Cheaper rides PARENTS - and grandparents - thinking of taking youngsters to the funfair at Malaga City Fair will be pleased to know that the traditional Dia del Niño (Children’s Day) when rides are cheaper will be this

Sunday, August 23. But as the fair officially ends on Saturday it remains to be seen how many attractions will still be in place and the exact amounts of discounts have not been announced.

Taxi woes A NEW study by Facua consumers’ association has placed Malaga as the 25th most expensive Spanish city in which to take a taxi, but the second dearest in Andalucia. Short daytime journeys are where the difference is the greatest, with an average minimum fare of €3.65 in Malaga compared to €5.33 in San Sebastian at one end of the scale and €2.30 in Arrecife, Lanzarote, at the other.

Fears over John Keeble as Spandau Ballet cancel concerts BAND says it is sorry to let their fans down By Eleanor Hawkins SPANDAU BALLET has had to cancel three concerts planned in Spain this week (Barcelona, Ibiza and Marbella) due to drummer John Keeble’s ill health. The band was forced to cancel a concert in Italy after Keeble was taken ill and

doctors decided he was in no fit state to perform this week, leading to concerts in Barcelona, Ibiza and Marbella having to be cancelled. Although no details have been given by the group as to the type of illness Keeble is suffering from, Spanish daily La Vanguardia has reported that he had a

heart attack. In an official statement the band said: “Cancelling shows is always something that we try to avoid and we are so sorry to let our fans down, but our priority at this time is John’s health and his recovery.” Tickets will be refunded at points of purchase, the organisers announced.

By Eleanor Hawkins MARBELLA’S iconic landmark and attraction Funny Beach Activity Park took a heavy blow last week as the authorities decided to enforce a measure to close the go-karting track down. Officials arrived unannounced to seal off the popular track, the owner told Euro Weekly News (EWN), with no warning in the middle of the busy summer season, all over a

disagreement as to whether gokarting is a sport. The business-owner stressed that the rest of Funny Beach’s facilities, which include a water park, sun beds and a car park, remain open as normal, but said he had been locked out of the go-karting track and could not even get into his own office. The issue, Marbella Council announced in a statement, is that the track is built on land classified as for sports use only

yet the council and the Junta de Andalucia regional government insist that go-karting is actually a recreational activity and not a sport at all. The council said that an initial three-month licence was given to the facility when it opened 22 years ago but never renewed for this reason. Meanwhile, the owner told EWN that he had spent many years trying to reach a solution. “This is totally unfair, as I have tried countless times to resolve

this issue, and I do not agree that go-karting is not classed as a sport,” he said, adding: “It is a sport that many enjoy; this is ridiculous and unnecessary. I have adhered to other legalities and this is so wrong. They say that I cannot open until this is sorted out, and I have tried so many times over the years.” An online petition for the track to reopen has been launched on change.org which has already been signed by more than 200 people.

Ruiz said later: “Because I walked towards him [the bull], the crowd didn’t realise I was an activist at first. He was still alive, crying and trying to look at the people.”

She reported that as she was pulled away officials kicked her, while raising their hands into the air to make it look like they were not touching her, and fans spat at her and told her to get back to the kitchen.

They also help to break seasonality as they visit all year round and often revisit their destination several times. This type of tourism is increasing at a rate of 7 per cent per year, attracting mainly Spanish, British, Germans and Scandinavians.

According to the survey, it is residents above 60 years old who refused to go to the fair at all. Half of Malaga residents (52.6 per

The platforms, which were expected to dock in Malaga while waiting to be sent to their next destination, would have generated an estimated €1.5 million in docking fees alone. Port authorities said the change of plan was a big disappointment and suggested disagreements between Noatum, the private company in charge of Dock Nine, and the drilling company were responsible.

Malaga brothers Madrid bank robbery foiled POLICE had them under surveillance By Carol Irving THREE Malaga brothers, aged between 22 and 34, have been arrested by National Police after attempting to rob a bank in the Sanchinarro district of Madrid. A fourth person has also been arrested accused of acting as a lookout for the three brothers, warning them if any police appeared in the area. The brothers’ plan had been to wait for the arrival of the first bank employee and then threaten them with a gun and force them to open the safe, taking any customers

hostage if they entered the bank while the safe was being opened. The group were experienced in the technique of breaking into banks, making a hole in the walls, roof or floor big enough for them to enter the establishment from an empty business next door. The plot was foiled by police after detectives had followed the men to Madrid, as they had previous convictions for such crimes in Malaga and suspected they would strike elsewhere in Spain. Their suspicions were confirmed and they were able to catch the men just before they attempted the robbery.

PLOT FOILED: National Police had followed the gang to Madrid.

Couple arrested for stealing from cars A COUPLE have been arrested suspected of stealing from seven cars parked near Malaga’s Guadalmar beach. Following a number of

similar reports of thefts in the area, the National Police force posted plain- clothes officers amongst parked cars. They observed a man and a

woman arrive with a small child. While the woman pretended to tend to the child, the man was seen to break locks and steal items

including sunglasses, bags and wallets from inside the cars, leading the officers to arrest them both before alerting the owners of the

vehicles and returning their goods. The couple, both aged 36, had previous records for 31 offences between them.

The problem, according to the association, is not a lack of surgeons, but that the rest of the staff are on holiday and there are great restrictions on the recruitment of new personnel to provide cover. Asamma is not the only association complaining about this situation. The medical trades union also did the same, saying the number of open operating rooms is insufficient to assist basic needs, which is in turn creating longer waiting times. For their part, the hospital has replied saying that it was untrue that waiting lists had lengthened during the summer.

Strong believer that anything is possible Our Euro Women series is featuring women who have made a success of their lives in Spain. These outstanding ladies have been shattering glass ceilings whether in business, charity work or sports. Sam has been an inspiration to others, a true rock. THE first impression you receive from meeting Sam Bayley is warmth and openness as her smile tells you that everything will be OK. This is the philosophy that has made Sam strong, and she generates that in others around her. Sam graduated in the UK with her Master’s degree in English Literature at Glasgow University at the age of 21. Later she began work as a merchandiser for C&A where her career took her to Dundee, London and Brent Cross. Sam’s senior manager steered her away from what she originally wanted to do which was to become a buyer, as they had realised her skills were creative and so she succeeded in her role as merchandiser. In 1989 Sam’s parents moved to Spain, and so she decided to try it too, just for one year, but that soon became permanent. Within that time she met Joe, who later became her husband. Together they worked hard building up their furniture business, working long hours producing it and many hours spent at markets to sell their wares. This is where success begins, as you only reap what you sow, and both Sam and Joe were busily planning for their future. During this time Sam also raised her family, five beautiful children, and still she managed to work the business with Joe working all hours around the clock. Some years later, Sam noticed that things were not going too well in life for one of her daughters, Hannah, and there were problems that needed to be addressed to put things right. It takes a special person, like a mother to know when something is not quite right. Hannah was suffering depression

which is a condition that many suffer which goes unnoticed. Being a loving mother, Sam was quick to respond and began to study eagerly in order to offer help first hand. After some years, Hannah came back to the light with the love and strength that had been given to her by her loving family. Sam was so passionate about the need to raise awareness of conditions such as these that she decided to do much more to help. The Mental Health Foundation is an organisation that Sam has raised money for by using her skills and also her sheer determination. Sam trained to do the London marathon after months of getting herself fit and earning a place to run. Despite the odds after tearing her calf muscle, Sam soldiered on to still enter the run with her two friends Jen and Kerry.

She recalls the emotions that flowed when she ran past Buckingham Palace and the Mall to the finishing line to earn her medal. Before this wonderful achievement, Sam organised a concert to

raise money for the Mental Health Foundation. Divas, Nikki Rae, Laura Elen, Jordana, and Laura Oldfield put together a spectacular show earlier this year which was a huge success and the total

fundraising amount so far has been a staggering €5,211. This is an amazing contribution towards not only raising money but raising awareness of this type of condition. Sam is a strong believer that anything is possible; she is a tower of strength. Maybe it is because Sam practises mindfulness which is a guide to help your mind be in a better place, to be positive, not to look back or regret, but to live in the moment. This is why Sam has been an inspiration to others, a true rock, within the family and the workplace too. When asked who were the people that she looked up to the most she said: “Paula Radcliffe for running, Hillary Clinton as she is an amazing woman, and Maya Angelou as there are many quotes that are so true by her.” Today Sam’s daughter Hannah has a beautiful baby girl herself named Ella after her great grandmother. Sam added “Ella was my grandmother who was an amazing woman, strong and independent, and who I looked up to, and was always a light in my life.” Sam Bayley is a replica of that inner strength and understanding that continues to radiate upon others around her.

