Wanted: Architect/Surveyor (el topógrafo). We want to check if the actual boundaries of our land and the data that is in the catastro are correct. And get them corrected if they differ (and I am afraid they will be different).
Does anyone have good experiences with an architect to measure the land, who actually has the capacity to submit corrections to the catastro?
Thanks, Brigitta/Competa
brigitta dot flipse at hotmail dot com
P.S. Most people I know had incorrect data in the catastro. Shouldn’t they be responsible for correcting their mess-up?

Local drummer phenom, 10yr old Sergio Rodriguez from Marbella, tops the charts: Sergio has become the youngest musician to achieve the highest possible drumming grade awarded in music by the prestigious London-based Trinity College, scoring an impressive 87 per cent.
Now that he has achieved the highest possible drumming grade, Sergio is eager for new challenges, such as jazz. “The world of jazz is difficult, but he hopes to have reached a professional level within two years and to develop his musical tastes,” says Habacuc Rodríguez, the young drummer’s father. Sergio wants to become the world’s best drummer. “I want to be like Eric Moore or better,” says the 10-year-old, who seems to transform as soon as he steps on stage. “I want to fill stadiums with my band.”

How Did We Miss This Week’s Shockingly Close Asteroid Flyby?: This week, an asteroid flew by the Earth, coming as close as 44342 miles away. No, you shouldn’t worry about this specific asteroid (anymore, at least), but you might wonder how we missed it.
A team at the SONEAR Observatory in Brazil first noticed the asteroid on Wednesday, and it appeared in another American team’s data later that day, before flying by hours later. The asteroid itself was between 53 and 130 meters in diameter (187 and 426 feet), or as several astronomers have referred to it, “a city killer.” It was not a city killer, of course—it didn’t hit a city, and probably would not have hit a city had it hit the Earth. Still, how do you miss something like that?
Well, these asteroids are incredibly faint, and a few hundred feet might sound large if it pummels the Earth, but that’s incredibly small on astronomical scales. Even if these rocks eventually get close enough that we can actually detect them, survey telescopes must be looking at the right place in the sky when the blips pass by.

Within the Petit Brunch program there will be various activities for children, as well as innovative children’s projects.
Brunch -In The Park is a festival that is committed to quality food, made with ecological products and kilometer 0, to gather strength before and after dj’s sessions and ensure healthy leisure to all attendees.
As part of the motto ‘Alegría y Compromiso’ and DNA of the brand, concrete actions of community, sustainability and equality will be organized. The objective is that the Loma del Castillo Sohail, which is where this event will take place, becomes a great party where everyone, big and small are protagonists, and all mixed with the best music, gastronomy, leisure and media ambient.

Solar filming: Does anyone out there in Digame land know anyone who can repair/fix solar filming in Torrox area to two door size windows? and how much we could expect to pay? We are also looking for a roller blind supplier – any advice appreciated – Paul & Lynda/Torrrox Park.

Sayalonga Outings: In these scorching, hazy lazy summer days I would recommend a visit to the Museo Morisco de Sayalonga or Sayalonga Moorish Museum. The detailed visit could take you up to one hour of paintings, literature, flamenco and local history. Just a big change from the crowded coastal scene. Your guide Gema speaks some English too and it’s FREE.

You’re very easy to track down, even when your data has been anonymized! By MIT Tech Review: A new study shows you can be easily re-identified from almost any database, even when your personal details have been stripped out. The data trail we leave behind us grows all the time. Most of it isn’t that interesting—the takeout meal you ordered, that shower head you bought online—but some of it is deeply personal: your medical diagnoses, your sexual orientation, or your tax records.

Language Tricks: English speakers who try to learn Spanish soon learn they already know a lot of words. Almost anything ending in “…tion”, can be changed to “…cion”, move the accent to the end (or cut off the end for the Andaluz touch), and the word is generally understood in Spanish. Action becomes acción, invention becomes invención, traction becomes tracción, etc.
Well here is some more good news for us Spanglish speakers. What may have started as a tongue-in-cheek joke among Spaniards has now infected the language: Anglicisms are everywhere. Here are some English words and phrases that now work in most of Spain.
-‘50:50’[fifty-fifty]. The universal either-or.
-‘Crazy’ [crray-Z]
-‘Fake’ [fay-k]. As in fake news or Ropa fake (counterfeit clothes). Everyday speech in Spain has been no more immune to the charms of fake news phraseology than anywhere else. Drop this little gem in next to anything you don’t like but can’t be bothered to actually debate.
-‘Fan’ [fan]. The term ‘amante’ (‘lover’, often used for illicit relationships) used to be the word to use when you had strong feelings for something. And now it’s something else: a word from English.
-‘Feeling’ [feel-ing]. The word ‘feeling’ itself has not only dropped into Spanish, but made a strong play for the most-used English word.
-‘Game over’ [gaym-ohver]. A popular TV, movie and social media term that has gained universal recognition.
-‘Heavy’ [hehv-ee]. Refers both to classic rock (your AC/DCs and your Iron Maidens) and anything vaguely deep, strong or powerful.
-‘Oh my God’ [oh-mai-got].
-‘Show / performance’ [per-fohrm-ahnce] [sh-ohw]. These are ‘unnecessary anglicisms,’ according to the Real Academia Española, charged with protecting the correct use of the Spanish language. Which is EXACTLY what we’re looking for.
-‘Vintage’ [Vin-tahj]

