Focus Graphite Pilot Run Demonstrates Significant Increase in Large and Jumbo Flake Recovery at Lac Knife

Lac Knife Graphite meets and exceeds U.S. DoD standards while delivering ~47wt.% large flake recovery for advanced material markets in recent pilot run conducted by AETCOttawa, Ontario--(ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com - September 2, 2025) - Focus Graphite Inc. (TSXV: FMS) (OTCQB: FCSMF) (FSE: FKC0) ("Focus" or the "Company") a Canadian developer of high-grade flake graphite deposits in Quebec, is pleased to announce results from a continuous pilot beneficiation program performed by American Energy Technologies Company ("AETC") on its 100%-owned Lac Knife project. The adjustment from 97.8% total graphite content ("TGC") to 95% TGC resulted in a substantial increase in coarse flake recovery. Large and jumbo flakes increased from approximately 33% to 47%, materially improving economics and diversifying market opportunities in a product portfolio approach planned by Focus.To achieve these results, Focus commissioned AETC to run an upstream beneficiation circuit consisting of 18 processing units connected in series in a continuous locked-cycle campaign. Over 800 kilograms of Lac Knife graphite-bearing rock was processed, producing a concentrate that not only met market specifications but also preserved natural flake size. By producing concentrate in line with real-world demand specifications, Focus maximizes downstream value while enhancing exposure to premium, non-battery markets.In Focus's original pilot plant testing program conducted at SGS Minerals ("SGS") in Lakefield (2013-2014), the objective of achieving a graphite concentrate grade of 97.8% TGC at 90.7% total recovery was successfully met. These results formed the technical foundation of the Lac Knife Feasibility Study (updated 2023), which outlined a process plant designed to produce 50,000 tonnes per year of graphite concentrate, including 47,781 tonnes of high-grade 97.8% TGC salable concentrate from a feed grade of 14.8% TGC. The process flow sheet developed through this work includes crushing, grinding, polishing, flotation, concentrate dewatering and drying, concentrate screening and bagging, and tailings filtration and loadout. While the Feasibility Study demonstrated Lac Knife's ability to deliver ultra-high-purity graphite, subsequent market feedback confirmed that such high purities are not required - and do not command a price premium - in most anode or industrial applications.As a benchmark, the U.S. Defense Logistics Agency ("DLA") Strategic Materials program has defined procurement specifications for natural graphite as -100 mesh concentrate. Lac Knife material comfortably exceeds U.S. defense-grade requirements, while simultaneously aligning with anode makers' specifications for EVs and stationary energy storage.Specification DLA RequirementFocus Graphite - AETC PilotFixed Carbon (TGC)≥ 94%95.5%Ash≤ 5%4.5%Volatile Matter≤ 1.2%0.63 wt.% (600 °C)Moisture≤ 0.5%<0.5%Size Distribution<20% retained above 100 mesh; ≤20% passing below 325 meshD10 = 33 µm; D50 = 120 µm; D90 = 272 µm; mean 153 µm Table 1: DLA Strategic Materials Program Benchmark vs. Focus Graphite Lac Knife AETC Pilot ResultsNote: As of August 2025, The DLA has indicated its intent to source 49,433 tonnes of natural flake graphite over the next five years (CIP-Hammond, Indiana)Coarse graphite flakes are rare and command premium pricing in markets where physical size is the key differentiator. On October 20, 2023, China announced its restrictions on certain graphite exports to the United States and other counties, with the new regulations taking effect on December 1, 2023. These rules, requiring export permits for high-grade natural and synthetic graphite products, were introduced under the banner of protecting China's national security. Most projects worldwide produce very little of this unique material. With its coarse flake profile, Lac Knife positions Focus to supply several high-margin speciality applications:Jumbo flake (+30, +25, +20 mesh; ~5% of total, up to 0.84 mm in size) - High-end EMI shielding in electronics and defense equipment, corrosion resistant gaskets in marine and aerospace, crucibles for specialty alloys and rare earth processing, radar absorbing and steal composites, icephobic for aircraft and ships, precursor for graphene platelets.+50 mesh (~15%) and +80 mesh (~24%) - Expandable and expanded graphite for fire-suppressant foams. With PFAS-based aqueous film-forming foams ("AFFF"), otherwise known as forever chemicals, being phased out amid billion-dollar lawsuits, demand for safe, graphite-based alternatives is expected to surge. Processed graphite generated from these flake sizes are also used in lead-acid and premium performance alkaline batteries.+100 mesh - Recently proven in a hypersonic rocket nozzle launch, this fraction is valued in aerospace, defense, semiconductor and advanced materials markets.-100 mesh - Tailored for the battery-grade anode market in both EVs and stationary battery energy storage systems ("BESS") applications, ensuring compliance with global demand.Additionally, Lac Knife graphite demonstrates exceptionally low volatile content, a critical property for the most demanding nuclear and defense applications. While many companies can produce standard battery-grade graphite, nature rarely yields deposits with such a high proportion of coarse flakes. Lac Knife's increase in large and jumbo flake recovery from approximately 33% to 47% further strengthens Focus's strategic position. This advantage not only supports advanced processing pathways but also enables the Company to deliver environmentally friendly materials to market, creating opportunities to replace PFAS-based "forever chemicals" with safer, sustainable alternatives."The results from this pilot program reinforce Lac Knife's unique position as one of the few graphite projects capable of delivering both defense-grade and battery-grade material at scale," said Dean Hanisch, CEO of Focus Graphite. "By achieving market-aligned concentrate specifications, we are not only positioned to supply the EV and energy storage sectors, but also to serve premium aerospace, defense, and specialty markets. This dual-market advantage reduces risk, expands opportunity, and underscores Focus Graphite's role as a strategic supplier in North America's critical minerals supply chain."It should be noted that this pilot program was conducted on more than 800 kilograms of Lac Knife graphite, and while the results are consistent with expectations, they may not fully represent the variability of the entire deposit. Focus intends to conduct larger scale testing in the future.Image 1: Focus Graphite Lac Knife Natural Flake Graphite Master Concentrate, C of ATo view an enhanced version of this graphic, please visit:https://images.newsfilecorp.com/files/1963/264723_7a22223b44e3fbc5_001full.jpgQualified PersonsThe technical content disclosed in this news release was reviewed and approved by Réjean Girard, P.Geo.

