SERIOUSLY INJURED: The horse was hit on the 3033 main road.
Hit horse put down
A TRAFFIC accident at Km3 on the Alhaur铆nFuengirola 3033 main road resulted in the death of a horse. In the early hours of Tuesday morning, a horse which had managed to get onto the road was hit and seriously injured. Traffic officers from the Guardia Civil attended the scene, and on seeing the animal lying in agony on the ground, took pity on the horse. The Guardia Civil called the president of the Asociacipon CYD Santa Maria - a nonprofit organisation which acts as a refuge for
abandoned and mistreated horses - who arrived with vet Fernando Serna, who regularly works with the organisation. The animal was put down there and then so as to end its suffering, and the Asociaci贸n CYD have said that they intend to prosecute the owner of the horse, whose alleged negligence allowed it access to the dangerous main road. It is hoped that through taking tough measures against irresponsible owners incidents such as this can be kept to a minimum.

Back together PEOPLE power has led to cancer-stricken Ashya King, aged five, being reunited with his parents. English prosecutors decided to drop the case against Brett and Naghemeh King after more than 160,000 people signed an online petition demanding the release of the couple, who were being held for an extradition hearing. Prosecutors were left scrambling to get in touch with the Spanish authorities to secure the couple’s release after the public outcry. On Tuesday evening, the couple were finally released and travelled to Malaga for a reunion with Ashya yesterday (Wednesday). In their first press meeting after they were released from prison on the orders of a judge in Madrid, the Kings spoke
about their ordeal. Brett said he would happily spend years in jail to stop the NHS treating his son, because in his words, ‘its doctors are going to kill him or turn him into a vegetable’. Brett said he and his wife Naghemeh were being hunted across Europe by police as if they were terrorists, and that staff at the Southampton hospital knew he would take his son abroad. Almost breaking down in tears, he told the press that they were desperate to see Ashya because ‘he hasn’t got too many months to live’. He added: “When we were in prison there wasn’t a minute that went by without our hearts hurting to see Ashya. My wife spent most of the time crying in the cell.
“I was going to ask to move cells because I was worried and I couldn’t listen to my wife crying. When you are locked up you can’t do anything.” An international hunt was launched when the boy, who suffers from a brain tumour, was taken from a UK hospital. This thrust the Axarquia into the world’s spotlight after Ashya’s parents were arrested at a Benjarafe hostel on Saturday. They were separated from Ashya, who was taken to hospital. His parents had posted a YouTube video asking for the hunt to be called off and explaining their actions. In it, Brett said that they were not withdrawing treatment from their son, but rather wanted to seek an alternative therapy not available in the UK.

Blessed with a caring heart… The inspirational woman behind
Helicopteros Sanitarios When angels visit us, we do not hear the rustle of wings, nor feel the feathery touch of the breast of a dove; but we know their presence by the love they create in our hearts Mary Baker Eddy
S
IMPLY being in the presence of the founder and owner of Helicopteros Sanitarios, Maria Jose Cañete, one feels blessed and grateful. In the words of Hilary Clinton, women are the largest untapped reservoir of talent in the world and Maria Jose Cañete is the greatest example of this. Her story is truly inspiring. From the tender age of nine, Maria knew irrefutably that she was “going to grow up to do something to help people and be of service.” She travelled to London in her late teens to learn English and, on her return, was asked by a Swiss friend to start working for a company providing mountain search and rescue by helicopter. Maria took the offer with great enthusiasm and discovered that this kind of service felt very close to her childhood dreams of making a positive difference to those around her. At this time the N340 motorway running between Marbella and Malaga was a notoriously dangerous stretch of road. A shocking 38 per cent of people involved in serious accidents on what was known as ‘the road of death’ lost their lives because the hospitals were not within a close enough radius to get them there in time to save their lives. Maria Jose recognised this disastrous problem as something she personally could remedy and she knew then, that she had found her path and mission in life. From that moment to this very day (and undoubtedly for as long as she is able) Maria Jose worked resolutely to set up what is now the well known
MARIA JOSE CAÑETE: Her story is truly inspiring.
Helicopteros Sanitarios service. “It wasn’t easy, but nothing was going to stop me. I just knew it had to be done and despite whatever challenges I met, my vision and dream kept me strong, always moving forward, even if it felt like small steps at times,” said Maria. You could tell that her smile came from her heart, as she spoke about her husband and the support that he gave her when things were particularly trying: “It was so reassuring to have a good man behind me. He believed in me... he told me I had great experience, that I knew what I wanted and that I was strong. Amongst other setbacks, I wasn’t allowed to set up Helicopteros Sanitarios without having to follow all the protocol of setting up a full airline company!” She added: “Despite the odds, the obstacles and challenges of being taken seriously as a young woman, I told myself to hang on tight to the helm of my ship and
Helicopteros Sanitarios not only provides a life-saving hospital transfer service but it also gives its members a complete GP home service. That means whatever your health concern, whether it is minor or an emergency, their dedicated staff will come to your home without delay, as often as you require for no extra cost and diagnose and treat you accordingly in a reassuring, friendly and supportive manner. This service extends over the whole Costa del Sol.
no matter what, to keep the dream on course. Despite all the mistakes I made, which I realised in retrospect were important learning opportunities, it finally came to fruition.”
Maria Jose revealed that her greatest inspiration comes from knowing that her members put their complete faith in her company. Some of them have sent her letters saying that they have come to live on the Costa del Sol specifically because the service provided by Helicopteros Sanitarios gives them complete peace of mind. Others thank her profusely for saving the lives of their loved ones. “There is nothing more inspiring than those kind of letters, apart from watching the passion of my team and knowing we are all on the same page.” Maria Jose’s vision and enthusiasm never seem to dampen as she seeks to take Helicopteros Sanitarios to the next level. The company began as an emergency call service only, but now she employs many specialist doctors as the company is constantly evolving. The next exciting project is to move the company towards the goal of
building its own hospital which will be run with her ethos of service and excellence. When asked how she felt she could inspire others and other women in particular, she didn´t hesitate for a moment: “Many women feel overwhelmed when they try to develop their business here. I always tell people, that when they get up first thing in the morning and look in the mirror, not to see themselves as male or female, but firstly and most importantly as human. “Don’t begin your day or anything else with a feeling or perspective of separation. We must work hard to understand and have empathy and respect for others... that is the key to making personal and business relationships work. This is what I try to teach my children by example.” She was not joking when she said: “I do feel a sense of achievement, however, I don’t think I will ever feel I have done enough.” Editor’s note: If only we all had this driving sense of helping others, an attitude of servitude and deep caring for our fellow man. The world would be a very different and much more beautiful place in which to play out our butfleeting visits. A most heart felt thanks to Maria Jose and her wonderful team for all they have done and continue to do for the residents of the Costa del Sol.

Four arrested in drugs swoop POLICE in Malaga have placed four men under arrest for drug trafficking. National Police officers detained the men aged between 21 and 42 for allegedly dealing drugs in the Garcia Grana area of the city. As reported in a statement released by National Police, the arrests were part of
Operation Jero launched by law enforcement officials to crack down on drug trafficking. It appears the detainees would sell cocaine, hashish and a mixture of heroin and cocaine out of two Garcia Grana residences. According to the police, the suspects would hide the illegal drugs and the
money in a lumber room located in a garage. The police conducted two house searches and seized seven replica weapons, 15 cocaine wraps, 241 grammes of hashish, â‚Ź1,781 in cash, four car radios, two radio transmitters, a katana and two air rifles. The men are to be brought before a judge.

