What’s On
Tell them you saw it on DigameXtra!
**********
(Date typo corrected) Today, Friday, 4 Aug, is a public holiday in Torrox: It is the Saint Roque and Virgin de las Nieves Celebration in honour of the patron saints of Torrox. Aldi in Torrox Costa has a sign posted announcing they will be closed, not sure about the other shops.

Parking at Minigolf La Herradura:
-Important Notice: Mingolf La Herradura will remain closed until Friday 11 August. If there is a change in advance of the 11th, it will be posted on our website, www.minigolflh.es . Also, it is best to contact me using WhatsApp, 603 416 632. Missed phone calls without a message may go unanswered at present. Sorry for any inconvenience.
-High Season Parking: After some heavy lifting, measuring and painting the first two-thirds of the Minigolf La Herradura plot is now home to 20 parking spaces available for daily parking. If you are planning on spending the day in La Herradura this summer holiday, you could not ask for a more central location.
There is a large bathroom available as well as a picnic table where self-catering is allowed. Security cameras cover the entire plot. You could almost call this “boutique” parking. As such I highly recommend that you call in advance for reservations.
-Opening Hours and Admission fee: A daily pass costs 10 euros with opening hours every day from 10:00 a.m. until 10:00 p.m. The price of admission includes unlimited access to the Minigolf course itself with parking included subject to availability.
-Minigolf has added an additional nine holes: The full 18-hole course is complete and easily playable. It has tucked in nicely at the back in the space previously used for racquet sports and one petanca lane. The only difference from before is shorter spacing from one hole to the next.
The second petanca lane has been converted into what I refer to as the nine hole “guerilla” course, the reason being that you decide the layout of the holes in whatever sneaky way you prefer. Nine actual holes are provided and there are various obstacles spread about. The players then decide how they want to arrange them, and where the hole will begin. It’s a fun way to create longer “holes” criss-crossing each other and there is no wrong design. A lot of fun in a small space.
-Location: We are very easy to find, albeit obscured from the beachfront Paseo Andrés Segovia. (See picture at the top. The red arrow reflects the fact these little alleys are one-way streets.). Please visit our website: www.minigolflh.es , contact tab, for full Google map.
Saludos, Señor Minigolf, Scott Huston/La Herradura

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.

Website www.axarquiaanimalrescue.com
– Ziggy – DOB 01.02.22 (estimated) – Ziggy is deaf, and has 2 different coloured eyes, his eyesight is fine, and his deafness doesn’t hold him back at all. He has done amazingly well since being found as a scared, confused pup to a dog full of confidence and happiness. He will need a home with secure outside space, and preferably no cats – he does like to chase them.
– Pedro – DOB 1.1.16 (estimated) – A small dog weighing only 8kg. Pedro doesn’t ask for much, a quiet life, he is more than happy to laze around and watch the world go by, short walks suit him best, he gets on well with other dogs and cats, and is a lovely little dog all round.
– Lana – DOB 20.03.23 – Rescued at 2 weeks old with her mum and siblings. Mum is a small dog, but Lana has been estimated to be on the large size of medium. Lana gets on well with other dogs, is very intelligent, and loves people.
– Dee Dee – DOB 18.03.23 – Born in kennels not long after her pregnant mum was rescued. Mum is a Bodeguero, but Dee Dee has been estimated to be medium to large in size. She is very playful, full of energy, but also very easy going. Loves her walks and is a great companion to have by your side.
– These are 4 of our dogs looking for homes of their own. All are fully vaccinated, chipped and have passports. Ziggy & Pedro are both neutered, DeeDee and Lana are too young at the moment. Please take a look at our website, where you will find more information and photos, plus details of other dogs and pups that we have in our care. We do ask for an adoption fee of €110 for pups that are fully vaccinated, chipped and have passports, and €180 for older dogs that are fully vaccinated, have all paperwork and have been neutered. This fee goes towards their vet bills and care, and help us to continue helping abandoned dogs and cats.

SPAIN
Spain leads youth unemployment with a rate of 27%, double that of the eurozone:
– The figures for youth unemployment are alarming. One out of every five unemployed people under 25 years of age is Spanish. While in the eurozone the rate fell to 13.8% in June, in Spain, it doubled to 27.4%, the highest among the twenty countries that make up the eurozone. Spain is ahead of Greece’s 23.6% and Sweden’s 21.3%. In total, 464,000 people under the age of 25 were unemployed at the end of June in Spain, 21% of all young unemployed in the eurozone.
– A report published this Tuesday 1 August by Infoempleo and Adecco also revealed that half of Spanish companies have less than 15% of their workforce under 30 years of age, and that 72% have not implemented any strategy to promote youth employment in the last year.
– By gender, women continue to have a higher unemployment rate than men, both in the eurozone as a whole, and in Spain. In the euro countries, the unemployment rate stood at 6.7% among women, compared to 6.1% for men, similar levels to those recorded in May. In Spain, the male unemployment rate is 10.2%, the highest of the euro countries. In the case of women, unemployment rises to 13.3%, one point below the level of a year ago.

