Lamar Jackson was the unanimous MVP of the 2019-2020 NFL season, but Patrick Mahomes was clearly the most valuable player in the playoffs while leading the Kansas City Chiefs to a Super Bowl title. NFL MVP odds for the 2020-21 season have been up for months, including a full list of favorites for the Most Valuable Player award, and it should come as no surprise that those talented young QBs are atop the board.
Russell Wilson, Dak Prescott, Tom Brady, and Deshaun Watson are also high on a list that is dominated by QBs per usual. The last non-QB to win MVP was Adrian Peterson in 2012 when he ran for over 2,000 yards.
NFL MVP odds 2020
2020 NFL MVP odds report
Patrick Mahomes: Rarely do you see a player with +300 odds to win NFL MVP so early in the season. Yet that is the hype that surrounds Mahomes, a breathtaking talent in a perfect situation with Andy Reid calling the plays and speedy receivers to target all over the field. If he stays healthy and wins matchups against other high-profile QBs, Mahomes should grab his second award.
Lamar Jackson: The Ravens were so impressive in Week 1 that they’re now tied with the Chiefs as the betting favorites to win the Super Bowl with +550 odds at DraftKings Sportsbook. Jackson remains an efficient passer with dynamic rushing ability and he’s fully capable of winning consecutive MVP awards.
Russell Wilson: The most likely player to overtake Mahomes and Jackson in the MVP race is Wilson. If the Seahawks coaching staff simply lets him throw early and often, Wilson has proven that he’s one of the most efficient and clutch passers in the game, and demonstrated it again by completing 31 of 35 passes for 322 yards and 4 TDs in a Week 1 win.
Aaron Rodgers: His numbers dropped precipitously last season, but Rodgers still has MVP-caliber talent. If Matt LaFleur allows him to throw 40-plus times each time the Packers are challenged, Rodgers could push for his third MVP.
Kyler Murray: Beating the mighty 49ers in his season debut has thrust Murray into the MVP conversation with +1400 odds at DK. That seems a bit hasty considering he completed 14 of his 26 passes to DeAndre Hopkins, who himself would deserve Offensive POY and MVP votes if he keeps up that pace.
Dak Prescott: Prescott had a fantastically efficient 2019-2020 season with 30 TDs, 11 picks and a whopping 4,902 passing yards. The Cowboys dropped their opener, though, causing his odds to drop from +1400 to +2000 at DK Sportsbook.
Cam Newton: The Patriots Week 1 game plan catered to Newton’s strengths and gave him ample opportunities to finish drives, which he did twice with rushing touchdowns. Keep up that pace on a team with the toughest schedule in the NFL, and you’ve earned consideration in the MVP race.
Tom Brady: We’ve seen Brady bounce back with vengeance before, and the Bucs will look to do just that after getting beaten soundly by the Saints in Week 1. That said, Brady has now thrown a Pick Six in three straight games going back to last season and it’s fair to wonder if he’s washed at age 43.
Deshaun Watson: Playing without DeAndre Hopkins will put more on Watson’s shoulders and it might lead to a diminished statistical output. The Texans would prefer to be a run-first team and that makes it hard for him to put up gaudy numbers.
Josh Allen: Aside from two fumbles and two missed throws in the red zone, Allen was spectacular in his season debut. Granted it came against the lowly Jets, but his potential as a dual threat QB on a top 10 team gives him an outside shot at MVP.
Matt Ryan: The Falcons posted the highest pass-play percentage (66.97%) last season and their porous defense should force them into more shootouts this season. That scenario played out in Week 1, forcing Ryan to throw for a whopping 450 yards. Of course, he’ll have to win those shootouts to earn any hardware.
Derrick Henry: The reigning rushing champ enters the season with the best MVP odds among non-QBs. Tennessee posted the third-highest rush-play percentage (48.8%) last year and will look to ride Henry into the playoffs once again.
NFL MVP picks and predictions
MVP futures betting
NFL MVP bets are among the most popular in the futures betting market every year, and now it’s becoming easier than ever to plunk some money down on your best bet to win the award in 2019.
All player markets currently offered are at plus-money in terms of odds. This means bettors correctly pegging the eventual award winner will make several times their original wager.
One trend will be very apparent as we delve into this year’s top candidates: it’s highly probable the MVP award ultimately goes to a quarterback. Eleven of the last 13 MVPs have been QBs. Running backs LaDainian Tomlinson (2006) and Adrian Peterson (2012) are the only ones to break the grip over that span. It took monumental, career seasons to do it.
Then, of active signal-callers, there have been only two repeat winners during that span – Tom Brady (2007, 2010, 2017) and Aaron Rodgers (2011 and 2014).
How to bet NFL MVP futures
Maximizing a wager on any future outcome pertaining to a sporting event — or in the case of the NFL MVP award winner, an end-of-season occurrence – is heavily predicated on timing. By their very nature, odds on futures wagers are subject to varying degree of fluctuation. In the case of player-level futures like NFL MVP, a number of different factors can influence the trajectory of his futures odds as the games unfold week to week.
Any multi-week injury to the player naturally will cause odds to get much longer. Any serious MVP candidate essentially must play as close to 16 games as possible in order to accrue the kind of numbers necessary to have a realistic chance at the award. A player that begins the season considerably underperforming or goes into an in-season, multi-game funk will also see their odds drop.
Naturally, a reverse effect is seen if a player begins to significantly outperform preseason expectations. Another factor that can particularly shoot quarterbacks up the ladder is when a supporting offensive cast turns out to be even better than expected. Such a development often helps the candidate’s own numbers to an appreciable degree.
Where can you bet on MVP futures?
NFL MVP futures markets are available at all legal, regulated sportsbooks. NFL MVP futures are located behind the NFL tab in online sportsbook platforms, under a specific Futures tab. Typically, NFL MVP futures may often be found behind a “Player Futures” or “Awards” tab. Within that section, bettors will find a listing of all of the “wagerable” players in that betting market, along with their corresponding odds at that point in time.
As alluded to earlier, futures wagers are often listed at “plus-money”. All NFL 2019 MVP player markets currently offered are at plus-money in terms of odds. This means bettors correctly pegging the eventual award winner will make several times their original wager.
Take the example of the preseason pacesetter at both FD and DK sportsbooks — Chiefs quarterback Patrick Mahomes. The third-year star’s odds opened at +400 at DraftKings Sportsbook. Those who accurately predicted Mahomes to repeat as MVP this season at those odds would win $400 for every $100 they bet at that price.
How is the NFL MVP award typically decided?
The officially recognized NFL MVP award – the one that NFL MVP futures wagers are graded on – is that which is awarded by the Associated Press. A panel of 50 sportswriters conduct their vote at the conclusion of the regular season and prior to the beginning of the playoffs. The timing ensures that the regular season is the sole performance sample that is considered when the vote is conducted. The announcement of the MVP award winner occurs the day before the Super Bowl.
Despite the “spirit” of the term “most valuable player” – specifically, the characterization bestowed on a player whose absence would have the greatest negative impact on his team – that in itself is usually not enough without sufficient accompanying statistical reinforcement. Look no further than 2019 as an example. Based on the purest “most valuable player” definition, a strong case could have been made for other players besides Jackson.
How far would the Titans have gotten without Ryan Tannehill? How far would the 49ers have gotten without Jimmy Garoppolo? And how far would the Packers have gotten without Rodgers?
However, stats are usually the tie-breaker. In Jackson’s case, his 4,333 total yards and 43 total touchdowns rightfully held tremendous sway with the voters. And, combined with Jacksons’ unquestioned value to his team, it was enough to carry him to the award.

