MHSc Program Curriculum
The curriculum for the MHSc Health Administration program stems from its mission to prepare individuals for leadership in complex and dynamic health care environments. All courses have clearly articulated learning objectives, which are based on the competencies viewed as necessary to leading in these environments. The 26 competencies of the National Center for Healthcare Leadership (NCHL) Health Leadership Competencies Model provide the framework for these objectives and for curriculum development. The NCHL Health Leadership Competency Model™ delineates outstanding leadership at three stages – entry, mid-level, and advanced.
The Program's curriculum is designed so that all graduating students will have reached the mid-level stage for each of the full group of 26 competencies.

Handheld computer maker Palm Inc. Thursday said it plans to acquire the intellectual property and technology assets of multimedia operating system developer Be Inc., in a deal meant to boost the new stand-alone software unit that Palm announced last month.
Santa Clara, Calif.-based Palm also disclosed today that Alan Kessler is resigning from his job as general manager of the software-oriented Platform Solutions Group, effective tomorrow. Eric Benhamou, the chairman of Palm's board of directors, was named acting CEO of the software operations until a permanent replacement for Kessler is found.
The purchase of Be's assets is a stock-swap deal valued at about US$11 million, according to Palm. In addition to buying the Menlo Park, Calif.-based company's assets, Palm also is offering jobs to Be's engineering team. Palm CEO Carl Yankowski said in a statement that the deal is aimed at adding multimedia and Internet capabilities to the Palm OS operating system.
Be CEO Jean-Louis Gassee will work with Palm on a temporary basis to assist in both the integration of Be's technology and the planned separation of Palm's hardware and software businesses. Meanwhile, Be said in a separate announcement that it plans to sell off the Palm stock and end its operations after the deal is completed in the fourth quarter.
The sell-off agreement comes just two weeks after Be cut its workforce by 33 percent, laying off 28 employees in a move that included the elimination of its sales and marketing departments. That in turn followed a $3.9 million second-quarter loss on sales of just $715,000 and the April hiring of an investment banking firm to help Be explore a possible sale and other financial alternatives.
Palm announced in late July that it was separating the Platform Solutions Group from its hardware business in order to "foster the independence" of both units.
In disclosing his plans to leave the software operation, Kessler today said he had decided "to move on to a new challenge."

Independence Day - July 4th Musical Salute!
The independent spirit fuels the music and operations of Ani DiFranco's Righteous Babe Records. It's only natural that Allison Crowe, since embarking on her own course as an international touring and recording artist, looks to Ani as a model. Allison's Rubenesque Records Ltd. has taken the road less traveled since 2001. From "Live at Wood Hall", (released by RRL in 2005), here's Allison in concert with a cover of Ani's song, "Independence Day": https://allisoncrowe.bandcamp.com/track/independence-day
This track joins a cadre of tunes for a July 4th feature of the "Cover Lay Down" blog. Boyhowdy presents music of Allison + Ani alongside Eva Cassidy, Lucy Wainwright Roche, Richard Shindell and a dozen more artists performing songs of Paul Simon, Creedence Clearwater Revival, Bobby Darin and more.
"Cover Lay Down" founder Boyhowdy, aka Joshua Farber, pens the latest installment to an eloquent "America The Beautiful: More Coverfolk For A Thoughtful Fourth" posting this Independence Day for our American friends and neighbours. It's an episode worth revisiting, notes Farber, "as music which speaks of and for a people, American folk music holds a particular place in the conversation which is America...making it real and vivid, whether it is through the lens of policy critique or protest cry, the immigrant experience or the internal monologue of a singer-songwriter struggling to be free."
Farber wraps the intro to this musical salute: "Happy Birthday, America. Long may your contradictions endear us to you. May you never lose hope. And may we never stop singing."
Labels: Allison Crowe, Ani DiFranco, Bobby Darin, boyhowdy, CCR, Cover Lay Down, Eva Cassidy, Independence Day, Joshua Farber, July 4, Lucy Wainwright Roche, Paul Simon, Richard Shindell, Righteous Babe, Rubenesque, USA

"Downtown Church"
Patty Griffin
In 2008 and 2009, singer-songwriters Patty Griffin, Emmylou Harris, Shawn Colvin and Buddy Miller toured together with a show called "Three Girls and Their Buddy."
Miller produced and performed on Griffin's new album, "Downtown Church," and Harris and Colvin sing on it. But the album is anything but business as usual, as Griffin draws on gospel music to an extent she never has before.
"I still feel like black gospel music, what's come out of the United States from slavery, is really the foundation for almost everything that I love," she says. "I'm talkin' Beatles and everything. That, to me, is just basic. The foundation."
She recorded the album at Nashville's Downtown Presbyterian Church, and mixes traditional songs like "Wade In the Water" and "Move Up" with her own compositions, and material from sources ranging from Hank Williams ("House of Gold") to Leiber and Stoller ("I Smell a Rat"). In addition to Harris and Colvin, guest vocalists include Raul Malo (on the traditional "Virgen de Guadalupe"), Jim Lauderdale, Julie Miller and gospel singers Regina and Ann McCrary.
Griffin approaches her pop-folk-gospel fusion from many angles. "Move Up" is fast and celebratory, while "Never Grow Old" is slow and thoughtful. "Death's Got a Warrant" is a stark song of warning, but "All Creatures of Our God and King" is a gentle hymn.
All the music is tastefully arranged, Griffin always sings with great emotion, and the guest vocalists add vital textures. This album will be a revelation for both Griffin's fans, and gospel enthusiasts who give it a chance.

