Thieves stole a 400-year-old bonsai. The grief-

trees:
Please water them.
Over a period of several nights, a
team of bonsai bandits stole the
cream of Iimura's collection,
regarded as some of the most
exquisite in existence.
It was like losing a child,
Iimura said in a
Facebook post. The
only thing worse would
be if the trees weren't
properly cared for and
centuries' worth of work
withered away because
of neglect.
"I want whoever took the

they are watered. The
shimpaku lived for 400
years. It needs care and
can't survive a week
without water," Iimura said in the
grief-stricken post on her
Facebook page, referring to rare
junipers that were stolen. "They
can live forever even after we're
gone, if they receive the proper
care."
Clearly, the thieves knew what
they were doing in last month's
heist. They stole a total of seven
trees, but those were the most
expensive in Iimura's collection.
Combined, the plants were worth
$118,000 but could fetch much
more on illicit markets.
"We treated these miniature trees
like our children," Iimura said.

Iimura's husband, Seiji Iimura, is a
fifth-generation bonsai master
whose family has been cultivating
bonsai since the Edo period, which
ended in 1868.
Fuyumi Iimura's Facebook profile
is full of pictures of bonsai trees:
mature trees in their garden,
younger specimens and pre-
bonsai seedlings at a greenery
fair.
But if the bonsai were children, the
shimpaku was clearly the favorite,
a 400-year-old cover model of a
tree whose undulating lines are
straight out of a storybook.
Shimpaku junipers, which are
increasingly endangered in the
wild, are found in difficult-to-
access cliff areas, according to the
World Bonsai Friendship
Federation. Stories that sound like
mythical fables abound of bonsai
collectors risking their lives on
Japanese mountainsides to
collect the trees.
The Iimuras' shimpaku had a
similar backstory.
It had been taken from a mountain
more than four centuries ago, and
Iimura's family had gradually
culled the tree down to its current
size, three feet tall and more than
two feet wide.
It dotted posters for a bonsai fair.
Fuyumi Iimura snapped photos of
the tree topped with snow, its
needles covered in sparkling ice
crystals. They had hoped to enter it
3
News Corner
into a contest in coming months.
Despite its celebrity status, the
Iimuras didn't hide their prized
bonsai, according to the Asahi
Shimbun, a national newspaper in
Japan. They kept the farm open to
the public, so fans could be close
to the bonsai. For the same
reason, the couple did not
implement restrictive security
measures. That will change after
thieves made off with a miniature
tree that costs as much as a sports
car.
They also made off with other
trees, also rare shimpaku.
"An individual well-versed in
bonsai must have been involved in
the theft," Seiji said.
There is, of course, no
Interpol database of
stolen bonsai, but this
theft appears to be an
o rd e r o f ma g n i tu d e
larger than similar
thefts.
In November, a farm in
Saitama, Japan, had
eight bonsai pots stolen
- six months after a
similar heist, according
to the Asahi newspaper.
The farm was hit even
though it's equipped
with eight surveillance
cameras.
Last May, someone apparently
hopped the barbed wire fence of
Artisans Bonsai in Florida and
stole two trees worth $7,500,
according to Tampa Fox affiliate
WTVT. After the theft, owner Joe
Cain beefed up security measures
and hired an armed security
guard.Like many bonsai theft
victims, he realized that didn't
mean he'd seen his trees for the
last time. The bonsai world is a
small one, and people who have
been ripped off frequently see their
trees again on for-sale signs and
collectors' Instagram accounts.

