“They will never see their gold again, just as they do not see their own ears.”Josef StalinGold's strength is that its value exists in and of itself. It's nobody else's liability. Unlike money in the bank or a bond, it carries no promise from a third party, and its value is not dependent on the creditworthiness of any issuer or guarantor. Hand it to someone else and its value is transferred. It is a “bearer” asset, effectively owned by whoever has possession of it. For this reason gold has been the target of many a heist. Quickly resmelt it, and its provenance is very hard to prove.So there is one obvious problem with gold: that is keeping it safe. It's all very well having a pot of gold, but if somebody comes along and takes it from you, as Alexander did from the Persians, or the Conquistadors from the Incas, then you're left with nothing at all.When the Spanish Civil War broke out in 1936, the Soviet Union, under Joseph Stalin, supported the Spanish Republican government. The Nazis supported their opponents, the revolutionary fascist forces led by General Franco. At the time Spanish gold reserves, some 635 tonnes, were the fourth largest in the world.Much of that treasure had been accumulated during WWI, when Spain had stayed neutral. Selling stuff to the British seems to have been the really big earner: 70% of Spanish gold holdings were British sovereigns.With Franco just 20 miles from the capital, the Republicans were on the verge of defeat. Never mind the fascists, there were also rumours that Catalan separatists had hatched plans to take the gold from Madrid to Barcelona. All that gold was at risk.Finance minister, Juan Negrín, and Prime Minister, Francisco Largo Caballero, leant on President Azaña to sign a secret decree to move the gold - some 10,000 cases - to a place “which in his [Negrín's] opinion offers the best security”. Azaña signed and the gold was moved, starting the next day, to Cartajena on the south coast, as far from Franco's armies as possible. The Spanish soldiers who transported the cases thought they were lifting munitions. A fifth of it was then shipped to Marseille where it was traded for French francs, which the Republicans used to fund their side of the war. The rest, 510 tonnes, would be sent to Joseph Stalin in Moscow for safekeeping.Even if Bolshevik sympathisers, what were Negrín and Caballero thinking? The Russians had already demonstrated that they had no qualms about seizing other people's gold. In 1916, the Romanian government sent its treasury of 91 tonnes of gold to Tsarist Russia for safekeeping, worried that it was vulnerable to the Axis powers when Romania had just joined WWI on the side of the Entente. Shortly afterwards, during the Great October Revolution, communists, led by Lenin, seized power, sequestered the gold and refused to give it back. Though small amounts were returned in 1935, 1956, and 2008, “as a gesture of goodwill”, the large majority was retained. As you can imagine, it has been something of a sore spot in diplomatic relations between the two nations ever since.It seems Negrín and Caballero did not know the story. In any case, Caballero actually wrote to Stalin asking if he would “agree to the deposit of approximately 500 tonnes of gold.” Two days later, he got a reply from the Soviet leader, not previously known for his prompt responses. No surprise: Stalin would be “glad” to take the gold.Buying gold or silver to protect yourself in these ‘interesting' times? The bullion dealer I use and recommend is the Pure Gold Company. Pricing is competitive, quality of service is high. They deliver to the UK, the US, Canada and Europe or you can store your gold with them. More here.Alexander Orlov was the Russian agent in charge of transporting the booty. Negrín gave him fake documents to show he was an US official from the Bank of America, in case he should be stopped. Negrín, who, remember, was finance minister, had thought Bank of America was the US central bank. That would be the Federal Reserve. Russian agent Orlov didn't realise either. It's extraordinary.Four Russian ships came to Cartagena to collect the bounty, and the gold was loaded on. There was a discrepancy of 100 cases between Orlov and Spanish treasurer Mendez Aspe's number: Aspe said 7,800 cases, Orlov 7,900. Orlov said nothing. He reported the discrepancy to his superiors, who told him, “Do not worry about figures. Everything will be counted anew in Moscow. Do not mention your figure to anybody.” Aspe didn't even get a receipt off Orlov (who had been instructed not to give him one). “Don't worry, my friend,” said Orlov, “it will be issued by the State Bank of the Soviet Union, when everything is checked and weighed.” We will never know whether Orlov miscounted or whether those 100 boxes went missing.It took them three nights to load the four ships. The Russians then left Cartagena for Odessa in the Black Sea, escorted by the Spanish as far as Italy. From Odessa it was loaded onto a freight train bound for Moscow. "If all the boxes of gold that we piled up on the wharfs of Odessa were to be placed here side by side,” said