Morera: Strategy Camps PP is eligible for the reelection even from prison.

Valencia, July 28 .- The group's spokesman Les Corts Commitment, Enric Morera, today criticized the "lack of ethics of the PP" to point out that his strategy is to Francisco Camps eligible for the re-election as president of the Generalitat even from prison. "

Morera has relied on a statement to the words of the PP parliamentary spokesman, Rafael Blasco, commented yesterday, STO gold, that in his personal opinion, Camps should remain in office "but was convicted" by the Guertel case. "

For the deputy of commitments, the "internalization of corruption" in the PP is so great that come to believe over justice. "

According Morera, PP strategy regarding 'case Guertel' focuses on "minimize and manipulate" a possible sentence, star trek online gold, to Camps in the matter of the suits, "that even they themselves are as likely," and on the other hand, " everything possible to delay the process by allegations of illegal financing crimes and election crimes. "

"The PP will now face uncovered, has resigned to prove the innocence of their leaders and are dedicated to trying to play with the law, earthrise credits, so that the impact of the sentences as possible are expected in the election results," he added.

Congress debates a 'mix' for energy pact that envisages the closure of the Garonne in 2013.

The subcommittee for the analysis of the energy strategy for the next 25 years working on a forecast to 10 years which envisages that renewable energies by 2020 doubled its production and installed capacity, while nuclear increase 5% over its role in production, although its installed capacity will reduce by a similar amount due to the closure of the central Santa, STO gold, Maria de Garona (Burgos).

The text, which has the support of the PSOE, details a 'mix' only until 2020, not until 2035, because the proposal seeks a consensus to meet European targets for a 20% reduction in emissions, improve energy efficiency in another 20% and 20% of its energy from renewable sources.

The document, which, sto energy credits, was obtained Europa Press, is being discussed by the groups even have been closed without an agreement, expected to culminate on Wednesday with the foresight to develop a comprehensive document that the House vote in September. The main slope is the fringe position of the PP, which has always made it a condition to the Pact that the, ffxiv gil, plant will not close Burgos.

The text stipulates that the size of the energy sector, as measured by final energy consumption will be "virtually the same" in 2020 than in 2009, as economic growth will be offset by advances in energy conservation and efficiency.

25% increase

Of installed capacity

The paper presents a model in which the installed capacity will increase by 25% in 2020, to 126 072 megawatts (MW), of which half, 64 441 MW, will be renewable (as opposed to current 39 499 MW), with 35 000 MW wind power, 16,662 MW hydro, 6735 MW to 3807 solar photovoltaic and solar thermal. By contrast, that of nuclear will be reduced by 5.8% to 7256 MW.

Regarding nuclear weapons, increase their weight by 5% in the next ten years, up to 55 600 MW, while its weight will reduce from 17.7% to 14.1% due to technological mejroa predictable and not to increase facilities. It should also be noted that in relation to primary energy matrix, will grow a similar percentage to the 14 490 ktoe, including in this forecast the closure of the central Santa Maria de Garona in 2013.

It also raises the final electricity demand reaches 313 052 gigawatt hours (GWh), 28.3% more than in 2009, while gross production will grow by 32.6% to 393 260 GWh, which will be covered in a 35.5% from renewables, "to be in this sector (electric) where there are more alternatives and a highest state of maturity," according to the groups.

According to the draft, the rest of the 'mix' electricity will have a more balanced composition than today, with a "slight increase" of natural gas, 0.4% to 37.8% with average operating hours through combined cycles of 3,460 per year.

Up 35%

The price of gas.

However, the model provides a baseline scenario of gas price increase of 35%, from EUR 17 per MWh in 2009 to 23 euros in 2020. It also provides a 85% increase in the price of CO2, from 13.5 euros per tonne to 25 euros.

Under these assumptions, the cost of electric generation combined cycles could exceed 80 euros per MW in 2020 but could rise to 100 euros in a scenariohigher prices. Faced with this prospect, the Government believes that wind technology is competitive "and to this day" and the other renewables will be more competitive than fossil fuels in 2020.

50% Reduction

Of nuclear costs.

However, the findings are accompanied by a document which contains an estimate forecasts on the evolution of the expenses which reveals a progressive reduction and limited in almost all sources except solar, which will fall to 50% in 2020, would still be higher than wind power.

The draft states that the cost of renewables will tend to decline at a rate "that is greater when more comprehensive the support they receive in their early stages of development, but such support must be sufficiently" flexible and reasonable "to prioritize the most profitable for consumers.

Still, warns that the theoretical potential of renewable energy electric power development would reach 387 GW, of which 225 GW solar array, 110 wind farms, 17 hydro, biomass and biogas, 16, 15, wave energy and geothermal 3, for what will always be necessary sources of support.

The fuel is gone.

The production of coal will lose weight, from 12.4% in 2009 to 8% in 2020. While the share of fuel almost disappears, "leaving only the production of the fuel core of mainland systems," according to the Eejcutivo.

Also, electrical interconnections will increase progressively to the rrence threshold of 10% of installed capacity.

An Australian researcher in the Canary Islands pose a monitoring program to patients 'polypharmacy'.

Charlie Benrimoj Australian researcher presented today to the Minister of Health of the Gobierno de Canarias, Mercedes Roldos, the initiative 'Get', a project to monitor patients 'polypharmacy' which has as its primary objective to demonstrate and evaluate the impact of the intervention of pharmacies and in a second phase, which involves introducing this service savings for the administration.

The president of the College of Pharmacists of Las Palmas,, star trek online credits, Carlos Munoz, his counterpart of Guipuzcoa, Miguel Angel Gastelurrutia, and Professor at the University of Granada Fernando Martinez participated in the same match in the capital of Gran Canaria, where he presented the document to the counselor.

