The secret formula of Coca-Cola is in a safe of a town in Valencia. The same one that claims its authorship

by

The history is written by the victors (Or that’s what we think). Perhaps the phrase would have to be changed to the story being written who has the best story and, in the commercial world, which knows how to sell its product better. And if there is a universal product that is the same image of globalization and proper name of one of the most powerful corporations in the worldthat’s the Coca-Cola. The story that John Stith Pemberton He is the father of the Coca-Cola and who, after some failed attempts, in 1886 found the formula of the drink Based on coca leaf, kola nut and carbonated water. It is not that it would bring him good luck, since shortly after he died in absolute poverty, taking a secret more powerful than that of his drink itself. The secret of whether he invented it or whether Coca-Cola is a plagiarism of a Spanish drink that was presented in the United States in 1985. Do not say Coca-Cola: Say Kola Coca In its origins, Coca-Cola was not a soda: it was a tonic. In fact, a “miraculous tonic” who cured headaches, relieved exhaustion and calmed his nerves, like Pemberton himself promoted. It was everything, also a “delicious, refreshing, cheerful, stimulating and vigorizing” drink. With cocaineIt wasn’t for less. It was not a success and its creator never saw the real potential of the drink. It was after selling his product to businessman Asa G. Gamdler when the brand exploded and The Coca-Cola Company became the giant that is today. But there are those who think that this position in history does not belong to Gandler or, above all, Pemberton: it belongs to the Valencian people of Malferit’s. In 1880, Bautista Apartici, Ricardo Sanz and Enrique Ortiz founded the Liquor Factory of Aielo. They began to create products and to present them at fairs in Europe. APARICI was the ‘commercial’ of the company and the person in charge of showing its products by the different countries, being the coca kola one of them. Kola nuts Your ingredients? Coca leaf, Kola nut and water. Very similar to those of the subsequent Coca-Cola. In 1885, Appear took the Kola Coca to a fair in Philadelphia, where he presented it and distributed some samples to local commercials. At present, that would be done with a product already patented so that no one can raise your idea, but it was not the practice more than a century ago. A year later, Pemberton presented in Atlanta its coca leaf formula, kola and water nut. Carbonated, where appropriate. Chance or plagiarism? Ayelo distillers itself leaves the question on its website. “In 1885, the Kola-Coca travels to the United States and, just a year later, the pharmacist John Steve Pemberton launched in the United States the famous Coca-Cola Answering the question is complicated, especially when we talk about an era in which the information was not transmitted with the same speed as now and it should be assumed that the connection between Pemberton and some of the commercials that received the cola coca sample. From Ayelo distilleries, they are clear. Juan Micó is the last owner of Ayelo distilleries and, as we read in ABC Newsconsiders that Coca-Cola was invented in Aielo. “At that time it was easy to copy a drink. The patents were only recorded if the product was successful,” he says, stating that when they patented the Kola Coca formula in Spain in 1903, the Coca-Cola already had a way won to become an icon. And Coca-Cola appeared Decades after patenting the drink, it was Coca-Cola who was interested in the one prepared in Aielo. The multinational wanted to enter Spain with a factory in the 40s, but could not do it directly due to the laws of registered trademarks because there was already a registered tail. That of Aielo. As we read in SpiegelCoca-Cola executives visited Malferit in 1953 and closed an agreement to acquire the rights of the name to Joaquín Juan Sanchis, who was the owner of the factory at that time. And, that same year, Coca-Cola began the conquest of the territory from its bottling company in Barcelona. There are no official records of the agreement, but there is talk of a sum between 30,000 and 50,000 pesetas to exploit the brand in Spain. A lot of money for the time, as Micó said, but a misery if compared to how things would have been, instead of money, they had accepted shares or a small percentage of sales. “We would be millionaires,” says Juan. And at that time of the firm it was when Distillerías Ayelo stopped preparing his ‘syrup’. At least the alcohol without alcohol, since that market belonged to Coca-Cola. The one they continued preparing was Kola coca nut With alcoholic content. 21st, specifically, and in Your description A “will” be or not be the origin of the Coca-Cola? “ Today, Micó’s family directs the business, and does so for a romantic issue, so as not to let that curious story die that will survive forever. The Valencian municipality is clear that Coca-Cola was invented there and, as we read in The countryIn 2018, Mayor José Luis Pinter commented that they had sent a letter to the multinational to use the link between Malferit and Coca-Cola’s year to take advantage of it. “Our goal is to see this project willingly, so that the people are known. We do not pursue anything else,” said the mayor of the town. Therefore, economic rights were not requested, but to take advantage of that link to underpin the story about the relationship between the municipality and the Coca-Cola. From the company they responded, but surely not the way in which the neighbors would have liked. They just said that the brand has transcended so much that “It is property of everyone” and that it is a pride that there are similar stories in different parts of the world.

