Nippon Express, Japan's largest freight forwarder, said its net profit declined 18.7 percent in the first nine months of fiscal 2009, which started in April, from a year earlier to $143.7 million on a consolidated basis.
The Tokyo-based company's group sales totaled $13 billion in the April-December period, down 18.2 percent from the same nine-month period of 2008. The company's group operating profit inched up 0.2 percent to $311.9 million.
Revenue in the Americas fell 37.5 percent to $311.6 million, creating an operating loss of $100,000 compared with an operating profit of $24.4 million a year earlier.
Nippon Express attributed the poor financial results to the long slump in demand for freight services, especially at home.
"Demand for international freight services shows signs of a recovery, helped by governments' economic stimulus measures, but demand for domestic freight services is still on the decline," Nippon Express said in its earnings release.
The company's sales forecast for the whole of fiscal 2009 was unchanged at $17.1 billion, down 15.9 percent from fiscal 2008. Nippon Express forecast operating profit up 4.4 percent to $388.9 million and net profit down 30.8 percent to $116.7 million.
Nippon Express has operations in more than 90 countries around the world. According to the company, the Nippon Express group is the world's second-largest international air freight forwarder and the world's seventh-largest comprehensive distribution company.

Federal investigators have ordered St. Joseph Medical Center to conduct annual, random audits of its cardiac care practice to verify that the procedures performed there are necessary, in the wake of allegations that Dr. Mark G. Midei placed heart stents in hundreds of patients who didn't need them.
The requirement, part of a far-reaching "corporate integrity agreement" imposing greater government oversight of the Towson hospital, also requires St. Joseph to follow strict rules designed to discourage — or catch — kickbacks to doctors and fraudulent treatment and billing.
U.S. Senate investigation this year.
St. Joseph's other obligations include keeping a database of business arrangements, providing annual reports to the federal government and maintaining independent supervision of physicians and the cardiac laboratory.
Failure to comply could result in thousands of dollars in fines or an exclusion from participation in the federal Medicare program — the "death penalty" for a hospital, said Gary W. Thompson, a health care lawyer based in Washington.
The agreement, signed in November, was made public online last week by the Office of the Inspector General of the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services.
It's part of a $22 million settlement repaying federal funds received for Midei's questionable stents and resolving claims of a decade-long kickback scheme between St. Joseph and MidAtlantic Cardiovascular Associates — a Pikesville cardiology group co-founded by Midei.
The 17-page settlement claims that St. Joseph paid MidAtlantic to refer patients for "lucrative cardiovascular procedures" from 1996 to 2006, and that the hospital "submitted false claims for medically unnecessary stent procedures performed by Dr. Mark Midei" in the years afterward.
St. Joseph, which admitted no liability in the settlement, removed three top executives in February 2009 because of the federal investigation and brought in a restructuring team to revamp its practices. Midei was fired in July of that year, and the hospital has since notified 585 of his patients that their artery-opening stents might have been unnecessary.
Midei, who denies any wrongdoing, filed a lawsuit against the hospital this fall.
In a statement, the hospital said it "views the corporate integrity agreement as an opportunity to enhance and upgrade its existing compliance systems."
But health care lawyers say such agreements are more like "involuntary" compliance programs that burden providers who've been caught doing something wrong — intentionally or otherwise.
"They're subject to significantly higher scrutiny by the federal government," which can lead others to be wary of working with them, said Todd A. Rodriguez, a health care attorney in Exton, Pa. "It's just a red flag in general, that the hospital has … had issues, it's had compliance issues, that's what it tells you," Rodriquez said.
There were roughly 380 corporate integrity agreements listed on the HHS inspector general's website last week, involving individuals, billion-dollar corporations and nonprofits, including St. Joseph. Three other Maryland businesses also have such agreements, as do five state physicians.
The agreements usually span three to five years and often require many of the same components as the one reached with St. Joseph: hiring a compliance officer, developing written standards and policies, implementing training programs, creating a whistle-blower procedure, providing annual reports, undergoing monitoring and review, and being subject to financial penalties for noncompliance.
Where the St. Joseph agreement differs is in its provisions for physicians, particularly those working in cardiology, said lawyers who reviewed the document.
"They're requiring more peer review and physician oversight, and evaluations of outcomes with respect to these cardiology procedures," said Edwin Rauzi, a health care attorney based in Seattle.
The agreement is "more specific in terms of the behavior that it imposes upon different actors," Rauzi said. "It involves physicians, whereas most of the other times [such agreements involve] hospital executives."
St. Joseph has to create a compliance committee that includes "physician executives" responsible for the quality of care by the medical staff. And it must appoint a medical director for the cardiac laboratory who reports at least quarterly to the physician executives.