Game 133: Phillies 8 - Mets 7 (13)
Last night the game Mets lost a game in a manner that we've seen too many times this year. While the loss certainly stung, I've gotten beyond any personal need to hang responsibility for it on any particular player or players. One thing I will say, though, is that I find it amazing how much venom is being directed towards the bullpen.
The Mets handed Pedro Martinez a 7-run lead, but he only lasted 5 innings and gave back 5 of those runs. It's the type of performance that has become all too familiar for Pedro against good offensive teams. As much as I love and appreciate him for what he has done here, this Pedro Martinez is frankly not worth re-signing after the season for the type of money he will command. Moreover, as someone who has been a fan long enough to remember Willie Mays hanging around a couple of seasons too long I don't want my last memories of Pedro to be of this pitcher who gives up homeruns by the boatload.
This has always been a season that had the potential for the type of ugliness we endured last night. I don't have to like it, but I have accepted it. Santana needs to step up tonight, and if he does I'll be grateful for the split rather than hung up on what might have been. Those might have beens for the 2008 Mets will drive you crazy if you let them. Life is too short.
The Mets have to find a way to win tonight, despite their bullpen. Some late-game runs wouldn't be a bad thing, either.
Finally, while I don't feel that the nonsense coming from some Philly players, fans and the ridiculously bad writers who ply their trade down there merits much response, I will say this. I understand that Reyes rubs many opposing players the wrong way and I don't really care. It's part of the package you accept with him. I get it that Philly is an angry town that needs to hate players on the other team. There's some of that in New York, too.
If Philly needs to somehow cast themselves as the unassuming heroes in this drama, who could blame them? I've been assured by people who witnessed Brett Meyers beating and choking his wife outside of Fenway Park a couple of years ago that Meyers did very little taunting and celebrating after his convincing victory over her. Now that's professionalism that we can all admire.

MVNCI Royal Court 2014 – Portrait Session
Mimicking the wonderful Dan Winters. I love the way he edits and brings out such character in every single portrait.
Camille and Christophe – Fitness Modeling Session
I've always admired people who can devote their time and energy to keeping your body fit. As a photographer, it's hard to carve out time to go the gym and work out. The motivation is just not there… until of course you do a fitness shoot! I had the pleasure of shooting this sweet couple a few weeks ago. As soon as I finished the shoot, I went to the gym for about 4hrs! I've been running at least 6 miles a week now and eating healthy. Long story short – headshots, fashion and portraits are awesome but photographers should really do more fitness photoshoots… it's good for their health.
Strobist info: black muslin background, 2 gridded strip boxes at AB800s and one flash behind the camera for a bit of fill.
MVNCI – Royal Court 2013 – Portrait Session
For the past 4 years, I've had the honor of photographing the Miss Vietnam Northern California Intercollegiate Court and every year I've picked a photographer I admire to inspire me when planning for the shoot. Last year, it was a tone down version of Terry Richardson's ring flash white background portraits. http://mosessison.com/
Much props to phlearn.com for providing an awesome tutorial on what type of lighting to use.
Corporate Headshots – UberConference – SF Startup
I had the pleasure of taking corporate headshots for the San Francisco based start up company UberConference. What is UberConference you ask.
"UberConference brings a whole new visual dimension to audio conference calls. From any computer, anyone in the call can see the names, photos, and other information of the others in the call. The display shows the current speaker, and the organizer has a number of helpful tools to keep the conference running smoothly." – Copied and pasted from their website.
I use the product quite frequently when I need to have a meeting with remote clients. It's great and the best part is that it's free! The team at UC are super nice and extremely cooperative. I was actually a bit intimidated because with their Creative Director, Alex Cornell, leading the design team, UberConference has produced some ridiculously awesome promotional videos. Here are few shots from the photoshoot.
Johnny La – Portrait Session – Actor Headshots
I LOVE doing headshots for aspiring actors and actresses. Why you ask? Well let me count the ways:
1. They can take direction. Look up, look down, look straight into the camera, slight smile, no smile, are just some of the directions I give when shooting a headshot. Folks who have studied acting responds to these admirably.
2. On top of taking straight forward directions well, they can also understand "meta" directions. Directions such as look flirtatious, look villainous, look innocent and so on are never followed with, "What do you mean?" They know what I meant and they execute it flawlessly.
3. They show up on time… or even early. Actors and actresses tend to be very punctual or even early for the shoot. They don't arrive 30min late then start acting like a diva demanding make-up and hair done ASAP! They are super humble because they understand how hard it is to work with someone who is a pain in the arse.
4. They are in The Zone with me! This is important because they know that it takes two to make a great headshot, the photographer and the subject. They live in the moment and match each other's energy right from the get go. The Zone can be lonely sometimes so it's always nice to have someone there with you from time to time.
With that said, I truly enjoyed my photoshoot with Mr. Johnny La several months ago. He's a great guy who exhibited the 4 things I listed above. Here's a preview of our shoot. Check out his website at www.johnnyla.com.
Edgy Bad Guy.
Friendly Guy Next Door.
High Powered Finance Professional.
The lighting was inspired by one of my favorite headshot photographer, Peter Hurley. http://peterhurley.com/
Kim and Mary – Portrait Session – Outdoor Sun
For the longest time, I've always thought of Sacramento as boring, stuffy and old smelling. I envisioned that people who live there talk about the Senate, House and the "State of State." Sacramento'nians to me are all politics and no fun. But after meeting and hanging out with the very cute, super fun and semi crazy Mary and Kim, Sacramento doesn't seem all the bad anymore.
It was fall of last year when we decided to do a "Sun Kiss" photoshoot inspired by the photography of John Agcaoili. Both of the ladies came over the house right before sun set and I started debriefing them about the shoot. We chose to shoot during "Golden Hour" because I just love the diffuse warm light the sun provides during that time. I've been scouting for locations to shoot this concept for weeks now and we actually ended up near my house in a deserted horse ranch. It was a relatively fast and very efficient shoot because I've worked with both Mary and Kim before so I barely had to direct them and we transitioned from one shot to the next seamlessly.
The shoot went so fast that when we got home, we actually had enough energy to do a completely different shoot. I was going for the whole Terry Richardson (NSFW) look where the background is about 2 stops hotter and the model is about 1 stop over exposed. Using only 1 ring flash as my light source, I put both Mary and Kim in this small white box that's meant to be a "computer" area in one of the rooms. It worked like a charm. The light bounce around everywhere giving me a nice even background and much of details were kept intact.

