Blaze strikes on fire anniversary
45
COINCIDING with the first anniversary of one of the worst fires in history on the Costa del Sol, another fire broke out in Benahavis. The smoke and flames could be seen from the areas of Selwo and Cancelada. The fire was brought under control but not before it destroyed six hectares of land. Last year’s fire, which broke out in Barranco Blanco, Coin, extended over municipal areas and destroyed more than 8,000 hectares, forcing 4,000 people out of their homes, injuring several and killing at least two.

One man has been charged with starting the fire. The Junta de Andalucia has invested â‚Ź1 million to clear and replant 537 hectares of trees in the area. A second phase, this time paid for by the central government, has now begun. Meanwhile, Equinatural, located in Barranco Blanco, helps abandoned horses. The location had to be changed last year due to the fire. Thanks to financial help and the offer of a UK racehorse trainer to make his stables available, they have been able to move to Finca Los Potros, also in Barranco Blanco.

Marbella is Arab playground MEMBERS of royal families from the Arab Emirates and Saudi Arabia have chosen Marbella to spend their leisure time. The heir to the Saudi throne Salman Bin Abdulaziz Al-Saud and his son made a quick visit to the city recently, as well as several other princes, princesses and heads of state. More are expected this month. Many of them have palaces in
Marbella, as well as luxurious yachts moored in Puerto Banus, and are probably the most awaited visitors of the year by the local boutiques, although they are reportedly not splashing out as ostentatiously as they did in the past. Meanwhile, it’s not only the royals who are welcomed to Marbella. Last year, the Costa del Sol Tourism Board designed the ‘Elite
Collection’ which aimed to promote the area as a luxury tourism destination in the US, Europe and Arab countries, and attract visitors with high spending power. It promotes hotels’ spas, medical centres, restaurants and events, mainly located in Marbella, at fairs and tourist events. It is reported that next year, the campaign will also be stepped up in India.

OUR out of 10 Britons who moved abroad last year were seeking a new love in their life. A determining factor of love being a priority for expat life is age, with more than half in the 30-39 bracket willing to consider emigrating in search of finding ‘The One’, according to a new survey. There are 35,375 Britons registered as resident in Spain between these ages. Men are also more romantic than women when searching for love, with more than 46 per cent of males willing to consider life abroad in the hope of exchanging ‘I dos’ in a foreign language, compared with 31 per cent of females.

The survey by Global Visas, a UK company that provides international visas, relocation and employment services, not surprisingly reveals that Britons aged 18-29 were the most unconcerned about moving overseas to find a partner. The main obstacle to emigrating for all ages, according to the survey, is leaving family and friends, with 25 per cent saying they would miss them too much to consider moving abroad.

A.B.J.H. had a European arrest warrant against him and was located by National Police when leaving a party in Marbella. He allegedly went into a bar in February 2011 when it was about to close and demanded to be served. The manager refused and was attacked by the detainee. The manager sustained a head wound. His son, who was working there as a DJ, and a woman who was in the bar at the time were also attacked. All three required stitches.
Road fatalities down THERE were 235 deaths on the roads of Spain this summer, the Interior Ministry reports. That is 10 per cent less than over the same period (July and August) last year. Such low figures have not been seen in Spain since the 1960s. The Ministry says this is good news, but that measures must continue to ensure the number of deaths on the roads drops even further.
Residents in the area called the firemen and Local Police reporting they could see a huge column of smoke near the golf club. The 300 metres of cuttings were alight and the blaze was reaching ‘worrying’ dimensions.
Firemen worked for hours to stop it from spreading. In the early hours, firemen had to return to the area when the cuttings re-ignited The Santana Golf Club could face several large fines.

Hunt is on for last ten No longer known as the Costa del Crime
“YOU may run to Spain, but you have nowhere to hide.” It may have once been dubbed the Costa del Crime, but not any more. That is the message sent to the last 10 UK fugitives on a list of most wanted men from a British crimefighting charity. Crimestoppers and the British Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA), are redoubling their efforts following the arrest of the
53rd target in the campaign which identifies individuals on the run in Spain from UK law enforcement agencies. With 53 of the 65 individuals included in the ‘Operation Captura’ campaigns since their launch in October 2006 now arrested, and two having been removed from the list, the hunt is on for the 10 remaining fugitives who include some of the UK's most dangerous individuals.
TEN TO GO: Contact Crimestoppers if you recognise any of these faces.
Many of those arrested are serving lengthy prison sentences for their crimes, which range from drug trafficking to sex crimes to murder. The latest arrest was that of Darren Kevin O’Flaherty, who was detained in North Wales whilst celebrating his birthday. The 39-year-old was wanted for kidnap and robbery offences.
O’Flaherty was also wanted over the 2010 murder of Dublin holidaymaker John O’Neill in Spain. Awareness of the last 10 fugitives is being highlighted across Spain in areas with a large British expatriate community. Roger Critchell, Director of Operations at Crimestoppers, said: “If you call us, no-one will ever know you who you are and
you will not go to court.” Calls to the Spanish telephone number 900 555 111 are answered in the UK by Crimestoppers’ call agents and a translation service is available upon request. People can also pass on information anonymously via the online Giving Information form on Crimestoppers’ website www.crimestoppers-uk.org.

Fine threat
Fewer foreigners on ‘padron’ register SOME 13,000 foreigners living in Spain illegally have been taken off the register of inhabitants of several towns in Malaga province. The law is that non-EU citizens who do not have the documents to live in Spain legally have to renew their registration on the ‘padron’ every two years. If they don’t the respective town halls are
obliged to take them off the register. In January 2013, the National Institute of Statistics had 294,423 foreigners registered as residents in the province, of which 61 per cent are EU-citizens. Now, the figure has dropped 4 per cent, meaning that towns will lose out when it comes to receiving money for the municipal coffers from central government.

