Robert Bryce stops by the Energy News Beat and The Energy Question podcasts to discuss the energy crisis, blackouts, and their causes in Spain. This is a huge warning sign for the grid operators and hopefully a wake-up call. Join Robert, David Blackmon, and Stu Turley as we discuss the financial causes and impacts of this historic blackout.Highlights of the Podcast00:01 – Introductions01:36 – Cause of Spain's Blackout03:16 – Media Spin & Denial05:27 – Pre-Warnings Ignored08:31 – Comparison to Texas Blackouts10:32 – Grid Stability Concerns in the US12:37 – Microgrids and Energy Inequality15:02 – Media Coverage Shifts19:22 – Cybersecurity & Grid Hardware22:00 – Transformer Shortage25:13 – US Energy Policy & Nuclear Hope28:16 – Global Nuclear Trends30:04 – Germany's Ideological Influence32:50 – California as a National Risk39:54 – Oil Demand Reality41:02 – Nuclear as Only Viable Zero-Carbon Path42:29 – Manufacturing & LNG Fleet Gaps45:22 – Nuclear Bipartisanship Required48:40 – Floating Nuclear as Export Model53:06 – SMRs: Sizzle vs. Stake56:27 – Closing Remarks

Today we were delighted to host the team from the Bipartisan Policy Center (BPC), a leading Washington NGO dedicated to bringing stakeholders together to address critical policy issues for the U.S. and find areas of alignment for action. Joining us for the session are Margaret Spellings, President and CEO, along with her colleagues David Hill, Executive Vice President of Energy, and Bill Hoagland, Senior Vice President. Margaret became CEO of BPC in 2023 and brings extensive leadership experience at both the state and federal levels, most recently serving as President & CEO of Texas 2036. Earlier in her career, Margaret served as White House Chief Domestic Policy Advisor, Senior Policy Advisor and Secretary of Education under George W. Bush. David has more than 25 years of energy experience, having served as General Counsel of the U.S. DOE and as DOE's Deputy General Counsel for Energy Policy during the Bush administration, as well as Executive Vice President and General Counsel of NRG. Bill focuses on fiscal, health, and economic policy at BPC, following a long tenure on the U.S. Senate Staff and as VP of Public Policy at CIGNA Healthcare before joining BPC in 2012. We were thrilled to visit with Margaret, David, and Bill for their latest insights from Washington. In our conversation, Margaret first outlines the BPC's team structure and its dual focus on research and advocacy through bipartisan engagement on Capitol Hill. We discuss setbacks in U.S. education policy, including how 20 years of bipartisan federal accountability progress under Presidents Bush and Obama have been undone in recent years, highlighting the need to refocus on reading and evidence-based instruction. Bill provides an overview of the U.S. national debt, noting that politically untouchable programs dominate the budget and leave little room for meaningful reform. He flags that interest payments on the debt now exceed defense spending and describes the slow-building debt and energy crises as “termites under the porch,” noting that Washington only acts under strong leadership or in response to crisis. David shares his perspective on the need for durable, stable energy policy and the importance of long-term policy certainty to encourage private sector investment in infrastructure. We explore BPC's efforts to modernize education and workforce policy to reflect today's labor market, how private conversations often reveal more bipartisan consensus than public discourse suggests, and how BPC facilitates those critical dialogues. We also touch on the disconnect between Washington and the rest of the nation, the need to clearly communicate how policy failures impact everyday Americans, the challenges posed by outdated government technology, and much more. Thank you, Margaret, David, and Bill, for sharing your insights and expertise with us all! Mike Bradley kicked us off with a few updates focused on Trump's first 100 days, Canadian election results, and the recent Spain/Portugal power outage. The best word to describe Trump's first 100 days would be volatility, or as we have aptly named it, Trumpatility! The 10yr bond yield has fallen ~40bps (to 4.2%) over this timeframe and the U.S. dollar has depreciated by ~6%. Two commodity standouts are WTI price, which has plunged ~$15/bbl to ~$61/bbl, and gold, up ~22% to ~$3,300/oz. From a broader equity standpoint, the S&P 500 was down ~8%, Nasdaq down ~10% and Russell 2000 down ~14%. The S&P 500 Volatility Index spiked by ~50% (and ~275% at its April 7th volatility peak). The Energy sector was down ~11% with Oil Services down ~28%, E&Ps down ~21%, Refiners down ~15%, U.S. Oil Majors down ~10%, Midstream down ~5% and Alternative Energy up ~5%. Electric Utilities were up ~2% while IPPs/Power Index was down ~18%. Regarding the Canadian election, Mark Carney's Liberal Party eked out a narrow win Monday night against Poilievre's Conservative Party but fell short of a majority in t

