...from 1973 to 1995. Children were followed from age 10 until their death, their departure from Denmark, the onset of schizophrenia or the end of the study period in 2005. Researchers determined also whether the birth mothers had suffered extreme stress - due either to the death or illness (heart attack, cancer or stroke) of a first-degree relative - six months prior to and at any time during pregnancy. The data showed that women who experienced a close family member's death during the first three months of pregnancy had a 67% increased risk of having a child who would develop...

In his statement, Abbas coupled his condemnation of the Dimona attack with harsh criticism of an Israeli army raid in the West Bank.

...Gaza, militants passed out flowers and candy at street corners to celebrate what one militant leader described as "the heroic act" at Dimona. A spokesman for Hamas, the Islamic militant group, which controls the Palestinian enclave, said that the attack was "a natural reaction to months of killing" of Palestinians by the Israeli forces. Various organizations also rushed to lay claim for the bombing. Israeli authorities have not yet identified the bombers, but members of two groups - the Popular Front for the Liberation of Palestine (PFLP) and the al-Aqsa Brigades - jointly claimed credit for the suicide bombing and released...
