Atlas Lithium’s Neves Project Completes Definitive Feasibility Study Estimating 145% IRR and 11-Month Payback ACN Newswire

Atlas Lithium’s Neves Project Completes Definitive Feasibility Study Estimating 145% IRR and 11-Month Payback

Boca Raton, Florida--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - August 4, 2025) - Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) ("Atlas Lithium" or "Company"), a leading lithium development company, is pleased to announce that SGS Canada Inc. ("SGS") has completed the Definitive Feasibility Study ("DFS") for the Company's 100%-owned Neves Lithium Project ("Project"), a technical report prepared under the U.S. guidelines of Item 1300 of Regulation S-K ("Regulation S-K 1300"). This hard-rock Project is well-suited to being a low-cost open-pit mining operation, as its spodumene deposits are located relatively close to the surface. Located in the state of Minas Gerais, Brazil, the Project encompasses 4 of the 98 mineral rights for lithium owned by Atlas Lithium. As detailed in the DFS, the Neves Project is expected to deliver strong financial metrics with an internal rate of return ("IRR") of 145%, payback in 11 months from the start of operations, and an after-tax net present value ("NPV") of $539 million. Importantly, the DFS estimates the Neves Project to have operational production costs of only $489 per tonne of lithium concentrate, positioning Atlas Lithium among the world's lowest-cost producers. Complete details of these metrics can be found in the DFS, filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission as an exhibit to the Company's Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarter ended June 30, 2025. Marc-Antoine Laporte from SGS serves as the Qualified Person for the DFS under Regulation S-K 1300. SGS is well-known as a global leader in testing, inspection, and certification services for mineral properties and projects.Industry-Leading Capital Efficiency and Low Operating CostsThe DFS supports that expected direct capital expenditures of $57.6 million will be needed for the implementation of the Project, by far the lowest such capital costs among other announced projects in Brazil. Notably, Atlas Lithium has already invested approximately $30 million in acquiring and transporting the Project's newly fabricated dense media separation ("DMS") plant to Brazil, as previously reported. The Company has secured two non-dilutive pre-payment agreements for its lithium concentrate totaling $40 million and has received additional funding interest from other parties, including 10-year debt financing options, any of which could support the Project's capital requirements.The Company believes that the DFS validates the Project's strong economics, positioning it among the most capital-efficient and lowest-cost hard-rock lithium developments globally. The Project will employ proven DMS technology, with comprehensive metallurgical testing demonstrating an expected robust lithium recovery rate of 61.7% to produce high-quality, low-impurity lithium concentrate. This relatively straightforward, low-risk DMS processing methodology minimizes technical complexity and operational risk while enabling a low environmental footprint.Atlas Lithium's mineral right to be mined, as detailed in the DFS, received its "Portaria de Lavra" (mining concession) status from Brazil's Ministry of Mines and Energy on May 27, 2025 — the highest level of titleship in Brazil and one that allows continuous mining operations. Multiple deposit areas within the Project remain open for resource expansion along strike and at depth and are thus expected to extend the life of mine. Additionally, numerous high-potential geological targets remain within the Project's mineral rights, providing compelling opportunities for future exploration.Located in the established Araçuaí Pegmatite District in the Vale do Jequitinhonha, often called Lithium Valley, the Project benefits from favorable infrastructure, including proximity to transportation networks, water resources, and skilled labor. The Project qualifies for tax incentives from the Superintendency for the Development of the Northeast (SUDENE), as promulgated by Brazil's Ministry of Integration and Regional Development, reducing the corporate tax rate from 34% to 15.25% and further enhancing profitability."The DFS indicates potentially outstanding returns for our initial vision of developing a focused, near-term, profitable lithium production asset with minimal capital requirements," said Marc Fogassa, Chairman and CEO of Atlas Lithium. "The combination of our low capital intensity and rapid payback period is expected to create exceptional value for our shareholders while positioning Atlas Lithium to benefit from future organic expansion opportunities at Neves and other high-potential lithium areas that we own. Importantly, we are creating many quality employment opportunities in the Vale do Jequitinhonha region, representing a significant societal contribution of our Project."Experienced Leadership Driving Project ImplementationFollowing his leadership role in collaborating with SGS on the DFS, project implementation activities are being supervised by Eduardo Queiroz, Atlas Lithium's Project Management Officer (PMO) and Vice President of Engineering. Mr. Queiroz has more than two decades of hands-on experience managing complex, large-scale mining projects."The DFS demonstrates the technical robustness of the Project, with proven DMS technology and comprehensive metallurgical test work validated by SGS, a premier firm in the lithium space," said Mr. Queiroz. "With our processing plant fully fabricated and paid for, and now with the DFS in hand, we have systematically de-risked the Project. I am excited to lead the implementation phase of Atlas Lithium's journey to becoming a lithium producer."Salinas and Clear: The Next Expansion FrontierAtlas Lithium is strategically positioned to capitalize on its extensive regional lithium exploration portfolio in Brazil, particularly through advancement of its Salinas Project and Clear Project, both 100% owned by the Company. Atlas Lithium's Salinas Project is just 5 miles east of the Colina lithium asset previously owned by Latin Resources — a major factor in Pilbara Minerals's acquisition of that company in 2024 for approximately $370 million. At the Salinas Project, Atlas Lithium has already achieved promising initial results, including the discovery of spodumene-rich pegmatites very close to the surface, and highly positive results from soil geochemistry and from LIDAR geological mapping.Atlas Lithium's Clear Project is located less than 4 miles from Sigma Lithium's operating lithium mine, and represents significant untapped potential with highly positive results from soil geochemistry and from LIDAR geological mapping.Diversification in Critical MineralsAtlas Lithium also owns approximately 30% of Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (OTCQB: JUPGF), a separate company with exploration programs in uranium, rare earths, titanium, and graphite.About Atlas Lithium Corporation Atlas Lithium Corporation (NASDAQ: ATLX) is a lithium development company focused on advancing its Neves Project to production. The Neves Project's Definitive Feasibility Study demonstrates excellent economics with a 145% IRR, $539 million NPV, and an 11-month payback. The Neves Project has received operational permitting, and its dense media separation plant has been acquired and transported to Brazil. With approximately 539 square kilometers of lithium mineral rights, Atlas Lithium owns the largest lithium exploration footprint in Brazil among publicly listed companies. Additionally, Atlas Lithium currently holds an approximate 30% ownership stake in Atlas Critical Minerals Corporation (OTCQB: JUPGF).Safe Harbor StatementThis press release contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

