El partido del Fibrón (1984)

Ayer Boca Juniors venció por penales al Barcelona y se quedó con la Copa Diego Armando Maradona. Analizando los enfrentamientos históricos entre ambos equipos, favorable al xeneize, que tiene un partido más ganado (5-3-4), llamó la atención, en un historial tan parejo, la diferencia de goles favorable al equipo catalán, 25-17, lo que le da un saldo favorable de 8 goles producto de la goleada 9-1 que sufriera Boca en 1984 por la Copa Joan Gamper.

Era una época durísima en el plano económico e institucional para el gran equipo argentino y a colación de esto el amigo Agustín sacó el tema del "partido de los fibrones", tema que el también amigo Carlos Pereda Barreto desarrolla generosamente tras mi pedido:

El 8 de julio de 1984 parece un día más, pero no lo fue para el hincha de Boca Juniors. Fue una mezcla de película de ciencia ficción y de terror, con aires de epopeya. El local, Boca, enfrentaba al cuadro de Villa Crespo, Atlanta. Ante la similitud de colores, los "Xeneizes" debieron recurrir a una camiseta de alternativa, una blusa de entrenamiento blanca, teniendo que usar fibrones (rotuladores) en sus espaldas para pintar los números de color negro. Ante la falta de recursos y previsión se salió a jugar así, como se pudo, la solución práctica, "a la criolla", para salir del apuro.

Ese año el club estaba sumido en una debacle institucional que arrastraba desde el anterior año 1983, una tremenda crisis económica tenía al club intervenido y completamente endeudado. Boca perdería ese día el encuentro pero lo ganaría el hincha y los juveniles, por su hidalguía. El encuentro terminó 1-2 (M. De los Santos de tiro libre y Alfredo Graciani y A.Torres para la visita). Más allá del score el partido quedó grabado en la historia del club por la garra y el coraje desplegados. La hinchada quedaría eternamente agradecida a pesar de la situación caótica. Los de la Ribera jugaron con juveniles, deportistas completamente amateurs que tuvieron que recurrir a ese juego de camisetas blancas y dibujar con sus propias manos los números, hecho insólito para un club grande de Sudamérica y a este nivel profesional.

Lo que hizo aún más grotesco el partido, es que a medida que los chicos locales jugaban la propia transpiración fue borrando el número pintado, agrandando la epopeya para la tribuna local y quedando como un hecho histórico para la institución."Orgullo y esperanza" eran los llamativas cabeceras que uno podía leer en las páginas de "El Grafico" o el Diario Clarín.

En los peores momentos y a punto de perder la mítica "Bombonera" en un remate, los chicos jugaron ganándose a la hinchada. Inclusive las crónicas deportivas decían que fue inmerecido el triunfo de Atlanta. Pero eso no fue todo, Boca viviría a fin de ese año una gran depuración y sangría de su plantel profesional, dejando el club Roberto Mouzo (emblema y capitán), que se retiró del fútbol, y jugadores importantes como Ricardo Gareca y Óscar Ruggeri, que se irían a jugar a River Plate (entre otros jugadores). Ese hecho generó que hasta el día de hoy muchos hinchas de Boca le echen en cara al mismísimo "Cabezón" Ruggeri el hecho de abandonar el barco en las malas para irse a la "vereda de enfrente".

La anécdota quedará para siempre en el alma de todo hincha de Boca Juniors. Esa tarde del 8 de julio de 1984 será recordada como "El partido del Fibrón".

Cabe recordar también que la de hoy es una fecha muy especial para Bella Vista.

Platja de la Ribera, Cabanes (No. 6)

Valencia was founded by the Romans under the name of "Valentia Edetanorum", which translates to 'Valiance (or Courage) of the Land of the Lamb'. With the establishment of the Taifa of Valencia, the name developed to بلنسية‎ (Balansīyah), which eventually became Valencia after the expulsion of the Moors.

"Valencian Community" is the standard translation of the official name in Valencian recognized by the Statute of Autonomy of 1982 (Comunitat Valenciana). This is the name most used in public administration, tourism, the media and Spanish written language. However, the variant of "Valencian Country" (País Valencià) that emphasizes the nationality status of the Valencian people is still the preferred one by left-wing parties, civil associations, Catalan written language and major Catalan public institutions.

