May is just
ENORMOUS !!!
Sport lovers can sit back and enjoy the race for the title, visit the best sports
bars in the region just read on and find out how good the sports line up is
and then get down to any of the sports bars listed here for an unbelievable
atmosphere and not to mention the great drink deals on offer!
With Spurs slipping up yet again recently
you can now say well do they really deserve
to be in the Champions league next season?
With Harry Redknapp being considered for
England manager maybe things are just all a
little too much to handle and the emphasis
has been diverted elsewhere instead of on
the job that needs finishing! Spurs still have
the FA cup to win so there is a lot at stake it
could be all or nothing for this historic top
London team.
Manchester United seem to have the title
in their hands yet again with 5 points clear
but with Villa – Everton – Manchester City
– Swansea and Sunderland in the run in
anything can happen. City on the other
14
hand are facing Norwich – Wolves – United
– Newcastle and QPR so in my opinion there
is not much in it other than City to face the
inform Newcastle who have come back
again as the outsiders contending for 4th
place. Possibly the 30th April will be the
decider but City still relying on United to
slip up somewhere and that really is quite
unlikely, wouldn’t you say?
Other massive games include Barcelona
v Real Madrid on 21st April, FA Cup final
on 5th May (come on you Spurs) 13th May
being the last day of the season is going to
be the biggest day of the Football season as
it will on be going to the wire in many cases
and then 19th May is the Champions league
final.......will Chelsea make it
there??? Who knows?
Rugby fans have much to enjoy
with the Heineken Cup also
on 19th May and the Super
league packed out during May
so don’t forget to support Tad
and the crew at any of the
three famous rugby bars “The
Yorkshire Pride”.
To end a great month of sport
and the end of the football
season watch Amir Khan
challenge for the title belt
when he meets again in the
big re match against Lamont
Peterson in Las Vegas. The first
fight was noted as one of the
best fights of 2011 and went
12 rounds, it ended with a
controversial split decision in
favour of Peterson. So don’t
miss this will surely be another
belter!

The Perfect Summer
Sangria
Sangria is a wine punch typical of Argentina, Spain and Portugal. It
normally consists of wine, chopped fruit, a sweetener, and a small
amount of added brandy. In the case of fruits, they are chopped or
sliced such as orange, lemon, lime, apple, peach, melon, berries,
pineapple, grape and mango. A sweetener such as honey, sugar, simple
syrup, orange juice is added. Instead of brandy, other spirits may be
added. Because of the variation in recipes, sangria’s alcoholic content
can vary greatly. The ingredients in sangria vary, particularly in the type
of fruit used, the kind of spirits added (if any), and the presence or lack
of carbonation.
White wine can be used instead of red, in which case the result is called
sangria blanca or, as in Argentina, clerico. Some recipes that use heavier
reds can be lightened by mixing
a bottle of white in the mix. In
some parts of Northern Spain,
sangria is called zurra and is
made with peaches or nectarines

dominant ingredient and acts as a • 16 fl. oz sparkling apple juice

La sangría es un tipo de
ponche de vino típico
de Argentina, España y
Portugal. Normalmente
consiste de vino, fruta
picada, un endulzante y una
pequeña cantidad de coñac
añadido.
En el caso de las frutas
como naranja, limón, lima,
manzana, melocotón, melón,
frutas del bosque, piña,
uva y mango, son picadas
o cortadas en rodajas. Se
añade un endulzante tal
como miel, azúcar, almíbar
o zumo de naranja. En vez
de coñac, se puede utilizar
otras bebidas alcohólicas.
Debido a la variación en
las recetas, el contenido
alcohólico de sangría
puede variar enormemente.
Los ingredientes de la
sangría también varían,
particularmente en el tipo
de fruta utilizada, el tipo de
alcohol utilizado (si se pone)
y la presencia o ausencia de
bebidas gaseosas.
Se puede utilizar vino
blanco en lugar de tinto, en
cuyo caso el resultado se
denomina sangría blanca o,
como en Argentina, clerico.
