Young Entertainment Professionals is an online community of more than 10,000 early-career professionals in Hollywood. Young people in the entertainment industry vented that their career growth was stymied by forces outside of their control. At YEP events, Romero added, "there's always people that come up to me who are like, 'When I moved to LA, I didn't know anybody.' In 2023, a Netflix creative assistant founded the monthly newsletter The Hollywood Assistant, telling BI that newcomers have "no blueprint" for how to chart a course to steady employment and success. "They can help through the hard times that we have been having in the industry," Romero concluded.

The Germans suffered a 3-2 loss to Turkey on Saturday in Nagelsmann's first home game since taking over in September. "It is about being convinced of our path and then going out and playing positive games and then going out and playing a positive (Euro) tournament," Nagelsmann told a press conference. "It is always better to win and it gets a bit turbulent when you lose, that's clear," Nagelsmann said. Nagelsmann was more concerned about going four months without a team training camp ahead of a major tournament. "Four months without (a Germany) training session is a bit much but we will have to manage," he said.

In electric vehicle motors, rapidly shifting magnetic fields spin a rotor made with magnets that contain “rare Earth minerals” such as terbium and dysprosium. China accounts for a large percentage of the world’s rare Earth minerals supply, according to the United States Geological Survey. And among those minerals used for EV motor magnets, China is responsible for about 90%, according to Niron. The technology could also make EV motors less expensive, he said, but declined to say by what percentage. Daniels would not say when GM expects to begin manufacturing EV motors using the new magnet technology.