Chaos for southwest Europe during a major power blackout. Spain, Portugal, and parts of France went dark yesterday due to an issue with the grid, originating in Spain. Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez says power has now been restored, and they will take all necessary measures to prevent a repeat. Correspondent Gavin Grey told Ryan Bridge cash registers, gas pumps, and credit cards all stopped working. He says it was a very hot day, and people were stuck in lifts and electric trains. Grey says plenty of other countries are now wondering if they'd be resilient enough if the same happened to them. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

There are several curated narratives pertaining to the Crusades. Those narratives dominate not only our understanding of the Medieval Crusades but understandings of the Middle East today. But, what really happened? What initially, and really, motivated Holy Roman Empire Catholics to travel over 1200 miles eastward at the price of great sacrifice? To try to answer those questions we examine some of the history of Muslim expansion. I'll note how long before the Crusades it was that Muslims variously attacked and sacked Rome, Iberia (today's Spain & Portugal), and Jerusalem. Because we believe Jesus is Lord over culture and politics I also discuss President Trump's attempts to disassemble the GBM (Grinding Bureaucratic Machine). Along the way I tell some jokes, offer a tiny bit of health advice, and reflect on the horrors at work inside of contemporary Syria. Come laugh and think with me.

Join us as we step into the dazzling world of Sephardic Jewry during the Golden Age; an era of tolerance and thriving creativity. Meet legendary figures like Shmuel HaNagid, Moses de Leon, and Maimonides, whose groundbreaking works - along with the rich cultural exchange between Jews and Muslims - sparked the remarkable flourishing of Sephardic Jewish civilization. Who were these Sephardic Jewish superheroes? How did the Golden Age inspire Jews centuries after the collapse of Jewish life in Iberia? And how “Golden” was the Golden Age?Links for Additional Reading:The Ornament of the World: How Muslims, Jews and Christians Created a Culture of Tolerance in Medieval Spain, Maria Rosa Menocal, PBS SeriesUnder Crescent and Cross: The Jews in the Middle Ages, Mark R.

