Catherine Whitaker, David Law and Matt Roberts react to another day of US Open action, headlined by Elena Rybakina winning the match she needed to guarantee that she will be the new women's world number one on Monday. Part one - We cover two more compelling women's quarter-finals as Rybakina beat Zheng Qinwen and Coco Gauff saved a couple of match points to defeat Mirra Andreeva. In what way does Rybakina becoming world number one signal a new era for the WTA? Will this run be a catalyst for Zheng? What happened to Gauff's serve and forehand in the first two sets of her quarter-final? And how did she still manage to win the match? Part two (24:53) - The men's matches were far less interesting on Wednesday but we discuss Karen Khachanov reaching a third major semi-final after Alexander Blockx was forced to retire, and Alexander Zverev's straight sets win against Botic van de Zandschulp. What is going on with Zverev's ball bouncing? Will he pick up his form this tournament or not? And how much of an obstacle will Khachanov be for him in the semis?Part three (39:22) - Preview and predictions for the women's semi-finals.

Coco Gauff SAVES TWO MATCH POINTS in an incredible US Open 2026 comeback against Mirra Andreeva!

Second seed Elena Rybakina ended Chinese qualifier Zheng Qinwen's remarkable U.S. Open run with a 3-6, 6-1, 6-4 victory on Wednesday. Zheng is the first qualifier to reach the quarter-final stage since Briton Emma Raducanu's title run in 2021.

Catherine Whitaker, David Law and Matt Roberts recap another day of US Open which was headlined by Zheng Qinwen once again coming back to win a set from 0-5 down, this time en route to knocking out Iga Swiatek. Part one - We discuss the extraordinary Zheng comeback, why it's so special to see her back in the latter stages of a Grand Slam, and her prospects in the next round against Elena Rybakina. The Kazakh is now just win one away from becoming World No.1 after a flawless display to defeat Naomi Osaka. How did Osaka and Swiatek process their defeats? We also chat about wins for both Coco Gauff and Mirra Andreeva who set up a quarter-final clash. Part two (37:25) - On the men's side, we cover Alexander Zverev finding form and avoiding another really late finish, five set wins for both Botic van de Zandschulp and Karen Khachanov, and a big injury concern for Alexander Blockx despite his victory. Part three (51:55) - Previewing and predicting Tuesday's quarter-finals. Can either Linda Noskova or Ben Shelton defeat Aryna Sabalenka or Carlos Alcaraz? And how will Frances Tiafoe and Alex Michelsen handle the Arthur Ashe stage?Thank you to Steve Furgal's International Tennis Tours Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast, the Premium Hospitality and Experience provider for supporting our US Open coverage.They can organise your dream tennis-watching experience at the biggest tournaments in the world, inducing the WTA Finals held this year at Indian Wells, 8th-15th November.Just go to Tours4Tennis.com/Podcast and use the code DEUCE5 at checkout for 5% off.5% off select WTA Finals packages with code DEUCE5 at tours4tennis.com/podcast.

Who will reach the US Open 2026 semi finals?

Willkommen zur neuen Ausgabe von Chip & Charge – dieses Mal vom neunten Tag der US Open 2026. Dieses Mal geht es vor allem um das vergangene Wochenende, welches einerseits die Auslosungen nochmal durchgeschüttelt hat und zeitgleich einige US-Amerikanerinnen und US-Amerikaner in die zweite Woche des Turniers brachte. Bei den Damen schied am Montag eine der Favoritinnen auf den Titel aus. Denn Iga Swiatek verlor in zwei Sätzen gegen Qinwen Zheng, obwohl sie im ersten Durchgang schon mit 0:5 hinten lag. So geht eine maue Grand Slam Saison für Swiatek zu Ende, während das Comeback von Zheng langsam Fahrt aufnimmt. Parallel konnte ...