Eisai Initiated Rolling Supplemental Biologics License Application to the U.S. FDA for LEQEMBI(R) IQLIK(TM) (lecanemab-irmb) as a Subcutaneous Starting Dose for the Treatment of Early Alzheimer’s Disease Under Fast Track Status

TOKYO and CAMBRIDGE, Mass., Sept. 3, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Eisai Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Tokyo, CEO: Haruo Naito, “Eisai”) and Biogen Inc. (Nasdaq: BIIB, Corporate headquarters: Cambridge, Massachusetts, CEO: Christopher A. Viehbacher, “Biogen”) announced today that Eisai has initiated the rolling submission of the Supplemental Biologics License Application (sBLA) to the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for lecanemab-irmb (U.S. brand name: LEQEMBI®) subcutaneous autoinjector(SC-AI), LEQEMBI IQLIK, as a weekly starting dose after the FDA granted Fast Track Status. LEQEMBI is indicated for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD) in patients with Mild Cognitive Impairment(MCI) or mild dementia stage of disease (collectively referred to as early AD).The sBLA is based on evaluation of subcutaneous (SC) lecanemab administration across a range of doses and as part of sub-studies within the Phase 3 Clarity AD open-label extension (OLE), following the 18-month core study in individuals with early AD. Should the FDA approve the LEQEMBI IQLIK 500mg SC dosing regimen (two 250 mg injections), the autoinjector could be used to administer a once weekly starting dose, as an alternative to bi-weekly (every two weeks) intravenous (IV) dosing. This would expand the option for patients and care partners to receive LEQEMBI treatment from initiation to maintenance at home, offering a choice between IV and SC administration. The current injection time for each LEQEMBI IQLIK autoinjector takes approximately 15 seconds. The SC formulation also has the potential to reduce healthcare resources associated with IV maintenance dosing, such as preparation for infusion and nurse monitoring, while streamlining the overall AD treatment pathwayAD is a progressive, relentless disease with amyloid beta (Aβ) and tau as hallmarks that is caused by a continuous underlying neurotoxic process that begins before amyloid plaque removal and continues afterward.1,2,3 Only LEQEMBI fights AD in two ways – targeting both amyloid plaque and protofibrils*, which can impact tau downstream. LEQEMBI is currently approved in 48 countries and is under regulatory review in 10 countries. Eisai serves as the lead for lecanemab’s development and regulatory submissions globally with Eisai and Biogen co-commercializing and co-promoting the product and Eisai having final decision-making authority.*Protofibrils are believed to contribute to the brain injury that occurs with AD and are considered to be the most toxic form of 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.2 INDICATIONLEQEMBI® is indicated for the treatment of Alzheimer’s disease (AD). Treatment with LEQEMBI should be initiated in patients with mild cognitive impairment (MCI) or mild dementia stage of disease, the population in which treatment was initiated in clinical trials. For more details, please visit: https://www.eisai.com/news/2025/pdf/enews202560pdf.pdf  Copyright 2025 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

