Certain ants are ensuring their offspring become reproductive queens rather than sterile workersFar from being a model of social co-operation, the ant world is riddled with cheating and corruption - and it goes all the way to the top, according to scientists from the Universities of Leeds and Copenhagen.
Ants have always been thought to work together for the benefit of the colony rather than for individual gain. But Dr Bill Hughes from Leeds ' Faculty of Biological Sciences has found evidence to shatter this illusion.

(AP) -- Authorities in the Austrian city of Salzburg say a measles outbreak has spread to more than 130 people, mostly schoolchildren.
Officials, in a statement posted on Salzburg's Web site Wednesday, say the epidemic began in a school and has since spread to 13 others located both in the city and the surrounding area. Health Minister Andrea Kdolsky and Salzburg Governor Gabi Burgstaller are urging people to get vaccinated in order to contain the viral disease that is highly contagious and spread primarily through the respiratory system.
///////////////////////WELLNESS How to use pennies to track what you eatIf you have trouble keeping track of what you are eating every day, then use pennies. Divide your daily number of calories by 100 and that would be the number of pennies you need. Make a "menu" of items you commonly eat and their "cost": 1 penny for 100 calories (round the calories to the nearest 100). 1400 calories per day would be 14 pennies. A 200 calorie serving of chocolate would be 2 pennies. When your pennies are gone, you are done eating for the day!