We thought we had found a safe and sustainable alternative to oil derived. We have to keep looking

by

Many years ago, long before “Do you want a bag?” and The new European plugsI got a small summer job distributing potato starch bags by Media Granada. The world had begun to account for the huge problem of plastic bags and prepared to The day later. In that sense, the potato starch was an extraordinary thing. First, because it was ridiculous, extravagant and left everyone out of play (a bag of what?); But above all because starch -based bioplastic seemed like a much more sustainable and renewable material. The issue is that we begin to discover that they have problems. What is a starch -based bioplastic …? Because, although potato bags will always be in our hearts, the true revolution of this family of products occurred when They reached the world of the container for food, disposable utensils, films to cover or even single -use medical products. … And why are they a problem? A newly published study in it Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry He has just shown how “animals that consume particles of this alternative material develop health problems such as liver damage and imbalances in intestinal microbioma.” That is, by Use the exact words of the authors of this study“Biodegradable plastics based on starch may not be as safe or beneficial for health as originally supposed.” Eat plastic. The researchers They compared three groups of five mice: a group (control) consumed normal feed; The other two groups that consumed foods with particles derived from the ‘biodegradation’ of starch -based microplastics. There are two because each one had a dose (low and high) calculated and climbing from the planned daily consumption for a normal human being. They monitored them, studied them and there the problems began. What did they find? In the mice that consumed high doses of bioplastics They presented Damaged organs (including liver and ovaries), problems when handling glucose and even deregulated genetic pathways. “Prolonged exposure to low dose of starch -based microplastics can cause a broad spectrum of health impacts, in particular the alteration of circadian rhythms and the alteration of glucose metabolism and lipids,” explained in the American Society of Chemistry Yongfeng Dengmain author of the study. Should we worry? Well yes and no. Obviously, the results of the investigation are peliagudos, but not alarming in excess. Actually, if confirmed, the results are very similar to those of conventional plastics. In addition, the study is small and the investigation is in a very initial phase. To put it in a summary way: we still do not know how much there are in these results. There is much to work, investigate and regulate. And, deep down, the most interesting thing about this work is not its provisional results. It is the need not to give anything for granted and take care of the movements that we are doing in the development of new materials. It is, in short, a reminder that everything remains to be done.

No one is safe from tariffs. Not even one of the most powerful and necessary companies for the US: ASML

by

ASML occupies a privileged position. This company of the Netherlands is the only company on the planet capable of producing equipment of extreme ultraviolet photolithography (UVE) that are necessary to manufacture avant -garde chips. In fact, these are the machines that use TSMC, Intel, Samsung, SK Hynix and Micron Technology to create Your most advanced integrated circuits. It is currently not exaggerated to affirm that a very important part of the semiconductor industry is supported About Asml’s shoulders. And, despite its indisputable relevance, it is not immune to tariffs. Or, at least, to the uncertainty that has triggered the government’s tariff strategy led by Donald Trump. In fact, According to Reutersthe investors of this Dutch company are very concerned about the impact that US taxes will have on the company’s economic performance. The next tariffs on chips have plunged Asml in uncertainty The US administration has excluded manufacturers of lithography equipment from the base tariff of 10% announced just a few days ago. However, ASML, Tokyo Electron, Canon and other companies that produce these machines have reason to be expectant. And worried. A little over 24 hours ago Donald Trump confirmed that during the next few days will announce the tariff rate with which it will finally tax the imported integrated circuits. He also anticipated that some companies in the semiconductor industry will have some flexibility, although he did not specify either what will be those organizations or to what extent they can continue to import integrated circuits avoiding tariffs. The problem is that with these statements has plunged the entire semiconductor industry in uncertainty. This is the problem facing ASML and the other machine manufacturers to produce integrated circuits. If the US government finally decides to impose tariffs on the importation of lithography equipment manufactured abroad, the semiconductor sector will suffer If the US government finally decides to impose tariffs on the importation of lithography equipment manufactured abroad, the semiconductor sector will suffer. ASML is in a more comfortable position than other chips processing equipment manufacturers because, as I mentioned in the first lines of this article, it is the only company that produces UVE lithography machines. And not having competition in this segment helps. In addition, Intel and TSMC are equipping, or, at least, they plan to do it in the short or medium term, Its new plants of manufacture of semiconductors in the US. And it is impossible to start them Without ASML machines. However, the panorama is gloomy even if the US administration decided to exclude tariffs definitively to the manufacturers of lithography equipment, which is something that can happen. If this last scenario was given, but the US government decides to impose tariffs on imported chips, which right now seems most likely, the business of some of the best ASML customers, such as TSMC, Samsung or SK Hynix, presumably will resent to a greater or lesser extent. And, consequently, it is reasonable to assume that ASML’s economic performance will degrade. This is what worries your investors. TSMC and Samsung They already have factories in the USand SK Hynix is ​​building a plant in West Lafayette (Indiana), but in the short term they will hardly be able to meet the needs of the US market Only with your US plants. We will see what happens finally, but whatever happens is evident that uncertainty is already hurting even an industry as robust as that of integrated circuits.