莫迪無法與川普斷絕關係

(SeaPRwire) -   本週末,在中國天津舉行的上海合作組織峰會吸引了全世界的目光。大部分評論都集中在印度總理納倫德拉·莫迪的出席上,這是他七年來首次訪問中國。來自天津的照片顯示莫迪與中國國家主席習近平和俄羅斯總統普丁在一起。 這引發了兩種敘事。第一種是,莫迪因美國總統唐納德·川普對印度出口產品加徵高額關稅而感到不滿,正在轉向中國:川普將一位美國朋友推向了美國敵人的懷抱。第二種是,莫迪抵達天津預示著一個新的全球聯盟的崛起——由中國領導,俄羅斯和印度支持——以對抗美國。 我的觀點是:這兩種結論都過於倉促,未能考慮到印度無法負擔與美國斷絕關係的冷酷經濟和地緣政治現實。 無可否認,川普對印度的行為令人髮指。有可靠報導表明,美國總統對印度出口產品加徵關稅很大程度上是出於惡意。 今年早些時候,川普錯誤地宣稱促成了印度與巴基斯坦之間的和平協議,他希望莫迪公開表達感謝,並提名他角逐諾貝爾和平獎。巴基斯坦總理做到了,但莫迪拒絕配合,這激怒了川普。 關稅,加上川普對印度「死氣沉沉的經濟」的輕蔑評論,使得莫迪難以維持他與這位美國領導人建立了特殊友誼的長期敘事。數月以來,新德里的官員一直在誇耀他們的總理是川普在亞洲的主要盟友,而且美國將印度視為對抗中國的重要屏障。 現在,川普已經表明他對莫迪和印度多麼不屑一顧。 有理由假設,如果關稅談判進展順利,莫迪可能就不會去天津。一方面,他長期以來對習近平抱持著近乎敵意的懷疑,並一直避免訪問印度這個龐大的鄰國,以表達對中國對印政策的不滿。這些政策包括對巴基斯坦的經濟、軍事和外交支持,以及對印度領土的侵略性主張,伴隨著邊境的土地掠奪和衝突。 另一方面,莫迪也不會樂意與其他許多與會者並肩而行,例如巴基斯坦的夏巴茲·謝里夫和土耳其的雷傑普·塔伊普·艾爾段;後者最近因在二月份的印巴小規模戰爭中偏袒伊斯蘭馬巴德而受到新德里的譴責。峰會上的大多數國家都由某種形式的獨裁者代表——例如伊朗的馬蘇德·佩澤什基安和白俄羅斯總統亞歷山大·盧卡申科。 印度總理的出席為這次「賤民」大遊行增添了一些民主光彩。(印尼的普拉伯沃·蘇比安托臨時取消了行程。)這滿足了習近平的虛榮心——遠比諾貝爾提名更能滿足川普的——以及他的地緣政治野心。這也會讓普丁感到高興,因為這位俄羅斯領導人可以聲稱自己拉近了亞洲巨頭的關係。 實際上,莫迪從美國的主要盟友變成了中國宴會上的「三把手」。在天津鏡頭前再多的笑容也無法掩飾這一下降。 但这並不意味著印度正在向東方轉向,脫離美國。赤裸裸的現實是,它根本負擔不起這樣做。 關鍵在於經濟,傻瓜。印度對美國的出口每年接近900億美元,遠遠超過其對上海合作組織所有成員國的總出口額。習近平和普丁可以對莫迪微笑,但他們無法彌補川普關稅造成的出口收入損失。中國和俄羅斯想要向印度出售更多產品,而不是從印度購買更多產品。 關鍵也在於地緣政治,傻瓜。儘管人們談論著中國龍和印度象的擁抱,但事實是,北京視新德里為一個競爭對手——更像是一個傲慢的競爭者——需要不時地敲打。中國將繼續是巴基斯坦的主要贊助者,並將繼續聲稱大片印度領土。印度也不可能放棄與美國和其他亞洲國家的軍事聯盟,這些聯盟在北京看來是不友善的,但在新德里看來卻是生死攸關的。 僅憑這些原因,莫迪就知道他不能偏離華盛頓的軌道太遠。他需要找到一個挽回顏面的方式與川普和解:印度的經濟和安全都依賴於此。 目前,印度外交官和在華盛頓的遊說者們正不遺餘力地推動兩國和解。他們可能曾希望川普看到莫迪與習近平笑容滿面的照片,並對失去一位美國朋友的前景感到警惕。機會渺茫:川普對莫迪天津之行的反應是輕蔑的,他聲稱印度正提議取消對美國商品的所有關稅。 所有這些都不會被習近平忽略。作為一個地緣政治現實主義者,中國國家主席會知道莫迪出席他的宴會充其量只是權宜之計,並不預示著一段美好的友誼的開始。 他也一定知道,沒有印度,他對抗美國和西方的宏偉聯盟將無法啟動。印尼和土耳其等國家將始終小心翼翼地保持兩邊下注。當莫迪與川普和解後,習近平將只剩下普丁和其他「賤民」。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