In Lindsay, Ont., the recently re-branded radio station Bounce 91.9 (formerly Bob FM) has been running a promotion in conjunction with the Kawartha Lakes Food Source. Called Donate a Dish, the project helps struggling restaurants in the area and people who need meals.
For every $600 that is donated to the charity there are 40 fresh meals created to be given to those in need. These are put together by local restaurants that have been hit hard by the pandemic. It’s a win-win situation.
Agents and staff at the Lindsay Coldwell Banker RMR office took some of their client appreciation fund money and donated $600 to the cause. The brokerage has challenged other real estate companies in the Kawarthas to do the same.

- The paper is exquisite. The cardstock & binding is very nice. Better by an order of magintuted then some others. White Wolf's printers come to mind.
- The artist on this project really captured the feel of his world
- Carcosa feels very much both a hands on campaign & toolbox.
- The whole book feels better organized & looks pretty easy to slot into any retroclone.
- Lamentations of the Flame Princess might be worth investigating further. What are some of the pros & cons with the system?
- The hexcrawling aspect of the game is a definite pro that may be easily adapted to the OSR approach to adventure writing
- Nerdgasm with this book. Its everything that I thought it would be & more.Can't wait to run this game!
- Geoffrey's take on the Mythos is different from both Deities & Demigods & Chaosium's Call of Cthulhu. The playing field is much closer & much more invasive than the above games. The Mythos impacts the everyday lives of everything thing on Carcosa
- The setting feels much more mature to me. Yes this is an 'over the top' campaign setting but one that if used correctly will make the game not break it.

cons of LoTFP: its just b/x with some house rulesReplyDelete
pros: some of the house rules are pretty good, notably encumbrance, and its version of the thief
another pro: you can get the rules for free
Welcome aboard,graham! I'm going to have to check more deeply into the thief! Thanks for the comments man. There will be more to come!ReplyDelete
Wonder how well this would work with crypts and things?ReplyDelete
Thanks for the comment Bill! Very easily actually most of the Lamentations of Flame Princess stuff from what I've seen is very cross convertible with little or no effort on the DM's part!ReplyDelete
LotFP is much more than "just b/x with some house rules" -- unless "just...with some house rules" means tweaked, reworked & improved in every way.ReplyDelete
Pros: Too many to list them all. But the previously mentioned encumbrance rules and Specialist class are certainly among them.
Cons: Depending on your personal preferences, you might consider both race-as-class and only Fighters ever getting any better at fighting to be cons.

Trump Campaign Press Release - U.S. Representative Farenthold Endorses Donald Trump for President
Congressman Blake Farenthold (R-TX-27) today formally endorsed presumptive Republican Presidential Nominee Donald J. Trump.
Although originally a supporter of fellow Texan, Senator Ted Cruz, Congressman Farenthold says the time for contentious debate has passed and it is now time for the Republican Party to unify around its duly elected nominee.
"I think we're going to see some conservative motion in the country," said Farenthold on MSNBC in May. "The thing I'm really most excited about is Donald Trump is a deal maker. I spent my six years in Congress with a 'my way or the highway' president. I want a dealmaker who will come in and will get some stuff done and I think that's what the American people want. They're tired of gridlock in Washington."
Farenthold said he believes Donald Trump should not stop talking about the scandals that have plagued the campaign of presumptive Democrat nominee Hillary Clinton.
"Given the choice between Mr. Trump and Secretary Clinton, this is a no-brainer. I don't want someone in the oval office that is 'extremely careless,'" Farenthold said.
Farenthold took office in 2010 during the "Tea Party" wave that saw the Republican Party take over the leadership of the House of Representatives. He defeated 28-year incumbent Solomon Ortiz in a predominately Hispanic congressional district. He has been re-elected in 2012 and 2014 by a 52% and 56% majority respectively.
Farenthold serves on the Transportation Committee, Oversight and Government Reform Committee, and the Committee on the Judiciary.

text: Sweet. Sugary. Sticky. Spring. Seabury Hall’s Annual Craft Fair is nestled into the coziest spot of the year; it’s that time of year where teachers are assigning movies and coloring activities to 17-yr old’s because the sunny days are too enticing even for this college prep school. One of my favorite spots at this springtime bonanza is La Patisserie, where french goodies are served to the tune of lilting classical music in the shade. The fair-style games are always a good way for a few laughs and lots of prizes; unlike at the county fair, these games are actually winnable, and there’s a pretty good chance you’ll be headed home with an mammoth-sized teddy bear. The slip-n-slide swooping down the hill is also an enjoyable pass-time. It’s admittedly not as exciting as the time(s) some bored seniors rolled down the hill in a trashcan, but it is a good bit safer. The craft fair and art displays boast beautiful, enjoyable works that make for ideal mothers day gifts. Don’t forget to stop by the flower and garden sale either, as well as the massive rummage sale. Students and other performers will occupy the stage during the day, providing fun entertainment for this outdoor event. This event supports a scholarship fund for deserving students who otherwise would not have the chance to attend this school. Come by on May 8th, anytime between 9am and 5pm. Children ages twelve and under enter free; Admission is $3 for adults; call Gayle Hart at 572-7235 for more info.