The controversy of the Safe Transfer

by

The heavy rains of the month of March They have increased Reservoir levels. This news could be good news, but this relief It has not resolved Territorial conflicts around water. The controversy of the Tajo-Segura transfer returns again. A recurring conflict. Since its inauguration 46 years ago, the transfer has allowed water supply In the area of ​​Southeast Spanishknown for your water shortage. However, climate change and growing demand They have generated Tensions between the receiving regions and the Tagus basin, which defends the need to conserve their own resources. By regulations. The reservations in the reservoirs of the header of the Tagus, Entrepeñas and Buendía They have risen to level 1. so, According to the lawthis allows an automatic 60 Hm3 transfer to the Spanish southeast, benefiting Alicante, Murcia and Almería. According to Valencia Plaza has advancedEntrepeñas and Buendía reservoirs have accumulated 1,395 hm3, confirming level 1 and authorizes the maximum possible transfer according to current regulations. But there will be some changes … However, the minister for ecological transition and demographic challenge, Sara Aagesen, has announced imminent changes in the operating rules of the transfer. Although it has not specified the details, the concern in the Levante is evident: they fear that these modifications will return access to water again, According to the Spanish. And return to the controversy. Again, the irrigators of Alicante, Murcia and Almería have expressed their concern about the possibility that changes in the exploitation rules reduce the transfer even though the reservoirs have reached level 1, According to Valencia Plaza. In addition, Lucas Jiménez, president of the Central Irgent Union of the Tajo-Segura Aqueduct (SCRATs), has criticized in the same medium that, just when the maximum possible transfer is confirmed, the government wants to make modifications that could restrict the supply of water to the southeast. The other face. From Castilla-La Mancha, the reaction is different. According to a study to which Spanish has had accessThe Chair of the Tajo of the University of Castilla-La Mancha has stressed that, although the reservoirs have reached level 1, it is essential to ensure sustainability of water resources for local communities before transferring water to other regions. Likewise, the Minister of Sustainable Development, Mercedes Gómez, has insisted that the reservoirs of Entrepeñas and Buendía should not be maintained in a situation of “exceptionality”, as established by the current regulations of the Tajo-Segura transfer, but must go to a situation of “normality”, As explained the truth. In addition, the Manchega counselor has reiterated, that the exploitation rules of the transfer must be focused, mainly, supplying people with water, and not so much to industrial or agricultural development. In this sense, it has stressed that infrastructure has already been built in the receiving areas, Like desalinationwhich are available and have been financed by all Spanish citizens. Forecasts. The future of the transfer remains uncertain. Although current regulations allow 60 HM3 sending in April, the possible modification of the rules could alter water management in the medium term. In addition, tensions between different regions show that the problem of water distribution in Spain is still unresolved. The debate on sustainable water management and adaptation to the effects of climate change will continue to mark water policy in the coming months.

There are 60 countries that have signed an agreement for an “open”, “inclusive” and “safe.” And two that not: USA and United Kingdom

