A principios de enero, China anunció haber descubierto reservas de 20 millones de toneladas de cobre, en cuatro bases de recursos ubicados en el altiplano tibetano. La información ha generado cierta preocupación en Chile, país que produce el 40% del cobre mundial.  China dijo haber hallado cuatro grandes yacimientos de cobre en la meseta Tibetana-Qinghai, en el norte del país - una región apodada el techo del mundo, con una altitud de 4500 metros. Se estima que ahí hay las reservas de 20 millones de toneladas, que podrían incluso alcanzar los 150 millones de toneladas, y competir con Chile, el mayor exportador de cobre del mundo. Andrés Solimano es economista y presidente del Centro Internacional de Globalización y Desarrollo, explica a RFI que, no obstante, el impacto en el mercado no tiene que ser inmediato: "Una cosa es encontrar los recursos y después otra es construir las capacidades para extraerlo. Requiere inversiones que toman tiempo. Entonces puede que el efecto no sea inmediato. Depende de la tecnología que estén utilizando. Puede tomar cinco años o una década empezar a explotar". Solimano recuerda que de materializarse la competencia china, no sería la primera vez que Chile se enfrenta a una situación similar: Chile ya tuvo una experiencia 90 años atrás, casi 100 años, con el salitre. Chile estaba especializado en la producción de salitre. Después, Alemania descubrió el salitre sintético y desarrolló el salitre sintético, que provocó una crisis importante económica en Chile"."Hay antecedentes históricos que muestran la vulnerabilidad que tiene depender de los recursos naturales para desarrollarse económicamente. En la medida que haya más productores internacionales de cobre, la posibilidad de que aumente la oferta es mayor y eso puede tener un efecto depresivo sobre el precio del cobre en los mercados internacionales y afectar a Chile", concluye en este apartado.  Leer también'Escondida', la mayor mina de cobre del mundo en ChileChina de hecho es uno de los principales compradores de cobre. Con este hallazgo se volvió a plantear el debate sobre la diversificación de la economía chilena, y se ha insistido en reforzar la industria y no solo la extracción.Así lo explica el economista: "Chile ha sido una estrategia muy dependiente de extraer el material en bruto y exportarlo más que de refinarlo y aumentar más el valor agregado, comprando tubos de cobre que están manufacturados en China. Le vende a China el cobre en bruto, China lo manufactura y Chile compra manufactura de cobre. Va y vuelve, pero el valor agregado se realiza en China, por ejemplo, o en otros países.

Lezione dedicata a ricapitolare la situazione europea e, più in generale, mediterranea nella seconda metà del '500. L'Europa si caratterizza per la frammentazione religiosa e le guerre sante conseguenti alla rottura dell'unità cattolica ad opera di Martin Lutero, Enrico VIII e Giovanni Calvino. In una prospettiva più ampia, il fatto nuovo è l'ascesa travolgente dell'impero ottomano, che si amplia notevolmente sotto il sultanato di Solimano il Magnifico e del suo successore, il figlio Selim II. Tutto il Mediterraneo orientale è egemonizzato dai turchi e questo produce l'inevitabile contrasto con l'ex superpotenza dell'area, ovvero la Repubblica di Venezia.

In questa lezione proviamo a ricapitolare quali nemici si trovò ad affrontare Carlo V tali da impedirgli di ottenere il suo obiettivo politico, ovvero il raggiungimento dell'universalismo tanto ricercato dagli imperatori medievali. Oltre alla ovvia opposizione della Francia, che provava a difendersi nella sua scomoda posizione di paese circondato da nemici, c'era l'impero ottomano, reduce dalla vittoriosa campagna contro l'impero bizantino, crollato nel 1453. Nell'età di Solimano il Magnifico, i Turchi infestano con la pirateria il Mediterraneo centrale e orientale, anche portando incursioni e razzie sulle coste dell'Europa meridionale. Inoltre, spingono sui Balcani, facendo cadere uno dopo l'altro molti regni, compreso quello di Boemia ed Ungheria di Luigi II, caduto in seguito alla battaglia di Mohacs del 1526. Inizia l'età in cui Vienna confina con una civiltà nemica e a difenderla sarà proprio Carlo V. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stefano-dambrosio5/message

La lezione comincia riepilogando la situazione europea nel secondo '500: la Francia stabilizzata da un editto di tolleranza che garantisce agli ugonotti la libertà religiosa, l'Inghilterra ormai saldamente ancorata all'anglicanesimo, l'Italia sottoposta al controllo spagnolo e occupata nel controllo poliziesco dei libri da censurare in ottemperanza ai decreti del Concilio tridentino, l'area tedesca priva di conflitti dalla pace di Augusta (1555). Alle porte d'Europa incombono i Turchi, relativamente meno minacciosi dopo la morte di Solimano il Magnifico e dopo la sconfitta di Lepanto (1571), ma sempre pronti ad approfittare di debolezze e distrazioni cristiane. In questo quadro si apre un nuovo contenzioso tra Vienna e Praga per questioni di natura sia religiosa che politica. Ne scaturirà un conflitto di grande portata, capace di trascinare tutta l'Europa in una nuova guerra di religione. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stefano-dambrosio5/message