Honda HRC Wins 46th Suzuka 8 Hours Endurance Road Race

MIE, Japan, August 4, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) – Honda factory team*1 “Honda HRC” (CBR1000RR-R FIREBLADE SP: Takumi Takahashi / Johann Zarco) has won the 2025 FIM*2 Endurance World Championship “Coca-Cola” Suzuka 8 Hours Road Race 46th Annual Event (Suzuka 8 Hours) held at the Suzuka Circuit in Mie, on Sunday, August 3.This win marks Honda HRC’s fourth consecutive Suzuka 8 Hours victory. Team rider Takumi Takahashi has extended his outright record of the most Suzuka 8 Hours wins to seven (four consecutive), while Johann Zarco achieves his second consecutive victory. This victory also marks Honda’s 31st win at the event.*1 Factory team: Racing team managed by the bike manufacturer*2 FIM: Federation Internationale de MotocyclismeTakumi Takahashi (center) and Johann Zarco (right) on the podiumHonda HRC teamHonda HRC, which won the Suzuka 8 Hours once again, recorded the fastest lap time in the qualifying session held on Friday, August 1, securing its spot in the Top 10 Trial, in which the top 10 qualifying teams compete for final grid spots. In the Top 10 Trial held on Saturday, August 2 at 3:30 pm, Takahashi and Zarco took to the track, with Zarco recording a lap time of 2 minutes 4.290 seconds, a new Suzuka 8 Hours lap record, to secure pole position.The Suzuka 8 Hours race started at 11:30 am on Sunday, August 3, with Takahashi as lead rider for the fourth consecutive year. Takahashi took the hole shot, and after relinquishing the lead and maintaining second place for several laps, regained the lead on Lap 14, after which he gradually expanded his advantage. In the subsequent stints with Zarco and Takahashi taking turns on the bike, the team demonstrated consistent performance, leveraging fuel efficiency and quick pit work to extend the time gap, opening a one-lap advantage over second place by the midpoint of the race. In the closing stages, two safety car deployments closed the gap, but Honda HRC capitalized on the competing team’s final pit stop to create a 40-second lead which was maintained to the checkered flag. Zarco crossed the line at 7:30 pm completing Lap 217, securing Honda HRC’s fourth consecutive Suzuka 8 Hours victory.Takumi Takahashi | Honda HRC“I’m glad it went smoothly. It was a last-minute decision to compete with only two riders, and I knew it would be tough. I’m so exhausted. Toward the end, Johann’s condition looked tough, so I focused on doing my best to hand him the bike in good shape. In my final stint, I aimed to pull away by getting into the [2 minute] 6-second range, but due to the intense pressure from behind, I switched to maintaining the gap and handing over the bike safely. Johann really gave it everything. I’m so grateful to him. The team and everyone else worked hard, and I’d like to thank all the fans who supported us.”Johann Zarco | Honda HRC“I’m tired, just like Takumi. Race control was good, but it was difficult to recover between stints, and I couldn’t recover as much as I had hoped. When the safety car came out in Takumi’s final stint, he was able to extend his laps on track to give me more time to recover. The safety car came out for the second time during my stint, which allowed me to gradually regain my rhythm. After dusk, I was able to control the gap and finish the race enjoying the beautiful scenery. Takumi is a strong rider who can handle the heat well and didn’t show any signs of fatigue, which I think contributes to the team’s strength. I don’t want to race with only two-riders next year though. Honda has a fuel-efficient bike, which gives us a big advantage, and we were able to finish the race with seven pit stops. I would like to thank everyone on the team.”Teruaki Matsubara | Honda HRC team manager“This was an outstanding result, and I am very satisfied. First, I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to both riders who worked so hard and did a great job in such harsh conditions. I would also like to thank everyone on the team who supported the riders with everything they had. They truly showed what teamwork is about. Once again, our pit stops were the fastest, which made a big difference. All of our preparations paid off today. It wasn’t an easy race, but in the end, everything came together perfectly. It was a really fun and rewarding experience.”Koji Watanabe, President of Honda Racing Corporation“I would like to express my heartfelt gratitude to Honda HRC riders Takumi Takahashi and Johann Zarco, the team staff, and everyone else involved for their outstanding teamwork in securing victory despite the extreme heat and the pressure of aiming for a fourth consecutive title. Takahashi has set an incredible record by achieving his seventh victory at the Suzuka 8 Hours, breaking his previous record for the most wins at the event. I would also like to extend my respect to Johann Zarco for his contribution in continuing to compete this year. I would like to once again express my gratitude to all the sponsors who supported our participation and to all the fans who cheered us on during the race. Going forward, HRC will continue to take on the challenge to meet the expectations of motorsports fans and Honda fans alike. We look forward to your continued support and encouragement.” Copyright 2025 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Taiwanese Flavours Go Global: Duo Li Duo's Sugar-Free Dried Fruits Shine on the International Stage as a Beacon of Taiwan SeaPRwire