Joan Baez Farewell Tour: Baez has organized a farewell tour that will bring her to Spain on July 24, 25, 27 and 28. Rather than risking losing her voice during a live performance, Baez has organized a farewell tour. Her first Spanish appearance will be at the San Sebastián Jazz Festival, followed by the Jardines Terramar Festival in the Catalan city of Sitges, the Porta Ferrada Festival in Girona and the Universal Music Festival at Madrid’s Teatro Real.
Joan Baez – the female icon of US folk music in the 1960s and ’70s, a singer whose piercing soprano tone dazzled Bob Dylan – is losing her voice. The assertion is not the result of a nasty critical review or a secret suspicion harbored by her fans. The 78-year-old artist is the first person to admit that her vocal cords are not what they used to be: “This muscle that makes the difference is not making it anymore, it needs a lot of work.” Photo Credit: Getty Images.

Computer Repairs by DoctorLaptop, Torrox Costa: DoctorLaptops Tips #75
Email & Social Media Two Factor Authentication Sign-in Risk!
The concept of 2 factor authentication is good in theory, where you log-in and then receive a security code via text msg to your mobile to complete the log-in process.
Here is the problem: If you lose your mobile you won’t be able to complete the 2-factor log-in. When this happens you get locked out. You will be offered an option if you can’t receive the texted code. They will offer to send a one-time, 1 hour only password reset link to your “recovery” email inbox. Do you even remember what other email address you used as the recovery email to set up the currently unavailable account? If you remember, is it still active? If the recovery email is no longer accessible you will not be able to retrieve the password reset link it contains. At that point you are locked out of the account demanding 2-factor sign-in and it will require many days and emails to support to get back in, and often you will simply be told to make a new account. Unless you are willing to lose all content on your social media, or all your emails and contacts, you need to heed this warning!
Before you encounter this situation do yourself a favor and check all your email and social media account Settings, confirm the recovery email address is current and accessible. While you are in Settings, copy off all the other ID and account info. Facebook often demands your date of birth or location as a security step. If you used a fudged DOB or now have a new location, you’ll want those old answers saved somewhere in case you need them. If you are having trouble with this make an appointment and we can go over it together.

Info Wanted: Does anyone know anywhere in the Axarquía where you can get strong wholemeal bread flour and redbush tea?
The flour probably needs to be an English brand such as Dove’s, Marriages, Allinsons etc as I have been told by my herbolistería that no Spanish brands exist. I would need 10 or 12 bags at a time, so if anyone knows any shop that could order it even if they don’t normally stock it, that would be helpful to know.
I am also looking for Redbush teabags in boxes of 80, Tetley’s, Tick Tock or similar, if again anyone knows any shop that could get these for me.
I have tried Arkwrights in Puente don Manuel, but they are unable to get either of these items for me.
Thanks in advance for your help. Wendy/sedella

Drug Expiration Dates — Do They Mean Anything? By The Harvard Medical School, updated August 13, 2018.
The big question is, do pills expire? With a splitting headache, you reach into your medicine cabinet for some aspirin only to find the stamped expiration date on the medicine bottle is more than a year out of date. So, does medicine expire? Do you take it or don’t you? If you decide to take the aspirin, will it be a fatal mistake or will you simply continue to suffer from the headache?
It turns out that the expiration date on a drug is the date at which the manufacturer can still guarantee the FULL potency and safety of the drug.
Most of what is known about drug expiration dates comes from a study conducted by the Food and Drug Administration at the request of the military. With a large and expensive stockpile of drugs, the military faced tossing out and replacing its drugs every few years. What they found from the study is 90% of more than 100 drugs, both prescription and over-the-counter, were perfectly good to use even 15 years after the expiration date.
A rare exception to this may be tetracycline, but the report on this is controversial among researchers. It’s true the effectiveness of a drug may decrease over time, but much of the original potency still remains even a decade after the expiration date. Excluding nitroglycerin, insulin, and liquid antibiotics, most medications are as long-lasting as the ones tested by the military. Placing a medication in a cool place, such as a refrigerator, will help a drug remain potent for many years.
Is the expiration date a marketing ploy by drug manufacturers, to keep you restocking your medicine cabinet and their pockets regularly? You can look at it that way. Or you can also look at it this way: The expiration dates are very conservative to ensure you get everything you paid for. And, really, if a drug manufacturer had to do expiration-date testing for longer periods it would slow their ability to bring you new and improved formulations.
