HPV protection for older women: Gardisil, the cervical cancer vaccine made by Merck for girls and women up to age 25, has been shown to be effective in preventing signs of the disease in women over age 26 as well. “Merck will ask U.S. regulators by the end of the year to expand use of Gardasil to women through age 45.”

Pink and Blue: CNN anchorwoman Nancy Grace and husband David Linch welcomed twins on Sunday. After checking several sources, it isn’t clear when the actual due date was, but the babies were born early by c-section because of a pulmonary edema that Nancy developed . John David was 5 pounds 1 ounce, and Lucy Elizabeth was 2 pounds 15 ounces. According to Dad David, “The babies are doing fine. Our little girl is doing just as well as her brother despite her weight –- and mom is doing great.”
