NOT FADING AWAY - National News
15-M movement shows its strength Thousands of protesters in six main columns began arriving in Madrid last Saturday after a 34-day-long march from different points in Spain to attend a mass meeting on Sunday in the Puerta del Sol where the movement was born on May 15th.

ICKHAM’S
WORLD Hot, hot, hot!
By Kym Wickham k.wickham@thenewsonline.es
Since last week’s “Bonkers” column I remembered an incident that we witnessed years ago here in Spain. I was talking to a friend about what people carry on scooters and mopeds here in Spain - you’d get nicked within 30 seconds doing it in the uK - and I was recalling an incident when we were on holiday here one november and saw going round a roundabout in Fuengirola a Vespa type scooter. On this scooter was a man driving it, followed by a child of around seven clinging to his back, followed by the ‘mujer’ who had a child in a papoose type carrier on her back. Bad enough? nah! - on the running board of the scooter was their huge Mastin type dog whose tail was dragging along the floor as the driver negotiated the roundabout and, best of all, it was raining and the only person with a helmet of any kind was the driver so, what did the ‘mujer’ do? She had her brolly up! Barking!! I attended a birthday party on Monday at Jacaranda Care Home. It has been the birthdays of four of the lady residents and three staff during July so the owners put on a great party for them with sandwiches and sausage rolls and, of course, cake Yummy. Before that though, the weekend, and especially Sunday was so hot I could hardly move and before you say “it’s yer age, dear” and while I admit it could have something to do with it, even my Spanish neighbours are complaining about the heat and the humidity seems to be increasing year on year. Phew!

New Valencia premier sworn in
Continued from FRONT PAGE
15-M movement shows its strength
Alberto Fabra (left) was sworn in on Tuesday as the fifth premier of Valencia, taking over from Francisco Camps (right) who resigned last week to fight an accusation of accepting several suits in return for political favours. Sr Camps and Valencia mayor Rita Barberá accompanied Sr Fabra to the regional parliament for the swearing in ceremony. Sr Fabra said he intended to “work hard every day to create jobs
and give the people of Valencia the best education, health service and social services”. He told Sr Camps that he “will always have the affection of the people, your party and myself”.
The former mayor of Castellon also said the Partido Popular was a “reformist and moderate party without complexes”. He added: “Our aim is to solve the problems of our citizens, not create them. We are predictable, good
managers and fulfil our commitments”. He said the “Valencia Community could feel proud of its language, its culture, its flag and its history”.
Catalonia announces cuts The Catalan regional government has decided to close at least 40 primary health care centres – or one in ten of the region's total – in a move which will leave dozens of municipalities
without health services, including doctors' visits and emergencies. Thousands will have to travel up to 25 kilometres whenever they need
medical attention. The councils affected say that the measure will not be a temporary one, given that the economic situation is forcing the regional government to make cuts.
The Workers Commissions’ spokeswoman for health matters, Carme Navarro, warned that the majority of the centres would not reopen.
Rebellion in Parliament Speaker José Bono and Industry Minister Miguel Sebastian had a spat last week about the correct form of dress for MPs in the House when the latter turned up without a tie. Sr Bono reprimanded Sr Sebastian about his lack of formality and the latter claimed it was an energysaving move – the government would not

There were no violent incidents either then or on Monday, when between 200 and 300 activists held the first Social Forum of the 15.M Movement in Madrid's Retiro Park to hammer out an alternative Constitution which they want to put to a referendum. The themes debated included international policy, the environment, education, feminism, participative democracy, the economy, culture and health. As one activist put it: "The future of the movement lies in recovering the values that the political class has lost." A surprise visitor on Monday was former World Bank president and Nobel economics laureate Joseph Stiglitz who was in Madrid to advise Alfredo Perez Rubalcaba, the Socialist Party's candidate for the next election.. Mr Stiglitz spoke to the “indignados” for 12 minutes. He wished them the best of luck and told them that bad ideas had to be replaced by good ones. He said the economic crisis has shown that the current problem capitalism has is with financial markets that are not regulated.

Zapatero 'not waiting for ETA' After his meeting with David Cameron in London on Monday, Prime Minister Jose Luis Rodriguez Zapatero told reporters that he had “very clear ideas” about anti-terrorist policies and anything else that appeared in the press was “pure science fiction”. He was referring to a report which appeared in the El Mundo newspaper that the Basque terrorist group ETA is expected to issue a communiqué in the next few days declaring it will lay down its arms and disband. Related press reports speculate that this would enable Sr Zapatero to call an immediate general election because the dissolution of the terrorist group could either
attract sufficient votes to keep the Socialist Party in power, or rob the Partido Popular of an absolute majority. ETA has been badly hit by the arrests of most of its top men and women in France or Spain in recent years but intelligence sources warn that its latest truce, declared in January this year, was a ploy to gain time and reorganise. Many
political observers believe ETA is playing cat-andmouse with the prime minister's desire to be the
man who put an end to 52 years of violence. ETA celebrates the 52nd anniversary of its
foundation in 1959 on July 30th, although it did not become active until the late 1960s.

Harsher penalties for road deaths The Attorney General's Office has announced that drivers who cause accidents resulting in the deaths of others will be charged with death by reckless homicide. It will be applied in cases of speeding over 150 kph, driving over the limit, using a mobile phone while
driving, not resting sufficiently over long distances or not respecting the safety distance between vehicles. The Attorney General considers that too many cases of deaths and injuries caused by reckless driving end in fines after agreements have been
reached with the insurance companies involved. Just days after the announcement was made, a driver in Castellon was detained after running over and killing two men aged 62 and 68 while under the influence. The man was released on bail of €6,000.
Population dropping
Telegraph makes a boo-boo Under the headline 'Mafia mobsters banned from wearing designer label clothes', The Telegraph reported on Monday that a newly-appointed prison governor in Italy called Rita Barbera has cracked down on convicted Mafia mobsters flaunting their wealth and status in prison. The photograph accompanying the story was of Rita Barberá, who has been the mayor of Valencia since 1991. What a difference the accent on the “a” makes!
There has been a drop in the population figures of just over 27,700 so far this year, as more immigrants return home, fewer arrive and more Spaniards seek work abroad. The figure would be much higher if it were not for the 300 immigrants who acquire Spanish nationality every day. Some acquire nationality easily, like the Peruvian-born novelist and Nobel prize winner Mario Vargas Llosa. Others have a much harder time and a longer wait, which is why most Moroccans intend to stay here for life once they
get their Spanish passports, according to a Ministry of Justice spokesman. He said many Latin Americans who can apply for nationality if they have a Spanish grandparent or parent do so to be able to draw social benefits in these hard economic times. Those who do not have that option are heading home in increasing numbers.
Rise in antiimmigrant feeling According to the latest report from the Observatory
of Racism and Xenophobia, four out of every ten Spaniards are in favour of expelling unemployed immigrants because “they receive more from the State than they contribute”. Just over 80 per cent said there are too many foreigners. Many believe that foreigners make up more than 21 per cent of the population when the figure is less than 12 per cent. Just over 40 per cent continue to believe that the effects of immigration are positive, 5 per cent less than in last year's report.

a coup as late as December 1981. After the coup attempt, the CIA feared the king ran the risk of assassination from two quarters – the dissident elements in the armed forces and the Basque terrorist group ETA. Formed as an anti-Franco organisation in the 1960s, it was widely expected that ETA would abandon its violent tactics after
Franco's death on November 20th 1975. But the group then revealed its true aim – an independent state consisting of the French and Spanish Basque provinces and Navarre. ETA violence peaked in 1980, when the group killed 118 people. Franco had appointed the then Prince Juan Carlos as his successor in 1969, on the understanding that he

would be an “authoritarian monarch” and continue the Franco regime. Instead, in the period known as the Transition, the king and Adolfo Suarez, the man he appointed prime minister in July 1976, dismantled the system, paving the way for the first free general election – in June 1977 – to be held in Spain since February 1936.

Recently declassified CIA documents reveal that the organisation feared King Juan Carlos's life was in danger for having opposed the attempted coup on February 23, 1981, when a group of Guardia Civil stormed Parliament and held all the MPs in the building hostage for nearly 24 hours. There had been speculation that the king had been part of the conspiracy until he came out openly against it on television in the early hours of February 24th, but the CIA documents prove that he opposed the attempted coup from the moment he heard about it.

A judge has sentenced Garikoitz Aspiazu, a former military leader of the Basque terrorist group ETA, to 377 years in jail for his involvement in the bomb attack on a mayor in 2002. Mayor Esther Cabezudo survived the assassination attempt. At the time of his arrest in France in November 2008, Aspiazu – aka Txeroki (Cherokee) – was the most wanted ETA fugitive. He was captured in a raid on an apartment in Cauterets in the French Pyrenees and returned to Spain in May. M ADRID
Prostitutes’ ads targeted The government has approved a law to ban prostitutes from advertising in all the country’s newspapers, including their online editions, to protect minors from such advertising and prevent sexual exploitation. The only exceptions will be web pages or internet publications geared for adult entertainment. The government now has to win over newspaper publishers who claim the ads are legal and protected by the constitutional right to freedom of the press. Feminist organisations support the the ban, arguing that prostitution degrades women. MADRID
Businessmen want early elections A poll of 232 companies for El Pais newspaper shows that business leaders have lost confidence in the government's economic policies and want next March’s general election brought forward. After the Socialists lost heavily to the Partido Popular in May's elections, PM José Luis Rodríguez Zapatero said he would press ahead with labour reform and drastic cuts to public spending but most businessmen believe the PP will win the next election, which would strengthen Spain's position in the international money markets.

