(CBS) You don't have to be beautiful to birth a beautiful baby. At least that's the thinking behind a new virtual sperm and egg bank launched by BeautifulPeople.com, an online dating service for good-looking people. The "fertility introduction service" aims to link wanna-be parents - handsome or homely - with good-looking sperm and egg donors who have registered with the site.

At 600 pounds, Donna Simpson may already have the title of world's fattest mom under her belt. And though she has recently disavowed her desire to become a half-ton woman, the 42-year-old resident of Old Bridge, N.J., is anything but abashed. She has recently become a YouTube star and likes to show off her generous proportions on supersizedbombshells.com, a website created for people who can't get enough of the big girls.

(CBS) Seven-year-old Kathleen Edward knows what it's like to die from Huntington's Disease. Last year, the debilitating disorder, which progressively destroys the mind and control of the body, took her mother's life. But the disease is not her only nemesis. Kathleen is also the victim of a horrifying cyberbullying attack and the perpetrator is a 33-year-old neighbor, Jennifer Petkov.

Huge props to Aina for the most thorough piece on The Source’s troubles to date. Among the warning signs–estimates of the magazine’s ad pages have it at less than half the amount booked in 2000, and estimates of its readership have it at half the amount it was just two years ago. Aina’s piece is wonderfully written as well: “When 50 Cent himself showed up in the Hot 97 studio of Funkmaster Flex on a recent Thursday-evening shift, the pair spent precious airtime stoking the feud. ‘I gotta ask you about this wack rapper Benzino,’ Funkmaster Flex said, referring to The Source co-owner Raymond Scott by his performing name. People really do get hurt for less beef than this, especially around Hot 97, where broadcast taunts have preceded flying bullets, and especially around The Source, which has picked countless fights since its birth in 1988. But given the number of hits they’re taking–tens of millions in credit claims and lawsuits, arrests, even murder charges against key staffers–it’s amazing that Scott, fellow co-owner David Mays, and rookie editor Dasun Allah can put out a magazine at all. Just keeping track of the major court cases advancing this month is a task.”

The Lesbian Cancer Initiative at the Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual & Transgender Community Center just wrapped up the first eight-week cycle of a new group therapy session for lesbian survivors of cancer—the only group of its kind in New York. Advocates say it’s about time New York caught up with Chicago, D.C., Atlanta, and other cities that long ago recognized the need for specialized resources, given that lesbians may have a particularly high risk for developing breast and gynecological cancers.

(CBS) Caring for dementia patients can be difficult, but that's no excuse for pumping them full of antipsychotic drugs, said panelists at a recent Senate Aging Committee forum. Over-medication occurs far too often in those with Alzheimer's disease and other forms of dementia, panelists said, and as baby boomers get older, the problem will only worsen.

A Wyoming couple was jailed recently on federal charges of conspiracy to import ibogaine—an illegal hallucinogenic drug reputed to be a miracle cure for addiction—sending a wave through the so-called ibogaine underground. According to a DEA agent’s affidavit, Jack and Karen Hout spilled the beans about their plans to smuggle the drug from Switzerland to Wyoming via their condo in Belize when the feds raided their Wyoming home December 2.

Last August, Neal Chandler, Cleveland State's Creative Writing Program coordinator, got himself fired -- primarily for lying on his résumé. On two separate applications for the coveted Fulbright Fellowships, he called himself an "associate professor." But since Chandler's doctorate is in German, he was only a "lecturer" -- not a true member of the English department faculty.

In what some are describing as a new tactic employed by Haiti’s notorious national police to control the slums of Port-au-Prince, last week officers were seen distributing machetes to a group of residents in the impoverished neighborhood of Bel Air–setting them loose on their neighbors. Human rights groups have long accused the Haitian police of terrorizing poor neighborhoods believed to be power bases for exiled President Aristide ever since the February 2004 coup, and in the months leading up to the elections planned for this fall, activists say police oppression has increased.

For Kayla Small and Maggie Marcus, being roommates is truly living dangerously. The two college-age friends have a rare disease that means sitting side by side in a car, sharing a glass or indulging in a bar-side Generation Y-style kiss could put their lives at risk. Small and Marcus suffer from cystic fibrosis, a genetic disease that affects about 1 in 2,500 white Americans.

(CBS/AP) Doctors and aid groups are rushing to set up cholera treatment centers across Haiti's capital as officials warn that the disease's encroachment into the overcrowded city of Port-au-Prince will bring a surge in cases. Hundreds of people were already suspected of having cholera, suffering the disease's symptoms of fever and diarrhea while lying in hospital beds or inside shacks lining the putrid waste canals of Cite Soleil - one of the most dismal of the country's slums.

Haiti’s interim government, led by a prime minister hand-picked and hand-fed by the Bush administration, has seen fit to jail a potential presidential candidate. Father Gerard Jean-Juste, a Catholic priest, may be the only figure one large faction of the Fanmi Lavalas party could accept as a candidate in elections planned for this October and November.

Medical trials are necessary for the development of new medicines. However, certain requirements have to be met, including steps to ensure the right to health of children taking part in medical trials. These include, but are not limited to, obtaining the prior informed consent of either children or their legal guardians.

The nearly 300 volcano victims who fled the microscopic Caribbean island of Montserrat for safety in the U.S. nearly a decade ago now have two weeks to get out, says the Department of Homeland Security. After living here under Temporary Protected Status, most of them have built entire new lives here—with careers, marriages, and American-born children.

Could be. Therapists like Heide Banks say such thoughts - which she defines as "any thoughts that keep you locked in low self-esteem" - can do a number on your emotional and even physical health. That means, in many instances, that we can change the way we feel by changing the way we think. "If we actively shift our thoughts, we can change how we feel inside," New York psychologist Dr.

The American Medical Association has agreed to support proposed legislation that, some physicians say, could make make having a planned birth in one's home difficult, to virtually impossible. As of now, no actual legislation has been drawn up, but the AMA has agreed to back a measure called "Resolution 205," a request to support the American College of Obstetricians and Gynecologists' (ACOG) position that home births are not safe.
