...more widely known in death than she was in life. Even now, as you type BRITT... on Google, it auto-corrects to BRITNEY SPEARS. (Type one more letter and you get "Brittany Murphy death photo." Jeez.) Reports abound of erratic behavior on her recent films: she was fired from one, and on another she seemed so addled that another character had to be hastily written in to pick up Murphy's slack. No question that she had lately achieved the wraith look, and there was apparently a volcanic side to her marriage to the English screenwriter Simon Monjack - whose most...

Ms. Carfagna is not just a pretty partygoer, her achievements as Minister for Equal Opportunities are hard to deny. Among the voters who elected Berlusconi were...
...speck of Sollecito's DNA on a bra clasp found six weeks after the crime implicated Sollecito and Knox. Though Knox confessed to being present at the scene during a police interrogation, she later retracted her statement, saying it was induced under duress. But Knox's blithe behavior after the murder--she did cartwheels during questioning and made out with her boyfriend rather than displaying grief--may have aroused enough suspicion to seal her fate...
