CELEBRATING THE ARTS The Boerne Performing Arts grand finale holiday concert is swiftly approaching, on Dec. 12 at 7 p.m. in the Champion High School auditorium. “The Four Phantoms” return, this time for a holiday concert; a few hundred tickets remain. If you have not yet purchased tickets, please help us show our gratitude to the Boerne Performing Arts board and advisers, most of whom have volunteered their time, efforts and passion to bring our community together through the performing arts. This will be the final show, of the final season, for Performing Arts, which made the horribly difficult decision earlier this year, to bring the arts series to a close after 12 years of entertainment. “Four Phantoms” tickets can be purchased online at: www.boerneperformingarts. com; call 830-331-9079; or email [email protected] . Over the years, Boerne Performing Arts has hosted almost 40,0000 Boerne ISD elementary school students at free performances — hopefully instilling in them a love of the performing arts, while giving many a once- in- a- lifetime opportunity to experience performers from around the world. Thousands of BISD fine art students’ artwork was displayed, and a venue was provided for the BISD choir, band and orchestra students to perform for the public. BISD has been a wonderful and invaluable partner for Boerne Performing Arts and provided us with a state-of-the-art facility in which to hold the performances. The city of Boerne, together with Hill Country Council for the Arts, who acted as an incubator organization while preparing their 501(c)(3) application, along with numerous local businesses, provided support over the years. Our Boerne arts community remains grateful to all mentioned above, for the joy brought to our community.

, /PRNewswire/ -- Citius Oncology, Inc. ("Citius Oncology" or the "Company") (Nasdaq: CTOR), a specialty biopharmaceutical company focused on the development and commercialization of novel targeted oncology therapies, today reported business and financial results for the fiscal full year ended . "Reflecting on 2024, Citius Oncology has achieved pivotal milestones that underscore our commitment to advancing cancer therapeutics," stated , Chairman and CEO of Citius Oncology. "The FDA's approval of LYMPHIR for the treatment of cutaneous T-cell lymphoma marks a significant advancement in providing new options for patients battling this challenging disease. It is the only targeted systemic therapy approved for CTCL patients since 2018 and the only therapy with a mechanism of action that targets the IL-2 receptor. Additionally, the successful merger forming Citius Oncology, now trading on Nasdaq under the ticker CTOR, strengthens our position in the oncology sector. We expect it to facilitate greater access to capital to fund LYMPHIR's launch and the Company's future growth. With a Phase I investigator-initiated clinical trial combining LYMPHIR with pembrolizumab demonstrating promising preliminary results, indicating potential for enhanced treatment efficacy in recurrent solid tumors, and preliminary results expected from a second investigator trial with CAR-T therapies in 2025, we remain excited about the potential of LYMPHIR as a combination immunotherapy." "These accomplishments reflect the dedication of our team and the trust of our investors. As we look ahead, we remain steadfast in our mission to develop innovative therapies that improve the lives of cancer patients worldwide," added Mazur.

The increase was primarily due to costs associated with pre-commercial and commercial launch activities of LYMPHIR including market research, marketing, distribution and drug product reimbursement from health plans and payers. For the full year ended , stock-based compensation expense was as compared to for the prior year. The primary reason for the increase was due to the amounts being realized over 12 months in the year ended , as compared to three months post-plan adoption in the year ended . Net loss was , or per share for the year ended , compared to a net loss of , or per share for the year ended . The increase in net loss was primarily due to the increase in our operating expenses. Citius Oncology specialty is a biopharmaceutical company focused on developing and commercializing novel targeted oncology therapies. In , its primary asset, LYMPHIR, was approved by the FDA for the treatment of adults with relapsed or refractory CTCL who had had at least one prior systemic therapy. Management estimates the initial market for LYMPHIR currently exceeds , is growing, and is underserved by existing therapies. Robust intellectual property protections that span orphan drug designation, complex technology, trade secrets and pending patents for immuno-oncology use as a combination therapy with checkpoint inhibitors would further support Citius Oncology's competitive positioning.