DUBLIN, 25 November 2021 / PRNewswire / – The “Acne Drugs Market by Therapeutic Class, Formulation, Type, Acne Type, and Distribution Channel: Global Opportunity Analysis and Industry Forecast, 2021-2030” the report was added to ResearchAndMarkets.com offer.
At an estimated value of over $ 91.38 billion In 2020, the global acne drugs market is expected to thrive at a CAGR of 3.9% and valued at over $ 14.26 billion over the forecast year 2021-2030.
Acne is the most common skin condition, usually caused by changes in the structures of the skin. It affects nearly millions of adolescents around the world. Hence, there is a huge demand for topical and oral acne medications. Topical medications include creams, gels, and ointments made up of retinoids, benzoyl peroxide, salicylic acid, and others. On the other hand, oral acne medications are relatively more effective when moderate to severe acne does not respond to topical agents.
Market dynamics and trends
Many factors such as changing hormone levels, increasing teenage population, and increasing adoption of skin care products are dramatically driving the growth of the global acne drugs market. In addition, excessive production of oil from sebaceous glands and unhygienic lifestyle cause acne to appear, which has a positive impact on the growth of the market.
However, side effects such as skin irritation, dry skin, and skin erythema or redness due to the use of acne drugs are expected to hamper the growth of the market. On the contrary, increasing R&D in skin care as well as high market potential in untapped emerging countries are expected to be opportunistic for market growth. Additionally, the increasing frequency and severity of acne is one of the major factors that will fuel the market size during the forecast period.
Market segments and scope of the study:
The global acne drugs market share is segmented on the basis of therapeutic class, formulation, type, type of acne, distribution channel and geography. On the basis of therapeutic class, the market is categorized into Retinoids, Antibiotics, Benzoyl Peroxide, Salicylic Acid, and others. Based on formulation, the market is segmented into topical drugs and oral drugs. Based on type, the market is divided into prescription and over-the-counter drugs.
On the basis of acne type, the market is divided into non-inflammatory acne and inflammatory acne. According to the distribution channel, it is classified into retail stores, e-commerce and drugstores and drugstores. The geographic fragmentation and analysis of each segment includes regions comprising North America, Europe, Asia Pacific and ROW.
In terms of geography, North America held a large share of the market in 2019. This is attributed to the increase in the use of skin care products and the increased awareness of natural acne drugs propelled the demand for acne drugs in this region. However, Asia Pacific is expected to grow rapidly with increasing market size due to factors such as increased healthcare spending and increased demand for acne treatments in developing countries in the region.
The maximum growth opportunities make the acne drugs market very competitive. Some of the major players in the market are Almirall SA., Bausch Health Companies Inc., Galderma SA, Mayne Pharma Group Limited, GlaxoSmithKline Plc (GSK), Mylan NV, Pfizer Inc., Johnson & Johnson, Sun Pharmaceutical Industries Limited, Teva Pharmaceutical Industries Ltd. and many others. A number of development strategies have been adopted by companies in recent years. For example, in june 2020, Bausch Health Companies Inc. and Ortho Dermatologics, announced that ARAZLO (tazarotene) lotion is commercially available for healthcare professionals in the United States. ARAZLO is tazarotene acne treatment medication which is available as a lotion.
Also in February 2020, Almirall, SA (ALM) announced the development of Seysara (sarecycline), the advanced oral antibiotic derived from tetracycline for the treatment of inflammatory lesions of moderate to severe non-nodular acne vulgaris. The product is expected to be submitted to the National Medical Products Administration (NMPA) in 2023.