Historic divorce law passed
Hundreds of thousands of Norwegians poured on to the streets in towns and cities across Norway on Monday to remember the victims of Friday's twin attacks by Anders Behring Breivik, many of them raising up flowers in memory of the eight people killed in the Oslo blast and 68 now known to have died on the island of Utoeya. Even as Crown Prince Haakon told 100,000 people gathered in Oslo that "tonight the streets are filled with love", there were growing doubts about whether the police are equipped to deal with the challenges of violent crime that has been increasing in a society used to leaving doors unlocked and children to play without fear. Until now, Norway's low rates of violent crime have been a point of pride for many Norwegians. Murders,
when they do occur, are front-page news. In 2009, the last date for which official statistics are available, there were 29 murders in this country of 4.6 million. In Oslo, highranking officials rarely even bother with a security detail. But last Friday's massacre has made many stop to think about a police force whose members are rarely armed. A spokeswoman for the Norwegian police union said criminals are now carrying weapons, and some people think that police officers should have
weapons as well. Gry Jorunn Holmen said it was too early to make any assessments, but the union had formed a commission to explore the issue. For the police, she said, “it’s getting tougher.” Meanwhile, in the wake of the attacks heavily armed commandos are stationed outside the gingerbread facades of government buildings and the nation is plainly on edge – experts say that some things might have to change. Norway is one of only three Western European countries lacking
a fully armed police force. Most police officers in Britain and Iceland do not carry firearms, either. Norway’s neighbor, Sweden, began requiring its officers to carry guns in 1965. The increasing presence of foreign criminal networks active in Norway is part of the reason for higher crime rates, Ms. Holmen said, though domestic criminal groups have also become more brazen. Just two days after the attacks, men in military fatigues shot a 27year-old man to death in his home in southern Norway.
UN to airlift food to Mogadishu The UN World Food Programme is to start airlifting food to Somalia, WFP head Josette Sheeran said on Monday at crisis talks on East Africa's drought. It will be the first airlift of food aid since the UN declared a famine in two areas of Somalia last week. Somali Foreign Minister Mohamed Ibrahim warned at the emergency meeting in Rome that more than 3.5 million people living in areas controlled by Islamists "may starve to
death". Al-Shabab, which has ties to al-Qaeda, controls most of Somalia and has banned the WFP from their areas, accusing it of being political. Ms Sheeran said aid would be airlifted to the capital, Mogadishu, where the weak interim government – backed by an African Union
peace force – controls only parts of the city. Tens of thousands of Somalis have been fleeing al-Shabab areas and heading to Mogadishu and into neighbouring Kenya and Ethiopia in search of food. Somalia is thought to be worst hit by the drought, but Ethiopia, Kenya and
Djibouti have also been affected. More than 10 million people in the region are thought to be at risk of starvation. Analysts say the drought has been caused by the lack of rains and the failure of governments to finance agriculture and irrigation schemes adequately.
Parliament in mainly Roman catholic malta has passed a historic law legalising divorce which now only requires the president's signature. The law was passed by 52 votes to 11 with five abstentions and one absence, months after 53% of voters backed the reform in a referendum. The law will take effect in october if – as expected – it is approved by President George Abela. Before monday's vote, malta was the only eU state without divorce legislation and couples had have to travel abroad to obtain divorces. mexico

Debt impasse leads to verbal blows US President Barack Obama and Republican House Speaker John Boehner have blamed each other for the deadlock over the federal debt crisis, as a deadline to avert a default looms. On Monday, Mr Obama went on TV to condemn the Republicans' insistence on steep budget cuts, saying that "Most Americans, regardless of political party, don't understand how we can ask a senior citizen to pay more for her Medicare before we ask corporate jet owners and oil companies to give up tax breaks that other companies don't get." Mr Boehner responded by accusing the president of seeking a "blank cheque" and insisted that the government's "spending
binge" was over. The US risks default if a deal to raise the borrowing limit is not reached by August 2nd. The federal government runs a budget deficit that topped $1.5 trillion this year, and has run up a national debt of $14.3 trillion. Congress has routinely voted to raise the debt limit in the past but this year, Republicans – buoyed by a newly elected crop of fiscal conservatives – have refused to agree to a debt increase without significant reductions in the budget deficit. The chief
sticking points in negotiations are the Republicans' resistance to raising taxes and the Democrats' desire to protect social programmes for the poor and elderly, and a public pension scheme. If the debt ceiling is not raised, the US Treasury could run out of money to pay all of its bills – which could lead to interest rate rises, threaten the US economy and in turn the global recovery.
Bolivar 'death tests' inconclusive Scientists examining the exhumed remains of South American independence hero Simon Bolivar said they have not been able to determine the cause of his death. Last year, President Hugo Chavez ordered the exhumation of Bolivar to
see if there was any evidence that he had been murdered. Most historical accounts maintain he died from tuberculosis in 1830, and the scientists found no evidence to support – or rule out – that theory. Nor did they find any proof
that he had been poisoned, as Mr Chavez believes. The president had been in Cuba for a week for chemotherapy but appeared in public on Sunday at celebrations marking the anniversary of Bolivar’s birth.

UK News Energy prices soar - again! Prices for your winter warmth in the UK are set to increase by as much as 18% as Scottish and Southern Energy companies announce that they intend to hoik their prices for electricity by 11% and gas by 18% as from September this year. This follows another increase in costs they made earlier this year. It means that the average household annual dual fuel bill will go up by £171 to £1,265 – the highest ever. Scottish and Southern justify the increase by saying that their home delivery costs over the last year have risen by 14%, their mandatory funding of schemes such as the Carbon Emissions Reduction Target has risen
by 11%, and the wholesale price of fuel has risen by 23% for electricity and 40% for gas. The next Scottish and Southern Energy rise means that 11 million people will be living in fuel poverty. If the other largest six energy groups follow suit, lobby group Consumer Focus estimate that 12 million will be pushed over the limit. The company has promised that this will be the last increase until August 2012 at the earliest. A whole year without an increase – whoop-di-do! Pensioners are already struggling – and don’t forget that there will be no more widows’ pensions starting in future, nor any
married person’s allowance – so they will be hard pressed to afford to put even one bar of their three bar electric fire on this winter. People will have to go back to open fires and gathering their own sticks at this rate – is this (pictured above) what Britain really wants for its ageing population?

The “body in the bath” case drew to its conclusion in Japan last Thursday when Tatsuya Ichihashi was sentenced to life in prison for the murder in March 2007 of the British teacher, 22-year-old Lindsay Ann Hawker from Brandon near Coventry. Her body was found in a sand filled bath on the balcony of his Ichikawa flat, just east of Tokyo, to where she had been invited after meeting him in a café to go over some points in his English lessons. After
the
killing
Ichihashi was on the run for over two years and even had plastic surgery carried out in an attempt to hide from the authorities. He was caught in November 2009 after his plastic surgeon contacted police and gave him away. Miss Hawker’s parents had travelled constantly between the UK and Japan, sometimes giving out leaflets in the street, to try and help the Japanese police catch their daughter’s murderer. After the sentencing last week her father, Bill praised them for their hard work in

tracking Ichihashi down and not giving up until they got their man saying “Lindsay loved Japan, and you have not let her down.” Judge Masaya Hotta said Ichihashi had shown no respect for Miss Hawker's life and had committed a "heinous" crime. The defendant admitted killing Miss Hawker but said that her death had been an accident, adding that he was only trying to stop her screaming as he raped her by gagging her. She died of suffocation and post-mortem results showed that she had also been strangled after she had died – the defendant said that he had tried to revive her. Her parents, Bill and Julia Hawker and her sisters Lisa and Louise were in court in Chiba to hear the verdict. The family had asked the court to show the defendant no mercy, requesting the death penalty, the maximum sentence in Japan for such a crime. Ichihashi has written a book about his life on the run and has offered any royalties from the book to the Hawkers. His offer has been rejected.

SOCA appeals for help in tracing escapees from violent prison van break-out The UK's Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) is asking holidaymakers and ex-pats on the Spanish Costas to be on the look out for two fugitives. The men, Kirk Bradley and Anthony Downes, escaped on Monday 18th July when the prison van they were travelling in was attacked by a gang armed with guns and baseball bats. At the time they were on their way from HMP Manchester to a court in Liverpool to face firearms charges. The security van driver and his passenger were taken to hospital though they are not thought to be badly hurt. The attackers escaped with the prisoners in a car. SOCA believes that because of long-standing links the men may be attempting to travel to Spain, or may even already be here. Downes is known
to be an associate of Kevin Parle, another fugitive on the Crimestoppers 'most wanted' list, who is thought to be in Spain and is wanted in connection with two murders in Liverpool. SOCA's Frank Francis said: "These are dangerous men and it is very important that nobody approaches them. We are asking people who think they may have seen them to call Crimestoppers, either in Spain or in the UK. You can do this free, and completely anonymously. Our priority is getting these two back into custody as soon as possible."
Kirk Trevor Bradley is 25 years old, 5'10", of proportionate build, with green eyes and cropped black hair. He has a Liverpool accent. Anthony Downes, also known to associates as Fat Tony, is 24 years old, 5'7" with blue eyes and short straight dark hair. Contact Crimestoppers in Spain on 900 555 111. Your call will be answered in the UK by a Crimestoppers agent. For Crimestoppers in the UK call 0800 555 111. You can also pass on information via the Crimestoppers website: www.crimestoppers-uk.org
Spanish Government offers more information in English language to property owners and purchasers English speaking property owners and purchasers are to get greater access to property information in English, under new measures announced by the Spanish authorities. Expatriate home owners and buyers are now able to request a Land Registry certificate (nota simple) in English from the Colegio de Registradores (College of Registrars). A certificate, including the translation fee, costs €29 plus IVAand can be requested from the Colegio de Registradores website https://buyingahouse.regis tradores.org. In addition, the new central government decree that came into force on 7th July introduces a range of measures that the Government says will protect property purchasers and homeowners, helping to ensure that purchasers have the necessary information in hand and preventing property problems from occurring in the future. HM Ambassador to Spain, Giles Paxman, said:
“I welcome these initiatives. Communicating essential information in English, combined with the measures announced in the decree, should help to ensure buyers are accurately informed of any legal issues connected with a property. However these measures will not, of course, do anything to help existing homeowners who have been experiencing issues with their properties. We will continue to work with the Spanish authorities to ensure these
problems are addressed.” British nationals considering buying a property in Spain or experiencing property problems are strongly urged to read the wealth of advice on the property section of the UKinSpain website, available at http://ukinspain.fco.gov.uk /en/help-for-britishnationals/living-in-spain/ property-in-spain/.

