Madrid has historically obtained its water from mountains through underground canals, wells, and the Manzanares River since medieval times. In the 19th century, dams like the Pontón de la Oliva Dam began to be built to supply water. The El Canal de Isabel II, Madrid's most important canal, was constructed starting in 1851 and is over 70 meters long. It now supplies water to Madrid from local aquifers during dry periods. Historically, there were public fountains and water carriers delivered water to homes, while washing places along the Manzanares River and public baths provided hygiene facilities before modern plumbing. Access to safe, clean water remains an issue today for some.

Invention is the most important product of human creativity according to Nikola Tesla. The ultimate goal of invention is for humans to gain complete control over the physical world by using their minds. This mastery would allow humanity to apply their nature and abilities to fulfilling their needs.The garden city
The document discusses Arturo Soria's 19th century proposal for a "linear city" model in Madrid intended to address problems of overpopulation, transport, and sanitation. Soria's design integrated nature into the city with rows of trees and houses having gardens. It included wider streets, detached houses, and green spaces. The linear city was surrounded by nature with a central area for services. While the project began construction, economic difficulties and rising land costs prevented its full realization, though some elements like a main street remain today in northern Madrid.

The document discusses the urbanization of water supply systems in Barcelona and Madrid from the 19th century to present. It analyzes how each city mobilized water resources to support urban growth and how systems transitioned from private to public to private involvement over time. Key differences emerged such as Barcelona emphasizing scarcity while Madrid pursued abundance. Both cities now rely on large multinational water companies and have diversified into other environmental services.

Water and Culture in Al_Andalus
Muslims had an important relationship with water in Al-Andalus. They integrated hydraulic techniques from Romans and other cultures to manage and distribute water according to Islamic norms. Water was also precious in Islamic imagination as a part of paradise. When Muslims arrived in Iberia, they reactivated urban life and built new cities, mosques, baths and economic activities requiring water supplies. Their water treatment involved specialized guilds regulating ditches within cities according to urban structures. In Granada, the Nasrid sultan constructed a prodigious hydraulic system at the Alhambra diverting water from the Darro River through canals and reservoirs to supply the Alhambra, Generalife, Medina and more.

Seville’s floods (Vicente González)
The document summarizes the history of flooding in Seville, Spain. It describes how Seville was founded on flood-prone land along the Guadalquivir River. Major floods in the 1940s prompted a project to reroute and channelize the river to prevent flooding, including constructing levees, closing meanders, and building a dock. This successfully protected the city from floods for decades. However, problems with this modification include increased salinity and lack of flow to the sea. Future plans aim to restore more natural flows and reconnect the city to the river.
Pumping windmills in Mallorca
The document discusses the history of windmills used for pumping water in Mallorca. It describes how different types of windmills were introduced over the 19th and 20th centuries to drain wetlands and enable irrigation-based agriculture.

Windmills
The document discusses the history of windmills used for pumping water in Mallorca. It describes how different types of windmills were introduced over centuries to drain wetlands for agriculture and combat mosquitoes. By the mid-19th century, water pumping windmills became widespread across the island, enabling rich irrigated agriculture and dairy farming. However, overexploitation of aquifers from replacing mills with engines in the 1960s led to salinization of the water supply and abandonment of the countryside.

In 1895, the first train arrived in Iznalloz, requiring a tunnel to be dug through the
Rome water supply
The Romans built extensive aqueduct systems to transport water from distant sources into cities and towns, using gravity to move the water through stone or concrete conduits. Aqueducts supplied public baths, latrines, fountains and private homes. Underground cisterns stored water from aqueducts for use in baths, fountains and other structures. Cities like Rome had hundreds of kilometers of aqueducts to provide water. Baths were important social centers with hot, warm and cold pools, and sometimes exercise areas.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Why You Should Replace Windows 11 with Nitrux Linux 3.5.0 for enhanced perfor...
The choice of an operating system plays a pivotal role in shaping our computing experience. For decades, Microsoft's Windows has dominated the market, offering a familiar and widely adopted platform for personal and professional use. However, as technological advancements continue to push the boundaries of innovation, alternative operating systems have emerged, challenging the status quo and offering users a fresh perspective on computing.
One such alternative that has garnered significant attention and acclaim is Nitrux Linux 3.5.0, a sleek, powerful, and user-friendly Linux distribution that promises to redefine the way we interact with our devices. With its focus on performance, security, and customization, Nitrux Linux presents a compelling case for those seeking to break free from the constraints of proprietary software and embrace the freedom and flexibility of open-source computing.

Rapid and secure feature delivery is a goal across every application team and every branch of the DoD. The Navy’s DevSecOps platform, Party Barge, has achieved:
- Reduction in onboarding time from 5 weeks to 1 day
- Improved developer experience and productivity through actionable findings and reduction of false positives
- Maintenance of superior security standards and inherent policy enforcement with Authorization to Operate (ATO)
Development teams can ship efficiently and ensure applications are cyber ready for Navy Authorizing Officials (AOs). In this webinar, Sigma Defense and Anchore will give attendees a look behind the scenes and demo secure pipeline automation and security artifacts that speed up application ATO and time to production.
We will cover:
- How to remove silos in DevSecOps
- How to build efficient development pipeline roles and component templates
- How to deliver security artifacts that matter for ATO’s (SBOMs, vulnerability reports, and policy evidence)
- How to streamline operations with automated policy checks on container images
