Orcas Are Attacking Boats Near Spain. Scientists Don't Know Why This Thursday, the Supreme Court restricted the scope of the Clean Water Act pertaining to wetlands, in a 5-4 vote. This could affect the Environmental Protection Agency's power to protect certain kinds of wetlands, which help reduce the impacts of flooding by absorbing water, and also act as natural filters that make drinking water cleaner. Justice Brett Kavanaugh joined the court's three liberal members in the dissent, writing that the decision will have, “significant repercussions for water quality and flood control throughout the United States.” Plus, earlier this month, three orcas attacked a boat, leading to its sinking. This is the third time an incident like this has happened in the past three years, accompanied by a large rise of orcas attacking boats near the Strait of Gibraltar. Scientists are unsure of the cause. One theory is that these attacks could be a fad, led by juvenile orcas in the area, a documented behavior in this subpopulation of the dolphin family. They could also be a response to a potential bad encounter between boats and orcas in the area. Science Friday's Charles Bergquist talks with Sophie Bushwick, technology editor for Scientific American, about these and other stories from this week in science news, including a preview of a hot El Niño summer, an amateur astronomer who discovered a new supernova, and alleviating waste problems by using recycled diapers in concrete. A Famous Sled Dog's Genome Holds Evolutionary Surprises Do you remember the story of Balto? In 1925, the town of Nome, Alaska, was facing a diphtheria outbreak. Balto was a sled dog and a very good boy who helped deliver life-saving medicine to the people in the town. Balto's twisty tale has been told many times, including in a 1990s animated movie in which Kevin Bacon voiced the iconic dog. But last month, scientists uncovered a new side of Balto. They sequenced his genes and discovered the sled dog wasn't exactly who they expected. The study published in the journal Science, was part of a project called Zoonomia, which aims to better understand the evolution of mammals, including our own genome, by looking at the genes of other animals—from narwhals to aardvarks. Guest host Flora Lichtman talks with Dr. Elinor Karlsson, associate professor in Bioinformatics and Integrative Biology at the UMass Chan Medical School and director of Vertebrate Genomics at the Broad Institute of MIT and Harvard; Dr. Katie Moon, post-doctoral researcher who led Balto's study; and Dr. Beth Shapiro, professor of ecology and evolutionary biology at UC Santa Cruz, who coauthored the new study on Balto and another paper which identified animals that are most likely to face extinction. The Long And Short Of Telomere Activity Telomeres are repeating short sequences of genetic code (in humans, TTAGGG) located on the ends of chromosomes. They act as a buffer during the cell replication process. Loops at the end of the telomere prevent chromosomes from getting inadvertently stuck together by DNA repair enzymes. Over the lifetime of the cell, the telomeres become shorter and shorter with each cell division. When they become too short, the cell dies. Telomere sequences weren't thought to do much else—sort of like the plastic tip at the end of a shoelace. Writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, researchers now argue that telomeres may actually encode for two short proteins. Normally, those proteins aren't released into the cell. However, if the telomere is damaged—or as it gets shorter during repeated cell replication cycles—those signaling proteins may be able to leak out into the cell and affect other processes, perhaps altering nucleic acid metabolism and protein synthesis, or triggering cellular inflammation. Jack Griffith, one of the authors of the report and the Kenan Distinguished Professor of microbiology and immunology at the UNC School of Medicine, joins SciFri's Charles Bergquist to talk about the idea and what other secrets may lie inside the telomere. Philadelphia's Mütter Museum Takes Down Digital Resources Robert Pendarvis gave his heart to Philadelphia's Mütter Museum. Literally. He has a rare condition called acromegaly, where his body makes too much growth hormone, which causes bones, cartilage and organs to keep growing. The condition affected his heart, so much so that a heart valve leaked. He had a heart transplant in 2020. Pendarvis thought his original heart could tell an important story, and teach others about this rare condition, which is why he was determined to put it on display at the Mütter Museum. The Mütter Museum is a Philadelphia institution, a medical museum that draws hundreds of thousands of visitors to its rooms filled with anatomical specimens, models, and old medical instruments. The place is not for the squeamish. Display cases show skulls, abnormal skeletons, and a jar containing the bodies of stillborn conjoined twins. Pendarvis thought it would be the perfect home for his heart — and more. To read the rest, visit sciencefriday.com To stay updated on all-things-science, sign up for Science Friday's newsletters.