Victoria Barajas – Portrait Session – Model Development
The stereotypical "model" stands at about 5'9″ at around 145-150lbs. A study done in 2002 showed that among top editorial fashion agencies in Los Angeles and New York, 81% of their "editorial fashion" models were 5'9" and above; 15% were between 5'8" and 5'9", and only 4% were below 5'8" tall. With these statistics in mind, some women are often discouraged to pursue modeling as a profession due to their not meeting that height 'requirement'.
Then you have the rare case of a girl so damn driven to pursue a modeling career that even if you threw a book of statistics at her, it would never deter her ambition to pursue this career track, and Victoria Barajas is an excellent example of such a lady. Proudly standing less than five feet tall, I met her on set at the Candy Factory in Fremont during a photography meet up. Victoria's attitude and professionalism were top notch, and I was genuinely excited to work with her. Vincent Gotti, as always, had assembled a great group of sytlist; Roy from Hair by Roy got Victoria's hair "did", Prince Kaleo dressed and styled her and Carla Tersini did an amazing job with her make up.
Victoria is a very talented model and I would not be surprise to see her in print soon.

Eva Luna – Portrait Session – Model Development
Photographing a model who has extensive dance background is very different that photographing a model who grew up modeling. I had recently had the opportunity of photographing Eva Luna in my favorite studio The Candy Factory in Fremont, CA. Vince Gotti, the Director of Photography at GEV Magazine set the shoot up and contacted the amazing hair stylist Roy from Hairby Roy along with the always fabulous Prince Kaleo from The Armoire Closet to create a fantastic photography set.
Eva was so interesting to work with. Unlike most models who moves from pose to pose, Eva fluidly moved throughout the entire shoot. It was up to the photographer to guide the movement and capture an instance where the movement is at it's most beautiful state. Now I would never give this posing advice when I am doing corporate headshots or portrait photography here in San Jose / San Francisco area but for some reason, she was able to make it work. Maybe it was because she was a dancer maybe she was just really good at what she does; no matter what the reason on how she made "fluid posing" work, I am looking forward to working with her again in the future.

HKLT Royal Court 2012 – Editorial Preview
There have been talks on releasing an editorial spread for the 2012 HKLT Court for close to a year now. Well it's almost near completion and I wanted to give a quick preview. The girls were asked several questions and one the intrigued me most is about the topic of "Beauty". Being a photographer, I certainly have an opinion about beauty but this post is not about me, it's about the the girls. So read on because what they have to say is very interesting.
What are your impressions when you hear somebody talk about beauty, or mention that something or somebody is beautiful? What does "being beautiful" mean to you?
Janet Pham – Beauty means so many different things to each person. When I hear someone use the term "beauty," I find it so subjective. As cliche as it is, I believe that beauty really is in the eye of the beholder. Beauty could be a reference to one's outward appearance, but this represents a preference and not a universal truth. There is no single, objective standard for physical beauty (even though there are social constructs of beauty in different societies, but particularly in ours with the media and hollywood). To me, being beautiful means to first and foremost love and accept yourself. To be completely comfortable with who you are-your looks, your style, your character, your convictions. Without confidence, physical beauty is easily forgotten. The characteristics that define my personality enables my confidence, and to me, this is what being beautiful means. These things highlight and bring out physical beauty.
Kim Huynh – I love beauty. I don't mean to become abstract, but there's truth in beauty. The rare moments when you come across something so beautiful and perfect, so powerfully transcending it makes you gasp, like you've witnessed something that can never be replicated quite the same way. It's why I believe in the arts, why I belly dance and why I'm an English major. These are moments worth living for, because they're moments I feel alive. When beauty is applied to a person, it's much harder to define. I try to quantify it, break it down into analytically – "Yes, I agree she is beautiful because of the placement of her eyes, or the prominence of her cheekbones." But have you ever noticed that people become worse-looking or better-looking depending on how you like them? In the battle between beauty and personality, you can't discount the latter.
Theresa Ngo – The world and the media places great emphasis on "beauty" and the belief that beauty is everything can often be ingrained into our minds. This is also the root of the problem for women's insecurities and internal conflict to always remain "beautiful" in the public's eye. What defines beauty is truly subjective and it is up to the eye of the beholder. There is a Vietnamese proverb, one of my favorites, that states "Cai net danh chet cai dep". The rough translation means that personality and charm overcomes outward beauty. Beauty should encompass more than just a woman's outward features and genetic gifts-her talents and tribulations; her code of conduct, her values and beliefs, and her wisdom and intelligence should all be considered.
Kimmy Huynh – When I hear people talk about beauty, the first thing that comes to mind would be how beautiful the person looks. Of course outer beauty is nothing if the inner beauty is not there to support what's on the outside. What is considered beautiful varies from individuals to individuals. From the cultures that I have experience, beauty have many forms, but the basis seems to be standard overall, and that is the ability to carry oneself gracefully, be proud of oneself, and have aspirational dreams for the future.

