Labour law reforms A

s we go to press the new and somewhat controversial labour laws proposed by the Spanish government are due to be voted on.

Spanish premier Zapatero has already tried, unsuccessfully, to bring the main unions on board but the proposals would appear to be a pill just too bitter to swallow. However he and many international economic commentators would argue that the country’s current

It is also widely expected that the current provision of severance pay of 45 days per year worked will be cut – from anything from 33 to 20 days, depending on the repor ts. However how the proposals are going to affect those on existing permanent long term contracts remains to be seen.

labour laws are too inflexible and changes, in Zapatero’s words, “will ease job creation, employment stability and will generate confidence in the Spanish economy over the medium term”. Some of the measures proposed include a limit to the length of fixed term contracts to two years (which can be extended by a further year), there are also plans to create a fund for workers co-sponsored by the government that could be

Explosive opportunities W

hilst for some the thought of an eruption means head for the hills, for many others it is a time to pack their bags and get as close to the action as they can. In Japan for example a whole industry is built around the dozens of live and extinct volcanic cones. Often visitors will return several times a year to enjoy the landscapes in their various seasonal aspects. Since the eruption of Mount Unzen (1990-1995) they have established several tourism sites including memorial halls and museums to cater for the daily busloads of tourists and many active volcanoes are included in the country’s trip agendas. According to Patricia Erfurt Cooper of Australia’s James Cook University, “volcanic and geothermal areas are becoming increasingly popular for travellers who are looking for unique experiences in unusual natural

environments. Often located within protected areas such as national parks, geoparks or world heritage sites, volcanoes and their related features such as hot springs, geysers, terraces and boiling mud ponds are integrated in the tourism sector in many countries worldwide.” The Stromboli volcano in southern Italy draws regular visitors to witness its daily eruptions and in out of the way areas an increase of over 30 per cent in local tourism figures has been registered when volcanic action begins. Closer to home, the Timanfaya National Park in Lanzarote is a huge draw every year, as is the Cueva del Viento volcanic tube in Tenerife’s Icod de los Vinos and the Teide National Park, the most visited park in Spain and a World Heritage Site (2.8 million visitors in 2008). The Canarian Government’s tourism department is even now working on a promotional movie featuring the large vari-

ety of volcanic formations and structures forming impressive and spectacular landscapes in the Islands. Called Volcanic Experience and filmed in a documentary style, the film compares various volcanic features of the Canaries with

volcanic phenomena in our Solar System and claims that, “the Universe is here”. A so far unexplored area are the possibilities presented by the hot springs, of which there are 10 so far documented in Tenerife for example. The

e caught up with Doctor Simon Day of the University College London at the conference, a scientist who became renowned worldwide after a BBC programme highlighted his theor y that a part of La Palma could collapse into the sea and cause tidal waves along the American coast and the Caribbean. Day’s theory has been called into doubt by many other scientists who claim that it has no scientific base, but he sticks to his guns and claims that an eruption in the island will prove whether or not he is right. His comments over the Chinese whispers effect of the original investigation and its publication highlight something the scientific community is in agreement with, the need for a single voice from the experts during an emergency. Post BBC documentary, most of the discussions in the international press were not based on his theories, but on what had been reported of his theories. Day, who describes himself as, “a tsunamologist rather than a vulcanologist, if such a thing existed” is now concentrating his studies in Papua New Guinea and Cape Verde and spoke about ‘Black Swan’ events. The theory is that if every swan you have ever seen is white, then all swans are white. However there are black swans, “a rather ugly Australian bird”. What he wanted to prove by this metaphor is that if within the historical

If all the conferences in Tenerife were organised as well as this one,Tenerife would be a popular destination and an international byword for holding this type of event. Hosted by the Cabildo and the Fundación Canaria ITER, Nemesio Pérez of ITER and his team did an incredible job of bringing together a diverse group of people from all over the world into a successful and interesting ambience. The overall opinion from attendees was the mix of professional volcanologists and geologists with investigators, educators, civil defence groups et al was what made the event such a hit. There were 864 conference members, 226 from Spain and the rest from 53 other countries worldwide. In addition to the conference itself there were exhibitions of professional art and 450 schoolchildren submitted work created from a variety of imaginative material including popcorn as part of their display.

La Laguna and LM Producciones A re b r i n g i n g l i v i n g legends to Tenerife next month when The Beach Boys take to the stage in the Pabellón Santiago Martín on July 7th.

ormed in 1961 The Beach Boys personified California and all that it meant, especially to those of us living outside the United States of America during the 60s and 70s, with a string of hits that are classics today. The original line up of three brothers, Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson were joined by Mike Love and Al Jardine, and later David Marks and Bruce Johnston and the sound they created inspired more than one generation. The Beach Boys were induced into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1988, and according to Billboard Magazine have sold more albums and than any other band in the United States.

Question:

With what USA state are the Beach Boys associated?

Baby gets 36 cent rebate A

mong the anecdotes that inevitably arise during Tax Retur n month is the notification sent by the Tax Of fice in Asturias in northern Spain informing a taxpayer he was entitled to a rebate of 36 cents of a euro.

Over and above the cost in man hours of processing such a minute claim, the news was unusual because the recipient was an 18-month old baby, who came on the tax authorities’ radar when his parents opened a bank account for him at birth. It appears that the local of fice failed to spot the date of birth on the records sent from the bank and proceeded to calculate the baby’s tax liability for the insignificant interest earned on the account. “We put in about €400 to little Daniel’s account and tax was withheld on the interest paid at the end of the year. Someone at the Tax Office has gone to all the trouble of doing a full tax return for him and sent him a letter informing him he is due €0.36. To show how ridiculous this waste of time is we fully intend to make them process the payment’ said the bay’s father.

Tax returns

Phishing warning Spain’s Inland Revenue is urging people to be on their guard against a massive internet fraud designed to dupe computer users into disclosing their bank details Thousands of people have received messages allegedly sent by the tax authorities informing them of a problem with their tax return and asking them to confirm their bank account details, including their password for online access, for their refund to be paid. Anyone receiving the phishing message is asked not to reply.

High earners

No income tax hike The Canarian government says it has no plans to follow a number of other Spanish regions in raising income tax for high earners. Extremadura and Andalusia announced recently that they will soon introduce a higher tax rate for people earning over 60,000 and 80,000 euros per year respectively in order to increase government revenue. The move has been widely criticised but several other regional government have hinted they may follow suit in the coming months. However Canarian finance minister José Manuel Soria vowed not to add to the current income tax burden. “We have no plans to increase taxes, except the special duty on tobacco products, which is about to come into force. The increase is not for revenue generation reasons but because we believe that the very low prices in the Canaries can stimulate smoking, particularly among young people” explained Soria.

Canarian troops set for Afghanistan return

Unqualified failure

Some of the training will probably take place in Pájara

panish troops based in the Canar y Islands will be sent on another tour of duty to Afghanistan at the beginning of next year, the Army’s regional commander has revealed. Brigadier General José Ignacio Medina says the units earmarked for the return to one of the world’s most dangerous hotspots have already been informed but no date has been set for their departure. “Training will be stepped up as of now to ensure the soldiers are fully prepared

Attempts by the authorities in La Palma to fill permanent posts at the local Tourism Board remain unfinished after over four years of a plague-ridden selection procedure.

for the harsh conditions in the country and the danger the tour involves” explained the army’s most senior officer in the islands. It is thought a large part of the preparation will take place in Fuerteventura, where the army’s Pájara training ground is described by the General as “the nearest thing to Afghanistan we will find anywhere”. One Canarian solder has died so far in Afghanistan. Cristo Ancor was killed when his convoy was blown up by a landmine in Heart province last October.

Flying pests

Holiday scam warning A

s bookings pick up for the summer season in the Canaries, warnings have been sounded on various holiday forums to watch out for bogus offers of cheap holiday accommodation. Complaints have surfaced on forums in Fuerteventura and Tenerife by people duped into parting with cash in part or full payment for apartments only to find that the seller was bogus. One victim, a

lady from North Wales, booked a holiday in Caleta de Fuste (Fuerteventura) in August for 12 nights and paid £420 in cash upfront, only to find that the website she did the booking on closed down soon after and she has been unable to contact the firm by e-mail or phone. Although she realises she has lost her money, she and friends are determined to trace the con artists and have contacted police about the matter. Similar stories have been reported in Tenerife since the beginning of

the year, when holidaymakers ‘stung’ by a company purporting to rent apartments in the Parque Santiago area contacted a popular forum to warn others about their experience. Most of the victims admit they should have used a credit card or a system such as Paypal for their bookings instead of cash or bank transfer. Bona fide renters have expressed concern that the scams will deter people from booking apartments and encourage them to look to hotels instead.

Las Canteras

Las Palmas Flag decision

as Palmas council has defended its decision not to seek the Blue Flag award for the city’s Las Canteras beach.

Just hours after it emerged that the flag would not be fluttering on the hugely popular beach this year, the corporation issued a communiqué setting out the reasons for the absence. In the note, it stressed that it had deliberately not applied

to the awarding body, the Foundation for Environmental Education (FEE), in order not to be turned down because of the various renovations made of late to the beach and its adjoining facilities. “We knew there would be issues with things like the new changing rooms, the sand that had been removed as part of a major upgrade project and, in particular, the minor pollution problem suffered some

time ago. All of these would have led to us being seen to be in breach of the FEE criteria so we opted not to submit Las Canteras for a flag rather than be rejected”, said the council. This year will be the first since 1989 that the beach, recently voted the best in Spain by readers of a national financial newspaper, does not fly the Blue Flag. In all, 34 beaches in the Canaries have been awarded the flags for 2010.

Tourism jobs‘agony’

Unions

Strike humiliation

The low turn-out for the June 8th public sector strike in the Canaries has been interpreted as a further sign that union power is on the wane.

fficial figures put the support for the oneday action in protest at civil ser vice wage cuts at just 11 per cent. The stoppage caused very little disruption to local government, schools and hospitals. The turn-out for the demonstrations held on all the islands was equally poor, with just a small fraction of the region’s 165,000 public sector workers attending.

nions had billed the protest day as a rehearsal for a general strike throughout Spain if the government pushes ahead with its controversial labour market reform but may now have to rethink their strategy if they are to avoid further embarrassment.

he first procedure was ruled unlawful by a Tenerife court, which upheld a challenge by unsuccessful candidates who complained of marking irregularities in the competitive exam taken. Now another ruling has set the process back again, this time because the panel members who judged applicants’ language proficiency in English, French and German were not themselves qualified to do so. The decision means that the language tests will have to be repeated and assessed this time by qualified linguists, a process which could take several months to organise, admits the island’s tourism chief Beatriz Páez. “To comply with the judge’s ruling we need to use Official Language School teachers or university staff and summer is now upon us so we will not reconvene the panel until September at the earliest” said Páez.

