model systems to study viral replication and virus-cell interaction. SCID/uPA mice transplanted with human hepatocytes susceptible to HCV infection and transgenic mouse models have been useful as small animal models. We have taken three approaches to study HCV infection and pathogenesis.
To understand the mechanisms of action of interferon, ribavirin, and the new class of direct-acting antivirals in HCV therapy, and to explore the biological basis of treatment non-response in order to improve current treatment regimen.
To apply molecular, biochemical and functional genomic tools to identify and characterize structural and functional interactions among the virus, viral gene products, cellular pathways and the host.
To generate novel reagents and tools for developing and evaluating vaccines and antivirals by building and improving on currently available model systems.
For HBV, the replication and virus-host interactions have been studied in great detail and many of the pathways have been elucidated. The availability of culture systems and small animal models has greatly facilitated the elucidation of fundamental knowledge of the virus and the evaluation of vaccine and therapeutic candidates. While the various virological functions in replication are well-known, the roles of interacting cellular factors remain largely undefined. In addition, the viral and host functions for productive and persistent infection in vivo are poorly understood. Among the viral gene products, the accessory proteins HBeAg and HBX are not essential for replication in vitro but appear to be important for viral infection in vivo. The HBX has multifarious effects and appears to function through several pathways including signal transduction, transcriptional activation/DNA repair, and/or cellular proteolysis. These mechanisms may not be mutually exclusive and can be concurrently operative in contributing to the pleiotropic effect of HBX. Despite the uncertainty about the mechanism of HBX functions, it has been generally accepted that this gene product is required for the establishment of HBV infection in vivo. We have been focusing on understanding the functions of HBX and developing therapeutic strategy targeting at this important viral function. We have established various infectious HBV cell culture systems that are suitable to study HBV infection, spread, virus-cell interaction and antiviral testing. We are also applying a similar overall approach in functional genomics and genome-wide screens described above for HCV to studying HBV-host interactions.
Finally, we have established an active research program on the increasingly important problem of hepatocellular carcinoma in the context of chronic viral hepatitis. We are developing various in vitro and in vivo models to identify and study potentially important procarcinogenic pathways that are triggered by HBV or HCV infection. By leveraging this knowledge, we hope to uncover novel strategies for preventive and therapeutic interventions of this deadly cancer.

Welcome to your Friday mailbag. Today, I'm discussing how to exit a put option we sold to open, how I determine limit prices and our Fluor (NYSE: FLR)protective put option.
As always, before I get to the questions, I like to use this weekly email to give a brief review of all the information that is readily available on our website — especially for our newcomers.
We have all our weekly updates, trade alerts and mailbag issues posted to the website in the archives section. It's a convenient way for you to access and read these on your own time or to look back at past updates. Click here to view them now.
We also have a video library designed to help you learn more about options with our Intro to Options and Income Accelerator videos. There you can find a tutorial on put selling, a tutorial on placing a covered call, a webinar where I answer a few frequent questions and a welcome video. This content can help you get on the right track if you're new to the Pure Income strategy.
We have also added our Getting Started series to the website. This is the first content you should have received after you signed up for Pure Income, and it offers a great primer on our service and the strategy.
Did you know we can send a brief text message to your cellphone anytime I send a Pure Income trade alert? Just click here to sign up.
And you can always view our open and closed positions online through our ePortfolio.
That's a wealth of resources right at your fingertips, and I'll continue to build out this content as I take your feedback and put it to work.
I'm a little confused about exiting a put and want to make sure I don't mess up.
First, I traded the right stock option but the wrong date, and I ended up selling the Trinity (NYSE: TRN) October 20, 2017 $26 put at $0.92. It's currently trading at $0.025. I'd like to know what my exit strategy should be.
Thanks for the email, Bill. The October 20, 2017 put option is actually the same expiration I used — so you did everything correctly.
Now, there are two ways to exit. One is to let it expire on October 20. If the price of the stock is above our strike price, then it expires worthless. The trade simply disappears and leaves you with the money you intended to collect. If the stock is below our strike price, then you'll still keep the income you intended to collect, but now you get to own shares of the stock, too. That's one way to exit a put option you sold to open.
