六十年前,史上最愚蠢的龐德仿製作品未能開啟系列電影

Universal Pictures(SeaPRwire) -   我們要感謝 Dr. No 開啟了電影史上最具代表性的系列之一,儘管與[某作品]相比,它節奏緩慢且畫面廉價。不過在1962年上映時,它卻顛覆了間諜類型片,並引發了一波模仿潮,眾多作品試圖複製其票房成功。大多數模仿作品——無論是像 The Quiller Memorandum 這類嚴肅故事、008: Operation Exterminate 與 Agent 077: Mission Bloody Mary 這類規避版權的山寨作品,還是 Dr. Goldfoot and the Bikini Machine 這類諷刺模仿片——都已被遺忘許久。然而,有一部作品卻因極度糟糕而被人記住。《Agent for H.A.R.M.》因 Mystery Science Theater 3000 的一集而流傳後世,該片講述油腔滑調的間諜Adam Chance(Mark Richman飾)試圖阻止蘇聯的陰謀——用致命孢子撒在美國農作物上,這種孢子會將人類皮膚變成冒泡的綠色漿液。理論上,這涉及強硬共產主義者Basil Malko與蘇聯叛逃科學家Jan Stefanik博士之間的貓鼠遊戲,後者研發了致命的孢子手槍。但實際上,影片大部分時間都是Chance坐在Stefanik家中,偶爾出去射擊一些東西。《Agent for H.A.R.M.》於60年前的今天上映,最初是作為類似 The Man from U.N.C.L.E. 風格的電視試播集構思的,後來才改為一次性院線電影。它被降級的原因已隨時間流逝,但從 H.A.R.M. 整體的拙劣表現以及當時充斥螢幕的間諜劇(除了 U.N.C.L.E. 及其衍生劇 Girl from U.N.C.L.E. 外,電視上還有 Get Smart、I Spy、The Avengers 和 The Saint 等作品)來看,不難做出合理猜測。H.A.R.M. 糟糕到連諷刺性推薦都不值得;它不是「爛到極致反而好看」,而是單純的爛。Richman是一位實力派演員,以出演 The Twilight Zone、Star Trek: The Next Generation 和 Friday the 13th Part VIII 聞名,他帶有一種冷漠的魅力,而影片也有一些奇怪的有趣點子,比如一位古怪的停屍間技術員把屍體當成旅館客人對待。但說 H.A.R.M. 節奏緩慢簡直是侮辱羅斯冰架,因為影片在無盡的對話和定場鏡頭中拖拖拉拉,偶爾才有諸如「Adam跳出麵包車」或「Adam騎摩托車略超速」這類微不足道的刺激場面。我們瀟灑的超級間諜。 | Universal Pictures《H.A.R.M.》的迷人之處在於它展現了一個人人都想模仿邦德的時代。從牽強的縮略詞(Human Aetiological Relations Machine,顯然指監控Chase健康狀況的笨重電腦)和科幻元素,到Chase與老闆的秘書調情、與穿著獨特的打手格鬥,它甚至不試圖掩飾自己的意圖——這是間諜技藝的糟糕範例。時髦的主題音樂和Chase的蹩腳裝備顯示出 H.A.R.M. 想要成為系列作品的野心,但儘管所有元素都在,它們卻像是從不同拼圖中隨意拿出來拼湊的。少數廉價的場景設定讓影片的預算限制顯而易見,但 H.A.R.M. 真正的敗筆在於奇怪的決策。大部分劇情圍繞Malko試圖從Stefanik博士那裡脅迫出孢子的解藥展開,儘管這似乎與他的下毒計畫無關。一位穿比基尼的年輕蘇聯雙面間諜(Barbara Bouchet飾,她後來在Peter Sellers的諷刺電影 Casino Royale 中飾演Moneypenny)據說是射箭專家,但她練習時的目標距離近到唾手可得。就連Chase用衣架勒死打手的場景,看起來也更像變態而非刺激。或許影片的拙劣最能體現在一個場景中:Adam用電動刮鬍刀偷偷錄製與Stefanik的對話,儘管他毫無理由這麼做——只是因為這看起來像間諜會做的事。當你的高潮槍戰看起來像舊版《Police Squad》的笑話時,這可不是個好兆頭。 | Universal PicturesH.A.R.M. 或許還是作為電視試播集更好——刪掉30分鐘的沉悶內容,並降低連B級片都有的預算期望,那麼看第二部Adam Chance冒險故事的想法也不那麼令人反感。但60年代最不需要的就是另一個縮略詞命名的間諜,尤其是那個說出「蘋果派之類的東西?嗯,我的工作就是讓派留在餐桌上」這類話的間諜。如果邦德設定了那個時代的黃金標準,那麼 H.A.R.M. 在起跑線上就摔了個狗吃屎,隨即被眾多對手踐踏。Amazon即將推出的邦德重啟版不太可能催生另一批像 Our Man Flint 這樣的電影——該片講述Z.O.W.I.E.特工Derek Flint與邪惡的吳博士糾纏的故事。然而,除非這家串流平台完全失能,否則它將提醒我們為什麼邦德能維持數十年的影響力,而無數模仿者卻淪為過眼雲煙。批評者可能會抱怨邦德老套且公式化,但他的公式之所以有效是有原因的。好萊塢數十年來試圖複製這個公式的嘗試,結果和Malko試圖獲得解藥一樣徒勞無功。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