Colonel Terry Chester's flying career spanned some 42 years, and 10,000 flying hours. He joined the RCAF in Sept 1964 and in 1968 was awarded Navigator Wings. Terry flew for 3,000 hrs on the Argus Maritime patrol aircraft where he spent a good portion of his RCAF career hunting for Soviet Submarines in both the Pacific and Atlantic areas of operation. He was instrumental in the design criteria for sub-hunting capability when Canada procured the new Aurora, for anti-submarine hunting in the early 1980s. Terry reveals sub-hunting tactics as well as details of Canadian participation in NATO exercises. Among other stories, he describes how he accidentally attacked a US nuclear submarine, the perils of landing in Gibraltar, and Soviet sub-incursions into Canadian waters. He also recalls airborne meetings with Soviet aircraft and a trip in the British nuclear submarine HMS Churchill.

El Gobierno español anunció la semana pasada que realizará una investigación ante la posible importación de dos cargamentos de gasóleo proveniente de Rusia que pasó antes por una terminal marroquí en el puerto de Tánger. La exclusiva la dio el diario El Mundo obligando a la ministra de Transición Ecológica, Teresa Ribera, a actuar ya que desde hace casi tres meses está terminantemente prohibido importar en la Unión Europea petróleo y sus derivados procedentes de Rusia. Pero no ha venido de Rusia. Según contaba El Mundo la importación se ha realizado a través de Marruecos, un país que no produce ni crudo ni derivados, de hecho, Marruecos suele comprar gasóleo y no venderlo. Eso despertó sospechas entre los especialistas, los que comercian con este tipo de productos, los agentes aduaneros y las petroleras españolas como Repsol, cuyo presidente, Josu Jon Imaz, aseguró apesadumbrado durante la presentación de resultados de su empresa que el diésel ruso sigue estando presente no sólo en el mercado español, sino también en el europeo a pesar de las sanciones. Para ello el Kremlin se vale de una red de terceros países y de una flota de buques cisterna que opera al margen de las sanciones, la conocida como flota fantasma de la que os hablé hace unos tres meses que opera por todo el mundo transportando hidrocarburos rusos. Esto pone contra las cuerdas al Gobierno español a sólo dos meses de que asuma la presidencia rotatoria de la Unión Europea, que comenzará el próximo 1 de julio y se extenderá hasta el 31 de diciembre. Esto de que el país se haya convertido en un coladero de un combustible de procedencia ilegal no es la mejor carta de presentación ante sus socios, que ya miran de reojo al Ejecutivo de Sánchez por los problemas que se están produciendo en la asignación de los fondos de recuperación Next Generation, y por sus repetidos intentos de controlar la Justicia. Ribera aprovechó que el viernes pasado participaba en el Foro de Nueva Economía para transmitir tranquilidad. Afirmó que el Gobierno tiene "el compromiso de investigar qué está ocurriendo con la llegada de combustibles que, en principio, vienen con papeles que acreditan una procedencia correcta". Esos papeles a los que se refiere la ministra se pueden falsificar por lo que, ante la gravedad de los hechos, es necesario abordar una investigación en profundidad y depurar las responsabilidades pertinentes. En este caso el asunto se complica ya que el escándalo afecta al régimen marroquí, muy cercano políticamente al actual Gobierno español. A diferencia de los países de la Unión Europea, Marruecos no ha suscrito ninguna de las sanciones contra Rusia en represalia por la invasión de Ucrania, tampoco la de impedir la importación de petróleo y combustibles como el gasóleo. Eso permitió al país importar una gran cantidad de diésel y almacenarlo en la terminal portuaria de Tánger, en la costa sur del estrecho de Gibraltar. Según El Mundo hasta allí han llegado en los últimos meses un total siete millones de litros de gasóleo al día. Una parte se ha destinado al consumo interno, otra se ha exportado a distintos países como Turquía, Ghana y España, a esta última quizá con certificados falsos de procedencia ya que de lo contrario no hubiesen podido descargar.

This episode looks at one of the greatest of all maritime mysteries – the extraordinary tale of the Mary Celeste.On 4 December 1872, in the middle of the Atlantic near the Azores, the brigantine Dei Gratia chanced upon another brigantine. She was under sail but entirely silent, and it soon becomes clear that she was entirely deserted. She was called Mary Celeste.Ever since - for over 150 years - the mystery of why the Mary Celeste was abandoned and what happened to the ten souls on board has spawned thousands of conjectures, conspiracy theories, fictions and fantasies; mostly myths made from fractured truths.To find out more – and in a bid finally to unpick the myth from the reality, Dr Sam Willis spoke with maritime historian Graham Faiella, author of The Mysterious Case of the Mary Celeste: 150 Years of Myth and Mystique . They discuss her story from beginning to end – from her construction in the Bay of Fundy, through her life as a merchant ship, on to her final fateful voyage, and then to the remarkable enquiry that took place in Gibraltar, as British maritime authorities were the first to embrace the challenge of trying to understand what happened.

