Welcome to ITS FOOTBALL DAY, a podcast where two lads give their unfiltered opinions on the game of football. Despite three games postponed, there was still a lot of goals and a lot to talk about. Heung-Min Son came off the bench to score a hattrick against Leicester who remain rock bottom of the table. Arsenal are still flying having a lovely ol' kickabout with the boys and we talk about whether Fulham could actually stay in the Prem this year and stop the yo-yo motion. As well as this we have the usual FPL chat and the distasteful look ahead to the International break. There will be no episode next week as Ryan will be sunning himself in the Algarve.... but its only the Nations League Enjoy!Socials;TWITTER; https://www.instagram.com/itsfootballday_INSTAGRAM; https://www.instagram.com/itsfootballday_/FACEBOOK; https://www.facebook.com/ItsFootballDayXI/LINKTREE; https://linktr.ee/ItsFootballDayArtworkPhil HowellInstagram; https://www.instagram.com/everytimeishoot/

La música suena en el coche familiar de los Sobral, camino del Algarve. Un viaje repetido cada verano que va tallando de esa manera tan doméstica la vocación de un niño lleno de sensibilidad y ganas de vivir. La vida de Salvador Sobral corre todavía al ritmo de ese coche, con la urgencia de alguien que es consciente de haber recibido el premio de una vida extra. “Por la enfermedad del corazón tengo una intensidad en la vida distinta de la gente, aunque la verdad es que soy así desde niño”, confiesa Salvador en Madrid Directo. Sidecars dan el salto a los grandes recintos con 'Trece': "Nos da mucho vértigo, pero tocaba hacerlo” La misma intensidad que le despierta de noche pensando en alguno de sus proyectos. “Suelo levantarme al mediodía, pero sé que eso va a cambiar”, dice Sobral, que espera su primera hija para octubre. “Mi sueño ha sido siempre tener una hija, pero con todo lo que ha pasado me parecía imposible. Entonces me enamoré perdidamente de una parisina – la actriz francesa Jenna Thiam- que también quería niños y ahora viene Aïda”. TMDHTM20220916_0018 El bebé llega con la bendición de ‘Sal', el nuevo trabajo en forma de EP que le ha dedicado su padre. Cuatro canciones de su repertorio anterior: Sal Isso e Aquilo, Tristeza dos Dois y Estrada dividida (compuesta por su hermana Luisa). Y la inédita ‘Canção para Aïda'. “Mi fama ahora es controlada. La gente viene a mis conciertos porque le gusta la música” Energía y sensibilidad a partes iguales. La dualidad se repite en el oficio de Sobral, capaz de disfrutar igualmente actuando en un concierto multitudinario y tocando en un bar ante 100 personas. Lo sigue haciendo, pero de forma clandestina, porque si no sería imposible, explica el artista. Harry Styles volverá a Madrid en 2023 Sobral disfruta con esa doble piel. “Un día quiero ganar siete Grammy haciendo una canción con Harry styles y otro hacer mi música jazz. Y otro quiero ser Rosalía...”, cuenta el artista entre risas. Ganar en el festival de Eurovisión de dio fama mundial, pero esa “fama de ser famoso, ya paso”, asegura Sobral. “Mi fama ahora es controlada. La gente viene a mis conciertos porque le gusta la música”.

“Arrogância”, “desprezo”, “desconecção”, são algumas das críticas apontadas ao PSG. Uma tempestade mediática e política que já levou o treinador do famoso clube de futebol parisiense a dar a mão à palmatória e a lamentar a “piada de mau gosto”. Uma resposta em jeito de piada de Christophe Galtier sobre as viagens frequentes do clube em jacto privado e as gargalhadas de Kylian Mbappé acabaram por provocar uma onda de indignação. Avião, comboio ou carro à vela? Uma resposta em jeito de piada de Christophe Galtier, treinador do paris Saint-Germain, sobre as viagens frequentes do clube em jacto privado e as gargalhadas da estrela do PSG Kylian Mbappé provocaram a indignação geral. “Arrogância”, “desprezo”, “desconecção”, são algumas das críticas apontadas ao famoso clube de futebol parisiense. Uma tempestade mediática e política que já levou o treinador do PSG a dar a mão à palmatória e a lamentar a “piada de mau gosto”. No plano político as reacções multiplicaram-se, com os governantes a pedirem ao PSG para levar o tema a sério. Sobre a responsabilidade de figuras públicas e as novas tendências alimentares, a RFI ouviu Richard Tavares, responsável pelo financiamento e gestão de programas e projectos de investigação, na área das alterações climáticas e ambiente, na Agência Europeia do Clima, Infra-estruturas e Ambiente, em Bruxelas.  Não se deveria esperar mais responsabilidade por parte de pessoas que ocupam estes lugares? “Sem dúvida que a postura durante a entrevista foi bastante triste, de todo não profissional, nem consciente da sociedade e da realidade. Deveria, sobretudo, num momento destes ou não dizer nada ou simplesmente dar uma desculpa mais razoável. Sobretudo que, hoje em dia, a situação é evidente em termos de eventos extremos, alterações climáticas, apenas os cépticos não aceitam. Pessoas conhecidas e em postos que são claramente exemplos, sobretudo, para os mais novos, deveriam dar um exemplo de responsabilidade e de civismo.” Mesmo depois de Christophe Galtier ter vindo a público dar a mão à palmatória e de ter lamentado aquilo que ele chamou de “piada de mau gosto”, o mal acaba por estar feito? "Exactamente. Há muitos anos que em português se diz que as desculpas se evitam. Neste caso, deveria ponderar o que diz durante as conferências de imprensa para evitar este tipo de reacções, que são reacções extremamente correctas da sociedade, mas acima de tudo, para evitar dar a ideia de que, no meio de futebol e numa esfera de certa forma elevada, não existe uma consciência que deveria ser exemplar, quer ambiental, quer de acções mais moderadas neste tipo de deslocações." Alargando os horizontes, ainda esta quarta-feira, o presidente do senado francês, Gérard Larcher, chamou a atenção para a “crise energética” que se vive e que será agudizada no Inverno. O governo pede esforços às empresas para a redução do consumo de energia.  Olhando para o parque empresarial francês é possível essa sobriedade energética? “Eu diria que será um esforço extremamente elevado segundo o parque industrial e, sobretudo, empresarial. Não diria tanto das grandes empresas, mas mais das pequenas e médias empresas que já são entidades que têm um esforço alargado actualmente a nível económico e energético. Mais esforços serão necessários, mas, pessoalmente, não sei se serão suficientes para diminuir o consumo energético como é esperado ou desejado. E, de facto, haverá impactos quer na produção, quer mesmo a nível da própria rentabilidade financeira e estabilidade das empresas.” Esta sobriedade energética não deveria ser pensada mais alto? Não passa também por mobilizar toda a população? “Nos mais simples actos, utilizar um smartphone, um computador ou um simples aparelho em casa requer electricidade, energia. O consumo tem aumentado significativamente nas últimas décadas. De facto, uma moderação do consumo tem que ser em larga escala, mas infelizmente no seio nacional e mesmo a nível europeu, a componente empresarial e industrial são, digamos, o maior consumidor energético e, de facto, os governos tendem sempre a identificar quem consome mais. Para a população, não diria medidas de redução ou limitativas da parte do governo, mas sobretudo no aspecto do civismo e da educação, em particular, nos mais novos e mais jovens para um consumo mais moderado ou mais consciente actualmente e no futuro.” Inquéritos levados a cabo pela OCDE em Junho, em 20 países ricos, mostram que 60 a 90% das pessoas inquiridas compreendem que as alterações climáticas são provocadas pela actividade humana. Todavia, poucos se dizem dispostos a sacrificar o seu conforto, a reduzir o consumo de carne ou a limitar a utilização do carro, do aquecimento ou do ar condicionado em casa.  