While King Alfonso X is absent from the Iberian peninsula, Muhammad of Grenada invades Castile - leaving the kingdom scrambling to defend itself.
From the BBC World Service: Chinese carmaker BYD has been slashing prices at home to dominate the market. BYD only relatively recently expanded into international markets and, last year, sold more electric cars worldwide than Tesla. This all has existing established manufacturers in Europe and elsewhere very worried. Plus, we'll head to Spain to hear how the country's olive oil and Iberian ham producers are thinking about American tariffs.

"The German monster has survived too long" opined Le Soir on 21 June 1984. And that was one of the more sober conclusions. After the way France's World Cup had ended, schadenfreude was not in short supply when the reigning European Champions went home before the real action started. It was also one of the two games that was shown live in the UK. Jonathan O'Brien joins Martyn to make sense of Group 2 with a surprise Iberian challenge and a disappointingly restrictive Romania.

This has indeed been an interesting week. To begin with, a lot of clarity has been coming my way about the nature of the split, the light/dark paradigm, the light-paradigm and the dark-paradigm.The plays on our experience, the way in which the dark side reacts to light impinging into their realms, and how things can go when meeting and working with folk who have a foot on each side of the light - dark split.I was meditating on the meaning of Walkwithmenow.com (WWMN). For those of you who don't know, WWMN is my online platform. It is dedicated to wisdom seekers and keepers, a way to directly interact with the individuals on the known Earth who are fearless, authoritative, strong in their independent, sovereign path, and have a strong sense of mission.The team and I have had to overcome a mountain of firewalls, limiting programs and untold barriers to not just form WWMN in 2014, but also to keep it going for the past 11 years.I didn't want to form WWMN to begin with, but I did it as a leap of faith at the request of our larger awareness, the human collective.“Well,” I thought, “if the human collective thinks we are ready for an incorruptible group, I will surely give it a go.”If the thought of WWMN insults you in any way, or makes you afraid that it is a cult (laugh), run. Unsubscribe, remove yourself from my list and my field of awareness.If you are still reading, wondering why I would not just write that sentence above, but fill it with mystical force (did you feel it?) then here is the reason: WWMN is not created for or by victim minded individuals. If a person puts me or calls me a cult leader, pushing all their victim/aggressor energy upon me, then they are the person I have zero interest in. That person does not believe in independent thought, sovereign power, mature awareness, or the capacity for wisdom keepers continuing to seek wisdom and banding together to create the new Al-Andalu on the Earth. They do not believe in the human collective's choice of a new reality upon this Earth.Of course when I say Al-Andalu I am not just talking about the Iberian regions controlled by the muslims in the 1700s. I am talking about something different that is often scrubbed from our historical education and records. For a while, just south Castilla in modern Spain, and spanning across all of the Iberian peninsula were cities where education, art, engineering, alchemy and all forms of human innovation and growth was encouraged and protected. It didn't matter if you were a Druid, Celt, Christian, Muslim, or what race or color your skin was, you were able to live in harmony with others of the same inclination of discovery and expansion of awareness in safety.How long this construct lasted, and what was achieved within it is a matter of record, albeit hard to find records on forgotten libraries within cities and towns in the geographical region where it once existed. How the experiment of this face of Al-Andalu ended was in blood and destruction. Yet, it left an energy behind, a spirit, one might think, of how things could be among those people who saw beyond small matters of race or religion and united in the spirit of human innovation, art and progress.WWMN is no Al-Andalu. No. It is only a seed, whereas Al-Andalu was a forest. This seed, however, is powerful and spans the entire Earth. My and my team simply provides water, food for thought, and light, and the seed grows.But, we need to grow from one seedling into a forest. That is why I invite you to join others of your ilk at WWMN and begin to be counted. You can stay a lone wolf, independent in thought and action and, at the same time, be part of something greater than the sum of its parts.The classes I have released in the past ten years, as well as thousands of insights and explorations of reality in the forum, as well as other high-caliber men and women to study and explore reality with, is all within my platform. All available to you from day one.If you are in any way afraid that I am inviting you over here to exploit you, don't join because you are still carrying the programs of victimhood which are not compatible with the nature of my teachings. Do you feel manipulated by my words thinking I say them to create FOMO and a challenge? No, I am not doing that. I literally feel you are better served elsewhere. My teachings and my platform are not for you. If my words made you giggle and clearly understood where I am coming from, welcome! I can't wait to meet you in person.This week, on DrivingToTheRez.com, Larry and I will be talking to two of our Second Hour panelists Dr. Kara, and Ash, as they meet up with other WWMN members in no other than the land where the mystical, magical Al-Andalu existed all those centuries ago. Let's see what these mystics have to say about their trip, their meetings with online friends, co-explorers of reality, powerful and high-caliber individuals, and the conclusions they have come up with regarding the unification of wisdom seekers and keepers, sovereign individuals across the world.The discussion doesn't stop here—listen to the full podcast episode for unfiltered insights from Inelia and our panelists.