Greg Jenner is joined by Prof Amira Bennison and comedian Fatiha El-Ghorri to learn about Al Andalus. From 711 to 1492, a significant amount of the Iberian peninsula – modern day Spain and Portugal – was ruled by a succession of Islamic rulers. This era was a golden age as people and customs were imported from as far away as Iraq and North Africa to mix with what already existed on the Iberian peninsula. The short distance between North Africa and Western Europe at the Strait of Gibraltar has meant there has been a constant interchange and exchange across the centuries. But how did this process of raiding, trading and invading create some of the most sophisticated and populous cities of early Medieval Europe?

April 4: Saint Isidore, Bishop and Doctor c. 560–636 Optional Memorial; Liturgical Color: White Patron Saint of the internet There was little he did not know The vast colonial ambitions of Spain in the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries went hand in hand with equally epic Catholic missionary efforts. This unity of purpose, these shared goals, with civil and ecclesiastical resources and powers working in concert, was the natural consequence of a country with a total unity of identity. Today's saint was a singularly important, if remote, source for that powerful concurrence of Iberian theology, culture, art, and language which, after centuries of gestation, became the Spanish juggernaut that conquered and evangelized a hemisphere in the 1500s. As a youth, Isidore received an excellent classical education in the Roman tradition, similar to the classical learning Saint Augustine imbibed two centuries before him and utilized to such great effect. Yet Isidore not only learned a great deal, he also remembered it and was uncommonly dedicated to his intellectual pursuits, writing numerous weighty tomes. The breadth and depth of his learning were without equal in his time. It was simply said that Isidore, Archbishop of Seville, knew everything. He is considered by many to be the last of the Latin Fathers of the Church, those early Christian theologians whose writings are the gold standard for all subsequent theologians. His knowledge was put to good use. As the Roman world, which had dominated Spain for so many centuries, slowly crumbled away in the fifth and sixth centuries, Visigothic (Western Goths) tribes overran Spain. Like their Gothic cousins in Central Europe, the Visigoths were Arians, and Arians were heretics. They denied that Christ was consubstantial with the Father and accepted all that flowed from that erroneous starting point. Saint Isidore played an important role in the assimilation of the Visigoths to Nicene Catholicism after one of their Kings abandoned Arianism. Theological unity having been achieved, the old Roman culture of Iberia slowly blended with Visigothic culture to form something new—Spain. Saint Isidore was, then, a nation builder, because he was first a Church builder. And he built the Church not just through his massive erudition but also through effective headship in calling and guiding Church synods, by establishing liturgical unity through the Mozarabic Rite, and by encouraging scholarship and learning through the Cathedral schools he mandated in every diocese. Saint Isidore's most enduring work is his Etymologies (or Origins), an enormous compendium of universal knowledge. It was the standard encyclopedia in Medieval libraries and continued to be utilized as late as the Renaissance. No author's manuscripts were more widely copied in the Middle Ages than Isidore's. Although Saint Isidore was not a creative thinker in the same class as Saint Augustine or the Eastern Fathers of the Church, his mind was such a vast storehouse of knowledge that Pope Saint John Paul II named him the Patron Saint of the Internet. After a long reign as Archbishop of Seville, in his last days Saint Isidore prepared for death by wearing sackcloth and ashes, confessing his faults to his people in church, and asking their forgiveness. He died in his late seventies in 636, just four years after Mohammed, the founder of Islam, died in Saudi Arabia. About seventy-five years after their deaths, Muslim armies crossed the strait of Gibraltar from North Africa and began the long conquest which obliterated the Visigoths. The Spanish reconquest of their nation would take centuries until, in 1492, the last Muslim stronghold, Granada, fell. Both sides were inspired by faith more than patriotism. Both sides fought. Both sides thought they were right. In the end, the nation Isidore created was the stronger and drove Mohammed's heirs back over the waters to Africa. Isidore's enormous legacy was a Catholic nation, and it prevailed. Saint Isidore, you used your education and knowledge to great effect to evangelize a people. Help all who seek your intercession to unite their learning with zeal for the good of the Church and the many peoples it serves.