What's a Functioning Alcoholic? How to Tell the
Difference Between Having a Drinking Problem &
Staying in Control
How much is too much?
Life is hard and alcohol makes us
feel like we can unwind and forget
our troubles for a while. It's
popularity is understandable, and
drinking cocktails, beer and wine
can be fun, but we tend to get caught
up in the excitement of the next new
alcoholic trend and forget to ask the
serious question: Are we
becoming a generation of
functioning alcoholics?
There are all kinds of justifications
for developing a drinking problem.
“I'm just a social drinker” but do you
socialize every day? "Wine is good
for your health” but how
much are you drinking?
Like any other problem,
the justifications have to
stop to acknowledge it.
So, when does
drinking become a
“problem”?
Is it only when it starts to
affect your health or your
life? Or is it before this?
Or, more importantly,
should it be before this
so that it doesn't
escalate into a life-
shattering dilemma?
Arguably, your daily
alcoholic intake should not exceed
the recommended amount given by
the CDC, which is “up to one drink
per day for women and two drinks
per day for men," other than on
special occasions. Sure, alcohol
can be fun and frankly, freaking
delicious, but everything good
needs to be moderated.
Drinking more than recommended
is generally just a risky practice. It
can be good for you to have a single
drink, relax, and socialize with
friends and/or family because
relaxing is vital to mental health and
overall well-being, but alcohol is
generally just empty calories that
you can literally get addicted to if
you're not careful.
Have you been concerned about the
amount you or a loved has been
drinking lately? Maybe it's time to
look into how much is too much.
22 Mar. - 28 Mar. 2019
When concern arises, take time to
discover the difference between an
alcoholic and a functioning
alcoholic.
What is a “functioning
alcoholic"?
The biggest difference between a
"regular" alcoholic and a
“functioning” alcoholic (sometimes
referred to as a “high-functioning
alcoholic”) rests in how alcoholism
affects said person's life.
Basically, the key difference is that a
“functioning alcoholic" doesn't fall
into the “alcoholic” stereotype
because on the outside, they still
have their life together. Their job,
family, social life, etc., are all normal
and fine sometimes even great but
they are dependent on alcohol all
the same.
Is a functioning alcoholic the
same thing as alcoholism?
Yes and no. Just because you're
“functioning” doesn't mean you
aren't an alcoholic. However, in
ways being a functioning alcoholic is
worse than what we think of when
we imagine full-blown alcoholsm. If
you're a high-functioning alcoholic,
you tend to be in denial that you may
have a problem, and it can be hard
for the people that care about you to
realize you have a problem in the
first place.
Functioning alcoholics tend to use
any success and the fact that their
life isn't in shambles to justify “not
having a problem” even though they
News Corner
clearly drink too much. Since a
functioning alcoholic doesn't fit into
the “I lost everything to alcohol”
stereotypes about alcoholism, they
don't think their large consumption
of alcohol is an issue.
However, a functioning alcoholic
generally has enablers that may be
covering up the negative sides of
their drinking problem, even further
justifying the alcoholism.
Has alcoholism become a trend?
With the increasing popularity of
alcohol-heavy weekend brunches
and happy hours, masked
alcoholism is the new trend.
In an article published
earlier this year, the
author explains how
“alcohol has joined
bacon and eggs as a
brunch staple, with
r e s t a u r a n t s
clamouring to offer
bottomless cocktail
deals to reel in
customers.”
It's not just drinking in
excess on Friday
nights anymore.
Alcohol has made
b e c o m e a n
acceptable Sunday
morning side.
People are also making up new
words to justify their drinking.
Urban Dictionary defines
“alcoholist” as: “Much different than
an alcoholic. Alcoholists do not have
a dependency on alcohol. They
merely enjoy drinking large amounts
of alcohol to reach that 'happy
place,' which usually means
blacking out and trying to figure out
what the hell happened last night.”
So, basically an “alcoholist” is
just an alcoholic in denial.
In an age that puts drinking on a
pedestal, it is important to ensure
your alcoholic consumption is
healthy and that you are not
dependent on alcohol. Learn how to
identify the signs of alcoholism and
draw distinct lines when it comes to
how much is too much.

