30 Outstanding High School Football Games to Be Televised Featuring Teams From Northern and Central California

Greg Papa, Mike Pawlawski and Jim Kozimor to call the games

SACRAMENTO, Calif., Aug. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- A groundbreaking era in Northern California sports begins this fall when Comcast SportsNet West's second season of high school football shifts from the traditional Friday night games to a single, significant "showcase" game of the week each Thursday. Beginning on September 6 at 7:30 PM, CSN will feature a live "Thursday Night Football" telecast with Pittsburg (#10 in the San Francisco Chronicle's preseason Top 25) at CCS power and 19th-ranked Valley Christian (San Jose).

The weekly "Thursday Night Football" schedule of 10 live telecasts on Comcast SportsNet in association with the CIF (California Interscholastic Federation) will feature prominent high school football programs throughout Northern and Central California. They will be supplemented with 20 tape-delayed games televised on Comcast SportsNet and produced by Comcast "Local Origination" groups. Many of the telecasts will also be available via Comcast's popular On Demand platform, which is free to Comcast digital customers.

"Televising these outstanding match-ups on Thursdays will allow thousands of high school football fans throughout the region, many of whom will be attending Friday night games to watch our live, exciting, marquee contest before the traditional weekend lineup of prep football begins," said Comcast SportsNet Executive Producer Richard Zinn.

Free Website Lets Fans Choose National College Football Champion

Free Website Lets Fans Choose National College Football Champion

NEW YORK, Aug. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- FansPoll.com, the only website of its kind that lets fans choose who the next collegiate football champion should be, kicks off its new season today as it partners with top NYC entertainment marketing & production company, MSL, to make the free website a nationally recognized 'Football Idol' of sorts.

"The premise behind FansPoll.com is similar to the premise of American Idol or the People's Choice Awards," says George Brown, President and founder of FansPoll L.L.C. "Engage the fans, empower them and give them a turn to choose."

FansPoll.com includes 119 individual team web pages, one for each Division I school. When fans login, they are directed to their favorite team's home page where they participate in the weekly FansPick contest by selecting the winners of pre-selected games each week. FansPoll.com keeps track of the scores. At the season's end, the fan with the most correct picks wins the opportunity to serve on the FansPoll Selection Committee, which chooses the National Champion, plus 19 other National Championship awards such as Coach of the Year, Quarterback of the Year, and Newcomer of the Year.

At the end of the season, The People's National Championship Award is presented to the fans' winning school. The winners have been Auburn -- 2004; the University of Texas -- 2005, and the University of Florida -- 2006.

"It's the football fans' version of an Electoral College," says Brown. "Since football is the only sport that doesn't choose their National Champion on the playing field, we thought a qualified fan representative from each school might be the next best thing."

Additionally, each week when playing the FansPick Contest, fans can vote on the Top 25, and the results are posted on the site.

Within FansPoll.com's first week in 2004 36,000 people visited the site. Now, FansPoll.com gets up to 145,000 hits a month, with about 1,000 new visitors each day.

"FansPoll is ideally suited to MSL's mission to connect fans, brands and sports," says Shawn Garrity, President of MSL and a former offensive lineman for Syracuse. "In addition to providing brand development strategy and sponsorship assistance, we'll be incorporating the website into MSL's existing football properties, including our East Meets West All-American High School football game and the upcoming Gridiron Bash."

Austin's Popular Women's Talk Interview Radio Show, The Ladies Room with Lolis, Profiles the Film 'Made in LA'

Three Immigrant Women Stand Up To The Fashion Industry

AUSTIN, Texas, Aug. 31 /PRNewswire/ -- The Ladies Room With Lolis, Texas's first women's talk interview radio show profiles the film "Made in L.A.," the story of three immigrant women who stand up to one of Los Angeles's flagship clothiers, Forever 21. The radio show will air on 1650AM KHRO El Paso Friday August 31 at 11AM MDT and 1370AM KJCE Austin at 3PM CST on Saturday, Sept. 1. This film will debut on PBS stations across the country on Tuesday, Sept. 4. Who are America's immigrant workers? This documentary reveals new Americans and the human cost of fashion. "Made in L.A." follows the remarkable story of three Latina immigrants working in Los Angeles sweatshops as they embark on a three-year odyssey to win basic labor protections from a trendy clothing retailer. In intimate verite style, "Made in L.A." reveals the impact of the struggle on each woman's life as they are gradually transformed by the experience. Compelling, humorous, deeply human, "Made in L.A." is a story about immigration, the power of unity and the courage it takes to find your voice.

