Michael Jackson, King of Pop - Dies at 50 PDF Print E-mail
Michael Jackson, the pop music and dance innovator who died yesterday at 50, achieved worldwide fame rivaling that of the Beatles and Elvis Presley before his own behavior tarnished his image in later years.

Jackson was pronounced dead at 2:26 p.m. local time at the UCLA Medical Center in Los Angeles, said Lt. Fred Corral of the Los Angeles County coroner’s office. An examination begins today to determine the cause of death, he said in an interview.

The singer, who was preparing for his first series of concerts in more than a decade, appeared to have suffered a cardiac arrest in his home, UCLA medical center officials said in a statement. His personal physician, who was there at the time, tried to resuscitate Jackson, as did paramedics and doctors later at the hospital, according to the statement.

Los Angeles Fire Department paramedics responded to a 911 call around 12:21 p.m. in the 100 block of Carolwood Drive in the wealthy Bel-Air area of Los Angeles, Captain Steve Ruda said in an interview. Jackson wasn’t breathing when they arrived. Medics treated the singer before taking him to the hospital.

As a singer, songwriter, dancer and self-proclaimed “King of Pop,” Jackson “transfixed the world like few entertainers before or since,” according to the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, which inducted him in 2001. “He has enjoyed a level of superstardom previously known only to Elvis Presley, the Beatles and Frank Sinatra.”

 
Confidence in Tenerife PDF Print E-mail
Tenerife's tourism chief has delivered an upbeat message to the public and private sector despite a depressing set of visitor figures.
First vice-president of Tenerife Cabildo, José Manuel Bermúdez says everyone must continue to work side by side in order to maintain confidence in our product.
He says the latest tourism figures which generally show a substantial decrease on 2008 are a direct reflection on what is happening in the global economy.
There are, however, some bright points, such as a major increase in the Nordic market and a better performance for the south of Tenerife during April as opposed to the north of the island.
In April, Tenerife recorded a total of 420,738 visitors which is down 0.89 per cent on April of 2008. The figures cannot be a direct comparison as this year, Easter fell in April whilst last year, it was in March.
The April figure included 126,571 Spanish tourists, an increase of 5.4 per cent on the same month last year. The foreign market at 294,167 was down 3.4 per cent. Within this, the UK market was down 8.9 per cent at 129,683, the German market down 9.2 per cent at 52,613 but the Nordic market was substantially up on April 2008 at 28,840 total, a rise of 17 per cent.
The overall figure of 420,738 visitors included 326,243 in the south, 2.9 per cent up, and 78,081 in the north, down nine per cent.
In the first four months of 2009, compared with the same period of 2008, the island received 1,596,558 tourists which is 11.41 per cent down. Within this, the number of Spanish visitors was down 11.53 per cent and the foreign market decreased 11.38 per cent.
In April, the statistics show there were 2,938,071 overnight stays, 13 per cent less than in the same month of the previous year. Occupancy was 52.9 per cent on average, 12.8 per cent down, and the average length of stay was 6.98 days, 0.97 per cent down.

Tenerife in fashion spotlight PDF Print E-mail
Monday, 01 June 2009 12:57
Special event in Madrid will once again help to place Tenerife's abundance of fashion talent on the national and international map.Tenerife Fashion is an organisation promoted by the Cabildo to harness together the fashion expertise of local designers and budding fashion companies.
Madrid was the venue for the unveiling of the season's collections for this autumn and winter and involved eight local fashion firms. As well as attracting the interest of the mass media, it is hoped the collections will feature in a range of glossy magazines with the designs emulating from Tenerife being displayed next to those of international designers.
Our fashion designers certainly did themselves proud with a whole range of very unusual concepts and ideas.
Marcos Marrero and María Diaz, who make up the designers behind the M & M range, showed their wonderful collection of evening gowns with rich weavings, feathers, crystals and silks, epitomizing romanticism and sensuality. Their inspiration came from the movies.
Bylu featured ten themes, including owls, dogs, angels, New York and pop art in a number of materials such as Lycra, canvas and cotton. Many of their outfits have been designed using silk screens and the colours were stunning in reds, khaki green, turquoise and sand.
Pi 3 14 cater for men, women and children and concentrate on comfort and functionality.
Other collections were inspired by trips to exotic places and the designers drew on ingenious ideas such as the use of semi-precious stones and glass beads mixed with silks and velvet as an echo of the Nomads.
The companies showing in Madrid also included FAscini di Pietra, Roselinde, Magdala and Izca. VTL Tenerife, the label of footballer Victor Añino, covered the whole spectrum from underwear through to trousers, jackets and accessories and a sports line called Second Skin.

Satisfaction guaranteed at the Rod Stewart concert PDF Print E-mail

His concert at the Costa Adeje golf course was such a success that Rod Stewart prolongued its length to an enthusiastic audience of 15,000, somewhat of a record for a Tenerife concert attendance.

Singing many of his best-known numbers, he was accompanied by prestigious violinist J Anna Jacoby, saxophone player Katia Rieckermann and David Palmer on drums who gave an outstanding performance.

And when twenty-five soccer balls were launched by Rod into the packed crowd, they went wild. He finished off his concert by saying goodbye through his famous song 'Sailing', with the whole audience joining in.

Jordi Espulgas, director of Tenerife production company Canaries Live Sun Festival announced that "Rod has offered us a huge concert that has left everyone fully satisfied, besides which he happily spent three days in Tenerife as a mini-break with his family, visiting different parts of the island, enjoying local food and strolling along Fañabé beach in peace and quiet. In his farewell at the airport he said that he had even contemplated extending his stay for one week but couldn't as he had business matters to attend to in the U.K."

Without doubt, Tenerife and the Canaries have raised their profile through this concert as a suitable venue for international stars. The event was widely covered by prestigious national and international media, receiving notable coverage on Spanish Television and Antena3 at national level, with full local media coverage during the weekend of the concert.

Canaries Live Sun Festival would like to thank everyone, people and businesses alike, that have helped to make this event possible, including the Canary government, police security, Red Cross, Adeje Voluntary Firemen, and the mass media etc., who have all contributed to a superbly professional service that, in short, ensured the total success of the event.

Now that this concert is behind them, Canaries Live Sun Festival is beginning to think about who will come to Tenerife next, with the expectation of surprising everyone with another high profile name.
