Minigolf La Herradura, the Full Experience, Halting to Closure- The Wheels Came Off, Mine! + Reorganization Update:
Tragically, at least from my point of view, after years of chronic knee pain, due, I believe to a lifetime of chasing after one type of sport ball or another, the level heightened dramatically over the last few months. After scans, MRIs and consultations with both public and private specialists, it turns out the knees, the wheels of yours truly, are so riddled with untreatable, degenerative arthritis at the tender age of 57 as to be completely kaput. In short, the labor required as is to maintain the grounds and sustain the level of play at Minigolf La Herradura is far too much weight for these broken knees to bear barring the dosage of pain-killers that would KO a rhino and in quick order lead to multiple organ failures. (Pictured below, Wednesday night’s final birthday party.) Not recommended. Thus,
-Plan B: Operation Parking Lot. Thinking fast, I reread my contract recalling that the land can be used, aside from leisure and agriculture, for car parking as well. And so it shall. I have converted the plot with the front two-thirds where the Minigolf course was now functioning as holiday car parking.
What in effect will happen is that for the price of admission, to be determined, you will either be paying for parking with the Minigolf course as a free perk, or you’ll be paying for the Minigolf with parking as a free perk, the price being the same in either case. If that makes any sense.
The full 18-hole Minigolf course will be complete and easily playable, though snugly tucked at the back in the space previously used for racquet sports and petanca, the only difference being shorter spacing from one hole to the next.
-Location: We are very easy to find, albeit obscured from the beachfront Paseo Andrés Segovia. Just two small alleys back, we are directly behind the children’s playground, the Centro de Salud, post office and newly remodeled market/food court. Please visit our website: http://www.minigolflh.es for a Google map which pins us down exactly.
-Opening Hours: We are open for parking as of today, Friday 23 June. And we will be open every day from now until 11 September when schools reopen. Regarding the time, provisionally it will be from 9:00am until 10:00pm. There will be overnight and long-term parking available but no access to the car outside of these hours. I’m certain by next week’s post, the opening times will be finalized. As always, feel free to ring me with any questions you might have on +34 603 416 632.
Best regards, Señor El Parking, 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.

SPAIN
President Sanchez’s Spain-Algeria-Morocco Fiasco Threatens More Than Spain’s Fuel Supplies, “Sánchez’s turn on the Sahara is a very serious mistake”, according to the former director of the CNI: {Translation}
– The former director of the CNI (2001-2004) and former Spanish ambassador to Morocco between 1997 and 2001, Jorge Dezcallar, has criticised the turn that the President of the Government, Pedro Sánchez, took in March by supporting Morocco’s sovereignty over Western Sahara: “It is a very serious mistake”. Dezcallar said this at a conference he gave on Wednesday at the Círculo Ecuestre in Barcelona under the title “Geopolitics in times of great rivalries”.
– “I don’t understand what this government has done in changing our position on the Sahara. I don’t see what advantages we have obtained, nobody has explained it to me, I think it is a very serious mistake”, said Dezcallar in his speech.
– “When the UN saw that it was impossible to hold a referendum on independence in the Sahara because Morocco refused, it said that there had to be at least an agreement between the parties. And Spain supported that decision. And we were doing very well there. And suddenly the President of the Government decides, without the knowledge of his government or his partners in government, or his investiture partners or the opposition, that he is going to support Morocco’s sovereignty over the Sahara”, Dezcallar said, before criticising the move.
– “And we found out about this through a letter that was leaked from the Royal Palace of Morocco, the full text of which we still do not know because it has not been published, despite the fact that Congress has asked for it”, the former director of the CNI pointed out.
– Dezcallar argued that support for Morocco’s sovereignty in the Sahara is of little benefit to Spain. “What have we gained? A decrease in irregular immigration? OK, yes, a decrease that is reversible, but yes”, Dezcallar conceded, before listing a series of geopolitical problems with Morocco that persist despite diplomatic support for the Maghreb monarchy.
– “Ceuta and Melilla are being suffocated by Morocco. In fact, anyone who believes that Morocco is going to give up sovereignty over Ceuta and Melilla should take a look at it. We also continue to have territorial water delimitation problems with the Moroccans that remain unresolved. Nor has the customs office in Melilla been reopened? I only see that Sánchez’s move has put us in the middle of the war between Algeria and Morocco, and stones are falling on us from all sides”, Dezcallar commented.
– Along the same lines, the Spanish ex-diplomat argued that the government’s move has “made Algeria very angry” and that this has led to an 85% drop in exports to the African country compared to last year: “In Algeria, nothing that says ‘Made in Spain’ is sold”. Italy now receives the lion’s share of fuel from the Algeria refineries that Spain, for decades, was the receiver of.
– Dezcallar also criticised the fact that the president’s manoeuvre did not have the support of Congress: “This weakens Sánchez and weakens Spain’s position. Foreign policy must be a policy of consensus because it responds to the interests of the State, and the interests of the State do not change because the tenant of the Moncloa changes. And if you change, it is perfectly legitimate, but explain it and say what you gain from it”, he declared.
– Finally, the former ambassador of the North African country predicted problems with the neighbouring country: “If Morocco perceives weakness in Spain’s position, and at the moment it must perceive it, this means that Spain is going to have problems in the medium or short term. Morocco is a great country, and we must treat it with affection, but also with firmness”.