Zheng Qinwen pulled off an epic upset, winning the last seven games to stun Madison Keys and keep her unlikely US Open challenge going on Saturday.中国网球选手郑钦文上周六上演了一场史诗级逆转。在比赛最后连赢7局的情况下，她爆冷击败麦迪逊·凯斯（Madison Keys），继续书写自己在美网赛场上的黑马征程。The Paris Olympics gold medalist from China triumphed 1-6, 7-6 (7/3), 7-5, defying the vocal pro-Keys crowd and further demonstrating that she is headed back to her best after a lengthy recovery from elbow surgery last year.这位巴黎奥运会女单金牌得主以1-6、7-6（7/3）、7-5 的比分战胜对手，顶住了现场支持凯斯的热烈观众声势，也进一步证明自己在经历去年肘部手术后的长期恢复后，正逐渐找回最佳状态。It has all made for an emotional spell in New York for the 23-year-old, who felt she "forgot how to compete" during her enforced absence but can now feel her competitive fire burning.对于这位23岁的中国球员来说，这段纽约之旅充满了情感波动。郑钦文此前曾表示，在被迫缺席比赛期间，她一度感觉自己“忘记了如何竞争”，但如今，她重新感受到内心的竞技激情正在燃烧。"I have a lot of emotions when I'm playing the qualie matches," she said. "I was even crying after I won the third match reaching to the main draw, and you know, main draw is just the beginning.“参加资格赛的时候，我有很多情绪。”郑钦文说道，“第三场资格赛获胜、晋级正赛后，我甚至哭了。你知道，进入正赛其实才只是开始。”"For today, after coming back from 0-5, the first thing in that moment I thought, 'Please, I don't want to be beaten 6-0.'"“今天的比赛，当我从0-5落后开始追赶时，那一刻我第一个想法是：‘拜托，我不想被打一个6-0。'”She got her game on the board, and saved a match point at 5-1, and she was off and running.她随后终于拿下一局，并在1-5落后时挽救了一个赛点，比赛的局势也由此开始发生变化。"Then I felt I have a lot of energy. I can just keep pushing, keep fighting," she said.“那之后，我感觉自己充满了能量。我可以继续向前冲，继续战斗。”她说。"At the end when I won the match, it's like, 'Wow, that's incredible.'“最后赢下比赛的时候，我真的觉得，‘哇，这太不可思议了。'”"Finally, one time the luck is on my side because all these three, four months I been suffering a lot."“终于有一次，幸运站在了我这一边，因为过去三四个月，我一直承受着很多痛苦。”With few matches under her belt this year, Zheng said it took her some time to get to grips with Keys's big forehand.由于今年参加的比赛场次有限，郑钦文表示，自己花了一些时间才逐渐适应凯斯强劲的正手进攻。And when she held serve for 5-1 in the third she could immediately feel Keys's conviction wane.而当凯斯在第三盘以5-1领先并成功保发时，郑钦文很快察觉到对手的信心开始动摇。"I see there is some maybe doubt or, I don't know, not as clean (hitting) as before," Zheng said.“我看到她可能出现了一些怀疑，或者说，她的击球不像之前那么干净利落。”郑钦文说。"She started to make a lot of mistakes in that moment, and I start to feel like, 'OK, I need to be there. I need to keep fighting, don't give up, and let's see what's going to happen.'"“那一刻她开始出现很多失误，而我开始觉得：‘好，我必须站在那里，我必须继续战斗，不能放弃，让我们看看最后会发生什么。'”Keys said her struggles were something that has been building. After she earned her big lead in the third, she said, "I got really scared, like I couldn't swing ... I felt like I couldn't play tennis anymore."凯斯表示，她的问题其实已经积累了一段时间。在第三盘取得巨大领先后，她说：“我真的开始害怕了，我好像无法挥拍……我感觉自己已经不会打网球了。”For Zheng, it was a reminder never to let go of a match until the final point.对于郑钦文而言，这场胜利再次提醒她，比赛不到最后一分，永远不能放弃。"Tennis sometimes feels like rollercoaster," she said. "So this gives me also lesson that in a tennis match you always have to be there.“网球有时候就像过山车一样。”她说，“所以这场比赛也给了我一个教训：在网球比赛中，你必须始终保持专注。”"It doesn't matter if you are winning or losing. You have a match point or you don't have a match point, you just need to concentrate every single point as long as you can."“不管你是在领先还是落后，不管你有没有赛点，你都必须尽可能专注于每一个球，坚持到最后。”【词汇提炼】storm home /stɔːrm həʊm/ v.强势获胜；一路冲刺取胜champion /ˈtʃæmpiən/ n.冠军；优胜者epic /ˈepɪk/ adj.史诗般的；惊人的；壮观的upset /ˈʌpset/ n.爆冷；意外失利upset /ʌpˈset/ v.爆冷击败；使震惊stun /stʌn/ v.使震惊；爆冷击败emotional /ɪˈməʊʃənl/ adj.情绪激动的；充满情感的get to grips with sth. /ɡet tuː ɡrɪps wɪð/ phr.开始掌握；逐渐适应