Taiwanese Flavours Go Global: Duo Li Duo's Sugar-Free Dried Fruits Shine on the International Stage as a Beacon of Taiwan

Taipei - August 05, 2025 - (SeaPRwire) - On the midnight slopes of Yujing, a gentle breeze rustles through the darkness. Heirloom Irwin mangoes hang heavily from the branches, their ripened aroma saturating the humid air. Inside the roasting room, the lights burn bright. For 72 hours, the low-temperature ovens have not ceased. Duo Li Duo founder Wang Duo-Li stands by the furnace, eyes fixed on the temperature curve, as if safeguarding a battle, a conversation with the land itself. She has lost count of how many nights she's spent here. Because to her, this isn't just dried fruit. It's the memory of Taiwan's soil, destined for the global stage. Crafted in Yujing, Tainan, the "Sugar-Free Golden Irwin Mango" by Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation is slow-baked at a low temperature for 72 hours, without added sugar or artificial flavouring. This product encapsulates founder Wang Duo-Li's deep reverence for the land and her dedication to craftsmanship. In 2025, it was awarded the prestigious Gold Medal at the Taiwan Top 100 Pastry Awards. (Image: Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation Facebook) On July 30, 2025, that belief was seen by the world. At the Taiwan Top 100 Pastry Awards, Duo Li Duo International Foods from Yujing, Tainan, won the highest honour—the Gold Award for its "Sugar-Free Golden Irwin Mango." Chosen from nearly 300 entries, this fruit snack contains no sugar, no artificial flavouring, only time, heat, and reverence for the land. It impressed professional judges both at home and abroad, and drew special coverage from media in Hong Kong, Japan, Malaysia, and Singapore, becoming a global spotlight and a true beacon of "Taiwanese brilliance." "In a world that prizes speed, we choose slowness. This is the rhythm we promised the land. True luxury is sugar-free," says Wang Duo-Li, founder of Duo Li Duo Foods Corporation. As a fifth-generation farmer, she understands that land demands patience. Despite a sharp drop in mango harvests in southern Taiwan this year, and a market flooded with artificially ripened fruit, she refused to compromise. Instead, she maintained a slower pace of natural ripening from old-growth trees. "We don't make dried fruit to chase speed. We make it to give the world an authentic taste of Taiwan." Wu Li-Ling, General Manager of Ingredients at Duo Li Duo and its affiliated company Hai Yi Food Corporation, emphasises that their success is not about a single product, but an upgraded agricultural system. "We want our consumers to taste not just flavour, but the land's true essence. We personally control the ripeness, aroma, and fibre quality of every batch of mangoes. That's the core confidence of Duo Li Duo." Wu Kun-Tai, Chief Marketing Officer, adds that the brand has built long-term partnerships with smallholder farmers across Yujing and surrounding regions. The company promotes circular farming, reduces carbon footprints, and supports young farmers returning to rural areas, all aligned with the United Nations' Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). "The more local we are, the more global we become. Our goal is to make Taiwanese dried fruit a cultural language in premium global markets, one that the world remembers through its palate." One standout result of this philosophy is the Four Seasons Fruit Gift Box, a signature product that has impressed international media. Inspired by the Eastern philosophy of "heaven as round, earth as square," the deep sapphire blue box is accented with a golden circular window. Inside, four varieties of dried fruit represent the essence of Taiwan's spring, summer, autumn, and winter. After its launch, orders and collaboration invitations surged from Singapore, Malaysia, Japan, Hong Kong, and beyond. To support its rapid global expansion, Duo Li Duo has heavily invested in supply chain innovation and digital infrastructure. Su Cheng-Cheng, Chief Information Officer, explains: "We've established cross-border e-commerce platforms and overseas warehousing hubs. We can now fulfil global orders with agility, giving Taiwanese dried fruit a world-class edge." In the first half of 2025, Duo Li Duo's products swept numerous accolades, including the Gold Award in the Taiwan Top 100 Pastry Selections, the New Wave Taste Silver Medal, and the prestigious iTQi Superior Taste Award from Belgium. The brand also received SGS food certifications and trilingual (Chinese-English-Simplified) labelling. Over the next three years, it aims to fully enter the European and American markets, participating in global showcases such as Belgium's iTQi, UK's Great Taste, and Japan's Foodex, expanding Taiwan's agricultural branding influence on a global scale. "What I often emphasize to the media is that we're not just selling dried fruit. We're telling the story of Taiwan's spirit through every bite. We don't compromise. We don't rush. We love the land and bring warmth to the world. When people around the globe taste Duo Li Duo's dried fruit, I hope they experience the depth of Taiwan's soil, remember the strength of this island, feel gratitude for life, and hold a deep respect for nature." From the hills of Yujing to the global stage, Duo Li Duo has spent a decade cultivating its vision, transforming a single slice of unsweetened dried mango into a "flavour ambassador" of Taiwanese culture, agricultural excellence, and sustainable values. This is more than a brand's triumph; it is Taiwan's declaration to the world, showcasing the strength of this land through the warmest, most heartfelt expression possible.