The other way is to pay to close it out. If you do that, it's based on the current price of the option. In this case, that's just $0.025. So you could pay $0.025 per share to close it out, but this is a trade in your account, so you'll have to pay whatever your broker charges to place a trade. If it expires worthless, which is the likely case, you don't have to pay any trading fees.
How do you determine what the limit price should be for a put option action order, since it will change from day to day and is affected to some degree by the price change of the underlying stock?
I understand why initiating the put option at a higher limit price than your stated limit price is beneficial, but I would like to understand how you determine where to put your stake in the dirt.
Thanks for the email, Paul. I use 3% of the strike price to set my limit price. That's my goal with every trade. Sometimes it'll be just below that, as it was with the Nike (NYSE: NKE) trade. But almost every time, it will be 3% or more of the strike price.
I have a concern regarding our Fluor put option.
On August 30, we received an alert from you regarding Fluor. I bought two contracts. Do we still have this position or not? Since September 6, [there's been] no more news about it. Verifying your portfolio, also no comments. Is it possible I didn't receive an email with the updated status? Are you still recommending this position, or not anymore?
Yes, we're still going to hang on to that protective put option. You haven't missed any updates. The protective put option is there for protection to the downside, and even though the stock has bounced higher, I still want to hold that protection since it lasts through January — giving us four months of insurance.
Ideally, the stock will keep climbing, and our insurance won't be necessary. That's what we want. But in the event the stock falters on an earnings or guidance announcement, I don't mind having the protection in place.
Thanks for all the questions and feedback you've sent in. You can reach me anytime at pureincome@banyanhill.com.


We planned to be in Spain for just over a week, giving Mary the chance to find out a bit about touring there and also to visit Chris in Sitges. It came as a surprise to discover the variety of experiences you can get in one small area in so short a time.
Our stay at the farm was punctuated by the sound of a distressed donkey braying. At first we thought it was a creaking gate followed by a strange creature sobbing in loud distress all amplified by some electronic wizardry. It took some time before we realised that it was a donkey and one that was too frustrated to bray politely. We were regularly startled by the honking, creaking, howling, sobbing noise that ripped the air and we would freeze before remembering what it was. On the last evening, Mary decided to return to the farming museum to choose an object to sketch. While she was in there, one of the staff invited her to come out to the yard where the animals are kept. It was here that she encountered Charlie the randy but unloved donkey. Charlie (not his real name – this has been changed to protect the innocent), was in a pen with two female donkeys, one of which he was desperately attracted to. Unfortunately, she was completely unimpressed by his charms and every time he attempted to mount her she grumbled loudly before lifting her back legs and giving him a thorough battering. At this point he let rip, sobbing and groaning, before preparing himself for another try. In the two days we were there he remained faithful to his task, howling and groaning every hour or so. They say that persistence pays off but not for poor Charlie who is probably still trying.
We set off in good time for our drive to Sitges having made absolutely certain that the satnavs were set to a longer but easier route around Barcelona. On every visit before this one we have been seduced into believing that the route through the city is shorter in miles and therefore preferable. It is a wicked lie. Shorter in miles possibly, yet it takes years off your life. Sitges is just south of Barcelona and it is our favourite place in Spain. Of course we are biased because Shirley's brother lives there but it is also a lovely, classy, friendly resort with lots of great places to sit and eat or drink and people watch. There are two possible places to stay in a motorhome near the town, if you don't want to use one of the campsites. One is an official aire and it is dire. It is sloping, messy, dirty and a very long way from town. We have yet to see anyone actually staying there for any longer than it takes to use the services – and they are grubby and unkempt. This state of affairs is a mystery to us as Sitges is as spick and span as can be. The second place to stay is a provisional aire much nearer the town and right next to the railway line. It has no services but it is flat and accessible and an altogether better option for a couple of nights in this fine town. After mid October you can also stay on the sea front but we were too early to take advantage of that option. We parked next to one another and discovered that the spaces are so small that we could very nearly step from one van right into the other. Fortunately we're all good pals.