Retraction and public apology to the town hall of Benahavis THE owners of Euro Weekly News Group , Michel and Steven Euesden, have issued a public retraction and apology to Mayor José Antonio Mena of the town of Benahavis, and the community, residents and business owners of Benahavis concerning an article that appeared in print and digital format in Euro Weekly News editions 1520 and 1521. The initial article and the follow up article were sourced from an official press release from the town hall of Archidona as shown below. The press release was translated into English by a Euro Weekly News employee
who made a deliberate change to the content whilst translating the press release. The town of Archidona was intentionally changed three times purposely to show the name of the town Benahavis.
Legal advice and a full investigation is now under way The intentional change and inappropriate behaviour of the employee was only
brought to the attention of the news group after the article had been released. Euro Weekly News has since learnt that the dismissed employee is a Palestinian sympathiser and abused her position within the Euro Weekly News to portray her support for Palestine and sympathises with the Palestinian community. Legal advice is currently being taken which will determine the most appropriate way to deal with this matter. The Editor in Chief of Euro Weekly News Media Group responsible for the editorial

Euro Weekly News Media Group translation of Archidona Town Hall Press Release THE session passed unanimously the motion made by the Izquierda Unida in defence of the Palestinian people and condemned Israel’s military aggression. The session held in the town hall of Archidona on Tuesday August 5 unanimously approved the motion made by the Izquierda Unida in defence of the Palestinian people and condemned Israel’s military aggression. Izquierda Unida’s spokesman Juan Antonio Lara noted that on July 7 Israel started a military operation of great magnitude against the Gaza Strip in which more than 1,200 Palestinians have died, including 200 children and affecting more than 6,500 people. Lara claimed that it is genocide to such an extent as comparable only to the atrocities suffered by the Israeli people in the Jewish Holocaust. This time history was repeating itself with the same people who had suffered under Nazi persecution now reproducing that same aggression against the Palestinian population. With this motion Archidona Town Hall completely condemns the Israeli government’s aggression against the Palestinian people and urges the Spanish government to condemn the attacks and to break ties with Israel. Furthermore, it urges the UN to place the State of Palestine under its protection, and to launch an inquiry over the Israeli bombardment of Gaza. Alberto Arjona, PP spokesman, said he would support the motion because it is a tragedy that a war of this kind can take place in the 21st century, and that conflicts continue to bring pain. Spokesperson for the PSOE, Miguel Cebrián, noted that work needs to be done so as to not permit such situations to take place again, and for humanity to live in harmony. The Mayor of Archidona, Francisco Jiménez, was sorry that war continues to occur.

Missing civil war soldiers
IT has been 75 years since the end of the Spanish Civil war and there are still many families left in limbo, unsure of the fate that befell their loved ones during the conflict. Fortunately there are a number of associations helping families of soldiers who never came home find out what happened to them during the war fought between 1936 and 1939. One of those associations is Agrupacion de Familiares de Represaliados en Valdenoceda. The group is looking for the family of Domingo Calvente Carrasco, a native of Benalauria in the Malaga Province, who died in Valdenoceda prison on November 8, 1938.
“The objective is for his family to know that he is buried in the old parochial cemetery in Valdenoceda,” said Manuel Sempere, spokesman for the group speaking to the local press. At present it would not be possible to do a DNA test, as he was buried underneath other corpses due to lack of space. Benalauria Council has asked those with the name Calvente and Carrasco living in the municipality if they knew or have heard of Domingo Calvente, said
Benalauria Mayor Eugenio Marquez. “We do not even know if his family still lives in town,” he said. Sampere said the first 11 people who died in Valdenoceda prison were buried in the old parochial cemetery, the next two on a street and the rest in a plot bought by the prison. The group has reportedly contacted the families of the other prisoners buried in the old cemetery. Valdenoceda prison was open from October 1938 until August 1943.

Animal shelter needs volunteers to walk its many abandoned dogs ANIMAL shelter Triple A Marbella needs volunteers to walk abandoned dogs. As with every year during the summer, the animal shelter Amigos de los Animales Abandonados Triple A Marbella finds itself overflowing with abandoned dogs in need of a new home. Located on Carretera de Ojen-Marbella, it currently gives shelter to 452 dogs and the staff can barely cope given the large number of animals they must care for. In fact, some dogs go weeks without being walked. “If we do not get volunteers, Triple A will die,” Jan Weima told Spanish newspaper, Diario Sur.

The non-governmental organisation is asking for volunteers to join their cause and walk the abandoned dogs on Saturdays. “We have volunteer dog walkers during the year, but given the large number of dogs
we have now and since many volunteers are on holiday, not all the animals can be walked every week. If there is not a walker for a particular dog, it has to wait until the following week,” he said. The walks are organised right down to the last
detail. The dogs are walked on two different routes, one of which is located near Triple A, and every dog walker must follow the rules of the animal shelter. “The rules were established to cover the well-being and safety of the volunteers, staff and, of course, the dogs,” Jan explained. The volunteers are organised in groups led by a staff member; they must be at least 16 years old, fit enough to walk at least two kilometres and strong enough to walk and control the dog on the leash at all times. They are especially required to be sensitive to the feelings of abused, scared, sick dogs or of those undergoing treatment. “Let us not forget that these dogs do
not live in a house, but they spend 24 hours a day
in the shelter. They have a lot of energy,” said Jan.

Hola Credito helps family enjoy wedding day
Welcome to the weekly news from Hola Credito, Spain’s leading short term lender. In our weekly column we look at different lending solutions that Hola Credito offers – this week – a loan from Hola Credito surprises a far away bride. NOT all the funding short term lender Hola Credito provides is for serious business or personal financial issues. Recently a client’s daughter called from Australia and announced she was getting married in three weeks’ time. The client, who had used Hola Credito in the past for a business loan, knew that he would be able to quickly raise the cash to transport the whole family across the world to celebrate with his daughter. “Of course we wanted to be able to share her ‘big day’ but sorting out flights and hotels for the whole family at such short notice was expensive and I didn’t have the funds readily available,” the client said. But he knew that he would be able to use some 22 and 18ct gold he had stored in a bank vault as security, and contacted Hola Credito to arrange the funds. The company offers loans against
all items of 22, 18, 14 and 9ct yellow, rose and white gold, as well as sovereigns, Krugerrand and platinum, using the weight and carat of the items to determine the amount clients can borrow. “It was a fabulous surprise for my daughter. Hola Credito is very efficient, and after emailing the company the funds were available in less than 24 hours, and a few days later we were on our way.” As well as precious metals, Puerto Banus based Hola Credito (www.holacredito.com) accepts a range of luxury assets as security for loans, including watches, jewellery, luxury cars and boats. It operates throughout the whole of Spain, and the interest on loans is calculated on a daily basis (from 14 days to six months), so clients only pay for the number of days they need the loan.

Mijas police detain man for assault POLICE in Mijas arrested a man for allegedly assaulting his ex. Local Police officers in Mijas placed a man under arrest for allegedly violating a restraining order against him and assaulting his ex.
It appears a call was made to the police last Sunday saying a man was assaulting a woman in the middle of the street. However, when the police arrived on the scene the man was no longer there.

The glittering event was held at the Marbella restaurant in June and featured a host of celebrities and special guests.

Eyewitnesses provided the officers with a description of the man, who was later arrested. He reportedly disputed having assaulted the woman and said they had only argued with each other. Despite that, Mijas Council later informed the police that the woman had a restraining order on the man since March. During questioning, the woman told the police the man had arrived at her residence with the intention of arguing with her son and tried to violently steal her purse to get her keys. The underage child purportedly left with some friends who took him to a safer location. The officers then decided to detain the man for allegedly violating his restraining order and assaulting the woman.

suffering from malaria, a mosquito-borne infectious disease, whose symptoms include fatigue, headaches, fever and vomiting.
The tests carried out by the Instituto de Salud Carlos III rule dismissed the possibility of an infection with the Ebola virus after the hospital had
enacted the mandatory protocol established against all suspicious cases on Sunday. It appears the man had recently been in Nigeria and was running a high fever. He is also said to have had other symptoms consistent with the Ebola virus. The Nigerian national went to the Hospital de Antequera after developing the high fever and was referred to the Hospital Regional de Malaga since doctors feared he was suffering from malaria.
Upon arriving at Hospital Regional de Malaga, the man reported a headache and muscle pains. Those symptoms, combined with the fact that he had been in Nigeria, led the hospital to pre-emptively activate the protocol against the Ebola virus. Andalucian hospitals are ready to deal with potential Ebola patients and they have put in place specific protocols to detect suspicious cases, said Equality, Health and Social Policies councillor Maria Jose Sanchez Rubio. Patients who suspect they may be infected with the virus are advised to avoid direct contact with other people and to call their local health services through the sanitary emergency phone number 061.

