s we go to press it would appear that none of the foreign language borough-based FM radio stations have been granted licences in the current round of allocating local FM slots. Some owners are already alleging degrees of discrimination.

One small step for Tenerife!

To acquire an FM slot owners/stations had to apply and win ‘points’ which were allocated under a number of different headings and added up with those winning top points in each borough to be awarded the licence. None of the well-known foreign language

Oasis FM owner Chris Elkington told us that the government promised “to give local stations priority over those from the peninsula (they didn’t do that); to legalise two English and two German stations (they didn’t do that); and that no holding company would get more than five licences and they didn’t keep that promise either”. Chris said that people had spent a lot of money

in the application process, but the announcement of the licences “has made a joke of the whole process”, adding that in his opinion, “we have all been discriminated against”.

Joe Schacher, joint owner with his wife Tina Straub, of Island Connections, which includes the German language station Express FM, was outraged at the decision. “Just weeks ago with the local elections coming up, all the politi-

cal parties, including those in power, were busy telling us, the foreign residents,how much we matter to them. But with this move they have shown what they really think of us. Up to half of the resident population of South Tenerife is foreign and their (radio) needs are being blatantly ignored”.

Oasis FM along with many other applicants are appealing the decision, as they are entitled to do, and will be staying on air for now.

The Festival, taking place in Tenerife and La Palma from June 20th to 25th is the brainchild of Dr. Garik Israelian, an astrophysicist at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (Canarian Astrophysics Institute, IAC) and, backed by several international scientific institutions and organisations, will celebrate astronomy in a popular, appealing and dynamic way.

The Festival is timed to honour the legendary cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, who became the first man in space on 12 April, 1961. This ceremony will be held in the Magma Art & Congress Centre, Tenerife, in the presence of leading astronauts and scientists such as Buzz Aldrin and Armstong as well as Gagarin’s companions, Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman cosmonaut, and Alexei Leonov, the first man to perform a space walk.

Welsh wonder

Becky Brewerton is Tenerife Ladies Match Play champion ian Kristie Smith 8&6 in the matchplay format. She then ousted 79-time tournament champion Laura Davies in the second round of matchplay on Saturday with a birdie on the 19th hole. Davies told Brewerton on Twitter: “Keep swinging like that and you’ve got a big summer ahead.”

Tenerife’s new golfing champion, Becky Brewerton, celebrates her win

W

elsh woman Becky Brewerton fired a four under par 68 in the strokeplay format at the Tenerife Ladies Match Play at Golf Las Américas on Sunday June 11th, earning a one shot victor y over her nearest rivals Australian Nikki Garrett and Spain’s rising star Carlota Ciganda, who shared second on her professional debut.

It was Brewerton’s third victory as a professional following wins at the 2007 English Open and the 2009 Spanish Open.

She had previously finished second three times in Tenerife, including once on the same golf course as an amateur in 2003.

“I’ve finished second three times in Tenerife so it’s nice to

finally get a win and obviously it’s been a while since I’ve won, so it’s a brilliant feeling,” said Brewerton.

“I think Tenerife is a place where I always get a little bit of luck as well. I holed a chip shot, holed a bunker shot, I had a couple of nice bounces out there as well. I made lots of birdies and

threw in a couple of hairy moments as well. A few mistakes but just about managed to get it done. I’ve been playing well all week and it’s nice to obviously finish off well.”

Brewerton had secured the most comprehensive victory of the opening day on Friday, when she defeated Austral-

Brewerton said: “It’s funny: I had great memories when I got back to the course. I remembered all the holes straight away. I was pretty sure this is where I’d finished second as an amateur in the Tenerife Ladies Open and I’ve actually got a picture up on my wall, from the course here, from under one of the palm trees from my dad, when he was caddying for me.” She hopes that the win will kick-start her season, as she has recently recovered from a foot injury, which started in Portugal. She said: “This is the main start of the season coming up with some massive tournaments. I’m absolutely desperate to make The Solheim team so I’ve just got to try and make as many points as possible.”

Although Solheim Cup points were not awarded, her performance will certainly have caught the eye of European Captain Alison Nicholas, who will be making notes for her team selection ahead of the big matchplay event at Killeen Castle in Ireland from September 23-25.

The new barriers are designed to reduce motorbike deaths.

he Tenerife Cabildo is currently installing new bar riers designed with motorbikes and bikers in mind.

The new protective barriers will be erected along particular stretches of road that experience heavy traffic usage on a daily basis, such as the TF-5, TF-1 and TF-4 motorways and the TF-68, TF-1 and TF-5 roads. Altogether 2,890 metres of this kind of barrier will be placed on Tenerife roads at points that, taking velocity, surface and road specifications into consideration, are considered black spots. The move has been made following consultation with the Tenerife motorists association as well as the national road safety association and motorbikers themselves.

Statistics from EuroRap, the European Road Assessment Programme, show that “hitting a crash barrier is a factor in eight to 16 per cent of rider deaths, and riders are 15 times more likely to be killed than car occupants.

Barrier support posts are particularly aggressive, they can cause a five-fold increase in injury severity compared to the average motorcycle crash”.

‘Normal’ crash barriers are designed with car users

in mind - cars, and to a lesser extent, heavy vehicles. The European testing standard makes no mention of motorcycles. On average two-wheeler deaths in Europe average 16 per cent of all road deaths, but to date Spain is one of the countries that posts death rates above the average.

However motorcycle-friendly systems have been shown to halve fatalities.

Where the new barriers are/will be

TF-4, left hand side direction Santa Cruz, from km 3,590 to 3,489.

TF-5 (completed) right hand side direction North, from km 47,900 to 48,050, and left hand side, towards Santa Cruz, from km 4,420 to 4,410.

TF-5 (planned) right hand side direction Nor th, from km 40,250 to 40,340 km 40,360 to 40,410, and km 53,810 to 53,920.

TF-1 (planned), direction South, km 27,980 to 28,210, km 29,540 to 29,760, km 30,970 to 31,090, km 78,060 to 78,240, km 78,710 to 78,860 and km 80,580 to 80,640.

TF-1 (planned) direction Santa Cruz km 78,620 to 78,390, from km 74,570 to 74,520, from km 64,120 to 63,740, from km 51,390 to 50,920 and from km 30,280 to 30,180.

Hospital holidays

Ward closure?

See no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil

By Barbara Belt

S The director of the Canarian Health Service, (SCS), Juana María Reyes, admitted recently that they were considering closing a ward in the HUC Hospital Universitario de Canarias during the summer holidays to allow doctors to take holidays though she said no final decision had yet been taken.

Ironically the director was speaking at a press conference held to announce details of the hospital’s recent acquisition of the European Stamp of Excellence. She told press that the Ward closure proposal was a necessar y “rationalisation of resources”, during a time when professionals were taking their holidays.

It is believed that the plan would be to close the short term stay surgical ward during the summer months.

tories of late, of reduced wage payments, non existent sick pay, disappearing Social Security contributions, evaporating pensions, unfair dismissals, and many other variations on the rich theme of compromised workers’ rights are, sadly, not unknown on La Gomera. Neither is the practice of using public funding to set up employment contracts that can be used to buy votes.

During the recent local elections, island ‘authorities’ surpassed themselves, reaching dizzy new heights of blatant corruption and disregard for the law. We know the details because these are all traditional island practices, although they generally escape official censure.

This year’s political bun-fight may ser ve to finally wobble complacency. Should the perpetrators manage to continue in power, which is probable, general opinion is that pending, long-term legal charges

will prove impossible to delay further and that will be that.

A grip, even one of iron, on the island’s political affairs and coffers will hopefully prove difficult to maintain from prison, or at a disgraced removal from public office. We dream on, to a backdrop of the latest, dirtiest batch of dirty deeds.

Short term, grace and favour work contracts - bestowed by island and municipal councils on the faithful - are the key to this continuing story, and constitute a major blight on island life. They preserve the status quo by perfectly exploiting a need to earn an income and a desire for an easy life with fear of reprisal.

If you want a nice cushy little number for six months or a year, with unemployment benefit rights for the same period afterwards, you keep the powers that be sweet. A lot of

families have been maintained for decades by this system and, in the absence of other employment, are understandably anxious to continue.

Nothing changes, largely due to this wonderful tool for keeping La Gomera firmly under the control of its present day caciques. Caciques were feudal landlords who once owned the island, and by extension, the islanders. This island had the bad luck to slip seamlessly from their tyranny to that of their present-day equivalents, the old school politicians - the Almighty lashed to the helm-associated business cronies.

Ever yone knows who got work contracts in exchange for votes. Ever yone knows two signatures were needed.

One to accept the work contract, the other for the postal voting form that had to be completed in favour of he-whohad-offered-the-job and then

handed over, there and then, to his henchmen, ensuring the bought votes were counted.

And they were.

The recent elections showed a national swing against the ruling party. La Gomera, however remained a curious oasis of calm, testament to the efficiency of such tactics in maintaining the status quo, no matter how disagreeable.

As we go to press, the municipality of Valle Gran Rey is in the position of still not knowing who its new mayor and councillors are. Unfired, celebratory rockets gather dust in their box and all because an unprecedented proliferation of political parties canvassed the valley for our votes this year.

There were five in all, the main objective being to ensure that some kind of change occur red. Gover nment by consensus was always going to

be the result of such a move, and that will happen once all has been resolved. But therein lies a story.

The reason for the delay in forming whatever alliances are expedient is very predictable: more political dirty dancing, with rigged electoral lists, opened votes and legitimate postal votes disallowed. There are lots of examples. One elderly couple were surprised to discover that fourteen unknown persons were registered as voters living in their small house. Other, glaringly obvious, discrepancies were unearthed by four of the political parties, who carefully scrutinised electoral lists. The names of three hundred and sixty would-be, bought voters were excluded after their inclusion was denounced!

This was a triumph to be celebrated, but was short-lived as, incredibly, these voters were allowed to vote when a last minute, morning of the elections turnaround on the decision was secured.

Another bout of denouncing has now called all the above practices into question, if not into the limelight where they belong. Hence the delay in knowing the real election results for Valle Gran Rey. What we need in La Gomera, apart from a radical cull of major political parasites, are neutral obser vers to ensure that elections are no longer rigged. If it can happen in third world dictatorships and dubious military regimes, why not here, where we are all fed up to the teeth with our see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil, monkey status.

Gay tourism

Hang out the rainbow flag T

enerife has an enormous potential to attract the hugely profitable gay tourism sector if it wants to, according to Javier Checa, the charming and debonair president of Expogays.com and of the consolidated reservasgays. com booking company.

During his presentation of Expogays.com, the largest and only international gay tourism fair in the world, to be held in Torremolinos in October, Javier was brutally honest about his opinion of Tenerife. As an expert in tourism, he has known the island for many decades and he saw the capital,Santa Cruz de Tenerife, as “grey�, decrying the number of businesses for rent or sale on the main shopping street. He claimed that Gayfriendly establishments need to be better publicised and gay tourists need to know that they are not only coming to an area where being gay is tolerated, but that they are welcomed with open arms.

The presentation of the first Expogays fair was held in Gran Canaria last year where there are 83 registered gay-friendly establishments. Surprisingly here in Tenerife there are 86, but it is nowhere near as strong a destination for this sector as its neighbours, who were very quick to see the value of the pink euro. Gay couples tend to have higher incomes. In Spain the average annual wage is â‚Ź19,000, but within the gay community here the average is â‚Ź22,000.

They tend to have lower home costs as very few have children and for the same reason their holiday time can be taken at any time of the year.

