Honda Newly Launches “Discover Honda” Content Curation Media Platform JCN Newswire

Honda Newly Launches “Discover Honda” Content Curation Media Platform

- Media platform serves as a “marketplace” where people can encounter the many facets of Honda, including the thoughts of development engineers, technologies, designs and corporate activities -TOKYO, Dec 26, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Honda Motor Co., Ltd. today launched a content curation media platform, Discover Honda, on its corporate information website(1). Discover Honda is a media platform that holistically curates and clearly communicates a wide range of Honda initiatives, including Honda products, technologies, designs, and the thoughts of Honda associates who create them, as well as various corporate activities including the environment, safety and corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives.Image of Discover Honda siteDiscover Honda URL:https://global.honda/jp/discover/ (Japanese) https://global.honda/en/discover/ (English)Key features of Discover HondaDiscover Honda is a newly created media platform that curates (gathers) and posts articles from multiple Honda owned media(2) platforms that currently exist within the Honda corporate information website. This will enable users to access articles that were previously scattered across various owned media in one place and in a timely manner. In addition, Discover Honda will share feature articles which will compile multiple articles related to certain selected themes. For example, by selecting a single product as a theme, the feature article will enable readers to explore a series of articles written about the product from different aspects, such as technologies, designs and the thoughts of Honda associates who were involved in the development of the product. Feature articles on Discover Honda are designed to enable the readers to gain a deeper and more multifaceted understanding of the particular themes.At its launch, Discover Honda is featuring two special articles: one on the all-new Prelude, which went on sale in Japan in September of this year, and the other on electric motorcycles. New feature articles are scheduled to be added on monthly basis.Concept of Discover HondaThe concept behind Discover Honda is creating a “marché” (marketplace) for Honda content. Just like marché or farmers' market brings together a wide variety of desirable items ranging from fresh foods to home goods and handmade items, Discover Honda was created with an image of a place where users can encounter articles on diverse themes and perspectives related to Honda.In addition to its motorcycle, automobile, power products and aviation businesses, Honda is engaging in a wide range of initiatives as a comprehensive mobility company, including the development of cutting-edge space and robotics technologies, environment and safety initiatives, taking on challenges in motorsports, and corporate social responsibility (CSR) initiatives. By featuring articles that introduce such a wide range of activities, Discover Honda will strive to become a media platform where users can discover a variety of attractive facets of Honda — just like people finding a variety of attractive items at a marketplace. This new content curation media platform was named “Discover Honda” based on the desire of Honda for more people to visit this media site, explore the diverse activities Honda is involved in, and discover new facets of Honda. With participation of designers from the Honda Design team, the Discover Honda site was designed with a main color of orange that evokes a vibrant image, freshness, and positive energy of the marketplace. The Discover Honda logo features multiple cubes within the initial letter D, representing diverse themes users can encounter through this platform, and one of the cubes incorporates the Honda Red. Why Honda created Discover HondaSince 2020, as a part of its corporate information website, Honda has been operating “Honda Stories,” as one of the owned media platforms that communicates the current initiatives and future vision of Honda. It introduces Honda initiatives from the past, present and future, including the underlying thoughts and passions of each initiative, through interviews with Honda associates, executives and other stakeholders.In addition to Honda Stories, Honda has been communicating a wide range of information through multiple owned media platforms:“Honda Technology” introduces Honda technologies with more technical insights.“Honda Design” introduces initiatives related to design works“Motorsports” and “HRC” introduce various Honda initiatives in motorsports“Honda Sports Challenge” introduces various Honda corporate sports activities.The use of multiple owned media platforms has enabled Honda to present a single theme from multiple perspectives. However, having multiple owned media platforms created a challenge, making it difficult for users to find related articles on the same theme all at once. To address this challenge, Honda launched Discover Honda, a new content curation media platform that enables users to find related articles from multiple Honda owned media while leveraging the unique expertise of each medium.Initially, Discover Honda will primarily curate content from Honda Stories, Honda Technology, Honda Design, Motorsports, HRC, and Honda Sports Challenge. Moving forward, Honda is planning to expand the range of owned media included in the curation.(1) Honda corporate information website URL: https://global.honda/jp/ (Japanese), https://global.honda/en/(English)(2) Media produced and operated by Honda Copyright 2025 JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.

Mazda Selected for A List in CDP Water Security for the First Time JCN Newswire

Mazda Selected for A List in CDP Water Security for the First Time

HIROSHIMA, Japan, Dec 26, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Mazda Motor Corporation (Mazda) has been selected for the first time as an "A List" company in the "Water Security" category by CDP, an international non-profit organization in the environmental field. This recognition reflects the strong evaluation of Mazda Group’s initiatives and disclosures related to water security.CDP is an independent non-profit organization which operates a global environmental disclosure system. Numerous companies, financial institutions, and municipalities utilize CDP's system to manage their environmental impact. For the 2025 assessment, over 24,800 companies worldwide responded to CDP's disclosure requests, prompted by over 640 financial institutions representing more than $127 trillion in assets.In automobile manufacturing, water is indispensable for applications such as cooling (e.g., cooling furnaces in casting processes), dilution (e.g., diluting concentrated cutting fluids or cleaning solutions in machining processes), and washing (e.g., cleaning vehicle bodies in painting processes). Therefore, water security initiatives are necessary to address future risks such as water scarcity and rising water prices.Mazda has pursued the following principles: "Fully utilize water without any waste as a valuable resource that is a natural blessing" and "Circulate water as a valuable resource that is a natural blessing by treating used water so that it is the same quality as before it was used and returning it to nature." The Company aims to achieve water resource regeneration and circulation initiatives at its domestic model plant* by 2030 and across its global production processes by 2050.To achieve these goals, Mazda has set a target to reduce the total volume of water intake across the entire group in Japan by 38% in fiscal year 2030, compared to fiscal year 2013, and has been steadfastly taking actions aimed at reducing annual water intake by 2%, through expanding the use of rainwater and recycled water. As a result, a 37% reduction was achieved in fiscal year 2024 compared to fiscal year 2013. These efforts, among others, are believed to have contributed to the A List rating this time.Mazda will continue striving to conserve water resources, a natural blessing, and contribute to protecting the global environment and building a prosperous society while seeking harmony with nature.Water Resource Conservation Initiatives: www.mazda.com/en/sustainability/environment/resource-circulation/#head07Signing/Participation in the Initiative and External Recognition: www.mazda.com/en/sustainability/initiatives-recognition/*The plant that implements new initiatives ahead of others.