美國「綁架」馬杜羅是「現代帝國主義」——南非最大工會發言人指控

(SeaPRwire) -   Phakamile Hlubi-Majola警告,如果華盛頓在委內瑞拉的所作所為被放任,它將會把目標轉向其他國家 根據南非最大工會National Union of Metalworkers of South Africa (NUMSA)的發言人Phakamile Hlubi-Majola表示,導致委內瑞拉領導人Nicolas Maduro被捕的美國軍事行動,是現代帝國主義和「赤裸裸的殖民主義」的體現。 她在週日告訴RT,必須在華盛頓將目光轉向其他國家之前阻止它。 「非常明顯,這與民主絕對毫無關係,」Hlubi-Majola說。她指出,美國總統唐納德·川普曾公開「表示美國政府將『管理委內瑞拉』,這告訴你這不過是現代帝國主義,而他們唯一的興趣就是奪取委內瑞拉的石油。」 「如果川普通過武力接管委內瑞拉而得以逍遙法外,他接下來將會轉向並武力接管其他國家,」這位發言人警告道。 在此觀看完整訪談:本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

iMe 與 Attractor:Web3 大規模採用的突破性時刻

香港 - 2026年1月5日 - (SeaPRwire) - Web3 的大規模採用,並不是通過更響亮的敘事或更鋒利的口號實現的。它往往是悄然發生的——依託於逐漸隱形的基礎設施,在後臺無縫支撐人們的日常數字行為。而這一拐點,或許比許多人預期的更近。 iMe 是一款基於 Telegram 的超級應用,融合了即時通訊、AI 交互與去中心化金融(DeFi)。目前,iMe 在 Google Play 和 App Store 的累計下載量已突破 1700 萬。其最新發佈的 iMe Wallet 2.0 並不僅僅是一次版本升級,而是一次關於 Web3 交付方式的戰略性轉變。 iMe 並未將加密貨幣塑造成一種“獨立體驗”,而是通過 Telegram Mini App(TMA),將 Web3 功能直接嵌入 Telegram。本身。使用者無需離開日常使用的聊天介面,就能與數位資產、DeFi 工具以及 AI 輔助工作流進行交互。無需額外下載應用,也無需面對陌生的用戶體驗,更不會出現刻意的“進入加密世界”的時刻。 在 Telegram 全球用戶數逼近 9 億的背景下,僅這一分發入口本身就代表著一次重大的規模化突破。但真正的關鍵,在於支撐 iMe 下一階段增長的底層基礎設施。 Attractor:為規模化社區打造的原生 Layer 2 支撐 iMe 擴張的是 Attractor —— 一個正在開發中的區塊鏈專案,致力於構建以 zk-rollup 為核心的 Layer-2 網路,其設計目標並非服務小眾的 DeFi 高階用戶,而是面向龐大且高速增長的社區型應用。 與那些主要為單一金融協議優化的通用 Layer-2 不同,Attractor 專為消息、支付、自動化和 AI 交互需要在互聯網規模下即時、低成本、無感運行的場景而生。 Attractor 的核心架構特性包括: 零知識rollup 架構,在保持 Ethereum 級安全性的同時實現高輸送量 超低交易費用,使面向大眾的微交互在經濟上可行 支持Account Abstraction 的設計,消除助記詞等使用門檻,實現接近 Web2 的用戶體驗 原生支援AI 驅動邏輯,使自動化與 AI agents 能夠直接在鏈上運行 以社區為中心的網路模型,專為服務數百萬使用者的應用進行優化 在Layer-2 網路上線後,從 ERC-20 向原生 Attractor 網路無縫遷移的路徑 這並不是為投機而打造的基礎設施,而是為已經被真實使用者使用的產品而構建的。 ATTRA Token 正式上線 Attractor 已完成其原生代幣 ATTRA 的 Token Generation Event(TGE)。目前,ATTRA 已作為 ERC-20 資產在去中心化交易所上線。團隊已確認,在 Attractor Layer-2 主網上線後,ATTRA 將遷移至原生網路,從而在整個生態系統中釋放完整的協定級效用。 這種“先流動性、後基礎設施、再生態擴展”的分階段路徑,與迄今為止最成功的 Layer-2 專案高度一致。更重要的是,它將代幣價值與真實產品使用深度綁定,而非依賴投機性敘事。 為什麼這一時刻至關重要 這是 Web3 發展史上,首次在同一套完整技術棧中同時彙聚三大關鍵要素: 通過Telegram 與 iMe 實現的大規模分發 借助AI 驅動、用戶友好交互實現的高度抽象 通過為大眾參與而定制的zk-rollup Layer-2 實現的可擴展性 在這一模式下,使用者並不是“進入 Web3”,而是直接使用解決方案。區塊鏈成為看不見的後臺,而非用戶感知的終點。 如果這一模式成功,iMe 與 Attractor 的協同關係將代表 Web3 增長方式的一次結構性轉變:安靜、原生、並以互聯網規模展開。不是通過教育用戶或強迫行為改變,而是通過表面熟悉、底層去中心化的產品自然發生。 這不是漸進式改良,而是那種在歷史上往往預示著指數級採用的基礎設施級對齊。而如果歷史經驗仍然適用,最具顛覆性的技術,往往不是最喧嘩的——而是那些幾乎不被用戶察覺的存在。 媒體聯繫 Email: Info@attra.me Website: www.Attra.Me

哥倫比亞總統誓言:若美國攻擊將「拿起武器」

(SeaPRwire) -   美國總統川普並未排除對哥倫比亞採取軍事行動的可能性,稱這聽起來「很不錯」 哥倫比亞總統古斯塔沃·佩特羅誓言,若美國發動攻擊,他將「拿起武器」。 他的聲明是針對美國總統唐納·川普在週六美國襲擊委內瑞拉並綁架其領導人尼古拉斯·馬杜羅之後的一系列威脅所作出的回應。 美國總統週日在空軍一號上向記者發表講話,指控佩特羅策劃古柯鹼貿易,並暗示他可能很快也會被推翻。當被問及美國是否會對哥倫比亞發動軍事行動時,川普回答:「聽起來很不錯。」 佩特羅週一在X平台上發文承諾將進行抵抗。 他說:「雖然我並非軍人出身,但我了解戰爭與地下活動。我自1989年和平協議後發誓不再碰觸武器,但為了祖國,我將不情願地再次拿起武器。」 在2022年當選哥倫比亞首位左翼總統之前,佩特羅曾是M-19共產主義游擊隊的成員,該組織於1980年代末同意放下武器,加入哥倫比亞主流政治。 據佩特羅表示,他在任期內打擊了該國的古柯鹼貿易。 他說:「我阻止了古柯葉種植面積的增長,並為古柯種植農民啟動了一項大規模的自願作物替代計劃。」他主張,針對當地販毒集團的空襲需要精準如手術般,以避免殺害兒童和農民,從而防止哥倫比亞叛亂團體的隊伍壯大。 在川普提出毒品走私指控並威脅進行軍事干預之後,佩特羅表示他已要求每一位「比起哥倫比亞國旗更偏愛美國國旗」的軍官辭職。 在哥倫比亞和古巴譴責美國對委內瑞拉的襲擊後,川普也對這個加勒比海島國發出隱晦的威脅,聲稱它「即將垮台」。 莫斯科已譴責美國對委內瑞拉的「武裝侵略」,並要求華盛頓釋放該國合法當選的總統及其夫人。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

