Former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s husband was allegedly involved in a hit-and-run in California on Friday. Paul Pelosi, 86, was reportedly driving his brown convertible Maserati in Yountville, a town in the heart of wine country, when he struck a legally parked car on the side of the road. According to the Napa County Sheriff’s Office, Pelosi briefly stopped and then drove away. The collision caused “major” damage to the vehicle, but no injuries were reported, according to the sheriff’s statement. A witness saw the collision and called 911. Sheriff’s deputies found Pelosi with damage to the front of his car on a road roughly a quarter of a mile away, not long after. There was no alcohol in Pelosi’s system, and as no one was hurt, he has not been arrested; he is facing a misdemeanor hit-and-run charge. The sheriff’s office also referred him to the Department of Motor Vehicles for a process to determine whether he may continue to drive—something officials say is common for older drivers. In 2022, Pelosi pleaded guilty to misdemeanor charges of driving under the influence in Napa County. He served two days in jail and one in a work program at the courthouse, after getting two days shaved off his five-day sentence for good behavior.

A skydiver participating in America’s 250th birthday celebrations crashed while parachuting with a large American flag attached to his parachute. Ross Vail was landing near the Folsom Pro Rodeo in California when his flag snagged on a tree, sending him flying into a tent and narrowly missing grandstands and a crowd that audibly gasped as when he was sent flying to the ground. A spokesperson for Choose Folsom, which organizes the annual event, told The Sacramento Bee: “Yesterday’s landing was certainly not the landing he intended, but thankfully, the skydiver is doing well.” The skydiver cut his lip but was able to resume parachuting the following day. No other injuries were reported.

Sexual wellness is no longer just about sophisticated vibrators or high-tech couples’ toys. One of the fastest-growing categories in the booming wellness category is prostate wellness. More and more men are becoming curious about exploring pleasure beyond traditional masturbation methods. Searches for prostate massagers have surged in recent years, online communities dedicated to prostate play continue to grow, and the conversation around men’s sexual health is becoming noticeably less taboo. If you’ve been curious but hesitant to invest, Lovense’s Summer Sale is a good excuse to take the plunge. From July 2 through July 10, the brand’s bestselling Edge 2 Adjustable Prostate Massager is marked down from $199 to just $93, a rare 53 percent discount. Unlike fixed-shape devices that rely on trial and error, the Edge 2 features an adjustable neck that can be customized to better match your anatomy for a more comfortable, personalized fit.

The advanced sex toy is engineered with dual motors that provide simultaneous internal and external stimulation, while independent controls let you tailor the intensity of each zone. Where the Edge 2 really stands apart, however, is its connected technology. Through the Lovense Remote app, users can browse thousands of community-created vibration patterns, sync the device to music, compatible interactive VR content, or long-distance partner control, and even connect it with other Lovense devices for a more immersive experience. Whether you’ve been prostate-play curious for years or you’re simply looking to upgrade your sexual wellness routine with smarter tech, this is one of the best prices we’ve seen on Lovense’s leading prostate massager. At more than half off, the Summer Sale makes now the perfect time to see what all the buzz is about.

Kjell Nilsson, who played Lord Humungus in Mad Max 2, has died at 76. The Swedish actor and powerlifter died in Queensland, Australia, on Thursday after a four-year battle with kidney disease. Born in Sweden in 1949, Nilsson moved to Australia in 1980 as a trainer for the Moscow Olympics. There, he met his wife, Australian actor Kate Ferguson, with whom he lived in Australia, and was encouraged to begin an acting career in Australian films. He later appeared in several films, including his role as a pirate in The Pirate Movie and as the metal-masked Lord Humungus in the popular 1981 film Mad Max 2, the role for which he is best known. In a statement to TMZ, Chris Carbough, spokesperson for Nilsson, said, “Kjell was a wonderful person who inspired many as a weight-training coach. He loved the Mad Max fans and embraced the role.” He is survived by his wife.

A copy of the Declaration of Independence written by Thomas Jefferson is displayed at the New York Public Library, June 26, 2013.

