Monument lifted from Cleopatra’s underwater city

ALEXANDRIA, Egypt – Egyptian archaeologists on Thursday lifted an ancient granite temple pylon out of the waters of the Mediterranean, where it had lain for centuries as part of the palace complex of Cleopatra, submerged in Alexandria's harbor.

Divers and underwater archaeologists used a giant crane and ropes to lift the 9-ton, 7.4-foot-tall pylon, covered with muck and seaweed, out of the murky waters.

It’s the circle of life. Spice lady Geri Halliwell must have known this day would come, she’s getting up there in years and her boobs are slowly making a break south so it was just a matter of time before she’d have to be hanging out with old perverts to make ends meet.

Oprah’s Crazy Cruise

CELEBRITY BUZZ : Oprah paid for 2,000 people (staffers and their guests) to take a 10-day Mediterranean cruise that allegedly resulted in pure debauchery, including naked drunks, a forgotten passenger, and a couple caught having sex on deck.