And what a terrible ordeal for his parents to go through, not allowed to visit their beloved child in hospital, and forced to leave their other children in the care of their eldest son. Yes, initially the authorities acted in the best interests of Ashya, but once the wheels of bureaucracy ground into action, seemingly the last person to be considered was that same little boy.

IFACH: Digging out the past.
Community that settled Marina Alta
THE Pobla de Ifach excavations at the foot of the Calpe landmark are over for this year. The dig, overseen by the Alicante Archaeology Museum (MARQ) brought to light what must have been a guardroom, said dig director and archaeologist Jose Luis Menendez. Located at the approach to the mediaeval settlement it was around six metres wide and 16 metres long. The 40 student volunteers from 17 Spanish and European universities who spent July and August at the site have now uncovered approximately half of the building. They also located plaster walls with graffiti scrawled by the inhabitants and users of the building which was constructed between 1305 and 1325. Pobla d’Ifach was destroyed and abandoned in 1400, Menendez said, but it was the nucleus of Marina Alta towns like Calpe, Benissa and Teulada that were peopled by the descendants of the hundred or so families who once lived there. Juan Bautista Rosello, who heads the Alicante Diputacion’s Culture department, applauded this year’s findings. The natural and archaeological importance of the enclave was fundamental, he said, not only for Calpe but for the entire province.

STAT OF WEEK EUROPE loses €136 billion in lowered productivity caused by employees’ stress. Only 29 per cent of Spanish companies protect staff against stress, compared with the EU’s 56 per cent average.
Not much difference SIXTY PER CENT of parents worry about the return to school, revealed comparison website Rastreator.com. Last year families paid an average €670 in registration fees, textbooks, and materials. This rose to €1,080 and €1,530 for state-aided and private schools respectively, found
consumers’ association CECU. Despite their worries only 13 per cent of parents have changed their children’s schools since the crisis. Of those who did, 30 per cent sent them to a cheaper option within the same category. Thirty per cent downscaled from private to state education, just over 25 per cent
Overflowing wine vats predicted CASTILLA-LA MANCHA is yet again on course to produce too much wine. Once this year’s grape harvest has been processed there will be insufficient room in some districts to store the wine following 2013’s record 53million hectolitre production. Castilla-La Mancha’s wine-makers have historically prized volume over quality and shunned the lower yields preferred by many other regions. As a result, some bodegas cannot find buyers for their entire production. There has been less demand from Spain’s catering industry although family consumption has risen slightly. Prompted by
low bulk prices averaging €0.41 a litre, exports increased to 22 million hectolitres last year with most of the wine destined for Italy, France, Portugal and the UK. A further seven million cubic hectometres was used for grape juice but neither the domestic nor foreign markets have been able to absorb Castilla-La Mancha’s 2013 production. The situation can still be remedied, believes Rafael del Rey who heads Spanish Wine Markets Observatory. If the grapes grown in Castilla-La Manca were paid according to calibre, this would discourage overproduction and encourage quality, not quantity, Del Rey said.
changed from state-aided to state and 14 per cent went from private to state-aided. Three-quarters of parents will compare prices this year and 55 per cent are applying for grants. Some will acquire secondhand textbooks and uniforms while others will cut down on meals, transport and extra activities.

usiness extra
Dodgy business AN extra €46 billion from drugs, contraband and prostitution will now be included in Spain’s GDP. Since there are no official figures, estimates may not be 100 per cent reliable, economists warned.
Fewer lay offs ERE redundancy plans affected 91,169 employees between January and July this year. This was 58 per cent lower than in 2013 when 126,864 were laid off during the same period.
Hasty words equal share rise MODEST pharmaceutical laboratory Bionaturis recently set Spain’s secondary stock market (MAB) abuzz. Its shares shot up by 15 per cent after their website announced it could produce 1 million doses of anti-Ebola vaccine within a month. Next day Bionaturis was obliged to explain it was not developing an Ebola vaccine. It had intended to
say that with sufficient financial backing, the laboratory was capable of producing that amount. “The statement was an error that got out of hand and was taken out of context,” said Bionaturis CEO Victor Manuel Infante. In response to Infante’s admisstion, the stock market immediately responded with a 14 per cent fall in the share price.

THE financial world is forever harping on about how women need to be smarter when it comes to money. Financial advisors and research papers tell us that we need to learn how to manage our money better and they say that in comparison to men we lack financial confidence to make the smartest decisions possible when saving or investing. Of course understanding money helps women, families or business people work towards their goals and secure their financial well-being, but by being told you are bad at
BELIEVE YOURSELF: Confront money management with a smile. something isn’t necessarily the best way to encourage a woman to sharpen up on her financial literacy. A lot of financial dialogue can be pretentious and overwhelming, thus causing some women to become even more scared to approach the subject of money. It doesn’t have to be this way, however! For starters, just keep in mind these small positive steps and you’ll be on your
What if their lawyer is a lemon? Q. A year after we completed on our home purchase in Spain, we still have no You and the Statement of Account, invoice or surplus Law in Spain funds returned to us by our solicitor. By David Searl I have emailed him several times a week for six months but he responds to about every 10th one. When he does reply, he promises that it will all be dealt with by ‘next Monday,’ but the Mondays keep coming and going, with no resolution. On one occasion, he got us to drive all the way to his office. All he had was an envelope with some scribbled figures. He had no idea what was going on and I had to list out the transfers for him. Basically, I need to find a way to get this guy to conclude our dealings in a satisfactory manner and to return surplus monies. So, how can I do this? P.B. (e-mail) If your Spanish lawyer really turns out to be a ‘lemon,’ you have two options available. You can go directly to the ‘Colegio de Abogados,’ which is the Spanish version of the Law Society, with your complaint. Or you can instruct another solicitor. I recommend this second option. Do not be concerned that one lawyer will not go against another. First you need a new lawyer in any case. Second, you are far more likely to retrieve your papers and any money owed to you quickly. Send your questions for David Searl through lawyers Ubeda-Retana & Associates in Fuengirola at Ask@lawtaxspain.com, or call 952 667 090.
way to a more confident financial you. Get started - Don’t let financial jargon frighten you. Set a plan in action to address your money management. Budgets, saving, investing - sit down and put some ideas on papers. Getting started is the first step. Avoid unsolicited advice - The advice of family and friends is invaluable in certain instances, but that
doesn’t mean they are the best people to approach for financial advice. Find a financial advisor that you feel comfortable with or a knowledgeable friend or family member who can give you unbiased advice. Do it your way - Budgets and financial plans are not set in stone. Each person has different needs and therefore designing a budget or method of money management that
you are comfortable with is the most important part of building your financial know-how. If you don’t ask you don’t get - Never shy away from asking your boss for more money. If you are a hard worker and truly believe you deserve a raise then there is no harm in asking. Breathe - Managing your money, properly, for the first time can be tricky so don’t panic if you make some mistakes. Giving up is not going to help, so just ask for some help to see how to face the issues you are facing. Believe in yourself - If you enter any challenge lacking confidence in yourself it is going to take twice as long to overcome any obstacles you may face. Confront money management with a broad smile on your face and believe you have the capability to get money smart.
Importance of customer care in your business Talking shop Mike Walsh Mike Walsh was for 20 years Regional Assessment Manager for the Guild of Master Craftsmen, Britain’s biggest quality assurance body for businesses.
www.michaelwalsh.es • 966 786 932
BUSINESS owners pay much attention to the running of their business. The poor relation on the ‘Must Do’ tick box is often customer care. I was reminded of this when my wife and I were met by ice cold officiousness from a booking clerk as we explained our needs. She had her inner demons. We were, I suppose, in her cross-hairs that day. The staff member’s offhand attitude spoiled for us, and no doubt others, what is known as the customer experience. Of the many business maxims collected one of my favourites is: “If we get it right tell the world. If we get it wrong tell us.” Good business advice but it can be a tough call. It is often easier to avoid unpleasantness and take your business elsewhere. However, it costs seven times as much to attract a new client as to keep an existing one.
As a business owner it pays to strike up a good relationship with customers. It pays extra dividends if you encourage them to help your business by remarking candidly on their customer experience and then putting flaws right. Here are a few facts that focus on the importance of treating the boss (the customer) with friendliness and civility. According to 1st Financial Training Services 96 per cent of customers don’t complain when disappointed by poor service; 91 per cent simply never return. A dissatisfied customer will tell nine to 20 people of their bad experience. Happy clients, according to the White House Office of Consumer Affairs, will express their satisfaction to just four to six people. Marketing sources agree that 70 per cent of buying experiences are based on the customer’s perception of how they were treated. Believe it or not price is secondary. Customers who rate your business five on a nought to five scale are six times more likely to return than a customer who marks you four to five. If your business is quiet whilst rivals are busier, then lack of customer care could be the reason.

