研究发现:改变爱犬饮食对地球的益处可能大于改变自身饮食

英国伦敦, 2026年2月11日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) - 高肉类、蛋类和乳制品的饮食会造成显著的环境成本。但最新研究揭示,在许多情况下,将爱犬的饮食调整为更可持续的方案,对地球环境和养殖动物产生的积极影响可能远大于改变人类自身饮食。兽医教授安德鲁·奈特在《动物》期刊发表的研究发现,平均每只狗每年饮食中消耗约13只农场陆生动物,而人类仅消耗9只——差距约达40%。这种差异主要源于犬类饮食中动物性成分占比更高(约34%),而人类饮食中该比例仅为19%。这些数据为全球平均值,各国存在差异。在美国等高收入国家,整体消耗量更高:当地人均年消耗24只养殖陆生动物,而犬类仅消耗20只,差距缩小至约20%。传统肉类宠物食品因此对环境和动物福利造成显著影响。然而,基于植物、微生物蛋白和培养肉的替代品正日益普及。如今在许多国家,纯植物(纯素)宠物食品已可通过线上零售商轻松购得。截至2026年初,已有14项研究和1项系统综述证实v,采用此类饮食的犬猫健康状况良好。但宠物食品必须由负责任的制造商生产,并全面补充营养以确保涵盖所有必需营养素。潜在效益极为可观。若全球宠物犬全面转为营养均衡的纯素饮食,每年可避免60亿陆生动物被宰杀。温室气体减排量将达英国年排放量的1.5倍,节省的粮食能量足以养活4.5亿人口——相当于欧盟总人口规模。这些数据基于2018年统计,鉴于犬类数量增长速度超过人类,当前潜在效益更为显著。通过分析数千名宠物饲养者的调查反馈,奈特还估算至少1.5亿只猫狗可切实转型为营养均衡的纯素饮食。但他指出,由于分析假设每户仅饲养一只宠物,实际数量可能高出数倍。该研究运用有效利他主义原则评估可持续宠物饮食方案——该哲学体系依据规模、忽视程度及可解决性对议题进行优先级排序,以实现效益最大化。研究发现可持续宠物饮食领域存在严重忽视:全球仅有约两名非宠物食品公司的全职研究者,且养殖动物权益运动年度预算中投入该领域的比例不足1%。奈特总结指出,植物性宠物饮食是减少养殖动物使用、改善粮食安全、应对气候与生物多样性挑战的强有力却被忽视的途径。他敦促动物与环境倡导者突破仅关注人类饮食的局限,探索更可持续的饮食模式。“颇具讽刺意味的是,”他坦言,“动物权益运动却普遍忽视了自身伴侣动物的饮食问题。”安德鲁·奈特教授a.knight@griffith.edu.au 来源:可持续宠物食品基金会 Copyright 2026 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

从美国移民与海关执法局(ICE)和海关与边境保护局(CBP)领导人首次在国会作证中得出的五个关键要点

(SeaPRwire) - 美国移民和海关执法局(ICE)和海关与边境保护局(CBP)的领导人在明尼阿波利斯致命枪击案后的首次监督听证会上,在国会面前为其机构的执法策略进行了辩护。此次听证会正值更广泛的预算僵局以及对联邦移民行动的审查日益严格之际。 ICE代理局长托德·莱昂斯(Todd Lyons)、CBP专员罗德尼·斯科特(Rodney Scott)和美国公民及移民服务局局长约瑟夫·埃德洛(Joseph Edlow)周二在众议院国土安全委员会作证,民主党人在听证会上敦促进行全面改革。 这三个机构的负责人还将于2月12日在参议院国土安全委员会作证。负责监管这三个机构的国土安全部长克里斯蒂·诺姆(Kristi Noem)预计将于3月3日在参议院司法委员会作证。 以下是议员们和公众从此次听证会上了解到的五件事。 新特工的培训时间缩短 民主党人就ICE特工的培训时长问题向莱昂斯施压,特别是在ICE加快招聘步伐的情况下。莱昂斯表示,没有任何执法经验的候选人在成为特工之前要接受三个月的培训。而有过相关经验的人现在只需在联邦培训中心完成47天的培训。该机构称,通常要成为一名遣返官员需要四个多月的培训时间。 在听证会上,莱昂斯还告诉委员会,特工在被部署到实地之前,会接受“防御战术和个人安全”以及宪法权利、法律和保护措施方面的培训。 CBP专员斯科特表示,CBP官员的培训时间表保持不变。据斯科特介绍,边境巡逻特工通常要在学院接受117天的培训,而CBP官员要接受103天的培训。 大多数特工仍未配备执法记录仪 在推动ICE改革的过程中,民主党人将为ICE特工配备执法记录仪作为核心要求。在委员会民主党领袖众议员本尼·汤普森(Bennie Thompson)的追问下,莱昂斯表示,在1.3万名ICE特工中,“约3000人”已在实地配备了执法记录仪,另外还有6000台记录仪正在部署中。莱昂斯坚称,所有ICE特工的执法记录仪录像都将公开。 斯科特表示,在6.7万名CBP特工中,“约1万人”的制服上配备了执法记录仪,并补充说,为了让CBP官员更加透明,需要更多资金,但一些民主党人对此表示反对。 罗德岛州众议员塞思·马加齐纳(Seth Magaziner)说:“在我们投票给你们任何一方更多资金之前,需要进行重大改革。你们的机构需要像其他执法机构一样行事。” ICE否认对美国公民进行监视 听证会上还提出了ICE是否对美国公民进行监视的问题。在全国范围内执法部门打击抗议者的行动中,有多人被列入国土安全部(DHS)和联邦调查局(FBI)用于追踪他们所谓的“国内恐怖分子”的监视名单。 莱昂斯否认存在任何追踪美国公民的此类数据库。当被问及缅因州一名ICE特工在社交媒体上威胁要将一名观察员列入“一个不错的小数据库”一事时,莱昂斯表示他“无法代表该特工发言”。 ICE局长排除辞职可能性 当加利福尼亚州众议员埃里克·斯瓦尔韦尔(Eric Swalwell)拿着一张在明尼苏达州被ICE带走的5岁男孩利亚姆·拉莫斯(Liam Ramos)的照片追问时,莱昂斯表示他不会辞职,并重申该机构的立场是拉莫斯的父亲“抛弃了”他。 在整个听证会上,莱昂斯和斯科特都以正在进行调查为由,拒绝回答任何关于古德(Good)和普雷蒂(Pretti)死亡的问题。他们也拒绝透露CBP或ICE有多少特工因不当行为被解雇或开除。 共和党人越来越接受民主党人的要求 此次听证会也是在白宫与民主党人就国土安全部资金问题进行谈判的背景下举行的。目前尚不清楚民主党人提出的一些关键要求,包括禁止特工戴口罩以及在进入私人财产前获得司法搜查令等,是否会被纳入最终法案。 但一些共和党人,如前国土安全委员会主席麦考尔(McCaul),呼应了民主党人提出的一些执法改革要求,包括安装执法记录仪、进入私人财产前获得搜查令以及取消流动巡逻。 他在听证会上表示:“流动巡逻应该在边境进行,而不是在我们的主要城市。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

