The Giants were a no-show against the Bucs after releasing quarterback Daniel JonesNov. 25—Farmland located near already existing industries on the northeast side of town and along the Beltline Road has been rezoned to a light industrial classification by the Newton City Council, despite some officials and residents arguing the ground would be better suited for future residential developments. Two council members — Joel Mills and Stacy Simbro — sided with neighbors who did not want to see a light industrial development near their homes. For the past three meetings, neighbors complained the rezone would disturb their quiet country life, cause drainage issues on their properties and increase traffic. "My same concerns hold true to the rezoning," said Tammy Stock, a neighbor who lives just south of the parcel. "I just ask you guys to reconsider it." Mike Kaldenburg, a Newton resident, agreed with Stock and encouraged the city council to decline this rezone. Kaldenburg said he looks at the city and its growth trends, and, to him, the growth is on the eastern side of Newton. Rezoning it to light industrial, he argued, would hinder that natural growth. "I would strongly encourage you to rethink this carefully," Kaldenburg said. Simbro's decision to vote against the rezone was largely due to the future land use maps in the city's comprehensive plan. The maps envisioned the property would be used for residential development projects. However, council member Randy Ervin would argue the plan is a living document prone to changes. Regardless, Simbro reasoned residential land is not abundant in the city, and he was very much opposed to action that would contradict the vision in Newton's comprehensive plan. Mills has called the rezone and the potential business that would operate on the land a "short-term gain" for the city. If the development should fail, Mills argued it would add yet another building to the city's stock of "idle and empty" buildings. Frank Liebl, executive director of Newton Development Corporation, addressed Mills' claims made at the previous meeting, saying that is not really the case, especially for this scenario. "We have nothing that is going to fit this size," Liebl said. "I don't count the TPI building as being vacant because they are going to start back up. Most of the space at Plant 2 is filled. The only other industrial building I can think of is of course the Gates Corporation building just became available." Liebl said when a company is looking at developing in a community, they try to find what kind of space is available. Oftentimes they contact the city and the county, who then coordinate with their economic development groups. Liebl said sometimes they want to buy and sometimes they want to lease. "In this case, they want to buy," Liebl said. "So that, again, limits what we can do." Still, Mills argued no one approached the city council saying they wanted this rezone, and by extension this development, to happen. Yet at a past meeting Brett Doerring revealed he is one of four partners who own the land, and he provided some insight without revealing exactly what the project would be if fully approved. Doerring said it would not be a manufacturing company; it would be light assembly with primarily warehousing. The property is located near the 2300 to 2400 blocks of North 19th Avenue East. It was purchased a number of years ago as a speculative investment knowing it was adjacent to the industrial park and the Beltline Road, which allows easy access to Interstate 80 since it leads directly to Iowa Speedway Drive. To Doerring, the land was a clear extension to the industrial park. Other council members agreed. Council member Melissa Dalton revealed at one point she almost bought the property owned by the Dunsmoor family, which has also opposed the rezone. Dalton said she backed off because of the industrial growth. "With the industrial park where it is now, with how the land is along there with the Beltline Road and with there being businesses already being out towards the railway, we kind of expected it to leak over into that area," Dalton said. "So we chose not to purchase that." Richard Boggess reiterated the unnamed company has not signed a deal to move forward with the development of this land. He also mentioned the company had chosen another site but abandoned it due to the topography and the costs to do dirt work. The property up for rezoning, while hilly, is manageable. But Boggess noted the property would most definitely need retention ponds, which the company realizes too. Bruce Showalter, executive director of Newton Housing Development Corporation, was asked by council member Steve Mullan to speak at the rezone discussion. Although he was not speaking in favor or against the rezone or on behalf of NHDC, Showalter provided housing information. He noted there is lots of land between the property and Berg Middle School, including the housing development Arbor Estates. There are currently about 140 lots left in Arbor Estates that have not been sold. The city has been averaging about 12 new houses a year since it started its $10,000 incentive program. "Even at that rate, just Arbor Estates alone would take 10 years to develop," he said. "The best year we had was 19 houses — I'll round it up to 20 house — were developed. So if you take that, then you're at seven years before Arbor Estates is totally sold out." Showalter said another 90 acres of farmland is also nearby the property in question. To develop that at three houses per acre, it could provide up to 270 new lots. Showalter suggested it would take considerable time to develop enough residential properties to get close to this land. "This is privately owned land," he said. "Just because we want to build houses there doesn't mean they're going to sell it to us to build houses there." Ervin reasoned council was recommended by staff and by the planning and zoning commission to approve the rezone. The commission, he said, found no problem with moving forward with the rezoning and did their due diligence before making their recommendation to the city council. "If we're going to have boards like this that bring us information and suggestions, I think we need to look at that," Ervin said. "By voting against this, it's going to tarnish that board. And I don't like that. They do a good job. So, in my opinion, I think it's gotta be a yes vote for Newton." The city council would go on to vote 4-2 to approve the third consideration of the rezone, and then 4-2 again to adopt the rezone.