Tennis News- Wimbledon to use AI commentary – and line judges could be replaced next:
– Wimbledon might have a reputation for favouring tradition over change, but are set to follow a worldwide trend in embracing artificial intelligence (AI) at this year’s Championships. The All England Club have announced that AI commentary will be produced for their video highlights packages of next month’s tournament, in what they described as “the first step” towards computer generated commentary for live matches in the future. It is a statement move, especially considering the current debate around how the technology – including tools like ChatGPT – might impact wider society or potentially be abused.
– While Wimbledon have used AI for their stats packages and player power index for a number of years, this will be the first audio created entirely by AI. Using generative AI technology from IBM watsonx, Wimbledon will produce audio commentary and captions for all highlights videos during the Championships, which can be watched on their website and app.
– Though there are no plans to replace live human commentary, AI commentary could be a future feature for matches away from the show courts that do not currently have commentary.
– As part of the development process, tennis experts were brought in to advise on how to train the AI in the unique language of tennis and Wimbledon, including terms like “gentlemen’s” and “ladies’”. While no human commentators were consulted, AELTC Technology Director Bill Jinks admitted it would be “technically feasible” to train the AI commentary to mimic McEnroe or other famous commentator’s speaking style, as long as an intellectual property agreement was in place.
– When asked about how far AI could go at Wimbledon, including on court, Jinks said there was no risk of human umpires being replaced. However he did not rule out line judges being phased out at Wimbledon, as has been the trend on the tennis tour generally.
– In April, the men’s ATP Tour announced that human line judges will be replaced by an electronic calling system – which uses a combination of cameras and AI technology – on a full-time basis from 2025. Other tournaments, including the US Open and Australian Open, have followed suit to avoid human error, and prevent blow-up arguments over disputed calls. But line judges’ days may be numbered at SW19, as Jinks did not commit to ensuring their future.

FROM THE “WHAT THE HELL ARE THEY THINKING” DEPARTMENT
‘Really evil’- Child porn made by AI is creating a new online horror, and it can bypass current anti-porn filters:
– The newest “nightmare” on the internet is a flood of AI-generated child sex images. The AI industry “has sparked an explosion of disturbingly lifelike images showing child sexual exploitation, fuelling concerns among child-safety investigators that they will undermine efforts to find victims and combat real-world abuse,” explained the Washington Post in a report.
– What has until now been recognized as child porn, a serious crime in almost every jurisdiction, now can be created – and look realistic, the report said. “Thousands of AI-generated child-sex images have been found on forums across the dark web, a layer of the internet visible only with special browsers, with some participants sharing detailed guides for how other paedophiles can make their own creations,” the report warned. The FBI has warned that the faked images now are appearing on social media and public forums, in addition to porn sites, the report said.
– Officials from the U.S. Justice Department’s Child Exploitation and Obscenity Section confirmed that such images are illegal as they depict “minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct.” They said, it is “illegal for any person to knowingly produce, distribute, receive, or possess with intent to transfer or distribute visual representations, such as drawings, cartoons, or paintings that appear to depict minors engaged in sexually explicit conduct and are deemed obscene.”
– Child safety experts are growing increasingly powerless to stop thousands of “AI-generated child sex images” from being easily and rapidly created, then shared across dark web paedophile forums, The Washington Post reported.
– This “explosion” of “disturbingly” realistic images could help normalize child sexual exploitation, lure more children into harm’s way, and make it harder for law enforcement to find actual children being harmed, experts told the Post.
– Harmful AI materials can also re-victimize anyone whose images of past abuse are used to train AI models to generate fake images. “Children’s images, including the content of known victims, are being repurposed for this really evil output,” Portnoff, director at the non-profit child-safety group Thorn said.
– Normally, content of known victims can be blocked by child safety tools that hash reported images and detect when they are reshared to block uploads on online platforms. But that technology only works to detect previously reported images, not newly AI-generated images. Both law enforcement and child-safety experts report these AI images are increasingly being popularized on dark web paedophile forums, with many Internet users “wrongly” viewing this content as a legally grey alternative to trading illegal child sexual abuse materials (CSAM).
– Editor’s Note: Criminals can take any photo they find on the internet of a child, such as photos parents post on Fakebook, and turn it into kiddie-porn, by blending it with other, explicit images. The public is not ready for these AI powered tools! I see no possible justification for this to be permitted, although evidently big-tech disagrees. Coincidently, or not, this comes just 2 months after the UN/WHO had declared children under 18 can consent to sex, as I covered in a previous article. (https://digamextra.com/2023/04/19/digamextra-no-2518-wednesday-april-19th-2023/).
