EDITORIAL As you know, The Resident generally concentrates on local news, information and events as there are plenty of other sources for more general news, but I’d just like to take this opportunity to add my heartfelt congratulations to all those involved in the dramatic rescue this week of the 33 Chilean miners. In these days of global terrorism, conflict and economic woe, it is such a pleasant change to have a good news story of such magnitude, maybe there’s hope for us yet.

With just over 6 months now until next year’s local elections the political machinery of the local parties is beginning to crank up a gear, with new offices being fitted out and campaigns swinging into action, the circus is well and truly coming to town! The Resident has always adopted a neutral stance politically and we plan to maintain this throughout the coming months, providing an opportunity for all the parties to put across their message and publishing all the information necessary for you to make an informed choice come the 22nd May, 2011.

Now that the summer is over it is time to knuckle down to business, and with this in mind the local business association ACEMCE is organising a networking meeting which will be held at the H2O bar in Puerto de la Duquesa on Thursday, November 4 from 8 am to 10 am. The meeting is a great opportunity to make new contacts and share experiences and information on the local business scene and follows the success of previous events and will be open to both members and non-members. For more information contact ACEMCE on 952 936 198 or email info@acemce.es.

October is a big month for the local golf scene with the Benahavis Senior Masters being contested as we go to press and Valderrama hosting the Andalucia Masters at the end of month. This is the last European Tour match to be played in Europe before the ‘Race to Dubai’ decamps for points East. It proves to be an exciting tournament with all eyes on the German, Martin Kaymer, as he challenges Tiger Wood’s Number 1 ranking, denying Lee Westwood the honour. The Resident will be covering the event so keep an eye on our website www.theresident.es and our Facebook page www. facebook.com/TheResident.Spain for news and pictures.

Well that’s enough from me for now, I hope you enjoy this month’s issue, and I look forward to next month’s little chat.

Best regards - Ed

Como saben el periódico The Resident generalmente se dedica y se concentra en noticias, información y eventos locales, ya que hay otras fuentes donde informan de noticias generales, pero me gustaría aprovechar esta oportunidad para dar mi enhorabuena a todos aquellos que han participado en el dramático rescate esta semana de los 33 mineros chilenos. En estos días de tanto terrorismo mundial, conflictos y problemas económicos, es de un gran placer dar buenísimas noticias de tal magnitud, ¡probablemente haya esperanza para nosotros todavía!

Con tan solo aproximadamente 6 meses para las próximas elecciones locales, la maquinaria política de los partidos políticos locales están a punto de ponerse en marcha, abriendo nuevas sedes y poniendo en acción sus campañas publicitarias.

El periódico The Resident siempre ha adoptado una política neutral y lo mantendremos así en los meses venideros, dando la oportunidad para todos aquellos partidos políticos de poder expresar sus mensajes y de publicar toda la información necesaria para que tengamos la oportunidad de informarnos y elegir el próximo 22 de Mayo de 2011.

Ahora que el verano está terminado, es la hora de dedicarnos por completo a los negocios, y con ésto en mente, la asociación local de negocios ACEMCE está organizando un encuentro, el cual tendrá lugar en el bar H2O del Puerto de la Duquesa, el jueves 4 de Noviembre de 8 a 10 de la mañana. Este encuentro es una gran oportunidad para hacer nuevos contactos y compartir experiencias e información sobre los negocios locales y siguiendo el éxito de otros eventos anteriores estará abierto para socios y para no socios. Para más información contacten con ACEMCE en el teléfono 952 936 198 ó por correo electrónico infor@ acemce.es.

El mes de Octubre es un gran mes para el golf con Benahavís Senior Masters y Valderrama con Andalucia Masters a final de este mes. Este es el último torneo Europeo celebrado antes de “Race to Dubai”. Se cree que será un gran torneo con todos los ojos puestos en el alemán Martin Kaymer que reta a Tiger Wood, número 1 en el ranking, dejando a Lee Westwood en ese honor. The Resident cubrirá el evento, así pues manténgase informado en nuestra página web www.theresident.es y en nuestra página de Facebook www.facebook.com/TheResident.

Spain para manteneros informados y para ver fotografías.

Bueno, eso es todo por mi parte, espero que disfrutéis de la edición de este mes, y estoy deseando ya de la pequeña charla del mes siguiente.

Saludos- Ed

Los más de cinco mil extranjeros residentes en San Roque tendrán una oficina para atenderles Los más de cinco mil extranjeros residentes censados en San Roque tendrán una oficina municipal para atenderles y asesorarles en cuestiones relacionadas con la administración. La Oficina estará ubicada en la tenencia de alcaldía de Guadiaro, aunque una vez en semana se trasladará al casco de San Roque.

Este nuevo servicio municipal ha sido presentado recientemente por el alcalde, Fernando Palma, que ha estado acompañado por el tte de alcalde de zona, Juan Roca, y el coordinador de Turismo, Carlos Jordan.

En la actualidad, de los alrededor de 30 mil habitantes censados en San Roque, un 17 % son extranjeros. A ellos hay que sumarles los muchos extranjeros que residen parcialmente en nuestro municipio, aunque no están censados aquí.

Para ellos está destinado este nuevo servicio municipal, que pretende facilitar a los extranjeros “su estancia en nuestro país y en nuestro municipio”.

Asuntos como “notaría, servicios médicos, empadronamiento, elecciones, vivienda, bodas civiles, y otras cuestiones que en el resto de Europa no es igual que en España”.

El alcalde calificó como “un hito en la historia de San Roque esta Oficina del Extranjero, por cuanto podremos atender, en español, inglés alemán e italiano, a los

residentes para que se sientan a gusto en nuestro municipio”.

La mayoría de estos 5000 residentes v¡ven en la zona norte, donde son casi el 40 % de la población, por ello es que la instalación de la Oficina será en esta zona.

Desde la Oficina se facilitarán Trámites Directos como empadronamiento, Gestión Tributaria, GMU, EMROQUE, Infraestructuras, Obras y Servicios, Policía Local, OMIC, AMDEL, Educación,

Participación Ciudadana, Asuntos Sociales, ARCGISA,etc.

Asimismo, se facilitará información de Servicios e Infraestructuras relacionadas con Turismo, Cultura, Bibliotecas, Fiestas y Juventud, Deportes, Playas, Universidad Popular, Multimedia, Archivos, etc.

Con estas acciones se pretende acercar el Ayuntamiento al ciudadano extranjero; mejorar la imagen del Ayuntamiento entre los residentes foráneos; maximizar la

participación de los residentes extranjeros en la vida municipal y social, y facilitar las relaciones entre los ciudadanos foráneos y la Administración Pública.

Igualmente, se quiere mejorar y acortar los procesos o plazos de trámites burocráticos; informarles de sus derechos y deberes como residentes; e informarles de las ventajas de estar empadronados y cómo contribuye directa e indirectamente al bienestar del municipio en general.