Second runway proving a lifesaver

FEATURE Flickr: Montuno

AS record numbers of visitors come to the Costa ALTHOUGH it was complained about in June 2012 when it was put into service, Malaga-Costa del Sol airport’s second runway is proving worth its weight in gold this summer as record numbers of visitors come to the Costa. Back in the day those against the project said it would never be needed, yet the

second runway has been in use every weekend since July 11 as more than 400 flights are registered per day. Aena airport authorities provided the data, noting that the runway will also be needed over the last two weekends in September due to surprisingly high numbers of flights programmed.

In July, the airport broke its own records by registering 12,578 flights and 1.7 million passengers, more than in August last year, and is well on the way to blasting through this year’s goals.

MALAGA AIRPORT: Broke its own records.

Man, 77, dies on Malaga’s La Misericordia beach A MAN died on Thursday, August 13, on Malaga’s La Misericordia beach. According to the 112 Emergency Service sources, the 77-year-old man died after suffering a heart attack when he was still in the water.

The events took place at 11.20am on Thursday and when several witnesses alerted the emergency services the man had already been pulled out of the water. Upon their arrival, medical staff could only certify the man’s death.

Parents of baby arrested for suspected child abuse THE parents of a four-monthold baby girl have been arrested in Malaga City for suspected abuse detected by doctors at the

city’s Materno Infantil children’s hospital. Doctors raised the alarm last week when the mother of the

child took her to the hospital and signs of possible sexual abuse were spotted. Although National Police officers who interviewed the woman initially arrested the child’s father, later discovery of a head injury and various bruises led doctors to suspect the mother could also be involved in mistreatment of the child. Both parents have been sent to jail and the baby, who was released from hospital on Monday (August 17) has been taken in by a temporary foster family.

Avoiding food poisoning A TOTAL of 4,261 inspections were carried out on 4,034 establishments dealing with food in Malaga Province last year, the Junta de Andalucia regional government reported. The provincial Health department runs spot-checks all year round on shops, restaurants and other establishments where food is handled or sold and according to public health service leader Yolanda Gonzalez just 1 per cent of checks reveal serious problems leading to fines. These checks are more frequent over the summer months, with 675 carried out mostly at bars and restaurants between June 1 and September 30 last year. Gonzalez ended by reminding people to take care with food at home during the hot months and avoid food poisoning incidents.

Festivities marred by drugs and underage drinking POLICE had to close down five establishments By Carol Irving FIVE traders at the Malaga Fair have been closed down in the first few days of the festival. The businesses were shut down by Local Police after they discovered that the traders were selling alcohol or drugs to underage consumers. The Red Zone hut was closed down on Saturday August 15, after a group of youths were seen taking drugs inside, according to town hall sources. In the same area of Cortijo de Torres, the UGT hut was closed down due to underage drinking. While there are no restrictions on entry to these establishments, the sale and consumption of alcohol to and by minors is strictly forbidden, even when an adult buys alcohol for them. Three more businesses were closed down in the centre of Malaga; one, Yao, on the corner of Calles Carcer and Beates, was a grocery store but police noticed that large queues were forming around the shop with fights almost

CHECKPOINT SEARCH: The drugs were discovered by the Guardia Civil.

684 kilos of hash seized on the A7 SUMMER traffic campaign checks on traffic violations By Carol Irving GUARDIA Civil have seized 684 kilos of hashish from a van on the A7 in the area of San Roque. The drugs were discovered after a unit from the Guardia Civil in Madrid had set up a security checkpoint on the A7 motorway as part

of the ‘OperacionVerano,’ th e s u mme r traffic ca mp aig n d e s ig n e d to k ee p a check on traffic violations during the holiday months. T h e c h ec k p o in t, in the municipality of San Roque, had attempted to stop the van in question but the driver had ignored the signal to stop, increased his speed

and smashed into one of the vehicles in the operation. The van was immobilised and the driver fled with the Guardia Civil in pursuit before they managed to stop and arrest him. Police found 20 packages containing hashish inside the vehicle, weighing a total of 684 kilos.

Police injured in crash A YOUNG man has been arrested for allegedly jumping a red light and seriously injuring three policemen in Marbella. The three National Police officers, aged between 23 and 35, had just started their shift and were heading to their beat in Puerto Banus in a police van when a blue car driven by a young man smashed into them as they turned onto the main road, police reported. The force of the crash was such that one of the policemen was thrown from the van and the driver of the car was found lodged between the

dashboard and the passenger seat and was also seriously injured. All four were taken to the Costa del Sol Hospital for treatment with both drivers being admitted to intensive care. The young man was arrested for offences against road safety and causing injury to others. One of the injured officers later said he was glad it had happened to them rather than somebody else, as their reinforced van had protected them somewhat and a family travelling in a normal car may not have lived to tell the tale.

Two arrested for Ronda robberies GUARDIA CIVIL has arrested two people accused of ca r r y i n g o u t a t le a s t eight robberies in bars, restaurants and public establishments in La Serrania de Ronda (Malaga). The men are also facing charges for stealing several

v eh icle s . In a p ro p e rty search, two of these vehicles, a tobacco machine, a slot machine and a wheelbarrow were seized. According to the police statement, the 30 and 38year-old detainees’ modus operandi was to steal a car

somewhere in Ronda with which they would then drive to the chosen establishment and using a crowbar, they would force its door, s te a ling w ha te ve r the y found inside afterwards. The two men have been remanded to prison.

Bike lane project still on stand by Flickr by Leo Hidalgo

MALAGA CITY will have to wait a bit longer

BIKE LANES: The works have not yet been put out to tender.

By Maria José Fernandez IT looks like the ever so requested, and promised bike lane which would connect the whole of Malaga City will have to wait a bit longer still. The agreement, which was reached only after one year of negotiations between the city Council and Junta de Andalucia regional government, anticipated the creation of 68 kilometres of brand new bike lanes until 2017 with a total estimated cost of €14 million, 75 per cent of which would be paid for by the

Andalucian Government. However, eight months after this project was agreed, the Junta de Andalucia seems to have put it on hold. The town Council, on the other hand, did kick off its part of the project and during the past few months, a total of eight kilometres of bike lanes which cross through Cruz del Humilladero, Teatinos and the coastal areas have been constructed at a cost of €1 million. In the meantime, the Junta de Andalucia has not yet put the works out to tender, and they

admit the 50 kilometres of bike lines they committed to construct will not be seen this year. “Since the agreement for this project was reached, two elections, the regional and local ones have been celebrated, which is in part to be blamed for the delay,” said Francisco Fernandez España, Provincial Delegate for Development and Housing. It is expected representatives from both institutions will hold a meeting in September to discuss this matter and resume works as soon as possible.

Local Police chief of Marbella not welcome FIVE trade unions representing Local Police officers of Marbella (UPLB-A, SIP-AN, UEPAL, SIEP and STAL) have requested City Mayor Jose Bernal dismiss the current police chief Rafael Mora, alleging that he is occupying a job position for which he is not qualified for several years. They claimed that, for this and other reasons,

the five groups already requested the same thing to the former government, but to no avail and that it is traditional after a new local government team is elected to change the local police chief. They finished saying Mr Mora has been “damaging the reputation of the Local Police body for years.”

Scheme creates 70 short-term jobs SEVENTY jobless people from Mijas will be given work for three months thanks to a new regional employment scheme. Employment councillor

Mario Bravo reported that the scheme, funded with €232,302 by the Junta de Andalucia regional government, will give work to 70 local unemployed with little or no in-

come in November, December and January. “We know it isn’t a real solution but at least it will help people get back into the job market,” the councillor said.

A natural way to fight poverty FAMILIES to be encouraged to ‘grow their own’ By Eleanor Hawkins ONE hundred and fifty needy families in Ronda are to benefit from an ecological social allotment project organised by the Red Cross in collaboration with the Unicaja Bank Foundation. The families, fighting poverty, unemployment, drugs and disabilities, will be taught how to grow their own crops on the allotments

in an ecologically-friendly way serving to educate them and help feed them at the same time. Chosen families will not have to pay for their allotments, just work on them, and will also be given foodstuffs each month by the Red Cross. Ronda Red Cross leader Antonio Lasanta said: “It’s a project that aims to boost their self-confidence and move them away from the social alienation of poverty.”

COOLING OFF: Dogs and owners at Los Niños Park.

