Grandparents may pose cancer risk to children

    A grandmother feeds a biscuit to her granddaughter. File pic Grandparents pose a potential health risk to children and may even put them at risk of cancer, scientists say. The increased risk comes from the greater likelihood that grandmothers and grandfathers will spoil youngsters with treats. They are also more likely to expose them to second-hand tobacco smoke - a major cause of cancer, researchers say. Despite meaning well, grandparents were found to have a harmful effect on their grandchildren's health.

Mad Brexit date law faces revolt

    British Prime Minister Theresa May is heading for a showdown with her own Tory party over what one member of Parliament called her mad plan to write the date of Brexit into British law.

The night's action triggered speculation of a coup, but the military's supporters praised it as a bloodless correction. Armed soldiers in armored personnel carriers stationed themselves at key points in Harare, while Zimbabweans formed long lines at banks in order to draw the limited cash available, a routine chore in the country's ongoing financial crisis. People looked at their phones to read about the army takeover and others went to work or to shops. In an address to the nation after taking control of the Zimbabwe Broadcasting ...
