Italy: Torrential Rains Turn Alcamo Streets Into Rivers

A violent storm struck Alcamo, in the Trapani area, on Wednesday night, September 10, dropping about 35 mm of rain in just a few hours. The sudden downpour overwhelmed the drainage system and turned streets into raging rivers. Floodwaters inundated garages and basements and swept away several cars, leaving residents shaken after a night of fear.

Behind The Scenes Of The Vatican

New recruit of the Swiss Guards tries his uniform on with two dressmakers on May 6, 2016 at the Vatican. The pompous title 'defenders of the freedom of the Church' qualifies the Swiss Guards, of which there are one hundred. These soldiers are not nearly as picturesque as their uniforms, which are said to have been designed by either Raphael or Michaelangelo, but whose design was actually produced at the turn of the last century. It is not a simple procedure to become a member of the Guard, which is one of the world's oldest military factions. One must have Swiss nationality, be of the Catholic faith, measure over 1.74 meters in height, and be less than 25 years of age when signing on for the first time.