Bus crash

La Palma death

La Palma suffered its first serious bus accident in over 30 years on June 8th when an elderly passenger died after the bus she was travelling on left the road and rolled 30 metres down an embankment.

he 74-year-old woman died and five others were injured in the tragedy, which occurred around 10am in the town of San Andrés y Sauces.

Fiestas furore

Greece error

The mayor of Arrecife has admitted that the decision to allow a delegation from the Lanzarote capital to spend a week in Greece earlier in June to attend a meeting of European Carnival Cities was illadvised.

ayor Cándido Reguera authorised the trip to Patras for his ‘fiestas’ councillor and a small team of advisers and officials but news of the expense led to a furious reaction not just in the council but among readers of the local media, who slammed the unnecessary expense. “With hindsight I realise that the trip to the Carnival Cities Conference did not send out the right message when we are urging everyone to tighten their belts during these times of crisis” confessed Reguera. Opposition members have challenged the mayor to demonstrate the usefulness of the costly visit to Greece in terms of improving or raising the profile of the local carnival.

They also want an itemised account of the money spent by the delegation during the stay in Patras.

Valleseco

Horse doper

The recent fiestas in Valleseco (Gran Canaria) served to help net a man who sold illegal doping substances to horse owners.

fficers from the Civil Guard’s Animal Protection Unit spotted owners acting suspiciously outside the local race track minutes before a programme of five races was due to commence. They moved in quickly and discovered that the animals were being injected with clenbuterol hydrochloride, a steroid-like product used as a bronchodilator for horses to alleviate breathing problems. The substance increases the horse’s pain threshold and has been banned by the Spanish Equestrian Federation for some years. The man who was administering the drug faces prosecution for a number of animal health and traf ficking of fences. The horse owners have been reported to the Canarian equestrian authorities.

Flying pests

Outfit expense

Crisis clothes?

As reported in our last issue, Canarian President Paulino Rivero is at the centre of a new financial storm just weeks after his use of an emergency services helicopter for non-urgent travel was criticised in Parliament.

ivero has been called on this time to justify a bill for €1,200 euros submitted by a fashion designer for a dress designed by her at a ceremony back in January. The outfit was made expressly for Rivero’s spouse, Angela Mena, who accompanied her husband on an official engagement at the Naval Base in Las Palmas. Critics say the bill, which included fashion advice from the designer, was far too high and the expense was unjustified, particularly in times of crisis.

ne day later, regional newspaper Canarias Ahora revealed that payment of another €1,200 bill, this time for four ties and some neck-scarves, had been authorised recently as “protocol expenses” by Rivero’s office.

Rats with wings Pigeons are becoming an increasing irritant in La Gomera.

he number of so called urban pigeons on the island has increased substantially over the last few years, to the extent that populations of other birds have been displaced. Listen for the sound of blackbirds singing, or finches chirping, and what you hear, especially around centres of population, is cooing, loud and strong. The others seem to have disappeared. Pigeons - the island’s new pest. Apart from ousting other species from their nesting sites, they are efficient ravagers of domestic fowl feed, seeds, seedlings and crops, and exuberant and prolific when it comes to leaving their droppings. Their cooing is no longer the gentle

By Barbara Belt background sound it was. It is monotonous and enervating at these new levels. Pigeon pie would be the natural result of such abundance of slow flying food in other circumstances, but most modern Gomeros would rather get a chicken out of the freezer than pluck a plump pigeon. Thus, predator-free to coo, plunder and reproduce, the already enormous pigeon population grows, as do the problems it causes. The port and ferry terminal in island capital San Sebastián are, according to staff, “becoming impossible to keep clean” because of the pigeons. Ruben M, who works in the terminal building, says, “...the

whole situation’s got out of hand. We have to get rid of the bloody things. They’re worse than rats. At least rats hide. This lot are all over the place. They nest under the eaves up there and try to steal food off the tables on the patio while people are sitting there! They’re totally fearless. “It’s got to the point where passengers can’t use the outside terrace. The tables and chairs are constantly soiled by pigeon droppings and it’s unpleasant being out there. It seems ridiculous that a flock of unwanted birds can hold the whole place to ransom”. The port authority has announced that it is “...exploring options to eradicate, or at least reduce, the menace”.

Adeje assists

School book funding A

deje council has already issued guidelines for parents who may qualify for financial assistance in purchasing school materials for the 2010/2011 academic year. According to education councillor Epifanio Díaz Hernández, parents of children attending infants, primary and secondary school may be eligible for the grant. He said, “all our efforts are concentrated on making the mechanism for applying for such aid easier and more effective, reducing the documentation needed as well as the number of trips to and from offices, and at the same time guaranteeing that students will have their basic schools’ materials at the start of the course without families having to be out of pocket in advance”. The amount of aid has now increased to €80 per pupil and will be granted in the

form of vouchers relevant to each school at each academic level. These vouchers can then be exchanged in any one of the bookshops/stationary shops which are part of the scheme in conjunction with the council. Eligibility will be based on a formula which will consider the joint income of parents and the number of family members as well as mortgage/rent paid monthly. Parents/guardians have until August 10th to apply for the grant, and can do so at the following schools between 9am and 1pm on weekdays.

June 28th – July 9th: Los Olivos

Prospective grant applicants can also call 922 756243 for appointments, which it is hoped will further ease the application process.

July 10th – 21st: Fañabé and Armeñime July 22nd – August 2nd: Tijoco and Las Torres August 3rd – 10th: IES Adeje and IES Adeje II.

The centre, three storeys, with the potential to serve the local growing population well, hasn’t operated for a single day, and is now, according to the head of the local residents’ association, Antonio Magdalena, “obsolete”. He added that despite a number of letters to the regional minister for health, Mercedes Roldós, “she hasn’t deemed to explain the serious deficit in the local public health service in Playa San Juan”. According to mayor Pedro Martín the council have been extremely patient to date despite the various delays suffered in the construction of the centre, first promised in 2002, which was supposed to be fully operational by 2006. “We are speaking about the health and well being of the most populated town in the borough of Guía de Isora”, he said. The mayor added that as of now they would be taking “other measures, parliamentary interventions….reserving the right to take any other action we consider necessary” in working to ensure the opening of the centre.

Speaking on a Canarian TV programme, Melchior said the economic crisis necessarily meant that major infrastructure projects, including the train and the extension of the capital’s tram route to Los Rodeos Airport, would have to be delayed by several years.

Regarding the lowest rise, in the use of the yellow container, he pointed out that these items (juice and milk cartons and plastic bottles for instance) are the highest contaminants in the home, but people are recycling them the least, despite the fact that in most homes they would generate the highest proportion of non-organic rubbish. The ongoing campaign has seen over 1,000 borough residents attend workshops on recycling rubbish and collecting one of the free rubbish separating bins being given away to those in attendance in towns and villages in Adeje.

Conflicting rulings

The future of Las Teresitas beach is still unclear

Blaze

Airport bus scare

Tenerife judge at the centre of an embarrassing ruling gaffe could face an inquiry by the judicial authorities.

Judge Francisco Plata, who deals with proceedings involving administrative bodies, including councils and other forms of government, hit the headlines earlier in June when two totally contrasting decisions were notified to the parties involved in the ongoing controversy over the demolition of a car park and shopping centre on the Las Teresitas Beach in Santa Cruz. Opposition parties on the city council voted in September 2009 to have the unfinished structure, which has triggered a furious reaction from the people of Santa Cruz, pulled down but the mayor Miguel Zerolo appealed against the decision in court. In one of the most extraordinary legal gaffes seen here, the court sent a copy of the judge’s ruling to Zerolo’s party and another copy to the PSOE party, which led the demolition motion. The only problem was that

Passengers on the airport run between Tenerife South and Playa de Las Américas had a scare recently when their bus caught fire as it travelled down the motorway.

he service had just left the airpor t at around 4pm when the passengers, mostly recently-arrived foreign tourists, alerted the driver to smoke billowing from the engine at the back of the bus. The driver pulled over on the hard shoulder of the motorway and radioed for assistance while the passengers alighted calmly.

Judge could face probe the content of the copies could not have been more different. In one, Judge Plata upheld the appeal against the council decision and ordered the demolition to be suspended, while in the other he dismissed the appeal. The

rulings were published in the local media and even received headline billing in top Spanish daily El Mundo. Plata insists the only valid ruling is the one in favour of the mayor but legal experts say

the case is far from clear and have called for a full inquiry into how two completely different documents could have been drawn up and notified to the parties through the proper channels.

New route challenge

Radar to trap drug boats A

new radar station has been set up near Los Silos on the Tenerife coast in a bid to detect boats carrying drugs to the island from neighbouring Morocco.

According to the La Opinión newspaper, the Civil Guard now believe the traffickers

have deliberately changed routes to land with their cargos in more northern parts rather than their traditional spots in Arico and Guimar. The decision to position the mobile radar station in the hills outside Los Silos was taken after three boats with outboard motors managed to reach the Buenavista-Los Silos area undetected within the space of a few weeks in May.

In the third case, police discovered 66 kilos of marijuana packed in watertight bundles anchored to the seabed off Teno and apparently awaiting collection for distribution. A Civil Guard source said the traffickers were becoming more sophisticated, equipping their boats with auxiliary engines and fuel drums to enable them to make several runs within a few days.

he fire brigade from nearby San Miguel dealt with the engine blaze and another bus was dispatched to pick up the passengers, none of whom were hurt in the incident, which caused major traffic congestion on the south-bound lanes of the motorway.

Ramón Miranda reacted angrily to the announcement, coinciding with the major international conference on volcanoes in Puer to de la Cruz, that the former Taoro Hotel had been chosen as the site for the Cabildo-sponsored Volcanology Institute. “Garachico has been pushing for two years to host the Institute and we had even earmarked

Other northern towns have also expressed surprise at the announcement. According to the Diario de Avisos paper, the mayor of Icod de los Vinos said he “hoped the decision was not final” and that the potential offered by towns other than Puerto would be explored fully before the Institute’s home is confirmed.