"2023 va a ser el tercer peor año del siglo XXI en términos económicos"2022 arrancaba como el año de recuperación, de vuelta a los niveles prepandemia, pero los cisnes existen y los mercados se sorprendían con la invasión de Ucrania, poniendo en jaque el tablero internacional, desencadenando una crisis energética de dimensiones entonces desconocidas. Álvaro Antón Luna, Country Head & Head of Distribution Iberia en Abrdn . "La incertidumbre va a estar en la geopolítica y los beneficios empresariales. Como consecuencia de lo que pase, los tipos de interés se irán moviendo al alza o a la baja. Dependiendo de ello, comenzarían a bajar los tipos de interés a finales de 2023 o ya en 2024".Borja Gómez, Director de Análisis de Inverseguros SV del Grupo Dunas Capital. "Un claro condicionante en lo que va a pasar en los mercados van a ser los bancos centrales. Luego hay otro factor vinculado, que es la crisis energética. A día de hoy nos estamos viendo favorecidos por unas temperaturas más diferentes de lo normal, pero eso no va a pasar siempre. En EEUU hemos alcanzado un pico en materia de inflación, y en Europa estamos en ello. La pregunta del millón es cómo de intensa va a ser la ralentización posterior. Eso va a marcar la política de los bancos centrales. Lo que ya no vemos tan claro son los descensos de tipos de cara a finales de año del año que viene. A día de hoy, no vamos a decir que la renta variable está cara, pero sí es verdad que está condicionada por una serie de asunciones que probablemente no se produzcan. Tarde o temprano, los márgenes de las empresas van a tener que contraerse, ya sea por la presión impositiva de los gobiernos o por los precios de la energía u otros factores. Se necesita una corrección para que haya opción de comprar renta variable en 2023".César Muro, Head of Passive Sales, Spain & Portugal at DWS . "Estamos en una era diferente a la que hemos visto en los últimos diez o veinte años. Hay una serie de riesgos que no teníamos antes, como el geopolítico por Rusia o el proteccionismo tecnológico con China. La renta fija empieza a ser muy atractiva después de un año bastante malo. En Europa hay un límite de subidas de tipos por el elevado endeudamiento, las economías no lo pueden aguantar".Jacobo Ortega Vich, Director de Inversiones de Europa de Santander Asset Management. "2023, en términos económicos, va a ser el tercer peor año del siglo XXI. Podemos tener buen recorrido de renta variable y la segunda mitad del año puede ser algo positiva. La apuesta del dólar es un poco controvertida, pero creemos que es el mejor activo refugio en este entorno, a pesar de ser arriesgada la apuesta. Tenemos claro que va a haber una recesión en Europa y EEUU".#especialoutlook2023#outlook2023#crecimientoeconomico #mercados #previsiones2023 #previsioneseconomicas #previsioneseconomicas2023 #crisiseconomica #recuperacioneconomica #inflacion #inflacioneuropa #inflacioneeuu #recesioneuropa #recesion#recesioneeuu Si quieres entrar en la Academia de Negocios TV, este es el enlace: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCwd8Byi93KbnsYmCcKLExvQ/join Síguenos en directo ➡️ https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pSuscríbete a nuestro canal: https://bit.ly/3jsMzp2Visita Negocios TV https://bit.ly/2Ts9V3pMás vídeos de Negocios TV en Youtube: https://bit.ly/3edxt61Síguenos en Telegram: https://t.me/negociostvSíguenos en Instagram: https://bit.ly/3oytWndTwitter: https://bit.ly/3jz6LptFacebook: https://bit.ly/3e3kIuy

In the final round-of-16 episode of the 2022 World Cup on ZFL, Zeno reacts to Morocco defeating the Spanish in a shocking penalty shoot-out, and Portugal (featuring a Gonçalo Ramos hat-trick, the first one of this tournament) putting on an absolute clinic against the usually solid Switzerland. NOTE: I might have gotten a bit carried away there by saying that Morocco's performance was one of the greatest in World Cup history, BUT I'm sure the Moroccans probably agree with me, plus they are only the 4th African side (1st North African) to reach this stage.

The first four Round of 16 matches delivered excitement, if not many surprises. The Soccer Sharps got clobbered on their plays for the Netherlands v USA match, but from then on, it was pretty smooth sailing. Of course, there was the miserable bad beat at the end of the France v Poland match, which blew the bets of many gamblers on Sunday, but the less said about that, the better. Devin and Jordan are back to preview the remaining four Round of 16 matchups, sharing their best bets for each.

