Now to Love

A married TV reporter couple have been charged with child abuse after traces of cocaine was found in their little baby girl’s system.

Som and Krystin Lisaius pleaded guilty on counts each of drug and child-abuse charges following the May 15 incident in which the couple brought their little girl to Oro Valley Hospital.

Tuscon Weekly reports the baby wouldn’t wake up and her eyes rolled back into her head.

The baby tested positive for cocaine and the couple admitted to using the drug on the Saturday night back in May.

Krsytin – who worked at KGUN Channel 9 two years ago as a reporter – told police she breastfed her baby the next morning but did not think she would be affected 12 hours after she used cocaine.

Detectives later found 1.8 grams of cocaine in a desk drawer at their home, as well as white residue on a Safeway Club Card in Krystin’s name and a rolled-up dollar bill inside a Tiffany jewellery box.

Fortunately, the baby is expected to recover completely, police have stated.

The couple’s attorney, Michael Piccarreta, said the baby has been placed with her maternal grandmother once she was released from hospital.

Krystin is allowed 24-hour contact with her child in her mother’s house, and Som is allowed to see the baby for 12 hours a day.

Their next court hearing is set for July 28.

The series of tweets took aim at people who post mean things anonymously.

“When will people hiding behind computer screens get tired of calling someone ‘fat’ or ‘masculine’ – does it make you feel good typing your hateful comments? Does it fulfil you in some dark way?” she tweeted.

The Kick-Ass star, who is currently holidaying in New York with her boyfriend Brooklyn Beckham, continued.

Dennis Quaid’s wife Kimberly Buffington-Quaid has filed for divorce from him a second time

The move comes just after Dennis was enjoying a career resurgence.

CelebrityElizabeth Best

Dennis Quaid and his wife Kimberly Buffington-Quaid are calling it quits… again.

Kimberly was the one to file the divorce papers in Los Angeles on Tuesday, according to TMZ.

This isn’t the first time the blonde has filed the paperwork to separate from her actor husband.

And it’s just after Dennis received a big, fat pay check from his newest show The Art of More, broadcast on streaming service Crackle.

He was also named one of People magazine’s Sexiest Men Alive recently.

Check out Dennis reacting to being a Sexiest Man at 61! Post continues.

Dennis Quaid, pictured with Bryan Cranston, Crackle general manager Eric Berger and Kate Bosworth, had been enjoying a new career high with his new show The Art of More.

Unlike the last time when papers were reportedly filed without his knowledge, it’s believed that this time Dennis wasn’t blindsided by the move.

A joint statement read: “After careful consideration, we have decided to end our 12-year marriage. The decision was made amicably and with mutual respect toward one another.”

The couple have been together for 12 years.

It continued: “We will always remain great friends and devoted partners in raising our children.”

The mother of two previously filed for divorce from Dennis in March 2012 but only two months later she changed her mind and withdrew the motion.

It’s the second time Dennis has had to endure the pressure of a separation from Kimberly.

Sources told TMZ that the couple have already sorted out most of the split.

One of the first things the former lovers reportedly did was negotiate who was getting what in terms of assets.

The devoted parents plan to share custody of their eight-year-old twins Thomas and Zoe.

5 ways to burn calories without even realising

Discover how you can slim down without even entering a gym!

Now to Love

While a nutritious diet and regular exercise are key aspects to a healthier, happier you, one of the biggest secrets to staying lean actually lies in your subconscious habits.

Believe it or not, tiny adjustments to your everyday life can actually help you burn hundreds of calories, which in turn can equate to kilos shed every year.

And the best part? You won’t even realise you’re doing it!

Check out our top 5 favourite ways to burn calories without even realising.

1. Tap that toe

This just in: fidgeting is actually one of the easiest and sneakiest ways to easily shed those winter kilos!

Those who pace or bounce their feet subconsciously under their desk can burn up to 350 calories a day, which can equate to a huge loss of up to 10 kilos per year.

Assuming you don’t consume your lost calories, of course.

2. Swap your desk chair for an exercise ball

Replacing your lazy desk chair for an exercise ball increases the body’s calorie-burning capacity by six percent.

Because the ball forces you to mindlessly use muscle groups that you otherwise wouldn’t such as the abdominals, back, glutes and quads, you can burn a whopping 200 calories by spending just two hours sitting.

Try eating only what you need. This poached egg and avocado bruschetta will fill you up, without the added calories!

3. Drink ice cold water

Of course, experts recommend a glass of water before a meal to supress appetite and avoid over-eating, but that’s only the tip of the iceberg when it comes to the key part H20 plays in weight loss.

Next time you feel parched; opt for a glass of icy-cold water as opposed to room temperature water. The coolness of the h20 gives your body a metabolic boost of about 25 calories per glass as your body needs to work harder to warm the water to its core temperature.

If you follow doctor’s orders and drink 8 glasses a day, that’s an easy 200 calories!

4. Eat off smaller plates

A recent study found that swapping your 12-inch plate for a 10-inch one can save you a huge 500 calories. Why? Because you’ll typically serve yourself 20-25% less food to begin with, meaning that overeating will become a thing of the past.