Según los Datos del Padrón Municipal del año 2010, el número total de residentes extranjeros empadronados en el municipio de San Roque era de 5145 personas de 85 nacionalidades distintas. Suponen casi un 17% de la población total.

En el Distrito Guadiaro era de 3390 personas de 67 nacionalidades distintas. Suponen casi un 37,6 % de la población total.

El número total de residentes extranjeros empadronados en San Roque Centro era de 964 personas de 45 nacionalidades distintas.

Suponen casi un 8,4 % de la población.

Población total: 11399 personas.

En el Distrito Bahía era de 571 personas de 42 nacionalidades distintas. Suponen un poco más del 13,4 % de la población.

Población total: 4351 personas.

En el Distrito Interior era de 373 personas de 32 nacionalidades distintas. Suponen casi el 6,5% de la población.

Foreign residents in San Roque now have an office at the Town Hall More than five thousand foreign residents registered at San Roque Town Hall will have a council office at their disposal to attend to them and get advice about bureaucratic procedures. This office will be located in the Deputy Mayor’s Office in the village of Guadiaro, although once a week this service will also be offered in San Roque town centre.

This new municipal service was presented recently by the Mayor of San Roque, Fernando Palma, with the backing of Deputy Mayor for the District of Guadiaro, Juan Roca and the Coordinator for Tourism, Carlos Jordan, the person in charge of this service.

At present, about 17% of San Roque’s 30,000 officially-registered inhabitants are foreigners. In addition to these figures, a large number of foreigners could be added that live part of the time in the municipality, but have not yet registered.

This new council service is being implemented to cater for them, “to make their life easier during their residence in our country and our municipality.”

Issues such as “notary offices, medical services, registering on the census, elections, housing, getting married through the registy office or council and regarding other matters that in the rest of Europe are different to Spain.”

The Mayor described this foreigners’ office as “a milestone in the history of San Roque, due to the fact we will able to attend to people’s demands in Spanish, English, German and Italian, enabling residents to really feel at home in our borough.”

Most of the 5,000 residents live in the Guadiaro District, where almost 40% of the population are foreigners, this is why the office is going to be located in this area.

Direct procedures can be carried out from this office related to registering on the census, Council Tax, Town Planning, Housing, Public Works, Local Police, Consumer Information, Local Employment and Development, Education, Associations and Charities, Social Services, Water

Company services, etc.

In addition, information will be supplied to residents about the local facilities and council services for Tourism, Culture, Libraries, Festivities & Youth, Sport, Beaches, Comunitity College, Local Radio and Television, Historical Archives, etc.

The aim of these initiatives is to bring San Roque Borough Council closer to foreign residents; improve the image of the Town Hall amongst foreign residents; maximize the involvement of foreign residents in public and social life, and make relations easier between foreign citizens and the Government.

Likewise, the aim is to improve and shorten procedures and deadlines for bureaucratic procedures; give information about foreigners’ rights and obligations as residents; give them information on the advantages of being registered on the census and how they can contribute directly and indirectly benefit the municipality in general.

5,145 people of 85 different nationalities.

Esta es la postura desde el Ayuntamiento de Manilva. adoptada por la AlcaldĂ­a y la delegaciĂłn municipal de Infraestructuras y Obras del Ayuntamiento de Manilva ante la actitud de la Junta de AndalucĂ­a.

Entre los daĂąos registrados en el municipio de Manilva durante el pasado invierno, uno de los mĂĄs importantes, por la peligrosidad que con llevaba, segĂşn ha explicado el concejal de Infraestructuras, Mario JimĂŠnez, fue el desprendimiento registrado en la zona norte de la carretera A-377.

Por tal motivo, en este tiempo se han remitido al departamento de ConservaciĂłn de Carreteras de la ConsejerĂ­a de Obras PĂşblicas hasta tres escritos solicitando tanto una inspecciĂłn tĂŠcnica de la situaciĂłn de la vĂ­a como el arreglo propiamente dicho.

SegĂşn JimĂŠnez, desde la Junta se argumenta que esa vĂ­a no es competencia de la administraciĂłn regional, algo que discuten

Por todo ello, esta misma semana se ha enviado un Ăşltimo escrito a la Junta en el que se anuncia que se adoptarĂĄn las medidas legales oportunas si no se obtiene resultado positivo por parte de la administraciĂłn regional, ya que segĂşn explica JimĂŠnez, mantener la carretera A-377 en la situaciĂłn actual significa poner en peligro la vida de personas que circulen por ella, bien a pie, bien en vehĂ­culo, algo que no se puede consentir desde el Ayuntamiento de Manilva.

Amongst the damage caused by last winterâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s extraordinary weather conditions was the collapse of part of the road at the roundabout on the A-377 to the north of Manilva Town, which has left the road in a dangerous condition.

Despite numerous correspondence with the Ministry of Public Works requesting a technical inspection and repair works, no action has

been carried out with the regional government arguing that the road is not its responsibility and is a matter for the local authorities.

As a result the Manilva Town Hall has issued an ultimatum that if no positive action is forthcoming it will take legal action against the Junta.

Mario JimĂŠnez, Manilvaâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s Councillor for Infrastructure, stated that to leave the road in this state means endangering the lives of both drivers and pedestrians, and is unacceptable to the Manilva authorities.

La obra de teatro Hamlet estará en Manilva El municipio de Manilva está de enhorabuena ya que disfrutará del estreno de una de las más grandes obras de la literatura universal “Hamlet Príncipe de Dinamarca” de William Shakespeare.

La colaboración de la Delegación de Cultura con la compañía Roma Teatro Estudio ha hecho posible que la localidad sea particípe de un estreno internacional de esta afamada obra.

Esta Delegación ha facilitado a la citada compañía y sus actores el lugar de ensayo perfecto, el monumento del Castillo de la Duquesa, además de algunos materiales para su representación. Así se ha podido conseguir que esta obra de teatro pueda ser estrenada en nuestra localidad.

Durante todos estos días y así desde hace varias semanas el Monumento del Castillo se ha convertido en un improvisado escenario donde, con la gran colaboración de nuestro profesor de esgrima, Alberto Cerrada, como director de escena, se estáhaciendo posible esta magnífica obra.

De todos es conocida la trayectoria de Alberto Cerrada, ha dado clases de esgrima a Viggo Mortensen, Manuel Banderas, etc.… y participado como maestro de esgrima en películas como “Alatriste” y

“El Tuno negro”, obras como “El zorro” o “Los tres mosqueteros” y en series muy conocidas “Arrayán” o “Un paso adelante”.

Esta obra, que será llevada por toda la geografía española y europea, cuenta con la participación del famoso actor Carlos Santos, de todos conocidos en su papel de Povedilla en la serie “Los hombres de Paco” y que ha participado en varias películas entre ellas “Fuga de Cerebros”, “Mortadelo y Filemón 2”, “El tuno negro” y más recientemente en la presentada al certamen de los Oscar “También la lluvia”, y que hará el papel de Hamlet.

