One of the key objectives of the AIGC Director Co-creation Program is to empower filmmakers to embrace AI technology as a tool for creativity and innovation, rather than as a threat to traditional artistic practices. By highlighting the ways in which AI can enhance and enrich the creative process, the program seeks to inspire a new generation of filmmakers to push the boundaries of their craft and explore uncharted territories in storytelling.Moreover, the meeting also underscored the importance of implementing targeted measures to support key sectors and industries that are facing difficulties, such as small and medium-sized enterprises and high-tech industries. By providing targeted support to these sectors, the government can help alleviate pressure on the economy and ensure that these key sectors continue to drive growth and innovation.
DULUTH — Minnesota Duluth senior goaltender Tindra Holm picked up her 19th collegiate shutout Saturday by making just 12 saves in a 2-0 win for the No. 4-ranked Bulldogs against Bemidji State in WCHA play at Amsoil Arena. Junior defenseman Tova Henderson and fifth-year senior wing Olivia Mobley scored the Bulldogs' goals to complete the series sweep following an 8-1 win on Friday. ADVERTISEMENT Beavers sophomore goaltender Eva Filippova, who came on in relief Friday, finished with 37 saves, but no offensive support from her teammates. “I thought they did a really good job of blocking a lot of the shots that we were taking today,” Bulldogs coach Laura Schuler said. BSU was credited with 18 blocked shots on UMD’s 70 shot attempts. “We really had to work to get the two goals that we got.” Highlights Schuler wasn’t willing to call Friday’s 8-1 win perfect because of some defensive lapses by the Bulldogs. UMD got away from “Bulldog hockey” at times on Friday, she said. “That’s playing honest hockey and defense first, and staying true to our habits,” Schuler said. Saturday was much closer to “Bulldog hockey,” according to Schuler, who is always thinking of the big picture instead of just the short-term joy an 8-1 dismantling might bring. “It’s awesome to get another two wins under our belt,” Schuler said. “And for us it’s about cultivating good habits — good habits that are going to help carry us through every game we play.” The Bulldogs were confident on Saturday. That was Schuler’s biggest positive from Saturday’s game. It’s easy to be confident when you’re leading by five, six or seven goals. It’s a different story when you’re up by one or two goals. ADVERTISEMENT “They were still playing with that confidence and that poise versus panicking,” Schuler said. “I didn’t think we panicked at all today, even though it was a close game on the scoreboard. I was super, super happy with the girls and how they were playing.” Henderson finishes with three goals in the series and now has five through 14 games in 2024-25 after scoring just two in her first 77 games as a Bulldogs freshman and sophomore. Henderson gave the Bulldogs a 1-0 lead 12:47 into the game, scoring on UMD’s one and only power play of the game. After scoring twice on Friday, Henderson heaped credit for the uptick in offense on her defensive partner, fifth-year senior Nina Jobst-Smith, in her postgame interview. Henderson said playing with Jobst-Smith gives her confidence, and Jobst-Smith said that’s exactly what has stood out to her about Henderson this year. “She’s always had the skill set in college and I feel like her and I have taken similar paths in that sense, having a slower start to our careers,” Jobst-Smith said. “Once we get going, we’re hot. Tova is hitting that point in her career where she is going to be producing for us all night long.” The Olivias lead the Bulldogs in goals scored through 14 games with Mobley getting her sixth on Saturday after fellow fifth-year senior Olivia Wallin got a hat trick on Friday. Wallin assisted on a snipe by Mobley in the second period to put the Bulldogs up by two. Mobley credited her teammates, and good habits from the previous shift for setting up the score. ADVERTISEMENT “(Wallin) gave me a nice breakout pass, we had speed coming through,” Mobley said of her goal, that came on a two-versus-one rush with senior center Jenna Lawry. Mobley kept the puck and took the shot herself. “Jenna drove back door, which was huge. It pushed the goalie back. “It starts in the (defensive) zone, with those little habits. That was a whole play before, a shift before setting it up. I was just able to execute on that one and get it done.” Holm picked up her second shutout as a Bulldog on Saturday after posting 16 in three seasons at Long Island University. Holm only had to make two saves in the opening 20 minutes before the Beavers started getting a few more pucks on her during a power play in the second period. Saturday’s 12 saves were not the fewest Holm has had to make to get a shutout. She stopped 9-of-9 for the Sharks on Jan. 27, 2023, against St. Michael as a sophomore and 6-of-6 on Oct. 29, 2021 as a freshman, also against St. Michael. Up next The Bulldogs will host Vermont for a nonconference series at 6:01 p.m. on Friday and 3:01 p.m. Saturday over Thanksgiving weekend. It’s the second of three nonconference series on this year’s schedule. Box score Bemidji State 0-0-0—0 Minnesota Duluth 1-1-0—0 First period 1.