Francesca Thellung di Courtelary"Il medico di Istanbul"Giunti Editorewww.giunti.itMediterraneo Orientale, 1558. Sulla galea che lo conduce a Istanbul, lo schiavo Melchiorre Guilandino entra nelle grazie del potente ammiraglio Uluch Alì guarendolo dalla tigna, impresa in cui nessun luminare era mai riuscito. Melchiorre, infatti, è un brillante medico che i turchi hanno fatto prigioniero mentre era in cerca di erbe curative per la sua preziosa collezione. Giunto nella capitale, in virtù delle sue competenze evita la prigionia e viene condotto alla corte del più grande sovrano dell'epoca, Solimano il Magnifico, che lo destina a una sorte ancora più atroce: provvedere all'evirazione degli eunuchi per l'harem imperiale. Melchiorre, ribelle e idealista, non può né vuole piegare la sua arte medica a un compito così terribile, e chiede a Uluch Alì di aiutarlo a fuggire a Padova dalla persona che ama, il collega Gabriele Falloppio. Lo spietato e astuto ammiraglio, però, esige in cambio un prezzo altissimo: Melchiorre dovrà giacere in gran segreto con la figlia di Alì, Mariam, e farle concepire un bambino che lei possa poi spacciare per il figlio dell'anziano marito. Il rischio dell'impresa è enorme, Melchiorre non vuole tradire Falloppio ma è costretto a mettersi in gioco per riprendere in mano le redini della sua vita. In questo turbinio di eventi si intrecciano le vicende, le passioni e i destini del serraglio. Sullo sfondo di una Istanbul magnifica e crudele, Francesca Thellung di Courtelary dà vita a una storia d'amore e morte che sorprende, appassiona e coinvolge fino all'ultima riga.Francesca Thellung di CourtelaryNata a Roma nel 1962, si laurea in Storia della Lingua italiana con il professor Luca Serianni alla Sapienza Università di Roma, e insegna materie umanistiche al liceo. Ha pubblicato saggi a carattere storico e linguistico per i cataloghi di mostre curate dal Ministero dei Beni Culturali e ha collaborato per oltre dieci anni con l'Istituto dell'Enciclopedia Italiana Treccani.

In quest'episodio ci concentriamo sull'espansione dell'impero ottomano sotto il sultanato di Solimano il Magnifico e di suo figlio Selim II. Il mar Mediterraneo è infestato dalla pirateria turca, che rende insicuro il traffico mercantile e provoca ingenti perdite ai regni cristiani. Città come Algeri, Tunisi, Orano sono covi di corsari finanziati dal sultano. Le Repubbliche marinare, persi i rapporti privilegiati che avevano con l'impero bizantino, riscattano a suon di denaro il controllo su alcune isole del Mediterraneo orientale. Così fa anche Venezia per Cipro. Tuttavia questa finisce nel mirino di Selim e viene conquistata nel 1571. La fine riservata dai turchi ai Veneziani che proteggevano la fortezza di Famagosta desterà l'orrore di tutto il mondo cristiano, e convincerà tutti a rompere gli indugi ingaggiando l'epica battaglia di Lepanto. --- Send in a voice message: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/stefano-dambrosio5/message

China could say it was bigger than Russia, U.S. America could claim more territory than Canada, and North Korea could say it was bigger than all of them combined (hell, it probably does).This is the world one steps into when trying to ascertain the size of New England ski areas. Mt. Abram claims 450 acres. Middlebury Snow Bowl brags on “600-plus acres of woods and glades,” which would make it larger than Sugarbush, the Alterra-owned mega-resort that undersells itself with a 581-acre tally. Here's what the aliens would see if they were to match our internet boasts up to measurable reality:Did Middlebury Snowbowl acquire the air rights over its mountain? Is Mt. Abram built like Istanbul, with several ancient ski areas buried beneath the modern foundation, giving us a vast ski labyrinth to explore?This strategy probably worked better when most skiers' mode of resort comparison was “scanning a bunch of brochures at a rest area.” It's harder to maintain when every human carries a device equipped with a map of planet earth in their pocket at all times. But ski areas keep fibbing anyway.Which is probably why, several years ago, Killington started measuring itself like a Western ski area: draw a border around the property – that's your skiable terrain. Oh, and we'll no longer yell at you for skiing in the woods, which is technically “terrain” even if the underbrush is too thick for anything larger than a chipmunk to navigate.Some of you would like me to challenge statistical inconsistency across the ski industry as a main feature of this newsletter. But I prefer to just make fun of it. If Mt. Abram wants to be the Baghdad Bob of New England skiing, well, what else are you going to do for attention when you're across the street from Sunday River, whose annual lift-upgrade budget exceeds the GDP of Australia?But until the North Conway Treaty of 2038, at which the ski areas of North America will collectively agree upon a universal statistical standard based upon actual measurements, I'm just going to take their word for it (sort of). Here's a list of New England ski areas from largest to smallest, by skiable acreage, according to the ski resort's own claims (I excluded Middlebury Snowbowl and Mt. Abram, which more accurately measure out at 110 and 170 acres, respectively):Anyone who's spent any amount of time skiing New England knows that something feels off with this list. Sugarbush, Stowe, and Jay – three of the dozen or so New England ski areas with reliable glades – ski as big as anything in the East. All three feel