Highlight of the year SEPTEMBER 10 sees for many the highlight of The Rock’s year: Gibraltar National Day. It commemorates the 1967 referendum in which Gibraltarians voted to stay British rather than become part of Spain. To call it an overwhelming vote is to put it mildly - 99 per cent were in favour of staying under British sovereignty - with just 44 inhabitants voting for Spanish sovereignty. But it was not until 25 years later, in 1992, that the first National Day was held. At the time it was held at John Mackintosh Square and was organised by the Self Determination for Gibraltar Group (SDGG). The crowds who turned up surpassed all expectations and could not fit into the piazza. So the Gibraltar Government took on some of the responsibilities of organising future events, declaring the day a public holiday and giving a grant to the SDGG. The aim was to highlight the right to self-determination that

use it to celebrate Gibraltar rather than any particular political stance, although the wishes of Gibraltarians to remain apart from Spain are still obvious on the day. The main event was returned to John Mackintosh Square where a street-party
style atmosphere was fostered. The official events begin with a children’s fancy dress contest then street party before a school choir sings songs with a Gibraltar theme. The action continues with the main event of the day when the Mayor of Gibraltar recites the
recipients of the Gibraltarian Medallion of Honour. First spectacular sight of the day is the release of 30,000 red and white balloons to symbolise The Rock’s population. It is all held against a backdrop of live music all afternoon at Governor’s Parade and The Rock on the Rock Club, before a fireworks’ display in Gibraltar Harbour and a rock concert.

Watch repairs to the highest standard
HEADLINERS: The Script.
Get ready to rock IT is nearly time for the Gibraltar Music Festival (GMF). An international line-up is set to rock on Saturday from midday. The Script will be headlining GMF, playing all their hits live at the Victoria Stadium on Saturday at 10.30pm The Script, who have toured with U2, Take That and Paul McCartney, have amassed almost four million followers on Facebook, 1.5 million on Twitter, racked up 100 million YouTube views. And their singer Danny O'Donoghue has starred as a coach on the BBC’s TV talent show ‘The Voice’.
Their latest album ‘#3’ was a huge success and spawned the No. 1 hit single ‘Hall of Fame’. Their music is catchy pop rock; their anthemic choruses are sure to have everybody singing along at the Victoria Stadium. Once again, the all-day event will take place during Gibraltar’s National Week festivities and will be family and disability friendly. Minister for Culture, Steven Linares, said: “I am delighted we will all be able to enjoy The Script live in Gibraltar.

THE sixth edition of Gibraltar’s Charity Cardboard Boat Race took place at Ocean Village Marina. Main organisers William Tilley Lodge RAOB, entrants and spectators all agreed it was a vintage year. Emilia Hazell-Smith, Marketing Executive at Ocean Village, said: “The enthusiasm and effort on display this year were quite incredible, and a buzz was already building at the pre-event cardboard boat showcase in Casemates Square. With the mercury touching 28ºC as the boaters hit the water at midday, the crowds were out in force, and I suspect some of the oarsmen were quite pleased when their cardboard creations sunk so they could cool off a bit. HMS Harry was one of the first to escape the heat as it barely got out the blocks before sinking.” Emilia continued: “Weeks of hard work clearly went into several of the boats, with winners of the Junior Race, The Black Pearl, also claiming Best Junior Boat Design for their unbelievable pirate ship construction and costumes. Meanwhile, Saxomania, although only managing second in the Adult Race, won Best Adult Boat Design for their lifelike HMS Victory complete with papiermâché pirate puppet who was given its own medal.

Happy birthday Morrisons – the best value in Gibraltar for over 20 years IT is a big happy birthday to Morrisons at Westside as it celebrates its 20th year of trading. The company has actually been serving the community since 1908, previously as Safeway, Presto and Liptons. And as thousands of happy customers in Gibraltar and along the Costa del Sol can testify, the company has always been the number one destination for food shopping in Gibraltar. It has been so successful over time that the investment in a superstore was made 20 years ago. It is the only Morrisons store outside Britain and has gone from success to success to become the jewel in the crown for the company. To celebrate the store’s birthday, a reception was held at the floating Sunborn Hotel. Among the guests were the Governor, the Chief Minister,
CELEBRATING: Morrisons’ staff, suppliers and distinguished guests. many of the store’s suppliers and 40 of the staff who also celebrated having worked at the store for all of those 20 years. The store got a special mention from director Martyn Jones at the reception for its involvement in the local community. And it is that involvement which has seen the
Gibraltar store take the mantle as the company’s highest fundraising store for charity. In its three-year partnership with Save the Children, a superb £150,000 has been raised – something all of Gibraltar can be proud of. Now the caring store has been raising money for the Cancer Relief Society and made
a presentation of £3,000 to them on its birthday night. The store is primarily shopped at by Gibraltarians but is also a destination for expats, tourists and yachts. The reason? Customers know they will get the same great selection and value for money as they do back in the UK. About 80 per cent of the
store’s goods come from the UK and the rest from suppliers in Gibraltar. The UK stock comes down by lorry from Kent. It takes two drivers and three days for the stock to arrive in Gibraltar and at any one time there may be up to 18 lorries on the road. The range is nearly the same as a store in Britain, which is why it has become a welcome shopping trip for expats who can find all of their home comforts at hand like PG tips, Heinz baked beans, Marmite, bacon - the list is endless... The store does have its points of difference though; for example, it’s the only Morrisons with a bar - so you can get a glass of wine with your freshly cooked fish and chips in the store café! As part of the store’s celebration this summer, there are an extra special number of great promotions in store.

OPINION & COMMENT
Keep guns off the streets of Britain… I HAD seen this coming, as we can always count on Leapy Lee to rant on about dramatic events without ever offering any solution that could work. This time he has excelled himself. Hasn’t he seen the footage of the armed police presence in Ferguson, Missouri? Is that what he wants Britain to be like? A country with armed police or soldiers on every corner is not a free country, and I thought naively that a free country is what Leapy wants. Nobody should ignore the threat from Islamic extremists but dealing with them is the job of our intelligence services, and preventing radicalisation is everyone’s job. Stop demonising Muslims, get them involved in all levels of society. Leapy’s recipe would certainly increase the number of Muslims who despair of being truly accepted in Britain. It’s fortunate that his recipe has absolutely no chance of being adopted by the government, but his loose talk has quite enough bad effects. Please Leapy, we love you really, but don’t rant, don’t generalise, just think! Bill Campbell, Mojacar Playa (Almeria) Editor’s note: Leapy called for a special armed force of 100,000 to be formed to patrol UK streets to combat Islamic extremists.
Work provider I WAS glad to see that the Euro Weekly News has the insight to be able to solve the recession. Your article on ‘Dreambeach’ made me laugh. Just one look at the picture on the front cover of your last edition makes me want to vomit. Do you really think that organising events such as these help the local community and economy? You mentioned jobs for local people. What type of jobs? What type of contracts? These young party animals abound in the Mojacar area. But the sad truth is that I don’t see

Language hurdle I BOUGHT a washing machine in September 2011 for €229 and paid on the advice of the sales lady a further €40 to extend the warranty to 2014. The machine failed totally in July 2014 and I requested a full refund but was told to contact the store’s insurance company. The assistance I received was totally unhelpful and a telephone number I was given has been useless as I am always informed that no English-speaking person was available. At least six emails have been to no avail and the store itself is completely unhelpful. I would be very grateful, if through your paper you could make your readers aware that customer service often falls very short of what most customers would expect. Roy Phillips, Torrevieja (Alicante)

them contribute to the local economy. Yes, they do create jobs as someone needs to clean up after them. Someone needs to repair the trail of damage they leave in their wake. Extra police are called in to keep order when they are at play. These are jobs, yes, but they are paid for from our pockets in the form of tax. Personally, I would prefer to pay that tax just to keep them away. Sean O’Connell (by email)
Share the dream REGARDING your headline article in the Costa de Almeria edition, ‘Dreambeach brings in €7 million,’ it would be very good if some of this was given back to the village.

