U.S. says it’s monitoring developments in South Korea
Construction and engineering company Argan ( AGX -4.00% ) stumbled on the stock market Tuesday. Following news of an analyst's recommendation downgrade, investors sold out of the stock to leave it with a 4% decline over the trading session. That was a worse performance than that of the bellwether S&P 500 index, which eked out a marginal gain of less than 0.1%. Approaching overvalued territory? The pundit responsible for the downgrade was Lake Street Capital Markets' Rob Brown, who changed his Argan recommendation to hold from the previous buy. Despite the change, Brown actually boosted his price target on the construction company's stock to $150 per share from $85. According to reports, the analyst believes that Argan's equity -- which has seen quite a run-up since the summer and has gained a whopping 220% in price year to date -- is now fairly valued. This company is benefiting from strong demand for power solutions in hot technologies such as electric vehicles and data centers. Brown added that the company should secure numerous large contracts in such fields, and these victories will drive meaningful growth in revenue and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (EBITDA) . No rally lasts forever While any stock facing juicy growth opportunities presents an attractive buying opportunity for investors, valuations always matter. In Argan's case, since its potential is so clear, scores of market players have already jumped in to take advantage of this. It's looking pricey on several key metrics, including price-to-sales at a ratio of almost 3 and a price-to-book value of 6.8. This isn't to say that it can't still go notably higher. However, buyers should always beware in situations where a stock is on a long bull run.One of the main factors contributing to Arsenal's struggles on the left flank is the inconsistency in personnel. The team has experimented with multiple players in the left-back and left-wing positions, including Kieran Tierney, Sead Kolasinac, Ainsley Maitland-Niles, and Gabriel Martinelli. This constant rotation has disrupted the chemistry and understanding between the players, resulting in a disjointed and ineffective left-sided attack.As the ceremony reached its climax, the recruits raised their right hands and solemnly swore an oath of allegiance to their country. The words echoed in the air, a powerful reminder of the commitment and sacrifice that lay ahead. The parents, their eyes filled with pride and a hint of sadness, listened as their children pledged to defend their nation with honor and courage.

Mike, who is a co-creator of the second version of Band Aid, shared his frustrations on social media. The 1989 single included vocals from the likes of Bananarama and Kylie Minogue, who weren't on the original version, but despite spending three weeks on the UK Singles Chart at the time, their contributions won't be heard this Christmas. That's also in spite of Pete Waterman postponing his wedding to get the supergroup together and record the song, called Band Aid II, along with Mike and Matt Aitken. Explaining the decision to an X radio host, Geldof stated: "We asked Pete Waterman where the tapes were and he said, 'I don't know.' "But Stock... what's Stock's actual name? Ah yeah, Mike Stock, he got a bit miffed and said 'I could've found them' - and we would have put them in, but these are the actual three Band Aid officials..." he continued as he discussed the remake. Mike, who has been responsible for more than 100 top-40 chart hits in the UK during his career, addressed Bob's explanation in a rant on X (Twitter) on Monday. He wrote: "The thing is Sir Bob, while you were outside being feted, lauded and fawned over by the press and TV media, I was the one inside putting the whole thing together. Here's Sir Bob Geldof explaining why the 1989 version of Band Aid 2 was left out @mikestockmusic ?????? pic.twitter.com/VuC8k6CJwu "It was a Sunday. Coincidentally, it was my birthday. You can imagine my surprise to learn that all the effort involved in bringing Band Aid 2 to the attention of the world is now being dismissed and reduced to the level of ‘unofficial’," he exclaimed. "A mere footnote in the history of Band Aid. This is at variance with the general view of the record buyers who supported the cause at the time and loved the record. A feeling which persists to this day. "As well as an unnecessary diminution in the integrity of the charitable trust. I mean, why on earth did all those artists turn up?" He added: "It also reflects badly on the commercial potential of the 2024 version to leave out the artists who were involved in Band Aid 2. Many of whom are still relevant today. "All in all a bit of a mistake if the aim is to maximise appeal in order to raise the most money for the cause. Instead of which decisions appear to have been made on a different basis. People have speculated about this." It comes after Geldof made headlines after Ed Sheeran revealed that he hadn't been asked permission for his vocals to be used on the 2024 version of the single - and would have refused to give consent had he been consulted.The controversy began when the advisor, whose identity has not been disclosed, took to social media to criticize President Zelensky's wardrobe, specifically pointing out that the Ukrainian leader's suits were not up to par with the standards expected of a head of state. The comments quickly gained traction online, with many questioning the advisor's motives and the relevance of criticizing a world leader based on their clothing choices.