For Lupe, Maura and Maria, the long campaign to get the company to pay fair wages and accept responsibility for working conditions in the company's own backyard became a turning point from victimization to empowerment. Their story was captured on film. "Made in LA" not only documents the lives of these three amazing women, it also tells the story of immigration and the right that everyone living and working in the US should have to a fair wage and decent working conditions.

Director, producer, cinematographer and editor, Almudena Carracedo, created this film as a labor of love as it took five years to complete. Almudena was trained in film production in Madrid and Paris, worked as a television director in Spain and in 2000, came to the U.S. as an international scholar to work on her doctoral dissertation on U.S./Mexico border documentaries at UCLA. "Made in L.A." is her first feature documentary.

The Ladies Room with Lolis is an interview-format radio show created specifically for women and covers a wide range of topics as diverse as women themselves. Several nationally recognized guests have been hosted by Lolis Garcia-Baab during the weekend show. They include Dr. Betty Sue Flowers, Executive Director - LBJ Library; Martha Beck - Life Coach to Oprah Winfrey; Cindi Broaddus - sister-in-law to Dr. Phil; Greg Abbott, Texas State Attorney General; Christy and Turk Pipkin, producers of the award winning film, "Nobelity;" and Joe Gannascoli, character of Vito Spadofore on "The Sopranos". Lolis and her show are involved with notable organizations such as The Ronald McDonald House, Girl Scouts Lone Star Council, The Long Center of Austin, The Danskin Triathlon, The Miracle Foundation, and The Nobelity Project. She is in demand as a speaker with successful appearances at the Texas Conference For Women, the Pan American Roundtable, the Junior League Christmas Affair and the National Charity League.

Beckham Boosts Traffic to Official U.S. Major League Soccer Website to Over One Million

ComScore has announced worldwide traffic figures to mlsnet.com, the official website of the leading U-S soccer league. The site attracted just over one million unique visitors in July, 2007 -- up 117 percent on the previous year. This growth can be accounted for by the U-S arrival of former England captain, David Beckham, who was signed by M-L-S side L-A Galaxy at the start of the year. The former Manchester United and Real Madrid star is reported to have signed a deal alleged to be worth around 250 million dollars, making him one of the highest paid sports stars of all time. By the end of 2006, traffic to mlsnet.com had slumped to 230-thousand unique visitors, down from 478-thousand in July. However when L-A Galaxy announced the signing of David Beckham in January, traffic immediately jumped to 808-thousand unique visitors -- a 252 percent month-on-month increase.

SECOND QUARTER 2007 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS    Net Revenues  

Net revenues increased 14.4%, or Ps.82.8 million, during 2Q07 to Ps.657.1 million, as described below:

- Cable Television: The 9.7% growth in cable television revenues, from Ps.454.9 to Ps.498.9 was principally due to a 14.6% YoY increase in the number of subscribers to 753,161 with a penetration rate of 34%. This was achieved despite a 6.5% decline in average monthly cable television revenues per subscriber (ARPU) to Ps.223.3. This decline in ARPU was primarily the result of a 35.6% increase in Minibasic subscribers, who pay lower monthly fees, while Basic subscribers increased 7.7%. The average monthly net churn rates for cable television increased to 2.4% for 2Q07 from 2.2% in 2Q06.

- High Speed Internet: The 33.2%, or Ps.28.8 million, rise in high-speed Internet revenues to Ps.151.7 million resulted mainly from a 41.8% increase in the number of subscribers to 203,890, with a penetration rate of 11.4%. This was partially offset by an 8.0% decline in high-speed Internet ARPU to Ps.191.7, as lower price/ lower-speed Internet (128 Kbps) subscriptions increased at a faster rate than those of higher-speed Internet (512 Kbps). Average monthly net churn rates for high-speed Internet rose to 4.5% for 2Q07 from 4.1% in 2Q06, due to service quality limitations in the Mayan Riviera during the reconstruction of the network damaged by Hurricane Wilma and an aggressive competing service offer from Telmex.

- IP Telephony: IP telephony revenues for the quarter rose 77.5%, or Ps.12.6 million, to Ps. 28.9 million. As of June 30, 2007, there were 30,202 IP telephony lines in service, up from 15,316 as of June 30, 2006. IP telephony ARPU for 2Q07 was Ps.306.5. This does not include migration fees paid to Cablemas by Axtel for new subscribers which, if included, would increase IP telephony ARPU to Ps.339.4 for 2Q07.

