American Muslims Name School after Islamic Conqueror of Spain
2008-06-23 20:59:00
About a month ago or so, a scandal broke out into the media sphere and the blogosphere in the USA about a Muslim charter school in Minnesota. The school was controlled by Muslim private persons, yet it received substantial public funding. The scandal arose from violations by the school of the conditions of its receiving public funding. The scandal intensified when non-Muslim journalists were attacked on school premises when trying to investigate the charges. This school was/is called the Tariq ibn Ziyad Academy. The major question that has not been asked by most media --MSM or blogs-- reporting on this affair is just who is this Tariq fellow. The answer to that question would tell us with whom these American Muslims identify.Here are accounts of Tariq by respected historians Bernard Lewis & Carl Brockelmann:It was in Spain that the Arabs achieved their greatest and most enduring conquest in Europe. . . Tariq, a Berber freedman [that is, a former slave] of Musa ibn Nusair, the Ar...

HOSTAL DE LOS REYES CATÓLICOS - MARCH 2007Santiago de Compostela, the capital of the autonomous community of Galicia and a UNESCO's World Heritage Site since 1985, is the famous destination of one of the most important medieval pilgrimages: «The Way of Saint James", which would allegedly lead to the burial site of the apostle, James the Great. Having existed for over one thousand years, the Way of St. James was declared the first European Cultural Route by the Council of Europe in October 1987. It is said that «the tourist and the pilgrim are travellers in search of similar goals: the consummation of a miracle. They seek rest, and recognition of the hectic activity and ups and downs of the long road through daily life: they wish to earn the jubilee, plenary indulgence». The Way of St. James was one of the three pilgrimages on which a plenary indulgence could be earned...This post is dedicated to the Hostal de los Reyes Católicos, a building that was commissioned as a Royal Hospital...

Spain aims for year-round tourist industry
2008-06-06 02:00:00
Owners of investment property in Spain could soon find they have a healthier rental income in the winter months, if plans announced by industry minister Miguel Sebastian work. In a speech delivered on Thursday, Mr Sebastian outlined measures to combat the impact of the credit crunch and economic slowdown on Spain, reports Thomson Financial. The two key strategies he detailed were moves to encourage more people to buy new cars and efforts to increase tourist numbers. Tourism is already a vital sector of the Spanish economy, with thousands of visitors from across Europe heading to its beach resorts and the cultural centres of Madrid and Barcelona every year. However, Mr Sebastian insisted there is room for improvement, adding: "We need to make tourism less seasonal." His masterplan to do this involves running campaigns to persuade more retired people to holiday there in the winter - a move which could mean people with investment property in tourist resorts are able to c...

Spain set to attract British holidaymakers
2008-06-05 02:00:00
Rental investors in Spain could benefit from high demand from British holidaymakers this summer. According to figures from ebookers.com, nearly two-thirds of holidaymakers from the UK are planning a beach holiday this year. The online travel agency has found that established European markets including Spain are among the most popular destinations for tourists. This is despite the weakness of the pound against the euro, as well as strong competition from long-haul destinations such as the USA and Thailand. However, the company has found that many tourists are booking their holidays fairly late. As a result, head of marketing Claire Howard Jones has issued the following warning. "Bargain hunters will often be disappointed," she said. "Smart travellers know the best prices in the travel industry are mostly available to early bookers." Meanwhile, Frances Tuke of the Association of British Travel Agents has highlighted Spain as a highly affordable place to vis...

The Weekly Carboholic: Not a drop to drink?
2008-06-04 14:20:00
People without water will do anything - Wendon, The Ice Pirates (1984) Deprived of water, people die within days of dehydration. So do livestock. Crops wither and, if the fields produce at all, the yields are cut dramatically from normal. And now we’re beginning to hear stern warnings about the availability of cheap potable water. “We once assumed that water is free, air is free and power is cheap. The latter is clearly no longer true and we are increasingly realising the truth about water,” argued MIT Sloan School of Management Professor Sarah Slaughter in a May 2008 paper. According to a USGS estimate, 96.5% of the available water is in the oceans, 1.7% is frozen into icecaps and glaciers, 0.8% of the water is in freshwater aquifers, and about 0.0072% is available in freshwater lakes and rivers. Generally speaking, humanity relies on that 0.0072% for all of its direct consumption and agricultural uses. But most (about 2/3rds) of that available freshwater is ...

Book Review: Spain And The World Table
2008-06-03 00:00:00
In 2006, the Culinary Institute of America gathered chefs from Spain and around the world to attend a conference on Spanish cuisine and its impact on the 'world table'. The result, this visually splendid cookbook, reduces some of the best culinary talent from the event and present 125 recipes that have been adapted for the home cook. The recipes, each, speak to the traditions of Spanish cuisine, but do not ignore the modern taste for a broad palate for ingredients, or the crafting of new flavors and textures. Over 600 culinary industry leaders participated in the CIA's 2006 "Worlds of Flavor" International Conference and Festival. And the resulting cookbook brings many techniques, flavors and concepts that might not be historically familiar, but are traditionally rooted, and as richly imaginative as they are flavorful.