Fujitsu Develops Fujitsu Kozuchi Physical AI 1.0 for Seamless Integration of Physical and Agentic AI JCN Newswire

Fujitsu Develops Fujitsu Kozuchi Physical AI 1.0 for Seamless Integration of Physical and Agentic AI

KAWASAKI, Japan, Dec 26, 2025 - (JCN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - Fujitsu today announced the development of Fujitsu Kozuchi Physical AI 1.0, a new technology designed to seamlessly integrate physical and agentic AI. The technology, which marks the first achievement of Fujitsu's collaboration with NVIDIA, announced on October 3, 2025, integrates NVIDIA’s software stack with Fujitsu's proprietary technologies. As core functions offered through the new technology, Fujitsu has developed a multi-AI agent framework that enables secure automation of highly confidential business workflows and a set of specialized AI agents based on its large language model (LLM) Takane, to support the automation of procurement operations in purchasing departments.Moving forward, Fujitsu will continue its collaboration with NVIDIA to evolve the newly developed technology for sovereign domains. By the end of its fiscal year 2025, Fujitsu plans to transform the technology into an agentic AI foundation where AI autonomously learns and evolves within customer environments. The technology will then be expanded into the physical AI domain, enabling AI agents to directly interact with the real world through physical robots. Fujitsu envisions a society where AI agents and robots seamlessly collaborate to perform complex tasks based on a deep understanding of real-world operations.Fujitsu remains committed to advancing research and development to address diverse customer needs and solve challenges in specialized business areas, thereby unlocking new possibilities for enterprise utilization of agentic and physical AI.Addressing the limitations of agentic AIAgentic AI has seen remarkable advancements, yet its adoption by enterprises remains limited, particularly in complex, inter-departmental/inter-company workflows. Achieving advanced automation requires specialized AI agents tailored to specific industries and enterprises, capable of securely processing confidential information and ensuring workflow maintainability. Similar challenges exist in the realm of physical AI, where AI agents interact with the real world via robots, necessitating secure information sharing and processing in physical environments combined with a robust understanding of on-site operations.Fujitsu Kozuchi Physical AI 1.0 was developed to address these challenges. It integrates its technologies with NVIDIA NIM microservices (NIM), which enhance maintainability by providing version control and update functionalities. Fujitsu is now offering trial environments for the two core functions within the new technology.1. Multi-AI agent framework for secure automation of highly confidential business workflows- Multi-AI agent framework provides a visual UI for building business workflows- Leveraging Fujitsu Composite AI [1], the framework automatically combines NIM-compatible core technologies from the Fujitsu Kozuchi AI platform with specialized Takane agents - Enables the rapid construction of highly maintainable business workflows using multiple AI agents, and ensuring secure workflows through Fujitsu secure inter-agent gateway(2)2. Specialized AI agents to support automation and efficiency in enterprise procurement operations- Three new specialized Fujitsu Kozuchi AI agents based on Fujitsu’s Takane LLM enable the automation of procurement workflows in enterprise purchasing departments.- Multiple agents support procurement regulation analysis, and compliance checking:Document comprehension agent: accurately interprets complex documents and converts them to structured dataProcurement regulation analysis agent: analyzes regulations to generate compliance check promptsCompliance checking agent: automated compliance verification using structured document data and prompts, with verified requests for quotations securely sent to external suppliers via Fujitsu secure inter-agent gatewayA proof-of-concept within Fujitsu's purchasing department demonstrated these agents reduced order confirmation workload by approximately 50%; NIM compatibility is also expected to boost inference speed by 50%, significantly accelerating hundreds of daily internal regulation compliance checks.(1) Fujitsu Composite AI:A technology that comprehends abstract business challenges through chat-based dialogue and automatically searches for and proposes optimal AI model-based solutions from many possibilities. It promotes the application of AI to a wide variety of businesses, including use cases that were previously impossible with single AI models.(2) Fujitsu secure inter-agent gateway: A technology that seamlessly and securely connects AI agents developed by different vendors while protecting corporate confidential and private information, providing secure AI agent collaboration.

Kennedy Center平安夜爵士音乐会在特朗普更名后取消

(SeaPRwire) - 在常年主办者决定抗议唐纳德·特朗普总统近期对该艺术中心名称的更改后,肯尼迪中心于周三取消了其年度爵士音乐会。 近二十年来一直主持该音乐会的爵士鼓手兼颤音琴演奏家查克·雷德表示,他是在特朗普宣布将其名字加到这个为纪念遇刺总统约翰·F·肯尼迪而设立的中心后做出这一决定的。截至上周五,建筑外立面的名称已改为“唐纳德·J·特朗普与约翰·F·肯尼迪表演艺术纪念中心”,这一决定由特朗普亲手挑选的董事会做出,而他现在亲自担任该董事会主席。 “当我在肯尼迪中心网站上看到名称变更,几小时后又看到建筑上的新名字时,我选择取消我们的音乐会,”雷德在圣诞节前夕通过电子邮件对美联社表示。 “加入我们一年一度的平安夜爵士即兴演奏会,享受一个充满节日欢乐的音乐之夜,”该中心网站上对往常活动的列表如此描述,但到平安夜时,列表旁已标注“已取消”。 此次取消是自特朗普今年早些时候自我任命为主席以来,遭遇同样命运的一系列活动中的最新一例。已有15场活动由表演者自行取消,包括女演员伊萨·雷和获奖作曲家林-曼努尔·米兰达的活动。 肯尼迪中心于1964年,即肯尼迪于1963年11月遇刺后,被国会指定为纪念肯尼迪的“活纪念馆”。此次更名以及特朗普对艺术中心的全面改革遭到了立法者和专家的批评,他们认为更名行为违反了国会法律,该法律禁止董事会将该中心变为纪念任何其他人的纪念馆。 俄亥俄州民主党众议员乔伊斯·比蒂本周早些时候就此举起诉了特朗普,称此次更名是对法律的“公然违反”,并且对肯尼迪中心这一机构来说是“完全的耻辱”。 “只有国会有权为肯尼迪中心更名,”比蒂众议员在一份关于该诉讼的声明中表示。“绝不能允许特朗普总统及其亲信践踏联邦法律、绕过国会来满足他的自我。” 特朗普本人则表示,他对董事会批准更名的决定感到“惊讶”和“荣幸”,尽管他于今年早些时候组建了该董事会成员,并且其亲密顾问理查德·格雷内尔成为了董事会主席。 作为著名民主党人的肯尼迪家族也对此举表示反对,包括前总统的侄孙乔·肯尼迪三世。 “(肯尼迪中心)不能被更名,就像没人能更名林肯纪念堂一样,无论任何人说什么,”他在回应新闻秘书卡罗琳·莱维特宣布更名决定时如此表示。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。