Owners urged to clean up pet mess FREE bags and leaflets to be handed out By Eleanor Hawkins IN an attempt to convince dog-owners of the need to clean up after their pets, Estepona Council will be handing out 100,000 bags and 2,000 bag holders along with 10,000 leaflets over the next few weeks. Raising awareness amongst dog-owners is one of the main aims of a cleanup campaign launched in the town, explained Services Councillor Blas Rufaza, as: “Most owners have a good attitude and remember their bags but some still forget or haven’t yet acquired the habit.” Leaflets contain information on 65 special bins spread

across town for the used bags to be placed in along with information on a specific dog park at Los Niños Park, the councillor said. Other information the campaign aims to provide is regarding a free used furniture collection service and the Punto Limpio recycling point. Rufaza explained that those needing to get rid of furniture should call 951 703 849 or send an email to www.lineaverdeestepona.com to arrange collection. The service runs Mondays to Sundays in the mornings and afternoons. The recycling point by the beginning of the Jubrique road, he also pointed out, is

open Mondays to Fridays from 9.30am to 1pm and 4pm to 6pm, and from 9am to 2pm on Saturdays, and accepts all types of rubbish which cannot be thrown into normal bins including rubble, used oil and batteries. “By going to the recycling point we guarantee our waste is properly treated to avoid damage to the environment and keep our town clean at the same time,” the councillor said. The leaflets also remind people that rubbish should not be taken out to public containers until 9pm in the summer and 8pm in the winter to avoid bad smells and give the town a better, healthier image.

Works almost completed around Malaga Cathedral THE transformation of Malaga Cathedral’s surroundings will be completed by October 31. Works are expected to improve the flow of traffic by turning some areas into pedestrian-only streets. This official date means an extension of five months for the project’s completion period agreed originally, caused mainly due to the discovery of important archaeological remains in the area.

Works will end one year and 17 days after they started, as in December experts found remains of a dyke, which is believed to have originated in the 16th century, during the reign of Spain’s King Phillip II. The structure was key for the commercial boom in Malaga in the 17th century, as it was the epicentre for the arrival and departure of boats and the customs house was also located next to it.

“Paper work is extremely easy,” he said, and continued: “When the business is open, the Council will ensure that all regulations are being complied with.”

The Council will ensure all regulations are being complied with. The new 425 Fuengirola-based businesses include amongst others, travel agencies, fashion shops, hair salons and property agencies. “These numbers go to show the healthy financial situation of our town,” he concluded.

Flocks of residents leaving province

SHAKING ON IT: Ambassador Sulaiman Al Harbi and Marbella Mayor Jose Bernal.

Diplomatic relations MARBELLA becoming a popular place for a second home By Eleanor Hawkins KUWAIT’S Ambassador to Spain, Sulaiman Al Harbi, has been on a visit to Marbella to discuss ways to collaborate to promote the city as a tourist destination. Local Mayor Jose Bernal received the ambassador at the town hall, and later stated:

“We’re going to establish a fluid relationship between the two destinations. People from Kuwait are increasingly choosing Marbella to buy a second home and we’re going to try and boost this aspect along with commerce.” An estimated 30,000 people from the Middle Eastern country are expected to visit the Costa city this year, Bernal said.

TRADITIONALLY, Malaga has been a province known for its talent to attract new residents thanks to its dynamic labour market and bright future prospects However, with the arrival of the financial crisis, the landscape changed drastically. The negative financial circumstances caused unemployment rates to rocket and Malaga saw a massive exodus of residents going abroad to enter the labour market. Taking this into account, it is not surprising that from 2000 until 2014, the number of residents moving out of Malaga has increased by a staggering 200 per cent. Fourteen years ago, emigration reached a total number of 26,743 residents, while in 2014, the number had grown to 65,042, that is threefold. The data has been released by the Statistics and Cartography Andalucia Institute (IECA). However, figures also show that Malaga and Huelva are the two only provinces in Andalucia that can boast a positive migration rate. In total 27 per cent of migratory movements in the region had Malaga as their destination. This means that, even though 65,042 people left Malaga, a total of 75,687 arrived, which gives a rate of more than 10,000 new residents.

Party proposes fines for excessive water use CIUDADANOS says penalise those who use more than 217 litres a day By Staff Reporter POLITICAL party Ciudadanos in Malaga has proposed fining people who use too much water. The group wants Emasa, the municipal water provider, to reduce prices for those who use less than 150 litres per day and fine those who use more than 217 litres per day, which they say is “wasting resources”. Their spokesman, Juan Cassa, said that this will help resolve problems with the billing system and reduce costs. They believe current billing systems are excessive and want to make prices fairer for all residents of the city. Some 35,000 residents signed a petition against the billing system introduced by the mayor, Francisco de la Torre. Ciudadanos also suggests expressing the water quantities in 1,000 litres rather than in cubic metres to make it easier for people to understand.

2015 EU Regulation on Succession: Steps to take By Antonio Flores Lawyer LLM (Essex) Reg. Nº 4712 I.C.A. Málaga E-mail: aflores@lawbird.com Homepage: http://belegal.com/blog-by-antonio-flores www.lawbird.com

AS of August 17, EU residents are able to choose whether the law applicable to their succession will be that of the country of their habitual residence or that of their nationality, on the understanding the former law will apply by default in the absence of choice of law. This has important implications for habitual residents of Spain where, owing to century-old laws, children have an automatic entitlement to two thirds of the estate. According to Regulation (EU) No 650/2012 this choice […] shall be made expressly in a

declaration in the form of a disposition of property (will or codicil) or shall be demonstrated by the terms of such a disposition (impliedly). To avoid uncertainty, habitual residents of Spain who already have a will (Spanish or foreign) need to check if it contains a term(s) that indicates that the national law, sometimes described as personal law, will apply to the inheritance. Most wills I have come across do state this when noting that the testator’s wishes are in accordance to his or her national/personal law, which in my opinion - and that of most lawyers - suffices and therefore, a new will is not required. Where there is no provision to the effect in a will and the testator wishes to avoid the application of Spanish succession laws, we recommend

drafting a new will introducing a clause of choice of applicable law. The Regulation does not deal with taxes as these are unavoidably- to be paid in Spain in respect to […] assets located in or rights that are fulfilled or exercised in Spain, irrespective where the testator is a resident of. Finally, the Regulation introduces a European Certificate of Succession to avoid lengthy, complex and expensive legal procedures where a foreign will is to be enforced in a member state. Note: please be advised that the UK and Ireland are not taking part in this Regulation and are not bound by it or subject to its application. Therefore, the European Certificate of Succession will not be issued in these member states.

Mayor of the town, Oscar Medina, explained in a statement that this initiative launched by the council had been designed as an original, unique and innovative new feature of Torrox, which is also expected to become a tourist attraction. He pointed out that the installation was set up by a local company and will remain in place until the winter. Paola Moreno, Deputy Mayor of Torrox, said the project had coincided with the local fair in the district El Morche, which meant that a large number of tourists had already been able to enjoy this new umbrella extravaganza.

Back-to-school expenses can cripple cash-strapped parents THESE costs come all at once with no phased scheme for payment to pay off bills gradually

Loose change Jane Plunkett A look at finance for females jane.plunkett@euroweeklynews.com

FROM fancy folders and trendy backpacks to USB drives and other techie gadgets, ballooning back-to-school costs are pinching families’ budgets. The cost of everything school-related keeps going up, which makes trying to pay everything else in the household a struggle. A recent report from the UK revealed that 60 per cent of parents are struggling financially because of back-to-school expenses, which is causing great stress as a result. School costs nowadays range from books, uniforms, voluntary contributions, registration fees and after-school activities. But they can also incorporate the cost of expensive technology as some schools now require that parents pay for technological advances like iPads or

Firing line for banks NINE banks have agreed to pay €1.8bn in settlements to US investors over claims they rigged foreign exchange rates, according to lawyers who are taking action on behalf of investors. Clients including hedge funds and pension funds accuse banks of conspiring to manipulate rates. The banks include HSBC, Barclays, BNP Paribas, Bank of America, JP Morgan, Citibank, Goldman Sachs, RBS and UBS.

Secure future THE Goldman Sachs Group has declared that it will be buying GE Capital Bank’s US online deposits, with the idea that will give the largest American investment bank a more constant source of funding should it need to weather future crises.

IMF advice “SPAIN needs to improve conditions to allow small- and medium-sized enterprises to grow,”said the IMF, and recommended keeping wages in line with productivity and strengthening the skills of long-term jobless.

SCHOOL TECH: Some parents have to pay for expensive items like iPads. contributing to the cost of such devices. Parents might also be asked to pay for schoolbook downloads, an additional charge that does not

appear on the book list. And the main problem for parents is that these costs come all at once, with no phased scheme

for payment that might allow them to pay off the bills gradually. Meanwhile, another study from the US shows that “most” kids will lose items! And while peer pressure often dictates to parents that children have to get the most popular branded items, it is actually best not to splash out too much on coats, books, lunchboxes and tablets, as many children end up losing many of their shiny new supplies by year’s end. Before dashing out to the shops, check what is left over from last year. Why bother buying a brand-new pack of pencils, pens and highlighters when you have loads sitting in your kitchen drawer? Likewise, making an inventory of your child’s wardrobe can also prevent overbuying. Parents can often save money too by shopping online, or remembering that items are priced highest at back-to-school time, so if it is possible to wait until the end of September sales, it would be worthwhile. And as always, make a list of everything you need to buy and stick to that list.