GB2RS News Sunday the 13th of November 2022 The news headlines: Transatlantic Centenary Tests A Signal Across Space RSGB Convention Videos   The RSGB is hosting the Transatlantic Centenary Tests 2022 on the HF bands for the month of December. Unlike those of the 1920s, which consisted of one-way communication, this event will encourage worldwide two-way communication with UK and Crown Dependency stations. There will be a series of awards available for making QSOs with those who are activating historic RSGB call signs. The Club Log team has kindly agreed to provide the supporting infrastructure for this. The Society is looking for RSGB members to take part and make this historic event a success. You can read more on page 54 of the December RadCom and be inspired by the RSGB Convention Transatlantic Test presentation on the RSGB YouTube channel. To find out how to take part, go to rsgb.org/transatlantic-tests The Wales Millennium Centre is hosting a 360-degree virtual reality experience inspired by the wireless signals Marconi and Kemp exchanged between Flat Holm Island and Lavernock Point in 1897. Called ‘A Signal Across Space', the experience takes the audience on a multi-layered journey that includes the history, mythology, language and nature of the area surrounding Lavernock. RSGB Regional Representative Glyn Jones, GW0ANA recorded a talk about Marconi which appears in snippets throughout the piece. In Welsh and English, it runs until the 20th of November and is free but you need to book tickets in advance. Go to www.wmc.org.uk and search for ‘A Signal Across Space'. The RSGB has just released two videos that feature a wide range of interesting interviews that took place at its recent convention. In the first, you can hear from three amateur radio Presidents, RSGB Board members and other volunteers, as well as representatives of the European Space Agency and AMSAT-UK. The RadCom team introduce themselves, Convention attendees explain what they were looking forward to, and the RSGB General Manager and Convention Chair, Steve Thomas M1ACB, talks about the importance of the event. The second video focuses on the RSGB-affiliated special interest groups and introduces RSGB SIG Manager Philip Hosey, MI0MSO. It was great to talk to them all and find out what they do and how you can get involved. You can find both videos in the RSGB 2022 Convention playlist on the Society's YouTube channel at youtube.com/theRSGB The Bath Based Distance Learning team has helped over a thousand students to pass UK amateur radio exams with pass rates consistently above the national average. Their next course will be for the Intermediate level and it will run from January to May 2023. The deadline for applications is the 7th of December 2022. There will be no charge for the training but students will need to provide their own textbook, scientific calculator, electronic parts and tool kit. As well as weekly work packages via a virtual classroom, there will be weekly online tutorials, revision quizzes and lots of practical exercises to bring the theory to life. Students will also have access to one of the remote tutors who will provide feedback and additional guidance when required. As part of the application process, there will be some pre-course work to ensure students are able to use the online learning systems and ensure they are ready to study in January. To find out more and receive course application details, email Team Leader Steve, G0FUW via g0fuw@bbdl.org.uk  The team will also run a Full Licence course, which will start in August 2023, but a further announcement will be made when that course is ready for enrolment. The RSGB's National Radio Centre at Bletchley Park will be closed from Tuesday the 22nd of November until Friday the 25th of November for the upgrading of essential equipment and the installation of a new fire alarm system. The Society apologises for any inconvenience this causes. Earlier in the year, the RSGB was approached by the BBC to find experts to contribute to two episodes of its planned series, ‘The Secret Genius of Modern Life'. In this week's episode, Neil Smith, G4DBN re-created the Great Seal Bug. The RFID technology developed for the bug is what allows contactless card payments to work. You can catch up with the programme on BBC iPlayer. And now for details of rallies and events The Rochdale and District Amateur Radio Winter Rally will take place on Saturday the 19th of November. The venue will be Saint Vincent De Paul's Hall, Norden, Rochdale OL12 7QR. Doors open at 10 am with entry for £3. The usual traders and caterers will be there and plenty of free parking is available.

Using all modes, the exchange is signal report, serial number and locator. On Wednesday the 16th of November, the Autumn Series SSB Contest runs from 2000 to 2130UTC.

