    With rising divorce rates in the U.S., more and more children are being raised with a distorted view on love. It’s one thing to admit people fall out of love, yet, it’s another to tell little Jose daddy cheated on mommy with his secretary. In Parents Who Cheat, Dr. Ana Nogales explores the profound effects infidelity has on children.

    “Issues of trust, issues of shame, [and] issues of anger are very prevalent in children whose parents have been unfaithful,” she told On the Up.

    My grandma always talks about the good ol' days of L.A. transpo; when streetcars would take her from her humble East L.A. abode to the glamour that was shopping in downtown back in the day. I couldn't imagine people riding anything close to a street car in the 'hood I grew up in, let alone a subway. This area had long been among the most transit-dependent yet underserved in the city. Those modes of transportation were reserved for more well-off parts like the westside. Until this past weekend.

    THANKSGIVING_524x339.jpg

    The fourth Thursday in November is a great reason to get together with família, stuff your panza and talk crap about Tio Charlie who fell off the wagon again. Thanksgiving started out as an awkward dinner date between Native Americans and the people who stole their land. Today, it’s a day dedicated to being thankful for what you’ve got. Here at Sí TV, we are grateful for the opportunity to showcase Latinos—who make up only four percent of on-camera talent in the U.S.*—every day.

    Pedro Almodovar isn’t the only Latino director in love with curvy women in dire straits. Meet writer/director Sebastian Gutierrez and his new dramedy Women in Trouble. The film follows 10 women which include a porn star, a flight attendant, a psychiatrist, a masseuse, a bartender, and a pair of escorts as they encounter problemas. Aside from the Skinemax-esque sounding cast of characters, the film actually packs a wallop. Check out some of the actresses who star in Women in Trouble.

    Morning office talk has to be some of the best dialogue of the day; probably because everyone's not fully awake so words are unedited. Take this morning's On The Up editorial meeting for instance. Sammy Sosa's skin turning ten shades lighter was on rotation and everyone had an opinion about it.

    "He said it comes with fame," someone in the meeting explained. "The more famous you get, the more improvements you have to make. His skin was blotchy from being in the outfield too long and he had to even it out."

    Do you think Juan Valdez is looking for you because of your Starbucks addiction? If so, then you might have a bigger problem than Sammy Sosa has with his complexion. Recent studies claim that people who drink three cups of coffee may suffer from hallucinations. Yikes! 

    “Some people have hallucinations which they find frightening,” Durham University’s Simon Jones told England’s The Telegraph, “others say they often hear voices and it does not appear to affect their everyday lives.”

    1. James Marsden. The hunky actor has a penchant for blonde leading ladies (see Katherine Heigl in 27 Dresses) and unrealistic storylines (see X-Men).

    2. The Box is writer/director Richard Kelly’s latest project. Kelly also authored Donnie Darko, which was one of the films before Jake Gyllenhaal’s back was broken…ahem, we mean before he made Brokeback Mountain.