"Valencian Community" is a neologism that was specifically adopted after democratic transition in order to solve the conflict between two competing names: "Valencian Country" and "Former Kingdom of Valencia". On one hand, "Valencian Country" represented the modern conception of nationality that resurged in the 19th century. It became well-established during the Second Spanish Republic and later on with the works of Joan Fuster in the 1960s, implying the existence of the "Catalan Countries" (Països Catalans). This nationalist subtext was opposed by anti-Catalan blaverists, who proposed "Former Kingdom of Valencia" (Antic Regne de València) instead, in order to emphasize Valencian independence from Catalonia. Currently, blaverists have accepted the official denomination.

The autonomous community can be homonymously identified with its capital "Valencia". However, this could be disregarding of the provinces of Alicante and Castellón. Other more anecdotal translations have included "Land of Valencia", "Region of Valencia" and "Valencian Region". The term "Region", however, carries negative connotations among many Valencians because it could deny their nationality status.

2nd King of Portugal and of the Burgundy Dynasty: King Sancho I of Portugal, "The Populator"

Reign: 6 December 1185 – 26 March 1211 Coronation: 9 December 1185 Predecessor: Afonso I

Sancho I (nicknamed "the Populator" ("o Povoador"), King of Portugal (Coimbra, 11 November 1154 – 26 March 1211) was the second but only surviving legitimate son and fifth child of Afonso I of Portugal by his wife, Mafalda of Savoy. Sancho succeeded his father and was crowned in Coimbra when he was 31 years old on 9 December 1185. He used the title King of Silves from 1189 until he lost the territory to Almohad control in 1191.

Sancho was baptized with the name Martinho since he was born on the feast day of Saint Martin of Tours. On 15 August 1170, he was knighted by his father, King Afonso I, and from then on he became his second in command, both administratively and militarily. At this time, the independence of Portugal (declared in 1139) was not firmly established. The kings of León and Castile were trying to re-annex the country and the Roman Catholic Church was late in giving its blessing and approval. Due to this situation Afonso I had to search for allies within the Iberian Peninsula. Portugal made an alliance with the Crown of Aragon and together they fought Castile and León. To secure the agreement, Sancho married Dulce, younger sister of King Alfonso II of Aragon, in 1174. Aragon was thus the first Iberian kingdom to recognize the independence of Portugal.

With the death of Afonso I in 1185, Sancho I became the second king of Portugal. Coimbra was the center of his kingdom; Sancho terminated the exhausting and generally pointless wars against his neighbours for control of the Galician borderlands. Instead, he turned all his attentions to the south, towards the Moorish small kingdoms (called taifas) that still thrived. With Crusader help he took Silves in 1188. Silves was an important city of the South, an administrative and commercial town with population estimates around 20,000 people. Sancho ordered the fortification of the city and built a castle which is today an important monument of Portuguese heritage. At the time he also styled himself "By the Grace of God, King of Portugal and Silves (Dei Gratiæ, Rex Portugalliæ et Silbis). However, military attention soon had to be turned again to the North, where León and Castile threatened again the Portuguese borders. Silves was again lost to the Moors in 1191.

Sancho I dedicated much of his reign to political and administrative organization of the new kingdom. He accumulated a national treasure, supported new industries and the middle class of merchants. Moreover, he created several new towns and villages (like Guarda in 1199)

and took great care in populating remote areas in the northern Christian regions of Portugal – hence the nickname "the Populator". The king was also known for his love of knowledge and literature. Sancho I wrote several books of poems and used the royal treasure to send Portuguese students to European universities.

He died in Coimbra, aged 56.

Sancho married Dulce of Aragon, daughter of Ramon Berenguer IV, Count of Barcelona and Petronilla, Queen of Aragon. Eleven children were born from this marriage, nine of whom reached adulthood:

Teresa (1175/1176 – 18 June 1250), she became the wife of King Afonso IX of León and was beatified in 1705;

Sancha (1180 – 13 March 1229), founded the Monastery of Celas near Coimbra where she lived until her death.

Her sister Teresa arranged for her burial at the Monastery of Lorvão.

