League Cup: Eden Hazard's late strike completes Chelsea's stunning comeback win over Liverpool

$

0
The brilliance of Chelsea's Eden Hazard ended Liverpool's 100 percent start to the season as Maurizio Sarri's side enjoyed a 2-1 win at Anfield in the League Cup third round on Wednesday.

Liverpool has started with six wins in the Premier League and a victory in the Champions League but they were knocked out by a superb solo goal from Hazard in the 85th minute.

Former Chelsea striker Daniel Sturridge, who had earlier missed an open goal, put Liverpool in front in the 58th minute with an acrobatic volley after Willy Caballero parried out Naby Keita's drive.

Emerson leveled for Chelsea in the 79th, slotting home after Simon Mignolet parried out a Ross Barkley header from a free kick whipped in by Hazard.

The goal was reviewed by VAR but ruled as fair although Liverpool manager Juergen Klopp felt it should have been disallowed for offside.

Sturridge then struck the bar with a fine effort from distance but it was Chelsea who struck the decisive blow.

Belgian forward Hazard, a 56th-minute substitute, won the game with a devastating finish after a powerful run in from the flank, weaving past two Liverpool defenders behind before firing into the far corner.

"It's a fantastic goal. Not only the beauty of it but for the time he scored it," Chelsea assistant manager Gianfranco Zola said.

"Not only is he one of the best in the Premier League - if not the best - but he is one of the best in Europe and the world.

"In my opinion we haven't seen the best of him yet. He's remarkable," he added.

The two teams face each other at Stamford Bridge on Saturday in the Premier League.

Elsewhere, West Ham United hammered fourth tier (League Two) Macclesfield Town 8-0 for their biggest win since 1983.

Grady Diangana and Robert Snodgrass both scored twice as West Ham ripped apart the Cheshire side who are bottom of League Two without a win this season.

In an all-Premier League tie, Tottenham Hotspur progressed to the last 16 by beating Watford 4-2 on penalties after the game, played in Milton Keynes, ended 2-2.

Isaac Success had given Watford the lead in the 46th minute but Spurs looked to have grabbed the win thanks to a Dele Alli penalty in the 82nd minute and Erik Lamela's goal four minutes later.

But Etienne Capoue's 89th-minute drive took the game to penalties, only for Capoue and Domingos Quina to fail to convert their spot-kicks and Alli wrapped up victory for Spurs.

Danny Welbeck scored twice as Arsenal beat Championship Brentford 3-1.

After the former Manchester United striker put the Gunners 2-0 up, Alan Judge brought Brentford back into the game but Alexandre Lacazette made sure of the win for Arsenal.

In an all-Championship match, Nottingham Forest beat Stoke City 3-2 despite having Diogo Goncalves sent off 13 minutes from time.

Two Tiger Sharks Tagged in Cocos Island National Park: Researchers also Tagged Hammerhead, Silky, Galapagos and Whale Sharks

Fins Attached is excited to announce a recent successful scientific expedition, two adult tiger sharks, four hammerhead sharks, one silky shark, one manta ray, and one whale shark were tagged with acoustic transmitters in Cocos Island National Park, Costa Rica. The movements of animals tagged with acoustic tags are tracked by acoustic receivers, or listening stations, deployed around Cocos Island and surrounding seamounts.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (PRWEB) September 27, 2018

Fins Attached is excited to announce a recent successful scientific expedition, two adult tiger sharks, four hammerhead sharks, one silky shark, one manta ray, and one whale shark were tagged with acoustic transmitters in Cocos Island National Park, Costa Rica. The movements of animals tagged with acoustic tags are tracked by acoustic receivers, or listening stations, deployed around Cocos Island and surrounding seamounts. Click here for a video of the expedition.

Fins Attached collaborated with the Costa Rican NGO Centro Rescate Especies Marinas Amenazadas (CREMA) and the University of Costa Rica’s Center for Marine and Limnological Research (CIMAR) on the Sharkwater. Over 130 tissue samples were also collected from 23 different species, including sharks and rays, for stable isotope analysis.