Tomato tossing in Spain
2008-06-02 00:00:00
For the largest food fight on earth look no further than Bunyol's rather fruity fiesta this August.Every year the population in the sleepy Spanish village near Valencia swells four-fold as La Tomatina sees battle commence - with tomatoes.Participants arm themselves from a huge 125,000 kilogram arsenal of ripe fruit in the town centre before hurling their missiles at anyone they choose from the 30,000-army of other players.The rules for the two-hour standoff are straightforward - no other projectiles but tomatoes may be thrown and these must be squished first.La Tomatina is thought to date back to 1945 when a costumed participant in the town's annual parade was accidentally knocked to his feet by youths. As he vented his wrath, the kids sought revenge by hurling salad grenades at him from a nearby vegetable stall. They have returned every year since in greater numbers.Bunyol is located 30 miles west of Valencia and surrounded by mountain ranges.

Valencia Cathedral and the Holy Grail
2008-05-30 20:05:00
Within the old city walls of Valencia alone, there are dozens of old churches all stunning in their own right. At the center of all these churches in the Catedral Basilica Metropolitana de Santa Maria or the Valencia Cathedral. Founded in the 13th century, it incorporates several architectural styles (its exterior is mostly Gothic but the main entrance is lavishly Baroque), and houses a large number of artistic and religious treasures.One of those treasures is said to be the Holy Grail which has a long history. Legend has it that St. Peter transferred the grail to Rome in the first century. It was then brought by St. Lawrence to Huesca, Spain together with Pope Sixtus II in the 3rd century when they escaped the persecution of Emperor Valerian. The cup was hidden in various places during the Muslim invasion that started in 712 A.D., finally finding itself in the monastery of San Juan de la Peña. It was given to King Martin of Aragon who kept it in the royal palace in Saragossa, and l...

Alicante, a vibrant Mediterranean getaway
2008-05-30 18:26:00
Alicante is such a charming Mediterranean city and a popular tourist getaway being the center of Costa Blanca. After exploring Elche in the morning, I decided to breeze through Alicante in the afternoon before proceeding back to Valencia. Ever since I was a child, Alicante had been very familiar to us since we had a granduncle, a retired diplomat, who lived there. Sadly, he passed away last year even before I could meet him.The capital of Alicante (Alacant) Province, the city was described by the Valencian author Joan Fuster as the most pleasant city in the Valencian Region, ?the city you would choose to live in if you had to exchange your village for a town.? Its more than 3,000 years of history was evident in its rich architectural heritage.I immediately noticed the Castillo de Sta. Barbara perched on top of Monte Tossal. There are buses that take you up the hill to visit the castle. The city hall of Alicante is a gem of Baroque civil architecture. Equally impressive are Alicante?...
Requena's bodegas, vinos and cava
2008-05-30 14:48:00
Requena gave us a glimpse into the wine culture of Spain. It is a municipality in the Valencian comarca of Utiel-Requena which is said to have a viticulture tradition that is more than two thousand years old.We visited the bodega or wine cellar of Torre Oria. Founded by the Oria de Rueda family in 1897, it's one of the most popular wine cellars in the Valencian Region and receives a lot of visitors. Tours are by appointment.Our visit started at the palace-house of the wine cellar designed by Jose Donderis in the early 1900s. The cava (champagne) and wine-making process was explained to us before we proceeded to the production room, cava tunnels, and barrel warehouse. But the highlight of the tour was the cava-tasting which sent all of us buying bottles to take back with us to the Philippines.After the tour, we proceeded to downtown Requena for lunch. Our host family had mentioned to us that the specialty of the place was chorizo and embutido so we made sure to order some. I was exp...

Inland Spain attracts investors
2008-05-30 02:00:00
Overseas property buyers are increasingly shunning the Spanish coastline and moving inland, it has been revealed. The Spanish Property Owners Guild (Spog) stated that many coastal areas have become overdeveloped by mass tourism. However, it believes that foreign property buyers can still find an unspoiled environment if they move away from the sea. Paul Bradley, spokesperson for Spog, suggested that prospective investors look towards places such as La Vinuela, which is just 20 miles away from Malaga. This means that property buyers could live in a more peaceful and natural environment while still having easy access to the Costa del Sol. Mr Bradley commented: "Real Spain still exists - ten miles inland and it is still how it has always been." A recent survey of foreign property owners by A Place in the Sun magazine found that Spain was still the most popular destination among Britons.