派对上最值得问的问题 Latest News

派对上最值得问的问题

(SeaPRwire) - 一个错误的问题可能会破坏家庭或朋友聚会的整体氛围。有些问题无聊、冒犯他人或是过于模糊;另一些则意在挑衅——或者提问者根本不关心答案。 而有些问题则能大获成功,点亮整个场合,让在场的每个人都凝聚在一起。 “一个好问题能打开整个房间的话匣子,”《》的作者Priya Parker说。“它为连接开辟了一条道路,创造了对话的版图,让你们可以一起走向任何方向。一个美妙的问题是对话的基本组成部分。” 她补充道,最好的问题是那些能引出故事而非观点、并鼓励具体回答的问题。它们还能激发活力,让人们想要参与,并且与房间里的每个人都相关。“一个好问题是通俗易懂的,无论你是7岁还是77岁,”Parker说。“它不会让人感觉像作业或苦差事,小组里的每个人都很兴奋地回答——而且也真的很想听听其他人的答案。” 我们问了Parker,下次社交聚会时最该问的问题是什么。 排名第一的问题 Parker将自己收藏的最爱的开场白视为能将闲聊转化为真实对话的“神奇问题”。其中一个特别适合年终朋友和家庭聚会的问题是:“哪三首歌会构成你今年的原声带,为什么?” 她喜欢这个问题的部分原因在于它的跨代吸引力。想象一下每个人的选择能引发的对话:你的祖父可能想知道Tate McRae是谁,而你6岁的侄女从未听说过Madonna。“一个真正的好问题有持久的影响力,”Parker说。歌曲深受个人和社会因素的影响,因此这个问题会“引出很多其他对话”。 也许你的姐姐正处于一个苦乐参半的时期,最能产生共鸣的是Brandi Carlile的一首歌;而你的表妹正处于她的Taylor Swift恋爱时代;你坚韧的妈妈则反复播放《I Will Survive》。你会从同伴身上学到很多,尤其是如果你问一些深思熟虑的后续问题:你这种感觉有多久了?我们能做些什么来支持你?为什么特别喜欢那位艺术家?你看过他们的现场演出吗?他们还有什么歌你推荐?另外,这也给了你一个反思自己一年的内在机会。 额外的好处是:你最终会扩展你的音乐收藏。“一位印度祖父可能会分享Nusrat Fateh Ali Khan的歌,然后大家会问:‘谁?什么歌?’”Parker说。“另一个人分享Glenn Miller,然后有人分享Scarlet Pleasure,还有人分享Toni Braxton。” 幸运的是,音乐很容易分享。你们在一起的时候,可以在Spotify上播放每个人的歌,甚至可以创建一个包含整个小组选择的播放列表,让每个人都能听。“这为你们在一起的剩余时间创造了一个音乐原声带,”Parker说。“这是一个富有创造性的问题,有趣、易懂,并且有丰富的后续影响。” 非音乐类的替代问题 如果你们不是特别喜欢音乐的人,你们的小组可能会喜欢Parker最喜欢的问题的这个小变体:“如果你的一年是一本书,它的标题和副标题会是什么?” “标题要求简洁,”她说。“它能传达你一年的氛围,而不用给出完整的报告。”当然,通过问正确的后续问题,你可以更深入地探讨。 当Parker在聚会上问这个问题时,她特别喜欢人们的副标题,这些副标题常常让人捧腹大笑。例如,一本名为《My Year As a Mother》的书可能会有这样的副标题:《Poop, pee, and the best year of my life》。或者是这样的:《A how-to guide to staying sane》。 “他们只是有点轻率,但这很有趣,”她说。 如果甜点后还有时间... 当你想一些聚会中每个人都能开心回答的问题时,要有创意。Parker一直在教她的孩子们好问题的力量,最近她女儿在家庭聚会上问了这个(可能有深意的)问题:“你做过的最调皮但值得的事情是什么?” “大人们知道房间里有孩子,但还是回答了,我们听到了很多故事,”她说。然后她儿子问了一个不同的问题:“你15岁前做过的最刻薄的事情是什么?” “我77岁的父亲、我的女儿、儿子和我花了整个午餐时间回答问题、讲故事,有点像互相坦白,”Parker说。“一个真正的好问题能让你了解一个人的复杂性。”每个人回家时都感觉更亲密了——更不用说还很开心和有启发。 想知道在棘手的社交场合该说什么吗?发邮件 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。