美国商务部长证实,在他声称已断绝关系多年后,他曾到访爱泼斯坦的岛屿 Latest News

美国商务部长证实,在他声称已断绝关系多年后,他曾到访爱泼斯坦的岛屿

(SeaPRwire) - 商务部长周二证实,他和他的家人于2012年访问了已故性犯罪者杰弗里·爱泼斯坦的私人岛屿,尽管卢特尼克此前曾表示他已在数年前与爱泼斯坦断绝关系。 “我的妻子和我在一起,还有我的四个孩子和保姆。我还有另一对夫妇。他们也带着孩子在场,我们在岛上吃了午餐,”卢特尼克在参议院拨款小组委员会听证会上说。他说,他和他的家人正在度假,在岛上只停留了大约一个小时就离开了。 卢特尼克的言论出台之际,在司法部公布的与爱泼斯坦有关的记录显示商务部长与这位声名狼藉的金融家的关系比他承认的更为广泛之后,两党议员都呼吁他辞职。 卢特尼克周二表示,他已在司法部公开的文件中搜索了自己的名字,在最新发布的300多万页文件中有“大约10封电子邮件”将他与爱泼斯坦联系起来。 “我翻阅这些文件时毫无畏惧,因为我知道,我的妻子也知道,我在任何可能方面都绝对没有做错任何事,”他在听证会上说。 “我和他没有任何关系。我几乎和那个人没有任何来往。明白吗?”卢特尼克说。在回应来自马里兰州的民主党参议员克里斯·范霍伦的一系列质询时,卢特尼克说:“我没有什么可隐瞒的。绝对没有。” 这位商务部长曾是爱泼斯坦在曼哈顿上东区的邻居,他去年在“Pod Force One”播客节目中表示,在2005年访问这位金融家的联排别墅后,他觉得爱泼斯坦“令人厌恶”,此后他“从未与爱泼斯坦在社交、商业甚至慈善场合共处一室”。 然而,根据《纽约时报》的报道,司法部上个月末公布的文件包含了卢特尼克与爱泼斯坦之间至少长达13年的通信往来。两人或其助手之间的多次交流表明,在卢特尼克声称于2005年与这位金融家断绝关系之后,以及爱泼斯坦2008年因引诱未成年人卖淫被定罪之后,爱泼斯坦和卢特尼克仍在纽约和爱泼斯坦的加勒比海岛屿上共同参加社交活动。 “你完全歪曲了你与他关系的程度,对国会、对美国人民、对他卑鄙犯罪和掠夺行为的幸存者,”范霍伦周二对卢特尼克说。这位商务部长还面临来自特拉华州民主党参议员克里斯·孔斯和俄勒冈州民主党参议员杰夫·默克利的关于他与爱泼斯坦关系的质询。没有参议员指责卢特尼克有不当行为,但他们要求他对与这位已故性犯罪者的关系更加透明。 默克利敦促卢特尼克“对所有人完全坦诚和开放”,并“在必要时纠正记录”,同时他列出了司法部公开的文件中的几份文件,这些文件显示卢特尼克在2005年之后与爱泼斯坦有互动。 最新发布的文件中的电子邮件似乎显示卢特尼克计划于2012年12月访问爱泼斯坦位于美属维尔京群岛圣托马斯岛附近的岛屿小圣詹姆斯岛。 其他交流显示,这次访问标志着卢特尼克与爱泼斯坦多年来多次互动中的一次,表明两人计划于2011年5月见面喝酒,且卢特尼克于2015年11月邀请爱泼斯坦参加“与希拉里·克林顿的非常=亲密的筹款活动”,以及其他明显的个人和职业往来。 在有关公布的文件中卢特尼克与爱泼斯坦之间通信的报道之后,几位议员呼吁商务部长辞职,包括肯塔基州共和党众议员托马斯·马西(他共同起草了强制公布政府所有与爱泼斯坦有关文件的法律)、加利福尼亚州民主党参议员亚当·希夫,以及同样来自加利福尼亚州的民主党众议员罗伯特·加西亚。 “说真的,坦率地讲,他应该让总统轻松些,直接辞职,”马西周日对说。 “商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克就他与爱泼斯坦的关系向国家撒谎。现在我们了解到他们曾一起做生意。他不适合担任我们的商务部长。他应该辞职,”希夫次日在上说。 加西亚更进一步,呼吁如果卢特尼克不辞职就应该被解雇。 商务部一位发言人周一在一份给《时代》周刊的声明中表示:“这不过是传统媒体一次失败的企图,试图分散人们对政府成就的注意力,包括确保数万亿美元的投资、达成历史性贸易协议以及为美国工人而战。卢特尼克夫妇于2005年结识杰弗里·爱泼斯坦,在接下来的14年里与他互动非常有限。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

特朗普否认失败

(SeaPRwire) - 唐纳德·特朗普总统不惜一切代价、违背所有理性地否认失败。 就在上周,《纽约时报》报道称,特朗普已放弃向哈佛大学索要2亿美元付款的要求。当特朗普在持续谈判中明显失利后,他再次发起攻击,在Truth Social上发帖,向哈佛索要10亿美元,同时声称他“未来不想再与哈佛有任何瓜葛”。 没有人应该感到惊讶,因为这种出尔反尔反映了特朗普最根本的冲动之一:倾向于通过先发制人式拒绝的艺术来否认失败。换句话说,“不是你拒绝我;是我拒绝你。”或者,“你不能甩了我;是我要甩了你。” 在我们的书中,我们揭示了定义特朗普战略手册的十大权力支柱。通过揭露这些可预测的模式,我们展示了他如何运用其最喜爱的领导工具。先发制人地否认失败就是其中之一。 特朗普无法容忍被拒绝的现实。在他看来,必须总是由他来拒绝别人。这种先发制人地拒绝那些正在拒绝他的人的冲动,一直是特朗普职业生涯中最一贯的主线之一。模式很简单:当有人表现出犹豫、批评或即将离开的迹象时,特朗普就会声称结果是他的决定——并且常常加上侮辱,以重新将对方定义为从一开始就不值得他关注的人。 因此,当哈佛大学表示不愿接受特朗普提出的那份更便宜的协议时,特朗普会试图扭转这次拒绝,这完全在预料之中。特朗普试图将这场磨难描述成是他拒绝了哈佛,而不是相反。 这段插曲几乎与之前许多情况如出一辙,当时特朗普同样将分手说成是自己的选择。例如,2017年金州勇士队赢得NBA总冠军并决定不出席白宫活动时,特朗普事后声称是他取消了邀请。“他打算在我们能和他分手之前先和我们分手,”勇士队教练史蒂夫·科尔说。 同样在2017年,当美国最大公司的首席执行官们为抗议特朗普在夏洛茨维尔“团结右翼”集会上对白人民族主义者和反抗议者所做的道德等同,纷纷退出特朗普的商业顾问委员会时,特朗普同样试图将委员会的可悲垮台说成是他的决定,声称他决定解散它们。 而在今年早些时候,当埃克森美孚(Exxon)首席执行官在白宫石油公司CEO峰会上公开表示对投资委内瑞拉不感兴趣时,特朗普立即试图重新定义事实。“我可能倾向于不让埃克森参与。我不喜欢他们的回应,”特朗普说。“他们玩得太花哨了。” 这种先发制人式拒绝的现象,在试图离开特朗普麾下的工作人员和下属身上表现得更为明显和夸张。2025年初,代理社会保障管理局局长米歇尔·金在拒绝了DOGE访问敏感政府记录的要求后辞职,特朗普再次试图歪曲事实。当被问及金的离职时,特朗普表示:“你知道,当你解雇某人时,他们总是辞职,然后说‘我们辞职了’。但当你有那样的数据时,我认为实际上是你被解雇了”。特朗普坚持将金的离职定性为解雇,尽管她显然是抗议辞职,并且已在该机构工作了30年。 同样,2018年,国防部长吉姆·马蒂斯提交了一封批评特朗普从叙利亚撤军的辞职信。特朗普却抢先宣布,他将在马蒂斯计划离职前两个月将其免职,批评其表现并称自己解雇了他。他自己的政府官员对特朗普的事实陈述提出异议,但在特朗普将每一次拒绝都重新定义为他的选择的强迫症下,事实被抛在了一边。 然后,也许是特朗普最恶劣的否认——他在2020年大选中的失败。这种否认仍在持续,联邦调查局最近在乔治亚州查获了官方选举选票。但这在他甚至还没输掉选举之前就开始了。2020年8月,特朗普宣称:“我们输掉这次选举的唯一方式就是选举被操纵了。” 通过这种方式,特朗普将“输不起”的诊断提升到了一个荒诞但可预测的层面。在特朗普的宇宙里,他从未被拒绝——他永远是拒绝者,从未是被拒绝者。 “正面我赢,反面你输”是顽皮孩童中常见的口头禅。它显然也是美国总统的哲学。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