O que é que é preciso fazer para mudar comportamentos? “Sobretudo, diria que eventos extremos são a maior alerta para as situações, para a realidade. Temos visto actualmente que os alertas são lançados não apenas europeu, mas a nível mundial. Os hábitos têm que ser mudados, o consumo tem que ser mais racional e, de facto, a sociedade, diria, está consciente a nível de boa vontade, mas em acções do dia-a-dia ainda não está pronta a realmente ter o shift e mudar radicalmente.  Cada vez mais vemos quer na publicidade, quer nos média que consumo é um sinal de bem-estar. Infelizmente, os grupos que promovem a consciencialização ainda são poucos, limitados e são vistos como grupos extremos em medidas que poriam em causa o conforto generalizado.  Diminuir em um ou dois graus a climatização não provoca grande diferença em casa. Mesmo nas gerações anteriores, estava-se com frio em casa, vestia-se mais uma peça de roupa. Hoje dá-se mais importância ao conforto individual do que à própria sociedade em termos gerais.” Acabamos de ter um verão escaldante na Europa, um dos mais quentes da história da Europa ocidental, com fogos florestais de grandes dimensões, rios e ribeiros secos ou com baixos níveis de água e temperaturas extremamente elevadas. É impossível ignorar o impacto do aquecimento global do planeta. Porém, a resposta europeia às alterações climáticas parece que surge a conta-gotas e que vem a reboque os problemas? “Sobretudo porque, hoje em dia, os governos também são bastante direccionados aos aspectos económicos. Ter uma alteração radical, quer nas medidas quer nas acções, implicaria grandes impactos não só apenas, por exemplo, no crescimento económico de um país, mas em toda a cadeia da actividade quer empresarial, quer industrial e, de facto, um governo não quer pôr em causa ou impactar sectores extremamente importantes da sua economia e do próprio país.” No entanto, ao não impactar esses sectores, está a impactar todo o futuro de um país e de uma forma mais lata de um planeta? “Mas também, infelizmente, a própria sociedade ainda não tem uma consciência clara e de acção imediata para provocar ou implicar este tipo de alterações.  Vemos que o uso de carros privados do parque automóvel ainda é extremamente elevado, porque as pessoas preferem o conforto que ter uma consciência. É um aspecto ligado a ambos, quer do governo que, de certa forma, por questões de popularidade, de votos ou económicas, cede muito facilmente a pressões.  Vemos, por exemplo, a Exxon, uma grande empresa petrolífera, que já estava consciente das alterações climáticas desde a década de 1970. Saiu recentemente um relatório que demonstrou este conhecimento e consciência, mas nada foi feito porque, infelizmente, na sociedade generalizada dá-se muito mais importância ao aspecto económico e financeiro do que ao aspecto ambiental e do futuro do nosso planeta.” Como é que comer menos carne pode salvar o planeta?  “Tudo tem a ver com peso e medida. A sociedade ocidental, digamos assim, desde algumas décadas, sobretudo depois da Segunda Guerra Mundial, teve um aumento exponencial do consumo, não apenas de carne, mas de peixe e de outros recursos e alimentos.  Sobretudo a carne, é um tipo de alimento que tem implicações ambientais muito elevadas na cadeia de produção, desde a produção dos cereais até a criação dos animais e mesmo depois de todo o processo.  De facto, hoje em dia, a sociedade, infelizmente, é uma sociedade de sobre-consumo e aí um consumo mais moderado de carne e também de peixe seria um meio que, a médio e longo prazo, contribuiria para a redução de emissões.  Claro está que esta redução também tem impactos no sector agro-alimentar, que depois teria que ser compensado de outra maneira por esta diminuição.” Um dos produtos que está na moda é o abacate. Biológico ou de agricultura intensiva, este superalimento é rei nas mesas veganas e vegetarianas. Todavia a produção do abacate é catastrófica a nível de consumo de água, por exemplo. Deixar de comer carne e passar a comer abacate também não é a solução?  “É preciso ter em atenção que a produção específica de abacate por hectare, comparando com outras produções de frutos, não é das que consome mais. Mas, nestes últimos anos, sobretudo a nível europeu, por exemplo, em Portugal, tem tido um aumento exponencial da área coberta de produção de abacate.  De facto, na produção por hectare o consumo não é tão elevado, mas se formos a ver depois, no total, aí sim, um aumento exponencial provoca um aumento ainda maior do consumo de água que não estava previsto e nem acredito que tenha sido planeado ou estimado antes da própria plantação.  Infelizmente, determinadas tendências alimentares contribuíram para a importação de determinadas espécies e alimentos originários de outros continentes, o abacate, mas não só, a quinoa e outros super-alimentos que, de facto, estão a alterar completamente a paisagem agrícola, sobretudo no sul da Europa.  Uma produção intensiva tem logo impactos ambientais. Estou certo que nos próximos anos, se a tendência de secas mais extremas se instalar, como dizemos no seio da comunidade climática, em termos de eventos extremos, de facto, será necessário repensar toda a estrutura agrícola em regiões como no Algarve.” Esta importação destes super-alimentos para cultivo no sul da Europa, também acontece porque esta região sofre com o aquecimento global do planeta e neste momento tem temperaturas mais elevadas para estes cultivos? “Exactamente, mas seria também muito importante a nível das autoridades e a nível do planeamento agrícola e do território, não a curto prazo, mas a médio e longo prazo, ter estratégias de adaptação às novas condições de temperaturas extremas e de condições hídricas mais limitadas em períodos de seca, que poderão ser cada vez maiores. E aí sim, fazer um estudo de ciclo de vida de todo o processo para verificar se, de facto, vale a pena um investimento massivo neste tipo de produtos ou, sobretudo, uma vez mais, investir numa educação da sociedade para um consumo mais moderado de diferentes alimentos, não apenas da carne, como referimos antes, mas também desde super-alimentos que, uma vez mais, o aumento do consumo é resultado de tendências ou de movimentos vegan ou de outros, e que deveriam ser sobretudo moderados e não levados ao extremo, como vemos em algumas situações.”

