VENICE, Italy - Italian officials are stumped after a patch of Venice's famed Grand Canal turned a fluorescent green over the weekend.Footage released by the Vigili del Fuoco, Italy’s national firefighters, shows a patch of Venice's famed Grand Canal turning a fluorescent green Sunday morning in the Rialto area.Environmental officials with the Regional Agency for Environmental Protection and Prevention of Veneto said they are investigating alongside Venice's police and fire departments. Authorities said the green substance was present on the surface and soluble in the water. Samples were taken at different levels of the surface water body to evaluate how much of the substance tended to settle on the seabed.Some samples were also carried out in the canals bordering the Rialto Bridge, where the anomalous substance gradually spread, also due to the effect of the tide.A first analysis of the samples excludes the presence of substances dangerous for the environment, authorities said.DEADLY ITALIAN FLOODS: BEFORE-AND-AFTER SATELLITE IMAGES SHOW SCALE OF DEVASTATIONA fluorescent patch has colored part of the Grand Canal and the lagoon in Venice, Italy, green.

(Photo by Luke Dray/Getty Images) KAMPALA, Uganda - Uganda's president has signed into law tough new anti-gay legislation supported by many in this East African country but widely condemned by rights activists and others abroad.The version of the bill signed by President Yoweri Museveni doesn't criminalize those who identify as LGBTQ, a key concern for campaigners who condemned an earlier draft of the legislation as an egregious attack on human rights.But the new law still prescribes the death penalty for "aggravated homosexuality," which is defined as cases of sexual relations involving people infected with HIV as well as with minors and other categories of vulnerable people.A suspect convicted of "attempted aggravated homosexuality" can be imprisoned for up to 14 years, according to the legislation.RELATED: UN rights chief calls Uganda anti-LGBTQ bill 'deeply troubling'Parliamentary Speaker Anita Among said in a statement that the president had "answered the cries of our people" in signing the bill."With a lot of humility, I thank my colleagues the Members of Parliament for withstanding all the pressure from bullies and doomsday conspiracy theorists in the interest of our country," the statement said.Museveni had returned the bill to the national assembly in April, asking for changes that would differentiate between identifying as LGBTQ and actually engaging in homosexual acts.