REUTERS/Brendan McDermidArchivists in the United Kingdom have unearthed a rare copy of the U.S. Declaration of Independence nearly 250 years after it was seized by British sailors during the American Revolutionary War. A volunteer at the National Archives in London reportedly spotted the document, thought to have been taken during the capture of a U.S. vessel off the coast of Spain in December 1776, while reviewing records earlier in May. “I found this folded sheet, and there it was,” Michael Scurr, the volunteer, said. “I’ve never seen anything like this.” Graham Moore, who works as a historian at the archives, called it a “very rare find” and added that “there are very small numbers for all the different early printings.” The document itself is thought to be just one of 11 surviving copies printed in New Hampshire weeks after the original Declaration was signed in Philadelphia. News of its discovery comes one day before the 250th anniversary of the occasion.

Summer is officially here, which means your schedule is probably brimming with backyard barbecues, vacation dinners, ice cream outings, and impromptu happy hours for the next couple of months. While these warm-weather (and often food-focused) festivities are fun, they can make it a little more challenging to navigate digestive sensitivities. If foods like garlic, onions, dairy, legumes, or wheat tend to leave you feeling bloated or uncomfortable, Fodzyme may be worth adding to your travel bag before your next food-filled adventure.
Designed for the roughly 35 million Americans living with IBS or FODMAP (fermentable carbohydrates like fructans and lactose that are difficult for the small intestine to absorb) sensitivity, Fodzyme is a clinically vetted digestive enzyme powder formulated to help break down common FODMAP carbohydrates (including fructans, GOS, and lactose) that are often associated with digestive symptoms such as bloating, gas, abdominal discomfort, constipation, and diarrhea.

Unlike conventional digestive enzyme capsules and tablets, Fodzyme is sprinkled directly onto your meal before eating, allowing the enzymes to begin breaking down FODMAPs before they’re consumed. The proprietary blend includes fructan hydrolase, an enzyme that targets fructans found in foods like garlic, onions, and wheat, alongside alpha-galactosidase for beans and legumes and lactase for dairy.
Available in both a 60-serving Home Kit and convenient single-serve On-the-Go packets, Fodzyme is designed to make eating out, traveling, and special occasions a little less… uncomfortable. The powder format also sets it apart from many digestive enzyme supplements on the market, as it’s formulated to work directly on food before ingestion rather than after you’ve swallowed a capsule. If digestive discomfort has you thinking twice before ordering your favorite pasta, pizza, garlic bread, or ice cream this summer, it’s time to give sprinkle-on-anything Fodzyme a try.

Tunisia’s nightmare World Cup has been made even worse by a doping scare after eight players tested positive for traces of a banned substance. The squad returned atypical findings for clenbuterol, a drug banned by the World Anti-Doping Agency that can relax airways and has also been abused by bodybuilders to reduce fat while preserving muscle. Several of the players reportedly compete in the United Kingdom. But investigators concluded the positive tests were more likely than not caused by contaminated meat consumed while the team was based in Mexico, rather than any attempt to enhance performance. The players’ clubs have been informed, and they are unlikely to face disciplinary action. The results came in over a tournament that had already unraveled for Tunisia. The North African side fired its head coach after just one match before suffering heavy defeats to Sweden, Japan, and the Netherlands. The explanation has precedent. Clenbuterol has historically been used as a growth promoter in livestock in some countries, including Mexico. During the 2011 CONCACAF Gold Cup, five Mexican players tested positive, but investigators later attributed the results to contaminated meat and cleared them of wrongdoing.

Former NFL linebacker Keith Mitchell has died at 51, according to an announcement by Texas A&M athletics on Thursday. No cause of death was disclosed. Mitchell signed with the New Orleans Saints as an undrafted free agent in 1997 and spent five seasons with the franchise, earning Pro Bowl honors in 2000. He later played for the Houston Texans in 2002 and the Jacksonville Jaguars in 2003 before retiring. Across 94 NFL games, Mitchell recorded 408 tackles and 19.5 sacks. In a statement, the New Orleans Saints said they were “saddened to learn of the passing of team legend Keith Mitchell,” noting that he “beat the odds” to make the roster after being signed as an undrafted free agent. Texas A&M inducted Mitchell into its Athletics Hall of Fame in 2015. Mitchell’s NFL career ended after he suffered a spinal injury during a 2003 game that left him paralyzed. He later embraced yoga and wellness, crediting the practice with saving his life, and published The Mindfulness Mastery Playbook late last year.