It is about a mile along the sea front to the centre of Sitges and we walked up and down there several times on our three night visit, although sometimes we cheated and took the little tourist train that rumbles along the long prom several times a day.
Shirley and Chris – two peas in a pod.
It was Mary's birthday on the second day and she decided to spend it in Barcelona, discovering the fantastic architecture of Gaudi. From Sitges it is easy to take the train into the centre of Barcelona – it takes about 45 minutes and costs less than 4€ each way. Mary came back at the end of the day foot sore but inspired. We, on the other hand, wandered into town in the heat of the afternoon, resisted an ice cream, resisted a beer and walked back with a few random items from the Chinese Bazaar. In the evening we all walked back into town to properly celebrate Mary's birthday in Parrots Bar and Le Patio restaurant – more on that below.
Incognito is a delightful café bar where the food is served by Eric and Juan Carlos. Eric is one of the owners of the restaurant and a wonderfully charming Frenchman. Secretly I would have liked to take him home with us. When he brings the menu of the day he tells you about every item in his delicious French accent. He describes how it is cooked, the main ingredients and how it tastes. By the time he is finished we are in ecstacy and we haven't eaten a thing. Juan Carlos serves the food with great warmth and a little gentle humour, looking after you as though you are the only people in the restaurant, when in fact you need to reserve a table in advance because it is so popular. At the end, once they get to know you, they kiss you goodbye. Really – what could be more delightful? We met there for lunch with Chris and left several hours later full of good food and feeling fabulous.
Parrots Bar is a pub where all the outside tables are quickly filled with people watchers. Each evening we met Chris there to have a drink or three and join the locals in this time honoured activity. Several of his friends joined us and we chatted idly whilst enjoying the warmth of the evening. It is right in the middle of Sitges and we're told it is mentioned as a place not to miss in the Rough Guide. Sitting there as the sun goes down, it is easy to understand why so many people choose Sitges as their home once work no longer keeps them in the UK. Friendship and a feeling of belonging come more easily here than in many places we have visited.
Le Patio was our chosen place to celebrate Mary's birthday on our last night in Sitges. The four of us rolled up at 8 p.m. – that's the earliest time you can eat out in Spain – and enjoyed an exceptional experience of beautiful food, fabulous decor and outstanding service. We really can't recommend it highly enough for something a little special without being too outrageously expensive. It has a set menu with something for everyone. The courtyard tables are surrounded by gently lit palm trees that subtly change colour, giving it a fairytale atmosphere. We loved it.
Sitges is famous for being a gay friendly resort, although it has very much more to offer than that alone. Families, retirees, indeed all types and nationalities can be found there enjoying its delights. Personally I think that the gay friendly nature of Sitges is its strength. People are accepted warmly and being a little unusual is not a problem for anyone. We saw absolutely no rowdiness or unpleasant behaviour and we felt safe the whole time we were there, regardless of the time of day or night that we walked through its streets.
After three nights and two fun and sun filled days we bid Chris and Sitges a fond farewell and set off in the direction of the Pyrenees. We were having some trouble deciding which route to take – should we attempt the drive up to Andorra and then down to Toulouse? Other motorhomers had said it was a relatively easy drive but the image on the map showed some very bendy roads on the French side and, perhaps more worrying was the deluge of rainfall that was hitting the south east of France. Eventually we decided to cross the Pyrenees through the Somport tunnel, staying over at Jaca the night before and introducing Mary to the fantastic views just before the tunnel and the slightly less delightful downhill, twisting narrow roads once you are spat out into France at the other end of the five mile tunnel. On the way to Jaca we had two overnight stays. It was a holiday weekend in Spain, Friday being National Day, so our experience was slightly coloured by the fact that when Spain has a holiday almost everything closes.