Applying this principle for a year can equate to a weight loss of around 8 kilos! Not bad for literally just sitting and eating.

Beauty enthusiast Gwyneth Paltrow swears by water for her youthful glow.

5. Wander aimlessly

You’d be surprised how many kilos you can burn by simply wandering around.

Walking around the shops for just 40 minutes can burn 100 calories, and since this is something you can easily do on your lunch break, there’s never been a better reason to treat yourself with those stunning boots you’ve been eyeing!

For those of you hoping to be more frugal, why not check out your local art gallery, museum, or even a solid dose of exploration of a new area!

Getting active in the great outdoors is the perfect way to burn calories, without even realising!

Mum suffers horrific burns as pressure cooker explodes

A mum-of-three suffered serious burns after her Casera pressure cooker with boiling soup exploded over her arms, chest and stomach.

Now to Love

WARNING: GRAPHIC IMAGES

A mum-of-three suffered serious burns after her Casera pressure cooker with boiling soup exploded over her arms, chest and stomach.

Cassie Hodges, from Goulburn, had just put her newborn baby down to serve dinner minutes before the explosion.

She received burns to 12 per cent of her body, and her husband Mark now has to help her with everyday tasks because of the unbearable pain.

Mark had put some soup in the pressure cooker on Friday night, and Cassie called out to her older girls, Olivia, five, and Ruby, two, to come to the kitchen table.

“I walked back into the kitchen and Mark let the pressure release valve off to release the pressure. The steam came out of the top as normal. Then I heard a click, suddenly I knew the lid unlocked and the next minute I was hit with something,” she told Kidspot.

Shockingly, the lid had unlocked and with the pressure building, it flew off, showering Cassie and Mark in boiling liquid.

“The entire contents hit me like as if someone chucked a bucket of water at me, the noise of it was a loud sizzle,” she said.

“I immediately screamed. My partner was holding his stomach and he pulled his arm back and his skin was all peeled off. I removed my singlet and ran to the shower.

She believes her daughter Olivia will require counselling after seeing the accident unfold.

An ambulance and fire truck arrived to take Cassie and Mark to hospital.

She said: “I was lucky, if I hadn’t gotten straight into the shower I would have needed skin grafts and doctors said if I had breathed any of it in I would have been put into a coma to save my life.

“I was told I had to have all my dead burnt skin removed by scraping with a rough towel and biobrane, a type of pig skin, applied immediately.”

Mark suffered a deep burn on his stomach.

Cassie is positive the couple will make a full recovery and is grateful her son wasn’t hurt.

“It terrifies me, I’ve cried many times thinking about my son, thinking it could have been him,” she said.

Cassie is using this as a warning to other people who own the Casera pressure cooker (which she received as a Christmas present in 2014), urging them to throw it out or demand a refund.

“I want people to be aware of the dangers, we did nothing wrong, the machine unlocked prematurely, it should stay locked and unable to be opened until the pressure is all gone,” she said.

Cassie yesterday met with a lawyer and has so far been unsuccessful in contacting the manufacturer.

The shocking red flag this doctor missed

“It was the worst red flag that a surgeon could see.”

Now to Love

A woman who vomited faecal matter for days before she eventually died was failed by her surgeon, who missed several major signs her health was deteriorating, a judge has found.

Colleen Stefanyszyn, 61, died in September 2008 after a hysterectomy performed at Newcastle Private Hospital by Dr Oliver Brown.

This week, NSW Supreme Court Justice Monika Schmidt found that her death was preventable, awarding her family a $1.6 million settlement.

Stefanyszyn died after suture material was accidentally looped around her bowel during her hysterectomy surgery performed by Dr Brown.

Shortly after the surgery, she began vomiting faecal matter, a sure sign something had gone seriously wrong.

“That was the worst red flag a surgeon would see,” the court heard.

Dr Oliver Brown

But Dr Brown failed to order further tests because he was “fixated” on a diagnosis of “postoperative ileus”, a normal delay in digestive function after surgery.

He ordered Stefanyszyn be nil by mouth for 24 hours but despite this, she continued vomiting faecal matter, something he ignored.

Her vital signs then began declining, with hospital staff recording an elevated pulse rate, a drop in blood pressure and a dangerously low blood oxygen level of 73 per cent. Despite this, they and Dr Brown failed to act to save her life.

Eventually, at 5am on December 6, 2008, Stefanyszyn went into cardiac arrest and died.

Justice Schmidt found that Dr Brown was 80 per cent responsible for Stefanyszyn’s death, while the hospital deserved 20 per cent of the blame.

Piers Morgan slams Kanye West’s ‘Famous’ video

The British journalist and TV host isn't a fan of the controversial new clip.

CelebrityJody Phan

Just three months after he declared “feminism is dead” following Kim Kardashian and Emily Ratajkowski’s topless selfie, Piers Morgan has slammed the reality star once again.