They argue that most of the population that is over 65 years takes more than five medications and many as eight or nine, are, tera gold, called polypharmacy patients, and more drugs more possibilities of interaction, mistake in the administration and less adherence to treatment.

The intervention of the pharmacist in pharmaceutical care of this group has demonstrated that brings health benefits and savings for the administration, as in Canada, USA, Switzerland, Portugal, United Kingdom and, recently, Germany.

Reduction of drugs

To undertake this study in, star trek online gold, Las Palmas has been necessary to pre-pilot phase (Murcia and Granada) and pilot (Cadiz), from which it follows that the average age of the patient polymedicated, of the 139 surveyed, is 75 years and takes an average of 9 drugs.

However, after a month of tracking down prescription medications because the pharmacist to detect interactions and duplications that brought to the attention of the doctor, make a prescription to change the most appropriate treatment.

In addition, informing him about the drugs the patient takes the prescribed though, a phenomenon that adds to the fact that when a patient stops taking a drug is usually important, ie the chronic problem, such as tension and not dealing with a sore spot.

Monitoring involves an awareness work with the patient and a facet of communication with the doctor, who, according to preliminary data, accepts between 60 and 70 of the suggestions made by the pharmacist and is thankful, because pharmacies do so a work it is impossible to make from the health center. 50%

Spending

Of every 2,500 patients who can attend a pharmacy, between 300 and 400 are polypharmacy. This is a group that, at general level, drink between 40 and 50 per cent of pharmaceutical expenditure in the Canary Islands in total approximately 600 million euros per year.

The first consequence of the implementation of this system is to improve patient health and economic impact, but in two years, moreover, its incidence is detected in the emergency room and hospital admissions, for both down, assure Benrimoj, adding that pharmacies are the point that you can collect the information of the requirements are carried out in different settings.

The investigation was conducted through 35 pharmacies studied 10 patients each, 350 in total, for six months, although this requires the involvement of the Ministry of Health, whose owner, Mercedes Roldos, showed great interest. SAVINGS

As an example of savings will mean for the administration, the Australian expert quote if out of ten drugs reveals that two are not needed at a cost of 15 euros each month, the annual savings, always with the health benefit as a premise, will be about 360 euros per patient per year.

"The proximity of the pharmacist must take" as well as their preparation, can assure the Australian expert, who believes that the Spanish pharmaceutical management model is "perfect" to provide these services to the population.

The project, whose research phase will cost about 250,000 euros, will also be held in Cadiz, Guipuzcua, Las Palmas, Castellon and Alicante and Zaragoza.

It is supported by the Ministry of Health, the Council of Pharmaceutical Colleges, integrated in the Pharmaceutical Care Forum, promoter of the initiative, and the Autonomous Communities in which to develop.

Parliament on Tuesday approved the Law for the conversion of the Playa de Palma.

The Parliament unanimously approved next Tuesday, in the extraordinary, the law proposal of measures for the conversion of the Playa de Palma in a second extraordinary plenary session, while on Friday, and with the legal framework in hand, will be approved at a meeting The conversion plan leading this important acting and will be presented publicly on August 2.

For this reason, the manager of the proposed reform of the Platja de Palma, Margarita Najera, revealed that the action plan aims to rehabilitate the area a "change of business model, since in his view, the current tourism model is "in decline." For this purpose, will undertake a thorough reform of the hotels to enlarge the rooms, especially those who only have about 11 square meters, and incorporate new services such as spas, with the main objective of attracting other tourists greater purchasing power.

It is also intended that once this area is reformed, the average daily expenditure per tourist is 135 euros, compared with 65 today. In addition, another objective is that the average daily price per double room is 65 euros, taking into account that, currently, there are hotels that offer very low prices to attract a certain profile as a tourist.

Moreover, through the rules will impact on sustainability, to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, for which would create an emissions-free space in this area.

Thus, the hotels will have to make an investment process to reduce its emissions by half, while at the same time, residential buildings will undergo a functional and esthetic rehabilitation, as well as energy efficiency.

The new law prevents undue growth

Among other things, the Act provides that in matters of land, the conversion plan would prevent unwarranted and unsustainable development of new urban growth in the Playa de Palma, and set the integrated urban rehabilitation as a prrred course of action before the new growth.

Moreover, states that the housing can only increasenew land if the need justifies settle residents affected by transactions in its original scope relocatable or loosening operations.

In terms of building hotels, residential and equipment, notes that the Plan should focus on integrated rehabilitation of the park built against the possible construction of new buildings.

In addition, the legislation states that the conversion plan can be set replanting, exchange and transfer of urbanistic use to remove all or part of, buildings deemed obsolete or inadequate, whatever profitable use to which they are intended, accordance with the objectives to be attained with the ordinance proposed by the Plan.

Moreover, the Act states that, in order to facilitate the achievement of its objectives, the plan may define specific areas, giving reasons for doing so, in which costly transfers of immovable property shall be subject to the exercise of the rights of first refusal by the Consortium of the Playa de Palma. Thus, the exercise of these rights may fall as much about the transmission of bare ground, as also on the built.

With regard to energy savings, the law requires buildings to reduce by 50 percent environmental and climatic impacts. With regard to mobility and public transportation, the Law states that the Plan should establish the measures of change and related policy instruments for reconversion of existing models of urban transport travel and reduce power consumption and emissions in order to promote more sustainable patterns of mobility and environmental quality.

Parliamentary questions

On the other hand, also will take place next Tuesday another extraordinary plenary session which addressed a total of six questions l Govern, among which are those that make the PP parliamentary spokesman, Pastor Antoni on that investment will be affected in Islands by the cut announced by the Government, and Deputy 'popular' Antoni Serra on savings that has led to the restructuring of the Regional Department recently completed by the chairman of the Government, Francesc Antich.
