Brazilian court dismisses gambling loss lawsuit

(AsiaGameHub) -   The court ruled that the bets were placed voluntarily and dismissed the platform’s liability. Brazil.- The 3rd Special Civil Court of Anápolis, in Goiás, rejected a lawsuit brought against Novibet, in which a player sought the cancellation of sports bets made on the platform. The gambler had also requested the return of approximately R$ 50,000 (€8,500) in betting losses plus R$ 10,000 (€ 1,700) as compensation for moral damages. In the lawsuit, the plaintiff claimed he began using the platform in 2022, prior to the regulation of online gambling in Brazil last year, and that a recreational habit had developed into a case of gambling addiction, officially diagnosed as Gambling Disorder. According to the court records, the gambler asserted that the operator had failed to implement effective blocking and warning measures as required by responsible gambling policies. However, Novibet’s defense maintained that all bets were placed voluntarily by a legally competent adult and emphasized that the company offers control tools such as deposit limits, alerts, and self-exclusion options. In her judgment, Judge Luciana de Araújo Camapum Ribeiro first denied a motion questioning the jurisdiction of the Special Court and determined that technical expertise was unnecessary to assess the case. Upon reviewing the substance of the claims, the magistrate observed that betting contracts are inherently aleatory and that the risk of loss is an integral part of the activity. The ruling further clarified that a diagnosis of gambling addiction, by itself, does not invalidate legal transactions conducted by a person with full legal capacity. According to the decision, there was no evidence of a service failure by the platform, fraudulent conduct, or unjustified retention of funds. The judge also stated that holding the operator accountable for the user’s financial losses could create legal uncertainty and promote risky behavior among other players. Consequently, the court dismissed any civil liability attributed to the platform. The ruling also noted that Ordinance SPA/MF No. 1,231/2024 sets out guidelines for monitoring and promoting responsible gaming but does not impose on operators the duty to safeguard clients’ financial lives. During her reasoning, the judge referenced similar rulings from the Court of Justice of São Paulo in cases involving requests for reimbursement of losses incurred on online betting platforms, where the prevailing view was that such transactions were made voluntarily. The decision also nullified preliminary injunctions previously issued in the case. This article is provided by a third-party.

Mexico Fuels Codere Online’s Strong Q1 Performance Ahead of World Cup 2026

(AsiaGameHub) -   The online gambling operator returned to profit amid double-digit growth in active customers and revenue in Mexico. Spain.- Codere Online has reported solid growth in the first quarter of 2026, with Mexico standing out as a key driver. The Nasdaq-listed operator recorded revenue of €60.3m (£54.7m), a 16 per cent increase from Q1 2025. Adjusted EBITDA rose from €1.8m to €6m, while net income swung from a €700,000 loss to a €7m profit. Marcus Arildsson, Codere Online’s CFO, described the quarter as “a clear step forward in profitability,” highlighting the EBITDA growth and return to net profit. The strong start contrasts with full-year 2025, which closed with a €1.8m net loss. Casino operations accounted for 63 per cent of group revenue, with sportsbook contributing 37 per cent. Growth was supported by a 14 per cent increase in active customers, now totalling 183 million. Mexico delivered standout results, boding well for the operator as the country prepares to host the FIFA World Cup with the US and Canada starting next month. Mexican net gaming revenue (NGR) climbed 13 per cent to €34.6m on the back of a 20 per cent increase in the number of active customers. The upcoming World Cup is expected to further boost engagement, though the Mexican market continues to face challenges amid the gambling “sin tax” introduced last year. In Spain, NGR rose 16 per cent year-on-year to €25.5m. Across Codere’s other core territories of Argentina, Colombia and Panama, combined revenue dipped by 2 per cent to €4.4m. Codere Online projects full-year revenue of €235–245m and EBITDA of €15–20m, which would compare to €224.1m and €13.8m respectively in 2025. CEO Aviv Sher commented: “We delivered a very strong start to 2026, achieving record quarterly net gaming revenue of €64.4m, up 13 per cent year-on-year. In Spain, performance accelerated meaningfully, with net gaming revenue growing 16 per cent, reflecting a clear continuation and acceleration of the positive trends we began to see in the second half of 2025, particularly in the fourth quarter. Codere Online was spun off from Grupo Codere in 2021. Grupo Codere retains a majority stake but is reportedly exploring a potential sale, with some reports citing a potential $2bn valuation.

LCKY Group to Acquire RoyalCasino

(AsiaGameHub) -   Denmark-facing RoyalCasino will boost the proportion of LCKY Group’s revenue from regulated markets. Denmark.- Malta-based LCKY Group has reached an agreement to acquire RoyalCasino, a Danish online casino operator operating exclusively within the country’s regulated iGaming market. The brand will become part of LCKY’s existing portfolio, which includes LuckyCasino, HappyCasino, FlaxCasino, Vera&John, and OneCasino. The acquisition strengthens the presence of LCKY Group, formerly known as Glitnor Group, in Denmark while increasing the share of its revenue generated from regulated markets. The deal is expected to provide immediate financial benefits, with pro-forma estimates indicating a revenue increase of 18 to 20 per cent and an EBITDA improvement of 29–31 per cent. Richard Brown, CEO of LCKY Group, described the move as “highly strategic and financially compelling”. “RoyalCasino brings both strong market presence and high-quality earnings in Denmark, a market that closely aligns with our focus on regulated, sustainable growth,” he added. Brown continued: “The transaction enhances our scale, strengthens our competitive position, and offers clear opportunities to drive synergies and long-term value creation. We look forward to collaborating closely with the RoyalCasino team to realise these opportunities.” Per Petersen, CEO of RoyalCasino, stated: “Our industry is marked by high levels of innovation and competition, and we believe the combination of RoyalCasino’s local expertise and LCKY’s international scale and iGaming experience represents an excellent foundation for mutual success. We are excited to introduce LCKY to our Danish customer base.” The deal remains subject to regulatory approval, with completion anticipated in the second half of 2026. RoyalCasino was advised by Partis. Financial details, including the purchase price and funding arrangements, have not been disclosed. The announcement precedes new gambling advertising restrictions in Denmark, which include a complete ban on ads during live sports broadcasts and tighter limits on outdoor promotions and free-to-play bonuses.