The firefighters will don their full firefighting gear, including oxygen bottles, for their section of the time trial race, which they have dubbed the Vertical Challenge.

Bajamar

Tourist train

The road train that ferried visitors around La Laguna’s historical zone until recently may be getting a new home on the north-east coast of Tenerife.

tourism promotion body based in La Punta and Bajamar wants to start up regular train routes along the coast as far as Valle Guerra to add to the area’s attraction for visitors. According to the El Día newspaper, permission is being sought from La Laguna council to use the train, which is similar to the one that carries visitors to the Loro Parque in Puerto de la Cruz. The stop in Valle Guerra would be at the local anthropology museum to boost visitor numbers.

Island run

Solitary success

Distance runner Jonathan Guisado needed days to recover from his gruelling solitary race around Tenerife, which took him 36 hours to complete.

uisado, who is from Badajoz in southern Spain, undertook the run in the first days of June, and said he was disappointed that no private or institutional sponsors answered his call for funding to raise money for medical research into sudden deaths among athletes. Despite the searing heat endured in becoming the first runner to complete the full 330 km lap of Tenerife, Guisado says the suf fering was worthwhile and he aims to repeat the feat in Gran Canaria in a few weeks, hopefully with sponsors this time.

Science week

Trinity school, recently voted one of the top schools in Spain, celebrated science week in May, with activities designed to promote awareness and enjoyment of science for all ages. Senior students gave demonstrations to primary pupils which included ‘sparks and flames’ ‘colour chaos’ and ‘exploding balloons’. There were also three competitions snap a bug (wild life photography), a paper aeroplane competition and a poster competition. Other events were a bug safari around the school and lunchtime science cinema. To round off the week there was a science quiz, which was the same one used for Science week in the UK. The students have been invited to share their photos and experiences with school children in the UK via the Science week website. Organisers are especially interested in the rare and unique wildlife that were caught on camera for the ‘snap a bug’ competition.

Child dies after pit-bull mauling A

Tenerife child has died after being savagely attacked by a pit bull less than a month after it was adopted by the family from a local dog shelter.

The horrific incident took place at the beginning of June during lunchtime as the boy and his mother entered their flat in the La Gallega district. The 20-kilo dog lunged at the three -year-old and locked its teeth around his throat. The youngster died a short time later in hospital. The father of the child is to be charged with criminal negligence. The tragedy has led to fresh calls for tougher regulations on the keeping of dangerous dogs. Less than three weeks ago a two-year-old girl was killed by a pit-bull in Pontevedra in Galicia, and there have been due to the tailbacks on the motorway. According to the local media, orders were issued to remove the cones ahead of schedule to alleviate the congestion, which stretched for many kilometres and jammed accesses to La Laguna. Some reports say passengers missed their flights from the airport due to the gridlock. One driver complained that it took him over 40 minutes to cover a short journey to Tacoronte normally done in 10. The idea behind the experiment was to assess whether a single lane would be enough to cope with the flow of traffic and, if so, to use the lane every morning as a contraflow to alle-

The owners of certain canine races (including pit bulls, staffordshire bull terriers, american staffodshire terriers, rottweiler and tosa inu (Japanese fighting dogs)) require a particular licence to own the dog, but differences between figures issued by official veterinary sources and councils on licences issued show that there are thousands of animals/owners without the required documents.

Pit bulls need careful training and handling

with all other creatures in their living space competing at the same level. Manuel Morales added that each race has particular characteristic, but what is often the determining factor in a dog’s behaviour or level of aggression will be the human it is most commonly in contact with. The expert also said that of course with certain breeds of dogs, such as pit bulls, who have exceptionally strong jaws and whose instinct is to bite can prove fatal, an exceptional level of care needs to be taken in education and training, especially if the dog is to live in a family home setting. Since 1991 27 people, 12 of them children, have died as a result of dog attacks in Spain. Pit bulls were listed as the dog involved in six of those 27 fatal attacks.

The Lady’s club, based in Santiago del Teide and Guía de Isora, get together once or twice a month for social events, meals or trips out. The group was started in October 2004 by Kate Bosley, Greta Dermott-Clerk and Sue Thornley and has become increasingly popular. Although membership fluctuates around the year, as many ladies return to their land of origin for the summer, there is now a strong base of year-round residents. Every month the group visits a different restaurant for lunch. In June the meal was held at the Los Pescadores restaurant in Los Gigantes and almost 30 people attended. The ladies also get together on the third Friday of every month at the Lagos de Cesar Hotel in Playa Arena and during the winter monthly talks are organised,

The competition is part of the third annual week of events geared at the borough’s youth, organised by the council, and the winner took home a cheque for €200. His winning design will be used on t-shirts worn to promote the event which is taking place from July 5th in the area, with a multitude of events on offer, from sporting to music, workshops, and lots lots more.

health and beauty. Outings such as shopping, theatre visits and educational trips are also regular events. The club is non-affiliated and membership is completely free, although everyone is welcome to buy a raffle ticket as the proceeds go towards the hire of the room. The club provides a

fantastic opportunity for women to meet together, widen their social circle and to learn and experience new things along the way. The group is open to anyone of any age or nationality, so why don’t you take the plunge to make new friends and call Margaret Heath on 922 857817.

Opposition parties in Santiago del Teide are demanding answers from the town’s mayor after learning that €35,000 have been set aside from council funds to pay private lawyers recruited to defend him in the Los Gigantes beach tragedy case. Juan Gorrín and one of his team face prosecution for criminal negligence over the deaths of an English and a Spanish holidaymaker who were killed by falling rocks on the Los Guíos beach in November of last year. An inquiry into the tragedy lays the blame partly on the council for not cordoning off the beach properly despite a previous rockfall incident a few weeks earlier. The hiring of private lawyers using public funds when Santiago del Teide has its own legal team looks set to cause bitter controversy.

o say that markets have been volatile over recent weeks is a bit of an understatement, with equities coming under selling pressure throughout May. The markets have been driven by fear and uncertainty - but although it is unsettling, it is normal to have corrections in a bull market. This can last from a couple of weeks to a few months, but does not usually disrupt the longer-term upward trend. In the past bull markets have not retired this early and second years following a major bear market bottom are generally positive. There is no denying that there has been a lot of bad news around. However, with much of the media focusing on the more dramatic stories, you’d be forgiven for thinking there was no good news. US consumer confidence increased for the third month in May, reaching its highest level in over two years. Consumers account for over two-thirds of US economic growth. The UK economy grew faster than first estimated over the first quarter of 2010, at 0.3

per cent. The Eurozone also posted moderate but positive growth of 0.2 per cent, ahead of expectations. While overall Eurozone growth may suffer marginally from problems in the ‘periphery’ countries, Germany and France (half the Eurozone economy) are fundamentally strong. Although one of the big fears driving the market is that of debt amongst the so called ‘PIIGS’, they are actually still managing to auction debt, with

demand sometimes outstripping supply. On 26th May, the Organisation for Economic Co-Operation and Development (OECD)’s Economic Outlook encouragingly raised its forecast for global growth to 4.6 per cent in 2010 and 4.5 per cent in 2011 (up from 3.4 per cent and 3.7 per cent respectively in November). It expects the US economy to grow by 3.2 per cent this year and next and the Eurozone to advance 1.2 per cent, compared

to its previous forecast of 0.9 per cent. Emerging economies will achieve a much faster pace of growth. OECD chief economist, Pier Carlo Padoan, told Reuters that recession in the Eurozone is unlikely, and that the decline in the Euro should help offset the effect of debt shrinking austerity measures on economic growth. This echoed views by James Bullard, Federal Reserve Bank of St Louis President who, speaking in London on 25th

May, said that the Europe crisis will probably “fall short of becoming a global recessionary shock. “Sovereign debt crises have been with us for many, many years. There is nothing intrinsic about such crises that they need to become important shocks for the broader, global macroeconomy.” Although volatility can test our nerves, investors should remember they are invested for the long-term and not to avoid a few weeks of volatility.

Credit cards

Card cancellation

Credit and debit cards are the payment methods most used in Spain for buying in shops, on the Internet or taking out cash.

or many people, the thought of living without their ‘plastics’ is difficult, but it could happen. Banks have the right to cancel your bank cards unilaterally at their convenience or if you, as a cardholder, break any of their rules and regulations. Card use is regulated by a contract. The clauses, length of time the card is valid, interest and charges are all part of a written contract with rights and duties laid on both parties.

he Bank of Spain sets out a series of specific stages which must be followed by a bank or credit company who wish to cancel a card. The decision must be based on objective reasons and the cardholder must be informed and must receive a refund of the annual fee for the unexpired part of the contract.

owever if there is a strong enough reason, the bank or credit company can cancel the card without notice, only notifying the client when the cancellation has been carried out. Again, the reasons are clearly laid out and run from death to insolvency. If your card is cancelled or withheld in a cash machine and you believe you are not in breach of your contract with the issuers, visit your local consumers’ rights depar tment in the town hall who will advise you what to do.

Employment

More jobs

Over 70,000 people came off the unemployment register in May, the second consecutive drop.

n April some 24,000 people found work and June saw 76,233 individuals with new contracts. The employment situation is still very serious with over four million unemployed in Spain and almost half a million more people than twelve months ago, but the May figure is considered by experts to be a good sign as it is the largest drop in unemployment in the last five years.

he service sector was the largest new employers, followed by construction, industry and agriculture. Some 3,823 people found their first job ever and reductions were seen all over the countr y from a drop in the Balearics of 7.68 per cent to the lowest decrease, here in the Canaries, of 0.05 per cent.

Electricity

Light waves

The electricity board has announced that they believe that electricity bills should increase from July by eight to nine per cent.

he president of the board, Pedro Rivero, warned that as in other countries we are moving from a situation of cheap primary energy costs to a tendency to increases, whilst claiming that the industry would try and make sure the increase in VAT from 16 to 18 per cent would reflect as little as possible on the clients. Rivero claims that the introduction of renewable energy has unbalanced the system creating a more difficult system to manage that is more expensive and less steady, but, “of course cleaner”. He asked that no method of energy technology should be cast aside and announced his belief that it would be convenient to develop a further 2,600 new megawatts of nuclear energy in the next decades.