(SeaPRwire) - 1945年8月6日和8月9日,原子弹首次也是唯一一次被用于战争,八十年后,广岛和长崎袭击的幸存者们在《Atomic People》中讲述了他们在地面的经历,该纪录片将于8月4日在PBS播出。 自1941年日本袭击珍珠港以来,美国一直在开发原子弹。四年后,美国投下原子弹,广岛35万居民中约有7.8万人,长崎24万居民中约有4万人瞬间死亡。轰炸约一周后,即8月15日,日本宣布投降,并于9月2日正式签署文件,第二次世界大战结束。 大多数幸存者在原子弹投下时还是孩子,但他们能清晰地回忆起那些决定性的日子。 滴落的皮肉 幸存者们回忆说,最初看到了耀眼的光芒。在纪录片中,当时21岁的中村菊代说山看起来像着火了一样。广岛的学生们回忆说,一道强烈的光芒,一道刺眼的光芒在他们的教室里向他们疾驰而来。 幸存者说,原子弹的影响在现场立即显现。一名男子描述他家的屋顶瓦片碎裂,天花板上出现一个洞。Hiromu说天空看起来像“下火”一样。 小玉道子当时正在上学,她回忆说,天花板坠落时,她躲在桌子下面。窗户破碎,碎片飞溅到教室的课桌和椅子上。 Hiromu描述说,他看到一个人“脸上的皮像旧布一样耷拉着”,“皮肉像蜡烛油一样滴落”。小玉的父亲从学校接走了7岁的她,当他背着她时,她看到人们的皮肉融化——她称之为“地狱般的景象”。桐明千惠子15岁时看到受害者的腿部皮肤剥落。 随着受害者开始死亡,学生们不得不在他们的操场上为他们挖洞。“我火化了他们,”桐明说。广岛和平纪念公园下方埋葬着数万名受害者的遗骸。 劫后余生 失去家园的幸存者不得不建造营房。食物匮乏。幸存者描述他们去山里寻找有可食用水果的树木。他们甚至吃蜂巢里的蜂卵。正如三濑清一郎所说:“我们真的像穴居人一样生活。” 一位幸存者说她的父亲在胃部变得青紫并吐血后去世。到1945年底,广岛和长崎约有9万人死亡。 1945年19岁的伊黑清美在轰炸中没有立即受伤,但她认为她后来的人生中流产是由于原子弹的辐射暴露造成的。“我曾想过自杀,”她在纪录片中说,曾想服安眠药过量。一对夫妇,清水博和清水惠子,描述他们因害怕可能遗传的异常而不敢要孩子。中村说她的儿子成年后得了白血病,医生告诉她很可能是因为她当时在哺乳。 幸存者们获得了一些医疗救助和某种形式的赔偿,但争取更多赔偿和废除核武器的运动仍在进行中。纪录片以幸存者木户季市2023年在联合国发言结束,他谈到乌克兰和加沙战争的场景让他担心另一场核战争可能即将到来。幸存者们希望,《Atomic People》等关于原子弹毁灭性影响的证词能够阻止历史重演。 《Atomic People》将于美国东部时间8月4日晚10点首播。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。

为什么最佳领导者会拥抱他们内心的“傻瓜” Latest News

为什么最佳领导者会拥抱他们内心的“傻瓜”

(SeaPRwire) - 想象一下,在一个星期一的早晨,两位领导者走进了你的工作场所。第一位拥有常春藤盟校的学位,并且自我感觉良好;他们说着领英式的语言,并且准备好了回答那些没人问过的问题。第二位拥有相同的资历,用朴实的语言交谈,并首先询问团队他们面临的挑战,承认他们目前还没有解决方案。现在问问自己,你更愿意和谁一起工作?是完美的管理者,还是拥抱内心“傻瓜”,承认自己并非无所不知的领导者? 就我个人而言,我宁愿选择“笨蛋”也不要自以为是的万事通。 虽然传统的观点认为领导者必须表现出坚定不移的信心和专业知识,但拥抱自己的“愚蠢”实际上会更有效,并创造一个创新和诚实沟通蓬勃发展的环境。大多数高管害怕承认他们不知道的事情,但这种恐惧本身限制了他们的潜力。 当我第一次来到圣地亚哥,开始我在WD-40 Company的新角色时,我发现了成为房间里最“笨”的人的价值。一群高级领导聚集在一起,听取一位外部顾问分享关于公司发展方向的见解。作为一位新的高级领导,我面临着要掌控全局的压力。但在整个会议过程中,我觉得自己仿佛置身于一个梦境中,房间里的人们说着我听不懂的话,而只有我不明白一个字。 我环顾四周。每个人都点头表示同意,并做着笔记。难道真的只有我一个人在经历这场噩梦吗?好吧,我想是的。是时候开口了。“很抱歉打断一下,”我开始说道。“但我完全不知道你们在说什么。” 我原本以为自己会感到格格不入,显然不适合这个新职位。 然而,我惊讶地发现,房间里的压力发生了微妙的变化,每个人都如释重负地叹了口气。然后我突然意识到:如果我想成为一个有影响力的领导者,我的责任就是创造一个工作场所,让大家可以放心地承认自己并非无所不知。 几乎每个获得高级领导职位的人都认为他们应该拥有所有的答案。但他们最终会了解到,他们的工作是引导其他人从他们独特的角度出发,发展、了解和分享答案。如果你提出问题,让其他人发言,你会得到什么样的答案?你会了解到专家所知道的,在这个过程中扩展你的知识,并创造一个鼓励学习、实验和创新的环境。 是勇气。当领导者坦诚面对自己的挑战并邀请合作时,他们就能建立信任。这关乎展现你的人性,而非完美。一个每个人都敢于袒露心声的文化——不仅仅是领导者——是一个每个人都感到安全的文化,可以畅所欲言。没有这种安全文化,整个社区就会失去所有观点所带来的丰富益处。在这种类型的工作场所,我们珍视这样一个原则,即当我们以真诚和善意行事时,没有什么需要隐瞒的。通过分享我们的错误,我们为团队带来额外的智慧和知识。 当领导者认识到每一次失败的尝试——就像爱迪生为完善灯泡所做的1000次尝试一样——代表着进步,而不是失败时,最有效的团队才能蓬勃发展。通过模仿这种视角,领导者创造了一个让人们感到安全的环境,可以安全地进行创新,安全地尝试和失败,并且安全地取得成功,因为他们知道他们的社区会支持他们,无论结果如何。 我曾听说过关于领导职业的本质的一句话:“这是一项包裹在职业机会中的个人发展计划。” 事实证明,成为领导者的个人旅程也是通往更好的自我和致力于保护和支持彼此的更好社区的旅程。 领导力不是关于知道一切——而是关于承认你不知道的事情。放下虚张声势。拥抱你内心的“笨蛋”。这就是你解锁信任、创新和成功的方式。你的团队正在等待着你。 你会坚持确定性的幻觉,还是以无畏的真诚领导?最好的领导者选择脆弱。 任何“笨蛋”都能做到——现在轮到你了。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。 ```