Using CW only, the exchange is signal report, serial number and District Code. Now the radio propagation report, compiled by G0KYA, G3YLA, and G4BAO on Friday the 11th of November 2022 Last week was a mixed bag in terms of space weather. Yes, the solar flux index increased to 138 by Thursday the 10th, but at the same time, we had a fast solar wind and a solar flare from active region AR 3141 to contend with. The Kp index hit five on Monday the 7th after a prolonged period with the Bz component of the interplanetary magnetic field pointing south. When the Bz points south it more easily couples with the Earth's magnetic field, allowing solar plasma to flood in. The Bz component of the IMF then shifted north, which helped conditions improve over the week. In fact, the Kp index was down to zero for the latter half of Wednesday and Thursday. With no coronal holes, this was about as good as it could get for HF and the bands didn't disappoint. The MUF over a 3,000km path reached 38MHz around lunchtime on Thursday. DX worked from the UK including A35GC in Tonga, 7X3WPL in Algeria and P29RO in Papua New Guinea. The KQ2H 10m FM repeater on 29.620MHz is acting like a beacon this Autumn, often hitting S9 plus in the early afternoon. Running 1.5kW from the Catskill Mountains in upstate New York, it is a good indicator of trans-Atlantic conditions. Next week NOAA predicts that the solar flux index will decline a little, placing it in the region of 120. Geomagnetic conditions may remain settled, at least until the 18th when NOAA predicts the Kp index could rise to five. That said, it would only take a solar flare, and associated coronal mass ejection, from one of the large sunspots visible at the moment to spoil things. And now the VHF and up propagation news The main weather theme for this weekend is the very long moist airflow from the Azores to the UK and onwards to western Scandinavia. Because high pressure will be just to the east of the UK at first this will probably lead to some potentially long-range Tropo conditions from western Europe down to the Canaries and Spain/Portugal. A cold front will probably cut the Azores out of the best conditions. However, we should also be able to make use of good conditions into Europe and particularly across the North Sea to southern Scandinavia and perhaps parts of the Baltic. All this is fine until the next change-over to unsettled weather rolls in from the Atlantic on Monday night and during Tuesday. After then, it will be windy with rain or showers and a small chance of some fast-moving rain-scatter from heavy showers. The Leonids meteor shower peaks on Thursday the 17th, plus expect an encounter with a dust trail on November the 19th. It's predicted to occur at around 0600UTC with a short-lived high ZHR between 50 and 200, but activity level is uncertain. This is a good week to check out meteor scatter options and there have continued to be some occasional reminders that the solar conditions are capable of sending some higher Kp indices our way with an attendant chance of auroral conditions, so stay alert to the Kp index values. The Moon is at maximum declination so we have long Moon windows and zenith angles up to 65 degrees in the UK. Path losses are still low but with apogee today, path losses are at their highest. 144MHz sky noise is low all week. And that's all from the propagation team this week.

Virginia Irurita, founder and executive partner of Made for Spain & Portugal, a luxury destination management company specializing in custom private journeys in Spain and Portugal, talks with Alan Fine of Insider Travel Report about how a tour of Barcelona is possible for someone with impaired mobility. Irurita's company has safely put a wheelchair on a hot air balloon, so it was comparatively easy for them to assemble a wheelchair, a chauffeured Mercedes, and an art historian to guide us on a visit to Barcelona's Gothic quarter, Picasso's museum, Gaudi's apartments and La Sagrada Familia. Irurita also talks about what's new and hot in Spain and Portugal. For more information, visit www.madeforspainandportugal.com.

Will God answer your prayer if you don't end with, "In Jesus' name, Amen?" Learn what praying in the name of Jesus really means. I taught this week on the call of Abraham and the development of God's missionary call through the nation of Israel as they were responsible to communicate the truth of God to the cultures around them. They were given that great commission. The great commission didn't start in Matthew 28. It started with Abraham in Genesis 12 —the first three verses there —Abraham, chosen by God to raise up a nation who would then be God's priests to the world so that they would be a blessing to all of the nations. They had a unique role in the great monotheistic religion. The Jews were supposed to reflect morality to the world. Israel was to witness to the name of God. When they talked about the name of God and witnessing to God's name, that does not mean that they were to let everybody know what they called God, "Yahweh." Their goal wasn't to cover the countryside with evangelists who just let everybody know what the right word for God was. It meant something different. ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ https://linktr.ee/jacksonlibon -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #realtalk #face #instagram #amour #take #couple #dance #dancers #vogue #voguedqnce #garden #tiktok #psychology #beyou #near #love #foryou #money #ForYouPizza #fyp #irobot #theend #pups #TikToker #couplegoals #famille #relation #doudou #youtube #twitter #tiktokers #love #reeĺs #shorts #instagood #follow #like #ouy #oyu #babyshark #lilnasx #girl #happybirthday #movie #nbayoungboy #deviance #autotrader #trading #khan #academy #carter #carguru #ancestry #accords #abc #news #bts #cbs #huru #bluebook #socialmedia #whatsapp #music #google #photography #memes #marketing #india #followforfollowback #likeforlikes #a #insta #fashion #k #trending #digitalmarketing #covid #o #snapchat #socialmediamarketing H