Technology

Cloned in China

t would seem that Robin Hood is alive and well and producing cheap technology for the farm workers of China.

Some say the original ‘shanzai’ were Chinese bandits on the style of the legend of Robin Hood, opposing corrupt officials and distributing to the poor. The new ‘shanzai’ is copycat technology which sometimes betters that which is produced in America or elsewhere, and whose producers haggle with the official over the high taxes which should be paid in China for such items, with the tacit acceptance of the government that realise that it is the only way that the digital revolution will reach the far corners

of their country. Others put the root of the new adjective in the Cantonese accent of the Mandarin pronunciation of Shenzhen – shanzai. Shenzhen is the centre of Chinese technological production where brands such as Apple are produced for the world market. Whatever its origin, shanzai technology placed over a million mobile phones in the Chinese interior during 2007 and is also becoming increasingly popular outside China, threatening the big brands. Patent problems make legal sales in Europe difficult, but it is known that they are finding outlets in Africa. They copy and adapt all brands, but Apple is a particular target. It is believed that the new iPhone 4G is already being copied. The iPad has been copied as has the MacBook Air and according to some experts the shanzai version is better having additional features with the copied version of the former with three USB

New labels T

he European Union has decided on a new series of labels for home electrical equipment to help users save money and restrict damage to the environment.

Member states have a year to put the new system into use which now adds three new levels to the existing seven colours and letters from A (green and saves most) to G (red and wastes most). The new scale includes A+, A++ and A+++ to show the three extra levels of additional and maximum efficiency. Producers claim that the year timescale is unreasonable, but the European Parliament insists that the existing tickets were out of date based on products used over three decades ago. Most of the dishwash-

ports, HDMI multimedia links and a DVD reader. Even the names are similar, such as the Blockberry, which is similar to the popular Blackberry and whose marketing company has used a photomontage of the President of the United States, Barack Obama, to advertise their copycat mobile. The pirated brands have become a web cult among technophiles and could soon become a real headache for the major producers in the western world.

However the super savers are now capable of using around three times less energy. The new ticket rules are part of an energy saving and environmental package which also rules that buildings which begin construction from 2020 onwards will also have to have energy consumption levels close to zero. Public buildings will have to lead to way and be built to this standard by the end of 2018. The level of energy efficiency of constructions will be part of the obligatory information supplied to prospective buyers.

Gold dealers

All that glitters T

he crisis has caused a massive growth in some sectors such as second hand shops, pawnbrokers and those who buy and sell gold.

Many families have sold off old bits and pieces of broken jewellery and in some cases family treasures, just to keep going. The valuation is fast (normally a maximum of two days) and the cash is instantaneous once an agreement is reached, but a report by consumers’ magazine Eroski, claims that prices paid are well below the official market value. These businesses are not regulated by

law and their business is to buy low and sell high. To calculate the value of the pieces they buy they take into account two things, the purity of the gold and the weight. Despite the fact that gold prices are clearly displayed in the stock exchange in London, the prices paid are far below those established in international trades. The companies claim that the charges are due to the high intermediary and brokerage charges. As the businesses are not regulated the prices offered are varied. One of the on-line businesses of this type for example pays €23.48 per gram for 24 Carat gold. With gold prices per ounce (28.34 grams)

The current sy

stem uses seve n colour levels

on the London market at around $1,200, one gram is valued at approximately €35.46, over 30 percent more than the price offered. Families in tight financial situations, particularly those who have jewellery without any sentimental attachment, can find these establishments of great help. With the dropping exchange rates, investors have turned to gold shares as protection against the devaluation of their currency holdings, so it is not improbable that the price will increase even further. The final word of advice for anyone wishing to sell would be to shop around carefully and compare prices on offer.

Sales tips

Selling your property Y

ou may have found the home of your dreams and want to change, you may be returning to your country of origin for whatever reason, or sadly you can no longer afford the mortgage and have to sell, but with the market the way it is, how do you go about it? Look around you, simply putting up a poster in your window, to become one of many, is not enough nowadays. You have to differentiate your property from all the rest, apart of course from getting the sale price right. It’s a buyers market with a wide number, price and types of property on offer. Many of the sellers need to sell urgently and there is a possibility of bartering. Try a little homemade marketing to announce the qualities of your home and how it is different from the rest. Previously, financing a home purchase was not a problem and mortgages of over 100 per cent were not unusual, these days it is difficult to get a loan for more than 80 per cent of the value of a property. Owners must understand that their property is no longer worth what it was three years ago and if they don’t adjust their price to that reality, it will be difficult indeed to sell it. If a home is on offer at a good price and the buyers can afford it but it still doesn’t sell, it will probably be because there are a number of similar properties on sale at the same price at the same time and the buyer will go for the best equipped. Here is where an owner can work to improve the quality of their offer. Learn to use all the sales channels, the poster in the window, the newspapers and the specialist estate agents. Nowadays, Internet is also a powerful tool which can also attract attention from outside your immediate neighbourhood. Forget about the illegal posters in bus stops

or phone booths, they don’t work and cheapen your property. Choose the data you wish to give about your property and organise it carefully to give complete and clear information without going over the top. Basic information should include where the home is, the overall size, age, number of rooms, bedrooms and bathrooms, if it is an inside or outside property in the case of an apartment, the height, whether or not there is a lift, the heating and/or air conditioning system, the price and if there has been a reduction in the same this should be emphasised. Fill out the details with the most positive aspects of the property, whether or not it faces south or the views for example, the type of flooring and if it is an interior property but nonetheless has a light and sun filled aspect it is very important to say so. In the same way if the property is older but has been subject to modernisation and reform, it is also of great benefit to mention it. Added details which offer comfort, practicality or make the property easier to acquire are also a plus and worth mentioning. Look around and see if there are other properties of the same size and type, what makes yours the best? How is it different? The structural reforms, the quality of the bathroom, lighting and kitchen fittings, the amount of light, the peace, the level of safety, the existence of a full time porter are all factors which can make the difference. Does your property have a storage room, off the road parking or garage space, is it fitted out to be disabled-friendly, or does it have an unusually large terrace? How far are you from the local shops, a good quality supermarket, health and education services, parks, sports facilities and public transport? Your home may not be central, but it could still be on good communication routes.

The image is worth a thousand words and in this case could make the difference of whether or not you sell your home. A photograph in the advertisement is vital to increase your chances of success. In the Internet you have the opportunity to show a selection of photographs of all the corners and rooms in your house. However the quality of the photographs and the ambience they show is also important. Frame your image carefully and choose the time of day when the natural light is most favourable are two of the most basic tricks to get a good final result. Try to avoid taking photographs when the blinds are down or at night time and if you must use a flash try and make sure it doesn’t reflect in the window panes. The aspect of a home is much more than just a photograph, it is how it is decorated and looked after and the impression it gives when you see it. Cracks and imperfections should be repaired, paint and varnish if necessary and of course the property should be scrupulously clean. It is also convenient to get rid of excess furniture to give an impression of more space and organise objects well. Lighter colours in decoration and painting show best. Remember less is more. If you have between €1,000 and €3,000 to invest in a quick sale of your property you may want to consider hiring an expert in ambience. These specialists will give your property a style makeover in a few days from the painting to the placing of furniture and even cleaning up. The idea is to work with the elements that are there and make the most of them and the qualities of the property to give a potential buyer a positive surprise and offer something more than just four walls and a roof - quality. The market is difficult but not impossible and a sale could be just around the corner with a very little effort and investment.

The most common form of headache is migraine

Dear Dr. I started working shifts a few months ago. I’ve been gaining weight and think they’re related since the timing coincides. Does that make sense? Sincerely, Julia

Dear Julia,

Headaches H

eadaches are among the most common reasons people consult us and are something that can limit day to day living.

USP Costa Adeje now has a specialist dealing with neurological problems. Dr Daniela Solea, the neurological specialist engaged by the USP Hospital Costa Adeje, says that “headaches can be so bad that they incapacitate the sufferer to the extent that they simply cannot function normally. “It is the number one reason why people seek neurological help in our hospital”. In 90 per cent of cases the reason for a headache is unknown and such headaches are considered mild or non-serious as they are not caused by any disease. On the other hand there are some types of head pain, which we call organic, which could be the result of a brain tumour, arterial hypertension, meningitis, etc. In this

instance one needs to first treat the cause and subsequently look for the right therapy to treat the headaches that have appeared due to the illness. According to Dr Solea, “the most common form of headache is migraine, an illness which presents itself through recurring pounding headaches, at varying levels of intensity, duration and frequency. “Migraines are associated with nausea, vomiting, photophobia (light sensitivity), and mood swings.” There are cases of migraine which affect daily life and worsen with physical activity but improve during sleeping hours. “Migraines affect 10-15 per cent of the population and are more common among women. “Fortunately the incidence reduces as we grow older”. She adds, “we can also recognise the triggers, which can be certain foods high in tyramine or caffeine. Environmental factors such as strong smells or bright lights play a part as does stress or relaxing after a stressful situation.” Above all treatment

is based on the elimination of the trigger factors and the most effective way of controlling the migraine is to prescribe preventative medication, to be taken when the sufferer feels the onset of symptoms. Another area of head pain is tension headaches, “where the pain is bilateral, a dull ache, oppressive, moderately intense, often described by patients as a tight band around their head”. This pain is frequently associated with depression and anxiety, where prescribing anti-depressants is often indicated. Additionally there is another headache group known as ‘cluster’, where the sufferer will experience bouts of frequent attacks during a period of time, over days, at the same time of the day. “Triggers in these cases can be stress periods and alcohol can also produce cluster headaches”, says Dr Solea. Other types of benign headaches can be linked to sexual activity, “in this case the headaches are more common in males and manifest during intercourse or immediately afterwards. This kind of headache responds well to treatment”. Headaches can also be caused by physical activity or by the ingestion of certain foodstuffs or incorrect use or abuse of medicines.

