Every year, doctors face a tricky puzzle: who should get extra heart protection before problems start. New guidelines now say doctors should use math—not guesswork—to pick the right treatments.

Canada’s latest hate speech bill, C-9, removes the religious exemption that used to protect people who shar
The Sagrada Família in Barcelona has finally reached its highest point, with the last big piece—a cross on the central tower—placed in February. After more than a century of construction, the church now stands 566 feet tall, close to the height of a five‑story building. The ceremony will be led by P