The Autumn Nations Series is well under way. There have been some blow outs, mixed with some exciting score lines as well. The series is broadcasted and sold via streaming services differently in each country. Amazon Prime has it's hand in the live rights pot, and is taking on more and more rugby. Here in the US, the streaming service that seems to have all the rugby rights wrapped into their current contracts is FloRugby. While the average American rugger doesn't like hitting a paywall (FloRugby charges monthly, but also offers $55 for an annual subscription), it's not that hard to borrow a login / password and select which International Test suits you the best (surely everyone shares their streaming passwords right?). Regardless of your Login / Password acquisition prowess ..., most games are quickly uploaded to Youtube and highlights are immediately released. Too much test footy not to carve aside some time over the next two days and feast (on food, and on watching rugby). Here's a quick wrap up of last week's International action: - Scotland stun Australia - South Africa squeak by Wales - The Italians show some fight against the mighty All Blacks - Ireland quietly cruises against Japan - The French outduel Argentina - Fiji finish out Spain - Portugal beat Canada - Romania humble red hot Uruguay

Hey, hello & welcome to episode 002 of Chew The Chat Podcast with Sam Souls. This episode is part 2 of 2. It's a fascinating story continued with our guest Matthew Frost. Matthew is the founder and owner of Function First Martial Arts Academy. Off to Europe he went on his release, sound system in tow helping to build a lively, high octane scene with moments of life changing impact from Spain & Portugal to Germany & Poland. Matthew experienced some serious violence and after his friend was attacked and stabbed in Spain, he fled to Portugal and it wasn't long before trouble found him once more and Matthew had a gun put to his head, his partner was shot and so he decided to bring his travelling party back home.Ultimately burning out and in need of some soul searching introspection on his arrival back to the UK he carried on and expanded his Free party empire but he was fading mentally and now with hindsight it became clear he was suffering with PTSD. He began to repair his perspective and re build his energy levels and his confidence after finding martial arts. In true Punk DIY approach Matthew realigned his energy and turned his back on the party lifestyle, he began a martial arts journey that led him to running a very successful full-time academy with five full-time staff and now complete with a float centre and cryotherapy facility his Academy is a leading light in the UK. Matthew also uses that Punk ethic and energy within his dealings on the stock exchange and renovating houses and snowboarding. His deep fascination with learning new things and creativity continues to thrive and inspire. Enjoy this part 2 guys it's an inspiring white knuckle bus ride that concludes with a lovely ending!

Spain, Portugal, Morocco, and Iran are previewed, as Austin Miller is joined by Henry Bushnell, Sina Saemian, and Benjamin Hajji of Maghrib Foot to take a look at Group B.

We explore European monarchs’ early quest to consolidate royal power and establish their subjects’ direct loyalty to the crown. In particular, we trace the early triumphs and slow declines of the Spanish and Portuguese monarchs, driven by the pioneering ambitions of Isabella of Castile, Philip II of Spain, John II of Portugal, and the formidable Marques de Pombal. We also examine the workings of the Spanish Inquisition, which served as a crucial cornerstone of the modern bureaucratic state, with its systems of mass surveillance, ideological propaganda, and obsession with extracting confessions from the accused.