Sleep deprivation can sabotage your waistline and your health. It starts out innocently enough. When you have sleep deprivation and are running on low energy, you automatically go for a bag of potato chips or other comfort foods. The immediate result? You may be able to fight off sleepiness. The ultimate result? Unwanted pounds as poor food choices coupled with lack of exercise set the stage for obesity and further sleep loss. Sleep debt is like credit card debt. If you keep accumulating debt, you will pay high interest rates or your account will be shut down until you pay it all off. If you accumulate too much sleep debt, your body will crash. Not getting enough sleep is common. You hear people brag about it, but we do pay a price for staying up late and getting up early. If you work at night or often rotate shifts, you may share that risk. Working at night or irregular shifts can keep you from getting the regular snooze time that most daytime workers take for granted. Although not everyone who works odd hours has shift work sleep disorder, a lot can be at stake. People with shift work disorder have higher rates of accidents related to sleepiness, higher risk of ulcers, insulin resistance, metabolic syndrome, and heart disease among others. If your job requires that you work the night shift or hours other than the traditional 9 to 5, you need to pay close attention to your sleep. These tips can help you get good sleep:

- Try not to work a number of night shifts in a row. You’re more likely to recover if you can limit night shifts and schedule days off in between. - Avoid frequently rotating shifts. If you can’t, it’s easier to adjust to a schedule that rotates from day shift to evening to night rather than the reverse order. - Keep your workplace brightly lit to promote alertness. If you’re working the night shift, expose yourself to bright light when you wake up. Circadian rhythms are the body’s internal clock that tells us when to be awake and when to sleep. These rhythms are controlled by a part of the brain that is influenced by light. Being exposed to bright light when you start your ‘day’ can help train your body’s internal clock to adjust. - Avoid caffeine later in the shift. - Stick to a regular sleepwake schedule as much as you can and limit phone calls and visitors during your sleep hours. - Use blackout blinds or heavy curtains to block sunlight when you sleep during the day. Sunlight is a potent stimulator of the circadian rhythm. Even if your eyes are closed, the sunlight coming into the room tells your brain that it’s daytime.

He holds certificates in nutrition, medical exercise and human performance from the University of Berkeley in California, the American Council on Exercise and the U.S. National Strength & Conditioning Association. He is a strong believer in work/life balance and spends much of his time outside of his surgery on the tennis court, jogging or chasing his four kids around the neighbourhood.

Tenerife Moda at Barcelona Bridal Week T

enerife designers Marcos Marrero and Maria Díaz (M&M), members of Tenerife Moda which is promoted by the Cabildo, participated in the fashion show Gaudí Novias at the Barcelona Bridal Fair recently. Their original party designs on the catwalk couldn’t fail to arouse the interest of specialist media and the general public. Cabildo councillor for economic development, commerce and employment Efraín

Medina described the attendance of these two designers at fairs in Madrid and Barcelona as, “demonstrating once more the extraordinary work put into each of their collections”. With romantic cuts, subtle details and a vintage air, Marrero’s were inspired by the 30s. Those of Maria Díaz concentrated on raw colours with metallic finishes and effects. Sophisticated, luxurious and feminine, they are guaranteed to turn a woman into the star of the party.

Hollywood or bust!

Get in shape, feel like a star

ne phrase makes me mad every time I read it. There was an interview with some famous actress. She was asked how she prepared physically for her role as she wasn’t in such good shape before the movie. She gave the standard answer...

“I worked out three to five hours daily to get in shape for the movie“. This statement is a lie! Maybe a professional athlete works out that much, but not an actress. The physiology makes it impossible. As they are not professional athletes their bodies need more time to recover than professional ones. It is not possible for an untrained person to work out that long. Besides

that, a professional doesn’t train for five hours in a row. He might have two two and a half hour sessions and a one hour one spread over the whole day. So you see it cannot be true. But why do people lie about this? They want to show you how special they are. They want to show that not everybody can do this. They want to show you perhaps that they are better than you. But let’s look at the facts. First of all they are not working out themselves. They have a personal trainer. Some of them even have a chef and a nutritionist who prepares their food. Of course it is easy to get in shape if you

are surrounded by professionals. The bad news is that they have the money to do it or at least get their training bills paid by the film company. The good news is: you can do it too. We invented a programme which is called Bfit nutrition. This programme lets you have the same professional care as a Hollywood star. You will have your own personal trainer, a nutritionist and a chef who prepares tailor-made food. You think this is expensive? It is not! One example. For €91.20 you would get four meals a day for six days a week. You will get measured by a professional coach and nutritionist (girth, body fat, weight, lean mass). Then you just have to pick up your individually prepared meals every morning in Los Cristianos or El Médano. Thats it! You can get your personal fitness coach as well. The personal coach will plan the workouts for you. So you get all the benefits of working out like a star even if you’re not earning megabucks. If you are interested in losing weight, getting in shape and/or building up some muscles, get in contact with us: info@bfit.es or 676243102

Sun protection

The sun and ageing

Tel. 600 557 763 · Open Daily

lthough sunhats and protection creams are our best anti-ageing tools in the sunshine, some dermatologists reckon that we can protect our skin from the inside.

The anti-wrinkle super-foods are apparently turnip greens, kale, red peppers, Cos lettuce, spinach, sweetcorn and more, which all contain antioxidants. If we increase the levels of anti-oxidants in our diet, theoretically we can limit sun damage and its ageing effects. According to researchers, Lutein, the yellow pigment found in these foods as well as in broccoli, peas and watercress, is able to increase the skin’s photo-protection levels, resulting in more moisturised skin and hence less wrinkles. They say you can eat enough Lutein every day to produce this effect if you tuck in to 150g of greens or a combination of these super-foods. Another way to increase your own skin’s protection against the effects of the sun is to eat more foods containing beta carotine, which include sweet potatoes, carrots and mangoes.

We love football Dear Editor

ne of the nice things about living in Spain is the fact that loads of us like football, and we’re not sneered at or our views ignored. No, I’m not a hooligan or a thug, I’m a female footie fan, and unfortunately in certain circles in some countries my views and my following of the glorious game isn’t taken seriously. But at least among the Spanish I have found that we women are accepted and respected as much as other fans – and any time I’ve gone to CD Tenerife games my roaring support for the blanquiazules and derisory colourful screams to the ref have been appreciated in every language. So bring it on. The competition we’ve been waiting for. And don’t tell me that there are loads

Sign of the times?

I’m not slagging of f McDonalds, a job is a job is a job, but I’m sure many of these young people had other hopes and dreams. Still, good luck to all of them, at least they’re getting up off their behinds and looking for something. It’s not easy out there as we all know and there are so many people out of work for so long. Yours John Albert

Now that’s an example of star treatment – a star treating others well. Nice one Alicia, you’re welcome back any time.

See picture below

Dear Editor

real sign of the crisis times – I was in Mercadona the other day and spotted loads and loads of people queuing up outside McDonalds (see photo below). At first I was sure there was some kind of great promotion going on, but when I chatted to one of the queuers I was told that they were all there with CV’s applying for one or two jobs in the store.

Apart from her great gig, she flew here on a normal flight, didn’t have any ridiculous demands – ok, apart from her piano flown in from London – stayed on for a few days to explore the island in private and donated some of the money she earned from the Tenerife concer t to the city’s social services as well as giving free tickets to some underprivileged kids here.

Enjoy your home rather than seeking excitement out in the mad world.  Sheep (1931, 1943, 1955, 1967, 1979, 1991, 2003 There will be chances to increase your income, and you’ll get the support you desire in all life spheres.

Set aside spare days for leisure.  Pig (1935, 1947, 1959, 1971, 1983, 1995, 2007) Be watchful for emotional snags arising, and try to sort them before they fully manifest. Even the least artistic Pigs will be inspired now to work more creatively.

Wimbledon starts this year, on BBC2, with a look back at 2009. It was a historic fortnight, both on the court, where Roger Federer won a record 15th Grand Slam title, and above it, with the Centre Court roof making its long-awaited debut. But Sue Barker takes centre court when she presents live coverage from the All England Club as the first balls at Wimbledon 2010 are struck. Roger Federer returns to defend the men’s singles title he regained last year, while British hopes rest with Andy Murray, who reached the semi-finals 12 months ago, his best result to date. Rafael Nadal missed the chance to defend his men’s singles title in 2009 because of injury so the Spaniard will be looking to make amends this year.

10,000 attend

Fans of singer Alicia Keys had to wait a while for their idol to appear on stage in Santa Cruz on June 6th but soon forgave the New Yorker, who gave a top-notch performance. Local media described the 90-minute concert as one of the best in Tenerife for a long time, making up for the disappointment of the Whitney Houston cancellation a few weeks ago.

Puerto to celebrate Día de la Música

he Day of Music was first celebrated in France in 1982, and coincides with the Summer solstice. Its objective is to promote music and offer concerts to the public free of charge. The event has now been internationalised and in the 2006 edition it was celebrated in 250 cities belonging to 120 countries, including Spain. This year, for the first time, Puerto de la Cruz will be taking part with free entry to a concert on June 19th at the fishing port, next to the Casa de la Aduana. The event has been organised by an association which unites professionals dedicated to the editing and production of independent discs. Seven independent emerging artists from the Canaries and Spain will be taking part. To date three of these have been confirmed: Aaron Thomas, born in Australia and a musician since his child-

T hood. He has published two CDs and his emotional music is influenced by artists from Elvis Costello to David Bowie and Bob Dylan to Elvis Perkins. Baden bah! Famous for their soft, poetic rock and lyrics loaded with messages based

on personal experience. They have published one album and several individual songs. Los Seis Días, a pop group from Barcelona, currently revolutionising the musical scene. The seven girls have toured Spain this year and have

adopted the best Anglo Saxon traditions. Their launch single Te Odio, is already an internet hit which has brought them new fans from Mexico, Argentina and the United States.

he Magma Arte & Congressos centre, as they promised, are working hard to bring more and more young people’s theatre to South Tenerife and they recently hosted over 1,400 young school children during a day time presentation of Lío en la Granja (Confusion in the Farm), produced by La Baldufa, and thoroughly enjoyed by all. Sponsored by Munchitos, the event saw eager young audiences from public and private schools in the area enjoying an excellent morning of theatrical fun and frolics. The next production is a musical version of Alicia en el Pais de las Maravillas (Alice in Wonderland), staged by the Clapso company, on Sunday June 26th at 6pm, closing this season’s successful school/ theatre run. Compliments to the team at Magma (Héctor Hernández, Ligia Martin , Santiago Arroyo, Pepe Torres) for initiating and maintaining this important new addition to South Tenerife’s cultural agenda, and both teachers and parents are more than delighted that they no longer have to travel to Santa Cruz or beyond to introduce their children to the world of theatre. Events are also being backed by the regional government, Audiovisuales Alonso&Alonso. La Caixa and Cicar.