Dutch gambling regulator submits thousands of reports to Meta over illegal gambling ads

(AsiaGameHub) -   The KSA is also targeting unlicensed operators that misuse the names and logos of prominent Dutch athletes and brands. The Netherlands.- The Dutch gambling authority, the Kansspelautoriteit (KSA), reports it submitted more than 4,600 reports to Meta in April concerning ads for unlicensed gambling. As part of its task force on illegal gambling, the regulator has increased how often it reports to the parent company of Facebook and Instagram about advertisements from operators lacking a KSA licence. It states that a recent meeting of the coalition also involved exchanging up-to-date knowledge, trends, and insights. The working group also talked about how firms can safeguard their trademarks and conducted a brainstorming session on what further actions are required to address illegal providers on social media platforms. “Illegal gambling operators run numerous advertisements on social media,” the KSA stated. “They use the names and logos of famous Dutch athletes and major brands to appear more trustworthy. Consumers often find it hard to tell if a gambling operator is licensed. To safeguard consumers, the KSA is therefore intensifying its efforts to fight online advertising by illegal operators.” Concerns over licensed gambling ads in the Netherlands Concerns in the Netherlands extend beyond just unlicensed gambling advertisements. A recent study from the City University of Hong Kong and the University of Bristol revealed that a substantial share of advertisements from KSA-licensed gambling operators on Facebook and Instagram may have violated age-targeting rules. While online gaming licensees were more compliant, with just 7.3 per cent of their ads failing to meet standards, offline licence holders showed a far higher non-compliance rate, with close to 30 per cent of their campaigns breaking the Dutch prohibition on targeting individuals under 24. The violations were partly attributed to dependence on Meta’s automated Advantage+ optimisation tool, which sets the initial target age to 18 by default unless changed manually. The report also pointed to shortcomings in Meta’s reporting system, which employs wide age ranges like 18–24, complicating advertisers' ability to confirm they are specifically excluding 18 to 23-year-olds as required. The study advised Meta to supply audience reach data in single-year age groups. It also proposed that the technology company could set country-specific legal minimum ages as a default. Additionally, the researchers suggest the KSA make it clear to land-based gambling licensees that they must follow the same online advertising restrictions as online operators. More stringently, the report advocates for stronger enforcement actions, including the pre-approval of gambling advertisements. The government is already seeking to go further, having proposed a total ban on gambling advertising in the Netherlands. This article is provided by a third-party.

空氣中含有微塑膠,我們該擔心到什麼程度?

科學家持續研究微塑膠對環境與健康的影響。—Peter Dazeley—Getty Images(SeaPRwire) -   微塑膠似乎無所不在——從海洋、空氣,到飲用水和化妝品中都存在。研究人員甚至在人體各處發現了微塑膠,以及更微小的奈米塑膠的蹤跡。如今,科學家更有理由相信,空氣中的微小塑膠顆粒甚至可能正在加劇地球暖化。這引發了一個問題:我們應該有多擔憂?空氣中微塑膠的來源是什麼?微塑膠是極其微小的顆粒——尺寸小於五毫米——源自塑膠製品的分解。當塑膠製品破裂時,無論是清洗聚酯纖維衣物,還是輪胎磨損,都會脫落出微小的塑膠顆粒,小到足以被空氣攜帶並傳播。一旦進入空氣,它們便會以不同方式影響大氣。 「空氣中的顆粒能以兩種方式影響空氣,」朴茨茅斯大學環境污染教授費伊・庫塞羅(Fay Couceiro)表示。「它們要嘛將陽光反射回太空,使其無法加熱地表,從而冷卻地表、避免地球變暖;要嘛吸收陽光,進而加熱周圍空氣,導致地球變暖。」微塑膠對氣候的影響為何?本週稍早發表在《自然-氣候變遷》(Nature Climate Change)的一項研究發現,整體而言,空氣中的微塑膠——特別是黑色與有色顆粒——似乎吸收的熱量大於反射的量,因而加劇全球暖化。研究人員估計,大氣中的微塑膠對全球暖化的貢獻程度,約為黑碳(即煙灰,一種燃燒化石燃料產生的污染物)的六分之一。有一點很明確:其規模遠不及二氧化碳或甲烷等溫室氣體。「實際上,它們在我們空氣中的污染物裡只佔極極微小的比例,」倫敦帝國學院公共衛生學院環境毒理學副教授伊恩・穆德威(Ian Mudway)表示,他並未參與《自然》的研究。然而,這並不表示我們可以完全忽視這個問題。「我是否認為我們應該擔憂?是的。我是否認為我們該陷入恐慌?不,」庫塞羅說道,她也不是這項新研究的參與者。「我們還沒有足夠的證據顯示,必須將地球上所有的塑膠全數清除。但我認為我們應該保持警覺,並應致力於限制暴露風險,防止情況進一步惡化。」微塑膠對人體有多大的危害?關於微塑膠如何影響人類健康,我們所知仍十分有限。「要釐清塑膠的影響,而非肥胖、年齡或生活中其他種種因素的影響,需要很長時間,」庫塞羅指出。但我們目前所知的情況並不樂觀。人類細胞培養研究顯示,細胞中高濃度的微塑膠可能引發從發炎到內分泌失調等各種問題。庫塞羅曾參與的一項研究探討了微塑膠對藻類的影響,結果發現微塑膠的存在導致嚴重的生態系統擾亂。「藻類生長減緩,而這會對所有以藻類為食的生物造成連鎖效應,」她說。「這不僅影響牠們的食物來源,也直接影響牠們本身。例如,若動物攝入微塑膠,可能阻塞其腸道、卡住鰓部而阻礙呼吸,或塑膠中的化學物質滲出,干擾其荷爾蒙系統,導致不孕等問題。」穆德威強調,即使我們尚未完全理解其對人類健康的影響,也不代表應延後行動。「事實是,它對環境已造成毀滅性衝擊,這就足以促使我們採取行動。然而,我們卻總是不斷 desperate 地試圖證明它必然對人類健康有害,因為那才會是促使我們解決此問題的動機。」如何清除空氣中的微塑膠?目前要完全從大氣中消除微塑膠是不可能的。「即使我們停止生產塑膠,環境中仍會持續累積一段時間,」庫塞羅說。若你擔心暴露風險,在家中仍可採取一些措施。一項研究發現,專為空氣淨化設計的高效HEPA濾網,能成功去除室內99%以上的奈米顆粒。庫塞羅建議思考如何減少生活中塑膠的使用量。「減少家中塑膠的數量,就能減少我們吸入的微塑膠量,」她說。「我們需要理性應對,但已有足夠的傷害證據讓我們保持警覺。」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。