Tiger sharks were once-rare visitors to Cocos Island, but have become regularly sighted since 2009. “We are using an array of methods to study their habitat preference and migratory behavior, from acoustic and satellite tracking to photo ID”, explained Elpis Chaves, researcher with CREMA. “The common presence of a previously scarce apex predator seems to have had ecosystem impacts that we are just beginning to understand with these studies.”

Since 2015, researchers are deploying acoustic receivers in Las Gemelas, a seamount located 40 miles southwest of Cocos Island at 180 meters of depth. “We already have evidence of persistent movements of hammerhead sharks between Cocos and Las Gemelas”, said an excited Randall Arauz, Marine Conservation Policy Advisor for Fins Attached. “With more individuals of different highly migratory species tagged we hope to not only support the case for an expansion of the no-take area surrounding Cocos Island National Park, but also for the establishment of regional conservation policy in their migratory corridors.”

“Working to save highly migratory marine endangered species demands efficient regional collaboration, to analyze our results and hammer out a regional conservation policy”, stated Alex Antoniou, CEO of Fins Attached. “Fins Attached acquired the research vessel Sharkwater to be able to support this type of work, to provide a platform that facilitates the work of researchers and marine conservationists of the region.”
This expedition was led by Randall Arauz and Mauricio Hoyos of Fins Attached, in collaboration with Elpis Chaves and Daniel Arauz of CREMA, Tatiana Araya of the University of Costa Rica, and the regional NGO Migramar.

* Our consolidated results include certain intercompany eliminations.  See the “Segment Information” table below for an illustration  
of the effects of these intercompany eliminations on our consolidated sales and operating income.  
 

Net income for the quarter was $2.9 million or $0.28 per diluted share as compared to net income of $4.6 million or $0.43 per diluted share for the prior year quarter.  Included in the consolidated operating and net income for the prior year quarter was a $1.2 million gain on the sale of the Las Vegas store building.  Excluding the effects of this gain, operating income would have been $6.1 million or 5.3% of sales and net income would have been $3.9 million or $0.36 per diluted share for the prior year quarter, respectively.

“We forged ahead in the third quarter with the many growth and business enhancement initiatives that we have described in recent communications,” commented Rob Spilman, Chairman and CEO.  “While we seek to improve upon the 1.1% revenue decline and resulting drop in operating income that were posted in the period, we are focused on the advancement of our strategy as we seek to build on the success of the past several years.  The executional elements of our improvement strategy - our customer service model, product line extension, digital marketing, logistics, and store network expansion - are being driven in concert with the ultimate goal of attracting and retaining more Bassett customers through our vertically integrated model as time goes on.  Backed by our highly recognized brand, solid balance sheet, and industry leading speed-to-market capabilities, our blueprint for the future will benefit not only our store network but also the furniture retail channels that we serve in the open market.  During the quarter, we generated over $11 million of cash flow from operations while purchasing approximately $2 million of our common stock.  Finally, in support of these efforts, our Board of Directors increased our quarterly dividend by 13.6% in July.”

*Wholesale Segment                                                                                         *

Net sales for the wholesale segment were $63.8 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to $61.8 million for the third quarter of 2017, an increase of $2.1 million or 3.4%.  This increase was driven by $3.2 million in sales from Lane Venture, acquired during the first quarter of 2018, partially offset by a 2.7% decrease in furniture shipments to the Bassett Home Furnishings network and a 0.2% decrease in furniture shipments to the open market (outside the Bassett Home Furnishings network), as compared to the prior year period.  Gross margins for the wholesale segment were 33.3% for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to 33.6% for the prior year quarter.  This decrease was primarily driven by the addition of comparatively lower margins in the Lane Venture operation as both Upholstery and Wood margins were slightly higher year over year.  Wholesale SG&A for the third quarter of 2018 was $18.0 million as compared to $16.3 million for the prior year period. SG&A as a percentage of sales increased to 28.2% as compared to 26.4% for the third quarter of 2017.  This increase in SG&A as a percentage of sales was primarily driven by planned higher digital marketing and other brand development costs.  Operating income was $3.3 million or 5.2% of sales as compared to $4.5 million or 7.2% of sales in the prior year. 