Ulorin Vex – Portrait Session – Model Development
Did you know that your whole body needs to be fully lubricated in order to wear latex? No? Well neither did I until my last photoshoot with British Alternative Super Model Ulorin Vex!
I've never really shot an alternative / punk rock model in the past so I wasn't sure what to expect. I checked out her website prior to the shoot and it was filled with some of the most creatively beautiful / crazy looking images I've ever seen. From doing mostly corporate headshot around Silicon Valley to shooting a latex wearing, red haired British model with nipple patches… the transition wasn't easy. The most risque shoot I've done prior to this was when Adam Pisoni, the CTO of Yammer Inc, decided to take off his tie and shoot outside! *gasp*
After the initial awkwardness of me introducing myself "Hello ummm I am Moses… I'll be taking your pictures today." and her replying with (in an English accent) "Good to meet you." Pip pip, cheerio, carry on." – I added that last part; the shoot went great. We took some full body pictures, several headshots and a couple of portraits. Below are some of my favorite images from the shoot.
Ohh and one last thing… huge thanks to the super sexy and talented Jodie Truong of JodieStudio for creating my new logo.

[Back To Regions]
(Note: Information Originally Published In 1955 - Presented For Historical Perspective!)
The neighboring counties of Santa Clara and Santa Cruz, with the Santa Cruz Mountains forming the border between the two, are usually grouped together as one winegrowing district. Extensions of this district include the winegrowing areas in San Benito County and in the central coastal counties of Monterey and San Luis Obispo.
Santa Clara County, with some thirty-seven active bonded wineries, rates fourth in number in the state. It can be divided into three winegrowing areas, spreading west and east from the Santa Clara Valley floor to the adjoining hills and mountains.
West of the Santa Clara Valley, in the foothills, lies Los Gatos, and higher yet, in the hills beyond, Saratoga, together forming the Los Gatos-Saratoga area. Here are the homes of some of the finest table wines and champagnes of California, while excellent aperitif and dessert wines are also produced there.
To the east of San Jose lies the hillside Evergreen area with its vineyards stretching onto the slopes of Mt. Hamilton. From this section hail a number of superior table wines.
The southern part of Santa Clara County and of its valley is noted for an important winery section, centering around Madrone, San Martin, and Gilroy, with good wines of all types being produced from the neighboring hillsides. Many a sound "country" table wine also is produced in the small wineries, run mostly by Americans of Italian descent, in the section west of Gilroy up toward the Hecker Pass and in the Uvas area.
Santa Cruz County is noteworthy for its wines although the number of active wineries has been reduced to only two. Some excellent table wines are produced above Felton and some good ones at Soquel. Besides there are scattered vineyard areas in the county including Vinehill, toward Los Gatos, Bonny Doon, southwest of Ben Lomond, Boulder Creek, north of that Scottish-named elevation, the Laurel area in the mountains toward the Santa Clara County line, and the Casserly section, up toward Mt. Madonna.
San Benito yields some well-known table wines south of Hollister, and Monterey County can boast, in the Salinas River Valley foothills above Soledad near Pinnacles National Monument, some very fine vinevards from which champagne has been produced with marked success.
San Luis Obispo County, where Paderewski once grew his wine grapes and almonds, is noted for its hillside table wines of sound quality and especially for its Zinfandel.