She was beatified by Pope Clement XI in 1705, the same year as Teresa;

Constança (May 1182 – before 1186 or August 1202). According to Rodrigues Oliveira, she must have died before 1186 since her name is not registered in any of the documents of the chancellery of Sancho I which begins in that year";However, the necrology of São Salvador de Moreira records the death "III Nonas Augusti" in 1202 of "Domna Constantia Infantula filia regis domni Sancii et reginæ domnæ Dulciæ".

Afonso (23 April 1186 – 25 March 1223), succeeded his father as the third king of Portugal;

Raimundo (1187/88 – 9 March bef. 1188/89), who died in infancy;

Pedro (23 February 1187 – 2 June 1258), spouse of Aurembiaix, countess of Urgell;

Fernando (24 March 1188 – 27 July 1233), count through his marriage to Joan, Countess of Flanders;

Henrique (aft. March 1189 – 8 Dec aft. 1189), who died during infancy;

Mafalda (1195/1196 – 1 May 1256), the wife of Henry I of Castile, was beatified in 1793;

Branca (1198 – 17 November 1240), probably the twin sister of Berengaria, was raised in the court with her father and his mistress "a Ribeirinha" and, when she was eight or ten years old, was sent to live with her sisters at the Monastery of Lorvão. She was a nun at a convent in Guadalajara and was buried at the same monastery as her mother;

Berengaria (1198 – 27 March 1221), probably the twin sister of Branca, married Valdemar II of Denmark in 1214.

With Maria Aires de Fornelos, daughter of Aires Nunes de Fornelos and Maior Pais, who was buried at the Monastery of Santo Tirso in accordance with her last will, Sancho had two children, both born before his marriage to Dulce of Aragon:

Martim Sanches (born before 1175) Count of Trastámara. Martim married Elo Pérez de Castro, daughter of Pedro Fernández de Castro, with no issue from this marriage;

Urraca Sanches (born before 1175), was married to Lourenço Soares, son of Soeiro Viegas and Sancha Bermúdez de Traba.

After Dulce's death, he had an affair with María Pais de Ribeira "a Ribeirinha" for whom he is often said to have written and dedicated a cantiga de amigo, A Ribeirinha, composed in 1199, the oldest text known in Portuguese poetry. That is contested nowadays by the Portuguese historian António de Resende Oliveira, who claims this cantiga was composed by Alfonso X of Castile or perhaps Sancho II of Portugal. At least six children were born of this relationship:

Rodrigo Sanches (died 1245), had a bastard son with Constança Afonso de Cambra called Afonso Rodrigues, a Franciscan friar and the "Guardian of the Convent of Lisbon";

Gil Sanches (died on 14 September 1236), a cleric and troubadour, his father left him 8,000 morabetinos in his will. Gil granted fueros to the settlers of Sardezas in 1213;

Nuno Sanches, he died in his childhood on a 16 of December in an unknown year. He could also have been the son of Maria Aires de Fornelos;

Maior Sanches, also died at an early age on 27 of August of an unknown year;

Teresa Sanches, her father left her 7,000 morabetinos in his will. She was the second wife of Afonso Téllez de Meneses whom she married before 1220 and with whom she had issue;

Constança Sanches (1204 – 8 August 1269). Her father left her 7,000 morabetinos in his will. She was the God-mother of her grand-niece, Infanta Sancha and left her half of Vila do Conde, Avelaneda, Pousadela, Parada and Maçãs. She also owned estates in Torres Vedras.

King Sancho also had one son with Maria Moniz de Ribeira, daughter of Munio Osorio, tenente of the comarca of Cabreira and Ribera,and of Maria Nunes of Grijó,:

Pedro Moniz, who married a woman whose name is not recorded, and was the father of Maria Peres de Cabreira, the wife of Martim Peres Machado, the first to use the last name Machado.

INTRODUCTION TO BARCLEONA

The Casa de les Punxes or Casa Terradas, designed by Josep Puig i Cadafalch.

Casa Batlló - in the center of Barcelona. Designed by Antoni Gaudí. It is considered one of his masterpieces. A remodel of a previously built house, it was redesigned in 1904 by Gaudí and has been refurbished several times after that. The local name for the building is Casa dels ossos (House of Bones), as it has a visceral, skeletal organic quality.