Flour remedy A FEW days ago I reached out for my hot iron without looking, missed the handle and grabbed the base. The pain was immense. I rushed to the pantry and thrust my hand into a bag of flour, squeezing my burnt fingers as advised in your newspaper. After a few moments all was tenderness and, as your correspondent stated, no blisters, no red marks, no pain! As to the subsequent letter on the same subject warning of the dangers of this action, maybe it depends on the seriousness of the burn. Olivia Qualtrough, Nova Sta Ponsa (Mallorca)
YOUR photo of rubbish at Cabo Roig is only the tip of the iceberg. To cross from one side of the strip to the other necessitates either wading through rubbish in the underpass or trying to avoid bottles, litter and worse on the foot bridge.

The real thing I MUST respond to Flora Simmons’ letter ‘No Bargain’ which appeared in response to my letter in the previous edition. My comments regarding people buying fake polo shirts from the Looky-Looky men was written from their point of view i.e. the shirts are perfect to them at around €15, rather than an extortionate €85. As for my not knowing the difference between the fakes and the real thing, quite right: I don’t own either. And is Ms Simmons seriously saying that the ‘real’ shirts aren’t made in sweatshops on the other side of the world? Richard Franklyn, Benalmadena (Malaga)

LL this PC and racist rubbish really has to stop. If it walks like a duck, quacks like a duck and looks like a duck, it’s highly likely it could actually be a duck. If you’ve got frizzy hair a broad nose and thick lips you are probably of African descent. If you have slanted eyes and a round face, you could well have connections with China, Japan or certain other Asian origins. If you are white with a narrow nose and round eyes you are likely to be from Europe or some western civilization. These dammed PC and racist ranters have actually managed to get millions of us denying our very existence. All of us are exactly the same on the inside; we have just evolved differently on the out, generally because of the wide assortment of environments that exist on this planet of ours.

LEAPY LEE SAYS IT OTHERS THINK IT pillocks are using the insecurity and immaturity of vast numbers of people to create racial hatred where it never existed before. ‘Paki’ was not considered a derogatory expression, until they decided it was. It was merely a more convenient shortening of the word Pakistani. The description of Jap is the same, as is Brit. What we all need to do is grow up. There was no racism intended when the Black and White Minstrels made themselves up for a bit of fun. Many Japanese and Chinese carnival participants paint their faces white. The Golly on the jar of marmalade was merely a black doll, nothing more, nothing less; rather flattering really. The people
ANE POOLE, from SPC International Real Estate, has been in Spain for 25 years and has seen a lot of changes for the good in terms of equality for women. “Things like working as a notary were mainly done just by men but now there are a lot of female notaries and lawyers so in that respect women have become freer,” she said, adding: “I think a lot of it is down to the woman herself, and attitudes have changed as many women have to work. The only thing I do think Spain is at fault with now is the new law on abortion, which is a backward step for the country and women.” Gabrielle Discher, owner of Country Life health food store in Benissa, does not believe that Spain as a whole can be classed as backward in women’s rights. “As always, it is just the view of a few. Spain is now much more open-minded. I personally have never felt mistreated or been in a situation where I have felt inequality against women,” she remarked. But Matt Shatford of Weekend Sport, Vera Playa, said: “Yes, I think Spain is behind the times sometimes with regards to equality but that tends to be the older men who are stuck in their ways. The younger groups are completely the other way and much more respectful of women and equality so I think things are definitely improving.” And Lynda ‘Loulou’ Barnes, of Loulou’s Hair Design in Velez Rubio, said:
BLACK OR WHITE: There is no difference on the inside. who make these decisions are in fact the biggest bigoted racists of all. The whole lot of these sponging trouble makers should be fired and their interfering, public money
financed organisations, closed down for good. If they are allowed to continue unabated, I dread to think where it will all end. Probably with the banning of the words black and white altogether. Just a
Spain not so in the Dark Ages THE question of equality of the sexes has raised its head with several Spanish politicians being accused of a Dark Ages mentality towards women. Do you think Spain is backward when it comes to women’s rights or is it no worse than anywhere else? What can be done to improve equality?
minute, hasn’t that already begun? Is it not, in some circles, already frowned upon to ask for a black or white coffee? With or without milk is I understand now the more acceptable term. Give us a break. The recent vomit inducing events in Rotherham are a prime example of the alarming events that can occur as a result of these interfering and highly dangerous PC committees. Bunches of busybodies, which fester in our societies like uncontrollable tumours. Well it’s high time they were all stopped in their tracks. If they are not, we’ll all be at each other’s throats for simply existing at all. What do ya mean, we already are? Never mind. Chins up everyone. It’ll be a brighter day tomorrow!
Keep the faith. Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com.
“I’ve had no experience of being treated as less of an equal here in Spain. If anything it was worse in the UK. Certainly no examples come to mind. I feel more respected here than the UK and am treated more like a lady.” Paula Read-Kenny of Sophia’s Wellness Centre in Arboleas agreed. “I have not found it to be a problem. But then I think that if you give a good account of yourself and prove your own worth, it is never an issue,” she said.

OPINION & COMMENT
The jewels of the Golden Mile who have stood the test of time AS summer draws to a close, I thought it would be appropriate to say thank you to some of our unsung heroes on the Costa del Sol: jewels in our Golden Mile that you may not have even heard of. Places and people that have faced so many adversities over the past four decades that it’s a miracle they’re still here today. The first Marbella Chiringuitos. Today we have such a huge choice of where to go that the pioneers of Marbella’s beach life could be forgotten, and that just can’t happen, so, this is my tribute to the three men that started it all, Victor, Pedro and Fernando…. Back in the day it was Victor’s Beach at Playa Ancon that first put Marbella on the international jet-set map with its great food, loud music and host of topless sunbathers; quite a change for post-Franco Spain. But in these early days he also faced the constant challenge of having to tear down and rebuild his
Viva Marbella... With
Nicole King of Mi Marbella radio business with almost every change of local government to meet with new specifications. Today, Victor’s Beach is half the size of what it was but his charm still attracts the crème de la crème of Marbella’s tourists and by providing a courtesy golf buggy to chauffeur clients to and from the Puente Romano, is as successful as ever, and this year celebrates his 35th anniversary to prove it! Opened in 1978 was Pedro’s Beach at Playa del Duque, Nueva Andalucía, initially just renting windsurf boards and jet skis. Then came a small hut offering drinks and a palm tree for shade and today, 36 years on, Pedro’s has established itself as a tropical
UNSUNG HERO: Pedro of Pedro’s Beach, Playa del Duque, Marbella. paradise with some 250 sunbeds, serving delicious lunches and dinners amidst a plantation of palm trees and sunflowers. Five-star dining at Pedro’s doesn’t require a shirt as everything is true ‘chiringuito
style’. The quality of the food is constantly amazing and you just have to try his famous Pedro’s PilPil sauce – it tastes so good you’ll never eat a pil-pil anywhere else, ever again. And finally a mention must be
made to Fernando of Puretas’ Beach in the Oasis complex. After 36 years, he is still there to reminisce about his days working in Pepe Moreno’s as a teenager, the Marbella nightlife of the 80s, which he then happily exchanged to dedicate to the beach life, true Marbella style. Thanks to the new Paseo Maritimo these three jewels of The Mile are far more accessible now so I hope that you’ll take a trip with me down memory lane and pay them a visit before the summer ends and experience a taste of Marbella’s beach history.

VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) You will consider this quite a boring week, no doubt, but that could soon be remedied as you seek out invitations and social events. You are doing no favours, either to yourself or others, if you do not push yourself forward. Others enjoy your company, even though you may be bored with it yourself.
SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) Non-communication is a worrying thing. You sent out a message some time ago that remains unanswered, so to save yourself agonies, why not telephone? Perhaps you hesitate because of a rejection in the past. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Having put out feelers for something to do in the summer evenings, it now seems that you are spoiled for choice. Go for new experiences first and the tried and tested later. AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) A door fleetingly opens in front of you and you see something desirable. After the door has closed you still see the image. Why do you deny what you need when it is so easily possible for you to attain it? Reach out this week in the right direction and keep moving forward. .

Your Stars
September 4: Beyonce Knowles, 33. Singer. Former member of Destiny’s Child she has since gone on to become an extremely successful solo artist with hits like Love on Top. She has won 17 Grammy awards.
FLIKR BY El Hormiguero
SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) It may be that you hesitate when offered an opportunity, not necessarily because you think that you are not up to it. The problem may be that you are aware that there are social aspects, and perhaps you feel unable to cope with too much attention at one time. Life busy enough?
1. BADGER, 2. BLUE WHALE, 3. EMPEROR PENGUIN, 4. Saltwater CROCODILE, 5. POLAR BEAR and KODIAK BEAR, 6. CAPYBARA, 7. RABBIT, 8. African Bush ELEPHANT, 9. Green ANACONDA - the reticulated PYTHON of Southeast Asia is longer but more slender and has been reported to measure as much as 9.7 m (32 ft) in length, 10. ALBATROSSES
LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) It may be a bit scary doing something different - you are a strong person, but unused to entering into new experiences. Consider how you would have approached this situation 20 years ago; have you really changed? Are you not the same person? Try to gain a new experience every week. .
1. According to the British Wildlife Centre, which is Britain’s largest land carnivore? 2. At 30 metres (98 ft) in length and 170 tonnes (190 short tons) or more in weight, which sea creature is the largest living mammal? 3. Endemic to Antarctica and reaching 122 cm (48 in) in height and weighing anywhere from 22 to 45 kg (49 to 99 lb), which is the largest member of the penguin family? 4. Found in suitable habitats from Northern Australia through Southeast Asia to the eastern coast of India, which is the largest of all living reptiles? 5. Name either of the largest living land carnivores? 6. Native to South America, which is the world's largest living rodent? 7. The Flemish Giant is the largest breed of which domesticated animal? 8. Which is the largest living terrestrial (land) animal, with males reaching 6 to 7.5 metres (19.7 to 24.6 ft) in length, 3.3 metres (10.8 ft) in height at the shoulder, and weighing 6 tonnes (13,000 lb)? 9. Which is the world’s largest snake, whose maximum verified size is 7.5 m (25 ft) and 250 kg (550 lb)? 10. Which seabirds, allied to the procellariids, storm petrels and diving petrels, have the largest wingspans of any extant birds, reaching up to 12 feet (3.7 m)?
September 8: Pink, 35. Singer. Born Alecia Beth Moore, Pink is an R & B singer who had a number one hit with Lady Marmalade. Before fame she dreamed of being an Olympic athlete but developed asthma.
September 5: Michael Keaton, 63. Film actor. He has starred in films like Beetlejuice and Batman as well as comedies like Multiplicity. He also did the voice parts of some of the cars in the film Cars.
September 9: Michael Buble, 39. Singer. Grammy award winning jazz singer who has sold more than 30 million records Buble was raised a Catholic and even slept with a bible when he was a child.
September 7: Chrissie Hynde, 63. Singer. Singer, songwriter and founder of The Pretenders which released a string of hit singles. Hynde was a member of the hippie counter-culture while at Kent State University.
September 10: Colin Firth, 54. Film actor. This British actor gained prominence for his role in Pride and Prejudice and received an Academy nomination for his role in A Single Man - the year after he won an Oscar for his part in The King’s Speech
PISCES (February 20 - March 20) As you know what you want, it should be a simple thing to devise a method of getting it. But you may need a little expert help and lots of determination. Younger people turn out to be most useful in this respect and treat the whole thing as a game.
TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) It is always difficult for you to stand by and see others make glaring mistakes, especially a family member. However, there are times when it is important that people work things out for themselves. It is only then that a lesson is truly taken on board.
ARIES (March 21 - April 20) A surprise visit or phone call this week takes your mind back into the past. Perhaps something that you did not fully understand is now explained. Although, there may be elements that you find upsetting midweek, it is important to realise that some things come your way for a good reason.
GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Doing what is 'right' comes easily to you, but this week throws up a strange situation, and this time doing what is 'right' could have the wrong result. I do hope that doesn't sound confusing, because it is not meant to be. To get the outcome that you desire it may be necessary for you to withhold some information.
September 6: Karlos Arguiñano. TV chef. This Spanish chef shot to fame in the early 1990’s as one of Spain’s first celebrity chefs. He even won a TP de oro (equivalent of a Bafta TV award) for being the 1992 year’s revelation act. He has a programme on Antena 3 and has participated in several films and brought out about 20 books.

TARGET: Average: 10 Good: 13
66
CANCER (June 22 - July 23) It is hard to fit into a situation this week - you thought nothing of putting yourself in a certain position, but now that you are there you see the problem. You are not so much out of place, as feeling rather awkward. Why? This is a new experience for you, and you are unused to new places. LEO (July 24 - August 23) A recently-accepted project seems to be running away with itself - did you volunteer to do something small and find out that it is a big task? Never mind, because you are quite able to ask for help, and in doing so you could meet someone who will be very important to you. Do I have your interest now?

TOP TEN STRANGE LEGACIES
SPONSORED BY For solutions: http://www.euroweeklynews.com/puzzle-answers.html
Some people, and even places, have left legacies in the strangest ways and are remembered long after their demise for things which must have seemed unimportant at the time - here is a list of 10 people, and places, whose names were immortalised in the oddest of ways. 1. The leotard Jean Marie Jules Leotard was a French lawyer turned gymnast who invented the trapeze by stringing two ropes and hanging a bar between them but he wasn’t remembered for this. In order to perform acrobatics and swing on this new invention he needed clothes that would not tangle in the ropes and the form-fitting leotard was born. 2. Bluetooth technology In the late 1990’s several tech companies all clubbed together and decided to use just one technology to allow all their different devices to communicate with each other. They named this new technology Bluetooth after a famous Viking, called Blatand or Bluetooth, because he had formed many alliances and connections all over the Arctic Circle and brought together many different tribes of the area. 3. Big Bertha These artillery pieces were known to be the biggest and most powerful of their time (First World War) sometimes propelling shells weighing up to 950 kilos. They were named after Bertha von Bohlen who was the head of the German arms manufacturing company, Krupp.
Leotard invented by gymnast.

BRITISH historical novelist Philippa Gregory, bestselling author of The Other Boleyn Girl and The White Princess brings readers the compelling story of Margaret Pole, daughter of George, Duke of Clarence, and one of the few surviving members of the Plantagenet dynasty, which ruled England for over three hundred years, from 1154 until 1485 and provided the country
with 14 of its kings. Released in 2004, this captivating story opens in 1499. England is ruled by Henry VII, who has two sons with Elizabeth of York. While this should secure his line, the court is filled to the brim with fear, suspicion and betrayal. Plantagenet is a perilous name to carry and heiress Margaret Pole is married off to a loyal Tudor supporter. However, her brother Edward’s claim just

Starbucks Today this is a multinational corporation so omnipresent that people joke about the frequency of their shops but when they started in 1970’s Seattle the three founders discovered that they all had the same favourite book: Moby Dick. They all wanted
Wellington Boots and a balaclava.
8. Balaclava During the Crimean War in 1854 the British soldiers were so cold that they started to fashion knitted goods to cover not just the top of their heads but their faces and these became known as Balaclava helmets after the region. They still exist today for everyone from bank robbers to skiers. 9. Field Marshal Fitzroy Somerset Somerset was the first Baron Raglan and lost an arm at the Battle of Waterloo which led him to request that his tailors make his shirts with the sleeves sewn separately and, often, reaching all the way to the neckline. The design eventually became known as Raglan sleeves which are very popular in a lot of modern sporting wear. 10. Molotov cocktails During the Winter War between the Soviet Union and Finland the Soviet minister, Vyacheslav Molotov, used propaganda to say the airforce was dropping humanitarian aid to the starving Finnish people. In fact they were being bombed. The Finnish, being low on weaponry but high on anger, then invented the bottle filled with petrol to throw at the Soviet troops, apparently, for them to have ‘something to drink’ with the ‘food parcels.’ The name stuck and is still being used today.

