Yes you read that correctly!

Scientists from Northwestern University have developed a bioprosthetic ovary using 3D-printing technology and produced living, breathing mouse offspring from them.

While the study is focused on mice, it is targeted towards women who survived childhood cancer and may not have otherwise had the chance to have children due to the cancer treatment’s damage to their ovaries.

Inkling girl, on Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, gesture has been changed as her original move was seen to be ‘offensive’.

The gesture, performed by the Inkling girl, where she grabbed her bicep with her hand has been removed in the latest version of Mario Kart.

Nintendo simply didn’t realise that it meant something completely different and somewhat offensive in Europe to what it does in Japan.

Nintendo Original Gesture

Places in Europe, such as Italy, the gesture with the hand on the bicep means “Up yours” or “**** you!”

For Nintendo this is not a good look, so the gesture had to be changed.
