Troubleshooting moving files

I have a rule that requires a match on two conditions:
1) Name starts with "AMSQUERYRESPONSE-", and
2) Date Added is not in the last 5 minutes (I've also tried date modified, date created and date last matched).
If the criteria match, the file is to be moved to Desktop.

As of now, the files just sit there; see http://www.screencast.com/t/POfsiOLVubpA for a look at them in Finder.

Here's the most recent log report:
2015-03-04 19:30:03.218 hazelworker[40710] ###main load address: 0x1007f3000
2015-03-04 19:30:03.219 hazelworker[40710] ###Noodle load address: 0x100901000
2015-03-04 19:30:03.219 hazelworker[40710] ###CK load address: 0x1008ca000
2015-03-04 19:30:03.734 hazelworker[40710] Processing folder AMSQueryResponseFile
2015-03-04 19:30:06.048 hazelworker[40710] Done processing folder AMSQueryResponseFile

How can I troubleshoot this? There is more to the story, but this approach (moving the files) is the simplest solution (or so I would think....if it worked.)

There is a troubleshooting guide stickied at the top of this forum. Also, do not trust the dates when viewing files in normal Finder windows. To get a more accurate date, do "Get Info" on the file. It may show that the dates are not at all what you expect.

Yes, sir, that did it! RULES PROCESSED IN ORDER. I was unaware that they could be changed; I moved the rule in question up one spot, and success! THANK YOU! (And it was interesting to see the 5 hour differential between what's visible in Finder and what "Get Info" shows.)
