A widespread blackout affected Spain, Portugal, and parts of southern France on Monday, according to grid operators, disrupting the lives of millions.
The exact cause of the outage was not immediately disclosed.
Spain’s railway operator Adif reported that the power failure brought train services to a standstill nationwide, while airports operator Aena said “several incidents” were reported at Spanish airports.
While studying economics, Brendan found himself comfortably falling down the rabbit hole of restaurant work, ultimately opening a consulting business and working as a private wine buyer. On a whim, he moved to China, and in his first week following a triumphant pub quiz victory, he found himself bleeding on the floor based on his arrogance. The same man who put him there offered him a job lecturing for the University of Wales in various sister universities throughout the Middle Kingdom. While primarily lecturing in descriptive and comparative statistics, Brendan simultaneously earned an Msc in Banking and International Finance from the University of Wales-Bangor. He's presently doing something he hates, respecting French people. Well, two, his wife and her mother in the lovely town of Antigua, Guatemala.