Local News Junta de Andalucia 'paralysed' The president of the Partido Popular-Andalucia, Javier Arenas, warned on Monday that the Junta de Andalucia“is paralysed”and only has enough money to pay the staff, electricity and water. He said the economic situation he will inherit if the PP wins the next regional election – as forecast – will be “much more serious” than that found in other regions. At a press conference on Monday, Sr Arenas said that despite the reduction of public sector workers' salaries last year, Andalucia was the only region in the country which continued to take on more staff. He
said the Junta had suspended all financial help to the tourism sector and for public works and “is ruining hundreds of local suppliers”.

Police get access to drivers' data A new agreement signed by Fuengirola town council and the Traffic Authority (DGT) in Madrid will give the town's local police access to the DGT's database on drivers. This will enable the police to identify
drivers and vehicles more rapidly and efficiently. Past collaboration between the council and the DGT has reduced accidents by 26 per cent despite the increase in the number of vehicles on the road.
Unions announce 'hot autumn' The General Workers Union (UGT) and the Workers Commissions (CC.OO) have announced a “hot autumn” of actions against regional and national government cuts starting on September 9th with protest actions planned until October 7th, when protest marches will be held in the eight Andalucian provincial
capitals. Union spokesmen said the workers' “cup of patience” had already run over, warning it would take ten years to recover the jobs lost in recent years. Business leaders had to realise that conflict with the workers was going cost them much more than reaching agreements with them because they would not “renounce their rights”.
Travel agencies shutting down In the past year, 292 – or 15 per cent – of the 1,942 travel agencies that were operating in Andalucia have closed their doors. Only in Catalonia and Madrid was the industry harder hit, according to a survey carried out by the 11811 telephone information company. A
spokesman said the travel sector was one of those that had been hardest hit by the economic crisis and in addition it had to face increasing competition from the Internet which more and more people were using to plan their holidays and reserve hotels and tickets.

Feria date change proposed
Police save 'botellon' girl Two local policeman saved a 21-year-old girl from drowning off the La Araña beach in Malaga where a botellon (drinking party) was being held. She was spotted floating out to sea at 3 am on Sunday morning and was already 100 metres from the shore when the police called in a maritime rescue boat. However, the nearest boat is stationed at Fuengirola so one policeman jumped into the sea to save the woman, while the other kept his flashlight on her.
The City Council’s cultural councillor, damian Canedia, has proposed holding the August feria in September as a way to extend the tourism season. But the president of Malaga’s hotel association, Aehma, said the proposal was “madness”. He said people “still had vacation money to spend in August and anyway, children go back to school in September.” The feria is celebrated in August to mark the Catholic Monarchs’ liberation of the city from the Moors on August 19th, 1487. AndAluCiA
Golf a lucrative business Junta de Andalucia figures show that golf tourism generated an income of €678 million last year, representing nearly five per cent of the province’s total income from tourism. The head of the Junta’s Tourism, Trade and Sports department, luciano Alonso, said the half a million golfers who vacation in the province every year spend on average around €140 a day. He said the number of visiting golfers had grown by 17 per cent in the last five years. CARTAMA
Bids asked for bypass The Junta de Andalucia’s public works agency has asked for bids for a road to bypass Cartama Pueblo. When the 1.4kilometre-long road is completed, traffic from Alhaurin el Grande would not have to go through the town as it does now, but would go straight to the Coin-Cartama roundabout that accesses the Malaga highway. The two towns have been demanding the bypass for years and the Junta needs an estimated €155,000 for its construction which would take 22 months to complete.

A very Happy Birthday! BIG BLUE BOX

WE BUY & SELL
ALMOST ANYTHING!
Monday this week saw special celebrations for four of Jacaranda Care Home’s residents. Jacaranda, on the outskirts of Alhaurin de la Torre has had a very busy July so far and on Monday threw a special birthday party for four special ladies. Katie Elliot and Marjorie Whittle were both 92, Irene Harrison was 90 and Mary Clarke’s 86th was on the actual day of the party. The weather was, of course sunny and most of the residents of Jacaranda were sitting under the gazebo chattering away to their guests. Irene’s son had flown over from his home on Gran Canaria and her grandson and greatgrandson arrived from the UK to spend her birthday with her – something they
still do every year even though they live so far apart normally. Three staff birthdays also come up in July and between residents and staff a total of 484 years had to be celebrated.
Drinks – alcoholic and nonalcoholic plus tea and coffee – were served and the party got underway. A lovely buffet lunch, prepared by Carol (pictured above) was enjoyed by all, with egg mayonaise, cheese and pickle, and tuna with cucumber sandwiches – all properly done in little triangles with the crusts cut off, plus sausage rolls, home-made coleslaw, samosas and different
5

flavoured crisps, and a cake stand filled with beautifully made little cup cakes. What more could you want? Martine and Iain took over Jacaranda in March of this year after Georgie’s retirement and their motto is “Whatever It Takes” to get the job done right. The caring of owners and staff alike make Jacaranda into the “home” that it is. Their passion to make sure that all their residents are cared for – and that means their physical, mental and emotional needs – is second to none. How do we know this at The News? Because the dad of one of our people stayed there while he was here for a couple of months and really did not want to go back to the UK afterwards!

The combination of a delightful setting, with attentive staff serving wine and tapas, a greatly enjoyed fashion show and an impressive selection of
quality merchandise at affordable prices ensured healthy sales of several hundred euros. Lions’ president Rosalyn Rowley also took the opportunity to present a cheque for €2,000 to ADIMI, one of the club’s nominated youth charities, for the purchase of equipment for disabled children.

A positive attitude goes a long way Isn’t it nice these days of doom and gloom to find a group of people not prepared to accept the current employment situation. Who instead of sitting back and saying “help me” are doing something to help themselves. I was asked by Centro Al Andalus three years ago to teach a group of Spanish adults business English. The course is was funded by the Junta de Andalucia for unemployed people to study and practise English in a business environment. The main course syllabus was flexible so between us we designed a course which included the usual grammar, but also a chance to speak to a “native” and learn how English people live and work. How sometimes as English people we find it hard to get used to the “hasta mañana”, relaxed attitude of the Spanish and how some days we can not think of the word for the
thingymajig that’s required under the sink. We also covered basic introductions and face to face conversations including dealing with complaints and problems. The students learnt how to make appointments and take messages, the hardest way being on the telephone. The daily routine of a working English person is also looked at and great fun is had listing the differences between us. The “no siesta” in England is received with looks of horror from the students. “One hour for lunch!” they cry. We also explore the more serious side of business, the different terms we use and our laws. This part gave students insight into our confusion over their laws and regulations – and yes we English should learn Spanish, but faced with a mountain of them it is nice to have help every now and then.
The other part of this course involves starting a business in English, hard enough in your own language but in another, quite a challenge. The students get the opportunity to design a company from scratch. This includes history, figures, profits, costs, web page, logo, graphics and future forecasts. The students then have to present their project to their classmates. Every year we have run this course I have been bowled over by the standard, the enthusiasm and professionalism of the students. This year’s group is no exception, and I felt it was necessary to write about the positive attitude these people have. They always come to class with a smile on their faces and ready to learn. At the end of the course they have a chance to have work experience within a local company. It would be great if we could have more
English companies offering places, so if you are interested in next year’s programme, please let us know. And finally thanks to all the students, who have made my job much easier and made me smile every day. Written by Lynne Roberts

Gibraltar
News Keep your eyes You couldn’t open at all times make it up! Items such as iPods and Smart Phones had been disappearing from people’s bags while they were on the Eastern Beach recently and police had advised people that they must keep an eye on their belongings and not let their guard down while sunbathing or going for a dip in the sea. Following
a
tip-off,
Anthony Fraser walked in Central Police Station on the Rock on Monday and gave himself up.
police searched the homes of two teenage boys, found one of the stolen phones and arrested them.
Illegals ask for housing on the Rock The two men who were caught trying to swim to South Mole last September have again appeared in court. The two illegal immigrants claimed to be Algerian but had no papers with them and are suspected to be Moroccan citizens. While their case is waiting for information from the Moroccan authories they say they are having to live on the streets and have demanded that Gibraltar house them until the case is resolved – a demand that was turned down by the Gibraltar authorities. They had admitted in court last year that they had tried to enter Gibraltar without the proper permit. A deportation order was given and the men were remanded in custody. While the authorities were trying to make
arrangements, they came to the conclusion that the men were not Algerian as they claimed, but were in fact Moroccan which has held up proceedings for the last ten months.
Frazer, 39-years-old and the grandson of notorious gangster “Mad” Frankie Fraser, appeared in court on Tuesday and praised the local police saying they were “great” whilst agreeing to extradition to the UK to face charges for trying to smuggle two tonnes of cannabis resin into the UK in frozen chickens. When asked about being extradited he said: “I want to go back. Yes.” There had been an international arrest warrant out on him and he had been living in Spain.

Gibraltar is still waiting for answers to their questions from Morocco. After 28 days the detention order had to be renewed and was subsequently renewed for many months until magistrates decided a few weeks ago that they should be released pending answers from Morocco and deportation.

On arrival at the Gibraltar airport, secretary of state for defence Liam Fox was greeted by chief minister Peter Caruana. The chief minister (pictured above) has declared that the signing of the bilateral 2011 Lands Deal with the Ministry of Defence will represent substantial rental and home ownership opportunities for young Gibraltarian families. As a result of the major
transfer of assets for civilian use, the local government will also get open spaces, industrial facilities, the whole of the HMS Rooke complex and many other areas. During a joint press conference with the visiting UK defence secretary at Convent Place this weekend, Mr Caruana said that the new arrangements take previous agreements "to a whole new level".