As you would expect there is a top quality wine list. From the very drinkable house wines Almenaba, a tempranillo red, or Sauvignon Blanc white at €16.50 - to the top of the range Vega Sicilia Valbuena, a Ribera del Duero costing €140, all have been carefully selected to complement spicy food. There is a good selection of mid-priced wines and French Champagnes as well, starting with a Tattinger competitively priced at €59.
Head Chef Ravi Deulkar is proud of the nutritious food he serves. By selecting local seasonal produce and with careful preparation the food is delicious and healthy, he explains. That is because a lot of the traditional Indian cooking techniques the chefs use, from open flame charcoal cooking to the clay pot tandoor barbeque, require very little fat. That is good news for the heart and the waistline. And a range of innovative salads are on offer including the Chowka seafood salad (seafood served with chorizo, fennel bulb, red basil, exotic cress and a lime and chili dressing). The chicken tikka salad is perfect for anyone watching the calories. Grilled chicken, which is virtually fat-free, is served with corn, beetroot, rocket leaves, and baby spinach, served with a tamarind and ginger dressing.
Healthy and nutritious
CLASSY. That is the only word to describe Chowka. Oh, maybe a few more spring to mind: tasty, delicious, authentic, and innovative. From the moment customers walk through the doors it is obvious they are entering a world a cut above the standard Indian restaurant. Having been a chef in a high-class Indian restaurant myself (for 18 years) I could spot attention to detail straight away. That was started - as it should be - with the polite yet friendly welcome customers receive. Before even seeing the incredible décor - it is beautifully designed with genuine works of art adorning the impressive eatery - the senses are assailed with a wonderful aroma. Just like mother’s kitchen (that’s what Chowka means) the scents of oriental spices waft across the room and everything is spotless. If the evidence of the aroma is anything to go by then diners are in for a real treat. With Head Chef Ravi Deulkar in charge there is no chance of being disappointed. After his training in India he left Bombay to continue his culinary education in England. Ravi’s career has seen him at the Michelin-starred Rasoi, where he spent seven years. More recently he was Head Chef of Trishna (2 AA Rosette and recent Michelin star). It is that sort of experience that makes him a rising star in the world of modern Indian cuisine. He brings a touch of class to the food served at Chowka. As I had a chat with him in the extremely comfortable restaurant on Marbella’s Golden Mile it was impossible not to notice his genuine passion for food. He has a clear vision of the food he wants to serve in the restaurant. That means not concentrating on ‘standard’ fare served by so many Indian restaurants. He said: “There is so much delicious traditional food in India, I want to concentrate on that. I want to bring the diversity found in Indian kitchens to the restaurant.” He has a special affection for sea ingredients and uses local seasonal produce. That includes the most
Top wines
A classy taste from Mother’s kitchen... delicious garlic scallops and delicately spiced sardines. Other featured food was a tasty squid dish. Deep fried to perfection, the flesh was tender with a delicate rice flour coating and garnished with fresh chili and shallots. Pointing to it, he said: “That is a very traditional way to cook squid, but you do not see it on many menus.” I mentioned how I used to cook lamb’s liver and other more unusual dishes to order for customers. I felt it was a risk to put unusual items on the menu that may not sell. But Ravi disagreed: “I have put liver on the menu and it sells very well. People do like to try Indian food as it is eaten in India.” But perhaps star of the show was a huge king prawn, halved and stuffed with smaller prawns mixed with a garlic sauce. It was definitely something different. The restaurant has gone for a starters/tapas theme with the accent being on sharing dishes, either several to form a complete meal or just one or two as starters before ordering a dish from the Chowka menu. These again are unusual and varied. While most are rarely seen on a menu in the West they are all traditional Indian dishes.The fish curry - not too spicy but with wonderfully balanced flavours - was outstanding. Ravi said “That is cooked Hyderabadi style, very good.” Also featuring on the menu was baby leg of lamb cooked to perfection, and grilled seabass cooked with black pepper and dill. There were also chicken, prawn and lamb curries as well as vegetable dishes. Biryani rice dishes and tasty mini-nan breads added to the choice. Everything is cooked with great attention to detail. The balance of spices and herbs was spot on, though people who like hotter meals can ask the waiter’s advice.The dessert menu is not forgotten. Many Indian restaurants do not offer much in the way of puddings, but at Chowka, Ravi has a wide selection, including chocolate samosa, tandoori-glazed pineapple, Gajar Halwa (carrot cake served with ginger ice cream). Other specialities are a creamy rice pudding called Mango Kheer. Even the ice creams come in an assortment of Indian flavours including saffron and pistachio, rose, ginger and coconut. Fresh strawberries come flavoured with chili, cumin and lime, making an interesting combination along with the sweet vanilla ice cream served with them.

He claims she also told him that what he does is “unnatural” and that his problem was “all in his head” and “mainly due to his sexual orientation.” When he complained about the way she was treating him, she told him not to worry, because he

Mystery work of art hidden in plain view
A MARBELLA mystery is hiding in plain view on the exclusive Golden Mile. A piece of art is concealed in the heart of an old tree, which many may have passed without ever noticing it. It may look like a tree trunk left to rot away, but an observant passer-by would spot the mystery. Blending into the trunk, which stands on the Boulevard Principe Alfonso von Hohenloe in front of the Marbella Club Hotel, are beautifully sculpted figures of a fisherman and a mermaid. But not much is known about the work of art apart from the fact it was originally commissioned by Ramon Mesas Perez, owner of the La Pesquera restaurant chain. It was supposed to be the eyecatching centrepiece for a new establishment he was planning on the exact spot. The plans were cancelled, but not before the carving was finished. So the sculpture has stood on the spot ever since, a piece of rustic charm blending into the modern cityscape surrounding it.
BLENDING IN: Figures carved into an old tree trunk. But the name of the sculptor, said to be a former fisherman turned artist, has been lost in the mists of time. Marbella City Hall sources could only say there was a man who used to know, but he moved to Granada. The concierge at the Marbella Club Hotel said: “I am the only one who
seems to know it is there. No one seems interested in it.” But all he knew was that the statue has been there for at least seven years. Do you know who the sculptor was? Drop us a line at editorial@euroweeklynews.com if you have any more information.

A month’s money in taxes MALAGA residents pay €1,185 per year in taxes. This includes direct and indirect taxes like personal income tax, VAT, society taxes and tax on fuel, alcohol and tobacco. The average wage of a resident in Malaga is €1,157, meaning that more than a month’s worth of their salary goes on taxes alone. Most of it returns to the regional financing system via the Junta de Andalucia regional government’s coffers. Despite how high this may seem, the average for Spain is €3,461 per person per year. In Madrid, the average is €12,180 per year, and in Barcelona, €5,372 per year.

Mijas negotiates race meetings for next summer MIJAS racecourse will attempt to get back on the national horse racing circuit for next year. The town hall, which is the main shareholder of the company managing
the racecourse, will negotiate with the State Lottery and Betting department to hold official races once again. This summer, hardly any races had been arranged
in Mijas, and most were held instead at La Zarzuela Racecourse in Madrid, which is why the racecourse pulled out of the national circuit. As the local council
Woman is attacked on a trip to China A MALAGA businesswoman, 32, was injured in an attack at an airport in China. A local Spanish daily reports that she had been there on a business trip and was at the airport preparing to return to Spain when she was attacked by an unknown man with an axe or a sword. She lost part of a finger on her right hand

this month, but the final decision will be taken at the end of the year, and Mijas will only agree to remain on the circuit if races are booked for next summer.

Self-serve beer on tap THREE business associates in Granada have patented the world’s first beer vending machine. The idea came to one of them after being served warm beer at a music festival following a
15-minute wait in a queue. Their ‘Autobarman’ has barrels of beer which are kept cold and need to be changed once empty, something which they say would create another job. Meanwhile, they say, bars
would serve beers in less time with fewer queues, while staff can spend more time on other drinks which are more profitable. They say the hardest thing to get right has been the pressure and head on the beer, and that
they had to do months of research to check that such a vending machine hadn’t already been invented. They are mainly promoting it for trade fairs, sports matches and similar events, where there is normally only one very busy bar, and drinks have to be expensive because of the price of setting it up, so fewer people consume them. They insist it will not put anyone out of work. It is currently being tested at a company in Granada City and would be for indoor use only, to make sure no alcohol is sold to minors or consumed in the street. It can also serve nonalcoholic beer. Cards or tokens for the vending machine could be sold with ALL SMILES: A delighted Julie with Spectrum FM presenter Tim Smith. tickets, only to adults.

