Famed jazz pianist Fred Hersch: Live at Museo Picasso Málaga
At the MPM Auditorium on Saturday 2 July at 20:00, in his only concert in Andalusia.
The prestigious magazine All About Jazz states that “when it comes to the art of solo piano in jazz, there are two kinds of performers: Fred Hersch and everyone else”, for as versatile and exploratory as his trio and duo excursions are, nowhere is his limitless range and emotional diversity more evident than in his solo performances, such as the one he will be performing at the Museo Picasso Málaga.
They are already selling tickets (18 euros) in http://www.museopicassomalaga.org as well as at the ticket office of the Picasso Museum in Malaga. Source, Spanish: https://www.malagahoy.es/ocio/Hersch-Museo-Picasso-Malaga-Andalucia_0_1691531716.html

MOONETTE – Organic Skincare for Mature Skin
We are a Torrox-based company specialising in the creation of formulae which help prevent premature skin ageing. We are committed to making effective products at affordable prices.
Your skin health matters to us. How you feed your skin is as important as how you feed your body. Why settle for anything less than natural and organic?
As our skin is the first layer of our defence against microbial infections, ultraviolet radiation and environmental contamination it plays a vital role in our health. As we grow older, however, our skin becomes thinner, wrinkled, and more sensitive; hence it requires the use of treatments containing specific ingredients to the care of treating mature skin.
Recognising this need we have created a range of formulae which help
-slow down ageing process by smoothing fine lines and wrinkles.
-improve facial complexion and eliminate blemishes.
At Moonette, we are passionate about health, beauty and plants. Your skin will benefit from the properties of botanic essential oils combined with a selection of nutrients for deep hydration, cell revitalization and antioxidant effect, all sourced from the finest natural ingredients with gorgeous fragrances.
Naturally, we care about our planet and feel the need to help reduce the sheer volumes of plastics waste that are generated daily around the globe. Presently, we are minimizing the usage of plastic materials in our production while seeking alternative forms of packaging. To help reduce pollution we are asking all local customers to recycle or reuse their Moonette skincare containers, and offering a small discount on future purchases to customers recycling containers.

COVID
Covid Malaga- Malaga has 93 hospitalised with Covid, the lowest number in six months: {Translation, summary} 10June22 14:16
-The pandemic is not over, but for now, the pressure is easing. The province of Malaga has recorded the lowest number of hospitalisations in the last six months. However, according to Friday’s report five more deaths from the virus are registered.
-Not since the beginning of December last year have such positive figures been recorded in terms of admissions. On the 6th of that month, 90 people were hospitalised with the infection. Now, six months later, the number of patients in hospital has again fallen below 100. As of 10 June, 93 patients had been admitted, five of them to an ICU.
-Covid’s provincial rate is slightly higher than last Tuesday. Then it was 254.7 cases in people over 60 years of age, while now it is 262.3. In the city of Malaga, it stands at 275.0. In any case, given that a large part of the population is no longer being tested – many times the pathology is treated as a cold – the incidence is actually higher. However, the relatively low number of hospitalisations indicates that the pandemic is, at least for the time being, under control.

MONKEYPOX
Malaga triples confirmed cases of monkeypox, and now totalling nine: {Translation, 1st 3 paragraphs} 10June22 13:51
-Cases of monkeypox in the province of Malaga have tripled since last Tuesday. From three reported in the previous report of the Consejería de Salud y Familias, this Friday there are now nine cases confirmed by the tests of the Centro Nacional de Microbiología (National Microbiology Centre).
-According to the health administration, this Friday there are 18 confirmed cases in the autonomous community: 9 in Malaga plus 5 in Seville, 1 in Cadiz, 2 in Granada and 1 in Jaen. In addition, 10 cases are under investigation (1 probable and 9 suspected). Of these ten, eight are in the province of Malaga, one in Granada and one in Cadiz. On the other hand, 42 cases have been declared to the Andalusian Epidemiological Surveillance System Network (SVEA).
-The Regional Minister of Health, Jesús Aguirre, reported that the 18 confirmed cases “are at home, with a mild clinical evolution, many of them asymptomatic, and some of them have already been discharged from the hospital”. For this reason, he added that “we should not be concerned” about the pathology, although he insisted that “we must take the necessary precautions to avoid these contacts and be as protected as possible”.