F
Q
or some time now, there has been a growing concern about the seemingly limitless powers of the regional governments – and it wasn’t just a case of opposition politicians trying to undermine the party in power in the regions. Opinion polls over the past few years have shown that about 70 per cent of the ordinary men and women in the street also want to see regional government powers curtailed. It doesn’t make sense to have 17 different education systems, which has led to a good education depending on accident of birth. Children born in the north of Spain consistently do better at school than kids in Andalucia or Extremadura, the two regions with the worst education records. Ditto the health system, with Andalucia and Extremadura at the bottom of the list here as well. Why should doctors and other health workers want to work in these two regions when they can work in other regions where the pay is often considerably better, filling the vacancies left there by the increasing number of doctors and nurses who have emigrated to other EU countries where the salaries are even better? And so it goes on.
B
ut now it looks as if something good may come out of the political tsunami resulting from the May 22nd regional and local elections and the ongoing economic crisis. Many councils changed hands after that election, usually the Socialists making way for the Partido Popular. It was a huge victory for the PP, but it had an equally huge sting in the tail. The simple truth is that the councils, with few exceptions, are bankrupt and the government in Madrid may finally be forced to do what it should have done years ago – reorganize the regional government model to eliminate the duplication of powers which has led to the ridiculous situation where Spain in fact has 18 prime ministers, 18 health ministers, and so on down the line. All the regional top officials have to enjoy the same lifestyle as their counterparts in Madrid – fancy cars, mobile phones (which they also distribute freely to their henchmen), several credit cards (the Junta’s tourism delegate to the Malaga provincial government apparently had the use of more than 40 credit cards). And who foots the bill – the Junta in Sevilla, the provincial governments (yes, every province has its own government), or the local councils? Where do they get their money from? EU subsidies, the money the government in Madrid is committed to giving the regions, and the taxpayers. And we won’t go into the murky area of the backhanders that these people have been receiving for years for one favour or another, most of which lined their own pockets.
I
’m not making up any of this – I’m merely passing on bits of information I glean from op-ed articles and news stories published in the national and
local press.
T
he situation in Andalucia has been made even worse by the fact that the Socialists have governed the region since it became “autonomous” 30 years ago, and most of the local councils have been in their hands, with a smattering governed by or in alliance with the Izquierda Unida (IU, United Left) or the Partido Andalucista. Councils, or provincial governments like Malaga, that are governed by the PP get very short shrift from the Junta, which punishes them by dragging its feet when it comes to subsidising or funding much needed infrastructure works. The other side of the coin is that when the PP was in power from 1996 to 2004, it got its own back by making life difficult for the Junta.
U
nfortunately we won’t know just how indebted Andalucia is until the regional election is held next March but I’m afraid we can expect the worst. I dare bet any money that when the full extent of the corruption in Sevilla is revealed by the PP victory which everyone is predicting, it will make the so-called Gurtel corruption case, which led to the downfall of former Valencia premier Francisco Camps last week, look like child’s play.
M
ind you, a PP victory is not an absolute cert. The government has just announced that it will start paying some 600,000 people under the age of 30 €400 a month if they enrol in training courses. The scheme is to be implemented closer to the general election in March, which will coincide with the regional election in Andalucia. And get this, the scheme will be launched in Andalucia before it goes national. How's that for a bare-faced vote buying?
U
nfortunately for the Socialists, everyone remembers similar attempts in the past – the socalled one-off “baby cheque” of €2,500 which was one of Zapatero's first pay-offs to be axed. Another was the withdrawal of the €461 to unemployed people who had run out of dole credits. The PP is going to have to make some painful cuts when they take power, as Aznar had to in 1996, when he inherited a similar economic situation from Felipe Gonzalez. (pictured)However, people know that the PP doesn't give with one hand and take away with the other, as Zapatero has done consistently since 2004.
uestion: What is the difference between Francisco Camps and Alfredo Pérez Rubalcaba? Answer: One is indicted and the other one is not. Question: Does the Partido Popular (PP) really think it can confuse Spaniards in demanding that Rubalcaba step aside as the Socialist candidate because some of his former subordinates are facing criminal charges in an alleged police leak case? Answer: Yes.
U
nfortunately, the PP once again is trying to mix apples with oranges. Following last Wednesday’s sudden resignation of Francisco Camps, the Valencia regional premier who is facing trial on a bribery charge, the PP is demanding that Rubalcaba do the same. Camps surprised everyone when he decided not to take Mariano Rajoy’s advice and plead guilty to the charge that he accepted tailor-made suits from a group of businessmen who received fat contracts with his government. The PP leader wanted Camps to avoid an embarrassing trial in the autumn that could have severe political implications for the opposition as they prepare for the general elections.
B
ut Camps didn’t want to get the dubious distinction of becoming the only sitting regional premier in recent times convicted of a crime. Always maintaining his innocence, he prefers going to trial even though it cost him his post.
knowledge about a police leak that allowed a group of ETA terrorists to escape before their arrests. Just days before Camps’ indictment, three former police officials were charged in the socalled Faisán case in which someone alerted an ETA middleman about an impending police raid in 2006. Rubalcaba, who was serving as interior minister at the time, conducted a thorough internal investigation to see who was responsible for tipping off ETA. The judge that indicted the three former police officials did not find anything to conclude that Rubalcaba or any of his top officials were involved. His name is not mentioned in any indictment nor has it come up in the investigation. But the PP is using the Faisán case against Rubalcaba.
I
t is unfortunate how organisations like the PP spend their time trying to confuse the public while there is pressing business concerning the financial state of affairs. It is fortunate, however, that most voters in Spain are keenly aware of the PP’s tricks. Politics involves deceit and confusion, and the opposition party has shown its expertise in this. Camps, his co-defendants and the three former police officials will all have their days in court. Until then, the PP must be reminded that the defendants have their constitutional rights to a fair trial, which shouldn’t be affected by overzealous statements or exuberant publicity that may affect their case.
I
t is true that Camps had been a real headache for Rajoy and the rest of the PP. The opposition leader didn’t want to demand publicly that Camps resign, but privately Rajoy wished that the problem would just go away. While lauding Camps for having the decency to step aside for the benefit of the party, Rajoy isn’t at all happy that a public trial will indeed be held in the autumn. Besides Camps, three other former Valencia officials will stand trial in the case. Even though none of the defendants hold elected office, there will no doubt be some juicy testimony concerning how business was conducted in Valencia during Camps’ past two terms in office. Rajoy had the opportunity of banning Camps from running for reelection earlier this year. But he didn’t. The 47-year-old politician won a third term by a landslide during May’s regional elections. Just weeks after celebrating his victory, the Valencia High Court indicted him and his now co-defendants in the socalled “suit gate” case that involves those dastardly businessmen who were connected to the Gürtel network.
N
ow that Camps has stepped down “for the benefit of the party,” the PP is asking Rubalcaba to take note. The opposition claims that the former deputy prime minister isn’t fit to run as the Socialist candidate because of speculation that he may have had prior

LEGION RIDERS AT FARO 2011 The great Faro 2011 Rally was on from the 14th till the 17th July and this year, being the clubs 30th Anniversary, it was always going to be bigger and louder than ever! This rally, organised by the “Moto Clube Faro”, is said to be the largest annual motorcycle meet outside the US and this year was no exception with an estimated 80,000 plus present – it was somewhat like Glastonbury with bikes and no trouble. The entrance fee of only €45 includes all your camping, a T-shirt, badges, three meals, medical facilities and beer at only €2 a pint – you can see why it’s such a popular choice. Located on church land next to Faro Airport, it’s easy to get to by air and easy to find if you are coming by road, as most people do. Entertainment is an important element of this event. It was kicked off on the 14th with “Iron Maiden” flying in from St. Petersburg on their own
private jet during their “Final Frontier” world tour. After Faro 2011 they flew off to their next gig in Madrid on Saturday 15th. The entertainment is always varied – from rock bands and folk groups to gospel singers – and this year was predominantly from the UK, Portugal and Spain headed up with the aforementioned Iron Maiden, and Hells Bells, an excellent AC/DC tribute band purported to be the best. All were thoroughly enjoyed by everyone listening from the UK, as well as Mindlock & Iris from Portugal and Mago de Oz from Spain. There were also children’s entertainers for the crèche as well as lots of local musicians including the local town band and the Orquestra do Algarve. Live music from early morning throughout the day and night and into the next morning, pretty much 24/7 and when the bands stop, the revving of the motorbikes start! If you add
Dangerous Ellis and his better half from Coin enjoy Faro 2011
to this the Custom Bike Show, Wet T-shirt Competition, Erotic Show, plus a “Bikers” market selling everything from Tshirts to tattoos you can get the feel of the rally. There was also a Custom Bike Farm with bikes from heaven plus everything else you get at these major events. To feed the needs of the attendees there were numerous bars and food stalls with the beer being dispensed from 40-foot tankers. Beer barrels were simply not big enough! As you would expect there were more motorcycles than you could shake a stick at – from Custom Trikes to
Mopeds and everything in between coming from all over Europe and with riders from as far away as Russia. Over the last three years The Royal British Legion Riders Branch in Spain has organised a dedicated RBLR camping area plus a RBLR promotion tent in the market area – the pitch being provided free by the Faro club. The first group from Spain arrived at lunchtime on the 12th after leaving Benajarafe (just east of Malaga) at 7am. They had taken the simple route going up to the A92, main motorway Granada to Seville, through Seville on to Huelva, crossing the
Portuguese border at Ayamonte and then straight down to Faro. Many thanks must go to Dennis Scrivens for providing/driving our support vehicle/trailer which carried our promotional tent and its material, a lot of bags, tents etc., for those arriving over the next few days and any equipment for the bikes we might need. When we arrived on site we first contacted Luis Braza, the Faro Club Secretary, to sort out our tented area which we had asked to be, as we had been for the last two years, near the Oasis Bar – very noisy but popular with all nationalities. It didn’t take long before we had been given our area just where we wanted and with our RBLR banner and our tents put up, we were ready to receive our members and friends. Over the next few days around 60 “Riders” and friends arrived and were accommodated in the shade. Everyone seemed to have a great time over the four days
and to end the rally there was a prize giving for the many events and the grand raffle was drawn for a trip to the USA and a Harley Davidson. For information on The Royal British Legion Riders Branch (a National Royal British Legion Branch) or Faro 2012 contact Dave Pusey on 0034 952514226 or 0034 653108415 email him at rblrinspain@gmail.com or look at their local blog; http://rblrinspain.blogspot .com/

A perfect night with Peter Peter Andre is famous for a lot of things – his marriage to Katie Price aka Jordan, his reality television appearances, being an all-round nice guy and dad of the year.
B
ut musically you have to cast your mind back to the 1990s when he was in his heyday,scoring top ten hits and albums. Now, post his very public divorce from Katie Price, Peter Andre has been investing a lot of time and energy into re-launching his career as a singer.
A
nd the man with the finely honed pecs has hit the road in a series of concert appearances which brought him to Spain last week. The singer brought his show to Marbella to the Playa del Pinillo, next to the famous Marbella arch and was greeted with rapture by a
largely female audience of all age ranges, who weren’t slow to let him know just how much they loved him. With a smattering of good natured dads, husbands and boyfriends in the audience, the scene was set for a night of emotion.
H
is UK gigs have been hugely successful and one group of three women from Portsmouth had made the trip to Marbella to see him after failing to get tickets to his sell-out concert in their home town. Peter ran through some of his biggest hits from the 1990s, as well as singing some songs from stars which he has himself loved over the years, including Stevie Wonder and The Police. He treated his fans to songs from his new
album Accelerate and ran through the big recent songs like Behind Closed Doors and Call Me A Doctor and with his warm good humour had everyone jumping up and down.
B
ut there was one song they were all there to hear and they were happy to be teased by Andre until finally he delivered the ditty that was made famous again during his appearance in I’m A Celebrity, Get Me Out of Here – the faux-reggae perfect-for-summer sound of Mysterious Girl. Arms were held aloft and the audience swayed in love and appreciation.

