Strength, mobility, and ease through barre and foam rolling myofascial release classes.
We are so proud to offer up the instruction of our talented, charismatic and soulful team. We find writing bio's of ourselves pretty awkward, so we decided we'd write each other's. Enjoy!
Tam is one of the most laid back and relatable individuals you will ever meet. She teaches with incredible intention, treats her peers warmly and creates a supportive learning environment for all levels of ability. As a former high school teacher, her attention to detail and capacity for clear communication at the barre is unmatched. She is truly excellent at adapting her class to everyone taking it.
Barre is not just a form of fitness for Tam; barre is in her bones. She spent her upbringing studying ballet as if it were her second, or maybe even first language. It is that foundation in the type of movement Remedy is based on that translates into an authentic and truly credible experience.
Maggie embodies a unique combination of confidence and ease. She brings these qualities into her teaching and blends them with a deep reserve of creativity and expertise. You will never take the same class twice from Maggie, and you will always leave feeling more spacious and supported from inside. From her delicious metaphors, luscious flow, and challenging sequences, Maggie is a natural teacher who can synthesize her background in dance, massage therapy, and myofascial release for truly crave-able classes.
If you don't know that Maggie spent much of her formative years in a dance studio when you first meet her, it is immediately apparent when she moves. Her background in dance and her career as a massage therapist are integral to Remedy's innovative combination of barre and foam rolling.
Emma thinks movement should help you connect to the inner power and joy of being in your body. Carrying a little baggage after being told she did not have the right "body type" to take dance classes at her performing arts high school, Emma came to yoga because it was one of the only "Phys. Ed" classes that did not intimidate her. To her surprise, movement, meditation, and asana replaced typical teenage vulnerabilities with feelings of strength and self-worth. Yoga soon gave Emma the tools to approach and revisit different schools of movement with joy and confidence rather than judgment and shame. In 2014, after a decade of regular practice, Emma completed her 200-hour teacher training at Laughing Lotus in San Francisco. Emma is deeply invested in creating a safe space for all bodies and has studied trauma-informed yoga, which has hugely influenced all of her class offerings. Expect Emma's classes to be high energy, light-hearted, filled with accessible challenges, and infused with dynamic movement. Her goal is for you to leave every class sweaty, smiley, and safe. Off the mat, Emma is a pizza enthusiast, a dog lover, and a graduate school student studying somatic psychology.
Grace is our Earth Mama. As a world traveler whose interests lie in environmental sustainability, organic gardening, globally-inspired cooking and teaching community yoga, she brings a sense of peaceful meditation into her instruction style. Grace's Roll classes are supportive, nurturing, and akin to restorative yoga.
Jackie's class is like a barre dance party. She likes to move big to the beat. Her positive energy immerses us and captivates the room along with her eclectic choice of music, which can range anywhere from Phil Collins to Pitbull! In her personal life, Jackie is an animal activist and shelter volunteer. When she isn't valuing her body through movement and tension release, she is at home with her own cat and dog fur babies and most likely an animal she is lovingly fostering.
Hayley is a friendly goddess of yoga, bodywork and mother earth. Her passion for life and overall enthusiasm is permeable and infectious. Her class is anatomically technical and encourages its participants to feel their deeper bodies within. When Hayley isn't working her private massage therapy practice in Remedy's loft or teaching yoga and barre in Oakland, she is spending half the week in Grass Valley with her partner. She is open minded, tolerant and always makes time for interesting conversations.
Tammy holds a deep appreciation for learning, laughing and keeping it cool. Although she is a student of all things interesting, her studies focus on the workings of the human body. As founder of Capoeira Brasil East Bay and The Nourished Belly Nutrition Coaching, her harmony with the body is obvious when she teaches. Her class flow is natural, approachable and provides a practical essence of ease.