- What Are the Cases of Financial Lies?
- Signs Your Spouse Is Telling Financial Lies
- Why Does Your Spouse Tell You Financial Lies?
- What to Do When You Find Out Your Spouse Is Lying Financially
- FAQ About Financial Lies
Sometimes marriages don’t go as well as thought and sometimes you run into problems. Financial lies are one of them. Financial lies are when your partner lies to you about money or tries to hide it. There are some things you should do and know when faced with a situation like this.
Victoria Milan has researched and prepared in-depth content for you today. In this way, you can find out if your spouse is cheating on you financially or what to do if your spouse is cheating on you financially. Now, first of all, “What are Financial Lies?” Let’s learn about it first.
What are Financial Lies?
A financial lie is when one or both partners lie about money. For example, one of the partners is keeping important debts in a different account and the other partner is not aware of it. This is an example of a financial lie.
What Are the Cases of Financial Lies?
Lying: Lying about your spouse’s expenses and income.
Keeping Secrets: Your spouse has secret bank accounts and debts.
Exhibiting a Controlling Attitude: Your spouse takes responsibility for all payments and does not let you know anything about it.
Defensive Attitude: When you want to talk about money, your partner refuses and does not talk.
Distrust: You don’t trust your partner.
Sudden Changes: Sudden changes in your spouse’s spending and spending outside of their habits.Financial Discussions: Your more and more frequent discussions of financial matters.
Signs Your Spouse Is Telling Financial Lies
1 – Making Big Spending
If your spouse has withdrawn a large amount of money and has not informed you about it, it is a financial lie. When your spouse uses cash, you don’t know what he’s buying or spending. The best way to understand such a situation is to review your bank statements. In this way, you can understand whether a large amount of money has been withdrawn. And you can also learn if your spouse is telling financial lies.
2 – Showing Immediate Reactions
If your spouse has a sudden and high-volume reaction to financial matters, can be telling financial lies. For example, getting angry and reacting to this situation even though nothing has changed about bills and daily expenses. In such a situation, there may be two reasons why your spouse may be lying financially. The first is that your debts have increased. The second is that he spends money in secret from you in different places. If you have been encountering such situations frequently lately, your spouse may be telling you financial lies.
3 – New Things
Is your partner showing up in new clothes you’ve never seen before? Or encountering new and expensive jewelry or watches? Then your spouse may be telling you financial lies. Going on expensive clothes, new toys or luxury rides without your knowledge is a sign that your spouse is telling financial lies.
4 – Not Knowing Where The Money Is Going
If your spouse tells you that you have less than normal income and that money goes to debts or elsewhere, your spouse may be lying financially. Of course, sometimes monthly expenses can be exceeded without realizing it, and sometimes everything may not go as desired. But if he/she says, has no idea where these expenses are going, or can’t give a specific answer, it’s a sign that your partner is telling financial lies.
Why Does Your Spouse Tell You Financial Lies?
There are many reasons why your spouse may be telling financial lies. Therefore, we cannot look at it from a single perspective. Let’s list a few possible reasons for this:
- Your partner may have a secret they don’t want you to know. For example, gambling or lending money to a friend. Therefore, your spouse may be lying to you financially.
- Your partner may like luxury. For this reason, your spouse may not want you to see and know about the high-priced purchases he/she has made.
- Your spouse may not really be able to keep up financially. Sometimes people may have exceeded their spending limits without realizing it. Therefore, your spouse may be telling you the truth.
- Your spouse may have made these expenses for something good. Your spouse may be overspending for good reason. For example, something like a donation to a charity or a big surprise for you.
- Your spouse may have a secret affair. Your spouse may be spending big bucks for his/her secret affair. And because of this, your spouse may be lying to you financially.
If we look at the result, there may actually be a million different reasons for this. That’s why you never actually know until your partner tells you the truth. Therefore, you should actually ask your partner why. But when asking this, you should take the right steps and never be dragged into a situation you don’t want. Next, we’ll explain what to do when your spouse lies to you financially.
What to Do When You Find Out Your Spouse Is Lying Financially
When your husband or wife cheats for money, you should do and know some things. This is not the end of your marriage. But if that’s not a red flag situation! Therefore, you must first find out why your spouse is lying financially. First, let’s take a look at ways to find out.
1 – Listen to your partner
When your husband or wife cheats for money, firstly just ask “Why?” and don’t judge him or her. You need to understand why your partner is doing this, and blaming him/her will prevent you from making things right. Also, you can’t find out the real reason by blaming him/her, it will make him/her hide even more. So ask your spouse why he/she is lying financially and do it sincerely. And just listen to him/her and don’t show it to him/her even if you get angry.
2 – Be Financially Transparent
If you want financial openness from your spouse, you need to be transparent as well. That’s why you should be completely honest about your financial expenses and answer every question. With this attitude, you can both follow a better path and not be exposed to financial lies.
3 – Set a Checkpoint with Your Spouse
If you don’t want to face any more financial lies, set a checkpoint with your partner. Choose any day of the month and each month, give each other a financial statement on that day. This way, you’ll be financially honest with each other. Also, as we said before, not only your financial lying partner, but also you need to be open about it.
4 – Set Common Goals
Set a goal that you and your partner enjoy or are passionate about. This target can be anything. The important thing is that you both are excited about this goal. In this way, you can avoid unnecessary spending and financial lies. At the same time, setting a common goal with your spouse will prevent unnecessary expenses. Therefore, you can resort to this way to get rid of financial lies.
5 – Forgive Your Spouse
If your spouse hasn’t lied financially for a red flag situation such as cheating, focus on forgiving your spouse. Yes, it can be annoying to encounter such a situation. And it might even offend you. But everyone makes mistakes and everyone deserves a second chance. So if your spouse has lied to you financially, choose to forgive him/her. It is not a solution to constantly slam this situation in his/her face and constantly argue about it. That’s why being forgiving is the best choice.
6 – Rescue Account for Emergency Situations
If you are worried about the decisions you make with your spouse and you think that your spouse will not comply with these decisions. Create a bank account for emergencies. In this way, when you encounter any problems, you can secure yourself with this money and get rid of the problems.
7 – Get Professional Help
If your spouse does not comply with the decisions you made together and you really want to get out of this situation, you can get professional help. Professional marriage counseling is the best solution for such situations. When it comes to financial lies, professionals will be the best solution for you.

Moss initially planned to refuse the role of June in the hit adaptation of Margaret Atwood’s dystopian classic because she was hesitant to sign up for another TV show so soon after appearing in Mad Men.
“The problem was that I didn’t want to sign on necessarily to do another TV show so quickly, as it had only been a couple of years since I worked on Mad Men,” Moss told Heat magazine.
Moss went on to explain that she decided to take the role in the end because she couldn’t bear the thought of another actor playing June.
“But I was thinking about whether to do the show one evening,” she continued, “and I remember having an almost nightmarish experience of waking up in the middle of the night imagining not taking it and someone else doing it.
“I pictured that in my mind and then I thought to myself, ‘No, no, no, no, no, someone else is not getting their hands on this.’ So I said, ‘Yes.’ That’s why I did it – pure jealousy and competitiveness.”
Moss added that the role of June is the “most connected” she’s felt to a part out of all of her work.