At Bar La Risa, Lauro Golf, starting this Friday 29th July at 9.30am, a new weekly slimming club will start called Simply Slimmer. Simply Slimmer is run by a very successful weight loss consultant called Gillian Connelly. She had an accident in 2005 which resulted in her breaking three bones in her back. Her weight rocketed due to lack of exercise and her answer to constant pain was 'comfort food'. After hearing colleagues
complaining about points/weighing/ measuring and counting calories she didn't think there was any hope. But then she discovered an entirely new way to slim –. a way that meant she could still have a social life, eat the same as her family, enjoy a few glasses of wine and still lose weight week on week. It wasn't so much a diet as a new outlook on food. Gillian joined the programme in October 2005 and hit her target weight 12 weeks later with
a weight loss of 21/2 stone. She has maintained the weight loss for almost seven years now, her back causes her no problems anymore and she's been a consultant for six years. Simply Slimmer opened its first group in Spain in February 2011. The groups have been a great success and this week a new group will open at Bar La Risa, Lauro Golf. The Simply Slimming Plan is suitable for all ages and health ranges, it is also suitable for vegetarians. It isn't so much a diet as a
Healthy Heating Plan that allows flexibility and fun whilst losing weight. A steady healthy weight loss is easily achievable whilst still enjoying the luxuries in life ie wine, chocolate, curry etc. They have also teamed up with ZUMBA Spain to help encourage members to lead a more active life and tone up whilst working towards their ultimate goal. For a no obligation chat please pop along to Bar La Risa, you may be very pleasantly surprised that slimming can be fun!!!!!

I
have always liked a good horror story, something to get the heart pumping with adrenalin and a good old fashioned fright. I like clever stories and I’m not overly keen on the ‘Slasher Genre” that seems to have dominated in recent years. I think that is why I enjoyed a Spanish horror called “The Baby’s Room” which I saw at the weekend.
MoViES to WAtcH out FoR
Bad Teacher
R
by Jake Kasdan, starring Cameron Diaz, Justin Timberlake If you fancy a bit of summer bad-ass humour to contrast with the wonderful world of wizards, and cartoon cars, and to fill the gap before the next superhero blockbuster, then Cameron Diaz’s performance in Bad Teacher should fit the bill. She plays Elizabeth, a foul mouthed, unscrupulous, couldn’tcare-less teacher who barely tolerates the kids in
her class. Elizabeth is only interested in one thing – getting out of the day job she hates and starting the life of luxury that she thinks she deserves. To that end she has identified the sugar daddy and got engaged, and all is going to plan until he dumps her and she’s back to the drawing board. Cue the entry of new teacher Scott (Timberlake) who just happens to be as cute as sixpence and, even
more luckily, the son of very wealthy parents. Elizabeth sets her cap at Scott but rather irritatingly he seems to be attracted to Amy (Lucy Punch), an enthusiastic and dedicated teacher at the school. Elizabeth decides that a boob job is the answer – bigger boobs will catch Scott and win her a future of unalloyed wealth and happiness. But for that she needs money – so she sets
out to win the cash bonus on offer for the teacher whose class performs best. Hmm, good luck with that one! In the meantime sarcastic gym teacher Russell (Jason Segal) starts to make some unwelcome advances. It’s not going to win any awards, but the politically incorrect jokes raise the laughs, and Diaz and Timberlake are on good form, along with the rest of the cast.

CERTIFICATIONS
ecently aired on BBC Four amongst a season of Spanish Cinema, The Baby’s Room (La habitación del hijo) is a 2006 film from the Director Alex de la Iglesia who also wrote the screenplay with Jorge Guerricaechevarria. The pair have produced a real cracker of a film which keeps you in suspense throughout. A clever tale of a married couple with a baby living in their new home, who one night, hear voices coming over the baby monitor. In good old fashioned horror style, once they reach the baby’s room there is nothing there. The father buys a video version of said baby monitor, and – guess what?– they see someone on the video screen captured from the camera in the baby’s room too. This, of course, sends the parents into a blind panic thinking that they have intruders in the house.
A
fter calling the police, they have alarms fitted and take all sensible security measures with locks etc but, of course, this – being a horror film – makes no difference at all. To tell you more would simply give away the best part of the plot and spoil it for you. This is one super nerve-jangly film without the bloody gore we so often see, because it is so cleverly made it doesn’t need to rely on cheap effects. A film very much in the suspense style of Hitchcock, with excellent use of creepy music that just adds to the whole experience.
I
f you love a horror, get this one. I generally dislike subtitled films as I find them hard work trying to read and subsequently missing the action, but on this occasion it was definitely worth it.
O
n the subject of horror, there is one actor that
Christopher Lee as Dracula
gave me nightmares as a kid. Whilst he is probably a really nice guy in real life, his onscreen portrayal of Count Dracula gave me many sleepless nights, waking terrors and made me sleep with the light on until I was in my mid teens. That actor is Christopher Lee. He starred in a number of highly successful Hammer Horrors in the sixties and seventies but for me the most frightening of his characters was that of Dracula. I think it was the imposing height of the man and those red eyes that did it. Christopher Lee went on to become much more than a Hammer Actor, starring in many other horrors and has had roles in Bond films, Lord of the Rings, The Wicker Man and Star Wars. He is still working today at the ripe old age of 89. In fact he reprised his role as Saruman in the forthcoming “The Hobbit : There and Back Again”, due for release December 2012.
C
hristopher Lee has been honoured by the Queen with a CBE in 2001 and knighted in 2009. He was also given the BAFTA Academy Fellowship Award in 2011 in recognition of his contribution to film. Quite rightly so I feel.
N
one of the other horror films at the time had such an effect on me as Christopher Lee’s Dracula and I was not really that bothered by Dracula films with other actors in the lead role. I remember thinking at the time that some of the so called horrors, were all “a bit pants” as they say these days. As an adult, I can often sit through films that have others hiding behind the sofa. I suppose now in my later years I am just not so easily frightened by films. Maybe Christopher Lee did me a big favour, although it didn’t feel like it at the time.

You have been travelling on a long journey wondering if there will be an end in sight. Just as it seems as though progress has been made then Uranus has moved in to tilt the balance back a notch. The thing to bear in mind is that Rome wasn’t built in a day, great things take time to manifest. Someone new may enter into your life that will help you piece together the next part of the jigsaw – you will then be able to put your best foot forward. Be ready to take the bull by the horns and take the lead. You don't need to know all the answers, but you are expected to be able to find the right ones when needed. The attention of others is being shifted towards you; everyone knows you are the one who gets things done. Venus is being blessed by Jupiter now and this energy is going to take you into areas you know little or nothing about, therefore it is important to have those around you whom you trust. Benefits are swinging your way. There is a restless desire within for something to materialise and this can make you try and force an issue this week. Rules you have made for yourself about how things should be and in what order may start to show a few kinks due to unexpected developments. What matters more than anything is keeping focused, remembering that things are happening in their own time and in their own way for a reason. Unfinished business may need taking care of. You may be blessed with talents and abilities but if you don’t do anything with them then you leave a trail of missed chances in your wake. So, Cancer, motivate yourself this week as there are many opportunities surrounding you right now, put yourself first and take care of your own wants and needs. Break free from your safety zone and follow through on your hunches and ideas – the heavens are waiting to reward you for any creative steps you take. Are you doing something for yourself or for a greater purpose, is it what another wants or is it what you want? It is time to get busy as this could prove to be the start of one of the greatest phases in your life, not everyone will be able to shine and prosper, only those that can rise above themselves – it is your time to take charge, to be specific and put your suggestions out there. Let others see your brilliance; it is all about what you can and did do. You will always be your toughest critic and because of this the universe is asking you to be kinder on yourself, get off your own back and give yourself a break. You have been held back for quite some time but now things are starting to change in a dramatic way, if they haven’t appeared yet then they are definitely coming. You will just need to roll with whatever happens and make sure the things you do are done with skill and precision.
Kym’s Kitchen ...you don’t have to be a chef!
Put on the oven? Not a chance indoors at the moment in this heat, so this is a great opportunity to bar-b-q. I don’t know what it is about men and a naked flame but tell them you want a bar-b-q and most of them want to do the cooking. The Australians reckon it’s because they can have a “tinnie” or two while they’re doing that but, I think that’s rubbish the Aussies will have a beer whether they’re cooking or not. Whatever! At least it gives the ladies a break so that can be bad, now can it “mate”! This recipe for chicken can be good because you can prepare the whole thing, seal the bag and shove it in the freezer for later use if you want too. So, if you’re stuck in front of the cooker anyway, you might as well prepare a few to freeze then you won’t have anything to do except thaw it before the guy in your life cooks it!
Bar-b-q chicken Ingredients: ● 120ml cider vinegar ● 3 tablespoons prepared coarseground mustard ● 3 cloves garlic, peeled and minced ● 1 lime, juiced ● 1/2 lemon, juiced ● 100gr brown sugar ● 1½ teaspoons salt
● ground black pepper to taste ● 6 tablespoons olive oil ● 6 skinless, boneless chicken breast halves
Directions In a large glass bowl, mix the cider vinegar, mustard, garlic, lime juice, lemon juice, brown sugar, salt, and pepper. Whisk in the olive oil. Place chicken in the mixture. Cover, and marinate 8 hours, or overnight.
Preheat your bar-b-q or electric grill for high heat. Lightly oil the grill plate. Discard the marinade and place the chicken on the prepared grill, and cook 6 to 8 minutes per side, until juices run clear.
LIBRA
Life can’t always be fun and frolics especially now as Saturn is working its way through Libra asking you to add a bit of refinement and structure to your environment.