Spain expected to break record for car sales this year NEW vehicle deliveries in Spain are predicted to move past the one million vehicles threshold for the first time in five years, thanks to a strong economic rebound and the government’s subsidy programmes. According to ANFAC, the country’s industry association, the 2015 forecast finds passenger car registrations increasing by 23 per cent to 1.05 million vehicles. In 2014, a total of 855,308 cars were delivered in Spain, which was an 18 per cent rise on the previous year. The ANFAC guideline sees all registrations, including industrial and commercial vehicles, jumping 22.7 per cent to 1.21 million units. ANFAC President Jose Luis Lopez-Schuemmer said: “The economic forecast is good, we expect 3 per cent GDP growth this year, and the jobless rate will also fall.”

DRIVING FORWARD: Forecast sees passenger car registrations increasing by 23 per cent to 1.05 million.

In rehab GOOD news for UK banks as rehabilitation plans look up. The prominent fund manager Hermes, which manages almost £10bn in stocks as part of a £30bn investment portfolio, is looking to buy back into the industry, even while lenders continue to struggle with looming problems in their finances and culture.

£19m fine PRESSURE builds on BP to pay a £19 million fine after a US judge ruled its traders had manipulated the natural gas market in 2008. The fine relates to Federal Energy Regulatory Commission's investigation findings in 2011 into possible price fixing.

WE scratch our heads when a corporate business enterprise spends a million or so from petty cash to redesign a brand logo. Yes, they are spendthrifts, aren’t they? However, one must never underestimate the pulling power of brand symbolism or business identity. A corporate logo is just as impressive as the old school or regiment tie once was. It suggests credibility, reputation and standing in the business community. A logo carries much street cred with the buying public. It helps if you are seeking credit and dealing with your bank. Arranging a logo is easy enough. If you are light-fingered, in a laptop keyboard sense, there are online logo designs to draw inspiration from. Once you find something that inspires you the next step is to find a graphic designer. These unique craftsmen and women tend to work from home; their fees, unfortunately, are buttons and they deserve bet-

BRAND SYMBOLISM: Never underestimate its pulling power. ter. Tony Perrin was a master at creating company logos. My friend created designs to a marketing company for £50. His artwork was then sold on to the end user company for £2,000. Once you have your new logo your signwriter and printer complete the job. You now have business premises, vehi-

cles, advertisements and company stationery carrying your unique corporate identity. It is yours; no one can steal your copyright. There is the occasional reluctance to use a company brand logo. Common perception suggests the public will presume brand identity firms charge higher prices. This is not necessarily so. We

do business in a competitive environment. A limited plumbing firm found a way to get around this problem. In addition to their large press advertisements they advertised a different telephone number for a household plumbing service in the classifieds. The two phones sat together on the company’s reception desk.

British pride delivers a message VJ DAY celebrations demonstrate the resolve of Western beliefs and faith LEAPY LEE SAYS IT

OTHERS THINK IT I SINCERELY hope our enemies took careful note of the glory and power of our VJ Day celebrations this week. L e t u s a l so h o p e th a t th e Britis h demonstrations of remembrance and pride toward those who suffered and died to allow us to remain in democratic freedom, delivered a strong message to the primitive extremists who believe they can, with acts of cowardice and terror, overcome the resolve of our Western beliefs and faith. Take heed all of you. For all your messages of hate, your willingness to give up your earthly existence for some mystical ShangriLa, your notion that oppression and violence are the paths to travel on this earth, and your dangerous misconception that one day, all who exist on this planet will follow your misguided philosophies,

PRIDE: Remembering those who have fallen for freedom.

I suggest you think again. When all the death, destruction and misery you can deliver is at an end, when your evil regime lies rotting in the tat-

tered remnants of its own beliefs, the future veterans of the West will once again gather together to remember with pride those who fought and died to destroy our

enemies, and you and your bunch of savages will have joined the list. The list of all those who were misguidedly led to believe that our love of peace and democracy is a western weakness; your egotistic naivety will be your downfall. It is Christian strength that has survived pretty much intact for over 2,000 years. Most of us who follow it are in awe of death and love our lives. That makes us far more dangerous than those who hate this earthly journey and lay out a welcome mat to some mystical afterlife fallacy filled with virgins. Have no fear, your evil actions will never be forgotten. When the future veterans of the war on terror gather to remember those who died fighting to stamp out your despicable regime, none of you will be there to witness it. There will actually be so many of your followers in Shangri-La the virgin supply will have ground to halt long since. God bless our heroes! Keep the faith Love Leapy leapylee2002@gmail.com

On the way to nowhere Cassandra Nash A weekly look - and not entirely impartial reaction to the Spanish political scene

NATIONAL parliament MPs claimed €2.6 million in travel expenses in the first six months of this year. Since the parliament chamber looks empty most of the time it begs the question of how they manage to spend that much on getting there.

A question of identity THE Partido Popular believes it has found the weak flank of the PSOE socialists. That flank is Cataluña, not because the PSOE is pro-independence but because its secretary general Pedro Sanchez suggested constitutional changes recognising Cataluña’s own identity and uniqueness.

However much Rajoy complains, the Catalans are never going to feel they are primarily Spanish first, no more than most Scots would describe themselves as primarily British. Meanwhile Sanchez has given the PP a stick to beat him with, even though flexibility is a better way of keeping Cataluña within Spain than Rajoy’s autocratic rigidity.

Not his cup of tea UNLOVED former Education minister Jose Ignacio Wert hightailed it off to Paris to live but enemies are still out to smear him and, in passing, Jose Manuel Soria, the current minister of Industry, Power and Tourism. Together with their respective spouses they allegedly had an expenses-paid holiday in a Dominican Republic hotel, invited by the own-

ers. Soria admitted spending two nights there, pre-paying by credit card. Wert insisted that he did not stay in a hotel that he had never heard of in a country he has never visited. Doubtless he should be believed: a brash Caribbean honeymoon paradise doesn’t sound Wert’s style at all.

Some plea bargaining WHY did disgraced ex-vice president Rodr i go Rat o and cur r ent I nt er i or minister Jorge Fernandez Diaz meet? They spoke at the ministry, triggering rumours that they discussed Rato’s run-ins with the law over Bankia, of which he was president, and his own finances. It was personal, insisted Fernandez Diaz, prompting further incredulity. What personal matter could link the man who claimed that St Teresa would help Spain emerge from the crisis and a m an who spent t housands at di scotheques on his undeclared ‘black’ credit card? RODRIGO RATO: Has had run-ins with the law over Bankia.

How did Britain get into this state? Nora Johnson

ACCUSATIONS against the late PM, Sir Edward Heath, are just the latest in the never-ending round of alleged child abuse cases. Whilst there is no doubt these matters should be investigated and the guilty brought to justice - like Max Clifford, Rolf Harris, Gary Glitter - there have also been notable failings. The example of Lord McAlpine (falsely identified as a child abuser by BBC2’s Newsnight) clearly shows that mistakes of identity or false allegations aren’t impossible and that justice and fair procedures should apply to the living as well as the dead. As Sir Edward Garnier, former solicitor-general, said: “This country is the poorer if it continues to allow allegations to be bandied around as if

LORD MCALPINE: Justice and fair procedures should apply to the living as well as the dead. they are the unvarnished truth and for that to be . . . supported by police forces holding press conferences in front of Ted Heath’s house or for them to tip off the BBC to fly helicopters over Cliff Richard’s apartment.”

So, we see another nail in the failing reputation of the UK’s justice system and public trust in the police? The suspicion is that the police are yet another British institution that’s become removed from the concerns of the vast majority of people who

pay for it. Too easily influenced by fashionable political issues; too eager for the spotlight; and fairly useless at doing what people really want them to do. Incidentally, the entertainer Lionel Blair recently declared, after 60 years

in showbiz, that he’ll no longer work with kids because of the risk of being falsely accused of inappropriate behaviour. This is after an incident in Stockport while he was doing panto. Blair asked a little boy, aged about seven, his name. The child looked up at him and replied: “If you touch my nuts, you’re dead.’’ What a sad indictment of these depressing Savilesque times. But time to get used to the fact that Britain is rapidly changing. Uncontrolled immigration; incompetent politicians; overpaid, over-pensioned public-sector bosses who couldn’t organise a you-know-what; a health service on life support despite huge increases in ‘managers’; schools that teach little and allow young people to leave unable to read, write or do simple sums. But then, we’re all in it together, right?