特朗普威胁阻止美加边境桥梁开通,并要求赔偿

(SeaPRwire) - 美国总统唐纳德·特朗普威胁要阻止一座价值47亿美元、连接密歇根州底特律和安大略省温莎的桥梁开通,这是美加关系紧张的最新表现。 在一篇冗长的社交媒体帖子中,特朗普针对其北方邻国提出了一系列问题,并再次强调他经常提到的观点,即加拿大“几十年来一直非常不公平地对待美国”。 总统声称,加拿大将拥有戈尔迪·豪国际大桥的两端。该桥于2018年开始建设,目前已接近完工。他还抱怨称,这座基础设施的建设“几乎没有美国元素”。 在指责安大略省拒绝在商店里储备一些美国生产的酒精产品,并抱怨加拿大对乳制品征收关税后,特朗普宣称,在“美国因给予加拿大的一切得到充分补偿”之前,他“不会允许这座桥开通”。 “我们将立即开始谈判,”他警告说,“考虑到我们给予他们的一切,或许我们至少应该拥有这项资产的一半。” 2012年6月签署的(此处原文缺失协议名称)规定,加拿大政府将为这座桥买单,并将在30年内收取的通行费作为补偿。 该协议还规定,这座以多产的加拿大冰球运动员戈尔迪·豪命名的桥梁将由加拿大政府和密歇根州政府共同公有,建设中使用的所有钢铁都将来自美国或加拿大。加拿大政府承担大部分费用的提议得到了当时密歇根州州长里克·斯奈德的认可。 2017年2月,一切似乎进展顺利。当时,特朗普和时任加拿大总理贾斯廷·特鲁多发表了(此处原文缺失相关内容),庆祝该项目,并称这座桥梁是“我们两国之间重要的经济纽带”。 最近,美国国土安全部(DHS)于1月30日(此处原文缺失相关动作),宣布这座桥将作为一个正式的入境口岸。该部门表示,这座桥将为旅客每年节省1270万美元,部分原因是缓解了交通拥堵。 特朗普阻止这座桥开通的新威胁引发了加拿大官员的批评。 “这太疯狂了。当我读到那篇帖子时,我真不敢相信自己的眼睛,”温莎市市长德鲁·迪尔肯斯对加拿大广播公司(CBC)说。他还补充说,这座桥本应创造一个机会,“让总理和总统在桥中间会面,握手,并庆祝两国的这一胜利。不幸的是,唐纳德·特朗普营造了一种氛围,我认为近期内这种情况不会发生。” 特朗普对这座桥的不满标志着总统与加拿大之间的最新紧张关系。 今年1月在达沃斯举行的世界经济论坛上,特朗普告诉与会者,加拿大“靠美国生存”。在魁北克市录制的一段讲话中,(此处原文缺失相关人物)坚定地表示:“加拿大不是靠美国生存。加拿大繁荣是因为我们是加拿大人。” 特朗普在对卡尼在达沃斯的演讲感到不满后抨击了加拿大。卡尼在演讲中大胆地表示,旧的世界秩序“不会回来了”。他鼓励人们不要“哀悼”过去的方式,并建议“怀旧不是一种策略”。卡尼敦促中等强国为自己挺身而出,指责“大国”利用经济压力来取得成果。 虽然他没有提及美国或其总统,但卡尼发表这番讲话时,正值特朗普试图收购格陵兰岛,并且他长期多次威胁要吞并加拿大,使其成为“(此处原文缺失相关内容)”。 此后,卡尼一直在为加拿大探索其他贸易联盟和途径。上个月他前往北京与中国国家主席习近平会面后,宣布加拿大和中国建立了一个专注于“能源、农产品和贸易”的“(此处原文缺失相关内容)”。 特朗普在威胁阻止这座桥开通的同时抨击了这一联盟,声称中国“会把加拿大生吞活剥”,让美国“捡剩下的”。他还提到了这座桥的命名者,接着预测中国将“终止加拿大所有的冰球运动,并永久取消斯坦利杯”。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

