#FITN First In Nation Republican Leadership Summit, Nashua, New Hampshire

 

Crowne Plaza Nashua

Address: 2 Somerset Pkwy, Nashua, NH 03063

 

Every four years, the political world descends upon New Hampshire to take part in the “First-in-the-Nation” Presidential Primary. On April 17th and 18th that excitement will again percolate in the Granite State for the #FITN Republican Leadership Conference.

 

James Richard "Rick" Perry (born March 4, 1950) is an American Republican politician who served as the 47th Governor of Texas from 2000 to 2015. A Republican, he was elected Lieutenant Governor of Texas in 1998 and assumed the governorship in December 2000 when then-governor George W. Bush resigned to become President of the United States. Perry is the longest serving governor in Texas state history. As a result, he is the only governor in modern Texas history to have appointed at least one person to every eligible state office, board, or commission position (as well as to several elected offices to which the governor can appoint someone to fill an unexpired term, such as six of the nine current members of the Texas Supreme Court).

 

Perry was elected to full gubernatorial terms in 2002, 2006 and 2010 and is the fourth Texas governor (after Allan Shivers, Price Daniel, and John Connally) to serve three terms. With a tenure in office to date of 14 years, 119 days, Perry was, at the time he left office, the second longest serving current U.S. governor – after Terry Branstad of Iowa. Perry served as chairman of the Republican Governors Association in 2008 (succeeding Sonny Perdue of Georgia) and again in 2011.

 

Perry won the Texas 2010 Republican gubernatorial primary election, defeating U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison and former Wharton County Republican Party Chairwoman and businesswoman Debra Medina. In the 2010 Texas gubernatorial election, Perry won a third term by defeating former Houston mayor Bill White and Kathie Glass.

 

On August 13, 2011, Perry announced in South Carolina that he was running for the Republican nomination for President of the United States in the 2012 presidential election. Perry suspended his campaign in January 2012 and eventually endorsed Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

 

On July 8, 2013, Perry announced that he would not seek re-election to his fourth term in the 2014 election, planning to retire instead. Unnamed sources said to be close to Perry told the National Review that Perry may focus on another White House bid for 2016.

 

On August 15, 2014, Perry was indicted by a grand jury on felony charges for abuse of power. He was accused of coercing a Democratic District Attorney who had been convicted of drunk driving to resign by threatening to veto funding for state public corruption prosecutors. The indictment received some support and also wide criticism from all sides of the political spectrum, and editorial criticism from major US newspapers.

Scott Kevin Walker (born November 2, 1967) is an American Republican politician who is the 45th Governor of Wisconsin. He is a two-term Governor, elected in 2010 and 2014, who also defeated an effort to recall him in 2012.

 

Walker began his political career in the state assembly, serving from 1993-2002. After the 2002 resignation of Tom Ament as Executive of Milwaukee County, Walker won in a special election to fill the seat, which he held from 2002 to 2010.

 

Walker was elected governor of Wisconsin in 2010, defeating the Democratic nominee, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. After being sworn into office in 2011, Walker introduced a budget repair plan which limited many collective bargaining powers for most public employees. The legislation led to significant protests at the Wisconsin State Capitol and an effort to recall Walker. In June 2012, Walker faced Barrett in Wisconsin's only gubernatorial recall election. After emerging as the winner, Walker became the only governor in the U.S. to date to win a gubernatorial recall election.

 

Walker is seen by many as a potential candidate for the GOP's nomination in the 2016 presidential election, having formed a 527 organization in January of 2015.

 

Albarracín es una localidad y municipio español del suroeste de la provincia de Teruel, comunidad autónoma deAragón.

La localidad es Monumento Nacional desde 1961; posee la Medalla de Oro al mérito en las Bellas Artes de 1996, y se encuentra propuesta por la Unesco para ser declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la belleza e importancia de su patrimonio histórico.

