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.

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 politician. He served as the 43rd Governor of Florida from 1999 to 2007. He is the second son of former President George H. W. Bush and former First Lady Barbara Bush, and is the younger brother of former President George W. Bush. Jeb Bush is the only Republican, and the third person of any party, to serve two full four-year terms as Governor of Florida.
Bush grew up in Houston, Texas. He graduated from Phillips Academy in Andover, Massachusetts and then attended the University of Texas, where he earned a degree in Latin American affairs. Following his father's successful run for Vice President in 1980, he moved to Florida and pursued a career in real estate development. In 1986, Bush was named Florida's Secretary of Commerce, a position he held until resigning in 1988 to help his father's successful campaign for the Presidency.
In 1994, Bush made his first run for office, narrowly losing the election for governor by less than two percentage points to the incumbent Lawton Chiles. Bush ran again in 1998 and beat 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 was credited with initiating improvements in the environment, as well as reforming the education system.
Bush has frequently been mentioned by the media as a possible candidate for president in 2016. On December 16, 2014, Bush announced he would explore the possibility of running for President.

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.

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.

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.