Elena Rybakina vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their QUARTERFINAL at the 2026 US Open. The World No. 1 ranking on one side, the most improbable run of the tournament on the other.Elena Rybakina is one win from the top of the game. The second seed and reigning Australian Open champion is GUARANTEED TO REPLACE ARYNA SABALENKA AS WORLD NO. 1 if she reaches the semifinals here. She has been overwhelming all fortnight and produced her best performance yet in the round of 16, overpowering Naomi Osaka 6-1, 6-4 in a rematch of their Toronto quarterfinal. Add the Canadian Open final and 42 wins in her last 50 hard-court matches, and she is the form player on this surface.Zheng Qinwen's run is one of the stories of the year. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. She is now the FIRST QUALIFIER TO REACH THE US OPEN LAST EIGHT SINCE EMMA RADUCANU WON THE TITLE IN 2021 — and she has done it the hard way. Twice. She erased a 5-0 deficit and saved match point to beat Madison Keys 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5, then fell 5-0 down AGAIN against Iga Swiatek before reeling off SEVEN STRAIGHT GAMES to win 7-5, 6-3 — against an opponent who led their head-to-head 7-1.That single previous loss for Swiatek? The Paris 2024 Olympic semifinal, where Zheng also came from behind. This is what she does.An eight-match winning streak and nothing to lose against the most powerful player in the draw with the No. 1 ranking on the line. Who reaches the semifinals?

Jonathan is back from the US Open with stories to share. What is it like attending the US Open now that it's allegedly overrun by influencers? We talk about the difficulty of paying attention to tennis on the sport's biggest court. Plus, we hear about the experience of seeing Venus and Serena play doubles, staying up with Novak and Venus for the tournament's latest ever start, and cold green beans and caviar. As for the tennis, the top women have mostly survived and the race for #1 is still on, while the men are offering precious little when so much is at stake.  1:00 The Louis Armstrong virtual queue 5:40 The women's round of 16: Zheng, Osaka, Gauff, and more 17:40 Waiting around for Venus vs Kenin 20:00 Venus & Serena doubles: Venus was great! 24:35 Watching tennis in Ashe is not for the easily distracted 29:30 Men's results: say goodbye to the top half  44:25 Consider me uninfluenced 53:25 Other stuff from the grounds: lotharios, palomas, and caviar

Iga Swiatek vs Zheng Qinwen — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their FOURTH ROUND clash at the 2026 US Open. A six-time Grand Slam champion against an Olympic gold medallist who had to QUALIFY just to get here. One of the great comeback stories of the year.Iga Swiatek is seeded eighth, unusually low for her, after an erratic season — though she found form to win the Canadian Open in Toronto, beating Elina Svitolina and reaching the final. In New York she has been grinding rather than gliding: she needed two tiebreaks to get past 25th seed Marie Bouzkova 7-6(3), 7-6(3), dominating both breakers to reach the last 16. The 2022 US Open champion is chasing a second title here, and her section has been the toughest in the draw all fortnight.Zheng Qinwen's story is remarkable. The Paris 2024 Olympic gold medallist and former World No. 4 fell to No. 121 after elbow surgery and a year of stop-start rehab — she had to come through QUALIFYING just to reach this main draw. Now she's on a SIX-MATCH WINNING STREAK and back in the US Open round of 16 for the first time in two years, after producing the comeback of the tournament: from 5-0 DOWN in the deciding set and SAVING MATCH POINT against 22nd seed Madison Keys, she won the final SEVEN GAMES to take it 1-6, 7-6(3), 7-5.Two months ago Zheng lost to Alexandra Eala in the first round in Washington. This is a completely different player. Swiatek is the heavy favourite on paper — but nobody in this draw has more momentum or less to lose.

Hay pacientes con daño cerebral que tienen fuerza, movilidad o equilibrio suficientes para hacer mucho más de lo que finalmente consiguen en su vida diaria. Y otros, aparentemente más afectados, terminan siendo mucho más independientes. ¿Qué explica esa discrepancia? En este episodio utilizamos el concepto pedagógico de "fenotipo premotor" para explorar todo lo que ocurre entre disponer de movimiento y conseguir convertirlo en una acción: selección, preparación, secuenciación, predicción, aprendizaje, automatización y transferencia. Hablamos de corteza premotora, complejo motor suplementario, sinergias, aprendizaje explícito e implícito, retención, generalización y de por qué a veces "da un paso largo” funciona mejor que “extiende la rodilla”. También revisamos estrategias clínicas y tecnologías que podrían ayudarnos cuando el verdadero problema no está simplemente en la fuerza o el tono. Porque en neurorrehabilitación no basta con conseguir más movimiento: necesitamos conseguir que ese movimiento se convierta en una acción útil, estable, transferible y autónoma.