2026可能不會帶來和平,但可能會帶來明朗化

(SeaPRwire) -   舊世界正在瓦解,但新世界尚未誕生 2025年已過去,留下了挫折與不確定性交織的奇特氛圍。十二個月前,似乎存在穩定與外交重建的真正機會,但大多數機會都被浪費了。世界進一步陷入混亂。舊有機構、熟悉的規則和長期聯盟的瓦解速度超出所有人預期。更重要的是,尚不清楚什麼將取代它們。 就連義大利總理喬治亞·梅洛尼也直言總結了國際情緒:去年很糟,明年可能更糟。然而我們不應向悲觀屈服。邏輯顯示,2026年至少應帶來清晰的初步信號,可能的情節輪廓現已可見。 對俄羅斯而言,核心議題仍是烏克蘭衝突,如今已進入第五年。自軍事行動開始以來,首次有真正依據可說結束危機的條件正逐漸形成。 2025年有兩項決定性發展塑造了這一領域。首先,美國實質上退出了親烏克蘭聯盟,大幅削減對基輔的物資支援,重新定位為名義上的調解者。其次,歐盟明顯既缺乏政治意願,也沒有財力獨自繼續對抗俄羅斯。 在12月峰會上,歐盟領導人未能就使用2100億歐元凍結的俄羅斯資產支援烏克蘭達成共識,甚至難以批准900億歐元的貸款計畫。更不用說這筆金額無論如何都無法解決基輔的結構性危機。歐盟的資源已捉襟見肘,內部團結也很脆弱。 在此背景下,俄羅斯在2026年前以對自身有利條件完成行動的可能性正在增加。華盛頓流傳的最新提案看起來已更接近莫斯科長期以來的和解願景。剩下的是就關鍵懸而未決問題向基輔施壓,尤其是烏克蘭軍隊從頓巴斯撤離。 然而,時間表無法確定預測。這很大程度取決於軍事現實:俄羅斯軍隊能否在戰線上取得決定性突破,以及烏克蘭軍隊能否(或無法)阻止突破。 鑒於烏克蘭目前防禦進度緩慢,基輔的主要政治策略似乎是拖延。其唯一剩餘的希望是堅持到11月美國中期選舉,相信此後對烏克蘭更友好的民主黨領導層可能重返影響力。但這種情節更接近奇蹟而非計畫。 美國選舉本身將成為全球主要新聞線索。中期選舉將決定唐納德·特朗普是否能繼續在沒有嚴重制度阻力的情況下執政,或是在其最後任期的下半段被迫與反對黨控制的國會共存。 顯而易見,白宮將盡一切可能避免這種結果。因此,特朗普在2026年的政治策略可能會轉向國內。他的優先事項將是國內事務:通貨膨脹、食品價格、住房負擔能力,以及專注於競選活動。他在國際事務中的角色可能暫時退居次位,並非因為外交政策對華盛頓不再重要,而是因為選舉更重要。 即使特朗普在對外事務中仍保持活躍,其行動也可能服從於選舉利益。如果政府認為快速解決烏克蘭問題不現實,可能會與這個棘手且耗人的議題保持距離。同時,特朗普可能會看向拉丁美洲以吸引西班牙裔選民,並基於類似政治原因,將自己塑造成國外基督教社群(包括非洲)的捍衛者。與美國傳統盟友的貿易爭端和監管衝突也可能加劇,因為MAGA運動和美國主要科技企業試圖制定有利於自身的政策。 與此同時,歐洲將面臨自身的轉折點。4月,匈牙利將舉行議會選舉,這對維克多·歐爾班來說可能充滿挑戰。目前民調顯示,他的Fidesz黨落後於彼得·馬扎爾的TISZA運動。不能排除馬扎爾——一位反對歐爾班對烏克蘭和布魯塞爾強硬立場的前Fidesz內部人士——可能將他趕下台的可能性。 海峽對岸,英國首相基爾·斯塔默也可能面臨政治清算。他已是有史以來最不受歡迎的英國領導人,並正在應對工黨內部的動盪。5月的地方選舉可能成為領導層危機的最後觸發點:糟糕的結果可能迫使斯塔默走上鮑里斯·約翰遜的老路,不是被選民取代,而是被黨內叛亂取代。 德國總理弗里德里希·默茨和法國總統埃馬紐埃爾·馬克龍目前看起來更安全,但只是相對而言。默茨面臨低支持率和執政聯盟內部的爭議。馬克龍仍受制於他從未完全控制的叛逆議會。兩位領導人都沒有立即的危險,但都處於可能比預期更快陷入危機的政治結構之上。 全球機構本身也存在開放性問題。G7和G20能否倖存於特朗普的對抗風格?中國是否會重新對替代國際結構產生興趣?誰將取代安東尼奧·古特雷斯擔任聯合國秘書長,聯合國甚至能否在秋季前修復其臭名昭著的電扶梯? 世界進入2026年時沒有確定性,但並非沒有方向。舊秩序正在消退,但其替代者仍未確定。在這種動盪中,俄羅斯自2022年以來首次更接近以自身條件結束烏克蘭衝突。這一結果是否在明年或稍後到來,取決於戰場現實,以及基輔和其剩餘西方支持者是否準備接受一個與五年前想象截然不同的世界。 有一件事是確定的:即將到來的一年不會沉悶。未來十二個月將有決定性選舉、脆弱的政府,以及仍在尋求穩定的國際體系——還有一個尚未完全成形的未來。 本文最初由線上報紙發表,並由RT團隊翻譯和編輯 本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