The Andalusian Government raises the prices of all school services two months after students enroll: {Translation, summary}
– The Junta de Andalucía has raised the prices of all complementary school services – morning class, school canteen and extracurricular activities – in the last Governing Council before the vacations, last July 27, and two months after families enroll their children in the second cycle of kindergarten, the main gateway to the system.
– The public prices that families knew two months ago changed this Wednesday, August 2, when the Official Gazette of the Junta de Andalucía (BOJA) includes the agreement of “upward revision” proposed by the Ministry of Educational Development on July 27. In the next course, therefore, the cost of the morning class will be increased by 3.9% and will cost 17.51 euros per month and 1.33 euros per day [until now it cost 16.81 euros and 1.28 euros respectively].
– The cost of the school canteen service increased by 4.2%, from 4.78 to 4.98 euros per day, and school activities increased by 4.16%, from 16.81 euros per activity to 17.51 euros per month and activity.

Bank of England raises interest rate to 15-year high: The Bank of England raised on Thursday its main interest rate to 5.25%, the highest in 15 years, as the country strives to control persistently high inflation. The interest rate was increased by a quarter-percentage point, as anticipated by many economists. The hike was the bank’s 14th in a row.

Naythan’s Mystery Illness Solved?- Warnings on spread of black fly in Spain, who’s bite could lead to hospitalization: {Translation, summary}
– The National Association of Environmental Health Companies (Anecpla) urged Wednesday to carry out control tasks to prevent a black fly plague in summer after detecting an expansion of specimens, which wreak havoc with their aggressive bites.
– The black fly is an endemic species in Spain. Its expansion has undergone an exponential acceleration in recent years, ever more people affected by their bites are coming to health centers.
– It is a hematophagous fly, the black fly needs to consume blood to complete its life cycle. Lacking a stinger, this insect bites, tearing the skin of its victims with its mandibles in order to extract the blood. With this gesture it takes the opportunity to inoculate a small dose of anaesthetic, which will allow it to work quietly without the affected individual noticing for five minutes. The final effect results in a welt of several centimetres that often even bleeds, accompanied by a high swelling that can last up to a month, and may even require hospitalization.
– If bitten, it is recommended to apply ice to reduce the inflammation or apply an ointment with a mild corticoid and go to the nearest health centre and report the case to avoid a worsening of the reaction. And, of course, do not scratch, as this could worsen the wound or even infect it.
– The Spanish regions most affected by the presence of black flies are Andalusia, Aragon, Catalonia, Madrid, Murcia and Valencia, where this native insect of about six millimetres in length has grown to unprecedented numbers, mainly due to the increase in temperatures in recent years.

SPORTS
Performance-drugged ‘Olympics’ to launch in 2024 and pay athletes:
– Not only is the founder of the Enhanced Games against drug testing. He actively endorses the use of performance-enhancing drugs in athletics. “My body, my choice. Your body, your choice,” London-based businessman Aron D’Souza told The Post.
– D’Souza is the president of the Enhanced Games, a series of athletic competitions, open for anyone to apply, designed with the goal of breaking world records. He hopes to bring the competition to life in December 2024 as an alternative to the “corrupt” Olympics. (French police recently raided the Paris headquarters of the 2024 Olympics as part of a corruption probe.)
– Seeing it as his “moral duty to fix elite sports,” D’Souza said competitors will “be given a salary and a large cash prize for breaking a world record. We are creating an alternative elite sporting competition – giving elite athletes the choice between a life of poverty and obscurity competing in the Olympics, or financial well-being and the right to build their brand at the Enhanced Games. “The underpayment of athletes is the core moral failing of the Olympic movement — it is a vestige of the aristocratic sentiment behind the outdated unpaid ‘amateur’ requirement.”
– It’s more than that, though. Athletes will also be given free range to use performance-enhancing drugs. “We believe that individuals are best placed to make decisions about their own bodies, in consultation with their doctors. Therefore, we would welcome all performance therapies that are done under medical supervision,” D’Souza added.
“It shouldn’t be the place of a sports federation to intervene in the clinical process” Full article: https://nypost.com/2023/08/02/performance-drug-enhanced-games-to-launch-in-2024-pay-athletes/

China looks to limit teens 16-18 to two hours a day on their phones, far less for younger children:
– China’s cyberspace regulator said on Wednesday children under the age of 18 should be limited to a maximum of two hours a day on their smartphones, sending shares in tech companies tumbling. In 2021, the government imposed a curfew for video game players under the age of 18. That dealt a huge blow to gaming giants like Tencent.
– The Cyberspace Administration of China (CAC) said it wanted providers of smart devices to introduce so-called minor mode programmes that would bar users under 18 from accessing the internet on mobile devices from 10 p.m. to 6 a.m.
– Providers would also have to set time limits under the proposed reforms, the CAC said. Users aged 16 to 18 would be allowed two hours a day, children aged eight to 16 would get one hour while children under eight would be allowed just eight minutes. But the CAC said service providers should allow parents to opt out of the time limits for their youngsters.