Today, we'll talk about Judge Bao Zheng, a legendary government official during the Northern Song Dynasty whose unwavering integrity has made him an enduring symbol of justice in China for nearly a thousand years.

In July 1683, more than 400 warships clashed around the Penghu Islands in one of the greatest naval battles in Chinese history. Qing admiral Shi Lang had come to destroy the last major stronghold of Ming loyalist resistance: the Zheng regime on Taiwan. The naval campaign would decide Taiwan's fate.More than three centuries later, the Battle of Penghu is politically explosive once again. A Chinese blockbuster about Shi Lang's victory was due to open in late July 2026, complete with the message that “the unification of Taiwan is unstoppable.” Then, just before its release, the movie mysteriously disappeared from cinemas.John and Eryk tell the story of the battle that brought Taiwan under Qing rule, and ask why Beijing got cold feet with their propaganda piece. Note: this episode is also available as a video (on Spotify and YouTube). Oh, and apologies for the er… creative madness of Eryk's movie trailer – blame it on the summer heat.

In part two of our deep dive into China (and part four of our socialist organization series), we break down how Mao attempted to dialectically sublate a national front and a united front. We explore the structural inclusion of the "patriotic national bourgeoisie" into the block of four classes (symbolized by the stars on the Chinese flag) and contrast it with classical Soviet developmental theory and orthodox Marxism.We also dive into:- The historical debate between Chen Duxiu, Li Dazhao, Lenin, and Trotsky.- Why modern "Hoxhaists" and Left Communists consider New Democracy to be revisionist.- The evolution of class structures under Deng Xiaoping and Jiang Zemin's "Three Represents" doctrine (allowing billionaires into the Party).- The reality of modern China's development: Is it a transitioning socialist project, or an hyper-competent form of state capitalism and developmental liberalism?Don't forget to like, subscribe, and hit the notification bell for Episode 5, where we pivot to National Frontism and National Bolshevism.Journal ArticlesDirlik, A.

