蒙大拿州的立法者星期五通过了全国第一个禁止Tik Tok的法案。该法案将于2024年1月1日生效,禁止在所有个人设备上使用Tik Tok,并禁止应用商店提供Tik Tok下载。任何违反法律的实体将被处以每次10,000美元的罚款。蒙大拿州众议院以54票赞成、43票反对的结果最终通过了这项名为SB419的法案,现等待共和党州长签署生效。自去年12月以来,蒙大拿州一直是禁止在政府拥有的设备上使用这款由中国母公司字节跳动开发的应用程序的州和其他司法管辖区之一。该立法标志着州一级的政府出于安全考虑限制 TikTok迈出了最远的一步,而同时,联邦立法者呼吁在全国范围内禁止TikTok。Montana lawmakers on Friday passed a first-in-the-nation bill to ban TikTok across the state. The bill, which would go into effect on Jan. 1, 2024, prohibits the use of TikTok on all personal devices and bars app stores from offering TikTok for downloads. The bill, which would go into effect on Jan. 1, 2024, prohibits the use of TikTok on all personal devices and bars app stores from offering TikTok for downloads. It would fine any entity violating the law $10,000 per violation, and awaits the signature of Republican Gov. Greg Gianforte. Members of Montana's House voted 54-43 to give final approval to the bill, known as SB419. Montana, since December, has been among the states and other jurisdictions barring the app, developed by Chinese parent company ByteDance, from government-owned devices. The legislation marks the furthest step yet by a state government to restrict TikTok over perceived security concerns and comes as federal lawmakers call for a national ban of TikTok.
在美中紧张局势升级的背景下,特斯拉没有停止在上海的扩张计划。新的特斯拉电池工厂计划于今年第三季度破土动工,计划2024年第二季度投入生产。特斯拉的投资金额尚不清楚。特斯拉表示计划每年生产10,000 个Megapack电池。这相当于大约 40 千兆瓦时的储能,该产品将出售全世界。中国是特斯拉仅次于美国的第二大市场,占了它在 2022 年收入的四分之一。它位于上海市郊的汽车厂大约占公司全球汽车交付量的一半。在中国,特斯拉面临来自本土企业的竞争,使用类似且更便宜的电动汽车,例如沃伦-巴菲特支持的比亚迪公司和在美国上市的上海蔚來汽车有限公司和小鹏汽车有限公司。The planned expansion in Shanghai comes as U.S.-China tensions rise. The new factory is scheduled to break ground in the third quarter this year and start production in the second quarter of 2024. The amount of Tesla’s investment is not immediately clear. Tesla said it plans to produce 10,000 Megapack units every year. That is equal to about 40 gigawatt hours of energy storage, and the product will be sold worldwide. China is the second-largest market for Tesla after the U.S., accounting for nearly a quarter of its revenue in 2022. Its car plant in Shanghai, located on the outskirts of the city, accounts for roughly half of the company’s global car deliveries. In China, Tesla faces competition from homegrown players with similar and cheaper electric vehicles, such as Warren Buffett-backed BYD Co. and U.S.-listed NIO Inc. and XPeng Inc.
在有关乌克兰战争和其他全球问题的高度机密信息泄露后,美国高级官员正竞相安抚从欧洲到中东再到基辅的沮丧和困惑的盟友。在美国情报文件发布在聊天应用程序 Discord 上后,联邦调查局特工于周四逮捕了马萨诸塞州空军国民警卫队成员杰克-道格拉斯-特谢拉。杰克·特谢拉 (Jack Teixeira) 拥有联邦政府授予的最高级别的绝密信息安全许可。逮捕这名 21 岁的空军国民警卫队队员引起了众怒,因为批评人士想知道一个年轻人如何能够获得如此高级别的国家安全信息。总检察长梅里克-加兰Merrick Garland表示,特谢拉Teixeira正在接受调查,罪名是“涉嫌未经授权,移除、保留和传输机密国防信息”。Senior U.S. officials are racing to placate frustrated and confused allies from Europe to the Middle East to Kyiv following the leak of highly classified information about the war in Ukraine and other global issues. FBI agents arrested Massachusetts Air National Guardsman Jack Douglas Teixeira on Thursday after U.S. intelligence documents were posted on the chat app Discord. Jack Teixeira had the highest-level security clearance granted by the federal government for top secret information. The arrest of the 21-year-old Air National Guardsman has been met with outrage as critics wonder how a young man could have such high-level access to national security information. Attorney General Merrick Garland said that Teixeira is being investigated for the "alleged unauthorized removal, retention, and transmission of classified national defense information”.