Final Score: LA Angels of Anaheim 8, Oakland 3
Oakland, CA (Sports Network) - Albert Pujols went 3-for-4 with two RBI and a run scored as the LA Angels of Anaheim took an 8-3 win over the Oakland Athletics to open a four-game set.
Mike Trout and Mark Trumbo each drove in two while J.B. Shuck scored three runs for the Angels, who have won their past two. C.J. Wilson (11-6) won his third straight start as he gave up three runs on five hits with three walks and six strikeouts over seven innings.
"We'll take eight runs any way they come," Angels manager Mike Scioscia said. "If we have one hitter hitting two grand slams and that's the only two hits we get, we'll take it. But I think the depth of our lineup is important. I think we had everybody contributing tonight, and that's nice."
Derek Norris went 2-for-4 with a solo home run and two RBI for the Athletics, who came into the game having won three of four. Dan Straily (6-4) was touched for five runs on seven hits with two walks and five strikeouts in 4 1/3 innings.
"I thought I had some pretty good command with the ball tonight," said Straily. "But later in the game they were able to get some good swings on the ball. They're aggressive hitters and they swing at a lot of pitches."
Pujols' RBI single in the third pushed across the first run of the game, but Oakland went on top in the fourth as Yoenis Cespedes scored on a wild pitch and a single from Norris scored Chris Young, who had doubled in the previous at-bat.
The Angels went back on top in the fifth thanks to a four-run frame.
Erick Aybar led off with a walk and Shuck singled. Trout's sac fly scored the first run of the frame, and Pujols followed with a single. Josh Hamilton then plated a run with a single and Trumbo followed with a two-run double for a 5-2 lead.
The Angels padded their lead further in the sixth as a Jesse Chavez wild pitch scored Hank Conger, and Trout and Pujols added RBI singles later in the frame for an 8-2 lead.
Norris' solo homer to left-center in the bottom of the sixth accounted for the final score as the A's managed just one baserunner in the final three innings.
Game Notes
Despite the loss, the A's still lead the season series, 6-4 ... LA batted 6- for-11 with runners in scoring position, while the A's were just 1-for-9 and stranded six ... Straily fell to 1-2 in five games against the Angels ... Wilson has three wins in four starts against the A's this season.

Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. Originates $12.4 Million Mezzanine Loan With Option To Purchase Up To $50.0 Million In Skilled Nursing Facilities; Acquires Assisted Living Facility In Virginia For $6.2 Million
IRVINE, Calif., July 1, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sabra Health Care REIT, Inc. ("Sabra," the "Company" or "we") (Nasdaq:SBRA) (Nasdaq:SBRAP) announced the origination of a mezzanine loan investment for $12.4 million and the acquisition of a 32-unit assisted living facility located in Woodstock, Virginia for $6.2 million.
Chai Portfolio Mezzanine Loan
On June 28, 2013, we originated a $12.4 million mezzanine loan (the "Chai Mezzanine Loan") with an affiliate of Chai Facilities Acquisition Company, LLC (the "Borrower"), the indirect owner of twelve skilled nursing facilities having 1,689 licensed beds in seven states (the "Chai Portfolio"). The Chai Mezzanine Loan has a two-year term and bears interest at a fixed rate of 12.0% per annum. It is secured by the Borrowers' equity interests in the entities that own the Chai Portfolio. In addition, we have an option to purchase up to $50.0 million of properties within the Chai Portfolio. Should we exercise our option to purchase any properties in the Chai Portfolio, we would expect to enter into a new 15 year master lease with two five-year renewal options at an initial cash yield of 9.5% with annual rent increases equal to the greater of the change in the Consumer Price Index and 3.0%. The Chai Mezzanine Loan was funded with available cash.Commenting on the Chai Mezzanine Loan, Rick Matros, CEO and Chairman, said, "The operating team for the Chai portfolio currently operates two of Sabra's Texas skilled nursing facilities. We appreciate having the opportunity to expand our relationship with SLC at the time we exercise our purchase option. The purchase option provides us with the opportunity to choose which facilities we bring into the Sabra portfolio." Greenfield of Woodstock On June 28, 2013, we purchased a 32-unit assisted living facility located in Woodstock, Virginia for $6.2 million ("Greenfield of Woodstock"). Concurrently with the purchase, we entered into a triple-net lease agreement with affiliates of Greenfield Senior Living, Inc. The lease has an initial term of 15 years with two ten-year renewal options and provides for annual rent escalators of 3.0%, resulting in annual lease revenues determined in accordance with GAAP of $0.6 million and an initial yield on cash rent of 7.75%. The purchase price was funded with available cash.