London, 1816. A handsome baron. A faux betrothal. And Horatia's plan to join the London literary set takes a dangerous turn. Now that the war with France has ended, Baron Guy Fortescue arrives in England to claim his inheritance, abandoned over thirty years ago when his father fled to France after killing a man in a duel. When Guy is set upon by footpads in London, a stranger, Lord Strathairn, rescues and befriends him. But while traveling to his country estate, Guy is again attacked. He escapes only to knock himself out on a tree branch. Aspiring poet Horatia Cavendish has taken to riding her father's stallion, "The General", around the countryside of Digswell dressed as a groom. She has become bored of her country life and longs to escape to London to pursue her desire to become part of the London literary set. When she discovers Guy lying unconscious on the road, the two are forced to take shelter for the night in a hunting lodge. After Guy discovers her ruse, a friendship develops between them. Guy suspects his relative, Eustace Fennimore is behind the attacks on his life. He has been ensconced in Rosecroft Hall during the family's exile and will become the heir should Guy die. Horatia refuses to believe her godfather, Eustace, is responsible. But when Guy proposes a faux betrothal to give him more time to discover the truth, she agrees. Secure in the knowledge that his daughter will finally wed, Horatia's father allows her to visit her blue-stocking aunt in London. But Horatia's time spent in London proves to be anything but a literary feast, for a dangerous foe plots Guy's demise. She is determined to keep alive her handsome fiance, who has proven more than willing to play the part of her lover even as he resists her attempts to save him.
~Romantic Historical Lovers~ Where History Meets Passion
This story has all the elements of a perfect Regency romance, a handsome Frenchman in fear of his life from unknown quarters, a beautiful girl trying not to fall in love with him and a mysterious Lord who becomes his friend but seems to know a lot more about him than a stranger should.
As a fan of Maggi Andersen, she has done it again with 'A Baron In Her Bed', with a mystery encompassed within a love story that has to be solved, and races along to a satisfying conclusion.
PG Excerpt:
She patted The General's nose and fed him an apple. By the time the last of it had disappeared, she heard the clip of a horse's hooves on the gravel drive. She peeped out of the barn door and saw the baron, tall in the saddle, riding towards the house.
Horatia stepped out and beckoned him. He caught sight of her and rode towards the stables then dismounted and led the horse inside.
"Sorry, my lord," Horatia said, adopting Simon's gruff voice. "We have no footman here. No under-groom neither. I'll stable your horse."
"Simon, good fellow," he said warmly. "I came to thank you again. I am indebted to you."
"No need for that, my lord," she said. "Everything's right and tight here as it happens." She turned her back to lead his horse into one of the stalls. Seizing a brush, she bent and swept it over the horse's flanks.
He came to rest an arm on the stall door. "I am relieved. If you had lost your job, I was going to ask you to work for me."
She straightened to brush the horse's back, confident of the poor light. "Mighty good of you, my lord. But not at all necessary."
"Eh bien, merci encore." He turned towards the door.
Relieved it had gone so well, Horatia stepped out from behind the horse. She looked up to see if he had gone and found him watching her with his arms folded.
The elation left her, and she took a deep, shaky breath.
"Did you really think you could go on fooling me?" A note of outrage lay beneath the humorous tone in his voice. "How many people around here have red hair like yours?"
"My hair's not red," she said, incensed. "It's chestnut."
"I wondered how far you would carry this ruse, Miss Cavendish."
She backed into an empty stall as he strode towards her.
He followed her inside. Reaching over, he whipped off her hat, and her hair came loose and tumbled around her face. "So, what do you have to say in your defense?"
"Nothing, my lord." Horatia lifted her chin, her heart pounding loud in her ears. She chewed her lip. She would have to brazen this out.
Annoyed blue eyes stared into hers. "I do not like to be toyed with. I thought there was something wrong with me."
"Watching you bend over in those breeches. Zut! From the first, I felt a strong attraction to you. And then, when I saw you dressed as a woman, I understood."
"You knew it was me at the dance?" She scowled. "And you deliberately teased me?"
"Don't you think you deserved it?" He seized her shoulders and gave them a shake. "You tricked me. Why?"
She swallowed. "No trickery, my lord. I was dressed this way when I found you, if you recall. I needed to keep up the pretense."
He shrugged. "But why do you dress like that?"
She couldn't explain her restlessness to him and tossed her head. "I prefer to ride astride."
He raised a brow. "You like a strong beast moving beneath you?"
She bristled at the insult. "I like to ride alone." He made it sound as if she gained some sort of indecent enjoyment from the exercise. Her face heated. To ride astride was unfeminine, she knew, but that fact had never bothered her before.
"But to do so places you in peril."
Horatia drew herself up. "I can handle myself as well as a man."
"You believe that, do you?" His gaze flicked over her. What was he thinking? She quivered under his scrutiny.

Power-play woes continue to confound Senatorsby Erin Nicks
OTTAWA – An anemic power play has been a thorn in the side of the Ottawa Senators for some time. Now, as the Senators to prepare to face the Montreal Canadiens in Game 3 of their Eastern Conference Quarterfinals series Saturday night (7 p.m. ET, CNBC, CBC, RDS), the team and its coach were forced to address the issue yet again. .
"It's no secret; we're going to try and get shots and bodies in front," team captain Daniel Alfredsson said. "We've had a couple of good looks on and off, but it hasn't been consistent and I believe, especially on the road, it's even more important to have the power play give you a spark. [In Game 2] we had our chances right before the [Canadiens] scored in the second period, and if we had scored there, it could have been the difference in the game."
But that spark never came, leading to more of the same for the Senators this season. During the final eight regular-season games, Ottawa went 2-for-29 on the man advantage -- the Senators were 25-for-157 for the season, leaving it tied with the New Jersey Devils for 20th in the League with a 15.9 percentage rating.
Through two postseason games, the Senators have had nine shots during six power plays. The penalty kill of the Canadiens finished No. 23, in the regular season, with zero shorthanded goals. However, in addition to the lack of power-play success, Ottawa has also faced seven shorthanded shots from Montreal so far in the series. When coach Paul MacLean was confronted with the opinion that his power play has been "horrific", MacLean was forced to agree.
"It has been [horrific], for sure," MacLean said. "I think we are working diligently at it, but we're still hitting roadblocks. I think the big thing, for me, is that we don't shoot the puck enough. We're too stagnant and predictable in what we do. We're going to work to change that. I think our power play has gotten marginally better in the two games that we've played. Having [Erik] Karlsson on it, that's made a huge difference. But [Friday] we could have really used some production and we didn't generate any goals.
"The Canadiens are a team that attacks during the penalty kill. We have to be taking care of the puck better than we are."
Throughout the regular season, Mika Zibanejad, Kyle Turris, Patrick Wiercioch and Alfredsson all tied for the team lead with three power-play goals each. Wiercioch, who has yet to enter into the postseason lineup, admitted that he's champing at the bit to return and hopefully assist on special teams.
"Obviously if I draw back in, I want to contribute," Wiercioch said. "I don't know when that will be, but whatever situation they put me in, I'd be willing to work towards that. We're all trying to work towards a common goal in this locker room – getting the power-play going and winning games. Of course I want to help."