Operating profit for 2Q07 increased by 16.2%, or Ps.21.2 million, to Ps.151.8 million, driven mainly by a 12.9% increase in gross profit. Operating margin rose to 23.1% from 22.7% in 2Q06, principally due to lower selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales.

Cost of Services for 2Q07 increased by 16.1%, or Ps.43.5 million. The increase in cost of services was primarily due to:

- A Ps.6.0 million increase in programming costs, principally the result of the 14.6% increase in cable television subscribers.

- A Ps.10.0 million increase in payroll reflected a lower capitalization of technical labor and to a lower extent an increase in the number of technical employees.

- A Ps.12.1 million increase in Internet costs, of which Ps.11.6 million was related to incremental cost for bandwidth, a 41% increase in the number of Internet subscribers and the rollout of Internet service in additional cities.

- A Ps.15.4 million increase in depreciation & amortization was related to an increase in fixed assets investments and a change to the estimate of the useful life of distribution lines. During 2Q06 the useful life of these assets was estimated at 25 years compared with 15 years in 2Q07.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (including depreciation and amortization) or SG&A, increased Ps.18.0 million, or 10.4% YoY to Ps.191.8 million. As a percentage of sales, SG&A declined 1,100 basis points to 29.2%, from 30.3% in 2Q06. The absolute increase in SG&A principally reflected the following changes:

- A 1.7%, or Ps.1.0 million, increase in selling expenses to Ps.58.2 million, principally related to the increase in the size of the company's sales force and an increase in commissions paid, which more than offset a decline in advertising expenses. The Company employed 1,453 salespersons as of June 30, 2007 compared to 1,141 as of June 30, 2006.

- A 12.4%, or Ps.13.0 million, increase in administrative expenses to Ps.118.1 million. As a percentage of revenues, administrative expenses decreased to 18.0% in 1Q07 from 18.3% in 1Q06. Administrative expenses in absolute values increased principally due to:

- A Ps.5.6 million increase in salaries and fees principally as a result of an increase in the number of administrative employees, an increase in the outsourcing of administrative tasks, as well as a lower capitalization of administrative costs.

- An increase of Ps.4.5 million in communications and travel expenses, due to more activity resulting from operational controls and the rollout of IP telephony

- Amortization and depreciation rose 34.7%, or Ps.4.0 million, to Ps.15.5 million for 2Q07, principally due to the increase in office equipment.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA for 2Q07 increased 18.6%, or Ps.40.8 million, to Ps.260.1 million. The adjusted EBITDA margin rose 140 bps to 39.6%. The following table sets forth the reconciliation between net income and adjusted EBITDA:

- Depreciation and amortization increased 21.7%, or Ps.19.4 million, to Ps.108.7 million, principally due to an increase in fixed asset investments and a change in the estimate of the useful life of distribution lines. Special items in 2Q06 included Ps.14.7 million in connection with IPO related expenses and Ps.12.6 million of accelerated depreciation associated with the costs of cleanup, removal and rehabilitation of the portion of the network affected by Hurricane Wilma.

- Net comprehensive financial results were an expense of Ps.72.9 million compared with an expense of Ps.48.4 million in 2Q06, principally reflecting lower gains from financial instruments and monetary position as well as lower interest income.

- During the quarter the company recorded a Ps.37.6 million provision for a higher income taxes and asset taxes, compared to Ps.12.2 million in 2Q06 as a result of a higher taxable income base.

Comprehensive Financial Results, Net

- Net comprehensive financial results were an expense of Ps.72.9 million for the three months ended June 30, 2007, an increase of Ps.24.5 million over an expense of Ps.48.4 million for the corresponding period in 2006. The increase primarily reflected higher interest income as well as higher foreign exchange and financial instrument gains in 2Q06, which more than offset the increase in interest expenses and loss from monetary position during that period.

For 2Q07, Cablemas posted a net gain Ps.47.2 million, a 221.9%, or Ps.32.6 million, improvement compared to a gain Ps14.7 million in 2Q06. Net income margin improved to 7.2% from 2.6% for 2Q06.

   FIRST HALF 2007 CONSOLIDATED RESULTS    Net Revenues  

Net revenues increased 15.8%, or Ps.176.6 million, during 1H07 to Ps.1,292.3 million.

- Cable Television: The 11.1%, or Ps.99.0 million, growth in cable television revenues was principally due to a 14.6% YoY increase in the number of subscribers to 753,161, with a penetration rate of 34%. This was achieved despite a 4.7% decline in average monthly cable television revenues per subscriber (ARPU) to Ps.225.8. This decline in ARPU was primarily the result of a 35.6% increase in Minibasic subscribers, who pay lower monthly fees, while Basic subscribers increased 7.7%. The average monthly net churn rates for cable television declined to 2.3% for 1H07 from 2.5% in 1H06.

