Brainless Bodies, Hooters' Family Makeover, and a Pregnant Bank Robber

The Headlines:

• Hooters Is Trying to Go Family-Friendly in a $300 Million Rebrand

• A Pregnant Woman Pulled Off Two Bank Heists—And Tricked Her Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver

Scientists Are Working on "Brainless Bodies" for Organ Transplants

In what sounds like a sci-fi plot, researchers are exploring the creation of bodyoids—human bodies grown in artificial wombs without brains or consciousness. The goal? To create a sustainable source of organs for transplants and a new way to test medications without using live humans or animals.

While the concept raises serious ethical concerns, supporters argue that it could eliminate long transplant waitlists and revolutionize medicine by offering non-sentient test subjects. Scientists are proposing small-scale tests on animals first to see if the process is viable.

Hooters’ $300 Million Makeover: Less “Hoot,” More Family-Friendly

Hooters is in serious financial trouble, with around $300 million in debt and 40 locations shutting down last year. Their latest survival strategy? A family-friendly makeover they're calling "Re-Hooterization"—but some might call it "De-Hooterization."

The plan includes:

• A stronger push toward a family dining atmosphere (yes, Hooters has a kids' menu).

• A menu overhaul with fresher ingredients.

• A shift away from the “Hooters Girls” image that made them famous.

Will this work, or will it alienate the brand's core audience? Time will tell.

Pregnant Woman Pulls Two Bank Heists, Tricks Husband Into Being the Getaway Driver

In one of the wildest crime stories of the year, a woman in Poland robbed two banks while eight months pregnant—and convinced her husband to unknowingly be her getaway driver.

Anna A., 37, got hooked on gangster movies during her pregnancy and decided to live out the fantasy. She told her husband she had a baby doctor appointment, then went inside the banks and pulled off armed heists.

She was eventually caught, gave birth in prison, and just lost her appeal. Hollywood, take notes.