本周四,密西根州州长格雷琴·惠特默 (Gretchen Whitmer) 签署了一项包含六项内容广泛的枪支暴力预防法案的一揽子法律,该法案将为所有枪支建立普遍的背景调查,并强制要求枪支的安全存放,杜绝儿童接触。近年来,密西根州受到了致命校园枪击事件的影响。今年2 月,一名枪手枪杀了三名密西根州立大学的学生,并使另外五人受重伤。2021 年,底特律附近的牛津Oxford高中发生枪击事件,导致四名学生死亡,另有六人受伤。这一揽子计划包括两项法案,重点是建立普遍的背景调查,禁止该州的人在没有获得枪支许可证的情况下购买和携带枪支。此外,其中一项法案要求,有未成年人居住或可能有未成年人造访的家庭,枪主须将枪支拆卸并用锁定装置锁定,或将其存放在家中的密码箱中。This Thursday Michigan’s Democratic Gov. Gretchen Whitmer signed a package of six expansive gun violence prevention bills into law that will create universal background checks for all firearms and mandate safe storage requirements around children. Michigan has felt the impact of deadly school shootings in recent years. In February, a gunman killed three Michigan State University students and critically wounded five others. In 2021, a shooting at Oxford High School near Detroit left four students dead and six others injured. The package includes two bills that focus on creating universal background checks that will bar people in the state from purchasing and carrying a firearm if they have not received a license for it. In addition, one bill will require people to keep their firearms unloaded and locked with a locking device or stored in a lockbox in their home if a minor lives at or is likely to visit the property.
周五,最高法院大法官塞缪尔·阿利托 (Samuel Alito) 延长了对下级法院裁决的对堕胎药物施加限制的搁置,暂时允许堕胎药物的使用,这一临时举措旨在让法官有更多时间考虑这个问题。Alito 说这一命令会一直保留到美国东部时间下周三晚上 11 点 59 分。他还要求原告在美国东部时间下周二中午或之前做出回应。此案是自上届法官推翻Roe v. Wade 案以来最高法院受理的最重要的堕胎相关纠纷。它以美国食品和药物管理局监管一种药物的权力范围为中心,这种药物在当今仍允许堕胎的各州大量使用。Alito 对该裁决发出了所谓的行政中止令,而高等法院正在考虑拜登政府和该药物制造商mifepristone提出的紧急上诉。此举并不反映案件的最终处理结果。Supreme Court Justice Samuel Alito on Friday extended a hold on a lower court ruling that would have imposed restrictions on access to an abortion drug, a temporary move meant to give the justices more time to consider the issue. Alito said the order is stayed until 11:59 p.m. ET on next Wednesday. He also asked plaintiffs to respond on or before noon ET next Tuesday. The case is the most important abortion-related dispute to reach the high court since the justices overturned Roe v. Wade last term. It centers on the scope of the US Food and Drug Administration’s authority to regulate a drug that is used in the majority of abortions today in states that still allow the procedure. Alito issued a so-called administrative stay on the ruling while the high court considers an emergency appeal filed by the Biden administration and a manufacturer of the drug, mifepristone. The move does not reflect the final disposition.美国四家最大的银行表示,第一季度净收入和收入较一年前飙升,表明该行业巨头在 3 月份考验地区银行的挑战中的弹性。美国最大的银行摩根大通公布的利润为 126 亿美元,比 2022 年第一季度增长 52%。其收入为 383 亿美元,比去年同期增长 25%。富国银行Wells Fargo赚了 50 亿美元,花旗集团Citigroup赚了 46 亿美元,PNC 赚了 17 亿美元。硅谷银行和 Signature Bank 倒闭带来的混乱局面并没有让该行业的巨头们完全幸免。摩根大通、富国银行和 PNC 的存款同比分别下降 7%、8% 和 3%,而花旗集团则基本持平。然而,与 2022 年第四季度相比,摩根大通和 PNC 的存款确实略有增加。