Cervera, our first stop, turned out to be a place we couldn't make sense of at all. The aire for motorhomes is just off the main road next to the police station and Tourist Information. Free services, flat pitches and a number of picnic benches are provided and by evening it was very full. However – and it's a big however – the town itself was deserted and seemed to contain very little. We found the old university where it was obvious from the posters that it was a centre of political activity for the independence of Catalonia. We read an information board that explained that the building had been a concentration camp in Franco's time and we could hear a choir singing in the cloisters but we saw less than twenty people in the whole town square. It felt cold, being at least 10 degrees cooler than Sitges, and the atmosphere was faintly spooky. We could not understand what had brought all those motorhomes to the place as there was almost nothing to see or do. We returned to the vans, ate dinner courtesy of Mary and retired to bed for an early night and a quick exit the next day.
Jaca was a bit too far for one hop so we spent another night in an unusual place. Why stop at one when there are so many to be found? St Esteban is a tiny village in the foothills of the Pyrenees that provides a carefully constructed motorhome parking on three tiers, all built into a steep hill. Services were provided free yet the village itself is tiny and seems to offer very little to attract visitors. The only clue we could get to its popularity was a café with swimming pool where, in high season, you can pay a small amount to swim all day. Two things gave us cause for concern there – the first was a motorhomer on the tier above ours who almost reversed right off the ledge onto Mary's van. If it wasn't for his wife shouting at him to stop it could have been a disaster. The other was the onset of torrential rains that turned the ground to huge puddles. We went to bed hoping that the structure would hold as the rain poured down the hill side. Once again the next morning we left the place without delay.
After these two less than comfortable stays we were delighted to drive into Jaca in sunshine, park up in their very thoughtfully designed aire and wander the streets of the town. It's a lovely place with interesting shops, several restaurants and bars and, to our surprise, a castle where deer are kept.
We thought we would go out to eat that evening but discovered that no eateries opened until 8 pm and we were too hungry to wait. Smoked salmon and scrambled eggs with salad and fresh bread followed by Magnum ice creams were enjoyed in Mary's van and we pronounced the whole evening a grand success.
We were all tired by the time we arrived in the aire at Oloron St Marie the next morning and a bit frustrated because the navigator (moi?) had missed the turning to Intermarché where we'd intended to do our laundry. Eventually we loaded our unwashed clothes into Mary's van and, leaving our van with the dogs at the aire, we set off together to get ourselves some clean drawers. We have paid Oloron St Marie and its outdoor laundry several visits in the past but we have only just come to the conclusion that the tumble dryer is completely pants. We have been left with damp washing every single time we've been there – clearly we're slow learners. The upshot of our visit was two motorhomes full of damp washing á la Chinese laundry.
All windows and doors were open to facilitate drying and I volunteered to stay behind and keep an eye on both vans while Mary, Shirley and the dogs went for a walk into town. I was rewarded for sitting under a makeshift clothesline of damp knickers and t shirts with a beautifully presented box of strawberry tarts from the patisserie to share. Superbe!
Your Blog always makes me what to get my van out off storage and disappear into the wide blue yonder. Reminds me of our trip over the Pyrenees to follow the Camino back in May and June. A great read as always.
Another interesting and amusing account, thanks Margaret! Totally agree with the previous comment from David as you make me want to get Donovan out of hibernation (or whatever the equivalent is in summer months!) and join you. Guessing Moissac will be your next destination…also on my bucket list thanks to you guys. Keep safe and enjoy those French patisseries and boulangeries!!
Donovan is not having any new adventures this year (shame!) Would love to see more of the early Spring flowers and catch Spring migrating birds so maybe try mid Feb for a couple of months…probably begin and end France to check out the boat in Brittany. MUST do Moissac!!
Great blog as usual keep the wheels turning. I need to do the Somport tunnel but every year the weather seems to be against me. Happy travels.
Thanks Mike. We thought we were going to hit bad weather this time but it was glorious.
Just sent pic of donkey to my daughter – it's her strop face!