Helpful hints for around the house

Adding an electric socket, PART 2

n the last edition we described the importance of using the right cables.

Now, let’s add a socket. Pics 1 and 2 Cut out the hole and the channel for the conduit, using a chisel and hammer. 01

Pic 3 Install the box and the conduit, using either screws or mortar. A finish coat of plaster should be applied. When this is set, usually the next day, you can proceed with the electrical connections. Here, Robert is plastering in the conduit.

At this point, you must switch off the main electrical supply at the fuse box. Pic 4 You can take your power supply from the nearest socket if there is one handy. If not, you will need to connect to the nearest main junction box. Connect the live to the live and so on, as shown in the diagram.

Pic 5 To pull the cables through the conduit, you need a draw wire (sometimes called a ‘mouse’).

ne of Tenerife’s cat lovers and charity workers Julie got in touch with this feel-good story, proving that the internet is good for pets too!

Julie told us that she recently joined the cat lovers group on Friends Reunited. She quickly got to know many members, and soon joined in the concern at the lack of contact from one member, Rose, in the UK. Soon their worst fears were realised – Rose had passed away, at home, alone, apart from her five beloved cats. The group then discovered that the five cats, Barnaby, Babe, Fred, and twins Lucy and Toby had been removed by the RSPCA and split between two centres in the Nottingham area. As cat lovers they were sad that they were no longer together and knew that Rose would have been horrified. But one member took it further. Vera, messaged saying that having recently lost her beloved Mr. Felix she would have all five to ensure they stayed together. Soon the group mobilised to make this a reality. They discovered that the cats had been split between two centres, and managed to contact them to

beg them to hold onto them until Vera could pick them up. Help from many quarters saw a 500 mile drive undertaken in one exhausting day, with Vera, to collect and bring home all five cats. Four of the five cats were in relatively good spirits, but poor Toby was in a bad shape, traumatised by his separation from his previous owner and housing in what were less than clean conditions. But he was coaxed into a carrier and is now recovering.

help closer to home, a large enclosure has been built in Vera’s garden to allow the cats to enjoy the great outdoors without getting lost, they have had vet visits and are on the road to recovery, even though Toby still prefers to hide under a blanket or in Vera’s bed. Julie told Island Connections that they followed the events, “like something out of a TV serial. I’m sure I’m right in saying we all experienced practically every emotion going – sadness, fear for the cats, then relief, joy, happiness and elation and even a bit of humour. If there were more people like Vera, Maureen and Dave the world would be a better place.”

The routes for this year’s wine bus have now been finalised.

Bubbly

champagne F

irstly you have to decide what style of champagne you are looking for.

There are two different ways to make champagne, each producing a very distinctive taste. Most modern champagnes use a technique called malolactic fermentation (MLF) which was widely introduced in the 1950s to get champagnes to market more quickly. This process softens the hard malic acid in the champagne and tends to produce a heavier, less fruit driven style of champagne. In the case of Lanson champagne it is aged for a minimum of three years to allow the flavours to evolve in their own time. This means you will probably get a champagne which has a bigger fruit flavour than using the (MLF ) method. Secondly, ask what quality of grapes have been used to make the champagne. The main three grape varieties in champagne are Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. They all contribute different flavours to champagne. Chardonnay, for instance, is known for its finesse, and has a great potential for longevity. Pinot Noir provides much of the champagne’s backbone, and Pinot Meunier has flowery notes on the nose and a youthful fruitiness on the palate. The non-vintage champagnes of the leading champagne houses will have different proportions of each grape. Some champagnes are made solely from Chardonnay and others from the black grape varieties of Pinot Noir and Pinot Meunier. You also have to take into consideration how dry or sweet you like your champagne. Most champagnes are dry or Brut, however the scale can vary from very dry—Ultra Brut, to sweet Doux. Finally check how long the champagne has been aged for.

Vintage champagnes are aged longer than non-vintage champagnes. Non vintage champagnes can be released after fifteen months, whilst vintage champagnes are aged for a minimum of three years. Non vintage champagnes will usually have a fresher flavour and a higher acidity than vintage champagnes.

How is it made? Well all champagne is made using the Methode Champenoise, a very complex process which requires patience and skill. Pressing the grapes/first fermentation: Once the grapes are pressed the juice is cooled for clarification. At this point the wine maker must decide if he is going down the MLF route or sticking to the original system. Blending or assemblage: Now there are strict rules as to what can and can’t be done. Only 80 per cent of wine from a single year may be used to create champagne as 20 per cent must be held back as reserve wine for following years. However in years of exceptional harvests, wine producers will create vintage champagnes, which are made using 100 per cent of grapes from that year only. Setting off the second fermentation/bottling up the bubbles: Here the wine maker adds the liqueur de tirage, a mixture of reserve wine, sugar and yeast culture, to stimulate a second fermentation, and create all those important bubbles. Once this is added, the wine is transferred into glass bottles and sealed with metal crown caps. Storing the champagne sur lattes: In many champagne houses the second fermentation takes

place in deep, cool, chalk cellars for a minimum of 15 months. Secondary fermentation: When the secondary fermentation is complete it is time to remove the lees from the bottles. The bottles are transferred to wooden racks and then each bottle must be gradually riddled, to encourage the sediment into the neck of the bottle Maturing: Once the sediment has been left to settle, the bottle is now upside down Disgorging: This is the process by which the sediment is removed from the neck of the bottle by freezing it, when the crown cap is removed, the pressure from the champagne causes the sediment to fly out with considerable force. Dosage: This is the process of sweetening the champagne with a mixture of wine and sugar. Finishing: The bottles are now sealed with a cork and cap and

then undergo an additional resting period for the added liqueur to marry with the wine. It’s interesting to note that the cork is actually straight before it goes into the bottle. There are fifteen different sizes of champagne bottle which range from a half bottle up to a bottle which holds 40 standard size bottles. In 2009, a bottle of 1825 PerrierJouet champagne was opened and tasted by 12 of the top wine tasters in the world, it was declared drinkable and is now offically recognised as the oldest bottle of champagne in the world by the Guinness Book of Records, and there are two more left from this 1825 vintage. The most expensive bottle of champagne was a 1928 bottle of Krug, recorded in 2009 as having been sold in Hong Kong for 164,560 Hong Kong dollars.

ome of the routes include tapas or meals, others are cultural visits, take in beautiful landscapes or historic buildings, grape picking, musical groups or traditional events and still others are simple guided tastings. Morning routes start from the Avenida Colón in Puerto de la Cruz at 8.45am, picking up at the Hotel Botánico 10 minutes later and afternoon routes start at 4.45pm again with a pick up at the Hotel 10 minutes afterwards.

or routes near La Laguna, later pick ups can be organised, contact 922 639 450. The routes with a meal cost €40 and last around seven hours, those without food cost €20 and last about five hours. There are 13 to choose from and they run until December. Tickets are on sale at the Puerto de la Cruz CIT office. For fuller information on each of the itineraries, check out our website at www.islandconnections.eu.

Five star promotion

Given that it is a lot lovelier to look at a vineyard in full production with well tended vines than an abandoned farm, the island council has decided as part of its urban planning to promote the wines of Tenerife.

ith a budget of €20,976, Tenerife Rural Foundation will be promoting the wines at four and five star hotels across the island in cooperation with the administrations and various island bodegas. Wine tastings and samples will be on offer in at least 15 island hotels.

Wine tour

Drink and be driven

Buses from Santa Cruz every Saturday and Sunday have been organised so that northern wine lovers can taste the production of the vineyards of Abona.

he bus leaves from La Recova (near the theatre) in Santa Cruz at 9am and makes one stop in Poris de Abona at 11am. For a minimum charge you can visit wine cellars, enjoy tasting some of the excellent local wines accompanied by local food. The volcanic soils of this area produce 90 per cent of the ecological grapes in the Canaries and 80 per cent of the famed Malmsey variety. Depending on demand coach tours could in future be organised from the south too.

n this edition, we will consider people who have problems with their smile, which they don’t like but they don’t know why. Maybe it is an ugly tooth, one that is dark or stained, a short tooth, receding gums, but whatever the cause those affected cannot look at themselves in the mirror because they don’t like what they see.

Indiana Club

Schools out for summer! W

hat to do with the kids – or more to the point, kids, how to make sure your parents know what to do with you this summer.

So Mum and Dad, ask yourself, what do kids want to do, where do they want to go, and just how much fun can they have in one place in one day? Stupid question really. The answer is loads and loads and loads, and luckily for you parents there is now a great place where they can go, be totally and absorbingly entertained, looked after, guided and minded, have oodles of great fun, while you can go and do whatever it is grown-ups have to do when school’s out (work mostly – poor them). Indiana Club, located on Avenida de Bruselas in Playa Fañabé, is the answer to everyone’s dreams. In the short space of time that the venue has been running birthday parties it has quite simply become the place to go to celebrate for kids. Once in situ they are taken off your hands (or vice-versa depending on your point of view) by trained monitors and brought into a world of child-inspired fun and games. Signs on the doors state quite clearly, Parents Not Allowed. For parties food, soft drinks, cakes and candles are provided and the birthday girl or boy gets to write their name on the party wall with a paint-y hand print too – now how cool is that? They can also have their birthday party in the pool, play at pirates, princes, use the in-house playstations, Wii, and lots more.

1. Do you like the look of your teeth and gums? 2. Do you sometimes turn your face to your ‘good’ side when you smile, or do you ever cover your mouth with your hand when you are talking? 3. Do you find yourself looking at others who have a perfect smile and want to have the same? 4. Have you ever tried to cover your smile by closing your lips? 5. Do you take pleasure from smiling at people? 6. When you have your photo taken, do you close your lips? 7. Do you sometimes stop smiling because you think it doesn’t look good? 8. If you had a magnificent smile, how would you feel? 9. What would you like to change about your smile?