Four of the nation’s biggest banks said first quarter net income and revenue surged from a year ago, demonstrating the resiliency of the industry's giants amid the challenges that tested regional lenders in March. The nation's biggest bank, JPMorgan Chase reported a profit of $12.6 billion that was up 52% from the first quarter of 2022. Its revenue of $38.3 billion was up 25% from the year-ago period. Wells Fargo earned $5 billion, Citigroup earned $4.6 billion, and PNC earned $1.7 billion. The giants of the industry were not totally immune from the chaos surrounding the failures of Silicon Valley Bank and Signature Bank. Deposits at JPMorgan, Wells Fargo and PNC fell by 7%, 8% and 3% from a year ago, while Citigroup was roughly flat. JPMorgan and PNC deposits did rise slightly, however, compared with the fourth quarter of 2022.
FBI警告消费者不要使用公共电话充电站,以免他们的设备受到恶意软件的攻击。根据美国联邦调查局丹佛分部上周发布的一条推文,不法分子正在利用公共 USB 站(例如在商场和机场发现的那种)来传播恶意软件和监控软件。该机构在推文中建议:“携带自己的充电器和 USB 线,并使用电源插座。” 虽然当设备电量严重不足时,公共充电站对许多人很有吸引力,但安全专家多年来一直对这种风险表示担忧。The FBI is warning consumers against using public phone charging stations in order to avoid exposing their devices to malicious software. Public USB stations like the kind found at malls and airports are being used by bad actors to spread malware and monitoring software, according to a tweet last week from the FBI’s Denver branch. “Carry your own charger and USB cord and use an electrical outlet instead,” the agency advised in the tweet. While public charging stations are attractive to many when devices are running critically low on battery, security experts have for years raised concerns about the risk.

美国宇航局第100任飞行主任Fiona Turett毕业于罗切斯特Rochester社区学校,曾就读于Meadow Brook小学、西中学(West Middle School)和罗切斯特高中。这个星期四,她抽出时间与West Middle School的学生交谈。Fiona Turett向学生讲述了Rochester社区学校如何帮助她实现梦想,并回答了他们关于探索外太空的价值的问题。“我们可以利用太空来帮助我们改善地球上的生活,”她在分享外太空种植食物和健康实验的照片时解释道。“我希望孩子们带走的是,如果你有梦想,你追随它并努力工作,你就能做到,” West校长Lisa Fosnaugh说, “这是我们培养的一个毕业生。这是一个走过这些大厅的人。我们2002年的一名八年级学生现在正在为 NASA 工作并取得了伟大的成就,”,他邀请了Turett发言。Turett说,她希望美国宇航局的探索能激励人类去尝试实现看似不可能的事情。Fiona Turett is a graduate of the Rochester Community School district, having attended Meadow Brook Elementary, West Middle, and Rochester High School. This Thursday she made time to talk to students at West Middle School. Fiona Turett told students how Rochester Community Schools helped her achieve her dreams and answered their questions about the value of exploring outer space. “We can use space to help us improve life on Earth,” she explained as she shared photos of experiments with growing food and health in outer space. “What I want kids to take away is if you have a dream and you follow it and you work hard, you can do that,” she said. “This is one of ours. This is one that walked these halls. One of our eighth graders from 2002 is now working for NASA and achieving great things,” said Lisa Fosnaugh, West Principal, who invited Turett to speak. Turett says she hopes NASA explorations inspire humanity to try to achieve what seems impossible.英文播报:NathanZhang (龙鹰卫视青少年团)新闻来源:WSJ, Politico, Fox News, CNN, Yahoo News, WXYZ.com, Marketwatch, NBC