Professor Chen's research focuses on cross-cultural differences and similarities in employees' behaviors and attitudes. She has compared the ways in which employees in different cultures react to performance feedback, relate to their own groups and other groups, and negotiate with their business counterparts. Her recent work examines how employees obtain, maintain, and experience status and power in their different cultural environments, and in globally diverse settings. She also looks at how status concerns affect leadership effectiveness and influence business interactions across cultures.
Chen has been published extensively in leading psychology and management journals, including Psychological Review, Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, Administrative Science Quarterly, Management Science, Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes, and Organization Science. Prior to joining Johnson, she was on the faculty at the Stern School of New York University and Rutgers Business School. Professor Chen also has extensive experience in senior executive education around the world.
Chen earned her PhD in psychology from Columbia University. Her work received the Best Paper Award from the Organization Behavior Division of the Academy of Management in 2002 and the Best Micro Best Paper Award at the International Association of Chinese Management Research in 2008. She has been on the editorial board of the Academy of Management Review, the Management and Organization Review, and Organization Science.

21st Century Fox's Peter Rice, director David O. Russell, Los Angeles City Councilman Gil Cedillo and Los Angeles' film czar Ken Ziffren were among those who helped launch a West Coast version of New York's Ghetto Film School, which prepares high school-age students in cinematic storytelling and production training.
The Ghetto Film School, started in 2000 by Joe Hall, has enrolled an initial 25 students in its Los Angeles program, with financial and in-kind support from Fox and plans for studio figures to serve as mentors and guest lecturers. It is based at the Heart of Los Angeles, the community youth organization located in the Rampart District.
Students in the 30-month program will get college-level training as preparation for later education and internships, as well as for making industry connections.
After going to USC for a year as part of a community based fellowship, Hall, trained in social work, came up with idea to start the New York program in the South Bronx, opening in a small storefront. The next year he met Russell, who spread word to other filmmakers like Spike Jones and Wes Anderson. Russell currently is a member of the school's board of directors.
"We have seen 12 years of kids in New York City graduate, go on to college, far beyond the average in New York City," Russell said. "The kids are inspired. They have to work hard, but they learn about every aspect of filmmaking."
The school grew into a non profit with full time staffing, and, five years ago, partnered with New York's Department of Education to create the Cinema School, the first film-dedicated high school. Ghetto Film School also runs a production company with alumni called Digital Bodega, which has produced shorts and has taken on assignments for advertising clients like Nike and General Mills.
Hall said that he was not sure if the L.A. program will lead to a permanent high school, but their L.A. launch also will include a West Coast version of Digital Bodega.
He said that students, who were selected by an application process, may have had plans to attend college after high school, but they "may not understand a creative life and creative career is an option. What we want to do is demystify all of that."
Monday was the first day, and students wasted no time going right into instruction. Simone Walker, 14, of Baldwin Hills, said that by midday they had already been taught the basics of camerawork, and then were given shot lists to start filming in nearby Lafayette Park.
Walker said she found out about Ghetto Film School via a theater program she is attending, and said that she wanted to "give everything a try and figure out if there is something I want to do more."
Another student in the program, Axel Colin, 13, of Koreatown, said he was interested in becoming a director or cinematographer. He learned of the Ghetto Film School via an apprentice program, Spark.
He's entering the school with a concept in hand. "I have actually done my own screenplays," he said. "I did it because I wanted to make my own movie. I named it the 'Earth's Second Chance.'" What is about? He's off to a good start when it comes to pitching a project: "Basically, we can't live here any more, and the Earth is about to blow up and we got to go to space and look for another planet. Will we get there?"