Algunas recetas que utilizan
vinos tintos más pesados,
pueden estar mezclados con
una botella de vino blanco.
En algunas partes del norte
de España, la sangría se
llama zurra y esta hecha con
melocotones y nectarinas.
En la mayoría de las recetas,
el vino es el ingrediente
principal y actuá como base.
En algunas regiones de
Portugal, también se añade
canela con el endulzante.
La preparación consiste en
cortar la fruta en rodajas
finas o pequeños cubos,
después mezclar todos los
ingredientes excepto el
hielo y las bebidas gaseosas.
Después de varias horas o un
día completo en una nevera,
para dar tiempo a los sabores
de las frutas de mezclarse con
el resto de los ingredientes,
se añade el hielo y cualquier
ingrediente de ultima hora y
listo para servir. Una versión
de sangría sin alcohol esta
hecha de uvas de vino, agua
carbonatada, la escencia de
limón y caña de azúcar.
• 26 fl. oz vino tinto seco
• 16 fl. oz de jugo de
manzana con gas
• 4 cucharadas de ginebra
• 4 cucharadas de limón con
sabor a vodka
• 2 cucharadas de azúcar
• El jugo de 1 naranja grande
• El jugo de 1 limón grande
• 1 naranja pequeña, cortada
en rebanadas finas
• 1 limón pequeño, en
rodajas finas
• 1 lima pequeña, cortada en
rebanadas finas

La Alhambra
de Granada
La Alhambra, denominada así por sus muros de
color rojizo («qa’lat al-Hamra’», Castillo Rojo),
está situada en lo alto de la colina de al-Sabika,
en la margen izquierda del río Darro, al este de
la ciudad, frente a los barrios del Albaicín y de la
Alcazaba.
32
Su posición estratégica, desde la que
se domina toda la ciudad y la vega
granadina, hace pensar que existían
construcciones anteriores a la llegada
de los musulmanes. Su conjunto,
completamente amurallado, posee
una forma irregular limitado al norte
por el valle del Darro, al sur por el de
la al-Sabika, y al este por la Cuesta del
Rey Chico, que a su vez la separan del
Albaicín y del Generalife, situado en el
cerro del Sol.
Se tiene constancia por primera vez
de ella en el siglo IX, cuando en 889
Sawwar ben Hamdun tuvo
que refugiarse en la Alcazaba
y repararla debido a las luchas
civiles que azotaban por
entonces al Califato cordobés,
al que pertenecía Granada.
Posteriormente, este recinto
empezó a ensancharse y a
poblarse, aunque no hasta lo
que sería con posterioridad,
ya que los primeros monarcas
ziríes fijaron su residencia en
lo que posteriormente sería el
Albaicín.
A pesar de la incorporación
del castillo de la Alhambra al
recinto amurallado de la ciudad
en el siglo XI, lo que la convirtió
en una fortaleza militar desde
la que se dominaba toda la
ciudad, no sería hasta el siglo
XIII con la llegada del primer
monarca nazarí, Mohamed
ben Al-Hamar (Mohamed I,
1238-1273) cuando se fijaría la
residencia real en La Alhambra.
Este hecho marcó el inicio de
su época de mayor esplendor.
A Yúsuf I (1333-1353) y
Mohamed V (1353-1391) les
debemos la inmensa mayoría
de las construcciones de la
Alhambra que han llegado a
nuestra época. Desde la reforma
de la Alcazaba y los palacios,
pasando por la ampliación del
recinto amurallado, la Puerta
de la Justicia, la ampliación
y decoración de las torres,
construcción de los Baños y el
Cuarto de Comares, la Sala de
la Barca, hasta el Patio de los
Leones y sus dependencias
anexas. De los reyes nazaríes
posteriores no se conserva
prácticamente nada.
De la época de los Reyes
Católicos
hasta
nuestros
días podemos destacar la
demolición de parte del
conjunto
arquitectónico
por parte de Carlos V para
construir el palacio que lleva
su nombre, la construcción de
las habitaciones del emperador
y el Peinador de la Reina y el
abandono de la conservación
de la Alhambra a partir del siglo
XVIII. Durante la dominación
francesa fue volada parte de
la fortaleza y hasta el siglo XIX
no comenzó su reparación,
restauración y conservación
que se mantiene hasta la
actualidad.