脱水的5种奇怪症状

(SeaPRwire) - 每个人都有过这种感觉:连续几个小时忘记喝水,然后开始感到不对劲。喉咙可能会觉得干燥、发痒;肌肉或许会开始感到紧绷。但在身体内部,发生的变化更多:随着水分流失,细胞开始收缩,肾脏开始保存水分,这使得尿液颜色变深。 这个问题很容易解决,只需多喝水即可。然而,我们中有很多人连这种基本的自我保健都做不到;根据最近的一项研究,美国有24%的老年人至少存在轻度脱水。"身体里发生的任何事都离不开水的作用,因此完全忽视它,就等于错过了改善健康的大好机会,"旧金山公共卫生部研究水合作用的营养流行病学家乔迪·斯图基说。尽管官方建议各不相同——广为流传的"一天八杯水"——但斯图基建议大多数成年人每天饮用约一升水。 以下是5个表明你需要喝更多水的奇怪迹象。 情绪波动和脑雾 大脑是饮水不足时最先受到影响的部位之一。即使是轻度脱水——意味着仅失去少量水分——也会影响工作记忆和反应时间。人们在这种状态下仍然可以完成任务,但往往会感到更加烦躁、易怒和有压力——斯图基说,这对女性来说尤其如此。有证据表明,当人们没有适当补充水分时,可能会。"大脑对液体平衡高度敏感,血浆容量减少会改变脑血流和神经递质活动,"佛罗里达海湾海岸大学玛丽埃布健康与人类服务学院助理院长劳伦斯·贾奇说。 头痛和头晕 水分摄入不足会引发头痛。这是因为液体摄入减少会影响大脑——尤其是调节疼痛的部分——同时也会影响电解质平衡。贾奇说,这两种效应都可能导致头部疼痛和头晕。 消化减慢和便秘 水对于推动物质通过胃肠道系统至关重要。当摄入量低时,结肠会从粪便中吸收更多水分,导致排便更困难、频率更低。贾奇说,长期低度脱水是导致便秘的一个风险因素。一项2024年的研究还发现,充足的饮水摄入对于维持肠道内的细菌和免疫平衡至关重要,能建立起坚实的防御。 心率升高和耐力下降 随着水合作用水平下降,血容量减少,迫使心脏更努力地工作以维持心输出量。这会导致静息心率升高,虚弱和疲劳感增加,耐力下降——即使在日常活动中也是如此,而不仅仅是运动时。如果你体内没有足够的水分,仅仅是遛狗都可能带来心跳加速和头晕目眩的感觉,而那场健身锻炼可能会感觉加倍困难。"脱水越严重,肌肉功能就越差,"斯图基说。"运动时你会更快感到疲劳。" 类似衰老的皮肤变化 虽然多喝水不会消除皱纹,但脱水会使皮肤显得暗淡、弹性下降,更容易出现细纹。事实上,挤压皮肤并观察其恢复原状的速度——测试其弹性——是医疗专业人员用来评估脱水的一种方法。充足的水分有助于维持皮肤弹性并支持屏障功能,这会影响整体外观。 生病风险增加 液体缺乏会阻碍身体对抗病原体和维持免疫细胞功能的能力。长期持续处于水分不足状态与慢性疾病有关。 一项2023年的研究查看了近12,000名成年人30年的数据,发现人们血液中的钠水平——当液体摄入减少时会上升——与慢性疾病之间存在相关性。他们发现,与钠水平处于中等范围的人相比,钠水平偏高或偏低的成年人更有可能表现出加速生物衰老的迹象。这一切都指出了长期保持水合作用的重要性——表明水合作用在长期维持我们健康和生存方面具有特殊作用。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

乔丹·奇莱斯:运动员应得真相 Latest News

乔丹·奇莱斯:运动员应得真相

(SeaPRwire) - 自2024年奥运会以来,我一直感觉自己在屏息以待。我的自由体操评分出现的错误——以及围绕我的教练何时对这一错误提出异议的争议——让我的铜牌成为了一个国际(事件)。 在整个过程中,美国队一直支持着我。1月23日,瑞士联邦最高法院裁定,一项关键证据此前未被、且必须被纳入考量:我们认为这段视频能够证明我们是在规定时间内提出异议的。那一天,我理应站在领奖台上。 当瑞士联邦最高法院裁定支持我们纳入视频证据时,我感受到了久违的情绪:释然、被认可,以及一丝平静。这并非因为旅程结束,而是因为这个系统首次承认了我一直以来的主张——运动员应得到公平对待。我们应享有正当程序。我们的声音应被倾听。 我对这一结果心怀感激,也感谢所有在这场斗争中支持我的人。我的家人,在舆论喧嚣时提醒我保持本真;上帝与我的信仰,在过程中给予我慰藉;我的教练和队友,从未停止对真相的坚信;我的整个团队,尤其是法律团队,以细致与专业全力抗争;还有全球那些从这一事件中看到自己身影、不愿移开目光的运动员与支持者们。 我想让世界知道,这从来不止关乎我一人。它关乎每一位站在领奖台上、相信规则会被公正执行的运动员。当梦想面临考验时,只要运动员遵守了所有规则,他们就应享有与其他人一样的基本公平与正当程序。我为(那)全黑人领奖台而战。这一时刻深深镌刻在所有见证者的心中。它有力地提醒我们,当世界看似混乱、未来充满不确定性时,奥林匹克精神可以成为指引我们回归人性的灯塔。 简言之,我在为我的梦想进行应有的抗争。 自这场风波开始以来,我一直背负着“接受不合理之事”的压力。有人让我向前看,却对关键问题避而不谈;有人让我信任一个从未充分审视眼前证据的程序。 作为运动员,我被教导细节至关重要、时机至关重要、公平至关重要。因此,当法律程序中缺失了这些价值时,我无法保持沉默。有人希望我向前看、接受既定事实,但这场斗争对每一位接过奖牌、自豪地代表国家站在领奖台上的奥运选手而言都至关重要。 瑞士联邦最高法院的裁决确认了一个核心原则:公平至关重要。事实与证据至关重要。 整个过程中最令我困扰的,是裁决方拒绝考虑那段能证明我的教练在规定时间内口头提出异议的视频证据。Religion of Sports拍摄的视频完整记录了当时的实时情况。我的分数公布后不到一分钟,教练清晰地说:“为乔丹提出异议。”那一刻真实存在、被记录在案,且至关重要。看到这一证据终于被认可,这不只是法律上的胜利,更是情感上的慰藉,让我想起了年轻时的自己。 我常想起年轻时的自己——那个在尚不了解法庭为何物时就爱上体操的小女孩。她相信,只要努力、守规则、保持正直,系统就会给予回应。 这场斗争是为了那个在成长过程中多次感到被忽视、被无视的小乔丹。我必须为她坚持到底。这也是为了每一位观看奥运会、梦想有朝一日站在领奖台上、怀揣同样信念的年轻运动员。 这起案件超越了单一比赛或结果,关乎信任。运动员为热爱付出一切——身体、时间、青春。我们应拥有一个以同等尊重与认真态度对待我们的系统,正如它对我们的要求。瑞士联邦最高法院的裁决让我相信,进步是可能的。机构可以被问责。改变不必是象征性的,它可以是真实的。 随着案件进入下一阶段,我依然充满信心。这不只是对事实的信心,更是对“运动员声音重要”这一原则的信念。我始终相信凭实力取胜,这种信念不仅适用于赛场,更适用于任何公平受到考验的场合。 我选择这场斗争,并非想重温痛苦时刻,而是因为正义不应取决于身份或权势,而应取决于事实、证据与正确的行动。 我为自己而战,为每一位站在领奖台上的奥运选手而战,更为下一代应在配得上他们梦想的系统中竞技的运动员而战。本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti Exploration Expands and Upgrades Nevertire with Drilling Recommenced ACN Newswire

Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti Exploration Expands and Upgrades Nevertire with Drilling Recommenced

