Having failed to win any of their last nine visits to the Philips Stadion, the Trots van het Noorden will head into the weekend looking to get one over the hosts and secure consecutive league victories for the first time since August. © Imago PSV Eindhoven returned to winning ways in style just before the international break as they edged out NAC Breda 3-0 when the two teams squared off at the Rat Verlegh Stadion on November 9. Having thrashed Spanish outfit Girona 4-0 in the Champions League just four days earlier, Ricardo Pepi , Ismael Saibari and Johan Bakayoko all found the back of the net to fire PSV to another resounding victory. Prior to that, Peter Bosz's men saw their run of 11 back-to-back victories in the Eredivisie come to an end on November 2, when they suffered a narrow 3-2 defeat against Ajax at the Johan Cruijff Arena. With a third of the season played, PSV are well on course to defend the Eredivisie title as they have picked up 33 points from a possible 36 to sit top of the standings with a five-point cushion over second-placed Utrecht. After two consecutive league matches on the road, the Rood-witten now return home, where they have won each of their last 10 league games, scoring 37 goals and keeping five clean sheets since a 2-2 draw against Feyenoord on Match 3. © Imago Groningen, on the other hand, were one of the few Eredivisie sides in action during the break as they played out a 1-1 draw with German outfit Koln last Thursday, when Mark Uth and Thijs Oosting scored for either side to force a share of the spoils. The Trots van het Noorden now return to action in the Eredivisie, where they will be looking to secure back-to-back wins for the first time since August after picking up a 1-0 victory over Sparta Rotterdam on November 9 Twenty-two-year-old Romano Postema grabbed the headlines for Groningen as he netted the only goal of the game one minute after the half-hour mark at the Euroborg Stadion to snap their six-game losing streak in the league. Dick Lukkien 's men have won just three of their 12 league matches so far while losing six and claiming three draws to collect 12 points and sit 13th in the standings, level on points with PEC Zwolle and Heracles. Next up for Groningen is the daunting challenge of taking on an opposing side who are unbeaten in 18 of the last 20 meetings between the two teams, claiming 13 wins and five draws since December 2008. PSV Eindhoven remain without several players down the spine of the team as Hirving Lozano (muscle) and Fode Fofana (knee) and Adamo Nagalo all continue their spells on the sidelines. Jerdy Schouten has missed the last five matches since coming off with a thigh problem against AZ Alkmaar in October while former Barcelona man Sergino Dest continues his long road to full fitness after picking up a knee injury back in April. Pepi netted two goals across two matches for the United States during the international break and the 21-year-old, who has three goals and six assists in 11 Eredivisie appearances will be one to keep an eye on this weekend. Groningen, meanwhile, will have to cope without experienced defender Marvin Peersman , who is currently suspended after crossing the yellow card threshold with his booking against Sparta Rotterdam on November 9. In his absence, AZ Alkmaar loanee Finn Stam should come into the fold, forming the back four with Leandro Bacuna , Marco Rente and 20-year-old Wouter Prins , while Postema and Thom van Bergen should team up in attack. On the injury front, Lukkien will be unable to name 21-year-old midfielder Tika de Jonge , who has missed each of the last two matches since picking up an injury against NEC Nijmegen on November 3. Team News text here PSV Eindhoven possible starting lineup: Benitez; Karsdorp, Boscagli, Flamingo, Dams; Tillman, Junior, Saibari; Bakayoko, Pepi, Lang Groningen possible starting lineup: Vaessen; Bacuna, Rente, Stam, Prins; Schreuders, Resink, Hove, Valente; Van Bergen, Postema While Groningen will look to continue right from where they dropped off against Sparta Rotterdam before the international break, they are in for a tough 90 minutes against PSV Eindhoven side who have flown out of the blacks in their title defense. Bosz's men head into the weekend on a blistering run of results at the Philips Stadion and we are backing them to extend their dominance over the visitors with another comfortable victory.

