Inside the $760M restoration of Notre Dame cathedral

Inside the $760M restoration of Notre Dame  cathedral The new rooster is added to the top of Notre Dame cathedral in Paris on December 16, as rebuilding continues after a catastrophic fire in 2019. While the spire is still currently encased in scaffolding, the 860-year-old building will reopen in 2024. As tourists and Parisian gathered outside the UNESCO-listed cathedral to admire the return of one of its most emblematic features — for now, still encased in scaffolding — the Notre Dame worksite remained in full swing. Nearly 500 craftspeople are busy with rebuilding efforts, working to ensure the Parisian landmark is ready for its grand reopening to the public less than a year from now. “It’s fascinating to see how something of such historical value is being restored,” said Stephan Book, a tourist visiting Paris from Sweden with his daughter and 80-year-old father. “And the ambition to do it all in five years,” he added, “It’s like when Kennedy said (humans) were going to the moon....

Udienza Generale del 3 gennaio 2024 - Catechesi. I vizi e le virtù. 2. Il Combattimento spirituale

Il testo qui di seguito include anche parti non lette che sono date ugualmente come pronunciate:   Catechesi. I vizi e le virtù. 2. Il Combattimento spirituale Cari fratelli e sorelle, buongiorno! La scorsa settimana ci siamo introdotti nel tema dei vizi e delle virtù. Esso richiama alla lotta spirituale del cristiano. Infatti, la vita spirituale del cristiano non è pacifica, lineare e priva di sfide; al contrario, la vita cristiana esige un continuo combattimento: il combattimento cristiano per conservare la fede, per arricchire i doni della fede in noi. Non a caso, la prima unzione che ogni cristiano riceve nel sacramento del Battesimo – l’unzione catecumenale – è senza alcun profumo e annuncia simbolicamente che la vita è una lotta. Infatti, nell’antichità, i lottatori, prima della gara, venivano completamente unti, sia per tonificare i muscoli, sia per rendere il corpo sfuggente alla presa dell’avversario. L’unzione dei catecumeni mette subito in chiaro che al cristiano ...

‘Fashion can change Africa’: the pioneering designers chasing a world of opportunity

Image
There’s no shortage of style and talent, but Africa will never realise its potential, say insiders, until it invests in its textile industry At a small fashion studio in Lagos, the designers and tailors are busy cutting clean lines through the swathes of fabric. “Cotton T-shirts were the first item we produced,” says designer Oroma Cookey-Gam, co-founder of This is Us, which makes contemporary Nigerian designs, from oversized shirts to jumpsuits and kaftans, using locally produced cotton. To source the cotton, Cookey-Gam makes a monthly trip to Funtua textile mill, a factory in Katsina in the north, which is one of the few mills fully operational in the country. She then makes the three-hour journey to the Kofar Mata dye pit in Kano, the oldest pit in Nigeria, where the cloth is hand-dyed for up to eight hours into shades of indigo.