substantively larger than Stratton or Mount Snow. And neither Bolton Valley nor Black Mountain of Maine ski on the scale of Cannon or Waterville Valley.But no one is disputing that top line. Killington is the largest ski area in New England. You can quibble about the vertical drop – the gut of Killington is the 1,650-ish-foot K-1 face. To scoop up the full 3,000-plus feet requires a rarely-skied meander down to the Skyeship Base at US 4. Mt. Ellen at Sugarbush (2,600 vertical feet), Madonna at Smuggs (2,150), FourRunner at Stowe (2,046), the single chair at Mad River Glen (1,972 feet), and Sugarloaf's spectacular 2,820-foot face all deliver more sustained steep skiing than The Beast.But there's nothing else in the East on Killington's scale, the massive overlapping network of six peaks rolling in all directions from the frantic hub. It's one of the few ski areas, East or West, where I ever truly feel lost. There's something brilliantly scattershot about it, something feral and boundless and enigmatic, as though 16 small ski areas had been stapled together by someone who's never skied. There are insane traverses and endless flats, riotously steep trees and bumps all over, long groomers that you think lead back to the same lift you just exited, but instead seem to deposit you in New Hampshire. There are trails on the far fringe that feel abandoned on even the busiest days, where you suspect without being able to prove it that you've been transported to an alternate dimension of groomed forever-down, or at least back to a time before the Ikon Pass gave every skier on the eastern seaboard an annual allotment of Killington lift tickets.It all works somehow. This great machine, howling like an armor-plated Mad Max rig, a cobbled-together war machine screaming across the winter plains. It feels like it should fall apart, disintegrate by the combined forces of speed and volume. But it carries on, the growling, supercharged id of New England winter, The Beast a gloss well-earned.What we talked aboutWhat's behind Killington's run of June closings; building the Superstar Glacier; why “The Beast” returned; how Killington pulled off the 2022 World Cup with a wildly warm November; what happened to October openings; early- versus late-season energy; whether social media makes the spring skiing party seem bigger than it is; Pico's massive, multi-year snowmaking evolution; “Pico's probably not worth what one detachable lift costs on its own” – the hard math of lift upgrades; Powdr Corp's long-term commitment to Pico; Pico's private mid-week mountain rentals; the new K-1 lodge; falling in love with skiing on a Magic Mountain powder day; when you start as chief financial officer and the parent company informs you that they may not be able to make payroll the following month; Killington's rowdy transition from American Skiing Company to Powdr Corp to present-day calm; why Powdr Corp had such a tough time adapting to New England, and how the company finally did; online absurdities; the evolution of Powdr Corp; a Killington base village, on the way at last; why the village took so long to permit; “to be a successful village, it can't just be a bunch of condos”; putting pedestrians first; what the village will mean for parking at Ramshead, Snowshed, Vale, and K-1; employee housing; how the village will connect to the resort's lift system; whether we could see a lift from the village up to K-1; why Killington hasn't upgraded Snowshed yet; redesigning Killington Road; fixing Killington's water-quality issues; considering mass transit along Killington Road; priorities for lift upgrades at both ski areas; where Killington could install another six-pack; whether future sixers would have bubbles or D-line tech; why eight-pack lifts are unlikely; the potential for upgrades for the Bear Mountain quad and Snowden triple; what could eventually replace Outpost at Pico; current thinking around the Killington-Pico Interconnect; Fast Tracks two years in; Fast Tracks season passes; the Beast 365 and Ikon Base Pass add-on; and whether Beast 365 passholders are complaining about the dilution of the Ikon Base Pass (spoiler alert: they are).Why I thought that now was a good time for this interviewStorm Skiing Podcast #1: Killington & Pico President & General Manager Mike Solimano, was not the first episode I ever recorded, but it was the first one I released. Because, as I wrote at the time, “if you're going to start something like a podcast about Northeast skiing, you really ought to lead off with the most punch-you-in-your-face prominent part of Northeast skiing.” Starting this series with the head of the largest and baddest ski resort in New England injected The Storm with an instant patina of legitimacy, a forked road into journalism from the speculating, self-assured masses endlessly debating ski areas on social media.There are hazards, of course, to going first, especially for a rapidly evolving brand like The Storm. A lot has changed in four years. The podcast sounds better. The Storm's scope has expanded nationwide, embedding each subject in a national, rather than a regional, context. The article accompanying each episode is far richer, with maps and stats and charts that the reader once had to source on their own. And I hope – I'll let the listener decide – that I've improved as an interviewer and as a host.It was time to reset