Badminton Players in the Area Please
Carolina Martín from Cádiz is the Olympic, European and World champion badminton.
Despite all her successes in the last few years, it seems that the Spanish do not play this sport very actively.
Are there any active badminton players on recreational level around here in Axarquía?

FBI Director Recommends Covering Webcam With Tape and Securing Security Cams
Yes, even Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg and FBI Director James Comey do that.
Cover your webcam to guard against hackers watching your private life thru your devices. Comey says it is common at the FBI and gov’t offices to cover computer and laptop webcams with tape. If you have internet connected security cameras, these are also subject to being hacked by criminals. Proper security measures can prevent this. Read articles at:

Win 7 Background Service Using All Your RAM Memory?
Is your Win 7 computer healthy and well maintained, but still suffers bouts of grindingly slow performance? It may well be a svchost.exe problem, where Windows Auto-Updates background service is hogging all your system memory resources. This issue is becoming more common on older Win 7 computers, and is part of the reason I keep Auto-Updates turned off on my computers, opting instead to do the updates manually. Here is a tutorial explaining it all.

How to place an article on DigameXtra!
Send an email to janekirkspain @ gmail (dot) com
The subject line of the email should be what you’d like to see as your heading – otherwise, I choose a subject line
The text of the email should be what you’d like to see published – but note:

If your first attempt to sell fails, note that a second attempt will not be allowed unless the original price is reduced considerably, nor for at least 2 weeks later.
Anyone selling anything must include the make and model number of the item.
Photos will only be published once.
Photos must be in JPG or JPEG Format
Please do not send ads for property / real estate.
All formatting, pretty colours, bold, underlining, strange fonts etc are automatically removed.
Please – Don’t use all Block CAPITALS LIKE THIS or I may have to send it back for you to put into normal case (This is the way people normally write, with capital letters where appropriate – such as “I” and place names “Malaga”, makers’ names such as “Electrolux”, days of the week “Monday”
You must include contact details, either an email address or a telephone number in the text. If you don’t I cannot publish it. Often I cannot “extract “your email address from the email, so repeat it please.

If you want to send a picture please send it as an attachment to your email, in JPG or JPEG format and try and keep the size down to around 200KB.
Please don’t send PDFs or Word documents.
Your email address must be quoted in this format…I insert spaces within the address so that nasty software can’t steal their address for spam purposes – e,g, my address is correctly janekirkspain@gmail,com
if it were a Contributor’s address I’d insert spaces thus –
janekirkspain @ gmail.com.
So all you do is remove those spaces before contacting a contributor.
New Rules for Blog
The rules for Blogs have changed and it now means that I could face a fine if I publish any negative reviews of any person or company – even though it may be true or half true.
Thank you – Working together we can achieve so much! Jane