Javier Checa during the presentation

Last year’s Expogays saw 15,000 people at the fair and enjoying the multiple events organised in and around the town’s ‘gay village’ with its 150 gay friendly establishments and this year’s event is being presented in Manchester, Cologne, Dusseldorf, Tenerife, Bonne, Berlin, Malta, Mykenos and Athens. As a booking agency, Javier underlined that they like to sell the islands as they are a safe destination for gays. Gran Canaria is the number one gay destination in the world and he believes that Tenerife could be up there with them if they wanted to be. Whilst the administrations drag their feet and homophobes sneer, their other halves across the water are laughing all the way to the

bank. “Tenerife must be clear about whether they want gay tourism or not,� he declared.

He believes that 15-30 per cent of the gay holiday traffic could be interested in Tenerife as a destination.

This year there are: 200 countries signed up for the fair; a new campaign in peticióngay. com demanding that the EU respect the rights of gays to be treated as other citizens independently of what the local region, country or individual political party decides; a bloggers get together to help them promote themselves and their events; a singles meet and greet with over 1,000 people already subscribed; a gay football cup, a gay chess championship, Gayvision song contest (last year’s

winner became the Spanish candidate for Eurovision); gay cinema, gay dancing competition and a raft of workshops and chats.

This is what Javier calls organising a gay “event� which will undoubtedly draw in thousands and fill the local hotels, restaurants and clubs to overflowing and this is what he says is needed here. You can start with something small, a literary prize, a gastronomy tour and try and tie other events around it, but the message was clear, the establishments themselves need to band together and get the administrations to move if they want to see the business. A good start would be for them to have a stall in Expogays. Gran Canaria already do.

His advice was to take advantage of what is happening in the news to promote gay events. He and his Expogays team were recently involved in a “cheeky� giveaway of several tons of cucumbers in Madrid.

In fact he’s considering making this year’s mascot of the fair a cucumber!

Javier also underlined the importance of not underestimating certain markets, especially in America and South America where there is huge potential. “We tend to think of Latin Americans as the waiters and immigrants we see working here, but there are also lawyers, doctors and others with high income,� and a percentage of those are gay and potential clients.

Gay tourists on average spend 60 per cent more in a destination than anybody else and there are between 39 and 45 million possible customers in the 12 most developed countries with a spending power per year of ₏100,000 million. The home market is estimated at three million gays with annual spending of ₏72 million and the biggest customers in Spain, the UK market, has an estimated six million gays who spend around ₏53 million a year. They will spend an average of ₏1,500 a year on a holiday, around ₏130 a day. These days, that’s not to be sniffed at. So raise the rainbow standard high!

Cit Sur

3,400 kids can’t be wrong! “Over 3,400 children from schools in South Tenerife took part in the CIT Sur 2011 ‘friendly tourism’ campaign�, the association’s president Maria Rosales announced recently.

In its 12th year, and in conjunction with eight local councils, attraction parks, the airport authority AENA, hotels and other tourist related industries, the aim of the annual campaign is to raise awareness among Tenerife South’s young people of the importance of tourism to the local economy, what keeping tourists happy involves, and why being nice to tourists is a vital cog in the economic wheel here. Children, from public and private schools in the region, and free of charge, visited many different touristrelated institutions. At Reina Sofía airport they saw all the facets of the airport’s operation, from check-in to take off, the emergency services and the falconr y section which works to keep the airport’s skies safe from birds. During hotel visits they were shown

how each member of staf f has to work to keep the place in top condition, from checkin to room service, catering to laundry, not to mention a free breakfast after their tour.

Groups were also taken on different excursions including to the dolphinarium at Aqualand, the Castillo de San Miguel, Parque Las Aguilas, the Camel Park, the Piramides de Gßímar and the Reserva San Blas among others.

At the end of each trip students were asked to fill out a questionnaire and each student was also entered into a draw, the winners of which were also chosen at the press conference to detail the success of the campaign. Top prize of a weekend in a five star hotel in South Tenerife for the winning students and his/her parents went to Fernando Pazos Placeres, a pupil at CEIP La Cumbrita.

Harvest

Wine woe for Lanzarote?

Lanzarote’s thriving wine sector faces a crisis next year due to its inability to meet demand for local brands.

After years of bumper sales, particularly in export markets such as Germany, the prospects are gloomier this time because the harvest will be well down on 2010. “We will have a fuller picture at the end of the month but are already bracing ourselves for a figure of around 800,000 kilos, half of what was produced last year� explained Javier Betancort, head of the island’s wine board.

1.6 million bottles of wine were produced by the island’s bodegas in 2010 but the figure for this year will be considerably lower. Although the relative shortage could see prices increase, the extra revenue per bottle will not compensate for the overall fall in earnings suffered by grape-growers and the bodegas.

The bad news comes just as the wine board has negotiated a fact-finding visit to the island

by British and German wine importers in the autumn.

Tragic cargo

Air France wreckage recovery Las Palmas Port received one of its most unusual, not to say poignant, visits recently in the shape of a cargo ship carrying bodies and wreckage from the Air France mid-Atlantic crash of two years ago.

104 bodies recovered from the seabed were put on the ship for transfer to France for examination and identification, along with pieces of the wreckage which will be painstakingly reassembled at the Airbus HQ in Toulouse in a bid to find out what happened to the plane during its stricken flight from Rio de Janeiro to Paris in June 2009.

The bodies were brought to the surface by mini-submarines from a depth of almost four km (2.4 miles). Given the sensitive nature of the cargo, the stop-over of the vessel, the River Seine, was given little publicity by the authorities in Las Palmas.

T

hese fiestas are celebrated in many coastal towns around the islands, but one of the best to visit during the festivities is Puerto de la Cruz.

On Wednesday 22nd and Thursday 23rd June, all the public fountains in the town are decorated with branches, a tradition which is called the Enrame de Los Chorros, in which the residents celebrate the fecundity and prosperity which these sources of water contributed to in years gone by.

For this, flowers, unripe fruit and vegetables were used. The oldest fountain is the Chorro de Cupido, a mute witness to the history of Puerto de la Cruz where the stones which it is made of once formed part of the Convento de Santo Domingo.

The Chorro del Muelle is also significant, as it is closely linked with the activity of the district’s fishermen. Other jets which also receive the attention are the Chorro Cuaco, and those of Mequinez, El Durazno and Las Maretas.

On Thursday 23rd, after 6pm, the Noche de San Juan (Feast of St. John/Midsummer Night) begins at Playa Jardín. There are children’s workshops and the bonfires are lit, followed by live music and fireworks. This is perhaps the most magic night,

Puerto de la Cruz

Fiestas of San Juan

goatherds of Puerto de la Cruz and others from a variety of locations in La Orotava brought their animals down to the old fishing dock. When they had bathed them, and while the animals were drying, their owners went to one of the nearby bars to exchange opinions, have a few drinks and perhaps do some business. Meanwhile, the boys of the district would fight with the children of the goatherds, until they were called upon to milk the goats and sell their milk in the port or the nearby streets.

when fire is worshipped. Bonfires are lit all over the borough, giving full rein to the purifying effect of the purifying flames which are nourished with the junk that you no longer need.

But it is not only the unwanted that is transformed, the soul too is purified and the bad times and negative influences are exorcised. This is a time for rituals, even for sceptics,

when we declare our innermost sentiments and desires and we put them in the hands of those intangible energies that we don’t understand but that we know will do their work.

Tens of thousands of people come to Playa Jardín and join in with the fiesta, bathing in the purifying Atlantic waters of the night, dancing or enjoying other cultural activities

which are held in the vicinity of Castillo San Felipe. This is a cult of the popular, the profane, when humans open up to these new energies, vibrating to the rhythms of nature of which we form a part.

On Friday 24th, from 8am, there is the traditional bathing of the goats on the fishermen’s quay. In the past this used to take place before sunrise. The

The bathing of the goats in the sea also fulfilled the purpose of bringing the mariners and the country people, two worlds which were then much less distant, together.

But the main reason for the ritual bathing of the goats was the belief that it would put the she-goats on heat and lead to the renewal of the flocks.

This is a practice which surprises visitors and which is in stark contrast to current times, but it is one of the traditions of centuries past which the people of Puerto de la Cruz are making an effort to conserve.

2008 crash

Spanair managers ‘to face charges’

CabildoNews

Flying the flag

Even though the numbers are up, Turismo de Tenerife isn’t resting on its laurels and continues to find new ways to promote the island as a multi-attractive destination.

In recent weeks they have hosted visits from travel writers and journalists from a number of different countries as well as taking stands at numerous tourism trade fairs and introducing a series of publicity campaigns with tour operators and airlines.

Cabildo tourism spokesperson Bermúdez said “we are ever present in the countries from where our tourists come”, and he added that their work is paying off with a substantial increase in tourist numbers already this year.

Journalists from Canada and Northern Ireland were here recently as were a team from the UK’s Travel Channel shooting a segment on cruises. Turismo de Tenerife have also been working on various on-line promotions, including the presentation of the island as a perfect place to practice golf. The Abama hotel is also featuring a number of lifestyle magazines and newspapers.

King Juan Carlos, pictured here during a visit to Tenerife, was furious with the national media

Spain’s King Juan Carlos has exacted revenge on the Spanish media for the constant speculation concerning his health.

The Spanish monarch is furious at the broadcasting of an unprecedented outburst he directed at a pool of journalists at a recent ceremony in the Royal Palace and has decided to ban microphones from future engagements.

The row was triggered when a journalist asked him about his health ahead of a complicated knee operation. 73year-old Juan Carlos reacted angrily to the inquiry, accusing the media of trying to “kill him off every day” by airing unfounded opinions on his condition. A few minutes later he attempted to calm matters down with an informal chat with the journalists but the publication of the outburst has now led to a blanket ban on all but photographers at Palace events.

The ban could see some media boycott all information relating to the Royal Family, including of ficial communiqués.

154 passengers, many from Gran Canaria, died in the crash (Credit. Acfi press)

hree senior Spanair managers could face criminal charges over the Madrid air crash of August 2008 in which 154 passengers and crew died.

The judge in charge of the investigation into Spain’s worst air tragedy for decades believes there is sufficient evidence to add the airline trio

(a shift manager, maintenance chief and quality control head) to the two engineers already facing likely prosecution after crash investigators found that a serious technical problem on the plane was not rectified before it was cleared to take off from Madrid for Gran Canaria, where many of the passengers were from.

The preliminary crash report

identifies major flaws in the procedures followed by Spanair staff at Madrid airport in assessing and remedying the fault, which caused the pilots to wrongly believe the flaps had been deployed for take-off. The aircraft crashed and burst into flames seconds after it left the ground. Only 18 people on board survived the horrific accident.

The Tenerife Cabildo have announced the allocation of funding for an island-wide programme in schools promoting story telling, puppetry, theatre workshops, exhibitions and family based projects.

The objective of the programme is to develop and solidify reading habits among the population – during the last academic year over 10,000 school children benefited from a similar programme.

Jihad

Islamic terrorism recruiter arrested Police in Gran Canaria say a Moroccan man detained in the south of the island earlier in June was an expert recruiter for Islamic extremists.

25-year-old Imad El Mouahhid was arrested in San Fernando de Maspalomas after a sur veillance operation conducted in coordination with Spain’s anti-terrorism court in Madrid.

Police say he actively sought out vulnerable teenagers of North African origin to recruit them for Islamic militant groups engaged in a jihad war on the West.