Nati is our Israeli diva. She loves açaí bowls, oat lattes, and helping women break every glass ceiling. When she's not teaching, she writes and consults for local female-owned businesses and supports mission-oriented projects. She loves connecting with people and helping them get stronger and feel empowered to do whatever they want. Come to her class expecting a warm welcome, hands-on adjustments, and some crazy hair.
Jasmine is a former competitive hip-hop and bhangra dancer and has a life-long passion for movement, fitness and dance. It wasn't until 2015--when she quit her SF law firm job and moved to Las Vegas--that she became a full-fledged fitness instructor. Wait, what? ….
Long story short: Jasmine, the lawyer, became Jasmine, the cycling instructor. And now, she's living in the Easy Bay being both (and hopefully more!). Jasmine teaches cycling at Ride Oakland, sporadically teaches bhangra/hip-hop dance classes, loves teaching Barre at her neighborhood studio, Remedy, and is a lawyer for Pinterest. She loves bringing bhangra (North Indian folk art) music and movement into her classes. Her teaching mantra is to help people find and optimize their potential, make connections between their mental and physical strength, and create/find community.
Taryn is a total boss. Her/Their class is an all-inclusive experience. She/They work/s hard on providing a challenging experience that speaks to all levels and modifications. Things we love about her/their class include her/their casual attitude of inclusion, dry and witty sense of humor and her/their indie inspired, womxn-centric playlist choices.
Taryn's background in education and dance is apparent in their concise, detailed instruction, which helps take the load off your brain while your body is working HARD in this super challenging class.
As an ex-ballet dancer, Lyz discovered the power of workouts that combine strength and mobility in her mid-20's after developing painful bursitis in her hips. Lyz's classes encourage you to use exactly the amount of effort required to bring your body to its natural edge while avoiding overwork. She believes breath-movement connection and loves supporting people on movement journeys that last years. Her classes are known for creativity and sense of humor - you'll be forgiven if your pulses miss a beat. Outside the barre studio, Lyz guides Strala yoga classes in Oakland, walks Lake Merritt with her dog, Jack London, and works to be a strong and thoughtful member of the Resistance.
Shanti Jourdan began her yoga journey at age 10 as a form of conditioning for her ballet and modern dance training. Western dance studies ended at 13 but yoga has been a continual source of healing and transformation ever since that first class. She is a dedicated yoga instructor with over a decade of teaching experience and is thrilled to now be teaching barre as well.
Attending barre classes was an integral part of healing chronic hip and back pain for Shanti after years of over-developed hip flexors. This personal experience of healing through core awareness can be felt in Shanti's classes through cues that increase stability and muscular activation. Her teaching style is warm and playful with emphasis on alignment, breath, and rejuvenation. Shanti is also a professional bellydancer and avid Parks and Recreation watcher.
Mimi has been in the wellness field for 25 years. She started as a massage therapist learning anatomy and physiology, and working in a variety of wellness settings. She then went on to receive her masters degree in public health with an emphasis in health education. As a health educator, Mimi worked with community groups to help them participate in chronic disease research studies.
Mimi discovered the Ballet Barre when her youngest daughter was a year old. She came out of class one day with tears of joy and appreciation because her body felt so much better when she practiced regularly. She became a devoted student and later a teacher. She continues to study biomechanics, alignment and nutrition, attend teacher trainings and refine her teaching skills. She believes there are always places to learn and grow as a teacher. She has a passion for the Remedy community and loves working with clients that are recovering from injury, chronic illness, pregnancy, childbirth, and and are pre and post-partum. She loves to support clients that are new to group exercise and ballet barre instruction.