Se encuentra situada cerca de la antigua ciudad romana de Lobetum. Los árabes llamaron al lugar Alcartam que se derivaría del antiguo topónimo de Ercávida, pasando a denominarse más tarde como Aben Razin, nombre de una familia bereber, de donde se derivaría su nombre actual. Otros opinan que el término «Albarracín» derivaría delcelta alb, 'montaña', y ragin, 'viña', 'uva' o del antropónimo Razin.4

Sin duda el topónimo procede de Ibn (ben) hijo de Razin (reyes taifas de Albarracín desde la fitna hasta Ibn Mardanis, rey Lobo de Murcia. es decir Al lugar de los hijos de Razin, aunque hasta el s. XIX su nombre oficial es Ciudad de Santa María de Albarracín, denominándose en época islámica Santa María de Oriente

El casco antiguo se encuentra construido sobre las faldas de una montaña, rodeada casi en su totalidad por el río Guadalaviar. Al norte se encuentra la sierra de Albarracín, y al sur los montes Universales. Parte de su término municipal está ocupado por el Paisaje protegido de los Pinares de Rodeno.

En los alrededores nacen los ríos Guadalaviar, Tajo, Júcar, Cabriel yJiloca.

Su término municipal es, por razones históricas, uno de los más grandes de la provincia de Teruel (sólo superado por el de Alcañiz) y en él se encuentran las localidades de: Albarracín (capital del municipio), El Cañigral, Las Casillas de Bezas, Collado de la Grulla, Valle Cabriel, El Membrillo, San Pedro y Valdevecar.

El pueblo está encaramado en un peñón y rodeado por el Guadalaviar. Por este lado y mirando hacia el río se hallan edificadas las casas colgadas. Dentro del pueblo sus calles son empinadas y estrechas, con rincones muy pintorescos. La construcción ofrece la original arquitectura popular con la forja propia de la provincia además de tener el color rojizo característico llamado rodeno.

La ciudad se divide en dos zonas:

•la parte antigua, la Ciudad, con sus casas colgadas sobre la hoz del río;

•el Arrabal, situado en la vega del Guadalaviar.

En la Edad de Hierro estuvo habitada por la tribu celta de los lobetanos. Se han encontrado importantes pinturas rupestres epipaleolíticas y neolíticas de estilo levantino, esquemático y semiesquemático en el pinar del rodeno. Durante la época romana se llamó, al parecer, Lobetum, y en tiempos de los visigodos, Santa María de Oriente.

Durante el período andalusí, concretamente el siglo XI, el clan bereber de los Banu Razin alcanzó el poder convirtiéndose en la dinastía soberana de la taifa de Albarracín. De este linaje procede el propio nombre de la población (al-Banu Razin: (la ciudad) de los hijos de Razín). De esta magnífica etapa se conservan dos importantes testimonios: la torre del Andador -situada en lo alto del recinto exterior- y el Castillo de Albarracín, que albergó la antigua alcazaba de los Banu Razin.

La taifa pasó posteriormente, por cesión y no por conquista, a la familia cristiana de linaje navarro de los Azagra, que mantuvieron de facto la independencia deCastilla y de Aragón desde 1170, llegando a crear un obispado propio. También el poderoso linaje de Lara ejerció su soberanía sobre Albarracín. Tras el fracaso de conquista por parte de Jaime I en 1220, es Pedro III de Aragón quien la conquistó en 1285 tras sitiarla, pasando definitivamente a la Corona de Aragón en 1300. Esta serie de hechos políticos tuvieron como base la importancia de la fortaleza y del sistema defensivo de Albarracín.

Es una antigua sede episcopal denominada, primero Arcabricense y después Segobricense hasta que, tras la desmembración de las iglesias de Segorbe (Castellón) de las iglesias de Albarracín, paso a denominarse Albarracinense, tras la Bula Papal de Juan Pablo II, mantiene su independencia pero pasa a ser regida por el Obispo de Teruel que es también Obispo de Albarracín.

El 21 de junio de 1257 el rey Jaime I concedió en Teruel a la Comunidad de Santa María de Albarracín o Comunidad de aldeas de Albarracín el privilegio sobre competencia de jurisdicción de sexmeros, asistentes y jurados de dicha Ciudad

Durante la Guerra Civil Española tuvieron lugar en la localidad combates entre las tropas republicanas y las franquistas, cambiando varias veces el control de la población entre ambos bandos. En julio de 1937 tuvo lugar una ofensiva republicana sobre la localidad, constituyendo el mayor enfrentamiento bélico habido en la localidad durante la guerra. En un rápido ataque, el 8 de julio los republicanos se hicieron con el control de la localidad a excepción del Ayuntamiento y la Catedral, en los que permanecieron sitiados militares y civiles que se habían refugiado previamente. Los sublevados reaccionaron enviando refuerzos y el 13 de julio lograron reconquistar la localidad y expulsar a las tropas republicanas.