A search of his home produced an extensive haul of materials relating to Islamic terrorism, which the Moroccan posted on websites. It is believed he came to the atten-

tion of the authorities here due to his contacts with a number of known jihadi terrorists in his country of origin.

Unconfirmed sources say he had been on the radar of Spanish police for around three years. Armed officers from the police’s crack GEO Unit were deployed for the arrest due to fears he might try and shoot his way out if cornered.

Nap inauguration

The ALiX initiative, also known as the Neutral Access Point, or NAP, which has seen Tenerife become one of the principal bases in the global telecommunications network has been receiving international accolades.

Representatives of the Tenerife Cabildo and ITER, the institute for renewable energies, have been invited to attend various international fora to outline the parameters of the project. Since the launch of ALiX presentations have been made in the United Kingdom, Angola, and the United States among others. The most recent intervention was at the Uptime Institute in Silicone Valley.

The initiative was welcomed by the Blood Donation Service

Campaigners from the Tenerife wing of the Spanish 15-M movement which sprang up in protest at political corruption and the lack of effectiveness of existing political and economic institutions hit on a novel way of putting their message across, while also doing their bit for blood donations.

The protestors, who spent weeks camped on the main square in Santa Cruz, hung up giant banners urging people to give blood to the mobile unit parked nearby instead of allowing politicians ‘to suck it from them’. Calling on the people of Tenerife to make good use of their most important asset, the campaigners said the only way to defeat blood-sucking capitalism and its ‘vampire’ institutional allies was to divert their blood elsewhere to those who really need it.

The Blood Donation Service here says the extra help was very welcome at a time when supplies have been running low.

panish prime minister José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero’s decision to ‘designate’ his successor has triggered anger among rank and file PSOE members, including one from Tenerife who has decided to throw his hat into the ring in the hope of forcing an open leadership battle.

Zapatero, who will not contest the 2012 general election, is believed to have worked extensively behind the scenes to have his Interior Minister Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba selected by the party executive as the candidate. Hours before the executive rubberstamped Rubalcaba’s selection, a second possible candidate, Carmen Chacón (the current defence minister), pulled out citing personal reasons and in order not to damage the party.

Rather than allow Rubalcaba to proceed unopposed, several PSOE unknowns have put

Rubalcaba, the preferred choice of Zapatero

themselves forward in a bid to oblige the party to hold primaries. One of the contenders is 62-year-old Enrique García, who is originally from Seville but has

lived here for 30 years. García’s headline-making announcement, coming on the heels of similar declarations by other disgruntled party members, has

reignited the debate within the PSOE regarding the method for choosing its candidate to battle with the Popular Party’s Mariano Rajoy in March 2012.

Meiers sentence

News in Brief >>

Unhealthy delay

Arona failings highlighted’

17 months to sack abuse nurse

The sentencing document issued by the judge in the recent Mars Meiers murder trial has underlined how his victim, former girlfriend Kristine Zaikova, might still be alive today if a court in Arona had taken more seriously her plea for protection.

The sentence gives extensive details of exactly how Kristine and her Spanish boyfriend tried to convince a local judge that her life was in danger after she received multiple text messages and phone threats from Meiers.

The couple were interviewed in February 2008 in Arona concerning the threats and reiterated the importance of urgent action to prevent Meiers, a Latvian with a record of previous violence, from travelling to Tenerife to carry out his vow to punish Kristine for ending their relationship. However, no

The nurse was found guilty of attacking a female patient in the University Hospital

Questions are being asked of the Canarian Health Service following the revelation that it took 17 months to take disciplinary action against a male nurse who was convicted of abusing a female patient.

Arona courts embarrassed by delay death

decision was taken by the court until August by which time former soldier Meiers had tracked his ex-girlfriend to her home in Guargacho and stabbed her 84 times.

The formal notification to the couple that the judge had decided to act was received

by Armando on 1 September 2008, weeks after her brutal murder.

Meiers has been sentenced to 25 years in jail for the horrific killing and the details of the tragic delay are proving a major embarrassment for the justice system here.

Manuel Noda was given a suspended sentence after being found guilty by a Tenerife court in June 2009 of sexually abusing a 28-yearold woman in the University Hospital’s Psychiatric Unit, where he worked.

The conviction automatically meant dismissal under the Service’s staff regulations but it has now emerged that steps were only taken last month. Worse still, it is unclear whether the nurse has merely been suspended or sacked definitively.

A spokesperson said the disciplinary action was a

confidential matter and hinted that the delay had been caused by confusion over who should initiate the proceedings, the hospital or the Health Service.

According to the local media, the nurse is a union officer and has been kept off the ward of late to allow him to devote his time to his union duties.

CEIP El Médano

Not lost in translation!

F

or the second year running the English language teaching staf f at the El Médano CEIP primar y school ran an English language magazine competition which Island Connections were delighted to judge.

Under the watchful eye of the school’s auxiliary English teacher, Kathy Webber, we viewed the magazines produced by the 5th and 6th classes in the Primary sector. We also were more than impressed by the ongoing work the classes are doing in English, evidenced by an excellent display in the main corridor of an international map and individually prepared guides to an array of countries, in English, detailing national flags, currencies, geography, dress and customs, all handwritten, delightfully illustrated, and well presented.

Kathy explained that the school works under the CLIL (Content and language integrated learning) programme.

Promoted through the European Commission, CLIL

involves teaching a curricular subject through the medium of a language, in this case English, other than that normally used (Spanish). The subject can be entirely unrelated to language learning and in many institutions language teachers work in partnership with other departments to offer CLIL in various subjects. The key issue is that the learner is gaining

new knowledge about the ‘non-language’ subject while encountering, using and learning the foreign language, such as the El Médano pupils’ guides to countries of the world.

Kathy said that the children now also had regular access to the computer room in the school and were encouraged to find and adapt material themselves.

German tourist

First E. coli case in Tenerife

An ill German tourist was the case of E. Coli to be detected in the Canaries, although the health authorities didn’t state whether it was certain that the strain of the bacteria was the same as that which has already caused 25 deaths in her home country.

heat lamps, timers, thermostats and other equipment. A source said the recently-rented flat had been turned into a full-scale laboratory for growing the drug. The 37-year-old was due to be charged with drug trafficking.

The woman was admitted to hospital in Tenerife during the first week of June suffering from diarrhoea with bleeding but was subsequently discharged. Sources say she lives in the Hamburg area, the part of Germany worst affected by the outbreak of E. coli thought to have been triggered by bacteria in vegetables. Further tests were being carried out on the strain identified in the tourist to determine if it is the same as the O104H4 strain that has caused the Europewide health scare.

The Spanish department of health declined to give further details of the woman or the hospital involved and says there is no cause for alarm.

Certainly for a group of up to 100 children with only two native English speakers among them, the pupils of 5A, 5B, 6A and 6B are to be congratulated for their language skills as well as their initiative. The magazines used recognisable formats, featuring fashion, music, cinema reviews, pets, and special mention has to go to the ver y bright sparks in

class 5A for their imaginative ‘weird news’ slot, which was all their own work. However there has to be a winner, and this year it was The Magazine of the World by class 5B, and was picked for its balance of content, excellent layout, individual graphics and professional cover and credits.

The winners will be visiting the offices of the IC Media

group soon to see how newspapers and magazines come together in the ‘real’ world, and maybe we’ll be encouraging a budding journalist or two to return to us in the not too distant future.

We would love to see more of this kind of initiative in schools around the island and would be delighted to help teachers and classes if we can.

Healthier kids

The three public primary schools in Adeje will be taking part in an approved programme next term aimed at combating child obesity.

The month-long Spanish Mother’s Day promotion by ASEMTEIDE, the Santiago del Teide business association, in conjunction with local and regional authorities and the European funding body, FEDER was a great success and some lucky

Adeje mayor, the minister for education and organ experts with the newly restored instrument

Schools in the Adeje borough are taking part in the programme

The Thao-Salud programme is a pioneering project in the islands and works through the promotion of healthy lifestyle choices by children from three to 12 years of age. Children who follow the programme won’t just be working to keep their weight within acceptable limits, but also giving their developing bodies the tools they need to avoid diseases and illnesses associated with obesity. They will learn about food groups, what is good to eat, the benefits of physical activity particularly as part of their time in school, and all with a touch of fun. Kids will be encouraged to take more exercise and not just within sporting limits but also during play and games with their friends, as well as learning about the benefits of a healthier lifestyle within a social setting.

There will also be regular assessments carried out within schools with children who are

taking part in the programme having weight and measurements monitored.

Pillars of the programme Communication, intervention and evaluation are the three fundamental axes of the programme. The first involves letting parents know how the programme works and the relevant themes with regard to their children’s health.

Inter vention works on the development of the project and the introduction of methods designed to encourage participating children to opt for healthier options.

During the evaluation process, children will be asked about their eating habits, their physical activities, and monitored regularly. All those carrying out the programme are qualified under the national programme which is approved by the Spanish Ministr y of

Health as well as the federation of towns and provinces, the Spanish food safety agency, and at local level by the Adeje council as well as the municipal schools.

In Adeje the programme will benefit over 2,500 children in the borough. Activities promoting the project will be taking place in September in participating schools, namely Adeje Casco, Los Olivos, Las Torres, Fañabé, Armeñime and Tijoco. Parental authorisation will be required to enter a child into the programme and qualified personnel from the Adeje health centre will be involved in any physical assessments children will be asked to undergo. There will also be a questionnaire regarding the child’s diet and levels of physical activity via which any possible problems can be identified and solutions sought, with the involvement of both parents and children.

The regional minister for education, Milagros Luis Brito, was in Adeje recently at the invitation of the mayor José Miguel Rodríguez Fraga, to see the newly restored organ. The instrument is, according to the president of the Canarian Royal Academy of Fine Arts, Rosario Álvarez Martínez, a ‘unique’ piece in the islands, one of the main reasons behind the restoration, which was co-funded by the local council, the Cabildo and the regional government.

German expert Bartelt Immer oversaw the work, at a cost of over €66,000, along with a team of specialists in restoration, paint and lattice design which included Regine Hawellek and Fernanda Guitián from the Tenerife restoration company Cúrcuma.

The mayor explained that this particular organ dates from the 18th century and would have been brought here from Germany, but lain unused for many years. “As someone from Adeje and as mayor it is hugely satisfying to hear the sound of this instrument in all its solemnity as well as the playing of the organist

from La Almudena Cathedral in Madrid.”

Education minister Milagros Luis Brito added that the organ was an important part of the Canarian musical heritage.

“It has taken years to finally complete the work but finally it is done and the public can enjoy the results”.

The Adeje organ was donated to the town by Domingo de Herrera Ayala y Rojas Ponte, the eleventh Count of La Gomera, sixth Marquis of Adeje. It is made of pine, ornately decorated with gold paintwork, which is, according to Álvarez Martínez, quite unique among organs in the Canary Islands. It was first heard at a mass celebrated in 1766 in front of a public quite different from the people who will be able to hear the glorious sounds today. Musical experts say it is an instrument perfectly designed for the Renaissance and Baroque compositions.

According to Rosario Álvarez Martínez “the town of Adeje should be proud to own such an instrument which will be of great interest to students and lovers of music, art, and culture in general”; he said.

Spain’s succession tax considered discriminatory by European Commission

By David Franks, Chief Executive, Blevins Franks

I

n Spain, inheritance and gift tax is governed by both the state and the Autonomous Communities.

There are 17 Communities in Spain, and each has the right to amend the state rules, but only to make them more beneficial, not more punitive.

