Della sua tresca, Cavour non faceva misteri con nessuno. Ne parlava spregiudicatamente non solo con gli amici del Circolo del whist, ma anche col padre, il quale lo esortava a prenderla come un piacevole passatempo, ma senza impegnarcisi troppo, visto che Nina aveva figli e tre anni più di lui. Camillo seguiva i suggerimenti anche perché in quel momento aveva un’altra relazione con la marchesa di Castelletto, della cui concorrenza aveva informato Nina. Ma costei non poteva molto protestare perché anch’essa aveva a Milano un altro amante, di cui Cavour era a sua volta al corrente e, non sapendo come districarsi tra i due, chiedeva consigli al marito, che con un disinteresse pari soltanto al cinismo, gli dava quello di tenerseli entrambi con una ben dosata distribuzione di orari e di entusiasmi.

Comunque il fatto che abbiano fatto vedere Cavour e Grinzane Cavour come cartoline... un applauso Sarà andata tipo così, dopo aver messo lo speciale sul sito della RAI e cercato su Google: "oh guarda questi due comuni si chiamano Cavour" "dai mettiamoli tutti e due"

Peccato non si siano accorti del Canale che attraversa tipo mezzo Piemonte a sto punto

I politici e gli statisti. C'era una volta Cavour - di Guido Puccio

Ecco un prezioso lavoro di Giuliano Amato (“C’era una volta Cavour, il Mulino 2023) che ricerca ed evidenzia nei discorsi parlamentari di Camillo Benso di Cavour i contenuti della grande politica, “un’arte essenziale da eseguire con passione”. Costruire una maggioranza parlamentare, abbandonando le posizioni più retrive della destra storica conservatrice e accogliendo quanto di valido e possibile…

The Apres Ski boots from Ludwig Reiter: A Review

Packing for a winter trip to Sweden 🇸🇪

Headed out to a log cabin, temperature varies from below freezing to +7 C.

Lots of chunky knitwear, from William Lockie, Cavour, Zanone for the colder days, flannel shirts for the milder ones.

Pants-wise I’m bringing two pairs of jeans, a light and a darker wash, both from Berg&Berg. Also a pair of corduroy 5 pockets by Drake’s.

Then for lounging about, tees and sweatshirt from Asket, and lounge pants from Uniqlo and Lululemon. The Uniqlo pants also work great as sleepwear.

As for shoes, a pair of Crockett&Jones Coniston boots should serve all outerwear purposes, from short walks into town to longer treks with our dog. For the drive there I’ll wear sneakers though, Reebok club85 to be precise. Not a big sneakerhead, and these go with everything.

Russian Dreadnoughts: Novorossiysk, Part II

"On the evening of October 28, 1955, Novorossiysk dropped anchor in Sevastopol. Following dinner, some 240 crewmen departed for shore, her captain and numerous senior officers included. Additional trainees and civilian workers came aboard, to prepare for the next cruise. All seemed normal. But, at 01:30 in the morning on the 29th, an explosion ripped through the water beneath the ship, blowing a hole directly up through the bow forward of Turret I. Sailors reported two distinct, back-to-back detonations from under the water's surface. The result was a tunnel of force that tore through every deck and vented out through the topside of the ship, bending the entire bow upwards and tearing a 68' long by 12' wide gash. Between 150-175 men were instantly killed.

The ship began to settle immediately. A slight list developed to starboard while the city and harbor came alive with emergency response efforts. Tugs began pushing the wounded ship towards shore, swinging her about by the stern. Other ships sent boats as well. But the situation seemed well in hand at first. Pumping oil to port had helped to correct the list by 02:00, and the ship was in marginally more shallow water. Evacuation was not ordered, and the majority of the roughly 1,600 men aboard were left to mill about on the main deck. The list continued to increase, though it was assumed the ship would settle upright due to the shallow water. This proved to be false; the list increased more and more rapidly until, at 04:14, the ship passed 18°, lost stability, and capsized into the soft mud of the harbor bottom. She had taken on 7,000 tons of water in the 2 hours and 43 minutes since the initial damage occurred. Devoid of reserve stability and overloaded by her 1953 refit, she took an estimated 621 men with her, including rescuers stuck aboard when the rolled over. The ship floated upside down until 22:00 that evening, allowing for the rescue of seven men from a hole cut in the stern. Rescue divers continued to work for another two days, pulling two men from an air bubble in the stern. No more knocking was heard past November 1.

The disaster continues to confound. An immediate Soviet official inquiry determined that an old German sea mine had exploded as a result of the ship's magnetic field. This theory remains the official cause, supported by an immediate dredging effort that turned up additional German mines from the area. However, a variety of factors have prompted questions: the presence of multiple explosions, the ability of a mine to produce such a directed blast, the irregular timing interval between mooring and explosion, and damage that is inconsistent with other mine-damaged large ships. In addition, a missing barge and some suspiciously clean metal debris found in the two shallow craters in the harbor floor sparked serious discussion of sabotage.

Though rather incredulous claims of Italian retribution including the admissions of aging ex combat divers within the past decade - have been mostly dismissed, there remains sufficient question about the cause of the disaster to leave the matter in dispute. Perhaps most relevant is the dismissal of the navy's commander-in-chief, at that point sick for five months, due to falling out of political favor. Nevertheless, since naval history is rife with situations of extreme misfortune based on miraculously slim odds, it also remains possible that mines were the cause.

Novorossiysk herself was salvaged using compressed air. Preparatory work for the salvage operation began in April 1956, and took over a year. On the morning of May 4, 1957, twenty-four compressors worked for four hours to push the sea out of the wreck and the ship finally broke the surface bow first; she is seen here in roughly that state, with the gaping damage to the bow clearly visible. After the installation of a pre-fabricated salvage facility on top of the wreck, she was towed out to Cossack Bay on 28 May. She was cut open to rid her magazines of their explosive contents, and then cut up for scrap, though there is some dispute about the details. X turret, which fell out during the refloating, was salvaged separately. Its guns were retained at the Naval School until the 1970s, when they were cut up as well."
