SIRACUSA, Sicily — Pope John Paul II has acknowledged what has been objections to millions. He walks with a cane.
After months of walking with a cane following hip-replacement surgery April 29, the pope has begun waving it jokingly, asking people what they think.

"Are you pro-cane or anti-cane?" he asked young people Saturday night during a three-day trip to Sicily. "Some say it makes me look older. Others that it rejuvenates me."
Long known for his vigor and his image as a pope who skis and hikes in the mountains, the 74-year pontiff is trying to make the best of the contrast.
John Paul put his leg to the test on the Sicilian journey, his first major outing since he canceled last month's visit to the United States because of hip surgery.

MILAN, Italy — The worst flooding in memory turned northern Italy into a disaster area yesterday, killing at least 54 people across southern Europe and North Africa.

With hundreds of people reported missing, the number of dead was expected to rise as rescuers reached isolated villages and searched through the rubble of destroyed homes.

The flooding swept away bridges and whole sections of highway, cutting off hundreds of villages.
Hardest hit was Italy's northern Piedmont region. At least 27 people were dead or missing. Twenty-four inches of rain fell in Piedmont over 60 hours by late yesterday. The rain was expected to continue another 24 hours.
Italian officials said 20,000 firefighters, police and volunteers were struggling through the downpour with the help of helicopters and amphibious vehicles to distribute food and blankets.
Flooding also hit Liguria, Lombardy and Vald'Aosta, where several feet of snow struck Alpine areas. Heavy rains drenched much of central Italy, Sicily and the Naples area.

Mosque will reopen under heavy security
Both Muslims and Jews protested new Israel security measures at the Tomb of the Patriarchs, which is reopening today more than eight months after a Jewish settler machine-gunned 29 Muslims as they knelt in prayer.
The measures would have Muslims and Jews pray separately. They also would have separate bathrooms and walkways outside the shrine, which has been equipped with metal detectors, electronic gates and television cameras.
Yasser Arafat, head of the Palestinian self-rule authority, issued a statement saying that restructuring the building violated the Israeli-PLO peace treaty.
"We consider the Ibrahimii Mosque a holy place for Muslims, and we do not accept division or separation," he said. "We see this separation as a provocation that will lead to increasing tension between Muslims and Jews."
"It seems that it has been altered into a fortress," Hebron Mayor Mustafa Natche said after inspecting the interior.

Greenpeace Russia said it discovered the new spill 40 miles north of the oil town of Usinsk on Friday. A duty officer at the Russian Ministry for Emergency Situations said that the ministry had no information on any new spill.
Both sides were given the same kind of warning about the deteriorating situation, said Rose's spokesman, Lt. Col. Tim Spicer. He did not elaborate.
Greenpeace Russia said that the oil had been set ablaze and that a mile-long stream of burning oil fed by lakes of oil two feet deep cut across the tundra.
fighting. Another U.N. official spoke by phone with the Bosian Sperbs at their headquarters in Pale.
"This is a major oil disaster caused by oil companies that refused to stop pumping their oil down a pipeline they know is falling apart," said Paul Horsman of Greenpeace Russia.
Fighting around the capital reigned Saturday when government forces fired four mortar shells from the southern suburb of Hrasnica at Bosnian Serb positions in Ilidza, southwest of the capital, said U.N. military spokesman Maj. Koos Sol.
MOSCOW
A new rupture in a 31-mile pipeline has spilled nearly 4 million gallons of oil in Russia's far north just miles from the site of a huge spill this fall, an environmental group said yesterday.
The earlier spill, also north of Usinsk and one 1,000 miles northeast of Moscow, reportedly already has polluted the salmon-rich Pechora River. It resulted from a series of ruptures along the pipeline over the last few months.