Over the past few years, several Autonomous Communities have made significant reforms to their inheritance tax rules. In these Communities, there has been a general trend towards substantial reliefs and increased allowances, resulting in almost total exemption from inheritance tax in certain cases.

In the Canar y Islands up to 99 per cent of the deceased’s assets can be exempt from Spanish inheritance tax where the beneficiaries are children and/or a spouse.

Such generous exemptions are in stark contrast to the state rules, where the allowances are very much reduced. For

example, under the state rules, the general allowance is only €16,000 for inheriting spouses or children.

both countries, such as Blevins Franks who specialise in Spanish and UK tax planning.

If your property here is a holiday home you don’t benefit from the Canarian regulations

The system is complex, since the rules within each Autonomous Community vary, and different allowances and different rates can apply. However, one thing is certain: for the rules of a particular Autonomous Community to apply, the deceased must have been habitually resident there for the preceding five years. If the deceased does not meet this condition, then the state rules apply by default.

Cur rently, non-residents cannot take advantage of the favourable Community rules, since they will fail the habitual residence condition. So, for example, individuals not resident in Spain who have holiday homes or investment properties in Spain are most af fected.

Even though the property may be situated in a Community with favourable inheritance tax rules, these rules are of no benefit. As a consequence, higher taxes will be payable than if the individual had been living in Spain.

The European Commission

first sent Spain a “reasoned opinion” about these discriminatory rules on 5th May 2010.

Whilst Spain tweaked its laws, they are still not fully compliant with EU law.

The Commission therefore sent a “complementar y reasoned opinion” to Spain, stating that Spain’s inheritance and gift tax rules are in breach of the EU Treaty’s rules on the free movement of workers and

capital. Spain has two months to respond. If no satisfactory response is received within this timeframe, the Commission may decide to refer the case to the European Court of Justice.

It remains to be seen how Spain will respond, and whether it will change its inheritance tax laws so that they no longer discriminate between residents and non-residents.

Whilst you may end up paying less tax in Spain in relation to your Spanish assets if Spain changes its laws, if you are not resident here you will need to consider the inheritance tax implications in your country of residence, since you may still have a tax liability in that country.

When considering inheritance tax planning, you should seek advice from an expert who knows the systems of

Unstable employment N

ine out of ten new job contracts registered in April and May in the Canaries were only temporar y.

In April 90.5 per cent of the contracts were temporary and in May 89.8 per cent so that although 45,074 were taken off the job seekers list, only 4,302 have any prospects of longer term employment. The number of contracts that were continued were down 5.6 per cent on March, the number of indefinite contracts were down by 14.6 per cent and the number of temporary contracts fell by 4.6 per cent.

Comparing the unemployment figures of April of this year with 2010, 12.1 per cent more people were working, but this was reflected in an increase of 14.2 per cent in the number of temporary contracts on offer so will only be a short term solution. The number of indefinite contracts dropped by 3.9 per cent, the same level as the national figure, which underlines the precocity of

The medical union CESM warn that between 30 and 40 per cent of the doctors who are trained here are forced to leave the area to find work.

Given, they claim, that there are restrictions on contracts because of the crisis, it doesn’t look likely to improve even in the areas such as Pediatrics and Gynaecology where there is a demand for the specialists and where the number of training places had been increased to cover the demand. Even the temporary summer contracts were able to give work to less than 10 per cent of those who finished their MIR training this year. The union spokesperson claimed that many are leaving for England or Germany where there is a demand for doctors

The unemployment figures for May in the Canaries showed a drop of 2,432 people, one of the best figures for six years and means that the region has the biggest drop in unemployment in the country over the last twelve months. The Director General of the Canarian Employment Service, Alberto Génova, affirms that the drop in the number of unemployed will assist a, “level of economic recovery which will put a brake on the loss of jobs”.

The number of new contracts signed in the last 12 months in the Islands is well over the national average with 20.2 per cent growth, compared to nine per cent over all the country, however only 10.2 per cent were indefinite, so 89.8 per cent can be considered unstable. By sectors, 1,406 of the new jobs were

Second hand cars rise

The average price of second hand cars went up to €11,005.22 last month.

According to the largest motor website in Spain, this increase of 0.35 per cent is the first increase in second hand vehicles in seven months. Prices are still 11.74 per cent cheaper than the same period last year. In the Canaries the price rose just a little over the national average at 0.36 per cent. As far as stock on offer goes, it was interesting to note an increase on the kilometres clocked up compared with 2010. Seven per cent more cars with over 100,000 kilometres were registered bringing that section up to 44.29 per cent of the total offer, next are those vehicles with 80 - 100 thousand kilometres at 13.82 per cent, followed by the 13.25 per cent of vehicles registering between 60 and 80 thousand kilometres.

the country’s biggest unions, CCOO, José Miguel González, gave his opinion that despite the positive figures, the region will not be over the economic crisis for another 15 years.

MIR residency training is fixed by a special training contract and each doctor will cost the system around €100,000 to train. Given that the average graduation number is 300, the loss by emigration to the system is around €10.5 million a year.

And this at a time when health staff unions are complaining that the loss of staff in health centres and hospitals due to holidays and illness is not being covered completely or sufficiently by temporary contracts and they claim that even if the new hospitals in the nor th and south open at their latest rescheduled opening dates, if we continue losing qualified people at this rate there will not be enough doctors left to staff them.

International economy

Business proposals The Confederation of businessmen and women of Santa Cruz de Tenerife have put forward a series of proposals to internationalise the Canarian economy.

They wish to reinforce the attraction of business projects by developing international information and advice campaigns for possible investors. They believe that the aid and grants programmes for cooperation projects should be coordinated to develop action in other sectors such

as commerce, tourism and transport.

They want to see: the development of sector-based programmes set up to slot traditional Canarian products into the international market; more backing and support for the sea and air connections between the Islands and the West coast of Africa; more strategic cooperation between administrations, business organisations and chambers of commerce; the Canaries strategically placed in the international scene with reinforced, modernised and

specialised institutional models for exterior promotion and a good presence in Internet and a strategic plan for business internationalisation where the vision, mission and objectives are clearly drawn up along with the responsibilities and demarcation lines for all the administrations. Finally they have called for the creation of an Internationalisation Observatory where the administrations and the business community can coordinate and reinforce their activities.

The Tinerfeñan fashion sector is doing splendidly. The local designers have done extraordinarily well despite difficult international conditions and now market 40 different brands of clothes, underwear and jewellery. Total billing for 2010 amounted to over €14 million.

African connections

Business with Morocco

The Canarian Government is looking towards Morocco as the first step in turning the islands into an international business platform.

Initially they are looking for air connections with Casablanca and possibly with Rabat to start the ball rolling. A professional study commissioned by the American Chamber of Commerce, the Canarian Government, BinterCanarias, and Disa confirms that the islands have great potential to become an international platform, but it would depend on the establishment of direct air connections with the Western African countries and America. The experts believe that this is a critical issue for the archipelago, an opinion shared by the Canarian government and businesses here.

Dr. De La Flor

Dear Dr. De La Flor

Dear Dr. De La Flor

Due to my job, I do plenty of physical work and for a few months my back has been bothering me on and off. I did suf fer from whiplash about 10 years ago. Is there a way of knowing if I have a herniated disk?

I get swimmer’s ear ver y often. Any advice?

Cheers, Adrian

Dear Adrian, A spinal disk becomes herniated when the inside contents bulge out from a weakened por tion of the disk and put pressure on surrounding nerves and other structures. The resulting pain may be local or can affect the leg, foot or hip if the slipped disk is in the lower back.

A herniated disk in the neck can cause pain in the upper back and shoulders. Painful symptoms of a herniated disk tend to worsen: after you have been sitting down or standing for a long period; during the night; when you laugh, cough or sneeze; when you walk, even a short distance; when you bend over backwards.

Don’t forget that the first thing to do is to rest, and it is an excellent idea to do some imaging diagnosis to rule out other pathologies. Ask your GP for further advice and please do not let this type of pain linger and don’t forget to use local heat and light stretching when you feel the ‘tightness’ and overthe-counter painkillers for the pain.

And by the way, body posture rules! Proper body alignment and proper postural awareness during the day is vital. Best wishes!

Cheers, Mia

Dear Mia, Known to medical professionals as otitis externa, swimmer’s ear is an inflammation of the ear canal. Its common name comes from the fact that it often occurs in children and young adults who swim frequently. However, any cause of dampness in the canal can lead to irritation and chafing, similar to nappy rash in babies. An inflammation of the skin can sometimes lead to an infection that can be painful, almost unbearable.

Despite its name, you don’t have to be a swimmer to get swimmer’s ear. It’s often caused by excess moisture in the ear from routine showering. The moisture can cause the skin inside the ear canal to become chafed, dry, and cracked. A break in the skin, which may result from tr ying to scratch the persistent itch of the dry and flaky skin, can allow bacteria or even a fungus to invade the tissue of the ear canal and cause an infection.

Other skin conditions, such as sebor rheic dermatitis and psoriasis, can also lead to swimmer’s ear. Another common cause is excessive and improper cleaning of wax from the ears. We need to remember that wax protects the ear canal from excess moistur e and harbours friendly bacteria that creates a healthier environment in the ear. Removing this protective barrier - par ticularly with hairpins, fingernails, or other objects which can scratch the

skin - makes it easier for an infection to take hold.

Surprisingly enough, hairspray or hair colouring, which can irritate the ear canal, may also lead to an outer ear infection.

Avoid any further trauma to the ear. Do not attempt to remove visible debris or drainage from the ear. Be ver y gentle when keeping ears clean and dry. No object thinner or sharper than your little finger should be placed in your ear.

If you’re not allergic, you may tr y a variety of overthe-counter painkillers such as paracetamol or ibuprofen.

If there is a large amount of drainage or debris in the ear, your GP might clean out the ear canal before medicine is placed in the ear. After cleaning the ear, your GP may place a foam wick in the canal. This allows antibiotic or antifungal eardrops or both to be placed onto the wick. The wick swells up inside the ear canal, thus holding the medicine in place against the lining of the skin.

Oral antibiotics may also be prescribed if the infection is severe, or if topical antibiotics aren’t working. I hope you have a great ear infection-free summer Dr. De La Flor, licensed G.P. /Family Doctor.

The Big Three Facts W

hat are the big three? I am talking about the three macro nutrients: Carbohydrates, Fats, and Protein.

What are fats?

Fats are organic molecules made up of carbon and hydrogen elements joined together in long chains called hydrocarbons. These molecules can be constructed in different ways, which creates different types of fat and their unique properties.

There are three main types of dietary fat: saturated, monounsaturated, and polyunsaturated.

Here is a little table for better understanding:

Why are healthy fats so important?

Strong evidence

• Cardiovascular protection (though there is less evidence for protecting against heart failure) • Improves body composition • Alleviates depression

Average evidence

• Prevents cancers • Preserves memory • Preserves eye health • Reduces incidence of aggressive behaviour • Reduces ADHD and ADD symptoms

Dietary Fat Classification Saturated Saturated

Monounsaturated

Polyunsaturated

Omega 3 Omega 6 Animal fats Olive oil Flax Tropical oils Avocados Hemp

Peanuts Fish

Pecans Canola

Almonds Safflower The difference between saturated and unsaturated fats lies in the bond structure. (See the diagram).

Saturated fats contain no double bonds. Each carbon (C) has two hydrogens (H). The chain is ‘saturated’ with hydrogens. Because of this chemical configuration, saturated fats are generally solid at room temperature.