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is currently a candidate for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

 

Bush, who grew up in Houston, is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and a brother of former President George W. Bush. He graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. In 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development, and in 1986 became Florida's Secretary of Commerce until 1988. At that time, he joined his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.

 

In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush pushed an ambitious Everglades conservation plan, supported caps for medical malpractice litigation, launched a Medicaid privatization pilot program, and instituted reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.

 

Bush announced his presidential candidacy on June 15, 2015.

#FITN First In Nation Republican Leadership Summit, Nashua, New Hampshire

 

Crowne Plaza Nashua

Address: 2 Somerset Pkwy, Nashua, NH 03063

 

Every four years, the political world descends upon New Hampshire to take part in the “First-in-the-Nation” Presidential Primary. On April 17th and 18th that excitement will again percolate in the Granite State for the #FITN Republican Leadership Conference.

  

Piyush "Bobby" Jindal (born June 10, 1971) is an American politician who is the 55th and current Governor of Louisiana and the Vice Chairman of the Republican Governors Association.

 

Jindal was born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, to immigrants from India. Prior to entering politics, Jindal studied for a Bachelor of Science in biology and public policy at Brown University from 1988 to 1991 and then a Master of Letters in political science from New College, Oxford, as a Rhodes Scholar. He worked for McKinsey & Company and interned for Representative Jim McCrery of Louisiana. In 1996, Governor Murphy Foster appointed Jindal Secretary of the Louisiana Department of Health and Hospitals, and in 1999 he was appointed President of the University of Louisiana System. In 2001, Jindal was appointed as the principal adviser to Tommy Thompson, the United States Secretary of Health and Human Services by President George W. Bush.

 

He first ran for governor in 2003 and won a plurality in the nonpartisan blanket primary but lost in the general election to Democrat Kathleen Blanco. He then won a seat in the United States House of Representatives in the 2004 elections. The second Indian American in Congress, he was re-elected in 2006. He ran for Governor again in 2007 and secured an outright majority in the first round of balloting; in doing so, he became the first Indian American governor in the United States. As of 2014, there have been two Indian American governors, Nikki Haley and Jindal. He was re-elected in a landslide in 2011.

James Richard "Rick" Perry (born March 4, 1950) is an American Republican politician who served as the 47th Governor of Texas from 2000 to 2015. A Republican, he was elected Lieutenant Governor of Texas in 1998 and assumed the governorship in December 2000 when then-governor George W. Bush resigned to become President of the United States. Perry is the longest serving governor in Texas state history. As a result, he is the only governor in modern Texas history to have appointed at least one person to every eligible state office, board, or commission position (as well as to several elected offices to which the governor can appoint someone to fill an unexpired term, such as six of the nine current members of the Texas Supreme Court).

 

Perry was elected to full gubernatorial terms in 2002, 2006 and 2010 and is the fourth Texas governor (after Allan Shivers, Price Daniel, and John Connally) to serve three terms. With a tenure in office to date of 14 years, 119 days, Perry was, at the time he left office, the second longest serving current U.S. governor – after Terry Branstad of Iowa. Perry served as chairman of the Republican Governors Association in 2008 (succeeding Sonny Perdue of Georgia) and again in 2011.

 

Perry won the Texas 2010 Republican gubernatorial primary election, defeating U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison and former Wharton County Republican Party Chairwoman and businesswoman Debra Medina. In the 2010 Texas gubernatorial election, Perry won a third term by defeating former Houston mayor Bill White and Kathie Glass.

 

On August 13, 2011, Perry announced in South Carolina that he was running for the Republican nomination for President of the United States in the 2012 presidential election. Perry suspended his campaign in January 2012 and eventually endorsed Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

 

On July 8, 2013, Perry announced that he would not seek re-election to his fourth term in the 2014 election, planning to retire instead. Unnamed sources said to be close to Perry told the National Review that Perry may focus on another White House bid for 2016.

 

On August 15, 2014, Perry was indicted by a grand jury on felony charges for abuse of power. He was accused of coercing a Democratic District Attorney who had been convicted of drunk driving to resign by threatening to veto funding for state public corruption prosecutors. The indictment received some support and also wide criticism from all sides of the political spectrum, and editorial criticism from major US newspapers.

Scott Kevin Walker (born November 2, 1967) is an American Republican politician who is the 45th Governor of Wisconsin. He is a two-term Governor, elected in 2010 and 2014, who also defeated an effort to recall him in 2012.