Killington and Pico. But with purpose. My mission, at The Storm's outset four years ago, was simply to make connections with ski area leaders. The podcast episodes were more general-information sessions than conversations tuned to the moment. But almost every podcast on the current schedule is pegged to some tangible development: Keystone (scheduled for the week of Sept. 11), is opening the Bergman Bowl expansion after a one-year delay; Snowbird (Sept. 18), is a big player in the controversial Little Cottonwood Canyon gondola project; Attitash (Nov. 6), is at long last replacing the Summit Triple with a high-speed quad. Even Great Bear, South Dakota – scheduled for the week of Sept. 25 – is planning a new lift and expansion.Killington just announced what is potentially the most transformative project in New England skiing for at least a generation: the approval to build, at long last, a (hopefully pedestrian) base village in the vast basin between Snowshed and Ramshead, a space currently occupied by parking lots sizeable enough to house the population of Ecuador. The East does not currently have anything like this – at least not at the foot of a ski area, where such things ought to be. But the region desperately needs this sort of human-scaled infrastructure.I live in New York City, which means I am surrounded by acquaintances who have the means and desire to ski, but who do not necessarily ski that often. They will frequently petition me for recommendations that sound something like: where can I take my family/group of friends/brunch club skiing for a long weekend that is within driving distance of the city, has somewhere to stay on the mountain, and has food/drinking options within a short walk? And my answer to them is: there is nothing like that here. Go to Park City/Breckenridge/Aspen/somewhere else out West. New England is so preoccupied with preserving their natural environment that most meaningful development is done a several-mile drive from the major ski hills, which of course compromises the natural environment with sprawl, excessive traffic, and parking lots the size of the Mendenhall Glacier.There are some minor exceptions to this: small villages at Stratton and Stowe. Ample slopeside accommodations at Smugglers' Notch and Okemo. But none of these give the skier that sense of place they'll find in Steamboat or Crested Butte or even Vail Village, with its pedestrian walkways paved over what had been wilderness until the 1960s. But who says a new village is a “fake” village, as they're so often framed? A place for people to gather is a place for people to gather, and if we could build such places 2,000 years ago, we can build them today.New England deserves this. Because great ski areas are better when the community doesn't end at the bottom of the lift queue. Because once we build one, others will follow. Because it's a fairly stupid fact that the region of the United States most known for its quaint small towns is without a single quaint ski town (meaning, one that backs up to the ski resort). Because Built America has sprawled out enough, and its time to back up and fill in all the blank space with something better. Because there is no better way for a state preoccupied with preserving its natural environment to build than in dense clusters of life and activity. And because it would be fabulous and because it would work and because I'm tired of telling New Yorkers to fly to Aspen when Killington ought to be able to give them everything they need.Questions I wish I'd askedI wanted to talk a bit about the Woodward park that Powdr has been dropping at Killington each of the past several winters. I also had a few questions about passes: the Pico K.A.'s odd name, the creeping price of the Killington spring pass, whether the Mountain Collective was in play for Killington.What I got wrongAbout the size of PicoI said Pico was about “the size of Cannon or the size of Waterville Valley.” This is kind of true but was also an on-the-fly guess. As is clear from the skiable acreage discussion above, gauging the size of New England ski areas is a little bit of a party game. I think Pico and Waterville are about the same size, but Pico, mimicking Killington's border-to-border measurement philosophy, claims 468 acres. Waterville, which, according to general manager Tim Smith, only counts trail acreage, sits at 265 acres. But both hit right around 2,000 feet of vert. Cannon is a bit higher, at 2,180. Still, I think it was a fair comparison. Here are New England's tallest ski areas, organized by vertical drop:About resumesI said in the intro that Solimano had joined Killington in 2002. He actually started in December 2001, as he clarifies in the interview.About the Ikon Base PassWhen discussing the erosion of the Ikon Base Pass over time, I said that “Alterra had taken mountains off” the pass. That wasn't exactly right or fair. Former Alterra CEO Rusty Gregory told me on the podcast last year that Alterra resisted creating the Plus tier for Ikon Base. But Jackson Hole and Aspen, facing locals' revolts over the pass' impact, insisted on doing something. The Ikon Base Plus, then, was a compromise. Other ski areas have followed since the Base Plus debuted in 2020: Alta and Deer Valley (the latter of which Alterra does own) in 2022, and Taos in 2023. Snowbasin and Sun Valley opted for Base Plus over Base when they