- High Speed Internet: Revenues rose 33.4%, or Ps.56.2 million, to Ps.224.2 million. The rise in high-speed Internet revenues resulted mainly from a 41.8% increase in the number of subscribers to 203,890, with a penetration rate of 11.4%. This was partially offset by a 9.5% decline in high-speed Internet ARPU to Ps.196.6, as lower price/ lower-speed Internet (128 Kbps) subscriptions increased at a faster rate than those of higher-speed Internet (512 Kbps). Average monthly net churn rates for high-speed Internet rose to 4.5% for 1H07 from 4.1% in 1H06 due to service quality limitations in the Mayan Riviera during the reconstruction of the network damaged by Hurricane Wilma and an aggressive competing service offer from Telmex.

- IP Telephony: IP telephony revenues for the quarter rose 86.3%, or Ps.24.6 million, to Ps.53.1 million. As of June 30, 2007, there were 30,202 IP telephony lines in service, up from 15,316 as of June 30, 2007. IP telephony ARPU for 1H07 was Ps.282.8. This does not include migration fees paid to Cablemas by Axtel for new subscribers which, if included, would increase IP telephony ARPU to Ps.320.2 for 1H07.

Cost of Services for 1H07 increased by 19.9%, or Ps.105.0 million. The increase in cost of services was primarily due to:

- A 12.8% increase in programming costs derived from a 14.6% growth in cable television subscribers.

- A 24.2% increase reflecting a lower capitalization of technical labor costs, as well as an increase in the number of technical employees as a result of increase in video subscribers.

- A Ps.23.6 million increase in Internet costs, of which Ps.23.4 million are related to the incremental cost for bandwidth, the 41.8% increase in the number of internet subscribers and the rollout of internet service.

- A Ps.40.4 million increase in depreciation & amortization related to an increase in fixed asset investments and to a change in the estimate of the useful life of distribution lines. During 1H06 the useful life of these assets was estimated at 25 years compared with 15 years in 1H07.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (including depreciation and amortization) or SG&A, increased Ps.51.8 million, or 15.7% YoY to Ps.381.5 million. As a percentage of sales, SG&A declined 10 basis points to 29.5%, from 29.6% in 1H06. The absolute increase in SG&A principally reflected the following factors:

- A 13.8%, or Ps.14.7 million, increase in selling expenses to Ps.121.3 million principally related to the increase in the size of the company's sales force (1,453 salespersons as of June 30, 2007 as compared to 1,141 as of June 30, 2006), an increase in commissions paid as well as the number of call centers.

- A 18.6%, or Ps.36.6 million, increase in administrative expenses, including Ps.5.1 million from the increase in office expenses, mainly software maintenance and renewal of licenses, Ps.6.7 million from higher professional fees, insurance and travel expenses, Ps.5.2 million from increased communication activities and travel expenses and Ps.13.7 million from increased outsourcing of administrative personnel.

- Amortization and depreciation rose 1.9%, or Ps.0.5 million, to Ps.27.0 million for 1H07, principally due to an increase in office equipment.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA for 1H07 increased 13.7%, or Ps.60.4 million, to Ps.499.8 million. The adjusted EBITDA margin declined 71 bps to 38.7%. The following table sets forth the reconciliation between net income and adjusted EBITDA:

- Depreciation and amortization increased 22.2%, or Ps.40.4 million, to Ps.222.5 million, principally due to an increase in fixed assets investments and a change in the estimate of the useful life of distribution lines.

- Special items in 1H07 mainly included funds received from the insurance company for damages incurred by Hurricane Wilma. Special items in 1H06 included IPO expenses, extraordinary charges related to Hurricane Wilma, expenses related to the purchase of the financial partners' equity stake, consulting fees related to the search for a new strategic partner.

- Net comprehensive financial results were an expense of Ps.82.1 million compared with an expense of 90.8 million in 1H06 principally as explained below.

- During the period the company recorded a Ps.69.5 million provision for income taxes and asset taxes, compared to Ps.38.6 million in 1H06 as a higher taxable income base.

Comprehensive Financial Results, Net

Net comprehensive financial results was an expense of Ps.82.1 million for 1H07, a decline of Ps.9.4 million from an expense of Ps.90.6 million for the corresponding period in 2006. The decline primarily reflected a higher gain from financial instruments and monetary position, which more than offset the increase in net interest expense and the foreign exchange loss.