Unsaturated fats, on the other hand, have one or more double bonds between the carbons. Thus not all of the carbons have hydrogens stuck to them.

This puts a ‘kink’ in the chain.

Monounsaturated fats have one double bond and polyunsaturated fats have more than one.

These molecular shapes of various fats are important, because the shapes determine how the various fats act in the body.

In popular terminology, the monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats are what most people refer to as ‘healthy fats’. Yet humans have likely consumed unprocessed forms of saturated fats (such as organ meats from wild game, blubber from seals and whales, milk, or coconuts) for their entire existence. And since humans evolved by consuming a diet of whole foods, fat intake from mono-, poly-, and saturated sources was distributed evenly.

When it comes to healthy fat, intake amount is important. People are often concerned about excess dietary fat, but not getting enough fat may also cause health problems.

We need adequate fat to support metabolism, cell signalling, the health of various body tissues, immunity, hormone production, and the absorption of many nutrients (such as vitamins A and D, E and K). Having enough fat will also help keep you feeling full between meals.

Don’t be scared to consume fat. Every macronutrient (fats, protein and carbs) is essential.

How much fat should you consume?

On average the daily fat intake should vary from 15 per cent to 40 per cent depending on your body type. (You can find an older article about body types on the Island Connections website).

The perfect relation between the three fat groups would be 1/3 of saturated fats, 1/3 of monounsaturated and 1/3 of polyunsaturated fats.

Pick up a bargain home

House prices drop by 5.9 per cent W

ith the biggest fall in house prices for a year and a half, with a 5.9 per cent decrease during May this year, properties are now selling for the same prices as they did in 2005. If you have the means, surely now is the time to buy.

May’s fall is the biggest drop since December 2009 when prices fell by 6.6 per cent and follows April’s fall of 4.4 per cent, according to valuers Tinsa. According to them, this “strong descent” confirms the effects of uncertainty in macroeconomic circles, which directly affect families’ ability to purchase property.

The worst falls in prices have been recorded on the Mediterranean coast, at 8.1 per cent, followed by large cities and capitals at 6.7 per cent.

However, it is not all plain sailing.

There are certainly some fantastic bargains to be found, but alongside these low property prices are rising mortgage interest rates, which mean

a significant increase in monthly payments. This, combined with the fact that salaries generally have not risen in line with rising retail prices, coupled with fears of unemployment, means that fewer people are currently capable of purchasing a home. This leaves the market wide open for the rest of the population.

Internet fraud warning

FACUA consumers association have warned of internet frauds relating to short term apartment rentals. Holiday lets could be offered at attractive prices, with a deposit for longer lets or the complete rental for the term of the holiday to be paid in advance to the supposed owner who states he cannot show the property to tenants because he lives too far away.

The money has to be transferred to this person or credited to an independent bank account via a money transfer agency with the promise that keys and a contract will be forthcoming.

The swindler collects the money, and the apartment usually does not exist.

Valuers Tinsa consider it reasonable that house prices are adjusting to suit the current circumstances, and feel that despite the falls in property prices earlier in the year, we may now be seeing a second phase which would complete the cycle.

PALM GARDENS ·AMARILLA GOLF·

Holiday apartment rental

To avoid being ‘ripped off’, FACUA recommends that you check the property registry to find out who is the owner, deal with reputable people only, and not to pay any money in advance until you have viewed the property. Bank transfers are much safer than using money transfer agencies.

After rinsing, you may want to add protection to it by applying a thin coat of car wax.

However, as a rule it is best to allow the aluminium to dry thoroughly before coating it with wax. If the condition of your aluminium calls for abrasive pads, apply baking soda to its surface and rub with a moistened cloth.

If the upholstery has chewing gum on it, you can peel it off after freezing the substance. First, you need to get an ice cube wrapped in a thin piece of cloth. Apply it directly to the chewing gum for few minutes. As it hardens, the chewing gum becomes easy to peel off.

After cleaning, it is recommended that you dry the upholstery. Only a small amount of residual moisture can cause mould and mildew, which makes it difficult for furniture restoration.

Property Market: Euribor �������s

Mortgages continue squeezed T

he Euribor, the main economic indicator on which Spanish mortgage rates are based, ended May at 2.147 per cent, its highest rate since January 2009 when it reached 2.622 per cent.

If the economic forecasts are to be believed, the situation looks set to worsen over the remainder of this year.

What these figures mean to a homeowner with a mortgage of €150,000 over 25 years and a Euribor spread up by 0.8 per cent, is that the monthly payment will increase by around €68, bringing the increase for the whole year to around €816.

The Euribor has been recording an upward trend since March last year, with the rate of increase gradually speeding up. This year it began May at 2.139 per cent and reached a high of 2.173 per cent during the month.

Its last daily rate was 2.138 per cent, an increase of more than one point from its low of 1.211 per cent at the end of March last year.

Economic experts say that the Euribor's final rate will depend on any increases applied by the European Central Bank (ECB) in response to fluctuations in oil prices, while the Greek crisis has lessened expectations of monetary tightening.

According to a study by Bankia, the banking conglomerate which is the result of the merger of seven Spanish financial institutions led by savings banks Bancaja and Caja Madrid, the 12 month Euribor rate could continue to rise to levels of around 2.25 per cent next June, meaning no respite for mortgage holders.

Cushions are part of your furniture cleaning. They can be washable and non-washable. Look for the tag or ask the dealer if the materials used can be placed in a washing machine. If not, then you can use a mild detergent solution and washcloth to rub the dirt and stain.

Community rules and duels

Payments to the community I

n the last edition we briefly explained the duties of an owner in a community. In this edition we continue the series and explain more about payments to the community.

There are two kinds of payments, the usual fee to cover the budget approved at the AGM and extra payments called ‘derramas’ which cover extra costs or repairs outside the normal budget.

These also need to be approved at an AGM. If a community has had to borrow money in order to pay for unexpected repairs to the building, you will assume your share of this debt when you become a member.

That is, if special extra assessments on the members to pay for a new swimming pool were voted for at the last Annual General Meeting, you will be obliged to continue the payments when you buy. To find out in advance ask to see the minutes of the last meeting. The seller should have a copy of the minutes and the accounts or you can obtain them from the president of the community or from the administrator. If the minutes show that the principal business of the last meeting was how to deal with the persistent water problems, for example, there could be serious problems ahead.

Ever y owner must pay their community fees on the date established by the members at the Annual General Meeting. Fees may be paid on a monthly, quarterly or an annual basis.

If any of the members fail to pay the community fees, the President or the Administrator may claim the debt in the local court, with previous authorisation from the other community members and which has been approved at a general meeting, where the block of properties is located.

The courts may now in an abbreviated procedure place an ‘embargo’ (a seizure) on the inscription of a property for unpaid community fees, and later even place it for sale by public auction.

If you intend to sell your property at a later date you will have to pay the outstanding amount with any court costs or you may find that no-one will have an interest in the property as they will not want to take your debt upon themselves.

Some insurance companies do offer policies that cover unpaid debts, something very useful in a case where the community has to pay for monthly services. In this way the community of owners protects itself from potential bankruptcy and the services can continue to benefit the other owners.

Developers challenge property predictions

Madrid conference

T

he Spanish property developers association president, José Manuel Galindo, has warned that the forecasts made by the general director of the Bank of Spain's research department, José Luis Malo de Molina could severely affect buyers’ purchasing decisions.

Molina predicted an additional 10 per cent fall in house prices over the next two years.

During the 2011 Madrid Real Estate Conference, Galindo emphasised the need “to talk about facts and not opinions,” and expressed his fear that many potential purchasers could well now make the decision to delay their property purchases and wait for further discounts to be offered.

The President commented that forecasts of falling prices across the board, with no specification regarding location or property type “may affect and mislead buyers when making their decision to purchase”, and that 10 per cent is only an estimated average.

This may turn out to be much less in some areas. On the other hand, Galindo stated that the real estate sector wants “to be what

society demands; we want supply and demand to be sustainable”.

He continued, “we don't want the real estate sector to be a business, but an industry”. Galindo estimates that the demand for residential housing is around 30,000 units per year.

Finally, he called for better official property information and accurate calculations regarding Spain's housing stock. He also demanded the creation of consolidated statistics on housing stock and housing prices, as well as an investigation into economically sustainable housing types from the point of

view of cost and production. He also wanted a debate to be held based on society's actual housing needs and what should be constructed. Galindo requested the government's minister for development, José Blanco, to pursue “continuing dialogue” on these issues, together with representatives from the other autonomous regions.

The conference was held following the release of data for the first quarter of this year which indicated that banks have restricted credit for home purchases by 43 per cent.

5. Physical Development – with opportunities for the children to practise their fine and gross motor skills and to increase their understanding of how their bodies work and what they need to do to be healthy and safe.

6. Creative Development – providing opportunities for the children to explore, and share their thoughts, ideas and feelings through a variety of art, design and technology, music, movement, dance and imaginative and role play activities.

Our emphasis in Nurser y is for the children to learn through play, in a warm, caring and stimulating environment, whilst being prepared for the next step – Reception class – the following year. Due to the excellent staff /pupil ratio, the children are involved in more meaningful play and therefore achieve greater results.

Once the children star t Reception, it’s time to learn how to be good little readers and

five year olds with the following six areas of learning: 1. Personal, Social and Emotional – develops social skills, positive attitudes towards their learning and towards others and exploring their own feelings as well as valuing others.

2. Communication, Language and Literacy – providing opportunities for the children to talk and communicate in a widening range of situations, to practise and extend the range of vocabular y and communication skills they use and to listen carefully. There are opportunities for the children to experience a rich variety of books as well as to explore, enjoy and learn about and use words and text.

3. Mathematical Development – to develop the children’s understanding of number, measurement, pattern, shape and space by providing a broad range of contexts in which they can explore, enjoy, learn, practise and talk about them.

Getting ready for school Dear Editor

I

t’s amazing how quickly the time goes and already the infant and office staff of Wingate School have a list of children who are ready to start school in September, some for Nursery (3/4yrs), some for Reception class (4/5yrs).

So what goes on in a Nursery or Reception class? Don’t the children just play?

Not at all, although obviously play is an important aspect of a child’s learning.

Perhaps I can shed some light on what goes on at our school for your readers.

In our Nurser y and Reception classes, we follow the Foundation Curriculum as in Britain. For those of you who are unfamiliar with this curriculum, it is basically the National Curriculum for three to

by the end of Reception class all the children can read books of varying levels and write simple words or sentences.

So, what do you do if you have a child who is Nursery or Reception age and want to enrol in Wingate School? Well, if your child has his/her 3rd birthday before 1st September 2011 (Nursery age) or a 4th birthday before 1st September 2011 (Reception age) why not come and visit the school.

Appointments can be made, and enrolment forms obtained through the school office. Mr Green, the Head of the School, will happily give you a tour and staff can answer any questions you may have. And if your child is too young but you would like to consider British education for next year I would advise you to fill in the necessary forms now to avoid disappointment. Places are limited.

To make an appointment, or for further details, please contact Julia in our school office on 922 720 102, or look at our website - www.wingateschool. com Miss Lynne Pearson Head of Infants Wingate School

Cancer (June 21 to July 21)

This is a busy time with lots of appointments and some great ideas popping up. Drive carefully and keep an eye on traffic lights. You’ll need extra rest but unexpected visitors turn up and plans or arrangements are changed.

Live for today!



