Although 25-year-old Sara Ottoson was born without a uterus and is unable to reproduce, her 56-year-old mother, Eva, plans to donate her own womb in the hopes that Sara will be able to conceive.

Tanta Pharmaceuticals Inc. has voluntarily recalled its children's acetaminophen products after three reports of problems with the child-resistant caps, according to Health Canada.
“The child safety mechanism on some of the caps may not be locking properly and caps may open even in the locked position,” claimed the health agency in a press release last week. The worry is that children may accidently ingest the pills.
Australian actor Russell Crowe isn't known for his diplomacy. When one of his Twitter followers asked last week whether Crowe would get his newborn son circumcised, he let rip:

They may look harmless enough, but don't be fooled. Those bouncy inflatable castles and slides can be lethal. At a recent soccer tournament in Oceanside, New York, high winds sent three inflatable "bounce houses" flying, injuring 13. One woman suffered head and spinal injuries when a slide toppled her.
Mike Perniches, a father who ran to the rescue, said, “I never thought there would be any serious issues, any concerns with safety. But now, I’m like, forget it.”
