On Monday 2 March 2009 the UK’s leading dance house Sadler’s Wells goes truly global, launching an international online dance contest. Marking the start of a four-year worldwide competition that offers an annual winner a cash prize and the chance to perform at the UK’s leading dance house, Sadler’s Wells is calling all dancers and choreographers aged over 18 to take part.

The contest builds up to a final showcase of each year’s winner in 2012.
The panel of judges made up of leading figures from across the arts, is chaired by Sadler’s Wells Artistic Director and CEO, Alistair Spalding, and includes Arlene Phillips, a judge on BBC’s Strictly Come Dancing, The Royal Ballet’s Zenaida Yanowsky, and British artist and Turner Prize winner Martin Creed. | Translation - Spanish

CHIEF EXECUTIVE’S REVIEW
In 2007/08, the Group achieved a 54% advance in adjusted operating profit to £119.6 million.
A tighter supply position for corrugated case material (CCM) and corrugated packaging during much of the financial year provided good support for our price increase programme, aimed at recovering the higher input costs we have been incurring for some time. We also benefited from the actions taken in both our activities, Packaging and Office Products Wholesaling, to improve the business mix and raise cost competitiveness.
Towards the end of the financial year, we announced a major investment project aimed at reinforcing our position as a leader in lighter-weight packaging, by giving us a significant capability in the growth segment of high-quality lightweight CCM.
The improvement in the Group’s pre-tax adjusted return on average capital employed in 2007/08 of 12.9% (2006/07: 8.7%) represents good progress towards meeting our target to exceed the Group’s estimated weighted average cost of capital of 11.5% over the business cycle. | Translation - Spanish
REVISIÓN DEL DIRECTOR EJECUTIVO
En 2007/08, el Grupo alcanzó un incremento del 54% en ganancias operativas ajustadas hasta alcanzar £119,6 millones.
Un suministro más reducido de material de caso corrugado (CCM por sus siglas inglesas) y de paquetes corrugados durante gran parte del año financiero ha sido de gran ayuda para nuestro programa de incremento de precios, cuyo objeto es la recuperación de mayores costos directos en los que hemos incurrido durante bastante tiempo. También nos hemos beneficiado de las acciones emprendidas en nuestras dos actividades, Paquetes y Venta al por mayor de materiales de oficina, para mejorar la combinación comercial y el aumento de la competitividad de costos.
Hacia el fin de este año financiero, anunciamos un gran proyecto de inversión cuyo objetivo es reforzar nuestra posición como líderes en paquetes ligeros, ofreciéndonos un gran potencial en el segmento de crecimiento de CCM ligero de alta calidad.
El incremento de un 12,9% (2006/07: 8,7%) de los reingresos ajustados brutos del Grupo en cuanto al capital medio empleado en el 2007/08 representa un buen avance hacia el cumplimiento de nuestro objetivo de sobrepasar el coste de capital medio estimado del Grupo de un 15% a lo largo del ciclo financiero. | | English to Spanish: User Manual | Source text - English
Using the steam iron system
Filling the tank before use
Make sure that the appliance is unplugged from the supply mains before filling the water tank with water. Remove the tank lifting it by the handle in the direction indicated by the arrow (Fig. 1). Pour water into the tank with provided breaker while being careful to not exceed the MAX limit. (Fig. 2)
NEVER fill the tank beyond the MAX level.
Use the provided beaker to fill the tank with tap water (hardness 15 French degrees max.) In the event of excessively hard, we suggest you use dematerialized water instead. Do not add any additives (e.g. starch dressing agent, perfume or other liquids) in the water, under penalty of immediate cancellation of the warranty.
To avoid damaging the pump, never operate the appliance without any water in the tank, even for dry ironing.
Switching on the appliance
Place the appliance on a horizontal and stables surface. Connect the appliance to the power supply, ensuring that the voltage indicated on the identification plate corresponds to your local power supply. Press the luminous power switch (14) to turn on the pump and the iron indicator lamp (7) lighted on.

Uso de la plancha de vapor
Llenar el tanque antes de usar
Asegúrese de que el aparato esté desenchufado de la toma de corriente antes de llenar el tanque de agua. Retire el tanque levantando el mango en la dirección que indica la flecha (Fig. 1). Introduzca agua en el tanque con cuidado de no sobrepasar la marca MAX. (Fig. 2)
NUNCA llene el tanque por encima del nivel MAX indicado.
Utilice la jarra proporcionada para llenar el tanque de agua (máximo 15 grados de dureza). En caso de que el agua sea demasiado dura, le sugerimos que utilice agua desmaterializada. No añada aditivos (ej. condimentos, perfume u otros líquidos) al agua; esto anularía de inmediato la garantía.
Para evitar dañar la bomba, nunca utilice el aparato con el tanque vacío, ni siquiera para planchar en seco.
Apagar el aparato
Coloque el aparato sobre una superficie estable y horizontal. Conecte al aparato a la toma de corriente, asegurándose de que el voltaje indicado en la placa de especificaciones corresponde al de la toma de corriente. Pulse el interruptor luminoso (14) para encender el indicador de luz (7) de la bomba y de la plancha.