Leo (July 22 to August 21)

A burst of activity enters your life and there’ll be no peace and quiet. Communications come in from all directions. Be ready for altered arrangements or arguments with snappy people, and to meet someone who enters your life and leaves just as fast.



Virgo (August 22 to September 21)

You’ll be in the mood for food and fun but someone might bend your ear about what you need to do. There’ll be excitement or a clash of ideas. Stay out of it if you can and don’t take risks with people you don’t know.



A great time for chatting with friends and expressing your sense of humour. An old flame could reappear.

There’ll be last minute changes to plans and a boss could be excitable or difficult. Just keep out of the way. Drive carefully.

Gemini (May 21 to June 20)

Take time for daydreams and rest, you’ll have something deep to reflect on. It’s crazy later on as arrangements will change and change again. There could be hot words with your partner but you’ll soon kiss and make up. A little drama never hurts.

You’ve got that Monday feeling again but as time progresses there’ll be recreation and you can take the limelight with a touch of style. You’ll have romance on your mind but the object of your affections will have a different idea altogether.

Important news could come, but you’ll be ready. Hang out with your crazy friends. Group activities present themselves so get stuck in. Slow down at the weekends and enjoy your favourite things. You’ll be at your best with your favourite people.



Sagittarius (November 22 to December 20)

Someone is on your case and you’ll need to do things the right way. Chill out over the weekend with your favourite music or a stunning movie. Give yourself time and space to think. You’ll need to make changes in your life.



Capricorn (December 21 to January 19)

Financial news is in the air. Get into some new topics or look ahead to where you want to go. An expert could give good advice if you could only settle down and listen.

There’ll be new people in your life or changes with the usual faces.



Aquarius (January 20 to February 18)

Stay cool and keep out of trouble – don’t push your luck!

A bit of physical exercise or sport will help you burn off any frustrations. Arrangements or people will be difficult and you won’t be able to keep everyone happy. That’s life.



Pisces (February 19 to March 20)

If you’re unattached, just cruise around and see what happens. Work out what you really want before you make any moves. Things are changing around you and there may be a bit of chaos at home. People will arrive unexpectedly or overreact.

Bathroom Design >>

Bathroom design Part II

T

he bathroom is usually one of the two rooms in a home, along with the bedroom, where people go to relax, therefore it is worth spending a little extra time and thought when planning your bathroom and turning it into somewhere where you really can unwind.

In this issue we look at a modern style and finishing touches.

 Modern Modern styles obviously change from year to year but the most recent designs seem to be verging on the minimalist – sleek, smooth and straight lines with the minimum of visible appliances and details.

Glass, stainless steel, marble and granite give the bathrooms a clean and sharp feel.

Fixtures and fittings using basic geometric designs such as squares and triangles are very popular at the moment.

Colours are bright and bold – black and white, pillar box red, blues and yellows. Wall colours often contrast highly with the objects in the room to help emphasise their sculpted qualities. Mirrors feature highly and this look can be perfect if your bathroom is very small though, personally, I find it a little cold and would want to add a few personal touches to warm it up a little.

 Finishing touches Add fresh or dried flowers to the room and maybe a few plants – there are lots of vari-

eties that thrive in a humid atmosphere.

Unusual vessels such as wall vases, old watering cans and window boxes can all make attractive and interesting plant holders.

Fit a shelf to display framed prints, photos or small collectibles such as bottles.Soft light-

ing instead of an overhead bulb will give the bathroom a cosy feel. Scour the secondhand shops for antique bowls or vases and fill them with pot pourri, scented soaps or bath salts.

If you have room, consider adding a piece of furniture such as a wicker or bamboo chair.

Terrarium >>

Pruning Shrubs and Climbers F

or those lucky residents of the sunny Canaries who have gardens, then shrubs and climbers make excellent features. Unfortunately shrubs need pruning and this is often the part of gardening that most people are wary of.

Pruning is not just about reducing the size. There are six main reasons why it is necessary:

1). Changing shape - it helps to keep the

plant to the desired size and shape; 2). Promoting flowers - timely pruning can result in a large increase in flowering; 3). Promoting fruit - correct pruning will ensure bountiful crops; 4). Retaining vigour - pruning stimulates growth in almost all woody plants; 5). Reducing disease - when old wood is removed, the risk of disease is reduced;

6). Rejuvenation - hard cutting of very old shrubs can give them a new lease of life.

Various tools are needed for pruning and the most common are secateurs. These can be of various designs including bypass or anvil. Two-handed secateurs are handy for thick branches since they have more leverage.

Ordinary shears can be used for cutting several twigs at once, ideal for small shrubs.

If you have lots of shrubs to prune it may be worthwhile to invest in a well made pair.

Always clean the secateurs between shrubs to avoid spreading diseases. When properly used, secateurs do not need sharpening, just a little oiling now and again.

There are some general pruning rules that should be followed. The old saying goes “growth follows the knife”. This means that after a shrub is pruned, the new growth is

N ew l aw

Equality and rentals

The proposed new equality law could, theoretically, prevent you from letting your property to the person of your choice.

T

he anti-discrimination law promoting equal treatment which is currently being prepared by the government could be applied in many areas, including homes, and could leave owners defenceless. The law would not allow you to choose the best tenant or purchaser, and if you rejected an offer, you could be reported for discrimination

and considered guilty unless you could demonstrate your innocence. The proposed law actually states that ‘in the subject of access to homes, no-one may be discriminated against for their characteristics, race, ethnic background or aspect at the time of buying or renting a flat’. ence, in no way could you refuse an offer to pur-

H

chase or to rent your property for any reason which could be referred to as discriminatory.

The consequence is that anyone who doesn’t want to rent to a tenant who he thinks may not pay the rent, or because he has received a better offer, could be reported.

T

his would also prevent estate agents from advertising for ‘a married couple with no children under 18’ to rent a flat, or for ‘a young woman to share a flat’, as rejection on the grounds of sex, age, religion or race would not be permitted.

stimulated. When you take away some of the branches, especially the old or unwanted ones, all the energy is directed into the buds and shoots that remain, causing them to grow with increased vigour.

 The general points are to: • Cut just above a bud.

• Cut as cleanly as possible. If you crush or

crack the stem then cut again lower down.

• Always cut out branches that cross over each other or rub together;

• Remove old and diseased branches cutting

well below the infected area.

• Prune to create an open, airy shape, with a

hollow centre and evenly arranged branches.

• Clear all cuttings away. Leaving them in the garden may encourage disease.

The time of year to prune depends on the shrub and particularly on its flowering season. If the plant flowers before the longest day (21st June), prune immediately after flowering. Plants that flower later in summer can be pruned in spring, just before growth begins.

Some varieties of shrubs and plants differ so always check with an expert if you are unsure. Different examples include forsythia, mock orange, flowering currant, buddleia and roses.

Timeshar e l aw

Protection for consumers

The Spanish parliament recently debated and voted on draft legislation to control the multi-ownership or timeshare industry in the country.

T

he new laws will see Spain’s timeshare rules adapted to meet European norms and at last take new holiday packages into account. They affect the contracts for tourism assets, the acquisition of long-term holiday products, and the resale and exchange of timeshare and other variants.

U

nder the new law the time allowed for right of with-

drawal is regulated with the right of a consumer to change their mind extended from ten to 14 days, a ban on advance payments is extended and a payment schedule for longterm contracts introduced.

T

he new legislation establishes that greater information is given to the consumer before any contract is signed, with the consumer required to complete a series

of forms. The prohibition of any advance payment by the purchaser before the end of the withdrawal period extends to the provision of guarantees, and other items. Still at draft stage, the legislation will now go before the Consumers and Users Council, the Fiscal Council and the General Council for Judicial Power and the State Council for their considerations.

u r f o u r- l e g g e d friends, be they cats or dogs, living indoors or out, can be prone to suffering from little accidents, and hence minor injuries.

Just as we would for ourselves, we should always have a first aid kit for our pets close to hand so that we can relieve any discomfort and if necessary, take them to see their vet under the best possible circumstances.

The most obvious item that we need for cats is a carrier,

Let your animal get used to her carrier

a ‘cat ambulance’ to ensure that they arrive at the clinic safely. Familiarise your cat with this carrier, to the extent that he or she considers it a safe and pleasant place to be. Don’t fall into the habit of only producing the carrier when it is time to go the vet, but allow you cat to play and sleep in it occasionally.

The first aid kit you will need for your pet, whether for cats or dogs, is very similar to your own and should include items such as towels, gloves,

syringes, thermometer, hydrogen peroxide 3% (agua oxygenada), saline solution, an oral rehydration solution such as Sueroral, round and pointed tipped scissors, surgical tape, gauze, a range of bandages including adhesive elastic ones and prescribed items such as antiseptics and anti-inflammatories.

With these items you really can help to make your pet more comfortable and minimise the stress for everyone (including you) on the way to the clinic.

Initially the council paid an annual subsidy of €20,000 though two years ago this was reduced by 25 per cent to €15,000 and the rest of the money is raised through donations and fund raising efforts. According to the association’s president,

Size does matter?

According to the results of a new study, female dogs are smarter than their male counterparts – in some respects anyway.

Study researcher Corsin Müller is a cognitive biologist at the University of Vienna and tested female and male dogs to see whether they understand a concept called “object permanence”, which is the realisation that objects don’t disappear or change form just because they go out of sight. Using a wooden board and a system of blue tennis balls attached to strings the dogs, 25 female and 25 male, watched one of four scenarios: a small ball disappearing behind the board and re-emerging; a large ball disappearing and re-emerging; a large ball disappearing and a small ball emerging; or a small ball disappearing and a large ball emerging. The first two experiments were the ‘expected’ conditions, which didn’t break any laws of nature. The second two events, in which a ball would seem to get smaller or bigger while out of sight, were the ‘unexpected’ conditions.

“If something unexpected or, say, impossible is to happen, children and animals will look longer at the event,” Müller said. And in this instance it was the female dogs who stared for up to 30 seconds at the ‘unexpected’, while the male dogs didn’t notice anything odd had happened at all.

The Festival is the brainchild of Dr. Garik Israelian, an astrophysicist at the Instituto de Astrofísica de Canarias (Canarian Astrophysics Institute, IAC) and, backed by several international scientific institutions and organisations, will celebrate astronomy in a popular, appealing and dynamic way.

The Festival is timed to honour the legendary cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin, who became the first man in space on 12th April, 1961.

This ceremony will be held in the Magma Art & Congress Centre, Tenerife, in the presence of leading astronauts and scientists such as Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, Jill Tarter, Director of the Center for SETI (Search for Extraterrestrial Intelligence), Robert Williams, astrophysicist and president of the International Astronomical Union, Sami Solanki, Director of the Max Planck Institute for Solar System Research (Germany) and Joseph Silk, current holder of the Savilian Chair of Astronomy at the University of Oxford

(UK) among many others. The flight of Yuri Gagarin’s ship, Vostok 1, will be remembered by his companions, Valentina Tereshkova, the first woman cosmonaut, and Alexei Leonov, the first man to perform a space walk.

Astrophotography, space-art exhibitions, documentaries, star parties, talks and conferences are just some of the activities that will delight music fans and astronomy fans alike. A stellar cast of musicians, including Brian May and the band Tangerine Dream will give a concert at the Magma Arts & Congress Centre and there will, of course, be trips to the unforgettable observatories on La Palma and Tenerife.

For the first time ever the public can hear music made from the real sounds of celestial bodies. Renowned speakers and world experts will take part in a truly unique webcast event, the round table discussion 108 Minutes inside the dome of the GTC at the spectacular Roque de Los Muchachos Observatory on La Palma.

