Before He Kills Again: A Veronica Vasquez Thrillerby R. Barri Flowers

- LendMe LendMe™ Learn More
From R. Barri Flowers, award winning crime writer and international bestselling author of Dark Streets of Whitechapel and Killer in The Woods, comes a gripping new psychological thriller, Before He Kills Again: A Veronica Vasquez Thriller.
FBI psychologist and criminal profiler Veronica Vasquez returns to her hometown of Portland, Oregon to assist police in apprehending a ruthless serial killer dubbed "The Rose Killer," who kills beautiful women in pairs, leaving a rose on top of each corpse.
Heading the investigation is homicide Detective Sergeant Bryan Waldicott. Veronica must win him over, along with the entire task force, and prove herself worthy of the job. Since losing her husband three years ago, Veronica had been focused on her work to escape the pain of loneliness and separation. A romance with Waldicott, who has issues of his own, complicates things for them both as they try to stop a serial murderer before he kills again.
When she begins to suspect that the new husband of her estranged sister Alexandra could be the killer, Veronica pursues that delicate angle and, in the process, becomes a target herself.
Before He Kills Again is tense thriller that will keep readers on edge till the very end.
�A masterful thriller set in the dark underbelly of Maui, with lots of fine action, down and dirty characters, and the vivid details of police procedure one would expect from an author who is also a top criminologist. A terrific read!" -- Douglas Preston, co-creator of the bestselling Pendergast series of novels on MURDER IN MAUI.
"An exquisitely rich and masterfully constructed mystery.... A savvy, smooth, and sumptuous read that's as hot as Waikiki beach sand." -- Jon Land, bestselling author of Strong Vengeance on MURDER IN HONOLULU
"It gets no better than this! R. Barri Flowers has written another thriller guaranteed to hold onto its readers!" -- Huntress Reviews on DARK STREETS OF WHITECHAPEL

"R. Barri Flowers writes with the passion and knowledge of someone who truly knows his craft. A steamy, non-stop thrill-ride through the seamy underbelly of Hawaii." -- Allison Leotta, former federal prosecutor and author of Discretion on MURDER IN MAUI
�Flowers once again has written a page-turner legal thriller that begins with a bang and rapidly moves along to its final page.� -- Midwest Book Review on STATE�S EVIDENCE
�A model of crime fiction.... Flowers may be a new voice in modern mystery writing, but he is already one of its best voices.� -- Statesman Journal on JUSTICE SERVED

This is one of the most poorly-written books I have ever read. Wish I could get my money back for this stinker. There are almost too many things wrong, I don't know where to begin. The writing is terrible, with the author using the wrong words constantly, and he or she has a clunky style, the story doesn't flow well at all. The "heroine," Veronica, is an idiot, plain and simple. She persists in keeping crucial information about one of the suspects from the investigators when it doesn't make sense to do so. What an airhead. She's not smart, or likeable, or tough, or anything. I just wanted to slap her. Also, there's no explanation later on for the weird behavior of her brother-in-law who comes on to her for no apparent reason. She never tells her sister, and this "plot point(!)" is never resolved. And the whole thing with the black vans with EAGLES painted on them? Really? And we're supposed to believe that not one, but two people have one? That part seemed like it would've made more sense in the 80s when everybody drove those black vans with the porthole windows. Just lots of things bugged me about this book, I can't recommend it. PLEASE don't waste your time or money.
Before He Kills Again is indeed a very entertaining read, one of those suspense thrillers that will keep you turning pages late into the night. At least, this was my case. I finished it in 2-3 days, as I couldn't put it down. The heroine, criminal psychologist and FBI profiler Veronica Vasquez, is a sympathetic character, smart and independent but with a gentle side. I found all the information about serial killers fascinating, and thoroughly enjoyed all the setups, twists and red herrings devised by the author. Just when you think you know who the killer is, something happens to deter you from suspecting. The love story between Veronica and Homicide detective Bryan Waldicott adds some spice without getting in the way of the mystery. The novel does have some graphic violent scenes, so if you're squeamish about this sort of thing, be warned. If you're a fan of thrillers about serial killers, you should pick this one up!
Having watched criminologist R. Barri Flowers on Investigation Discovery, I was intrigued to read his latest thriller novel and was not disappointed. BEFORE HE KILLS AGAIN is a heart pounding thriller about an FBI profiler matching wits with a scary serial killer. Flowers' shows his knowledge on real serial killers in carving out his crafty villain, separating from other writers who rely on pure imagination in their serial killers. Highly recommended, along with the author's thriller titles, KILLER IN THE WOODS, MURDER IN MAUI, and DARK STREETS OF WHITECHAPEL.