 

Walker began his political career in the state assembly, serving from 1993-2002. After the 2002 resignation of Tom Ament as Executive of Milwaukee County, Walker won in a special election to fill the seat, which he held from 2002 to 2010.

 

Walker was elected governor of Wisconsin in 2010, defeating the Democratic nominee, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. After being sworn into office in 2011, Walker introduced a budget repair plan which limited many collective bargaining powers for most public employees. The legislation led to significant protests at the Wisconsin State Capitol and an effort to recall Walker. In June 2012, Walker faced Barrett in Wisconsin's only gubernatorial recall election. After emerging as the winner, Walker became the only governor in the U.S. to date to win a gubernatorial recall election.

 

Walker is seen by many as a potential candidate for the GOP's nomination in the 2016 presidential election, having formed a 527 organization in January of 2015.

Christopher James "Chris" Christie (born September 6, 1962) is an American politician and member of the Republican Party who has served as the 55th Governor of New Jersey since January 2010.

 

Born in Newark in 1962, Christie volunteered for the gubernatorial campaign of Republican Thomas Kean when he was 15. A 1984 graduate of the University of Delaware, Christie earned a J.D. at Seton Hall University School of Law. Christie joined a Cranford, New Jersey, law firm in 1987, rose to become a partner in 1993, and continued practicing until 2002. He was elected county legislator in Morris County, serving from 1995 to 1998, during which time he generally pushed for lower taxes and lower spending. By 2002, Christie had campaigned for Presidents George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush; the latter appointed him as United States Attorney for New Jersey, a position he held from 2002 to 2008. In that position, he emphasized prosecutions of political corruption and also obtained convictions for sexual slavery, arms trafficking, racketeering by gangs, and other federal crimes.

 

In January 2009, Christie declared his candidacy for Governor of New Jersey. He won the Republican primary, and defeated incumbent Governor Jon Corzine in the election that November. In 2013, he won re-election as Governor, defeating Democrat Barbara Buono by a margin of over 22%. He was sworn in to a second term as governor on January 21, 2014. On November 21, 2013, Christie was elected Chairman of the Republican Governors Association, succeeding Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal.

 

Christie was seen as a potential candidate in the 2012 presidential election, and though not running, he was the keynote speaker at the 2012 Republican National Convention. He is viewed as a potential presidential candidate in 2016. Following the controversial closure of toll plaza access lanes in Fort Lee in 2013, an internal investigation commissioned by the Governor's Office found no evidence of Christie having prior knowledge of or having directed the closure. Investigations of the affair by United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey and the New Jersey Legislature are ongoing.

Lindsey Olin Graham (born July 9, 1955) is an American politician and member of the Republican Party who serves as the senior United States Senator from South Carolina, in office since 2003.

 

Born in Central, South Carolina, Graham graduated from the University of South Carolina in 1977. He received his Juris Doctor from the University of South Carolina School of Law in 1981. He served in the United States Air Force from 1982 to 1988 and served as a reservist in the South Carolina Air National Guard, attaining the rank of colonel. He worked as a lawyer in private practice before he was elected to the South Carolina House of Representatives in 1992, serving one term from 1993 to 1995. He then served in the United States House of Representatives, representing South Carolina's 3rd congressional district from 1995 to 2003. He was elected to four terms, receiving at least 60% of the vote each time.

 

In 2002, Graham ran for the U.S. Senate after eight-term Republican incumbent Strom Thurmond announced his retirement. Graham won the primary unopposed and defeated Democratic opponent Alex Sanders in the general election. Graham was re-elected to a second term in 2008, defeating Bob Conley. He won a third term in 2014, defeating Democrat Brad Hutto and Independent Thomas Ravenel.

 

Graham is a leading war hawk and interventionist. He is known for his willingness to be bipartisan and work with Democrats on issues like climate change, tax reform and immigration reform and his belief that judicial nominees should not be opposed solely on their philosophical positions. He is also a critic of the Tea Party movement, arguing for a more inclusive Republican Party.

 

John Ellis "Jeb" Bush (born February 11, 1953) is an American businessman and politician who served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is currently a candidate for President of the United States in the 2016 U.S. presidential election.

 

Bush, who grew up in Houston, is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and a brother of former President George W. Bush. He graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. In 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development, and in 1986 became Florida's Secretary of Commerce until 1988. At that time, he joined his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.