安妮·李的证言是一部前所未见的电影

(SeaPRwire) - 如今在电影制作中,野心和胆识能占多大分量?由莫娜·法斯特沃尔德(Mona Fastvold)执导的《安·李的遗嘱》(The Testament of Ann Lee),无论好坏,都是一部你前所未见的电影。一部关于18世纪创立的宗教教派创始人的音乐剧——这位女性信奉乌托邦社会,却又主张获得上帝恩典的唯一途径是践行独身?如果你在寻找能吸引大批观众的噱头,那这部不是。但在这个每天都有人向我们投喂预先消化好的信息、仿佛我们连一丝自己的想象力都无法信任的世界里,《安·李的遗嘱》促使我们动用仅存的脑细胞。它或许不过是一部精心打造的猎奇之作,但也具备一个众多大预算大片所缺乏的特质:它从不乏味。 阿曼达·塞弗里德(Amanda Seyfried)饰演李,影片从开头讲起——故事由影片中的次要角色之一、玛丽·帕丁顿(Mary Partington)以童话书的风格旁白讲述,内容包括她1736年出生于英国曼彻斯特的细节,以及她与崇拜她的哥哥威廉一起长大的童年。李是一个尽职、温顺且敬神的孩子,她在织布机前辛勤劳作,用手帕遮住脸以防止吸入散落的纤维。但她不喜欢母亲不断生孩子的样子——很难数清围坐在家里粗糙木桌旁的孩子数量,但可能超过一打——而且她明智地将这一特殊困境与父母的夫妻活动联系起来,在家庭拥挤的住所里,这些活动难以隐藏。后来,她自己也结婚了,虽然起初她对性生活并不反感,但她的铁匠丈夫亚伯拉罕(克里斯托弗·阿波特饰演,Christopher Abbott’s Abraham)在工作中发现了一本淫秽书籍——或者他是这么说的——并引诱她尝试一些她感到不适的怪异行为。想必这促成了她后来认为独身是正确道路的观点。 但李的虔诚超越了心理性问题。她加入了一群“震颤贵格会信徒”(Shaking Quakers),这些信徒的礼拜活动包括吟唱、哀号和狂喜的即兴舞步。她的信仰如此炽热且富有魅力,以至于不久之后,她就有了自己的追随者群体,这些人后来被称为震颤派(Shakers)。他们会称她为“母亲”;她的哥哥威廉(刘易斯·普尔曼饰演,Lewis Pullman)将成为她的得力助手。但在这一切发生之前,李怀孕并失去了四个孩子,一段详细描述这段时期的蒙太奇既直白又有效。有一次,我们在一个谨慎而尊重的长镜头中看到,李的亚伯拉罕温柔地试图从李的怀里抱走死去的婴儿;她似乎身体上无法放手。 李对宗教应有的样子的想法更加坚定,她的追随者也越来越多。她面临迫害和巫术指控;她多次被投入监狱。1774年,她和她忠诚的同伴登上一艘被判死刑的船只前往北美,在纽约州北部定居。他们的希望是建立一个男女平等、人人努力工作并尽其所能、财富共享的社会。再次强调,性是禁忌。很容易理解为什么人们觉得震颤派怪异且狂热,随之而来的是更多的迫害,其中一些甚至是致命的。 法斯特沃尔德优雅地推进这个有时残酷的故事,偶尔轻柔地插入一段音乐。这些歌曲由丹尼尔·布朗伯格(Daniel Blumberg)创作,灵感来自震颤派赞美诗,主题是奉献、辛勤工作和形而上的渴望;编舞由西莉亚·罗尔森-霍尔(Celia Rowlson-Hall)设计,源自震颤派礼拜的历史,带有一种特怀拉·撒普(Twyla Tharp)风格的棱角感和紧迫感。如果你是震颤派盒子、椅子、装饰以及一般震颤派文化的粉丝,你得等到影片进行到大约三分之二处才能看到相关情节。但如果我要像威廉·卡斯尔(William Castle)那样向观众推销《安·李》(Ann Lee),我会用这句宣传语:“大胆的震颤派盒子制作场景期间,无人能坐着看完!”这是影片中最怪异也最精彩的片段,搭配一首合唱为“我爱母亲,我爱她的方式”的歌曲,其催眠效果既舒缓又令人不安。 作为一个角色,李关于禁欲和坚定的坚定宣言有时令人难以忍受,尽管电影并未意识到这一点:它始终被她的高尚和贞洁所吸引,即使她理应受到一些侧目。这部电影对李的看法本质上是崇拜性的,从未承认过一个人获得如此无节制的钦佩其实有点令人毛骨悚然。(剧本由法斯特沃尔德和她的丈夫兼长期合作者布莱迪·科贝特(Brady Corbet)共同撰写;他们的上一部作品是《 Brutalist》(The Brutalist)。) 但李是女性这一事实——尽管她是一个强有力且坚定的女性——确实有所不同。历史通常告诉我们,有魅力的都是男性;女性则被贴上那种宽泛且模糊地称为“魅力”(charm)的乏味特质标签。《安·李的遗嘱》超越了这种语言,以一种很少有电影制作人会尝试的方式讲述了一个无人讲述过的故事。而且毫无疑问:塞弗里德表现出色。她那双月亮少女般的眼睛确实让她看起来像是在传递来自神圣世界的信息。她将剧本中最笨拙的台词变成了金色的网。《安·李的遗嘱》换任何其他女演员都无法想象——但话说回来,它本身就是无法想象的,一部在大多数日子里似乎对冒险过敏的文化中敢于冒险的电影。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。

