PUBLISHER’S NOTE It has always been my priority to offer the best possible service to our advertisers by providing as good a service as possible while giving readers something new to look at every month.

I started with the website www.webexpressguide.com and when I discovered that it needed something more for readers and consumers to be aware of it, I decided to print parts of the website as a small, portable magazine to be distributed free. Sixteen years ago we were the first ever internet Portal to offer the additional printed version, I believe we still are while everyone else with printed productions copied the idea with their websites. Not quite the same thing, I believe.

We have always been innovative and pioneers in our line of business this is why we have over half a million unique visitors to our pages, this is why most of our advertisers appear on first page of Google searches (by trade), this is why our printed magazine is collected by readers at super speed leaving behind so many others, this is why readers download an additional 2500 copies of the virtual magazine each month.

Audio-visuals are very important to communication these days and our website provides a whole internet page for each advertiser with photos, banners and even sound when required, however technology moves on and we are now in the process of adding www.ExpressGuideTv.com to our service.

This added service gives advertisers the option to to include professionally made video commercials to their descriptions, while users have an opportunity to see more clearly what is on offer, watch longer advertorials and even informative, educational, entertaining, non-commercially related videos.

As we have said before we are in the process of restructuring our web pages to be compatible with any size screen from mobile to television size, we are nearly there and while doing so we are adding this additional feature.

Make www.webexpressguide.com your home page, make good use of it, we are here to please users, readers and advertisers and any constructive comments sent to us to improve the service will be more than welcome.

editor page September, end of summer, back to school; although this summer was unusually hot and rather crowded, I think it may have shown the world that the Costa del Sol is after all one of the best options available for a holiday or indeed even a new home. The increase of French, German, Italian and even other nationals seems to have compensated to some extent for the reduction of English residents and Russian visitors. Hopefully we shall soon return to business the whole year round and not just in summer.

Septiembre, finales de verano y vuelta al colegio; aunque este verano fue inusualmente caliente y bastante lleno de gente, creo que se podría haber demostrado al mundo, que la Costa del Sol es, después de todo, una de las mejores opciones para las vacaciones o de hecho incluso un nuevo hogar. El aumento de franceses, alemanes, italianos e incluso otros nacionalidades parece haber compensado en cierta medida por la reducción de los residentes ingleses y visitantes rusos. Esperemos no tardar en volver a abrir los negocios durante todo el año y no sólo en verano.

Сентябрь, конец лета, пора обратно в школу. Хотя это лето было необычайно жаркое и сюда приехало много людей, я думаю это показатель, что Коста дель Соль один из лучших вариантов для отдыха и даже для покупки нового дома. Увеличение количества французских, немецких, итальянских граждан и других национальностей похоже компенсируется снижением британских и русских туристов. Но я надеюсь, мы скоро вернемся к обычной работе круглый год, а не только в летний сезон.

Eating spicy food has been linked to living a longer life. A study analysed the food habits and health details of nearly half a million Chinese people. It found those who ate spicy food six or seven days a week had a 14% reduced risk of dying compared with people who ate it less than once a week. Eating spicy food was also associated with a lower risk of death from cancer, heart diseases and respiratory illnesses.

Britons are spending an hour and 54 minutes accessing the Internet on their mobiles every day – compared to just an hour and nine minutes on PCs.

TRIPADVISOR IS A DISGRACE Italy fines TripAdvisor €500,000 (£392,000 / US$600,000) over false reviews – It is very clear that TripAdvisor has no way of detecting fake reviews and / or damaging lies.

Yet again TripAdvisor shows it has ZERO ways to safeguard the listings that are “Forced” onto their site, but is completely open to devastating abuse against establishment owners.

El Castillo restaurant in Benahavís is NOT CLOSED despite what Tripadvisor states on its useless and often defamatory information pages.

Trying to put this right has been impossible unless one send an email disclosing one’s own information or using your Google or Facebook account allowing them to obtain details of all your contacts.

If eventually you find a phone number you then discover how uninterested they really are in correcting their business destroying information and just simply ignore your request to correct.

Search for Italian restaurants in Benahavís.

You know what? Tripadvisor shows there are 3, a complete lie. They are restaurants all right but far from Italian. This is pure deception.

