April 27th, 2008 admin

April 15th, 2008 admin

There’s an interesting debate going on in our Talk! section at the moment on whether newspapers or televisions (or indeed parenting sites) should give any space at all to featuring news about broken celebrities such as Kerry Katona who are allegedly bi-polar.

‘It is about time the British press in particular starting taking a more responsible attitude towards what they publish and pay for, around the lives of people whom I would class as actually being pretty seriously ill,’ says BettyBetty.

Kerry Katona and friends in the Return of the Bonkbuster

March 26th, 2008 admin

“Oh God, oh God, you’re too sexy! I’m not sure I can make it to the bedroom,” panted Harry Levin, his tongue licking Molly’s neck like a hungry wolf. They had only just burst in through the front door and already Harry’s hand had plunged down Molly’s halter-neck to grab at her…”

Gripping stuff, but not entirely appropriate for a family newspaper. Apologies then to fans of vintage Jackie Collins and Jilly Cooper who are gagging for a time when books were filled with insatiable über-millionaires on the prowl for premier-league sex and glamorous heroines with a real thirst for power. But their prayers are about to be answered. After decades of neglect, the bonkbuster is back. It’s bye-bye Bridget Jones and the misery of single life in a bedsit, and hello the champagne lifestyle of Russian oligarchs, supermodels and WAGs, set against the international backdrop of five-star hotels, yachts and private jets.

Kerry Katona May Have Pre-Eclampsia

March 26th, 2008 admin

Ex-Atomic Kitten star Kerry Katona is in hospital with what could be pre-eclampsia, according to her publicist Max Clifford.
So what is pre-eclampsia?

It is a complication that only occurs in pregnancy; about 1 in 14 pregnant women will develop it.

It usually occurs later on in the pregnancy, after the 20th week and signs include high blood pressure, protein in the urine - caused by leaks from the kidneys - as well as swollen hands and feet.

It is not known what causes the condition but one theory is that it may be a problem with the placenta: the blood vessels do not develop properly, affecting the transfer of oxygen and nutrients to the baby.

If left uncontrolled, the condition may develop into eclampsia which is life-threatening.