Some of the masterpieces created by Dominic LaFerla. (Photo by Gary Stuart)

Dominic LaFerla has created his own Versailles.
Nestled on two large lots on a quiet street in Walteria, there is a 2,300 square-foot home that, in design, is on par with Hearst's Castle and far surpasses the most decorative homes just to the east, on the Palos Verdes Peninsula.
LaFerla, the longtime owner of Dominic J. LaFerla & Sons, has spent his career custom designing walls and ceiling ornamental staff. He's accustomed to the lavish — having provided the palatial plaster for the rich and famous all over the world.
But now, semi-retired, he's working on his own home: LaFerla has turned his main house, in Torrance's Walteria neighborhood, into an opulent art gallery, opting to live in a second structure on the same property.
Found inside the well-secured house-cum-gallery are nine hand-detailed ceiling domes, life-sized marble statues and elaborate painted mantles. There are also walls and pedestals for various pieces in his collection — including baroque and neoclassical frescos, mythical goddesses, angels, coats-of-arms, marble lions, desk sculptures and ornate wall paintings.
Every available space is filled with more vibrant color and gold than the eye can bear.
"My whole plan was to make my home appear as if you are walking into a jewelry box," LaFerla said. "I've been working on this house almost all my life."

His parents, when he was younger, thought he was addicted to his artistic endeavors and surprisingly didn't offer much encouragement. LaFerla's formal education ended in the seventh-grade.
But at a youthful 84, LaFerla is a global master molder who has perfected the art of carving, sanding, plastering, painting, chiseling, scraping and stippling — essentially an artistic Renaissance man.
His delicate paintbrush techniques and self-made tools — as well as his mastery of light, color and textures — leave nothing to a viewer's imagination, as he generously brings to life breathtaking visions. The gold paint, which he uses liberally, costs $150 per gallon.
He buys plain marble figures ordered from Italian sources, then details them to his own liking.
The mottled-and-streaked plaster domes and alcoves in the house seem authentically vintage — looking as if they were plucked right out of the late 17th or early 18th centuries.
Some of the house's visitors, LaFerla said, have been moved to tears upon entering the front door.
Desipite the grandeur of the house, however, LaFleur remains humble.
The master artist said he owes everything he has accomplished to his long-time partner, Dave Jindra of San Pedro, who has worked faithfully by his side for more than 36 years. Jindra pushed him to take on big jobs around the world, when, LaFerla said, he didn't have the guts to do it himself.
"Dominic is a little more flamboyant than I am," Jindra said about their individual styles. "He loves the ornate, almost grotesque stuff. I'm a little more old world — but I couldn't have worked for a nicer, more creative individual."
Since about 1967, when LaFerla first bought the property, he and Jindra have continuously built up, torn down, then built up again the inside of the Walteria house.
LaFerla has redesigned three of his nine spectacular ceiling domes and an expert in the field of dome artistry.
Even today, he isn't satisfied with what appears to be the most elegant office money could buy: LaFerla is toying with the idea of tearing the house's dome out and starting over with a new design.
LeFerla said at one time he knew he was impossible to live with due to his unconditional striving toward artistic exactitude.
Years ago, his obsession cost him a marriage. But, he said, time has a way of remedying past mistakes. LaFerla will soon remarry his beloved Victoria in a couple of weeks.
"This property is his masterpiece," said an amiable Victoria LaFerla, waving her hand around a rococo-inspired bedroom Louis XIV would have approved of. "Dominic is a perfectionist in everything he does."
Both LaFerla and Jindra agree they have done a lot of experimentation that has paid off through the years.
"You are not going to see any competition in my field," said LaFerla, a homebody who seldom ventures out of his elaborate hide-away.
"I've been offered big jobs in Italy and around the world," he added, "but I'd rather stay here and do artwork and sculpture than go on a two-week vacation where nothing is produced at the end of it."

Q: Utilise GPU automatically for applications? I have seen several questions on this forum regarding the GPU drivers or GPU power being utilized for some applications (like this) but none of them answer my question. As I have switched from Windows to Linux only today, I am a bit unfamiliar with it

Does Ubuntu automatically utilize GPU for certain applications? If not is there any way to dedicate certain applications to utilize 'High performance' hardware like to GPU to boost themselves?

BTW: would there be any single GUI tool to monitor both CPU and GPU (memory too, if possible)?

This and related inquiries have all been united here, to enable understudies to see how to compose a 3-page exposition or paper, and to what extent that indeed is.
The best research paper writing services take on writing.
Now and then it is harder to compose a 3-page examine piece than it is to write a more drawn out one. When you consider what number of words is a 3-page paper, you realize that you will write a piece that is around 750 words in length. In that short measure of "time," you should recognize a subject, build up a theory articulation, and afterward build up that proposition.
You should thoroughly consider precisely how you build up a short piece.
Settling on a Topic: Your theme should be minimal for a 3-page paper or exposition. You won't have the capacity to address the reasons for the Great Depression. You may, on the off chance that you are cautious, can send a sub-clause, for example, securities exchange purchasing on edge.
Building up a proposal proclamation, when you have limited your subject accurately, may not be excessively troublesome, but instead, you might need to direct some underlying exploration before you do this.
Your examination for a 3-page explore paper will likewise be very tight, and you may need to burrow profound to discover insightful assets on such a restricted subject.
Building up your framework for the substance you expect to should be exact as well. You have no space to veer from the subject by any stretch of the imagination.
When you consider what amount is three pages twofold separated, you should be exceptionally watchful as you compose that first draft. Lose any superfluous words. Be relatively similar to Ernest Hemingway – essential and direct with least descriptors and verb modifiers and other enlightening expressions.
Your last draft will presumably be shaved significantly more.
What's more, this is entirely why when understudies ask to what extent does it take to compose a 3-page paper. We need to state that it can take a while.
If you are in this circumstance and thinking about how to compose a 3-page paper quick, you are presumably in a tough situation. It won't complete.
Then again, you can look at an audit of paper composing administrations, get on the web and request one up from an administration that can assemble a unique piece for you in an hour or two. You may not know how to compose a 3-page paper in 60 minutes. However, some talented scholars can, if you locate the correct administration.
Things being what they are, to what extent will it take you to compose a 3-page exposition or paper? The appropriate response is, it depends only on Academic Writing Pro. It relies upon your capacity to limit a subject and build up a proposal proclamation rapidly; it relies upon how quick you can locate the correct assets and your aptitude as an essayist. Merely recollect, the shorter research pieces can now and again take longer than the bigger ones by one of the best research paper writing services in USA.

