Confirms the safety, reliability, and durability of the P320 based M18

NEWINGTON, N.H., Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — SIG SAUER applauds the USAF and the Global Strike Command in their diligence and expediency in the safety inspection related to the investigation into the tragic incident at F.E. Warren Air Force Base.

We remain in direct contact with the Air Force Global Strike Command (AFGSC) leadership during this process and will continue to work with them as they return the M18 to service and provide Airmen with safe, reliable, and effective weapon systems.

As affirmed by the AFGSC, the M18 was specifically designed and rigorously tested to meet stringent requirements unique to the military. The AFGSC command-wide inspection showed that no weapon discharges were attributed to a malfunction and the M18 can safely and reliably accomplish their missions across the globe.

We value this further confirmation of the safety, reliability, and durability of the P320-based M18 and look forward to continuing our partnership with the USAF. The U.S. military selected the M18 and M17 pistols for their safety and extreme reliability. The AFGSC’s comprehensive M18 investigation and inspection validates the platform’s military suitability. SIG SAUER is hopeful the USAF’s thorough inspection and confirmation will satisfy the concerns of ranges, training facilities and organizations who temporarily suspended the use of P320 variants.

The SIG SAUER P320 based M17 and M18 pistols are in service with all branches of the U.S. military and SIG SAUER is extremely proud to support the mission to protect the nation and defend freedom around the world.

From Aug 27 through Sep 4, all Bestqool Products will be available at unbeatable prices.

NEW YORK, Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — After long hours of daily work, the body needs more than rest — it requires a sustainable, gentle, and easy-to-maintain recovery method. Bestqool, a health and wellness technology brand for light-based recovery, is celebrating this year’s Labor Day with an important message: Honor your labor by protecting the body that does the work.

For a limited time, Bestqool is offering 12% off all products from August 27th to September 4th, giving workers the opportunity to bring red light therapy home and make recovery a part of their daily routine.

The Health Challenges Facing Workers — A Lopsided House

Today’s labor force, whether it’s in an office or on a construction site, is exposed to constant and multiple muscle strains. From office cubicles to construction sites, today’s workers grapple with layers of stress. People working at desks all day commonly have stiff necks and shoulders, lower back pain, and strained eyes from prolonged sitting and screen time. Repeated movements and uncomfortable postures affect mainly the back, knees, wrists, and shoulders areas and put workers at risk of muscle and joint wear and tear over time.

Mental fatigue is equally widespread. High levels of mental strain have left office workers battling with headaches, lack of concentration, and disturbed sleep. Physically demanding jobs in loud, stressful conditions often drain physical and mental energy and reduce the ability to recover. These issues don’t just disappear with a mini vacation or work pause; instead, they mount up, turning into chronic issues that steadily damage health and quality of life.

The Shortcomings of Conventional Treatments

For decades workers rely on various traditional pain relieving drugs and rehabilitation methods. They are effective, but each has its drawbacks.

• Medications: Pain killers and anti-inflammatories can ease symptoms temporarily, but their long term usage carries risk for the digestive system, kidneys and cardiovascular health.
• Physical therapy: Rehabilitation methods are effective but challenging as these require fixed appointments and travel during work hours, and financial commitment.
• Surgery/Interventional Procedures: While sometimes necessary and effective, these pose a higher risk and longer periods of recovery that many workers cannot afford.
• Heat/Cold therapy or Passive Rest: Treats only superficial symptoms but rarely fixes stiffness, fatigue, or deep tissue issues.

The Advantages of Light-Based Therapy (Photobiomodulation)

Red and near-infrared light therapy, commonly referred to as “red light therapy” (RLT), has been proven as a safe, effective, and sustainable pathway to recovery for today’s workforce^[1][2][3]. In contrast to some other solutions that provide only temporary masking of symptoms, RLT works at the cellular level – supporting the body’s recovery ability.^[4]

This form of therapy relies on specific wavelengths of light, specifically red (660 nm) and near-infrared (850 nm). They can pass through the skin and subcutaneous tissues, promoting circulation, improving the delivery of oxygen to the tissues, and facilitating energy production in the mitochondria of the cells^[4]. By promoting better cellular function, RLT helps the body heal itself effectively.

For an office professional managing tension in the neck and shoulders, or a frontline worker hampered with aching knees and painful back, RLT provides a soft but mighty approach to building resilience and quality of life over time. As compared to traditional treatments, light-based therapies have three distinct advantages:

1. Budget saving: No periodic expensive treatments needed. Short daily sessions at home can help cut longer-term costs.
2. Fewer side effects: Since light treatment doesn’t use systemic drugs, it avoids the “rob Peter to pay Paul” problem of alleviating one issue while causing another.
3. Convenience and Adherence: Home or office light therapy devices can be integrated into daily schedules, allowing caregivers, shift workers, and professionals with demanding schedules to experience realistic recovery on a regular basis. Short, regular sessions can be completed in minutes and — when maintained over time — provide gentle, cumulative recovery after work.

Bestqool Products Recommendations For Workers

Bestqool devices are designed by keeping the needs of working people in mind — safe for frequent use, easy to operate, and beneficial for cumulative benefits. Three leading models will be highlighted in this year’s Labor Day event.

BQ60 — Compact, Portable Dual-Wavelength Device

Combines 660nm red light (skin health, collagen, superficial recovery) with 850nm near-infrared light (deep tissue, joints and muscle recovery).

• Small and lightweight, it comes with a foldable stand, making it convenient.
• Ideal for local treatments such as neck, joints and shoulders after daily wear and tear.

Key Benefit: Portable and affordable without sacrificing medical-grade irradiance.

Pro100 — Mid-Size, Four-Wavelength Device

Delivers a higher irradiance output and larger treatment area compared with the BQ60.