 

In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and defeated Lieutenant Governor Buddy MacKay with 55 percent of the vote. He ran for reelection in 2002 and won with 56 percent to become Florida's first two-term Republican governor. During his eight years as governor, Bush pushed an ambitious Everglades conservation plan, supported caps for medical malpractice litigation, launched a Medicaid privatization pilot program, and instituted reforms to the state education system, including the issuance of vouchers and promoting school choice.

 

Bush announced his presidential candidacy on June 15, 2015.

James Richard "Rick" Perry (born March 4, 1950) is an American Republican politician who served as the 47th Governor of Texas from 2000 to 2015. A Republican, he was elected Lieutenant Governor of Texas in 1998 and assumed the governorship in December 2000 when then-governor George W. Bush resigned to become President of the United States. Perry is the longest serving governor in Texas state history. As a result, he is the only governor in modern Texas history to have appointed at least one person to every eligible state office, board, or commission position (as well as to several elected offices to which the governor can appoint someone to fill an unexpired term, such as six of the nine current members of the Texas Supreme Court).

 

Perry was elected to full gubernatorial terms in 2002, 2006 and 2010 and is the fourth Texas governor (after Allan Shivers, Price Daniel, and John Connally) to serve three terms. With a tenure in office to date of 14 years, 119 days, Perry was, at the time he left office, the second longest serving current U.S. governor – after Terry Branstad of Iowa. Perry served as chairman of the Republican Governors Association in 2008 (succeeding Sonny Perdue of Georgia) and again in 2011.

 

Perry won the Texas 2010 Republican gubernatorial primary election, defeating U.S. Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison and former Wharton County Republican Party Chairwoman and businesswoman Debra Medina. In the 2010 Texas gubernatorial election, Perry won a third term by defeating former Houston mayor Bill White and Kathie Glass.

 

On August 13, 2011, Perry announced in South Carolina that he was running for the Republican nomination for President of the United States in the 2012 presidential election. Perry suspended his campaign in January 2012 and eventually endorsed Republican nominee Mitt Romney.

 

On July 8, 2013, Perry announced that he would not seek re-election to his fourth term in the 2014 election, planning to retire instead. Unnamed sources said to be close to Perry told the National Review that Perry may focus on another White House bid for 2016.

 

On August 15, 2014, Perry was indicted by a grand jury on felony charges for abuse of power. He was accused of coercing a Democratic District Attorney who had been convicted of drunk driving to resign by threatening to veto funding for state public corruption prosecutors. The indictment received some support and also wide criticism from all sides of the political spectrum, and editorial criticism from major US newspapers.

Christopher James "Chris" Christie (born September 6, 1962) is an American politician and member of the Republican Party who has served as the 55th Governor of New Jersey since January 2010.

 

Born in Newark in 1962, Christie volunteered for the gubernatorial campaign of Republican Thomas Kean when he was 15. A 1984 graduate of the University of Delaware, Christie earned a J.D. at Seton Hall University School of Law. Christie joined a Cranford, New Jersey, law firm in 1987, rose to become a partner in 1993, and continued practicing until 2002. He was elected county legislator in Morris County, serving from 1995 to 1998, during which time he generally pushed for lower taxes and lower spending. By 2002, Christie had campaigned for Presidents George H. W. Bush and George W. Bush; the latter appointed him as United States Attorney for New Jersey, a position he held from 2002 to 2008. In that position, he emphasized prosecutions of political corruption and also obtained convictions for sexual slavery, arms trafficking, racketeering by gangs, and other federal crimes.

 

In January 2009, Christie declared his candidacy for Governor of New Jersey. He won the Republican primary, and defeated incumbent Governor Jon Corzine in the election that November. In 2013, he won re-election as Governor, defeating Democrat Barbara Buono by a margin of over 22%. He was sworn in to a second term as governor on January 21, 2014. On November 21, 2013, Christie was elected Chairman of the Republican Governors Association, succeeding Louisiana Governor Bobby Jindal.

 

Christie was seen as a potential candidate in the 2012 presidential election, and though not running, he was the keynote speaker at the 2012 Republican National Convention. He is viewed as a potential presidential candidate in 2016. Following the controversial closure of toll plaza access lanes in Fort Lee in 2013, an internal investigation commissioned by the Governor's Office found no evidence of Christie having prior knowledge of or having directed the closure. Investigations of the affair by United States Attorney for the District of New Jersey and the New Jersey Legislature are ongoing.