joined the coalition in 2022.Still, however we got here, the fact is this: the Ikon Base Pass excludes seven of the pass' most attractive destinations. Unfortunately, passholders at partner resorts that offer an Ikon Base Pass with their top-tier season passes (Sugarloaf, Sunday River, Loon, Killington, Windham, Aspen, Big Sky, Taos [sold out], Alta, Snowbasin, Snowbird, Brighton, Jackson Hole [sold out], Sun Valley, Mt. Bachelor, Boyne Mountain), are not able to upgrade to an Ikon Base Plus or full Ikon Pass. Several leaders of the above-mentioned mountains have confirmed to The Storm that their passholders find this annoying, like getting a year of free Domino's but being told that you can only order salad and sandwiches. No pizza for you. Alta is the pizza on the Ikon Pass. Jackson Hole is pizza. Aspen is pizza. Blue Mountain is a Chicken Ceasar salad. It's nice. It tastes fine. But really everyone wants the pizza.Here's that chart again tracking Ikon Pass partners by tier over time:Why you should ski Killington and PicoOne reason to ski Killington is easy: often, it's your only option. The mountain closed June 1 this year, more than a month after every other resort in the region other than Jay and Sugarbush, which both ran to May 7. On the other end, The Beast has somewhat ceded its rush to open. After six October openings in the eight seasons beginning in 2011, Killington hasn't spun the lifts before Halloween since 2018 (warm falls and Covid haven't helped). But they're rarely beaten to go-live in New England, and seasons that push or exceed 200 days make sure the mountain's expensive season pass is worth it.Pico is funny. If it were anywhere else other than exactly next door to the largest ski area in New England, Pico might be a major ski area. Its 468 acres would make it the largest ski area in New Hampshire. A 2,000-foot vertical drop is impressive anywhere. The mountain has two high-speed lifts. And, by the way, knockout terrain. There is only one place in the Killington complex where you can run 2,000 vertical feet of steep terrain: Pico.The American norm is that skier visits move east-to-west. But I'll get an occasional email from a Rocky Mountain dweller who's visiting family out east, and they want to know where to ski. There are 100 ski areas in New England – more than in Colorado (34), California (30), Utah (18), and Montana (16) combined. How do you sort through all that? If you want my recommendations of what to do with a week, I'd tell you to start with Killington, then move north through Sugarbush, Mad River Glen, Stowe, Smugglers' Notch, and Jay Peak. Then cross the top of New England to Sugarloaf. That's the best of what we've got. But The Beast, the king of them all, is Killington.Podcast NotesMiscellany on items discussed in the podcast:On Killington's historic opening and closing datesKillington has done a nice job documenting these on its website:On the history of the Women's World Cup at KillingtonSince 2016, Killington has acted as the early-season U.S. stop on the Women's World Cup, drawing enormous, raucous crowds. While I don't cover ski racing or competition, I acknowledge the importance of this event to Killington, as an ancillary business, as a celebration of the sport, as a cultural token, and as a showcase of the resort's singular snowmaking firepower. You can sign up for Killington's World Cup updates here.On North Ridge early-season skiingEarly-season skiing at Killington is a novel, inventive, highly orchestrated event. Typically, only three runs are open, and they are lodged on an area called North Ridge near the top of Killington Peak. Skiers park in the K-1 lot, ride the K-1 gondola over brown slopes to the summit, walk across a catwalk (and its many, many steps), and arrive in winter: typically the Rime, Reasons, and East Fall trails, snowy and frantic with fellow early-season lunatics. The concentration of very good skiers tends to be quite amazing, as the Park Brahs are Parking Out Brah – with whatever little knoll they can turn into a feature (plus, usually, a few built on Reason by Killington's parks crew). You lap North Ridge Quad for as long as you can tolerate, but you can't ski back down – there's no snow below East Fall. So you have to hike back up the catwalk, back to K-1, and ride the gondy back down to the parking lot. Here's a diagram:It's less about the skiing, frankly, than about being a part of something unique and joyful. The skiing, however, is sometimes quite good, especially if it's cold enough to leave the snowguns running, refreshing the surface all day long.On Pico's lift fleetPico has one of the oldest lift fleets in New England – the last new lift install was 35 years ago. Strangely, the mountain also has two high-speed quads, both the (historically) problematic Yan detachables (read more on that in the Podcast Notes section here). But, for reasons Solimano details in the podcast, new lifts are unlikely anytime soon. Pico's current state, per Lift Blog:On Powdr Corp's portfolioKillington is one of 10 North American ski areas owned by Park City-based Powdr Corp:On the lawsuit around lifetime season passesWhen Powdr Corp purchased Killington in 2007, the company inherited the largest ski area in New England – and a gigantic anchor in the form of 1,243 “lifetime” season passes distributed by a former owner. Powdr said, “Yeah we're not doing