比利時將在聯合國大會上承認巴勒斯坦國並制裁以色列

(SeaPRwire) -   比利時週二宣布有意承認巴勒斯坦國,近期也有其他國家發表了類似聲明。 比利時副總理兼外交部長Maxime Prévot表示,這項附帶特定條件的承認將在即將於9月9日在紐約舉行的聯合國大會上重申。 這項承認預計將「透過皇家法令」敲定,但前提是「最後一名人質獲釋」,且Hamas不再在該地區行使任何形式的管治權。 Prévot還誓言「將對以色列政府施加嚴厲制裁」,並「將更嚴厲地起訴任何反猶太主義或Hamas支持者對恐怖主義的頌揚行為」。 Prévot補充說:「這不是要制裁以色列人民,而是要確保其政府尊重國際法和人道法,並希望促使當地局勢有所改善。」 這位副總理表示,將對以色列、其政府以及來自被佔領約旦河西岸以色列定居點的產品實施12項制裁。 Prévot表示,制裁還包括「將兩名以色列極端主義部長、多名暴力定居者和Hamas領導人列為我國的『不受歡迎人物』」,但他拒絕指明是哪兩位以色列部長。 TIME已聯繫比利時和以色列外交部尋求評論。 加拿大、澳洲、紐西蘭、挪威和英國政府於六月聯合對以色列國家安全部長Itamar Ben-Gvir和財政部長Bezalel Smotrich實施制裁,後者是定居點擴張的堅定支持者,原因為「對巴勒斯坦人權的集體懲罰和嚴重侵犯」。 週二,Ben-Gvir譴責比利時有意承認巴勒斯坦國的決定。 Associated Press引述Ben-Gvir的話說:「這些被Hamas操縱的自以為是的歐洲國家,最終將親身感受到恐怖主義的滋味。」 比利時表示,其決定是「面對以色列違反國際法所實施的暴力」,以及「考慮到其國際義務,包括預防任何種族滅絕風險的職責」而做出的。 International Association of Genocide Scholars (IAGS)週一發布一項決議,指出以色列的「行為構成種族滅絕」,並引用「聯合國1948年《預防及懲治滅絕種族罪公約》第二條」。 以色列在以哈戰爭期間多次否認種族滅絕的指控,稱其擁有自衛權。以色列外交部譴責IAGS的決議,稱其為「法律界和任何學術標準的恥辱」。 發言人Oren Marmorstein聲稱:「這完全是基於Hamas的謊言宣傳以及他人對這些謊言的洗白。」 以色列目前正在International Court of Justice應對種族滅絕的指控,自2023年12月南非指控其對加沙居民犯下種族滅絕罪以來。 比利時的宣布也正值國際社會對加沙日益增長的人道危機的擔憂之際。一個由U.N.支持的糧食安全機構最近證實,自以哈戰爭爆發以來,加沙已首次出現全面饑荒。 週二,活動家Greta Thunberg等人再次搭乘Global Sumud Flotilla船隊出發前往加沙,試圖向該地區運送援助物資。 他們從突尼西亞首都突尼斯啟航,加入其他船隻前往加沙。Thunberg和其他活動家在六月曾被逮捕並驅逐出境,當時他們試圖抵達加沙。 以哈戰爭始於2023年10月7日Hamas對以色列發動的恐怖襲擊,造成超過1,200人死亡並劫持約250名人質。自戰爭爆發以來,超過63,000名巴勒斯坦人被殺,其中361人死於「飢餓和營養不良」,據加沙衛生部報告。 由於當地缺乏獨立監測,該部是人道主義團體、記者和國際機構所依賴的傷亡數據主要來源。其數字不區分平民和戰鬥人員,且無法由TIME獨立核實。IDF的數據顯示,死亡人數遠低於該部報告的數字。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