The S&P 500 ended essentially flat, down less than 0.1%, after wavering between tiny gains and losses most of the day. The benchmark index posted a loss for the week, its first after three straight weekly gains. The Dow Jones Industrial Average slipped 0.2%, while the Nasdaq composite rose 0.1%, ending just below the record high it set on Wednesday. There were more than twice as many decliners than gainers on the New York Stock Exchange. Gains in technology stocks helped temper losses in communication services, financials and other sectors of the market. Broadcom surged 24.4% for the biggest gain in the S&P 500 after the semiconductor company beat Wall Street’s profit targets and gave a glowing forecast, highlighting its artificial intelligence products. The company also raised its dividend. The company's big gain helped cushion the market's broader fall. Pricey stock values for technology companies like Broadcom give the sector more weight in pushing the market higher or lower. Artificial intelligence technology has been a focal point for the technology sector and the overall stock market over the last year. Tech companies, and Wall Street, expect demand for AI to continue driving growth for semiconductor and other technology companies. Some tech stocks were a drag on the market. Nvidia fell 2.2%, Meta Platforms dropped 1.7% and Google parent Alphabet slid 1.1%. Among the market's other decliners were Airbnb, which fell 4.7% for the biggest loss in the S&P 500, and Charles Schwab, which closed 4% lower. Furniture and housewares company RH, formerly known as Restoration Hardware, surged 17% after raising its forecast for revenue growth for the year. All told, the S&P 500 lost 0.16 points to close at 6,051.09. The Dow dropped 86.06 points to 43,828.06. The Nasdaq rose 23.88 points to 19,926.72. Wall Street's rally stalled this week amid mixed economic reports and ahead of the Federal Reserve's last meeting of the year. The central bank will meet next week and is widely expected to cut interest rates for a third time since September. Expectations of a series of rate cuts has driven the S&P 500 to 57 all-time highs so far this year . The Fed has been lowering its benchmark interest rate following an aggressive rate hiking policy that was meant to tame inflation. It raised rates from near-zero in early 2022 to a two-decade high by the middle of 2023. Inflation eased under pressure from higher interest rates, nearly to the central bank's 2% target. The economy, including consumer spending and employment, held strong despite the squeeze from inflation and high borrowing costs. A slowing job market, though, has helped push a long-awaited reversal of the Fed's policy. Inflation rates have been warming up slightly over the last few months. A report on consumer prices this week showed an increase to 2.7% in November from 2.6% in October. The Fed's preferred measure of inflation, the personal consumption expenditures index, will be released next week. Wall Street expects it to show a 2.5% rise in November, up from 2.3% in October. The economy, though, remains solid heading into 2025 as consumers continue spending and employment remains healthy, said Gregory Daco, chief economist at EY. “Still, the outlook is clouded by unusually high uncertainty surrounding regulatory, immigration, trade and tax policy,” he said. Treasury yields edged higher. The yield on the 10-year Treasury rose to 4.40% from 4.34% late Thursday. European markets slipped. Britain's FTSE 100 fell 0.1%. Britain’s economy unexpectedly shrank by 0.1% month-on-month in October, following a 0.1% decline in September, according to data from the Office for National Statistics. Asian markets closed mostly lower.Several weeks ago, we told you about Senator Mike Lee proposing the return of 'real' light bulbs. It seems he is determined to bring this to fruition once Trump becomes President officially. Who else wants to bring back real light bulbs in 2025? The people of Twitter were very opinionated. You've been able to get highly efficient LED lights with the Kelvin rating of your choice for quite some time now. You'd be a fool to waste energy on old technology bulbs. You can light your entire house for the same energy expenditure of two "real light bulbs". Mike, I like you but you're dead wrong here. I'm a solar engineer with a degree in Photovoltaics and Electrical Utilities. Incandescent bulbs use 90% of electricity while supplying 10% of light. It's the inverse for CFL's or LED's. It hurt me to say this because I DO respect you I suspect if you put incandescent bulbs back on the shelf no one would buy them. LEDs are so much better. Don’t create heat, less dangerous, come in different brightness and color and are now “smart” as well. (The CFL bulbs with mercury in them were crap and we all knew it then.) Perhaps it should be up to the market to decide. We need an alternative to LED light bulbs. Not all of us think they are safe. Everyone wants real incandescent lightbulbs again. Everyone except GE, Sylvania, etc. They are the ones who lobbied our government to outlaw incandescents - and not for environmental reasons but because their margin was getting too small and competition too strong. Get... How about people are free to choose? The led bulbs are better in every way. I’m not going back to Thomas Edison technology because boomers want to shake their fist at the sky. Some people saw the ability to choose the old light bulbs again to be very positive. Personally I like the LEDs. But I also think markets, and not government, should determine what kind of lighting we use. So by all means, please legalize "real light bulbs." Isn't the free market a beautiful thing? Incandescent lightbulbs and no more low flow dishwashers that take 2 hours to was a load. Insanity. 💡 I want 5 gallon flush back. "low flow" toilets have to be babied and flushed 3-4 times bit by bit to prevent clogging. they are WORSE on water. Several people also had other suggestions for things America would like to see again. I'm so tired of the government telling us what kind of bulbs we can use. It's a perfect example of bureaucratic overreach. Bring back our freedom of choice! And let's be real, those new bulbs are just not the same. They're harsh, they're expensive, and they're bad for the... Government getting out of our lives is always a good thing.