Sally Carpenter stopped by our Interview Room at The Editing Pen. Tea was poured and we got to talking. Ms. Carpenter has a master’s degree in theater from Indiana State University. While in school, her plays “Star Collector” and “Common Ground” were finalists in the American College Theater Festival One-Act Playwriting Competition. “Common Ground” also earned a college creative writing award and “Star Collector” was produced in New York City. She’s now employed at a community newspaper.
Her initial book in the Sandy Fairfax Teen Idol series, “The Baffled Beatlemaniac Caper,” was a 2012 Eureka! Award finalist for best first mystery novel. Her short story, “Dark Nights at the Deluxe Drive-in,” appears in the anthology “Last Exit to Murder.” “Faster Than a Speeding Bullet” was published in the “Plan B: Vol. 2” e-book anthology, and her short story “The Pie-eyed Spy” appeared in the Nov. 23, 2013, issue of Kings River Life ezine. I had specific questions for Ms. Carpenter and she came prepared.
Who is your favorite playwright?
William Link and Richard Levinson. They’re mostly known for their TV work but they’ve also written several stage plays. One of them, “Prescription: Murder,” launched the “Columbo” TV series. I like these men because they created Columbo, my favorite detective, but their other mystery scripts are just as good. And they write “cozies” without gore, violence, sex or profanity.
Was it easy or difficult to transition from a play script to a fiction manuscript?
When I first started writing a novel it was all dialogue, like a script. I had to go back in and add description and action. In a play, the audience sees the characters, what they look like and what they’re doing. In a book, one has to describe every gesture and visual. I still write my first drafts this way; I just slap down the dialogue and some action and then fill in the setting, clothes and details later.
Considering Aristotle’s Poetics, which of his six story elements are the strongest in this new release? (Plot, Character, Theme, Language, Melody, Spectacle)
I’d say character although the book has strengths in the other elements as well. A major focus of the book is the relationship between my hero, Sandy Fairfax, and his estranged sister, Celeste. She has to forgive Sandy before they can work together in presenting a concert. Celeste is a fun character who has some personal issues to deal with in order to get back on stage again (Sandy went through some of these same issues in the first book of the series, “The Baffled Beatlemaniac Caper”). For a mystery, plot needs to be a strong factor. I try to set up a number of red herrings and clues and weave those in around the character development.
Spectacle is strong in my books. I like to place the story in an interesting, unique setting that may be unfamiliar to the reader. My first book was set at a Beatles fan convention. The second, “The Sinister Sitcom Caper,” takes place at a movie studio. In this book the characters are on a cruise ship sailing to the Bahamas.
Both you and I have black belts in Tae Kwon Do. Do your characters show us any techniques?
I don’t have any martial arts in this book, although my hero, Sandy Fairfax, uses his physical prowess to escape a death trap. I plan to make martial arts the focus of a future book when Sandy learns tae kwon do for self defense.
How does your central character’s language differ from the other characters? Is the sentence structure different? The musicality in his phrases? Accent? Speech rhythms?
I write in first person so the character’s voice is apparent all on every page. Sandy Fairfax, my hero, reflects on his past actions and makes judgments about the people he meets. He has a dry, self-deprecating sense of humor. At times he’s quite vain. He’s an actor and knows how to put on a good front he often says one thing but he’s thinking something else. I haven’t analyzed how Sandy talks but I hear his voice in my head and it flows easily on to the page. As for language, one of secondary characters has a Southern accent that I try to express with word choice. Writing out the phonetic sounds of an accent can be hard to read.
As we finished our tea, Sally let me know that the next book in the Sandy Fairfax series is “The Bloody Black Tie Benefit Caper.” In this story, Sandy’s father is losing his orchestra due to financial loss, but where did the money go? Sandy also has to clear his father’s name as a murder suspect as well as appear on a TV game show, cozy up with his new girlfriend, and iron out family issues. Ms. Carpenter also wants to launch a new cozy series set in the 1960s that will be pretty hip and fab gear.
I boxed up the extra cookies and handed them to her as we made our way to the door. It was a pleasure to have Sally visit. Check out her book and webpages and feel free to post any comments below for the author or your Editor.

The first provides a detailed protocol for how to measure the absolute abundance (#proteins per cell) of any Halo-Tagged protein in a couple of afternoons using just Flow Cytometry based on our 2019 paper and can be found here: https://bio-protocol.org/e3527
The second protocol provides detailed step-by-step guidance for to carry out robust co-IP experiments, for example of the same protein with two different epitope tags and can be found here: https://bio-protocol.org/e3526
The lab is officially a lab
We are officially a lab. Michele Gabriele has joined as the lab's first post-doc and Viraat Goel and Jin (Harvey) Yang have joined as the first two graduate students from MIT's Biological Engineering program. Science is happening!


Our team is ready to assist you!
This laser power meter is a must for a wide array of applications, from bio-stimulation to telecommunications. These handheld units have an extremely wide flexibility and are very user-friendly.
Three detector heads are available for laser power measurement – UV (200 to 1100nm), Visible (350 to 1100nm), and Near-IR (800 to 1800nm). In addition to the photodiode heads for individual wavelengths, we offer heads for measuring the output of broadband light sources. The radiometer detector head has spectrally flat response from 400 to 1000nm and therefore can give the true total power of any broadband light source in that spectral region. The photometer head has a spectral response similar to that of the human eye and can therefore make measurements in eye response units of Lux. The photometer head is designed with a small detector where the source overfills the detector. It measures the light intensity per unit area in units of Lux or Foot Candles.
The laser power meter recognizes the pre-calibrated detector head when it is attached. Detector heads can be oriented over a 180° angle and come with an attachable 0.5" dia. x 2.25" L post, 0.875" OD / 0.5" ID post holder, and 3" x 4" sliding base for breadboard mounting. Note: Socket Head Cap Screws not included. Heads also include removable calibration filter.
Functions of the power meter are controlled via menu options on the LCD display that can be controlled by the “Menu” button or three “soft” buttons below the LCD. User navigates through desired menus to select various pre-defined operations. The High Performance version (#58-359) offers the ability to store up to 54,000 data points on-board in 10 files, a high-resolution screen with a selectable digital or analog display, and several additional features.
Meter housing is molded high-impact plastic with kickstand and EMI conductive shielding to allow use in proximity to pulsed lasers. On/off switch on left side. Supertwist LCD display has switchable electroluminescent backlight (active from power charger only), contrast adjustment, and large 12mm digits. User manual and battery charger included. Unit also comes with NIST traceable certificate of calibration in accordance with ISO 10012-1.
Optional RS232 adapter for standard meter #55-642 allows a 9600-baud connection between the laser power meter and the user’s computer via a 1.5m long cable. Interface software is included and is LabVIEW® compatible.
Note: Complete system requires a detector head and laser power meter #55-642 or #58-359.