洛杉矶山火,没能夺走我的一切

(SeaPRwire) - 淘筛。一个我词汇表里的新词。或者至少,在这个特定语境下,它是新的。 我习惯了将面粉筛入芝士蛋糕面糊中,将糖粉筛在新鲜出炉的饼干上。我在我那心爱的黄油色厨房里经常做这些。现在,那个厨房不见了,连同我的家,都在一月的大火中付之一炬,包括我那可爱的小镇Altadena。我正站在一家五金店里,寻找KN95口罩、护目镜、一双橡胶靴和一副超厚手套。我们离开已经三周了,虽然我听过那些回来的人讲述的故事,包括我丈夫,但我自己还没有回去查看损失。我一直躲在一个朋友的父母家,不停地与保险公司和银行通话,同时努力为我7个月大的儿子保持一张傻乎乎的大笑脸,但更重要的是,我无法鼓起勇气。 那是一栋特别的房子。我丈夫设计了它的每一寸空间,并用他自己的家具布置了每个房间。我们的第一个孩子就是在那里从出生中心被带回家的,在深夜的微光中。我在那个厨房里开发食谱并拍摄了一本烹饪书,在温馨的客厅里举办了无数次深夜派对,甚至还在岛台前拍摄了一张我哺乳儿子的广告牌宣传照。那栋房子承载了许多。它是一个家——不仅是我的家,也是每一个踏入它的人的家。即使你认识到生活中最重要的是家人的健康和安全,并且你真的相信这一点,失去的痛苦依然存在。如果我没有粗心地把我的订婚戒指落在浴室的首饰盒里,我可能根本就不会回来,更不用说在瓦砾堆里淘筛了。 你从不认为这种事会发生在你身上。这种悲剧发生在别人身上。一个朋友的表亲最好的朋友,隔了好几层关系。故事只通过口耳相传,二手传闻。在那个晚上我们逃离时,情况似乎很平静,然而我们的心告诉我们,在我们世界这个特殊角落里,在伊顿峡谷山脉下巢居的所有濒危房屋中,我们的家会被幸免。事情就是这样运作的。这是一种什么法则,虽然我不知道是什么。 我们撤离是出于过度谨慎,而非必要,听取了一些邻居和被吓坏了的朋友的建议,他们警告说,如果风向改变,大火可能会在夜里蔓延到我们这边。那天手机信号一直断断续续,电源也断了好几个小时,所以尽管城里有人低声谈论有火灾爆发,但关于离我们家半英里外燃烧山脊的消息却还没有传到我们耳边。“圣安娜风”是街头巷尾的说法,但洛杉矶人不怕安娜的这点小动作。我们对她的威力并不陌生,直到现在她都只是说说而已。你可以说她强劲但并无实威。 于是我们几乎什么都没带,只靠着一丝烛光指引。我们三个人只有一个行李箱,在黑暗中匆忙装好。卧室地板上一条皱巴巴的运动裤,床头柜抽屉里那件闪亮的黑色哺乳文胸,一个吸奶器,三本护照,儿子刚刚办好的出生证明,两台笔记本电脑,以及一件从来没有让我感到快乐的破旧黑色毛衣。它不合身,领口起球,而且——我怎么强调都不为过——它不值得成为除了那条运动裤之外,我名下留下的唯一一件衣物。 在接下来的日子和几周里,失去物品的心理快照会时不时地在我脑海中浮现。这些画面既受欢迎又不受欢迎。它们难以面对,但每一个都是微小的慰藉记忆,代表着一种充实、无畏、有意义的生活。我会在日常晨走时——一个几年前养成的习惯,让我感到完整并准备好面对新的一天——突然浮现出我床头柜里的物品:我最好、最老的朋友在我儿子出生那天写给我的便条,我们第一次超声波检查的照片条,以及一大堆至少17支我如今无比想念的被忽视的润唇膏。 总的来说,我的人生没有太多遗憾。我喜欢向前看,而不是回顾过去。但在那些日子里,我不断回到同一个问题:我当时在想什么?我怎么能拿起护照而不是我的订婚戒指呢?一个可替换的法律文件,而不是我婚姻的象征,我生命中除了我那可爱无比的儿子之外,最重要的关系? 当我第一次驱车驶过我们那条街,自它消逝以来,我什么都没感觉到。完全的震惊。彻底的无法理解。尽管我以为我对即将看到的一切有所预感,但你真的无法想象一块荒芜、烧焦、没有房屋的土地会是什么样子,直到你亲眼目睹。整个Altadena被夷为平地,干枯,毫无生气。那是一种如此难以想象的景象,以至于你的逻辑大脑会戛然而止。 我径直走进了瓦砾堆。我想潜意识里我是想感受点什么,我知道如果我把自己强行置于曾经称之为家的地方那如今已没有墙壁的界限之内,我就会有所感受。我默默地走过房子,辨认着那些融化变形的残骸,它们帮助我找到了方向。穿过车库,经过我旧Mercedes汽车的金属框架,走进厨房,在那里烧焦的铸铁平底锅指引着我,最后来到我们的卧室和浴室,那里之所以能辨认出来,仅仅是因为一堆仍然完整但变色的瓷砖,它们曾经铺在我们淋浴间里。我跪了下来,对眼前的任务感到不知所措,开始轻轻拂去灰烬。 它就在那里。我那蒙着灰尘、失去光泽、被压扁的订婚戒指。开始淘筛不到三秒钟,它就出现在我灵魂深处某个直觉告诉我它会在的地方。 自火灾以来,我被各种爱的表达所淹没。我的丈夫把一个悲伤的时刻变成了一个快乐的时刻,当我们在一次去商场买袜子的路上——因为我仅有的一双袜子已经变得又脏又破——他提醒我,我们一直都说生活中没有比一双干净袜子更大的奢侈了。我那幸福无知的儿子学会了用吸管喝水,然后一旦掌握了这项技能,立刻伸出手要我分享他美味的果汁。我们撤离后不到24小时,我哥哥就开车回到我们仍在冒烟的家,抢救下少数可辨认的物品,然后默默地把它们清理干净并妥善保管,直到他知道我情感上准备好接受它们。一位我素未谋面的女士给我发私信,提出要送来一袋杂货和一份家常炖羊肉。 我在瓦砾堆里跪了几分钟,泪水涌上眼眶。然后我把戒指放进口袋,回到了我的车上。 我拥有了我所需要的一切。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。