蓝调之歌是最棒的让人喜闻乐见的作品

(SeaPRwire) - 如今电影院的观众寥寥无几,我们如何知道什么是取悦观众的作品呢?即使我们不再有常规的衡量标准,克雷格·布鲁尔(Craig Brewer)这部毫不掩饰的精彩 melodrama《Song Sung Blue》依然是最棒的取悦观众之作。在这个基于真实故事的影片中,休·杰克曼(Hugh Jackman)和凯特·哈德森(Kate Hudson)饰演密尔沃基的一对表演者迈克(Mike)和克莱尔·萨迪纳(Claire Sardina),他们的致敬表演意外大获成功。那是20世纪90年代,一切都很顺利——以“闪电与雷霆”(Lightning & Thunder)为名表演的萨迪纳夫妇甚至得以给珍珠果酱(Pearl Jam)暖场。然后一场意外改变了一切。你以前看过无数次这种战胜逆境的故事,但我们不断重温它们是有原因的——仍然有人知道如何在不矫揉造作的情况下讲述这类故事。布鲁尔凭借2005年的作品《川流熙攘》(Hustle & Flow)崭露头角,此后一直在大小项目上稳步工作——他有这个本事。即使你偶尔会翻白眼——一整部电影讲中西部尼尔·戴蒙德(Neil Diamond)的表演?真的吗?——他知道如何把你拉回到电影和生活中重要的事情上。 迈克(Mike)是一名努力在音乐界打拼的戒酒康复者——他以“闪电”(Lightning)为名表演——在他和克莱尔相遇时处于低谷。他渴望演唱原创歌曲,或者至少是像样的作品,但他不断被要求模仿唐·霍(Don Ho)等俗气的表演者。然后他遇到了克莱尔,一位在致敬表演圈工作的表演者:她穿着西部风格的服装,戴着卷曲的棕色假发,看起来很时髦,把自己变成了一个完全逼真的帕齐·克莱因(Patsy Cline),声音也与之匹配。两人成为情侣,在他们琢磨一些音乐想法时,是她激发了迈克的新抱负。他热爱尼尔·戴蒙德的音乐,唱得很美。“你不想成为尼尔·戴蒙德的模仿者,你想成为尼尔·戴蒙德的诠释者(interpreter),”她告诉他,两者的区别一下子就明白了。他设计了一个新表演,克莱尔负责键盘和伴唱,是他的“闪电”对应的“雷霆”。他们融合了家庭:克莱尔有两个孩子,聪明、稳重的青少年瑞秋(Rachel,由埃拉·安德森Ella Anderson饰演)和她更害羞的弟弟达纳(Dana,由哈德森·亨斯利Hudson Hensley饰演);迈克有一个女儿安吉莉娜(Angelina,由金·普林丝丝King Princess饰演),她沉着、面无表情,立刻和瑞秋合得来。迈克和克莱尔结婚了。克莱尔的婚礼服装包括一顶裹着薄纱的西部风格帽子;她容光焕发,是乡村音乐梦想的化身。“我想唱歌,我想跳舞,我想要房子,我想要花园,我想要一只猫!”她告诉迈克,一连串的话语触及了表演者的核心,即想要在外部世界和内心世界之间建立联系的想法。 有一段时间,《Song Sung Blue》的主要戏剧冲突围绕着迈克想以低调但强烈的戴蒙德歌曲《Soolaimon》开场,而他周围的人坚持认为观众只想听《Sweet Caroline》。然后克莱尔遭遇事故,需要数月康复和 rehab;她陷入愤怒和抑郁的泥潭。她、迈克和她的家人如何重新振作是《Song Sung Blue》的主要戏剧转折点,而布鲁尔——他也编写了剧本,以格雷格·科斯(Greg Kohs)2008年同名纪录片为框架——以流畅且令人满意的方式讲述了他们的崛起、衰落和回归的故事。 你可以说《Song Sung Blue》的每一个情节都在意料之中。但这难道不是你有时想要的吗?看到普通人度过艰难时期,而不是每分钟都兴高采烈、勇敢无畏?而且,像《Song Sung Blue》这样的电影的主要优势始终在于其演员。杰克曼擅长扮演个性鲜明的人,那种天生的艺人,需要在世界上留下自己的印记;在表演中,他希望自己奢华的头发恰到好处地飘动,这意味着无论舞台多小,他都得有风扇吹着。但他是个有灵魂的魅力人物。有一个场景,他为自己戒酒21周年生日录制视频信息——他的表演日程意味着那天他会错过戒酒互助会——捕捉到了他疯狂又慷慨的精神。是年幼的达纳拿着相机,这似乎让这个快乐但有点内向的孩子走出了壳。录制的迷你表演将成为电影的尾声,一个适合这部苦乐参半的励志电影的结尾。苦乐参半的励志电影也许是最好的类型。 但哈德森才是《Song Sung Blue》的真正核心。她可能因《如何在10天内丢掉一个男人》(How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days)等轻松浪漫喜剧成名,但和她母亲戈尔迪·霍恩(Goldie Hawn)一样,她远不止有轻快的阳光面。她在《几近成名》(Almost Famous)中饰演摇滚女友佩妮·莱恩(Penny Lane)非常出色,为“狂热粉丝”(groupie)这个词摆脱了不公正的嘲笑语境。在伊恩·索夫利(Iain Softley)精彩的鬼故事《万能钥匙》(Skeleton Key)中,她饰演一名 dedicated 的临终关怀工作者,被一座阴森的新奥尔良豪宅及其秘密吸引,轻松地圆场了电影中每一个突兀的情节转折。 在这里,作为克莱尔,她穿着妈妈牛仔裤,美极了。哈德森的脸更圆了,更柔和了——更“成熟”(older)了,一个我们从不被允许使用的形容词,即使这是描述表演者在角色或其他方面如何适应年龄变化的最佳方式。布鲁尔在《Song Sung Blue》中设计了一个华丽的梦境场景,毫不掩饰地借鉴了大卫·林奇(David Lynch)的风格:在这个梦境中,克莱尔从她黑暗、幽闭的卧室走了出来,现实中她已经好几个月没离开过这个房间,她走上夜总会的舞台,背景是闪亮的蓝色金属丝帘。她穿着一件闪闪发光、梦幻色彩的晚礼服,一半粉色,一半奶油色;她唱的歌是帕齐·克莱因的《Sweet Dreams》,和帕齐一样,她的声音在歌曲的第二个词上有一个小的降调,而这个词也是歌名的第二个词。在一个令人眼花缭乱的场景中,布鲁尔和哈德森捕捉到了从苦难中回到更广阔世界的意义。有时走调的音符是完美的音符,是我们可以在梦中歌唱的音符。诀窍是把它从黑暗中带到光明中。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。