The best way to win over a developer is to make their job simpler. The release of Nuxt 3 promises an even better developer experience than its former versions. That's music to every developer's ears. Who doesn't want faster rendering? Daniel Roe, framework architect at Nuxt Labs has been working to get Nuxt 3 production ready for a stable release. In addition to DX improvements, once N3 is out of release, you can expect hybrid rendering, less JavaScript, and a cross-platform framework that can be used with pretty much any cloud service. This Nuxt release is casting a wide net. Daniel and the team wanted the framework to be suited for everyone from hobby bloggers to enterprises. But the biggest win might be for e-commerce sites that need speed, performance, and personalization.  In this episode, Chuck and Robbie talk to Daniel about the features of Nuxt 3, improving the developer experience, and his family vacation to Algarve, Portugal.  Key Takeaways [00:38] - An introduction to Daniel Roe. [03:29] - A whiskey review - Laphroig Lore. [11:20] - The new features in Nuxt 3. [19:16] - The best path to convert projects to Nuxt 3. [32:47] - The target audience for Nuxt 2 and Nuxt 3. [45:31] - Daniel's holiday in Portugal . [51:49] - David's side project in Magic Regexp. Quotes [12:21] - “Some of the things that Nuxt 3 brings, well, it's been rewritten from the start, so it's given us an opportunity to do what we really wanted to do with Nuxt. And to learn from some of the mistakes we made for Nuxt 2 and adapt Nuxt for a new world. That sounds a bit crap, but more and more I think we're looking to take advantage of different kinds of hardware for rendering HTML.” ~ @danielcroe [13:18] - “Nuxt 2, out of the box, is a bare minimum package. I did some checking on this. The cold start for the server was 300 milliseconds. With Nuxt 3, it is three milliseconds.” ~ @danielcroe [38:48] - “I always like using suppliers that win me over because they have the best of whatever it is. They're able to meet my needs. Whether that's experience or price point or whatever it is. But they've won me over. I don't have to stay with them. I'm not forced or coerced into it. I didn't make an early choice, and now I'm reaping the whirlwind and having to pay the price for it. I'm with them because I want to be. That's the best scenario. You have the power to choose. You're choosing the platform you feel is the best.“ ~ @danielcroe Links Daniel Roe LinkedIn Daniel Roe Twitter Nuxt Vue Bill Bryson Durham University Bill Bryson Library Laphroig Lore Laphroig Pringles Vite Webpack TypeScript React Discord Jest JavaScript Remix Astro Solid Redwood JS Tom Preston Warner DigitalOcean Vercel Netlify Sunderland Manchester United Eric Cantona Old Trafford  Vuejs Amsterdam Magic Regexp Regexper Anthony Fu David Tai Connect with our hosts Robbie Wagner Chuck Carpenter Ship Shape Subscribe and stay in touch Apple Podcasts Spotify Google Podcasts Whiskey Web and Whatnot Top-Tier, Full-Stack Software Consultants This show is brought to you by Ship Shape.

Aconteceu no dia 6 de Junho de 2021. BIOGRAFIA Maria João Pereira Neto é investigadora nas áreas de História e Sociologia e é docente universitária desde 1983.

Holy moly this is an exciting episode to share! So much so, we just pushed the rest of our podcast (and pramvel) schedule so we could record in real-time and talk through everything that's been happening the past two weeks.What started out as a casual scouting mission to two areas in Portugal (Silver Coast and the Algarve) quickly turned into conversations with sentences like, “are we moving to Portugal??” and “is this really happening, are we doing this!?”Have a listen to this episode and maybe you're in a similar situation in your life and are about to make a big decision? Even if you aren't, we hope this one was at least verrrry entertaining.

Raue Klippen mit tosenden Wellen, jede Menge Sonne und Entspannung: Heute geht es nach Aljezur, einem Auswanderer-Hot-Spot an der portugiesischen Algarve. Anna Wengel, freie Journalistin bei TRAVELBOOK, hat dort gelebt und Aljezur ist für sie bis heute ein zweites Zuhause. Sie verrät, welches Highlight man auf jeden Fall besuchen sollte, wo es ihrer Meinung nach die besten Restaurants gibt und was man am besten macht, wenn es mal regnet. Viel Spaß beim Zuhören!

De dood kwam eerder dan de droom. Ik herinner het me nog als de dag van gister.Samen met Wytze was ik op bezoek bij Pake en Beppe (mijn opa en oma, voor de niet-Friezen) en raakten we in gesprek over reizen.Een onderwerp wat veel ter sprake komt, want met ons als digital nomads in de familie kun je er zowat niet omheen.Tijdens het drinken van een kop thee en het eten van een zelfgebakken cake door Beppe, vertelde Pake ons dat hij zo graag nog eens naar de Algarve had gewild.En hij zei ‘had', want op dat moment had hij door zijn ziekte niet meer de kracht om een nieuwe bestemming te ontdekken.Je zag de spijt in zijn ogen. Hoorde de spijt in zijn stem.... wordt vervolgd in de podcastaflevering.Wil je meer van me zien?

Hello and welcome to the Enchanted Ears Podcast, where we discuss anything and everything Disney. Before we tell you all about our Adventures by Disney trip to Portugal, it's time for a little Disney News! While we were gone, a lot has happened. San Diego Comic Con for one, which had a few major announcements. The biggest of these was that Daredevil will be getting an 18 episode first season on Disney+. The biggest absence of an announcement though was regarding phase 6 of the MCU, which we assume will be reserved for D23. Tokyo DisneySea debuted its new night show “Believe! Sea of Dreams” which replaced Phantasmic and features projection mapping on the Hotel MiraCosta. Disney also had its earnings call. The parks are making money, but the streaming services are losing money. During the call, we learned that on December 8th, Disney+ will increase its cost $3 if you want to continue to watch your content ad free or you can continue to pay $7.99 but will have to watch with ads. Mickey's Not-So-Scary Halloween Party stared on August 12. New this year is a Max Goof wearing a Powerline costume. Phew! That was a lot of news! Okay, we're ready to dig in to our Adventures by Disney trip to Portugal. Adventures by Disney is essentially group travel with a pre-set itinerary and the Disney-level of service. The Portugal trip begins in Porto, then moves to the capital city of Lisbon and finishes up in the Algarve. In this podcast, we discuss our favorite parts of the trip, our least favorite parts of the trip, the value of having the guides vs booking it yourselves, and give you a step by step of the experience. Then we candidly tell you whether or not we think it was worth it. When doing a trip like this, it's easiest to book through a travel agent since there are a lot of little things you need to do ahead of time. We always book through Becky Ginther at Castle Dreams Travel. Check her out at beckyg@castledreamstravel.com. As always, thank you so much for listening! Don't forget to check us out on Facebook and Youtube or submit a question/topic for us to discuss on a future episode or support us on Patreon. Have a magical week!