Presentator Jeroen Stekelenburg blikt met commentatoren Arman Avsarolgu, Jeroen Elshoff en Jeroen Grueter terug op de EK kwalificatiewedstrijd tussen Nederland en Gibraltar.
Een dag later dan anders brengen chef voetbal Valentijn Driessen, Oranje-volger Mike Verweij en presentator Pim Sedee het laatste voetbalnieuws in Kick-off. Reden is natuurlijk de interland van Oranje tegen Gibraltar. Volgens Driessen en Verweij is het treurig dat het Nederlands elftal geen goede spits heeft. Ook merken ze op dat Virgil van Dijk verantwoordelijkheid ontloopt als aanvoerder. Verder: de slordigheden van de bondscoach, het gedweep met Van Gaal nu Koeman een valse start heeft gemaakt en buitenlandse interesse in Feyenoord-coach Arne Slot.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Na het verlies tegen Frankrijk, moest Oranje tegen Gibraltar het blazoen oppoetsen. Maar dat lukte niet met een 3-0 zege. Welke lessen kan Koeman uit trekken uit deze eerste twee EK-kwalificatiewedstrijden? Etienne Verhoeff bespreekt het met Sjoerd Mossou. En daarnaast de stress in Arnhem en de toekomst van Stefan de Vrij.'Nederland moet minimaal met 6-0 winnen van Gibraltar', zei Maarten Wijffels gisteren in de AD Voetbalpodcast. De povere 3-0 was niet genoeg. Dat erkende Virgil van Dijk ook voor de camera van NOS. Al zei de aanvoerder van Oranje ook dat je het nooit goed doet, tenzij je met 10-0 wint. Mossou: 'Van Dijk heeft wel gelijk als hij zegt dat je nooit goed kunt doen in dit soort duels. Het zijn verschrikkelijke wedstrijden om naar te kijken. Er staan in de slotfase 10 spelers van Gibraltar in de zestien en zes daarvan in het vijf meter gebied. Maar het had wel vele malen beter gemoeten bij Oranje.' Ondertussen is het in Arnhem onrustig. De overname van Vitesse is nog niet afgerond en ondertussen is er nog geen stadion komt beschikbaar voor de club beschikbaar. 'GelreDome en Vitesse hebben elkaar nodig. Ik weet niet wie er het meeste water bij de wijn moet doen, maar er moet een oplossing komen. GelreDome heeft voetbal nodig en Vitesse voor 11 april een stadion. Los van dat feit, is het wel een triest verhaal bij Vitesse sinds ze door de Russen zijn overgenomen. Je hebt een wonderdokter nodig om dit allemaal op te lossen.'Beluister de hele AD Voetbalpodcast nu via AD.nl, de AD App of jouw favoriete podcastplatform.Support the show: https://krant.nlSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Oranje likt de wonden na de 4-0 nederlaag in Frankrijk. Op de persconferentie van zondag was bondscoach Ronald Koeman wederom kritisch en gaf hij een inkijkje in het proces in de kleedkamer. Over Oranje, maar ook AZ en de televisiegelden voor de Eredivisie praat Etienne Verhoeff met Maarten Wijffels in een nieuwe AD Voetbalpodcast. De nabespreking was pittig geweest, vertelde Koeman. Want tegen Frankrijk ging er vrijdagavond maar weinig goed, zeker niet de eerste 20 minuten. ,,Het had eigenlijk 8-0 voor Frankrijk moeten zijn", zegt Wijffels. ,,Voor het proces was het interessant als je nu uit naar Griekenland had moeten gaan. Dan zie je wat voor weerslag de wedstrijd tegen Frankrijk heeft op de groep. Nu krijg je Gibraltar op bezoek. Die speelden vrijdag tegen Griekenland. Die Grieken hebben 29 keer op doel schoten en drie doelpunten gemaakt. Gibraltar kwam niet verder dan één doelpoging." Wijffels was in Parijs vooral verbaasd over het naïeve spel van Oranje, terwijl de laatste anderhalf jaar al duidelijk was hoe kwetsbaar het elftal is. ,,Het gaat niet zozeer om de poppetjes en wie er schuld heeft. Het gaat erom dat het bij rust nog een wedstrijd moet zijn. Nota bene de woorden van Ronald Koeman zelf. Hij had toch van te voren kunnen zeggen dat er zieken waren die week, Oranje net uit een WK komt. Frankrijk-uit is een lastige uitwedstrijd, dus we gaan nu iets meer zekerheid inbouwen en dan gaan we daarna verder met bouwen aan het spel. Dat was een logisch verhaal geweest."Beluister de hele podcast nu via AD.nl, de AD App of jouw favoriete podcastplatform.Support the show: https://krant.nlSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