Plaça Catalunya - The plaza occupies an area of about 50,000 square metres. It is especially known for its fountains and statues, its proximity to some of Barcelona's most popular attractions, and the flocks of pigeons that gather in the centre.

La Rambla - is a street in central Barcelona. A tree-lined pedestrian street, it stretches for 1.2 kilometres connecting Plaça de Catalunya in the centre with the Christopher Columbus Monument at Port Vell.

La Boqueria food market - is a large public market in the Ciudad Vieja district of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain, and one of the city's foremost tourist landmarks, with an entrance from La Rambla, not far from the Liceo, Barcelona's opera house.

Gothic Quarter - The charming Gothic Quarter, or Barri Gòtic, has narrow medieval streets filled with trendy bars, clubs and Catalan restaurants. The Museu d'Història de Barcelona shows remains of the Roman city. Artisans sell leather and jewellery near the Cathedral of Barcelona, while flower stalls and street-food vendors line busy avenue La Rambla. The Plaça del Pi, named after the adjacent Gothic church, hosts a weekend art market.

Barcelona Cathedral - The Cathedral of the Holy Cross and Saint Eulalia, also known as Barcelona Cathedral, is the Gothic cathedral and seat of the Archbishop of Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. The cathedral was constructed from the thirteenth to fifteenth centuries, with the principal work done in the fourteenth century.

Basilica of Santa Maria del Mar - is a church in the Ribera district of Barcelona, Spain, built between 1329 and 1383 at the height of Principality of Catalonia's maritime and mercantile preeminence. It is an outstanding example of Catalan Gothic, with a purity and unity of style that is very unusual in large medieval buildings.

Beach

Park Güell - is a public park system composed of gardens and architectonic elements located on Carmel Hill, in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Park Güell is the reflection of Gaudí's artistic plenitude, which belongs to his naturalist phase. During this period, the architect perfected his personal style through inspiration from organic shapes.

La Sagrada Familia - is a large unfinished Roman Catholic minor basilica in Barcelona, Catalonia, Spain. Designed by Catalan architect Antoni Gaudí. On 19 March 1882, construction of the Sagrada Família began under architect Francisco de Paula del Villar. In 1883, when Villar resigned, Gaudí took over as chief architect, transforming the project with his architectural and engineering style, combining Gothic and curvilinear Art Nouveau forms.

Gaudí devoted the remainder of his life to the project, and he is buried in the crypt. At the time of his death in 1926, less than a quarter of the project was complete. Relying solely on private donations, the Sagrada Família's construction progressed slowly and was interrupted by the Spanish Civil War. In July 1936, revolutionaries set fire to the crypt and broke their way into the workshop, partially destroying Gaudí's original plans, drawings and plaster models, which led to 16 years work to piece together the fragments of the master model.

Casa Milà - popularly known as La Pedrera or "The stone quarry", a reference to its unconventional rough-hewn appearance, is a modernist building. It was the last private residence designed by architect Antoni Gaudí and was built between 1906 and 1912. The building was commissioned in 1906 by Pere Milà [ca; es] and his wife Roser Segimon [ca; es]. At the time, it was controversial because of its undulating stone facade, twisting wrought iron balconies and designed by Josep Maria Jujol. Several structural innovations include a self-supporting stone façade, and a free-plan floor, underground garage and the spectacular terrace on the roof.

Fundació Joan Miró - is a museum of modern art honoring Joan Miró. His connection to the land and his interest in everyday objects and in the natural environment formed the backdrop to some of his technical and formal research. Self-contained in his manners and public expressions, it is through art that Joan Miró showed his rebelliousness and a strong sensitivity to the political and social events around him.

Montjuïc Castle - is an old military fortress, with roots dating back from 1640. In the last 350 years Montjuïc Castle has played a decisive role in the history of Barcelona, becoming a symbol after the Catalan defeat to Spain in 1714. Since then the Montjuïc cannons have bombarded the city and its citizens on various occasions, and Montjuïc has been used as a prison and torture centre repeatedly for three centuries.The castle is infamous in Catalan history books because of its role in the civil war from 1936 to 1939 when both sides of the conflict imprisoned, tortured and shot political prisoners at Montjuïc, among them Lluís Companys, who was the president of the Generalitat of Catalonia during the Spanish Civil War. Companys was executed upon orders from the Spanish State at Montjuïc Castle in 1940.