Have a look at http://tripadvisor-warning. com/share/tripadvisor-hopes-we-are-allidiots-including-you . It is a very interesting website where you find comments like the following:

10

www.webexpressguide.com

YES I did agree to your Terms and Conditions, and YES I did know there was a non refundable ONE Night fee in your cancelation policy, however I only booked 12 hours ago, I now need to cancel.. If you don’t give me a FULL refund, I will post horrible REVIEWS on TripAdvisor, and will have my friends & family do the same…

TripAdvisor Warning: We are a small group of 9 people that are tired of the way TripAdvisor chooses to conduct their business, mainly because of the total lack of consideration towards “owners” in the hospitality world. We are based in the USA, Europe and New Zealand.

TripAdvisor hopes we are all idiots including YOU. And lots, lots more, check it out. The moral of the story is that Tripadvosr is a fake, they could not careless if their information is false or damaging as long as they make their own money at the expense of everyone else.

If you are a restaurant, do not be so proud to promote what they say about you, it may be false, who would believe it?. If you are a consumer do you really want to be mislaid by biased and even unqualified opinions?

IN MY OPINION

Is this the end of Europe as we know it?

The stupidity of mankind is remarkably unique and leading to self destruction.

12

www.webexpressguide.com

In my opinion

Let’s look at one of the clearest examples. It took some 500 years for the Roman Empire to become the greatest world superpower so much so that in our modern civilisation most countries recognised and adopted their democratic political system (Senatus Populusque Romanus) even most of today’s legislation has been modelled on Roman Law. So what happened?

The decline and final disintegration is due to some very clear events that seem to be repeating themselves in present times yet we are failing to take warning The most obvious cause of the collapse has been attributed to some 300 groups of barbarians (the Visigoths, the Vandals, the Huns etc) invading and attacking the empire from all sides, diluting the military power, traditions and beliefs to its final disappearance.

Now compare this to the daily invasion of refugees coming from Africa and Middle Eastern countries. What are we doing about it? Are we such magnanimous humanitarians that we are prepared to sacrifice our values, traditions, religions and beliefs to be drowned and dissipated by such invaders?

Unfortunately, once they are here they do not adapt, they multiply and even expect us to adapt to their customs and beliefs.

Granted no fighting is taking place, it is all done civilly, except perhaps for the exceptions that started to rear their ugly head in Greece.

Nevertheless it is an invasion not dissimilar to that of the Roman Empire. So what are we doing about it?

Whilst Rome was under attack from outside forces, it was also crumbling from within due to a severe financial crisis. Oppressive taxation and inflation widened the gap www.webexpressguide.com

13

IN MY OPINION

between rich and poor. To avoid the taxman many of the wealthy members of the society removed themselves from the area and the system. Doesn’t this remind you of what is happening now?

Rome’s size made it difficult to govern just as difficult as it may be to govern a United Europe. Of course political assassinations are not a common occurrence these days (or are they?), all the same I think that political incompetence and corruption may even exceed the Roman Empire’s levels, not to mention fraud. Romans lost their trust on their leaders as we seem to have lost it in ours and the banks.

One other relevant factor that contributed to the downfall of the Empire has been the loss of religious beliefs, traditions and Roman values as they were gradually replaced by the growth of Christianity. We certainly seem to be losing our faith in Christianity while other religions, one in particular, are getting an increasingly stronger foothold.

The fall of the Roman Empire is not an isolated case; one can take a look at other historical events that caused the fall of other great empires. China was also a mighty Empire once, however its collapse is due to the unwillingness to trade with foreign powers and the change from monarchy 14

www.webexpressguide.com

to a corrupt democracy where political corruption yet again plays an important destructive role. China today is one of the largest world economies due to its massive 1.3 million population playing an influential role on the global economy yet it is still considered a developing country.

Corruption, overproduction for the export sector and the ban on Chinese to invest abroad combined with the massive amount of corporate borrowing over several years to build high rise constructions in different towns which remain mainly unoccupied might explain the Chinese market crash in July and the more recent devaluation of the currency that wiped out trillions of its people’s savings. Doesn’t this represent another case of failing to learn from past history?

“Nihil novi sub soli” (there is nothing new under the sun) so why do we keep repeating the same mistakes over and over again? We do not seem to learn do we?

Clearly corruption and fraud driven by greed are the underlying factors that lead to the destruction of individuals and nations but I really fail to see where the remedy might lie.

If religion and the fear of God are intended to touch the conscience and curb corruption we seem to be on a loser.

Most of us are concerned about the way we look, especially after seeing the competition on the beach during summer. So we determine to improve our figure before the next summer dreaming of a healthy looking body: the envy of others and the attraction to the opposite sex. Of course, but beware, because moderation is the key to success even if it takes longer.

Severe cut back on calories can result in weight loss, but this reduces the metabolism as well as precious muscle. A drastic reduction can actually increase the risk for metabolic syndrome and type 2 diabetes.

