Read previewA British auction house has been criticized after listing 18 human skulls from ancient Egypt. But experts have raised objections, and have asked for a review of laws around the sale of human remains. This latest episode offers a window into the strange trade in human remains, which is legal in many places worldwide. The shrunken head problemVan Broekhoven has had to grapple with the issue of handling human remains in museum collections.

☆ Bidding wars over apartments are more ferocious than ever — and they're here to stay

Yet one of the enduring legacies of the COVID-era housing market may be the proliferation of bidding wars for rentals. Bidding wars have periodically reared their ugly heads during overheated stretches in New York City's housing market. And while things have cooled down since the mania of 2022, in places where available rental inventory remains low, the bidding wars just won't die. Still, it's hard not to worry that we've opened Pandora's box when it comes to bidding wars. Bidding wars may feel distasteful, embarrassing, and unfairly favor those with the means to drive up already exorbitant asking rents.

☆ I entered a bidding war to land an apartment. It was way more brutal than I expected.

REUTERS/Benoit Tessier/Illustration/File PhotoDec 9 (Reuters) - Christmas came early for 165 people from the small northern Belgian village of Olmen who won 142,897,164 euros ($150.81 million) in the EuroMillions lottery this week, the biggest group win ever in Belgium. She said it was the first time in Belgium that such a big group had won this much. "Many winning customers were in disbelief at first," said storekeeper Wim Van Broekhoven who was as stunned as his wife when they heard the winning numbers. "We have had quite a few new customers since the big win, but no one in the village holds any grudges against the winners," Van Broekhoven said. EuroMillions is a draw game of the National Lottery, organised in coordination with lotteries from France, Britain, Spain, Portugal, Ireland, Austria, Switzerland and Luxemburg.
