Visitors wait in front of one of Pompeii gates, Italy, Monday, June 23, 2014. A labor dispute kept tourists locked out of Pompeii for part of Monday, the latest in a spate of hours-long closures at the ancient Roman ruins. The gates were unlocked a couple of hours late, frustrating tourists wanting to enter the sprawling ruins in early morning. The dispute over work schedules and back pay began last week, keeping thousands of visitors shut out for hours at a time during union meetings. The government office that runs Pompeii said that three assemblies planned later this week were canceled, meaning visitors could expect regular opening hours. (AP Photo/Salvatore Laporta)

In this photo taken on April 8, 2010, Venice's Mayor Giorgio Orsoni is pictured at Ca Farsetti palace in Venice, Italy. Italian authorities Wednesday, June 4, 2014 have arrested the mayor of Venice and 35 others in a sweeping corruption investigation related to the construction of underwater barriers to protect the historic city from flooding. Italian financial police confirmed Mayor Giorgio Orsoni's arrest Wednesday but had no further details. The arrests were the result of a three-year investigation by the financial police that led to the arrest last summer of the head of the consortium building the ambitious but long-delayed system of so-called Moses barriers. Authorities say 20 million euros ($27 million) was diverted abroad for the purpose of bribing politicians. (AP Photo/Luigi Costantini)

Congolese children are welcomed by their Italian adoptive relatives as they disembark after landing from Kinshasa, at Ciampino's military airport, on the outskirts of Rome, Wednesday, May 28, 2014. The children ran excitedly into their parents' arms after an overnight flight from Congo. Italy had worked since late last year to allow them to reach Italy. Congo had suspended all international adoptions citing fears some adopted children might later have been trafficked. None of the allegations involved adoptions by Italians. The parents were forced to leave Congo without their children after their visas expired. (AP Photo/Riccardo De Luca)