I spent three weeks this July volunteering at the Tel Shimron excavation in Israel. Like all excavations in this part of the world, Shimron saw occupation over thousands of years, going back from Islamic to Byzantine, Roman to Hellenstic, and Middle Bronze. Though my previous excavation experience has been in Islamic and Byzantine periods, I had the privilege this summer of working in the Middle Bronze Age period and growing in my knowledge and skills in excavating that period. Since this was the first summer of excavations at Shimron, one goal was to determine the extent of the Middle Bronze Age settlement there. I contributed to the success of this goal as our work showed that a sizable community was established at Shimron during the Middle Bronze Age. This is the period during which Abraham would have migrated to the area, so it was very exciting to connect a biblical event to the work we were doing. I am very grateful for the opportunity to excavate at Tel Shimron. While there, I grew in my skills as an archaeologist. During my time in Israel, I took a class on Field Archaeology, and for my final project was able to research and write about the transition between the Byzantine and Islamic periods and suggest how Shimron may fit into the academic understanding of this crucial time in history. It was beneficial for me to meet many archaeological scholars of the Holy Land, to learn from their experience and to understand what it means to pursue this field. It was truly a privilege to contribute to the first season at Tel Shimron and I am very thankful for the role The Philos Project played in allowing that to happen.

For an individual who is elderly, it can be quite difficult to enjoy a bath all on his own. Due to the lack of mobility or enhancing age, it is physically impossible for many elders to take a bath without the assistance of any other individual. Fortunately, modern technology had led to the invention of products known as bath lift chairs for the elderly. These are regarded as medical equipment for the elderly and the handicapped and can help any individual bath well despite advanced age. Read on to know about 4 of the best chairs for the elderly people that you can easily choose from.
This comfy chair is for those with limited range of motion. It is ideal for elderly adults as well as for very young children.

To start to grow a coconut plant, begin with a fresh coconut that still has the husk on it. When you shake it, it still should sound like it has water in it. Soak it in water for 2-3 days.
After the coconut has been soaked, place it in a container filled with well-draining potting soil. It is best to mix in a little sand or vermiculite to make sure the soil you will be growing coconut trees in drains well. The container needs to be around 12 inches deep to allow for the roots to grow properly. Plant the coconut point side down and leave a 1/3 of the coconut above the soil.
After planting the coconut, move the container to a well lit, warm spot. The warmer the better. Coconuts do best in spots that are 70 degrees F. (21 C.) or warmer.
The trick to growing a coconut palm tree is to keep the coconut well watered during germination without letting it sit in overly wet soil. So, water the coconut frequently but make sure the container drains very well.
You should see the seedling appear in 3-6 months.
If you want to plant a coconut that has already sprouted, go ahead and plant it in well-draining soil so that the bottom 2/3 of the coconut is in the soil. Place in a warm area and water frequently.
Once your coconut tree has started growing, you need to do a few things to help keep it healthy.
First, water the coconut tree frequently. As long as the soil drains well, you really can't water them too often. If you decide to repot your coconut tree, remember to add sand or vermiculite to the new soil to keep the water draining well.
Second, growing coconut palms are heavy feeders. They will need regular and complete fertilizer. Look for a fertilizer that provides both the basic nutrients plus trace nutrients like boron, manganese and magnesium.
Third, coconut palms are very cold sensitive. If you live in an area that gets cold, your coconut plant will need to come inside for the winter. Provide supplemental light and keep it away from drafts. In the summer, grow it outdoors and make sure you place it in a very sunny and warm spot.
Coconut trees that are grown in containers tend to be short lived. They may only live for 5-6 years. But, even though they are short lived, growing coconut trees can be a fun project.


Do you also experience the µTorrent cannot be uninstalled successfully from the PC? Totally remove µTorrent may need more deleting steps or a better way to get rid of it. So now, let's start to figure it out and get the most effective removal way.
µTorrent is an application that provides the torrent downloading service for the user. Upon installation, it will not only create its configurations and data on the computer, some bundles like browser extensions and lightweight programs also come with the program installation. And after installing µTorrent, you will find that this app will display annoying advertisements on the web browser, which will only be disabled when you pay for the upgrade version.
What are common problems to uninstall µTorrent?
