香港, 2024年9月3日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) — 喆丽控股（02209.HK）乃为全球市场搜罗来自亚洲的优质美容及生活时尚产品的全球领先电商平台。集团上周五公布截至6月止六个月中期业绩，收益1.63亿美元，按年增加80.2%；纯利1,111万美元，增长6.1倍，每股盈利2.8美仙。受到好消息刺激，当日股价大升一成，前景值得看好。喆丽控股旗下主要有三个平台，分别是企业对消费者（B2C）的YesStyle平台和企业对企业（B2B）的AsianBeautyWholesale平台，两个平台主要售卖时装及美容产品。YesAsia平台及线下B2B销售渠道，主要售卖娱乐产品。期内，两大主要业务：B2C（YesStyle）同B2B（AsianBeautyWholesale）两者各占集团收益76.6%同22.6%，占总收益共99.2%，各自半年的收益已接近去年全年的整体贡献，可见增长强劲。YesStyle 收益上升 75.1%至 1.25亿美元，并跻身多个主要海外市场（包括美国、英国、加拿大、澳洲、法国、德国、意大利及西班牙）亚洲美容产品网站访问量之首。AsianBeautyWholesale 持续快速增长，收益上涨 112.1%至 3,700 万美元，其客户数量、订单数量及平均订单金额分别增长约8.4%、50.1%及41.3%。两大电子商务业务的迅速增长，有赖其不断扩展的亚洲美容产品品牌组合。喆丽目前是466个韩国美容品牌全球B2C及B2B渠道的授权经销商，期内更加引进了Amorepacific Corporation旗下的Mamonde及B.READY、CJ Olive Young Corporation旗下的CARE PLUS 及 LG Household & Health Care旗下的Belief及CNP Laboratory等数个知名品牌。同时，集团亦获授Too Cool for School于美国B2C及B2B渠道的独家经销权。须知能获众多品牌青睐并同时授予两大渠道经销权实属不易，足证喆丽于亚洲美容产品领域的竞争力及优秀往绩。社交媒体及数字技术领先于电子商务领域，潜在客户通常会同时浏览多个购物网站，并在很大程度上依赖线上评论来作出购买决定，因此数字技术的有效应用为不可或缺。喆丽是市场中最早大力投资社交媒体营销和人工智能客户关系管理系统的企业之一，早着先机，亦系带领集团上半年业绩大幅增长的其中一个原因。另外，自集团推出YesStyle网红计划以来，成功扩展社交平台曝光率，于社交媒体平台上合共追踪人数超过1百万。截至六月底，YesStyle网红计划参加者总数增至约365,000名，较去年底的333,000名上升近一成。同期，YesStyle之TikTok网红人数达到约87,000名，较去年底增长率为20.8%。而网红转介所产生收益增逾一倍至约3393.4万美元，占YesStyle平台收益的约27.2%，按年上升5.1百分点。集团将继续与网红合作，在Instagram、TikTok及YouTube等多个平台上创造有趣的视频及帖文，持续推动销售增长。股价走势上，7月30日高见5.51元遇阻回落，惟之后企稳50天平均线，回吐至8月5日最低3.48元后反复回升，过去两日受到业绩公布利好消息刺激而大升最多超过两成。14日RSI指标重回50以上水平，后市有机会继续反复向上，投资者不妨留意。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

普京邀请蒙古总统出席金砖国家峰会
(SeaPRwire) - 俄罗斯领导人表示，莫斯科和乌兰巴托之间的关系正在各个领域发展。 俄罗斯总统弗拉基米尔·普京邀请蒙古国总统呼日勒苏赫参加下个月在俄罗斯城市喀山举行的金砖国家峰会。这一邀请是在两位领导人在蒙古国首都举行会晤时提出的。 普京周一晚些时候抵达蒙古，这是他五年来首次访问该国。周二早上，呼日勒苏赫在乌兰巴托市中心的主广场迎接俄罗斯领导人。仪式包括仪仗队和身着中世纪蒙古骑兵服装的骑兵部队。两国国歌演奏，普京还接受了一位小女孩送的一束红玫瑰。 “我想邀请您到俄罗斯，到喀山，那里将举办今年的金砖国家峰会。这是该组织扩大后举办的首个此类活动。我希望您能以金砖+的形式参加。我们期待着您的到来，” 普京在他们于国家宫殿开始会谈时告诉呼日勒苏赫。 今年的金砖国家峰会将于 10 月 22 日至 24 日在喀山举行。俄罗斯是现任金砖国家轮值主席国，因此将主办此次活动。伊朗、埃及、埃塞俄比亚和阿联酋于 2024 年初正式成为金砖国家成员，加入了巴西、俄罗斯、印度、中国和南非。 普京强调，俄罗斯和蒙古之间的关系“正在各个领域发展。” “除了经济和政治领域——我们在这些领域积极合作——我还想指出人文领域的有效工作，尤其是在教育领域，” 他说。 新冠肺炎疫情使两国之间的交流变得复杂，但“我们最终还是能够实现贸易关系和贸易额增长的轨迹，” 俄罗斯领导人补充道。 详情待续 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。
滞留太空的美国宇航员报告在空间站听到“奇怪的声音”（音频）
(SeaPRwire) - 一位 NASA 宇航员向该机构报告称，从停靠在国际空间站的波音星际客机 (Starliner) 上听到了类似声纳的回声 波音的星际客机 (Starliner) 宇宙飞船开始发出异常的脉冲噪音，NASA 宇航员巴奇·威尔莫尔 (Butch Wilmore) 周六告诉任务控制中心。威尔莫尔和地面上的机构人员都无法立即解释这种声音。 威尔莫尔和他的搭档苏尼·威廉姆斯 (Suni Williams) 于 6 月乘坐星际客机 (Starliner) 前往国际空间站 (ISS)，这是该宇宙飞船首次载人飞行。然而，推进器故障和氦气泄漏导致该航天器停靠在国际空间站 (ISS) 上，无法安全返回地球，威尔莫尔和威廉姆斯被困在国际空间站 (ISS) 上，直到明年 SpaceX 的龙飞船才能将他们带回。 据称，威尔莫尔在周六与德克萨斯州约翰逊航天中心的无线电传输中说，他听到了来自星际客机 (Starliner) 的异常噪音。 “关于星际客机 (Starliner)，我有一个问题，”威尔莫尔告诉任务控制中心。“扬声器里传来奇怪的声音……我不知道是什么发出的。” 威尔莫尔随后将麦克风举到扬声器前，直到任务控制中心听到重复的类似钟声的噪音。 “好的，巴奇，我们听到了。它有点像脉冲噪音，几乎就像声纳信号，”任务控制中心回答说。 “我再做一次，让你们挠挠头，看看能不能搞清楚是怎么回事，”威尔莫尔说，然后是无法解释的噪音再次出现。“好的，轮到你们了。如果你们搞清楚了，就打电话给我们，”他总结道。 任何拥有 VHF 接收机和高增益天线的人都可以收听来自国际空间站 (ISS) 的无线电传输。美国气象学家罗伯·戴尔 (Rob Dale) 收集了威尔莫尔和任务控制中心之间的对话录音，并于周六将其发布到一个太空旅行论坛上。 在 6 月升空之前，波音的星际客机 (Starliner) 项目经历了多年的延迟和 15 亿美元的预算超支。它的首次载人飞行最初计划于 2017 年进行，但由于反复的技术故障和认证问题，该日期被推迟到今年 5 月。星际客机 (Starliner) 机载推进系统中的氦气泄漏导致当月多次发射日期被取消，直到波音最终宣布“少量氦气泄漏”不是“飞行安全问题”，并且该航天器可以安全地进行太空飞行。 在飞往国际空间站 (ISS) 的途中，星际客机 (Starliner) 的机组人员报告了四次氦气泄漏和五个推进器出现问题，此后又发现了一次泄漏。虽然波音据称表示，出现故障的星际客机 (Starliner) 能够安全地将威尔莫尔和威廉姆斯带回家，但 NASA 上周宣布，它将空载返回地球，而这两位宇航员将在 2 月乘坐波音主要竞争对手埃隆·马斯克 (Elon Musk) 的 SpaceX 公司运营的太空舱回家。 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。

NEC Launches new system using Biometric Authentication Technology
TOKYO, Sept 3, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - NEC Corporation (TSE: 6701) will launch a new system using biometric authentication technology that is capable of quickly authenticating large numbers of people at one time, even while they are in motion. The system is expected to accelerate admission and reduce congestion for busy events and infrastructure. NEC will begin providing the system globally in September 2024, initially focusing on Japan, the United States, and Singapore.NEC’s new system using Biometric Authentication TechnologyIn recent years, the number of visitors to airports, train stations, tourist attractions and other amusement facilities in Japan has been rising sharply. At the same