ACHES and PAINS What is pain?

It is an attention grabbing message which travels to the brain along our nerves and our nerves are all safely embedded within our body’s muscles.

What causes pain? Pain has just 3 causes.

A nerve is; 1) diseased, 2) injured or 3) it is being squashed.

If you are not diseased and not injured but still you have pain, then your nerves are being squashed by your own seizing muscles.

When seizing muscles tighten, they squeeze our nerves and we ache.

When muscles seize, they squash our nerves and we feel pain.

But the GOOD NEWS is SEIZED MUSCLES CAN BE CURED

CRAMP, TINGLES, NUMBNESS,VARICOSE VEINS These are all signs of seized muscles squashing our blood vessels and causing an interrupted blood supply.

Our 100,000km or 60,000 miles of blood vessels, both arteries and veins all exist safely embedded within our muscles’ fibres. When our muscles seize and tighten then our veins are squeezed upwards to the muscle’s surface, creating “varicose veins” and our arteries become squashed deep inside, restricting our blood supply and causing it to slow.

And the GOOD NEWS is VARICOSE VEINS CAN BE CURED When an artery is being squashed and blood flow reduced, we experience “numbness” in our arms, hands, legs and feet as they, lacking in blood, “go to sleep”. When the blood comes flooding back then we get the “tingling” of “pins and needles” as the area refills with blood.

What Causes Cramp?

When one seized muscle completely squashes an artery, stopping the blood flow then the following muscle, the “next one in sequence” for the blood, is “starved of blood”. It goes into “spasm”, it “cramps”.

The Muscle Renewal System is unique and it works.

El Ayuntamiento desbloquea la cesión Una competición exitosa que supone de una parcela en Parque Central para la una pequeña ayuda para ADANA construcción del nuevo Mercado de Abastos Mas de 80 perros participaron en el XX

El Alcalde, David Valadez, y el concejal delegado de Comercio, Sergio López, se han reunido hoy con la empresa propietaria de la promoción de viviendas de Parque Central, a fin de desbloquear el acuerdo suscrito en el año 2002 para la cesión de locales comerciales en la “Parque Central” con destino al nuevo Mercado Municipal de Abastos, y contribución económica para su acondicionamiento.

El alcalde, David Valadez, ha mostrado su satisfacción por el desbloqueo de dicho acuerdo, en los mismos términos que incluía en su día: • Cesión gratuita de locales y todos los tributos y gastos derivados de la cesión, a cargo de la entidad cedente.

• Los locales se cederán libres de toda carga o gravamen, arrendatarios u ocupantes.

• La superficie neta de los locales a ceder es de 800 m2.

• Los locales se cederán en el estado en que se encuentren, una vez acabada la

construcción de los edificios (en bruto).

• Los locales serán seleccionados conjuntamente por la empresa propietaria y el Ayuntamiento, de entre los que forman parte de los edificios.

• La empresa propietaria contribuirá con 60.000,00 € para el acondicionamiento de los locales.

Por su parte, Sergio López, ha manifestado que los locales se cederán en dos fases, a razón de 400 m2, y que el ayuntamiento procederá la próxima semana a iniciar los estudios técnicos y el proyecto para adaptar los locales al nuevo uso. El edil confía en que las instalaciones estén concluídas para marzo del próximo año.

El edil de Comercio ya ha dado traslado de esta circunstancia a los actuales adjudicatarios de los puestos del actual Mercado, quienes se han mostrado optimistas ante la noticia.

El nuevo Mercado Municipal de Abastos sustituirá al actual, situado en pleno casco antiguo de la localidad, que data de 1949.

Concurso de ADANA. Los asistentes adultos superaron la cifra de 300 y la mayoria venia acompañada de sus hijos, cuya entrada era gratuita. Pinchar aqui para descargar foto ganador.

“Tenemos muchos motivos para celebrar el Concurso Canino que tuvo lugar el pasado día 19 de Septiembre en el Palacio de Congresos de Estepona”.

Hubo una fuerte participación en las competiciónes divididas en 20 Categorías.

El alcalde de Estepona, David Valadéz, fue el encargado de entregar el premio a los ganadores de las classes “Favoritos del Jurado” y “Mejor en Espectáculo” cuyos vencedores tienen nombre propio y son además perros que fueron adoptados en ADANA por sus actuales propietarios, como el bóxer llamado Roxy de Kyle Morrison y la perrita Dolly de Marilyn Trendell.

“Fue un día maravilloso”, dijo David McNally, el responsable de la organización del evento. “Creemos haber recaudado más de 5,000€ lo que representa un nuevo récord. La actuación ha sido igualmente atractiva para los perros y para los espectadores. Estamos muy agradecidos al Ayuntamiento por el apoyo facilitado y

a los patrocinadores y voluntarios que han transformado este evento en un enorme éxito”.

20th ADANA Dog Show a Great Success ADANA, the animal rescue charity, has plenty of reasons to celebrate their 20th Annual Dog Show which took place on 19 Sept in the Palacio de Congresos, Estepona. Over 300 adults attended plus hoards of children who did not have to pay so were not officially counted. There was stiff competition in all 20 classes.

The Mayor of Estepona, David Valadéz, presented prizes to the winners of the Judges’ Favourite class and to the Best in Show which was won by a wonderful ex ADANA dog – a boxer named Roxy, (see

photo).

“It was a wonderful day “, said David McNally, the show organiser. “ It looks like we will have raised over 5,000€ which is a new record. The venue is wonderful for dogs and spectators alike and we are very grateful for the support given to us by the Town Hall and all our sponsors and volunteers who made the show such a great success”.

Photos of the event by Piet Scholten are on the web site www.adana.es

The lecture season runs from October till May.

The lecturers are experts in their fields and are selected from the NADFAS accredited directory and the programme is designed to be wide ranging and interesting. Many of the lectures this season have a distinctly English theme, with a whiff of scandal accompanying plenty of great art.

20th October Lady Hamilton - Scandal, Celebrity and Art Dr. Kate Williams: Historian, lecturer, TV presenter and author of two acclaimed biographies.

The remarkable story of how Emma Hamilton ascended the ranks of British Society, from courtesan and model to ambassadress, fashion icon and mistress of Lord Nelson.

17th November 2010 Horses, Women and Architecture - The Life and Loves of William Cavendish Dr. Lucy Worsley: Chief Curator, Historic Royal Palaces, lecturer, TV presenter and author.

William Cavendish, the first Duke of Newcastle, was courageous and cultured.

His passions were architecture, horses and women. Dr. Worsley gives us a vivid portrait of a seventeenth-century nobleman and the dramatic decades surrounding the English Civil War. She describes the great houses that Cavendish built and recreates the cacophony, stink, ceremony and splendour of his stately homes and their inhabitants.