King lent Cristina and Iñaki €1.2m for house KING JUAN CARLOS of Spain lent his daughter, Princess Cristina, €1.2 million in 2004 to buy a house. This information is included in a tax report provided for the Noos case, which is looking into the bank accounts of Cristina and her husband, Iñaki Urdangarin. The €1.2 million was transferred from his personal account so that she could buy the house in Pedralbes, Barcelona, where she lives with her family. The transfer was registered with a notary and declared by Cristina to the tax office. The couple also took out a €6 million mortgage on the house. Urdangarin said back in February that they had failed to pay the last two quarterly instalments on it and
that €3.6 million still remained to be paid. The property is now for sale. Meanwhile, the tax office reports that the Noos Institute was a profitable organisation which mainly benefitted Urdangarin and his associate, Diego Torres, and that the Aizoon society, created to manage it, didn’t have a single employee. Aizoon belonged to both Cristina and Iñaki. Between 2003 and 2010, the Noos Institute had an income of €9.38 million. Urdangarin is charged for the alleged embezzlement of €6 million of public funds. He is allowed to travel and live abroad, but would have to return to Spain for a trial. Meanwhile, Palma Court has dropped the charges against his wife, the Infanta Cristina, who has moved to Switzerland with her children where she will reportedly spend €480,000 per year on schooling, rental of a house A NEW ‘Ladies Only’ Harmony Chorus and security. starting at La Cala de Mijas needs She will be working for La enthusiastic and dedicated singers who like Caixa Foundation on a salary to raise money for charity.

Gateway to America in Marbella
PLANTATIONS: Found inside three houses.
Magic result for Malaga police SIX Dutch citizens were arrested in Malaga province for growing cannabis and ‘magic mushrooms’ to sell in Holland. The plantations were in three houses in Coin, Mijas and Alhaurin el Grande, where police found 3,400
cannabis plants and 300 ‘mushrooms.’ They seized equipment used to grow the plants, cash and five vehicles. The detainees are four men and two women aged between 25 and 58. Amongst them is a couple,
their son and his wife. The heating, lighting and watering systems installed in each household reportedly cost €65,000. The investigation began when the owner of one property reported how high his tenants’ bills were.
Estepona smash and grab THREE people stole almost 50 mobile phones from a shop in Estepona. A witness saw three hooded people at around 4.30am outside The Phone House in Calle Real, a pedestrian street. They had crashed a red Seat Ibiza, stolen just hours earlier, into the shop front. The shop owner said that the goods, which were stolen in just minutes, are worth €15,000.
A NEW college is preparing to open its doors and give school leavers a gateway to the American university system. The American College Marbella, will prepare students for their potential studies at a string of US and Canadian colleges and universities with relevant course work counting towards their university studies. The idea is, according to the college’s president, William O’Brien, to give the students a closely focused education with lots of attention on individual students. The American College Marbella follows on from the outstanding success of its parent establishment in Dubai that has placed 3,000 students in American education establishments. They are confident of transferring that success to Marbella, and hopefully bring with it students from all round the world to use it as a staging post for an American education. O’Brien said: “It is a bridge to going to the US. The great thing about the American system is the flexibility it has. “Once students earn credits they own them and can take them to other universities where they will be recognised. “So our students can earn recognised credits here then transfer to the US. It makes it easier for them.” The college will open its doors for its first term on September 23. It is hoped once the only American university in southern Spain gets going it will boost the local economy by attracting students from abroad. That may explain the enthusiasm of Marbella City Hall for the college. O’Brien added: “The mayor, and the Delegate for Education Carmen Diaz, have been extremely helpful.”

Breeding hope for rare tapirs BIOPARC Fuengirola is hopeful that the Malaysian tapirs at the park will breed, thanks to the arrival of a new male. Breeding attempts have been under way since 2001, without success, but a six-year-old Malaysian tapir, called Pi, arrived from Nuremberg Zoo last month and has been introduced to the females, Esperanza and Dewi. The females are not related to any other tapir in Europe and have not yet been mated.
Esperanza, 13, was found in the jungle in Malaysia when she was a baby after her mother was hit by a car, and has been hand-reared. Dewi, 15, came from Singapore Zoo. Pi has already fathered young in Nuremberg. Before him, eight-yearold Banju lived with the two females at Bioparc Fuengirola but was found to be infertile. In Europe, there are 49 Malaysian tapir, in 19 zoos, of which only four have successfully bred in the past year.

Poverty is not just about income it’s about what is done with the money. Accommodation, nutrition and education should of course be priorities, rather then spending a fortune on fancy flat-screen TVs, designer pit bull dogs,
cigarettes and alcohol. And this is stellar advice relevant for every level of income. But going back to the ‘stale bread’ comment, learning how to cook can make a big difference to a budget and a person’s health. And cooking fresh food doesn’t have to be a challenge or terribly expensive with a little bit of know-how. So rather than stocking up on expensive convenience food and microwave dinners, maybe it’s an idea to invest in a good basic cookbook and a little bit of enthusiasm in the kitchen. And by the way, stale bread as it happens, is the best ingredient for toast, tasty soup croutons and of course here in Andalucía, the totally inexpensive and delicious salmorejo dish!

Loan deal to pay for new meters THE European Investment Bank (EIB) and the Spanish electric utility company Iberdrola have signed a loan contract for €200 million. The loan will support the modernisation of the electricity distribution network throughout Spain, improving its overall reliability and safety, they claim. The loan will co-finance a comprehensive investment programme designed to reinforce and modernise Iberdrola’s electricity distribution network. A large number of supply points in the full range of voltages operated by Iberdrola will be connected to the existing network. Furthermore, the programme will help pay for the installation of new digital electricity meters to meet Spanish legislation, which requires the deployment of digital meters for residential customers by 2018. The investment programme provides for the installation of up to 1.8 million new meters. The EIB has a long-standing relationship with Iberdrola, one of the largest power distribution companies in Spain, serving 10.7 million customers. The EIB has provided a total of €3.6 billion for projects in Spain since the beginning of the year, of which almost €1 billion is in the Spanish energy sector.

Leaving the country in search of work
ONO is to take on Europe
MORE and more of Spain’s young are leaving the country in search of work. The numbers of Spaniards under the age of 30 emigrating has gone up by 40.9 per cent since the economic crisis first hit Spain in 2008, according to the National Statistics Institute (INE). And the number of people in the 30 to 34 year age group has risen by 41.4 per cent. In total 14,084 of the 59,724 Spaniards who left the country in 2012 were aged between 20 and 34. But that figure is dwarfed by the numbers of non-Spaniards who moved away. In total 476,748 people left Spain. That is because many
SPANISH cable TV, phone and internet provider ONO will represent the country in the European business awards. It has been chosen to compete in the Millcom Award for Environmental and Corporate Sustainability category. It claims to have robust environmental policies based on saving energy and thus reducing CO2 emissions. The awards, held every two years, will be judged in April 2014. Despite the economic climate ONO is still growing. Sales were up 4.1 per cent in the first quarter of the year.
FORCED ABROAD: Looking for work. immigrants who moved here during good times have been unable to find jobs, and are deciding to move back to their home countries. Unemployment stands at 26.26 per cent with 55.13 per cent of under25s jobless. There are fears that a ‘brain drain’ effect might be taking place. A UGT trade union
report stated that more educated and well trained people are leaving. Top destination is Germany, which received 21,000 Spaniards in 2012. Other popular countries are the UK and France. In South America, Ecuador followed by Venezuela, Argentina, Colombia, Brazil and Peru are all popular.