A blackout of historic proportions on the Iberian peninsula April 28 has sparked a debate on responsibility and prevention, while the investigation into the causes is ongoing. One undeniable conclusion is that investments in grids are becoming more important, S&P Global Commodity Insights analysts Kerry Thacker-Smith and Alexandre Mace explain on this episode of Energy Evolution. Albéric Mongrenier, executive director of think tank European Initiative for Energy Security, argues that grids have become a key frontier in Europe's push for more independence and security.

Repasamos nuevos discos que nos hacen viajar por sonoridades célticas, desde Escocia, Norteamérica y Polonia. Por tierras ibéricas escuchamos cantos en catalán y en castellano, para saltar después al corazón de la Amazonia, para bailar cumbia en Perú, y entonar cantos indígenas en Brasil. Tras una escala en Buenos Aires, nuestro destino musical está en Italia, con conexiones norteafricanas y, de nuevo, ibéricas. We review new albums that take us on a journey through Celtic sounds, from Scotland, North America and Poland. Across Iberian lands we hear songs in Catalan and Spanish, then leap into the heart of the Amazon, to dance to cumbia in Peru, and sing indigenous chants in Brazil.

Iberian Blackout's Renewable Energy Dependency Warning
Around the globe, municipalities are facing a set of challenges managing the impacts of more extreme weather, while addressing aging infrastructure and more chronic issues, such as rising heat and sea levels. There are a set of technologies that can help them to both be aware of the risks and improve planning to work on mitigating them. The Internet of Things (IoT) can play a role in sensing and advances in digital twins can aid in simulating climate-driven events. It's a set of tools that, when applied well, can help to better build resilience. At the same time, the resilience of utility systems are being challenged by tech advances. Power consumption by datacenters is impacting the load on electricity grids. The transition to greater use of renewables is changing grid dynamics and investment is needed to maintain stability. Climate impacts can have differing impacts across society and efforts manage equity are critical. The upcoming webinar will dig into all of this in more detail – join us to continue the conversation!

Emily Colbert Cairns of Salve Regina University and Nieves Romero-Díaz of Mount Holyoke join Jana Byars to talk about Early Modern Maternities in the Iberian Atlantic (Amsterdam University Press, 2024). It is the first volume to emphasize women's personal experiences and their life trajectories as mothers within the Peninsula and across the Atlantic. Although an official discourse that defined the conditions of motherhood emerged in the eighteenth century, before this period there were many different articulations of motherhood through which women negotiated hierarchical relationships, power struggles and alliances. While the individual experiences were unique and depended upon the positionality of race and class, the complexities of being a mother were universal. The wide variety of written and visual documents included in this volume highlight women's voices in the first person along with more subtle references to motherhood as well as silences. This collection broadens our understanding of the complexities of motherhood, addressing the pressures of becoming a mother, miscarriage, the acts of giving birth and lactation and the ordeals of raising children.