one of the officials. “They would completely cover up the Red Square".When the gold arrived in Moscow, Stalin celebrated with a banquet at the Kremlin. “They will never see their gold again”, he laughed. “Just as they do not see their own ears.”The Spanish eventually got their receipt: for 5,619 standard cases and 126 damaged. Some distance below both Aspe and Orlov's figure. But three months later the Russians completed the audit, calculating that the shipments totalled 510 tonnes of gold coins and ingots, 90% pure, thus around 460 tonnes of pure gold. There were gold coins from across Europe and Latin America, especially those British sovereigns and Portuguese escudos, but also Spanish pesetas, French, Swiss and Belgian francs, German marks,, Russian rubles, Austrian schillings, Dutch guilders, and Mexican, Argentine and Chilean pesos. The numismatic value of the coins was higher than their gold content.The following year Spain met with a currency crisis. With exceptional chutzpah, even by the standards of politicians, Republicans blamed the inflation on the free market. Nothing to do with the absence of all that gold!Later, the Franco regime was happy to let the story of the "Moscow gold" stolen by Russia spread, as part of its anti-communist propaganda. And yet it appears sell orders from Negrín were actually carried out in 1937 and 1938, for which Spain received pounds, dollars and francs. Spain also received planes, tanks, machine guns, artillery, rifles, cartridges, food and fuel from Russia. The Soviets demanded some compensation for what they had sent during the war, but it's believed that aside from various expenses, the Soviets did not abuse their position and defraud the Spanish. Ultimately then, most of the gold went, one way or another, on the cost of the civil war. Such is the way with war. It is expensive.And just a couple or three years later, as Nazi forces advanced through Europe, the farce of transporting gold would be repeated many times over, and across the continent.Stories like this fill the pages of The Secret History of Gold (although this one didn't actually make the cut).The Secret History of Gold is available to pre-order at Amazon, Waterstones and all good bookshops. I hear the audiobook, read by me, is excellent. The book comes out on August 28. This is a public episode.

STIAN ANGERMUND BUSCA EL TRIPLETE EN MARATÓN MUNDIAL CANFRANC 2025. Entrevista por MayayoLa Maratón del Mundial 2019 en la Patagonia Argentina nos trajo una fabulosa edición, donde en un trazado alpino y nevado del K42 La Angostura, con un recorrido de 41.5km/D+2184m histórico en este mundillo. Se coronaron campeones del mundo el estadounidense Jim Walmsley y la rumana Cristina Simion, mientras España lideró el mundial, sumando un oro masculino y una plata femenina inolvidables.La actual Short Trail debutó en el Mundial Thailandia 2021 sobre un recorrido de 38k/D+2.425m entre las junglas y colinas de Chang Mai, donde los campeones individuales fueron el noruego Stian Angermund y la rumana Denisa Dragomir. Los títulos por equipos fueron para España en categoría femenina e Italia en masculina.El Mundial Short Trail en Innsbruck 2023 deparó un duro recorrido sobre 45k/D+3.135, tan alpino como abrupto y vistoso, donde Stian Angermund logró su segundo oro, mientras Clementine Geoffray conquistaba el oro para una Francia que venció también por equipos en categoría femenina. Gran Bretaña firmó la victoria masculina equipos.LA MARATÓN CANFRANCPIRINEOS EN EL MUNDIAL 2025. El próximo mes de septiembre el corazón del Pirineo aragonés latirá al ritmo de las zancadas más rápidas del planeta en la Short Trail de 45k/D+3.657m. El trazado replica la mítica Maratón CanfrancCanfranc, que durante años ha forjado leyendas entre bosques de pino rojo, barrancos solitarios como el de Epifanio y panorámicas que cortan la respiración; de La Moleta a las faldas del Aspe y más allá. Será un desafío para atletas totales, los que no solo corren sino que trepan, descienden y se mueven por la alta montaña como si formaran parte de ella. Aquí no bastarán unas piernas rápidas: hará falta estrategia para gestionar la dureza del perfil, saber cuándo apretar y cuándo guardar fuerzas, y sobre todo, cabeza para no dejarse atrapar por la belleza áspera de estas cumbres. STIAN ANGERMUND BUSCA EL TRIPLETE. Uno de los grandes protagonistas será, sin duda, Stian Angermund, el noruego de 38 años asentado en Bergen, que sueña con firmar el triplete como colofón a más de diez años de presencia en la élite del Trail running mundial. No ha sido el suyo un camino fácil pues frente al brillo de esos dos oros mundial se haya la sanción de 16 meses por dopaje impuesta por la Federación francesa tras su oro en los 50km de OCC en 2023. En esta entrevista, Stian Angermund comparte con Mayayo sus recuerdos de Thailandia e Innsbruck; su amarga experiencia tras la sanción y sus enormes ilusiones puestas en Canfranc.#carrerasdemontaña #radiotrailConviértete en un seguidor de este podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/radio-trail-carreras-de-montana-mayayo--4373839/support.