time, however, facility expansions and additions to alleviate congestion have not kept pace. At airports in particular, the number of passengers in Japan is projected to double (*) by 2041 compared to 2019, and there is a need to improve the efficiency of passenger services.Conventionally, when large numbers of people have converged on areas such as theme parks, offices, factories, etc., heavy amounts of congestion have occurred, together with long lines at flapper gates and security screening areas.This new system features NEC’s world-class face recognition technology and matching technology, which evaluates the characteristics of movement and clothing to quickly detect persons in designated areas. Furthermore, the system can continue to biometrically identify persons even as they pass through crowded areas.In addition, the system can authenticate large numbers of people while they are in motion, including as many as 100 persons per minute in real time. Since the system does not require gates, as is the case with conventional admission control systems, it reduces lines and congestion without expanding or adding to existing facilities, thereby improving convenience and efficiency.When a person whose face image has not been registered attempts to pass, the system can provide visual alerts on a display or illumination installed overhead or on the floor.Authentication Flow of the new system using Biometric Authentication TechnologyNEC introduced this system for employees at its headquarters in Tokyo in July 2024.System features1. Simultaneous authentication of multiple people in real timeThis system enables simultaneous authentication of a large number of people in real time and allows users to pass through without stopping, thereby improving authentication efficiency. In various usage scenarios, such as airports and amusement facilities, this system will contribute to easing congestion and improving operational efficiency.2. Easy installationThis system can be deployed with as little as a single camera (minimum configuration) and a small, palm-sized edge terminal incorporating hardware acceleration technology. This enables deployment in a variety of locations and cost-effective expansion.3. Flexible integration with a variety of applications to meet corporate needsThis system can be flexibly implemented to meet corporate needs, and can be used in a variety of use cases through integration with various applications. In the future, the system can be combined with AR glasses and other devices to enhance both security and hospitality.NEC provides end-to-end services for digital transformation (DX) through the "NEC BluStellar" value-delivery model. NEC BluStellar transforms business models to address social and business challenges by applying diverse industry insights and world-leading technological expertise to the entire DX process, from customer strategy consultation through implementation.About NEC's Face Recognition TechnologyNEC has ranked first in the world multiple times in the "1:N authentication" test sponsored by the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) in the United States. While constantly improving the performance of its core algorithms, NEC has promoted the implementation of face recognition and has developed face recognition business in more than 50 countries and regions around the world.The technology has been deployed in a total of 80 airports globally, and is being used in various applications, such as immigration, customs declarations, boarding procedures, and hospitality solutions.(*)Source: Tourism Economics/IATA Sustainability and Economics (IATA)ShareAbout the Gateless Biometric Authentication Systemwww.nec.com/en/global/solutions/biometrics/from/index.htmlAbout NEC CorporationNEC Corporation has established itself as a leader in the integration of IT and network technologies while promoting the brand statement of “Orchestrating a brighter world.” NEC enables businesses and communities to adapt to rapid changes taking place in both society and the market as it provides for the social values of safety, security, fairness and efficiency to promote a more sustainable world where everyone has the chance to reach their full potential.