Gas cloud being `stretched like spaghetti` as it swings past black hole
Washington: Recent observations of the galactic center have revealed that parts of the in-falling gas cloud, which was detected in 2011, have already swung past the black hole at the heart of our Milky Way.
The cloud, known as G2 is now being stretched out like a piece of spaghetti by the black hole`s extreme gravity.
Due to the tidal force of the gravity monster, the gas cloud has become further stretched, with its front moving now already 500 km/s faster than its tail.
This confirms earlier predictions that its orbital motion brings it is close to the black hole, that it will not survive the encounter.
With the new, detailed observations, the astronomers from the Max Planck Institute for Extraterrestrial Physics (MPE) can now also place new constraints the origins of the gas cloud, making it increasingly unlikely that it contains a faint star inside, from which the cloud might have formed.
In 2011, MPE astronomers detected a gas cloud that is falling towards the black hole at the center of our Milky Way on a near radial orbit.
New, very sensitive data were taken in April 2013 with the SINFONI instrument at the ESO Very Large Telescope and have now shown that part of the cloud has already passed its closest approach to the black hole.
As the gas swings by the black hole, it reverses its velocity. The emission from this part of the cloud appears not red-shifted as does the radiation from the rest of the cloud, but rather blue-shifted.
"The ionized gas at the head of the cloud is now stretched over more than 150 light-hours (about 160 billion kilometers) at the pericenter of the orbit around the black hole, with the closest approach being about 25 light-hours (or a bit more than 25 billion kilometers)," Stefan Gillessen from MPE, who led the observing team, said.
"The pericenter approach however is not a singular event but rather a process that will be stretching over a period of at least one year," he said.

Rawr! Rose Byrne Is So Deadly Chic In Leopard It Hurts
There are a handful of actresses who seem to have a certain sartorial star-power—no matter what they wear, it just looks so effortlessly cool. Kate Bosworth, Kate Moss, Rachel Bilson, Emma Stone, Zoe Saldana, Gwyneth Paltrow...and now, Rose Byrne? We've always been a fan of the Bridesmaids star's sophisticated look, but we're getting some style goosebumps after spotting Byrne's Dolce & Gabbana leopard-print dress outside of The Late Show With David Letterman—a bit of a departure from her usual, more delicate choices. Sleek and a bit dangerous, we bet Patty Hewes would be at least a little scared. Do some, err, damage, girl! (Styleist)

This Is Our Jam: Jensen Sportag, "Gentle Man"
With a name that sounds more like a German Formula One team than electro band, it may surprise you to learn that Jensen Sportag are actually purveyors of blissfully effervescent synth-pop. "Gentle Man" sees the duo settled expertly in their groove, with a breathy R&B-inflected hook backed by Roland TR-909-sounding blips and whorls. Like Cascine labelmate Chad Valley, the duo keep things light, with an earnest romanticism that feels genuinely emotional. There's a reason why the song title is "Gentle Man"—two words; these guys aren't necessarily the classiest, but they are 100% sincere. If they ask to buy you a drink, you should let them.