"Am 6. Juli 2010 fliegt ein Paar mit der gemeinsamen 21 Monate alten Tochter von Stuttgart aus an die portugiesische Algarve. Was nach einem friedlichen Familienurlaub klingt, endet jedoch tragisch. Fünf Tage später sitzt nur der Mann wieder im Flieger nach Hause. Seine Frau und seine kleine Tochter sind tot. Ermordet. Von ihm selbst."

We begin this episode with a look-back at Fulham's first two matches of pre-season in Portugal against Nice and Benfica. Dom gives us his view from the Algarve, and we analyse whether the Benfica game should ring any alarm bells, after a haphasard defensive display from the Whites. In part two, we discuss Manor Solomon's controversial transfer, which has been all but confirmed after he was spotted in Portugal watching the matches with the team.

Portugal, longe da guerra e costumeiro refúgio de estabilidade, é um dos países onde o regresso do turismo é mais visível. Porque somos a economia europeia que mais depende dele, a expansão fulgurante do turismo contribuiu para recuperação económica que o país viveu depois da crise financeira e da dívida. O reverso desta dependência é que concentra cada vez mais o escasso investimento empresarial em Portugal, secando oportunidades noutros sectores com maior valor acrescentado e concentra emprego e recursos num sector que não se destaca pela inovação e capacidade salarial. Qual será o futuro do turismo em Portugal e como se destacará? Pela qualidade ou pelo preço baixo? No último episódio antes das férias, conversamos com José Theotónio. Natural de Beja, fez o ensino superior na Universidade Católica, onde deu aulas até à viragem do século. Administrador de várias empresas, foi adjunto do Secretário de Estado das Finanças e Chefe de Gabinete do Secretário de Estado do Turismo durante os governos de Cavaco Silva.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Benötigt wird zunächst ein in Salzlake eingelegter Mälzer, anschließend ein kandierter Merget und zuletzt ein heiß angebratener Sternekoch (Gattung Neuner) in vierter Generation, importiert aus Portugal. Die drei Zutaten vermengen und nach und nach durch Zugabe von Vino Tinto von allen Hemmungen befreien. Nach der Hälfte der Zeit den Neuner der Länge nach auseinandernehmen und währenddessen die angelieferten Rotbarben sauber filetieren. Anschließend Algarve und Tirol zu je gleichen Mengen im Podcaststudio verteilen. Auf höchster Stufe 180 Minuten aufzeichnen lassen, sodass ein fulminant-feuchtfröhliches Ergebnis herauskommt. Am Ende den König der Meere und den König der Sonne wieder trennen, weil zusammen nicht genießbar. Beim Anrichten aufpassen, dass es in den Kopfhörern nicht zu sehr knallt. Nach Verköstigung werden Sie gelernt haben: Die angehobenen Preise sind gerechtfertigt, hier ist nichts kopiert, das Menü wurde mit Raffinesse und mithilfe eines durchdachtes System entwickelt und bleibt uns in seiner Purheit für immer erhalten. Guten Appetit!

Em abril, o numero de turistas e de dormidas superou os valores anteriores à pandemia. O turismo impulsionou o crescimento do PIB acima da média europeia, mas nem tudo são rosas. O sector tem falta de mão-de-obra em áreas essenciais como a limpeza, atendimento e cozinha. Como se ganha mal e os horários são muito duros, a solução pode passar por recrutar imigrantes para o verão. Neste episódio, conversamos com a jornalista Conceição Antunes.

Entre el siglo VIII y el XV tuvo lugar un proceso en la península ibérica que la historiografía conoce como Reconquista. Consistió en la recristianización de la península tras la invasión musulmana del año 711. Conforme fue avanzando esta reconquista fueron naciendo reinos y señoríos en el norte que de un modo intermitente pero continuo avanzaron hacia el sur. Poco después de la invasión apareció un primer foco de resistencia en las montañas asturianas. Un grupo acaudillado por un noble visigodo se levantó contra el gobernador musulmán de la zona y le derrotó. Ahí surgiría el reino de Asturias que, con el correr del tiempo, se transformaría en el reino de León. De León nacerían las coronas de Castilla y Portugal. Más al este, en los Pirineos apareció otro foco a mediados del siglo VII. Carlomagno, el rey de los francos, creo una marca fronteriza en la vertiente sur de los Pirineos en la que aparecieron dos reinos, el de Pamplona que se convertiría en el de Navarra, y el de Aragón. En el extremo oriental de la cordillera se fueron formando una serie de condados con el de Barcelona a su cabeza. Los condados catalanes y el reino de Aragón terminaron uniéndose, conformando de este modo la corona de Aragón ya en el siglo XII tras el matrimonio de Petronila de Aragón y Ramón Berenguer IV, conde de Barcelona. Al tratarse de un proceso tan largo, de casi 800 años, la reconquista recorrió distintas etapas, tuvo momentos de avances rápidos y otros de estancamiento en unas fronteras que siempre fueron móviles y siempre se desplazaron hacia el sur. Como hubo dos focos claramente diferenciados la reconquista avanzó a distinta velocidad en el este y en el oeste. Lo hizo más rápido en el centro y el oeste de la península, especialmente a partir de la desaparición del Califato de Córdoba en el año 1031. Los cristianos se aprovecharon de la fitna en Al Ándalus, el estado de guerra casi permanente en el que vivían los musulmanes hispanos. Los castellanos, que se habían separado del reino de León a mediados del siglo XI, volvieron a unirse a él en 1230 y fueron los primeros en entrar en el rico valle del Guadalquivir, algo que terminaría dándoles una ventaja fundamental. Reyes de Castilla como Fernando III el Santo o Alfonso X el Sabio consolidaron la presencia castellanoleonesa en la zona interrumpiendo los avances a finales de siglo. Eso dejó con vida a un pequeño emirato, el de Granada, que sobrevivió hasta 1492, cuando fue conquistado por los Reyes Católicos. Los portugueses, separados de León en el año 1139, prosiguieron su avance por la costa atlántica hasta llegar al Algarve un siglo más tarde concluyendo así su reconquista. Eso les empujó hacia África y la navegación atlántica. En Aragón sucedió algo similar, aunque con características propias que hicieron de la corona de Aragón un reino muy especial. Aragoneses y catalanes mantuvieron desde el principio sus propias instituciones. En el siglo XIII reconquistaron las islas Baleares y Valencia, que se constituyeron como reinos aparte. A finales de aquel siglo ya habían concluido la reconquista peninsular y se lanzaron hacia el Mediterráneo. La Reconquista es, en definitiva, un proceso histórico apasionante que sirve de base para la conformación de dos grandes reinos europeos: España y Portugal, que terminarían siendo de capital importancia en la historia universal con la llegada de los castellanos a América y de los portugueses a la India a finales del siglo XV. Para abordar este periodo, largo pero muy interesante, nos acompaña hoy en La ContraHistoria David Porrinas, doctor en Historia por la Universidad de Extremadura especializado en historia medieval.