The Tenerife Cabildo is one of the sponsors of the festival.

Fimucité

Sounds in cinema S ince the idea behind the Fimucité festival took root in 2007 five years have passed and thousands of visitors have enjoyed hundreds of hours of amazing cinema tracks that have been played and sung live in Tenerife, with a glittering collection of visiting composers and conductors taking part.

The festival of cinema music, unique in the world, invites the public to enjoy, first hand, some incredible scores that have been written for the big screen, and this year will be no different. The festival runs from June 27th to July 2nd.

According to the festival’s director, Diego Navarro, himself a classical music composer, “In this short time, Fimucité has consolidated as a world reference of film music, becoming, during the week of the event, the epicentre of this art which has so many followers”.

This year’s list of guest composers is impressive, with Oscar winner Stephen Warbeck in a concert which will include the scores from Shakespeare in love and Billy Elliot. The festival will also host the premiere of the music from There Be Dragons.

Among invited guests will be Japanese composer Shigeru Umebayashi, author of the scores for House of Flying Daggers and 2046, marking the first time the festival has included Oriental film music.

British composer Patrick Doyle, author of the scores for Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein, Henry

V, Much Ado About Nothing, and the recent Marvel comic blockbuster Thor will also be here conducting the orchestra and choir suite premiere of this latest film.

The programme for the closing concert, on July 2nd in the Auditorium, in conjunction with the prestigious American film music label Varèse Sarabande, will pay tribute to great Bernard Herrmann, the composer of choice for Hitchcock’s films, and the late John Barry.

As well as the professional musicians the festival will see performances from members of the Santa Cruz Professional Conservatory Symphony Orchestra, the Tacoronte School of Music young orchestra and the youth choirs from the Granadilla and Adeje schools of music.

Fimucité 5 will take place in the Santa Cruz Adán Martín Auditorium, the Teatro Leal and the Teatro Guimerá with parallel activities and screenings in the Espacio Cultural CajaCanarias, the TEA and the Renoir Price Cinemas.

Fish from heaven

Illegal fishermen recently gave a group of pensioners a treat. They were arrested on El Socorro beach with 31 kilos of fish and nine kilos of limpets by the Civil Guard and face heavy fines. They then turned over the whole cache to an old age people’s residence in Puerto de la Cruz. One man’s loss...

Pineapple problems

The island council of El Hierro have asked that imports of prepacked, peeled, sliced and chopped pineapples to the islands should be halted immediately. They believe the imports are in breach of government regulations and may be a health hazard. The pineapple industry in El Hierro is very important to the local economy. They grow over 1,600 tons a year, which produces income of €2.5 million and provides 190 direct jobs.

Food and wine tourism

One of the courses in Adeje’s summer university is to be based on food and wine tourism. Called ‘food and wine tourism: the rich differenciator and developer of tourism’, the course will analyse wine and gastronomy tourism, an emerging sector in the tourism market, and involve various experiences in which taste will play a major part. The course is scheduled to run between July 18th and 22nd and will cover food and wine tourism in Portugal and Spain at the moment and its importance in drawing clients.

Cucumber crisis

As the first person to be infected by the recent E-Coli infection was admitted to a Tenerife hospital, the row over what seem increasingly like unfounded accusations about Spanish produce by representatives of the German government continue.

The female tourist who is now out of hospital lives near Hamburg, which would appear to be the epicentre of the infection. Local health authorities have confirmed that it is a 99 per cent certainty that the woman was affected by the same strain of E-Coli which has so far caused the death of 30 people and infected almost 3,000 others. They also underlined that the source of the infection was not in the Canaries or Spain.

At the time of going to print, the German authorities are now “almost certain” that the focus of the infection was beansprouts produced in their own

L country, but have still failed to officially apologise to Spain for their false accusations, which have caused so much damage to the agricultural sector in the whole country, including the Canaries. European aid to the tune of €210 million has been announced to help out the sectors in the countries most affected, principally Spain and France, but that will only cover 50 per cent of the losses and the central government is looking at making cheap loans available to farmers under the ICO scheme. Meanwhile an international court case against

the German administration to recoup the remainder of the loss looks likely.

A spokesperson for Fedex, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria’s fruit and vegetable exporter’s association, said that urgent measures were necessary if the “cucumber crisis” were not to last for a year or more.

They have called on the central government urgently to begin publicity campaigns to promote Spanish produce across the European Union in the face of “the worst crisis ever known” in the sector.

Tandoori treats and the best in Indian cuisine

ow price imports from Europe and the Mediterranean basin where there are lower production costs are being blamed together with the disappearance of the protection measures available under the Poseican scheme. Prices to the farmer have recently dropped from 80 cents a kilo to 40 thanks to pressure from foreign imports, which the agriculture association, COAG Canarias, claims does not even cover costs. Production in the islands is labour heavy due to the type of land that has to be used for farming, where little or no machinery can get to the fields.

According to the latest figures available, the amount of land under cultivation for potatoes in the islands has reduced by 37 per cent over the previous decade.

he farmers have called for economic aid to help finance the change which will mean that all egg laying chickens in the island will either be free range or be in floor level cages instead of being stacked on top of one another.

Some 50,000 chickens will benefit from the change but the cost to each farmer will be around €1.8 million. The Canarian Government has announced financial aid will be available for the changes, but so far it is unclear how much or when.

Katy column

Hi everyone, I

’d like to begin by thanking all the lovely people who have responded to my column in the last issue informing you all that entertainer Carol Vedmore had suffered a stroke.

Thanks go to Titch Cooper, Andy 0210, The Eldon House pub, and the Lions. A particular thank you goes to Tommy and Magdalena, from Los Abrigos. They are mother and son physiotherapists who are giving Carol great help and support with her recovery. If any of you should need their services, their number is 922 749077.

Likewise Malcolm Dobson, the hypnotherapist, who is giving Carol treatment to keep her motivated and upbeat to help her mentally towards a full recovery. His number is 922 729687.

Congratulations go to Phil and Fay from Sloop Bar on their 25th anniversary of having the bar and for their kindness in using the day, Thursday 9th June, to support both the Lions and Carol. I’d like to thank Christine Kaye and Sally Anne, the two acts I arranged, for giving the time to appear in the afternoon.

Carol would like to pay tribute not only to her lovely husband Eliot, who is a never ending source of kindness, good humour, and love, and to her lovely daughter Charlotte, but especially the amazing care she has received both during her stay in hospital and the care she has received since coming home. The many staff at the centre she attends every day have shown such dedication and are bringing her life a little closer to normality with every week that passes with their treatment.

When I first saw Carol five weeks ago, her mouth was turned down, as was her right eye. Now you would have to look closely to spot the difference to her left side. She could only walk by dragging her right foot, yet now, with a crutch, she can lift her foot to train it to walk again. Her right arm was just an appendage that wouldn’t move, and the fingers were clawed. Now, thanks to her treatment and her own hard work and determination, she can almost turn the hand over, and can very slowly touch each of her fingers with her thumb.

She’d also like to thank all the people who have taken the time to give her a call and says it has spurred her on to try even harder. Her number is, 922 703223, and she’d love to hear from you.

As many of you know, I’m a keen bridge player and my regular partner every Monday afternoon is a rather special lady. We are both very keen on the game, but should one of us make a mistake, there are never any recriminations as we both know we are likely to do the same in the near future. We always enjoy our game and laughter abounds as the whole club is full of nice people and we all consider each other as friends.

Last week Jan arrived with a gift for me. Being a diabetic, and not always managing to eat at regular intervals, I try to remember to bring a banana to keep my sugar levels steady.. I only buy them in ones or twos as they go soft and mushy so quickly in the heat.

Well my pal gave me a present which is worth its weight in gold to a banana lover.

It’s called, ---wait for it, --a Banana Bag. It’s bright yellow, about 12 by eight inches, and has a toggled closing chord. I bought six bananas, still green but slightly yellow and put five in the bag, closed it, and put it in the fridge. I kept one out to see how quickly it went off.

This was the Wednesday morning. By Friday morning, the one I didn’t put in the bag was only fit to mash into porridge or a sandwich.

But the bananas in the fridge were still firm and lovely to eat a whole week later. The skins had gone yellow, but the flesh was cool and firm.

I’m told you need to choose bananas which have no obvious flaws and that the skin is whole and not damaged, and to go for slightly green ones. Well it worked perfectly for me, and I’m now contemplating buying the potato bag too as when I buy a big bag of potatoes, many have sprouted or gone soggy, as I‘ve found to my cost in the past two or three weeks, so I’ll let you know how I get on.

To buy these products and more like it go to the LAKELAND UK website (as often featured on the food pages in Island Connections) and follow the directions, and you’ll be delighted to know that they post to you here in Tenerife.

So until next time, take care of yourselves, but especially, take care of each other. ......... katykennedy@telefonica. net - Tel (34) 616 110 930

EDITION 645 :: 17/06/2011 - 30/06/2011 :: ISLAND CONNECTIONS

Paradise in Tenerife >>

Great holidays or a great day out T

he resort of Los Gigantes lies along the west coast in a little corner of Tenerife paradise. Named after the spectacular sea cliffs known as the ‘giants’ it offers a vast choice of things to do.

Many people return for their holidays year after year and so are aware of the amenities that are available in this lovely coastal resort. However this is not necessarily the case with holidaymakers in the larger resorts of Los Cristianos, Playa de las Américas and Costa Adeje who overlook this village at their cost.

Getting to Los Gigantes is relatively simple if travelling by car from the south of the island. Take the TF1 past Adeje and take the turn for the TF47 and follow the Los Gigantes sign. It is only 20 kilometres (12.5 miles) from the motorway turn-off and you will enjoy a fabulous coastal route with sea views just about all the way.

There are guided coach trips to take in the breathtaking views but a good alternative would be to use the Titsa bus service which again follows the same coastal road as you would take in a car. There are two services, route 473 runs every 30 minutes and takes in a few more stops than the faster route 477, which runs hourly.

Fares are very reasonable, only €6-€8 return from the Las Américas area, (30 per cent cheaper if you are using a Titsa Bono card). The bus stops at the tennis courts where a short downhill stroll brings you to the centre of the village.

For sun lovers Los Gigantes has a tranquil sheltered beach near the marina with surprisingly calm water compared to the large breakers hitting the cliffs and the

harbour wall. For those wishing to swim in a pool there are two lidos with excellent pools and cafeterias. One even has a bowling green with fabulous views of the cliffs and marina where you can pay as little as €3 per person per hour.

The marina is the centre of the waterborne activities.

Here you will find jet skiing, paragliding, sport fishing and many whale and dolphin boat trips. Short and long trips are available as well as charter hire of various types of seagoing craft and kayak trips for eyeto-eye contact with these fascinating sea creatures. Prices depend on the company, for example whether food and drink is provided and the length of the trip. For those who care for marine conservation, especially whales, the M/S Katrin donates a percentage of your trip cost for this cause.

Their booking office can be found at the top of the street leading to the harbour. They sail twice a day at 11:30 and 13:45 for two hours. The vessel is a refurbished original wooden cutter making this a truly magnificent experience.

After your trip, or as an alternative, take time to enjoy the variety of restaurants, bars and shops along the marina quayside that offer a wide range to suit all pockets and taste. Considered the best little bar on the marina, Offshore 44 is located toward the latter end of the walkway. Happy ‘2’ hours are 5-7pm daily.