Homesteader’s Holiday is a seasonal marriage of Christmas and history. The annual event at Centennial Village Museum, 1475 A St. in north Greeley, features children’s arts and crafts activities, a bluegrass band and Yuletide caroling, traditional wintertime beverages, storytelling and Cowboy Santa. “There’s a stigma that history is boring, that it’s not important,” said Geoff Havens, curator of historic sites for the city of Greeley Museums. “Centennial Village allows us to show how important history is and how it brings people in the community together. “Homesteader’s Holiday is largely a family event. Parents, kids, grandparents. It’s so much fun. And it’s a chance for history buffs to come out and see what we have.” Started in 2015, Homesteader’s Holiday attracts “300 to 600 visitors depending on the weather. We’ll have hot chocolate and cider to keep people warm.” The event will be from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday, Dec. 7 to Sunday, Dec. 8. Admission is $8 for adults, $6 for seniors and $5 for children. Children 12 and younger who bring a canned good for the Weld Food Bank are admitted free. “This is the first time for two days. We had it just Sundays in the past,” Havens said. “We spend a lot of effort decorating so we want more people to see it. We’re hoping for a good crowd.” A crew will start inside the buildings, decorating trees with old-fashioned ornaments and garlands. The group then begins working outside a few days before the event. “Colorado weather being what it is, we don’t decorate too early so everything gets wet and frozen,” Havens added. “We dress up the buildings in a way that is appropriate to their history and time.” Popular activities, for children and adults, offer entertainment in the historical venues. The five-person Rusty 44 bluegrass band will perform in the Weld Centennial Church. Built in 1917 near Grover, the structure was relocated to the village in 1976. Caroling will begin at the church and, led by a quartet, visitors can join the strolling group singing Christmas favorites. “Candle dipping is the most popular station,” Havens said, and will be in the Carriage House. Originally behind the Hall House at 1009 7th St. in Greeley, it was moved to the village in 1979. Storytelling will be in the back parlor of the Stevens-Reynolds House. The circa-1900 11-room house had a wood-burning kitchen stove and a coal furnace. The Queen Anne-style home was moved from 1117 9th Ave. in Greeley to the village in 1975. Children can also make paper poinsettia ornaments and write Christmas cards. “We have a print shop on-site and a staff member who is a printer,” Havens said. “Children can write on the cards to grandparents and other family members and Santa. Or they can give the cards to our Cowboy Santa.” Retired museum curator Scott Chartier of Greeley portrays Santa. “He’s a traditional Santa with a cowboy hat and a cowboy beard,” Havens said. “He hangs out in the courthouse. He likes the wood stove and the cozy feeling of the building.” Built around 1863 on a farm south of Platteville, the one-room wooden building is the oldest known existing structure in Weld County. Used as the county courthouse until 1868, it was the setting for decisions about representation, water rights, and property and personal disputes. Two other structures — the Spanish Colony House and the Grauberger Shanty — are reminders of the area’s agricultural roots. A shortage of farm laborers during and after World War I prompted local recruiters from the Great Western Sugar Co. to seek Hispanic workers from the southwest United States and Mexico. Great Western purchased land near its beet dumps and established “colonias“ for the workers. One room in the replica adobe house features Greeley Grays photographs and memorabilia. Spanish Colony residents formed the semi-pro baseball team in 1925. According to “From Sugar to Diamonds” by Jody L. and Gabriel A. Lopez: “The workers who went from the sugar field to the baseball diamonds are the beginning of the sugar beet league. They worked six days a week in the beet fields from daybreak to dusk weeding, hoeing, blocking, and thinning the sugar beets while doing other jobs on the farm to make a living and provide the things their families needed to survive. Baseball, at which they excelled, was their pastime and their passion.” Greeley Tribune stories in the book report that the Grays played a variety of teams in games at Butch Butler Municipal Field and in regional tournaments. The opponents included the Boulder Collegians, Cheyenne Lobos, Denver Merchants, Lowry AFB, Arvada Dons, Colorado State Prison team (a home game for the inmates), Monfort Packers, Monfort Luggers and the Greeley Bears. The Grauberger Shanty represents another group of farm workers. Between 1890 and 1915, many Germans from Russia settled in Weld County. During the growing season, they worked in the beet fields and often lived in tar paper-covered shanties. The German-Russian neighborhood in Greeley came to be called “Little Russia.” Many people of German-Russian ancestry live in Weld County today. Havens, who joined the city of Greeley Museums in 2021, has observed the village’s holiday combination of entertainment and education. “We really love how our community events are an opportunity for people to see history come alive,” he said. “We watch the interaction with families. We watch the magic happen.” — Ed Otte is a former editor of the Greeley Tribune and a former executive director of the Colorado Press Association. Centennial Village Museum Homesteader’s Holiday is one of four special annual events at Centennial Village. The series begins each year with Baby Animal Days the last weekend in April, followed by Fiesta on the Plaza the first Saturday in September and Howl-O-Ween the third weekend in October. Homesteader’s Holiday is always the first weekend in December. Centennial Village was established in 1976 as part of the nation’s bicentennial celebration. The 8-acre, open-air museum in north Greeley features more than 35 structures ranging from rustic wooden buildings to picturesque Victorian homes. Some of the buildings were saved from scheduled demolition and transported to the village, according to city of Greeley Museums Historic Sites Curator Geoff Havens. Closed in November for building maintenance and repairs, Havens said village preservation work is a constant priority. The museum was designated in the Greeley Historic Register earlier this year for historical, architectural and geographical significance. The designation was centered around its importance as a Bicentennial Project. In addition to the many early 20th-century homes, the village has a 1917 church, one-room schoolhouse, print shop with manually operated presses, carriage house, two blacksmith forges and a fire station with a 1921 American LaFrance chain-driven fire engine.