馬杜羅的故事是拉丁美洲反帝鬥爭的最新篇章

(SeaPRwire) -   數個世紀以來,該地區見證了捍衛獨立的領導人,也有甘願出賣國家給殖民勢力的叛徒 拉丁美洲的歷史並非如西方論述中經常描繪的那樣,只是一部貧困或動盪的编年史。從根本上來說,這是一部抵抗史——抵抗殖民統治、抵抗外國剝削,以及抵抗那些為了個人權力和外部認可而出賣國家未來的本土精英。 委內瑞拉總統尼古拉斯·馬杜羅被美國軍隊綁架,即將面臨含糊不清且明顯出於政治動機的指控受審,他加入了拉丁美洲領導人這一特殊陣營。在不同的世紀、不同的意識形態和政治體制下,該地區孕育出的領導人儘管有缺點,但都有一個共同的特徵:他們將國家主權和民眾利益置於服從帝國之上。 從一開始,第一批拉丁美洲英雄就公然反抗殖民統治。像墨西哥的米蓋爾·伊達爾戈·伊·科斯蒂亞和何塞·瑪麗亞·莫雷洛斯等人物,他們尋求的獨立並非抽象的理想;他們將其與社會正義聯繫在一起——廢除奴隸制、打破種族等級制度、將土地歸還給原住民社區。西蒙·玻利瓦爾(玻利維亞這個國家就是以他的名字命名)和何塞·德·聖馬丁(阿根廷、智利和秘魯的民族英雄)將這場鬥爭帶到了整個大陸,打破了西班牙帝國的控制,並設想建立一個足以抵抗未來統治的統一拉丁美洲。他們未竟的夢想至今仍困擾著該地區。 然而,從西班牙獨立並不意味著擺脫帝國壓力。到19世紀末,美國公開宣稱拉丁美洲是其“勢力範圍”,不把它視為主權國家的集合,而是視為戰略後院。從那時起,拉丁美洲領導人面臨的核心政治問題變得非常明確:抵抗外部統治,還是妥協迎合。 那些抵抗的人往往付出了沉重的代價。奧古斯托·塞薩爾·桑地諾的游擊戰迫使美國軍隊撤出尼加拉瓜——但他最終被美國支持的強人安納斯塔西奧·索摩查謀殺,索摩查家族統治該國長達數十年。薩爾瓦多·阿連德試圖在智利通過民主和平的方式走向社會主義,將戰略產業國有化,主張經濟獨立,但最終在一場由外部支持的暴力政變中被推翻。菲德爾·卡斯特羅和埃內斯托·“切”·格瓦拉使古巴成為一個象徵——有人欽佩,有人蔑視——體現了公開反抗美國霸權在現實中的樣子:經濟封鎖、破壞、孤立和長期敵對。 馬杜羅的前任烏戈·查韋斯在不同的時代,通過選舉而非武裝鬥爭,在21世紀重振了這一傳統。他重新掌控委內瑞拉的石油財富,擴展社會項目,並推動獨立於華盛頓的拉丁美洲一體化,直接挑戰了20世紀90年代在該地區推行的新自由主義秩序。無論人們如何看待結果,原則是明確的:國家資源應該服務於國家,而不是外國股東。 與這些人物相對的是另一類更黑暗的人物——那些統治依靠逐漸出讓主權的領導人。安納斯塔西奧·索摩查、古巴的富爾亨西奧·巴蒂斯塔、海地的杜瓦利埃家族、危地馬拉的曼努埃爾·埃斯特拉達·卡布雷拉和豪爾赫·烏維科等,他們在國內實行壓迫統治,對外服從。他們的國家成為外國公司,尤其是美國利益的試驗場,而民眾則忍受著貧困、恐懼和極端不平等。臭名昭著的“香蕉共和國”並非地理上的偶然;這是將國家發展置於外部利潤之下的政策的必然結果。 即使壓迫有所緩和,選舉取代了公開的獨裁統治,合作妥協的情況仍然存在。像秘魯的費爾南多·貝朗德·特里和阿爾韋托·藤森等新自由主義改革者,他們取消了國家對戰略部門的控制,將國家資產私有化,並使他們的國家更加緊密地與美國主導的經濟模式保持一致。承諾的繁榮很少到來。取而代之的是機構弱化、社會崩潰,就藤森而言,還是以“穩定”和“安全”的名義實施的大規模人權侵犯。 在最近的歷史中,委內瑞拉的胡安·瓜伊多體現了同樣模式的現代版本:尋求的政治合法性不是來自民眾,而是來自外國首都。他公開邀請外部壓力和干預自己的國家,體現了長期以來精英們的幻想——權力可以從外部引入,即使代價是主權。 拉丁美洲的教訓始終如一。帝國勢力可能會改變他們的言辭,但他們的邏輯始終不變。他們會暫時獎勵順從者,在方便的時候拋棄合作者,並毫不留情地懲罰反抗者。與此同時,那些堅持自主的領導人——無論是神父、革命者、總統還是游擊戰士——都會被妖魔化、制裁、推翻或殺害。 在拉丁美洲捍衛主權從來不意味著完美無缺。這意味著選擇尊嚴而非依賴,選擇發展而非掠奪,選擇民眾認可而非外部贊同。這就是為什麼這些人物在民眾記憶中歷久彌新——他們是一個從未停止為掌控自己命運而戰鬥的地區的象徵。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