Melbourne, Australia--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - February 10, 2026) - Copper-gold explorer and hybrid prospect generator Kincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) (Kincora or the Company) is pleased to provide an update on strong initial results and an acceleration of exploration activities following completion of the Phase 1 drilling program at the Nevertire and Nevertire-South projects. The programs are being conducted under earn-in and joint venture agreements with AngloGold Ashanti Australia Limited (AngloGold Ashanti).Phase 1 drilling has upgraded the immediate target zone and reaffirmed Kincora's view that the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC) represents the most advanced and geologically prospective porphyry project within the covered northern extensions of the Macquarie Arc. Drilling has now recommenced to follow up high-priority targets advanced during the second half of 2025.In parallel, exploration activities have expanded to materially increase the search space to the south of the NMC. New geophysical surveys and a review of prior explorer drilling are underway to systematically evaluate and advance a prospective strike length exceeding 40km across the Nevertire and Nevertire South licenses.HIGHLIGHTSExtensive porphyry complex with multiple discovery potential confirmed: Phase 1 drilling (8-holes for 3385.2 metres, completed in 2H'2025) validated the presence of a large, highly prospective composite volcanic-intrusive complex across a greater than 5.4km strike at the Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC). Drilling intesected porphyry related lithologies, alteration, and vein hosted and disseminated copper, gold and pathfinder mineralisation.Targets upgraded; follow-up drilling underway: Phase 1 successfully upgraded the immediate target zone (open in all directions) and generated strong vectors for follow-up drilling. Copper and gold grades suggest increasing proximity to one or more porphyry system centre(s) (Figure 5). High-priority infill and step-out drilling has recommenced to further refine vectoring patterns and test multiple potential porphyry centres.Scale increased to province-scale: Phase 1 results combined with a review of prior explorer drilling support a greater than six-fold increase in the prospective strike length across the Nevertire and Nevertire South licenses. An initial ~110km² gravity surveying has been completed as part of a planned ~400km² program. The results, together with historical core resampling, are expected to refine step-out and scout drilling targets across multiple newly interpreted Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes.Expanded scout drilling planned at Nyngan: Planning and permitting are underway to expand scout drilling at two targets at the Nyngan license along with a potential first-ever hole at the adjacent Nyngan South license.Strong partnership and commercial alignment: The Nyngan, Nyngan South, Nevertire South and Nevertire projects form part of two earn-in and joint venture agreements with AngloGold Ashanti, which has the right to invest up to A$100-million across a total of five projects covering a continuous strike greater than 100km within Kincora's Northern Junee-Narromine Belt (NJNB) portfolio. Kincora currently manages the programs and receives a 10% management fee on expenditures.John Holliday, Technical Committee chair, and Peter Leaman, VP of Exploration, said:"Initial results have been very positive, validating Newcrest's prior analogues to the Cadia-Ridgeway and the Goonumbla (Northparkes) porphyry deposits and reaffirmed our view that the Nevertire Magmatic Complex is the most advanced and prospective porphyry project in the covered northern extensions of the Macquarie Arc. As a result, activities have been expanded to both follow up immediate high priority targets with drilling but also systematically advance a province-scale pipeline across a greater than 40km strike. Phase 1 drilling included large step-out holes from two previously favourable Newcrest intercepts and successfully upgraded the immediate target zone. We are very excited to have recommenced drilling, as the results indicate a new, large-scale mineralised system with the geological characteristics required for multiple discoveries.Additional scale is also emerging to the south. A review of prior explorer drilling and a ground gravity survey completed in late 2025 have highlighted significant southern extension potential, where favourable basement intersections, anomalous results, and untested magnetic and gravity anomalies remain open for drill testing.Separately, planning continues to support further scout drilling at the Nyngan and potentially Nyngan South projects. With a portfolio exceeding 2,350km² and a strong partnership with AngloGold Ashanti, Kincora is well positioned to systematically advance this unique, province-scale opportunity, offering substantial leverage to shareholders."NEVERTIRE AND NEVERTIRE SOUTH PROJECTSTarget specific drilling Following the April 2025 amended and second earn-in agreement with AngloGold Ashanti 1, a first phase drilling program commenced at both the Nevertire and Nevertire South licenses in 2H'2025. The program benefitied from unimpeded access across the consolidated ~8 x 12km Nevertire Magmatic Complex (NMC) and was designed to follow up two prior favourable drill results reported by Newcrest Mining and the most northern drilled holes at the NMC.Newcrest holes ACDNY005 and ACDNY006 were drilled ~2.7km apart, in the central portion of the NMC, and returned "lithologies, alteration and veining consistent with a setting similar to the Cadia-Ridgeway and Goonumbla (Northparkes) porphyry Cu-Au deposits" 2. Kincora's relogging of these holes, led by technical director John Holliday, supported this interpretation.The Phase 1 program included large scale step-out drilling and was designed to identify and define vectoring patterns toward potential porphyry centres. This program was very encouraging in providing strong vectors, upgrading the immediate target zone, supporting Newcrest's previous interpretation and reaffirming the Company's view that the NMC is the most geologically prospective porphyry project in the northern covered extensions of the Macquarie Arc.The 8 hole program, totalling 3385.2 metres, utilised cost-effective mud-rotary drilling through the relatively soft post mineral cover sequence, followed by NQ3 diamond core drilling of the porphyry-prospective basement. All holes intersected basement. Drilling to date has intersected the NMC at shallow to moderate depths, with basement mostly at ~70m (in the south-west) to a 250m depth.Step-out drilling across a greater than 4km of strike intersected multiple porphyritic intrusive phases beneath a moderate thickness of post-mineral cover - see Figures 4-5 and Tables 1-4. Lithologies intersected include monzonite, diorite, dacite, and crowded pyroxene-hornblende andesites - see selected core photographs in Figure 6. Favourable alteration and porphyry-style veining were observed, with copper, gold and pathfinder element geochemistry providing vectors for high-priority follow-up drilling, including copper grades suggestive of increasing proximity to a porphyry system centre(s) (see Figure 5).High priority infill and further step-out drilling has recommenced to discover and refine vectoring patterns toward prospective porphyry centres.Larger scale new target and intrusive complex generation As previously announced, following encouraging initial visual observations, follow-up geophysical surveys commenced in 2H'2025, together with a review of prior explorer drilling results and ground gravity survey data 3.These activities have resulted in a material increase in the prospective search space across the Nevertire and Nevertire South licenses, supporting a total prospective strike of greater than 40km N-S, representing a greater than 6x increase relative to the initial Phase 1 drill strike extent - see Figure 3.A gravity survey covering ~110km2 has been completed and is currently being intergrated with legacy gravity data-sets, totalling ~148km2, acquired by prior explorers. These historical surveys were variable in coverage density and spatial distribution, reflecting piecemeal target-specific objectives. When combined with the new systematic gravity coverage, the dataset is expected to support a more coherent district-scale interpretation, with a further ~290km² of gravity surveying planned in 2026.Prior explorer drilling across the southern extensions of the NMC includes 23 diamond holes totalling 7,383.7 metres, with some drillcore hosted in the publicly accessible Londonderry core library at the NSW Government's WB Clarke Geoscience Centre. Numerous historical drillholes in the Nevertire South priority area and adjacent southern targets were only partially sampled or analysed for a limited element suite, and most critical porphyry pathfinder elements were not consistently assayed.As a result, multiple historical drillholes intersecting basement, coincident with favourable magnetic and/or gravity anomalies and returning anomalous geochemical results, were not advanced beyond initial testing. Many of these intersections are now recognised to be spatially associated with interpreted Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes that remain open and untested.Resampling, re-logging and modern analytical work on high-priority historical drillholes, together with new geophysical data, is planned and is expected to expand and systematically advance the exploration pipeline, refine further step-out and scout drilling targets, and support evaluation of multiple potential new Macquarie Arc intrusive complexes.Figure 1: Kincora and AngloGold Ashanti have partnered to explore new district-scale undercover extensions of the world-class Macquarie Arc in the Northern Junee-Narromine Belt via two earn-in and joint venture agreements, currently aggressively drilling large greenfield targets Kincora has a portfolio of eight active projects, including managing two earn-in programs with AngloGold Ashanti, receiving a 10% management fee on expenditures, and covering a continuous 100km strike across 5 adjacent licenses (see References footnote 7 for source data for disclosed inventory/metal endowment)To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/283322_9d387295a4fb3b48_001full.jpgFigure 2: Positive results have supported an acceleration of exploration activities, with step-out and infill drilling recommenced at the Nevertire South license, wider exploration planned to the south, and planning underway for recommencing drilling at multiple targets within the the Nyngan license, and potentially a maiden scout hole in the Nyngan South license To view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/2305/283322_9d387295a4fb3b48_002full.jpgFigure 3: Phase 1 drilling results reaffirm Kincora's view that the NMC is the most advanced and geologically prospective porphyry project in the covered northern extensions of the Macquarie Arc, with the southern strike highlighting new province-scale potential A gravity survey covering >100 km² has been completed within a planned total survey area of >400 km².

