Leiria

So it could be a million, we do not know, or half a million.

On the 13th of October 1930, the Bishop de la Silva, the Ordinal of Leiria, proclaimed the church officials' recognition of the authenticity of the Fatima apparitions.

In this letter, the Bishop explicitly mentions the solar prodigy and affirms its miraculous character.

The Solar Phenomenon Rites Hymn of October 13 was the most marvelous of all and made the greatest impression on all those who had the good fortune to witness it.

And this crowd witnessed all the manifestations of the sun which paid homage to the Queen of Heaven and Earth.

By the voice of the Bishop Leiria, the authority of the Church solemnly confirmed the unanimous sentiment of the Portuguese people formulated by the multitude at the very moment of the prodigy.

Miracle! Miracle! These are the miracles of the miracle of the sun.

In the next recording, we will try to explain what this means.

We saw Porto beating a very good academic group, the Viseu side.

So we will have a big Classico being played in the Tassa da Liga in January in Leiria.

Leiria gets to benefit from this great match.

And then we got Sporting.

Played Tuesday, 48 hours.

Like I said, Portimonense, actually Portimonense and Turians, actually, excuse me, they're only separated by one point.

Bafika will be playing Chavesh.

Leiria will be playing AVS.

No background on medical device.

I studied computer engineering here in Leiria, where we are based in Portugal.

And I have been the CTO of my own company ever since I finished my degree.

So I've been CTO for about 10 years now.

A construção da alta velocidade, a construção de ferro, de, de ferrovia nova, tem o potencial, ou se for bem aproveitado, de mudar a estrutura residencial do país.

O que é que eu quero dizer com isto? A partir do momento que Leiria fica a meia hora de Lisboa, ou Coimbra fica a meia hora do Porto, isto muda tudo, ou pode mudar tudo.

O tempo é que conta.

E de fato, e, e, e-

Vamos rodar, vamos ao nosso BCR, porque já tivemos o início da nossa liga e também temos mais um momento histórico para o BCR nacional, como sempre, pela voz do nosso Zé Miguel Gonçalves.

E começou finalmente a liga BCR, desta feita com jornada dupla para a APD Braga, que recebeu e venceu as suas congêneres da APD Lisboa e APD Leiria.

No sábado, APD Braga setenta e três, APD Lisboa vinte e quatro.

Um jogo de sentido único, duas equipas que têm pretensões bastante distintas para, para esta época.

No primeiro jogo, no jogo de sábado, destaque para Filipe Carneiro, o internacional português que representa a equipa da APD Braga, com vinte e sete pontos, é, fazendo fruto da sua velocidade e capacidade de finalização, bem secundado por Márcio Dias, é, ex-capitão da Seleção Nacional de Basquetebol em Cadeira de Rodas e lenda viva do, do nosso BCR, com vinte e dois pontos.

Do lado da resistência, é, apesar de parca resistência da APD Lisboa, tivemos em destaque Emanuel Soares com dez pontos e Bruno Lopes com oito pontos.

APD Braga, no domingo, levou também de vencida, como me tinha referido, a sua congénere da APD Leiria, o jogo grande da jornada.

Duas equipas que protagonizaram nos últimos anos muitos dos prolongamentos que aconteceram na nossa Liga BCR.

But before we do that-

Just, sorry, just speaking of continental, I was in, I was in Leiria last week with Sunderland for the game against Torreense.

Oh, yes.

And I think the phrase I heard most often, because Sunderland fans are so desperate to be seen to be on their best behavior, the phrase I heard most often was, "Obrigado amigo." [laughs]

Right.

Jonathan Wilson not paying for tickets since 1994.

I, I paid for my tickets in Leiria.

Didn't pay for the Poznań ones admittedly, but, uh... [laughs]

Now, there were some bright spots.

Publico notes that family medicine benefited the most, and the region of Leiria actually attracted the highest number of doctors for 2025.

Okay, that's good for Leiria.

It is.

But overall, doctors are looking at the National Health Service, the SNS, and deciding that the systemic burnout and the tax burdens just aren't worth the extra money.

That's significant.

The hunger for information is clearly there.

So what does this all mean? If we pull back and look at the whole board, from the angry tent-filled streets of Porto to the unfilled hospital wards of Leiria, all the way to the deadly skies over Ukraine, today's front pages paint a vivid, unflinching picture of institutions and people heavily testing their limits.

León is eighth.

Sunderland, who won today in Leiria against Torreense, is, uh, ninth.

And Olympiacos, who had a big win today at Marseille, are, uh, they round out the top 10, all on two victories.

So, uh, Benfica's in a good spot right now.

They go to Portugal to get a- away from the, the British winter.

Yeah, it's true.

Um, and you know, there's a good number of Sunderland fans in Leiria today as well.

It did, unfortunately, the stadium wasn't as full as I was hoping for for that game, but, but that, that whole one side was all Sunderland fans, and I'm assuming that the Torreense fans were on the other side.

It's, it's not even the town where Torrent play normally, 'cause their, their stadium's too small.

So they've had to move it to this, this, um, city called Leiria or Leiria, which is-

Mm

... 60 miles away from Torrent.

This is a huge deal for them.

Yeah.

I've just seen a... actually I've seen a tweet just about, about an hour ago by the, the Sunderland supporter liaison officer who's recommending a square in Leiria-

Mm.