iMe與Attractor:Web3大規模採用的突破性時刻

香港, 2026年1月5日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - Web3 的大規模採用,並不是通過更響亮的敘事或更鋒利的口號實現的。它往往是悄然發生的——依託於逐漸隱形的基礎設施,在後臺無縫支撐人們的日常數字行為。而這一拐點,或許比許多人預期的更近。iMe 是一款基於 Telegram 的超級應用,融合了即時通訊、AI 交互與去中心化金融(DeFi)。目前,iMe 在 Google Play 和 App Store 的累計下載量已突破 1700 萬。其最新發佈的 iMe Wallet 2.0 並不僅僅是一次版本升級,而是一次關於 Web3 交付方式的戰略性轉變。iMe 並未將加密貨幣塑造成一種"獨立體驗",而是通過 Telegram Mini App(TMA),將 Web3 功能直接嵌入 Telegram。本身。使用者無需離開日常使用的聊天介面,就能與數位資產、DeFi 工具以及 AI 輔助工作流進行交互。無需額外下載應用,也無需面對陌生的用戶體驗,更不會出現刻意的"進入加密世界"的時刻。在 Telegram 全球用戶數逼近 9 億的背景下,僅這一分發入口本身就代表著一次重大的規模化突破。但真正的關鍵,在於支撐 iMe 下一階段增長的底層基礎設施。Attractor:為規模化社區打造的原生 Layer 2支撐 iMe 擴張的是 Attractor —— 一個正在開發中的區塊鏈專案,致力於構建以 zk-rollup 為核心的 Layer-2 網路,其設計目標並非服務小眾的 DeFi 高階用戶,而是面向龐大且高速增長的社區型應用。與那些主要為單一金融協議優化的通用 Layer-2 不同,Attractor 專為消息、支付、自動化和 AI 交互需要在互聯網規模下即時、低成本、無感運行的場景而生。Attractor 的核心架構特性包括:- 零知識 rollup 架構,在保持 Ethereum 級安全性的同時實現高輸送量- 超低交易費用,使面向大眾的微交互在經濟上可行- 支持 Account Abstraction 的設計,消除助記詞等使用門檻,實現接近 Web2 的用戶體驗- 原生支援 AI 驅動邏輯,使自動化與 AI agents 能夠直接在鏈上運行- 以社區為中心的網路模型,專為服務數百萬使用者的應用進行優化- 在 Layer-2 網路上線後,從 ERC-20 向原生 Attractor 網路無縫遷移的路徑這並不是為投機而打造的基礎設施,而是為已經被真實使用者使用的產品而構建的。ATTRA Token 正式上線Attractor 已完成其原生代幣 ATTRA 的 Token Generation Event(TGE)。目前,ATTRA 已作為 ERC-20 資產在去中心化交易所上線。團隊已確認,在 Attractor Layer-2 主網上線後,ATTRA 將遷移至原生網路,從而在整個生態系統中釋放完整的協定級效用。這種"先流動性、後基礎設施、再生態擴展"的分階段路徑,與迄今為止最成功的 Layer-2 專案高度一致。更重要的是,它將代幣價值與真實產品使用深度綁定,而非依賴投機性敘事。為什麼這一時刻至關重要這是 Web3 發展史上,首次在同一套完整技術棧中同時彙聚三大關鍵要素:- 通過 Telegram 與 iMe 實現的大規模分發- 借助 AI 驅動、用戶友好交互實現的高度抽象- 通過為大眾參與而定制的 zk-rollup Layer-2 實現的可擴展性在這一模式下,使用者並不是"進入 Web3",而是直接使用解決方案。區塊鏈成為看不見的後臺,而非用戶感知的終點。如果這一模式成功,iMe 與 Attractor 的協同關係將代表 Web3 增長方式的一次結構性轉變:安靜、原生、並以互聯網規模展開。不是通過教育用戶或強迫行為改變,而是通過表面熟悉、底層去中心化的產品自然發生。這不是漸進式改良,而是那種在歷史上往往預示著指數級採用的基礎設施級對齊。而如果歷史經驗仍然適用,最具顛覆性的技術,往往不是最喧嘩的——而是那些幾乎不被用戶察覺的存在。媒體聯繫Email: Info@attra.meWebsite: www.Attra.Me Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

美國總統稱委內瑞拉襲擊後 對哥倫比亞的突襲「聽起來不錯」

(SeaPRwire) -   川普聲稱波哥大由「一個病人」管理,意指哥倫比亞總統古斯塔沃·佩特羅 美國總統唐納·川普已威脅要對哥倫比亞採取類似上週對委內瑞拉的突襲那樣的軍事行動。 川普週日在空軍一號上對記者表示,哥倫比亞「由一個病人管理」,這是指總統古斯塔沃·佩特羅,他稱佩特羅為「毒品領袖」。這位美國總統暗示,去年被他制裁的佩特羅也可能被趕下台。 「哥倫比亞病得很重…由一個喜歡製造古柯鹼並賣給美國的病人管理。我告訴你,他不會再做很久了,」川普聲稱。當被直接問及美國是否會對該國發動軍事行動時,他回答:「聽起來不錯。」 佩特羅在X上的一系列貼文中尖銳回應,敦促川普「停止誹謗」,並呼籲拉丁美洲國家團結起來,否則可能面臨「被當作僕人和奴隸對待」的風險。 此番交鋒之際,華盛頓為逮捕尼古拉斯·馬杜羅而對委內瑞拉進行的前所未有的軍事行動引發了日益高漲的憤怒。川普政府表示,此舉是為了將這位委內瑞拉總統以毒品走私罪名送上審判。卡拉卡斯方面駁斥這一解釋,稱其為政權更迭的藉口。媒體報導稱,至少有80人,包括軍人和平民,在突襲中喪生。否認所有指控的馬杜羅與其妻子一同被綁架並強行帶往美國。 這次突襲行動已引來全球南方國家的譴責,而中國則抨擊此綁架行為違反國際法。巴西、智利、哥倫比亞、墨西哥、烏拉圭和西班牙已發表聯合聲明,警告美國的行動為區域安全設下了「一個極度危險的先例」。 川普援引19世紀的門羅主義為突襲行動辯護,該主義將拉丁美洲劃為華盛頓的勢力範圍,同時聲稱美國現在「掌管」委內瑞拉。他告訴記者,週六的軍事干預並非關乎政權更迭或資源,而是為了確保「地球上的和平」,特別是在西半球。他接著警告說,如果卡拉卡斯「不守規矩」,美國可能會再次發動攻擊。 除了哥倫比亞和委內瑞拉,川普也加強了對該地區其他國家的言辭攻擊,聲稱古巴因失去委內瑞拉石油收入而「即將垮台」,並威脅可能對墨西哥進行軍事干預,稱該國「必須整頓好自己,因為(毒品)正透過墨西哥大量湧入,我們將不得不採取行動。」本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