This week I go in depth on one of the best value regions of Portugal -- Alentejo. These wines are mainly blends and they are as easy on the palate as they are on the wallet -- a perfect combo! Photo: Vineyards in Alentejo outside of Évora. Credit: WFNP Located in southern Portugal, a two hour drive east of Lisbon, Alentejo is huge -- representing almost one-third of the Iberian nation. Although in the past the region was known only as the breadbasket of Portugal and as the world's largest supplier of cork (nearly half of the world's corks come from Alentejo's cork trees), today the region is experiencing a wine renaissance. After a rocky history, Alentejo has grown and its reputation has expanded with it. Known for fruity, lush and plush red blends (about 75% of the wine) of grapes like Alicante Bouschet, Aragonez (Tempranillo), Trincadeira, Alfrochero, and Castelão, there are some higher end versions that sometimes contain Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot or Syrah as well. The whites are in the minority and are fruity, soft, yet balanced blends as well. The tropical, tangerine noted and soft Antão Vaz is Alentejo's most important white with Arinto used for acidity, Fernão Pires for aroma and soft textures and Roupeiro for aroma as well. Map: Rota dos Vinhos, from the Wines of Alentejo This show covers all the bases on this fascinating region -- from its turbulent history to the climate, terroir, and the many DOPs that each have a distinct identiy.

Hey Strangers, #games #kickstarter #indie MADRID/LISBON, April 28 (Reuters) - Power started returning to parts of the Iberian peninsula late on Monday after a huge outage brought most of Spain and Portugal to a standstill, grounding planes, halting public transport, and forcing hospitals to suspend routine operations.Spain's Interior Ministry declared a national emergency, deploying 30,000 police across the country to keep order as governments from the two countries convened emergency cabinet meetings. Outages on such a scale are extremely rare in Europe.=======================================I had to make a playlist for this lolhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLPn9z2zi8y0ZDNRGzJtPin2V-Ad2K_3bl**************************************************My other podcasthttps://www.youtube.com/channel/UCKpvBEElSl1dD72Y5gtepkw**************************************************article links:https://www.reuters.com/world/europe/large-parts-spain-portugal-hit-by-power-outage-2025-04-28/======================================Today is for push-ups and Programming and I am all done doing push-ups Discordhttps://discord.gg/MYvNgYYFxqTikTokhttps://www.tiktok.com/@strangestcoderYoutubehttps://www.youtube.com/@codingwithstrangersTwitchhttps://www.twitch.tv/CodingWithStrangersTwitterhttps://twitter.com/strangestcoderBlueSkyhttps://bsky.app/profile/strangestcoder.bsky.socialmerchSupport CodingWithStrangers IRL by purchasing some merch.

Can You Run A Grid Without Fossil Fuels? "Yes," says Anders Lindberg, President of Energy and Executive VP at Wärtsilä, on this week's episode of Cleaning Up. It'll just cost €65 trillion extra by 2050. Anders' team at Wärtsilä has recently published its Crossroads to Net Zero report, which argues that keeping a little bit of flexible generation on the grid will save huge amounts of money as the globe strives for net zero, while also speeding up the transition to renewables. The argument centres on what to do with the last few percent of power supply, and what forms of generation need to be built to ensure consistent electricity supply and prevent black or brown outs.Perhaps unsurprisingly for a gas engine manufacturer, Wärtsilä's report makes the case that gas should provide the last few percentage points of electricity generation. Michael Liebreich puts that claim to the test.

rWotD Episode 2932: Pharnavaz II Welcome to Random Wiki of the Day, your journey through Wikipedia's vast and varied content, one random article at a time.The random article for Wednesday, 14 May 2025, is Pharnavaz II.Pharnavaz II (Georgian: ფარნავაზ II) (died 30 BC), of the Artaxiad dynasty, was a king (mepe) of Iberia (Kartli, eastern Georgia) from 63 to 30 BC. He is known as Pharnabazus in Classical sources, and is commonly identified with the Bartom or Bratman of the medieval Georgian chronicles.He succeeded upon the death of his father Artag who had been defeated by the Roman general Pompey in 65 BC. However, Roman hegemony over Iberia proved to be impermanent, and, in 36 BC, the legate Publius Canidius Crassus led his army into Iberia, forcing Parnavaz to make an alliance against Zober, king of neighboring Albania. Canidius and Parnavaz marched to Albania and subdued its people. Incidentally, no Georgian source documents these events reported by Cassius Dio in his Roman History Instead, the Georgian annals concentrates upon the homecoming of Mirvan, the exiled son of Parnajom, who had been brought up in Iran. Mirvan returned to Kartli at the head of an Iranian army, killed Bartom and became a king.Bartom is said to have adopted Kartam, the descendant of Kuji (the alleged ruler of Egrisi in the time of the first Iberian king Parnavaz). But Kartam had also been killed in battle against Mirvan.