OtoĂąo

Estimados socios y amigos: Una nueva estaciĂłn del aĂąo acaba de comenzar. Nos ha abandonado el bullicioso verano, acompaĂąado del griterĂ­o y las risas de los niĂąos, los juegos al aire libre, el caliente sol de la Costa, los desarreglos alimentarios y el contacto de nuestros cuerpos con el agua del mar o la piscina y el relax. A ese bello tiempo del entretenimiento lo continĂşa una suerte de â&#x20AC;&#x153;puenteâ&#x20AC;? con el crudo y frĂ­o invierno: EL OTOĂ&#x2018;O. Esta estaciĂłn es muy importante desde el punto de vista mĂŠdico. ÂżPor quĂŠ? Precisamente por tratarse de UN PERĂ?ODO DE TRANSICIĂ&#x201C;N. AquĂ­ todo es impredecible, sobre todo EL CLIMA. Es posible que salgamos de casa por la maĂąana, con buen sol y una temperatura agradable, y regresemos por la tarde o la noche, con llovizna, viento y frio. Estos cambios climĂĄticos son aprovechados por las bacterias y los virus para atacarnos. Es por ello que debemos oponerles nuestra â&#x20AC;&#x153;baterĂ­a defensivaâ&#x20AC;?, la cual serĂĄ INTERNA Y EXTERNA. La interna consiste en reforzar nuestro aparato inmunolĂłgico mediante la ingestiĂłn de POLIVITAMĂ?NICOS, que naturalmente, debemos pedir a nuestro medico. TambiĂŠn la dieta debe ser â&#x20AC;&#x153;sanaâ&#x20AC;?, a base, sobre todo, de frutas y verduras ricas en VITAMINA C, licopenos, carotenos, minerales, etcĂŠtera. En este grupo,

los mĂĄs importantes son el pomelo, la naranja y el kiwi, que pueden ingerirse exprimidos (zumos) o sĂłlidos. Esto nos prevendrĂĄ de las gripes e influenzas comunes, que junto a la vacunaciĂłn polivalente es una buena manera de estar preparados para la estaciĂłn invernal. La defensa externa consiste en todo lo que podamos hacer para prevenir los cambios bruscos de temperatura corporal, ya sea mediante el uso de abrigos, y no olvidarnos de tener siempre un paraguas a mano para evitar mojaduras imprevistas. Las enfermedades mĂĄs comunes del otoĂąo son los RESFRIADOS, LAS NEUMONĂ?AS, BRONQUITIS Y TONSILITIS. TambiĂŠn el deshoje de los ĂĄrboles arrastra pĂłlenes, que provocaran RINITIS VASOMOTORAS DE TIPO ALERGICO, CORIZA, CRISIS DE ESTORNUDOS Y CONJUNTIVITIS. TambiĂŠn la piel puede ser afectada, produciĂŠndose ECCEMAS e irritaciones indeseables. ÂĄPor favor tomad todas las precauciones necesarias y ABRIGAOS bien! ÂĄQue tengĂĄis un OTOĂ&#x2018;O saludable y seguro!

Un cordial saludo, Dr. Haroldo Miguel Forcillo Medical Director SOS MĂŠdicos 24HS

Autumn Dear members and friends: A new season of the year has just started. The lively summer has abandoned us, accompanied by the kids shouting and laughing, the games outdoors, the hot sun of the Costa and the cool, relaxing contact of our bodies with the water in the pool and the sea. This beautiful season of enjoyment will be followed by a gentle â&#x20AC;&#x153;bridgeâ&#x20AC;? to the cruel and cold winter: called THE AUTUMN. This season is very important from a medical point of view. Why? Because itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s a TRANSITION PERIOD. Here, all is unpredictable, especially the WEATHER. It is possible to come out of our house in the morning, with nice sunshine and a pleasant temperature, and when we come back in the evening or at night, it can be raining, the wind might be blowing and, itâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s COLD! These climate changes are taken as an advantage by bacteria and viruses, to attack us.

That is why we should put our own â&#x20AC;&#x153;defensive bacteriaâ&#x20AC;? in opposition, to defend us, both INTERNALLY AND EXTERNALLY. Our internal defences should be strengthening our immune systems through the ingestion of MULTIVITAMINS, that naturally, we need to ask our doctor about. Also our diet has to be â&#x20AC;&#x153;healthyâ&#x20AC;?. Being especially rich in fruit and vegetables with VITAMIN C, lycopenes, carotenes, minerals, etc. In this group, some of the most beneficial are, grapefruit, orange and kiwi, that can be digested in solid form or squeezed (as juices).

These things will help to protect us from â&#x20AC;&#x153;fluâ&#x20AC;? or common influenza, and together with the multivalent vaccination are a good method of being prepared for the winter season. Our external defenses can be more effective by taking all possible precautions to prevent sudden changes of body temperature, that is, using coats and don´t forget to always carry an umbrella to deal with sudden downpours to prevent

getting soaked. Remember, the most common illnesses in autumn are COLDS, PNEUMONIA, BRONCHITIS AND TONSILITIS. Also the leaves from the defoliation of trees carry pollen that can cause VASOMOTOR RHINITIS OF THE ALLERGIC TYPE, CORYZA, SNEEEZING ATTACKS AND CONJUCTIVITIS. Also your skin can be damaged, producing ECZEMAS and unwanted rashes. Please take all the precautions you can and WRAP UP WARMLY! Have a safe and healthy Autumn.

Age Concern, Estepona and Manilva, has been working with older people n the community for some eight years.

In 2004 we opened our charity shop in Calle Zaragoza Estepona with the next objective being to open a Drop in Centre where older people can come for information and advice, social contact, and enhancing their knowledge and skills base.

Age Concern is delighted to announce that a lease has now been signed on a local in Estepona where such a centre will open shortly. This will comprise a kitchen, store room, office and Centre. Full details of the actual location, opening hours etc will be announced shortly.

In order for this Centre to be a success volunteers will be needed to run it â&#x20AC;&#x201C; opening hours will depend on the number of volunteers available. If you would like to help in this exciting new venture please contact Eileen on 608458555 or email tonyaldous55@yahoo.co.uk. Training will be given.

Oh - and another thing â&#x20AC;&#x201C; Age Concern has to furnish the Centre. Anyone, either individual or Company, who would like to donate items (for example a set of tables and chairs), please contact us as given above.

Talk on Strokes Age Concern is holding an open meeting on Thursday 25th November, in the sala de prensa at Padre Manuel, Estepona, on strokes. Dr. Sageur from Hospiten has kindly agreed to give a talk and answer questions. This is an important meeting as recognising the signs of a person having a stroke is the first step in saving that personâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s life.

The meeting starts at 20.00 and will end by 22.00. There is no need to register â&#x20AC;&#x201C; just come along and bring a friend.