No Other Choice未能捕捉到裁员的弊端 Latest News

No Other Choice未能捕捉到裁员的弊端

(SeaPRwire) - 现在正是改编唐纳德·E·韦斯特莱克1997年那部不留情面的小说《斧头》的最佳时机——这是一部对裁员作为去人性化形式进行深刻观察的作品。坏消息是,韩国大师期待多年才完成的《斧头》改编电影《别无选择》,并不是韦斯特莱克这部冷峻、锋利如匕首的小说应得的影像呈现。我们知道电影与书籍是不同的艺术形态,阅读带来的愉悦与银幕体验永远不会完全相同。但有时对原著的了解会埋下我们无法摆脱的期待。尽管朴赞郁是一位优秀的电影人——他2003年的《老男孩》是一部冷峻的歌剧式杰作——《别无选择》却既观察得过于平淡,又过于刻意地采用闹剧风格,未能击中目标。这是一次被娴熟电影技巧包装的机会错失。 朴赞郁采用了韦斯特莱克的核心设定——一位被裁员的造纸厂高管逐渐冷漠地有计划地除掉四位他认为更有资格获得他自认为应得职位的男性——并对其进行调整,将焦点更多转向一系列阴差阳错的事件,正是这些事件让影片主角(李秉宪饰演的万秀)得以连续作案而逃脱。影片开场时正值夏日,万秀站在他那栋优雅现代的庭院烧烤架前,烤制着造纸厂送来的鳗鱼——这是对他25年忠诚的谢礼。他的身边围绕着妻子美梨(孙艺珍饰)、孩子(十几岁的儿子时元( Woo Seung Kim 饰)和小女儿里元(崔素允 饰)),以及两只可爱蓬松的金毛犬——神经多样性且有天赋的大提琴手里元尤其喜爱它们。此刻,身处稳固的中产中年生活中的万秀,觉得自己拥有了人生中所有渴望的东西。 但很快他就会明白,这些昂贵的鳗鱼实则是残酷的安慰奖:公司要解雇他。他开始求职,但鉴于年龄和经验水平,没有适合的岗位。务实的美梨大幅削减了家庭开支,把狗送到别处寄养,并提议卖掉家族老宅——那是万秀长大的房子,此前曾被转卖,他努力工作才重新买回。随后,万秀终于获得了一家心仪公司的面试机会。不仅面试搞砸了,他还被曾是下属的朴熙顺饰演的傲慢角色善哲羞辱——对方本应成为他的上司。绝望中他策划了一个计划:除掉他极度渴望的职位的两位主要竞争者——温和真诚、在鞋店打发时间的时祖(车胜元 饰),以及落魄、终日酗酒的工程师范模(李星民 饰)。他还打算解决掉善哲。 万秀的第一次谋杀尝试滑稽得——过于滑稽地——失败了;第二次则冷酷高效。但第一次谋杀中那种刻意的荒诞(包括在泥里打滑、意外被蛇咬,以及一位持枪愤怒的挫败女性(严正化 饰)),让影片从此在摇摆不定的轴线上旋转,再未恢复平衡。李秉宪(因《鱿鱼游戏》最为人熟知,也曾出演朴赞郁2000年的突破作《共同警备区》)在影片前半段表现稳健,饰演了一个被命运颠覆的男人。他参加了一场挤满同处境中年男性的心理辅导会,所有人都在面对屈辱与男性尊严受挫的情绪。这就是资本主义的贪婪——可能还会被——进一步助长的贪婪——对一个人造成的影响。 然而这几乎不是《别无选择》的核心;影片日益复杂的情节反而削弱了故事本可带来的沉重情感冲击。由金宇亨掌镜的影片画面清晰优雅,还通过巧妙倾斜的镜头角度和视觉精致的转场玩出了趣味。但诗意何在?如果你熟悉朴赞郁的作品——不仅是《老男孩》,还有他2016年那部华美的情欲幻梦《》,或是2023年优雅的新黑色电影《》——你会知道他本可以做得更多,尤其是在这个虚假智能威胁到体面人类工作本质的节点。 1997年,韦斯特莱克借叙述者兼主角——突然失业、因无用感走向谋杀的善良人伯克·德沃尔之口说出了这些话。德沃尔反思道:“自动化未来总被描绘成好事,是人类的福祉,但我记得,甚至小时候就疑惑,那些不再从事枯燥麻木工作的人该怎么办?他们总得去别处工作吧?不然怎么吃饭?如果机器夺走了所有工作,他们靠什么谋生?”《别无选择》完全未能捕捉到德沃尔绝望的质感,也几乎未触及韦斯特莱克对未来的担忧。如今未来已至,《别无选择》对其危险的反思既非痛苦的呐喊,甚至不是干涩的黑色幽默。我们得到的只是一个过度设计的调皮眨眼。这远远不够。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。