消息来源：联想控股微空间支持瞪羚企业、独角兽企业成长 培育和发展新质生产力香港, 2024年9月3日 - (亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com) — 今年7月30日召开的中共中央政治局会议指出，要有力有效支持发展瞪羚企业、独角兽企业。这一重要部署为培育和发展新质生产力、推动经济高质量发展指明了方向，也引发社会各界对瞪羚企业、独角兽企业的高度关注。其中，瞪羚企业指的是创新能力强、专业领域新、发展潜力大的企业，主要涵盖了那些以科技创新或商业模式创新为支撑进入高成长期的中小企业。相比瞪羚企业，独角兽企业的发展则更加成熟、企业规模也更大，一般指成立时间不超过10年、估值超过10亿美元(少部分估值超过100亿美元)，且具备独有核心技术、独特竞争优势和市场潜力的未上市公司。业内人士认为，瞪羚企业更加侧重企业的成长性、创新能力和发展潜力等维度的评价，其产业领域大多符合战略性新兴产业发展的方向。而独角兽企业往往具有高估值、初创性、商业模式难以复制的特点，企业本身对所在行业往往产生重要影响。联控39家所投企业入选中国独角兽发展报告发展瞪羚企业及独角兽企业，长期耐心资本的持续支持是其健康成长的重要因素之一。一直以来，联想控股旗下君联资本、联想之星、弘毅投资以及联想集团旗下联想创投坚持「投早期」与「投硬科技」，并已助力多家所投企业发展成为独角兽企业。其中共投出39家独角兽企业，在我国共计369家独角兽企业中，占比超10%。这些独角兽企业分布于12个新兴领域，其中集成电路占7家，医药健康占6家，人工智能占5家，新能源智能汽车占4家，新能源占4家，供应链物流占4家，商业航天占2家，软件和信息服务占2家，文化传媒与娱乐占2家，智能制造、新材料与新消费各占1家。与此同时，联想控股也通过投资这些独角兽企业，助力了13个城市的经济建设。其中，在北京的被投独角兽企业高达17家，上海则拥有7家，深圳有3家，长沙有2家，广州有2家，杭州、常州、成都、重庆、合肥、武汉、南京、苏州各有1家。（以上数据来源:《中国独角兽企业发展报告(2024年)》；截至时间:2024年3月）联想控股所投独角兽企业（排名不分先后)集成电路独角兽企业：- GXMT长鑫存储：一体化存储器制造公司，专注于动态随机存取存储芯片(DRAM)的设计、研发、生产和销售。- ESWIN奕斯伟计算：集成电路领域产品和服务提供商，核心业务包括芯片与方案、硅材料、生态链开发等板块，布局半导体产业。- KUMLUNXIN昆仑芯:专注打造拥有强大通用性、易用性和高性能的通用人工智能芯片，在体系结构、芯片实现、软件系统和场景应用均有深厚积累。- Silicon Magic芯迈：从IC设计、制造、到销售为一体的半导体垂直整合型公司。提供智能手机、LCD/OLED平板显示高集成度模拟芯片；以及面向5G通信、服务器、汽车的高端功率器件解决方案。- SJSEMI盛合晶微：以集成电路前段芯片制造体系和标准，采用独立专业代工模式服务全球客户的中段硅片制造企业。以先进的12英吋凸块和再布线加工起步，致力于提供优质的中段硅片制造和测试服务，并进一步发展先进的三维系统集成芯片业务。- MOORE THREADS摩尔线程：以全功能 GPU 为核心，专注于研发设计全功能GPU芯片及相关产品，支持 AI计算加速、3D高速图形渲染、超高清视频编解码、物理仿真与科学计算等多种组合工作负载。- OnMicro昂瑞微：布局射频前端和无线通信领域、复合型芯片设计公司。拥有基于CMOS、GaAs、SiGe、SOI、GaN等多种工艺的芯片设计和大规模量产经验，核心产品线涵盖三大类，超四百款芯片。医药健康独角兽企业- TIDETRON态创：致力于合成生物技术创新，满足多行业绿色、优质的原料需求。为科技护肤、食品饮料、家居清洁、生物医药等领域提供研产一体化解决方案。- ABOGEN艾博生物：专注mRNA药物研发的创新型生物制药公司，产品管线涵盖包括新冠mRNA疫苗在内的传染病防治、肿瘤免疫、肿瘤疫苗、蛋白替换疗法等领域。- 金斯瑞 蓬勃生物：拥有一站式生物药研发生产平台，主要致力于为细胞和基因治疗(CGT)药物、抗体及重组蛋白药物等提供从靶点开发到商业化生产的端到端CDMO服务。- Caidya缔脉：立足中国、面向全球的CRO公司，具备中美欧三地申报、同步开发的能力。 - HuiHe Healthcare汇禾医疗: 专注于心血管植入类器械的研发生产，在心脏瓣膜介入、血管介入、电生理介入、药物递送介入及智能介入等领域具有自主研发相关产品。- EDGE MEDICAL精锋医疗：致力于设计、开发和制造手术机器人，专注微创手术机器人及器械，提供外科手术的创新解决方案。 人工智能独角兽企业- 智谱·AI：致力于打造新一代认知智能大模型，专注于做大模型的中国创新。构建了AIGC模型产品矩阵，包括Al提效助手智谱清言、高效率代码模型CodeGeeX、多模态理解模型CogVLM和文生图模型CogView等。