Another important exercise is the ‘send away’ to send the dog ahead of the handler. An easy way to teach the dog the send away is to hold your dog and get someone to put his food on one side of the room, then send the dog to his food from increasing distances away.
You and your dog can have fun with agility if it is timed correctly and provided you and your dog are ready to progress. In my opinion it is important to remember that a dog that is happy and enjoying himself, is much more likely to try hard to please his owner, than one who is afraid he is going to get told off for a mistake.

Obesity is one of the major factors in the development of insulin resistance, which can result in type 2 diabetes. Nearly 100 per cent of diabetes patients have type 2 diabetes, says WHO. Obesity makes cells more resistant to the effects of insulin making it more likely for people to develop diabetes. Other dangerous diseases or conditions related to obesity include heart disease, high cholesterol levels, cancer, back pain, infertility, ulcers, skin infections and gallstones.

Researchers from the Kanazawa Medical University in Japan also tested and compared bread and noodles, but the same link was not found. Rice is a high glycaemic index (GI) food which increases levels of a protein used to make serotonin which is known to induce sleep.

The truth is there are countless myths about shampooing, ranging from washing every day can be bad for your hair to shampooing being unnecessary as your hair will naturally begin with clean itself with time.

SHAMPOOING: Twice a week could be good enough. hair washing should be twice a week or when you feel your hair needs it,” said hair consultant Scott Cornwall. According to him, if you have very thick,
long and curly hair, it is enough to give your hair a good wash once a week as you are likely to spend a long time blow drying or styling.
However, Chairman of the Institute of Trichologists Marilyn Sherlock thinks otherwise. “Wash it every day. We wash our bodies every day and clean our teeth twice a day. Why should hair be any different,” she said. As stated by Sherlock, a daily wash is a good idea because of all the fumes from cars and pollution levels, but not in the case of African-Caribbean hair, which according to her is more porous and requires oiling. It should only be washed every two or three weeks so it will not break.

SAUSAGES IN WINE: One of the best tapas in Almeria.
Spain on a plate: Almeria THE gastronomy in the province of Almeria, Andalucia, is, as well as their own original dishes, a mixture of influences from the Granada Alpujarra region and the Murcia kitchen. One of the most popular dishes which is also served as a tapa in the bars is Jibia en salsa (cuttlefish in sauce). The cuttlefish is usually either boiled or grilled lightly and the sauce is made with a strong saffron influence and the juices from the fish - simple but very tasty. It is usually garnished with vegetables which have been boiled in the
sauce to make them tastier. Caballa con pimientos (mackerel with peppers) is another typical dish of the area and, as the name suggests, it consists of lightly grilled mackerel, just seasoned with salt, and roasted peppers with a very light yet full flavoured wine reduction sauce. Cazon en adobo (marinated dogfish) is one of the region’s favourite tapas and is just simply dogfish which has been marinated in a mix of vinegar, saffron, oregano, paprika, salt and water.
Just leave for a few hours then coat it with flour and deep fry. Serve with a lemon wedge or a little of the left over marinade. Salchichas al vino (sausages in wine) is another tapas bar favourite. This is sausages fried in olive oil and when they are nearly done onions and other vegetables are thrown in to absorb the flavour of the meat juices coming off the sausages and topped off with a healthy dash of wine - reduce and serve. Just remember to start off with good quality sausages.
EVERYONE knows cutting onions makes them cry but do they know it is a chemical reaction that happens when the inside of an onion is exposed to oxygen?

Spotlight on… Ivanildo Kembel at Joys Live HOW did you start as an entertainer? I started to sing when I was nine-years-old in church. I loved it so much that I continued and practised to become better at what I love. I sang in bands, started composing my own music, wrote songs for other singers, performed all over Holland in various shows and managed to make my living by entertaining. Three years ago I participated in The Voice of Holland and was successful. From that point on I was on a roller-coaster and my career as a solo performer got a huge boost. What do you love about performing on the Costa del Sol? The people are always in a good mood and having a good time so that gives me a lot of energy and makes it easy to
give the audience the entertainment they want to have. Who are your musical influences? Marvin Gay Boyz 2 Men Stevie Wonder Quincy Jones Ray Charles What makes performing at Joys Live so special ? There are no limits on the way I perform at Joys. I can do everything that comes to mind to entertain the audience.

The staff are great to work with and all the other singers and performers make me feel really welcome - and they are
really great to work with. Sharing the love for music and to give that love to the audience is the most wonderful thing to do. When I’m performing at ‘Performing Joys and feel at Joys Live the complete gives complete freedom of doing what I freedom of love to do doing what most, it I love most’ makes it very special for me.

Kitchen hacks to make life much easier THERE are several short cuts that can make life in the kitchen so much easier to deal with and they don’t even require very much effort. Here are some of the most useful. Peel a few large pieces of fresh ginger and break them into one inch square cubes then just place them in the freezer and take out as required. They can be grated from frozen to cut down on the amount of juice that they usually lose. Keep onions and garlic fresh by placing them in opaque paper bags with plenty of air holes punched in. If kept in plastic bags they will go mouldy within weeks - the punched holes in the paper bags allow air to circulate and keep them fresh for months. To prevent an open avocado from going brown either keep the stone in it or pour a capful of wine vinegar over the cut surface of the avocado - this reduces oxidation which is what makes it go brown.
FRESH ONIONS: Keep in a paper bag. Get perfectly shredded chicken without a fuss or scorched fingers by putting it in the food mixer just remember to use the paddle attachment and not the cutting
knives. After making mayonnaise, save leftover egg whites by pouring them into ice cube trays to be used at a later date.

BOTTLED WATER: Costs around 1,000 times more than tap water.
Say no to bottled water WHEN did we all become so scared of drinking tap water? Why do so many
people think that the water which flows from taps is dirty and that the
best water comes in plastic bottles from Mercadona? Basically the collective fear of tap water has been one of the most brilliant marketing strategies of recent history. Out of thin air the marketing gurus created a whole new market for a product that everyone was already getting at just a fraction of the price. In 2001, Susan
Wellington, president of the Quaker Oats beverage division (USA) was quoted as saying “By the time we’re done, tap water will be relegated to the shower and dishwasher.” She wasn’t far wrong. Europeans consume around 36.3 billion litres of bottled water every year - it is a massive industry - here are a few reasons to avoid the bottled water and go back to the tap. It’s probably tap water anyway. According to industry estimates, approximately 40 per cent of all bottled water in Europe comes from city and municipal water reserves. It’s not a green thing to drink bottled water as it takes three times as much water to make one plastic bottle as it does to fill it. Humans are consuming too much plastic and a lot of it is in the form of little, plastic water bottles which are turning up in seas and on beaches everywhere. Four out of five water bottles in Europe are made from nonrecyclable materials they just go into landfills when finished with. A plastic water bottle will outlive your grandchildren - it takes 1,000 years to biodegrade. Bottled water costs around 1,000 times the price of tap water. You probably can’t taste the difference anyway.