Before there was Kim Kardashian, there was Coco--Coco's rear end, that is.
"I've been a booty girl before the Kardashians," Coco told us. "I mean the Kardashians just happen to be on E!, but really before that show came on it was nothing but Coco talk--if my butt is real or not! I've been in the picture for 10 years."

Tucker Carlson Declares Ben Smith DNC 'Mouthpiece'
Things are getting strained again in the polluted airspace between The Daily Caller's Editor-in-Chief Tucker Carlson and BuzzFeed Editor Ben Smith. Let's just say getting them in a room and locking the door could be quite entertaining. You guys free for dinner?
Late Wednesday afternoon, Smith drew the ire of The Daily Caller by printing a story about Matthew Boyle's exchanges with DNC Spokesman Brad Woodhouse. The story claimed that Boyle "threatened" Woodhouse, and revealed an exchange in which Boyle said what he would write on DNC Chairmwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz and AG Eric Holder if he didn't respond to his questions pertaining to "Fast and Furious" scandal. The damning quote: "I'm giving you until 10 am tomorrow to answer this question, then I'm reporting Chairwoman Debbie Wasserman Schultz is not supporting Holder," Boyle wrote Woodhouse.
Woodhouse, in turn, went to BuzzFeed and spilled the details of the exchange. He called Boyle's behavior "blackmail" and said Wasserman Schultz adamantly supports Holder. He chose not to respond to Boyle — Smith called this "not an unusual practice" in regards to an organization with an opposing agenda.
"It's no surprise that a left wing hack like Ben Smith is, once again, being used as a mouthpiece by the DNC," Carlson told FishbowlDC last night.
Smith declined to comment.
Boyle did not return an email full of questions, so we passed them along to the publication's publicist Nicole Roeberg, but not without at least trying to smoke him out with this tweet: "Sent you questions. If I don't hear back from you by 8 p.m. I'm going to write that you plan to t.p. Brad Woodhouse's home." To which Boyle replied, "lol."
Roeberg, however, did respond. We asked if she thought the story was fair, what she makes of Woodhouse going to Buzzfeed with this and does she consider what Boyle said to DNC to be a threat?
She replied, "I don't consider Matthew's email to be a threat (or blackmail, as Woodhouse called it). Matthew was simply letting him know that tomorrow morning, he would be writing a story that said the DNC would provide no verbal support of Holder, unless he had reason to report something different. Matthew has written several stories on the topic and emailed literally hundreds of spokespeople the exact same question with similar timelines. Many have answered it, many haven't, only one chose to turn to the media to try and deflect the story and change the subject."
Ben and Tucker? The dinner offer stands.

NARRAGANSETT—The country's capability in designing computer programs and governmental protocols for preventing cyber attacks rests largely on the shoulders of today's students. Using computers and the internet is now an integral part of the primary school's syllabus, and the genesis of future research will come from the high school and university levels. Luca Spinazzola, a senior at Narragansett High School, is a beneficiary.
Spinazzola recently placed first in Rhode Island for the Cyber Foundations Competition, an aptitude test which focuses on three essential skill sets for understanding cyber security: networking, operating systems, and system administration. Students across the United States were provided with study materials and took the tests throughout March and April.
"I read on the news the other day that a lot of people had their credit card info and identities stolen," said Spinazzola. "This competition is really important."
students from 135 schools throughout the United States took part in the testing. Spinazzola will receive $100 and a trophy from the SANS Institute, a cyber security research and education group.
"Cyber skills should be a core fundamental of the science, technology, engineering and math (STEM) fields, which are critical to improving innovation," said Congressman James Langevin. "By supporting initiatives like this competition, Rhode Island can take the lead in a field that is becoming in increasingly high demand."