Barcelona Pavilion - designed by Ludwig Mies van der Rohe and Lilly Reich, was the German Pavilion for the 1929 International Exposition in Barcelona, Spain. The pavilion for the International Exhibition was supposed to represent the new Weimar Germany: democratic, culturally progressive, prospering, and thoroughly pacifist; a self-portrait through architecture.

Jardí Botànic de Barcelona (Botanic Garden) - set amongst a number of stadiums used in the Summer Olympic Games of 1992. Although a botanical garden had been established in Barcelona as early as 1888, the current gardens date from 1999. “After only a few minutes of walking around the Botanic Gardens I felt I had entered a Zen monastery, calm and peace and cleanliness.”

Bibliotec Sant Antoni (Joan Oliver) - The library, named in honor of playwright and poet Joan Oliver, came about through a competition won by RCR in 2005. The architects sought to make the street more dynamic and to open up the inner courtyard for public use, as well as to create a library. The glass-enclosed main reading room is raised up and set between the two lateral wings of the library, which allow light to filter through from both sides, forming a gateway into the public space. This courtyard, with its trees, earthen paving, sitting areas, games, etc. can be understood as an extension of the library’s reading rooms.

Plaza de la Gardunya - Escuela Massana (school of Art and Design) is part of the long process of urban transformation of Plaza de la Gardunya, located in Barcelona’s historical centre. the effort put into this project responds to the desire of creating a bright interior space with open connecting spaces whilst, at the same time, the exterior of the building remains in harmony with the urban fabric. The building showcases different volumetries and façade textures as a response to the surrounding buildings. With the aim of giving it a more unique and sculptural look and, at the same time, make it more airy, the section that faces onto the square is divided into two sections slightly rotated, creating terraces. The school, which is an institution that welcomes future artisans and designers, is clad in a ceramic material of large dimensions, made in an artisanal manner and unique to our building. This helped to give it its unique character and highlights the sculptural nature of the building, whilst protecting the privacy of the students.

Santa Caterina Food Market - Buzzy market featuring a unique, wavy roof & colourful mosaics, with a variety of vendors & eateries. A competition was opened to restore the Santa Caterina city market located in the old quarter of Barcelona in 1997. EMBT won the bid with a proposal that aimed at incorporating the extreme complexity of the setting itself by creating a commercial market complemented by a residential zone and public spaces that integrated all the activities of the neighbourhood.

22@ District - is the corporative name given to an urban renewal area in Barcelona's formerly industrial area of Poblenou, in the district of Sant Martí, nicknamed "the Catalan Manchester" in the 19th century. Its aim is to convert Poblenou into the city's technological and innovation district, as well as to increase leisure and residential spaces. Centered on Plaça de les Glòries Catalanes, it is part of one of Europe's biggest urban regeneration schemes, begun during the 2000s and still ongoing.

The Museu del Disseny de Barcelona - is a new center of Barcelona's Institute of Culture, acting as a museum and laboratory. It focuses on 4 branches or design disciplines: space design, product design, information design and fashion. Barcelona is a city historically linked to design. It was decided to build a single space in which locate all collections and endowments existing in Barcelona related to the world of design, and Oriol Bohigas commissioned the construction of a building in the Plaça de les Glòries.

Torre Glòries - is a 38-story skyscraper which marks the gateway to the new technological district of Barcelona. It was designed by French architect Jean Nouvel in association with the Spanish firm b720 Fermín Vázquez Arquitectos and built by Dragados. Torre Agbar is intended to recall the shape of a geyser rising into the air. It was inspired by Montserrat, a mountain near Barcelona. In an interview, he described the tower as having a phallic character.

Edifici Mediatic - Enric Ruiz-Geli doesn’t emphasise the media impact of his futuristic building, but instead its energy efficiency. Extensive studies formed the basis for the parametric design where the award-winning steel frame is on the outside and the interior offers flexible use of space. The patented cushions made of ETFE membranes are controllable, allowing the different façades to be insulated, opened, or shaded as needed. Edifici MediaTIC is a prime example of forward-looking architecture.