Feeding the many fish in the harbour is a popular pastime so remember to take some bread even if it’s from yesterday, as the fish don’t mind.

In the centre of the village is the Holy Church Espíritu Santo and you are welcome to enter this Catholic and Anglican service church. The church is located in front of the Plaza, where you will also come across a good selection of restaurants and bars.

Is this charming village a place for a great holiday or a great day out? It’s both! Take a trip there to see for yourself.

Hyundai i10 Blue

EDITION 645 :: 17/06/2011 - 30/06/2011 :: ISLAND CONNECTIONS

News in Brief >>

plug-in, fitted as standard on all new i10s. As part of a class-leading equipment list, customers will also find four airbags, a six-speaker stereo system, electric windows and central locking as standard on all models. The versatile interior means you really can transport a growing family and all that travels with it.

Prices start at €7,990 for the entry-level model.

H

yundai has comprehensively updated its award-winning i10 city car range. The range-wide update marks the recent arrival of Hyundai’s first sub-100g/km Blue model, along with specification and design upgrades for the rest of the line-up.

The new and improved version of Hyundai’s entry-point model represents a significant step forward over the outgoing i10. The main changes are enhancements to design – both in the cabin and on the exterior. These key changes are in keeping with the brand’s bold and progressing design language, bringing a clear family resemblance between the new i10 and other recently launched Hyundais, including the sleek ix35 and ix20 models.

A new and improved range of Euro V compliant engines blend clean performance with excellent fuel economy and ultra-low emissions. The latest i10 introduces the all-

new 1.0-litre ‘Kappa’ engine, which replaces the old 1.1litre ‘Epsilon’ unit. This cutting-edge three-cylinder engine achieves a remarkable 67.3mpg combined: the sort of cheap-to-run credentials that will resonate with customers as the cost of motoring continues to rise. The popular 1.25-litre ‘Kappa’ engine has also been improved giving 13 per cent more power (85bhp), 9.2 per cent less

CO2 (108g/km) and 8.7 per cent better fuel consumption (61.4mpg) than the outgoing 1.25-litre ‘Kappa’ engine.

To make the most of the efficient new 1.0-litre engine, Hyundai has introduced an all-new model - the i10 Blue.

This special ‘eco’ edition emits an astonishingly low 99g/km CO2, so it benefits from lower taxation. It is currently the only sub-€10,000 five-seater car on the market to achieve

this, and the first of a family of Blue models which will emphasise Hyundai’s commitment to environmental technology.

The revised range consists of four trim grades - Blue, Classic, Active and Style - all offering exceptional value for money. Equipment specification across the i10 range remains impressive, with usually optional features, such as air conditioning and an iPod

All new i10s come with Hyundai’s world-beating Five Year Triple Care package, for total peace of mind. This package includes five-year unlimited mileage warranty, five years’ roadside assistance and five years of vehicle health checks. It’s an offer that is yet to be matched by any of Hyundai’s rivals.

The Hyundai i10 Blue has not only received special recognition as the most genuinely economical petrol engined car, but it has also been named Best City Car by CarBuyer.co.uk.

For more information, contact Rahn at Las Chafiras, Los Majuelos, Santa Cruz or CC El Trompo in La Orotava, or go online to www.rahn.es.

Barcelona’s ‘other’ Canarian Champions trio

MP3

Anthem action after Giro gaffe

Pedro, from Arico, is one of the club’s on-pitch Canarian stars

T

he Spanish authorities have taken the unprecedented step of sending a recording of the country’s national anthem to the organisers of international sporting competitions following the latest podium embarrassment.

The Ministry of Sport decided to act after cyclist Alberto Contador’s victory ceremony in the recent Italian Giro was marred by the playing of the old Franco anthem, complete with its fascist words. The incident, the second involving Contador, whose Tour de France win in 2007 was celebrated with the playing of the Danish national anthem, proved the last straw for Spain and an MP3 recording of the Spanish anthem was immediately prepared and dispatched to major events.

Back in 2003, the Davis Cup Final between Spain and Australia was held up when Spain’s sports minister ordered the Spanish team off court due to the playing of a military march called Himno de Riego instead of the official anthem.

A third Canarian component of Barcelona’s multiple trophy season may get less media exposure than the other two, but the club is in no doubt as to his importance.

Gran Canaria born Daniel Medina is one of the Spanish and European champions’ fulltime doctors but rarely receives a mention due to the club’s policy of barring its medical

staff from talking to the media.

While the performances on the pitch of Pedro Rodríguez (who scored the opener against Manchester United in the Champions League final) and fellow ‘Tinerfeño’ Jeffren Suárez, who is on the brink of making a definitive breakthrough to the first team, have made all the headlines, Medina has gone

Most of the top names are expected to participate, given that the event is only the second in the calendar and surfers will be anxious to chalk up as many early points as possible. The previous week sees the Tour open in Gran Canaria’s Pozo Izquierdo beach.

about his job discreetly, making sure Pep Guardiola had as a full and fit a squad as possible for the crucial run in to the league season and for the Wembley final.

Nadal the diplomat W

orld Number 1 Rafael Nadal showed in lifting the French Open crown for a record-equalling sixth time that he is not just one of the tennis greats but an able diplomat also.

Despite being very much the less favoured of the finalists in the eyes of the French crowd at Roland Garros and having to endure deafening applause when committing errors against Roger Federer, Nadal demonstrated his diplomacy at the trophy ceremony when he thanked the “wonderful fans for their support” and described the tournament as the “best in the world”, even managing to reel off several sentences in French to drive the praise home.

The tactful comments have raised his hero status even further in the international media, although some suggested he should have manifested his discontent at the way he was treated throughout the fortnight, when a large sector of fans were clearly rooting for his opponents.

Any team is capable of beating all of the others and at this early stage, for the first time in many a season, there is no clear favourite.

Over 35s league In a dramatic turnaround, a team formerly named Taboos, now Scruffy Macs, turn from a bottom of the league side to table toppers in less than a year with the trophy going to them at this week’s fixture.

Huge amounts of credit must go to Phil Dikes for his hand in the transformation of the side with some great moves in the transfer market. Throughout the side there have been some huge performances all season long and none more than from striker Ian Davis whose hard work and fine finishing has won the team many a point. Along with Ian there is also midfield duo Lee and Sparkey who have bossed the centre of the park all season and not forgetting capitan Phil who this season has rolled back the years making Scruffy Macs true and worthy Over 35s champions.

No doubt those who decided that June 10th was the perfect date for the open air event, held in the municipal football grounds from 5pm to 9pm, were thinking that the only weather-danger that might present itself would be possible late afternoon sunburn rather than a hint of rain, but in the end it didn’t matter.

straight for the bouncy water castles, the real hit of the evening. The little ones just didn’t seem to tire of running down a slippery, slidy corridor and ending up in a splashy pool of water with their mates. What greater fun could there be?

The answer was of course the foam party, which was eagerly anticipated and didn’t let the kids or their parents down. Berni, Adeje’s sporting mascot, was in attendance, as were many of the borough sports monitors who have given their time and dedication to their respective sports and young charges over the year.

game ended with a narrow win for Las Palmas, their first derby victory home or away since 2002.

After the game the travelling support were led via the back roads down to the port of Las Palmas and the wait for the slow ferry home. Arriving back in Santa Cruz at 1am the trip had been more about showing face and loyalty to the club rather than any interest in the result. Next season the blanquiazules will be back on the island of Gran Canaria for their matches against UD Vecindario and Universidad de Las Palmas in the second division B, hopefully in happier circumstances!

The Canarian derby is normally a passionate event that stops the whole archipelago but this season’s encounter was a watered down affair.

With CD Tenerife already relegated and Las Palmas having secured their survival, local bragging rights were the only thing at stake. Although it must be admitted that even a blanquiazul win would not have made up for their horrid season.

Under normal circumstances up to 2,000 Tenerife fans make their way across the water for the derby but on this occasion only a small group of brave souls were prepared to face the mockery of the yellow masses. I was part of the supporters group for this daunting expedition.

The match day and kick off time were only confirmed days before resulting in last minute travel arrangements having to be made. To start with not one single coach company on Gran Canaria was prepared to transport the Tenerife fans due to past incidents. Luckily just two days before the trip, travel agency Viajes Halcon put together a ferry/coach/ match deal for the reasonable price of â‚Ź69.

Leaving the port of Santa Cruz on the morning of the game we were guarded the whole time on the ferry by

police and rather dramatically trailed by a police helicopter for the one hour crossing.

Spirits on board were good despite the trip being a ‘worse case scenario’ adventure. We had already accepted relegation, so we were just making the best of a bad situation.

On arrival at Agaete on the north coast of Gran Canaria more police joined the cavalcade. It was slightly surreal to see eight riot vans and forty police protecting one coach load of supporters as we weaved our way to the capital. It is the type of journey on which you will see woman pensioners sticking their fingers up at you from apartment windows when they realise you are Tenerife!

We were all taken to a secluded area of the sports Marina in Las Palmas to wait until nearer kick-off time when we would be taken to the stadium. The atmosphere at the Siete Palmas stadium was carnival like. The celebration of seeing their local rivals in crisis was too good a chance to miss and the streets were thronged with yellow clad revellers. Tenerife basically played with a second string eleven with four more debuts by players plucked from the B team. This was partly due to the huge injury list but also due to the risk of injuries to the higher paid players. A bad injury could spell disaster as they would not be able to be transferred in the summer and a major clear out is required.

Tenerife gave a good ac-

count of themselves in the first half and the youngsters were coping well. The game was turned on its head though by a dubious penalty awarded to the home side and Sergio SuĂĄrez converted to make the score 1-0. More bad news for Tenerife was the horrific cruciate knee ligament injury to Pablo Sicilia which will keep him sidelined until after Christmas.

Fortunately an insurance policy will cover his wages until he returns to action. The banter flowed on the terraces as the yellow home fans taunted their rivals with Carnival type humour. A huge cardboard tram ‘Tranvia to 2nd B’ passed us by as well as various blue and white coffins.

The second half proved to be a carbon copy of the first with plenty of spirit shown

by Tenerife but the clearer chances falling to Las Palmas.

Sergio Aragoneses was again excellent in goal saving efforts by rising star Jonathan Viera and Sergio SuĂĄrez. Dubarbier almost equalised for the blanquiazules and a Mikel Alonso header was saved by the Las Palmas keeper. The home side were awarded another penalty towards the end of the game after a clumsy challenge in the box. This time Josico stepped up but his weak penalty was saved.

Late on, the best move of the match saw Javi Guerrero try an audacious over kick head but it was superbly saved yet again by Aragoneses. The

Latest news In a dramatic week, one of the biggest clear outs in the history of Spanish football has begun at CD Tenerife.

New director of football Pedro Cordero has been wielding the axe.

Out • Manager David Amaral who still had a year left on his contract. • Assistant manager Quique Medina who will now take over the B team. • Every single first team player apart from Omar Ramos, Pablo Sicilia (due to his injury) and a few youth players. • Long time club man Toùo Hernandez. • B team manager Alfredo Merino. • All ticket office staff as well as a slim lining of club staff at the headquarters in Santa Cruz.

The only people to survive appear to be the ones who got us into this mess in the first place. Rumours currently abound that two separate ‘platforms’ are striving to make themselves heard regarding the running of the club. They both want to see CD Tenerife nurturing local talent rather than turning to the mainland or further afield for players and management.

The planned three-way collaboration between Italian team Udinese, Granada and CD Tenerife is likely to see young trainees from Italy plying their trade on the Island.