The district has seen considerable exploration success, including two greater than 10Moz gold equivalent discoveries/resource expansions 7 and an emerging gold discovery by Waratah Resources at the Spur project 8 and LinQ Minerals at the southern zone of the Gilmore project 9.Despite regional magnetics effectively mapping the Macquarie Arc volcanic belts, due to the post mineral cover, there has been very limited prior drilling of the extensions of both the Junee-Narromine and Molong volcanic belts relative to the southern more outcropping sections which hosts a number of world-class deposits and mines (e.g. Cadia, Cowal and Northparkes).Kincora's portfolio and the wider NJNB offers new district-scale discovery potential with spatial and temporal settings, coupled with magnetics, gravity and new Ambient Noise Tomography (ANT) surveys, supportive of large-scale targets analogous to porphyry deposits located in the southern section of the Arc.AngloGold Ashanti has secured Earn-in and Joint Venture Agreements with both Kincora and Inflection Resources (AUCU.CSE) ("Inflection", market capitalisation C$31.3 million) within the NJNB with over A$20 million investment to date 10. In 2Q'2025, AngloGold Ashanti moved to Phase II of its earn-in agreement with Inflection designating a total of four projects to continue earning into (including two projects adjacent to Kincora's Nyngan project) 11 and signed a major amendment with Kincora to include a second joint venture supporting a continuous strike greater than a 100kms and five projects.The most recent notable example of a new globally significant emerging porphyry district is the Vicuña district, which is also an extension of a renowned world-class porphyry belt. Vicuña is an extension of the central Andean belts in Argentina on the border of Chile and situated at over 4000m altitude.Within this district NGEx Resources Inc in 2009 held three early-stage exploration projects and at the time had a market capitalisation of approximately C$40 million 12. These same projects are all still at a pre-development phase but have yielded in four large-scale discoveries valued at over A$11 billion 13.Kincora was an early mover into the NJNB and has opportunistically pegged strategically important ground directly from the State resulting in a district scale portfolio of the interpreted most prospective and shallow to moderate covered part of the northwards extension of the Macquarie Arc under post mineral cover. This portfolio now covers a strike twice the length of the Vicuña district and is included in earn-in and agreements with AngloGold Ashanti.ABOUT KINCORAKincora Copper Limited (ASX: KCC) (TSXV: KCC) is an emerging Australia-focused copper-gold explorer with a hybrid prospect generator strategy. The Company is now successfully proving up the prospectivity of its extensive project portfolio, which includes multiple district-scale landholdings and scalable drill ready targets. These assets are located in Australia's Macquarie Arc and Mongolia's Southern Gobi, two of the globe's leading porphyry belts, and the historical Condobolin mining field within the Cobar Basin in NSW.Kincora is using an asset level partner model to develop and implement exploration strategies for its wholly-owned large-scale exploration stage porphyry projects. The Company has already unlocked over $100 million of potential partner funding for multiple earlier stage and/or non-core porphyry projects 13. These initial deals have supported over 16,000 metres of drilling and over A$7m of partner funded exploration since late 2024 until September 30, 2025, with management fees and exploration ramping up 14.Partner discussions are ongoing for its remaining 100% owned flagship projects that are all situated within existing porphyry camps containing over 20-million-ounce gold equivalent resource inventory.Kincora's ambition is to be the operator for exploration budgets of over $10 million per annum for the porphyry portfolio providing sufficient project management fees for the Company to be self-funding (covering corporate costs and maintenance of remaining wholly owned projects) and have partnerships with a diversified portfolio of industry leading producers/explorers. This is in addition to the various other existing partnerships where Kincora is not the operator or receiving a management fee income stream.The Company has assembled an industry leading technical team who have made multiple world-class copper and gold discoveries, who have "skin in the game" equity ownership, and, backed by a consolidated and sophisticated shareholder register. In Septmber 2025, Kincora closed an oversubscribed C$4 million non-brokered private placement of units led by leading North American investors, including Rick Rule and Jeff Phillips, and their investor networks.The share units have a 12-month hold period and there is an accelerator on the warrants - both at the lead investors requests. This raising is concurrent with a corporate restructuring and share capital roll back with only 43-million shares outstanding and over 60% of the register held by reporting insiders and/or in 12-month hold stock.The roll back and placement terms provides Kincora the corporate structure to leverage the deals, partner funding and project results already in place and to unlock significant existing value. This is starting to be realized.The new capital provides the ability to accelerate more drilling, do more asset level deals, earn more management fees, and, ultimately, supporting the ambition of more (big) new discoveries. These multiple avenues all provide further material value catalysts for shareholders.The financing also supports Kincora pursuing a hybrid project generator model and undertaking drilling at our 100% owned Condobolin project. The Condobolin project hosts a historical mining field located within the Cobar Basin and within trucking distance to an existing mill seeking third party ore. The Cobar Basin has recently seen a number of significant new discoveries (eg Federation, Achilles, Mallee Bull, Southern Nights and Wagga Tank) and significant corporate activity (eg Harmony's A$1.6 billion takeover of MAC, Kingston Resources receiving A$50 million cash for the first tranche of its divestment of its Misima project etc). The project and regional profiles' support the Condobolin project being an asset that a junior explorer such as Kincora can add significant value too.By having a significant portfolio of partner funded large porphyry projects, and a very focused program on a 100% owned project, the Company is seeking to position Kincora as a leading institutional grade explorer in the public Australian and Canadian markets, and the leading project generator on the ASX.To learn more, please visit: www.kincoracopper.comThis announcement has been authorised for release by the Board of Kincora Copper Limited (ARBN 645 457 763)For further information please contact:Sam Spring, President and Chief Executive Officersam.spring@kincoracopper.com or +61431 329 345Laurie Thomas, Strategic Advisorlaurie.thomas@kincoracopper.com or +1306 341 3826Media contactJulia Maguire, Managing Director, The Capital Networkjulia@thecapitalnetwork.com.au or +61 2 7257 7338Executive office400 - 837 West Hastings StreetVancouver, BC V6C 3N6, CanadaTel: 1.604.283.1722Subsidiary office AustraliaC/- JM Corporate ServicesLevel 6, 350 Collins StreetMelbourne, VIC, Australia 3000Qualified PersonThe scientific and technical information in this announcement was prepared in accordance with the standards of the Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum and National Instrument 43-101 - Standards of Disclosure for Mineral Projects ("NI 43-101") and was reviewed, verified and compiled by Kincora's staff under the supervision of Peter Leaman (M.Sc.