WILMINGTON, N.C. (AP) — Donovan Newby had 16 points in UNC Wilmington's 76-61 victory over Appalachian State on Saturday night. Newby also added six assists for the Seahawks (5-2). Nolan Hodge added 15 points while shooting 6 for 10, including 2 for 5 from beyond the arc and had six rebounds. Harlan Obioha had 12 points and shot 5 of 5 from the field and 2 of 5 from the free-throw line. The Mountaineers (5-3) were led in scoring by CJ Huntley, who finished with 17 points. Jalil Beaubrun added 16 points and 11 rebounds for Appalachian State. Alonzo Dodd had 11 points. UNC Wilmington took the lead with 15:43 left in the first half and did not relinquish it. The score was 44-33 at halftime, with Hodge racking up 15 points. ___ The Associated Press created this story using technology provided by and data from . The Associated PressThemis Qi Pak Shek Kok's development plan may be adjusted to focus on private housing, the Development Bureau said, adding that the government aims to release a preliminary proposal as early as the second quarter of 2025. After reviewing the housing area next to Science Park, the Development Bureau found it more appropriate to develop private homes, just four months after the government was reported to have planned to build 10,000 private and public units there. In response to an inquiry from Sing Tao Daily, The Standard's sister newspaper, the bureau also attributed the U-turn to the government having already identified sufficient land to meet the public housing supply target in the next 10 years. Considering the changes to housing supply and the challenges in building Pak Shek Kok MTR station and its surrounding infrastructure, the government deferred the unveiling of the development plan from the end of this year to the second or third quarter of next year. But the government maintains its goal of putting the Pak Shek Kok station in service no later than 2033. Over 24,000 staff work in Science Park. Moreover, the adjacent Chinese University of Hong Kong had over 21,000 students for the 2023/24 academic year. Pak Shek Kok is one of many low-density luxury home communities in the New Territories, including Great Eagle's Ontolo, due to its harbor view and the government's efforts to set up an innovation and technology hub there. Celebrities such as Wong Cho-lam bought a unit in the area. However, the previous plan revealed in August to build public homes raised concerns about the impact on private properties in Pak Shek Kok. Pak Shek Kok homes have traded at HK$15,915 per square foot on average for the past 30 days, down by 9.5 percent from the previous 30-day period, data from Midland Realty showed. But Sun Hung Kai Properties won a site in the region in 2019 for over HK$6.3 billion or HK$6,646 per sq ft, the highest in a decade. Lo Hiu-fung, member of the District Council for Tai Po South, agreed with changing to a private home-focused plan, saying high-density public flats will conflict with Pak Shek Kok's development. Scott Leung Man-kwong, a member of the Legislative Council, thinks Pak Shek Kok should focus on meeting middle-class demand and development could be accelerated if all residential properties are built by the private sector. But both Lo and Leung urged the government to announce more details in order to leave enough time for consultations for the sake of public interest.
A ground squirrel with cheeks stuffed with nuts, seeds or grains, is a common sight. But a new study provides the first evidence that California ground squirrels also hunt, kill and eat voles. The study, led by the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire and UC Davis, is the first to chronicle widespread carnivorous behavior among squirrels. Published in the Journal of Ethology, the study fundamentally changes our understanding of ground squirrels. It suggests that what was considered a granivorous species actually is an opportunistic omnivore and more flexible in its diet than previously assumed. The observations occurred in 2024 — the 12th year of the Long-term Behavioral Ecology of California Ground Squirrels Project conducted at Briones Regional Park in Contra Costa County. Out of 74 observed interactions with voles between June and July, 42% involved active hunting of these small rodents by ground squirrels. “This was shocking,” said lead author Jennifer E. Smith, an associate professor of biology at UW-Eau Claire who leads the long-term ground squirrels project with Sonja Wild of UC Davis. “We had never seen this behavior before. Squirrels are one of the most familiar animals to people. We see them right outside our windows; we interact with them regularly. Yet here’s this never-before-encountered-in-science behavior that sheds light on the fact that there’s so much more to learn about the natural history of the world around us.” Wild has observed hundreds of squirrels in nature and yet, even for her, when the undergraduate students came in from field work and told her what they had witnessed, she said, “No, I’m not sure what you’re referring to.” Then she watched the video. “I could barely believe my eyes,” said Wild, a postdoctoral research fellow in the UC Davis Environmental Science and Policy department. “From then, we saw that behavior almost every day. Once we started looking, we saw it everywhere.” Through videos, photos and direct observations at the regional park, the authors documented California ground squirrels of all ages and genders hunting, eating and competing over vole prey between June 10 and July 30. The squirrels’ carnivorous summer behavior peaked during the first two weeks of July, coinciding with an explosion in vole numbers at the park reported by citizen scientists on iNaturalist. This suggests that the squirrels’ hunting behavior emerged alongside a temporary increase in the availability of prey, the study said. The scientists didn’t observe the squirrels hunting other mammals. “The fact that California ground squirrels are behaviorally flexible and can respond to changes in food availability might help them persist in environments rapidly changing due to the presence of humans,” Wild said. Smith added that many species, including the California ground squirrel, are “incredible opportunists.” From raccoons and coyotes to spotted hyenas and humans, the flexibility these mammals apply to their hunting strategies help them change and adapt with the human landscape. “Through this collaboration and the data coming in, we’re able to document this widespread behavior that we had no idea was going on,” Smith said. “Digital technology can inform the science, but there’s no replacement for going out there and witnessing the behavior because what animals are doing always surprises us.” The researchers said many questions remain unanswered, including how widespread the hunting behavior is among squirrels, whether and how it is passed down from parent to pup, and how it effects ecological processes. The authors are also excited to return to the field next summer to see what impact, if any, this year’s vole hunting may have on squirrel reproduction compared to the past decade. Co-authors include Joey Ingbretson, Mackenzie Miner, Ella Oestreicher, Mari Podas, Tia Ravara, Lupin Teles and Jada Wahl of UW-Eau Claire and Lucy Todd of UC Davis. Several co-authors conducted field work during their undergraduate studies. Their work was partly funded by the Ronald E. McNair Postbaccalaureate Achievement Program, Diversity Mentoring Program and Summer Research Experience for Undergraduates. Additional funding sources include the Swiss National Science Foundation and the Vicki Lord Larson and James Larson Tenure-track Time Reassignment Collaborative Research Program.