俄罗斯遭遇“历史性”火山喷发,此前数日刚发生大地震 Latest News

俄罗斯遭遇“历史性”火山喷发,此前数日刚发生大地震

(SeaPRwire) - 上周,当 袭击俄罗斯堪察加半岛时,它引发了海啸预警,海浪波及太平洋,远至美国、拉丁美洲,甚至新西兰。它也可能导致了一座长期休眠的火山喷发。 周日清晨,在这片人口稀少的半岛上,克拉舍宁尼科夫火山数百年来首次喷出白色火山灰云。堪察加火山喷发应对小组(KVERT)称其为“历史性”喷发。 Кадры первого в истории наблюдения извержения вулкана Крашенинникова на Камчатке:Видео: Камчатский филиал ФИЦ ЕГС РАН — ТАСС (@tass_agency) 关于这座火山上次已知喷发的具体时间存在一些差异。根据KVERT的说法,克拉舍宁尼科夫火山的“最后一次熔岩溢流”发生在1423年至1503年之间。根据史密森尼学会(Smithsonian Institution)的全球火山计划(Global Volcanism Program),那是在1550年左右。 火山喷发开始约9.5小时后,KVERT发布了一份警告,提醒飞机“大量火山灰排放到大气中”。卫星数据显示“爆炸将火山灰送至海平面以上8-8.5公里”(约5英里)。 据KVERT称,火山活动有所减弱,KVERT将航空警报降级为橙色,但据报道,喷发仍在持续,KVERT警告称“火山灰爆炸可随时达到海平面以上10公里(32,800英尺)。” 无危险 “羽流正从火山向东扩散至太平洋。其路径上没有人口稠密区。人口稠密区未记录到火山灰坠落。火山区域内没有注册的旅游团,”俄罗斯紧急情况部堪察加边疆区总局(Main Directorate of the Ministry of Emergency Situations of Russia for the Kamchatka Territory)表示。KVERT表示,到周一晚上,火山灰羽流已漂移超过500公里(超过300英里)。 克拉舍宁尼科夫火山位于克罗诺茨基自然保护区(Kronotsky Nature Reserve),该保护区在一份声明中表示,由于火山大部分被荒地环绕,因此对任何人或基础设施均无威胁。 “当然,火山喷发是一个生动有趣的事件,主要针对科学家,”该保护区主任Vsevolod Yakovlev在声明中说。但他补充道,克拉舍宁尼科夫火山的“喷发对于火山活动频繁的地区来说并非不同寻常。” 事实上,堪察加半岛于1996年被认定为联合国教科文组织世界遗产地(UNESCO World Heritage Site),因为它拥有“独特的火山特征。” 7月30日8.8级地震发生仅数小时后,半岛上的克留切夫火山,这座北半球最大的活火山便喷发了。一位美国地质调查局(U.S. Geological Survey)(USGS)代表告诉路透社,地震“并未导致”此次喷发,因为该火山在地震发生前的几天和几周内就已经“显示出不安的迹象”,尽管地震可能加剧了“喷发的强度,包括一些火山灰排放。” 地震和火山有何关联? 地震和火山活动都源于地球构造板块的运动。火山和地震活动在这些板块边界处很常见。 俄罗斯科学院远东分院火山学与地震学研究所(Institute of Volcanology and Seismology of the Far Eastern Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences)表示,上周的历史性地震与之后发生的火山活化之间存在“直接联系”。该研究所所长Alexey Ozerov表示,地震“激活了岩浆中心,向其中‘注入’了额外能量。” 克拉舍宁尼科夫火山的喷发可能并非完全由早前附近的8.8级地震触发,华盛顿大学(University of Washington)地震学与地质灾害学教授Harold Tobin告诉《纽约时报》。但Tobin指出,地震的地震波可能起到“摇松系统”的作用,从而使其得以实际喷发。 根据美国地质调查局(USGS)的数据,地震有时会引发火山喷发:“一些大型区域性地震(震级大于6级)被认为与随后的喷发或附近火山的某种活动不安有关。” 根据美国地质调查局(USGS)的说法,“火山只有在已经处于即将喷发的状态时,才可能被附近的构造地震触发喷发。”如果火山系统内已有足够的喷发性岩浆,且岩浆储存区域内存在显著压力,大型构造地震可能导致岩浆中的溶解气体逸出,从而增加压力并引发喷发,该机构表示,这类似于“摇晃过的汽水瓶”的效果。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。