Jon Lester's performance wasn't dominant, but it was plenty good enough
|04.01.13 at 6:45 pm ET
NEW YORK ' John Farrell described Jon Lester's outing as 'a good starting point.' That, along with the Red Sox' 8-2 win over the Yankees Monday afternoon at Yankee Stadium, is good enough for the manager '¦ and the pitcher.
'It's big, obviously a lot nicer than last couple of years to be on top 1-0 instead of going through a whole road trip without a win again,' said Lester, citing the Red Sox' 1-5 start to begin the 2012 season. 'Big for us to come in here and, like I talked about yesterday, get on a roll and set the tone early for us.'
Lester didn't display the dominance of a spring training that included giving up just two earned runs in 24 regulation innings, striking out 20 and walking just four. But, other than a rocky, two-run fourth inning, the lefty did resemble the pitcher of 2008-2011, rather than '12.
The Red Sox' starter finished his first outing of the season allowing two runs on five hits, striking out seven and walking two over five innings.
'I felt good. I had good fastball command, good cutter today. Just really didn't have anything else,' Lester said. 'Took me until the fifth inning to get a feel for a curveball or a changeup, and just really had to battle with my fastball and cutter. With that being said, I'm really pleased with the outcome with those pitches. It was good.'
Lester finished throwing 96 pitches (63 strikes), in large part due to a 34-pitch fourth inning. It was in that frame the lefty started showing some cracks.
The Yankees led off the fourth with a Kevin Youkilis double, with was followed with Vernon Wells' walk. The hosts loaded the bases on Ichiro Suzuki's single. Then, after a Jayson Nix strikeout, Francisco Cervelli ripped a single down the left field line, plating a pair to cut the Red Sox' lead in half.
To Lester's credit, he came back and got Brett Gardner to line out to right field for the inning's final out before getting two more strikeouts in a scoreless fifth.
'With the exception of that fourth inning, where he threw 34 pitches, I thought he came out and command the strike zone down,' Farrell said. 'But the lengthy inning, I thought, started to catch up to him a little bit, and after 96-plus pitches after five I felt like it was time to turn the game over to the bullpen. I thought Jon did bend, but didn't break in that two-run inning. I think more than anything it was a good starting point for him.'
Lester's catcher, Jarrod Saltalmacchia, agreed with his manager's assessment, stressing the importance of getting the team's ace out on the right foot.
'He looked good,' Saltalamacchia said of Lester, who didn't get a win in '12 until his fourth start of the season. 'Real downward angle with his fastball, mixing in the offspeed stuff. Made some big pitches when he needed to. But all in all, just staying down, keeping it aggressive '¦ and off balance.
'I mean it's important to all of us, not just Jon. We all feel for him. We all feel for what he's been through the past year and we know that's not him. We know that he's the guy you saw today. It's nice to see him out there just throwing like he always has.'

Consumer spending in the emerging world finally looks to have turned a corner, but cautious optimism is warranted, says Capital Economics.
In trading today, the Vanguard FTSE Emerging Markets exchange-traded fund (VWO) is up 0.5% and the Global X Nigeria ETF (NGE) is licking its wounds, up 2.7%.
Brazil telecom Oi (OIBR) declared bankruptcy Monday under the weight of overwhelming debt.
U.S. telecom tower players SBA Communications (SBAC) and American Tower REIT (AMT) tap Oi's network, and Citigroup analysts weigh in on what that exposure means for results.
The iShares MSCI Brazil Capped exchange-traded fund (EWZ) is up more than 1% this week, putting its weekly performance well ahead of the 1% decline in the iShares MSCI Emerging Markets ETF (EEM).
The headlines from Brazil, however, are hardly positive, with interim President Michel Temer fervently protesting allegations that he was caught up in the corruption scandal at state-controlled oil producer Petroleo Brasileiro or Petrobras (PBR).
Michael Hasenstab oversees the $49 billion Templeton Global Bond fund where his latest contrarian favorites include local-currency debt in Brazil and Mexico.
But he is sitting on a good amount of cash as he waits to see how the Brexit vote and U.S. interest rate risk play out.
There is an 80% probability Brazil's senate will impeach former president Dilma Rousseff in August, according to Eurasia Group.
But it could be a close vote.
High yield corporate debt default rates rose in the United states in May compared to April, but the rate was unchanged — and lower — for emerging markets. And that's a reason to consider bonds in the developing world.
There is risk posed by the United Kingdom's possible exit from the European Union, but the risk of a Brexit-induced recession is not as dire as investors might think, according to the head of research at Ashmore.
Brazil fuel seller Ultrapar Participacoes (UGP) announced an acquisition of helps it gain share in the face of the country's beleaguered state-controlled Petroleo Brasileiro or Petrobras (PBR).
Shares of Ultrapar rallied, while Petrobras shares faltered with the price of oil rising in midday trading.
The Templeton Global Bond Fund (TPINX), with $48 billion in assets, down about 1% this year compared to a 4% rise for funds in its category.
The fund's heavy weighting in Brazil was only part of the drag. Currency bets clearly soured.
Brazil's currency strengthened against the U.S. dollar Wednesday, sending the iShares MSCI Brazil Capped exchange-traded fund (EWZ) up 5%.
So what's going on? Brazil's new central bank chief promises to squelch inflation and made comments that central bank efforts to weaken the currency may slow.
Morgan Stanley analysts think credit card spending could double in Argentina over the next five years, and that three of the country's biggest publicly-traded banks, all of them with U.S. trading vehicles, could benefit.
The caveat, of course: consumer confidence and card spending will follow improvement in the Argentine economy, and that may be slow in coming.