Chinese autonomous driving companies are expanding their presence in Europe through partnerships with local mobility platforms, fleet operators and automakers, amid efforts by European governments to enable testing and future commercial deployment.在欧洲各国政府推动自动驾驶开展测试及未来商业化落地的背景下，中国自动驾驶企业正通过与当地出行平台、车队运营商以及车企合作，拓展欧洲市场。We Ride said on Aug 3 that it had formed a strategic partnership with Danish shared electric mobility provider Green Mobility.文远知行于 8 月 3 日表示，已与丹麦共享电动出行服务商 GreenMobility 达成战略合作。The partners aim to launch a public robotaxi service in Denmark in the first half of 2027, subject to regulatory approvals.双方计划在获得监管许可后，于 2027 年上半年在丹麦推出面向公众的自动驾驶出租车服务。Denmark is WeRide's first Nordic market and its sixth in Europe.丹麦是文远知行开拓的首个北欧市场，也是其在欧洲布局的第六个市场。The service will use WeRide's GXR, an EU‑compliant Level 4 autonomous vehicle.该服务将采用文远知行 GXR 车型，这是一款符合欧盟标准的 L4 级自动驾驶车辆。It is capable of operating without a human driver in designated areas and under specified conditions, according to the company.据该企业介绍，这款车辆可在划定区域及特定条件下实现无安全员运行。The partnership will draw on GreenMobility's experience in local fleet operations and shared mobility.本次合作将发挥 GreenMobility 在本土车队运营与共享出行领域的经验优势。Testing and deployment will be carried out in cooperation with Danish road and transport authorities and in accordance with Danish and EU regulations, the companies said.两家企业表示，测试与落地工作将和丹麦道路交通主管部门协同推进，遵守丹麦及欧盟相关法规。Tony Han, founder and CEO of WeRide, said the partnership could serve as a scalable model for deploying autonomous mobility services in new international markets.文远知行创始人兼首席执行官韩旭表示，本次合作可以成为面向海外新兴市场规模化落地自动驾驶出行服务的参考模式。The Danish project comes as European countries seek greater coordination on autonomous vehicle testing and deployment.在推进丹麦项目的同时，欧洲各国正谋求在自动驾驶车辆测试与落地方面加强协同。In June, 18 EU member states signed a joint declaration of intent to establish large‑scale cross‑border test beds for autonomous vehicles.6 月，18 个欧盟成员国签署联合意向声明，计划搭建大规模跨境自动驾驶车辆测试平台。The initiative covers autonomous vehicle use cases in public transport, freight and logistics.该举措覆盖公共交通、货运物流等自动驾驶应用场景。Participating countries will work on common approval principles and coordinated permitting procedures to aid large‑scale testing and future commercial deployment.参与国将制定统一审批准则、协同许可流程，助力大规模测试以及后续商业化落地。The declaration said moving from testing to real‑world deployment also requires consistent and predictable conditions for operating automated transport services across the EU single market.该声明指出，从测试阶段转向实际落地，还需要在欧盟单一市场内为自动驾驶出行服务营造稳定、可预期的运营环境。Baidu's autonomous ride‑hailing service Apollo Go and European mobility platform Freenow by Lyft began testing sixth‑generation RT6 autonomous vehicles in London on July 28.百度自动驾驶出行服务萝卜快跑与来福车旗下欧洲出行平台 FreeNow 于 7 月 28 日在伦敦开启第六代 RT6 自动驾驶车辆测试。The initial tests are being conducted with safety operators on board in the London borough of Brent, which includes both urban and suburban driving environments.首期测试在伦敦布伦特区开展，车辆配备车内安全员，该区域兼具城市与城郊道路环境。The partners plan to offer rides to the public in 2027, subject to regulatory approval.在取得监管审批后，合作双方计划 2027 年向普通民众开放乘车服务。Chinese autonomous driving company Pony.ai announced in June that it was preparing an autonomous mobility pilot in Luxembourg with European mobility platform Bolt and multinational automaker Stellantis.中国自动驾驶企业小马智行 6 月宣布，正联合欧洲出行平台博尔特以及跨国车企斯泰兰蒂斯，在卢森堡筹备自动驾驶出行试点项目。Pony.ai will provide the autonomous driving technology, Bolt will contribute its experience operating a ride‑hailing platform, and Stellantis will provide a midsize van built on a platform designed to support L4 autonomous driving, together with vehicle engineering and manufacturing expertise.小马智行输出自动驾驶技术，Bolt 提供网约车平台运营经验，斯泰兰蒂斯提供基于 L4 自动驾驶专属平台打造的中型厢式车，同时输出车辆工程与制造技术积累。In Zagreb, Croatia, Pony.ai is providing autonomous driving technology for a robotaxi service operated by mobility company Verne.在克罗地亚萨格勒布，小马智行向出行企业 Verne 运营的自动驾驶出租车服务提供自动驾驶技术。The service opened to the public in April, and passengers can book and pay for rides through Verne's app.该服务 4 月已面向公众开放，乘客可以通过 Verne 应用完成叫车与支付。Uber is also a partner in the Zagreb project.优步同样是萨格勒布项目的合作方。Verne said in April that rides would later be available through Uber's app.Verne 在 4 月表示，后续用户也可通过优步应用呼叫该自动驾驶车辆。The service had trained autonomous vehicle operators on board during the early phase of the rollout.项目落地初期，自动驾驶车辆配备经过培训的安全员随车。Ron Zheng, a senior partner at Roland Berger and head of its automotive practice in Asia, said Chinese autonomous driving companies need to adapt their algorithms using local data because European traffic rules, road signs and mixed‑traffic conditions differ markedly from those in China.罗兰贝格高级合伙人、亚太区汽车行业负责人郑赟表示，欧洲交通法规、道路标识以及混行路况和中国差异显著，中国自动驾驶企业需要利用当地数据完成算法适配。Their long‑term prospects will depend on how quickly they meet local regulatory requirements and build stable partnerships with European companies, Zheng said.郑赟称，这类企业的长期发展前景，取决于其满足当地监管要求的速度，以及能否和欧洲本土企业建立稳固合作关系。deployment /dɪˈplɔɪmənt/n. 部署；落地autonomous /ɔːˈtɒnəməs/adj. 自主的；自动驾驶的regulatory /ˈreɡjələtəri/adj.

In partnership with RENDR Festival and supported by the National Talent Academy for VFX, we are delighted to present this very special speaker series. Recorded live at RENDR 2026 in Banana Block, Belfast, we spoke with Belfast-born stand up, director, animator, and Associate Creative Director at BUCK, Jennifer Zheng. Her BAFTA-nominated short film Tough – exploring the complexities of her and her mother's cultural identities – has screened at over 80 international festivals, including Sundance and SXSW, and received 17 awards. Alongside her directorial work, Zheng has collaborated with global clients such as Netflix, Google DeepMind, Headspace, and The White Stripes.

