• Couple Pleads for Return of Stillborn Son's Stolen Ashes

    A Georgia couple is pleading for the return of a silver box stolen from the bedroom of their Cobb County home, as the box holds the ashes of their stillborn son.

    Jody and Haley Hughey lost their only child, Caleb, when he was stillborn in 2008.

    "We spent some time with him before we let him go, and then had him cremated," said Jody Hughey, describing through tears the silver "memento box" with an angel and "Caleb Ean Hughey, October 16, 2008," engraved on the lid. "I realize there are people in Oklahoma going through more than us right now, but for us, it's a personal hell."

    Since Caleb's death, Haley Hughey has struggled to become pregnant again.

    "He is only our only son," said her husband, choking up at the thought of his son's stolen ashes. "It's devastating for both of us. But for my wife, this is everything. She can't have the future she wants, and now she doesn't have a way to hold on to the past."

    The Hughey home was robbed Monday while the couple was at work. The thief – or thieves

  • Katie Holmes, Luke Kirby More Than Co-Stars?

    Katie Holmes certainly wouldn't be the first to find romance on set.

    They were seen strolling together, with grins on their faces, prompting some reports to suggest life might be imitating art.

    Reps for both stars did not immediately respond to ABCNews.com's request for comment.

    Holmes and Kirby play a manic-depressive couple who meet at a psychiatric hospital and fall in love in the Spike Lee-produced romantic drama. They were seen earlier Tuesday laughing and holding hands, while getting soaked in a park fountain during one romantic scene.

  • There's one body part that pregnant Kim Kardashian may not want to give up after birth: her lips.

    The reality star tweeted a photo of her swollen lips, along with, "My pregnancy lips are outta control #IGuessNotABadProblemToHave."

    Kardashian recently admitted that she has struggled to stay confident about her body with her growing curves and people's opinions about them.

    Cork, Ireland, already has the butter museum. But Albany, Ga., might soon have the next-best thing: The Paula Deen Museum.

    The Albany Herald reported that the love-her-or-love-to-hate-her Southern chef's museum would be housed in her childhood home. The venture has been led by B.J. Fletcher, an Albany businesswoman, and Deen's former husband, Jimmy Deen.

    "It just takes my breath away that folks back in Albany would consider doing something like this," Deen told The Herald. "I'm just trying to wrap my head around this incredible honor. I would want something like this to be a symbol of hope for people looking to make their lives better."

    Paula Deen's rep did not respond to ABC News' request for comment.

  • Dramatic scenes of tornado-wrought devastation and wrecked properties in Oklahoma this week are another potent reminder to renters and homeowners all across the country to take an inventory of everything they own before a storm hits.

    It can make a big difference if your household suffers major damage.

    " Go through your house with your smartphone," suggests Kimberly Lankford, contributing editor of Kiplinger's Personal Finance magazine. "Smartphones make this so much easier. Just take pictures and video of everything, because if you do have a claim you don't have to piece together everything yourself."

    Smartphone apps can help you compile a complete list. "There's one called knowyourstuff.org that makes it really easy to get that list of everything," says Lankford.

  • Customers of the SuperAmerica gas station in Waconia, Minn., about 35 miles southwest of Minneapolis, were in for a treat to see discounted gas prices and tobacco products sold at half off over the weekend, not realizing that the new station owner was an alleged fraudster who paid for the station with a fake check.

    The previous owner, Husein Sarameh, 51, said he sold the station in early April for $945,000. The buyer paid $203,000 for the down payment with a check, which Sarameh said bounced the next day.

    But the new buyer, found through a broker, had already begun operating the business. Sarameh said his lawyers advised him he could not evict the new owner without a court order.

    On Friday and Saturday, the new owner began selling discounted gas and tobacco and grocery products, some at half-off, as first reported by ABC affiliate KSTP.

    Sarameh, who owns two other gas stations in a nearby town, said he was shocked by the brazen act of

  • Look who's still, well, "Friends."

    In a new promo for today's episode of "Ellen," Jennifer Aniston, who will co-host the talk show for a day, needs advice and a few "dumb jokes." So, naturally, she decides to visit the home of her former "Friends" co-star Matthew Perry, who seems very confused by her visit.

    "What? What are you talking about? We used to walk into each others' apartments all the time," she says, when he asks her to call before showing up next time. "We're friends!"

    "That was a TV show," he responds. "We actually haven't seen each other in a really long time. Like, eight years!"

    After calling Perry "David" (a reference to David Schwimmer, who played Ross on the NBC sitcom), the mistaken identities continue when Courteney Cox appears from inside the house, and shrieks, "Lisa [Kudrow]?"

    "It's Jennifer!" Aniston replies.

    To find out how Justin Theroux factors into the conversation, and what two other very famous women sneak out of Perry's house, watch the