As everybody knows that Windows system provides a removing feature, which allows people to remove the program they don't want to use anymore. So it is for sure we can choose to remove µTorrent in this way. However, there is a point you should notice that, Windows built-in uninstaller cannot achieve a complete removal of this program. You should take more steps additionally to clean out its preferences and traces from the computer.
Open the web browser, disable and delete µTorrent's browser extension.
When clean out all of files and preferences, you will be able to uninstall the program permanently from the computer. To remove its bundled apps, you should conduct the removing steps in the same way.
When one need to uninstall µTorrent, it is actually not suggested to take the manual way on Windows to perform the removal. The incomplete removal for the program is always a big trouble for people to get a 100% removal of this program. To handle the perform the app uninstall more effectively and completely, it is more recommended to take a professional uninstaller, which can conduct a thorough and systematic removal for the application.
Finally, click OK and exit the uninstall to finish the removal, and then you can restart the computer refresh the system.
If you don't want to uninstall µTorrent but wonder a way to avoid its ads, you can block the advertisements with this way on your web browser.


Home | For the Public | What Is Rehabilitation?
Veterinarians certified in animal rehabilitation provide leadership to a rehabilitative team that can consist of other veterinary professionals, such as physical therapists, technicians and rehabilitation therapists. They will work closely with your pet's primary care and specialty veterinarians. Your rehab-certified veterinarian can prescribe pain medications if needed and may offer therapies such as acupuncture and spinal manipulative therapy. They will also prescribe a treatment program including additional therapies (see Rehab Therapies) that is specifically designed to meet your pet's needs. This multimodal approach provides greater opportunity for a successful outcome.


Gene therapy catalyzed by a viral site-specific recombinase. Site-specific recombinases mediate precise, conservative recombination between two short DNA recognition target sites. During the last decade such systems have become widely used as a powerful tool in cell line and organism genome engineering and in gene therapy. The main research interest of our laboratory is to understand the mechanism of the site specific recombination system of bacteriophage HK022 and its application for gene manipulations and gene therapy in human cells.
We have cloned and expressed the integrase (Int) recombinase of phage HK022's in human cells and in plants, and found that when supplied with the requisite att site pairs, Int can catalyze the integration (attP x attB) and excision (attL x attR) reactions in these organisms. We found that our unique site-specific recombination system can utilize endogenous human attB sites that flank human mutations. Using the Recombinase-Mediated Casette Exchange (RMCE) technology we are currently investigating if the Int recombinase can cure some human hereditary syndromes.
We expect that our research will lead to the development of efficient and universal genome manipulation technology that will be useful for future gene therapy.

Triceratops to Call Melbourne Home After 67 Million Years
MELBOURNE, Dec 2: Melbourne Museum is preparing to welcome a remarkable addition to its world-leading display of natural history – a 67-million-year-old triceratops skeleton hailed as one of the most complete, and best preserved, dinosaur fossils ever unearthed.
Minister for Creative Industries Danny Pearson today announced the acquisition of the one-tonne fossil, which will go on display at Museums Victoria's flagship Carlton campus in 2021.
The gigantic skeleton dating to the late Cretaceous period was discovered on private land in Montana, USA in 2014 and is currently being extracted from rock at a depth of 1.5 metres. Some 270 bones, close to 90 per cent of the skeleton, have been recovered and excavation is continuing.
Featuring a full spine and a 99 percent complete skull, the fossil is one of the most significant dinosaur finds ever made.
Measuring six to seven metres from tip to tail and standing more than two metres tall, the fossil is larger than a full-grown African elephant.
Not only will the fossil be a major attraction for Victoria, it will be a boon for scientific research, helping to crack the code of how one of the world's best-loved dinosaurs lived.
The specimen was discovered by a fossil collector who spotted a pattern on a sandstone rockface looked like part of a dinosaur tail.
As part of the state collection at Museums Victoria, the triceratops will join other dinosaur fossils including 'The Cape Patterson Claw', a Theropod claw that was the first dinosaur bone found in Australia in 1903.
The fossil of the tri-horned herbivore will become part of a Museums Victoria collection of more than 17 million items that explore our history, celebrate our identity and form the basis of world-leading scientific research.