Follow them on Insta / Facebook / TikTokJennifer ZhengJen learned to draw the normal way: by drawing the same boiled egg for a month because her dad told her 'Da Vinci started that way' – he didn't*. After eggs, she drew exclusively Hollywood A-lister headshots with the grid method: Her Angelina Jolie was spectacular. Now Jen has found a career where drawing the same thing over and over isn't considered crazy: animation.She grew up Chinese in the rolling concrete flats of Belfast, Northern Ireland where it was so white she would sometimes forget that she was Asian ... so the other girls at school would complain that their fake tan kept rubbing off, and she'd say back 'I dunno what's wrong with you girls, because mine never comes off.' The prejudices she experienced growing up taught her the importance of empathy, which is a theme that permeates her work. Her short film Tough on her and her mother's conflicting cultural identities was nominated for a BAFTA, won 17 awards, and screened at over 80 international film festivals including Sundance and SXSW. She is currently Associate Creative Director at BUCK and has worked with clients like The White Stripes, Netflix, Headspace & Google Deepmind. Notably, she's led the design of genitals & illustrations for OMGYes, co-wrote & creative directed a short for GitHub starring Phil Wang, and recently directed the animated portion of David Wilson's music video for Mabel ‘Look At My Body pt.II' – a psychedelic feminist retelling of the original sin. On the side, she is an award-winning stand-up comedian, Playgrounds In Motion London host, erotica zine publisher, and t-shirt tiedyer.*Da Vinci never repeatedly drew eggs, this seems to be a China-specific conspiracy.Website / InstagramRENDR FestivalThis is a unique event celebrating creative craft and artistry in a fully immersive two-day festival exploring the space between Creativity and Technology.

Alexandra Eala vs Qinwen Zheng — full preview, head-to-head breakdown and prediction for their blockbuster FIRST ROUND clash at the 2026 Mubadala Citi DC Open (Washington Open), July 27 – August 2, 2026, on the outdoor hard courts of the William H.G. FitzGerald Tennis Center in Washington, D.C.This is the draw everyone circled. Alex Eala arrives at a career-high World No. 28 after a breakout grass season — a WTA 125 title in Birmingham, a semifinal run in Berlin with two top-10 scalps, and a stunning Wimbledon fourth-round run that included beating defending champion Iga Swiatek. Qinwen Zheng, the Paris 2024 Olympic gold medalist and former World No. 4, enters on a wildcard, now ranked outside the top 100 as she rebuilds from July 2025 elbow surgery and a stop-start return to the tour.Zheng leads the head-to-head 1-0, winning their only previous meeting 6-1, 6-7(5), 6-3 in the 2023 Asian Games semifinal. Three years on, the roles have almost completely reversed. Who wins in Washington?

À Shanghai, le président Xi Jinping a présenté la Chine comme un acteur central de la gouvernance mondiale de l'intelligence artificielle. Il a défendu une IA ouverte, coopérative et accessible, tout en insistant sur la sécurité, la supervision humaine et le contrôle des risques. Pékin annonce aussi 5 000 places de formation pour les pays en développement et la création de la WAICO, une nouvelle organisation internationale consacrée à la coopération en IA. Pour comprendre la portée politique et technologique de ce discours, je reçois Chang-Hui Zheng, présentatrice à CGTN et chercheure.

In this episode of VarnVlog, we are joined by Brandon Lightly to discuss the complex and often misunderstood history of Maoism. We dive deep into the theoretical underpinnings of the "mass line" and "new democracy," exploring how these concepts served as an internal critique of Marxism and a departure from Soviet-style bureaucracy.Key Topics Covered:Defining the Mass Line: Is it just populism, or a sophisticated leadership feedback loop?The Historical Origins: From the Hunan Report to the Long March and the second United Front.Theoretical Innovations: Mao's 1961 critique of Joseph Stalin and the rejection of the "Great Man" theory of history.Fragmentation: Why there are so many different Maoist tendencies (MLM, MIM, Third Worldism).Praxis: The rectification movement and the relationship between urban intellectuals and the rural peasantry.Journal ArticlesDirlik, A.