Shoppers need to look out for more than the bargains WHILE with my family shopping in the Chinese shop on the road from Quesada to Benijofar, I was approached by five men of either Russian or East European origin. All were tall, in their 30s, and one asked for help reaching some goods. I then realised a man behind had opened my bag and removed my purse. Though aged 70, I gave chase and got it back, and other family members then gave chase as the would-be thieves made their escape in a silver Volkswagen Passat. I was not the only person in the shop to be robbed. The shop staff - although they had it on CCTV - did not even call the police. All shoppers should be aware. Olga Clifton, by email
No warning signs I READ with interest ‘Signs needed over crime threat’ (Letters Issue 1469). I was subjected to a major theft of my bag, losing passports, driver’s licence, credit cards, keys, and money while shopping in the Mercadona supermarket in the central commercial centre, La Marina, Finestrat. Only due to my insistence were the police called, and the shop did not even take my details, acting as though it was normal for thefts, though there were no warning signs in the area. John Cook, Benidorm
Time for action I AGREE with Allen Everington (Letters Issue 1469) that it is about time something was done about the misuse of parking bays for the disabled. The police should carry clamps in their cars and as they also patrol on foot, should also have nearby access to them so that any vehicle not displaying a ‘Disabled’ sticker is automatically clamped and the owner fined when they go to get the clamp removed. Once put into effect people would stop wrongly parking in these bays. At the Javea Arenal Beach car park about 10 days ago, a motor-cycle policeman stopped to check my blue badge when I was sitting in my car, but a van with hazard lights flashing being unloaded by an able-bodied man parked in two disabled spots was ignored.

Anti-Catholic?
www.euroweeklynews.com
Why is this? Also four days ago on the Javea Arenal service road, a motor-cycle policeman asked about my badge which was on my windscreen - just as I got back into my car. So I think Javea are now starting to really check on this. Let’s hope others will also follow suit. Mick Scarles, Javea, Alicante
Lack of service DAYS after reading ‘Passport help’ (Letters, Issue 1469) praising a company for acting professionally, I found myself visiting Puerto Banus, Marbella, on a shopping trip. While I expect to pay a higher price in such surrounds, it would be nice if good service came with the price... and it definitely did not at the port-side café where my wife and I sat to enjoy a drink and watch the world go by. Having ordered an American coffee and a coke, the waiter returned and did not even bother to pour the coke
I ALWAYS look forward to reading the EWN when on holiday in Spain; however, on many occasions I come away with the impression of an antiCatholic agenda from some contributors. One recent article amounted essentially to a pro-abortion rant, attacking Catholic teaching on this subject. In reality, the Catholic Church quite reasonably supports the scientific fact that a newly-conceived child in the womb is a unique individual with a unique DNA, which will be retained throughout its life (assuming it is lucky enough to escape the none too tender mercies of the abortionist, back street or high street). I come from Ireland, a country which until recently (although that is about to change, thanks to the abortion lobby and a campaigning/ biased media) disallowed abortion. Incidentally, the so-called Catholic ‘dark ages’ (a favourite cliché of the historically ignorant) were a period of unprecedented human achievement; Oxford and Cambridge Universities being two notable high points.
The rot set in in the 16th century, about the time of the Protestant Reformation! Eric Conway, La Mata, Torrevieja Editor’s note: The EWN is not anti-Catholic and the various views expressed and opinions published are not necessarily those of the publishers or staff.
Woeful Africa IT is said that the ruination of Africa is charity. I am inclined to agree. Explain to me the Save the Children campaigns of which there are many. Am I wrong in thinking they create more children who go on to create more children and so on? The problem gets worse as most of the areas that they live in can’t support their needs and they are in constant need of food aid so they become aid reliant, not unlike some areas of the UK. And to add to that we have to save their animals, too - lions, rhinos donkeys, etc - thus they become benefit reliant. The point of this message is who benefits most? The charity business, the monster behind all these good deeds. Still one good thing comes from all this, we will never run out of lookylooky men. C G, by email
Good hunting WITH reference to ‘Car concern’ (Letters Issue 1467) I know of people who have had their vehicle classifications changed in the log book by dealers. In the one case, this was done for a charge of €75, so check this out, and good hunting! Also, thanks a lot for a very good newspaper. Bob, Sedella, Malaga
Go on, complain! I WANT to comment on the ‘Stop complaining letter’ (Issue 1468). It is a pity Clive Graham gets annoyed when he hears people complaining about Spain. People have a right to complain not only about Spain but England also. I was advised to come here on health grounds. I also survived the Second World War and its aftermath and was in a Cromwell tank. If people want to complain let them do so, for believe me they have plenty to complain about. Hal Rockliffe Address withheld upon request

Watch out for unusual local laws PLAYING bingo, snacking while sitting on a monument or feeding pigeons may seem innocent enough activities to many British citizens. But these are just some of the reasons why some people have found themselves faced with hefty fines or in some cases arrested or detained abroad. Every year Britons are caught out by local laws and customs which might seem harmless in the UK, but may carry serious consequences abroad. Such incidents can be easily avoided by researching travel destinations in advance and taking note of updates and warnings issued by the Foreign and Commonwealth Office (FCO). A recent FCO report identified that more than a quarter (27 per cent) of cases requiring consular
assistance were for arrests or detentions, highlighting the value of familiarising oneself with local laws in order to steer clear of trouble. Charles Hay, FCO Director of Consular Services, said: “Consular staff often find that travellers are unaware that local laws apply to them and many British nationals think of their British passport as a ‘get out of jail free’ card. “While consular staff will always try to assist British nationals who find themselves in difficulty abroad, we can’t interfere in another country’s legal processes. “We want Britons to have a great time when they travel abroad so it is a good idea to research the country they are visiting before they travel. Country specific laws and customs can be found at www.gov.uk/foreigntravel-advice.”

It is against the law to wear a bikini, swimming trunks or to go bare-chested away from the beach-front area. Don’t carry or use drugs. While the Netherlands has a reputation for being tolerant on the use of so-called ‘soft drugs’, this exists only for designated areas. Possession of prohibited substances or buying them can carry a prison sentence. Feeding the pigeons is against the law. Chewing gum on the Mass Rapid Transit (MRT) system is strictly prohibited. It is illegal to import more than 200 cigarettes.