Mississippi Magic muddies waters of college football landscape
Four of top 6 teams go down; new polls due for major shakeup.
Kevin Lyttle
klyttle@statesman.com
Combine a whole bunch of Mississippi Mayhem with a magical day in Fort Worth and a crazy night in Eugene, and you have to go back 24 years to find as wild a week for college football's top powers.
For the first time since November 1990, four of the top six teams were beaten:
No. 2 Oregon saw its high-octane offense run out of gas on its home turf in a mystifying 31-24 loss to Arizona late Thursday.
No. 3 Alabama couldn't stop Ole Miss from rallying for two touchdowns in the fourth quarter to beat the Crimson Tide 23-17 for the first time in 11 tries.
No. 4 Oklahoma failed to dent TCU's defense in crunch time and Trevor Knight threw a late pick six in a 37-33 loss to the Horned Frogs. You think TCU at Baylor next Saturday is big?
No. 6 Texas A&M was absolutely used and abused by a beautifully balanced Mississippi State attack in a 48-31 cowbell-clanging of the Aggies.
What now? Sunday's new polls might look like this: 1. Florida State, 2. Auburn (didn't those two play a meaningful game in January?), 3. Baylor, 4. Notre Dame and 5. UCLA. Auburn should be No. 1. It is the most impressive, with blowouts of LSU and Arkansas and a win at Kansas State. FSU is the least worthy, beating up on hapless ACC teams.
Mississippi State and Ole Miss better be knocking on that door, and you could argue for either one in the top four, especially the Bulldogs, who have taken down two top-10 teams for the first time in school history.
Tick, tock: The College Football Playoff selection committee has a while to let this settle. First rankings come out Oct. 28.
Time machine: So what happened on Nov. 3, 1990, to rival this week? No. 1 Virginia lost to Georgia Tech 41-38. No. 3 Nebraska lost to Colorado 27-12. No. 4 Auburn lost to Florida 48-7. No. 5 Illinois lost to Iowa 54-28. Virginia, Nebraska and Illinois in the top five? Wow, that was a long time ago.
Magnolia pride: Has there ever been a greater day in the state of Mississippi, or a better start to a football season? Mississippi State and Ole Miss both are 5-0, and they'll easily be in the top 10. Pretty remarkable for a state with only 3 million people. What few realize is that Mississippi produces more top athletes per capita than perhaps any state.
Dak attack: Over the summer there was some talk about Mississippi State quarterback Dak Prescott being a fringe Heisman Trophy contender. Fringe no more. Prescott, a 3-star recruit from Haughton, La., outplayed A&M's Kenny Hill by a wide margin, averaging 10.4 yards per pass, throwing for two TDs and rushing for three TDs. Think Tim Tebow.
"He played today like he played all year: Like one of the best players in the country," Aggies coach Kevin Sumlin said.
Reality check: A&M's defense clearly is not title-worthy. It has been shredded for 1,043 yards, 574 on the ground, and 76 points over the last two weeks. But the Aggies are plenty explosive enough to be a real factor in the jumbled SEC West, and they'll have enormous opportunities the next two Saturdays: home to Ole Miss and at Alabama.
Devil's due: For sheer drama, Arizona State beat ′em all. Mike Bercovici's 46-yard Hail Mary heave to Jaelen Strong as the clock struck zero gave the Sun Devils a 38-34 win at USC. Four Trojan defenders were in the area. Bercovici, the backup QB, threw for 510 yards, five TDs and zero INTs.
Furious finish: Nebraska nearly topped what Arizona State did. The Cornhuskers trailed Michigan State 27-3 in the fourth quarter, only to come within a last-minute end-zone catch of winning the game. They fell 27-22.
Circle this one: Notre Dame at Florida State on Oct. 18 will have huge implications on the national playoff race.
Scratch one: A team and player no longer in consideration for a big bowl or the Heisman is BYU and Taysom Hill. The gritty QB broke his left leg late in the first half of the Cougars' 35-20 loss to Utah State late Friday. Without Hill, BYU (4-1) will be hard-pressed to get to 9-3.