that,” the passholders sued, and Powdr ultimately won. A 2010 synopsis from Legal Blog Watch:Twenty years ago, Killington, Vt., resident Martin Post and his wife, Jill, paid about $3,500 each for lifetime ski passes at Killington Resort. The Posts are happily still alive but, as of May 17, 2010, their passes are not.The Times Argus reports that in May, U.S. Judge Christina Reiss found that the resort's current owners, SP Land Co. and Powdr Corp., which purchased Killington Resort in 2007, were under no legal obligation to honor the passes that were sold in the early years of the ski area as an incentive to attract investors.The class action litigation before Judge Reiss involved 1,243 pass holders -- 342 yearly transferable passes and 901 passes that could be transferred a single time. The plaintiffs alleged that under the wording of the investor passes, the holder is entitled "to the free use of all ski lifts operated by (Sherburne) Killington Ltd. at (Killington Basin) Killington Ski Area so long as the corporation shall operate in that area under an agreement with the state of Vermont." Plaintiffs claimed that the reference to "the corporation" meant any subsequent operator of the ski area, including the new owners, but the court disagreed.Judge Reiss granted the defendants' motion for summary judgment, finding that "the only reasonable interpretation of that language is that it requires Killington Ltd. to provide the designated passholder free use of all ski lifts operated by Killington Ltd. at the Killington Ski Area so long as it operates in that area ... "The term corporation, she wrote, "clearly refers to the named corporations, Sherburne and Killington Ltd." and "reveals no intention to bind Killington Ltd's successors ... To the contrary, Killington Ltd.'s obligations under the passes clearly terminate with its cessation of operations in the area."The plaintiffs have appealed Reiss' decision to the 2nd U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals.I'm assuming the plaintiffs lost the appeal, but I can't find any record of it.On New England's 100 ski areasHere's the inventory - collect them all!

El presidente de Chile Gabriel Boric cumple este 11 de marzo un año al frente del gobierno de Chile, con un duro revés en el Congreso tras el rechazo a su reforma tributaria, pero consolidando un repunte en las encuestas. Este sábado 11 de marzo se cumple el primer año de Gabriel Boric a la cabeza de Chile. Expertos aseguran que es un gobierno que se ha ido consolidando tras el inicio difícil, saliendo de la crisis sanitaria por la Covid-19 y del estallido social de 2019 y sus secuelas. El presidente chileno priorizó los problemas de seguridad ciudadana, el manejo de la inmigración, así como el crecimiento económico. Según las últimas encuestas, la aprobación de su gestión es cercana al 39%. “Apoyo progresista” “Ha tenido oposición crítica en el Parlamento, pero no ha tenido una oposición social como tuvo el gobierno de Sebastián Piñera de derecha, en sentido de una desorganización social y de la población crítica del gobierno, saliendo a la calle… Eso no ha pasado, ha sido un año bastante tranquilo socialmente”, explica a RFI el economistaAndrés Solimano, presidente del Centro Internacional de Globalización y Desarrollo (CIGLOB), en Santiago de Chile. “Creo que refleja que es un gobierno de centroizquierda, que ha prometido transformaciones, entonces la población le ha dado cierto apoyo progresista, con una agenda de cambios limitada por la realidad chilena”, recalca el economista, agregando que los incendios de enero y febrero contribuyeron también a aumentar su popularidad. Rechazo de la reforma tributaria Este primer año ha sido marcado por el rechazo a una nueva Constitución para reemplazar la heredada de la dictadura de Augusto Pinochet, proyecto con el que el gobierno se había comprometido, y más recientemente, por el rechazo de la Cámara de Diputados a una reforma tributaria que buscaba financiar su ambicioso plan de reformas sociales. “Esta reforma tenía varios acápites. Le iba a subir los impuestos al ingreso, también fortalecía la atribución del servicio de renta y de impuestos internos en Chile. Con los recursos que se iban a recaudar, se iba a financiar la Pensión Garantizada Universal, que es una especie de pensión básica que, financiada con recursos del Estado, beneficiaría a las personas de menor renta y renta media. También se incluía un impuesto al patrimonio de las familias más ricas. Entonces el paquete tenía un contenido redistributivo, pero eso fue rechazado”, detalla Solimano. Según el economista, las motivaciones del rechazo“pueden ser desde obstruccionismo parlamentario hasta defensa de intereses de las personas de alta renta que tienen influencia en la acción legislativa de Chile”. “Cuando el país comienza a mostrar señales de recuperación, cuando empezamos a salir adelante de una crisis larga, nuevamente hay un sector que intenta hacer que las cosas no cambien, dejar las cosas tal cual como están”, fustigó el mandatario la noche del miércoles. Muchos analistas destacan que Boric ha consentido algunas decisiones del Congreso, aunque se haya opuesto a ellas en la época como diputado, como la ratificación del Tratado Integral y Progresista de Asociación Transpacífico (CPTPP, por sus siglas en inglés), un tratado comercial entre 11 países de la región Asia-Pacífico.

La Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (Cepal) advierte que América Latina evidenciará un menor crecimiento el próximo año.  El contexto internacional desfavorable, "en el que se espera una desaceleración tanto del crecimiento como del comercio global, tasas de interés más altas y menor liquidez global", producto del conflicto bélico entre Rusia y Ucrania, acentuará la desaceleración económica de los países de la región. Todas las subregiones de América Latina evidenciarán un menor crecimiento el próximo año: América del Sur crecerá un 1,2% frente a 3,4% de 2022, mientras que Centroamérica y México lo hará en un 1,7% versus 2,5%. El Caribe, en tanto, crecerá 3,1%, sin incluir Guyana, en comparación con el 4,3% de este año. La subida de tasas de interés en el mundo para contener la inflación, lo que repercutirá negativamente sobre el consumo privado y la inversión, complican las perspectivas de las economías de América Latina, por eso la Cepal prevé una desaceleración económica en 2023. “Algunos países exportadores de petróleo les beneficia el contexto actual como México, Ecuador o Venezuela. Pero el resto de países son importadores de petróleo y energía en general, así que este es un shock que encarece en general los costes de producción y tiene un efecto potencialmente negativo sobre el nivel de actividad”, analiza el chileno, Andrés Solimano, presidente del Centro Internacional de Globalización y Desarrollo. La Comisión Económica para América Latina y el Caribe (Cepal) explica que la mayoría de los países de la región "se ven particularmente afectados por el bajo dinamismo de China, que es un importante mercado para sus exportaciones de bienes".  A ciertos países se les suman problemas internos económicos complejos.    “Argentina, con una inflación muy alta, alrededor del 83%, Venezuela también tiene mucha inflación. Así que sus bancos están haciendo políticas monetarias restrictivas que también como en el caso de Chile afectan al ritmo de crecimiento económico”, dice Solimano. El país más afectado de la región en 2023 será Chile. Tendrá una caída del 0,9% de su Producto Interno Bruto. El economista Andrés Solimano explica algunas de las razones. “El Banco Central de Chile ha aplicado una política muy agresiva de aumento de tasas de interés, más de 10 puntos porcentuales en un año. Después, el ministerio de Hacienda redujo este año el gasto público un 25%. Y el otro factor es que las empresas en Chile están distribuyendo un porcentaje muy alto de utilidades a sus accionistas, postergando proyectos de inversión”, asegura el economista. A medida que se debiliten el comercio con Estados Unidos y las remesas, las economías de Centroamérica, también se desacelerarán, pese a que se beneficiarán de los precios más bajos de las materias primas de las que son compradores.

Nell'anno che abbiamo passato a raccontarvi cosa renda la Toscana così unica, non abbiamo dedicato abbastanza spazio alle donne di questa terra. Dopo averci avuto a che fare per mezzo secolo, non abbiamo alcun dubbio: sono straordinarie come la nostra piccola grande patria. Per trovarne altre capaci di combinare senza sforzo così tante caratteristiche diverse, dovreste andare all'altro capo del mondo. Basta che non vi fate ingannare dal loro buonumore o dal loro fascino: quando il gioco si fa duro, avercele contro è un incubo. Pensate stia esagerando? Cosa dire della sedicenne maremmana che fu rapita dai pirati, venduta ad un harem a Costantinopoli e fu in grado non solo di ricomprare la sua libertà ma addirittura di sposare lo scapolo più ricco e potente del mondo? Questa settimana What's Up Tuscany vi racconta l'incredibile storia di Margherita Marsili, la nobildonna senese che riuscì a diventare la moglie di Solimano il Magnifico, il più potente imperatore ottomano, dopo averlo "conosciuto" nel suo enorme harem. La sua storia all'insegna del coraggio e della determinazione è resa ancora più speciale dal fatto che gran parte degli esperti al di fuori della Toscana sembrano convinti che la famosa "Roxelana" fosse nata altrove, tra la Polonia e l'Ucraina. La sua storia, la leggenda e le prove della sua toscanità in questo episodio del nostro podcast, assolutamente da non perdere. Fateci sapere cosa ne pensate di questo tipo di contenuto, se vi piace o se preferireste che parlassimo di arte, cultura, angoli sconosciuti della nostra regione o consigli per viaggi e gite fuori porta.

As the 2021-22 ski season approaches, host Justin Cash connects with Killington General Manager and President Mike Solimano. As always, Mike is incredibly candid about his role at Killington as well as the road that brought him here, including a look back at his first day skiing in Vermont (3:35) and the day he learned he was being promoted to president and general manager of the resort (6:00). Mike also dives deep into what skiers and riders can expect at Killington this winter, including COVID-19 protocols (8:24), the status of the new K-1 Lodge (15:15) and updates on the 2021 Women's World Cup (16:55) to name a few. Finally, we learn what Mike is most looking forward to this season (27:55).