Thank God for the tough spots He put you in. That is where He is getting His love through you to the unlovely, and to people who harm you. That is how Jesus lived on earth, expressing the love of God to those who criticized and hated Him; and that is how Jesus now lives in us, expressing the same love through us.

Home Atlanta News Buffalo supermarket to reopen 2 months after racist shooting
Buffalo supermarket to reopen 2 months after racist shooting
The Buffalo supermarket where 10 Black people were killed by a white gunman is set to reopen its doors to the public Friday, two months after the racist attack.
A moment of silence and prayer will be held Thursday at Tops Friendly Market to honor the victims, employees and community impacted by the May 14 mass shooting, with a ceremonial reopening of the overhauled store before customers return Friday, the company said.
Ten Black people were killed when a then-18-year-old gunman wearing body armor and carrying a semiautomatic rifle opened fire on weekend shoppers and employees. Three people were wounded in the massacre.
Investigators say the shooter was motivated by white supremacist beliefs and researched the demographics of the predominantly Black neighborhood where the market is located with the intent of killing as many Black people as possible. He drove for more than three hours from his home in Conklin, New York, to carry out the attack, authorities said.
On Thursday, a federal grand jury indicted the shooter, Payton Gendron, on counts including federal hate crime charges punishable by the death penalty. Federal charges were first announced last month, and Gendron has pleaded not guilty to state and federal charges.
"The Justice Department fully recognizes the threat that white supremacist violence poses to the safety of the American people and American democracy," U.S. Attorney General Merrick Garland said.
The decision to reopen, rather than relocate, the store has been met with mixed emotions in the East Buffalo neighborhood that, beset by high poverty, fought for years to get a grocery store. Since opening in 2003, the Tops location remains the only supermarket in the immediate area. Its closure after the shooting forced many residents to take buses to other locations or rely on stopgap measures like neighborhood giveaways to access fresh food.
"We must go on," said Tops employee Rosalie Bishop, who has worked at the store for 12 years. She wants the store open again — and never for a moment considered not returning to work with colleagues who she considers family.
"The store is there for a reason. The store is still there for a reason," said Bishop, 58, who was on her way to work when the shooting happened and said she's still processing her near miss. "The people will come back. They might not come today or tomorrow, but they will come back."
Other neighbors say reopening isn't the best path forward.
Suggestions to local media and on social networks include turning the site into a park or recreational center that would bring the community together, or having several supermarkets that are more dispersed throughout Buffalo's East Side.
Some simply can't imagine entering a store where such terrible events took place.
Gendron was arrested just outside the store's front entrance.
Authorities say he was motivated by white supremacist beliefs, including a baseless conspiracy theory about a plot to diminish the influence of white people. He chronicled his plans for months in an online diary, authorities said, and livestreamed the attack via a helmet camera.
Mayor Byron Brown said he was apprehensive while first touring the remodeled store but believes the overhaul will be helpful to customers.
"I realize that not everyone will feel comfortable returning to the store," he said in a statement, adding that he is encouraging other retailers to serve the area.
"None of us will ever forget the cruel, racist attack," Brown said. The reopening is a step toward healing, he said.
Bishop already has returned to the store to help prepare. Her first day went smoothly, but a security drill with flashing lights on the second day sent her home, shaken, mid-shift. Still, she said she is not afraid for her safety.
"I just want peace. I just want peace," Bishop said. "It'll never go back to the way it was. We're not looking for the way it was. But peace."

