DEAR ABBY: I have cancer. I have been expecting to be diagnosed with it since I was a teen. It is my family’s disease. My mother is 100 and still has her faculties, but she is frail. I have shared the diagnosis with my children, and I assume they told my grandchildren. My husband and my best friend know of my condition. The doctors say that because I caught the cancer very early, they expect a cure and are not just prolonging my life. My mother has been asking for my help, but I cannot take a chance on flying…

The Off Campus cast has spoken up after some viewers had concerns about their age differences.

ANKARA, Turkey — The US is prepared for resumed attacks on Iran to last days or even weeks should Tehran continue its strikes in the Strait of Hormuz and beyond, as President Trump is resolved not to let the “sick” regime go unchecked. Trump’s restarted military campaign is being described internally by some administration officials as a “bitch slap” to the Islamic Republic — after Trump in May called airstrikes a “love tap” when Tehran previously attacked ships in the key waterway.  How long the bombing campaign lasts is based heavily on Iran’s response, sources told The Post. On his…

INGLEWOOD, Calif. — Quarterfinals often are remembered for breathtaking goals. Spain and Belgium might be remembered for the saves.  Friday night’s FIFA World Cup showdown at SoFi Stadium features two of the finest goalkeepers of their generation — Spain’s Unai Simón and Belgium’s Thibaut Courtois — in a matchup that could prove every bit as decisive as the battles between Lamine Yamal, Nico Williams, Kevin De Bruyne and Romelu Lukaku at the other end of the field.  Spain’s run through the tournament has been built on control. Possession suffocates opponents, and nobody is better at it than the Spaniards. Simón…

Benjamin Hovland, appointed by Trump in his first term, was forced to resign. A fourth commissioner at the agency, a Trump appointee, departed in April.  The terminations leave the bipartisan EAC with no commissioners and an uncertain future. It’s unclear if…