“Wholesale shipments of Bassett branded products declined by 2% in the quarter,” continued Spilman.  “There are several interesting subplots that make up the story of the wholesale quarter.  Bassett Casegoods shipments continue to rebound as recent introductions resonate with retail customers.  Sales of these imported wood products grew by 4.7% in the period.  Bassett Custom Wood declined modestly compared to last year’s 23% growth rate of these domestically produced products.  On the upholstery front, shipments of domestically made Bassett Custom Upholstery declined by 1.7% versus the record third quarter of 2017.  Nevertheless, we are very encouraged by dealer reaction to the revamp of our signature Bassett Custom Upholstery program and look forward to introducing this product to our stores and independent customers later this fall.  Representing some 25% of total domestic upholstery shipments, this introduction has been a major product development undertaking. We continue to invest and experiment with various elements of our website and mobile digital marketing tactics.  Some of this work is foundational data collection that will provide us with the tracking metrics that will form the cornerstone of our ability to digitally track the consumer’s journey through the Bassett experience.  Once again, we will invest in these capabilities until they have been fully developed over the next few quarters.  With the addition of the Lane Venture volume, overall wholesale shipments grew by 3.4%.  Encouragingly, our wholesale backlog (excluding Lane Venture) at quarter’s end was 16% greater than last year.”

“September 24, 2018 marked the first day of the new 10% tariff on goods imported from China with the threat of them increasing to 25% on January 1, 2019,” added Spilman.  “Included in the over 5,700 items specified by the Trump Administration is all furniture and furniture components manufactured in China.  We strongly oppose the concept of these tariffs and have worked closely with our representation in Washington lobbying against it.  Fortunately, over 70% of what we sell is manufactured here in the United States with components that primarily are either made domestically or sourced from countries not subject to the new tariffs, with certain fabrics and leathers being an exception.  In addition, we have transformed much of our supply chain for internationally-sourced finished goods over the last few years so that most of those goods will not be subject to the new tariffs.  We have developed a plan to mitigate the cost increases, which includes instituting what we hope will be a temporary price increase on certain products.”

*Retail Segment*

Net sales for the 64 Company-owned Bassett Home Furnishings stores were $65.4 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to $67.4 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of $2.0 million or 2.9%. The overall decrease was due to a 1.7% decrease in comparable store sales along with a $1.0 million decrease in non-comparable store sales. 

While the Company does not recognize sales until goods are delivered to the consumer, management tracks written sales (the retail dollar value of sales orders taken, rather than delivered) as a key store performance indicator.  Written sales for comparable stores increased by 0.2% for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to the third quarter of 2017. 

The consolidated retail operating income for the third quarter of 2018 was $0.9 million as compared to $1.4 million for the third quarter of 2017, a decrease of $0.5 million.  The 55 comparable stores generated operating income of $2.2 million for the quarter, or 3.6% of sales, as compared to $1.2 million, or 2.0% of sales, for the prior year quarter. Gross margins for comparable stores were 52.2% for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to 51.9% for the third quarter of 2017.  This increase was primarily due to improved pricing strategies and product mix.  SG&A expenses for comparable stores decreased $1.3 million to $28.8 million or 48.5% of sales as compared to $30.2 million or 49.9% of sales for the third quarter of 2017 primarily due to lower advertising and employee benefit costs, and $0.5 million in prior year expenses associated with settling employment claims.

Non-comparable stores generated sales of $6.0 million with an operating loss of $1.3 million as compared to sales of $7.0 million and operating income of $0.1 million in the prior year quarter.  As part of the $1.3 million loss for the third quarter of 2018, the Company incurred $0.5 million in new store pre-opening costs, an increase of $0.2 million over the prior year.  In addition, the Company incurred $0.1 million of post opening startup losses compared to $0.1 million in the third quarter of 2017.  Also, the prior year period included a $1.2 million gain on the sale of the Las Vegas store building.  As previously stated, the Company’s retail expansion is initially costly.  However, the Company believes that site selection and new store presentation will generally result in locations that operate at or above a break-even level within a reasonable period of time following store opening.