Both teams are in the "Power" group of the eight-team event. All eight teams are receiving $1 million for their name, image and likeness (NIL) collectives, but placing fourth or higher in the tourney in order will net them anywhere from $1.1 million to $1.5 million. The Aggies (4-1) opened the season with a three-point loss at UCF, but since then have won four straight, all in convincing fashion. Texas A&M upset then-No. 21 Ohio State 78-64 on Nov. 15 at home in College Station, Texas. Then the Aggies crushed Southern 71-54 last Wednesday, when Wade Taylor IV led the way with 17 points and six assists. All of Texas A&M's wins have been by double digits. The Aggies and Ducks (5-0) have split the two previous meetings against each other. Until March 2022 in an NIT second-round game, they had not met since the 1970-71 season. Texas A&M tied the overall series with a 75-60 win at home in 2022. The only player on the Ducks' current roster who played in that game was 7-foot senior Nate Bittle, who has been one of Oregon's best players so far this season. Bittle's 16.2 points and 10.2 rebounds per game lead the Ducks so far this season, and the big man also averages two blocked shots per game. Texas A&M guard Zhuric Phelps, a transfer from SMU, leads the Aggies in scoring at 16 points per game. Taylor adds 14 points per game. The Aggies could be the best defensive team the Ducks will have seen this season. A&M is allowing teams to shoot only 36.6 percent in games. Head coach Buzz Williams and his staff are hoping the team gets better at taking charges on defense, as the Aggies have just one so far this season. "I guess the thing that you work on most is verticality around the rim," Texas A&M assistant coach Steve Roccaforte told KBTX television. "‘Hey, once you get there, if you try and take a charge, it's going to be a block. Just jump as high as you can, stay vertical, try to go chest-to-chest. Make it a hard shot.'" Oregon is coming off a 78-75 win at Oregon State, the Ducks' first road game of the season. The Ducks trailed by 10 points at halftime but, as they have in several games this season, they found a rhythm on offense in the second half and came up with a comeback win. Bittle's 23 points and 14 rebounds led the way. Jackson Shelstad had 15 points and Jadrian Tracey and Keeshawn Barthelemy both added 10. "We started rebounding the ball a little better. Nate really got it going inside and our guys got him the ball," Oregon head coach Dana Altman told the school's athletics website. "He had a heck of a game." --Field Level MediaThe Rattlers finally notched their first win in the Snake Pit after two one possession home games, defeating the previously undefeated Cornerstone Christian Warriors 66-56. The Rattlers improved to 7-7 overall with senior forward Donovan Riddick leading the team in scoring with 20 followed by senior forward Josiah Hollman with 19 and senior point guard Cash Good with 18. “We knew what we had to do,” Riddick said. “We executed exactly how our coach wanted us to do. We needed to pass and move the ball around. We took the initiative to go about the game plan and we executed.”UMass football: Minutemen impressive early against SEC power Georgia, ultimately falling 59-21

Despite a promising opening from the hosts, Tomas Soucek headed West Ham in front before Aaron Wan-Bissaka’s first goal for the club after the break wrapped up victory. Lopetegui was pleased with his side’s display following a “tough match”. He said: “I am happy for the three points and am very happy against a good team like Newcastle, who have good players and a fantastic coach. “I think today was a tough match and we were able to compete as a team. “I think we deserved to win. Today they had many moments in the first half, but I think the second half we deserved to win and we are happy because you have to do these kind of matches against this type of team if you want to overcome them.” Newcastle started brightly and had plenty of chances in the first half especially, but the visitors responded after the break by retaining possession well. The win eases the pressure on Lopetegui, whose West Ham side face Arsenal on Saturday, and he believes the victory is an important feeling for his players. He said: “I think the only thing that is under our control is to play football, to improve, to defend well, to convince the players we are able to do better. “Today we did, but I think the only thing we can do is to do the things that are under our control, not today but every day. “So we had to keep with this mentality, but above all let me say we are happy for the players because they need this kind of feeling as a team to believe that we are able to do well as a team, to put the best for each player of the team.” Newcastle boss Eddie Howe admitted defeat was a missed opportunity for his side. The Magpies missed a series of chances in the first half, including efforts from Joe Willock and Sean Longstaff, before Alexander Isak blasted a chance off target. Anthony Gordon also rolled an effort just wide of the post after the break and Isak headed wide of goal. Three points could have seen Newcastle move into the top six and Howe admitted his side need to learn from the match. “Yes, massive because the league is so tight that a couple of wins and the whole picture looks very different,” Howe said. “We’ll kick ourselves tonight because we knew the opportunity we had, a home game, Monday night, a great moment for us potentially in our season, so we have to learn from that and come back stronger.”