Granada’s
Alhambra
The Alhambra’s Moorish palaces were built for the
last Muslim Emirs in Spain and its court, of the Nasrid
dynasty. After the Reconquista (reconquest) by the
Reyes Católicos (“Catholic Monarchs”) in 1492, some
portions were used by the Christian rulers. The Palace
of Charles V, built by Charles V, Holy Roman Emperor in
1527, was inserted in the Alhambra within the Nasrid
fortifications. After being allowed to fall into disrepair
for centuries, the Alhambra was “discovered” in the
19th century by European scholars and travelers, with
restorations commencing. It is now one of Spain’s
major tourist attractions, exhibiting the country’s
most significant and well known Islamic architecture,
together with 16th-century and later Christian building
and garden interventions. The palace complex was
designed with the mountainous site in mind and
many forms of technology were considered. The park
(Alameda de la Alhambra), which is overgrown with
wildflowers and grass in the spring, was planted by
the Moors with roses, oranges and myrtles; its most
characteristic feature, however, is the dense wood
of English elms brought by the Duke of Wellington
in 1812. The park has a multitude of nightingales
and is usually filled with the sound of running water
Alhambra is a palace and fortress complex located
in Granada, Andalusia, Spain. It was constructed
during the mid 14th century by the Moorish
rulers of the Emirate of Granada in al-Andalus,
occupying the top of the hill of the Assabica on the
southeastern border of the city of Granada.
from several fountains and cascades. These are
supplied through a conduit 8 km (5.0 mi) long, which
is connected with the Darro at the monastery of
Jesus del Valle, above Granada. Despite long neglect,
willful vandalism and some ill-judged restoration, the
Alhambra endures as an atypical example of Muslim art
in its final European stages, relatively uninfluenced by
the direct Byzantine influences found in the Mezquita
of Córdoba. The majority of the palace buildings are
quadrangular in plan, with all the rooms opening on to
a central court; and the whole reached its present size
simply by the gradual addition of new quadrangles,
designed on the same principle, though varying in
dimensions, and connected with each other by smaller
rooms and passages. The Alhambra was extended by
the different Muslim rulers who lived in the complex.
However, each new section that was added followed
the consistent theme of “paradise on earth”. Column
arcades, fountains with running water, and reflecting
pools were used to add to the aesthetic and functional
complexity. In every case, the exterior was left plain and
austere. Sun and wind were freely admitted. Blue, red,
and a golden yellow, all somewhat faded through lapse
of time and exposure, are the colors chiefly employed.

Aries: A wily Mercury enters to ensure that you are ready to do
business and that you get all the backing that you need to make
it happen. When Uranus transits mid May you begin to realise
that you are being positively directed to make even more of the
situation then as you first saw it. Luck and sheer determination
win through, so take control of your power and just go for it!
Taurus: Greatly influenced by the energy of the Sun at this
time of the year, the heart and soul are rewarded for keeping
everything together under difficult circumstances and negative
opposition from those who do not know just what you are capable
of. You have been misjudged by someone, and could take revenge;
however it is far better that others see what you can do.
Gemini: Beware that an innocent request means more than
immediately meets the eye, since all is not what it seems to
be right now. The Venus retrograde sees love coming from an
unexpected source, so be prepared to open your heart when
the time comes; although this is very bad time to make any
commitments you may live to regret; it is a time to put magic on
the agenda.
Cancer: Stored anger may very well find
its way to your door as there is currently a
conflict of interests, brought about by an
intense Saturn and the wayward actions
of an inspiring Pluto. Beware of making
decisions that you very well may live to regret, but
do set plans in motion because no matter what, you
should have your escape route clearly defined and
your wits about you!
Leo: Balance has to be restored if you
are to see any necessary changes getting
a chance in getting off the ground.
Cosmic actions between Mars in Virgo
and Chiron in Pisces put you in the mood
to investigate all opportunities even
though you may well not like what you see; and this
may force you to take appropriate actions that are
against your principles.