La Senda de Camille con Mayayo: Travesía de montaña en Pirineos 109k. Radio Trail Mi Senda de Camille es la historia de una ilusión cumplida: No fue como la soñé de primeras, ni siquiera acabé sano y salvo, pues tengo el aductor roto y habré de purgar los errores cometidos. Pero a pesar de ello, valió la pena esta aventura vivida en tres días y dos noches por un Pirineo salvaje, siguiendo los pasos del último oso nativo de estas montañas, que desapareció allá por 2010. Sígueme para revivir esos 109 kilómetros juntos. Comenzamos en el Col de Somport (1.631 m) con las primeras luces del alba y un aire cargado de promesas y tormentas. El primer día fue un pulso constante entre la calma y la tensión: 40 km y D+1 700 m nos llevaron por el Circo de Aspe majestuoso, el espejo turquesa del Ibón de Estanés (1 988 m) y el rumor de botas en el RefugioLizara (1 540 m) Los truenos del Collado de lo Foratón (2.106 m) nos empujaron a buscar valle abajo elcalor del Gabardito acogedor. Cuando por fin la Selva de Oza (850 m) nos envolvió con su bosque centenario,sentí que Camille, el último oso pirenaico, aún susurraba por esas hayas.  El segundo día fue la etapa reina: 37 km yD+2 000 m de pura intensidad. Del arrullo verde de Oza ascendimos a la brecha aérea del Paso de Anzotiello (1.845 m), con el vacío latiendo a cada lado. Desde allí, la belleza cruda de la Plana de Diego y las Foyas de Gamueta marcó el descenso hasta el Refugio Linza (1.610 m), donde el Petrechema (2.360 m) se alzaba severo, prometiendo desafío para la tarde. La subida al Collado de Petrechema, entre rocas y nubes, fue un acto de fe; y el descenso al Llano de Ansabere (1 600 m), un bálsamo de pastos, queso y silencio roto por marmotas. El Circo de Lescun (1 200 m), con sus cascadas y casas de piedra, nos condujo al Camping Lauzart (885 m),donde el cuerpo se rendía pero el alma sonreía.  La última jornada fue distinta, más íntima: 32 km y D+1 300 m con la carga de un aductor roto y el cielo cargado de tormentas. Renunciamos al trazado alpino por el Refugio Arlet y tomamos el fondo del valle, dejando que nos llevara hasta Urdos (840 m) donde el Camino de Santiago ofreció un susurro de recogimiento antes de afrontar el repecho final al Col de Somport. Allí cerramos el círculo tras tres días, dos noches y 109 km de recuerdos tatuados en el alma. Mi fisioterapeuta, días después, aun no entiende por qué no paré todo al romper el aductor. Yo tampoco me entiendo a veces… pero en aquel momento no era consciente de la rotura y seguir adelante era lo que el corazón pedía. Hoy no me arrepiento de ello, aunque de repetirse quizá mis decisiones fueran otras. Y es que, para mí la Senda de Camille (o cualquier otra gran travesía de montaña) no se mide en kilómetros ni desniveles; se mide en los recuerdos de que me deja para siempre y en la fuerza que te deja dentro para volver a buscar montaña. Y de esa, hoy tengo más que nunca. ¿Te vienes a la próxima? #carrerasdemontaña #radiotrail

Achter de frietliefhebber zit een mens met mooie verhalen, interessante meningen en verrassende dromen. Petra haalt ze voor jou uit het vet, schudt ze op en zorgt voor de juiste saus. Smakelijk!