In a column for the Mail Online, the Good Morning Britain host expressed his disgust over the clip, which features life-like wax figures of celebrities including Rihanna, Bill Cosby, Chris Brown, Anna Wintour and Taylor Swift lying naked in bed alongside Kim and Kanye.

Kanye’s polarising new video is an homage to Vincent Desiderio’s ‘Sleep’ painting.

Piers said the video “portraying women as vulnerable pieces of meat for the delectation of the slathering public” does nothing but “makes yet further mockery of Kim’s claims to be some sort of feminist icon.”

This time, the 51-year-old took aim at Kim’s husband Kanye West’s latest music video for his song Famous, calling it “a shockingly tacky, hideously distasteful, darkly sinister porn movie.”

Emily Ratajkowski’s topless selfie with Kim was previously slammed by Piers Morgan.

The ex-CNN host called upon Lena Dunham’s critique of the music video to support his public lashing of KimYe.

The Girls actress took to Facebook on Monday to share her thoughts on the “sickening” release, which features her BFF Taylor Swift in a very compromising position (or at least a doll version of Swift).

Watch the clip below for all the details on Lena Dunham’s Facebook post slamming Kanye.

The actors directors hate working with

They’re some of the most beloved movie stars of all time – but some directors would never work with these stars again.

Now to Love

Julia Roberts

She’s America’s sweetheart but not everyone enjoys working with Julia Roberts. Superstar director Steven Spielberg was unimpressed when Roberts appear in his 1991 film Hook, later telling 60 Minutes he wouldn’t work with her again.

She was infuriated by his comments, later telling Vanity Fair “it was the first time that I felt I had a turncoat in my midst”. Spielberg stuck to his guns, issuing a statement reiterating that it had been a “tough time” in Roberts’ life, but he was glad she had gone on to become such a big success.

George Clooney and David O Russell on the set of Three Kings.

George Clooney

He’s beloved by women the world over but George Clooney is the first to admit he tried to kill Three Kings director David O Russell. Russell was a notorious bully who made several members of the cast and crew cry.

When Clooney confronted him about it, Russell challenged him to a fight, slapping him about the head. “Then, he got me by the throat and I went nuts,” Clooney said.

“I had him by the throat. I was going to kill him. The movie was truly, without exception, the worst experience of my life.”

Russell agreed, saying he wouldn’t work with Clooney again, even if he was offered $20 million.

Bruce Willis and Kevin Smith on the set of Cop Out.

Bruce Willis

According to director Kevin Smith, working with Bruce Willis was “soul crushing”.

Smith, who directed Willis in 2009 film Cop Out let rip at the action star in his memoirs, saying: “He turned out to be the unhappiest, most bitter, and meanest b—h I’ve ever met at any job I’ve held down. And mind you, I’ve worked at Domino’s Pizza.” Willis has never publicly responded to Smith’s claims.

Megan Fox and Transformers director Michael Bay.

Megan Fox

Fox made headlines in 2009 when she lashed out at Transformers director Michael Bay in an interview with Wonderland magazine, comparing him to Hitler and declaring him to be a “nightmare” to work with and accusing him of having “no social skills at all”.

Michael responded in GQ, saying: “Megan loves to get a response. And she does it in the wrong way. I’m sorry, Megan. I’m sorry I made you work 12 hours. I’m sorry that I’m making you show up on time. Movies are not always warm and fuzzy.”

Faye Dunaway and Roman Polanski.

Faye Dunaway

Screen siren Faye Dunaway was admired everywhere she went, but to director Roman Polanski, she was nothing but a “gigantic pain in the ass”.

Polanski, who directed Dunaway in Chinatown, said the actress “demonstrated certifiable proof of insanity”, reportedly because she once threw a cup of urine in his face to protest against because refused a toilet break during filming.

Kim Basinger

Kim Basinger

9 1/2 Weeks made Kim Basinger a star, but making the erotic drama was one of the worst experiences of her life.

Kim claimed director Adrian Lyne bullied her mercilessly, while he claimed he just did what he had to do to get a good performance out of a “child” like her.

Drunk woman drove home with corpse on windscreen

After the car stopped, she got out and walked home.

Now to Love

A Californian woman drove home after a night of drinking with a corpse on her windscreen.

Scroll down for video

Esteysi Sanchez Iazaga, 29, reportedly began driving her car home in the early hours of Monday morning after participating in an all-night drinking bender.

Around 6:20am, she hit a transient who was either walking to or from a local soup kitchen, KGTV reports.

According to local police, the victim landed on her windshield and somehow became wedged there.

However, witnesses say she did not immediately stop but continued to drive.

The impact tore off one of the man’ legs, which went through a back window, landing on the boot of the vehicle.

The rest of his body then flipped onto the windscreen, shattering the glass, leaving him impaled into the vehicle with the top of his head lying on the passenger seat, news.com.au reports.

After the car went up onto the sidewalk and came to a stop, Sanchez reportedly exited the vehicle and walked away.

She then told her husband when she got home and he called the police.

She’s since been charged with felony DUI and vehicular manslaughter.

The victim was pronounced dead at the scene.