“Written business in our corporate stores improved as the quarter progressed,” said Spilman.  “Written comparable store sales improved by a modest 0.2% but delivered comparable sales declined by 1.7%.  No new corporate stores were opened in the period although we did debut a new licensed location in Daly City, California, our fifth store in the San Francisco Bay area.  We are about to embark upon a robust new store opening timeline in which we will open six new stores and relocate two others over the next three quarters.  Three of the new stores will be in Florida as we enter the Miami, Naples/Ft. Myers, and Sarasota markets.  We have three existing stores in Florida and we plan to fill in the state over the next few years.  Our footprint from Atlanta to New York performs exceptionally well and we hope to bolt on 10-12 additional (including the aforementioned three) locations to the south to complement our strength on the eastern seaboard.  We are also excited about the prospects for our first Generation 3 store which opened in Frisco, Texas on September 12th.  Although only open for a short time, we are particularly encouraged with the level of customer traffic and the pace of written sales.  With an expanded design center, a new fixturing package and our newest technology, we seek to offer our consumers a tactile experience that builds on their initial interface with the Bassett brand on our website.  As time goes on, we plan to incorporate the fundamentals of the new prototype across a large portion of the existing network.”

*Logistical Services Segment*

Revenue for Zenith was $23.5 million for the third quarter of 2018 as compared to $24.9 million for 2017, a decrease of $1.4 million or 5.6%.  This decrease was primarily due to decreased revenues in both the middle and final mile operations.  The middle mile decrease was due to freight reductions from one significant customer. Final mile revenues began to decline during the quarter as Zenith began the process of discontinuing the final mile service in preparation for transitioning the assets and many of the employees used in that service to the Bassett corporate retail operation, where they will be used solely for the delivery of goods to Bassett retail customers.  This will result in reducing total revenue for the Logistical Services segment by approximately 20% when the transition is complete.  As the majority of those revenues have been from Bassett corporate retail stores and have historically been eliminated in Bassett’s consolidated income statement, the ultimate effect is expected to be a reduction of consolidated revenues by less than 1%.  Zenith’s operating expenses were $23.4 million or 99.4% of sales as compared to $23.8 million or 95.3% of sales for the prior year period.  This increase in expenses as a percent of sales was primarily due to increases in fuel costs coupled with reduced leverage of fixed costs.

“The labor shortage in the over-the-road transportation business, the loss of volume from a major customer, and the decision to transfer the home delivery services into the Bassett corporate retail division’s hands made for a tough quarter at Zenith,” commented Spilman.  “Despite the results, Zenith remains a fundamental piece of our model and we believe that the current challenges can be overcome.  At its core, Zenith’s ability to efficiently move furniture over the road remains best of class and in high demand.  The loss of volume from one customer was responsible for 176% of Zenith’s revenue decline in the period.  The freight line remains profitable despite higher fuel costs.  This part of the business is being constrained by a lack of drivers in the marketplace but we are having some early success in using our regional warehouse assets to do more short hauls to customers in zones that will allow those drivers to spend the night at home.  Our warehousing business is also profitable and in demand as we grew revenue by 4.7% this quarter.  Our decision to cede the home delivery business to Bassett retail was based on the 80% of total home delivery revenue that Bassett represented and the incompatibility of the white glove service demanded by Bassett consumers and the separate demands of the pure play e-commerce customers that we were servicing.  In essence, for the most part, Zenith home delivery personnel will become employees of Bassett retail and continue to do what they have been doing.  This will allow Zenith to focus on their core competencies with a reduced overhead burden.  In the end, the long haul freight excellence of Zenith coupled with its regional warehousing platform makes the business essential to Bassett’s service proposition and attractive to our other customers, especially in the unprecedented tight labor market in which we operate today.”