We’re back for Season Five with lots of fun stuff to tell you! First -- tune in for a BIG announcement about our next Great Love Getaway in Puerto Vallarta, and then head to our vacation page to find out how to join us on the trip. This week’s show is a story-filled recap of everything we learned on our anniversary trip to Morocco, Spain + Portugal in September. Adventure lovers will learn from our silly mistakes and seasoned travelers will laugh at all the ridiculous blunders... A must-listen for anyone who missed our insta-stories and is dying to hear (or willing to tolerate) the full rundown.   Meanwhile -- we’re so excited to be back for another season and thank you so much to our generous Great Love Gang who is making this show possible! Find out how to get involved on the support page of our site and don’t forget to come hang out on twitter and instagram while you listen! QUICK BITES: Check out the highlights of our Summer Travel Series for the full itinerary and all of our BEST adventure tips. If Tomorrow Gerard has a problem, then Tomorrow Jessie has a problem too. (Unfortunately, Today Gerard likes to save money without thinking of the consequences and that can sometimes cause a lot of problems for both of them.) Jessie’s new favorite travel sleeping contraption is called a trtl pillow and the irony of that name is not lost on either one of us. The Peppers packed for two whole weeks in just two tiny carry-ons! Proof that when you pair a stylist with an actuary, they can combine their packing powers for the good of suitcases everywhere. Our trip to The Blue City of Chefchaouen got cancelled after a rough night on the overnight train. Jessie’s refuses to rest her head on any questionable surfaces so she MacGuyvered herself a sleeping situation using some extra flat sheets and her trusty leather backpack. Who doesn’t love sleeping on a mattress that reminds you of a greasy-spoon diner booth?! (Jessie doesn’t. In case that isn’t clear from the episode or the sarcasm of this question.) If you ever find yourself on the coast of Central Portugal, please go try the buttered cheese and pesto from Azenhas do Mar. If you ever find yourself eating too much buttered cheese at Azenhas do Mar, we recommend chasing it with a digestive enzyme and a couple of charcoal pills. Despite any rumors you may have heard, Jessie has NOT switched over to Team Nap. Gerard hates to leave a country with their local currency, so Jessie has gotten quite good at spending it out to the very last dirham. Lessons From Our Anniversary Adventure:  Sometimes it’s ok to pay a little extra money to fly direct. We could all probably stand to do a lot less laundry in our lives Switzerland is really expensive. Never force your wife to ride on an overnight train in Morocco. It’s always ok to change your plans in the middle of the trip. Sometimes it’s worth it to go with the flow and change your plans at the last minute. Never ever (4x) travel without antibacterial wipes. The world isn’t going to end if you occasionally indulge in really good bread while on vacation. Check the weather before you go on special excursions, and be flexible on dates in order to make it work. The world would be a better place if everyone anchored their days around a siesta. Always change your money to the local currency if you want to get the best exchange rate. Getting outside your typical routine is a great way to experience special moments with your partner. TRIGGER QUESTIONS:  Which is worse? Being stuck in a small airplane seat for a short amount of time OR having extra leg room in a big seat for a really long flight with lots of layovers? What is your all time favorite food indulgence that you reserve especially for travel or other special occasions. Where is the best spot in your neighborhood to take a blanket and a bottle of wine for date night?