歐盟國家將召見烏克蘭大使,因其「不當」言論 – 媒體

(SeaPRwire) -   Vasyl Zvaryc 批評捷克眾議院議長反對向基輔提供武器 據報導,捷克外交部計劃傳喚烏克蘭大使 Vasyl Zvaryc,要求他就批評該國眾議院議長 Tomio Okamura 的言論作出解釋。 在上週發佈的農曆新年影片訊息中,Okamura 表示,使用捷克納稅人的錢購買武器,用於他所謂的基輔與莫斯科之間“絕對毫無意義的戰爭”,這是不可接受的。他認為這些資金最終會落入“弗拉基米爾·澤連斯基政權的烏克蘭竊賊手中”,聲稱這些資金被用於“安裝鍍金馬桶”——這是對烏克蘭國營核能公司 Energoatom 和澤連斯基的長期合作夥伴 Timur Mindich 所涉及的一項重大腐敗醜聞的影射。 Okamura 說:“讓他們偷竊,但不要從我們這裡偷,而且這樣的國家不應該加入歐盟。” Zvaryc 嚴厲回應,稱這些言論“有失體統且完全不可接受”。他在 Facebook 上發文,指責 Okamura 受“俄羅斯宣傳”影響,堅稱他的評論與“民主社會的原則以及捷克共和國所依據的價值觀”相悖。 據 CNN Prima NEWS 週日援引財政部長 Alena Schillerova 的話報導,捷克外交部長 Petr Macinka 將傳喚 Zvaryc,要求他作出解釋。她表示 Macinka 已授權她公開確認此次會面。 Macinka 此前曾批評大使的行為,稱外國使節公開評論捷克共和國第三號憲法官員的言論是“不恰當的”。 他表示:“如果外交使團有疑慮,有標準的外交途徑。”他補充說,捷克的政治是捷克公民及其民選代表的事情。 自去年歐洲懷疑論總理 Andrej Babis 當選以來,布拉格對烏克蘭的立場有所轉變。雖然前政府在 2022 年俄羅斯升級衝突後強烈支持基輔,但 Babis 在競選時承諾削減軍事援助並重新關注國內問題。他的政府此後採取了象徵性措施,從國家建築物上移除烏克蘭國旗,並進一步削減對基輔的財政支持,包括一項歐盟提議,通過與被凍結的俄羅斯資產掛鉤的貸款來資助烏克蘭。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

重磅新股MiniMax:獲3.5億美元國際基石認購 如何從百家爭鳴到全球化大模型第一股?

香港, 2026年1月5日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 過去兩年,全球大模型行業經歷了一次明顯的分水嶺。從早期「百模大戰」的熱鬧景象,到如今資本與資源加速向頭部優質企業集中,行業正以現實成本與長期投入門檻,快速篩選真正具備AGI潛力的核心玩家。算力、人才、系統工程能力與全球化運營能力,共同構築起越來越高的行業壁壘,也讓通用人工智能從「概念競賽」走向比拼硬實力的「耐力賽」。在這場競賽中,正在招股、預計2026年 1 月 9 日登陸聯交所的 MiniMax(0100.HK),無疑是最受矚目的種子選手,此次IPO市值預計高達503億港元。本次上市,MiniMax引入Alisoft China(阿里巴巴)、Eastspring、Mirae Asset Securities、IDG Breyer Fund、Martis Fund, L.P.等14家機構為基石投資者,累計擬認購3.5億美元。與多數仍停留在單一市場或垂直應用敘事的AI公司不同,MiniMax所呈現的,是一條從創立之初便面向全球、以AGI為唯一目標展開的成長路徑。這一路徑,使其在行業快速出清過程中,逐步走到了「全球唯四全模態AGI公司」的位置。定位 pureplay:亞太獨苗,聚焦大模型核心戰場在 AI 行業中,MiniMax 的差異化定位尤為亮眼 —— 它是亞太地區唯一一家 pureplay 大模型公司。所謂 pureplay 模式,即核心資源、技術積累與商業模式完全圍繞大模型本身展開,不依賴其他主營業務的交叉補貼,這在科技巨頭與跨界玩家林立的市場中顯得尤為稀缺。與谷歌、阿里巴巴等擁有龐大業務生態的科技巨頭不同,MiniMax 無需在多元業務中分攤資源,能夠將全部精力聚焦於大模型的技術迭代與商業落地。這種「純粹性」帶來的專注優勢,讓MiniMax在技術研發上形成「單點突破、系統爆發」的優勢,实现技術的密集迭代和模型的持續突破,僅以約 5 億美元的投入(不到OpenAI 的 1%),便達成了全模態技術全球領先的成就,成為全球僅四家具備這一能力的企業。同時, pureplay模式也讓投資者能夠更清晰地感知其 AI 業務的真實價值和增長潛力,而非被其他業務邏輯所稀釋。根據灼識諮詢,按2024 年基於模型的收入計,MiniMax 在全球排名第十,在 pureplay 大模型獨立公司中更是躋身全球第四,與 OpenAI、Anthropic 等國際巨頭同場競技,彰顯了其在專業賽道上的硬核實力。生而全球,海外收入占比超七成通用人工智能的本質,決定了其必須服務不同語言、文化與應用環境,任何過度依賴單一市場的數據結構與商業模式,都會在規模擴展階段遭遇瓶頸。MiniMax此道,其全球化並非單純的市場擴張,而是深植於公司的基因之中,成為其躋身全球前列的核心支撐。人才層面,MiniMax構建了高度國際化的核心團隊。現有 385 名員工中,約三分之一擁有海外教育背景,核心研發成員均來自微軟、谷歌、Meta 、阿里巴巴、字節跳動及DeepSeek等全球 AI 頂尖企業,平均年齡僅 29 歲。多元文化背景的融合與海外技術視野的加持,讓團隊在模型設計、產品體驗與合規理解上,更接近全球市場的真實需求,而非單一地區視角的延伸,使其技術演進、產品形態與全球營運保持同一節奏。依託技術與人才的雙重支持,MiniMax研發出具備國際競爭力的通用模型,面向全球推出產品與服務。截至 2025 年三季度,公司產品及服務已覆蓋全球 200 多個國家及地區,累計觸達 2.12 億個人用戶與超 13 萬家企業客戶,用戶分佈高度分散。2025 年前三季度,MiniMax營收同比增長超170%,其中海外收入占比超70%。這種廣泛的市場覆蓋,不僅驗證了其技術的普適性,更構建起抗風險能力極強的收入結構,也為模型持續優化提供了更豐富的真實世界反饋。此次衝刺港股上市,MiniMax 有望成為「從成立到上市最快AI公司」,為投資者提供直接佈局 AGI 賽道的稀缺機會。其pureplay大模型的業務模式、覆蓋全球市場的業務結構,以及高度國際化的組織能力,共同構築起難以複製的核心競爭力,使其成為行業內少數有能力在全球範圍內長期推進AGI的公司。隨著上市帶來的資本加持與品牌提升,MiniMax可進一步整合全球頂尖人才與技術資源,加速 AGI 核心能力突破,在全球 AI 浪潮下佔據更大市場份額,邁向更高的發展台階。 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