A new study suggests that the way you deliver magnetic field stimulation to an Alzheimer's brain may matter just as much as the stimulation itself -- and the findings point toward a more personalized approach to treatment. In this episode, R Blank breaks down a 2025 study by Geng, Liu, Yan, and Zheng published in Brain Research, which compared intermittent versus continuous extremely low frequency magnetic field exposure in Alzheimer's disease mice. The results revealed that the optimal stimulation pattern depends on the stage of disease progression -- a finding with real implications for how we think about magnetic field therapies. R Blank also connects this to the broader body of research on ELF-MF and neurodegeneration that he and his father Doctor Martin Blank explored in their book Overpowered. In This Episode What extremely low frequency magnetic fields are and how researchers are studying them as a potential Alzheimer's therapy Why intermittent stimulation outperformed continuous stimulation in adult Alzheimer's mice -- and why the reverse was true in aged mice What theta and gamma brain wave oscillations have to do with memory and cognition Featured Study Read the full study: Intermittent ELF-MF exposure effectively ameliorates pathologic features associated with adult AD mice See all studies at shieldyourbody.com/research

The FBI won't discuss exactly how Chinese spy Xu Yanjun came to the attention of special agents. Xu was handling a GE Aviation engineer in Ohio who specialized in composite fan-blade technology. That engineer, David Zheng, had been approached by an official from Nanjing University of Aeronautics and Astronautics, on LinkedIn with a request to give a presentation. So Zheng ended up traveling from his home in Ohio to China in the summer of 2017. Zheng delivered a talk on aviation technology and met officials from China's Ministry of State Security. That meeting included Xu, who paid Zheng's travel expenses and gave him a stipend. U.S. officials found Zheng carrying thousands in cash on his way back. Over the next year, Cincinnati-based FBI Special Agent Bradley Hull was part of a team that flipped Zheng to lure Xu out of China and, ultimately, into an American prison cell. Xu was the first Chinese spy to be extradited to the United States to stand trial.

La dernière fois que je me suis fait une bonne bouffe, une question a popé dans ma tête : les aliments, ils viennent d'où ? D'où arrivent les tomates, patates, échalotes, haricots, prunes et pêches qu'on mange, est-ce que tout ça poussait miraculeusement en Europe dès la Préhistoire ? Eh bien sans surprise, c'est non ! En fait, beaucoup de fruits et de légumes ont leur propre histoire et leur propre géographie ! Alors on se lance au cœur de la marmite pour enquêter sur leurs origines, toutes passionnantes !Bonne écoute !

Herzlich willkommen zu Ihrem morgendlichen Newsletter! Immer noch steht der Vorwurf der USA im Raum, dass der Iran die Produktion von Atomwaffen anstrebe. Allerdings hat das Land Uran inzwischen nahe an die Waffentauglichkeit angereichert. Dennoch sagt Trump einen geplanten Angriff ab, den ein sehr „akzeptabler Deal“ für die USA sei in Verhandlung. Die militärische Option bleibe dennoch bestehen. Gestern spätabends Ortszeit traf Putin in China ein. Der kleine aber feine Unterschied zum abgereisten US-Kollegen: Trump wurde bei seiner Landung von Chinas Vizepräsident Han Zheng empfangen – Putin jedoch von jemandem, der einen Rang unter Zheng steht. Wie werden die Gespräche über die Erdgas-Pipeline „Power of Siberia 2“ von Russland über die Mongolei nach China sein? Oder wird es weitere Abmachungen zur Ausbildung russischer Soldaten in China geben?

In this episode, we discuss: Bridging the Genetic Gap: Looking critically at how horticultural research transfers between high-THC cultivars and industrial hemp. The 13-Hour Photoperiod: Breaking the traditional 12/12 cycle to achieve a 39%–50% yield increase and a 9% THC boost. Linear Light Scaling: The direct relationship between light intensity and flower yield scaling all the way up to 1,800 micromoles under ambient CO2. The UV Reality Check: Why modern high-THC genetics actually showed a decrease in final cannabinoid and terpene content under supplemental UVA and UVB. Light Response Curves: Why relying on a single leaf measurement to guide your facility's light saturation point is fundamentally flawed. The Veg-to-Flower Transition: Practical SOPs for adjusting PPFD and DLI safely without shocking your canopy. Controlled Deficit Irrigation: How a single, targeted late-flower drought stress event triggers a 12%–13% spike in final THC and CBD content. The 60 PPM Phosphorus Rule: Looking at the established replication data proving that excess phosphorus wastes money, reduces yield efficiency, and impacts the environment.