Democracy at work restoring the credibility of politicians

considers himself something of an atheist, but he is nevertheless a man born of pure Jewish stock. Therefore, to my mind his decision to vote against attacking a Muslim country, which is utterly anti-Jewish and would side with Iran in its quest to obliterate Israel at the drop of a turban, also gives quite a boost to his own credibility. It did get me thinking that if the leader of the Labour party had been a Muslim (which I’ve no doubt they will be one day!) and Israel had been suspected of committing some unacceptable act, would that person have reacted with such an unbiased opinion? Somehow I think not. Having said all that, despite this week’s decision to stay out, should Assad take it as a weakening attitude by the West and its allies, and therefore give him carte blanche to massacre and commit atrocities at will, I am fully in favour of another parliamentary vote on the situation. With that may come on him and his cohorts all the force and retribution of a reversed decision. Let’s hope it never comes to that. Keep the faith Love Leapy Website: leapylee.co.uk.

WELL, what a result! Firstly, of course, I was delighted to see the British House of Commons finally took Leapy’s advice and voted against interference in Syria’s problems. (Any time, fellas!) Secondly, the result was a wonderfull example of British democracy in full glorious flow. In most countries, particularly those of the Middle East, a result of this nature would have probably led to disgruntled losers rioting and spilling blood in the streets. Far from being an embarrassing rout for David Cameron, I think the dignified and immediate acceptance of a result he clearly hadn’t been looking for, showed a strong, highly democratic leader bending, without recrimination or derogatory reactions, to the will of Parliament’s EAPY EE elected members.

WATCH TOWER: Torre Calaburras.
L
a Cala de Mijas is part of Mijas located in the coastal area of the municipality. It sits between Fuengirola to the east, and Marbella to the west. In the 16th century, the area was an important location for the defence of the coast. Proof of this are the watch towers which still stand there, from which warning was given of the presence of enemy ships to the garrisons of Fuengirola, Benalmadena and Marbella. The towers are the Torre de Calahonda (16th century), Torre La Cala del Moral (16th century) and Torre Calaburras. With a population of more than 2,000 inhabitants, the town is dedicated to tourism, but also has municipal services such as health centres, schools, ‘Casa de la Cultura’ and library.

Lack of jobs - not spirit - to blame! Do you feel that many of the young who are out of work in Spain lack the true grit to get jobs, as indicated for their counterparts in a UK-based report?
F
INDING work for the young is a tough challenge in Spain, and though some jobless are not as hungry as they might be to find employment, the economic situation is making life very difficult for them, according to many expatriates. Meanwhile, a UK government minister has revealed that almost half of Britain’s jobless aged 1624 are not seeking work and are classed as economically inactive. Katherine Pate and Patricia Johnston, two retirees who now work as charity shop volunteers in Arroyo de la Miel on the Costa del Sol, feel that rather than showing true grit, the current working climate in Spain makes finding work a struggle for young people. “I think it’s very difficult for young people in Spain, according to what you hear in the news,” said Katherine. “A lot of the young ones don’t have any money and the parents don’t have any money. That’s why a lot of them go to England to find jobs.”
AMY REALEY: Students are graduating, yet struggling to find work. Patricia agrees. “I think young people find it very difficult to find jobs. I think the government could do a bit more to get them out working, even volunteering, anything to gain experience.” Amy Realey, a 20-year-old student nurse from the UK on holiday in Torrevieja on the Costa Blanca, says finding work is difficult for young people everywhere as there “is not much work out there, anywhere. Some friends have finished university
KATHERINE PATE and PATRICIA JOHNSTON: Young should have more help to gain experience.
STREET TALK but can’t get work within their degree subjects so work in bars, etc.” Amy’s mother Alison agrees: “I’m not sure what the situation is
KATIE FORREST: The economic crisis is the problem in Spain, not the attitude of the young. like with Spanish youngsters, but I wouldn’t want to be starting out again. People are studying hard yet having to take menial jobs.” Katie Forrest who lives on the Costa del Sol blames the economic crisis - not the lack of grit among youngsters - for high enemployment. “I think they’re trying to get work but there’s nothing. The crisis has hit Spain worse than anywhere else, shops are closing, people are taking things out of bins, and it’s awful.”
Matt Taylor, a roofer from the Scottish borders visiting his holiday home in Formentera del Segura in Costa Blanca believes young people in Spain are more likely to go out and find work. “Youngsters here are different, they seem better behaved and more family orientated and if they get a job hold it and work hard.” But John Poole who runs a kitchen fitting business on the Costa Blanca disagrees, saying the general attitude towards work is not what it used to be. “Kids these days are too distracted by computers and television. They seem to think work will just fall on their laps. In my day you had to work and work hard to survive. There is always work if you work hard enough to find it.” And Roy Groves of Torre in Almeria feels although things are tough, in the main those that really want to work can find jobs. “Some Spanish I know have taken unpaid jobs just to get work experience.”

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) The changes that have already started in the way that you see your life have given pause for thought. You are sure that you could have done better but maybe it is not clear how. Take a step back now and see where you came from. Two years ago where were you heading? Do you still want to follow that path? A need to get back on track can start this week. LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) It becomes clear to you that some friends are drifting away. We all have to make changes as life itself is a constantly shifting event. You prefer to hold on to what is familiar and you are not alone in that. At the moment, however, there is much for you to experience, see and feel. Sometimes this brings you discomfort and sometimes unimaginable joy. SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) With a lot of pent-up energy and not a little determination the month is off to a strong start with you. Be aware, however, that treading on the toes of influential people is not to be advised. Your feeling that you are right is admirable, but be tactful. SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) You of all people understand the importance of the spiritual side of life. Despite being successful in your own right there is the need to bring this to other people. In sharing your experiences this year you come to a better understanding yourself. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Your practical streak is in full force. Over the next months you will bring much benefit to those around you, in financial terms perhaps, but also spiritually. This week, in itself, shows you how others value your presence and advice. AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) Your lot is to be optimistic and positive. Perhaps in the last few months there was the need to take on the problems of others. However, you absolutely must get a balance here. Concentrate this week on getting your body and mind in good shape. That means being a little self-centred to start with. A good routine is essential and the will to stick with it.

IF ITʼS YOUR BIRTHDAY THIS WEEK: There may still be an element of letting opportunities slip through your fingers. Is this because you are not used to making that really intense effort? You aren’t called upon to do it often, but this time it is well worth it.
September 5: Rose McGowan, 40. American actress who starred in TV supernatural drama series Charmed. September 6: Roger Waters, 70. Bass player and frontman of English rock band Pink Floyd. September 7: Gloria Gaynor, 64. American disco and soul singer who recorded I Will Survive in 1979.
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Your very nature can lead to internal struggles. In the coming months, however, the truth becomes clear. What is outside of your experience now will become a part of your make-up. Any fear that you had of the unknown gradually diminishes. ARIES (March 21 - April 20) There has been a very strong feeling through these last few weeks. This feeling has been one of spirituality. Your thoughts have been deeper than usual and the sense that there is more to life is acute. This, therefore, gives an impetus to everything that you do this week. The need to progress both on the home and business front has rarely been stronger.
Your Stars
September 8: Martin Freeman, 42. Science-fiction actor who played Bilbo Baggins in Peter Jackson’s The Hobbit.
Jesus Vazquez is a Spanish TV presenter. He started his career at age 25 in Spanish TV channel Telecinco and has been linked to it ever since. He is known for hosting the Spanish version of The Voice and his charity work. He released an album in 1993, but never resumed his musical career.
48
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) In the last few weeks there may have been a sense of being not quite in control. That is something to deal with this week. Real progress will only be made when you have faced what is not wanted. You will rid yourself of any negative emotions quickly by facing them. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) You are a great charmer but it is possible to have too much of a good thing. Is there the possibility that your romantic life needs tidying up? Perhaps the number of irons that you have in the fire is causing problems? This week, make it a priority to simplify your life. Be strong and straight with others. A clean slate for the future means not letting small matters run away with you.
September 10: Colin Firth, 53. English film, television and theatre actor, winner of two Academy Awards. September 11: Moby, 48. American electronic musician and descendent of Moby Dick author, Herman Melville. CANCER (June 22 - July 23) The ever-inquisitive part of your brain is in high spirits. Clearly there is much to be known and enjoyed over the coming months. Begin at the beginning though. Before you throw yourself into a spiritual or business endeavour, get the facts. I don't mean what people tell you they think. What you need right now is proof that your interest in a certain area is justified. LEO (July 24 - August 23) Certainly there have been times that you felt crestfallen. Sometimes circumstances bring us down. Avoid believing in the myth of ʻwhat should have beenʼ. What you are is not what others see but what you feel inside. Success does not depend upon your bank balance but rather more your spiritual progress.