川普可能宣布全國房屋緊急狀態:需知

(SeaPRwire) -   財政部長斯科特·貝森特(Scott Bessent)表示,唐納·川普(Donald Trump)總統可能在今年秋天宣布國家住房緊急狀態。 此舉將使住房可負擔性成為2026年中期選舉前的一個關鍵議題,這似乎是川普政府的首要考量。這將是自住房泡沫破裂導致美國陷入2008年金融危機以來,首次宣布與住房相關的國家緊急狀態。 「我們可能會在秋季宣布國家住房緊急狀態,」貝森特週一告訴。 「我們正在努力弄清楚能做些什麼,而且我們不想介入州、縣和市政府的業務,」貝森特說。「我認為一切皆有可能。」 以下是您需要了解的。 宣布國家緊急狀態有何作用? 根據1976年《國家緊急狀態法》,總統可以自行決定宣布國家緊急狀態。該法案沒有明確定義何謂「緊急狀態」,但它確實要求總統發布正式聲明,例如透過行政命令,並在聲明中引用他計劃使用的法定權力。 宣布國家緊急狀態允許總統繞過國會採取法律定義的一系列行動,以及如果國會宣布國家緊急狀態,還可額外行使13項法定權力。在他的第二任期內,川普迄今為止已宣布了9次緊急狀態,主要涉及移民和貿易,以及在10月份的第10次聲明。川普已利用其緊急權力對世界大部分地區施加關稅,並賦予軍方對移民執法的監督權。 國會可以通過立法終止國家緊急狀態,儘管總統可以否決該決議,除非達到超級多數。否則,只要每年重申一次,國家緊急狀態理論上可以永遠持續下去。 然而,國家緊急狀態及其期間採取的行動也可能在法庭上受到質疑。上週,一家聯邦上訴法院裁定,川普的大部分關稅均屬非法,儘管川普很可能會在10月14日生效前對該決定提出異議。今年5月,15位民主黨州總檢察長也提起訴訟,試圖阻止川普的國家能源緊急狀態,他們認為並不存在緊急情況,並指控川普1月20日的行政命令被非法用於規避對化石燃料項目的審查。該訴訟仍在進行中。 川普因其廣泛使用國家緊急狀態聲明而被批評為行政權力過度擴張。一些專家也普遍批評了美國緊急狀態聲明的法律框架,左傾智庫 Brennan Center for Justice 的 Elizabeth Goitein 稱其「易於宣布,難以停止。」 美國存在住房危機嗎? 美國的住房危機在過去二十年間不斷發展,由供應短缺所驅動,並在2008年金融危機之後、住房泡沫破裂後加速惡化。一些估計表明,美國短缺數百萬套住房,而在大紐約和洛杉磯地區,房價則讓人難以負擔。 COVID-19疫情後,危機進一步惡化,疫情擾亂了建築業,隨後為對抗通膨而提高了利率。疫情也透過勞動力短缺和供應鏈中斷加劇了問題。美國中位數房價的月供已飆升。一些專家警告說,氣候變遷正在加劇這場危機,因為許多房屋對日益頻繁和嚴重的自然災害保險不足。另一些人則認為,機構投資者購買房屋用於出租的增長也助長了這個問題。 「現在,全國各地,像波士頓這樣的地方,房價是收入的五倍……在加州的高成本市場,房價是收入的十倍,」Harvard University’s Joint Center for Housing Studies 的常務董事 Chris Herbert 去年十月告訴 Harvard Magazine。 「我們如何降低住房成本?」他補充道。「因為我們必須認為,私營部門應該能夠提供讓有穩定工作的人負擔得起的住房。」 川普可能採取哪些行動? 貝森特拒絕透露川普是否正在考慮任何具體行動來解決住房可負擔性問題。他表示,政府官員正在研究如何標準化地方建築和分區法規以及降低交易成本,並補充說,川普可能會考慮對某些建築材料實施關稅豁免。 在他的2024年總統競選期間,川普表示他將透過提供住房開發激勵措施和削減法規來解決住房危機。他也一直主張聯準會的高利率損害了住房市場,因為他已向聯準會施壓要求降息。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