At IBC2012, Adobe Systems introduced a new workflow platform that helps its clients use Adobe's video tools with centralized media assets across networks. Called Adobe Anywhere, the platform will ship next year and allows more efficient shooting, logging, editing and sharing of video.
The company said the new platform is fully compatible with existing hardware and network infrastructures and can be integrated into a variety of media asset management and other workflow systems. Adobe said it is ideal for news workflows, where reporters, editors and producers are stationed at different locations.
Michael Koetter, vice president of news technology planning and development at CNN, said his network is already using Adobe Premiere Pro for editing hundreds of hours each day. The new Adobe Anywhere collaborative workflow platform, he said, will "help strengthen team collaboration and enable our crews work virtually anywhere."
At IBC, Adobe also announced the expansion of its broadcast solution partners, which now exceeds 200 companies. New partners creating integrated workflows for broadcasting with Adobe software include: Arvato Systems, Axle Video, Cantemo, Chyron, Dalet, deltatre, Filmpartners, FlavourSys, EVS, Miranda (now a Belden brand), Nexidia, Pond5, Primestream, PROMISE Technology, Studio Network Solutions (SNS), Sienna, Softron, Square Box Systems and Vizrt.

— Core Services Being Added to Proximal Networking Software Framework —
BARCELONA, Spain, Feb. 25, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Qualcomm Incorporated (NASDAQ: QCOM) today announced that its subsidiary, Qualcomm Innovation Center, Inc. (QuIC), will extend the AllJoyn™ software development project with new core interoperable services to enable richer experiences for consumers. These new services will be available on devices with different operating systems and from different vendors.
The AllJoyn framework will include new services designed to address fundamental use cases to enable a truly useful Internet of Everything. Today, the AllJoyn SDK provides the core building blocks developers need to address discoverability, connectivity, security and management of dynamic, ad-hoc networks between nearby devices. With the addition of these planned AllJoyn services, manufacturers and developers will be able to utilize higher-level components that implement some of the most common use cases. QuIC expects to release fully functional versions of these core services under an open source license on AllJoyn.org and such services will include:
- Onboarding – a 'headless' or other simpler smart device can easily be configured via an intermediary, such as a smartphone application, for use onto a user's personal network
- Notifications – enabling a standard way for devices to broadcast and receive text, image and multimedia notifications
- Audio Streaming – facilitating an interoperable, open, wireless audio streaming protocol that allows users to stream their music across products from any manufacturer
- Control – allowing for devices to export their control interfaces, including rich graphical elements associated with them
These new core services will be upstreamed into the AllJoyn open source project by May 2013. It is expected that many Qualcomm Technologies, Inc. platforms and products will include integrated support for these services as well.
"A useful Internet of Everything will emerge when connected products, applications and consumer services can interact via a common communications protocol," said Rob Chandhok, president of QuIC. "We are driving toward this vision by adding new core services intended for very broad application but deliberately designed to be simple and basic so that they can be adapted to as-yet unforeseen future requirements. The opportunities for proximal networking in the home and automotive environments are a clear place to start; over time, and with the engagement of the open source community and manufacturers, we hope to extend AllJoyn such that any product with a processor can be made more useful to individuals and enterprises through simple connection and interaction with other devices, regardless of vendor or operating system."
The audio streaming and notification services will be demonstrated in the Qualcomm booth (Hall 3, Booth #3864) at Mobile World Congress from Feb. 25-28 in Barcelona. The audio streaming demo is via an Android multimedia player application from doubleTwist Corporation and will be showcased with the recently introduced Qualcomm Skifta Audio Module.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity. So finding a performance issue is like finding the proverbial needle in the haystack.