Virgo: This is a busy time for you as you
are partnered by the negative energies of
a warring Mars. Do not accept everything
for the sake of it, redesign any ground
rules and take control at all odds. There
was never a better time to show who’s
boss, but stay connected because any shifts in
energy could shake the foundations of all that you
hold dear, and send out the wrong message.
Libra: Scheming Saturn brings both
light and wisdom to a project and gives
you a real insight into your next moves.
In taking control you are using your
own intelligence to nip something well
and truly in the bud, before someone
really does get hurt in the process. Though not of
your making, rules are rules, and the likelihood of
making everyone happy in this situation is rapidly
fading.
Scorpio: Mercury conjuncts with Jupiter
in your opposing sign of Taurus. There
comes a chance to turn nothing much into
something. You are backed by the positive
energies sent to bring abundance and
an everlasting peace into play; you just
have to see to it that you keep your temper until
the time is right, even though others involved may
seem to be losing the plot for some reason.
Sagittarius: Let this be a time that you
finally let your hair down, as you step
into the role as host for a forthcoming
event with style and grace. With Jupiter
in cahoots with Taurus there comes a time
when second best isn’t an option, and you
alone can pull out all of those stops to bring in a
touch of class to the occasion, as celebrations are on
the cards and you are more than ready.
Capricorn: Pluto sees you taking
defensive measures now that things
are going a bit pear shaped. Close
examination will reveal that it wasn’t
your fault, but that you did see that the
writing was on the wall. In all honesty it
is clear that you were waiting for things to improve
all around; and that somebody’s ulterior motive
has sadly put paid to your own wishes, hopes and
desires.
Aquarius: Waiting resolutely for things
to get better you will experience that
first things have to get worse before any
changes can be made. It is true that the
leopard finds it hard to change his spots.
As the truth seeker of the horoscope you
are currently under the pressure of Saturn in Libra,
and unsure whether it is easier to spill the beans
and be true to yourself, or to just walk away.
Pisces: Inspiring Chiron links you with
reality to make any achievements you
feel that you have to make. The sheer
indecisive actions of late have done
nothing to help a situation that begs for
your control. You have had to do what you
did because in your heart of heart’s there is remorse
and forgiveness, but remember that hurting you is
both unforgiving and out of order.

Facts about the Sun
Your skin is the largest organ in your body and also
the most versatile. Just think! Your skin is responsible for holding everything else together. EPIDERMIS
From head to toe it protects all the muscles, bones
and all other organs. What does it protect them
from? Sun, injury, variance of air temperature, and
infection come to mind immediately. In addition it
has the job of storing body fat, producing vitamin
D and regulating body temperature. Skin is made
up of three layers known as the epidermis, dermis
and subcutis. The epidermis is the outer layer and is
made up of squamous cells, which sit on basal cells
which are layered over melanocytes. Melanocytes
are the cells that produce melanin which causes
them to darken as the first defense against sun
damage. The dermis is comprised of blood vessels,
lymphatic vessels, hair follicles and glands which
work together to protect the epidermis from air
36
temperature changes and drying out. The subcutis
layer is defense for the other organs.
Benefits of a Suntan
Astronomers tell us the Sun is a star while most people understand it is Earth’s life source. The primary
source of energy for all life, this energy created by
the sun is harnessed in a variety of forms.
Photosynthesis is probably the most familiar to
people. It is the method whereby plants capture
the energy of the sun and convert it for the benefit
of all life forms. Man harnesses this energy by
consumption of plants or consumption of plant
eating animals for the fueling of the systems that
comprise his body. Plants and trees are burned to
release this energy for heating and cooking. In the
far distant past plants died and over a period of time
broke down to form petroleum, natural gas and coal
which have many uses in our present society. Fossil
fuels are simply stored sunlight from the distant past.