¡Hola! Soy Óscar y te saludo con un “hola”. No una ola, porque no soy un mar. Ni tampoco un océano. Gracias por acompañarme en un nuevo episodio del pódcast. Recuerda que puedes conseguir el texto de este episodio en mi página web www.unlimitedspanish.com En la sección del pódcast. Bien, Espero que tengas puesto el bañador, porque hoy toca mojarse. Bueno, no literalmente. Hace poco me pregunté sobre la diferencia entre un mar y un océano, y me parece interesante hablar sobre ello. Si bien estos dos términos se usan indistintamente en ocasiones, hay algunas diferencias clave que los hacen diferentes. Vamos a ello. Primero de todo las definiciones. Hemos de ser respetuosos con el diccionario, claro. El diccionario oficial, el Diccionario de la lengua Española, define mar como: Masa de agua salada que cubre la mayor parte de la superficie terrestre. Curiosamente, este mismo diccionario define océano como: Mar de gran extensión que separa dos o más continentes. Así, que… Un océano es un mar… pero muuuucho más grande. Como dato curioso, los océanos cubren más del 70% de la superficie de la Tierra, mientras que los mares cubren solo el 7%. Es importante recalcar que un mar está normalmente rodeado de tierra. Por ejemplo, el famoso mar Mediterráneo se encuentra rodeado de grandes extensiones de tierra correspondientes al continente europeo en el norte, al africano en el sur y al asiático en el este. No obstante, el Mediterráneo no está enteramente encerrado, sino que se comunica con el océano atlántico. ¿Sabrías decir por dónde? Es una pregunta de geografía, ya lo sé… La respuesta es… Por el estrecho de Gibraltar. Este estrecho tiene un ancho de tan solo 13 km (unas 8 millas). Muy estrecho. Curiosamente, el mar Mediterráneo tiene mares más pequeños dentro: mar Balear, mar de Cerdeña, mar Jónico, etc. Podemos decir que el Mediterráneo es un mar de mares :) Vale, sabemos que los mares son más pequeños que los océanos, y además están rodeados de tierra. Otra diferencia es que hay muchos más mares que océanos. ¿Sabrías decirme cuántos océanos hay? La pregunta es fácil, ¿no? Solo cinco. ¿Y cuáles son sus nombres? Va, te los digo: Océano atlántico, índico, pacífico glaciar antártico y glaciar ártico. ¡Cuántas cosas estamos aprendiendo hoy! Por otra parte, hay muchos mares. Un total de 60 mares. ¿Sabrías los nombres de todos los mares? Yo tampoco. No los voy a nombrar todos, pero te daré un par de ejemplos: el Báltico y el Caribe.

In the years 1778 and 1779, the American revolutionaries work to keep the British army bottled up in New York City. At the same time, the British open a second offensive in the southern states, and encourage their Native American allies to open up a series of small frontier wars in the American West. The American revolutionaries are also aided by new friends. For the first time, the French take an active role against the British. Sensing opportunity, Spain jumps on the bandwagon, hoping to retake their lost territory of Gibraltar. What began as a local uprising in the colonies is now an international war that threatens to bring the British Empire to its knees. SUBSCRIBE TO RELEVANT HISTORY, AND NEVER MISS AN EPISODE!

Have a drink with the only troop of wild monkeys in Europe. The Royal Crown colony of Gibraltar remains one of the Old World's enigmas – a cauldron of cultures and empires simmering together under the low-lit flame of History itself. Gibraltar is also a port where weary sailors, restless soldiers and drifters engaged in espionage have found themselves stranded over time. Episode 9 explores how the contours of this colony intersected with the lives of three drink-loving writers, as well as how the legacy of cider, sherry, spying and warfare connects with their stories that were penned about a high rock over the sea.
Join Jeffrey and Darren in a beautiful converation about the power of the soul and our connection to God/Spirit/Source. Through awareness, we are able to recognize that we are all connected to the very same power, thus connected to each other, here and on the other side. Since 1991 Darren has demonstrated his mediumship in Spiritualist churches, public halls and theatres. His gift has taken him to all counties in the UK as well as to Portugal, Spain, Gibraltar, Norway, Finland, Switzerland, Germany and Canada, and America as well as offers of work from Denmark and Australia. He has written for, and been featured in several well-respected esoteric publications including Two Worlds and Psychic News, and in the last few of years has turned down three offers of work on high profile TV programmes, feeling that his work would be seen as purely entertainment and not for its true meaning. He is able to convey messages from the other side; often with such accuracy there is no doubt that a world exists after this one. His reputation for delivering names, dates, street names, and personal information to identify loved ones has earned him a reputation as a medium of the high quality. As well as being able to convey messages from the Spirit World, he sees his work as much more than that. He has a desire to remind people through his own experiences of life, and through his connection to Spirit, that we are all Divine in origin and how we can attune to that source of love to help us to heal.

