Transplanted Mouse Womb Bears Fruit, Swedes Say. Bad headline of the day. No, the mouse didn't have a litter of lemons or an octuplet of oranges.

Meanwhile the other odd headline, "Anyone can sparkle in the afterlife", gets odder once you read it. Using some of your ashes (after cremation of course) they'll turn you into a diamond. Maybe they figure it's cool since a diamond is so clean and pure looking. To me it doesn't seem much different than, say, mixing the ashes with Sherwin William's finest and putting a fresh coat of dearly departed on the house.