魯比歐試圖修補與教宗雷奧的緊張關係,此前曾與川普發生爭執

教宗若望十四世於2026年5月7日在梵蒂岡聖座,在宗座宮與國務卿馬可·魯比歐會面。——Simone Risoluti/梵蒂岡媒體/梵蒂岡攝影隊/蓋蒂圖片社(SeaPRwire) -   國務卿馬可·魯比歐於周四與教宗若望十四世會面,強調雙方「共同致力於促進和平」,並提及總統唐納·川普與這位天主教領袖之間持續的摩擦。就在川普譴責教宗反對伊朗戰爭、稱其「危及許多天主教徒」數日後,魯比歐抵達梵蒂岡執行關鍵外交任務。兩人 reportedly 交談了兩個半小時,美國國務院發言人湯米·皮克托(Tommy Pigott)表示,他們討論了「中東情勢以及西半球共同關注的議題」。皮克托指出:「此次會面凸顯了美國與聖座之間深厚的關係,以及雙方共同 promoting peace and human dignity 的承諾。」訪問期間,魯比歐還會見了聖座國務卿皮耶羅·帕羅林樞機主教,後者於會面前夕為教宗辯護,駁斥川普的攻擊。帕羅林周三表示:「以這種方式攻擊他或譴責他所做的事,對我來說似乎有點奇怪。」官員們也討論了「雙邊合作及迫切國際議題」,並「審視西半球的人道援助 efforts 以及實現中東持久和平的努力。」聖座表示,會談中強調了「不懈地 favor of peace 的必要性」。聖座在一份聲明中指出,雙方就 current events 交換意見,「特別關注處於戰爭、政治緊張與 humanitarian situations 的國家。」此外,雙方也表達了「 fostering good bilateral relations between the Holy See and the United States of America 的 shared commitment。」這次會面 originally overshadowed by Trump’s remarks earlier this week,其中他 mischaracterized Pope Leo’s position on the Iran war。「我覺得他正在危及許多天主教徒和許多人。但如果照教宗的意思,他認為伊朗擁有核武也沒什麼問題。」川普周一說道。這些言論促使教宗 publicly clarify both his own position and that of the Catholic Church,同時 urging critics to speak “truthfully”。教宗周二表示:「多年來,教會一直反對所有 nuclear weapons,所以在這點上毫無疑問。」芝加哥天主教 theological union 的公共神學教授 Steve Millies 告訴 TIME,這次訪問對川普政府而言是重要 diplomatic moment,因為「聖座對像美國這樣的大國具有極高的重要性」,其 global influence 不容小覷。然而到了周四,緊張氣氛似乎已緩和。在梵蒂岡互贈禮物時,魯比歐向教宗 presenting a small crystal paperweight shaped like a football, referencing the Pope’s support for the baseball team Chicago White Sox。「你是個棒球迷,但這上面印著國務院 seal,」魯比歐開玩笑說,一邊舉起紙鎮。「要送 someone who has everything 什麼禮物才好?」教宗則回贈一支 seemingly made of olive wood 的筆。「橄欖樹 naturally symbolizes peace,」教宗解釋道,並補充這支筆上刻有他的 coat of arms,另附一本 Vatican artworks 圖冊。教宗若望十四世與國務卿馬可·魯比歐在宗座宮互贈禮物,2026年5月7日,梵蒂岡聖座。——Simone Risoluti/梵蒂岡媒體透過梵蒂岡攝影隊/蓋蒂圖片社川普與教宗衝突始末首位美國籍教宗若望十四世 repeatedly clashed with the Trump Administration,議題涵蓋 immigration to the wars in Iran 及 ongoing U.S. blockade in Cuba。緊張局勢在川普 publicly attacking Leo、 accusing him of being “weak on crime” and “terrible for foreign policy” 後 escalated,起因是教宗呼籲結束伊朗戰爭。川普批評教宗,加上一張 now-deleted AI-generated image depicting himself in a Jesus-like form,引發基督徒與保守派的 backlash。儘管如此,川普仍 repeatedly mischaracterize the Pope’s position on Iran, prompting Leo to once again reiterate his support for diplomacy。教宗表示:「我 always believe that it is much better to enter into dialogue, than to look for arms, and to support the arms industry, which gains billions and billions of dollars each year。」魯比歐持續執行外交任務在前往梵蒂岡前,魯比歐堅稱此次訪問 long been planned,但 also acknowledged that “obviously we had some stuff that happened。”他同時為川普辯護,主張總統 comments had been misunderstood。「總統 basically 說的是,伊朗不能有 nuclear weapon,否則他們會對 many Catholics, Christians, and others 造成威脅,」魯比歐解釋。Millies 告訴 TIME,這場 dispute comes at a politically sensitive moment for Republicans ahead of the U.S. midterm elections。「對大多數天主教徒而言,美國總統 repeatedly attacking the Pope in such pointed ways,會 trigger a reaction,而這種反應對川普總統或共和黨都不利,」他說。此行 also represented a political test for Rubio himself, widely viewed as a leading contender for the Republican presidential nomination in 2028。國務卿將 continued his diplomatic mission in Italy, scheduled to meet Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni and Foreign Minister Antonio Tajani on Friday。這些 meeting are expected to further test Rubio’s diplomatic skills as tensions between Washington and Rome widen after Trump threatened to withdraw U.S. troops from Italy and Spain over their refusal to support the war in Iran。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。