San Pedro Lunch Volunteers working for Age Concern in the San Pedro area have regular lunches and one was held recently with invited guests and also Friends of Age Concern. Three of the guests were over 90 years of age and enjoyed a lovely meal with good company and conversation. After the meal the President of Age Concern, Eileen Dry, received a very generous donation from Adel, who works in the Thrift Shop (Baratillo Benefico) in San Pedro, of 1000â&#x201A;Ź. This donation will go towards the equipping of the new Drop In Centre that will be opening shortly in Estepona.

Lifeline For elderly people who require help or advice Age Concern operate a telephone service called Lifeline. This gives the individual a direct point of contact with the charity. The telephone number is 650163928. It should be noted that Age Concern is not an emergency service. There is also an email address where you can contact Age Concern, Estepona and Manilva. It is acesteponaymanilva@ ageconcern-espana.org and why not tune into our web site at www.acesteponaymanilva.org?

Costa Advice Bureau Leaving the family home in Spain? You may be committing a crime Have you or your partner discussed separation or divorce? European residents in Spain should take into account the strict laws relating to the abandonment of the family home primarily where children or incapacitated persons are involved. Partners should both abide by the penal code. If this is not the case and following thirty successive days, this absence will be considered as desertion. This is a crime and punishable by law. In the most serious cases this could mean being served with a prison sentence.

Do not just leave the house in the belief that you are legally separated. There are legal procedures that you should adhere to such as the adequate payment of maintenance.

Even if the separation is amicable with your partner’s acknowledgement be careful, if you do not meet your responsibilities he or she has the right to report you. Again should you leave after taking all the legal steps necessary and miss two months consecutive or four months of intermittent payments, your partner can take you to court. All these risks can be avoided by pursuing the correct legal channels. Anyone seeking more detailed information should contact us.

Avoidance of Inheritance tax and gifts I am constantly being asked the question “If I bequeath my property to my children as a gift can I avoid taxes”? The answer to this is a positive no. You will probably find that in fact the costs to your beneficiaries will

be more costly than a normal succession.

Spanish law on heritage, and especially in Andalucía, allows for many reductions in these taxes. Avoid listening to the rumours and scaremongering. If you are concerned we can present you with a full report on your tax duties. This will be a calculation subject to each individual’s circumstances.

The simple act of registering your vehicle in Spain If you thought this was a straightforward process but have put off implementing the prerequisites, you may be in for an expensive and unpleasant surprise. The criteria for legalising your car has become more complex. The passing years see even more changes in the law. The new rules may mean that it may be cheaper to buy a Spanish vehicle than to register your foreign plated car. When considering adhering to your obligations, have you considered the way to overcome these hurdles and avoid additional expenditure? Take into account questions such as, how long have you lived in Spain? When was the vehicle registered in your name? Is the vehicle a European model, an import from elsewhere or a customised model? It is important that you obtain all the necessary information before you start this procedure.

En la Residencia de las Palabras

El corazón de un número A los vendedores de lotería

A

llí están: hojas de colores numeradas, figuras impresas: el eco cultural o una historia no incorpórea, manos y pies, y unos pechos de artista o unos valles de hierba. Allí están, recién salidos de la imprenta: “...como unos toros de Guisando de la literatura...” así lo dice Francisco Umbral refiriéndose a las máquinas de imprenta. (Yo diría en este caso Guisando de los números.) ...Pero ahora son esas hojas de colores numeradas, hojas en verdad de un árbol pretencioso, de recursos, de respuestas aún posibles, respuestas que salen del esbozo de una imprenta donde el metal se convierte por el celo del tacto en algo virgen y salvaje, ternura y fuego de latidos de máquinas que enumeran, que forman luego parte de ese papel, con el uno, el dos, el cinco, el ocho, y la unidad de millar es entonces una historia: De pronto, allí, se pasea un ciego, almirante de la luz, caprichoso y buscador de su boleto, un lustro sin hallarlo, enzarzado en sus besos un pleito de humanas contradicciones, de miopía de todos al no querer salir del crónico miedo por las limitaciones.

Ha sentido en sus dedos la inocencia, el negror, el color del toro o su tinta.

Y ahora, al fin, como un milagro, el aire le premia su costumbre de palparlo, de verse, de verlos, de vernos.

Y el ciego dormita, rociando las sábanas unas palabras –ah, ese libro, ¿cómo se titula?. Sí: “El poeta de los

números”–. Está pensando en todos los que adquirieron un cupón. Unos lo pusieron sobre la guantera del coche; otros en la cartera; otros encima del televisor; otros, despistados, tardaron días en encontrarlo; y otros como autómatas, compraron el número de siempre, en la mañana distinta...

Allí va, surgiendo de su pelo aplomo de luz: avance del alba hacia su puesto. Otra mañana más –este universo cierto del pie muestra el dogma de la acera– se pasea un viejo, madrugador (un jubilado de carácter inquieto), atrayendo a los pájaros del parque o a ese tiempo en su mano repleta de efigies; ah, y está también el que pasa corriendo, haciendo el ejercicio matutino –tan bueno para la circulación antes de ir a la oficina–; y están el de la frutería y el del pescado, y los camioneros, transportadores de muebles, periódicos, alimentos y energías diversas (necesidades que transitan). ...El que hoy va por allí, surgiendo de su pelo aplomo de luz, avanza, vigila; ese que inspecciona, desea una ventana abierta en la calle para que unos ojos de viento ciudadano rebosen ilusión y comprendan la historia cotidiana de aquél que ha salido ganador del día.

Francisco Rodríguez Herrera Del libro: “Cuando la luna es celeste” 30 de Junio de 1.997

Todo tiempo es importante La playa que me vio, el niño que yo era, que soy en el clamor, la mar que me bañó, un sueño que me espera; la juventud y el sol, la madurez y la estrella, mi corazón y Dios, los que se fueron y los que quedan; pues toda edad importa,

ayer que me salió al encuentro, recuerdos de poetas, quien viene y va son versos, me queda su cosecha: la música del mar que hasta mi puerta llega.

Los jardines tuyos

Soluciones Puzzle Page Solutions Fácil Easy

A Rosi, aire y agua sobre caudales de besos Pues claro que el lirio vive por la rosa, somos flores, y un jardín familiar en amapolas de hijos hemos sembrado, ellos nos hace sentirnos más unidos, los vemos crecer y jugar y llorar y realizarse, y cuando están lejos escapa una llantina del rocío porque lo echamos de menos; nos amamos en un sólo jardín y, con dulzura, besos, los tuyos, y los abrazos de todos, somos flores distintas, sí, flores humanas que se caracterizan cada una de un modo, vergel que sienten las abejas, el gorrión, el jilguero, flores que siguen esperando brotes nuevos, abono fresco, abrazo cierto.