SPANISH ECONOMY: Showing hopeful signs of recovery.
Spain’s economy showing signs of recovery WHILE it is true that the Euro crisis sent shockwaves throughout many countries in the old continent, there is no denying that few if any were hit as hard as Spain. Not only did the value of its property market take a significant nosedive, but also the level of interest from investors began plummeting after the outbreak of the crisis in early 2009. However, this may well be the right time to start investing again in properties in Spain thanks to some positive market trends witnessed so far this year. It was not that long ago that Spain’s property market was in a boom, with real estate and construction accounting for 18 per cent of the country’s gross domestic product. In 2007 there was a €30 billion market cap, but now this has dropped to merely 10 per cent of that. The good news is that the Spanish economy is showing hopeful signs of recovery, with Spain’s stock market in an upward trend for the last 18 months and banks beginning to offload their assets. Furthermore, 2014 has seen strong listings from investment trusts. For instance, Merlin Properties REIT raised €1.2 billion in June. Even though this
was a little bit far from the company’s hopes to raise €1.5 billion, it still goes to show that the market is gaining strength back. In fact, the signs of recovery have been reason enough for a number of high-profile investors and fund managers to display interest in the Spanish real-estate market. Stuart Mitchell, the founder of SW Mitchell and SWMC European fund manager, has expressed optimism about the future of investment in various Spanish companies, including Sacyr Vallehermoso. Mitchell is also said to be interested in Banco Popular and Santander now that there seems to be light at the end of the tunnel. The signs are promising but the country’s recovery is still at its early stages. Rowe Price’s European Portfolio Manager Dean Tenerelli is aware of this and offers cautious, albeit optimistic advice to investors looking to capitalise on Spain’s realestate sector. “At this early stage it is important to identify high-quality companies that can sustainably grow and deliver high return on capital as Spain’s rental market matures,” he said.

CONSTRUCTION SECTOR: Led bankruptcies in Spain in last six years.
Construction sector leads bankruptcies TWENTY-FIVE per cent of the companies that went into bankruptcy in the second quarter of 2014 were construction companies. According to recent data from the National Statistics Institute (INE), even though the number of companies that filed for bankruptcy between April and July dropped by 30 per cent, 25 per cent of them were construction companies and the sector has led bankruptcies in Spain for the
last six years. Out of the 9,143 companies that went bankrupt in Spain in 2013, 2,430 were engaged in the construction sector. However, the number has declined when compared to 2012, when the number of companies closing was 2,487. Since the outbreak of the crisis, 11,227 realestate related businesses have closed their doors, which represents an annual average 10 times
higher than the 148 companies that went bankrupt in the sevenyear period between 2000 and 2007, according to idealista.com. Around 42,011 Spanish companies have disappeared since the turn of the century and 12,413 were real estate agencies, while 8,994 were industrial companies. In other words, more than 50 per cent of the total number of closures came from these two sectors.

LUXURY PROPERTIES: Stable prices in the last six months.
Prices in Spain’s luxury real-estate market stable
P
ROPERTY prices in Spain’s luxury real-estate market have remained stable in the last two quarters. The number of transactions has seen a substantial increase throughout all regions and the gap between sales and asking prices is still narrowing, according to the latest figures from Spanish realestate agency Lucas Fox. Foreign investors account for nearly 100 per cent of Lucas Fox sales and the interest from clients from the Middle East and the Far East continues to increase. Moreover, investors from Northern European countries have been lured back to Spain’s real-estate market by bargain prices and good investment opportunities. According to Lucas Fox, there was a steady sales upturn between January and June when compared to the same six-month period in 2013. Though investors from Northern Europe and the UK are still at the forefront of the renewed interest in Spain’s real-estate market, the truth is that the interest from non-European investors, especially from the Middle and the Far East, has continued to gain momentum. Lucas Fox reportedly generates 30
offers per month and two out of every three turn into sales. On the other hand, the average price for prime properties between April and June was €4,237 per square metre. Now there is more confidence among buyers, especially international buyers and the market in Barcelona has kept improving since the beginning of the year, said Alexander Vaughan from Lucas Fox. Prices seem to have stabilised and the number of transactions is growing at a slow pace. The main difference now is that sellers are more realistic and the prices they are asking for are more in line with expectations from buyers, he added. As stated by Lucas Fox, the residential market in Ibiza is still booming and the number of transactions has seen a sizable increase when compared to 2013. Furthermore, demand exceeds supply thus increasing the prices of premium properties in some areas. Most buyers interested on the island’s prime market properties come from Northern European countries and the UK, but the number of investors from the United States has doubled in the last 12 months.

Herb infusions can improve your diet and health
Dick Handscombe
Gardening Corner By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.
Y
EAR by year, as I age towards 80, I realise that many of the villagers that reach 95 and even 100 in our valley, and worldwide, have eaten and drank herbs as infusions on a regular basis, including rose hips and olive leaves. Perhaps even more important, as coastal cities have grown and become hubs of pollution, has been the quality of air that one can still inhale in mountain valleys. Air scented heavily with the evaporated oils of herbs like rosemary, lavender and thyme. And 20 per cent of that air is the vital oxygen that we take in via our lungs every second of our lives night and day. Indeed, although we rarely look at it this way, for many oxygen is a very major ingredient in our Mediterranean diets. Typically 300 to 400 grammes a day, and plants eat it too. In a polluted environment pollutants can create a strain on the lungs and the heart. Long term this can cause unwanted chronic deceases. In a garden environment where beneficial aromatic plants have been planted wisely the evaporated natural oils in the air can be of added benefit. Plants that create natural aromatherapy effects include aromatic herbs such as lavender, sage,
HEALTHY: Mountain living is good for you. rosemary, thyme, lemon verbena, perfumed roses, citrus trees, pine trees and eucalyptus. The figure of 400 grammes of oxygen a day is for a moderate level of physical activity. Heavy pruning and sawing during the winter cutback, the digging of planting holes, the preparing of the soil for the planting of vegetables, the digging planting holes for trees or a strenuous walk in the mountains with major climbs can significantly increase one’s ingestion of oxygen to half a kilo or more a day. Even on a balanced diet, with 50 per cent or more of ecologically grown and processed fruits and vegetables of raw live energy, the proportion of oxygen in the diet is significant. I suspect that this is something that most of us rarely think about whether enthusiastic or reluctant gardeners.
So do preserve and improve the quality of the air in your gardens not just with plants but also by minimising spraying with insecticides and fungicides and when you have to use
them use only ecological ones. Bottles of neem oil, propolis in alcohol, garlic and eco potassium soap or washing up liquid will deal with almost all problems
except for the weevils attacking palm trees and agaves.
© Dick Handscombe www.gardenspain.com September 2014
My calculations if you wish to check ONE litre of liquid oxygen weighs 1.14 kilos. One litre of liquid oxygen requires 861 litres of gaseous oxygen. If one walks slowly, gardens gently or calmly does housework, one inhales around 20 litres of air per minute which adds up to 28,800 litres a day.Air includes 21 per cent of oxygen so we breathe in some 6,048 litres of gaseous oxygen per day which is equal to 7.02 litres of liquid oxygen which would weigh eight kilos. When air is drawn into our lungs and then exhaled we absorb around 5 per cent of the oxygen into our blood stream. This weighs around 400 grammes a day.

Premiere of all-new Volvo XC90 marks new chapter MONTHS of speculation ended after Volvo Cars unveiled its all-new Volvo XC90. The manufacturer says it has delivered on a promise to introduce a visually striking, premium quality seven-seat SUV with world-leading safety features, new powertrain technologies, an unrivalled combination of power and fuel efficiency and a superlative interior finish. Three years in the making and part of an €8.34-billion investment programme, the new XC90 marks the beginning
of a new chapter in Volvo’s history, capturing its future design direction, incorporating its own range of new technologies and utilising its new Scalable Product Architecture (SPA) technology. “This is one of the most important days in our history. We are not just launching a car, but relaunching our brand. This day marks a new era. “The XC90 paves the way for a portfolio of exciting new cars to come in the future,” said Håkan Samuelsson, President and CEO of Volvo Car Group.
The car will be the first from Volvo to carry the company’s new, more prominent, iron mark, which has the iconic arrow aligned with the diagonal slash across the grille. Together with the Tshaped Thor’s Hammer DRL lights, the iron mark introduces a new, distinctive and confident face for Volvo’s forth-coming generation of cars. The XC90’s larger bonnet with its new topography, the beltline and the sharpened shoulders connecting with the tattoo-like, new rear lights are other important
design signatures that will be mirrored across the range. To add more visual muscle from the sides, the XC90 comes with a range of wheel sizes up to 22 inches.