HBO酸奶店谋杀案背后的骇人真相 Latest News

HBO酸奶店谋杀案背后的骇人真相

(SeaPRwire) - 三十三年前,一次本应是去德克萨斯州一家冷冻酸奶店的甜蜜之旅,却在1991年12月6日演变为一场悲剧,四名女孩被枪杀身亡。 Amy Ayers、Jennifer Harbison、Sarah Harbison 和 Eliza Thomas,都是年龄在13至17岁之间的青少年,她们在店后面的一间房间里被杀害并剥去衣物,之后店铺被纵火。这起数十年来一直未解决的案件,是新的HBO纪录片《The Yogurt Shop Murders》的主题,该片由导演。 该系列共四集,从8月3日星期日开始播出,探讨了所有关于谁谋杀了这些女孩的可能理论。片中包含对调查人员的采访——以及他们对嫌疑人的审问——受害者家属的采访,以及由当地奥斯汀纪录片制作人Claire Huie拍摄的罕见的嫌疑人录像。究竟这四名女孩为何被谋杀,至今仍是未知。 “我会在派对上,人们会开始谈论酸奶店谋杀案,”奥斯汀本地人Brown说。“这是奥斯汀神话的一部分,集体记忆的一部分,城市肌理的一部分。每个人都有一个理论。” 以下是关于《The Yogurt Shop Murders》第一集你需要知道的。 一次关键逮捕 《The Yogurt Shop Murders》的第一集以Huie拍摄的名为Robert Springsteen的男子在Macy's购物的镜头开始。他告诉售货员他刚从死囚牢房出来,正在为CBS的调查节目《48 Hours》和各种法庭出庭寻找得体的衣服。这一场景预示着观众将在接下来的几集中了解到Springsteen是如何重获自由的。 枪击案发生大约一周后,他被点名,当时警方逮捕了他的朋友,16岁的Maurice Pierce,他当时在I Can't Believe It's Yogurt!店附近的Northcross Mall Plaza的牛仔裤腰带里藏着一把上膛的手枪。这是警方一直在寻找的同类型手枪,因为他们在店里的一处水槽中发现了一颗子弹。 Pierce在被审问时没有承认有罪,但他供出了枪击案当晚他一起闲逛的另外几个人的名字:Michael Scott、Springsteen 和 Forrest Welborn。 Pierce说Forrest借走了他的枪,回来时满身是汗,闻起来有发胶味。第二天,四个男孩偷了一辆车,开车去圣安东尼奥看一个女孩,回来时,Maurice说Forrest再次要枪。当Maurice问为什么时,他说Forrest告诉他,他想像前一晚那样杀死更多的女孩。 观众将听到一段Maurice直接询问Forrest是否杀害了女孩的警方录音,而Forrest声称他只是开玩笑,并向他保证“我不会对你撒谎。”警方也从未找到证据证明他杀害了这些女孩。 犯罪现场的混乱是这个案件至今未解决的一个关键原因。警方没有实物证据将这四个男孩与犯罪联系起来,尽管他们确实确保从女孩身上提取了拭子以备将来DNA检测。店里没有视频监控,犯罪现场因灭火而被水覆盖,这使得寻找指纹和未受污染的证据变得困难。虽然警方可以追踪店里的信用卡交易,但他们无法追踪用现金支付的人。 执法部门关于酸奶店谋杀案的主要理论是,这是一起抢劫未遂。 家庭依然饱受创伤 在第一集中,受害者的家人回忆起1991年12月6日,仿佛就在昨天。Eliza Thomas的姐姐Sonora回忆说,当她听到这个消息时,牙齿不停地打颤,不得不把手放进嘴里才能止住。她清楚地记得,告诉她离异的父母女儿死讯时的尴尬。Sonora记得她紧张地打扫房子,而她的母亲把自己锁在卧室里,甚至拒绝出来和警察说话。在没有姐姐陪伴的第一个夜晚,Sonora Thomas回忆说:“我从未在姐姐不在世的一天醒来。” Shawn Ayers每天都想念他的妹妹Amy,他说:“没有一天不想她。”Pam Ayers每次看到孩子和动物,都会想起她的女儿Amy,因为Amy和另外三个女孩都是Future Farmers of America的成员。 Jennifer和Sarah Harbison的母亲Barbara Ayres-Wilson自失去女儿以来一直公开谈论这些谋杀案,希望这能帮助执法部门尽快破案。她回忆说,Jennifer和Sarah在遇害那天心情非常好,兴奋地要去酸奶店,Jennifer在那里工作。她送她们出门,并得到了每个女孩的拥抱,提醒她们要小心。然而,她仍然在想自己是否能做些什么不同,她说:“你只是有所有这些没有保护她们的遗憾……一个人怎么能好好地存在,然后就不在了呢?”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。