Los jardines tuyos son los mios, los que la vida nos ha regalado, ese terreno que estaba una vez solo y abandonado, lo encontramos, e hicimos el edén, no dejemos de cultivarlo con el amor y el sueño.

Tus jardines, mis jardines, nuestros jardines, un mundo eterno que une el lirio a la rosa, libertad del perfume llenando sueños nuevos, no dudes que por ti este sembrando un geranio de versos, espliego en el vals de la tierra que nos alimenta, la tarde sonríe, aire y agua sobre caudales de besos.

The pound and euro face uncertain times

£€

As the month of August wore on, the logic of the FX market wore out. Silly-season nonsense took over the reins from the usual market drivers, economics and common sense. It is not unusual in the dog days of summer that the senior investment banking folk bag the school holidays, leaving the juniors to mind the shop with strict admonitions to keep their heads down and avoid losing money.

Unexpected moves - even some of the expected ones for that matter - cause needless consternation and bigger than usual spikes and troughs. Nervousness, not conviction, rules.

Add to that twitchy foundation a growing wariness about double-dip recession and the market is primed to confuse itself. An example of the confusion came with the first revision to Britain’s second quarter gross domestic product (GDP) figures. The original estimate had been that GDP grew by 1.1% in the second quarter of the year; not as good as Germany’s 2.2% but better than Euroland’s 1.0%. Analysts expected the first revision to leave the number unchanged at 1.1%.

Instead, the Office for National Statistics increased it to 1.2%.

Normally, such an upward revision would be good for the currency any currency - but not these days.

No, investors’ first reaction was to sell the pound, taking it half a cent lower against the euro. Whether they did so because of, or despite the upwardly revised figure does not matter. They did it because, with the effects of Mr Osborne’s Austerity Budget mining the road ahead, Things Can Only Get Worse.

Quite how much worse the UK economy will look in six months’ or a year’s time, nobody knows, but that is the direction most investors are assuming. The pessimism takes the shine off what would otherwise be a celebratory time for sterling.

Fortunately for its position against the euro, there are also worries about the economy of the euro zone. Germany, as noted, achieved very strong export-led growth in

the second quarter of the year, but it was a single rose among the many thorns which dragged overall Euroland GDP growth down to less than half that level. The German economy is doing well enough but the others have to pull their weight too. There is also ongoing concern about sovereign debt in Euroland. The Spanish prime minister has hinted that he may relax the austerity regimen in order to stimulate the economy. The longterm viability of the three-monthold safety net that was erected to support Greek sovereign debt has also been called into question.

The nervousness about the UK economy and Euroland sovereign debt are balancing each other out for the time being between €1.15 and €1.25. Sterling was the winner in August, but it has been finding it tough going in September.

Normally, such an upward revision would be good for the currency Emerging data has been of precious little help to sterling.

According to the Bank of England, mortgage approvals numbered just 45k in August, fewer even than the downwardly revised 47k in July.

Public sector net borrowing for the same month jumped above £15 billion, a quarter more than analysts had projected. Hometrack reported another month of decline for house prices in September, with a -0.4% fall following August’s - 0.3% drop.

So lots of data that has impacted upon the £ to euro range and the possible range of up to 10 cents does not indicate a stability in the marketplace.

So if you are looking to gain the most for your money why not contact Moneycorp the foreign exchange specialist who can take care of all your money transfers to and from Spain; however small or large. Their local experts make the process quick, easy and highly cost-effective.

Pensions, health & unemployment British Consulate Pension, Benefit & Healthcare Team What is a ‘Vida Laboral’?

If you ever apply for a pension or benefit through Spain, you may find you are asked to show a vida laboral. This is a form which shows your work history and the insurance contributions you have made. If you are asked to show a vida laboral for work you have done in Spain, you can apply for this from Spanish social security, either online (www. segsocial.es), by calling 901 50 20 50, or visiting your local INSS office.

However, there are occasions when you may be asked for a vida laboral from the UK. We do not have an exact equivalent of this form in the UK and therefore which form you require will depend on why you have been asked for this information. In general, however, the following should apply: • If you are applying for a contributions-based pension or benefit through the INSS, it is the responsibility of the Spanish authorities to request this information from the UK directly and you should not have to supply the form;

• If you are applying for unemployment benefit, again the employment office (INEM) should request the form directly from HMRC in the UK. The form requested is known as a U1 (previously called E301). Please note, this can take up to 6 weeks to arrive in Spain and that the British Consulate cannot issue this form for customers. If, however, you need any further advice on obtaining this from, contact your local PBH Team.

• If you are asked for a vida laboral in any other circumstance, contact HMRC for advice. HMRC can be contacted via the web – www.hmrc. gov.uk – or by telephone 0044 191 203 7010 Benefit Spotlight – Renta Activa De Inserción As highlighted last month, there are a number of means tested unemployment benefits available in Spain. One of these benefits is known as Renta Activa de Inserción and it is designed specifically to help those groups of people who may find it particularly difficult to find work, such as those

who are long-term unemployed, or who have a disability.

Even better, you do not have to have worked in Spain previously to be eligible.

If you are under 65, on a low income (personally receive less than €468/ month) and believe you fall into one of the groups above, you may find it worthwhile looking into the Renta Activa de Inserción.

To be eligible as someone who is long-term unemployed, you need to be over 45, while if you have a disability you must be assessed as at least 33% incapacitated. In both instances, you must also have been signing on with the employment office for 12 continuous months.

Therefore, if you are looking for work but have not started signingon as unemployed already, you may find it well worth the while to start as it could result in entitlement to benefit further down the line.

More information available at www. sepe.es Although many British people work in Spain, they are not always aware of the rights they have or the help available to them if they lose their job or are unable to find work here.

Back to Britain – Is a move right for you?

We’ve all been affected in one way or another by the current economic situation, especially those people who rely on a fixed income, like a pension. At Age Concern España, we’ve seen more and more elderly people struggling to get by on their pensions and savings. Naturally they are considering their options for the future and some are taking the difficult decision to return to the UK. For those having money troubles, think about moving to the UK before your lack of funds makes this impossible. Making sure you’ve always got enough money saved to buy an airfare and to take care of moving means you won’t lose out on having a Plan B. Of course, going back to Britain might not be the only answer. By contacting a local Spanish social worker or visiting the social security (INSS) office (or their website www.segsocial.es) you could find out about financial help and care support here in Spain.

But if you’re set on making the move, it’s important to plan it in as much detail as though you were moving to a foreign country. In fact, you shouldn’t be surprised if the UK feels unfamiliar – lots of things may have changed since you left, especially those of you who’ve spent decades in Spain.

Here is my top list of things to bear in mind: Registering - When moving back to the UK, you will need to de-register in Spain. This means contacting the town hall and the INSS office to be taken off the padrón and the Spanish social security system.