Vitamin D production in the skin is the result of UVB
rays. It is not recommended that the sun be the only
source for your daily requirements since skin cancer
is a real concern with overexposure. Accepted daily
recommendations are 200 IU (international units) for
everyone up to age 50. After age 50 the requirements increase to 1000 IU with 2000 IU being the
maximum in a day for anyone. It is important that
seniors be made aware of the increased need since
the tendency is to spend less time in the sun as you
age. Taking too much Vitamin D can be as dangerous
as not enough. Other sources for Vitamin D without
taking supplements are salmon, mackerel, sardine,
eggs, fortified milk and cod liver oil. If you become
concerned about your Vitamin D level have your
doctor perform a blood test.
How often do you think of weather as a benefit of
the sun? The energy provided by the sun causes
the atmospheric circulation because of the uneven
heating of the earth. This circulation then causes the
wind and precipitation, both necessary in the life
cycle of plant and animal life. Wind is considered one
of those forms of energy production that researchers have focused on. For years they have also been
working on harnessing solar energy for our use.
Sun Tea Solar thermal heat has been used in various
ways for centuries. Man has built houses facing
south to collect the heat passively and created
photovoltaic or solar cells to change sunlight into
electricity. John Herschel on expedition to Africa in
the 1830’s used a thermal collector box for cooking.
And many remember the wonderful smell of clothes
that are dried on a clothesline.
But let us not forget one of the tastiest benefits of
the sun, sun tea. Being in the South, we definitely
couldn’t survive without our sweet tea, so thank
goodness for the Sun!
Remember sunscreen, UV blocking clothing, UV
blocking sunglasses, umbrellas and extreme caution
during prime sun time 10AM to 4PM will make your
time in the sun more FUN. Checking the UV index
will provide you with information regarding the
type of UV rays you need to prepare for while out in
the sun. We care about you and your loved ones, so
please check out our UV tanning index and have fun
out in the sun!
The UV Index provides a daily forecast of the
expected risk of overexposure to the sun. The Index
predicts UV intensity levels on a scale of 0 to 10+,
where 0 indicates a minimal risk of overexposure and
10+ means a very high risk
How to Make
Perfect Paella
Perfect paella. Have
you ever really
experienced it?
Probably not, unless
you’ve been to Spain.
Truly spectacular paella, must have a thin layer of rice (no thicker than
a half-inch), it must feature a few other ingredients on top (but not
so many as to smother the rice), and it must have been cooked and
served directly in a real Spanish paella pan. Lastly, if the bottom layer
of rice yields a golden caramelized crust, called socarrat, you know
you’ve reached the pinnacle of paella greatness!
1. The Rice: The rice should be medium grain. Spanish rice is rounded
and short; it absorbs liquid very well, and it stays relatively firm during
cooking. Those qualities make it ideal for paella, where the rice grains
absorb flavor from the liquid. the rice should be dry and separate
when done, not creamy like risotto. The most appreciated variety of
Spanish rice is bomba, but you’ll have fine success with the widely
available medium-grain rice sold by Goya. Arborio is an acceptable
substitute; long-grain rices, however, are not.
2. The Pan: A true paella pan is wide, round, and shallow and has
splayed sides. It does not have a lid. It has two looped handles
and may dip slightly in the middle so the oil can pool there for the
preliminary sauteing. The shape of the pan, which is called either
a paella or paellera, helps ensure that the rice cooks in a thin layer.
The Valencians say that the cooked rice should be only as thick as
“un ditet,” or the width of one finger (about 1/2inch). The key is to
maximize the amount of rice touching the bottom of the pan because
that’s where the flavor lives. For that reason, paella pans grow in
diameter rather than in height.
3. The Heat Source: Try to find a heat source that can accommodate
the whole paella pan. Depending on the configuration of your
burners, you’ll need to straddle the pan over two burners or set it on
your largest burner. Either way, you’ll have to move and rotate the
pan to distribute the heat. Or you can cook the paella outdoors on a
large gas or charcoal grill, or even over a wood fire, which is how it’s
done at paella competitions in Spain.