Become a Patreon supporter at www.themidnighttrainpodcast.com   This week we're taking the train across the pond for another creepy adventure. That's right, we are doing one of our creepy episodes! It's been a while so we figured it was time. This week we are headed to what some people say is one of the top scariest countries in the world! Not only that…we know we have some awesome listeners here. This week we are headed to creepy Portugal! We are gonna try our best to find the coolest, creepiest places for you guys. I'm just going to assume there's going to be a bridge in here someplace.  So without further Ado.. Let's fucking rock and roll!!!   So first up we're gonna do a little history lesson. Will keep it somewhat sorry and sweet since if we got into the complete history of a country of the age of Portugal, it would be an entire episode on its own. To get there history of this country we went to the source, portugal.com and an article written by Goncarlo Costa.    The history of Portugal starts many ages ago, when the so-called Iberian tribes inhabited the territory of today's Portugal. Then, in the beginning of the first millennium BC, Celtic tribes invaded and intermarried with the local Iberians, creating what is now known as the Celtiberians.   The Lusitanians, who inhabited the interior region of Portugal since the Iron Age, are considered the forefathers of the Portuguese nation. This is why today we have names like Lusophone, someone who speaks Portuguese, or Luso-American, a Portuguese American person. They were known for successfully fending off the Roman armies until the death of their leader, Viriathus, known as a hero in Portugal.   The tribe was considered a worthy adversary by the Romans, so much that they named the province of the whole territory of modern Portugal (south of the Douro River) and part of western Spain after them.   The Romans left various works, such as baths, temples, bridges, roads, theaters and statues; some of them are still found in different parts of the country.   This lasted until the Barbarian invasions, when Germanic tribes migrated to various parts of the Roman Empire. In Portugal, the territory became controlled by the Germanic in the 5th century. The Kingdom of the Suebi controlled Galicia and the North and Center of Portugal, while the Visigothic Kingdom controlled the rest of the Iberian Peninsula, including the rest of Portugal, until eventually conquering the Suebi and, consequently, the whole of Iberia. This is when the rigid class structure appeared in the country, with a Nobility and Clergy getting more and more political and social power.   In the 8th century, the Islamic Umayyad Caliphate invaded the Iberian Peninsula from the North of Africa. Al-Andalus, the Islamic name for the Peninsula, became a part of the Caliphate, and Portugal with it. The Portuguese kept lots of things from their Muslim past, like many of their words, architecture and the famous ‘azulejos'.   The Christians held on in the North of the Peninsula, creating the Kingdom of the Asturias. This was until the Reconquista, when they reconquered the lands from the Moors, the Muslims.   In this Kingdom, at the end of the 9th century, a county based in the now north of Portugal was established, the County of Portugal. The county grew in power and, at the end of the 11th century, a Burgundian knight named Henry, who was fighting in the Reconquista, was crowned as ‘Count of Portugal' and merged it with the County of Coimbra.   Henry's son, Afonso Henriques, proclaimed himself King of Portugal in 1139 with Guimarães as its capital. This city remains known until this day as the “Cradle of the Nation' by the Portuguese.   However, it was only in 1179 that a papal bull officially recognized Afonso I as king. The Reconquista continued with the Algarve, the south of the country, finally being conquered in 1249, and Lisbon becoming the capital in 1255. Since then, Portugal's land borders have remained almost unchanged, being considered one of the longest standing borders in Europe.   The Kingdom of Portugal remained very important in Europe's (and especially Iberian) politics, waging several wars against Spain, creating an alliance with England (the longest standing alliance in the world, lasting until today) and starting the “Age of Discovery”.   In this Age, the country built a vast empire, having territory all over the world, from South America to Oceania. They started by exploring their coast and adventuring into the Moroccan coast, hoping to continue the Reconquista to the North of Africa. Then, the Portuguese sailors started to adventure into the open sea, when they discovered the islands of the Canaries, Madeira, Azores and Cape Verde. Subsequently, the Portuguese explored the coast of Africa, setting trading ports, and tried to discover the maritime route to India, which they did in 1498, under the explorer Vasco da Gama.   They continued to explore and look for trade around the world, from Africa, passing through Arabia, and reaching Japan, setting several outposts, many of them having developed into colonies later on. In 1500, they reached South America and started the colonization of Brazil.   The Empire started to decline, however, when the Dutch, English, and French got in the game. They started to surround or conquer the scattered Portuguese trading posts and territories, diminishing their power. On the Battle of Alcácer-Quibir, in 1578, Portugal lost its king, becoming part of a dynastic union with Spain that lasted until 1640, when it finally gained its independence again.   After that, the country never became the great power it once was. It lost several colonies (including its largest one, Brazil) and trade routes, it saw its capital being destroyed by an earthquake in 1755 and it was occupied during the Napoleonic Wars.   From then on, Portugal was a minor power in Europe, having just some colonies in Africa and Asia and never becoming an economic powerhouse.   Then, in 1910, due to corruption, dissatisfaction with the several Kings and the loss of claimed African lands to the English, the monarchy ended and a Republic was created. Fiercely secular, to the point where it was antichurch, filed with corruption, government instability and near to bankruptcy, the regime came to an end with a military coup in 1926.   A military dictatorship was installed and then, a fascist-like regime, the ‘Estado Novo' (‘New State'), headed by António de Oliveira Salazar. This period was marked by authoritarianism, lack of freedom and, from 1961, by the Portuguese Colonial War.   All of this ended when, in April 25th 1974, the Carnation Revolution happened, carried out by the Armed Forces Movement (Movimento das Forças Armadas – MFA), a movement of young left-leaning captains of the Portuguese Armed Forces. With the Revolution, democratic reforms were made and the first free elections with multiple parties happened, as well as the independence of all of Portugal's colonies.   It also started the PREC (Processo Revolucionário Em Curso – Ongoing Revolutionary Process), a period when conservative and left-leaning forces inside the MFA confronted each other, marked by political turmoil, violence, instability, and the nationalization and expropriation of private lands. It came to an end on the 25 November 1975, when the MFA moderates appeared as the main force.   Nevertheless, revolutionary achievements were not forgotten, with the Constitution pledging until this day to realize socialism, as well as declaring extensive nationalizations and land seizures as irreversible, many, however, now overturned.   Nowadays, Portugal is one of 15 most sustainable states in the world and considered the third most peaceful. It has high living standards and a good economy. It was a founding member of NATO, the Organization for Economic Co-operation and Development (OECD), the European Free Trade Association (EFTA) and the Community of Portuguese Language Countries. It entered the European Economic Community (now the European Union) in 1986 and is one of its fiercest supporters, even having produced a European Commission President.   