But Indiana Club is more than a birthday venue – they run a Kids Club from Mondays to Fridays, with games, sports, a supervised pool and loads of toys. On Saturdays there is a trained professional Flamenco dancer (one of the Carmen Mota troupe) giving lessons of flamenco, hip hop, modern, for kids from five year upwards, there are games, and of course all this will be happening during the World Cup, perfect for football mad parents, with a large lounge bar and big screen televisions on site too. (They could have called this place Utopia!). The staff are trained, friendly, and multi-lingual, perfect for both resident and visiting small tourists who need a break from their parents. You can also book the venue for communions, baptisms, or any kind of gathering you like, and with prices starting at just €8 you won’t find many other venues offering the same choices. Check out their summer special rates on page 35. From a resident’s point of view Indiana Club is all that a busy parent needs and more, and is the perfect break the kids need

I have devised a series of questions which readers can answer at home, and afterwards they will know whether or not they need to consult a professional. There are various ways to analyse your smile. We regularly use two techniques: an emotional analysis and an objective analysis based on the patient’s own perceptions. The following questions have been designed to help you and with the objective of finding out your real feelings about how your smile affects your image, how you think others react and how it affects the quality of your relationships with others.

after the school year. For tourists too it offers your kids the chance to escape from you in a controlled setting (they need a break too after all), where they’re mixing with children of different ages and nationalities. You know where they are and they don’t care where you are as long as you leave them alone. What more could you ask for? More information on www.indianaclub.es, or call them for information/reservations on 922 715507 or 619204113.

For the objective analysis, the best way to answer the questions is by standing in front of a mirror and smiling. 1. Are all your teeth shiny and white, or do you have some yellow, dark or stained teeth? 2. Do you have some spaces between your teeth?

3. Have you lost any teeth? 4. Do you have any which are twisted, irregular or out of line? 5. Does the line of your upper incisors follow the curve of your upper lip? 6. Do any teeth look short and fat, small or too wide? 7. Do any of the sides of your teeth look longer or shorter than others? 8. Is any tooth or group of teeth covering others? 9. Does the average line of the front of your teeth correspond with the central line of your face and your nose? 10. Do you grind your teeth or do any of your lower teeth overlap the upper row? 11. Can you see much of your gums when you smile? 12. Do you have even or uneven gums? Every problem has a solution. Nowadays, some revolutionary techniques are helping patients to have a Hollywood style smile. Good dental hygiene and a professional clean every six months together with other treatments will help to keep your teeth healthy and good looking. In reality, dental health begins with the following: 1. Correct nutrition 2. Rigorous dental hygiene 3. An exact daily quantity of fluoride 4. Regular check ups If you have inflamed or receded gums, your problem can be solved with the right periodontal treatment. New metal-free ceramics like Zirconium made by 3D machines bring a high level of satisfaction. Bone regeneration allows lost teeth to be replaced and structural bone defects to be corrected so that implants can be used. Computer guided implantology perfects the installation of implants. The combination of these three disciplines allows new smiles to be created using the latest technology. Instituto de Implantologia Dental Dr Chanut is located near the church, Calle General Franco and Calle Amalia Alayón, Tel. 649 798 747/922 788 328, and in Puerto de la Cruz in Plaza del Charco No. 11, in the Banco Popular building.

n the current financial climate it is difficult to know which way to turn with your savings.

With many bank savers’ rates at an all time low and the recent volatility in the equity markets it’s not an easy decision to make. So where do you safely put your hard earned cash to not only give it a chance against inflation, but appreciate growth also? There is one area that could be worth further thought. Australia.

the north of the country and of course you cannot forget the Great White Shark waiting offshore to gobble up any unsuspecting swimmers who stray out of their depth. Talk to any Australian and they laugh at the thought, but all the same, thankfully we don’t have to go there to invest.

Australia is one of the only countries in the developed world not to fall into recession. It has a very stringent immigration policy only allowing in those who fit the criteria. The country’s success with a growing skilled population, even during the world recession may have been stumped as the global banks dither and

With an impressive track record of growth since inception the company has an average net* growth return of between seven and nine per cent on your savings each year even during the global financial crisis of the last few years.

With a more stringent financial services authority than the UK and an Australian government capital guarantee on deposits it could be worth investing part of your portfolio until the rest of the world settles down and we get back to some sort of normality.

urchasing your home is probably one of the largest outlays you will make, but whilst you sit there in home-ownership splendour enjoying your domain, tiny, almost imperceptible insects could be undermining your investment-woodworm and termites. Woodworm are actually the larva stage of various species of wood boring beetles which drill into and eat wood. The threat that these larvae present are often underestimated but if they are allowed to eat their fill unchecked, the holes they create in the joists of your home could cause it to collapse. There are various species of woodworm, including the common furniture woodworm and the large death watch beetle larva. A look at the Seranca page on plagues (website below) will give you more information on the varieties you may encounter. If you are only facing furniture woodworm, you can treat it with non-professional products that are available from chemists or hardware specialists, but woodworm that has attacked your home should be treated by professional technicians as, if they are not controlled, the structure of your home could be dam-

aged. Many woodworm infestations can go unnoticed for years, years in which the damage they have done can be extensive and serious. It is very important to act quickly if you believe you have a woodworm problem. The other main wood threatening insects are termites. They also eat other cellulose materials. Some structures are more prone to attack by termites than others, but all homes are potential victims for their powerful jaws. Many owners insure themselves against fires or floods, but take no action at all against possible termite attack, a much more common event. Even if your home is built of brick or stone, you could have a termite problem as the supports of the structure and other components of the building are made of wood and other materials containing cellulose. In time, the damage caused by the termites can be considerable,

weakening the wood to such an extent that the structure is damaged and repairs may be expensive. Termites are social insects which live in colonies normally underground. They are ground living insects and generally get into buildings by undetected hidden conduits in the walls, floors and foundations. Although they can be a threat they are very important for the environment as they decompose material from dead plants converting it into compost. Just like any plague, termites become a problem only when they invade our living space. If you believe you may be affected, call Seranca immediately and someone will advise you on the next steps to take. With centres on all islands they can be contacted on Tenerife on 922 220000, Las Palmas de Gran Canaria on 928 139393 or check out their webpage for more details, www.seranca.com.

n today’s world the art of dental implants is about a lot more than simply replacing teeth, it’s about improving your dental health and giving you a confident smile, important for our physical as well as mental well being! Obviously it’s hugely important that your new teeth work as they should – that your ability to bite and chew is excellent, but it’s also vital that your implants add to your overall oral health and are aesthetically pleasing. The world of false teeth, the one where your grandparents took out their teeth at night, the cartoon world of the glass of water with a full mouth of pearly whites by the bed – this is past tense. Today’s top dental clinics are working to ensure that your implants don’t just look a lot better than false teeth, but feel better too, feel like your own teeth and that you feel as good as you possibly can once they

have been implanted. A tooth implant is the best solution for a missing tooth, and certainly goes a long way towards creating the right visual impression. A beaming smile is diminished if there are toothy gaps, which is where implants come into their own, recreating the smile you may have lost. There are other advantages too – cavities and decay are not an issue when it comes to your ‘new’ teeth. Dental decay and missing teeth are not simply aesthetic problems either, but affect your ability to eat properly too. When

the jawbone isn’t strong enough to hold a normal implant special implants can also be prepared. A bone transplant is another possibility to be considered in some cases. Obviously the first consideration will always be to save the existing tooth before any thought of implants, but when that’s not an option a good dentist will integrate your implants into your existing set of teeth giving you the best of both dental worlds, and with it a new lease of self confidence and more than a few reasons to smile again.

EDITION 619 :: 18/06/2010 - 02/07/2010 :: ISLAND CONNECTIONS

Gran canar ia

New Audi A8 omingo Alonso recently presented the Audi A8, D the company’s new flagship

luxury vehicle at the Teatro Pérez Galdós in Las Palmas.

A new chapter

he stunning RCZ 2+2 coupé marks the starts of a dynamic new chapter for Peugeot.

This is also the first Peugeot passenger car not to be identified by the company’s traditional numbering system which includes a zero or a double zero. It is aimed at customers who see their cars as a source of driving enjoyment as well as a mode of getting from A to B.

The top of the range features an all-new 1.6 litre THP 200hp engine which blends performance with environmental care. With reduced weight, fine-tuned aerodynamics and modern engine technology, the entry level model has CO2 emissions of only 139g/km. The other engines available are a 1.6 litre 156hp (available with a sixspeed automatic gearbox) and a 2-litre Hdi 163hp unit, all of which come with a six-speed manual gearbox. Also available soon will be RC Hybrid 4 which achieves CO2 emissions of only 95g/Km.

Some key styling features include the double bubble of the roof and the aluminium roof arches, both features of the concept car which have been retained, helping to highlight the front windscreen, black roof panel and dark-tinted rear windscreen. At the front the RCZ retains Peugeot’s characteristic feline look. The passenger compartment instantly immerses the driver in a subtly elitist atmosphere echoing the world of motor sport. There is an ergonomic driving position to suit everyone and help you to enjoy the RCZ’s high levels of roadholding. The wrap-around seats with their integral head restraints fit like a glove around the front occupants, and all the controls

are easily within the reach of the driver. High quality materials, elegant design and high-tech fascia, instrument panels and entertainment systems all enhance that luxury feel. The boot capacity is 384 litres, and additionally there are under-floor storage spaces and fold-down rear occasional seats. The RCZ is responsive and agile, a vehicle in which good looks combine with practicality. So that every customer can make their car unique, the RCZ lays great store on personalisation, to keep within the vehicle’s exclusive positioning. Options include: a real carbon roof, roof arches in different colours (black chrome, satin finish), a range of 18 and 19 inch alloy wheels in several finishes (matt black, polished black, dark grey, diamanté), black lacquered body parts at the front, carbon door mirror covers and bodywork detailing.

ISLAND CONNECTIONS :: EDITION 619 :: 18/06/2010 - 02/07/2010

By George Reed

It could be the biggest fight espite the excitement that followed last month’s crowdD pleasing fight between Floyd Mayweather and Sugar Shane Mosley which the former won clearly on points, it wasn’t the contest the fans were longing to see, which was originally supposed to be Floyd Mayweather against Manny Pacquiao, billed as The Fight of the Century.