Old desires and unfinished conversations that need to be had so the air and pathways can be cleared will rise up and you will feel like piercing straight to the heart of the matter. It is all or nothing with you and dancing round an issue is a waste of time and energy.
SAGITTARIUS There is a need to start again from a greater and stronger position and in order for you to do this you have to be willing to let go of something. There are lots of people who can talk a good story but there are few out there who can actually get things done. The key is to work hard and do it better than everybody else and to do that you need to lead by example, take the lessons nd November 22 December 21st you have learned and teach them to others.

You may want to skip some steps but there is no getting round the bridge that you have to cross this week, try as hard as you might there is no getting round whatever it is that you need to go through. No amount of detachment will prove to be able to keep you distanced from a certain feeling, which is exactly the way it needs to be. Whatever emotion is surfacing from the deep will equal all the encouragement you need to motivate you.
You are being given the vision to see what is there and available for you to build upon. This vision can’t make things happen for you but it is a guide to enable you to make things happen for yourself. You can achieve great pleasure from your efforts and actions right now. This can be a turning point in your life with gains and happiness found in expanded communication. There are things that need to be said.

WHAT A WASTE
Amy Winehouse dead At just 27-years-old the talented Ms Winehouse was found dead in her house in London last Saturday Police say that the cause of death at this stage is unknown but no-one else is thought to be involved. They will await toxicology reports after an autopsy carried out on Monday could not determine the cause of death. Amy was found by her bodyguard in her £2.5 million Camden Square house and was reported to have been dead for some six hours before her body was discovered. She was proclaimed “beyond help” by London Ambulance personnel and was pronounced dead at 3.45pm on Saturday 23rd July. Two ambulances and a paramedic on a bicycle arrived within five minutes of being called to the scene. Friends have said that she had been on a drinking binge in the days leading
up to her death.

behaviour.
Her last public appearance was just last week when she was on stage with her goddaughter Dionne Bromfield at the Roundhouse in London. She did not sing despite pleas from Dionne, but she did take the mike to ask people to buy Dionne’s album and danced next to her while she sang.
The singer's death has also sparked a clamour for her albums. Music store HMV in Ipswich reported a staggering 800 per cent rise in sales of her two albums since the singer was found dead.
In June this year, she was booed off stage during her comeback tour in Belgrade as she couldn’t sing and, indeed, could hardly stand up, seemingly not aware of where she was or what she was supposed to be doing. She cancelled the rest of her European tour following the incident.
Born Amy Jade Winehouse on 14th September 1983, her debut album, Frank was nominated for the Mercury Prize and her follow-up, Back to Black, was nominated for six Grammys and won five. However, she was unable to travel to the US to accept her awards because of her health. Back to Black, which was first released in 2006 is once again in the charts as
It has been reported that the controversial star did not take hard drugs prior to hooking up with husband Blake Fielder-Civil during the years between her two albums. Both sets of parents have blamed the other for their offspring’s drug problems. Blake’s mother said on Monday that she was worried about her son trying to commit suicide following Amy’s death. The couple have hit the tabloid headlines countless times because of their drinking and drugs habits and irrational
In an interview in 2008, her mother Janis said she would be unsurprised if her daughter died before her time. She said: 'I've known for a long time that my daughter has problems. But seeing it on screen rammed it home. I realise my daughter could be dead within the year. We're watching her kill herself, slowly. I've already come to terms with her dead. I've
Her last appearance - Amy with god-daughter Dionne last week steeled myself to ask her what ground she wants to be buried in, which cemetery. Because the drugs will get her if she stays on this road. I look at Heath Ledger and Britney. She's on their path. It's like watching a car crash - this person throwing all these gifts away.' Amy had visited her mother on Friday. Reports say that her father, Mitch Winehouse, also a musician who was in New York due to perform at the Blue Note Jazz Club on Monday when he heard the news, had already written her eulogy as he was expecting her to die at any time. But only eleven days
ago he had Tweeted: “Amy’s going to be fine.” In the meantime, he had apparently been in talks with the rehab unit, Focus 12 where Russell Brand had been, in an effort to get his daughter once more into rehab. Apparently she said “no,no,no” as in her most famous song.It had been noticed that she had started putting on weight again and it was generally thought that, this time Amy was going to make it. Sadly this wasn’t to be. Her funeral was held yesterday (Tuesday) at an unknown location but thought to be at a cemetery in North London.
e Corrs are back e Maltese Tenor Well, one of them anyway. World famous during the 90s, Irish band The Corrs were much listened to with “Runaway”, “Forever”, and “So Young” but now lead vocalist and youngest member of the family Andrea Corr, 36, has released a new album of covers entitled “Lifelines”, produced by John Reynold. It includes her own version of “State of Independence” and songs from different eras, from John Lennon to Kirsty MacColl. Singing Billie Holiday’s “I’ll be seeing you” takes courage and Andrea’s version is certainly up to standard. In an interview she said that the album is full of songs that mean something to her, that remind her of special times in her life. Andrea said that she took a break from music as she had lost her love of singing for a while and the rest of the group took time out to raise their
young families. She reinvented herself as a theatre actress, playing an acclaimed Jane Eyre at the Gate in Dublin last year, and appeared in the Olivier Award-winning Dancing at Lughnasa at the Old Vic in London the year before. She is coming up to her second wedding anniversary to Brett Desmond, a hedge-fund manager and son of the Irish billionaire Dermot Desmond, whom she married (in front of celebrity guests including Bono) at a golf club in County Clare and says she can’t wait to be a mother. Her first solo album “Ten Feet High”, produced by
Being hailed as the next Pavarotti, tenor Joseph Caleja says “There is only ever going to be one Pavarotti.”
Nellee Hooper (who has also worked with Madonna, Bono amd Gwen Steffani) was released in 2007 to much acclaim. But the single released from the album was not the hit she had hoped for. Coming from a musical Irish family, she had loved singing The Corrs’ own songs but was persuaded by her producer to do something different and doing covers of the songs she’d always enjoyed singing was a “no pressure” job.
Joseph Caleja, also known as The Maltese Tenor, performed Verdi’s Requiem at the Royal Albert Hall in London’s Proms last week. He said that had been a dream come true as he had been spellbound by the film “The Man Who Knew Too Much” when he was a child of seven. The film climaxes with a clash of cymbols at the Royal Albert Hall and ever since it had been one of his ambitions to sing there. He added that, as a performer you are so close to the audience that it is wonderful to see the expressions on their faces and that, if you’re doing well, you can see the people nodding their approval! It had been a “very emotional and inspirational performance” for him. Asked if he thought that opera is going in the right direction he said that:
“Opera should be for everyone. It has to move with the times and is not something that’s just for the elite anymore.” He approved of the performances being shown in cinemas across the world, sometimes in 3D. When he was a boy of thirteen or fourteen, he had watched the Mario Lanza film “The Great Caruso”. In the film Lanza is seen singing holding a glass of red wine so the next time he had to go to choir practice he had worked out that red wine was obviously good for your throat. He poured some into a plastic water bottle and went along to the practice, explaining to the priest when asked what he thought he was doing, that he had seen it in the film. The priest was not convinced!

Optimists less prone to strokes
Menaces that lurk in water
A positive outlook on life may cut a person's risk of having a stroke, according to a new study by researchers at the University of Michigan.
Swimming is one of the most popular sports activities and is replete with health benefits. It improves both mental and physical well-being, and is ideal for people with chronic ailments like arthritis, fibromyalgia, anxiety disorders and physical disabilities – as well as providing pregnant women with temporary relief from gravity. But swimming in rivers, lakes, pools or the ocean can lead to what the health experts call “recreational water illnesses,” infections or irritations caused by germs or chemicals contaminating the water. These unseen pollutants can cause ailments of the ears, eyes, skin, nervous system, gastrointestinal and respiratory tracts, and any cut or scratch you may have. Recreational water illnesses are on the rise and last year more than 90 per cent of the cases registered in the US resulted from swimming in treated water — pools and the like that were supposed to be sanitized. The usual culprit was a bacterium called Cryptosporidium, which is resistant to chlorine. However, there are preventive measures swimmers can take. The most common problem is diarrhoea from swallowing water contaminated with germ-laden faeces. Just one swimmer who has diarrhoea can contaminate the water in a large pool or water park. Natural waters are contaminated with faecal and other germs by sewage overflow, storm water run-off, boating wastes and septic systems that malfunction. It is a myth that seawater quickly kills pathogens; coastal waters in particular are rich in nutrients that enable bacteria to survive despite the salt. Viruses
can be even worse because they live longer than bacteria in salt water. Protection starts with a shower before entering a pool – not just a superficial rinse but a full-body soak with special attention to germ-laden body parts. People with a diarrhoeal illness should respect fellow swimmers and stay out of the water. That also applies to ill babies. Check that pool water is tested regularly for proper chemical balance. But even a wellmaintained swim site can result in inflammation of the ears and eyes. So-called swimmer’s ear (acute otitis externa) results in pain, tenderness, redness and swelling of the external ear canal, usually caused by a bacterial infection in the outer ear canal. The primary culprit is residual moisture, and the best preventive is to keep the ear canals dry with earplugs or a tight-fitting cap. After swimming, tilt your ear first to one side then the other, shake out
any water, then dry your thoroughly with a towel. To protect eyes wear goggles that fit snugly and are your own. Borrowed goggles could be contaminated with germs that cause conjunctivitis. In addition to polluting microbes, ocean waters sometimes have freeswimming organisms that cause swimmer’s itch, as well as the stinging cells of jellyfish. Swimmer’s itch, or cercarial dermatitis, is a rash caused by an allergic reaction to microscopic parasites of birds and mammals that are released into both fresh water and salt water by snails, their intermediate hosts.
Avoid swimming in areas where snails are common or where signs have been posted warning of this problem or the presence of jellyfish. To counter the effects of swimmer’s itch, use a corticosteroid or anti-itch cream, and bathe in Epsom salts or baking soda. If stung by jellyfish, dab the skin with vinegar to neutralize the toxin and relieve the pain. People allergic to bee stings should be especially careful to stay out of waters containing jellyfish. If you are allergic to one, you may well be allergic to the other.