The recent kerfuffle caused by Musk’s and Trump’s objections to the bipartisan funding agreement resulted in House Republicans defeating the agreed-upon bill. The second bill, approved by the two objectors, was defeated. The final bill, which passed in the nick of time, had many of the elements of the original. However, three significant things were eliminated in the final bill: increased scrutiny and regulation of the operations of US businesses in China; restructuring of payments for pharmacy benefit managers; and $20 billion in IRS funding. So, Musk (who is expanding his technology operations in China), United Heath Group (which has the largest PBM operation in the US), and wealthy tax cheats all received nice gifts this Christmas.

Nucor Co. (NUE) to Issue Quarterly Dividend of $0.55 on February 11thNational Fuel Gas to Issue Quarterly Dividend of $0.52 (NYSE:NFG)London’s beleaguered NHS will be in a “very different place” in a decade, a health minister has vowed, ahead of a ‘Ten Year Plan’ to transform the health service. Speaking to the Standard ahead of an event where more than 100 Londoners were invited to share their experience of the NHS, Public Health Minister Andrew Gwynne said the NHS was “broken but not beaten”. He vowed ministers would clamp down on soaring waiting lists , with around 1.2million Londoners in the queue for treatment, and use new technologies to shift the health service’s focus to prevention. Secretary of State for Health and Social Care Wes Streeting will unveil ten-year plans for what ministers have pledged will be a transformative overhaul of the NHS next year. “This is a 10 year plan and we're focused on a decade of national renewal,” Mr Gwynne said ahead of the consultation event on Sunday, alongside a visit to Great Ormond Street Hospital. “And I would hope and expect that the NHS in 10 years time is in a very different place to the NHS we've inherited. “We've done it before. Those of us that have been around the block for as long as I have, remember it in 1997 when the then Labour government came into office and the NHS was on its knees, the longest waiting times, the longest waiting lists and shocking patient experiences in many respects. “And when we left office, the NHS was far from perfect, but it was heading massively in the right direction.” Among the changes to feature in the plan is a shift from ‘hospital to community’, the phasing out of unnecessary letters with a single patient record, and new neighbourhood health centres to focus on prevention. The capital hosted the largest in a series of public events on how the NHS needs to change on Sunday, with residents telling ministers and senior NHS executives of their struggles to access timely care. Of the 1.2million Londoners on a waiting list, more than 34,000 of those have been waiting for more than a year already. The latest data also shows over 38,000 patients waited more than 4 weeks for a GP appointment in London, as of September. Mr Gwynne also reaffirmed a commitment to build new hospitals, with the last Conservative government announcing plans to build 40 new hospitals by 2030. The plans are being reviewed by ministers, which is slated to include several major London hospitals such as Charing Cross Hospital and Hillingdon Hospital. “We are committed to the hospitals program,“ he said. “We are looking at how we can best deliver that and how we can get the resources to be able to deliver that, but it remains our commitment that we will be building the hospitals in the program. We just need to work through the finances and the phases. “And that is a consequence of the terrible legacy that the last government left us with plans, but no money.” Last month, the Government invited the public to submit ideas for the future of the NHS on a dedicated website, attracting 9,000 submissions. Alongside some initial joke suggestions - such as putting beer on tap in hospitals - which have since been removed, ideas include pop-up or mobile clinics, an NHS research programme to target early prevention, and digitised records.

Tyrese Haliburton had 31 points, six rebounds and seven assists as the visiting Indiana Pacers pulled away late for a 123-114 victory over the Boston Celtics on Sunday night. Six players scored in double figures for Indiana, which beat Boston in two of the teams' three regular-season meetings. Andrew Nembhard returned from a one-game absence (left knee) and added 17 points, eight rebounds and eight assists for the Pacers, who also got 17 points, eight boards and six assists from Pascal Siakam. Bennedict Mathurin scored 14 points, Myles Turner netted 13 and Jarace Walker contributed 12 points off the bench to help Indiana snap its two-game losing streak. Jaylen Brown led the Celtics with 31 points and six assists. Jayson Tatum added 22 points, nine rebounds and six assists but was just 2-of-10 from 3-point range. Al Horford went just 1-of-10 from deep and finished with five points. Reserve Payton Pritchard scored 19 of his 21 points in the first half for Boston, which has lost three of its last four games. A three-point play by Tatum completed a 9-0 spurt that pulled the Celtics within 105-103 with 7:38 left, but the Pacers scored the next 13 points to put the game out of reach. Although Indiana led by 11 early, Boston had a 29-27 advantage after one quarter. The Pacers scored 38 points in the second quarter and had a 65-58 halftime lead. Indiana shot 59.5 percent from the field in the first half (25-of-42). Each team scored 33 points in the third quarter, which gave the Pacers a 98-91 edge entering the fourth. The Celtics were again without Jrue Holiday (right shoulder impingement) and Kristaps Porzingis (left ankle), both of whom didn't play in Friday's 142-105 home victory over Indiana. Holiday has missed the last three games, and Porzingis turned his angle during a loss to Philadelphia on Wednesday. The Pacers' Obi Toppin missed his second straight game with a left ankle sprain. --Field Level Media/Reuters
