In this Wednesday, March 26, 2014 photo, some of the skeletons found by construction workers under central London's Charterhouse Square are pictured. Twenty-five skeletons were uncovered last year during work on Crossrail, a new rail line that's boring 13 miles (21 kilometers) of tunnels under the heart of the city. Archaeologists immediately suspected the bones came from a cemetery for victims of the bubonic plague that ravaged Europe in the 14th century. The Black Death, as the plague was called, is thought to have killed at least 75 million people, including more than half of Britain's population. (AP Photo/Lefteris Pitarakis)

Sean Adl-Tabatabai, left, and Sinclair Treadway kiss each other after they were announced officially married during a wedding ceremony in the Council Chamber at Camden Town Hall in London, minutes into Saturday, March 29, 2014. Gay couples in Britain waited decades for the right to get married. When the opportunity came, some had just days to plan the biggest moment of their lives. Adl-Tabatabai, a 32-year-old TV producer from London, and Treadway, a 20-year-old student originally from Los Angeles, registered their intent to marry on March 13, the first day gay couples could sign up for wedding ceremonies under Britain's new law. Eager to be part of history, the two men picked the earliest possible moment - just after midnight Friday, when the act legalizing same-sex marriage takes effect. (AP Photo/Matt Dunham)