Light & Wonder Announces 2% Revenue Growth in Q1 2026

(AsiaGameHub) -   Consolidated revenue increased by 2 per cent year-over-year. US.- Light & Wonder reported US$790 million in revenue for the first quarter of 2026, marking a 2 per cent increase compared to the same period last year. Adjusted EBITDA grew by 5 per cent to US$327 million; however, net income fell by 37 per cent to US$52 million following the company’s allocation of approximately US$50 million to legal reserves, which included a portion of a US$128 million settlement related to a dispute with Aristocrat Leisure Ltd. Gaming revenue rose 3 per cent to US$512 million during the quarter, primarily driven by a 38 per cent increase in gaming operations revenue, reaching US$239 million. Table products revenue climbed 24 per cent to US$63 million. Gaming machine sales revenue declined by 25 per cent, largely due to the timing of video lottery terminal shipments in North America and international markets relative to the prior-year period. The average selling price per unit remained stable at around US$19,700. In the igaming segment, revenue grew by 18 per cent while EBITDA increased by 22 per cent, supported by expansion in the United States. SciPlay revenue continued to face pressure amid what the company described as a mature social casino market, although direct-to-consumer revenue and active user metrics improved sequentially. Chief Financial Officer Oliver Chow stated that the group remains focused on investing in growth opportunities, reducing debt levels, and returning capital to shareholders through share repurchases. According to the May 6 filing, 25 per cent of total outstanding shares have been repurchased since the initiation of the company’s buyback programme. Light & Wonder anticipates continuing to lower its leverage through 2026, aiming for a net debt leverage ratio below 3.0x by the first half of 2027. The company was recently awarded a new 10-year contract by the Illinois Gaming Board (IGB) following a public competitive bidding process. It has served as the central system provider and operator for the IGB since its launch in 2012. This article is provided by a third-party.