El primer ministro del Reino Unido, Rishi Sunak, y la presidenta de la Comisión Europea, Ursula von der Leyen, se reunieron este lunes para anunciar un nuevo acuerdo sobre el estatus comercial de Irlanda del Norte. El acuerdo, conocido como protocolo de Windsor, pone fin a la salvaguarda irlandesa firmada durante las negociaciones del Brexit, y que había dejado a Irlanda del Norte dentro de la unión aduanera para que permaneciese abierta la frontera entre las dos Irlandas. La salvaguarda, que llevaba en vigor desde principios de 2020, nunca ha funcionado. Ha sido, de hecho, una fuente continua de problemas y dolores de cabeza para ambas partes, especialmente para la europea ya que era objeto de continuas violaciones, la burocracia era infernal y abundaba el contrabando. Hasta la consumación del Brexit el comercio entre Irlanda del Norte y la República de Irlanda era sencillo ya que ambas estaban dentro de la Unión Europea y compartían la misma regulación. Cuando Irlanda del Norte abandonó la Unión junto al resto del Reino Unido era necesario resolver esta cuestión, ya que la normativa europea requiere controles fronterizos de todas las mercancías que entren desde países extracomunitarios. Algo similar sucedió en Gibraltar y en Chipre, las otras dos fronteras terrestres del Reino Unido con la Unión Europea, pero allí se resolvió de forma más rápida. En Irlanda, además, existía un acuerdo previo que impedía fijar una frontera. Para solucionar el problema Boris Johnson aceptó de mala gana un protocolo que, desde el punto de vista comercial, sacaba a Irlanda del Norte del Reino Unido creando una frontera en el mar de Irlanda. La inspección y el control de aduanas se llevan a cabo en Irlanda del Norte ocasionando infinidad de problemas y demoras. Esto había creado un gran disgusto entre los habitantes del Ulster y, especialmente, en el partido unionista, el DUP, que reclamaba a Londres romper el protocolo aún a riesgo de que eso ocasionaría el cierre de la frontera entre las dos Irlandas. El propio Boris Johnson amenazó incluso con ignorar el protocolo ocasionando un agrio enfrentamiento con las autoridades comunitarias. Hacía falta por lo tanto renovar ese acuerdo para facilitar el comercio. Con el protocolo de Windsor se crean dos carriles comerciales. Uno de color verde destinado a productos cuyo destino final sea Irlanda del Norte. Otro de color rojo cuyo destino sea la república de Irlanda, es decir, la Unión Europea. En el norte se seguirá aplicando parte de la regulación comunitaria, aunque se introduce el llamado freno de Stormont, un mecanismo que activaría la Asamblea de Irlanda del Norte en el caso de que alguna regulación europea vaya en contra de la legislación local. El sistema, como vemos, sigue siendo complejo y necesariamente insatisfactorio para ambas partes. Los unionistas quieren una separación completa, los europeístas la unión entre las dos Irlandas y la reintegración del Ulster en la Unión Europea. No se sabe aún cómo se va a controlar el contrabando de forma efectiva ya que el acuerdo confía en la buena fe de los británicos. Pero, de cualquier modo, este nuevo protocolo supone un avance sobre lo que había y, lo más importante de todo, inaugura una nueva era en las relaciones entre el Reino Unido y la Unión Europea, que llevan años bajo cero. La desconfianza es la tónica general y los enfrentamientos por infinidad de asuntos son la norma. Para Rishi Sunak, un ferviente partidario del Brexit desde antes del referéndum, es un alivio que le permite dirigir su atención sobre otros problemas más apremiantes. Para Ursula von del Leyen el protocolo de Windsor es el primer paso para la normalización de las relaciones con el Reino Unido, algo que viene persiguiendo desde que llegó a la presidencia de la Comisión Europea hace ya más de tres años.