Except if Jones tried that, the chain of events would be;
Drinks 2 beers, gets changed, drives his bentley out of the parking lot directly into the telephone pole across the street. Several non-mother of his child women get out of the car and scatter to the winds. Bonesknows has a nervous breakdown trying to justify Jones' actions while 1ITC has to buy a new keyboard after wearing the H A keys out.
EDIT: 24 hours later Jones posts an instagram video about how cops are all haters because they charged him with a DUI. Video is removed 13 minutes later, and its release is blamed on an intern working for google maps.
Is Stella considered a pretenscious drink in the US? I find that interesting cos here it is the exact opposite, people call it "wifebeater" as drinking too much often leads to violence. We still get the pretenscious adverts though.
I just wish Jones would knock off the nice guy routine, if he beats Gus or after, and just go full on Money Mayweather.
Jones said he wanted to make money, well turning full blown heel will do that for you.
You have to know what you don't know.
Stone Cold was commenting as a fan of MMA just like everyone else here. What's the difference between him or any of us blabbing on here?
unless the beer in question is coors or coors light or a product of said company.
All manner of men came to work for the News: everything from wild young Turks who wanted to rip the world in half and start all over again -- to tired, beer-bellied old hacks who wanted nothing more than to live out their days in peace before a bunch of lunatics ripped the world in half.

Tell me something: What do you think would happen if the United States concludes that Iran has been cheating and delaying and is about to pop a fully functional nuclear weapons program? Would President Obama respond by joining Israel to bomb the Iranian nuclear facilities to smithereens - or would he stall and equivocate? My bet is the latter and so, just to double down, is what I bet the Iranians are betting. They have taken the measure of Obama. He lacks menace.
The Food and Drug Administration can make two types of errors. It can approve a drug that has dangerous unanticipated side effects, or it can reject or delay approval of a drug that is safe and effective. Let's look at these errors, because to err on the side of under- or over-caution is costly.
It's a little thing, but it bugs me a lot.
If I die anytime soon - and I have no plans to do so at the moment - please see that the first paragraph of my obituary reads, "He was past president of the University of Georgia National Alumni Association." You can save for later paragraphs the part about my being often mistaken for Brad Pitt and my uncanny ability to put commas where they don't belong.
Ever since the 1976 election, I've understood the importance of voter turnout. My father was running for United States Congress in rural Georgia, having lost in 1974. He realized in early 1976 that running as a republican in Georgia, while Jimmy Carter was topping the democratic ticket, was going to be a hard feat to pull off, but confident of his ability to work hard, he trudged forward.
This past summer I travelled back home to attend the 50th year reunion of the class of 1964 of St Mary's High in Annapolis Maryland.
In 1913, an entrepreneur "said in many newspapers and over his signature that it would be possible to transmit the human voice across the Atlantic before many years." For that accurate assessment of reality, he was prosecuted for stock fraud. A U.S. District Attorney claimed that, "based on these absurd and deliberately misleading statements, the misguided public ... has been persuaded to buy stock in his company."
The director of the Secret Service, Julia Pierson, was questioned this past Tuesday by members of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform regarding lapses in Secret Service Performance. The hearing focused primarily on an incident that took place on September 19. Omar J. Gonzalez, 42, allegedly jumped the White House fence, ran across the White House lawn, ran up a flight of stairs and through the North Portico door. He then allegedly entered the entrance hall, turned left and headed into the East Room, where he was tackled and subdued. A knife was allegedly found in his possession.
The Islamic State of Iraq and the Levant (ISIL), sometimes called ISIS or IS, is a Sunni extremist group that follows al-Qaida's anti-West ideology and sees a holy war against the West as a religious duty. With regard to nonbelievers, the Quran commands, "And kill them wherever you find them, and turn them out from where they have turned you out." The Quran contains many other verses that call for Muslim violence against nonbelievers for the sake of Islamic rule.
Whew! That was close! I almost became a Baptist the other day. Not just any Baptist, but a (gulp!) Southern Baptist.
The sweat somehow made the moment more real. There we were, standing on the stage at the Hilton Hotel in Downtown Columbia, S.C., on Saturday night with my dad, Newt Gingrich, celebrating his primary victory. It was the sweat rolling down the faces and dripping off the noses of the television cameramen, photographers, audience members and even those on stage celebrating that transformed the almost surreal scene into reality.
In case you missed this, a scientist, Leonid Ksanfomaliti, at the Space Research Institute of Russia's Academy of Science, announced he analyzed photographs from a 1982 probe of Venus and thinks they may reveal life on the planet.
Unless you've been under a rock for the past couple of years, you know about predictions from some quarters that the world will end on Dec. 21, 2012. That date marks the end of a 5,125-year cycle as calculated by the now dead Mayan culture that once inhabited parts of southern Mexico, Guatemala, Belize, El Salvador and Honduras. While the Mayans themselves marked the end of one of their time cycles with celebration, many interpretations of Mayan hieroglyphics say the planet will be destroyed in violent earthquakes and other cataclysmic events next December. Once relegated to the fringes ...
State Sen. Tommie Williams (R-Lyons), one of our two unelected lieutenant governors - Chip Rogers (R-Woodstock) is the other - sent out a puff piece taking much credit for authoring a bill to require local school boards to consider a teacher's "effectiveness," not seniority, when getting rid of teachers. People both inside and outside state government tell me that Williams has solved a problem that doesn't exist. Many school boards are already doing this. Seniority is a big issue in the Northeast, where there are teachers' unions. We have none in Georgia. I wish Williams and/or Rogers would share ...
Recently, my Littles and I were foraging through some woods out in the wilds of Newton County in search of a geocache. Doesn't that already sound like something wonderful? Just say it with me one time…. "geo-cassshhhhh." See? Doesn't that word just reek of adventure and good times? If you don't know the first thing about geocaching, that's OK. I'm here to tell you a thing or two and why I think it's one of the most awesome activities a family can do together. Geocaching is like treasure hunting made even more fabulous because ...
I don't know what the state curriculum requires now, but when I taught, the Language Arts curriculum required students to write a term paper or research paper in the 10th and 11th grades. It was difficult enough then, but it must be impossible now with the blessing and the curse of the Internet.
Rock Eagle 4-H Center continues to change as cabins are gutted, torn down and replaced with beautiful new cabins.
As the man said who watched the mule dance: "That just ain't right."
Even now - far removed from the original passions - I can still remember that my friends and I were once young and vibrant. When we were just approaching our 20s, we were night owls, prowling the Atlanta New Wave music scene when we should have been doing calculus homework. On a typical weekend in our suburban town, we'd finish our work at the mall or any of a dozen other places desperate enough to hire us, and we'd start out on our night crawls, down to the big city of Hotlanta. Hotlanta was what my out-of-state friend called it ...