—圖說:TIME 攝影插圖(圖片來源:Ksuview via Canva;gojak Getty Images;Pexels via Canva、Sargis Zubov Getty Images;Billion Photos via Canva;Rezboy via Canva)(SeaPRwire) -   根據美國勞工統計局的最新數據,美國人平均每天享有超過五小時的休閒時間,而這項數據追蹤了美國人的時間運用方式。無論財富或教育程度如何,這五小時的平均值皆適用。根據近期一項調查,近九成的美國人擁有至少一項嗜好。然而,同一項調查也發現,大多數人每週投入嗜好的時間不到五小時。與此同時,最新統計顯示,我們每天花在社群媒體上的時間超過兩小時,而看電視及其他螢幕娛樂也佔據了休閒時間中的相當比例。適度的螢幕放鬆並無不妥。但研究嗜好的專家通常會將嗜好與被動式休閒活動(如看電視或滑社群媒體)區分開來。這種區分之所以重要,是因為根據研究,真正的嗜好是健康且充實生活的重要組成部分。倫敦大學學院心理生物學與流行病學教授黛西·范考特(Daisy Fancourt)表示:「嗜好與其他休閒活動的不同之處在於,它涉及技能的習得或學習。嗜好提供一種累積與成長的感覺——一種透過自我挑戰以進步或達成新目標的過程——這有助於滿足我們對意義與目的的需求。」在范考特的一些研究中,她與同事發現,當老年人擁有嗜好時,他們往往更快樂、對生活更滿意,且憂鬱程度較低。其他研究也在年輕族群中發現類似益處:嗜好有助於支持心理健康與幸福感、提升生活品質,並減輕焦慮、壓力與憂鬱。倫敦大學學院資深研究員潔西卡·波恩(Jessica Bone)長期研究嗜好及其對心理健康的影響,她表示:「要明確界定什麼算是嗜好並不容易。但首先,它不應是有償活動——而是出於內在回報或樂趣而從事的事,而非為了金錢;其次,它必須包含主動參與的元素。換句話說,你是在主動創造某些事物,或投入精力與資源於能提升自身技能或能力的事情上。」根據波恩與范考特的一些研究,嗜好通常涉及新鮮感、創造力、感官刺激、自我表達與認知啟發。波恩以運動為例,特別是那些逐步增加挑戰性或包含社交互動的運動,皆可視為嗜好的一種。園藝、收藏、手工藝、學習語言等也都是常見例子。她說:「嗜好有助於建立自尊與自信。它們讓我們有機會運用大腦、社交技巧或能力,而這些可能是工作無法提供的。」許多關於幸福感的研究文獻區分了「享樂型」(hedonic)與「實現型」(eudaimonic)兩種快樂形式。享樂型幸福通常來自短暫而微小的愉悅,例如享用美食或觀看有趣影片所帶來的快樂;而實現型快樂則指那些能帶來更深層、更持久成就感或滿足感的體驗。嗜好,被一些研究者稱為「嚴肅的休閒追求」,似乎正好滿足了這種實現型的渴望。澳洲查爾斯史都華大學資深講師兼休閒研究者亞斯丹·曼蘇里安(Yazdan Mansourian)表示:「它們支持生活中更真實的層面,並為自我實現創造條件。人們不僅在做自己喜歡的事,更是在成為真正想成為的人。」對許多人而言,嗜好有助於滿足有薪工作與被動式休閒所無法填補的需求。「在工作中,成就通常與收入、績效指標或職涯進展掛鉤,」曼蘇里安說。但在嗜好領域,我們的成就無需依賴外部認可仍能保有意義。「這讓人們可以純粹為了追求卓越而投入,這種過程既令人滿足,也具有恢復身心的效果。」儘管許多人認同嗜好的好處並願意投入時間,但一個常見問題仍然存在:如何找到真正想追求的嗜好?在英國,以及美國部分地區日益普及的做法是「社會處方」(social prescribing),醫療提供者會像開藥一樣,為患者處方嗜好或其他健康活動。波恩表示:「我認為社會處方是接觸嗜好的極佳途徑。這類對話通常圍繞著『什麼對你重要』——無論是在戶外活動的時間,或與他人相處的時光——以及如何透過符合你興趣的嗜好來填補這些空缺。」在她的新書《藝術療愈:藝術如何拯救生命的科學》(Art Cure: The Science of How the Arts Save Lives)中,范考特描述人們透過接觸音樂、繪畫、舞蹈及其他藝術形式所獲得的深刻益處,包括提升幸福感、減輕壓力,以及降低罹患失智症與憂鬱症等疾病的風險。她說:「藝術參與提供多重感官刺激,並涉及創造力與想像力。」雖然她是藝術類嗜好的熱忱支持者,但她也提醒人們保持開放態度,探索什麼可能真正打動自己。「我建議大家先為自己創造多種新的藝術體驗,」她說。例如可以參加繪畫或舞蹈課程,或學習演奏樂器。「你必須親自嘗試,才會知道自己是否喜歡。」無論你決定投入哪項新嗜好,她建議至少堅持10到12週。「如果你持續幾個月,通常會改變整個體驗,讓你做起這件事時感到更自在與自信,」她解釋道。「一般來說,研究顯示在三個月內即可看到心理健康與幸福感的改善。若你未感受到這些好處,不妨考慮嘗試其他活動。」請記住,嗜好的目標並非成就或卓越,而是深化你對某件迷人且愉快事物的投入。曼蘇里安建議:「與其問『我該做什麼?』,不如問『什麼吸引我?』。人們有時覺得必須一開始就選對活動,但探索幾種可能性本身就是過程的一部分。」而且,某種程度上,這也是樂趣的一部分。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。

aging 的一個好處?你會 fewer regrets

—Richard Drury—Getty Images(SeaPRwire) -   很少有情感像後悔那樣纏人——那種因擔心自己選錯伴侶、從事錯誤職業,或結束了本可以挽救的婚姻而產生的哀悼與憂鬱。在人的一生當中,有許多這樣的轉折點。照理來說,活得越久,後悔的事應該越多。但發表在《Emotion》期刊上的一項新研究發現,事實恰恰相反:老年人的後悔比年輕人少,而且即使有後悔,也能處理得更好。荷蘭Tilburg University心理學系助理教授、首席作者Julia Nolte表示:「總體而言,老年人似乎更會退一步,不太去想那些後悔的事,也不太考慮該如何應對。我們對心理老化過程中的這種差異及其隨時間對我們的影響很感興趣。」為了進行這項研究,Nolte和她的同事邀請了90位年齡在21至89歲之間的受試者,列出5件近期的後悔事,以及5件早年發生的後悔事。接著,受試者需將這些後悔歸類為「hot」、「wistful」或「despairing」。「hot」類別包括憤怒、尷尬和惱怒的情緒;「wistful」類別則是懷舊、多愁善感和沉思的感受;「despairing」類別則是絕望和悲傷。受試者隨後對這些情緒的強烈程度進行排名。最後,研究人員要求受試者描述他們可能用來扭轉或糾正後悔行為的策略,或者至少學會接受已經發生的事情。Nolte表示:「我們研究了人們如何應對後悔,他們目前如何嘗試解決這些感受,以及對未來的想法。例如,如果他們有健康相關或工作相關的後悔,他們會思考:『我如何影響未來發生的事情?我能預防嗎?』」研究結果令人驚訝。總體而言,老年人受近期後悔的影響遠不如年輕人。儘管老年人和年輕人報告的長期後悔程度相似,但老年人對過去的錯誤所產生的憤怒、惱怒和尷尬情緒較少。Nolte說:「老年人的hot情緒較少,無論是近期還是長期後悔都是如此。」研究人員還探討了人們是否更傾向於後悔自己做過的事(稱為regrets of commission),還是後悔未做的事(稱為regrets of omission)。前者基於主動選擇,例如搬到另一個城市或選擇伴侶;後者則是指未採取原本可以採取的行動,例如錯過一項有利可圖的投資或未上大學。年輕人對自己做過的事有更多後悔,而老年人則對未做的事有更多後悔。至於應對方式,研究人員發現,年輕人比老年人更有可能制定計劃來糾正或緩解後悔。老年人似乎認為,後悔是他們必須學會接受的事情。Nolte表示:「老年人使用的心理修復方法較少。」研究人員尚未就這種差異的原因得出任何結論。老年人可能只是更願意接受現實生活,而不是某種理想版本。Nolte也指出,這可能與世代差異有關。例如,Boomers可能有過一系列文化經歷,使得他們對後悔的態度比Millennials或Gen Z更包容。Nolte說:「人們出生的時代可能有某種影響因素,這意味著如果我們在50年後再次進行這項研究,不一定會得到相同的結果。」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。