Gibraltar School is asking voters to approve a $29.8 million referendum to renovate and reconstruct the aging portions of the high school and the middle school gym. Superintendent Brett Stousland and school board president Stephen Seyfer join Myles Dannhausen Jr. to talk about the project.
A principios del año 711 un ejército de unos 7.000 hombres al mando del general Táriq Ibn Ziyad cruzó el estrecho de Gibraltar y desembarcó en la bahía de Algeciras. Táriq y la mayor parte de su tropa eran bereberes, un pueblo nativo del Magreb, que unos años antes había sido sometido por los guerreros musulmanes llegados desde el otro extremo del Mediterráneo. Consiguieron establecer una cabeza de playa junto al peñón que hoy lleva el nombre de Táriq y recibieron numerosos refuerzos, esta vez capitaneados por Musa Ibn Nusair, el valí árabe de Ifriquiya. Ese sería el comienzo de la conquista islámica de la península ibérica que, en unos pocos años, marcaría el ocaso del reino visigodo de Toledo que había nacido a principios del siglo VI tras la implosión del imperio romano de Occidente. Tras consolidar la posición, los ejércitos de Musa y Táriq pasaron al ataque internándose en el territorio en sucesivas escaramuzas para tantear las defensas hispanogodas y su capacidad de resistir. No era la primera vez que el reino godo sufría una agresión externa, pero los hombres de Táriq y Musa estaban decididos a llegar hasta el final. No sólo estaba de su lado la determinación, también la crisis que atravesaba el reino visigodo, azotado por la inestabilidad política y los recurrentes problemas económicos. Los invasores avanzaron con paso firme por lo que hoy es la provincia de Cádiz obligando al rey Rodrigo a desplazarse desde el norte de la península para devolverles de vuelta a África. Pero no lo iba a tener fácil. El reino estaba exhausto y las divisiones internas eran la norma. En el mes de julio los ejércitos de Táriq y Rodrigo se vieron las caras en la batalla de Guadalete. La derrota de los visigodos fue estrepitosa franqueando a los invasores todo el valle del Guadalquivir, sobre el que no tardaron en derramarse a una velocidad asombrosa. Tomaron Sevilla y luego las fuerzas invasoras se dividieron en dos ejércitos. Uno siguió el curso del río para apoderarse de Córdoba, el otro tomó dirección norte para hacerse con Mérida. Pero la capital goda no estaba en ninguna de estas dos ciudades, sino en Toledo, en el curso medio del Tajo, una antigua ciudad romana muy bien amurallada que los monarcas visigodos habían escogido como corte siglos antes. Toledo cayó unos meses más tarde y tras ella vendrían los principales centros urbanos de la península. Todo en apenas cuatro años. La rápida conquista islámica de la Hispania goda alumbró décadas más tarde un emirato al que llamaron Al Ándalus, que perviviría en diferentes formas durante cerca de ocho siglos. La rapidez de la conquista musulmana en la segunda década del siglo VIII es una de las grandes incógnitas históricas que los especialistas tratan de explicarse desde hace mucho tiempo. No abundan las fuentes, pero si se ha conseguido reconstruir de forma precisa lo que ocurrió en aquellos años. Los invasores emplearon la violencia, los saqueos y no escatimaron atrocidades, pero también hubo rendiciones pacíficas, pactos voluntarios de vasallaje por parte de la nobleza local que, a cambio de mantener sus privilegios y sus costumbres, aceptó de mejor o peor gana a los nuevos amos. Para tratar este tema, que es uno de los acontecimientos más importantes de la historia de Europa, nos acompaña hoy en La ContraHistoria Yeyo Balbás, un historiador santanderino autor de uno de los mejores libros sobre la conquista musulmana de la península ibérica: “Espada, hambre y cautiverio”, de obligada lectura si se quiere conocer a fondo un periodo breve pero muy turbulento que sirvió como parteaguas en la historia de la península. - "Espada, Hambre y Cautiverio" de Yeyo Balbás - https://amzn.to/3XEnfAx · Canal de Telegram: https://t.me/lacontracronica · “La ContraHistoria de España.

Ep #170 - The space between your being stimulate/triggered and the action you take will determine how grounded you are in your emotional intelligence or how many people you might have to apologize to for your actions. That time, from stimulus to action, is going to make or break your career, relationships, and even yourself, because the way you treat you in your own head has a direct correlation to how you behave on the outside. Let's not be the plastic bag, at the whims of the wind, and instead let us develop the rock of Gibraltar mentality - where we are less swayed by external forces, rather we are grounded in our knowingness that we are human and mistakes happen. We don't have to be rude to ourselves about it. Just hit play and let's dive in with our open minds, hearts, and energies bringing everyone into the fold - you are in the right place, at the right time...right now. It is time. It has been time.

Between 1939 and 1947, the Caribbean island of Jamaica--then a British colony--was haven or detention centre for thousands of displaced Europeans; an often under-recognized contribution to the Allied war effort. A civilian camp accommodated evacuees from Gibraltar and, belatedly, provided sanctuary for groups of mainly Jewish refugees. Others who had fled Europe ahead of looming fascist threats would be interned in military detention camps whose populations were swollen by German and Italian civilians from several British West African colonies, co-mingled for convenience with hundreds of German and Italian merchant mariners captured at sea during the early months of the war. Suzanne Francis-Brown's book World War II Camps in Jamaica: Refugees, Internees, Prisoners of War (U West Indies Press, 2022) disentangles the conditions under which these various populations were held, drawing on primary records, personal accounts and media coverage; noting differences and similarities in their management; considering the camps and their populations within the local context; and considering the extent of interface and interaction that ensued despite official efforts to keep the incoming populations separate and transitory.

Su estratégica ubicación en la costa sur del estrecho de Gibraltar ha otorgado a Ceuta un papel central en la historia de la navegación. Aquí se levanta, según el relato mitológico, la más meridional de las columnas de Hércules, el lugar donde se unen y separan dos continentes y dos inmensas masas de agua: el océano Atlántico y el mar Mediterráneo. La actriz Eva Isanta, caballa de nacimiento (ese es el gentilicio cariñoso de los ceutíes), nos acompaña en un paseo por la ciudad autónoma cargado de recuerdos de infancia. Nuestra ruta comienza en el puerto, atraviesa el foso y las murallas reales para explorar la península que sostiene este trocito de España en el norte de África. Contamos con la ayuda de los guías oficiales Keke Raggio y Toñi Paublete para comprender la historia y los espacios naturales de Ceuta; desde sus abundantes y variopintas playas hasta los acantilados, bosques, fortalezas y miradores que salpican el monte Hacho y el paraje de García Aldave. Se unen también a este viaje Fernando Villada, arqueólogo del Instituto de Estudios Ceutíes, y José Luis Gómez Barceló, cronista oficial de la ciudad. Además, el director del Parque Marítimo del Mediterráneo, Rafael Montero, nos abre las puertas de este refrescante paraíso de lagunas diseñado por el artista lanzaroteño César Manrique.

