Was Lost City of Atlantis Found in Spanish Marsh?
By Lisa Holewa - AOL NewsCrime solvers follow the money, but experts searching for the lost city of Atlantis? In archaeology, "you should follow the stones," Richard Freund said. Freund, a University of Hartford professor, believes he and his research team have found the legendary island-city described by Plato in about 360 B.C. as having "in a single day and night ... disappeared into the depths of the sea." Using satellite photography, ground-penetrating radar, underwater technology and some old-fashioned reasoning, Freund said his team pinpointed the city in a vast marsh in southern Spain that dries out one month ...

Pompeii Exhibit Shines Light on Buried City
By not in system - AOL NewsNEW YORK -- A new exhibition from Italy that opens today in New York's Discovery Times Square captures the last gasp of the ancient city of Pompeii before it was buried under volcanic ash, mud and rock when Mount Vesuvius erupted 2,000 years ago. Copies of body casts that researchers made from the skeletal remains of residents buried alive are an eerie part of the exhibit -- a crouching man covers his mouth, a chained dog appears contorted, a family of four huddle together. A short film recreates what Pompeians might have felt as they tried to escape. The museum's floor vibrates as the ...
Libyan Chaos Stirs Global Panic Over Oil Supplies
By not in system - AOL NewsMADRID -- Libya's oil industry is in chaos - and there's no telling when that will end. Armed men loot equipment from oil field installations. British and German commandos execute secret raids in the Libyan desert to rescue stranded oil workers as security disintegrates rapidly in remote camps. Libyan port workers, frightened of being caught up in Moammar Gadhafi's violent crackdown on protesters, fail to show up for work, leaving empty tankers floating around the Mediterranean Sea waiting to load crude. And the European oil companies extracting Libya's black gold are operating in crisis ...

King of Spain Has Very Silly Ring Tone
By Andra Varin - AOL NewsYou'd think that people would have had enough of silly ring tones. But it seems even a king can't resist downloading a sound that tickles the royal fancy. That became clear Monday when the new ambassadors from several South and Central American nations presented their credentials to Spain's King Juan Carlos at a ceremony at the palace in Madrid. The 73-year-old king was welcoming the new ambassador from Honduras, Norman Garcia Paz, when the slightly eerie sound of a giggling child rang out, El Pais newspaper reported. The assembled ambassadors froze as they realized the incongruous sound ...