Also, in the same way as you should have informed the International Pension Centre and HMRC of your move

to Spain, you must let them know you’ll be back in the UK. Pensions, benefits and housing Be careful not to assume your right to UK benefits or housing as soon as you touch down. If you have ever taken up permanent residence outside the UK, you may have to pass a Habitual Residence Test on your return. For more information on this, please see the leaflet “Returning to the UK” on the British Consulate website, ukinspain.fco. gov.uk, and contact the UK local authority of where you’ll be moving to.

Pets - Finding a home for your beloved four-legged friend when you move away can be upsetting.

Age Concern España Casework Service is trying to find out more about local animal charities across Spain who can help us re-house pets on either a temporary or permanent basis. That way, you’ll know that your pet is being well looked after. If you belong to an organisation which offers these

services, please contact us.

For those of you who have family and friends there, moving back to the UK will connect you to a support network you might not have in Spain. Our partner, Age UK, also has organisations throughout the country which can provide local information and advice (www. ageuk.org.uk). Here at Age Concern España, we can give support to those leaving Spain. Depending on the circumstances, we might be able to provide direct assistance for older British nationals returning to the UK. You can contact the British Consulate Pension, Benefit and Healthcare team at: Apto. de Correos 360, 29080 Malaga Or: Tel: (+34) 95 235 2300 Fax: (+34) 95 235 9211 E-mail: Malaga.Consulate@fco.gov.uk

La Escuela del Arsenal da comienzo a su cuarta temporada La escuela de los gunners con base en Sotogrande no podía empezar mejor la nueva temporada. Los programas de entrenamiento futbolístico que lleva a cabo en dos centros escolares de Algeciras siguen incrementando en números, especialmente en lo que a fútbol femenino se refiere donde ya cuentan con más de una treintena de niñas entrenando semanalmente. Además, dicho programa escolar continúa creciendo al haberse incorporado un nuevo colegio en Jerez donde entrenadores de la escuela dirigen a más de un centenar de niños a los largo de toda la semana. Esto ha supuesto que a día de hoy la escuela del Arsenal cuente con más de 300 alumnos repartidos entre los centros.

Otra novedad ha sido la presentación de un equipo alevín en la liga de Gibraltar, lo que supone su andadura en la competición oficial. El equipo está

formado por una selección de niños de las diferentes escuelas en las que trabajan o colaboran y contando con jugadores de 5 nacionalidades distintas, lo que hace ver la gran diversidad que existe en la escuela.

También ha dado comienzo su programa de entrenamientos semanales realizados en Guadiaro todos los martes de 6 a 7:30 y en los que pueden inscribirse todos aquellos niños y niñas de entre 5 y 17 años. 2010 ha significado un incremento significativo respecto a la temporada pasada, al contar en estas dos primeras jornadas con más de 30 jóvenes asistiendo a dichos entrenamientos.

Con este comienzo de la temporada 2010/2011 la escuela del Arsenal sigue demostrando el éxito de sus programes de entrenamiento y el énfasis que pone en asegurarse de que todo niño tenga la oportunidad de aprender a jugar al fútbol y disfrutar de ello “The Arsenal Way”.

The gunners soccer school based in Sotogrande couldn’t start the new season in a better way. Its football training programmes carried out in two private schools in Algeciras keep increasing numbers, especially on the girls’ football side where they have more than thirty girls training weekly. Moreover, this school programme continues to grow with the addition of another school in Jerez with more than a hundred students turning up for the training sessions. This has meant that the Arsenal school has now passed the 300 student mark across all schools.

Arsenal has also entered an Under 11 team into the Gibraltar league for the first time, giving it a start in competitive football. The team is made up of a selection of boys from the various schools that we work with or have

female, and mixed.

Mcdowell y Kaymer encabezan el magnífico plantel del Andalucía Valderrama Masters El Andalucía Valderrama Masters, que se disputará del 28 al 31 de octubre en el famoso recorrido sanroqueño, celebrará su primera edición con un magnífico plantel de jugadores liderado por dos ganadores de Grandes: Graeme McDowell, campeón del Open de Estados Unidos, y Martin Kaymer, ganador del US PGA. El torneo contará con una de las mejores participaciones de toda la temporada.

Junto a estos dos “Grandes”, van a tomar parte en el Andalucía Valderrama Masters sus compañeros del equipo europeo que hace un par de semanas derrotaron a Estados Unidos en la Ryder Cup: el malagueño Miguel Ángel Jiménez –con tres victorias este año-, el inglés Ross Fisher –ganador del Open de Irlanda-, los hermanos italianos Edoardo y Francesco Molinari, vigentes Campeones del Mundo –Edoardo se impuso en el Barclays Open de Escocia y Johnnie Walker Championship, y Francesco ha sido uno de los más regulares con ocho Top 10-, y el sueco Peter Hanson –que ganó el Iberdrola Open Cala Millor Mallorca y el Czech Open.

El alemán Martin Kaymer –a quien le encanta competir en España y cuenta entre sus mejores amigos con los jugadores españoles- es el único, de ambos circuitos, que ha logrado sumar cuatro títulos esta temporada: Abu Dhabi, US PGA, KLM Open de Holanda, y el domingo pasado se adjudicó el Alfred Dunhill Links Championship en St. Andrews, por lo que llega a Andalucía en su mejor momento.

El norirlandés Graeme McDowell ganó en junio el Open de Gales, y dos semanas

más tarde se proclamó campeón del Open de Estados Unidos en el mítico campo de Pebble Beach (habían pasado 40 años de la anterior victoria europea). Colin Montgomerie, capitán del equipo europeo de la Ryder Cup, colocó a McDowell en el último partido en los enfrentamientos individuales confiando en que tal vez sería G Mac (como le llaman sus compañeros) quien devolviera la Copa a Europa, y así sucedió. Graeme mantuvo la emoción hasta el hoyo 17, en el que derrotó a Hunter Mahan por 3 & 1.

El listado de los 96 participantes del Andalucía Valderrama Masters lo completan jugadores ilustres que cuentan con varios títulos en su historial, entre quienes se encuentran el irlandés Paul McGinley, el indio Jeev Milkha Singh y el danés Soren Kjeldsen, los tres ganadores en Valderrama, en 2005, 2006 y 2008, respectivamente.

A ellos se unirán, entre otros, David Howell, Darren Clarke, Niclas Fasth, Stephen Dodd, Kenneth Ferrie, Christian Cévaër, Nick Dougherty, Thomas Levet, Thongchai Jaidee, Alexander Noren, Peter Lawrie, Soren Hansen, Oliver Wilson, el estadounidense Todd Hamilton, ganador del Open Británico en el 2004, y el joven italiano Matteo Manassero.

España estará magníficamente representada con la participación de Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Álvaro Quirós, Sergio García, José Mari Olazábal, Gonzalo Fernández-Castaño, Rafa Cabrera, Pablo Martín, Pablo Larrazábal, José Manuel Lara y Nacho Garrido.