Executives in the gaming industry stay optimistic as industry growth persists; contracts for sports events are causing growing concern in the industry

(AsiaGameHub) -   The American Gaming Association has reported a 21.4 per cent net positive outlook among executives, despite 81 per cent identifying sports event contracts on prediction markets as a significant risk. US – The American Gaming Association (AGA)’s latest Gaming Industry Outlook has shown that gaming executives hold anoptimistic view about the industry’s future, as key performance indicators continue to improve. However, new risks—especially those linked to prediction market platforms offering sports event contracts—are becoming a growing source of concern for industry leaders, according to the survey. The Gaming Conditions Index (GCI) reflects real economic activity across gaming revenue, employment, wages, executive sentiment, and casino hotel event activity, which grew by 1.5 per cent year-over-year, indicating ongoing confidence and momentum within the sector. Bill Miller, AGA President and CEO, said: “The legal, state- and tribal-regulated gaming industry continues to show resilience and adaptability amid a rapidly changing economic climate.” “Operators are concentrating on investing in innovation and providing top-tier entertainment experiences, while also managing a shifting competitive environment and regulatory framework.” Key findings include: Over 60 per cent of executives anticipate increased capital investment, higher revenues, and improved balance sheets over the next six to 12 months. Executive sentiment reached its highest level since Q3 2022, with a 21.4 per cent net positive outlook across core business indicators. 62 per cent of executives intend to raise capital investments over the following six to 12 months, while promotional spending is expected to decrease for the second consecutive survey period. Emerging threats Despite strong fundamentals, prediction markets offering sports event contracts have emerged as a major concern, with 81 per cent of executives naming them a “very significant” threat to the regulated gaming sector. “Illegal sports betting via sports event contracts is increasingly undermining legal, state- and tribal-regulated operators,” stated Miller. “It’s evident that the legal, regulated industry perceives this as a serious challenge and will persistently oppose it to safeguard the integrity of our industry.” Executives also highlighted several additional evolving risks affecting operations: Inflation, tariffs, and geopolitical uncertainties remain key operational constraints, while federal regulatory issues have surged in importance. Employee wages were cited by 54 per cent of respondents as the primary cost pressure, followed by tax and regulatory policy shifts. Competition from new forms of gaming was flagged by 42 per cent of participants (up from 25 per cent in Q3 2025). Methodology The AGA Gaming Industry Outlook is produced biannually by Oxford Economics. It delivers a timely assessment of recent industry performance and future expectations based on executive sentiment, gaming activity, and economic metrics. The Q1 2026 survey was conducted between March 23 and April 8, 2026. A total of 26 executives participated, including senior-level representatives from major international and domestic gaming firms, gaming equipment providers, and online gaming and sports betting operators affiliated with AGA.