4. The Sofrito: A sauteof aromatics, called the sofrito, provides the
flavor base. The components of the sofrito vary by region. Tomato,
onion, and garlic are a popular trio for the sofrito. Some cooks use
paprika, herbs, or a dried sweet red pepper. The technique is simple;
saute the vegetables over medium heat until they soften and the
flavors meld, and the water from the tomato has evaporated. This
mixture should be thick enough to hold its shape in a spoon.
5. The Cooking Liquid: A flavorful liquid cooks the rice, while
imbuing it with additional character. If you don’t have a homemade
stock on hand, improvise one with the ingredients in the paella. For
paella with shrimp, for example, simmer the shells in salted water
for a quick, flavorful stock. If you use canned stock, choose a low-salt
one. You can also use water, as many home cooks do in Spain. Almost
every paella recipe calls for the liquid to be infused with saffron,
which contributes color as well as a subtle background flavor to the
rice.
It isn’t difficult to make a fantastic paella (though getting the toasty
socarrat to appear on that bottom layer does take a little practice), One
of the most common mistakes is to overload the pan with too many
ingredients, thereby suffocating the
rice. When the rice in a paella is cooked well, nothing else matters-not the
chicken, not the clams, not even the artichokes.
These other ingredients do have a role to play in the pan, and that is to
provide flavor to the rice. For great paella, add them with restraint, and
let the rice take center stage.

The month of MAY
May is the fifth month of the year in the Julian and Gregorian Calendars and one of seven months
with the length of 31 days. May is a month of autumn in the Southern Hemisphere and spring in
the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore May in the Southern Hemisphere is the seasonal equivalent of
November in the Northern Hemisphere and vice versa.
No other month begins or ends on the
same day of the week as May in any year.
The month May was named for the Greek
goddess Maia, who was identified with the
Roman era goddess of fertility, Bona Dea,
whose festival was held in May. Conversely,
the Roman poet Ovid provides a second
etymology, in which he says that the month
of May is named for the maiores, Latin for
“elders,” and that the following month (June)
is named for the iuniores, or “young people”

Calpe
getting around
A big reason to visit Calpe is undoubtedly the beautiful beaches with beautiful sands and crystal clear
water. The resort of Calpe is dominated by the huge Peñon de Ifach, an enormous Gibraltar like rock
which separates the two main beach areas of Playa la Fossa and Playa Cantal Roig.
The Peñon de Ifach is a Natural Park. It is 332m high and
extends for a kilometre out to sea. You can climb to the top
from the information office at its base but to do so in Summer
heat is quite an achievement!
If you approach from the coast road from the north you’ll be
confronted with a selection of large supermarkets and even
larger apartment blocks and hotels running adjacent to the
coast. These cater for holidaymakers who come to spend their
days on the 900m long beach of Playa la Fossa (also called
Playa Levante).
Playa de la Fossa is a first class beach with golden sand and
excellent facilities including several children’s play areas, tennis
courts and even a bowling green. It has been awarded a Blue
Flag.
The majority of the restaurants along Playa la Fossa are geared
towards Spanish tourists with local fish and rice dishes very
popular. the occasional British establishment appears with
its typical fare which strikes a nice balance as far as the resort
is concerned. There is a pedestrianised promenade (Paseo
Infanta Cristina) the full length of the beach with a number of
cocktail bars which help generate a lively nightlife scene.
On the other side of the Peñon is a smart marina followed by
narrow, rocky beach called Playa Cantal Roig. A promenade
(Paseo Infanta Elena) runs from here past a Roman fish farm
and Roman baths as far as another superb beach at Playa
Arenal-Bol. The end of this 2000m long beach is pretty much in
the old town. Just follow c/Valencia for two minutes and you’re
in the Plaza Mayor. Both of these beaches have also been
awarded Blue Flags. The old town of Calpe is worth a wander
around to see some historical buildings and squares. There’s
a street market every Saturday in the town and a flea market
every Wednesday. In the summer months there are crafts fairs
in the old town. Another worthwhile visit is to the daily fish
auction at La Lonja in the port.
These take place every weekday afternoon at 5pm. The salt
flats just inland from Playa Levante date back to Roman times
and are an important location for many species of migrating
birds so don’t forget your binoculars.