McDowell and Kaymer head the line-up at this month’s Andalucia Masters The Andalucia Masters, which is celebrating its first tournament at San Roque’s Valderrama Golf Course from 28 to 31 October boasts an impressive line-up lead

by Graeme McDowell, winner of this year’s US Open, and Martin Kaymer winner of the US PGA. Besides these two are a number of members of the victorious European Ryder Cup team.

Miguel Angel Jimenez, with three victories this year, Ross Fisher, winner of the Irish Open and last year’s Volvo Match Play Championship, the Italian brothers Francesco and Edoardo Molinari, current World Champions, Edoardo won the Barclays Scottish Open and Johnnie Walker Championship, and Francesco was one of the most consistent with eight Top 10 finishes - and the Swede Peter Hanson, who won the Open Iberdrola Cala Millor Mallorca and the Czech Open.

Germany’s Martin Kaymer is the only one of two players, who has taken four titles this season: Abu Dhabi, US PGA, KLM Dutch Open, and the Alfred Dunhill Links Championship at St. Andrews, so he arrives in Andalucia in peak form.

Northern Ireland’s Graeme McDowell won the Wales Open in June and two weeks later became champion of the US Open at the legendary Pebble Beach. Colin Montgomerie, captain of Europe’s Ryder Cup played ‘G Mac’ in the last singles match a smart move as McDowell secured the Cup for Europe.

The list of the 96 participants in the inaugural Andalucia Masters also includes such illustrious players as Irishman Paul McGinley, the Indian Jeev Milkha Singh and Denmark’s Soren Kjeldsen, the three winners at Valderrama in 2005, 2006 and

2008, respectively.

They will be joined by, among others, David Howell, Darren Clarke, Niclas Fasth, Stephen Dodd, Kenneth Ferrie, Christian Cévaër, Nick Dougherty, Thomas Levet, Thongchai Jaidee, Alexander Noren, Peter Lawrie, Soren Hansen, Oliver Wilson, American Todd Hamilton, who won the British Open in 2004, and the young Italian Matteo Manassero.

Spain is well represented with Miguel Ángel Jiménez, Álvaro Quirós, Sergio García, José Mari Olazábal, Gonzalo FernándezCastaño, Rafa Cabrera, Pablo Martín, Pablo Larrazábal, José Manuel Lara and Nacho Garrido all trying to keep the title in Spain.

A Healthier Life

The Resident - www.theresident.es

Try high-intensity cardio. High-intensity exercise, even if only in short bursts, may rev up the metabolism and get that fat mobilized in the post-exercise period. Do some high intensity as well, but don’t overdo it, because burning the fat is a long-term project and you don’t want to get ‘burned out’.

A group exercise program such as a solid cycle spin class might match this requirement. In fact, I highly recommend group cycle spin classes where you are encouraged to go fast, yet with the option to slow down if you need to.

Weights and Cardio Circuit Training Programs Combining weights and cardio in a circuit interval session is also an excellent approach to fat burning. The weights circuits are based on the idea of mixing high and low-intensity weights and cardio in a circuit.

Next month we will look at an example circuit class.

Remember check with your GP before starting any new exercise programme and start with a warm up and end with a stretch.

JoJo France and Claudia Norris Welcome to the health, nutrition and fitness column. This month Personal Trainer JoJo France and Nutritional Therapist Claudia Norris are looking into weight loss.

The Personal Trainer How to lose body fat and change the shape of your body To lose fat, you need to create a calorie deficit — to consistently burn more calories than you consume. And it doesn’t make a great deal of difference whether those calories are burned in one long workout or several shorter ones.

Some evidence for this comes from research carried out at the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine . For the study, a group of overweight women was assigned to one of two groups. Group one performed a single bout of exercise lasting 20-40 minutes. Group two did the same amount of exercise, but it was split into several smaller bouts lasting just 10 minutes.

And the result?

Twenty weeks later, the women who split their workouts into shorter bouts had lost 20 pounds, compared to just 14 pounds in the single-bout group. The reason for the extra weight loss is simply that women in group two did more exercise (and thus burned more calories) than women in group one, possibly because they found it easier to fit shorter workouts into their day.

The Best Strategy for Fat Loss Strength training has so many great things going for it that I’m a big fan -- increased strength, more muscle and body shape, better balance and bone density and improved functionality across all facets of human movement. But let’s be honest, we all need aerobic or cardio training as well. It has its own set of important functional benefits including general fitness, elastic arteries, increased heart and lung function and lower blood pressure to name a few benefits.

Increase muscle with weight training. Extra muscle helps to burn more energy at rest, even if only a little. This is called the resting metabolic rate of muscle or RMR. Extra muscle will also burn more fat in active phase, the active metabolic rate if you like, or the AMR, so having more muscle will definitely help burn more energy and fat.

Lift heavier weights. What I suggest is that the weights workout should be vigorous, with the number of repetitions kept at the low to medium end of the scale between 8 and 12 RM. To remind you, the RM is the repetition maximum, which means the most weight you can lift for this number of reps before fatigue. The 8-12 is within a range that should provide strength and bigger muscle growth, which is called hypertrophy.

Do aerobic exercise. Considering how much energy you would use in an hour of either type of exercise, weights or cardio, you must do some consistent aerobic or cardio work to burn fat.

Tel: (0034) 617 764 909 Eugene Marais BChD The Nutritional Therapist The adage that ‘fat makes you fat’ is not strictly true. In fact, we actually need to eat some fat to lose fat. Although many diets are still stuck on the ‘low fat’ message the importance of fat in our diet is becoming more and more recognised. Dr Walter Willett from the Harvard School of Medical Health has stated “The emphasis on total fat reduction has been a serious distraction in the efforts to control obesity and improve health in general”.

Low fat diets and products marketed as low fat are often a red herring as they can be laden with sugar. Low fat yoghurts are a classic example. It’s sugar that’s the real enemy for expanding waist lines. Ironically, fat slows down the rate at which the stomach empties and slows the release of sugar into the blood stream. Full fat yoghurt will keep you feeling full for longer and keep you off the blood sugar imbalance rollercoaster which makes it very difficult for the body to burn existing fat stores.

When I recommend eating fat I’m referring to the ‘good fats’ which include oily fish (eg sardines, mackerel, trout, wild salmon, tuna), nuts and seeds, avocados and olive oil. The unhealthy saturated fats found in burgers, chips, processed foods, crisps, ice cream etc come with their own health risks and are off the menu! Think of it as ‘oil but don’t grease your body’. I often recommend supplementing fish oils as part of a weight loss programme as the essential fatty acids (EFAs) in the fish oil boost metabolism which help you burn more calories.

So, feel free to enjoy a handful of nuts and seeds on your breakfast, some olive oil drizzled over your vegetables, and oily fish and avocado as part of your fat burning strategy!