SPAIN
Drivers who will not be paying road tolls from 2024 onwards: {Translation}
-Following the government’s announcement that Spanish motorways and dual carriageways will be toll roads from 2024, there is no shortage of car and vehicle users who are wondering whether there will be exceptions that will allow them to drive freely on them. The head of the Directorate General of Traffic (DGT), Pere Navarro, has explained that there are indeed a number of cases in which circulation will be free.
-Although he insists that the model to be implemented will be based on “affordable fares” (which have not yet been defined), certain circumstances will be toll-free, meaning that users in these cases will not be affected by the new charging system on Spain’s high-capacity network.
-Which cases will be exempted? Specifically, there are three cases excluded from the charges for using Spain’s motorways and dual carriageways:
– Journeys to and from work
– Journeys to and from the study centre
– Journeys for medical reasons.
Thus, whatever the cost of using high-capacity roads, those who have to use them daily (or at any other frequency) to travel to their workplace or place of study will not have to pay.
-In addition to these daily journeys, those who have to go to a hospital or health centre for any kind of medical consultation or intervention will not have to pay either.
-Pere Navarro argues the establishment of these quotas or tariffs to guarantee the maintenance of roads without overburdening those who do not use them: “We cannot charge the State budget for the conservation and maintenance of motorways and dual carriageways and make the poor granny who receives a pension, who does not even have a car, pay for the conservation and maintenance of high-speed roads”.

In mid-July it will take place in the Tajo de la Virgen and in the first fortnight of September the programme will close in the area of the Barco Hundido, the well-known “rice boat”, the star visit of the Torroxeño coastline.
-For this first route, participants are scheduled to meet at 09.30 in the area of La Restinga, by the beach of Vilches. The participants will be given a briefing and the diving equipment. There will be a 45 minute dive where, while contemplating the seabed, they will talk about the underwater life they will encounter, which will also serve as a recognition of species.
He also specified that if there are more than 15 registrations, there will be two groups, with the second group entering the water at around 11.30 a.m. so that the activity will be finished by 1 p.m.
-The mayor has encouraged all diving and nature lovers, both locals and visitors, to participate in this activity with which they can explore and contemplate the aquatic ecosystem and marine fauna found along the coastline of the municipality.
-Those interested in taking part in this and any of the other two routes can register now at the Sports Department by calling 952 53 99 27. The registration fee is 5 euros for each route.

WEEKEND RECIPE
Fryer-Free Flamenquín: The traditional recipe of flamenquín is made with pieces of Serrano ham or smoked pork shoulder, and often cheese, rolled into a pork loin, then egg-washed and bread crumbed and the last step, you deep-fried it. Over the years, new flamenquín recipes have been developed using different ingredients. For a Mexican twist, add hot-pepper cheese and pickled jalapeño slices.
Since we try to minimize consumption of fried foods for health reasons, here is a flamenquín which is lighter since it’s not deep-fried but baked, and with chicken breasts substituted for pork loin. It’s a bit different from the traditional, but equally tasty. Photo:IKO. Full recipe with step by step photos: https://cookingwithiko.com/flamenquin/

In search of the friendliness gene that turned wolves into dogs:
-In a double experiment published in Scientific Reports, Nagsawa and his team observed that ancient Japanese dog breeds–which are closer to primitive wolf-dogs than modern breeds are–had diminished capacities of responding to signals from humans. After examining the genetics of over 600 dogs, the scientists found that some had a distinctive quality related to the production of cortisol, a stress hormone.
-Over email, Nagasawa explains that the results support the hypothesis that some of those early dogs had genetic mutations that allowed them to experience less stress when in contact with humans. That allowed the beginnings of the interactions that turned into friendship. “Even though it’s still not clear whether cortisol, a stress marker, is lower in dogs than in wolves, it can give us clues about how canine tolerance and the ability to adapt to human society was developed,” the researcher explains.