Our democratic republic is founded on the basis that there is an informed active and participating citizenry. Somehow through the years our society has become apathetic and lazy in the responsibility to stay aware of issues in our government and intellectually curious enough to seek the facts and actions of our elected leaders.
You knew this column had to be written. It's just too obvious. I can't turn and look the other way. The topic just fell into my lap, so who could ignore it or pretend it didn't happen and just go on as before? Nobody, I say, and least of all, me.
State School Superintendent John Barge knows what teachers can do, given the opportunity. "A teacher turned my life around," he said in a recent telephone conversation. Monty Fountain, a teacher and a coach at Alexander High School in Douglas County became a father-figure and set him on his career path.
Part of the joy of a presidential campaign is visiting different parts of the country. This past week was New Hampshire week. I've been to New Hampshire about a half-dozen times. It's a beautiful state. Mountains, ocean, beautiful forests and normally snow this time of year. However, we were snowless.

Sonar Producer Edition X3
Configurable input and output options
One of the first things you might consider doing when the application starts is going through the available settings. You need to specify what driver the application takes advantage of, otherwise you might end up with no sound coming out of the speakers.
Suitable for advanced users
The interface put at your disposal is polished, offering quick access to its features. Experts feel at home navigating through media libraries and adjusting sliders or hitting knobs. However, there are so many options available that the main window feels a little crowded.
Use available presets or add your own tunes
Creating a new project only requires to have your imagination ready. A decent amount of preset loop effects and beats are available by default, but you can add your own or modify the existing ones. You can simply drag them over the preview section next to the desired track.
Work with multiple layers
Multiple sound layers can be inserted, each with its own effects rack which can be altered in real-time to get the sound just right. Once you are happy with the arrangements, you can export to a large variety of audio formats, as well as OMF, or track template.
To end with
Taking everything into consideration, we can say that Sonar Producer Edition is one of the applications that shouldn't be missing from any music enthusiast's computer. It takes a little getting used to but the provided help manual make sure you get acquainted with all features.