你的伴侶說你不願傾聽的真正原因

—照片插畫:TIME(來源圖片:skynesher/Getty Images)(SeaPRwire) -   我們大多數人都對「好聽眾」的定義有相同的看法:她眼神溫暖地注視著你。他適時地點頭回應。她用柔和、不带批評的口吻反映你的感受;他不看手機一眼。但先別急著下結論——根據聽力領域的主要研究人員之一指出,這樣的人其實是個文化虛構產物。「所謂『好的聆聽者』根本是個神話,」密西西比大學媒體與傳播系教授葛拉漢·波迪(Graham Bodie)表示,他是研究人們如何傾聽、理解並回應他人的專家。「認為存在一套適用於所有人的普遍行為準則,或一種每個人都應該採用的聆聽方式」,這只是個幻想。波迪花了畢生精力反對職場訓練課程和感情建議專欄中那些簡潔明瞭的「主動傾聽」清單:保持眼神接觸、點頭、重述對方的話、提出開放性問題、不打斷對方。他說這些建議本身沒有錯。問題在於將這些行為視為放諸四海皆準的規範——彷彿成為好聽眾只是一項你可以隨時擺姿勢的表演,而非在當下情境中必須即時判斷的選擇。真正的問題不在於你是不是個好聽眾。而在於:你是否正在以對方所需的方式傾聽?你在傾聽,只是方式不對波迪說,大多數關於傾聽的爭論其實並非真正質疑某人是否專心聆聽。而是雙方對彼此需求產生落差所致。「當我們評斷一個人是否為好聽眾時,其實是根據我們內心對『何謂良好傾聽』的特定認知框架來做判斷。」他說道。「一旦這種認知與對方實際表現不符,就會陷入奇怪的爭執:『你根本沒在聽我說話!』『我有啊!』『不,你沒有。』」他以一個常見情境為例:另一半下班回家後,因為工作上的事情感到難過。你的本能反應是立刻跳進解決問題的狀態。你自認表現得很棒——但對方卻覺得被你輕忽了。「提供建議是很危險的事,」波迪說。「當有人給我們建議時,等於是在告訴我們:『你們自己處理不了這個問題。』而我們最不喜歡的就是被認定無法獨立解決問題。」有時候,對方只是想找個肩膀訴苦,而你只需要陪伴與安慰。分析型人格的人經常陷入這種狀況。那些傾向質疑、追根究柢、習慣問「你的資料來源是什麼?」「請證明給我聽」的人,常被貼上冷漠或具攻擊性的標籤。但波迪指出,他們可能只是在以對方需要的模式傾聽——只是那個模式不符合說話者的期待罷了。「我是個壞聽眾嗎?只因為我希望你說的內容有可信來源?」他問道。「還是說我只是用一種對方以為不需要的方式在聽?」注意對方真正想要的東西既然不存在 universally 的好聽眾,那該如何做到有效傾聽?波迪說答案很簡單也很明顯:仔細留意對方真正使用的字眼。「對方究竟在說什麼?」他解釋,「他們反覆強調哪些詞語?什麼對他們來說最重要?」然後模仿並呼應他們的表達方式。如果某人使用情緒化語言——例如「我覺得……」、「我真的很 frustrated(沮喪)」——他們很可能希望你加強情感共鳴。若對方談論的是數據與事實,那麼配合討論具體資料會比較合適。預設某種傾聽模式套用在所有對話裡,正是出於善意卻總是失之交臂的原因。如果你夠了解正在交談的人,波迪建議可以直接開口詢問:「我想成為此刻最有幫助的那個人,你現在需要我做些什麼?」波迪指出,多數人都有某種預設傾聽模式——分析型、給建議型、情感支持型、心不在焉型——而且不分對象、無時無刻都在套用。然後又驚訝於愛你的人為何總抱怨自己不被聽見。他認為解決之道不是練習更好的傾聽技巧,而是更專注地去觀察。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。

Birkerod, Denmark, May 7, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - F1Mag® extends UMag's drone-based magnetic sensing portfolio with a high-speed, airborne system for real-time detection of naval mines and submarines in open-sea environments, covering up to 6,000 hectares per hour, without placing marine vessels and personnel at risk.Why this matters nowAs Iranian sea mines remain unaccounted for in the Strait of Hormuz, NATO's Baltic Sentry mission scales up patrols of subsea infrastructure, and Black Sea drift mines continue to threaten civilian shipping, UMag Solutions today launches F1Mag®, an airborne magnetic sensing system that lets defence operators detect naval mines, submarines and uncrewed underwater vehicles (UUVs) from the air - at speeds of up to 120 km/h, without deploying anything into the water.After more than a year of testing with both naval and army units, F1Mag® is now officially launched. F1Mag® can be mounted on any drone and flown over the area of interest. It detects the magnetic threats below the sea surface such as moored and bottom mines, submarines, UUVs, and other metal objects, and delivers the data in real time. The sensitivity of F1Mag® allows operators to scan for naval mines down to 15-30m below the sea surface and submarines at depths of 500+ metres."We designed F1Mag® for the subsea threats that define modern warfare. The need to detect those threats at high speed, with accurate real-time data and without putting people or equipment in the water, or having marine vessel nearby, has never been greater. UMag Solutions has already used F1Mag® to track submarines and UUVs and to find naval mines in open sea.""Because it operates from the air, F1Mag® is far less dependent on weather, sea state or vessel support. It is unaffected by sea ice, muddy waters or boundary layers in the water column" says Arne Døssing Andreasen, CEO and Co-Founder of UMag Solutions.Naval mines and quiet submarines have re-emerged as some of the most cost-effective and politically disruptive weapons in modern conflict. A single mine or even the credible suspicion of one is enough to spike insurance premiums, reroute global trade and force navies into weeks of painstaking clearance operations.The threat landscape, region by region:Strait of Hormuz: roughly 20% of global seaborne oil and a quarter of LNG trade transits this chokepoint. Iranian mine-laying activity since early 2026 has produced an active clearance campaign and reports that even the mine-layers have lost track of what was deployed. Proving the absence of a mine is now harder than finding one.Baltic Sea: a string of cable, pipeline and power-link incidents since 2022 has put NATO's Baltic Sentry mission on permanent watch. Shallow waters, heavy traffic and deniable "shadow fleet" vessels make rapid, wide-area subsea screening essential.Black Sea: drifting mines from the Russia-Ukraine war continue to wash through the basin and into the approaches of the Bosphorus.South China Sea & Indo-Pacific: hardening submarine activity, contested island chains and dense undersea cable infrastructure raise the cost of any future mining campaign.Mediterranean & wider littorals: legacy UXO deployment continues demand for fast, scalable mine and anomaly detection.Conventional mine countermeasures (MCM) rely on surface ships, divers and tethered or UUVs - slow, exposed, weather-dependent and limited by sea state, ice and turbid water. F1Mag® flips that model: the sensor is in the air, the operator is on shore or aboard the host vessel, and the survey speed is measured in hectares per hour, not square metres.What F1Mag® doesNaval mine detection (MCM): 30-70 hectares per hour, with the sensitivity to map mines 15-30 m below the sea surface.Anti-submarine warfare (ASW): up to 1,000-6,000 hectares per hour and several hundreds meters of depth, suitable for wide-area screening of chokepoints, bastions and approach lanes.All-Environment Detection: unaffected by sea ice, sea state, muddy water or thermal/halocline boundary layers.Land applications: vehicles and fortress structures can be detected in dense forestsReal-time data delivered to the operator in flight; no recovery, no post-processing delay and direct integration with existing NATO STANAG 4817.Drone-agnostic by designF1Mag® integrates with highend drone platforms in current defence and dual-use service worldwide, including UMS Skeldar (V-200), High-Eye (Airboxer), Pterodynamics (Transwing), Acecore Technologies (NOA), Airolit (CX-10), Hecto Drone (HD-606), Freespace Operations (Callisto 25), Inspired Flight (IF1200), Velos Rotors (V3) and Harris Aerial (Carrier H6)."By making F1Mag® drone-agnostic, we let defence customers use the platforms they already trust, and we shorten the path from procurement to operational capability," Døssing Andreasen adds.Built on battle-proven technologyF1Mag® extends the technology behind UMag's ultra-sensitive V2Mag® system, already deployed by defence forces in several European countries for land and coastal mine mapping. Since summer 2025, F1Mag® has been tested and validated for open-sea naval mine detection, anti-submarine warfare operations and the detection of vehicles concealed in forested terrain.AvailabilityF1Mag® is available now for operational deployment, demonstrations and partner integrations. UMag Solutions will be exhibiting at XPONENTIAL 2026 in Detroit (Stand 14020) and NATO Naval Mine Warfare Conference 2026 in Ostend, Belgium, featuring both V2Mag® and F1Mag®.About UMag Solutions ApS:UMag Solutions is a Danish defence company pioneering drone-based quantum magnetic sensing for subsurface threat detection.

