Pope Francis on Saturday received in audience Cardinal Marcello Semeraro
the Prefect of the Congregation for the Causes of Saints
who presented for his approval the causes of several candidates on the way to sainthood
The Holy Father authorized the Congregation to promulgate a decree on the miracle attributed to an Italian laywoman
One of the seven decrees on heroic virtues concerns an English priest.
A decree approved a miracle attributed to the intercession of an Italian laywoman
the Venerable Servant of God Armida Barelli
While studying at a boarding school under the Franciscan Sisters of the Holy Cross from 1895 to 1900
she discovered her religious vocation and the Franciscan charism
she co-founded the Secular Institute of the Missionaries of the Kingship of Christ
which today has more than 2,200 members in more than 30 countries around the world.
The miracle attributed to her intercession clears her for beatification
a ceremony that will confer on her the title "Blessed". Another miracle is required to clear her for canonization or sainthood.
Among the candidates whose heroic virtues Pope Francis approved on Saturday is Servant of God Ignatius of Saint Paul
He was born George Spencer on 21 December 1799 in London
a son of the 2nd Earl Spencer.
He converted from Anglicanism to Catholicism in 1830 in Rome and was ordained to the priesthood in 1832
On the death in 1849 of Blessed Dominic Barberi
Father Ignatius became Provincial of the Passionist Congregation in England and Belgium
Father Ignatius spent much of his life working for the conversion of England to the Catholic faith
and was buried alongside his predecessor Father Barberi
Father Ignatius of Saint Paul will now have the title Venerable.
The heroic virtues of the following were also recognized by the Pope on Saturday:
- Servant of God Albino Alves da Cunha Silva
born on 22 September 1882 in Codeçôso
- Servant of God Maria Felicita Fortunata Baseggio (nee Anna Clara Giovanna)
- Servant of God Floralba Rondi (nee Luigia Rosina)
a professed member of the Congregation of the Poverelle Sisters
She was born on 10 December 1924 in Pedrengo
- Servant of God Clarangela Ghilardi (nee Alessandra)
a member of the Congregation of the Poverelle Sisters
Born on 21 April 1931 in Trescore Balneario
- Servant of God Dinarosa Belleri (nee Teresa Santa)
Born on 11 November 1936 in Cailina di Villa Carcina

each room has its own sparkling object and each object is made in collaboration with great design names
presented as part of salone del mobile, 2018 marks the passage of a larger scale for the ghidini 1961
from tableware and accessories to living spaces
new pieces are characterized by the combination of brass and fabric presented and defined by a great formal freedom
a reference for the processing of brass at large
each piece expresses its vocation. among them estudio campana presents the STICKS collection
one for a candle and the other for a flower
both inspired by natural form; andrea branzi’s vase-basket
a three-piece series in polished references sacred rituals of the ancient tribal tradition; and intricately weaved steel rods form tomek rygalik’s family of tables.
ghidini1961 specializes in die casting brass
combining advanced technologies with a passion for fine craftsmanship
applying their expertise to a range of products
ghidini bosco has been working with the best designers
architects and industry professionals to manufacture classic and contemporary pieces
with all aspects of production taking place in-house at villa carcina
it has become known for its particular attention to detail throughout the entire production process — from concept phase to realization
AXOR presents three bathroom concepts that are not merely places of function
but destinations in themselves — sanctuaries of style
these images from Technostudio Engineering are just CAD renderings of what someday might come to life as a real pistol
they are quite beautiful and evoke thoughts of Bond villains or intergalactic battles between good (obviously humans) and evil (squid-faced aliens)
Currently there are two Technostudio pistol designs: a traditional index finger trigger activation model and a thumb actuated trigger model
Both versions feature a low bore axis for a more stable shooting platform
details are slim in this phase of development
and my mastery of the Italian language and as well as polymer handgun design are even less
But I’m looking forward to seeing where this project from Technostudio Engineering lands
Email contact information for a company representative can be found at the bottom of the page
Tecnostudio engineering is a Villa Carcina (Bs) specialized for decades in the design and manufacture of weapons
He worked on the development of many important projects for leading companies in the sector
an innovative polymer semiautomatic pistol that in addition to the classic drum configuration with a conventional trigger
optionally has an innovative keg (patented) … does not trigger
only that is controlled by the thumb instead of the index
The difference is substantial: with a drum of this kind
there are four fingers engaged in control of the weapon and
the detection is much more effectively countered
This feature has been confirmed thanks to movies with high-speed cameras last generation
the company has also developed a tactical module for turning the gun rifle
in recent years was another Italian to grapple with a shutter system controlled by the thumb
for rifles and carbines: Pieri was called but
the system was never experimented with a semiautomatic pistol
the distance between the last finger in the pistol grip and the longitudinal axis of the barrel of the today produced guns
with the aim of minimize it to make the gun much more stable
in which this aiming distance is reduced to the minimum value that the mechanical makes it possible
since the power take-off distance is no longer based on the middle finger as last finger available in the handle
All makes the New Edge gun surprisingly stable during firing
totally avoids harmful side rotation of the gun axis and it entails a zero detention
We also carried out a series of test in accordance with the standard of shots concentration at a distance of 82 feet
comparing our prototype with a Glock 17 and a Beretta Px 4
has shown that the G17 has fired 10 shots over a 12 x 4 inches area placed 16 inches from the established centre
the Beretta Px 4 hit an equal area placed 14 inches from the centre
while our New Edge prototype hit the centre in a 2 inches diameter area
we have also created a more “traditional” gun
because it also keeps the aiming distance extremely low