You should never cut calories below 1200 per day. Remember that if you lose weight too fast you are likely to put more back even quicker, especially if you are over 50.

Beware of supplements that make miracle promises, If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is. Makers of supplements are not required to prove safety or effectiveness for their products; if you think you should try this be advised to ask your doctor to recommend a proven product.

To lose weight or to avoid putting it back on some resort to laxatives and even vomiting after eating with a serious danger of dehydration, which is even riskier when combined with fasting. Repeated use of ipecac to induce vomit can 16

Большинство обеспокоено тем как они выглядят, особенно после лета, проведенного на пляже. Так мы решаем улучшить нашу фигуру к следующему лету и мечтаем иметь здоровое красивое тело на зависть окружающим и привлекательное для противоположного пола. Конечно это прекрасно, но будьте аккуратны, только умеренность является ключом к успеху, хоть и занимает больше времени.

La mayoría de nosotros estamos preocupados por la manera en que nos vemos, sobre todo después de ver como competimos en la playa durante el verano. Pensamos en mejorar nuestra figura antes del próximo verano soñando con un cuerpo de aspecto saludable: la envidia de los demás y la atracción por el sexo opuesto.

Por supuesto, pero tenga cuidado, ya que la moderación es la clave del éxito, incluso si se necesita más tiempo.

Сильное сокращение калорий приведет к потере веса, но это снижает метаболизм и драгоценные мыщцы. Резкое сокращение может увеличить риск метаболического синдрома и сахарного диабета второго типа. Нельзя сокращать потребление калорий ниже 1200 в день. Помните, если вы теряете вес слишком быстро, он также быстро и больше вернется назад, особенно если вам больше 50 лет.

Una ausencia grave en el consumo de calorías puede dar lugar a una pérdida de peso, pero esto reduce el metabolismo, así como la masa muscular. Una reducción drástica, en realidad, puede aumentar el riesgo de síndrome metabólico y la diabetes tipo 2. Nunca se debe reducir las calorías por debajo de 1.200 por día. Recuerde que si usted pierde peso demasiado rápido es probable que vuelva incluso más rápido a su peso original, especialmente si usted tiene más de 50 años.

Остерегайтесь добавок, которые обещают чудо, если это звучит слишком хорошо, чтобы быть правдой, так оно и есть.

El Castillo Restaurant A unique good food experience, in a relaxed and pleasant environment. get the best out of anything cooked in it. The flavour is quite unique.

There is a substantial menu and everything, except perhaps the salads and the pastas, is cooked in the oven. Steaks, Chicken, Lamb, Piglet and yes even fish. As a matter of fact the fish is exceptionally good.

One of the most important improvements made by the new owners was to build an exact replica of an authentic wood burning oven.

The exact shape, construction and materials used are crucial to creating this very special oven in order to obtain the best possible level of cooking and flavours.

No, not just another pizza oven, although you do get a perfect pizza as they do in Naples, this oven requires the skill of a master chef to 24

www.webexpressguide.com

Should anyone prefer fried or steamed or otherwise prepared food, naturally the chef is always willing to please.

Of course the freshness and quality of the food are most important but what is also important is the excellent service and the welcoming and relaxing atmosphere that you will experience at the Castillo.

You really need to try this eatery and as a family run business it is not expensive but worth every penny.

WHATS NEWS

…not just your

average curry...

The popularity of Indian cuisine has resulted in a number of Indian restaurants opening on the Costa del Sol. Curry is an international word understood in every conceivable language and that is why there are so many Indian restaurants on the Costa and everywhere else.

It is not commonly known, but an average Indian dish includes at least 7 ingredients but their flavours must not overlap with the result that each ingredient provides a unique component in the final meal. It is a cuisine that uses more than 200 known ingredients and spices and it is the real reason why that unique aroma stimulates your appetite as you enter an Indian restaurant.

However so many ingredients and spices require real expertise to know which to use, what amounts and with what recipe this and the SPICE VILLAGE restaurant is highly recommended for their ability to prepare a dish even tailor made to individual requirements. The chef at Spice Village will ensure that you enjoy a good Indian meal 26

www.webexpressguide.com

without the worry of allergies, upsets or intolerances.

No colour additives, no artificial ingredients only the natural goodness of the food, the freshness of local vegetables and pure natural spices. If you need to know the right notes to make a pleasant melody Spice Village know the right spices to make the perfect meal.

Spice Village aim to please offering a well constructed menu with a good choice of traditional side dishes, of course all ingredients are fresh and pleasing to the stomach as well as palate.