Watching Tiger play yesterday was a revelation. The perfect circle of the swing creates a shield that blocks out the impositions of the real world and connects the axis to a spiritual plane.
I had called Tiger the equivalent of a trained circus bear, poked and prodded into performing well in what is basically an unnatural act. It is unnatural to place balls at great distances with accuracy -as much as it is for a bear to walk on a giant ball on its hind legs while wearing a top hat. I had questioned the place that his golf came from, but this was a mistake.
How Tiger became so excellent will always have some alchemic mystery lodged in the perpetual nature/nurture debate. Spiritual fulfillment was on display, and through that round, there was even some measure of golf absolution.
Golf played well comes from the heart.
as an addendum,
Tiger’s play on Sunday had the scrambling desperation of a drowning man grabbing for a life preserver. There was both fear and desire, and greed. To quote a great warrior-mystic, fear leads to anger, anger leads to hate, and hate leads to suffering.

Exploring Italy by Rail, starting your journey from Rome
Embarking on a rail journey through Italy starting from Rome unveils a captivating adventure filled with cultural richness, historic landmarks, and breathtaking landscapes. Italy’s extensive and efficient railway network offers a seamless way to traverse the country, providing travelers with the opportunity to witness the diverse beauty that characterizes each region.
From the eternal charm of Rome, with its ancient ruins and vibrant street life, the journey unfolds to encompass iconic cities like Florence, Venice, and Milan, each with its distinct allure. This exploration promises not only a convenient and scenic mode of travel but also an immersion into the heart of Italy’s heritage, where the rhythm of the railways guides you through a tapestry of experiences.
Rome, the capital of Italy, is well-connected by a comprehensive railway network. Some of the most popular train routes from Rome include:
Train Routes from Rome
Rome to Florence (Firenze)
This route connects two of Italy’s most iconic cities, known for their rich history, art, and architecture.
Florence, often referred to as Firenze in Italian, is a city that encapsulates the essence of the Renaissance. Situated in the heart of Tuscany, Florence is renowned for its wealth of art, history, and architecture. The Uffizi Gallery, one of the most visited art museums globally, houses an impressive collection of Renaissance masterpieces, including works by Michelangelo, Leonardo da Vinci, and Botticelli. Visitors can explore the city’s historical core, marked by iconic landmarks such as the Florence Cathedral (Duomo), Giotto’s Campanile, and the Baptistery.
Beyond its cultural treasures, Florence offers a relaxed yet immersive experience for tourists. The Ponte Vecchio, a medieval bridge spanning the Arno River, provides a picturesque setting for strolling and shopping. The city’s charming streets are lined with local markets, artisan shops, and traditional eateries, allowing travelers to savor authentic Tuscan cuisine.
For those seeking panoramic views, climbing the steps to Piazzale Michelangelo offers a breathtaking vista of Florence and its surrounding hills. With its accessible size and well-preserved historical sites, Florence invites visitors to appreciate its cultural heritage without feeling overwhelmed.
In addition to its artistic and culinary allure, Florence serves as a strategic base for exploring the broader Tuscan region. Day trips to nearby towns such as Siena, Pisa, and San Gimignano are easily accomplished, adding to the overall appeal of a visit to this timeless Italian city. Florence stands as a destination where the rich tapestry of history and art seamlessly intertwines with a laid-back atmosphere, creating an inviting environment for travelers eager to delve into the heart of Tuscany.
Train Trip from Rome to Florence
There are frequent train services running between Rome and Florence. On average, there are about 111 trains per day travelling between the two cities. Trains leave approximately every 5 minutes.
The Rome to Florence train travel takes about 1 hour and 16 minutes, no matter when you leave.
Rome to Venice (Venezia)
The train journey from Rome to Venice offers a scenic route through the Italian countryside and connects two of the most visited cities in Italy.
Venice, often referred to as the “City of Canals,” is a unique destination that captures the imagination of travelers worldwide. Situated in northeastern Italy, this historic city is renowned for its intricate network of canals, charming narrow streets, and centuries-old architecture. A visit to Venice would be incomplete without a stroll through the iconic St. Mark’s Square, where the Basilica di San Marco and the Campanile stand as architectural landmarks. Travelers can also explore the Doge’s Palace, a symbol of the city’s rich history and the former residence of the Venetian rulers.
Navigating Venice involves a reliance on its extensive network of waterways, making a gondola ride or a vaporetto journey along the Grand Canal essential experiences. The city is dotted with picturesque bridges, and the Rialto Bridge, spanning the Grand Canal, is a hub of activity with its vibrant market. While Venice is celebrated for its cultural heritage, it is also a place to savor authentic Italian cuisine. Local trattorias and bacari offer a taste of Venetian specialties, and wandering off the beaten path often leads to hidden gems where one can enjoy a quiet moment away from the crowds.
See our article on the most compelling things to see and do in Venice.
Beyond the well-known landmarks, Venice invites exploration of its diverse neighborhoods, each with its own character and charm. The districts of Dorsoduro, Cannaregio, and Castello offer a more intimate perspective, allowing visitors to appreciate daily life in this distinctive city. While Venice may face challenges related to tourism, it remains a captivating destination where the allure of history, culture, and culinary delights converge amidst the tranquil waters of its canals.
Train Trip from Rome to Venice
There are frequent train services running between Rome and Venice. On average, there are about 52 trains per day travelling between the two cities. They leave approximately every 15 minutes.
The Rome to Venice train travel takes about 3 hours and 24 minutes
Remember that there are multiple operators serving these train routes. Fast direct trains from Rome to Venice do not all leave from the same station in Rome. Check your booking carefully. Trenitalia’s Frecciargento and Frecciarossa services usually start from Roma Termini and then stop 10 minutes later to pick up passengers at Tiburtina. Trains start from Roma Fiumicino, giving a direct link from the airport to Venice. The Italo services all serve Tiburtina, with trains each day also picking up travellers at Roma Termini.
Fast trains from Rome all stop at Venice Mestre, with most services then continuing over the bridge to Venezia Santa Lucia. The latter is much more convenient for the heart of the Old Town – however some like to book a hotel near the Venezia Mestre rail station while visiting Venice. The fast services from Rome to Venice make anything from one to four stops on their journey between the two cities.
Rome to Milan (Milano)
Milan is a major financial and fashion hub, and the train ride from Rome to Milan is a popular route for business and leisure travelers.