It is a mistake to assume that content development is an assumed talent, or that it can be an afterthought in the digital marketing realm. Content strategy is more than writing for the web. There is a science and strategy behind developing quality content for web pages, blogs, advertisements and social media. And although every successful copywriter must have a foundation of basics writing skills, such as subject matter expertise, an engaging style and tone, and basic grammar usage, there is much more to being a content king.

(Oct. 24, 2013) -- The UTSA Campus Activities Board brings a new twist this year to the 35-year-old tradition, BestFest. The event has moved to a later time and a different location -- 3:30 to 9:30 p.m., Friday, Oct. 25 at Convocation Center parking lot BK1 on the Main Campus. BestFest is part of UTSA Homecoming Week, Oct. 20-26.
>> This year, country music recording artist and "American Idol" Josh Gracin will perform at the annual celebration that is a fundraiser for UTSA student organizations. Guests can buy food from organization booths to support their projects and activities.
BestFest will be in conjunction with the Rowdy Rampage Fireworks Spectacular and Golf Cart Parade, which begins at 7 p.m. on the Convocation Center lawns. As one of the only schools in the United States to hold a golf cart parade, UTSA has hosted the parade of decorated golf carts since 1993 during Homecoming Week. This is the ninth year of the Rowdy Rampage Fireworks Spectacular.
This event combines a spirit rally, concert and Homecoming Golf Cart Parade all in one. While times are approximate depending on the weather and sunset, there will be a concert at 7 p.m., parade at 7:30 p.m. and spirit rally at 8:45 p.m. Live music will follow onstage after the fireworks.
BestFest began in 1978 as "a special salute to five of the state's outstanding festivals" including New Braunfels' Wurstfest, Corpus Christi's Buccaneer Days, San Antonio's Fiesta, the Texas State Fair in Dallas, and George Washington's Birthday Celebration in Laredo. It was presented by the student organization Variety 79.
In 1979, the event was said to be "a salute to five of the city's outstanding festivals: Fiesta Navidena, King William Fair, La Feria del Rio, the San Antonio Stock Show and Rodeo, and the Texas Folklife Festival."
In the late 1970s, BestFest included performances by the UTSA Brass Ensemble and UTSA Jazz Ensemble. The modern BestFest incorporates a Halloween theme with costume and booth-decorating contests.

LEXINGTON, Ky., Dec. 12, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Tempur-Pedic International Inc. (NYSE: TPX), a leading manufacturer, marketer and distributor of premium mattresses and pillows worldwide, today announced that it upsized and priced its offering of $375 million aggregate principal amount of 6.875% senior notes due 2020 (the "Notes") in a private offering to qualified institutional buyers pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "Securities Act"), and to certain non-U.S. persons in accordance with Regulation S under the Securities Act. The Notes will be issued at 100% of face value and will mature on December 15, 2020. The offering of the Notes has been upsized from $350 million to $375 million. The Notes will be general unsecured senior obligations of Tempur-Pedic and will be guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain of Tempur-Pedic's subsidiaries. The offering is expected to close on December 19, 2012, subject to satisfaction of customary closing conditions.
Tempur-Pedic also announced today that it entered into new senior secured credit facilities on December 12, 2012 with Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated, Barclays Bank PLC, J.P. Morgan Securities LLC, Wells Fargo Securities, LLC and Fifth Third Bank, as joint lead arrangers and joint bookrunning managers. The senior secured credit facilities are comprised of (i) a revolving credit facility of $350.0 million, (ii) a term A facility of $550.0 million and (iii) a term B facility of $870.0 million. The revolving credit facility will include a sublimit for letters of credit and swingline loans, subject to certain conditions and limits. The revolving credit facility and the term A facility will mature on the fifth anniversary of the closing, and the term B facility will mature on the seventh anniversary of the closing. The credit facilities are expected to close and fund in connection with the acquisition of Sealy Corporation (the "Sealy Acquisition"). The obligations of the lenders to make the initial loans at closing, and the loans subsequent to closing, are subject to certain customary closing conditions. Tempur-Pedic's existing credit facilities will remain in place until the closing of the Sealy Acquisition.
Tempur-Pedic expects to use the net proceeds of the Notes offering, together with cash on hand and borrowings under the new senior secured credit facilities, to finance the Sealy Acquisition and to pay related fees and expenses. Tempur-Pedic expects that proceeds from the sale of the Notes will be placed in escrow pending release upon receipt of regulatory approvals and the satisfaction of other conditions to the completion of the Sealy Acquisition.
The Notes will not be registered under the Securities Act or any state securities laws and may not be offered or sold in the United States absent registration or an applicable exemption from such registration requirements.
This announcement is neither an offer to sell nor a solicitation of an offer to buy the Notes or any other securities and shall not constitute an offer, solicitation or sale in any jurisdiction in which such offer, solicitation or sale is unlawful.