by

The event Artificial Intelligence Action Summitthe European Summit on the AI ​​that is being held these days in Paris, is leaving many headlines. We have already told how Europe has announced an investment of 150,000 million euros In AI for the next five years, but now we find another important event. And worrying. For an ethical and open. During this congress, participating countries have been urged to sign an international agreement on artificial intelligence. As indicated In the BBCthe statement advocates an “open”, “inclusive” and “ethical” approach to the development of artificial technology. The US and the United Kingdom want to go on their own in AI. Although 61 countries have signed this statement – among them France, India, Japan, Canada and even China – neither US nor the United Kingdom wanted to sign it. Their reasons have been different, but they point to the same thing: they prefer to go on their own. What has the United Kingdom said. The United Reius government has revealed that “it has not been able to agree with all the parties of the declaration”, and that “it would only sign initiatives that agree with the national interests of the United Kingdom.” Even so, spokesmen of the United Kingdom have indicated that France “remains one of our closest partners in all areas of AI.” And what has said USA. Meanwhile, US vice president JD Vance (in the image), indicated that regulating AI “could kill a transformative industry just when he is taking off.” For him this segment is one that the Trump administration “will not miss”, and said that “the growth of the growth of AI” should be prioritized “above security. Europe is “strangling” the AI. The American president was hard with the European Union, indicating that regulation should strengthen and boost the development of AI, “instead of strangling it.” His advice is that Europe contemplates “this new border with optimism, instead of restlessness.” Macron advocates regulation. Meanwhile, the French president, Emmanuel Macron, defended the need to expand regulation. “We need these rules for AI advance to,” he explained. “It is not a matter of resistance, it is not a matter of preventing innovation, it is a matter of allowing (innovation) to occur internationally while avoiding fragmentation.” But fragmentation seems inevitable. The agreement seemed a good statement of principles to try to seek consensus when avoiding major evils caused by AI, but the differences in regulation are evident since it began to talk about the subject. The United States has always had an approach that prioritized safety growth and development, something similar to what China has done (but with Open Source models). Meanwhile, in Europe the regulation has been central issue although despite this there have been important advances by private companies such as Mistral in France or Freepik in Spain.

This safe box office is based on an editorial phenomenon that has sold four million books

by

The roller of the premieres dedicated to the child public does not stop. After the inevitable avalanche of Christmas productions that have given us successes such as’WICKED‘,’Sonic 3‘ either ‘MUFASA‘, It comes almost without giving time to take a breath’ Polyán ‘, the story of a half human police half a dog. Land under the seal of DreamWorks Animation, signers of franchises such as ‘Shrek’, ‘Kung fu panda’ or ‘Trolls’. But this is not a more animation movie. Box office expectations. The first advances of What can be the loss of ‘Polyán‘They maintain expectations under control, because it is clear that the next most or less clear success for the coming weeks is Captain America’s new film, in mid -February. The forecasts point to an amount between 20 and 27 million dollars, which would leave the film in a very good position to recover its modest 40 million dollars of budget, and above all, they align it with ‘Captain underpants: its first movie’ , which raised a similar amount in 2017 in its first weekend and ended up pushing more than 125 million worldwide. POLICAN: ORIGINS. The mention of Captain Folders is not accidental. If at some point you have underestimated this franchise for considering it second next to the giants of child entertainment, think twice: created by Dav Pilkey, the original series of enlightened novels of Captain Colden It has sold 80 million copies worldwide. He has generated the aforementioned film and a Netflix series, but has been stopping since 2016. Reason? Policy took over. A hairy spin-off. At the moment, the success of ‘Policán’ has led him to generate more books than the mother series: he has 13 volumes, the last of this year. Everyone tells in comic format the story of this character that is born as a comic that reads the characters of ‘Captain underpants’. And in fact, success has been such that it has given light, in turn, to its own spin-off, ‘the Chikigato Comic Club’, which already has five volumes. May children sing. If something demonstrates ‘Polyán’ (although, an extra ball nothing negligible, it also seems funny) is the potential of family products, which continue to take the lists of the highest grossing of the year. We talked a few days ago How ‘Bluey’ is the most watched program in streaming of 2024, above series and much more publicized films. ‘Policán’ is a less known product, but it can still boast millions of books sold and a faithful audience that will see it in the cinema, and then repeatedly in streaming. There is nothing strange that films like this continue to produce. The strange thing is that we do not see one of these every week.

The administration of Donald Trump It is closing the migration processing offices in Latin America that the Biden administration established for give migrants the possibility of legally immigrating, According to internal government documents Obtained by CBS News. The internal documents of the State Department Obtained by CBS News, they indicate that the Trump administration is ceasing operations in those places, known as offices of the “Safe Mobility Initiative” and that They were established in established in Colombia, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Guatemalaas part of a “broader effort to evaluate how the United States manages migratory processes to serve US national interests.” The offices allowed certain migrants who lived in those countries or passed through them to request to apply to programs that allowed them to legally enter the United States. The documents also cite the executive order of President Trump that suspended the United States refugee admission programwhich allows some people fleeing war and persecution abroad to reach the United States after interviews of interviews and security exams and doctors. Safe mobility offices were physical regional centers for the US to determine If migrants qualified to legally enter the countrywhether under the refugee program, family visas, work visas or an immigration benefit known as humanitarian probation.