(SeaPRwire) - Song Sung Blue, 于12月25日上映,由 和 饰演一对夫妻,他们在 致敬乐队中表演。 这些角色的灵感来自Mike和Claire Sardina这对真实夫妻,他们在威斯康星州以“Lightning and Thunder”为名表演Neil Diamond的经典歌曲。该片由Craig Brewer执导,戏剧化地展现了这对夫妻如何坠入爱河、在密尔沃基地区走红、经历改变人生的意外并重返舞台。 该片借鉴了Greg Kohs关于这些音乐人的纪录片,也名为Song Sung Blue,这个名字参考了Diamond的一首热门歌曲。Brewer在田纳西州的Indie Memphis电影节上发现了这部纪录片。Kohs是2025年电影《Song Sung Blue》的联合编剧,他曾给Sardina夫妇相机来记录纪录片中的真实瞬间,其中一些片段成为了Brewer电影中的场景。 Mike Sardina于2006年去世。Claire(启发了 的角色)通过Zoom谈论了电影对她职业生涯高潮与低谷的刻画。 Lightning and Thunder的诞生 Mike和Claire最初在密尔沃基地区分别表演流行经典歌曲,有一天Claire接到了Mike的电话,他自称“Lightning”,并问她是否愿意成为他的“Thunder”。 他们花了一段时间才建立起观众群。正如电影所示,这对组合确实在芝加哥的一家机车酒吧被喝倒彩。但在巨型音乐节Summerfest和Wisconsin State Fair表演后,他们的粉丝群增长了。1995年,作为Pearl Jam演唱会的开场嘉宾,与 一起演唱《Forever in Blue Jeans》让他们一举成名。 他们在舞台上相处的时间越多,就越坠入爱河。他们在Wisconsin State Fair结婚,Claire戴着一顶白色牛仔帽。作为靠福利生活的单亲妈妈,抚养着儿子(电影中由Hudson Hensley饰演)和女儿(Ella Anderson饰演),Claire一直将他们的爱情故事描述为童话。 Sardina说,她与Mike一起表演时最美好的回忆是演唱《Girl, You’ll Be a Woman Soon》,因为“他会牵起我的手,我们在舞台上共舞,他唱着这首歌,直接唱给我听。所以当他这样做时,就好像周围没有其他人,只有我们在一起跳舞。” Thunder遭重创 1999年5月10日,Claire在前院园艺时,一辆汽车失控撞上了她。她的左腿部分 。 Mike发誓要与Claire同甘共苦。正如他在纪录片《Song Sung Blue》的新闻采访片段中所说:“我用我的全心全意爱着这个女人。我会支持她。我会成为她的手臂、腿、耳朵、鼻子、嘴巴。我会为她做一切。” 观众将看到一个令人痛苦的片段, 的角色陷入深度抑郁。她无法表演,无法起床,甚至一度忘记给孩子喂食。在服用多种药物和与抑郁症抗争的过程中,Claire开始出现偏执、幻觉和妄想。家人在某晚发现她在前院唱歌后,决定将她送入精神科病房。 这个场景是虚构的,但它是Claire在电影中最喜欢的时刻,因为它完美捕捉了她当时的心理状态。“我仿佛回到了过去,重新经历了这一切,”她说道。“她在演绎我的经历时表现得非常出色。” 当Claire终于感觉足够好可以重新开始表演时,她坐在轮椅上或键盘后面,尽管她并不会弹键盘:“我就坐在那里,叮叮咚咚地乱按,基本上就是装样子。” 当她装上假肢后,开始在表演中更多地在舞台上移动。他们回到了Summerfest和Wisconsin State Fair,正如电影所示,她与Mike一起表演,而Mike当时在一家亚洲餐厅担任卡拉OK主持人。 在电影中完美诠释了Claire,她说道:“意外夺走了我的腿,但我不该让它夺走我的歌声。” 克服逆境的故事正是Brewer将他2025年的电影命名为《Song Sung Blue》的原因:“这不是一首悲伤的歌——从某种意义上说,这是一首欢快的歌。你正在经历人生中的一段悲伤时光,但它给了你这种确信,你可以度过难关……我觉得《Song Sung Blue》真正体现了这部电影的内涵。” Claire Sardina今天在哪里? 她一年中部分时间住在威斯康星州的一辆拖车里,离女儿很近,其余时间住在Apache Junction,离儿子很近,她儿子住在凤凰城。 64岁的她仍在表演——事实上,她在Zoom上突然唱起了 的经典歌曲《When I'm Sixty-Four》。她与Toney Luciano组成了另一个名为Thunder After Lightning的组合,她称他为“Claire-giver”,因为他也照顾她。她表演迪斯科歌曲以及 、 和Patsy Cline的热门歌曲翻唱,定期在乐队中担任卡拉OK和客串演出。 是的,她仍然听Neil Diamond的歌:“当我情绪低落或有点紧张时,我会播放Neil Diamond的音乐。我自己会唱《Sweet Caroline》。”她在2008年见到了这位明星,那是Mike去世两年后,他发誓只要到密尔沃基就会去看望她。 事故发生26年后,在跌入人生谷底之后,她说道:“我今天不再有那种感觉了。”当被问及她的伤势如今如何影响她时,她简单地说:“这是一种生活方式。就像任何必须应对糖尿病和胰岛素的人一样,我晚上要取下我的腿。” 她希望那些经历过挣扎——无论是身体上还是精神上——的观众在离开影院时会想:“嘿,我们经历过这些,我们可以东山再起,”或者“我们可以从这个经历中学习如何应对生活中的逆境。”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。

詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜改变了我们看待太空的方式

(SeaPRwire) - 第四个周年纪念日通常不是值得庆祝的时刻。但对于詹姆斯·韦伯太空望远镜(JWST)来说,它于2021年12月25日发射,这个周年纪念日标志着一个重要的转变。 到目前为止,JWST一直处于发现模式。它耗资,是历史上最强大的望远镜,能够以前所未有的距离和细节进行观测。 但与任何重大的新科学仪器一样,天文学家需要看到JWST的实际运作,才能回答未来几十年将驱动研究的基本问题:我们能看到多少宇宙? JWST建立在哈勃太空望远镜自1990年发射以来的进展之上。哈勃主要通过可见光光谱区域观测太空——这是我们眼睛进化的部分。然而,JWST主要在红外线观测,这使其能够穿透宇宙尘埃,观测更冷的物体,并窥视早期宇宙。 由于光速是有限的,观测越来越远的物体意味着看到越来越远的过去。而且,由于宇宙的膨胀——空间本身的膨胀——已经将最遥远物体的可见光拉伸成红外线,JWST可以搜寻大爆炸后约1亿年的第一缕光。 四个前沿 哈勃太空望远镜的同名天文学家埃德温·哈勃在1936年写道,“天文学的历史是不断后退的地平线的历史。”美国国家航空航天局(NASA),在欧洲空间局(European Space Agency)和加拿大航天局(Canadian Space Agency)的协助下,已经确定了四个这样的地平线,即他们设计JWST要跨越的前沿。 第一个是伽利略在17世纪初跨越的地平线,当时他将一个原始的透镜管(我们现在称之为望远镜)指向夜空,并跨越了连接陆地和天体的古老、此前无法逾越的鸿沟。在发现地球绕太阳运行而非相反的证据时,伽利略含蓄地将地球重新定位为行星系统中的一个普通成员。 现在,得益于JWST,太阳系的深层历史正变得清晰起来。通过研究海王星之外的许多冰冷天体的表面化学成分,JWST研究人员可以追溯整个太阳系的出现和演化。与此同时,在小行星带(木星和火星轨道之间的一带“碎片”)中发现水,这增加了彗星可能不是唯一为地球原始大气层播下生命必需品的物体的可能性。 但我们的太阳只是一颗恒星。在太阳系的地平线之外,是我们的银河系中数千亿颗其他恒星,其中许多都拥有行星系统。天文学家正在利用JWST对处于不同发展阶段的系统进行采样——从最初聚集将最终凝聚成轨道物体盘的气体和尘埃的原始“原恒星”,到像我们自己的行星系统一样完全成熟的行星系统。或者,与我们自己的系统不同。 JWST在一个又一个行星系统中发现了我们自己的系统所没有的一种行星。我们的系统历史上被分为两类:气态巨行星(木星、土星、天王星、海王星)和微小的岩石行星(水星、金星、地球、火星)。但得益于JWST,我们现在知道其他行星系统包括天文学家称之为迷你海王星(围绕岩石核心的气体)或超级地球(可能是一个曾经的迷你海王星,已经脱落了大气层)的变体。 但我们的银河系只是一个星系。在那个地平线之外——正如天文学家哈勃本人在20世纪20年代发现的那样——还有其他星系。与银河系中的行星系统一样,天文学家也正在利用JWST对宇宙中处于不同发展阶段的星系进行采样,从气体云,到气体云的碰撞,到恒星的诞生,到恒星的死亡。其中一些死亡——爆炸的恒星,或超新星——可能有助于解释一个困扰天文学家半个世纪的问题:宇宙似乎比天文学家所能解释的含有更多的尘埃,但这些尘埃必须来自某个地方。超新星可能是那个来源吗?初步研究很有希望。 超新星本身为宇宙的演化提供了另一个线索。自20世纪50年代以来,科学家们就知道,连续几代超新星,由于热核力撕裂和重组物质的基本构成要素,会产生越来越重的元素。从一开始,JWST的最终目标就是找到第一个“原始”星系,除了氢和氦之外,不含任何元素。为了做到这一点,JWST必须跨越可见光哈勃太空望远镜本身无法跨越的地平线:大爆炸后约10亿年的截止点。 到目前为止,JWST已经能够观测到大爆炸后3亿年内的星系、超新星和黑洞。虽然这可能看起来是一段很长的时间,但在一个137亿岁的宇宙中,这只是短暂的一瞬。 JWST的研究人员才刚刚开始。他们预计JWST项目将持续到2040年代。还有很多周年纪念日。我们应该希望它们都能像这次一样值得庆祝。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。