TOP TEN www.bva.org.uk WORLD’S MOST INFLUENTIAL SPEAKERS TO mark the recent 50 year anniversary of Martin Luther King Jr’s “I have a dream speech,” this week’s top 10 looks at some of the world’s most influential speakers.
1 Martin Luther King Jr
“I have a dream” is arguably the most famous public speech in history, delivered to over 250,000 civil rights supporters on the steps of the Lincoln Memorial monument in Washington DC; it prompted civil rights legislation to prohibit discrimination against African Americans in the United States.
2 Mahatma Ghandi
Ghandi was the leader of Indian nationalism during the time when Britain ruled India, otherwise known as the Raj. Gandhi led India to independence under the ‘Quit India’ movement and gave several speeches to inspire movements for non-violence, civil rights, and freedom across the world.

Nigel James has been a regular visitor to the Costa del Sol for over 20 years and has a property in Elviria. The location is the perfect backdrop for his new thriller, The Marbella Project, about a father’s quest for revenge when his son is brutally murdered in Puerto Banus by the Russian mafia. Dan Green is no ordinary father. He is a former officer in
the SAS and recruits a former colleague to help him bring down the organisation which the Spanish police seem powerless to stop. Dan vows to bring down the family which controls organised crime on the coast. The bullets fly and the body count rises in this high octane thriller in which many of the locations will be familiar to anyone who knows the area.

On February 23 1981, Antonio Tejero led an attempted coup d’etat in Spain, during which King Juan Carlos gave a nationally televised address urging the continuance of a democratically elected government.

Adolf Hitler Hitler must be mentioned as one of the most influential speakers of the 20th century.

Shoulder conditions - part 1 THE shoulder is made up of three bones which are the clavicle (collarbone), the scapula (shoulder blade) and the humerus (the upper arm bone). The shoulder comprises of the associated joints, muscles, tendons and ligaments of the region. It must be mobile enough for the wide range of actions of the arms and hands, and stable enough for lifting, pushing and pulling. This compromise of mobility and stability results in a number of shoulder problems not faced by other joints such as the hip. This tremendous range of movement makes the shoulder more unstable and prone to dislocation and injury than other joints. Shoulder problems are very complicated to diagnose accurately and often result in long term serious pain with restricted activity and function.
Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com Misdiagnosis and poor understanding of the form and function of the joints and their relationship to the neck and back are the common cause of these long term problems. One of the least understood situations is the ‘rotator cuff.’ This so called group of muscles acts to initiate movement or provide stability for functions of the arm and hand. There are also bursae, these are little sacks that provide cushioning and allow smooth movement of the tendons to protect them from bony edges. An inflamed bursa can also give you a great deal of pain and often mask the true nature of the problem at the shoulder by that pain.
SHOULDER PAIN: Problems can be difficult to diagnose accurately.
Pain for whatever reason will then alter the ‘way you move’ putting protective movement patterns in place that begin to make matters more muddled, complicated and misleading. A history of previous falls or dislocations can also contribute to altered patterns of movement as we ‘recover’ from the pain
of injury but, keep the inaccuracy of the ‘wrong pattern’ of movement. There are many different types of injuries as there are many different structures and activities. Shoulder conditions have many names and you may have heard some of them: Frozen shoulder, rotator cuff injury, impingement syndrome,
biceps tendonitis, supraspinatus tendonitis, bursitis, instability issues (as in, the shoulder could just pop out!), stiffness or loss of strength. You can have osteoarthritis of the acromioclavicular joint and/or the shoulder joint. I will explain the various injuries over the next few weeks. A clear history and
understanding of the injury is paramount. A full functional assessment of movement (as in clothes off!) is essential and a confirmation of findings by X-ray or MRI scan. Shoulder surgery procedures can include total joint replacement and key hole surgery. Using an X-ray or scan to diagnose will NOT do as they can give misleading information and are often used to scare people into having unnecessary injections or even worse, unnecessary surgery. Similarly tablets may help to mask the pain but ultimately do NOTHING to change the altered patterns or problems. If you have any questions related to the symptoms and/or treatment of shoulder pain please call The Bodyworks Clinic on 952 883 151 or visit www.TheBodyworks Clinic.com.

Tobacco alternatives E CIGARETTES are now a popular option for smokers. In the US sales are about to hit the $1 billion mark. Known as vaping, the user inhales vapourised nicotine instead of drawing in smoke. And that means, claim
manufacturers, that many of the health problems suffered by smokers are avoided, whilst the user still gets the ‘hit’ of a cigarette. As there is no burning of tobacco, many of the substances normally inhaled are not consumed. That means no tar and no carbon monoxide either, and far fewer cancer-giving carcinogens. They can help ease withdrawal symptoms as part of a gradual weaning off tobacco. Many retailers offer ‘stop smoking’ packages where the strength of the nicotine is gradually reduced before finally giving up.

HC Marbella Fertility Centre stresses lifestyle changes FACTORS related to obesity, smoking and the consumption of alcohol can have a negative effect on assisted reproduction Lifestyle is becoming a determining factor in assisted reproduction from the point of view of the balance between the risks and the benefits of treatments which aim to achieve pregnancy. Dr Juan Manuel Marin, a specialist at the Fertility Centre of the HC Marbella International Hospital, explains that the most important factors which can have a negative effect are related to obesity, smoking and the consumption of alcohol. Women who are overweight (with a Body Mass Index higher than 25) have a 30 per cent less chance of becoming pregnant and a higher risk of miscarriage, because obesity interferes with the hormonal and metabolic mechanisms of women, reducing the ovarian function and resulting in

fewer eggs being released. “In these cases, losing weight can improve fertility and the possibilities of becoming pregnant”, advises this expert. With regard to smoking, the effects on fertility depend on the amount, for those who are passive smokers as well as those who actively smoke. In assisted
reproduction, these women need double the amount of cycles to become pregnant because smoking has a direct effect on the formation of gametes, increasing the time it takes to become pregnant and accelerating the menopause. This effect is greater in older women and is comparable to
increasing the age of the woman by 10 years. However, Dr Marin
points out that “this negative effect on reproduction reverses
after a year without smoking.” The ingestion of alcohol before this type of treatment influences ovarian simulation, with a negative effect on the recuperation of oocytes and, therefore, reduces the chances of pregnancy.