They asked more than 6,000 men and women aged 50 and over – none of whom had ever had a stroke – to rate how optimistic they felt on a 16 point scale. The volunteers were then tracked for two years, during which time 88 of them suffered a stroke, some of them fatally. The researchers then compared both sets of data and found that every point increase on the optimism scale corresponded to a nine per cent reduction in acute stroke risk over the two years, even after adjusting for factors such as chronic illness, other reported health problems and social and lifestyle factors which may affect stroke risk.

healthy diet and exercising, adding that there is evidence which suggests that positive thinking might have a biological effect too, such as boosting the immune system. Stroke is the third most common cause of death after heart disease and all cancers, and a leading cause of disability. A spokesman for the UK's Stroke Association said it had long been believed that positive thinking can improve recovery after a stroke, so it was interesting to find out that it could also reduce the risk of having a stroke in the first place: "There are many cynics amongst us, but it seems that helping people to make the most of life and viewing your glass as half full could go a long way to improving our overall health and wellbeing.”

Joan Turner I read on the internet recently about the the Guardia Civil who were stopping cars on the Javea to Gata road and fining the drivers up to 150 euros for driving in flip flops. Apart from the obvious
by email safety worry of them falling off your feet while driving, the traffic laws states that you must wear full shoes when driving. This means any shoe without a back can be against the law,
Frank de la Pierre I read with interest your piece about driving shoes recently and, although somewhere in my very deep and distant memory I seem to remember something about shoes being part of driving law, it hadn’t occurred to me that my beloved flip-flops were illegal. Like many others in Spain at this time of year, I virtually live
Following on from the letters from Harold Rice, I am writing to tell you that some of us in the area of La Carreta in Coin have now been without town water (for which we pay) for five weeks. Some people in the area have been reconnected and are now supplying us, via their supply as much as they can but people who have wells on their premises have
Maybe a pair of driving shoes should be kept in the car throughout the summer!!
So, what to do about it? I suppose I’ll have to keep ‘driving’ shoes in the car from now on but, what a pain - and when my wife drives I can expect a real palaver about
having to change out of her nice dressed-up shoes into some crummy pair of flatties - and what if people see her in them when we get wherever we’re going? Methinks life is going to be hard for a little while but, I suppose we are lucky to be living in a place where flip-flops have been de rigueur for nine months of the year anyway.

found that these have run dry too. A petition was arranged by our Spanish neighbours, which we signed and they duly took it into Coin Town Hall but, has anything happened or have they told us when we are likely to be reconnected? Absolutely not! All they will say is that the tanker, that I understand your editor saw going along

La Carreta Residents
not just flip flops. And just think how many pairs of full shoes you can buy with 150 euros.
the road towards the ‘semillas’ plant last week, is still broken with no sign of a date for it to be fixed and they cannot even supply us with a tanker of water. They told us it was up to us to pay for a delivery from a private contractor but, the last time one of us did that it turned out that they had taken it from the acequia drain and charged us a fortune for what is unfit water. This is an intolerable situation and the new Mayor should be ashamed of himself for not doing something about it. We all know that, from time to time and for one reason or another, pipes break and have to be fixed but, FIVE WEEKS? This is a joke and not a funny one for those of us who have animals as well.

C
hirpy Chirpy Cheep Cheep was at number 1, the last episode of the Beverley Hillbillies was being shown on TV, I was 12 and had just started my school summer holidays and Apollo 15 was on its way to the Moon.
T
he crew consisted of Commander Dave Scott, Lunar Module pilot James Irwin and Command Module pilot Alfred Worden. Later in 2000 Dave Scott became engaged to British Television News reader Anna Ford.
A
pollo 15 was to be the fourth Moon landing. NASA had been forced to cut its Moon landing missions down from 21 to just 17 so the pressure was on to move on more quickly than had been planned. On this mission the astronauts would spend three days on the Moon with 19 hours spent outside the Lunar Module exploring the lunar surface. To help them travel further afield it was necessary to have some transport so being Americans they had a really expensive car called the Lunar Rover Vehicle (LRV).
O
n arrival at the Moon, Worden would remain in orbit alone while Scott and Irwin made the descent to the Moon’s surface in the Lunar Module. Unlike Apollo 11, 12 and 14 which had landed on relatively smooth areas in the Lunar ‘seas’ Apollo 15 was headed for an area in the Moon’s mountainous region known as Hadley Rile. Four days after launch Apollo 15 landed safely on the Moon on July 30th 1971.
T
he LRV had been stowed in a compartment in the Lunar Module that was not much larger than a chest of drawers, by amazing engineering the whole car had been folded up and with a tug on a simple rope it unfurled like a flower opening. The LRV was big enough for two fully- suited astronauts to ride on as well as carrying all their equipment. It was powered by two 36Volt batteries that operated the four motors that drove each wheel. It had a top speed of 8 mph and a range of about 57 miles although it was never driven further than the astronauts could walk back in case it broke down. Only three Rovers were ever built for Apollo 15, 16 and 17 at a cost of $38 million without doubt making it the most expensive car in history!
A
colour TV camera mounted on the front of the Rover could be remotely operated from Earth. This allowed far better television coverage than in the earlier missions. On each mission, at the conclusion of the astronauts' stay on the surface, the commander drove the LRV to a position away from the Lunar Module so that the camera could show the lift off . But because of the time delay from the Moon to the Earth and back again to the camera the operator in Mission Control had difficulty in keeping the LM ascent stage in frame throughout the launch. On the third and final attempt (Apollo 17), the launch and ascent were successfully tracked.
S
tanding in front of the remote camera Dave Scott performed his famous hammer and feather experiment. By dropping a hammer and a feather at the same time in an airless atmosphere on the Moon, both hit the ground at exactly the same time. The astronauts also left behind a reflector, still used today by scientists on Earth who fire a laser beam at it to measure the Moon’s distance from Earth, hoax conspirators take note!
S
cott and Irwin collected a total of 170lbs of Moon rock during their three Moon walks while Al Worden orbiting above continued to map the Lunar surface and take high resolution photographs. This film had to be retrieved from the rear of the Service Module during a space walk while on their way back to Earth.
T
he mission ended on August 7th when the capsule ‘Endeavour’ splashed down in the Pacific Ocean 12 days after leaving Earth. And Maggie May was now number 1! For more info go to www.kencampbell.info

Flying car is declared legal at last For the price of a Ferrari , 200,000$, and a modest deposit of just 10,000$ the flying car has at last been declared officially road legal. It means the Terrafugia Transition could be in U.S. garages as early as next autumn, after two years of delays. It may not be the world's first flying car, but its makers say it is the first to have wings that fold up automatically at the push of a button. Drivers can convert it from a twoseater road car to a plane in less than 30 seconds with the touch of a button.
Hamilton burns it up Read moredelays.html#ixzz1T7kIOn2Z
McLaren's Lewis Hamilton won a thrilling German Grand Prix with a commanding drive at an unseasonally chilly Nurburgring to move up to third in the championship.
Lewis shows his joy on the podium
Hamilton had earned his second spot on the grid due to a flying qualifying lap
on Saturday, and one which he said was one of his best ever. So a second victory of the season – and his 16th career victory – leaves Hamilton 82 points behind Vettel with nine races left to go. Hamilton celebrated on his pit-to-car radio: "Great job guys, great job. Keep pushing, these are the results we can get, it's amazing." The first round of stops saw Webber make a more decisive move as he pitted first on lap 14 and while Hamilton, Alonso and Vettel jostled for position coming out of the pit lane two laps later Webber
continued racing into the lead. An intense battle followed with less than two seconds covering Webber, Hamilton and Alonso. But Vettel, who had spun on the damp track, fell away from the leading pack. The second stop for new soft tyres saw another dramatic switch of position with Webber again pitting first followed on the next two laps by Hamilton and Alonso. Hamilton moved into the lead, slightly nudging Webber out of the way as the Australian tried to defend his lead, but Alonso moved in front on his way out of the pit lane. The Spaniard's lead did
not last long as Hamilton drove around the Ferrari on the outside (the exact move that Webber had tried on Hamilton) to move back into first position. "Hamilton is incredible," commented F1 BBC co-commentator David Coulthard. "He's in permanent attack mode and there's no love lost between him and Alonso either." Massa led Vettel for quite a long stint but both drivers needed one final stop to use the prime hard tyre, both teams tried to outwit the other with misleading pit stop orders, meaning both racers had to stop on the penultimate lap and Red Bull won the pit race giving Vettel an important fourth place finish.
Stunning Stoner wins at Laguna Casey Stoner reasserted his authority on the 2011 MotoGP World Championship with a thrilling victory in Sunday's US Grand Prix at Laguna Seca. At a track where he suffered a bitter defeat at the hands of Valentino Rossi in 2008, Stoner spent the early laps behind Repsol Honda team-mate Dani Pedrosa as pole sitter Jorge Lorenzo led the way. The trio of former Laguna winners pulled quickly away from the rest of the field, with Stoner taking second from
Pedrosa shortly after the halfway stage, with a neat pass on entry to the Corkscrew. Stoner was soon locked on to Lorenzo's rear wheel and made his victory pass in style, riding around the outside of Yamaha's reigning world champion during the flat-out run up and over Turn One, on lap
26 of 32. Thereafter Stoner quickly pulled a safe advantage and the delighted Australian took his fifth win of the season by 5.634sec at the chequered flag. Having lost points to nearest title rival Lorenzo at the last two rounds, Stoner now heads for the summer break having built his title lead back up to 20 points. Lorenzo's team-mate Ben Spies got boxed-in at the start and saw any hopes of a home podium end when he was stuck behind Valentino Rossi for the first three laps. Having finally passed the Ducati rider, Spies inherited fifth when Marco Simoncelli crashed out – the fourth time this season – then caught and passed Repsol Honda's Andrea Dovizioso for fourth place in the closing stages.