香港对吉米·莱伊的判决让台湾感到恐惧

(SeaPRwire) - 当香港一家法院周一以国家安全为由判处媒体大亨、民主运动领袖黎智英二十年监禁时,他的儿子称这“形同判处死刑”,考虑到黎智英已78岁高龄且健康状况不佳。与此同时,全球批评人士则将此判决描述为曾经更加自由的香港的丧钟——也是中国觊觎的其他地方,尤其是台湾,可能面临命运的信号。 “我相信中国对待香港的方式就是它接下来想对待台湾的方式,甚至更远,其他国家,”美国香港自由委员会主席Mark Clifford在判决下达前告诉TIME。 人权观察组织的一位发言人周一对TIME总结了这种情绪:“今天是中国香港,明天是中国台湾。” 黎智英是中国日益增长的影响力——自1997年英国将香港移交给中国以来,香港成为中国的特别行政区——以及对民主声音的压制,特别是自2020年通过一项国家安全法以来,他一直是中国香港和北京当局的直言不讳的批评者。他于去年12月被判犯有“串谋勾结外国势力罪”两项罪名,以及作为民主报纸《苹果日报》创始人串谋发布煽动性材料罪。 然而,尽管香港和北京的当局及媒体支持黎智英的判决,但台湾——这个中国声称拥有主权的自治岛屿——则谴责了这一判决。台湾的陆委会在一份声明中表示,黎智英的重判“不仅剥夺其人身自由,践踏言论自由与新闻自由,更否定人民问责执政者的基本权利。” 台湾总统赖清德周二表示,黎智英的判决“揭示了香港国安法其真面目——是中国‘一国两制’下践踏人权、压制新闻自由的政治迫害工具”,并呼吁释放这位媒体大亨。 伦敦SOAS中国研究所所长Steve Tsang告诉TIME,黎智英的判决将向台湾政府及其人民证实,“一国两制”原则——目前管辖香港——“是他们无法接受的未来”。 这个体系实际上是为台湾设计的。中国前领导人邓小平提出了“一国两制”框架,旨在让台湾与大陆和平统一,同时“尊重那里的现实和现有制度”。为了使这一原则对台湾政府更具吸引力,中国在英国和葡萄牙分别于1997年和1999年将这些地区归还中国后,将其应用于香港和澳门,允许所谓的特别行政区拥有自己的经济体系和政府。 但批评人士认为,随着政治异见人士被监禁或流亡,组织解散,以及自由媒体被瓦解,地方治理已日益与大陆趋同。 “你拿一个为台湾设计的模式,在香港试行,我们已经看到了结果,”Clifford周一对TIME说,并补充说,中国在“一国两制”框架下向香港和国际社会承诺的自由和自治几乎已经消失。“当然,台湾觉得下一个就是它。”本文由第三方内容提供商提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)对此不作任何保证或陈述。 分类: 头条新闻,日常新闻 SeaPRwire为公司和机构提供全球新闻稿发布,覆盖超过6,500个媒体库、86,000名编辑和记者,以及350万以上终端桌面和手机App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韩、法、俄、印尼、马来、越南、中文等多种语言新闻稿发布。

Honda Works Partner Aston Martin Aramco Formula One(TM) Team Unveils Livery of “AMR26” F1(TM) Machine Equipped with Honda Power Unit Ahead of the 2026 Race Season JCN Newswire

Honda Works Partner Aston Martin Aramco Formula One(TM) Team Unveils Livery of “AMR26” F1(TM) Machine Equipped with Honda Power Unit Ahead of the 2026 Race Season

TOKYO, Feb 10, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Ahead of the start of the 2026 FIA*1 Formula One World Championship (F1TM) season, Honda works partner Aston Martin Aramco Formula One™ Team (AMAF1), has unveiled the livery for its new F1 machine, the AMR26.

KS Energy and Hitachi Collaborate on Extra-High Voltage Battery Energy Storage System JCN Newswire

KS Energy and Hitachi Collaborate on Extra-High Voltage Battery Energy Storage System

TOKYO, Feb 10, 2026 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - KS Energy Co., Ltd. ("KS Energy"), a renewable energy business company and Hitachi, Ltd. (TSE:6501, “Hitachi”) agreed on February 6 to collaborate on the development and operation of an Extra-High Voltage Grid Battery Energy Storage System*1 within Kumamoto Prefecture, as well as the development and operation of power trading businesses. Hitachi will provide project development support for KS Energy's development of the project and jointly promote the development and operation of this battery energy storage system (tentative name)*2 . Additionally, KS Energy will also explore the introduction of a power trading support system planned for development by Hitachi.This initiative will support stable power supply in the Kyushu region and contribute to achieving carbon neutrality.*1 Extra-High Voltage Grid Battery Energy Storage System: Large-scale battery storage facilities directly connected to the power grid (such as transmission lines) with a capacity of 2,000 kW or more.*2 Power Trading Support System: A power trading support system for operators managing large-scale grid-connected storage batteries. It supports traders' daily operations comprehensively—from bid planning and market transactions to submitting plans to OCCTO—across both the supply-demand adjustment market and the wholesale electricity market. System development also incorporates collaboration with other companies, such as bid plan optimization services. This contributes to improved profitability through trading based on optimal bid plans and streamlines routine daily tasks like plan submission.BackgroundRenewable energy generation fluctuates due to weather changes and other factors, significantly impacting the power supply-demand balance. Particularly in the Kyushu region, where renewable energy adoption is advancing, output curtailment occurs frequently when generation exceeds demand. Securing balancing power to stabilize the power grid is an urgent priority. Furthermore, as the policy framework for promoting renewable energy shifts from the FIT (Feed-in Tariff) system to the FIP (Feed-in Premium) system, power generators are now required to develop their own electricity trading capabilities to formulate strategies for selling electricity in the power market. Against this backdrop, the importance of "aggregators" – entities that consolidate and control energy resources to adjust supply-demand balance – is growing. They are expected to contribute to the effective utilization and stable supply of renewable energy by engaging in both the electricity market and the power trading market.To address this situation, KS Energy, established in January 2024 with full investment from Higo Bank, Ltd. (part of the Kyushu Financial Group), has adopted a policy to contribute to stabilizing power supply as a regional energy company, aiming to make the entire Kyushu region a leading area for renewable energy circulation. Meanwhile, Hitachi has a long history in the power sector, providing a wide range of advanced solutions from energy storage systems to transmission and distribution infrastructure and grid protection devices.Through this collaborative effort, both companies will combine their respective strengths. By developing and operating energy storage facilities and engaging in power trading, they aim to achieve carbon neutrality in the Kyushu region.Initiative DetailsKS Energy and Hitachi have decided to jointly develop and operate battery energy storage system in the Kyushu region. This initiative contributes to stabilizing local power supply by charging and discharging in response to electricity demand-supply balance, thereby providing balancing power.1. Nation's First Extra-High Voltage Battery Energy Storage System project launched by a regional bank group This marks the first instance nationwide of a bank subsidiary's renewable energy business company undertaking a grid energy battery business in the extra-high voltage range. Through this initiative, we aim to contribute to stable power supply. Additionally, KS Energy is considering managing the power trading for the storage facility in-house. The plan involves handling the entire operational process: forecasting electricity market prices, creating power generation (charging/discharging) plans for the batteries, controlling the storage facility, and monetizing through market transactions. In the future, leveraging its operational expertise in storage facilities and collaborating with Higo Bank, KS Energy will enhance support for power generators and provide financing support to storage facility developers. This will enable the delivery of services extending beyond the financial sector, promote efficient electricity usage within local communities, and contribute to achieving regional carbon neutrality and decarbonization.2. Joint Promotion of Project Development from the Early Stage Leveraging Hitachi’s extensive experience in battery energy storage systems, Hitachi and KS Energy will jointly promote the development of energy storage facilities. The Hitachi Group will work together to promote project development through to operational launch. This includes cooperation from grid connection application discussions with transmission and distribution operators to applications and procedures with relevant ministries and agencies, provision of business feasibility evaluation information, supply of Hitachi Energy-manufactured PCS, and project management covering equipment design, procurement, and installation. Hitachi will sustainably support KS Energy's stable operations of the storage facility.3. Collaboration in Power Trading Business To stably utilize rapidly expanding renewable energy, the need for aggregation functions that balance electricity supply and demand is growing. KS Energy is considering introducing Hitachi's planned power trading support systemto achieve efficient energy resource utilization and aim for stable power supply. Under Hitachi's Lumada 3.0 initiative, the company is deploying "HMAX by Hitachi" (hereinafter HMAX), a next-generation AI solution suite that tackles the most complex challenges facing social infrastructure. This is achieved by combining vast data from both physical and digital assets with advanced AI enhanced by Hitachi's unique deep domain knowledge. In the electric power trading area as well, Hitachi will realize services that optimize the operation of storage battery assets and maximize market value, and aim to deploy them as HMAX.Future DevelopmentsKS Energy and Hitachi will collaborate to achieve both the mainstreaming of renewable energy as a primary power source and stable supply through the development of battery energy storage system and enhanced aggregation functions, working together toward realizing regional carbon neutrality.Overview of Grid-Connected Storage FacilityStorage Facility Name : (Provisional name) KSE Kumamoto Battery Energy Storage SystemStorage Facility Location (Planned) : Within Kumamoto PrefectureRated Output/Rated Capacity (Planned) : 50,000 kW / 112,880 kWhScheduled Start of Operation : January 2029 Copyright 2026 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