DAYTIME RUNNING LIGHTS: Since 2011 all new cars have them. A LOT of cars are seen with their lights on during the day but these lights are usually different to ones referred to as ‘headlights.’ Since 2011, all new cars and trucks sold in the EU were required to have Daytime Running Lights (DLR) which turn on automatically with the engine in accordance with a new directive designed to improve road safety. The rule then became mandatory for trucks and buses from August 2012. The DLR is a new method of illumination with low energy consumption, but it is not designed to provide additional lighting for the driver, but rather they work to improve the vehicle’s visibility to other road users. With regard to headlights, there are times when you must turn your lights on during

the day and in certain locations, as marked by road signs, such as when you enter a tunnel. During the winter months when the sun is lower and visibility becomes problematic as a result, the DGT recommend having headlights on during the day. Under normal circumstances there is no mandatory requirement to have your headlights on during the day and that also applies when driving through road works. However, they should be used in certain road conditions, such as when travelling on a reversible lane, which can at times, be used by traffic in either direction. These lanes are more common near to city centres where the flow of traffic can alter to give more space for vehicles in one direction.

Funagram

Just Joking

Unscramble the name of an epic 1995 historical drama film (one word): A VERB HATER

Director: Anne Fletcher Cast: Reese Witherspoon, Sofia Vergara, John Carroll Lynch, Rob Kazinsky Rating: PG-13

Unscramble the name of a popular English seaside resort (one word): NIGHT ORB

Hexagram

10-Star Quiz

A man calls his lawyer and asks: “How much would you charge me to answer three questions?” Lawyer: “€400.” Man: “Jesus, that’s a lot of money isn’t it?”

FUNAGRAM SOLUTION: BRAVEHEART, BRIGHTON

Hot Pursuit

Lawyer: “I guess so. What’s your third question?”

The purpose of the Hexagram puzzle is to place the 19 six-letter words into the 19 cells. The letters at the edges of interlocking cells MUST BE THE SAME. The letters in the words must be written CLOCKWISE. The word in cell 10 (ORDAIN) and one letter in four other cells are given as clues.

Reese Witherspoon stars in this comedy as an uptight and by-the-book-cop, Rose Cooper, in the San Antonio Police Department. She is asked to accompany Deputy US Marshal Jackson to protect an informant, Felipe Riva and his wife Daniella (Vergara) after Felipe decides to testify against notorious drugs cartel leader Vincente Cortez. They arrive at the Riva’s home to the sound of gunshots. Two masked men shoot at Jackson and Felipe and they are killed. Cooper finds Daniella hiding in the backseat of their car and helps her to escape. Cooper is then considered a fugitive since she has taken Daniella with her. The story continues as the two race through Texas, pursued by crooked cops and murderous gunmen.

YOUR STARS VIRGO (August 24 - September 23) With so much energy around you, it will be hard to concentrate on business matters. Finances, however, do require your attention and a brief period of scrutiny will show you why. Someone close may be spending too much or undermining the situation by making big plans. LIBRA (September 24 - October 23) Nostalgia overtakes you and an urge to look back into the past is strong. Perhaps you are thinking of tracing your family tree. It may be that you have received a letter or phone call that aroused your curiosity. Whatever it is, do be aware that any decisions made this week could have farreaching effects, for the good as well as the ‘not so good’. SCORPIO (October 24 - November 22) When you start to worry too much about things, it is time to take a step back. Senseless worrying is when you really cannot do anything to change the situation. Take into account how, in the past, worrying has affected your wellbeing. Maybe it is time to walk away and take another path entirely. Some may not be happy about this. You must come first now. SAGITTARIUS (November 23 - December 21) This is a creative week and one in which you seek to find your talents. For some time now you have toyed with the idea of joining a club or group. This will enhance your social life and bring you laughter. Although your confidence has been a little

LEO

(July 24 - August 23)

A close relationship seems to be changing. You need to know why and maybe believe that you do. However, be sure to get all the facts. Asking outright questions of the person involved is your best chance of getting the right answers. Someone may urge you to ‘read between the lines’ but it is hardly necessary. lower than usual, you have the chance to impress someone important to you. CAPRICORN (December 22 - January 20) Life can get complicated at this time of the year and you may feel pulled in more than one direction. You are perfectly entitled to change your mind about an arrangement. Those who try to make you feel guilty may be thinking only of themselves, and what does that tell you? AQUARIUS (January 21 - February 19) There are enough people in this world who will be willing to tell you what to do. Although it is in your nature to value your freedom, have you been compromising? Think of the time you have left to get to grips with a particular situation. PISCES (February 20 - March 20) Your opinion of someone is in the process of changing. It is not through any particular action of theirs towards you, rather it is a feeling that you should not be involved with their

business. Trusting our instincts is something that we do not do enough. ARIES (March 21 - April 20) There is a lightness to this week that is welcome. After more than a little bit of aggravation and frustration of late it is overdue. Someone you believed had lost interest in you suddenly surfaces. You may be unsure of how to react, so save judgment. TAURUS (April 21 - May 21) A need to listen to your innermost feelings and needs has perhaps been overlooked. With the hustle and bustle of everyday life, philosophical thoughts are often pushed into a corner. Even so, you owe it to yourself to truly consider what you want as opposed to going along with what others want from you. GEMINI (May 22 - June 21) Someone you would not normally consider to be a friend shows an interest in you. Your immediate reaction may be joy or suspicion. In fact, you are not quite sure what to think. All the same, try to put aside preconceived ideas and give them a chance. CANCER (June 22 - July 23) Time is of the essence when pursuing a pet project this week. Having been given the opportunity to go ahead with a plan, do not waste time. Some opportunities do not come twice so be sure to show your enthusiasm.

SOUND OF THE WEEK High By The Beach By Lana Del Rey Record Label: Polydor Released: August 10, 2015 Recorded for her fourth studio album, Honeymoon. A pop ballad, it is more uptempo than her previous releases. The song is an airy electronic production and has a swooning orchestral organ arrangement. Del Rey sings with a hazy and clear breathy vocal, in an octave just above a whisper. Many claim it is her best and most catchiest release.

2. Reflective salt flats, Bolivia. The perfect place to take those ‘walking on air or water’ photos, the Salar de Uyuni is the world’s largest salt flat. Prehistoric lakes were transformed and covered in a thick crust of salt, resulting in a flat so reflective it perfectly mirrors the sky above. It covers an area of 10,582 square kilometres and is so flat the altitude variation is under one metre over the entire area. 3. Rainbow trees, Hawaii. Although one could be forgiven for thinking rainbow trees were something drawn by imaginative children, they really do exist in Kailua, Hawaii. The Eucalyptus deglupta is a tall species found naturally in New Britain, New Guinea, Ceram, Sulawesi and Mindanao. Patches of outer bark are shed at different times of the year, revealing a bright green inner bark which gradually matures

and darkens to shades of blue, purple, orange and then maroon. 4. Ghost trees, Pakistan. This spooky sight was formed as an unexpected side-effect of flooding in parts of Pakistan. As water levels rose, millions of spiders climbed trees to escape the floods, cocooning them in silky webs as they went. The scale of the flooding and the time it took to recede left trees shrouded in ghostly capes of web. 5. Blood Falls, Antarctica. This natural phenomenon is caused by a flow of iron oxide tainted salt water which runs from the tongue of the Taylot Glacier onto the icy surface of West Lake Bonney in the Taylor Valley in Victoria Land, East Antarctica. From a distance it can look like the glacier is bleeding into the lake. 6. Floating lights, Maldives. Vaadhoo Island in the Maldives is the perfect place to gaze at the Glowing Blue waves, which seem to be floating lights mirroring the stars. The phenomenon is in fact caused by marine microbes called phytoplankton, which seem to glow in the dark.

7. Pillars of light, Moscow. This visual phenomenon in the Russian capital is caused by the reflection of light from ice crystals with near horizontal parallel planar surfaces, but looks just like shafts of light rise up to the skies. 8. Natural underground springs, Mexico. Known as Cenotes these natural sinkholes result from the collapse of limestone bedrock exposing groundwater underneath. Swimming is permitted in some, an amazing experience. 9. Dirty thunderstorms. Also known as volcanic lightening, dirty storms happen when electrical charges result from rock fragments, ash and ice particles in volcanic plumes colliding. Large amounts of water released by eruptions are believed to help fuel accompanying thunderstorms. 10. Underwater forest, Kazakhstan. Kaindy Lake is an idyliic lake in the Tian Shan Mountains. It was formed after an earthquake in 1911 that caused a major landslide and resulted in a natural dam appearing. Over time, rainwater filled the valley to create the lake, leaving the impression that armies of trees are growing under the surface and peeking out.