The owner cannot do enough to please his customers offering the best possible and attentive service to ensure that you fully enjoy your meal and come back.

As with most Indian restaurants take away is available.

“Sheikh rattle n roll” Sheikh is the super freindly owner.

A nice guy. His food is freshly cooked.

I LUURVE my indian food and my meal was excellent. We’ve had takeaways and they’re excellent too.

NO two people in the country will agree on the exact recipe of a favourite dish. Recipes are handed down from generation to generation, verbally in the kitchen and are closely guarded secrets in most cases, but all agree, a dish is well cooked when the spices blend into the well cooked meat.

The spices should not have disparate flavour, or taste raw. No one spice should over-power the other and be so intrusive as to completely hide the true taste of the vegetable or meat dish being cooked. It should help maintain and enhance the character of the dish, give it colour and fragrance and leave you wanting more!.

Spice Village situated on the New Golden Mile, prides itself on offering the most exotic and delicious dishes from India in a warm relaxed atmosphere.

Our food is freshly made to order, so whether you prefer mild dishes such as Chicken Korma, Chicken Tikka Masala or a fiery Vindaloo or Phal dish we can ensure you’ll find the right curry to suit tantalise your taste buds.

Гипербарическая кислородная терапия = качество жизни Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy = Quality of life Гипербарическая кислородная терапия заключается в размещении пациента внутри камеры под более высоким, чем обычно, давлением воздуха, таким образом позволяя ему дышать 100 процентно чистым кислородом. В этих условиях кислород обладает терапевтическим воздействием, и в особенности рекомендован для уменьшения воспалений и отёков, облегчения последствий лучевой терапии, ускорения восстановления после повреждений нервной системы, стимуляции коллагена, способствования заживления сложных ранений и проблем диабетических стоп предотвращая ампутацию, улучшения восстановления после спортивных травм и хронической усталости. Он также контролирует инфекции, тормозя анаэробные бактерии, повышает эффект от некоторых антибиотиков, увеличивает репродукцию клеток, реверсирует развитие гипоксического состояния и мобилизирует стволовые клетки из костного мозга. Фактически, циркуляция кислорода в крови в более высокой концентрации, чем обычно, даёт общее улучшение в организме. Барокамера гипербарического медицинского центра изготовлена из полностью прозрачного материала. Она рассчитана на одного человека, гигиенична, удобна в использовании и является единственной в провинции Малага.

Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy consists of placing the patient in a chamber under a higher than normal air pressure so that they can breathe 100 per cent pure oxygen Under these conditions, the oxygen has a therapeutic effect and is especially recommended for reducing inflammation and oedema, relieving the effects of radiotherapy treatments, accelerating recovery from neurological damage, stimulating collagen, encouraging the healing of difficult injuries and diabetic foot problems avoiding amputation, improving recovery from sports injuries and chronic tiredness, it controls infections inhibiting anaerobic bacteria, it boosts the effect of some antibiotics, it increases cell reproduction, it reverses hypoxic condiction and it mobilizes stem cells from bone marrow.

In fact, the oxygen circulating through the blood at a higher concentration than usual provides a general improvement to the organism.

The hyperbaric chamber at the Hyperbaric Medical Centre is made of a completely transparent material. It is for one person, it is hygienic, comfortable to use and is unique in Malaga province.

Back to school, tips for parents!

The return to school is one of the moments most dreaded by children and possibly most wished for by parents. by Sonia Fendley. Director STM NU Nummos Life SL September symbolises a return to normality, normal schedules, meals and routine and this can cause anxiety to both adults and children.

After a break of almost 2 and half months during which bedtimes are later than usual getting back to normality can be a struggle.

Although the return to school for us parents is good news, for the children it is a different matter. In most cases it is difficult for them to adapt themselves to the school routine in the first weeks; we must understand them because it also happens to us. Which one of us is happy to return to work following a few days without obligations? Who jumps with joy at the prospect of returning to the office after a holiday?

It helps them to see that we understand and we must look for the positive points of the return to the school: •

44

Look forward to meeting with your friends again!

www.webexpressguide.com

• • •

You return to your sports group Meeting your new teacher Join after school activities

It is also important to involve the child in the purchase of the school kits, choosing colours, etc. together. We must make them participants of all the changes that affect them directly. It is also advisable to commence earlier bedtimes sooner so that the change is not so sudden.

Our children are our mirror: If we are enthusiasts and happy, they also it will be. If however we are negative and pessimists, they will be timid and shy children.

