|
|
|
Hong Kong is at risk of splitting up into two economies. On one end, Hong Kong's financial, professional and business services are being revived on the back of China's resurgent, tech-driven economy and the shifting balance of power between Washington and Beijing.

I grew up on American food. Trust me, it′s the last thing Europe needs | Alexander Hurst (The Guardian)
|

The EU is under pressure to strike a trade deal with Trump, but an influx of mass-produced, low-quality food must be off the tableAll over European media, the take seems to be similar – that the EU is “under pressure” to conclude some sort of deal with the US in order to avoid Donald Trump's 9 July deadline for the unilateral imposition of broad tariffs. What might be on the table in the attempt to secure that? In early May, the EU trade commissioner, Maroš Šefčovič, was already suggesting that a deal to increase purchases from the US could include agricultural products – a possibility that seems to remain even though Šefčovič later clarified that the EU was not contemplating changing its health or safety standards.Since I have failed to Abba (“Always be boldly acronyming”) and don't have anything as good as Taco (“Trump always chickens out”) – coined by the Financial Times columnist Robert Armstrong – at the ready, I'll simply reach for the easy line: opening the door even s...

Cannabis, Smoked Or Eaten, Linked To Tobacco-Like Blood Vessel Harm
Authored by George Citroner via The Epoch Times (emphasis ours),

Both smoking and eating cannabis caused the blood vessel linings to not work as effectively, even in otherwise healthy adults who never used tobacco, researchers at the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) found.
“The blood vessels don't seem to care whether the smoke is from tobacco or cannabis,” study author Matthew L. Springer, professor of medicine at the Cardiovascular Research Institute at UCSF, told The Epoch Times. The research shows cannabis users had blood vessel function “very similar” to tobacco smokers in previous studies, he noted.