Claudio Merazzi, eponymous owner of the luxury Italian shoe line is reckoned with colossal respect in the world of couture fashion. He is heavily inspired by his travels around the globe and desires to satisfy women with a strong hidden urge for maverick designs.His strength lies in his ability to fuse unusual colors and materials creating fashion forward shoes which even the most fashion averse would lust for.
Spring gives us far too many reasons to experiment with bold colors, that many times I feel stumped at the thought of mixing and matching all those bold colors in harmonious unison to create a sporty and chic look, wondering whether the hot pink dress that I bought impulsively on a post lunch walk on Fifth Avenue could be accessorised with the indigo blue shoes that are mine only for the perverse reason of disproving my man for saying that I wasn't spunky enough for indigo.To all those who are despairing about getting their colors right, these pair of shoes comes as the ultimate deliverance, the messiah of spring.With a clever combination of hot spring colors like lime, orange, hot pink, teal and yellow in thin strands of seude, effortlessly woven together, these shoes add the spring zing to any monochromatic dress.Team them with a sultry evening dress in white or black and lo behold, your shoes get all the attention they deserve in addition to enhancing the color appeal of the entire outfit.
Tease your way through spring by wearing these dresses to accessorize the shoes(Yup the shoes are the attention mongers).

The place was as advirtised and met my expectations.
We took this trip with children, no grandchildren, because our son that is in the marines is being deployed to afghanistan in 2 weeks.He was home for his pre-deployment leave and we wanted to get away from the Texas heat, go to the mountains, and have some quiet, quality time with him before he leaves. The home was absolutely beautiful, spacious enough for everyone to have their privacy, decorated so tastefully, and the views were incredible. We hope to all go back when he comes home from afghanistan and stay in the same home.
We thoroughly enjoyed the home and its surroundings. I loved the fact that it was not in the middle of town. The acreage was nice to explore and the setting was just beautiful. We are looking to rent this home again.
The Bear Lodge is a fabulous house, great for all ages including small children.
A perfectly comfortable, unique, and well-equipped home rental for our rather large group of 9 men, with suitable bedding for all. Couples would be able to include more people with same level of comfort. Only thing 'lacking' is large TV in living room area; but nice one in 'billiard room' downstairs. Enjoyed just 'crashing' at end of vigorous ski days, surprisingly opting for cooking/grilling in on two of our nights instead of driving the 5 minutes into Breck.
The team at VisitBreck was absolutely fantastic to deal with from start to finish. After we completed our booking, they were helpful in supplying information for Equipment rentals and lift tickets. All in all, it was a fantastic experience and I would definitely recommend VisitBreck for future visits.
Lovely house we had a great time. We really enjoyed everything about it and we had plenty of room.
We have the following comments, the house was very poorly cleaned up and all the furniture is in bad shape including the chairs, of the dinning room. The sofas of the living room was very dirty , all tbe windows need maintenance. The kitchen and all the items are so dirty we have to clean up everthing. The oven was useless because it was so dirty even the dishwasher. We stayed at this house in other years about 10 years ago and tbe house was amazing so thats the reason to compare it. We want to stay in this house because the experience so we were a little dissapointment. We expect that you take this comments like a constructuvily critiscm.
Absolutely do not stay in this house. 1) The whole house had a septic problem and we had the maintenance people out twice (in a 5 day trip) and they blew us off the first time. They came back the second time and found a problem but would not disclose the issue. 2) Only half the outlets work in the entire house. 3) Major water pressure issues. Water will stop running in showers if more than 2 people are taking showers. 4) Property management obviously did not check house before we showed up because they had to come replace multiple light bulbs in the house, mainly kitchen. 6) Property management didn't check any of the fireplaces because neither of 2 gas fireplaces would work. Structurally nice house. Nice pictures on VRBO. Do not pay to stay here. Owners of this place please contact me to discus.
Had a great week at this property, great location and beautiful views from all around the house. Lots activitys to do around town, kept the kids entertained. There's just nothing quite like beautiful Colorado in the summer, would definitely like to return to this property and would recommend it to my friends!
We loved staying here. Have been before and wanted to come back. Property is under new management and cleaning staff and it shows! We had 3 families total with kids 9-15 and it was great. Love the spectacular views. Kids loved the hills for sledding. Easy to drive to gondola and ski. Love the peace here!! We will definitely be back. Top notch!!
Have loved coming here year after year and soaking in the glorious views in this incredible log home. Easily accommodates multiple families and the surrounding property creates a sanctuary of privacy and wildlife. Close to everything outdoors and town too.
Me and my family continually come back here every summer and it is the most beautiful house up here. This property in 11 acres of beauty and serenity. The new cleaning crew has done an amazing job cleaning up this beauty up mountain home. All of the bad reviews of this home are totally not true. It is amazing and I will continue to come to this home for as long as I can. Me and my friends and family love this home and appreciate everything it has to offer.
I have been privileged to stay at Bear Loge many times over the last several years, and have found it to be one of the most spacious, comfortable, beautiful homes I have stayed in----particularly in a resort area. I am retuning the end of August for about 5 days, and looking forward to being back in a welcoming, warm, home.
Our experience at Bear Lodge was exceptional! The house is spacious, comfortable and accommodating for multiple families. We loved staying together in one home, but enjoyed everyone having plenty of their own space. The views from inside the house are breathtaking. We left feeling refreshed and recharged. We enjoyed every aspect of this home, and look forward to planning our next visit!
Perfectly located for just about any outdoor activity in Colorado. I did lots of fishing and hiking and couldn't have loved it more. And the house is beautiful. Spacious and relaxing with beautiful views. There's plenty of space outside to roam and read. Even got to do a little painting. Wonderful stay.
Great place to have a get away. Love the setting. Breathtaking views. It's large, comfy and cozy.
Our group had a great time on the mountain and in the town of Breck.
Bear Lodge is everything you could ask for in a family vacation. There is so much room - not just for sleeping but also two congregation areas and a dining table for 12 when you want to be together. The furnishings are right out of a catalog for what a mountain should look like. Very short drive into town but seems very isolated. Great outdoor area with fire pit for campfire evenings. Playground for the small ones. Has all the electronics even though we never turned on the TV. Wi-fi works great. Decent cell phone signal. From the six year old to the grandparent, everyone wants to come back for another week at Bear Lodge!!!!