- BAICHUAN AI百川智能：致力于通过语言Al的突破，构建中国最优秀的大模型底座。- Pony.ai小马智行：致力于提供安全、先进、可靠的全栈式自动驾驶技术。- Black Sesame Technologies黑芝麻智能：车规级智能汽车计算芯片及基于芯片的解决方案供应商。- BioMap百图生科：生物计算技术驱动的生命科学平台公司，致力于用高性能生物计算和多组学数据技术加速创新药物和早筛早诊等精准生命科学产品的研发。新能源智能汽车独角兽企业- Zongmu Technology纵目科技：专注于高级驾驶辅助系统(ADAS)解决方案的提供商。- Horizon Robotics地平线：乘用车高级辅助驾驶(ADAS)和高阶自动驾驶(AD)解决方案供应商。- Inceptio Technology赢彻科技：自动驾驶技术和运营公司，聚焦干线物流场景，自主研发全栈L2至L4级自动驾驶技术，和汽车产业紧密合作，为物流客户提供更安全、更高效的自动驾驶技术和新一代Taas货运网络。- CiDi希迪智驾：商用车自动驾驶企业，产品涵盖「聪明的车」和「智慧的路」，以自动驾驶重卡技术，打造无人纯电矿卡、无人驾驶园区物流车，落地无人运输场景；以「车、路、云」全系列车路协同产品，为车联网先导区、双智城市、高速公路提供多类型智能网联解决方案。新能源独角兽企业- MS ENERGY美克生能源：分布式绿色能源聚合服务商。聚焦以储能为支撑的新能源全场景，运用电化学算法、Al、物联网、区块链等前沿技术，打造更安全、更高效、更经济的数字能源聚合服务平台。- SVOLT蜂巢能源：专业锂离子电池系统提供商，专注于电芯、模组、电池包及大型储能、单元储能、中型储能、家储、便携等全序列产品的研发、生产和销售。- SFCC （Fuel Cell Engine）深圳国氢新能源：专注中国氢燃料电池技术研究、动力系统研发及产业化的国家高新技术企业。提供燃料电池动力系统解决方案，燃料电池产业生态闭环解决方案。- WeLion New Energy卫蓝新能源：中国科学院物理研究所固态电池产学研孵化企业，专注于混合固液电解质锂离子电池与全固态锂电池研发与生产的国家高新技术企业，应用覆盖新能源车船、规模储能、3C消费、其他行业等领域。供应链物流独角兽企业- FOR-U（SMART FREIGHT）福佑卡车：专注于整车运输的科技货运平台，以大数据和Al技术为核心构建智能物流系统。- 中国南方航空：南航集团整合货运资源，建立市场化经营机制，形成完整的航空物流产业链，打造具有航空特色的综合物流服务供应商的关键载体，打造多层次的航空物流产品体系，发展「航空速运、地面综合服务、供应链综合解决方案」三大业务板块。- 顺丰快运：顺丰集团旗下20kg+大件综合物流品牌。为B端生产与商业流通、C端生活场景，提供一站式的大件物流运输配送及入户延伸服务。- 蜀海供应链：集销售、研发、采购、生产，品保、仓储、运输、信息、金融为一体的餐饮供应链服务企业，为广大餐饮连锁企业及零售客户提供整体食材供应链解决方案服务。商业航天独角兽企业- Galaxy Space银河航天：卫星互联网解决方案提供商和卫星制造商，致力于通信载荷、校心单机、卫星平台的自主研发与低成本量产。- ONE SPACE零壹空间：坚持火箭技术垂直一体化业务布局，致力于打造信息化、智能化、实战化的「火箭+」产业服务平台，成功研制灵龙、望舒、玄鹊、玄珠、鸿鸣五大神兽系列火箭技术产品。软件和信息服务独角兽企业- XSKY星辰天合：专注于软件定义存储领域的专精特新「小巨人」企业，基于软件定义的统一技术架构和混合云模式的数据管理方案，为政企客户提供以数据价值为核心的产品和服务。- Tanma探马|先进的社交CRM：社交 CRM 提供商。可提供朋友圈运营、客户群发、智能话术等营销工具及员工服务质检、客户档案管理、销售过程管理、BI定制报表等管理产品。文化传媒与娱乐独角兽企业- FITURE沸彻魔镜：家庭科技健身品牌，专注于打造集「硬件＋内容＋服务＋AI」的智能健身，力求通过科技帮助大众建立健康的生活方式。- 界面新闻：由上海报业集团出品的财经类新媒体。智能制造独角兽企业- HAI ROBOTICS海柔创新：专注于箱式仓储机器人系统研发设计，致力于通过机器人技术和智能算法，提供高效、智能、柔性的仓储自动化解决方案。新材料独角兽企业- CNGR中伟：专业的锂电池新能源材料综合服务商。新消费独角兽企业- 作业帮：依托「科技＋教育」双引擎优势，在学习工具产品、智能硬件等领域开展深入布局，让人工智能技术于在线教育场景中真正落地。*关于《中国独角兽企业发展报告(2024年)》：报告由中关村独角兽企业发展联盟联合毕马威企业咨询(中国)有限公司、长城战略咨询、北京方迪经济发展研究院、清华大学中国科技政策研究中心于2024中关村论坛「全球独角兽企业大会」上共同发布。该报告显示，我国独角兽企业总估值约为1.4万亿美元，分布在16个领域，覆盖47个城市。 Copyright 2024 亚太商讯 via SeaPRwire.com.