Gabriel Allon, an art expert and spy - with a bit of assassin thrown in for good measure returns for a new adventure. When an iconic member of the British Royal family, who is loved for her beautiful looks and charitable works, but is resented by her ex-husband and his mother, is killed when her yacht is bombed, only one man can track down her killer, Gabriel Allon. The bombing seems to be the work of old IRA bombmaker Eamon Quinn, who sells his services to the highest bidder. He is also the man who is blamed for the death of Allon’s son. From here the story thickens alarmingly fast, moving from the glamorous island of Saint Barthelemy to the mean streets of West Belfast to a cottage on the cliff tops of Cornwall. The story brings in old grudges, new threats and breathtaking twists that will hold readers spellbound from its first few pages to its heartstopping conclusion. A spy novel from one of the best.

A genuine war hero who deserves every benefit going JUST a line to say how proud the family of Ernest Hall, former Far East prisoner of war, who was 100 years old, (as per your Costa del Sol edition front page story 30 July–5 August) should be, and how humble we his fellow countrymen and women should be. A real hero who failed to mention in the article that all those freed from the Japanese POW camps were made to pay for their ‘subsistence whilst in enemy hands’ by the British Government after the war!!! Absolutely shocking, but true! One would hope Mr Hall is receiving his winter fuel allowance, summer cooling benefit, and anything he requires in his old age. God bless you, Mr Hall, and all your generation who gave us our present-day freedom. Pompey Gary, Benalmadena (Malaga)

Festival rip-off MY granddaughter and her partner recently attended the Dreambeach festival at Villaricos. They had paid for tickets to get in but, to their amazement and disgust, they were charged €18 (eighteen) to leave!! Not only that but they were charged the same amount for just two drinks. As they were just visitors to Spain, and spoke no Spanish, what could they do but pay up? Needless to say, they will not return to a Spanish pop festival and will tell their friends to do likewise.

MAY I through your Letters column express a big thank you to the lifeguards/socorristas at the Tropicana Beach, El Faro. Today when we were leaving the beach, my partner tried to climb on to a small ledge leading on to a pathway. Unfortunately, she lost her balance and fell backwards onto some small rocks. I was behind her and managed to prevent her head falling on to the rocks, which would have made things more serious. However, she landed on her left hip and was unable to get up. This incident took place approximately 20 metres from the lifeguard lookout post and they were on the scene immediately. They took my partner to the lookout post and treated the bruise on her hip. Throughout they were very professional and even offered to escort my partner across the main road to our car as I was laden with beach chairs, parasol, towels, etc. The downside of all this was despite the beach being very busy and a cry from my partner as she fell backwards, only a young Spanish couple came to see if they could assist. Disappointing to think it could have been something more serious yet no one bothered to come and see if they could help. Thank you again the lifeguards/socorristas.

(again not the case in Russia). Putin makes sure he wins the elections and when he has to stand down he makes sure he has a puppet in place. How does he do this? Simple, you can vote for him, vote for someone else or not vote at all. If you don’t want to vote for Putin then you simply don’t vote at all. If Putin supporters get the slightest hint that someone either intends to vote against or actually votes against him, they are subjected to violent abuse. Ian Terry (by email)

More rubbish AFTER reading a recent letter on your page about the rubbish piling up in the street, I went to the local council to ask about ours. We have been looking at a smelly pile of waste overflowing for four bins and a skip for two weeks. Their answer was: “It gets cleared regularly.” I asked how regularly because it’s been there for two weeks. They said: “Regularly,” and then I was asked to leave. If bi-weekly is regular, is it any wonder there are rats running around in the street? Bernard, Fuengirola (Malaga)

Load of bull WITH regard to Mike Walsh’s article in last week’s edition, I have no doubt that there may be 1,400,000 Ukrainian passport holders wanting to move to Russia; however, there is a very strong possibility that the vast majority of these are actually ethnic Russians. Wherever you go in the former soviet states you will find large numbers of ethnic Russians. To this day they gen-

erally remain loyal to Mother Russia and firmly believe that the country they are living in should remain part of the Russian Federation (Putin’s new Soviet Union) and it’s no surprise that with so many actual non-pro-Russian people in Ukraine many of whom are looking toward Europe, the ethnic Russians would be disenchanted There are 8,334,000 ethnic Russians in Ukraine making up 17.3 per cent of the population. In a snap poll last year, 73 per cent of Ukrainians said they favoured moving closer towards Europe. I believe in freedom of the press and freedom of expression (pity it is not actually the case in Mike Walsh’s beloved Russia as all media is government controlled in one way or another). I also believe in true democracy

CAN you or any of your readers tell me why roadworks to main streets through towns are carried out in the middle of summer when it causes the most hassle? In the winter when it would cause very little congestion, you never see anyone fixing the roads! But as soon as the tourist season starts, they block all the traffic… do they do it on purpose?

THE University of Warwick has recently carried out a survey into the causes of separation anxiety to try to identify any common factors. The survey showed almost 75 per cent of vets reported seeing up to five cases per month with the other 25 per cent seeing more than this. That totals to one case every single week for every vet in the country! Separation disorder is rarely the reaso n t h a t a p e t d o g o w n er w ill take the dog to the vet, since most owners do not understand the problem.

One of the worrying aspects of th e s u rv e y is t ha t 57 pe r c e nt of owners stated they could not keep their pets because of the barking or destruction. Male dogs between one and three years of age from the working or terrier breeds were most prone to these problems. This does not mean that you will never encounter barking or destruction if you have a fe ma le c o lli e a ge d four. T h e s u rv e y ha s s o far shown that in many cases, a change in family life or the home led to the onset of barking and destruction. Forty three per cent were due to a change in the owners working hours, followed b y 2 3 p er c e nt from h o u s e mo v in g, a new member of the

family showed a 19 per cent change, and 13 per cent from the death of a member of the family. Of course all surveys will produce different results. I personally find tha t que s tions pre pa re d by companies with a commercial interest and asked by vets who know little if anything about triggers, which cause behavioural problems, can be very misleading.

MALE DOGS: Between one and three are most prone.

Time out from the hutch PET rabbits are animals that need lots of attention, especially in Spain with its extremes of temperature, as well as interaction with their owners. But many owners abandon them or pay them little attention, according to the Scottish SPCA. There have been 550 rabbits taken into care since the start of 2015 and as many as 728 rabbits were rescued last year in their areas. While children often stop paying attention to them as soon as the novelty of having a pet wears off, the rabbits become lonely and isolated and are left to languish in small hutches with only the occasional visit by owners. Some owners complain that they don’t have time to look after their bunny, or say that the children have lost interest in

taking care of them. Mike Flynn, chief superintendent of the SPCA says, “These poor rabbits are literally left suffering in silence, living a miserable and lonely life.” In the UK, rabbits are the country’s third most popular pet but are, sadly, the most neglected, whereas in Spain they ranked seventh, but are typically more cared for. UK Legal provisions are not adequate either, with no laws regulating the size of hutches or whether they should be kept in pairs. The RSPCA recommends rabbits are kept in pairs and that there should be at least an hour’s daily exercise either in a rabbit proofed room or garden, suggesting a run-exercise area that is permanently attached to the main shelter.

OPINION & COMMENT

We deserve a better media

OUR VIEW PIC CREDIT: ACHICA – WIKIMEDIA COMMONS

MOST deceptive lie is the half lie with intention to deceive Mike Walsh Mike, based in Mediterranean Spain, is an international journalist, author and professional writer.

CONVENIENTLY, just six days from the anniversary of the downing of Malaysian Airlines flight MH17, mainstream media, in perfect harmony, focused on sections of a ‘Russian made BUK missile system being discovered near the scene of the incident. Russia has claimed it was not involved.’ Fact: This debris was not identified as such but we mustn’t let truth get in the way of a good story. This same media focused on trivia when damning evidence pointed to Washington and Kiev complicity. To this can be added the peculiar US, Ukraine and Dutch government ‘no comment’ response when asked to release vital evidence that would assist in getting to the cause of the tragedy. Mainstream media intention was clear: The most deceptive lie of all is the half lie with deliberate intention to deceive. It is common knowledge that Ukraine’s BUK missile systems are Russian made. In the same way NATO armaments are mostly American made.

BULL RUNS: Dangerous.

Taking bull by the horns

UKRAINIAN ARMY: Still uses BUK missiles, they went out of production in Russia in 1999. The Ukrainian Army still uses BUK missiles; they went out of production in Russia in 1999. Western media narrative is as beautifully orchestrated as the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra. Here is a clue: ‘The CIA owns everyone of any significance in the major media.’ Former CIA Director William Colby died suddenly after a freak canoe accident.