In this week’s show our guest is David Ramírez, a former Counselor to the Board of Directors for Congregation Ess Hayim – the Spanish and Portuguese Jews of Houston. He is an independent researcher on Sephardic history and currently lives in Mexico. Our topic is the surviving Jewish communities in Latin America which have encountered much the religious persecution, since their massive exodus from Spain. There was a thriving Jewish community in Iberian Peninsula for centuries. The time period we discuss started in the 14th century as Jews were forcibly baptized bringing about the phenomenon where they practiced Judaism underground. The descendants of these Spanish-Portuguese Jews in Latin America have been returning to the greater Jewish community for centuries. However, this process has been a difficult one due to how some groups being more insular than others. In Jewish law the term “Anusim” is applied to these forced converts, whether of Spain, Portugal, Persia, Hungary, or elsewhere, and to their descendants. Although the original forced converts and their children should be treated as Jews; there has been a tendency by some authorities to reject them. Many Hispanics whose families are aware of Jewish descent and who wish to be accepted as part of a normative Jewish community face difficulties. Without conversion or formal return, they often find themselves marginalized in the synagogue or temple, unable to marry in the synagogue, or unable to settle permanently in Israel. David M. Gitlitz in his 1996 book Secrecy and Deceit demonstrates that conversos in Spain, Portugal, and the New Spain continued to uphold the Jewish Law, practices, and traditions held by their forefathers well after and during the inquisitions. They also formed communities, holding services in homes of Old Christians who were sympathetic to Jews, and having their own leaders and prayer books. Spanish Jewish Religious Philosopher Moses Maimonides wrote in the 12th century the following regarding Anusim: “How can God not reward a Jew who has been coerced by force of persecution yet secretly performs some commandments? … One who transgresses under duress is not called a sinner, nor wicked, nor is he disqualified…. It is improper to reject those who desanctify the Sabbath or to despise them, rather one should welcome them and encourage them…. Even a voluntary sinner who comes to the synagogue to pray is accepted and is not to be insulted.” There is a growing number of rabbis that support the reintegration of the Anusim such as Conservative Rabbi David Kunin, Joseph Garcia who was commissioned by the Renewal movement and has found backing from some Conservative rabbis, while others that are friendly toward Anusim such as Cuban American Orthodox rabbi Manny Vinas. Many scholars have tacked this issue before such as Ben Zion Netanyahu, Norman Roth and Henry Kamen. They view Conversos not as secret Jews, but as sincere Catholics who were falsely accused of practicing Judaism due to their Jewish lineage. On the other hand, Haim Beinart and Yitzhak Baer, show from multiple historical sources that many Crypto-Jews were willing to be martyred to honor Jewish tradition, some where just trying to survive and others were syncretistic in their beliefs. According to an article by Ashley Perry: “Almost every Jewish tradition has been kept somewhere by some family of Bnei Anusim. There are amulets that have been passed down from generation to generation that contain the mezuza scroll. There are women who go to a dark room every Friday at dusk to light candles in a bowl of water; the water was so that in case the inquisitors would arrive, they could quickly extinguish the flames. This is done to this very day, and many times without even their closest family ever becoming aware of this ritual, until it is time to explain it to the eldest daughter.” (Kol Nidre and the Bnei Anusim)

ABOUT NANCY DAUM DAILEY Nancy is originally from Maryland, but has lived in Spain since 1994.  She led educational trips for young people throughout Spain & Portugal for 8 years before launching her own company, Enchanting Barcelona Tours, in 2011 specializing in kid focused tours & experiences. TIPS FOR VISITING BARCELONA WITH KIDS In comparison, the atmosphere of Barcelona is like San Francisco, Boston or Paris, while IN Madrid the atmosphere is more like New York City. A good combination with traveling to Barcelona would be to go to Costa Brava which is a coastal region of Spain. Comparative to US states,  Spain is slightly smaller than the size of Texas. The high speed train is a great way to get around Spain from city to city. Once you are in a city be prepared to walk a lot. Though for kids you may want to look into bringing a scooter with you. Your kids will be less tired of walking and it will add some fun to the journey. There are places to rent bikes and ride along the boardwalk, as well as parks to visit and Europe's oldest amusement park. Mid-July to August tends to be the hottest time of the year. But in the summertime there is light until about 10:00 PM, and with should a long day you should plan to spend 1 to 4pm inside or at the pool or beach to save your energy for the rest of the day. BEST PLACE TO TAKE FAMILY PHOTO In Front of one of the Gaudi buildings or the fountain in the park are great places for a family photo. FAVORITE TRAVEL GEAR Nancy likes to wear black a lot and will not travel without her ‘Camper’ shoes, which are a Spanish brand. They are lightweight and you can walk around in them for miles! TIP OF THE WEEK Using Coffee Break Spanish was a great way to learn specific areas of the language. Like greetings, ordering at restaurants, etc. FOLLOW US AND SPREAD THE WORD!