欧盟转向俄罗斯能源 – Welt
(SeaPRwire) - 只有挪威在欧盟天然气供应商中排名更高，而两者都领先于美国，一个顶级智库估计。 俄罗斯已超过美国，再次成为欧盟第二大天然气供应商；德国《世界报》周日援引分析报道称，这一发展的象征意义“巨大”。 2022 年 2 月乌克兰冲突爆发后，布鲁塞尔宣布消除对俄罗斯能源的依赖是其首要任务之一。昂贵的美国液化天然气 (LNG) 填补了市场的大部分份额，加剧了整个欧盟的经济危机。 《世界报》援引布鲁塞尔智库 Bruegel 的数据称，2024 年第二季度，俄罗斯天然气约占欧洲进口天然气的 17%，略高于美国供应量。根据其数据，欧洲客户在该期间内接收了 122.7 亿立方米的美国 LNG，而俄罗斯向欧盟交付了 127.3 亿立方米。 俄罗斯供应包括 LNG 和管道天然气，管道天然气通过白俄罗斯和乌克兰以及土耳其溪海底天然气管道流向欧盟。基辅从其领土运输的燃料中获得过境费，并在当前合同于 2024 年底到期后威胁要暂停运营。然而，它表示愿意开放给第三国，如阿塞拜疆，增加其对苏联建造的基础设施的使用。 俄罗斯外交部经济合作司司长德米特里·比里切夫斯基将天然气进口动态描述为欧盟制裁政策失败的证明。 “虽然指标确实远低于 2022 年之前的水平，但事实说明了一切，”他在周一告诉俄罗斯卫星通讯社。“仅希腊就将 2023 年的俄罗斯天然气采购量增加了四倍。” 美国在乌克兰冲突爆发之前就试图取代俄罗斯成为欧洲的能源供应商。唐纳德·特朗普总统的政府臭名昭著地将美国 LNG 称为“自由的分子”，当时它向欧盟国家施压，要求它们选择美国 LNG 而不是俄罗斯天然气。挪威历来是该市场最大的天然气供应商。 莫斯科现在认为欧盟是一个不可靠的客户，它已经证明愿意让美国的政治目标凌驾于欧洲的经济需求之上。 “在实际上宣布对我们进行经济战争的情况下，我们将外贸转向全球南方和东方国家仍然是我们的优先事项，”比里切夫斯基说。 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。
乌克兰 F-16 战机坠毁“可能”并非友军误伤 – NYT
(SeaPRwire) - 两名美国高级军事官员和其他消息人士现在坚持认为“现在下结论还为时过早”。 乌克兰上周损失了第一架西方提供的F-16战斗机，但尚未公布事故的官方原因，引发了猜测，称这架美国制造的飞机可能是被美国制造的爱国者防空系统友军火力击落的。 这架飞机于上周一坠毁，乌克兰最优秀的飞行员之一阿列克谢·“月鱼”·梅斯遇难。基辅直到周四才承认损失，仅表示正在对此事件进行调查。乌克兰议员玛丽安娜·贝祖格拉娅声称，梅斯是被乌克兰接受的西方捐赠的爱国者导弹击落的。事件发生后，乌克兰总统弗拉基米尔·泽连斯基未作解释地解除了其空军司令的职务。 据称，一位不愿透露姓名的西方官员向《纽约时报》证实，初步调查显示，这架飞机可能是被爱国者防空系统友军火力击落的。 然而，在周六的逆转中，“两名美国高级军事官员”告诉该报，F-16坠毁事件“很可能不是友军火力造成的”。消息人士补充说，美国和乌克兰调查人员正在探索其他可能性，例如机械故障或飞行员失误。 当周四被问及“这架F-16有没有可能被乌克兰的爱国者导弹击落的可能性”时，五角大楼副新闻秘书萨布丽娜·辛格回答说，“美国尚未被要求参与对此事件的任何调查。” 《纽约时报》还援引了不愿透露姓名的乌克兰军事分析人士的话，他们声称，西方防空系统和F-16已在如此“复杂条件”下一起测试，但指出现在“下结论还为时过早”。 上周一，俄罗斯对乌克兰的国防工业综合体至关重要的能源设施以及储存西方提供弹药的几个机场进行了“大规模高精度攻击”，使用远程空基和海基武器和无人机。 基辅的官方声明表明，梅斯在一次防空任务中丧生，他在该任务中击落了三枚俄罗斯巡航导弹和一架攻击无人机。乌克兰空军表示，当时除了爱国者系统外，基辅还部署了其他多种防空系统，包括配备“毒刺”导弹和英国“星光”导弹的机动小组。 本月早些时候，少量美国制造的飞机被交付给乌克兰。美国尚未承诺向乌克兰提供任何自己的F-16，但已允许北约其他成员国提供。一个由欧洲国家组成的“联盟”承诺向基辅提供80多架飞机，但迄今为止只交付了不到12架。 华盛顿还希望其在欧洲的北约盟友承担为美国设计的飞机提供服务的责任，因为据《华尔街日报》报道，美国总统乔·拜登政府拒绝了五角大楼派遣美国承包商前往乌克兰的计划，担心他们可能成为俄罗斯军队的目标。 一家俄罗斯公司提供了一份1500万卢布（17万美元）的奖金，奖励击落第一架F-16的人。到目前为止，还没有人站出来领取这笔奖金。 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。

Terrific Texas fight back from TOYOTA GAZOO Racing
Toyota City, Japan, Sept 2, 2024 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - TOYOTA GAZOO Racing suffered an agonising near-miss in the Lone Star Le Mans when a harsh penalty denied it victory in round six of the 2024 FIA World Endurance Championship (WEC) at the Circuit of the Americas in Austin, Texas.Terrific Texas fight back from TOYOTA GAZOO RacingThe team bounced back from a difficult qualifying by maximising the performance of its GR010 HYBRIDs and implementing a smart tyre strategy – combined with flat-out driving, fast pit stops and a united team effort – to fight for victory.Mike Conway, Kamui Kobayashi and Nyck de Vries fought through the field with a perfect performance and looked set to win. However, a late penalty for a yellow flag incident changed race result and left the #7 GR010 HYBRID crew second.World Champions Sébastien Buemi, Brendon Hartley and Ryo Hirakawa had been set for a top-six finish in the #8 GR010 HYBRID after a similarly strong performance but suffered an incident in the fifth hour and they finished 15th.Despite the frustration, TOYOTA GAZOO Racing nevertheless moves into the lead of the manufacturers’ World Championship heading into its home race, the 6 Hours of Fuji, on 15 September, with an 11-point advantage over Porsche.The team was able to fight at the front thanks to an attacking strategy which took the fight to competitors who had shown quicker pace earlier in the week.Mike started ninth in the #7 and survived contact on the opening lap to move up the field, including a spectacular overtake on lap eight when he passed two cars in one manoeuvre to take sixth place. Meanwhile, Brendon started from 12th in the #8 and ran there throughout the opening stint.Mike’s pace moved him into the podium fight and he was sixth, just a few seconds away from third, heading into the first pit stops at the one-hour mark. Nyck and Sébastien resumed the challenge and continued to push hard to improve their positions.The hot conditions took their toll on some Hypercar rivals and, when Mike returned to the wheel early in the third hour, the #7 was in second thanks to a storming stint from Nyck, with Ryo now eighth. As half distance approached, Mike increased the pace, setting a new fastest lap as he closed on the leading #83 Ferrari.At half distance, further driver changes saw Nyck and Brendon resume, in second and seventh respectively. Nyck closed to the rear of the leader midway through the fourth hour while Brendon was pushing the #6 Porsche, and he made a brave move to take sixth.An aggressive strategy call brought the #7 into the pits slightly early at the end of