David Adams ready to set off with Kia Sportage
e Big Cricket Ride Kia Motors are helping expro cricketers Chris and David Adams to get on their bikes as they set off to cycle to every first-class cricket ground to help beat Leukaemia and Lymphoma. As sponsors of Surrey County Cricket Club and the Kia Oval, the company was only too happy to provide Chris – the county’s cricket manager – and his brother with two new Sportages as support vehicles for their 868 mile challenge as they visit 18 grounds in 15 days during October. Chris and David, who are both nicknamed Grizzly, will be starting the Big Cricket Ride at Durham County Cricket Club and finishing at the Kia Oval and are inviting celebrities, sponsors and cricketers to join them on various days of their tour. The Big
Cricket Ride is raising money in aid of Leukaemia and Lymphoma Research, and the brothers’ motivation is personal. Chris and David’s father John, was sadly diagnosed with Peripheral T Cell lymphoma attached to the liver last year and is currently undergoing treatment. Peripheral T cell lymphomas are a group of rare lymphomas that affect the T-cells found in the peripheral circulating blood. Chris Adams played first class cricket for Derbyshire from 1988 to 1997. Since then he joined Sussex as captain and captained them to the 2003, 2006 and 2007 County Championship title. Chris had a brief career for England between 1998 and 2000 and is now cricket manager at Surrey County Cricket Club based at The Kia Oval.

Hamilton passed Mark Webber's Red Bull in the run to the first corner to take the lead and held off an eager Fernando Alonso round the next curve to gradually ease away from the pack. A below par drive saw Red Bull's Sebastian Vettel finish fourth but his championship lead remains 77 points. Jenson Button was retired by his team due to hydraulic problems, his second non finish in a row.

e Senior British Open goes over the pond again American Russ Cochran won the Senior’s British Open by two shots on Sunday, holding off the challenge of fellow Americans Mark Calcavecchia and the fastfinishing Tom Watson to capture his first major title. The 52-year-old Cochran claimed the winner's check of €216,101 after making six birdies in a nerveless 5under 67 in his final round at Walton Heath, finishing at 12 under par. The left-hander picked up all his shots in the first 10 holes, opening up a five-shot lead. He remained unruffled in the testing closing stretch despite a bogey on No. 14 that cut his advantage to two shots. It was Cochran's third victory on the Champions Tour but his first this season. His son, Reed, was carrying
his bag. "To do it in a major and on this golf course means so much. And to do it with the kids here, it's even
better." Cochran's elder son, Ryan, was also caddying this week for Mike Goodes. Calcavecchia had shared the overnight lead with Cochran and South Africa's David Frost, but finished runner-up and was left to
regret four-putting from 15 feet on the par-3 No. 9 for a double-bogey. Looking for a record fourth success at the
Senior British Open, Watson was tied for third with compatriot Corey Pavin (69) at 9 under after shooting a vintage 67. The first home for England was Berkshire’s Barry Lane who made 70 to
finish fifth at 8 under par. With only one victory to his name at the 1991 Centel Western Open when he overhauled Greg Norman in the final round, Cochran has blossomed in his three seasons on the senior circuit. He won two tournaments in a three-week span in September last year and has played himself into regular contention at the majors, finishing third at the Senior U.S. Open in 2009 for a key breakthrough and a cheque for €122,098. That qualified him for the Tour's highprofile events and he tied for third at last year's Senior British Open at Carnoustie. "That's the beauty of the senior tour. You can have these guys that come out and shine," Watson said.
Cavendish gets his jersey at last Britain’s Mark Cavendish won for the third time on the Champs Elysees to secure the first green jersey by a British rider as points winner on the Tour. Cavendish, ‘The Manx Missile’ who has now won 20 stages of the race in his career, crossed the line first after a frenetic sprint finish on the Champs-Elysees. "I've been trying to get the green jersey for the last few years, it is a special day," said the 26-year-old. However, despite the relatively comfortable final margin of victory Cavendish was not assured of securing the green jersey until he won the final sprint. If Rojas had won the stage then Cavendish would have needed to finish second or third to claim the jersey he so highly coveted. "I've been incredibly lucky to have a group of team-mates who have been committed to me winning races and it has paid off," said the HTC Highroad cyclist. "I can't stress how lucky I am, I couldn't do it alone. I'm super emotional, super happy." Cadel Evans took the yellow jersey to become Australia's first Tour winner in this historic race. France finally scored a stage win in this Tour as Europcar’s young Pierre Rolland won atop l’Alpe d’Huez on Friday in the final alpine stage, grabbing the white jersey for best young

rider on the day his teammate Thomas Voeckler finally gave up the yellow jersey, but not without giving it his absolute all. A day after cracking on the final climb and publicly ceding any chance of winning the 2011 Tour de France, Alberto Contador went on the attack early on Friday, putting distance between himself and Cadel Evans, after the Aussie stopped twice only to finally change bikes and start to chase. Evans, so often without help had to chase over the Telegraph and the Galibier and down the long descent and valley leading to the Tour’s final climb, the Alpe d’Huez. With some help from Garmin’s Ryder Hesjedal, Evans finally rejoined the Schleck-Contador group 15km from the base of the Alpe. After Evans made contact, the pace of the front group slowed and yellow jersey Voeckler and others rejoined so that a group of
about 30 riders hit the Alpe together. Contador’s bid for a stage win finally faded on the Alpe, where he finished third and only gained a handful of seconds on Evans and Andy Schleck, who took over the jersey from Voeckler and
Sunday’s parade to Paris as Tony Martin (HTCHighroad) and team-mate of Cavendish won stage 20 of the 2011 Tour de France. Evans began the day 57 seconds down on race leader Andy Schleck (Leopard-Trek), but by the end of the 42.5km individual time trial in Grenoble, Evans had a lead of 1min and 34 secs over Schleck. At the first time check the yellow jersey had already conceded 36 seconds of that advantage to the Australian, and at the finish he had surrendered even more — Andy Schleck finally hit the line two and a half minutes slower than the new race leader.

“I can’t quite believe I’ve done it,” said Evans, Asked how it would feel to wear the maillot jaune into Paris, he said ,“I hope the sun’s out.” Martin likewise was elated after his winning performance on the day.
Usain Bolt just does enough to hold off Carter
Handbags at Monaco meeting Two French athletes traded blows and insults after the 1500 metres at the Diamond League meeting in Monaco. After finishing in ninth and 11th respectively, Mehdi Baala and Mahiedine MekhissiBenabbad exchanged insults before a fight ensued, with Baala at one stage attempting to headbutt his rival. Commentating for BBC Sport, Steve Cram said: "I don't think I've ever seen that in an athletics meeting. "When you see things like that happen, I've seen the police get involved." Baala and MekhissiBenabbad have had a strained relationship for some time, with former World, Commonwealth and European 1,500m
champion Cram explaining: "Baala trains with steeplechaser Bouabdellah Tahri, and Tahri and Mekhissi do not get along. Later, a contrite Baala said: "At such an event, in front of a full stadium, it's a shame to give a bad image of athletics. "We've just given athletics a bad name and a bad representation of North Africans. At the same meeting Usain Bolt had to clock his fastest 100m of 2011 to take the Monaco Diamond league 100m in 9.88 seconds. After a shaky start Bolt recovered to beat fellow Jamaican Nesta Carter (9.90) who led for much of the race. Bolt's time was the fastest in the world this year.

Harry Wiltshire gets six-month ban
England’s cricketers have ignited what could be an epic series with this win, India will react, of that there is no doubt. James Anderson took 5-65 as England stormed to a 196-run victory over India on the final afternoon of a thrilling opening Test at Lord's. Needing nine wickets to win, England made the perfect start, removing three batsmen in the morning session, and taking the key wicket of Sachin Tendulkar after lunch. With Suresh Raina (78) offering stubborn resistance, India battled through to tea with five wickets intact, but Chris Tremlett removed captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni and the tourists' tailenders offered little resistance. With Lord's packed to bursting and cheering every ball, Stuart Broad took the last Indian wicket, sparking jubilation among the England players as they

number one side in the Test rankings but England will replace them if they can win the series by a two-match margin. With all four results still possible at Lord's, fans queued up outside the ground from as early as 2.00am to get their hands on a ticket for the final day's action. By 9.30am, 90 minutes before the start of play, hopefuls arriving at St John's Wood Underground station were being turned away, while the ground was beginning to fill with those lucky enough to get a seat. England will take enormous satisfaction from their victory, having been put in to bat under heavy clouds on the first day. They achieved an imposing first innings total of 474-8 declared – thanks mainly to man-of-the-match Kevin Pietersen's 202 not out – bowled India out for 286, and recovered from a second innings wobble to set them a record target. Then, on a riveting final day, all four frontline bowlers played their part in seeing them to a memorable triumph.

Britain's Harry Wiltshire has been suspended for six months by the International Triathlon Union (ITU) for unsportsmanlike conduct. Wiltshire was disqualified from last month's European Championships in Spain for impeding world champion Javier Gomez during the swimming leg. The race was won by Britain's Alistair Brownlee with Gomez eventually finishing 40th . The ITU suspension has been backdated to 26th June. It prohibits Wiltshire, who is currently ranked 68th in the world, from taking part in ITU competitions or competitions sanctioned by national federations affiliated to the ITU. Gomez tweeted after the race: "Disappointed with what Harry Wiltshire did in the swim, hope ITU penalises him hard. Everyone saw it, it's pretty sad, poor boy."

World Swimming Championships in Shanghai Rebecca Adlington produced a strong finish to win silver in the women's 400m freestyle final, but the double Olympic champion is still yet to climb to the top of the podium at a World Championships. Italian Federica Pellegrini, who took the gold medal in Rome in 2009, defended her title with Camille Muffat in third. Meanwhile Illness has wrecked Gemma Spofforth's hopes of defending her 100m backstroke title at the World Championships in Shanghai. The 23-year-old failed to reach the semifinals, finishing 23rd fastest in the heats. Britain's hopes in the event now lie with Lizzie Simmonds, who made it through to the final.