HSX Receives the Data Quality Award from the National Collaborative of Health Information Exchanges

SHIEC Recognizes Outstanding Achievement in HIE Program to Ensure Standardization and Usability of Clinical Care Documents

PHILADELPHIA (PRWEB) September 27, 2018

HealthShare Exchange (HSX) is the winner of the SHIEC 2018 Achievement Award for Quality and Quality Data, for its efforts in partnership with Diameter Health to standardize continuity of care documents (CCDs) provided to its participating healthcare members. HSX is the regional health information exchange for Greater Philadelphia and the Delaware Valley, including southeastern Pennsylvania and southern New Jersey. Diameter Health is a solutions vendor that enables clinical insight through the normalization, cleansing, de-duplication, and enrichment of medical data.

For its data quality program, HSX first applied specifications and scoring to its encounter alerts that it sends to participating insurers, healthcare providers, and medical facilities when one of their patients is admitted or discharged in the area’s healthcare system. Its services also include quality controlling, relaying, and storing CCDs, which carry more complex information on a patient’s recent medical history. For this challenge, HSX chose to partner with an experienced national vendor, Diameter Health, taking advantage of Diameter’s Fusion and Analyze products.

“We knew from the start that to create confidence in our services, it would be imperative that the data we provide to healthcare providers and insurers is consistently formatted and high quality, for usability,” said Daniel Wilt, Senior Director of Information Technology and Chief Information Security Officer at HSX.

Today, with about 7.5 million patients in its Master Patient Index and about 12,000 physicians and other healthcare providers in its Provider Directory, HSX sends CCDs downstream over real-time feeds providing the documents in a format that Diameter Health has helped to structure for easy, ready, dependable use by HSX participants. Sending tens of thousands of CCDs per month, HSX is creating a new level of informed care for its region, helping to improve the patient experience and reduce medical costs.

The Strategic Health Information Exchange Collaborative (SHIEC), the national trade organization of health information exchanges, announced the HSX distinction at the SHIEC18 Annual Conference held this year in Atlanta, Ga. in August 2018. The Achievement Award for Quality and Quality Data recognizes outstanding accomplishments in an HIE operation or program that advances or assists in quality measurement, quality reporting, quality data and/or quality improvement.

DMG Provides Flagship Mining Facility Update

Key Highlights:· *DMG completes construction of DMG-owned substation*
· *One of North America’s largest industrial mining facilities ready for energization in mid-to-late October*
· *DMG exercises option to purchase land and building*

VANCOUVER, British Columbia, Sept. 27, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- DMG Blockchain Solutions Inc. (TSX-V: DMGI) (DMGGF:OTC US) (FRANKFURT:6AX) (“DMG” or the “Company”), a diversified blockchain and cryptocurrency company, provides an update of its new flagship mining facility in eastern British Columbia.

DMG has completed construction of all essential components of its 85-megawatt substation. DMG began the process to commission its substation in mid-September. The commissioning is being orchestrated by DMG to meet the requirements of the regional utilities and power authorities. This process is expected to be completed mid-to-late October. As DMG’s COO, Sheldon Bennett, commented, “As soon as the commissioning process is completed, DMG is ready to energize.”

DMG is now actively in discussions with existing and prospective industrial mining customers for its Mining-as-a-Service (MaaS) offering. At this new facility, DMG can host in excess of 30,000 units of industry-standard bitcoin miners.

As DMG has constructed its own private substation, the Company believes its usage will have no material impact on the power needs of the local community. CEO Dan Reitzik commented, “DMG is tremendously excited about the completion of this new facility and is grateful that we can continue to meaningfully contribute to the local economy and to be a new source of employment in this region.”

*DMG Purchases its Flagship Facility Land and Building*

DMG also announces that it has exercised its option to purchase its flagship facility comprised of 34 acres of land with an existing 27,000 square foot building, located in British Columbia.

*Stock Options*

DMG also announces that its Board of Directors has approved the re-pricing of 2,726,666 stock options to purchase common shares (the “Options”), which were issued at a price of $0.80 on February 8, 2018, to an exercise price of $0.40.  This new price more accurately reflects the current blockchain marketplace. All other terms remain unchanged. This re-pricing is subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval, and to disinterested shareholder approval of 600,000 of these Options which were issued to directors and officers, at the Company’s upcoming Annual General & Special Meeting being held on October 25, 2018.
