Monitoring the roof raising (July 13)


Construction workers monitor the Metrodome roof as it is inflated during a test inflation of the repaired Teflon ceiling, with completion of the repair project just a few weeks away, in Minneapolis, Minn., Wednesday , July 13, 2011. The domed stadium collapsed under the weight of snow during a heavy storm last December, forcing the Vikings to play their final two home games elsewhere. The work began in March and is set to be finished by early next month, in time for the Vikings to start their 2011 schedule. (AP Photo/Star Tribune, Elizabeth Flores)