Ok so that's a brief…incredibly brief mini history of Portugal. Really the take aways are…super old, plenty of things happened to make the place creepy over that many years. So let's see what creepy stuff Portugal has to offer!   What better way to start than with a sanatorium! Valongo Sanatorium to be exact. The construction of the Mont'Alto Sanatorium began in 1932. Due to the appearance of a large number of people who had contracted tuberculosis, there was a need to expand the facilities, and these expansion works were completed in 1958. construction of these hospital units were carried out in high altitude places, due to the purity of the air, and also because they were away from the populations to avoid the effects of contagion. The sanatorium only operated for a short period, having been inaugurated in 1958 and closed in 1975, after which it entered a profound state of disrepair. Due to its dimensions, it is considered one of the most imposing buildings of its type in Portugal.Its building is large, with an area of ​​approximately 88,000 m², having been built with a view to housing about 300 patients. The building was designed by the architect José Júlio de Brito , who was also responsible for other prominent structures in the city of Porto, such as the Coliseu or Teatro Rivoli . The sanatorium complex, which occupied nine hectares, also included a school, a laundry room, a water reservoir, and a chapel dedicated to Our Lady of the Sick.    The installation of the Sanatorium in Valongo was part of a phase in the history of health in Portugal, during which the government undertook the construction of several specialized establishments to combat tuberculosis, a disease that was ravaging the country at the time. This period began in 1899, with the foundation of the National Institute of Assistance to Tuberculosis, which began the construction of several sanatoriums in different parts of the national territory. In 1930, efforts against tuberculosis were renewed in the north of the country, with the creation of the Assistance to Tuberculosis of Northern Portugal by António Elísio Lopes Rodrigues, and at that time, planning began to build a sanatorium that would house the sick in that region, who had lower economic resources.  Serra de Santa Justa was chosen, where the air was healthier, in addition to being isolated from urban centers, in order to reduce the risk of contagion.   Shortly after, the Sá family donated a plot of land in Serra de Santa Justa, allowing the construction of the building, whose works began in 1932.  However, the works were suspended due to lack of funding, having been resumed due to the support of the local populations.  On July 5, 1940, ATNP began building the Casa de Nossa Senhora da Conceição, to support the children of the sanatorium's patients. According to the Diário Popular of 3 January 1956, the finishing works and equipping of the sanatorium were already under way, and it was expected to be completed during the following year, and that it would have a capacity for 350 beds.  However, the works were only completed in 1958.  Another reason for the delay in the work may have been the opposition by the Companhia das Minas de São Pedro da Cova to the construction of the building, because it was being installed inside an area destined for coal mining, a few kilometers away from the mines.  However, at the time of the sanatorium's inauguration, mining was already entering its final phase, ending up closing in 1970.  Some of the users of the hospital were the mine workers themselves, who suffered from occupational diseases such as tuberculosis and silicosis . The Sanatorium of Monte Alto was inaugurated on 1 November 1958,  being the last one to be opened in Portugal. The inauguration ceremony included a religious service at the Chapel of Nossa Senhora dos Enfermos, the unveiling of a commemorative tombstone, a tribute to the League of Combatants of theFirst World War, and concluded with a port of honor offered by the board of directors. of the sanatorium.  During the ceremony, the admission and accommodation process of the first clients, all veterans of the First World War, was also carried out. Although it was planned for three hundred patients,  its initial capacity was only fifty beds, and during its operation it accommodated 350 people.    In the early 1970s, there began to be greater control over the tuberculosis disease, which began to be fought in a different way, through the outpatient system.  In this way, the sanatoriums ceased to be useful, and were progressively abandoned or underwent a process of readaptation for other purposes.  In the case of the Montalto Sanatorium, the closure process began in 1972,  due to the low number of tuberculosis patients in the Porto District.  At that time, the building already had only a few patients, having been thought of its adaptation as a psychiatric hospital or for the returnees from overseas, which did not advance.  Due to the process of closing the Sanatorium, Casa Nossa Senhora da Conceição ceased to function as a boarding school, starting to support only external students. The building was abandoned after the April 25 Revolution , when the last employee left, although it was only officially closed in 1975.  Following its closure, it was completely looted, being a of the main reasons its connection to the Estado Novo, as it was mostly built and used during that regime.  This connection to the Estado Novo also had a negative impact on the collection of funds, making it impossible to carry out works on the building. It was also used as a training ground by firefighters and civil protection, who performed drills there and destroyed some walls.  Later, the sanatorium was used for paintball games and photo shoots, and various ceremonies related to the supernatural, such as rituals, were also performed there. The building was also hit by several fires, accentuating its degradation. History is awesome and fun and you know we love it but…. The reason we're here is for creepiness! There are stories abound of how haunted this place is. Given the numerous people who died there it makes sense to us! So what kind of stuff are we talking about here ? Well, let's look.    Well paranormal investigators have been spending time here for years, when there's no paintball matches going on, to try and find crazy shit! There have been numerous reports of strange noises and things moving around. There have been entities seen and apparitions spotted. It's hard to find much in English so finding pages from Portuguese websites and trying to find studies was tough but we managed to find one study where a group of friends were exploring the abandoned hospital and had some interesting things happen. They talked about how they started hearing strange noises while they were exploring. The noises seemed to be following them around the building. They talked about how they had a heavy feeling around them as they explored. The sounds seemed to keep getting closer to them. They claim that things started getting knocked over and moved on their own. At one point, one of the group claimed they saw a shadowy figure seemingly watching them. At that point they all decided it was time to go! Sounds like a pretty crazy experience!  True or not? We like to think so!   Can't go and episode without fucking tuberculosis… Teatro Lethes:   The building that today is called Teatro Lethes, began as a Jesuit College – Colégio de Santiago Maior, founded by the then Bishop of the Algarve, D. Fernando Martins Mascarenhas -, whose license was granted to them on 8 February 1599. of learning, above all of a religious nature – the “first university in the Algarve”, as someone has called it. In 1759, the Society of Jesus was banned from the country and its goods were confiscated. The College of Santiago Maior closed its doors. With the occupation of Napoleonic troops commanded by General Junot, the premises of the former College were raided and desecrated in order to enlist the soldiers there. Years later, in 1843, the College was auctioned off by Dr. Lazaro Doglioni, who had publicly expressed his intention to build a theater in Faro similar to S.   The Latin inscription on the facade of the building, monet oblectando , can be translated as “instructing, playing”, thus emphasizing the cultural concerns of the promoter of the construction of this concert hall.   