Urban Superblocks - Barcelona’s radical plan to take back streets from cars. A vision for a different way of living in the 21st century, one that steps back from many of the mistakes of the auto-besotted 20th century, refocusing on health and community. It is a bigger and more ambitious city plan than anything being discussed in America and, more important, a plan that is actually being implemented, with a few solid pilot projects behind it, a list of lessons learned, and a half-dozen new projects in the works.

Can Framis Museum - Is an art center devoted to the promotion of contemporary Catalan painting. Located in the old Can Framis factory complex, the museum displays more than 250 paintings from the sixties to the present made by artists born or currently living in Catalonia.

Museu Blau (Science Museum) – By Herzon De Meuron “We look for materials which are as intelligent, versatile and complex as natural phenomena, in other words materials which don't just appeal to the eyes of the astounded art critic, but are also really efficient and appeal to all our senses.�� – Jacques Herzog. A triangular mass of gray-blue concrete punctured and split in places to reveal the contrasting use of reflective planes.

Walden 7 - is an apartment building designed by Ricardo Bofill's team and located close to Barcelona, in Catalonia. It was built in 1975. The original project includes 446 residences. The original exterior façade was covered with small, red ceramic tiles backed with the wrong adhesive, creating a pedestrian hazard as the tiles fell off the building.

The day of the Dead - is a Mexican holiday celebrated throughout Mexico, and by people of Mexican heritage elsewhere. The holiday involves family and friends gathering to pray for and remember friends and family members who have died, and helping support their spiritual journey. In Mexican culture, death is viewed as a natural part of the human cycle. Mexicans view it not as a day of sadness but as a day of celebration because their loved ones awake and celebrate with them. Mexican cempasúchil (marigold) is the traditional flower used to honor the dead.

Igualada Cemetery - Designed by the architects Enric Miralles and Carme Pinós after winning an architectural competition in 1984. the cemetery became widely regarded as one of the most poetic works of twentieth century Catalan architecture. to explore poetic ideas regarding the acceptance of the cycle of life to enable a link between the past, the present, and the future. A processional "street" descends from the entrance, where crossed, rusting, steel poles doubling as gates and likened to the crosses at Calvary, proclaim the start of a winding pathway towards the burial area. The route is lined with repeatable concrete loculi forming retaining walls and the floor of the path has railway sleepers set into its concrete surface.The intention was to bring the bereaved down into the landscape to a 'city of the dead', an in between place where the dead and the living are brought closer together. The spaces are designed to provoke thoughts and memories.

Temores de blecaute aumentam vendas de fogões a gás e lanternas na Espanha

Por Corina Pons

MADRI (Reuters) – Equipamentos para acampar, como fogões a gás e lanternas, estão desaparecendo das prateleiras de lojas da Espanha agora que pessoas que temem falta de energia e possíveis blecautes se preparam para o inverno.

Apesar das garantias do governo de que não haverá uma crise de abastecimento, uma disparada nas tarifas de energia, impulsionada em parte pela escassez na Ásia e na Europa e uma mudança em gasodutos vindos da Argélia, alimenta as preocupações do público.

Consumidores disseram à Reuters que estão procurando alternativas aos eletrodomésticos dependentes de eletricidade para o caso de eles se tornarem muito caros em uma crise de abastecimento ou pararem de funcionar em um blecaute.

Beatriz Gordillo, zeladora de 70 anos de um bloco de apartamentos do centro de Madri, disse à Reuters que já comprou um abajur a pilha e velas e que está estudando se também adquire um fogão de gás butano portátil.

"Moro no subsolo, e se a energia faltar ficará terrivelmente frio", disse ela. "Estou nervosa, não sei o que farei. O preço (do fogão) é alto para mim."

Consumidores também mencionaram uma campanha do governo da Áustria para educar os cidadãos a respeito de produtos para se ter em casa na eventualidade de blecautes.

"Garantimos totalmente eletricidade de qualidade e abastecimento de gás, e isto deveria servir para acalmar as pessoas que podem estar preocupadas com boatos", disse a ministra do Meio Ambiente e da Energia, Teresa Ribera, em um evento público na semana passada.

Joan Batalla, presidente da Associação Espanhola de Gás, disse à Reuters que está ciente do nervosismo a respeito do abastecimento, mas que o país tem um portfólio de gás mais diversificado do que a maioria dos países europeus, sendo suprido por 14 países.
