Neil Patrick Harris Apologizes For Serving Amy Winehouses Corpse As A Meat Platter – Stereogum

The internet is full of horrors, and many of those horrors are a result of people trying to be funny. Every once in a while, one of those horrors will resurface, and everyone involved will be forced to reckon with their past asshole behavior. That’s currently happening with the actor Neil Patrick Harris, who has now apologized for the stunt he pulled at a Halloween party in 2011. At that party, Harris and his husband David Burtka served a meat platter that was made to look like the rotted-out body of Amy Winehouse, who had just died of alcohol poisoning three months earlier at the age of 27.

Amber Heard testifies her role in Aquaman 2 was reduced after Johnny Depps attorney called her abuse claims a hoax – CNN

Depp's attorneys began cross-examination of Heard on Monday afternoon. Depp has accused Heard of defaming him in a 2018 op-ed for the Washington Post. In the piece, which published roughly two years after they divorced, Heard described herself as a "public figure representing domestic abuse." Though Depp was not named in the article, he claims it cost him lucrative acting roles. Heard has filed a counterclaim for $100 million. On Monday, Heard testified about the op-ed at the center of the case. She said she did not want Depp's name in piece, originally drafted by the ACLU, but agreed to have it published in her name because she believed in raising awareness for the issues addressed in the op-ed. "Every word of it is true," Heard said. Heard testified she had no role in writing the ...

Inside the global hunt for a culprit in mysterious hepatitis cases – The Washington Post

Placeholder while article actions load The young child had been vomiting for days and was now at a Birmingham, Ala., hospital with yellowing eyes and a severely inflamed liver. Helena Gutierrez, a pediatric gastroenterologist, ran blood tests that immediately ruled out all the common causes of viral hepatitis. She remembered thinking how rare it was to see acute hepatitis with an unknown cause in an otherwise healthy child. Within a week, a second child with the same symptoms showed up at Children’s of Alabama. And then a third. “Sometimes in medicine, cases come in threes, so we started to think, ‘Maybe three cases and we’ll be done,’ ” Gutierrez said. But the cases kept coming. Over the next four months, doctors would care for nine children, all younger than 6, with severe liver infla...

FALLS CHURCH, Va. (AP) — Jurors in Johnny Depp’s libel trial against his ex-wife, Amber Heard, saw photos Monday of her with red marks and swelling on her face after their final fight before their divorce, and heard testimony about her expertise in covering up bruises with makeup. Heard concluded her direct testimony in a Virginia courtroom with a third day that was centered on the final months of her marriage to Depp. His lawyers began their cross-examination later in the afternoon.

Targeting the Uneven Burden of Kidney Disease on Black Americans – The New York Times

“I was all for it,” Malcolm said. So was Martin. When they were tested, the brothers learned they had the variants and that the variants, not lupus, most likely were damaging their kidneys. They hardly knew how to react. “I am still trying to grapple with it,” Malcolm said. But Dr. Olabisi was not surprised. Researchers think the variants cause kidney disease only when there is a secondary factor. A leading candidate is the body’s own antiviral response, interferon, which is produced in abundance in people with lupus. High levels of interferon also occur in people with untreated H.I.V. As happens in people with Covid-19, they can suffer an unusual and catastrophic collapse of their kidneys if they have the variants. Other viral infections, including some that may go unnoticed, can elicit ...