He told the Commons: “I am very pleased to be able to announce today the appointment of new lead ministers for disability in each Government department, they will represent the interests of disabled people, champion disability inclusion and accessibility within their departments. “I’m going to chair regular meetings with them and will encourage them to engage directly with disabled people and their representative organisations, as they take forward their departmental priorities. “And I look forward to this new group of lead ministers for disability together driving real improvements across Government for disabled people.” This came during an adjournment debate on International Day of Persons with Disabilities, where Liberal Democrat MP Steve Darling raised concerns about “floating bus stops”, which have a cycle lane between the stop and the pavement. Intervening, the MP for Torbay, who is registered blind, said: “The Government needs to ban floating bus stops.” Sir Stephen said: “I do think this issue about floating bus stops is an important issue which we need to work across Government to reflect on.” Labour MP Debbie Abrahams, who led the debate, had earlier criticised the lack of accessibility for disabled people on trains. The Oldham East and Saddleworth MP said: “Our train network does not have level access, and we heard Dame Tanni Grey-Thompson from the other place make this plea back in the summer, absolutely outrageous what she was put through. “But I was absolutely shocked to find, when I had a presentation of the TransPennine route upgrade, that the rolling stock yet to be commissioned is not going to provide that level access. “It’s absolute nonsense, it’s not even in the design of that procurement, so we must do better than this.”

The former president who inaugurated 2.7 kilometre old garage-Lameco road in Osogbo, Tuesday, as part of activities marking the second year in office of Adeleke, praised Adeleke for surprising people that he is not just dancing but also performing. Obasanjo posited that Adeleke’s achievement is not only for the people of Osun alone, but for the entire Yoruba race. He said, “Ile-Ife, the cradle of Yoruba race is in Osun State, so the development of Osun is in the interest of the entire Yoruba race. Ignore what your predecessors have failed to do. Focus on moving Osun to greater height and you will be doing good for the Yoruba people globally. “I decided to be here against all odds because of the successes Governor Adeleke achieved within two years. The governor has disappointed critics. He has shown that he is not only a good dancer but also a good performer.” Earlier, Governor Adeleke disclosed that his administration is committed to delivering on his agenda to reviving the state economy through infrastructure development. He said, “To revive the state and deliver on good governance, my administration launched out with a five-point agenda. We targeted specific areas of needs of the people which form the major components of the clearly defined agenda.The goal principally was to address the aspirations and immediate needs of our people. “Our administration has constructed over 120 kilometers of roads across the state. Several inter- state and intra-city roads completed are to be commissioned during this 16 days anniversary. Two major flyovers are also progressing to completion at Osogbo while works are progressing at the Ile Ife Flyover and Ilesa dualization. “I have redirected our efforts and plan at the completion of Iwo-Osogbo road. We have added the dualisation of Odoori – Adeeke road inside Iwo to be executed in two phases. The first phase will reach Post -Office and Oluwo Palace while the second phase will take off from Post Office to Adeeke Junction. “For the second half of our government, I reassure all sons and daughters of Osun State that the government under my leadership will complete all ongoing projects. We will continue to address the infra and social needs of our people. We will strike a balance between hard and soft infrastructure.”