the fourth hour, giving Kamui clear air and a chance to take the lead. That paid off when the #83 emerged from its own pit stop a lap later, two seconds behind Kamui.After another driver change, Sébastien was defending sixth place on his out lap when he made contact with the #6 Porsche, causing a puncture and earning a 30-second stop-go penalty. The car’s chances were further hampered by another penalty for not respecting blue flags and Sébastien resumed in 15th.After a final pit stop, Kamui was comfortably clear at the front until, with 40 minutes remaining, a race-deciding drive-through penalty – when stewards judged he did not respond appropriately to a yellow flag –dropped him to second, nine seconds behind the #83 Ferrari.Kamui pushed hard to recover the time lost, not helped by a full course yellow, but fell just short and he crossed the line in second, just 1.780secs behind the winning #83 Ferrari. Meanwhile, Ryo brought the #8 home in 15th in front of more than 65,000 fans.Kamui Kobayashi (Team Principal and driver, car #7):“The team did a perfect job and made a big effort. We did everything that we could in terms of driving, strategy and pit stops which put us in a position to win. But the penalty was unfortunate and a big surprise for me to be honest. To get a drive-through penalty for that is a bit of a surprise, but that’s how it is. The race was quite fun, and I enjoyed racing back here in Austin; it’s a great track. Now I am looking forward to continuing the very close battle this season at our home race.”Mike Conway (Driver, car #7):“Coming into the race we didn’t feel like we had a chance of winning but as the race evolved we had strong pace; every stint we seemed to be gaining with good tyre wear and consistency. We ended up in a fight and we thought we were going to win, but unfortunately the penalty killed our chance, although Kamui fought all the way to the end. It was a great job by everyone, from the engineers, the pit crew and my team-mates. The result is better than expected and we scored good points for the championship so we will keep pushing and go to Fuji hoping for a positive result.”Nyck de Vries (Driver, car #7):“I would like to thank the team for their amazing job throughout the weekend, especially in the race. They nailed all the calls, all the pit stops and executed a faultless race. I think we all did a great job, but unfortunately the drive-through took away our win. We still need to investigate it because it’s not fully clear yet. Nevertheless, it is a strong result for the team and the World Championship, it’s just bitter-sweet to miss out on the win when it was in the pocket.”Sébastien Buemi (Driver, car #8):“I would like to apologise to the team for the contact I had with the Porsche. It was my fault and I’m sorry for that because obviously that effectively ended our race. Up until then the team had done a fantastic job to help us recover from starting down in 12th, so it feels really difficult to let the team down. I hope we can have a better race in Fuji. Congratulations to car #7 for a great performance, it’s just a pity they got this penalty at the end.”Brendon Hartley (Driver, car #8):“It was a tough day. We started towards the back, but we were coming through the field until Séb made a little mistake, which can happen. The team put in a really impressive performance in a hard situation and I’m really proud of everyone for their work. Car #7 drove an amazing race; the strategy, pit stops, everything was top notch today. They would have won without the penalty. Unfortunately, it didn’t go our way on car #8 but we will fight back at our home race in Fuji.”Ryo Hirakawa (Driver, car #8):“That was a difficult race and it’s a pity because we had shown strong pace to come back through the field and fight in the top six, but the accident was unfortunate. It was the same frustration for car #7; they drove really well and could have won the race. That’s part of racing and we have to move on. The next one is our home race so we need to refocus for Fuji when hopefully we can achieve a one-two. It would be nice to do that in front of our home fans.”Lone Star Le Mans – Result1st #83 AF Corse (Kubica/Shwartzman/Ye) 183 laps2nd #7 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing +1.780secs3rd #50 Ferrari AF Corse (Fuoco/Molina/Nielsen) +26.282secs4th #2 Cadillac Racing (Bamber/Lynn) +46.924secs5th #35 Alpine Endurance Team (Chatin/Habsburg/Milesi) +1min 10.513secs6th #6 Porsche Penske (Estre/Lotterer/Vanthoor) +1min 36.873secs15th #8 TOYOTA GAZOO Racing +2 laps Copyright 2024 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