It is a humanized immunoglobulin gamma (IgG1) monoclonal antibody directed against aggregated soluble (protofibril) and insoluble forms of amyloid-beta (Aβ). Lecanemab has been approved in 53 countries and regions including Japan, the United States, China, Europe, South Korea, Taiwan, and Saudi Arabia, and is under regulatory review in 6 countries. Following the initial phase with treatment every two weeks for 18 months, intravenous (IV) maintenance dosing with treatment every four weeks was approved in 7 countries including the U.S., China, the UK, and others, and applications have been filed in 7 countries and regions. The U.S. FDA approved Eisai’s Biologics License Application (BLA) for subcutaneous maintenance dosing with LEQEMBI IQLIK in August 2025. A Supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) for initiation treatment was accepted in January 2026. The sBLA has been granted Priority Review, with a Prescription Drug User Fee Act (PDUFA) action date of May 24, 2026. In November 2025, an application for a subcutaneous injectable formulation in Japan was submitted. In January 2026, the Biologics License Application (BLA) for the subcutaneous formulation was accepted in China. In December 2025, Lecanemab (IV) has been included in the “Commercial Insurance Innovative Drug List”, recently introduced by the National Healthcare Security Administration (NHSA) of China. Since July 2020 the Phase 3 clinical study (AHEAD 3-45) for individuals with preclinical AD, meaning they are clinically normal and have intermediate or elevated levels of amyloid in their brains, is ongoing. AHEAD 3-45 is conducted as a public-private partnership between the Alzheimer's Clinical Trial Consortium that provides the infrastructure for academic clinical trials in AD and related dementias in the U.S, funded by the National Institute on Aging, part of the National Institutes of Health, Eisai and Biogen. Since January 2022, the Tau NexGen clinical study for Dominantly Inherited AD (DIAD), that is conducted by Dominantly Inherited Alzheimer Network Trials Unit (DIAN-TU), led by Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis, is ongoing and includes lecanemab as the backbone anti-amyloid therapy.About ProtofibrilProtofibrils are believed to contribute to the brain injury that occurs with AD and are considered to be the most toxic form of soluble Aβ, having a primary role in the cognitive decline associated with this progressive, debilitating condition.1 Protofibrils cause injury to neurons in the brain, which in turn, can negatively impact cognitive function via multiple mechanisms, not only increasing the development of insoluble Aβ plaques but also increasing direct damage to brain cell membranes and the connections that transmit signals between nerve cells or nerve cells and other cells. It is believed the reduction of protofibrils may prevent the progression of AD by reducing damage to neurons in the brain and cognitive dysfunction.2About the Collaboration between Eisai and Biogen for ADEisai and Biogen have been collaborating on the joint development and commercialization of AD treatments since 2014. Eisai serves as the lead of lecanemab development and regulatory submissions globally with both companies co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority.About the Collaboration between Eisai and BioArctic for ADSince 2005, Eisai and BioArctic have had a long-term collaboration regarding the development and commercialization of AD treatments. Eisai obtained the global rights to study, develop, manufacture and market lecanemab for the treatment of AD pursuant to an agreement with BioArctic in December 2007.

Dr. Don Hits Seven-Figure Milestones on Three Music Videos in Less than a Year SeaPRwire

Dr. Don Hits Seven-Figure Milestones on Three Music Videos in Less than a Year

Seattle, Washington – February 10, 2026 – (SeaPRwire) – Singer-songwriter Dr. Don has surpassed one million views on YouTube across three of his music videos in less than a year, marking a major digital milestone for the independent artist. The songs “Beautiful Vibes,” “Vodka Tonight,” and “Ruled by Time” have each crossed the seven-figure mark on the platform, with additional short-form video versions also reaching significant view counts. Dr. Don’s milestone highlights his rise as an independent artist, proving that multiple songs can attract large audiences without relying on traditional promotion. Strong performance across both full-length and short-form videos shows his ability to connect with listeners in different ways, marking a significant step in his career and illustrating how music can thrive organically in today’s digital landscape. According to Dr. Don, “Ruled by Time” has become the strongest engagement anchor among the releases, continuing to generate repeat viewers, lyric-based comments, and ongoing discussion. He said the video has maintained active interaction well beyond its initial surge. Dr. Don described “Ruled by Time” as a standout, noting its strong and sustained engagement. “It has become the strongest anchor among my releases. The video continues to show unusually high interaction with repeat viewers, lyric-based comments, and ongoing discussion,” he said. “Seeing people reference the lyrics and share their experiences shows the music is landing in a real way.” The surge comes without a label machine, radio pipeline, or marketing firm behind it. Dr. Don is building this momentum on his own, releasing music independently and growing his audience one listener at a time.