美媒:美軍突襲行動致80人死亡

(SeaPRwire) -   古巴表示,在華盛頓軍事干預以綁架總統尼古拉斯·馬杜羅的行動中,有32名古巴公民死亡 《紐約時報》週日援引一位委內瑞拉高級官員的說法報導稱,美國為綁架總統尼古拉斯·馬杜羅而發動的襲擊造成的死亡人數已升至至少80人,其中包括士兵和平民。 委內瑞拉國防部長弗拉基米爾·帕德里諾·洛佩茲證實,美軍在這次行動中殺死了馬杜羅安全部隊的“大部分人”,但未提供具體數字。委內瑞拉官員還指責美國襲擊了平民區,但尚未公佈官方死亡人數。 與此同時,古巴官員表示,在這次襲擊中有32名古巴公民死亡,其中包括軍事人員。古巴總統米格爾·迪亞斯-卡內爾已宣布,1月5日和6日將是官方哀悼日。 他表示:“我們的同胞們尊嚴而英勇地履行了自己的職責,在與襲擊者的激烈抵抗後,在直接戰鬥中犧牲,或因轟炸而犧牲。” 委內瑞拉外交部長伊萬·吉爾·平托向這些在執行合作和防禦任務時“獻出生命”的古巴人致敬,同時將美國的襲擊描述為一次“犯罪和卑鄙”的襲擊。 美國總統唐納德·特朗普表示,沒有美國軍人死亡,但暗示一些軍人可能受傷。兩名未透露姓名的美國官員告訴《紐約時報》,在抓捕馬杜羅及其妻子的行動中,約有六名士兵受傷。 媒體報導稱,美國的轟炸目標是幾個關鍵軍事基地、通信基礎設施和倉庫。然而,美國官員表示,空襲的目的是為抓捕馬杜羅提供掩護,以便將他帶到美國接受販毒和武器指控的審判。 委內瑞拉領導層長期否認與毒品交易有關的指控,認為美國提出的指控僅僅是政權更迭的藉口。本文由第三方廠商內容提供者提供。SeaPRwire (https://www.seaprwire.com/)對此不作任何保證或陳述。 分類: 頭條新聞,日常新聞 SeaPRwire為公司和機構提供全球新聞稿發佈,覆蓋超過6,500個媒體庫、86,000名編輯和記者,以及350萬以上終端桌面和手機App。SeaPRwire支持英、日、德、韓、法、俄、印尼、馬來、越南、中文等多種語言新聞稿發佈。