Scott Kevin Walker (born November 2, 1967) is an American Republican politician who is the 45th Governor of Wisconsin. He is a two-term Governor, elected in 2010 and 2014, who also defeated an effort to recall him in 2012.

 

Walker began his political career in the state assembly, serving from 1993-2002. After the 2002 resignation of Tom Ament as Executive of Milwaukee County, Walker won in a special election to fill the seat, which he held from 2002 to 2010.

 

Walker was elected governor of Wisconsin in 2010, defeating the Democratic nominee, Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett. After being sworn into office in 2011, Walker introduced a budget repair plan which limited many collective bargaining powers for most public employees. The legislation led to significant protests at the Wisconsin State Capitol and an effort to recall Walker. In June 2012, Walker faced Barrett in Wisconsin's only gubernatorial recall election. After emerging as the winner, Walker became the only governor in the U.S. to date to win a gubernatorial recall election.

 

Walker is seen by many as a potential candidate for the GOP's nomination in the 2016 presidential election, having formed a 527 organization in January of 2015.

He is also a critic of the Tea Party movement, arguing for a more inclusive Republican Party.

 

Albarracín es una localidad y municipio español del suroeste de la provincia de Teruel, comunidad autónoma deAragón.

La localidad es Monumento Nacional desde 1961; posee la Medalla de Oro al mérito en las Bellas Artes de 1996, y se encuentra propuesta por la Unesco para ser declarada Patrimonio de la Humanidad por la belleza e importancia de su patrimonio histórico.

Se encuentra situada cerca de la antigua ciudad romana de Lobetum. Los árabes llamaron al lugar Alcartam que se derivaría del antiguo topónimo de Ercávida, pasando a denominarse más tarde como Aben Razin, nombre de una familia bereber, de donde se derivaría su nombre actual. Otros opinan que el término «Albarracín» derivaría delcelta alb, 'montaña', y ragin, 'viña', 'uva' o del antropónimo Razin.4

Sin duda el topónimo procede de Ibn (ben) hijo de Razin (reyes taifas de Albarracín desde la fitna hasta Ibn Mardanis, rey Lobo de Murcia. es decir Al lugar de los hijos de Razin, aunque hasta el s. XIX su nombre oficial es Ciudad de Santa María de Albarracín, denominándose en época islámica Santa María de Oriente

El casco antiguo se encuentra construido sobre las faldas de una montaña, rodeada casi en su totalidad por el río Guadalaviar. Al norte se encuentra la sierra de Albarracín, y al sur los montes Universales. Parte de su término municipal está ocupado por el Paisaje protegido de los Pinares de Rodeno.

En los alrededores nacen los ríos Guadalaviar, Tajo, Júcar, Cabriel yJiloca.

Su término municipal es, por razones históricas, uno de los más grandes de la provincia de Teruel (sólo superado por el de Alcañiz) y en él se encuentran las localidades de: Albarracín (capital del municipio), El Cañigral, Las Casillas de Bezas, Collado de la Grulla, Valle Cabriel, El Membrillo, San Pedro y Valdevecar.

El pueblo está encaramado en un peñón y rodeado por el Guadalaviar. Por este lado y mirando hacia el río se hallan edificadas las casas colgadas. Dentro del pueblo sus calles son empinadas y estrechas, con rincones muy pintorescos. La construcción ofrece la original arquitectura popular con la forja propia de la provincia además de tener el color rojizo característico llamado rodeno.

La ciudad se divide en dos zonas:

•la parte antigua, la Ciudad, con sus casas colgadas sobre la hoz del río;

•el Arrabal, situado en la vega del Guadalaviar.

En la Edad de Hierro estuvo habitada por la tribu celta de los lobetanos. Se han encontrado importantes pinturas rupestres epipaleolíticas y neolíticas de estilo levantino, esquemático y semiesquemático en el pinar del rodeno. Durante la época romana se llamó, al parecer, Lobetum, y en tiempos de los visigodos, Santa María de Oriente.

Durante el período andalusí, concretamente el siglo XI, el clan bereber de los Banu Razin alcanzó el poder convirtiéndose en la dinastía soberana de la taifa de Albarracín. De este linaje procede el propio nombre de la población (al-Banu Razin: (la ciudad) de los hijos de Razín). De esta magnífica etapa se conservan dos importantes testimonios: la torre del Andador -situada en lo alto del recinto exterior- y el Castillo de Albarracín, que albergó la antigua alcazaba de los Banu Razin.

