Italy — The Army in Italy has launched an online vehicle registration system
which officials say will reduce time service members and their families spend settling in as the busy summer moving season approaches
The new system allows soldiers and civilian employees to submit most paperwork electronically
Once the preliminary information is approved
registration is finalized during an in-person appointment that should take just five to 10 minutes
“Before we were doing most of this stuff in person
This should be something that is easy and convenient for newcomers,” said Rick Scavetta
A Stars and Stripes reporter recently tried out the new system
Users fill out an online form with personal information and vehicle specifications
then receive an email with instructions for sending copies of documents such as the registration and title
The documents should be approved within a few days
the applicant should receive a message asking for information
users receive an email with appointment details for payment and signatures
Registration renewal appointments can be made on the U.S
The program was tested at Camp Darby in February and is now available at Caserma Ederle and Del Din in Vicenza
Adoption of the speedier process by the Army in Italy comes on the heels of a huge backlog that began last year for Defense Department personnel at various places in Germany
The changes in Italy are different from those in Germany
But he added that the goal is the same: to get people out of administrative tasks and back to work as soon as possible
“These things can be really time consuming

Italy — A storm Wednesday that dumped more than 4 inches of rain on Vicenza prompted cancellation of activities at all Defense Department schools at U.S
There was no rain-related damage or flooding on Caserma Ederle or Caserma Del Din
but floodwaters in the city were causing road closures and traffic delays
post office and vehicle registration had difficulty getting to work
That affected the level of service at those places Wednesday
Vicenza base schools will remain shuttered Thursday
as officials decided to extend the closure
the Vicenza exchange and commissary will shorten their open hours Thursday
the health and dental clinics are rescheduling Thursday appointments set for before 10 a.m
The decision to close all three of the on-base schools came shortly after local authorities announced the shutdown of Italian schools Wednesday
The garrison commander and DODEA officials agreed to close schools for safety purposes
An update on what day school will reopen was expected later Wednesday
Classes were canceled at schools in Vicenza
Another half-inch of rain was forecast through late Wednesday
according to the 7th Combat Weather Squadron at Caserma Del Din
but forecasts called for up to another inch of rain throughout Friday
DODEA schools in Aviano and at the Navy’s installation in Naples remained open Wednesday
A thunderstorm warning was issued Wednesday for the areas of Camp Darby and Naval Support Activity Naples
but no decisions about delays or closures for Thursday had been announced as of late Wednesday afternoon
Flooding in February was almost unheard-of in Italy 20 years ago
but climate change is making heavy rains in the wintertime less rare
meteorologist Marco Rabito told the newspaper Il Giornale di Vicenza

Food For Profit è un film documentario della giornalista Giulia Innocenzi e del filmmaker Pablo D’Ambrosi che mette sotto accusa l’industria degli allevamenti intensivi e i meccanismi di finanziamento con cui l’Unione Europea la sovvenziona lautamente
Il film mostra immagini crude delle condizioni degli animali
ma traccia anche un quadro molto critico sulle condizioni di lavoro di chi opera nel settore
Il film, prodotto da Giulia Innocenzi e distribuito dall’indipendente Mescalitofilm
sta diventando un piccolo caso perché grazie al passaparola e alle proiezioni organizzate da associazioni
collettivi e università sta raggiungendo numeri importanti: arrivato nei cinema il 27 febbraio
il 18 marzo al box office si è posizionato al quinto posto per incassi giornalieri
Presentato il 22 febbraio al Parlamento Europeo
alle ore 16 nella Nuova Aula dei Gruppi Parlamentari
Al centro del film ci sono le inchieste coordinate dall’associazione LAV: una squadra di investigatori ha lavorato sotto copertura negli allevamenti dei principali paesi europei
svelando una realtà diversa da come viene presentata
coordinatore dell’ufficio di Bruxelles di Eumans – Cittadini per la democrazia e la sostenibilità
ha condotto l’indagine sotto copertura come lobbista a Bruxelles
Ecco alcune delle proiezioni in programma nei prossimi giorni in Veneto
dove in alcuni casi la regista Giulia Innocenti sarà anche presente in sala
