People salvage things washed away by flash floods in a stream of rain water in Istanbul September 10, 2009. Flash floods killed 31 people in northwest Turkey, sweeping through the city of Istanbul, swamping houses, turning highways into fast-flowing rivers and drowning seven women in a minibus that was taking them to work.