DR.NOAH BIOTECH’s AI-driven ALS Medicine Receives U.S. FDA Approval for Phase 1 Clinical Trial IND
Seoul, Korea – September 02, 2024 – (SeaPRwire) – DR.NOAH BIOTECH (hereafter DR.NOAH), an AI-driven innovative drug development company, announced on August 23 that it had received approval from the U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) for the Investigational New Drug (IND) application for Phase 1 clinical trial of a new drug combination (NDC-011) for Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis (ALS). This Phase 1 clinical trial is planned to be conducted at a specialized clinical trial institution in the U.S., involving 24 healthy adult participants. The study is designed to compare and evaluate the bioavailability, safety, and tolerability of single doses of the individual drugs composing NDC-011, which is a two-drug combination, and NDC-011 itself. The Phase 1 trial is scheduled to begin in the first half of 2025, while Phase 2 is expected to start in 2026. NDC-011 is a combination drug discovered through DR.NOAH’s proprietary AI drug development platform, “ARK.” It is designed to have multiple mechanisms of action in ALS patients, including effects of anti-inflammation, neuroprotection, neuronal differentiation promotion, and muscle cell protection. DR.NOAH used ARK to analyze ALS patient data and over 1.6 million drug combinations to predict candidate drugs. NDC-011 was selected as the final candidate after showing the most significant results in preclinical trials. The efficacy of NDC-011 was confirmed by ALS preclinical study for delayed motor function deterioration and prolonged survival. These study results were published in the October 2023 issue of “Neurotherapeutics,” an international journal of the American Society for Experimental Neurotherapeutics. In September 2023, it received an orphan drug designation (ODD) from the FDA. NDC-011 was aimed at global market expansion from the early stages of development. For this purpose, formulation/preparation development, production, and quality control of the fixed-dose combination (FDC) in tablet form were carried out at the cGMP facility of Patheon, a top-class global contract development and manufacturing organization (CDMO), in the U.S. “Although there are currently approved medicines for ALS, their therapeutic effects fall short of expectations, making the development of new treatments an urgent necessity,” a DR.NOAH’s representative stated. “NDC-011 is expected to alleviate the progression and symptoms of ALS and prolong patient survival.” The representative also added, “Our company is not just an AI technology service provider, but a drug development company capable of handling on our own the entire new drug development process from discovery to clinical development.” DR.NOAH BIOTECH is an AI-driven, innovative drug development company that develops medicines for neurological and muscular diseases. Starting with the launch of the AI drug development platform “ARK” in 2017, the company began its own drug development. The ARK platform consists of NOTE databases containing patient genomic data, drug genomic data, drug 3D structural data, medical big data, and neural/muscle cell imaging data, as well as various AI systems (CombiNet, SF-Rx, VLab, NeuroRG) that analyze these data. ARK’s core technology is the accurate prediction of multiple pathological networks critical to diseases and the discovery of optimal drug combinations to modulate them. DR.NOAH is currently developing eight different combination drug pipelines. Among them, NDC-002 for stroke recovery successfully completed Phase 1 clinical trials in Korea in 2023. This is significant since it is the first time an AI company in Korea has conducted Phase 1 clinical trials for an AI-developed drug in Korea. DR.NOAH is particularly focused on developing medicines for rare diseases. In addition to NDC-011 for ALS treatment, which has just received Phase 1 clinical trial approval, NDC-026 is also under development for Duchenne muscular dystrophy (DMD) treatment. NDC-026 received a rare pediatric disease designation (RPDD) and an orphan drug designation (ODD) from the FDA in April. The goal is to submit an IND application in 2025. The initiation of clinical trials for NDC-011 is expected to be the first case of clinical trials for an AI-discovered combination drug for ALS treatment. “Starting with this NDC-011 clinical trial, we will continue to develop medicines for rare diseases,” Dr.Ji-hyun Lee, CEO of DR.NOAH, stated. “We will do our best to ensure that our fast and efficient AI-driven combination drug development strategy will bring hope to rare disease patients worldwide.” Media contact Brand: DR.NOAH BIOTECH Inc.