(SeaPRwire) -   幾年前,這位曾於2020年贏得美國公開賽、坐擁四座大滿貫冠軍的選手,在生下第一個孩子女兒Shai兩個月後,以觀眾身份來到亞瑟艾許球場(Arthur Ashe Stadium)。大坂直美與奧運冠軍一同身處紐約市,與當時的美國衛生局長維維克·穆爾蒂(Vivek Murthy)一同參與了一場關於運動員心理健康的。隔天晚上,她觀看了美國選手擊敗卡羅琳娜·穆霍娃(Karolína Muchová)進入準決賽,那正是高芙(Gauff)在2023年美國公開賽奪冠之旅中的一部分。 在觀看高芙比賽的那一刻,現年27歲的大坂直美曾懷疑自己是否還能再次達到如此高的水準。但她仍能想像自己重返亞瑟艾許球場,在美國公開賽後期為另一項大滿貫冠軍而戰。「或許我瘋了之類的,」大坂直美在週一的第四輪比賽中,以6-3、6-2的比分擊敗世界排名第三、法國公開賽衛冕冠軍高芙後說道,該場比賽僅耗時約一小時。「但我總覺得你必須先想像它,然後再相信它,它才會真正實現。」 「你也在跟那個曾幻想與小威廉絲(Serena Williams)對戰的孩子說話,」大坂直美接著說,提及她在美國公開賽決賽中令人難忘的。「所以我認為夢想和信念蘊含著巨大的力量。」 她需要這一切。自從2021年澳洲公開賽奪冠以來,大坂直美在經歷了公開的心理健康挑戰和其他困難後,難以重返巔峰。她曾說,在女兒Shai出生後,她經歷了「極度糟糕的」產後抑鬱,而自2024年重返職業網壇以來,她在今年美國公開賽之前,僅有兩次闖入大滿貫第三輪:事實上,大坂直美去年在澳洲公開賽和美國公開賽首輪出局,今年法國公開賽也止步首輪。在巴黎那場失利後的新聞發布會上,她提到了當時的教練派屈克·穆拉托格魯(Patrick Mouratoglou),他曾與小威廉絲合作。「他從和史上最偉大的球員合作,到『這到底是什麼鬼東西?』」大坂直美說道。她含淚離去。 然而,大坂直美在今年美國公開賽上的表現,應能大大消除任何(無論是自找的還是其他原因造成的)關於她再次奪冠機會的不確定性。她對高芙這位大坂直美在世界上最高薪女運動員地位的繼任者,取得了決定性的勝利,使大坂直美在週二的八強賽中,對陣來自捷克(Czechia)的第11種子卡羅琳娜·穆喬娃(Karolina Muchovia)。 大坂直美曾四次闖入大滿貫賽事的八強。這四次她都贏得了冠軍。 大坂直美在體育界的地位是穩固的:在成為母親並花費數年時間找回節奏後,再次爭奪冠軍只會為她無論場上還是場下的傳奇錦上添花。為抗議2020年威斯康辛州(Wisconsin)雅各布·布萊克(Jacob Blake)遭警方槍擊事件,身為黑人和日本人、在美國長大但代表日本參賽的大坂直美宣佈她將不參加下一場比賽:整個賽事很快暫停,之後大坂直美和其他選手才重返賽場。 當年她爭奪美國公開賽冠軍的過程中,她令人難忘地戴著印有據稱是警方或種族主義暴力受害者的黑人受害者名字的口罩。隔年,她退出了法國公開賽,以照顧自己的身心健康,這項決定引發了對運動員心理健康困境的。大坂直美在2021年法國公開賽後說道:「不舒服也沒關係。」同時,批評者嘲笑她的立場,以及美國體操運動員西蒙娜·拜爾斯(Simone Biles)當年因心理健康原因退出東京奧運會(大坂直美點燃了聖火)全能比賽的決定。 大坂直美在某些圈子裡持續成為眾矢之的:在今年加拿大公開賽決賽中,她在比賽結束後未能當場祝賀維多利亞·姆博科(Victoria Mboko),該場比賽由姆博科獲勝。批評者指出,大坂直美後來表示她無意中忘記了這樣做。 那場於七月和八月在蒙特婁(Montreal)舉行的加拿大公開賽,似乎讓大坂直美的賽季出現轉機。她指出,與柳德米拉·薩姆索諾娃(Liudmila Samsonova)的第二輪比賽是關鍵時刻,她在那場比賽中挽救了兩個賽點。「我長期以來都非常沮喪,因為我覺得我打得很好,但總有些我不知道是缺失了什麼,還是只是一種心態上的問題,」大坂直美說道。「然後我對陣薩姆索諾娃,直到最後一分都沒有放棄。顯然,我最終贏得了那場比賽。我認為從那一刻起,我就努力成為我能做到的最大鬥士。」 儘管大坂直美在與高芙這場備受期待的對決中表現強勁,但這位美國選手在比賽中也因自己的失誤而受挫,非受迫性失誤達到33次,而大坂直美只有12次。在美國公開賽之前,高芙做出了令人驚訝的換教練決定,請來生物力學專家加文·麥克米蘭(Gavin MacMillan)來調整她不穩定的發球。雖然高芙的發球表現不錯——她只發了五次雙誤(大坂直美為零),與大坂直美的ACE球數相同(各3次),甚至比大坂直美打進更多的第一發球(66%對42%),同時第一發球速度也基本與大坂直美持平(每小時104.1英里對大坂直美的每小時104.8英里)——但她在比賽中最有信心的部分,包括底線抽球和接發球,卻出現了失誤。 「我今天醒來時想著,『哦,這對我來說將是個打得好的一天,』然後上場後我就是不知道發生了什麼,」高芙賽後說道。「我在場上感覺非常混亂,因為就像是我發球很好,但接發球卻不好。過去兩年,大家都會同意這是一種奇怪的想法。」 高芙與麥克米蘭的合作仍處於起步階段,而她的發球已經顯示出改善的跡象,加上她21歲的年齡預示著她未來潛力的巔峰時期,她承諾在輸給大坂直美後不會過於氣餒。「我不會讓這件事擊垮我,」高芙說道。 談到韌性,大坂直美現在可以為高芙指明方向。在過去近五年裡,大坂直美沒有讓失望和批評者讓她脫離軌道。她顯然在紐約玩得很開心。週一,她展示了她最新的,這是一個來自 POP MART 的閃閃發光的毛絨玩具,她將其命名為阿爾西亞·格利特森(Althea Glitterson)(陪同她參加美國公開賽的其他鑲寶石的拉布布(Labubu)包括比利·珍·布林(Billie Jean Bling)和)。 隨著高芙的淘汰,大坂直美肯定會成為女子籤表中情感上的奪冠熱門。她的復出故事實在太引人入勝了。 「這是世界上我最喜歡的球場,」她在賽後對亞瑟艾許球場的球迷說道。「能夠回到這裡對我意義重大。」 本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

