El Paso – Juárez
The neighboring cities of El Paso, USA and Juárez, Mexico share a 440-year history. In the almost 100 years since radio came to both cities, listeners have found their favorite stations with little regard for which side of the Rio Grande in which it is licensed.

James I and fictional authority at the Palatine wedding celebrations
The 1613 marriage of James I's daughter, Elizabeth, to Frederick the Elector Palatine linked two of Europe's strongest Protestant nations. The union presented the possibility of tilting the balance of power away from the Catholic Habsburgs and allowed fervent Protestants in England to imagine themselves taking a leading role in this endeavour. The present essay is concerned with the festivities, public and private, mounted in London to celebrate …