Arista Networks:一年展望

(SeaPRwire) - Arista Networks (NYSE:ANET) 已将自己打造成为云网络领域的关键参与者,为大型数据中心、云计算环境和企业网络提供高性能网络解决方案。展望未来一年,有几个因素将影响 Arista 的发展轨迹,包括增长机遇和潜在挑战。 Arista 增长的主要驱动力之一是对云计算和数据中心网络解决方案日益增长的需求。随着企业不断将其运营迁移到云端,对强大可靠的网络基础设施的需求变得至关重要。Arista 的产品组合,其中包括针对高速数据传输进行优化的交换机和路由器,使公司能够很好地抓住这一趋势。 此外,Arista 与 Amazon Web Services (AWS) 和 Microsoft Azure 等主要云服务提供商的强大合作伙伴关系凸显了其在市场中的战略地位。这些合作不仅提升了 Arista 的信誉,而且随着这些科技巨头扩展其云产品,也带来了稳定的收入来源。 然而,公司必须应对多项挑战以维持其增长势头。网络行业的竞争格局异常激烈,Cisco Systems 和 Juniper Networks 等主要参与者正在争夺市场份额。Arista 创新和差异化其产品的能力对于保持其竞争优势至关重要。 此外,全球供应链中断对 Arista 的运营构成潜在风险。影响各个行业的半导体短缺可能会影响 Arista 的产品制造和交付时间。公司必须确保制定健全的供应链战略以减轻这些风险。 展望未来,Arista 对软件定义网络 (SDN) 和网络自动化的关注带来了巨大的增长机遇。通过利用人工智能和机器学习的进步,Arista 旨在提高其网络解决方案的效率和可扩展性,以满足客户不断变化的需求。 总之,在对云网络解决方案日益增长的需求和其战略合作伙伴关系的推动下,Arista Networks 在未来一年有望实现增长。然而,公司必须对竞争和供应链问题带来的挑战保持警惕。通过优先考虑创新和运营弹性,Arista 可以在动态的科技格局中继续蓬勃发展。 脚注: 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。 Arista Networks 与主要云提供商的战略合作伙伴关系巩固了其市场地位。 半导体短缺可能会影响 Arista 的产品交付时间。

Taipei, Taiwan – August 04, 2025 – (SeaPRwire) – Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area Headquarters, Tourism Administration, M.O.T.C. (Taiwan), in collaboration with PRONews , is promoting a slow travel campaign aimed at reshaping the perception of Taiwan’s Alishan region. Traditional Song and Dance Performance at Yuyupas Tsou Cultural Park. While many associate Alishan with breathtaking sunrises, seas of clouds, and iconic railways, this initiative invites travelers to go beyond the scenery and immerse themselves in the region’s indigenous Tsou culture. This journey encourages a “no chasing clouds, no rushing sites” mindset, leading visitors into the heart of indigenous villages through guided tours, indigenous cuisine, nature experiences, and magical firefly nights. It’s a cultural retreat that engages all five senses while forging a deeper connection with the land and people. The recommended first stop is the Mihu Trail in the Laiji Village. This serene 2.3-kilometer bamboo path offers a shaded, gentle terrain ideal for hiking year-round. Led by Tsou elders, visitors are guided through tribal legends and plant knowledge. It’s a cultural immersion through stories heard and paths walked, offering a tranquil yet profound journey that blends forest nature with tribal humanity. The beauty of the forest is captivating, but it’s the local cuisine that brings Alishan’s cultural memory to life. A classic railway bento evokes nostalgia with every bite, best paired with unique local treats like the century-old hinoki doughnut, Granny’s herbal rice cakes, Ai-yu jelly from Uncle Ai-yu, and a traditional tea session at Qingtian Nong Tea House. For a Japanese-style afternoon delight, Zuiichi Teahouse serves sweets like mochi dango and monaka wafers, paired with mountain views and rustic wooden architecture. For a reservation-only meal, Shan Furong Tea Cuisine combines Tsou culinary heritage with forest-grown ingredients, offering seasonal vegetables harvested from their own farm. Each dish tells a story of living in harmony with the land and brings visitors closer to indigenous food culture. At the Yuyupas Tsou Cultural Tribe Park, visitors can witness the spirit of the Tsou people through immersive experiences. Surrounded by tea fields, coffee groves, and aromatic herbs, the park features cultural exhibitions and traditional music and dance performances. The campaign has garnered media attention through Dapeng Bay National Scenic Area Headquarters, Tourism Administration, M.O.T.C. (Taiwan) helping to amplify Alishan’s cultural visibility both locally and internationally. The rhythms of drums and songs resonate deeply, while guided tours of the Laiji area reveal stories and landscapes that stay with visitors long after they leave. While many visitors rush to catch the Alishan sunrise, the night holds its own wonders. From April to June, fireflies light up the forest like a living constellation. Many local hotels and homestays offer guided nighttime firefly tours, taking guests into secluded areas where they can witness this magical glow. Amid the stillness of night, the experience offers a dazzling and unforgettable connection with nature. Beyond village life and firefly forests, don’t miss the Guanyin Waterfall Scenic Area, one of Alishan’s most majestic natural sites. The trail is easy and family-friendly, taking about an hour round trip. While in the area, try some unique experiences: Jin Yang Xin Tea Dining – run by local tea farmers – serves elegant meals centered around tea soup rice and bamboo utensils, offering a refined space to appreciate nature and Confucian aesthetics. Meanwhile, the bamboo-roasted tea workshop allows visitors to engage in traditional tea-making, fusing local bamboo and tea leaves into an aromatic keepsake from the mountains. Bamboo-Roasted Tea Experience. Traveling to Alishan no longer means checking off sightseeing spots. Instead, it’s about walking alongside local people and reconnecting with the land. From bamboo trails to mountaintop meals, cultural villages to firefly nights, every stop is a stage where nature and culture meet. Slowing down in Alishan isn’t just a break from routine – it’s a meaningful journey of rediscovery. The real beauty here isn’t just in what you see, but in the stories, flavors, and laughter shared along the way.