歐洲北約成員國「缺乏政治意願」- 美國特使

(SeaPRwire) -   盟友們正期待美國在烏克蘭事務上發揮領導作用,馬修·惠特克表示 美國駐歐盟特使馬修·惠特克表示,歐洲北約(NATO)成員國在烏克蘭衝突問題上猶豫不決。 這位外交官週二在斯洛維尼亞舉行的布萊德戰略論壇(Bled Strategic Forum)上發表了上述言論。 「我認為,相信美國能夠下令停止戰鬥,並且俄羅斯或烏克蘭——任何一方——就會停止戰鬥,這是非常天真的,」惠特克說。 他批評北約(NATO)「缺乏政治意願」,並且不願在沒有美國參與的情況下採取任何重大舉措。他指出,美國已向烏克蘭提供了超過一半的軍事援助。 惠特克補充說:「眾所周知,我們的盟友,所有北約盟友,都沒有政治意願採取必要措施來阻止這場戰爭。」「歐洲可以派兵,但沒有人願意這麼做。」 惠特克的言論發表之前,歐盟委員會主席烏爾蘇拉·馮德萊恩(Ursula von der Leyen)曾表示,該集團針對衝突解決後向烏克蘭部署一支多國部隊有「相當精確的計畫」。然而,德國國防部長鮑里斯·皮斯托利斯(Boris Pistorius)駁斥了這些言論,他表示歐盟對此事沒有「管轄權或權限」。 俄羅斯一再表示,即使打著維和人員的幌子,它也絕不容忍任何西方軍隊出現在烏克蘭領土上。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

以色列開始大規模動員以攻佔加沙城 – Jerusalem Post

(SeaPRwire) -   據報將有約4萬名預備役軍人被召集參與攻勢 數萬名以色列預備役軍人已開始報到,因以色列國防軍(IDF)正準備發動新攻勢以完全控制加薩市,The Jerusalem Post週二報導。以色列陸軍電台稱,預計將有約4萬名預備役軍人被召集。 據報,總理本雅明·內塔尼亞胡及其安全內閣要求加快行動的壓力,遭到了軍方的反對。The Post寫道,在週日一場激烈的內閣會議上,以色列國防軍總參謀長埃亞爾·扎米爾呼籲達成停火協議,警告稱此次行動可能危及仍在加薩被扣押的人質,並使軍隊過度擴張。 據在場官員透露,以色列國防軍表示,由於後勤和人道主義考量,至少在兩個月內無法展開行動,因為需要更多時間向加薩的平民提供援助,那裡飢餓現象已蔓延。 此前,扎米爾與內塔尼亞胡內閣上個月也發生過類似的意見交換,當時總理命令軍方加快攻佔他所稱的哈馬斯最後據點的時間表。 路透社報導,一些預備役軍人也對政府的計畫表達了不滿。該媒體引用的調查顯示,軍隊內部存在顯著的不滿,一些人指出缺乏明確的勝利策略。一名戰鬥預備役軍人匿名告訴路透社:「我感覺我做的任何事情都沒有真正對哈馬斯釋放人質施加足夠的壓力。」 以色列上個月發動了最新的加薩市行動,目標是哈馬斯指揮中心、武器藏匿處以及嵌入平民區的隧道網絡。據巴勒斯坦當局稱,超過1,000座建築物已被摧毀,導致數百人被困在瓦礫下,數千人無家可歸。 以色列表示,這次行動對於國家安全是必要的,目標是消除哈馬斯的基礎設施。 這場衝突始於2023年10月7日,當時該武裝組織對以色列南部發動襲擊,造成約1,200人死亡並劫持了250名人質。約有50人仍被囚禁。加薩衛生部表示,自那以來,以色列的襲擊已造成超過62,000人死亡,約156,000人受傷。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

(SeaPRwire) -   斯洛伐克總理表示他「不理解」布魯塞爾的一些決定 斯洛伐克總理羅伯特·費科(Robert Fico)聲稱,布魯塞爾脫離了全球現實,往往未能適應不斷變化的世界。 費科是在週二於中國與俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普丁(Vladimir Putin)會晤時發表上述言論的,此次會晤是在二戰結束80週年紀念活動期間舉行的。 他表示,儘管斯洛伐克珍視其在 NATO 和 EU 的成員資格,但仍對與俄羅斯關係正常化感興趣。 「EU 的許多人就像井底之蛙,無法看到外面的世界」 他強調:「儘管我高度尊重 EU,但我很失望它無法應對全球發展,而且我不理解它的一些決定。」 自2023年重新上任以來,費科在烏克蘭問題上與布魯塞爾的立場截然不同。他停止了斯洛伐克對基輔的武器交付,反對對莫斯科的制裁,並警告烏克蘭加入 NATO 的風險。他一再呼籲舉行和平談判,這一立場使他成為一名親烏克蘭活動分子發動的險些致命的暗殺未遂事件的目標。 普丁則告訴費科,他不想通過批評 NATO 和 EU 讓其陷入尷尬境地,但他嘲笑了西方官員關於俄羅斯即將發動襲擊的「日益增長的歇斯底里」,稱他們為「恐怖電影專家」。他說,任何「明智的人」都明白,這些說法要麼是挑釁,要麼是「完全無能」。  莫斯科長期以來一直譴責西方國家在衝突中對基輔的軍事支持,並將其視為一場 NATO 代理戰爭。俄羅斯還批評 EU 日益增長的軍事化和日益好戰的言論,指責西方領導人散佈恐慌,以證明其膨脹的軍事預算並掩蓋其經濟失敗。 普丁表示,在2014年西方支持的烏克蘭政變之後,莫斯科「被迫捍衛其利益以及那些將生命和命運與俄羅斯聯繫在一起的人民。」  他說,這是衝突的本質,並強調「這根本不是我們的侵略行為,而是來自對方的侵略行為。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