Here is another clue: ‘We’ll know our disinformation programme is complete when everything the American public believes is false,” CIA Director, 1981. It seems he got his wish. Two weeks before the outbreak of WWII, a solemn British Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain remarked, “History will judge the Press to have been the principle cause of war.”

Nevile Henderson, the British Ambassador to Berlin echoed the premier’s words. France’s President Lebrun and Foreign Minister warned the Press ‘not to abuse their so-called Press freedom.’ In September 1941, U.S Senator Clark: ‘Half a dozen men controlling the film industry clamour for war.’ I do think the public deserve a far more honest mainstream media.

Wildlife returning to the Costa IF IT carries on like this, David Attenborough himself will be paying us a visit WHEN we arrived here in 2006, the bird life was conspicuous by its absence - indeed wildlife as a whole was non-existent. Building was continuing unabated and it was not conducive to our little furry and feathered friends who had obviously scarpered to quieter and greener surroundings. Then construction came to a shuddering halt and on the tracts of land previously earmarked for new houses - in some cases where infrastructure had commenced and been abandoned - Peter Rabbit and his pals started to arrive.

It wasn’t Watership Down, but it was good enough for the bunnies. Sparrows were the first birds to re-colonise this area, which is expected from these resourceful little blokes; then a few wagtails, and more recently families of blackbirds. There is a Hoopoe or two, finches and - because of the rabbit population - hawks are quite a common sight.

THE number of deaths of members of the public who have taken part in Spain’s bull running festivities has been shockingly high in 2015. During the weekend of August 16-18 alone, four participants were killed in bull running events and a total of 10 individuals have died taking part so far this summer. While bull running and bullfighting activities remain controversial, when so many spectators or participants are killed or injured through these celebrations, there surely has to be some serious attempt to prevent further fatalities. Different regions of Spain have different rules regarding these events, with some even allowing children to accompany their parents in the festivity, and while each municipality has their own regulations governing these events, incidents still occur. As debates about the cruelty of Spanish customs such as bullfighting and bull running continue, the first priority must be to address the issues regarding the safety of those taking part. It may be traditional to celebrate events like these but when so many people are dying for the sake of a festivity, isn’t it time organisers seriously consider the safety procedures of these celebrations and take measures that will stop more people being killed? The current complacent attitude that “these things happen” should be challenged, and formal regulations that ensure public safety should be established across Spain.

BEST GUIDE TO LOCAL NEWS

Will National Day balloons be banned? AS part of the celebrations, those attending the Gibraltar National Day rally, which takes place on September 10 each year, release balloons which either float across the border or land in the sea. It seems to be quite a harmless event (if perhaps irritating to some) but the Gibraltar Ornithological and Natural History Society (GONHS) disagrees. So worried is the society by this event that it has written to both the Gibraltar Government and the SelfDetermination for Gibraltar Group (SDGG) calling for this particular act of celebration to be banned. Their argument is that the release of so many balloons is likely to be detrimental to the marine environment as the deflated balloons can be mistaken for food and can take from months to years to decay.

Back pain when driving? LONG distance driving often results in back pain, so read below for some tips to stay comfortable

By Estelle Mitchell www.thebodyworksclinic.com AS August draws to a close many people are preparing to drive home again and long distance driving often results in back pain. Lowered, tipped-back seats make the legs too straight, placing strain on the hamstrings, pelvis and lower back. The neck then tilts forward to look ‘straight ahead.’ A recent survey found that male drivers tend to sit with legs fully extended straining the back muscles, and women tend to sit too close to the wheel, tightening back muscles.

BACK PAIN: Apply an ice pack after a long journey. So here are my top tips on how you can stay comfortable while driving:

Are you straight? With your hands in prayer position they should be in the

centre of the steering wheel. Now place both hands on the steering wheel at ‘10’ and ‘2’ - you should see equal amounts of both legs. Enough headroom? You should be able to comfortably place a fist on top of your head. Check your right leg After driving for a short while put your hands on the steering wheel and look down again. Is your right leg level with your left? Check your wallet If you carry your wallet or phone in a back pocket this changes the position of your hips. Check your left leg Do you float your left leg above the pedal? This can cause muscle fatigue in the leg as well as strain in your ankles.

How’s your seat? Get a small cushion or rolled up towel and apply gentle pressure at waist height. Your elbows should be gently bent with hands on the steering wheel and your back and thighs entirely against the seat. Relax Getting stressed can increase muscle tension. Every time you stop for a traffic light inhale and lift your shoulders high, then exhale and drop them down. On long journeys try and stop every one or two hours and walk. Apply an ice pack to the lower back for 10 minutes after a long journey to help relieve pain.

Are you sabotaging your desire for a healthy life? FitFoxy Looking Good, Staying Trim

THERE are so many fitness and health gurus, articles and products available in the health and fitness industry that quite often you can become extremely confused and rightly so. The diet industry in the UK alone is worth two billion. So there are a whole lot of companies out there making an absolute fortune from consistently bombarding us with all sorts of fitness and health solutions. There really is NO QUICK FIX to getting slim, fit and healthy. Common mistakes • Restricting your food I have done regular weigh-ins with clients for years; I can confirm that not one of them has ever had a basal metabolic rate under 1,150 kcal. This is the amount of energy in calorie value that their body needs to function if they were to do nothing more than sleep on a sofa all day. So my question is, how on earth do you expect your poor body

to function on a daily restricted intake of 600-800 calories? So your body goes into panic mode, thinks it is being starved and slows the metabolism right down to preserve fat stores. • Over-training Training at the gym for hours to the point of exhaustion, is counter-productive. Mix your sessions to include resistance training, cardio and High Intensity Training for around 45 minutes to an hour per session three to four times per week; this is plenty. • Alcohol Your biggest saboteur, it is laden with calories and has no nutritious value whatsoever. Your body cannot metabolise alcohol as it views it as poison, so as you are working off the alcohol calories, any food that is sitting in your stomach is busy being stored as fat.

More single women signing up for IVF FERTILITY starts to decline from the age of 31

GOING IT ALONE: Single women are turning to IVF. By Gemma Quinn

My top four tips: • Plan a long-term lifestyle change instead of following random fad diets. • Incorporate regular effective exercise into your life - minimum three hours per week. • Eat at least three well-balanced nutritious meals per day. • Limit alcohol to a weekend treat.

AN increasing number of single women are turning to IVF to have a baby. The number of women without a partner wanting fertility treatment has more than tripled in less than a decade with experts putting the rise down to

women putting their career first and then choosing to have a child on their own before it’s too late. An increased acceptance of both single-parent families and IVF in general is also thought to have played a part. In 2006, the number of single women with no partners regis-

tered at UK IVF clinics was 292. In 2013 it was 952. Fertility starts to decline in women from the age of 31 and by the age of 35 the decline is ‘significant’ prompting more women to have treatment, even if they have not yet found ‘the one’ and want to enter parenthood alone.

Spice Village, the name of quality MIX and match with the advice of the attentive staff By Wendy Ann Cowham INDIAN FOOD is internationally craved after, and many make it their lifelong mission to go in search of that perfect curry. Good news travels fast where food is concerned and good news begins at Spice Village Indian Restaurant in Urb Gaudalmansa, Estepona. The chef only uses the freshest ingredients and spices that are kind on the stomach for those who are normally wary of Indian cuisine. The secret of their success is all in the preparation, as the dishes are tailor made to suit the individualâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s intolerance to certain herbs and spices, so whatever age you are, you can still enjoy good Indian cuisine without the worry of allergy or upset. This new concept is catching on rapidly and is becoming increasingly popular with more mature diners. The philosophy of the owners is quite simple: No two people in the country will agree on the exact recipe of a favourite dish. Recipes are handed down from generation to generation, verbally in the kitchen and are closely guarded secrets in

most cases. But all agree, a dish is well cooked when the spices blend into the gravy and the meat. The spices should not have disparate flavours, or taste raw. No spice should overpower the other and be so intrusive as to completely hide the true taste of the vegetable or meat being cooked. It should help maintain and enhance the character of the dish, give it colour and fragrance and leave you wanting more! With this sentiment and practice within the kitchen, the proof is in the tasting, and this is what sets Spice Village apart from the rest. The menu includes Tandoori dishes, Masala, Korma, Bhuna, Rogan Josh, Jalfarezi, Chefâ&#x20AC;&#x2122;s special and many more. There are lots of traditional side dishes, so it is a good idea to mix and match with the advice from the attentive staff. Fine wine and Champagnes are also on offer, and should you want to order takeaway you can enjoy good food at home. SPICE VILLAGE is open Tuesday to Sunday 1.00pm to 4.00pm and 6.00pm to 11.00pm or call 951 278 286.