The New York Giants are an absolute mess currently, as they are fresh off benching, then releasing, their supposed quarterback of the future in Daniel Jones. And just a day after the latter move was made, it looks like the team has already set their sights on a potential new quarterback of the future in Miami Hurricanes stud Cam Ward. With a 2-8 record, which is the worst in the league, and a roster that doesn't seem intent on winning anytime soon, the Giants appear set for a top five pick in the 2025 NFL Draft, with the potential to have the No. 1 overall pick if things continue going south for them. Jones is no longer in the picture after his release, and while Tommy DeVito and Drew Lock are currently holding down the fort at quarterback, they aren't the long term answer at the position. That led to New York sending scouts to the Hurricanes Week 12 win over Wake Forest, with reports stating that had a "key focus" on Ward. "The Giants, along with several other NFL teams, attended the Miami vs Wake Forest game today," Jordan Schultz of Fox Sports reported on Saturday night. "Hurricanes QB Cam Ward, a projected top-five pick, was a key focus." The #Giants , along with several other NFL teams, attended the Miami vs Wake Forest game today. Hurricanes QB Cam Ward, a projected top-five pick, was a key focus. pic.twitter.com/yizcGYUsY2 While there's still a long way to go before the 2025 draft is upon us, the Giants are in a position where they need to begin focusing on the draft as soon as possible. And that has led to them already checking out Ward, who is projected to be one of the top picks in the upcoming draft. © Sam Navarro-Imagn Images Ward has been a mad man this season for the Hurricanes, and he continued playing at a high level against the Demon Deacons on Saturday. The star quarterback completed 27 of his 38 pass attempts, racking up 280 yards and three total touchdowns to lead Miami to their 10th victory of the year. The Giants certainly need help at quarterback, and it looks like they are one of several teams that are already keeping tabs on Ward. While they will be focused on playing out the string in the 2024 campaign, it appears as if they will also be watching Ward as he looks to put the finishing touches on his strong season with Miami.

Formula 1 expands grid to add General Motors' Cadillac brand and new American team for 2026 seasonWarren Buffett's Berkshire Hathaway ( BRK.A 0.99% ) ( BRK.B 0.95% ) has been one of Apple 's ( AAPL 0.59% ) largest shareholders in recent years. Buffett originally invested in Apple in late 2016, and by the end of 2023, Buffett's Berkshire held $174 billion worth of shares. But something seems to have changed Buffett's thinking toward the Apple investment. As of the third quarter, Berkshire's Apple stake had been cut to 300 million shares, down from over 905 million shares in 2023. Earlier this year, Buffett said that, "unless something really extraordinary happens," Berkshire would still own Apple shares when he was no longer CEO. It's worth noting that other billionaire investors were buying Apple shares in Q3, including Ole Andreas Halvorsen of Viking Global Investors and John Armitage of Egerton Capital. These mixed signals beg the question: Is Apple still an attractive investment, or should you follow Buffett's lead and take some profits? Apple's growth prospects Apple's total sales grew just 2% year over year in fiscal 2024 (which ended in September), but many investors have plowed into the stock this year after Apple unveiled new artificial intelligence (AI) features for its devices. The company just released Apple Intelligence in October, but investors are expecting improving sales growth, and the stock price has climbed nearly 19% year to date despite sluggish sales growth for Apple's device lineup. The AI update is seen as a major catalyst for iPhone specifically, which generates over half the company's revenue. Investors expect more iPhone users to upgrade to the latest products that have more powerful processors capable of running Apple Intelligence. The AI features require an Apple device with at least an M1 processor or later version. Higher demand for Apple devices would also fuel more demand for services, which generate double the gross profit margin compared to devices. It's for these reasons that Wall Street analysts expect Apple's annual revenue growth to improve to over 5% in fiscal 2025 before accelerating to over 8% in fiscal 2026. Earnings per share is expected to grow slightly faster at nearly 10% on annualized basis, given that higher-margin services now contribute at a higher rate to Apple's total sales. What about the stock's valuation? Apple has an incredibly strong brand and a loyal customer base. Its installed base of active devices reached another all-time high in the most recent quarter. Buffett cited the sticky relationship between the product and customer as a big reason why he originally invested in Apple, and if anything, Apple Intelligence will make the relationship even stickier. Given his stated views in the past, it is quite surprising that Buffett has suddenly decided to dump over half of Berkshire's investment. Buffett is not known to sell his winners just because they are a little expensive, but Apple's valuation is starting to look somewhat frothy. The shares fetch a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 37, compared to the S&P 500 average P/E of 30. At these levels, an investor shouldn't expect Apple's P/E to move higher, which means future returns will have to come from the company's earnings growth. At the Berkshire shareholders' meeting in May, Buffett mentioned that under current market conditions, he didn't mind building a larger cash position. That might still explain why he has continued to sell Apple, which remains Berkshire's largest investment even after dumping over half the position. Other billionaires that are buying the stock are clearly making the bet that Apple is going to report better earnings growth than the consensus estimate and justify the current valuation. Investors can find other large-cap tech companies growing earnings faster than Apple that trade at lower valuations and therefore might offer better return prospects. For this reason, I wouldn't call the stock a buy right now, but if I already hold shares, I wouldn't follow Buffett and sell either, since he may have unique reasons for selling, given the monumental size of the investment at the beginning of the year. For now, I would call Apple a hold, as its push into AI could surprise to the upside, as great businesses usually do.