Kinslayer (Lotus War)
Kinslayer by Jay Kristoff is the second book in the Lotus War trilogy (I assume it's a trilogy >.>). These books take genre-bending to the extreme with a mix of steampunk, japanese futuristic culture, mythical beasts, and environmental apocalyptic events. I have to admit that I was not as thrilled with Stormdancer (Lotus War #1) as many of you, but I am so converted with Kinslayer! If you were like me and didn't quite get what all the fuss was about, you should definitely check out this second book, which is more action-packed, more character-packed, and so many feels!
Note: I received an ARC of Kinslayer from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Some things may have changed in the final version.
Kinslayer by Jay Kristoff (The Lotus War #2)
Published by Thomas Dunne Books on Sept. 17th, 2013
Genres: Fantasy, Steampunk
Length: 432 pages
How I got my copy: Publisher
IndieBound - Book Depository - Goodreads
Purchases made support this blog
The mad Shōgun Yoritomo has been assassinated by the Stormdancer Yukiko, and the threat of civil war looms over the Shima Imperium. The Lotus Guild conspires to renew the nation's broken dynasty and crush the growing rebellion simultaneously – by endorsing a new Shōgun who desires nothing more than to see Yukiko dead.
Yukiko and the mighty thunder tiger Buruu have been cast in the role of heroes by the Kagé rebellion. But Yukiko herself is blinded by rage over her father's death, and her ability to hear the thoughts of beasts is swelling beyond her power to control. Along with Buruu, Yukiko's anchor is Kin, the rebel Guildsman who helped her escape from Yoritomo's clutches. But Kin has his own secrets, and is haunted by visions of a future he'd rather die than see realized.
Kagé assassins lurk within the Shōgun's palace, plotting to end the new dynasty before it begins. A waif from Kigen's gutters begins a friendship that could undo the entire empire. A new enemy gathers its strength, readying to push the fracturing Shima imperium into a war it cannot hope to survive. And across raging oceans, amongst islands of black glass, Yukiko and Buruu will face foes no katana or talon can defeat.
The ghosts of a blood-stained past.
- Kinslayer's writing is delicious. I like it much more than Stormdancer's ;-). I found myself drawn in by the poetic descriptions, clutching the cover during the action, and sniffling at the adorable animal voices >.>. I am convinced that Mr. Kristoff must have actually got inside a dog's head based on how well he captured the thoughts of a certain canine companion who I adore and want to see again (hint hint!).
- I know that there were some complaints about the use of japanese-styled language in Stormdancer and am happy to report that some of the specifics have been fixed in Kinslayer. I also have very much enjoyed exploring farther parts of the world beyond the wasteland of the chi fields.
- There are a lot of characters and a lot of POV in Kinslayer and it works wonderfully. We get about four distinct storylines that all carefully wind together for the epic conclusion; this is how fantasy storytelling should be!
- Omg the feels. There were a lot of all varieties D:
- I looooove grey characters and the multiple POV helps develop those in between characters so much. I loved the internal conflict that I'm sure many rebels really do feel when deciding how much sacrifice is too much. Also omg I must know what happens in the next book!
- Do not eat while reading Kinslayer. There are a fair number of gross scenes involving flaying flesh, losing eyeballs, and torture. You have been warned.
- There are a couple of scenes that seem kind of random in hindsight. I'm hoping a certain visit to some monks makes more sense in the next book, since right now it seemed like a convenient way to move the plot along and that makes me sad.
Kinslayer goes far beyond not falling to second book syndrome by improving greatly from the first book. I feel so much more connected to these characters and this world and I want them to win dammit! Kristoff does a marvelous job of bringing many characters to life, including some furry friends, and I'm quite excited to see where he brings us next!

Real Madrid defender Sergio Ramos has emerged as a surprise transfer target for Manchester City and could expect to earn a staggering salary worth £7.7 million a year if he decided to pursue a fresh challenge in the Premier League next season.
Ramos remains an important figure for Los Blancos, but has essentially achieved all he can at the Bernabeu and as a result former Madrid manager Manuel Pellegrini reportedly believes he would consider a shock move to City.
That is according to the Daily Star, who believe that any City approach would be met with swift competition from Chelsea and another man who's coached Ramos before in Jose Mourinho.

-Barcelona forced to deny interest in Sergio Ramos
-Jose Mourinho once asked Ramos to join Chelsea
Would Ramos seriously consider City?
Premier League interest in Ramos is nothing new, with the player's brother and agent Rene confirming he received an offer from an English club towards the back end of last season.
Chelsea were thought to be the club who considered that move, but interest from City is new and shows that the Premier League champions believe they can now compete for the world's top players in every position if available.
The 28-year-old still has more than two years left on his current Madrid contract, although Los Blancos have proved themselves to be pretty ruthless with showing stars the door if they feel a better alternative is on the market.
Ruthless Perez would surely listen to an acceptable offer
Xabio Alonso and Mesut Ozil were both hugely popular in Madrid and still got moved on by club president Florentino Perez, proving that ever player has their price.
City believe Ramos is no exception and think wages of roughly £148,000-a-week would be enough to bring him to Manchester, even if Chelsea firm up their interest and challenge their biggest title rivals for a player with an incredible wealth of experience at the highest level.
Madrid will likely review whether Ramos remains their best option at centre-back when the current campaign concludes, particularly with his team-mate Raphael Varane emerging as possibly the world's best young player in that position.
In truth neither Chelsea or City don't look particularly short in defence, but if Ramos is indeed available expect a top European club to make room for him very quickly.