In addition to all the benefits, IoT is also bringing new kind of customer experience challenges - cars that unlock themselves, thermostats turning houses into saunas and baby video monitors broadcasting over the internet. This list can only increase because while IoT services should be intuitive and simple to use, the delivery ecosystem is a myriad of potential problems as IoT explodes complexity.

No matter how long you run, or how far you go, the one thing that never fails is that the past will catch up with you. If you run from someone determined enough, they will find you. And after three years, Manny finally found Jules. What can be done when the one she harbors feelings for is on the opposite side of the law as she is? It brings trouble, and lots of it. Who is Jules? The question haunted me as I read this story. She appears in the book and left me with many questions regarding the secrecy of where she'd been and what she'd been doing in the past three years. She'd been running from something, that much is obvious, and Manny thought he'd never see her again. What is it about their past? The angst begins to build from early on, keeping me interested and yearning for more. Both Jules and Manny have a strong need to protect the other, but there's plenty of secrecy and lies in the conflict to keep it interesting. One by one, the answers are revealed, and the action starts. Dodging bullets, staying ahead of danger which Jules seems to have been a part of at one time. Her determination to keep people out of her life (and safe) begins to crumble when she realizes Manny is in it for the long haul. The pair are strong, dynamic characters that stand out. Their qualities are the kind one would seek in a romance novel. Long Road Home is an adventurous romantic suspense novel. The plot moves quickly, and I never knew what would happen next. There's hardly a dull moment in the story. I was breathless as If I were running with them, literally sitting at the edge of my seat, anticipating the next move. I have the confidence in knowing that when I pick up a Maya Banks book, it's going to lure me in right away, and sure enough, Long Road Home does just that. The love scenes aren't nearly as intense as most of her other works, but they are definitely there. Do you love romantic suspense? Pick up Long Road Home, and prepare for an emotional reunion between two people that have strong feelings for one another but have to fight to be together. Originally posted at The Long and Short of It Romance Reviews
Good entertaining read.
Lots of laughs and suspense. A great read!
Maya Banks is one of my favorite authors for a reason. Her stories have great plots that dont get sacrificed in the highly erotic scenes. Like others have said, I too read this one cover to cover.Once again Maya Banks proves why she is the best at what she does. Out of the hundreds of books I read each year hers almost always receive 5 stars.
This author tells an outstanding story....complex, and full of twists. Her characters have depth and complexity as well. It is hard to beat a storyteller as good as Maya Banks.
Very fast pased read entire book within 24 hours
Long Road Home was a fantastic book. Filled with a lot of action and as you can come to expect from a Maya Banks novel, plenty of romance. I'd highly recommend this book.
Very good story line, but too much tragedy.
Enjoyed reading this one...Now I'm reading her KGI novel series. She's the best.
Another wonderful reading experience from one of my favorite authors! A must read!
I love this book. I will read this book more then once.
Loved the story and loved the characters. Great read!!!

Schools show spirit at Tiller Days Parade
Irvine's Orchard Hills School and Beckman High School were among the 130 groups that proceeded along Main Street in a stream of bands, colorful costumes, songs and dance routines during the recent Tustin Tiller Days Parade.
Antique tractors were a fan favorite, and representatives from Shriners Hospitals for Children wore bright hats and drove miniature cars. Beckman's band won first place for drum major, first place for color guard, and won the sweepstakes and Tustin Unified School District awards.
It was the fourth consecutive sweepstakes win for the Beckman band.
