Uterus is a vacant beefy organ which is positioned in the female pelvis between the bladder and rectum. The ovaries make the eggs which travel through the fallopian tubes. As soon as the egg leaves the ovary, it is able to fertilize and implant itself in the lining of the uterus. The foremost and major function of the uterus is to feed the growing fetus prior to birth.
INVERTED UTERUS OR RETROVERTED UTERUS
Inverted uterus, also called as retroverted uterus, tipped uterus or tilted uterus, is a reverse position of the uterus. It is a naturally-occurring variant on how the uterus is located in the abdominal cavity. In the case of inverted uterus or retroverted uterus, it is actually lying on top of the bladder; it lies to either side of it instead of being at its normal position. An inverted uterus or titled uterus trips back towards the spinal column instead of belly button. However, cervix remains at its place, either at top or end of the vaginal canal. But this causes fundus of the uterus to be in an untraditional direction.

Police started that they at about 3:30 a.m. an inebriated driver got his 2000 Ferrari stuck on a set of railroad tracks on Howe Drive in south Sherman. The driver, 48 years old Jeff Sabold, asked the authorities for help. The police told Jeff Sabold to leave the car just before the train was abut to approach and hit it turning the car into total rubble.
The Police told the possible reason of the car being stuck could be low ground clearance. Sgt. Bruce Dawsey from the Sherman Police Department told.

Your judgment is impaired, you not only put yourself in danger, but you put everyone who is in reach of your vehicle in danger to include trains,"
Luckily nobody got hurt in the whole accident while Jeff Sabold was detained for driving under the influence of liquor. Further charges are awaited.