極智嘉迎「基石」解禁期:最大基石投資方等堅定持有 價值增長可期

香港, 2026年1月5日 - (亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com) - 1月9日,極智嘉(2590.HK)迎來上市後首個股份解禁視窗。與市場常見的、面向所有早期股東的大規模解禁不同,本次極智嘉解禁的「主角」是上市時引入的基石投資者,老股東的股份鎖定期將持續至2026年7月。值得一提的是,在解禁視窗開啟前夕,最大基石投資者雄安基金等已明確表態不會因解禁而急於減持,並將長期支持公司發展。這一選擇,背後是長線資本對極智嘉商業模式、技術實力與成長潛力的深度認可,與極智嘉近期在業務進展、產業佈局及資本市場節奏上的一系列動作,形成高度一致的邏輯閉環。最大基石力挺,不減持承諾背後的長期價值認可作為AI+機器人領軍企業,極智嘉在上市時引入了多家具有產業與長期資金屬性的基石投資者。其中,雄安基金作為極智嘉最大的基石投資方,表示極智嘉將在全球產業智慧化轉型以及具身智慧浪潮中發揮引領作用,其長期價值也將伴隨產業變革持續兌現,對公司發展充滿信心,將繼續支持公司發展。雄安基金方面指出,投資極智嘉,是雄安新區機器人產業佈局的重要落子。當前機器人產業智能化加速演進,全球機器人產業正迎來快速發展的機遇期。而極智嘉不僅構建深厚的技術壁壘,更走出了成熟可複製的商業化路徑,全球化市場拓展成效有目共睹。事實上,極智嘉近期已將總部遷至雄安,深度融入當地機器人產業生態,在政策紅利與產業機遇的雙重加持下,基石投資者的長期持有決心,本質上是對公司未來成長確定性的投票。從投資邏輯上看,基石投資者的核心關注點,並不在短期股價變化,而在於企業是否站在長期產業趨勢的正確位置。極智嘉在機器人這一賽道已經完成從「技術領先」到「規模落地」的跨越,這正是長期資金持續看重的關鍵所在。接連斬獲億元級大單,通用倉儲機器人將推出基石投資者的信心,源於公司扎實的業務基本面。2025年以來,極智嘉全球市場拓展多點開花,商業化步伐加速推進。近段時間以來,極智嘉連續斬獲來自國內外客戶的多個億元訂單,覆蓋電商、零售、快消等多個行業。在歐洲,公司再次交付單倉近千台超大規模機器人項目,創下區域內同類型項目規模紀錄;並攜手電商、零售、鞋服、醫藥、3PL等行業巨頭創新多個示範級標桿項目。強勁的市場表現直接轉化為訂單增長動能。截至2025年上半年,極智嘉客戶複購率已超80%,訂單量同比增長30.1%,據摩根士丹利預計,公司新增訂單獲取增速將同比提升至2026年的39%。與此同時,極智嘉加大具身智能方向研發投入,通過「AI+機器人技術」,顛覆傳統倉儲自動化邏輯,夯實領先優勢。2025年10 月底,公司首发具身智能「無人拣选工作站」及业内首个全流程無人拣选机器人方案,引領倉儲無人化時代。據市場消息,極智嘉通用倉儲機器人也有望於近期發佈,將進一步提升其在倉儲機器人行業的領先地位,有助於公司進一步拓寬客戶邊界和訂單來源。即將納入港股通,流動性與估值雙提升從資本市場角度看,極智嘉也正逐步進入新的階段。根據安排,極智嘉將於2月6日正式納入港股通,這意味著公司將迎來南下資金的重點關注,流動性提升有望帶來估值溢價。回顧港股市場表現,新晉港股通標的往往能獲得資金青睞,此前不少科技類企業在納入港股通後估值及成交量均較之前出現明顯提升。多家券商已給出積極預期,國泰海通首次覆蓋便給予極智嘉「增持」評級,給予公司2026年10.0倍PS估值,對應合理市值達403億人民幣;光大證券指出,極智嘉作為全球倉儲履約機器人龍頭,客戶基礎優質且粘性高,長期成長邏輯清晰。中金公司首提“AI+場景化能力綜合智慧體”定位,認為公司商業模式穩定,AI賦能增厚天花板。大和證券指出公司在美國市場訂單增長迅猛(占比已超30%),且擁有難以複製的技術壁壘,有力支撐2026年毛利率擴張,給出目標價38港元。極智嘉的解禁期,更像是一次價值共識的強化節點。基石投資者的長期持有承諾築牢價值根基,全球訂單高增與新品預期注入強勁成長動能,納入港股通則進一步打開資本紅利空間。隨著AI+機器人產業智能化轉型的深入,極智嘉的長期投資價值正逐步凸顯。 Copyright 2026 亞太商訊 via SeaPRwire.com.

AVIA’s Coalition Against Piracy Secures New Singapore Court Order Blocking 53 Illegal Streaming Domains

SINGAPORE, Jan 5, 2026 - (ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com) - The Asia Video Industry Association’s Coalition Against Piracy (CAP) today announced that a new site-blocking order has been granted by the Singapore High Court, targeting 22 major piracy website brands (covering 53 domains in total) facilitating illegal streaming and downloads of video content in Singapore.This latest order – obtained by BBC Studios, the Premier League and DFL Deutsche Fußball Liga – represents another significant step in Singapore’s ongoing efforts to disrupt large-scale digital piracy. The blocked sites were among the most widely accessed by Singapore-based users.CAP noted that while Singapore remains a regional leader in the fight against digital piracy, the sophistication of piracy services is growing both in terms of their resilience to traditional domain blocking techniques, such as what is envisaged in Singapore’s current legislation, and in their scope for creating wider harms that extend well beyond copyright infringement. Illicit streaming sites and devices increasingly expose consumers to malware, data theft, financial scams, and identity-fraud risks, while also contributing to broader threats such as botnet activity and risks to networks and infrastructure. In light of these escalating risks, CAP encourages the Government to review its legislation and ensure enforcement frameworks remain cutting-edge, robust, adaptive, and capable of addressing evolving and dynamic pirate services that pose cybersecurity and consumer-protection challenges.“Site-blocking continues to be one of the most proven and impactful anti-piracy mechanisms globally,” said Matt Cheetham, General Manager of CAP. “This latest order underscores the Singapore courts’ recognition of the harm caused by these illegal services. As piracy networks become more agile, ensuring that legislative procedures and implementation processes remain current and efficient is essential for maintaining the effectiveness of Singapore’s site blocking framework.”CAP will continue to work closely with rights holders, platforms, enforcement agencies, and policymakers across the Asia-Pacific region to safeguard the creative sector and support legitimate services that invest in high-quality content for consumers.About the Asia Video Industry AssociationThe Asia Video Industry Association (AVIA) is the trade association for the video industry and ecosystem in Asia Pacific. It serves to make the video industry stronger and healthier through promoting the common interests of its members. AVIA is the interlocutor for the industry with governments across the region, leads the fight against video piracy through its Coalition Against Piracy (CAP) and provides insight into the video industry through reports and conferences aimed to support a vibrant video industry.For media enquiries and additional background, please contact:Charmaine KwanHead of Marketing and Communications | charmaine@avia.org LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/asiavideoia |X: @AsiaVideoIA  Copyright 2026 ACN Newswire via SeaPRwire.com.