• Combines four-wavelength for a broader range of benefits such as anti-aging, skin rejuvenation, muscle performance and deeper tissues recovery.
• Designed for Modular Use: Can be connected with additional panels for expanded coverage.

Key Benefit: Efficient for workers who desire both beauty/wellness benefits (skin, hair, mood) and deeper musculoskeletal recovery

Pro300 — Full-Surface, Four-Wavelength Device

Larger surface area for comprehensive body treatment; 2 units can be combined together for full body treatment.

• It emits stronger power density meaning shorter therapy sessions are needed to achieve therapeutic effect.
• Includes optional splicing hardware for modular expansion and ceiling, or stand mounting options for workplace or gym.

Key benefit: Superior efficiency and coverage – perfect for physically demanding workers, athletes, or anyone managing chronic conditions.

A Labor Day Commitment to Worker Wellness 

Labor Day should not be just a holiday; it is a reminder that the working class is the backbone of our society. While workers strive for a better life, they must also protect the body that makes the life possible. Bestqool’s Labor Day sale isn’t just about a discount — it’s a tangible opportunity to add recovery into the regular routine.

Promotion Period: August 27th – September 4^th
Deal: 12% discount on all products of Bestqool
Available on both Bestqool official website and Amazon store

Schedule Caring for Yourself

For the millions of workers hustling their bodies for a chance at a better life, recovery should not be a luxury. Bestqool offers affordable, science-based tools to help people take care of themselves every day, building resilience not only for work, but for the moments that matter beyond it.

Bestqool hopes its easy-to-use, sustainable light-therapy devices will help make “recovery” an achievable daily habit. Prioritize self-care as part of your routine; small, regular investments in recovery compound into better work performance and higher quality of life.

Net Profit Swings to Positive as Targeted User Base Unlocks Growth

Fangzhou posted revenue of RMB 1.494 billion for the six months ended June 30, up 12.9% from a year earlier.

– Daesang K-Food Week provided 7,000 visitors with K-Food platters and premiere invitations

SEOUL, South Korea, Aug. 27, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Daesang Group announced on the 27th that the 5th DAESANG E.T.F.F. (Eat & Travel Film Festival), a global university student smartphone film festival, concluded successfully in Bali, Indonesia with enthusiastic participation from future global talents.

Now in its fifth year, DAESANG E.T.F.F. is a global cultural exchange program rooted in Daesang Group’s core value of Respect. It brings together students from diverse national and cultural backgrounds to travel, collaborate, and create short films on the theme of Food. This year, the festival offered an evolved brand experience, allowing global tourists in Bali to enjoy a screening while tasting Daesang Group’s popular K-Food items such as tteokbokki, fried chicken, gimbap, and dumplings.

The festival expanded its scope to a global level, selecting 48 students from 17 countries, including Korea, Indonesia, Vietnam, Iran, Cambodia, India, the United States, and Russia, through a highly competitive competition. Working in eight teams of six, the students collaborated on scriptwriting, filming, editing, and promotion of their five-minute films, all created using smartphones, from August 11 to 25.

The completed works, showcasing collaboration and creativity, were unveiled on the 24th at a screening held at Atlas Super Club, Asia’s largest club, before a global audience. Winners were selected by a panel of judges, including Director Lee Do-yoon, known for the Netflix series Trauma Center, and Professor Park Ji-hoon of Seoul Institute of the Arts, with audience members also voting for their favorites.

This year’s festival also introduced Daesang K-Food Week in the week leading up to the awards ceremony, further building excitement. In collaboration with eight popular local restaurants in Bali, Daesang offered visitors a Daesang K-Food Platter featuring dishes such as tteokbokki, gim bugak, kimchi jeon, and kimchi spread, alongside invitations to the film screening. Additional OOH advertisements at Bali’s Kuta Beach and major shopping malls amplified awareness and anticipation.

On the day of the premiere, the venue was packed with global tourists who enjoyed a wide range of K-Food from Daesang’s global brand O’Food, including tteokbokki, japchae, gimbap, and chicken, while watching the films. The first 300 attendees also received special K-Food packages designed for convenient consumption while traveling. One tourist remarked, “It was a unique experience to watch films created by students from around the world. Enjoying movies and food together felt like a true festival, and I was especially impressed by the harmony of flavors in the gimbap.”

Awards were presented in five categories: Grand Prize, Best Film, Best Promotion, Best Actor, and Best Participation. The Grand Prize went to Team Balicious (led by Hyunmin Kim and five others) for their film Coconut Allergy Club, earning a prize of KRW 10 million. Director Lee Do-yoon praised the work, stating, “It was a refreshing attempt that humorously broke down fears and prejudices through the theme of allergies. The sophisticated editing and natural performances resulted in a highly accomplished piece.” Team leader Hyunmin Kim (Chung-Ang University) commented, “We wanted to satirize a world where baseless hatred and prejudice spread like entertainment, using food and allergies as our motif.”

The award-winning films and behind-the-scenes videos are now available on the official DAESANG Eat & Travel Film Festival YouTube channel.

Choi Sung-soo, CEO of Daesang Holdings, stated, “This year’s festival evolved from being a cultural exchange program for students, rooted in the value of Respect, into a true global festival where people of diverse nationalities could enjoy both food and culture together. Through DAESANG E.T.F.F., we aim to provide even more students with the opportunity to travel the world with Daesang and grow into global leaders.”

Since entering the global market in 1973 with Korea’s first overseas plant export to Indonesia, Daesang Group has built a robust network in the food and ingredient industries, spanning Vietnam, Japan, China, the Philippines, Thailand, Myanmar, the U.S., Europe, Australia, and beyond.
