He's always beating up the three-year-olds

Article Abstract:

Cheshire education authority acknowledges that bullying is occurring among infants at nursery school and their child protection officer Mrs Kath Tyldesley counsels aggressive children. Cardiff Institute of Higher Education has conducted research into bullying and Mr Delwyn Tattum, reader in education, found that poor supervision ratios in nurseries, poor example of parents and older children's behaviour and watching television and videos were reasons for this behaviour. Modern children have less chance to learn how to interact with others. Some schools have observed an inability to play correctly. St Philip's primary school, Warrington, has organised better playtime supervision and a playground committee of children to reduce bullying.

Going to war in a taxi

Article Abstract:

Members of the Manchester Hackney Co-operative, which represents 400 of the city's black-cab taxi-drivers, pretend they are customers of pirate taxis to entrap them. Private-hire cars, which must be pre-booked by law, are not insured for passengers hailing them in the street. The Co-operative has brought 148 prosecutions against unlawful drivers. The Manchester Private Hire Association represents 4,500 drivers who wish them to react more strongly.

From the South Seas, bliss

Article Abstract:

Rheumatoid arthritis can be treated with three species of coral from New Caledonia in the south Pacific. Coral wedges fuse joints, straighten bent limbs and replace shattered bones. Coral, the external skeleton of a marine animal, has a similar structure to bone. In these operations, human blood vessels invade the holes in coral and new bone forms. Eventually the coral disappears.