That fell apart a few months ago after Mayweather’s camp insisted that Pacquiao took a drugs test after Mayweather’s father stated, “I think Pacquiao’s on steroids – that’s the only thing that could explain how he carried his punch through all those weight divisions.” Pacquiao won his first world title at flyweight and added title belts at five other weights through to welterweight, but Mayweather Snr’s insinuations are a bit unfounded when you take into consideration other great fights in the past when boxers developed their punching power through the weights with great success. A contest between Mayweather and Pacquiao would possibly gross over $200 million which would make it the biggest fight of all time and there’s now talk of the fight taking place in November. It would be a travesty for boxing if it didn’t happen but as money usually talks in the fight game I’m certain it will. If not we will be arguing forever about who would have won. In the meantime Manny Pacquiao has a lot on his mind, for the fighting Philippino who is idolised in his country was elected as a Congressman in the House of Representatives in the Philippine government in May of this year in a landslide victory and many believe he will one day be president of the country. Pacquiao’s personality was forged in the destitute backwater where he grew up. His father made a living for the family of six raising corn and bananas. In the Philippines that’s a sure recipe for being poor as dirt and as a young man he slept in cardboard boxes and sold doughnuts for a penny to eke out a living. Now the extraordinary level of his popularity in the Philippines outstrips that of any boxer from any other country. His standing there is so high that it’s written into Philippine law that the army will go to his aid if his family is in danger. Manny Pacquiao is now at the tail end of his boxing career but what a way to bow out of the game, if he could beat the unbeaten Mayweather, the boxer who has stated that he is better than Sugar Ray Robinson and Muhammad Ali. Now that would be some departure from the boxing game. (A fuller version of this text is available on www.islandconnections.eu)

One team agreement on

10 pin bowling league results

Fortunes in the 2009-10 LEB basketball season have rekindled interest in merging Tenerife’s two current clubs to form one stronger outfit to make a serious bid for promotion to the ACB league, which is widely acknowledged as second only to the NBA in terms of standard. Socas Canarias completed a marvellous season by reaching the semi-final stage of the play-offs but Tenerife Rural struggled throughout the year and rumours continue to grow that the club may not survive much longer due to financial problems and a dwindling fan base. The departure of coach Iván Deniz, who signed for a Mexican side rather than wait for a renewal offer from Tenerife Rural, has been interpreted in

Tuesday Singles League Week 13 The clubs are rumoured to be on the verge of merging

some quarters that both clubs are close to agreeing on a single structure for next season. However, one major problem is that the folding of Tenerife Rural would automatically mean the club would lose the registration fee (over one million euros) paid in 2002 when the club played in

the ACB and which is still held by the league in case it returns. Talks brokered by the Tenerife Cabildo, which subsidises both clubs, have already begun and are expected to be stepped up between now and mid-July when major transfer moves commence.

Basketball selection

Spain’s chances of retaining the world basketball crown have taken a major knock with the decision by star player Pau Gasol not to play in the Championship this summer. The LA Lakers centre has formally notified his national association that he wants to take a break after the gruelling season in the NBA. Gasol’s

pull-out came as no surprise given that he made it known after last year’s European Championships, which Spain also won, that he needed to rest during the off-season. “I have been playing every summer for years for the national team and I never have time to recover from injury or just give my body a break”, explained Gasol, whose brother Marc (Memphis

The place was offered to the Canarian outfit, which paid the required registration fee within the deadline. The club will again feature several English players

due to the renewal of the agreement with the English Volleyball Association to blood Olympic hopefuls in the tough Spanish league.

Arconada Dawn of a new era?

he revolution at CD Tenerife has started with the appointment of Gonzalo Arconada (currently at CD Numancia) as the new manager and he will be presented on Monday 21st June at the Heliodoro Rodriguez Stadium.

Widely considered to be one of the rising stars in Spanish football management Arconada is the brother of the Spanish international goalkeeper Luis Arconada. Followers of Northern Ireland will remember the famous piece of commentary from the World Cup 1982 of “Arconada.....Armstrong!” This is when Northern Ireland beat Spain in Valencia 0-1 and the keeper parried the ball into the path of Gerry Armstrong to score the winning goal. Gonzalo Arconada achieved success with CD Numancia in 2008 gaining promotion

CD Tenerife new manager, Gonzalo Arconada

to the first division with five weeks to spare but he will have a tough task in following in the footsteps of ex-boss Luis Oltra who is still idolised on the Island despite last months relegation. But times change and the big clear out of players

has seen half the squad leave for pastures new. In fact Tenerife currently only have 12 players on their books! The two main players Nino and Marc Bertran are thankfully still blanquiazul players but that could well change before the

pre-season starts. Goal scoring hero Nino who has just turned thirty years old notched 43 goals in his last two campaigns for CD Tenerife. The pint size striker has been offered a top contract to complete his playing days at CD Tenerife

but it is clear than he will be sold if offers of €5 million plus are made. Meanwhile the preseason is slowly taking shape. Players are expected to report back from their holidays on July 12th before travelling to La Palma for their two week boot training camp. The cool conditions usually encountered in the hills at Barlovento on the North east coast provide an excellent venue for those gruelling abdominal exercises. It must be said that the Tenerife pre-season does normally spring up many surprises. It would be great to see a Premier or Championship team take on the blanquiazules in Santa Cruz but the problem has always been the fact that the season in the UK starts three weeks before the Spanish League. Tenerife have only ever played against two British teams in the history. back in 1934 against Everton FC with Dixie Dean in their ranks and in 2001 CD Tenerife

beat Barnsley FC 4-1 in Las Americas. The format of the Spanish second division could change for next season with a play-off system being brought in. The top two will gain automatic promotion to the first division and the next four placed teams will play a semi-final before a one match final will decide the third promoted club. The official decision will be decided at a Spanish F.A. meeting on June 21st but it looks very likely that it will be accepted. The only pre-season friendly match confirmed so far will be played against Real Zaragoza on the 8th August at La Orotava on the north coast of Tenerife. The game will be the final of the Teide Trophy tournament and fan Club Armada Sur will be running a coach from the south of the Island to the game. Other news is that after 20 years Puma have terminated their involvement with CD Tenerife following a dispute between them and their sports supplier based in Alicante, Estudio 2000. The new kit manufacturer will be Luanvi with the new strips available by late August.

Soccer fun for kids after two games scoring 15 goals, making them real contenders. Tenerife Solicitors, another of the stronger teams in the league, will be looking for top spot this season also taking two wins out of two so far, and with Pueblo Torviscas yet to play their two fixtures and another new side Diamond looking strong in their opener, this season in the Championship could be a very interesting battle.

Referees needed

troops within the disciplinary lines to stand any chance at the title as they played most of the game against Exiles Bar with only six men. Taylor’s Lounge Masters are still undefeated at the halfway point but they did have a scare last week as they were pushed all the way by Big Rob’s Dreamers United FC as the game was tied at 5:5 until the last kick of the ball! Harleys Restaurant FC side still remain in contention with a remarkable season, as they try to pull off one of the most unbelievable turnarounds within

our league. Last season Gogo, Andy Senior and the boys finished in last place but this season they could be in first place! Jerome’s Spanish Style side are new to the league this season and are still taking the league by storm as they are just outside the top three and look to be getting stronger game by game. In the Championship League Cyril’s Creations have had a disastrous start to their season with a defeat in their opening two fixtures and the league has a new power house with Mike’s Pepsi FC sitting top

L.A. Veterans had a real scare in the Over 35s league this week scraping a 1:1 draw with Morfitt Rentals and had to take at least 30 minutes of continued pressure especially from Big Jason Tucker’s left foot shots but Shaine, Paul and the boys held on to salvage a point with one of the best displays of goalkeeping seen at Soccer Experience. Big Lacey was very upset as this draw deprived his L.A. Veterans team of the never achieved honour of winning every game in a season! Present Champions Ironcraft still sit in second place with a hard fought vic-

tory over Taboos who themselves are improving with every game, captain Phil has been doing well in the latest transfer market. Callum and his Exiles Bar Veterans are also climbing up the table closing in on a top three spot.

The vuvuzela Photo by Christof KoepselGetty Images

Blowing their own trumpet

Apart from the actual score lines there were a few other things on the minds of players during the opening week of the World Cup. Noisy nuisance or part of what they are? The Vuvuzela might have seemed like a bit of fun before the games started – we even had a few in the offices of Island Connections, but now that the games have started in earnest more than one player has said they are an irritant and a distraction. Certainly match reports on Spanish radio seemed to agree and some stations appeared to have the match background turned right down during commentary, and it sounded for all the world like a hornets nest was buzzing somewhere in the back of the studio. What it must be like for a player is anybody’s guess – though they probably are quite used to having to tune out of stadium noises for most of the season. According to reports, some European broadcasters wanted these noisy horns, common at South African matches, banned from the World Cup claiming the sound drowns out the commentators, with Spanish midfielder Xabi Alonso also called for a prohibition saying the horns make it hard for players to communicate and concentrate while adding nothing to the atmosphere.

Ball bearings? A

s predicted by players from many teams the official world cup ball, the Jabulani, is causing all sorts of problems, mostly, so far, for goalkeepers. The world Jubulani might mean “to celebrate” in Zulu but the ball itself has been the causes of some misery too, as no doubt England goal keeper Green would state, having been one of the very public victims of the ball’s odd bounce and roll. Other goalies who were critical of the ball pre-tournament include Spain’s top keeper Iker Casillas and the Italian’s Gianluigo Buffon who said, “it is sad that a competition such as the world championship will be played with such an inadequate ball”. Brazilian striker Robinho stat-

ed, “for sure the guy who designed this ball never played football”. But play with it they all must, and in fact not all comments have been negative – Brazil’s Kaka was positive about the ability to control it, and Germany’s Michael Ballack said it was “fantastic, the ball does exactly what I want it to”, though unfortunately he isn’t doing anything with it as he is out of the tournament due to injury.

The Goalkeeper, who had to bear the brunt of some of English tabloid’s headline writers – The Hand of Clod was one of the top efforts - after a fumble on the line saw the United States draw in their opening match.

Dying to watch

Off-pitch parables N

ot everyone has been enjoying the world-wide television coverage of the World Cup and in some cases people have gone to extraordinary lengths and taken extreme risks all the name of the beautiful game.

In Somalia for instance militants have threatened football fans with public flogging if they are caught watching the games on TV. On the first Saturday of the competition two fans were killed when a group attacked a house where people were watching a game. According to the BBC, militant

group Hizbul-Islam spokesperson Sheikh Mohamed Abdi Aros said, “we are warning all the youth of Somalia not to dare watch these World Cup matches. It is a waste of money and time and they will not benefit anything or get any experience by watching mad men jumping up and down.”

he ban is linked to a law introduced by the Islamic Courts Union who took control of much of Somalia for six months in 2006 which prohibits all forms of un-Islamic entertainment, such as watching sports in public.
