Lago di Orta, in the region of Piedmont

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia

Lago di Orta, in the region of Piedmont, Italy, is nestled in the hills just east of Lake Maggiore. It’s only a thirty minute drive from Milan and Lake Maggiore, but without the hustle and bustle or glitz of Maggiore and another well known lake, Como. In fact not many people have heard of Lago di Orta, not even the Italians, though they comprise the majority of tourists there. I think they must want to keep it for themselves.

The town of Orta San Guilio on the east side of the lake is one of the most romantic places I’ve ever been. The buildings are all brilliant terracotta colors with tile rooftops and painted shutters, tumbling down the hillside toward the lake. It’s a pedestrian-only town, with one narrow alley-like street and few little side alleys that beckon you to explore them.

Towering above Orta San Guilio is Sacro Monte (spiritual mountain), a place of pilgrimage dedicated to Saint Francis of Assisi. There are twenty chapels illustrating the life of St.Francis along a clearly marked path with picnic and rest areas along the way.[…] You also have a spectacular view of the lake from the mountain.

Then there’s Isola San Guilio, a tiny gem of an island. In the ninth century the Bishop of Navaro built a basilica there which dominates the landscape. There’s also Benedictine monastery built in the 1900s. It seems that even the island is a place for the religious and spiritual seeker, although you could simply enjoy the scenery and the architecture. From Piazza Motto the main square in Orta San Guilio, you can take a ferry over to the island. […]

Santoni, Le Marche, the Shoes | Clever Clogs

See on Scoop.it - Good Things From Italy - Le Cose Buone d’Italia

I am a shoe snob. The majority of my footwear is made by Eric Cook, a genius by whom I have had the privilege of being shod for the last 20 or so years, but I had met Giuseppe Santoni a few times and he had impressed me with his attention to detail and the stylish masculinity of his shoes and accessories. So I was delighted to make the trek to the Marche on the Adriatic coast of Italy to visit the Santoni shoe factory.

The Marche is one of the areas that boomed after the Second World War, becoming the shoemaking heartland of Italy, attracting workers from the land, among them a 14-year-old Andrea Santoni who rose quickly to be a factory foreman. By 1975 he was in his mid thirties and, with 20 years’ experience in the business, he decided that he wanted to do things differently.

In the Seventies, the Marche bragging rights between factory bosses were secured by claiming the highest annual production figures, a statement of modernity as opposed to the old slow artisanal ways. But Giuseppe’s father saw a third way, one that was built around quality rather than quantity yet took advantage of the best of both the old and the modern methods. He started his own factory in the garage of his house with five workers.

The best Santoni shoes are about as close as it is possible for a factory-made shoe to get to being entirely bespoke: hand-sewn soles, precious skins, prismatic colour choice, the lot. But as well as this elite section of production there is a full range of men’s shoes from stout Goodyear-constructed lace-ups, through feathery silken slippers and driving shoes made for Mercedes AMG to highly superior sneakers. To bring high-quality traditional shoemaking techniques into the manufacture of sports shoes is eccentric to the point of being slightly insane, but that is the point of Santoni - a level of quality and innovation that exceeds expectations. Quality control is impressive. […]

Applausi, abbracci e lacrime alle 4 di mattina «Rotazione conclusa», Concordia raddrizzata

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws

La nave appoggiata sulle piattaforme dopo 19 ore. Applausi e lacrime all’annuncio. Le sirene delle navi suonano a festa

«L’operazione di rotazione si è conclusa». L’annuncio di Franco Gabrielli, capo della Protezione civile, arriva alle 4 del mattino. L’impresa che pareva impossibile, seguita in tutto il mondo con l’attenzione che merita un evento senza precedenti, si è conclusa. «È fatta - ha detto Gabrielli - la Concordia ormai è allineata». Applausi, abbracci, scene di gioia tra i tantissimi che hanno seguito da vicino il lavoro dei tecnici, degli ingegneri, degli uomini della Protezione civile che da lunedì mattina hanno risollevato la Costa Concordia e, insieme, anche l’immagine di un Paese che era naufragata insieme alla nave sugli scogli del Giglio. Qualcuno si è commosso fino alle lacrime, come il sindaco dell’isola, mentre nel porto e a largo suonavano in segno di festa le sirene delle navi.

AnsaldoBreda komt Fyra's niet ophalen

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws

AnsaldoBreda komt de reeds geleverde Fyra’s niet in Nederland ophalen, zoals de NS heeft geëist. Dit heeft topman Maurizio Manfellotto van het Italiaanse bedrijf maandag gezegd tegen het ANP.

Volgens de NS staan de Fyra’s in de weg op het opstel- en werkterrein van het spoorbedrijf in de Watergraafsmeer. Volgens Manfellotto kan daar geen sprake van zijn: de treinen staan in een hangar die speciaal voor de Fyra is gebouwd.

AnsaldoBreda heeft de Fyra verbeterd en de aangepaste versie maandag in de Toscaanse stad Pistoia gepresenteerd. Volgens Manfellotto kan die zo gaan rijden op het Nederlandse en Belgische spoor. De NS heeft echter naar eigen zeggen al aangegeven die trein niet te willen. Manfellotto bevestigd dat over de kwestie is gesproken met de NS. Hij kan hier echter niet nader op ingaan omdat ‘de Nederlanders mij een ‘confidentiality agreement’ hebben laten tekenen’.

Costa Concordia weer overeind

See on Scoop.it - La Gazzetta Di Lella - News From Italy - Italiaans Nieuws



Het cruiseschip Costa Concordia is overeind getrokken. Dat hebben de Italiaanse autoriteiten laten weten. De operatie begon gisterochtend om 09.00 uur en duurde ongeveer negentien uur.Bergers hebben het schip met behulp van kabels en kranen tot 25 graden opgelicht. Daarna deed de zwaartekracht zijn werk en konden de ingenieurs overgaan op het vullen van de drijvers die aan het al opgelichte stuk waren vastgezet.In eerste instantie dachten de bergers het cruiseschip binnen tien uur weer overeind te hebben, maar de operatie liep vertraging op door slecht weer. Bovendien bewoog de Costa Concordia de eerste drie uur niet mee. Ook een aantal kabels brak. Toen die waren hersteld, kon het schip langzaam overeind worden gezet. Gestabiliseerd In januari 2012 liep het cruiseschip op de rotsen toen het te dicht bij het eiland Giglio voer, voor de kust van Toscane. Daarna kapseisde het schip. Bij de ramp kwamen 32 mensen om het leven. Twee slachtoffers zijn nooit gevonden. Mogelijk liggen hun lichamen nog in het wrak.De komende maanden wordt het rechtgetrokken schip gestabiliseerd. Daarna kan het worden weggevoerd, om uiteindelijk te worden gesloopt.