The Storm Skiing Podcast #1 | Download this episode on iTunes and Google Play| Read the full overview at skiing.substack.com.Who: Mike Solimano, President and General Manager, Killington Resort and Pico MountainWhy I interviewed him: Because The Beast. Because October to June. Because sheer sprawl and size and moxie. Because we all need this place more than most of us will ever admit. Because if you’re going to start something like a podcast about Northeast skiing, you really ought to lead off with the most punch-you-in-your-face prominent part of Northeast skiing. Because have you ever stood at the K1 base on a mid-winter weekend Saturday and watched the hordes tumbling down from every direction and zigzagging and poling away toward Superstar and Snowdon and the lifts shooting off all over the place and the sheer forests and deadbolt double-blacks rising menacingly before you and wondered my God how do they hold this all together? This is the guy who holds it all together. What we talked about: The many many many recent mountain improvements at Killington, including snowmaking upgrades, the Snowdon bubble, South Ridge lift access, RFID gates, all those new tunnels; why you should be glad Powdr and not Vail owns Killington; that Vail offered to buy Killington; why the North Ridge lift is so baller even though it’s just a short fixed-grip lift stuck way at the top of the mountain; fat Americans; how cow poo powers your chairlift ride; the long-talked-about village cause man they need this; the Ikon Pass; adding Pico to the Ikon Pass; Vail of course because that will likely be mandatory in any skiing-related interview for the foreseeable future; how Powdr finally understood that Killington was not Park City; why you can call Killington “The Beast” to its face now; why beginners and intermediates needn’t fear said Beast; Woodward; the long season and why they do it even though they make more money during one day of Christmas week than in all of October and November (really!); why the Pico interconnect is probably a long way off still; the Beast 365 pass. Things that may be slightly outdated because we recorded this a while ago: We recorded this interview on Sept. 4, just after Labor Day. Mike says in the interview that he’s hoping to get snowmaking going “in 45 days,” but don’t panic because that’s 45 days from then and so that’s like any day now if we’re lucky (they actually already did an overnight test). He also announced a pretty significant snowmaking project that will allow Killington to pipe water over the interconnect to Pico for snowmaking, which should be a really big deal as far as coverage at the sister mountain this winter. That has since been announced and elaborated upon Vermont Biz and probably elsewhere. My hope in the future is to speed up the record-produce-publish timeline, but I spent all summer just bringing this thing online and that required a long lead time just to make sure I could actually find people who would talk to me.Question I wish I’d asked: Any chance of expanding the Ikon deal to include five/seven days at Killington and five/seven days at Pico, rather than a combined five/seven? Maybe something about the World Cup but I don’t really care about ski racing so maybe next time. What I got wrong: Referring to Powdr Corp’s Oregon ski area as “Mt. Hood” (which it isn’t), instead of “Mt. Bachelor,” which it is. I think this is because I was recently reading an article about the abundance of ski areas on Mt. Hood (six), and since I’d forgotten to make note of all of Powdr’s mountains pre-interview but wanted to bring it up I just thought “well, uh, that must be one of them,” which of course it isn’t, because those are most definitely two distinct volcanoes. But Mike was cool as ice and corrected me without correcting me, and now we all know the difference. I also insinuated in the intro that Killington would be open until June, but given that that’s only happened a handful of times in the past 20 years, I likely spoke too soon. What I should have said is that they will very likely try to stay open until June, and hopefully they can.Why I thought that now was a good time for this interview: If you haven’t been back to Killington in, say, the past five years, you need to go back as soon as possible (which is hopefully any day now). The momentum there is incredible. New lifts. New trail configurations. New lodges (coming). New focus on actually listening to all the people (the skiers) who make Killington The Beast in practice rather than in name only. The undercurrent here is an engaged management team (led by Mike), and a parent company that’s backing up the Brinks truck to help make it all happen. I read some interviews with Mike on New York Ski Blog and elsewhere and a profile of him in Vermont Business and I’m like man that guy sounds sharp as hell and he is. Listen to this guy talk for an hour and this whole wow-Killington-is-actually-really-fun-again thing will start to make a whole lot more sense.Why you should go there: Because The Beast is not just a marketing tag. Well, it is a marketing tag but it’s an earned one, and it wasn’t a TM marketing tag before it was a TM marketing tag (all explained in the interview), so… But yeah stepping out of your car there you know something’s different about Killington. The attitude and energy of the place, the speed and aggressiveness and raw skill of the skiers, the sheer unending mass and secret pockets and sense of adventure, the swarming flailing crowds and the way you can still find yourself all alone in the woods. If you had to pick one place to represent Northeast skiing in some kind of hypothetical United Nations of ski regions, you would probably pick Killington to do it. It is the id of Northeast skiing, big and brash and unforgiving and loud and relentless, and it says East Coast like no other place in the region. And let’s face it once May hits you really don’t have any other choice but to ski here unless you want to get on a plane. The Storm Skiing Podcast is on iTunes.