Cleary's big cause for concern, Jason Taumalolo
eyes insane feat
New Penrith coach Ivan
Cleary will be wanting to give
his team a rev-up for Round 2
after some worrying
numbers in their loss to
Parramatta.
Meanwhile, Jason Taumalolo in on the
verge of achieving something only
one other forward has done before.
Storm 22 beat Broncos 12 at AAMI
Park
— The Storm have won 19 of their 21
round 1 matches and have never lost
a Round 1 match under Craig Bellamy
winning 16 straight.
— Melbourne continues
their domination over
Brisbane winning 16 of
the past 18 matches
(since 2011) including
winning the past six
straight.
— Brisbane has lost six
straight matches against
an opponent for just the
third time, having done so
against the Storm from
2011-14 and the Dragons
from 2005-2009 (both
were eight
straight losses).
Knights 14 beat Cronulla 8 at
McDonald Jones Stadium
— Newcastle snap an eight-game
losing streak to the Sharks getting its
first win against Cronulla since 2014.
— Since 2010 Cronulla has won just
one of 10 Round 1 matches; this is the
worst record in the NRL in this period.
— First time since 2013 that there has
been a scoreless first half in an NRL
game; Broncos v Sharks at Suncorp
Stadium in Round 18, 2013.
Rabbitohs 26 beat Roosters 16 at the
SCG
— The Rabbitohs have won seven of
their past eight games at the SCG.
The Roosters remain winless at the
SCG since 1999.
— In the 24 games between the
Rabbitohs and Roosters in Rd 1, both
teams have won 12 games apiece.
— Daniel Tupou has scored a try in
each of his past five games, the equal
longest streak of his career (Rds 21-
25, 2013).
Warriors 40 beat Bulldogs 6 at Mt
Smart Stadium
— The Warriors 34 point winning
22 Mar. - 28 Mar. 2019
margin is their biggest ever win of the
Bulldogs, going past their previous
best of 26 (34-8 in 2001 and 48-22 in
2003). The 40 points scored is also
their most against the Bulldogs in New
Zealand and their equal second most
at any venue.
— It was the first time the Warriors
have scored 40 points against any
opponent since
2016 (50-14 v Newcastle) and the first
time the Bulldogs have conceded 40
points in
a match since 2017 (12-42 v
Broncos).
— Adam Keighran scores the equal
second most points on debut in the
Origin Era (1980
onwards) with 16 points. Only Amos
Roberts in 2000 with 22 points has
scored more on debut. Keighran also
became the first Warrior to score a try
on debut since Pita Godinet in 2011.
Wests Tigers 20 beat Sea Eagles 6 at
Leichhardt Oval
— The six points is the fewest the
Wests Tigers have ever conceded
against Manly. It is also the fewest
points they have conceded at
Leichhardt against any team since
defeating Melbourne 22-4 in 2013.
— Robbie Farah scores his first
double since scoring a hat-trick
against the Sharks in 2011. It was the
first time he has scored at Leichhardt
since 2014.
— Jorge Taufua moves into outright
eighth on Manly's all-time try scorers
list with 73 tries.
Cowboys 24 beat Dragons 12 at 1300
Smiles Stadium
— Jason Taumalolo ran for a career
high 301 metres, becoming just the
second forward to do so behind Steve
16
Sports Corner
Price, who did so twice in 2007. He
also becomes the first player to run for
300+ metres in Rd 1.
— The Cowboys have won their past
four Rd 1 matches, all in Townsville.
While the Dragons
have lost their past three Rd 1
matches that have been played away
from home.
— After winning the final three
matches of last season in Townsville,
the Cowboys have now won their past
four at the venue.
Eels 20 beat Panthers 12 at Panthers
Stadium
— The Panthers ran for just 1046
metres, just the fourth
time since 2014 that they
have been held to less
than 1100 metres.
— The Eels 54 tackles in
the opposition 20 is their
most in a match since
having 59 against the
Raiders in 2015 and that
came in a Golden Point
match.
— Michael Jennings
scores his first double
since 2017 (Rd 25 v
Brisbane). It was also the
first time he has scored a
try against the Panthers
since 2014 and the first time he has
scored a try at Panthers Stadium
since scoring a double against the
Titans in 2012, while still at the club.
Raiders 21 beat Titans 0 at Cbus
Super Stadium
— Canberra holds a team scoreless
for the first time since 2013, when they
defeated the Eels 14-0 in Rd 19. It was
the first time they have held a team
scoreless away from Canberra since
2001 when they defeated the
Bulldogs 32-0 at the Showground.
— This is the seventh time in their
history the Titans have been held
scoreless, with the Titans being held
scoreless at least once in each
season since 2014. Only one team in
history has ever been held scoreless
in a match in seven straight seasons
(Gold Coast 1988-94). The past four
times they have been held scoreless
have all come at Robina.
— The Titans become the first team to
be held scoreless in a Rd 1 fixtures
since they themselves defeated the
Cowboys 18-0 in Townsville in 2012.

Three guys were talking in the local bar.
The manager was so sure that its bouncer
was the strongest man around that it offered
a standing $1,000 bet that no could beat
him. The challenge was that the bouncer
would squeeze a lemon until all the juice ran
out into a beer glass, then hand the lemon to
the customer.
Anyone who could squeeze even one more
drop out of the lemon would win the money.
Over the years many people had tried this,
truck drivers, weightlifters, karate masters,
and all had failed.
Then one day this geeky little fella with
heavy black rimmed glasses came into the
bar and asked if he could try the challenge.
After the laughter had subsided the landlord
said that it was only fair that the man be
given a chance at the bet, so he picked up a
lemon and started squeezing.
Once he was done he handed the remains to
the little man who promptly squeezed out 4
more drops of juice onto the bar!
Everyone looked on in amazement as the
landlord handed over the prize and asked
"What do you do for a living that has given
you such strength?
Are you a construction worker, weightlifter,
what?" "No" the man replied, "I work for the
IRS."

Telepathic Watch
A guy walks into a bar and sits down next to
a good looking girl and starts looking at his
watch.
The girl notices this and asks him if his date
is late. "Oh, no!" he replies, "I've just got this
new state-of-the-art watch, and I was just
about to test it." "
"What does it do?" "It uses alpha waves to
telepathically talk to me."
"What's it telling you now?" "Well, it says
you're not wearing any panties."
"Ha! Well it must be broken then because I
am!" "Damn! This thing must be an hour
fast." By A.G.

I was performing a complete physical,

requested. There was silence. He couldn't
even read the large E on the top line. I turned
and discovered that he had done exactly