La taifa pasó posteriormente, por cesión y no por conquista, a la familia cristiana de linaje navarro de los Azagra, que mantuvieron de facto la independencia deCastilla y de Aragón desde 1170, llegando a crear un obispado propio. También el poderoso linaje de Lara ejerció su soberanía sobre Albarracín. Tras el fracaso de conquista por parte de Jaime I en 1220, es Pedro III de Aragón quien la conquistó en 1285 tras sitiarla, pasando definitivamente a la Corona de Aragón en 1300. Esta serie de hechos políticos tuvieron como base la importancia de la fortaleza y del sistema defensivo de Albarracín.

Es una antigua sede episcopal denominada, primero Arcabricense y después Segobricense hasta que, tras la desmembración de las iglesias de Segorbe (Castellón) de las iglesias de Albarracín, paso a denominarse Albarracinense, tras la Bula Papal de Juan Pablo II, mantiene su independencia pero pasa a ser regida por el Obispo de Teruel que es también Obispo de Albarracín.

El 21 de junio de 1257 el rey Jaime I concedió en Teruel a la Comunidad de Santa María de Albarracín o Comunidad de aldeas de Albarracín el privilegio sobre competencia de jurisdicción de sexmeros, asistentes y jurados de dicha Ciudad

Durante la Guerra Civil Española tuvieron lugar en la localidad combates entre las tropas republicanas y las franquistas, cambiando varias veces el control de la población entre ambos bandos. En julio de 1937 tuvo lugar una ofensiva republicana sobre la localidad, constituyendo el mayor enfrentamiento bélico habido en la localidad durante la guerra. En un rápido ataque, el 8 de julio los republicanos se hicieron con el control de la localidad a excepción del Ayuntamiento y la Catedral, en los que permanecieron sitiados militares y civiles que se habían refugiado previamente. Los sublevados reaccionaron enviando refuerzos y el 13 de julio lograron reconquistar la localidad y expulsar a las tropas republicanas.

Carly Fiorina (born Cara Carleton Sneed; September 6, 1954) is an American former business executive and was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010. Fiorina served as chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard from 1999 to 2005 after being an executive at AT&T and its equipment and technology spinoff, Lucent.

 

Fiorina was considered one of the most powerful women in business during her tenure at Lucent and Hewlett-Packard. While she was chief executive at HP, the company weathered the collapse of the dot-com bubble, although the stock lost half of its value throughout her tenure. In 2002, the company completed a contentious merger with rival computer company Compaq, which made HP the world's largest personal computer manufacturer. In 2005, Fiorina was forced to resign as chief executive officer and chair of HP following "differences [with the board of directors] about how to execute HP's strategy." She has frequently been ranked as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time.

 

Fiorina served as an advisor to Republican John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign. She was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010, losing to incumbent Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer. She is actively considering running for President in 2016.

#FITN First In Nation Republican Leadership Summit, Nashua, New Hampshire

 

Crowne Plaza Nashua

Address: 2 Somerset Pkwy, Nashua, NH 03063

 

Every four years, the political world descends upon New Hampshire to take part in the “First-in-the-Nation” Presidential Primary. On April 17th and 18th that excitement will again percolate in the Granite State for the #FITN Republican Leadership Conference.

 

Carly Fiorina (born Cara Carleton Sneed; September 6, 1954) is an American former business executive and was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010. Fiorina served as chief executive officer of Hewlett-Packard from 1999 to 2005 after being an executive at AT&T and its equipment and technology spinoff, Lucent.

 

Fiorina was considered one of the most powerful women in business during her tenure at Lucent and Hewlett-Packard. While she was chief executive at HP, the company weathered the collapse of the dot-com bubble, although the stock lost half of its value throughout her tenure. In 2002, the company completed a contentious merger with rival computer company Compaq, which made HP the world's largest personal computer manufacturer. In 2005, Fiorina was forced to resign as chief executive officer and chair of HP following "differences [with the board of directors] about how to execute HP's strategy." She has frequently been ranked as one of the worst tech CEOs of all time.

 

Fiorina served as an advisor to Republican John McCain's 2008 presidential campaign. She was the Republican nominee for the United States Senate from California in 2010, losing to incumbent Democratic Senator Barbara Boxer. She is actively considering running for President in 2016.