Disney is remaking a number of animated classics into live-action movies. Some are remakes while others are origin stories or sequels to existing live-action adaptations. Among its current remakes are a live-action "Moana" and "Lilo & Stitch." Advertisement Despite Disney's late 2024 live-action release, "Mufasa: The Lion King," making substantially less ($35 million) than its 2019 "The Lion King" CGI-fueled release ($191.7 million) in its opening weekend at the domestic box office, the studio still has plans for two live-action adaptations of beloved animated movies coming in 2025 : "Snow White" and "Lilo & Stitch." And there are plans for more beyond that. Here's everything we know about the upcoming live-action releases of Disney's animated classics.

OAKLAND, Calif. (KGO) -- It's just three weeks until Christmas, but if you were at Mission Park Academy in Oakland on Wednesday, you would believe otherwise. A winter wonderland greeted the students at the Oakland elementary school, which hosted the 12th annual Christmas with the Currys. The annual event, which has been managed by the Currys' Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation since 2019, serves as the year-end extravaganza to celebrate a year of impact in Oakland. "2024 has been our biggest year to date at Eat. Learn. Play," said foundation CEO Chris Helfrich. "We are talking about a couple of thousand volunteers coming together to help us make this impact." Helfrich says Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation has fully remodeled eight school yards over the year, with libraries in progress and extra commitment to students, with free tutoring to promote reading. RELATED: 11th annual 'Christmas with the Currys' provides holiday cheer for Oakland students "When I woke up this morning, I did have joy," said foundation Co-founder Ayesha Curry. "But I think that was amplified when we stepped out of the car and saw everything that's been a culmination of a year of work come together." Much like the Warriors' motto "Strength in Numbers," the Currys' Eat. Learn. Play. Foundation relies on a strong group within their organization and countless volunteers and sponsors that are lifeblood of days like this. "It's a well-oiled machine, and you can see the results and the energy when you come to a day like this," said Co-founder Stephen Curry. "Not only the time that people spent to make things happen, but just the appreciation from everybody who is here on what it means--not just for the community--but the kids, teachers and families. It means the world." The foundation's colorful bus was back on display and kids walked away with new gear, books and meals. The schoolyard was transformed with plenty of carnival games, art stations and even a petting zoo. Both Stephen and Ayesha revealed their favorites. "For sure the petting zoo," said Ayesha Curry. "Although my allergies are telling me about myself. I think the Pixar station, the animation station was pretty cool. I walked over there and half of these kids were actually drawing Red Panda, which is insane." RELATED: 'Christmas with the Currys' celebrates a decade of giving back to the community "The design space for kids, where kids had a blank canvas to imagine what they would want for a newly renovated play space," said Stephen Curry. "You could see the kids have a different idea of what they envision, what's fun for them, what activities they are into and how they put it on paper. So, that's part of the cool part of us being able to commit to these play spaces, not just what we imagine what kids want. It's what they imagine and kind of taking their lead. I love that station." Safeway, one of the sponsors of Wednesday's event donated $200,000-worth of gift cards to pass out to students. "Schools break for holidays and the new year and that two-week period can be really detrimental. So ,for them to show up and show out like that and make sure people have what they need during this time is just phenomenal," said Ayesha Curry. Learn more about the program here .