The inauguration of Teatro Lethes took place on 4 April 1845, as part of the celebrations for the birthday of Queen Maria II. Later, in 1860, it was expanded by Dr. Justino Cumano, nephew of Lázaro Doglioni. On September 11, 1898, the so-called animatograph was exhibited for the first time in Faro., installed in the Lethes Theater as it is the largest and most distinguished cultural space in the city. It was restored between 1906 and 1908 to improve acoustics and comfort. The decline of the shows and, consequently, of the hall, begins in 1920, with the Theater closing in 1925, having sold the property to the Portuguese Red Cross, in whose possession it still remains. The Lethes Theater room was later ceded, by protocol, to the Algarve Regional Delegation of the Ministry of Culture. In the North wing, restored and adapted in 1991, the regional services of the Ministry of Culture operated. On October 5, 2012, by protocol between the Municipality of Faro and the Portuguese Red Cross, Teatro Lethes recovered its initial design. The Algarve Theater Company – ACTA was installed as a resident structure. ACTA, in addition to presenting shows of its own creation, also promotes hospitality at the Lethes Theater, and is also responsible for managing the equipment. this history was taken directly from the theatre website!   There are a couple stories about this place that prettier day lead to its hauntings. The first is the story of a ballerina who was in love but was not loved back. She was so distraught that she hung herself in the middle of the stage. Some versions say that she was driven to the brink by the demands of theater life. The second is that of a soldier's body that was found inside one of the walls. There isn't as much info on that story as the ballerina. Staff and visitors claim you can hear the ballerinas footsteps in the theater to this day. There are also reports of a shadowy figure moving about as well. Could this be the ballerina still performing for the people? Or the soldier patrolling the theater? Who knows but it sounds like a cool place to visit!! The Castelinho of Sao Joao, Estoril   The area between Estoril and Cascais, out on Lisbon's Atlantic coast, is rife with buildings of character. Many of them are designed to give the impression of miniature castles, indeed some of them were fortified because they were built during times of instability within the Iberian peninsula.   In the 1980s, a wealthy socialite, José Castelo Branco, was looking for just such a property and found one that seemed ideal in Sao Joao, a district on the edge of Estoril. The day he went to view the property was a beautiful sunny one and so he decided to walk along the cliff path which adjoined the property. As he was walking back to the building, he saw a young girl. She didn't speak, but simply stared at him. In his own account of the events of that day, Mr Castelo Branco said that he felt a compulsion to jump from the edge. This feeling was, he believed, coming from the young girl. He immediately elected to leave the property and ruled out buying it.   On hearing what had happened, someone from the local town hall did some research into the building and discovered that a young blind girl had fallen from the cliffs to her death in the eighteenth century and that several people had reported seeing her at the castelinho since, each claiming that they felt a strong will to jump while she looked at them.   Let's check out a cemetery now…cus those are always fun!    This one is called the cemetery of pleasures. After the city of Lisbon was hit by an outbreak of cholera in 1833, causing thousands of deaths,  it was urgent to create a large cemetery for both rich and poorer victims. It has the weird name of  Cemetery of ‘Pleasures', called after the nearby neighborhood (Prazeres) with the same name. Many of its tombs are big mausoleums, some with the size of small chapels.    Most of the Prazeres mausoleums belong to rich, old or ‘important' families, like  the Palmela family. Many of the mausoleums are richly elaborate, have fine sculptures and decorations. There are also statues of the deceased. It's like a ‘city in a city' for the dead, with well-defined lanes (70! ) and funerary chapels that were built to look like little houses.   The unusual thing about a lot of these graves is that they have little “front doors” with glass windows through which you can see the caskets and remnants of the dead and their visitors. Most of the trees are a species of cypress (Cupressus sempervirens), much used in Portuguese cemeteries.   The cemetery is one of the largest in Lisbon.    The Autopsy Room , which was in the chapel until the Morgues were created in 1899, is one of the curiosities that can be seen, as well as the Sala do Acervo , where some of the oldest funeral records can be consulted. This is another way of helping the visitor to interpret the different ways that human beings have had to culturally, socially and psychologically approach Death, throughout different times.   As with the many famous families and celebrities, another thing that adds to some people thinking there's more going on at this place is the presence of many freemason symbols and you know how that gets people talking!    At any rate, being a cemetery you can imagine the tales of hauntings surrounding this place! Everything from apparitions being seen wandering the grounds, to Disembodied voices. People have seen orbs in person and in pictures. I mean being able to see into these little houses and see the caskets and remains is creepy enough…add haunting to that…and it's definitely a place we want to go!   Next up, Quinta Das Conchas   The Quinta das Conchas (or the garden of shells) in Lisbon is best known for its expansive parkland, just to the north of the city centre. Families can be found playing here during the warmer months and countless dog walkers can be seen at any time of the year. The house at the heart of the estate though has a darker past which is lesser known. In the early part of the twentieth century, when Portugal was still a colonial power, the owner of the estate was a wealthy man called Francisco Mantero Belard. Like many of his countrymen, he was accustomed to having servants who took care of the running of his home. So, when he moved into the quinta, he acquired the services of a slave from Sao Tomé and Principe. There was nothing unusual about this at the time, other than that he elected to keep this slave woman in a small cage. She was made to live like an animal and, according to local myth, subjected to a variety of cruel treatment for several years. People working in the manor house in modern times have reported hearing wailing coming from empty rooms, as well as dramatic changes in temperature.   Let's switch it up and talk a little about Portuguese folklore! We're gonna talk about the coco or coca. There are also many other names for this guy or gal including Cucuy, Cuco, Cuca, Cucu or Cucuí. It is a mythical ghost-monster, equivalent to the bogeyman, found in many Hispanophone and Lusophone countries. It can also be considered an Iberian version of a bugbear as it is a commonly used figure of speech representing an irrational or exaggerated fear. A bugbear is described as  a legendary creature or type of hobgoblin comparable to the boogeyman and other creatures of folklore, all of which were historically used in some cultures to frighten disobedient children. The Cucuy is a male being while Cuca is a female version of the mythical monster. In Spain, Portugal, and Latin America, parents sometimes invoke the Coco or Cuca as a way of discouraging their children from misbehaving; they sing lullabies or tell rhymes warning their children that if they don't obey their parents, el Coco will come and get them and then eat them.    