Bloomberg Ordered to Pay $356,000 to Singapore Ministers in Defamation Case

A Singapore high court ordered Bloomberg News and reporter Low De Wei to jointly pay S$460,000 (US$355,734) in damages to two government ministers after an article was found to be defamatory. Each minister receives S$230,000, split between S$170,000 in general damages and S$60,000 in aggravated damages. Bloomberg's editor-in-chief John Micklethwait defended the reporting, saying the ministers imposed "an extremely strained meaning" on a solid story.

Does the Singapore court ruling threaten press freedom?

Poland's NFZ to Spend Extra PLN 1.2bn on Obstetrics, Oncology and Child Psychiatry

Poland's Agency for Health Technology Assessment and Tarification has recommended that the National Health Fund (NFZ) increase its spending by PLN 1.2 billion this year, focusing on obstetrics, oncology and child psychiatric care. The NFZ also wants to incentivise hospitals to offer anaesthesia during natural childbirth. The new reimbursement tariff aims to improve the quality and accessibility of care in these areas.

Should the NFZ fund anaesthesia for all natural childbirths?

Twitter/X turns 20 and is labelled the internet's top source of disinformation

Twitter launched publicly on 15 July 2006, celebrating its 20th anniversary this week. After Elon Musk's takeover, it was rebranded as X in 2023. EU and international institutions now label it the internet's primary source of disinformation.

Should the EU more strictly regulate X over disinformation?

Rents rise ahead of summer but Gdańsk still cheaper than a year ago

June brought rental price increases across almost all of Poland, according to Otodom Analytics data. The seasonal shift of properties to short-term holiday lets in the Tricity area immediately pushed up asking prices. Despite this, rental listings in Gdańsk remain lower than both one and two years ago.

Should short-term rentals be more strictly regulated to stabilise long-term rental prices?

China's Tianwen-2 reaches asteroid after one billion kilometres

China's Tianwen-2 probe has closed to within 20 kilometres of a small asteroid after travelling one billion kilometres through space and begun detailed scientific study. Scientists hope to determine whether the object is a regular asteroid or a fragment of the Moon orbiting close to Earth. The mission's findings could shed light on the history of the Solar System.

Will China become the leader in asteroid exploration ahead of other space agencies?

Sliced fruit placed in the garden keeps slugs away from vegetable beds

Slugs can be lured away from vegetable beds by placing slices of citrus fruit — such as grapefruit or orange — around the garden. The method is cheap, simple and requires no chemical pesticides. Slugs attracted by the scent gather around the fruit, leaving crops undisturbed.

Are natural slug-deterrent methods as effective as chemical pesticides?

Justified revived after 8 years — Timothy Olyphant's neo-Western returned in 2023

FX's Justified, starring Timothy Olyphant as U.S. Marshal Raylan Givens, ran for six seasons and helped popularise the neo-Western genre on television. Eight years after it ended, the show was revived in 2023 as Justified: City Primeval, which has since established its own shared universe.

Does Justified: City Primeval match the quality of the original series?

"Sex care": a new book guides women to rediscover sexual pleasure

In the book "Sex care. Droga do kobiecej przyjemności," a 42-year-old woman named Karolina comes to a therapist wanting to feel more pleasure during sex, only to realise she cannot define what pleasure actually means to her. The published excerpt illustrates how many women are disconnected from their own intimate needs. The book explores the path to female sexual self-awareness.

Should female sexual education be discussed more openly in mainstream media?

Dolly Parton has revealed that "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You," two of her most iconic songs, were written on the same day — or at least within a few remarkably productive days. Both tracks became country classics, with "I Will Always Love You" later achieving global fame through Whitney Houston's cover version. Parton described it as one particularly "good writing day."

EU launches €5 bn fund to stop tech giants from fleeing to the US

Europe's problem is not a lack of innovation but an inability to scale companies, argue EU Commissioner Ekaterina Zachariewa and Novo Holdings CEO Kasim Kutay. A new €5 billion EU fund, described as the largest such instrument in history, aims to keep promising European startups from relocating to the US in search of capital. The goal is to create the conditions for homegrown tech giants to emerge and grow on the continent.

Will the EU's €5 bn fund be enough to stop European startups from moving to the US?

Rate cuts boost mortgage capacity – average family can borrow 10,000 zł more

July mortgage offers show a clear increase in estimated borrowing capacity for Polish households. A model family with a net income of 15,000 zł can now borrow an average of 10,000 zł more than in June. The improvement follows banks cutting their mortgage rates in response to interest rate reductions.

Will interest rate cuts effectively revive the mortgage market?
