American super celebrity Elizabeth Taylor has died at the age of 79. But how will the icon be remembered? As a sizzling actress? Sex symbol? Frequent divorcee? Champion of AIDS research?

Florida’s bill aimed at making farm photography illegal and discouraging animal abuse investigators passed, but with some amendments.