Play’n GO launches new video slot, Colt Lightning Inferno

(AsiaGameHub) -   In the game, the untamed West is reimagined as a battleground where fire and sky clash. Press release.- Play’n GO launches Colt Lightning Inferno, a high-energy video slot where fire and lightning converge across a scorched frontier driven by elemental power. The Colt returns in a storm of electric intensity, charging through a desert landscape torn by thunderbolts and swirling storm clouds. In Colt Lightning Inferno, the wild West is transformed into a battlefield between flame and sky, where a mystical horseshoe pulses with energy and a blazing fireball dominates the center of the reels. Animal spirits—from soaring eagles to alert mountain lions and coiled serpents—embody survival in a land shaped by heat and light. At the heart of the tempest lies the Inferno Core, a powerful visual element that collects electric fire coins as they strike. Each surge heightens the atmosphere, reflecting Play’n GO’s commitment to immersive worlds and evolving reel mechanics. When lightning frames descend, symbols undergo rapid transformation in bursts of flame, emphasizing nature’s subjugation to elemental force. And when fireballs sweep across the grid, the Colt itself evolves, taking on a more ferocious form influenced by the storm. Colt Lightning Inferno continues Play’n GO’s tradition of animal-themed titles and dynamic reel experiences, blending cinematic storytelling with expanding paylines activated during pivotal moments. The Western setting provides a bold departure from the lush jungles and mythic realms featured in previous releases, highlighting the studio’s versatility while upholding its signature quality and clarity across both mobile and desktop platforms. Magnus Wallentin, games ambassador at Play’n GO, stated: “Colt Lightning Inferno channels a raw, elemental energy that resonates instantly with players. The visual evolution of the reels and the central role of the Inferno Core give the game a distinct identity within our collection, while the Western storm motif introduces a compelling new dimension.” With fire above and thunder beneath, Colt Lightning Inferno marks a formidable entry in Play’n GO’s 2026 lineup.

Flutter Q1 revenue up 14% as Brazil surge counters US slowdown

(AsiaGameHub) -   Flutter Entertainment reported first-quarter 2026 revenue of $4.30 billion, marking a 14% increase compared to Q1 2025. This strong year-over-year growth was largely driven by rapid expansion in Brazil and solid international performance, which helped counterbalance weaker momentum in the US market and associated margin pressures. Adjusted EBITDA reached $616 million, up 20% from the prior year, though it was affected by higher costs and foreign exchange impacts on profitability. International revenue stood at $2.54 billion, reflecting a 27% rise over the same period last year, supported by robust growth across multiple regions. The most significant gains were recorded in Southern Europe and Africa (110%), while Central and Eastern Europe saw a 14% increase. A standout performer was Brazil, where year-on-year revenue surged by 722%, boosted by the integration of Betnacional into Flutter’s operations. CEO Peter Jackson noted that “Flutter is investing with conviction in Brazil” and anticipates the country will remain a key long-term growth market for the company. Flutter CEO Peter Jackson stated: While we achieved meaningful progress this quarter, additional efforts are required to sustain the positive trends in our US sportsbook business. Today, we announced management changes aimed at positioning the company for its next phase of growth. The core fundamentals of our business remain strong, and I am confident in our strategy, organizational structure, and global portfolio of local hero brands to capture the substantial long-term growth opportunities ahead. I am optimistic about continued progress throughout the remainder of 2026. Despite robust top-line growth, mounting cost pressures and foreign exchange losses led to a sharp decline in net profit, which fell to $84 million. However, Adjusted EBITDA rose slightly to $631 million. Owing to ongoing challenges in the US market and increased investment initiatives, Flutter has revised its full-year revenue guidance downward to $18.31 billion and lowered its full-year Adjusted EBITDA projection to $2.87 billion.