Paid Inheritance Tax in Spain? YOU may be due a refund... THE European Court of Justice decreed on September 3, 2014, that Spain is contravening European Union law because it treats residents and non-residents differently with regard to tax on inheritance and donations. The ruling means that non-residents who have inherited assets in Spain or have received them as a donation in the past are able to apply for a refund of the amount they were overcharged in tax. There are two claiming situations: Citizens who are non-resident and who have paid inheritance or donation tax during the past four years can now demand a refund of the difference between the amount of tax they were charged by the State and the amount they would have been charged if the relevant Autonomic Community tax

reduction had been applied. Citizens with residence in Spain who receive an inheritance abroad should pay the State and can claim the difference between the amounts of tax they were charged and the amounts they would have been charged in their residence Autonomic Community. If you have paid inheritance tax in Spain within the last four years, and the inheritor or the individual who passed were non-residents in Spain, we can help you recover almost 100 per cent of the taxes you have paid, via our legal partners.

INHERITANCE TAX: There are two claiming situations, BBH Legal can help you recover taxes paid.

Essential garden herbs MANY can withstand both summer and winter extremes Dick Handscombe

Gardening Corner By Spain’s best known expatriate gardening author living in Spain for 25 years.

MANY herbs can withstand both extreme summer and winter temperatures. Many are used for cooking, infusions, and natural remedies for plants - and humans - as well as for their perfume, flowers and attraction for butterflies and other beneficial insects. No wonder herbs are an essential feature of Spanish gardens. Herbs can be fitted into gardens of all sizes in various ways: • Planted in pots or larger containers, either in the garden or by the kitchen door. Or of course in a pa-

tio courtyard or the terrace of an apartment. • In a dedicated herb garden with a squared, wagon wheel or raised spiral, or medieval tied knot design. • Alongside the vegetable plot or paths. • Mixed in with alpines and succulents in a rockery. • Mixed into the front and mid depth of a mixed perennial/shrub bed. • Creeping thyme and dichondra in shady areas. • As internal hedges. Rosemary, bay and lavender are especially useful. • Mints are best planted i n l a rg e , s u n k e n p o t s o r barrels as the roots can spread evasively. • In the vegetable garden borage, cultivated and wild garlic, fennel and artichokes, tagetes menor not only brighten up a plot but are also useful companion

plants that help protect vegetables from plagues l i k e c a r r o t f l y, b l a c k a n d white fly and swarming beetles. A patch of comfrey has several uses. HARVESTING HERBS For cooking and salads, best picked fresh as required. Can also be sundried and sealed in containers. Also try freezing in ice cubes for soups and sauces. Pick seeds such as co-

riander and anis and dry in the sun. For pot-pourri, pick a mix of leaves and flowers at any time. For adding to oils, pick flowers like marigolds and hypericum when in full flower. For infusions, pick fresh as required or sun dry in the summer and dry for winter use. © Dick Handscombe www.gardenspain.com August 2015

We are nationally registered by the Spanish Ministry of the Interior (164640) but only with your support can we give the equine a voice.

If you have room in your heart and home we would love to hear from you. We do not put our dogs to sleep - no matter how old, they are safe with us. For day to day needs and to pay for veterinary care, we much appreciate the support we receive.

In the olden days I always thought that TVR built a car, put it on sale, then found out how it handled…. Usually when the customer wrote to the factory complaining about how dead he was. Some might say...

Racing ahead with the special BMW Concept M4 GTS FEATURES new technologies that will be released in mass production models in the future

Booster seats risk

NEW BMW: Concept M4 GTS.

A NEW crash test by car seat manufacturer Britax has raised concerns about children’s booster seats. Parents are being encouraged to get rid of the booster cushion seat for children aged four to 12 and instead replace it with much more secure highback booster car seats which protect children at the sides as well as the back and have secure seat belt guides to keep them in place.

Pic credit: BMW Group

By Carol Irving A NEW high-performance model has been unveiled by BMW’s M Division that promises race track power combined with every day reliability. BMW’s special models such as the BMW M3 range have focused not just on efficiency but on technology that allows drivers to power up their drive, on

or off the race track. The new BMW Concept M4 GTS is conceived on the race track but is actually road legal and features new technologies that will be released in mass production models in the future. Making its debut at Monterey Car Week in California, the special designed model is limited in terms of the numbers produced but shows off what

is possible on the road with the latest technology, giving us a glimpse of where the automobile industry will be taking us in the near future. One such innovation is the water injection system that increases output and torque but ensures the turbocharged engine’s stability as well as the carbon fibre reinforced plastic bonnet, which lowers the car’s centre of gravity.

Another is the rear lights OLEDs (organic light emitting diodes) technology which are more effective than LEDs in lighting up the way ahead, illuminating the full surface rather than just a single point. The metallic grey exterior and wheels in alloy and acid orange complete the model’s futuristic vision of the road ahead.

Miraflores 2 Wood Pairs FORMAT consisted of seven ends, with three groups playing a round robin

PROUD WINNER: Tim Hemming (rt) with his trophy. THE day was an individual Stableford competition, and also the Torreblanca PGA Championship. The course was in great condition, the greens more receptive and touch slower than normal. The proud winner was Tim Hemming with 35 points playing off 5.2, now cut to 4.1. Second was Bob Sawyer with 34 points playing off 4, cut to 3.5, and third was Mike Broomby with 33 playing off 22.8, cut to 22.5. Nearest the pin in one on hole 16, was Felicity Broomby, nearest the pin in two on hole 3, was Tony Anderson.

ON August 13, stalwarts from Miraflores Bowling Club plus a few visiting ‘heavyweights,’ continued to battle it out under the Costa del Sol sun, at the popular, bi-weekly, one day, two wood pairs sets competition. The format consisted of the now familiar sets of seven ends, with three groups playing a round robin. The entry included some very strong players, but the bookies’ favourites would have been Tom Rodgers, (Spanish Squad) with Terry Morgan, (Team Malaga), Terry Barrett, (twice winner of this event), with Garry Aldridge, (Team Malaga) and host club bowlers, Andy Salmon and Jeff Turner. In the event, Tom and Terry were drawn in a tough group and lost to Terry and Garry.

PAIRS COMP: Finalists Chris and Juan (left), Andy and Jeff, winners (rt). In turn, Terry and Garry lost to Robert Wright and Stuart Thacker. Andy and Jeff, who had never won this event,

played superbly all day and cruised to the final, where they met the popular Chris Jewson and Juan Abel, welcome visi-

tors from Benalmadena BC. The final was a very one-sided affair, with Andy and Jeff winning in straight sets.

And the winner of the Major Wager is... HERE we reflect on the successes and failures we have seen Getting in the swing with Campbell Lamont

By Tony Myles THE final Major of the year is now concluded and we can reflect on the successes and failures that we have witnessed at each location. The Masters is always the first Major event and it is permanently located at Augusta National Park. The outstanding player of the Masters and of the year was Jordan Spieth, who opened the competition with nine birdies

in the first round and remained on top of the leaderboard throughout. In Campbell’s Major Wager our eventual winner placed large amounts on Rory and Jordan. Nobody risked anything on Hideki who was fifth. The US Open was once again the domain of young Jordan. Still only 21 and claiming his second Major. The also-rans from the remaining 155 players included Louis Oosthuizen, Cameron Smith, Dustin Johnson and Branden Grace. The Major Wager punters skilfully avoided each of them. The Open - When you play golf in Scotland you can always expect that the weather will have an influence and indeed it did just that to such an extent that the final round was delayed until the Monday and

o n t h i s o c c a s i o n J o r d a n ’s fans would have been in agony as they watched him four putt on a par three. The plaudits go to Zach Johnson who collected the Claret Jug following his emotional speech. The other names in the frame included Marc Leishman. The PGA Championship wrapped up the Major season at one of the circuit’s toughest courses, Whistling Straits alongside Lake Michigan. The final result was a popular win for Jason Day with Jordan close behind. Rory had returned to competitive golf very early according to many qualified experts who agreed that he would need three months rather than six weeks to

allow his damaged ankle to heal. The Campbell Lamont Major Wager is now conc l u d e d a n d i t w a s V E RY close. Most wagers were placed on the rock-solid favourites and no one really found any of the outsiders which would have made a significant impact on the results, which are as follows: Close but no cigar - Ann Gibson was third with an impressive 1,538.9 points. Second and sooooo close was Ian Evans who secured 1,573.75 points. But the overall winner, who will bring a partner for golf and lunch at La Sella with Campbell is GEORGE BRADDICK. George scored 1,592.5. We l l d o n e G e o r g e ! D o y o u have any tips for next year?