Continuing with the mystery surrounding this child scarer, the Coco also does not take on a specific physical form. For the Portuguese it is a dragon that is represented every year in the celebration of Corpus Christi…at least that is what I've source says.. another says: "In Portuguese côco, refers to a ghost with a pumpkin head. The male form is known as Coco, and the female form as Coca. It is said it's hard to tell the difference between the two. It seems that parents are to blame for the invocation of the Coco as a way of punishment for their wayward children. They would sing rhymes warning their children if they did not obey their parents the Coco would come and eat them.".... So a pumpkin headed goblin… Although the Coco was ghostly monster like in appearance, that wasn't the most frightening thing about them. Children would be scared out of their wits at the idea of a monster that could eat them and not leave a trace. So imagine being a child forced to sleep with a lullaby of a monster that was coming to devour them.    Duermete niño, duermete ya…que viene el cuco y te comerá (sleep child, sleep now…or else comes the coco to eat you).   Creepy, so this folk tale seems to have many different versions depending on where you look. We think that due to the fact that many Latin American countries also use this in folklore as well as there being a certain in Brazil, it's hard to actually put the facts together. Every place we looked about this tale had a little bit of a different take, hopefully we got it close as we mean no disrespect to the tales!   You know what else Portugal has…aliens, at least a few. He's a couple stories!    On September 4, 1957, four Portugal Air Force pilots claimed to have seen and chased some UFOs. They took off with their bomber aircraft from the Ota Air Base in Portugal under Captain José Lemos Ferreira leadership (the others pilots were sergeants Alberto Gomes Covas, Salvador Alberto Oliveira e Manuel Neves Marcelino). When they were heading towards the city of Portalegre, Captain Ferreira noticed a light above the horizon and warned the others. The light changed its own sizes a couple of times, first increasing, then shrinking. After several minutes the pilots noticed a small yellow circle getting out of the craft, and 3 more circles appeared later. When the UFOs were near Coruche, the bigger aircraft climbed out of the Earth as the smaller ones disappeared. The bombers landed without any problems and Captain Ferreira declared: "after this, do not come to us with that Venus, weather balloons, aircraft and similar stuff which have been being used as general explanations for almost every case of UFOs".   On September 10, 1990, around 9:30AM and for about 50 minutes, a small "balloon" was seen hovering towards a small football field, on a small village called Alfena in the outskirts of Porto. The object was described as "a small turtle with long legs" with a metallic shine. The people present got scared and a group of construction workers started throwing stones at it, and the object hovered backed away, leaving the site. An amateur photographer took several pictures of the shapeshifting object; the pictures were considered by several experts as real and the witness accounts by the simple folks were not considered hoax.    We also found this first hand account.. "My name is Cristina Marto de Pimental. I am a reporter. On New Year's Eve, December 31, 1997, my husband and I were at a seaside party in Funchal, which is on the South shore of Madeira Island, in the Atlantic Ocean, 912 kilometres East of Morocco. We were watching the New Year's festivities, all the fireworks in the sky. Then several people at the party called my attention to a red and motionless light above Funchal. The OVNI suddenly made a very tight circle, returned to its initial position, and, a few seconds later, it accelerated at great speed in a vertical direction. We were all quite amazed at the sight. A British couple at the festival videotaped the UFO as it hovered. The next day I telephoned the Fuerzas Aereas Portugeses (FAP) headquarters in Lisboa. The Portuguese air force told me that they'd had no flights, neither planes nor helicopters, and no satellites were over Madeira at that time."   Whoooooo aliens!!!   Time for some quick hitters, you beautiful bastards!   Quinta da Paulicea, Agueda:   Not far from the city center of Águeda, Quinta da Paulicea sits in the middle of large unkept plot of land surrounded by a wrought iron fence. It is the classic image of what a Hollywood haunted house should look like. It was inhabited by an Águedense family, who had moved to Brazil in the late 1800s, but returned in the early 1900s, naming the home after the city of São Paulo. Much of the family succumbed to the influenza pandemic in 1918, with the exception of Neca Carneiro. He was a patron of the community's sports and cultural programs but died childless at the young age of 37. The home has sat vacant ever since, due to legal constraints with the family back in Brazil. Although not certified as haunted, there are many reports of supernatural encounters at Quinta da Paulicea. Some have heard the neighing of horses where the stables once stood. Others have been frightened by the sound of a shotgun blast or a gentle pulling on hair. A worker in the garden suddenly experienced such an intense headache that he fled and never returned. Whether haunted or not, this beautiful home has many stories to tell.   Mines of São Pedro de Cova – Gondomar:   The village of São Pedro da Cova was largely an agricultural community until the discovery of coal in the 1802. The exhausting and dangerous industry of mining soon took over. Several generations of miners worked here until low oil prices forced the mines to shut down in the 1970's. All that's left of the mines are these ruins. Neighbors say spirits of the miners protect the ruins and the mine shafts. Others claim to hear screaming from the deep holes.   Termas de Água Radium, Sortelha:    Legend has it that this beautiful structure, in the Guarda District, was built by Spanish Count Don Rodrigo after learning that the natural “healing waters” might cure his daughter's skin disease. News of the waters quickly spread. In the 1920s, the site became a restorative spa known as the Hotel Serra da Pena. In actuality, the waters were radioactive, seeping from a uranium mine not far away. Radioactivity was all the rage in the 20's and 30's, so the site bottled the spring water and sold it under the name “Radium Water.” Of course, after radioactivity was studied further in the 40's, it became apparent that the healing qualities of radium water actually carried the opposite effect. The hotel went out of business in the 50's and has been abandoned ever since. It is said the site is haunted by the many people who drank from the contaminated spring.   Sanatório da Serra da Estrela – near Covilhã:   This massive structure was built in 1936 by Portugal's railway department as a treatment facility for its employees suffering from Tuberculosis. The building was later leased to the Portuguese Society of Sanatoriums on condition of receiving all patients needing treatment.  However it was closed in the 1980's and left to deteriorate for decades to come.  Rumors circulate that it is haunted by its many former patients.  The Sanatório has now been refurbished and transformed into the luxurious new Pousada Serra da Estrella.   Quinta da Juncosa – Penafiel, Rios de Monihos:    This old farmhouse was home to the Baron of Lages and his family.  The Baron was very jealous, and suspected his wife of infidelities.  Legends have it, the Baron tied his wife to a horse and dragged her around the farm until she died.  After discovering his wife was innocent, the Baron killed his children and committed suicide.  They say the Baron's guilt keeps him from resting in peace.  Ghosts of the Baron and his wife are said to be seen around the property.   So we did this episode in honor of our Portuguese listeners who have keep us in the top 10 in Portugal for quite some time. We thank you guys so much for that. But we have one request for you…in every creepy episodes so far until this one…we've found a haunted bridge, Texas had like 50. In all of my searching the recesses of the Internet, I could not find a single reference to a haunted bridge in Portugal, we need our Portuguese listeners to hit us up and let us know any stories about haunted bridges. It was tough to find a ton of information on a lot of these places so hopefully we did them right! If we made any mistakes or got anything wrong, you know what we say…blame the Internet!!