Nice little launch ramp on Eustis Lake. Room for 4 boats to launch but it is normally pretty shallow. We’ve launched here before and knew we could make it.
They’ve made some nice improvements since we were last here.
Carl, Jim and I went to the Mason Jar for breakfast then came and launched the boat. Once we were on our way, Carl took the truck and trailer back to his house. He’ll bring it back and pick us up when we are ready to load up and head home.
Although we had a great time on the San Juan 21…this is traveling in style compared to that. We get to sit on the rear deck and have coffee in the morning…and wine at night and no bugs to bother us.
We took a little tour around Lake Eustis then headed to “Gator Hole”. We’ve anchored there before and wanted to check the depth in case all of us decided to anchor when we got back to Eustis. The others are putting in on Lake Griffin and we are going to meet them there.
After checking The Gator Hole we headed for Haines Creek. It connects Lake Eustis and Lake Griffin. There is a small lock you have to pass through part way up the creek.
Haines Creek was full of turtles but did not see any gators. It’s not unusual to find them sunning together…but not today.
We only had a half hour wait so dropped the hook. We noticed this tree with nesting birds.
I believe they are Cormorants…and it looks like there might be young ones.
The motor has not been running right…Jim is doing some adjusting.
This is our first view of Lake Griffin….a nice sailboat.
I had called Bud and Michelle on Avitoon and they were getting ready to launch so we headed down the lake.
Once they were headed N we just shutdown and waited.
Here they come….
Doug and Elaine aboard their 2003 Parker… “Mokee Dugway”
Gaetan aboard his ‘69 Hobo
Bud and Michelle aboard their Avitoon
Jeff and Sue aboard their ‘70 Land & Sea.
After a nice lumpy cruise up to the north end of Lake Griffin we found a place to anchor for the night. Hobo, Big Duck and Mokee rafted up. Mokee is setting his anchor and the other two are getting ready to raft up.
We’d already dropped our anchor and Jim had some work to do on the motor so we stayed where we were….
After supper we sat on the rear deck with our glass of wine. It was a beautiful night. Temp was about 74* and we didn’t need jackets.
We went to bed early but about 9:30 I woke up and headed to the rear deck with a book. It was too nice a night to waste sleeping…I never sleep good the first night on the water….so afraid I’ll miss a cruising gator or a manatee.
Nice bright moon and not a whiff of breeze.

Aaron Guzikowski is probably used to critics wondering “what kind of sick, twisted mind” (LAT) could dream up his dark, psychological thrillers, like Prisoners and Sundance’s new drama series The Red Road.
“You’re an affable guy” one TV critic noted with surprise this morning Guzikowski came to Winter TV Press Tour 2014 to talk about the Sundance project debuting February 27. The critic wondered how such an affable guy could “relish your darker side” and asked him to speak about this “passion.”

“For darkness? I came from a pretty happy upbringing, but my mother was obsessed with horror novels and my father with science fiction,” he responded, affably. “Horror and darkness always felt comfortable to me — an escape from the banalities of things that drag me down. There’s something kind of beautiful about it.” Read More »

BREAKING: Universal has reemerged as the financier of Contraband, the English language remake of the 2008 Icelandic film Reykjavic-Rotterdam. Mark Wahlberg is set to star, Kate Beckinsale is negotiating, and Baltasar Kormakur is set to direct. Kormakur starred in, produced and co-wrote the original. Working Title partners Tim Bevan and Eric Fellner are producing with Wahlberg (who’s next out in The Fighter), Stephen Levinson and Kormakur. Verve-repped Aaron Guzikowski is writing the script.
Oskar Jonasson directed the original, in which Kormakur played a former smuggler trying to go straight as a night guard. When his wife’s brother (who got him the job) botches a smuggling run, his life threatened and the protagonist is dragged in for one more job. WME, which reps the stars and Kormakur, set up the remake at Working Title. Bevan and Fellner’s deal is at Universal, and the studio originally intended to finance the film, then passed when the budget came in at $40 million. Relativity Media stepped in, but encouraged the filmmakers to try bringing down the cost. The filmmakers brought the budget down to around $30 million. A $30 million drama with Wahlberg and Beckinsale is a package any studio would jump at. When Relativity blinked, Universal swooped back in. Read More »