Anchored by lines — both offensive and defensive — that bullied, bruised and blocked their way past Dobson, Corona del Sol played smash-mouth football for a 33-6 victory Friday night in a game shortened by lightning.
The running back-by-committee philosophy, which included Dominic Mercurio, James Contes and Tevin Mayfield, rushed for 242 yards in only three quarters of play.
"We knew going in that they were going to be a physical team," Mustangs coach Alex Jacobson said. "Look, they whipped our butts. We were out-physicaled tonight, that was the bottom line."
The Aztecs (2-1) scored three of their touchdowns on the ground, led by Mercurio, who logged a pair of 2-yard touchdowns in the first half. Mercurio led the team with 83 yards on the ground.
"They've got some talent on that offensive line and that defensive line; there are some big kids and we knew that," Jacobson said.
But even Corona's 6-foot-7, 310-pound lineman, Andrus Peat, didn't stop the explosive T.J. Thomas from scrambling to an 80-yard touchdown with 9 seconds left in the half. That proved to be the only score of the game for the Mustangs (2-1).
"He had one long run, I mean, that's it," Corona del Sol coach Tom Joseph said. "(We) played solid defense."
The Aztecs' final first-half score was etched when quarterback Billy Clemens hooked up with Avery Moss for a 33-yard touchdown, making the score 20-0 with 7:53 left before intermission.
"We just spent a half hour identifying the little things that we haven't been doing at practice or anything," Jacobson said after a post-game conference with his team. "I told the kids they've worked too hard to flush this whole thing down the toilet."
Clemens finished with 98 yards passing and the touchdown pass to Moss.
The Aztecs added two touchdowns in the third quarter — one on a 3-yard run by Contes, another on a 42-yard interception return by James Vaifale.
In contrast, the Mustangs' signal caller, Gabe Martinez, went 4-for-12 with two interceptions; the second of which was only the second play called after the halftime lightning delay.
"(The lightning) was not an issue," Jacobson said. "Actually, that gave us some time to make some adjustments and do some things. Obviously it gave them some time as well."

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

This is incredibly easy and just simply a wonderful meal! I froze the leftovers and it was delicious 2 weeks later!
This is SOO good. I think it's one of those recipes you can't possibly ruin. I didn't have cream, so I substituted some 1% milk, mixed with coconut water and a dollop of greek yogurt. I also substituted dry ginger and dry basil for the fresh. I'm sure it's better with the fresh ingredients, but it worked! My husband and I both agree that it needs to be on heavy rotation in our house.
great recipe I made it ,and liked it so well I shared it with a friend. she raved about it.