Kate Adie presents stories from Pakistan Ukraine, Gibraltar, Uzbekistan and Namibia More than 100 people were killed in an attack targeting police in a high security mosque in the northern city of Peshawar in Pakistan earlier this week. An investigation is now underway as to how the bomber managed to enter the high-security zone. Caroline Davies went to the city and met some of the survivors. Ukraine's President, Volodymyr Zelensky has launched a anti-corruption drive, which led to the resignation of several government and regional ministers. James Waterhouse was in Kyiv and said the upheaval marked a shift in the government's narrative, with a new focus on accountability. Gibraltar, the British territory which borders Spain, remains deeply patriotic despite its geographical location. Joe Inwood met the chief minister there and discovered how a simple mispronunciation opened up deeper cultural differences. We visit Samarkand in Uzbekistan, for centuries a major trading hub on the Silk Road. But under the former President Islam Karimov, the country experienced economic stagnation and isolation. His successor is trying to revive the economy by boosting tourism. Heidi Fuller-Love went to visit a shiny new complex near Samarkand - a different world from the heritage sites of the old city. And Stephen Moss explores the sand dunes of the Namib desert - one of the most arid places on earth. He finds that, although Chinese investment in nearby Walvis Bay is reaping returns, the wider ecosystem is under threat.

The Corporation Of The City Of London• City of London, municipal corporation and borough, London, England. Sometimes called “the Square Mile,” it is one of the "33" boroughs that make up the large metropolis of Greater London. The borough lies on the north bank of the River Thames between the Temple Bar memorial pillar (commemorating the old Temple Bar gate) and the base of Tower Hill. The City Corporation is Britain's oldest local government; it has the status of a county, with powers that exceed those of London's "32" other boroughs, notably the control of its own police force. “The City,” as it is known, is only a component, relatively small in area, of the larger urban area known as London. Its area corresponds closely to that of the ancient city from which modern London has grown. The City belongs geographically to the historic county of Middlesex, but its special status and privileges gave it autonomy from that county for most of its history. Britannica The Latin motto of the City is Domine dirige nos, which translates as "Master, direct (guide) us". It appears to have been adopted in the 17th century, as the earliest record of it is in 1633. A banner of the arms (the design on the shield) is flown as a flag of the City. 14 dragon statues guarding the city of London. Many other depictions of Dragons adorn various buildings. Some inside, & some on the outer structure. Two at the main gates of the city. The crest of the city has the two dragons with the white shield and a Red Cross, & sword. The cross, & sword resemble upside down crosses. The official explanation says the crest is an homage to St. George was depicted in a fictional story saving a princess from a dragon. The story was loosely based on St. George being a Templar Knight, & is often depicted in armor riding a stallion. The Knight's Templar flags were also white with red crosses. https://londonist.com/london/secret/dragon Must Watch!

Freemasonry is predominant in the square mile. The honorable Lord Mayor of the city is closely aligned with Freemasonry, & many Lord Mayors have been Masons. As many as 5000 Freemasons March in the yearly parade celebrating the election of the new Lord Mayor. The alleged oldest Masonic Lodge is located in the city. Author Stephen Knight wrote two detailed books about the influence of Freemasonry in London. He focused especially on the various police forces, & how Masonry had created a true good ole boy network which allowed numerous criminal acts to go unpunished. Stephen explains a little bit about the structure of government in the city.

I have also stated that the British Monarch is not the Crown. The Crown is the Inner City of London, which is an independent State in London belonging to the Vatican system. It is a banking cartel which has a massive system around and beneath, which hides its true power. The City is in fact the Knights Templar Church, also known as the Crown Temple or Crown Templar, and is located between Fleet Street and Victoria Embankment. The Temple grounds are also home to the Crown Offices at Crown Office Row. The Crown Temple controls the Global'Legal'system, including those in the United States, Canada,Australia, and much more; this is because all Bar Associations are franchises of the International Bar Association at the Inns of Court at Crown Temple based at Chancery Lane in London. All Bar Associations are franchises of the Crown and all Bar Attorneys/ Barristers throughout the world pledge a solemn oath to the Temple, even though many may not be aware that this is what they are doing. Bar Association 'licensed' Solicitors / Barristers must keep to their Oath, Pledge and terms of allegiance to the Crown Te
