America’s new First Lady Michelle Obama wowed the crowd election night with her red-and-black Narciso Rodriguez dress from the designer’s spring 2009 collection. She accessorized with a black cardigan, kitten heels, diamond bangles and earrings.

CALDWELL - An email that compares Michelle Obama to a black widow spider is circulating the Internet. CBS 2 received a copy of the email from a concerned viewer. The email was forwarded by Canyon County commissioner Steve Rule. "The female has a very wide backside, is Black, and has a red hour glass shaped marking on her belly," the email says. The email continues, "You can find this spider in Closets, Wood piles, Under beds, And soon... THE WHITE HOUSE!!!!!! Following the comments is a photograph of Michelle Obama wearing a red and black dress. The president of the...

~Rover's Top 10 proofs that liberals are brainwashed/mentally ill/completely insane~For those of you who have ever wondered how Democrats came to be known as the Jack@$$ Party... #10: Many Obama supporters have praised Michelle Obama's "great" taste in clothes (According to Barack Obama, she does NOT hire a fashion consultant). Vanity Fair even ranks her on its "international best-dressed" list. Fans liken her to Jackie Kennedy. Are they crazy?! Many people, including me, do NOT find a black widow suitable to be First Lady. But then, I suppose that's racist.

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, S.C. (April 6) - A man who received a heart transplant 12 years ago and later married the donor's widow died the same way the donor did, authorities said: of a self-inflicted gunshot wound. No foul play was suspected in 69-year-old Sonny Graham's death at his Vidalia, Ga., home, investigators said. He was found Tuesday in a utility building in his backyard with a single shotgun wound to the throat, said Greg Harvey, a special agent with the Georgia Bureau of Investigation. Graham, who was director of the Heritage golf tournament at Sea Pines from 1979 to...

HILTON HEAD ISLAND, SC (AP) - Terry Cottle and Sonny Graham never met, but the two men shared two very important things - a heart and a wife. They also died the same way: Cottle, 12 years ago from a self-inflicted gunshot wound at the Summerville home he shared with his wife, Cheryl; the 69-year-old Graham died the same way last week outside his Vidalia, Georgia, home that he shared with his wife, Cheryl. When Cottle died at age 33, his organs were donated. Graham got Cottle's heart and nine years later, he married Cottle's widow. (More at source...)

Still in Control Pervez Musharraf was calm, confident and—despite a flurry of rumors—not about to announce his resignation. Instead, the Pakistani president's "concession" to his troubled nation was an announcement that he would allow Britain's Scotland Yard to help local law enforcement agencies with their investigation into last week's assassination of former prime minister Benazir Bhutto. Speaking in a nationally televised address two hours after Pakistan's election commission announced the postponement of the ballot to Feb. 18, six weeks later than had been scheduled, Musharraf was notably deferential in his remarks about Bhutto, often invoking her "martyrdom" and extolling...

A 62-year-old woman known as the "Black Widow" is being held in a North Carolina jail on $1.5 million bond for relatively petty charges, while police race to unravel a web of mysteries — including the deaths of her two husbands and a female "best friend" — before time runs out and "she's outta here."

A man spent three days in hospital after being bitten by a venomous spider now spreading across the country because of global warming. The false widow spider, a relative of the black widow, bit Jason Fricker, 34, three times on the chest and stomach after it fell down the front of his shirt a week ago. By Sunday, after treatment as an outpatient the previous day, Mr Fricker, a father of two from Dorchester, was admitted as an emergency by doctors who believed the venom was attacking his nervous system, causing a heart attack. The creature that caused such damage,...

BITTER blonde infected with the Aids virus went on a vengeful mission to spread the disease. Sarah Jane Porter, 43, was made HIV positive by a black lover — and set out to pass it to other Afro-Caribbean men. She is thought to have had unprotected sex with DOZENS. The single mum, of Kennington, South London, was yesterday jailed for infecting one ex — and branded “pure evil”. A former lover of Porter told last night how she set out on a callous “payback mission”. The 37-year-old man — known as Mr B — called her “sick in the head”....

EATEN BY HIS PET SPIDERS Feb 27 2004 Cops' macabre find in flat From Allan Hall In Berlin SPIDERMAN Mark Voegel became a gruesome feast for the creepy-crawlies he loved. They devoured his body after he got a lethal bite from his favourite pet Bettina - a deadly Black Widow. More than 200 spiders, several snakes, a gecko called Helmut and several thousand termites gorged on their former master for days. Police who were called in after neighbours complained about the smell said it was "like a scene from a horror movie". They found the remains of 30-year-old loner Voegel...