If possible accompany your child to school on the first day of term; this small effort can help immensely in settling their anxieties.

Remember to keep goodbyes brief or you will make it more difficult. Collecting them later that afternoon they will be full of stories about their day, enjoy listening.

I

prickly pair

Who do you think What you see is what you get; I have never pretended to be someone else. I have always done the job I was trained for and I am quite happy and proud to admit it.

However, living here on the Costa del Sol, I can see how tempting and how easy it can be to be someone else.

With a bit of P.R., a lot of charity dos attendances and quite a lot of bullshit I could have been a descendant from German aristocracy and, as my ancestors were Jewish, I could very easily become Prickly von Cohen.

But there is a trick in reinventing yourself in the first place and this is that you must inject just a tiny amount of truth, hopefully something that appears reasonable but that cannot be easily checked.

After the number of years that I have lived on this Costa, I have seen some incredible transformations; from some rich business man’s humble bit on the side mistresses to company directors of all types of businesses, normally something of which they know nothing about, yet suddenly they seem to have studied and trained for it since childhood. Businesses that are set up with payoffs from said rich men when they were replaced by younger models or when they decided to stay with the smarter wife, as mistress was the cheaper option (no kids).

Common sense should also tell these transformers, as I call them, that if they used one organ on their bodies 46

www.webexpressguide.com

to get where they are, there’s no point now trying to use another organ (the brain) to suddenly become the female version of Stephen Hawkins.

Some typical examples of transformations are: • Wall painters suddenly transforming into interior designers.

• Opticians transforming into eye fashion experts.

• Women who shopped a lot, suddenly become fashion designers just because they get a photographer, a hotel and some friends to some get together. Go on impress me! Get Kate Moss, Claudia Schaeffer or even Naomi Campbell!

Not! • The sad computer nerds changing into graphic designers & CEOs. •

The cooks to Chefs.

you are?

•

Some are selling second hand dresses and calling them vintage Haûte Couture.

• Others making cheap rubbish jewellery and pretending to be the Coast’s answer to Cartier.

• P.R. and promotion experts thinking that getting a load of half dressed wannabe models, dressed as Rio Carnival dancers for local beach bars means putting them in the same bracket as Saatchi & Saatchi.

• Others who started by clipping cheap photocopies together and reporting what’s going on locally (usually dogs shows) and boring dinner dances for old people at golf courses in aid of dogs, suddenly become Rupert Murdock.

• Doctors of cosmetic surgery suddenly are harmonising art and science when I thought they just sucked out as much fat as possible or cut bits out.

Well may be I am just old fashioned but not gullible.

• Somebody who can use an old fashioned camera becomes a society photographer, magically up there with David Bailey. Show me your photos of real stars love, not other transformers at beach bars in the summer.

Even I can do that!

Still next time I see you out and about and give you that knowing wink, you’ll know I have transformed momentarily into being discreet as usual.

Till next time the Prickly Pair (international journalist, author, professional people watcher, and artist and charity attendee).

VIRTUAL HUMOUR

This morning as I was buttoning my shirt a button fell off.

After that, I picked up my briefcase and the handle fell off.

Then I went to open the door and the doorknob fell off.

I went to get into my car and the door handle came off in my hand.

Now I’m afraid to pee....

An old retired sailor puts on his old uniform and goes down to the docks once more for old times sake. He finds a little prostitute and goes up into the room with her, draping his sailor suit across the bed.

He’s goin’ at it as best he can for a guy his age and asks, “How am I doin’?”

The whore says, “Well, sailor, you’re doing about three knots.”

What’s that?” he asks.

She says, “You’re ‘knot’ hard, you’re ‘knot’ in, and you’re ‘knot’ getting your money back!”

A husband and wife are trying to set up a new password for their computer. The husband puts, “Mypenis,” and the wife falls on the ground laughing because on the screen it says, “Error.

Not long enough.”

Why do married men gain weight and bachelors don’t? The bachelors go to the refrigerator, see nothing they want, then go to bed. Married guys go to bed, see nothing they want, then go to the refrigerator.

My friend thinks he is smart. He told me an onion is the only food that makes you cry, so I threw a coconut at his face.

A blonde goes on a hot date and ends up making out with the guy in his car. The guy asks if she would like to go in the backseat. “No!” yells the blonde. Things get even hotter, and the guy asks again. “For the last time, no!” says the blonde.

Frustrated, the guy asks, “Well, why the hell not?” The blonde says, “Because I wanna stay up here with you!”

Two men were talking.

“So, how’s your sex life?”

“Oh, nothing special. I’m having Social Security sex.”