Last week, more than 50 million people across mainland Spain and Portugal suffered a blackout that lasted more than 10 hours and shuttered stores, halted trains, and dealt more than $1 billion in economic damage. At least eight deaths have been attributed to the power outage.Almost immediately, some commentators blamed the blackout on the large share of renewables on the Iberian peninsula's power grid. Are they right? How does the number of big, heavy, spinning objects on the grid affect grid operators' ability to keep the lights on? On this week's episode of Shift Key, Jesse and Rob dive into what may have caused the Iberian blackout — as well as how grid operators manage supply and demand, voltage and frequency, and renewables and thermal resources, and operate the continent-spanning machine that is the power grid. Shift Key is hosted by Robinson Meyer, the founding executive editor of Heatmap, and Jesse Jenkins, a professor of energy systems engineering at Princeton University.Mentioned: Spain's Blackout Has Put in Motion a Debate Over InertiaSpain Discloses New Power Grid Failure on Day of the BlackoutShift Key: A Beginner's Guide to the Interconnection QueueJesse's upshift; Rob's upshift.--Music for Shift Key is by Adam Kromelow.

This week, we cover the recent blackout on the Iberian peninsula. Guillem Sanchis Ramirez, a Spanish nuclear engineer and advocate, walks us through the event that plunged over 50 million people into powerlessness and the power grid on which it happened. We cover Spain's precarious dance with renewable energy, its political resistance to nuclear power, possible paths forward for the country's energy supply, and our essential human reliance on stable electrical systems.Note: This interview was recorded on April 30, 2025, still in the midst of the story's rapid development.
On the afternoon of 6 March 1988 in Gibraltar on the southern tip of the Iberian peninsular, Mairead Farrell and two other Provisional IRA volunteers of were shot dead by members of the Special Air Service. The three were on an operation to target one of the last outposts of the British Empire, but their movements were known to the security services. Farrell was one of a small number of female IRA members in an organisation dominated by men. How were mothers, wives, daughters and sisters impacted by the violence over 30 years of conflict in Northern Ireland? And how do they deal with the trauma 25 years after the Good Friday Agreement?

It's a rare case of a species being saved from near-extinction. Twenty years ago, the Iberian lynx was the most threatened feline in the world due to poaching and the animals' natural habitat being turned into farmland. Today, the species is practically out of danger thanks to conservation efforts in Spain. Our correspondents report.

Last Monday at around 12.30 in the afternoon, the Iberian peninsula suffered the worst blackout in Europe over the last decades as 55 million people in Spain, Portugal and parts of south-west France were left without electricity for hours. In Madrid's metro alone, there were 150,000 people travelling on the network when the power went and they were forced to evacuate while many high-speed trains were left stranded in the middle of nowhere on a hot late April day.To discuss the political fallout from last Monday's national outage in more detail, Alan and I are joined by Ben Wray, a Basque based journalist whose work has appeared in Wired Magazine, Jacobin and The National.If you like what we produce, and want more, please think of contributing and making the podcast sustainable going forward: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thesobremey

This week, we unpack a dramatic week for the Iberian energy system. On 28 April, Spain, Portugal, and parts of southern France were plunged into darkness by a massive grid failure, affecting millions of people. We investigate what went wrong.We then turn to Spain's hydrogen sector, where a new offshore pilot project and a national support scheme suggest the momentum for renewable hydrogen is returning. We also unpack updates from Germany's solar and hydrogen sectors, with auction results and new grants on the way.Finally, we examine the implications of Germany's new CDU-led coalition, set to take office under Friedrich Merz. What will this mean for the country's climate targets, hydrogen priorities, and controversial policies on nuclear and heating? Will the new government reset Germany's energy diplomacy on the European stage?Plus: Insight on what to expect at the Financing European Renewables Summit in Madrid this June.Send us a textReach out to us at: podcasts@inspiratia.comFind all of our latest news and analysis by subscribing to inspiratiaListen to all our episodes on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, and other providers.