特朗普政府将在重大改革中放弃随机H-1B签证抽签 Latest News

特朗普政府将在重大改革中放弃随机H-1B签证抽签

(SeaPRwire) - 特朗普政府已宣布对H-1B签证计划进行重大改革,将取代长期以来用于向具备专业资格的外国工人发放签证的抽签制度,采用新的加权系统,优先考虑高技能、高收入的工人。 该规定定于2026年2月26日生效,将从2027财年注册季开始,管理每年发放的数万份H-1B签证。 每年最多有8.5万份此类签证可供申请(允许外国专业人士填补高专业领域岗位),其中包括2万份针对拥有高级学位者的签证。需求通常超过这一年度配额。 目前,美国企业每年通过完全随机的抽签方式争夺有限的签证名额。然而根据新规定,最高薪资水平的申请人将获得4个抽签名额,次高薪资区间的申请人获得3个名额,依此类推。 这意味着薪资水平更高或资质更优的申请人获得签证的概率将高于薪资较低或技能较普通的申请人。低薪或低技能工人虽不会被完全排除,但中签概率会更低。 美国公民及移民服务局(U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services)在周二的一份声明中表示,这一调整旨在“更好地保护美国工人的薪资、工作条件和就业机会”。 尽管H-1B签证计划的支持者认为该计划能吸引全球人才并推动创新,但批评者指出,现行制度使雇主得以以低于美国本土工人的薪资雇佣外国劳工。 美国公民及移民服务局发言人马修·特拉格瑟(Matthew Tragesser)在声明中称:“现有的H-1B注册随机筛选流程被美国雇主利用和滥用,这些雇主主要试图以低于雇佣美国工人的薪资引进外国劳工。通过这些监管调整及未来的其他措施,我们将继续更新H-1B计划,在帮助美国企业的同时,杜绝损害美国工人利益的滥用行为。” 但移民律师多布里娜·M·乌斯通(Dobrina M. Ustun)向《新闻周刊》(Newsweek)表示,该规定“可能意外地将国会意图通过H-1B计划帮助的雇主排除在外”。 她向该媒体提交的书面声明称:“将薪资水平作为技能的替代指标,忽视了创新、医学研究和初创企业的实际运作方式,这将对推动长期经济增长和公共利益(而非短期利润)的机构造成不成比例的损害。” 该规定于12月29日在《联邦公报》(Federal Register)上公布,并将于60天后生效,以赶上2027财年H-1B注册季。此前提交的申请将沿用旧抽签制度。该规定的最终确定速度显著较快——国土安全部(Department of Homeland Security)在上周五向白宫信息与监管事务办公室(Office of Information and Regulatory Affairs)提交草案版本仅数日后,便发布了正式文本。 这一规定标志着特朗普政府大幅重塑美国移民政策努力的最新举措。 今年早些时候,特朗普还签署公告,对H-1B申请征收费用。此举已面临多项法律挑战;周二,一名法官驳回了由美国商会(U.S. Chamber of Commerce)和美国大学协会(Association of American Universities)提起的一项诉讼(该诉讼指控该费用不合法),但相关团体仍可能上诉。本月早些时候,一个民主党州联盟也因该费用提起诉讼。 特拉格瑟表示:“作为特朗普政府致力于H-1B改革承诺的一部分,我们将继续对雇主和外籍人士提出更高要求,避免削弱美国工人利益,坚持美国优先。” 特朗普曾表示支持允许部分高技能移民进入美国,填补关键行业岗位并帮助培训美国工人——这一立场使其与党内部分成员(包括“让美国再次伟大”(MAGA)运动的坚定支持者、佐治亚州众议员)产生分歧。 其政府更广泛地寻求限制移民,推行激进的...(原文此处缺失)并收紧合法入境途径——在一名阿富汗国民因涉嫌枪击两名华盛顿特区国民警卫队成员被捕后,政府近几周加强了这一努力。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。
