After reviewing a slew of studies finding a connection between meat-eating and cancer, the World Health Organization has announced that processed meats cause cancer, and red meat probably does, too.
The winter solstice marks the shortest day and longest night of the year. In the Northern Hemisphere, it occurs when the sun is directly over the Tropic of Capricorn, which is located at 23.5Â° south of the equator and runs through Australia, Chile, southern Brazil, and northern South Africa.
The term solstice can also be used in a broader sense, as the day when this occurs. The day of the solstice has either the most sunlight of the year (summer solstice) or the least sunlight of the year (winter solstice) for any place other than the equator.