Authorities have confirmed the cause of death for a 24-year-old woman who died on board a Carnival cruise ship in California. The Los Angeles County Medical Examiner said the deceased, Briana Miller, had been killed by some form of blunt impact and that it had been a suicide. The incident was first reported in April, when it emerged that Miller had fallen from the balcony of her bedroom aboard the Carnival Firenze and entered the water as the vessel traveled near the island of Santa Catalina off the coast of Southern California. She is understood to have been vacationing on the ship with her relatives. “Carnival’s Care Team is supporting the guest’s family, and our thoughts and prayers are with them and their loved one,” a spokesperson for the cruise line said at the time. The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department has previously told reporters that the matter was referred to the FBI for investigation.

‘Deadliest Catch’ Narrator Sues Discovery for More Than $2 Million
An American television host and narrator is suing the Discovery Channel over alleged unpaid narration fees for the reality series Deadliest Catch. Mike Rowe, 64, best known for Dirty Jobs, has filed a $2 million lawsuit alleging the network failed to honor a “pay-or-play” 2020 agreement that would pay him $40,000 per episode, as well as compensation for episodes he did not narrate. According to court filings first reported by the New York Post, Discovery Talent Services (DTS) was sued by Rowe and his production company, Lab Rat, for breach of contract. The suit claims the agreement was not upheld for Deadliest Catch spin-offs in which Rowe was not retained as narrator. “Because DTS exercised its choice not to use Rowe as a Narrator in at least 51 episodes of “Deadliest Catch” spinoffs, Lab Rat is entitled to a payment of at least $2.04 million,” the lawsuit said. Rowe and Discovery reportedly held discussions prior to the lawsuit being filed, during which Discovery argued that the “pay-or-play” clause only applies when it chooses to include a narrator in an episode, meaning it would not owe payment if it decides not to hire a narrator for that episode. Rowe has narrated the series since 2005. The Daily Beast has reached out to Warner Bros. Discovery for comment.

A Los Angeles man has admitted sending a fake ransom note to the family of Savannah Guthrie’s abducted mother. Derrick Callella, 42, sent text messages to the family of Nancy Guthrie, 84, demanding a bitcoin ransom in the days after she went missing from her home in Tucson, Arizona, on Feb. 1. The incident came after Today show host Savannah Guthrie and her siblings made a desperate public plea for their mother’s safe return in early February. Nancy’s daughter, Annie Guthrie, and her son-in-law, Tommaso Cioni, received a text that read: “Did you get the bitcoin we’re [sic] waiting on our end for the transaction.” Investigators traced the phone number and IP address associated with the message to Callella’s residence and email account, leading to his arrest. Callella will be sentenced on Sept. 10 and faces a maximum sentence of two years’ imprisonment, a $250,000 fine, or both. The guilty plea comes the same week that claims emerged that none of the ransom notes sent to the family were genuine, with the FBI’s Phoenix office pushing back, saying that while “some have been deemed to be extortion attempts without legitimacy,” others remain under investigation as potentially “legitimate.”

A nasty parasite that causes people to suffer watery and “explosive” diarrhea has affected people across the country. Cyclosporiasis, which can be acquired when people eat or drink contaminated food or water, has affected more than 170 people in the state of Michigan, while the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has reported that 20 people have been hospitalized nationwide as of June 16. However, the figures are outdated, with the CDC warning that the “true number of people sick with cyclosporiasis was likely higher” than those reported. Health officials in Michigan gave their own update and have found dozens more cases of cyclosporiasis since June 22. The spike of cases in Michigan is of particular concern, as the state typically identifies around 50 cases a year. The CDC said there is no evidence of a “single, multistate Cyclospora” outbreak linking all cases of the parasite. Investigations to identify potential clusters and sources of the nationwide illness are underway. In addition to watery diarrhea, common symptoms of cyclosporiasis include loss of appetite, cramping, fatigue, and nausea. Less common symptoms include flu-like symptoms, low-grade fever, and vomiting.