At the V Gastronomic Days of Moroccan Cuisine there will be a buffet comprising 40 different dishes for just €30 including drinks. Moroccan Cuisine is, above all, a family affair. There is a typical Moroccan proverb; “Mâ kainsh elkalâm fin kaien tag ham” where there is food, one

In the inland areas, especially the North, it is typical to sit on the floor and eat and many accompany the meal with traditional prayers. The buffet will offer delicious Moroccan dishes including lamb tagine with sultanas and almonds, roasted vegetables with couscous and spiced aubergines.

Prepare now for Christmas ONE of the joys of living in Spain is the pleasure of experiencing a colourful garden at Christmas. There are five main things to be done, starting now, to ensure you achieve this. 1. Resist doing the major annual garden cutback in the autumn as you would have done in Northern Europe. It is best done during the months of January and February. 2. Throughout the autumn aim to prolong the flowering of existing perennials and shrubs by continuously deadheading as soon as flowers die. Also cut back unsightly branches to stimulate new flowering shoots. If autumn is dry continue to water. 3. Stimulate the early flowering of shrubs and trees that often do not flower until early to mid-January. The three main requirements are to plant selected plants in south-facing beds sheltered from cold winds, to keep the plants watered and to feed with a high potassium feed. 4. If your garden is not already fully

planted, plant some of the shrubs and trees listed below during October and November. 5. Purchase a selection of plants in flower just before Christmas. Listed below are some of the garden plants that can be in flower at Christmas. Xmas flowering trees The most reliable late flowering trees are: • The strawberry tree (arbutus unedo) which has bright red fruits • Galan de noche • Of the early flowering trees the delebeta and bon accuel varieties of mimosa are spectacular with their branches covered in yellow flowers. Shrubs Lantanas are reliable in most
gardens and also hibiscus in warmer spots. Likewise roses if they have been deadheaded, watered and fed during the autumn. In a warm corner poinsettias up to two metres in height can be the perfect replacement for a garden Christmas tree. Climbing Shrubs Bougainvillaeas, bignonias, blue and white solanums and the perfumed white and yellow varieties of jasmines can produce some of the most spectacular year-end displays. Perennials The frutescens and coronarium chrysanthemums and euryops daisy give reliable colour in many gardens. Winter annuals The most reliable for colourful displays are the seasonal pansies, busy lizzies, stocks, wallflowers and also petunias. ©Dick Handscombe www.gardenspain.com September 2013

THE wish list of the so-called ‘Peru Two,’ Michaella McCollum Connolly and Melissa Reid, detained in a Lima jail on trafficking charges, reads more like the stuff you might pack for a late summer getaway. It ranged from baby oil, hair removal cream, Nivea moisturiser and a pack of cards to a sports bra size 32FF, toilet roll, envelopes and stamps. For food, they also opted for relative luxuries (Pringles, Nutella, oat and honey bars and Oreos) rather than more down-toearth necessities like bottled water or longlife milk. Now, whatever your opinion of the pair and the relative merits of their story (which sounds a bit like the plot of the next Guy Ritchie movie to me), their wish list got me thinking.

Rottweiler health problems YES, dogs get cataracts the same way people do. Cataracts are the most common, treatable form of blindness in dogs and the most commonly reported eye disease in Rottweilers. Cataracts usually develop when the dog is about 18 months old; however, it’s not unusual for cataracts to wait until the dog reaches its fourth, fifth or even sixth birthday to make an appearance. Cataracts can develop quickly or over a period of several years, as the dog progressively loses its vision until it is completely blind, and may be hereditary or occur as a secondary condition. They can be seen along with progressive retinal atrophy, glaucoma, inflammatory uveitis (inflammation in the front of the eye, sometimes seen with systemic autoimmune disorders),

diabetes and trauma. If left untreated, cataracts can also cause a serious reactive inflammation inside the eye known as lens induced uveitis (LIU). LIU can lead to glaucoma or a detached retina and can seriously harm your dog’s chances of ever getting back its vision. As cataracts develop, a Rottweiler’s eye(s) will go from their usual sparkling brown-to-black to a filmy,
cloudy grey, the result of the lens losing its clarity. Owners may also notice that the dog’s vision isn’t as keen as it used to be, they seem to have a hard time finding their food dish and, especially in cases where the cataracts develop quickly, a loss of depth perception. To date, surgery is the only treatment option for dogs with cataracts. Surgeons will remove the lens with the cataract and perform a lens implantation. This procedure is becoming increasingly common in dogs, and most animals are able to enjoy normal or close to normal vision by the time they’re done.

Some of our dogs have been with us for some time and would love to find a cosy spot to curl up in and a knee on which to rest their heads. If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive. We desperately need items to sell on our market stall to help raise funds and are happy to come and collect. So if you are having a clear-out, please contact us on 665 682 919 or 605 227 155.

Liberty Seguros
Because important matters such as car or home insurance require cover from a reputable company
LUCKILY most of us never suffer the large losses that everyone worries about, and people generally have very little experience in dealing with larger claims. Those that do, however, might be in for unpleasant surprises, with insurance companies creating problems or delays for unsuspecting policyholders. That’s why it is so important to make sure you choose a reputable insurer from the outset, with not just Spanish or UK, but GLOBAL support. Liberty Seguros forms part of the Liberty Mutual group, one of the world’s leading insurance and financial services companies, who has been protecting the past and future of millions of people
A WORLD LEADER: Protecting the past and future of millions of people. across five continents and who recently celebrated its

Choosing a cosmetic surgeon Aria Medical Group is dedicated to providing a caring and professional service. We make sure we offer not only excellent results but also personalised after-care. When choosing a surgeon, consider these points: 1. Qualifications Is the surgeon on a recognised register? Surgeons should be registered with their relevant medical councils, so for example surgeons may be registered with the UK General Medical Council’s Specialist Register for Plastic Surgeons and/or its equivalent in Spain. 2. Specialisms Cosmetic Surgeons should be qualified and registered in Plastic Surgery; for example, Aria’s Doctor Marco Vricella is a registered Specialist Plastic Surgeon. 3. Medical Team Ask about the team that will assist the surgeon. The anaesthetist should be registered and experienced. Aria’s theatre team are world-class. 4. Hospital A hospital registered with the local health authority. Aria uses the luxurious and private High Care International Hospital (HCI). Ask about your accommodation if you need an overnight stay. HCI offers private rooms with meals included and you can have a friend/relative stay overnight. 5. Consultation Aria Medical Group offers free consultations in Marbella, Gibraltar and Madrid with Dr Marco Vricella, your surgeon. A professional surgeon will always be honest about the
potential risks, however small, and give advice on how to minimise these through lifestyle changes before the operation. Make sure you have realistic expectations for the procedure. Results vary depending on age and quality of skin, lifestyle, and more. 6. After-care Aria Medical Group offers free after-care with all cosmetic procedures. In a few cases, revision surgery will be necessary. Aria Medical Group includes this free of charge. 7. Price This is one of the most important considerations for most people. The increased volume of operations has brought down the cost of surgery, but there is still an element of ‘you get what you pay for’. Your fee has to cover many elements including the time and expertise of the surgeon, anaesthetist, medical team, operating theatre costs, implant costs, a potential overnight stay with doctor on call, and extras such as medical supplies and breast implants. Aria Medical Group offers realistic prices and an approach that is sustainable so we’re around to look after you in the future. 8. Client Testimonials Talk to other people who have had the operation you are considering. Most surgeons will have client case studies available to read with ‘before and after’ photography. 9. Company Cosmetic surgery is very popular and there are medical groups across Europe offering procedures. With Aria
Medical Group you are assured to have the personal touch of an independent firm. 10. Location Having a cosmetic surgery procedure close to home has a number of benefits such as convenience, reduced travel before and after, and easier after-care consultations. Free Consultations If you want to find out more, book a free consultation with Dr Vricella: Tel: + 34 951 276 748 Email info@ariamedicalgroup.com www.ariamedicalgroup.com