右翼政党在德国州议会选举中取得历史性胜利
(SeaPRwire) - 德国选择党（AfD）在图林根州赢得近33%的选票，初步结果显示。 德国选择党（AfD）似乎赢得了自2013年该右翼政党成立以来的第一个州级选举。 根据官方初步结果，AfD在周日举行的德国东部图林根州立法选举中获得了32.8%的选票。 保守的基督教民主联盟（CDU）预计将获得第二名，获得23.6%的选票。 根据出口民调，这两个政党在邻近的萨克森州也势均力敌，CDU和AfD分别获得了32%和31.5%的选票。 德国执政的“交通灯”联盟——总理奥拉夫·舒尔茨的社会民主党（SPD）、自由民主党（FDP）和绿党——都没有能够进入这两个州的前三名。 图林根州和萨克森州的第三名是萨赫拉·瓦根克内希特（BSW）新成立的左翼政党。尽管站在政治光谱的相反两端，BSW和AfD都呼吁加强移民控制，并结束柏林对乌克兰与俄罗斯冲突的支持。 AfD的联合领导人艾丽丝·魏德尔表示，该党在图林根州和萨克森州的选举中取得了“历史性的成功”，这两个州分别有约170万和330万合格选民。在接受德国广播公司ARD采访时，她将预计的结果描述为舒尔茨联盟的“挽歌”，并敦促在德国举行大选。 该右翼政党的另一位联合领导人蒂诺·克鲁帕拉说，这两个州的人民已经明确表示，“应该改变政治。”克鲁帕拉强调，AfD“随时准备并愿意与所有政党对话。” 然而，AfD不太可能能够在任何一个州组建地区政府，因为他们的政治对手拒绝与他们合作。 “一个公开的右翼极端主义政党首次成为州议会中最强大的力量，这引起了许多人的极度担忧和恐惧，”绿党的联合领导人奥米德·努里普尔坚持说。 基民盟的全国总书记卡斯滕·林内曼说，“这两个州的选民都知道我们不会与AfD结成联盟，情况将保持不变。”魏德尔将基督教民主党的这种立场描述为“纯粹的无知。” 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。
马斯克：美国正“快速驶向”破产
(SeaPRwire) - 特斯拉和 SpaceX 首席执行官埃隆·马斯克认为，政府过度支出是美国通货膨胀的罪魁祸首。 特斯拉和 SpaceX 首席执行官埃隆·马斯克警告称，由于华盛顿政府的支出过高，美国正迅速走向破产。 周四，马斯克在其 X（前身为推特）平台上分享了另一位用户的帖子，该用户引用了美国政府预算中对 2025 财年的预测，该预测称，到 2035 年，预算赤字可能从目前的 18 亿美元增加到近 163 亿美元。 “以目前的政府支出速度，美国正在快速走向破产，” 马斯克写道。 这位科技大亨还暗示，“政府过度支出是导致该国通货膨胀的原因。” 据劳工部两周前发布的一份报告，美国 7 月份的年度通货膨胀率降至 3% 以下，为 2021 年以来的首次。商品和服务的价格上涨了 2.9%，而剔除食品和能源行业的核心通货膨胀率在过去 12 个月中上涨了 3.2%。 7 月下旬，美国财政部宣布，该国的国家债务首次超过 35 万亿美元，自 1 月以来增加了 1 万亿美元。 国会预算办公室 (CBO) 预测，到 2034 年，债务将超过 50 万亿美元，相当于美国 GDP 的 122% 以上。CBO 还表示，预计该国从 2029 年到 2034 年的平均年度 GDP 增长率约为 1.8%。 6 月，负责任联邦预算委员会 (CRFB) 智库声称，在现任美国总统乔·拜登的领导下，国家债务增长了 43 亿美元，而唐纳德·特朗普任期内为 84 亿美元。 8 月，特朗普在 X 上接受了马斯克的长时间采访。在那之后不久，这位共和党总统候选人表示，如果他在 11 月的选举中获胜，他会考虑让这位他形容为“天才”的科技大亨担任其政府的职务。马斯克在帖子中回复了这一提议，强调他“愿意服务。” 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。