Tiger Woods could not offer much of a timetable Tuesday on PGA Tour negotiations with the Saudi backers of LIV Golf or his own future as a player. Woods is the tournament host of the Hero World Challenge this week, and that’s his only role at Albany Golf Club in the Bahamas. He has played the holiday tournament only once since 2019, missing this year while recovering from a sixth surgery on his lower back. “I’m not tournament sharp yet, no. I’m still not there,” Woods said. “These are 20 of the best players in the world and I’m not sharp enough to compete against them at this level. So when I’m ready to compete and play at this level, then I will.” A big part of his time is occupied by PGA Tour business matters. Woods was appointed to the PGA Tour board a year ago with no term limits, and he also is on the board of the commercial PGA Tour Enterprises. There has been movement on negotiations for the Public Investment Fund of Saudi Arabia to become a minority investor in PGA Tour Enterprises — the tour already has a $1.5 billion investment from Strategic Sports Group and a player equity program. PGA Tour Commissioner Jay Monahan played in the Dunhill Links Championship on the European tour with the PIF governor, Yasir Al-Rumayyan. Monahan also played golf with President-elect Donald Trump, who had said he could fix golf’s mess in about 15 minutes. “I think all of us who have been a part of this process would have thought it would have happened quicker than this,” Woods said. He suggested any deal still would have required Justice Department approval. “But things are very fluid, we’re still working through it, it’s happening daily,” Woods said. “From a policy board standpoint or from an enterprise standpoint, things are moving and they’re constructive.” In the meantime, Bloomberg reported last week the European tour is talking with PIF separately, leading to suggestions of a shared schedule in which players from the European tour and LIV Golf could play on each circuit. “We all want to get past this and to do what’s best for the tour and in trying to do that, there’s going to be ... some eggs are going to be knocked over and it’s going to be a little bit difficult at times,” Woods said. “But in the end we’re going to get a product that’s better for all the fans and all the players that are involved and get some peace that the game desperately needs.” As for his own future, Woods was not certain. He was not asked if he planned to play in two weeks at the PNC Championship with his son, Charlie. It’s a 36-hole event hosted by the PGA Tour Champions, so Woods could ride in a cart. He has played it each of the last four years. He looked back at 2024 as a lost year, primarily because of his ailing back that began to spasm as the year went on. Woods had set a goal of playing a big tournament once a month through the majors season, but that fell apart early when he missed The Players Championship in March. He set a Masters record by making his 24th consecutive cut, but then only played at the next three majors and was gone by the weekend at each of them. He had a microdiscectomy in September to alleviate pain down his legs, but he had no idea how often he could play in 2025. “Whether my commitment going forward is once a month, yeah, I could say that all over again,” Woods said. “But I truly don’t know. I’m just trying to rehab and still get stronger and better and feel better, really give myself the best chance I can going into next year. “This year, I had to toss it away and I wasn’t as sharp as I needed to be and I didn’t play as much as I needed to going into the major championships and I didn’t play well at them,” he said. “Hopefully next year will be better. I’ll be physically stronger and better. I know the procedure helped and hopefully that I can then build upon that.”Alabama A&M football player on life support a month after suffering head injury in gameFor a family-friendly holiday, Wales has it all.