PETERSBURG, Va. - A convicted sex offender is wanted by U.S. Marshals after failing to self-report to a transitional center after his release from prison earlier this month, according to WTVR.
Matthew Stager, 44, was released from the Federal Correctional Complex in Virginia on Feb. 2. He was given a one-day furlough to travel to Austin, Texas and signed a form acknowledging that he was he was still in the custody of the bureau of prisons until his projected release date in July.
His signature acknowledged that he could be charged with escape should he fail to report to the Austin Transitional House as directed. He was last seen at the Richmond International Airport on Feb. 2 after failing to make his scheduled flight to Austin as required.
Stager's current whereabouts are unknown, according to U.S. Marshals. His last known location was in Petersburg. He has no specific ties to the Hampton Roads area of Virginia, but authorities said he may have recently traveled through that part of the state.
Stager has connections in multiple states around the country, officials said.
Stager is a convicted sex offender and has a history of drug abuse and mental health concerns, according to U.S. Marshals. He was convicted in NC in 1999 of indecent liberties with a minor and was required to register as a sex offender for life. He is described as a white or Hispanic male, 5'8″ tall, 145 pounds, with blonde or strawberry hair, green eyes and dozens of facial tattoos.
Stager may still be in the area as he has no transportation and no known family or associates in Virginia. Anyone with information about Stager is asked to call the U.S. Marshals at 1-877-926-8332.

Why would you choose a push mower over a gas or electric-driven model? Besides providing a better workout, they're easier to maintain, and easier to store. And in the case of designer Joe McWha's Little Mow, they can actually look more like a piece of modern art than just a lawn care tool.
The overall design and engineering of push mowers hasn't changed in probably 100 years, but McWha's creation looks right at home in the 21st century with its curved lines and other modern design cues. It even incorporates a lawn clipping catcher that doubles as a cover while the mower is stowed away. All that's missing is a place where we can actually buy one, as it doesn't look like the Little Mow is available for sale—at least yet. [Joe McWa via Notcot]

Make Ready, O Manger: Advent Reflections – November 21 (The Entrance of the Theotokos into the Temple)
The Theotokos is brought to God in a beautiful procession with lighted candles, singing and dancing and joy to the King of kings into the Holy of Holies!
How do we approach God in prayer?
When David brought the ark (a type of the Theotokos) into Jerusalem, he did it naked, leaping and dancing "with shouts and the sound of the trumpets" (2 Sam. 6).
Does this sound like us as we go to pray?
Do we have this level of self-forgetfulness, exuberant joy, or excitement?
Do we want to be there in the presence of God?
If not, what's going on with the heart?
Is the heart with God and aligned with His will or indifferent, pursuing earthly things, far from Him?
"Enter into His gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name." (Psalm 100)
If we love God like Joachim and Anna, the Theotokos and David, then this is how we should enter into the presence of God.
May we all show this deep, joyful love from our hearts for our King as we approach Him in prayer this day and every day of our lives.

I hope you've all been watching the original Between Two Ferns, but if you haven't, you should. Once that's taken care of, you should watch Madison copy the format in her interview with author James Kennedy, because it's hilarious.
I don't know how she manages to keep a straight face through the whole thing. That girl is made of talent. James Kennedy is pretty okay, too, but he's no Madison. As Madison kind of points out.

The advantage of no deposit casinos
When you begin to play in an online casino you will want to know the advantages of going for a normal promotion or gifts of free money from no deposit casinos. Basically if you have never played then the bonuses which do not require any money being put down is a good way to test the casino games. Which is why many do offer this to new sign ups. For experienced players having an option of free casino money or another type might depend on if the user wants to just get into action without worries of doing the bonus correctly knowing that on a deposit they will still be granted extra credits. Some times the best best no deposit online casino bonus is not always the best bargain and some just way it out and decide that it isn't worth it. So they do get straight into the action playing the casino games, upping their bets as they see fit where they increase their chances of winning.

It allows you to take ½ a table on a space-available basis to display and/or market items for sale from Thursday through Saturday but does not require you to do so. It does NOT allow for any table space on Sunday.

The 2019 Show
As in years past, the 2019 Los Angeles International Pen Show will be held in Manhattan Beach, CA, on President's Day weekend 2019 at the same hotel as in past years, the Westdrift Manhattan Beach.

Make arrangements early by returning the brochure's registration form along with your payment, if you want to be sure you have a table! It is a requirement that you sign and return the form along with your payment for a table.
Because Monday, February 18 is the President's Day holiday, you can extend your stay and see the sites of Los Angeles or simply avoid the Sunday airline fares and return home on Monday.

Special features of the show include both seminars and rare pens for sale and exhibit. In 2018, a variety of seminars were given by experts in a number of writing-related fields.

Children under 12 will be admitted free when accompanied by a parent who pays one of the following: (1) the Saturday Seminar and Sunday Show only "General Admission" fee, or (2) the "Trader" admission fee.