Join IAPMO experts Dan Cole and Christoph Lohr for a technical exploration of storm drainage system design and the critical equations engineers need to calculate effect flow rates through piping.Among the key insights is the impact of pipe material on flow velocity. For instance, PVC and cast iron pipes of the same size can have vastly different flow capacities. Dan and Christoph discuss the key differences between the Manning and Darcy-Weisbach equations, why current plumbing code tables may not tell the whole story, and how proposed code changes could give designers more accurate tools for material selection.In an era where storms are increasing causing urban flooding from excessive rainfall events, this episode will help engineers to make informed decisions for accurate storm drainage system sizing and ensure optimal performance and longevity. Related Links:Download the white paper, peer-reviewed by 11 industry experts: IAPMO/ASPE White Paper 2-2024, "Capacities of Stacks and Horizontal Drains in Storm Drainage Systems

Mónica Aspe: La reforma Judicial y el Futuro de AT&T en México

Hello Scaling UP! Nation, August is Legionella Awareness Month, and we're excited to bring you in-depth insights on this crucial topic. Usually, we bring you four episodes every August, but this year, you're in luck! With five Fridays this month, we have five episodes packed with valuable information for you. Today, podcast host Trace Blackmore, CWT, is here to answer your pressing questions about Legionella. As industrial water treaters, you are the heroes in the fight against Legionella, protecting your communities and clients against this dangerous bacteria. Scaling up your Legionella knowledge is a great way to celebrate Legionella Awareness Month, and to support you, we've created a free Legionella resources page at www.ScalingUpH2o.com/Legionella Understanding Legionella: Common Questions Answered What is the difference between Legionella and Legionnaires' disease? Legionella is a bacteria responsible for Legionnaires' disease, a type of pneumonia that comes from getting ill after being exposed to Legionella. It thrives in water and poses significant health risks. Legionnaires' disease was discovered in the mid 1970's after several attendees of the American Legion convention got sick after attending the convention. How does a person get Legionnaires' disease? Inhaling water contaminated with Legionella bacteria can lead to infection. What are the symptoms of Pontiac Fever or Legionnaires' disease? Early symptoms mimic the flu, but more severe pneumonia-like symptoms can develop. Look out for high fever, cough, difficulty breathing, chills, and diarrhea.  How common is Legionnaires' disease? Per the CDC, in 2015 there were approximately 6,000 cases reported in the United States. Who is at higher risk for developing Legionnaires' disease? While most people have resistance, fewer than 5 in 100 exposed individuals may develop the disease. High-risk groups include older adults, smokers, and those with weakened immune systems. How does Legionella enter buildings? Legionella enters through a building's makeup water. This is why we need to test the water coming into a building's system and also set up a program to test within the system so we know what to do and respond appropriately if a test comes back positive for Legionella bacteria. What promotes Legionella growth? Biofilm, temperature fluctuations, inadequate disinfectant levels, and water stagnation within building water systems can promote Legionella growth What are Water Management Programs (WMPs)? WMPs are designed to identify hazardous conditions and minimize the growth and spread of waterborne pathogens, including Legionella, in building water systems. How Should I Discuss Legionella Testing Frequency with a Client Who Only Wants to Test Once a Year? When discussing Legionella testing with a client who only wants to test once a year, emphasize the importance of more frequent testing for safety and compliance. Here's how to approach the conversation: Encourage Regular Testing: I always encourage people to test for Legionella at least every season or quarter. Regular testing helps identify potential issues early, ensuring the safety of your water system. Refer to the Water Management Plan (WMP): It's crucial to refer back to your Water Management Plan (WMP) to understand the necessary steps if a test comes back positive for Legionella bacteria. Develop a Comprehensive Plan: Let's come up with a plan outlining what we are going to test, how often we will test, and how we will use the data. We should also decide how to handle positive results, particularly for different Legionella species. Taking some time to plan upfront will streamline the process when collecting water samples. By emphasizing the benefits of regular testing and a proactive approach, you can help clients understand the importance of more frequent Legionella testing and the value of a detailed WMP. Where can I find more information? On our Scaling UP! H2O Legionella Resources Page at www.ScalingUpH2o.com/Legionella there you'll find Legionella resources collected from the CDC, ASHRAE, OSHA, ASPE, WHO, ASSE, APIC, AIHA, ANSI, ASDWA, AWT, CMS, and others along with our prior Legionella podcast episodes, Legionella Legislation, and Legionella videos.  If you have a helpful Legionella resource not listed on our page, please reach out to our Executive Producer Corrine Drury at Corrine@Blackmore-enterprises.com and we will gladly add that to our Scaling UP! H2O Legionella Resources Page. Upcoming 2024 Legionella Awareness Month Episodes: This month, we have a special lineup of episodes focusing on Legionella, featuring expert guests who will share their insights: Episode 376: Dr. Janet Stout, PhD Episode 377: Michael Loewenstein Episode 378: Dr. Alberto Comazzi, PhD Episode 379: Loraine Huchler Stay tuned, and let's scale up our knowledge together to combat Legionella and ensure safer water systems.