Chive Fest hopes to win over neighbors

How the Hornbuckles overcame heroin

Wilson isn't complaining about the hard work. "We're holding up great," he says. "Actually, we've never been healthier, physically. I mean, we've got tans and we're okay." He adds that the group's new prominence has resulted in white-glove treatment from the high-caliber production, stage and catering staffs attached to its latest tour.
Still, the band's sales breakthrough bears a bittersweet edge. That's because Doug Hopkins, a Gin Blossoms founder who wrote "Hey Jealousy," the band's biggest hit to date, and received at least partial credit on five other selections on New Miserable Experience, is not around to share in the spoils of success. He took his own life late last year.
Although Hopkins was a mainstay during the band's club-hopping phase, he is not listed among the Blossoms on the New Miserable Experience liner notes. His hard-drinking lifestyle had once defined the group: The term "gin blossoms" refers to the blotches that appear on the noses of chronic alcoholics. But his taste for the juice that fueled many of his compositions reportedly led to his ouster. An offer to contribute songs to future Gin Blossoms albums died with him.
At this point, Wilson is just plain tired of talking about the Hopkins situation. Rather than listening to questions that he says he's beginning to find offensive, he takes the conversational initiative. In so doing, he reveals more than he might have under direct interrogation.
Of his fallen comrade, Wilson says, "The band never would have gone anywhere if it hadn't been for him. A lot of the strength of the record--not exclusively, but a good deal of the strength of the record--is because of his beautiful songwriting. I think about him every day, and I'm really proud to get up there and sing his songs."
While Wilson freely admits that Hopkins was a better songwriter than he'll ever be, he confesses that the late guitarist's absence from the Gin Blossoms has actually been "a very liberating experience" and notes that "Doug was a repressive influence in the group." When pressed for details, Wilson claims that Hopkins "didn't like playing other people's songs." And although the Blossoms appeared to function democratically, Wilson suggests that Hopkins was not entirely objective when it came to evaluating the contributions of other members. "He had this superiority complex," Wilson states.
That said, Wilson continues to believe that New Miserable Experience is "a really great album." He admits, though, that he's been surprised by the recording's popularity--acceptance he never envisioned for himself or the group during the days when he worked as a record-store clerk in his hometown. "We're making money all of a sudden," he offers. "Which is an unusual development."
Equally unexpected has been the Blossoms' rapidly advancing star status, which Wilson says finally began to sink in when he heard last year from his older brother, a Peace Corps member who teaches high school in Poland. According to the vocalist, "He told me that at the Polish senior prom last year, when the DJ played `Hey Jealousy,' all the kids ran out on the dance floor and started screaming and dancing and stuff."
The students' reaction is understandable: "Hey Jealousy" is a heart-rending tale of romantic failure and boozy self-flagellation set to a relentlessly catchy guitar riff that blends equal parts Marshall-stack crunch and crystalline six-string jangle. Wilson knows the song won't change the world, but he says that when he hears reports like his brother's, "it really does make me feel like I'm not wasting my time."
This realization seems to have led to a new seriousness among the bandmembers. "We're not the same old drunken, lovable, shtick-ridden, frat-party-playing, yuck-it-up young guys that we used to be," Wilson says. "We're all around thirty years old." And thanks to nearly three years of live shows performed since the release of the group's first EP, entitled Up and Crumbling, Wilson believes that "we're really professional. We know how to write a set list now, and how a show should develop over the course of fifty minutes. We're just a better band than we ever were before."
Perhaps as a result, Wilson admits to feeling somewhat differently about his home turf. He enjoys coming home to his cats, great Mexican restaurants and his new-wave cover band, Best David Swaffords in the World (named for a former member of Seattle's Best Kissers in the World, now part of Mother May I, recently signed by Columbia Records). But Wilson confirms that he occasionally is shocked and depressed to see the same crowds that he used to play for hanging around in the same "crappy little bars" where the band got its start. Other locals seem to feel that the group's success happened overnight--as if it was "hatched on MTV," Wilson says.

Box-office figures are the new battleground Down Under. New Zealand-based group Vista is about to launch Numero, described as a faster and cheaper alternative to the current supplier of box-office data, Rentrak. Although no dates have been announced, the new service is expected to start shortly in Australia and New Zealand with other territories to follow. No doubt Rentrak will not take this attack lying down.
Cate Blanchett is keen to make the new U.S. drama Truth in Australia, so that she can be near her family. Truth stars Robert Redford as CBS journalist Dan Rather and Blanchett as his producer Mary Maples and covers the period when "60 Minutes" became involved in a scandal over a report that George W. Bush had evaded the Vietnam draft.
The Australian thriller Son of a Gun has been acquired by distributors in most major territories. Ewan McGregor stars as Australia's most wanted criminal. He befriends a young petty criminal who has just been imprisoned in the same cellblock, using the new guy in his plan to escape. The film opens in Australia in October, with the Netherlands (Dutch Filmworks) release planned for February next year. Release dates for the US (A24), Canada (Mongrel), U.K. (Koch), France (TFI) and other territories have not been announced as yet.
Made on a smaller budget, the powerful drama Drown has sold to the U.K. (Peccadillo), the U.S. (Strand) and Germany (Salzgeber). In this adaptation of a successful local stage play, three Aussie surfer mates go on a wild night of sex, violence and home truths.