CONTEMPORARY: XJ has a modern vibe.
INTERIOR: The 2014 XJ mainly changes focus on the rear cabin.
Jaguar updates its luxurious XJ sport saloon for 2014 THE 2014 model year Jaguar XJ is the latest in a long line from the luxury car maker. The sports saloon incorporates enhanced features to create a contemporary Jaguar. The Jaguar XJ is offered with a choice of a 2.0-litre 4cylinder i4 turbocharged petrol engine, diesel and supercharged petrol 3.0-litre V6 engines and four 5.0-litre
V8 petrol engines, one normally aspirated and three supercharged. These engines are mated to Jaguar’s eight-speed automatic gearbox which offers a broad spread of ratios for a combination of smoothshifting, economy and driver control. The 2014 XJ, available later this year from €98,950, features a range of enhanced
interior features focused on the rear cabin of the car resulting in the most accomplished Jaguar luxury saloon, according to the manufacturer. The rear passenger compartment of the 2014 LWB car includes two individual ‘airline style’ reclining seats which both feature cushion and squab adjustment, three massage programmes, lumbar
adjustment and two memory settings for each seat. The new centre armrest, which can be stowed in the upright position to allow the use of the centre seat, houses all the seat controls as well as the Front Seat Activation button which allows control of the front passenger seat from the rear. Front seat enhancements include massage functions for
each seat with five levels of intensity, allowing occupants to personalise their massage settings to their preference. The XJ presents a varied palette of materials used on the interior. This includes Bond grain, soft grain and semianiline leather, and a wide choice of veneers including Piano Black, Carbon Fibre, Gloss Burr Walnut and Satin Rosewood.

Spain will make the new Ford S-Max from 2015 FORD has revealed the new S-Max concept. It is a new sport activity vehicle that will be produced at Almusafes (Valencia) from 2015. The new S-Max Concept employs the latest Ford global design language with a high mounted grille, swept-back headlamps and an exclusive treatment of the vehicle’s lower fascia. And the original S-Max
profile has been honed with the front bonnet sweeping into the front screen, which in turn flows into the arc of the roof to create a unique glass roof graphic. This silhouette surrounds a spacious and versatile interior that offers anything from four to seven seat configurations. Further exterior design cues include a feature line running along the side of
the vehicle and distinctive headlamps featuring Organic LED. The interior is an expression of design, convenience, connectivity, flexibility, and craftsmanship. The front cabin places the focus firmly on the driver. Shapes and forms combine in a high-set instrument panel that cuts back in the centre console. High quality materials give the interior a sophisticated aura, Ford claims. The Ford S-Max Concept also employs Ford features and technologies to provide customers with new levels of connectivity and wellbeing as well as safety, convenience, and driving appeal.

Presently there are 296 pupils between the age of 6 and 18 enrolled in their golf school and another 150 on the waiting list. Augusto Torres, director of the junior golf school said: “I think the reasons for our success are many but I would highlight two in particular: the golf atmosphere that pervades the village and the wholehearted support of the parents and employees of the club….Children come first at La Cañada.

Her consistency was borne out with two excellent rounds of 75 to finish one shot ahead of Guadalmina’s Lucia who shot 76 and 75. For Álvaro Hernández this will be his second Lacoste Promesas Final. His home club is Golf del Sur (Tenerife), where he picked up his first club at the age of six, and is a regular on the island’s team. A first round of 71 set him up in command and, even though the wind got up on the second day, a 74 was enough to see him through.

denying Malaga midfielder Pedro Morales inside the opening 10 minutes. Sergi Darder then shot over from a tight angle for the visitors, while at the other end Kevin Gameiro struck the base of the post after Willy Caballero had blocked Alberto Moreno’s effort, before Juan Cala somehow fired over from close range. Nonetheless, it was Malaga that took the lead five minutes before the break when Morales punished a retreating Sevilla defence to strike a low shot into the bottom corner from the edge of the box. However, the home side were back on level terms just four minutes later when Kevin Gameiro, in a clearly offside position, steered a header wide of Caballero, but the goal was allowed to stand.

Figures that add up to a Bale full of money BIGGEST story of the summer transfer market in world football was undoubtedly the signing of Gareth Bale by Real Madrid in a €100 million deal. But the big question on many people’s lips is where do they get the money from? At a time when Spain is still struggling in the depths of economic gloom, unemployment stands at 26.3 per cent and millions of people are struggling after deep government spending cutbacks the message sent is clear: Real Madrid does not do austerity. But the headline figure of Bale’s €100 million cost, plus €300,000 a week wages for six years does not tell the full story. The sale of Mesut Ozil to Arsenal on the same day immediately recouped €50 million of the outlay, and got one of the club’s biggest earners off the books. In fact, whilst Madrid have paid out a total of m co rks Wo
k. toc ers t t hu _S
€163.5 million on players including Malaga’s young star Isco (€30 million) and Asier Illarramendi (also €30 million) from Real Sociedad, they have received €114.5 million from player sales. Gonzalo Higuain’s move to Napoli raked in €37 million, and whilst Brazilian star Kaka has gone for nothing to AC Milan, he is another big earner off the books. Whilst Madrid’s net outlay over the summer has been a still respectable €51 million, it is very much manageable for the richest club in the world. This is the mantle it has taken over from Manchester United. Figures in August showed annual revenues for Madrid passed the €500 million mark, the first time any club has achieved this. The latest Deloitte Money League report calculated that Madrid had seen a rise of 11 per cent in revenues to €512.6 million. Since those figures were collated, Madrid have signed a new shirt sponsorship deal worth 30 per cent more at €30 million a year. With figures like that it becomes clear how Madrid can afford a player for
What could €100 million pay for? Approximately 3,700 nurses for a year (average cost €27,000 each) 100 million small glasses of beer 40,899 magnums of Cristal Roederer Rose vintage Champagne at Marbella Beach Club (€2,445) 12.5 million menus del dia (at €8) 446,428 of the world’s most expensive burger (€224 from Serendipity 3, New York) 7,250 Ford Focus Trends (€13,820) 4 Ferrari Spyders.