A YOUNG ULSTER side dug deep to grind out a fully-deserved interpro win in Galway, a 10-point victory over Connacht ending a five-game losing streak for Richie Murphy’s side and marking their first win on the road of the season. Connacht will be deeply disappointed to come away with nothing, with Pete Wilkins’ men paying the price for a slow start and inaccurate attacking performance. The home team only scored seven points on the night through Mack Hansen’s first-half try, converted by Jack Carty, while Eric O’Sullivan and Nick Timoney crossed either side of half-time for Ulster. The visitors looked hungrier throughout, with Timoney and James McNabney both outstanding in the Ulster back row.Trump calls meeting with Trudeau 'productive' after tariff threatLouisville wastes early lead, holds off Eastern Kentucky
China unveils amphibious assault ship that can launch fighter jetsThe Yomiuri Shimbun 7:00 JST, December 28, 2024 Prime Minister Shigeru Ishiba expressed Thursday his ambition to establish and promote an AI system that could serve as a global model, with the aim of submitting related legislation to next year’s ordinary Diet session. At a lecture organized in Tokyo by the Yomiuri International Economic Society, Ishiba spoke on AI policy, emphasizing the importance of balancing technological innovation with risk management. “AI technology will determine the competitiveness of nations and the richness of societies,” he said. Ishiba also expressed hope that it would help address issues such as labor shortages in regional businesses and the manufacturing industry. At the same time, he acknowledged the risks involved and pointed out a sense of concern among the public. Referring to an instance where an AI-generated image of him dressed as Santa Claus was posted on X, Ishiba stressed the necessity of creating a system to distinguish between content created by AI and by humans. The AI-related legislation is expected to align closely with the interim proposals released Thursday by an expert advisory council on the government’s AI policies. These proposals recommend strengthening the government’s command structure to oversee everything from the research and development to the application of AI. The bill is also likely to include provisions for establishing an AI strategy headquarters composed of all Cabinet members. Regulatory measures are also being considered, such as investigative authority being granted to the government to address malicious copyright infringement.
The social media site known as TikTok has been banned from all township devices. Chief Administrative Officer Kristi Honey said staff made the decision for IT and cyber protection. The ban extends to any corporate devices councillors might use for township business. Honey said the decision followed the federal government’s concerns over TikTok and national security. The township ban is just the latest example of governments around the world, from federal to municipal, banning the Chinese-based platform. According to a Nov. 7 article by the CBC, the bans are based on fears that user data could fall into the possession of the Chinese government. The CBC piece said that the Canadian Security Intelligence Service (CSIS) has even warned Canadians against using TikTok. “Former CSIS director David Vigneault told CBC...it’s “very clear” from the app’s design that data gleaned from its users “is available to the government of China.” The Canadian government recently ordered TikTok’s Canadian operations to end. However, the app itself is still available.District 177, parks, QGF headline North Platte City Council agendaIf you have a gamer on your gift list whose main platform is the PlayStation 5 , Black Friday is the perfect time to get them the latest games, accessories, and consoles bundled with digital downloads of popular titles.

Right now, you can save 30% on a PS Plus Premium membership when billed annually, bringing the yearly subscription price to just $112, then $160 per year after that.