Episode 224: Community Health Workers Dr. Arreaza: Today we will discuss a topic that, frankly, every single person listening, whether you're a medical student, a resident, a nurse, a family doctor, or any primary care provider, needs to really understand. We're talking about community health workers (CHWs). We are joined by our stellar medical student; you may be familiar with her voice from previous episodes about insomnia. Moira, welcome, please introduce yourself.  Moira: I want to be upfront about why Community Health Workers matter to you specifically. If you've ever felt frustrated that your patient with uncontrolled diabetes keeps missing appointments because they can't get a ride, or that your heart failure patient was readmitted because nobody checked whether they could afford their medications, then you already understand the problem that CHWs are designed to solve. Dr. Arreaza: We're going to give you the definition of a CHW, the evidence behind their effectiveness, how they fit into your care team, the return on investment, and practical steps for integrating them into your practice. We have pulled information from a lot of peer-reviewed sources, and we want to share them with you. So, Moira, let's start with the basics. What exactly is a community health worker? Moira: Great question, and it's one that even literature struggles with, because there are so many titles for this role. Community Health Worker is an umbrella term that encompasses more than 20 different titles including outreach workers, promotores or promotoras de salud, community health representatives, lay health workers, peer educators, patient navigators, and many more. The American Public Health Association defines CHWs as frontline public health workers who are trusted members of or have an unusually close understanding of the communities they serve. Arreaza: And that trust is so important in health care. CHWs are not physicians. They are not nurses. They do not diagnose or prescribe. But they are like a bridge connecting the medical environment, social services, and the community to reduce gaps in healthcare delivery.  Moira: Exactly. In the United States, the role was formally recognized in the 2010 Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act, which includes several sections highlighting the key roles CHWs play in achieving important goals of healthcare. ________________ References:  Aguerrebere, M., Rodríguez-Cuevas, F.

This week on Sinica, in a special episode recorded as a live joint webcast with NYRB/Poets and Equator Magazine, I sit down with Eleanor Goodman — poet, scholar, research associate at Harvard's Fairbank Center, and one of the most accomplished translators working between Chinese and English — to talk about the extraordinary Sichuan-born poet Zheng Xiaoqiong (郑小琼).Born in 1980 in a mountain village, trained as a nurse, Zheng joined the great tide of internal migration in her early 20s, ending up on the assembly line of a hardware factory in Dongguan in the Pearl River Delta. She picked up a pen after a workplace injury — part of her finger taken off by a lathe — and what came out across poems, essays, and reportage has made her one of the most singular voices in contemporary Chinese literature. Her trajectory from the assembly line to the editorial desk of an official literary magazine is, as far as I know, essentially without parallel.Eleanor has been translating Zheng since around 2013, and the partnership they've built has given Anglophone readers access to a body of work that defies easy categorization — at once intimate and historical, ethnographic and lyric, tender and unsparing. We talk about how they met, about Zheng's resistance to the "migrant worker poet" label, about the bodily feminism that runs through her verse, about her unmoralizing portraits of sex workers, about lost youth and the way the body keeps the ledger of factory time. Eleanor reads Zheng's poem "Woman Worker: Youth Pinned to a Workstation" (女工: 被固定在卡桌上的青春) in both Chinese and her English translation — and it is, every time, devastating.Huge thanks to Abigail Dunn at NYRB Poets and Ratik Asokan at Equator for organizing this conversation and for inviting me to host it, to Eleanor for her generosity and her brilliance, and most of all to Zheng Xiaoqiong, whose voice — even when she cannot be with us in person — comes through with absolute clarity.Eleanor's translation of Zheng Xiaoqiong's In the Roar of the Machine is available from NYRB Poets.

In recent decades, self-proclaimed “independent bookstores” have arisen across China. In the West, such retailers represent an alternative to corporations and chains. In China, by contrast, they differentiate themselves from not only the state-owned Xinhua Bookstore but also other privately owned shops through an emphasis on intellectual independence and the free exchange of ideas. Cultural Mavericks: The Business and Politics of Independent Bookselling in China (Columbia UP, 2026) by Dr. Zheng Liu takes readers inside the world of independent bookselling in China, showing how a wide range of figures navigate the challenges of book retailing in the digital age amid rapidly shifting social, political, and economic dynamics. Drawing on more than a decade of immersive research—including interviews, observations, and extensive documentary analysis—Dr. Liu unveils how these bookstores carve out a unique identity and market position. She develops the concept of “culturally adapted strategy” to explain how independent bookstores—as both dedicated cultural institutions and resilient business enterprises—balance economic imperatives with a deep commitment to intellectual autonomy. Dr. Liu challenges the tendency to understand nonstate cultural institutions in China in terms of resistance, arguing that independent bookstores engage with politics as a strategic means of differentiation from the competition. Richly detailed and compellingly written, Cultural Mavericks sheds new light on the interplay among culture, commerce, and politics in China, offering timely insights into the evolving dynamics of China's book industry and wider cultural economy. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars.