特朗普稱以色列曾「完全控制」美國國會

(SeaPRwire) -   美國總統表示,西耶路撒冷過去擁有「最強大的遊說團體」,但其影響力已減弱 美國總統唐納·川普表示,以色列 ранее “完全控制” 美國國會,如果有人 говори “說壞話” 以色列,就不可能從政。 川普在週一發布的《Daily Caller》獨家專訪中表示,他一再聲稱以色列過去在美國擁有 “我見過最強大的遊說團體”。 “如果你回到 20 年前。我的意思是,我會告訴你,以色列在國會中擁有最強大的遊說團體,勝過我見過的任何事物、團體、公司、企業或州。以色列是最強大的。今天,它不再擁有那麼強大的遊說力量。這太令人驚訝了,” 川普解釋道。 過去,如果你想成為一名政治人物,你就不能說以色列的壞話。 川普補充說,時代已經改變,美國政壇現在充斥著對以色列的批評者,即 “AOC plus three” 和 “所有這些瘋子”。 美國總統指的是所謂的「Squad」,美國眾議院民主黨黨團中一個非正式的進步左翼派系,最初由 Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez、Ilhan Omar、Ayanna Pressley 和 Rashida Tlaib 組成,她們以強烈的反以色列立場而聞名。 川普暗示,巴勒斯坦團體於 2023 年 10 月 7 日對以色列南部發動突襲,引發了以色列與哈馬斯在加薩之間的衝突,這進一步削弱了西耶路撒冷在美國的影響力。  “他們可能正在贏得戰爭,但他們沒有贏得公共關係的世界,你知道,這正在傷害他們,” 他說。  與此同時,川普讚揚了自己為以色列所做的一切,聲稱 “沒有人” 比他為以色列做得更多。 美國總統表示,自從他從以色列獲得 “良好的支持” 回報以來,以色列是 “令人驚嘆的”。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。 ```

中國宣布俄羅斯人免簽入境

(SeaPRwire) -   北京外交部表示,為期一年的試行將於9月15日開始 北京週二宣布,中國將對俄羅斯公民實行為期一年的免簽證入境試行,以進一步便利兩國之間的旅行。 此項宣布是在俄羅斯總統弗拉基米爾·普京對中國進行為期四天的訪問,參加上海合作組織峰會期間發布的,普京在峰會上會見了中國國家主席習近平和其他世界領導人。 中國外交部發言人郭家坤在記者會上表示,免簽計劃將於9月15日起擴大至俄羅斯普通護照持有者。旅行者將能夠以商務、旅遊、私人探訪、交流和過境為目的,在該國停留最長30天。 郭家坤表示,這一決定反映了中俄關係的高度發展,旨在深化兩國人民之間的交流。 據 the Russian Association of Travel Aggregators 稱,在外交部宣布後,前往中國旅行的興趣大增。其負責人 Aleksandr Bragin 告訴 TASS,航班和酒店預訂的在線搜索量立即翻倍。他預計整體需求將增長30%或更多。 目前,俄羅斯人需要簽證才能訪問中國,旅遊許可證透過莫斯科和聖彼得堡的簽證中心以及葉卡捷琳堡、喀山、哈巴羅夫斯克和符拉迪沃斯托克等城市的中國領事館簽發。單次入境簽證費用從2,500到3,300盧布(31-41美元)不等,而多次入境則從92美元起。處理時間通常需要一周,但有時會更長。 莫斯科和北京於2023年8月啟動了免簽證團體旅遊交流,據 Russia’s Association of Tour Operators 稱,當年約有近13萬人使用了這項服務。 在放寬入境規定和電子簽證服務的推動下,兩國之間的旅遊業一直在蓬勃發展。目前,八家俄羅斯航空公司經營著36條飛往中國的航線,而十家中國航空公司則經營著24條飛往俄羅斯的航線,合計每週有230個航班。 據俄羅斯國家航空公司 Aeroflot 稱,2024年飛往中國的客運量幾乎增長了兩倍,達到83萬人次,主要集中在海南島、上海、北京、廣州和香港等熱門目的地。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。