It’s the last day of the decade and what a better way to end the year than talking about one of my favorite albums from one of my all time favorite bands.
I can’t believe it has taken me this long to select a Posies album to discuss. Heck, one of my very first articles on this blog was about my love for this band so you would think that this would be an easy thing but no. You see, to me, this band has had so many incredible albums, just picking one seemed an affront to the ones that were not picked. Here we are though, and I think my choice is a pretty good representation of who the Posies were, are and will be in the future. Now, this isn’t claiming this is their best album, or the finest work either Jon Auer or Ken Stringfellow has ever done, no, this is just an album that stands out to me. So without further delay, this is Success.
Why This Album?
I distinctly remember picking this album up at our local record store the week it was released. I had been a fan of the band for sometime by then and I had been special ordering each of their albums as soon as I had the money to buy them. I had become such a regular in the place that one of the clerks, lets call her Jenny, placed the order for this album for me without me even asking. I remember going to the store that day after my shift and Jenny being excited to see me, stating that ‘she had something for me’. She quickly ushered me to the service desk and placed a green album in my hands, the words The Posies Success written on the cover. I was shocked, I knew an album was coming out but, living in a small town with little access to the web, I really didn’t know when. Paying for the album, I thanked Jenny for her kindness and left the store elated. (On hindsight I think I missed some signs with Jenny but, then again, young men need to be hit on the head when someone like them. Girls, take note, men are idiots when it comes to picking up signs of affection, no matter how obvious it is.)
That evening I popped the disc into my CD player and laid back on my cot. I didn’t have a bed at the time, still living at my parents house, and chose to use an old canvas army cot as my bed, to conserve space and money. Propping my head on the pillow I let the songs of Jon Auer and Ken Stringfellow lead me into a happy place.
From the beginning I could tell this was something special. Something unique. That evening, I composed a letter to the band thanking them for their terrific album ( I had written to them twice before with successful responses). With that completed I settled in and listened to the album again. That is when it hit me, Every track seemed to be specially selected for the album in a way that felt as if they were saying goodbye by leaving something perfect behind as a farewell. Throughout the album I began to pick up hints in the songs that seemed to confirm this thought. Songs like Fall Apart with Me, Who to Blame, Start A Life, Friendship of the Future and Farewell Typewriter, all seemed to have a common theme, finality and change. Dismissing the idea, I just enjoyed the album, hoping I was wrong.
To my dismay, my final letter came back as un-deliverable. It seemed the Posies had either moved or, they simply had ended. Determined to figure out what had happened, the next time I went to practice with my band (I sang in a band at the time, hey, we all had rock n roll dreams at that age!) I took a moment to look The Posies up on my Drummers home computer. Immediately I noticed that Ken had a solo album I had missed entitled This Sounds Like Goodbye. Then in dawned on me. ‘Success’. It was a simple but obvious bookend to their first album ‘Failure’ and I had overlooked that clear sign. It seemed that my fears had been confirmed. My favorite band had broken up and, for a time, there would be no more music from the duo.
The album itself is a work of art. Much like Abbey Road, it almost feels as if the band knew that this would be their ‘final‘ project together so they wanted to go out on the highest note they could, boy were they successful. Although it seems to be one of the most overlooked albums in their discography, In many ways you can say that this is a perfect album, with every track balanced and every song just right.
Covering topics of finding one’s self, declarations of love, saying farewell, starting a new beginning and more, this album has a theme song for just about everyone. It is Jon and Ken at their most vulnerable and it shows in every song giving each lyric and each note even that much more meaning.
Every Bitter Drop: At it’s base it is a song about alcoholism and the damage that is done in and around those who are affected. It is about how, only the person who is the alcoholic can defeat it, no matter how many scapegoats they conjure up. This one has a personal meaning to me having grown up around an alcoholic as a kid. The lyrics, ‘If you had the chance, would you realize that every bitter drop is clouding up your eyes’ is some powerful stuff for sure.
Fall Apart With Me: I always felt that this was someone begging a lover to meet in the middle and let their collapse join them again as random parts on the floor. Instead of falling apart, they could fall apart together making them closer than ever. I love the concept of unity through failure making that failure a Success in the end.
Start A Life: This one struck me hard as it would only be a short time after this albums release that I ventured out on my own. The lyrics of this one lined up so closely to my personal experiences that is was truly frightening. Trying to start a life is indeed harder than you think.
Ok, Where do I get it?
Needless to say, the Posies have since returned in full force, producing not one but Three additional albums, an EP, and a number of fantastic solo albums and side bands. It seems that, even with Success, they had more to say and boy they are really something spectacular still. I am happy to have seen them live four times already in recent years and it was well worth the wait. You can grab a copy of this one here for around $17 and Luckily you can listen to it on Spotify as well. Either way, grab a copy, it’s really great stuff.
You should also check out the band at Theposies.net. Go see them live if you get a chance. You won’t regret it.

One thought on “Stand Out Albums: The Posies ‘Success’ (1998)”

STEVEN GERRARD today revealed the threat of allowing the unthinkable to happen will provide the impetus for Liverpool to stage a grandstand finish to the season.
The Reds condemned Burnley to relegation yesterday with a thumping 4-0 win, their first victory away from Anfield in the Premier League since December 29.
It has kept Liverpool’s faint hopes of qualifying for the Champions League alive and, just as importantly, enabled them to keep a five-point buffer over neighbours Everton.
If Liverpool miss out on a top four spot, their away form will be to blame and Gerrard – who scored twice at Turf Moor – candidly admitted it simply “hasn’t been good enough”.
But Gerrard knows it pays to never say never and he is ready to lead a charge that he hopes will see the Reds win their last two games and reach the Europa League final.
“We won’t give up but it would be stupid of me to say this or that is going to happen – it’s important to be realistic,” said Gerrard, who was outstanding yesterday.
“We are underdogs for fourth position but our fans know that we have also got Everton breathing down our necks and we certainly don’t want them finishing above us.
“We haven’t been good enough away. When you can’t score and you lose your top striker, it can damage belief and affect your confidence but this was much better.
“We have got a couple of games left now (against Chelsea and Hull) and the idea is to take maximum points to see if we can get into fourth through the back door.
“If we take maximum points, who knows? The teams above us might slip up. All we have done (by beating Burnley) is keep the pressure on those above us.”
Gerrard’s second goal – a howitzer from 25 yards – was the highlight of an encouraging team performance that included another inspired display from Maxi Rodriguez.
The pint-sized Argentinean was an instrumental figure throughout and grabbed his first goal for the club, when sweeping a terrific ball from Alberto Aquilani past Brian Jensen.
He will be sorely missed when Atletico Madrid come to Anfield for the second leg of their Europa League semi-final on Thursday but Gerrard is not thinking negatively.
With the prospect of leading Liverpool out in Hamburg on May 12 proving a huge incentive, he is determined to carry on against Atletico what he started at Turf Moor.
“Maxi has been terrific for the last five or six weeks,” said Gerrard. “It would have been great to have him on Thursday night. He’s a quality player who can unlock defences.
“But we have done it before and we hope to do it again.
“We are going to pile everything into the game and Thursday can’t come quickly enough.
“It was important that we scored a few goals and hopefully everyone is really positive.”