Lawrence Warren, the founder of the ethical fashion accessories range WHERE, approached The Ideas Network to launch a range of sandals that were exclusive to Topshop's Oxford Circus store.
To raise brand awareness and drive footfall into the store on the launch weekend. To reinforce the key messages: the sandals are environmentally friendly and ethical fashion need not cost the earth.
The plan was to target national, online and London titles to create a buzz around the sandals at the same time as hitting trade publications to reach potential stockists.
The range was positioned as a unique example of leading designers teaming up with Fair Trade communities to create 'fashion with a conscience'.
The campaign picked up a half page in the Evening Standard on the Friday before launch. Pieces appeared in the Observer Magazine, The Independent, The Guardian and Daily Express. Nearly 20 websites covered it, as did thelondonpaper, London Lite and Time Out, and it was picked up in trade titles Drapers and Retail Week.
One style of the sandal has nearly sold out in Topshop, and French Marie Claire is featuring it in a future ethical feature.
The company has now had enquires from M&S, Debenhams, Sainsbury's, Monsoon, Next and John Lewis.

Q: Application.Inputbox if then statement results mismatch when cancelled I am trying to automate repetitive tasks by using .inputboxes in Excel.
Note: CopyAmt is an integer returned from another InputBox, userInputRange is type 8 box, and RowCnt is the Row.Count of userInputRange.
For i = 1 To CopyAmt
    userInputRange.Copy
    ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt, 0).Activate
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial
    ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveCell.Offset(, 24), ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt - 1, 24)).Value = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Internal Value",  Type:=2)
Next i

If a user was to click Cancel, I would want to exit the sub only after deleting the selection that was just pasted on line 4 of the above code. This is what I was trying.
For i = 1 To CopyAmt
    userInputRange.Copy
    ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt, 0).Activate
    ActiveCell.PasteSpecial
    ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveCell.Offset(, 24), ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt - 1, 24)).Value = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Internal Value",  Type:=2)
    If ActiveSheet.Range(ActiveCell.Offset(, 24), ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt - 1, 24)).Value = False Then
        Selection.Delete
        Exit Sub
    End If
Next i

This results in a mistype and I would love some clarification on the things I am doing wrong, or just not efficiently.
Thank you for your time.

A: Sean,
Give this a try. Note: this is untested code but should work.
For i = 1 To CopyAmt

  userInputRange.Copy
  ActiveCell.Offset(RowCnt, 0).Activate '*** Changes ActiveCell!
  With ActiveCell                       '*** Use With block to simplify code
    .PasteSpecial
    Temp = Application.InputBox(Prompt:="Internal Value")
    If (Temp <> False) Then
      ActiveSheet.Range(.Offset(, 24), .Offset(RowCnt - 1, 24)).Value = Temp
    Else
      .ClearContents '*** You don't want to delete the cell just clear the value.
      Return         '*** Get me out of the Subroutine
    End If

  End With

Next i

Edited: Removed the Type=2 from the Application.InputBox line.
You can test for the type of data your need in the latter code.

The VW Eos is likely to be discontinued in its current form and be replaced by a larger soft-top, according to VW head of design Klaus Bischoff.
Folding hardtop to be replaced by a larger cabrio
Eos will not be replaced, says VW's design boss
Speaking at the launch of the VW Beetle Cabriolet in LA, which joins the Eos and Golf in VW's open-top line-up, Bischoff revealed: "The Eos will not be prolonged when it comes off the market. Retractable hardtops are disappearing from the market now, and to be honest that's not something I mind."
Bischoff confirmed plans to build a larger, full-size four-seater convertible were under way as one of 100 design studies his team is currently working on.
"There's definitely room in our line-up for a larger convertible, so why not do it?" he said at the LA motor show. "The problem with such ambitions is that all our existing factories are at full capacity, so any new additions means building new factories."

Changes to Franklin Lakes assisted living facility considered
Marsha A. Stoltz
FRANKLIN LAKES – The planner for a proposed assisted living complex was questioned Thursday night about reconfiguring the building so that it better conforms with the residential character of the neighborhood.
Sunrise Senior Living wants to build a two-story T-shaped assisted living facility on Franklin Avenue. The borough presently does not allow such facilities anywhere in its borders.
On Thursday, the applicant's planner, Paul Philips, presented almost two hours of testimony before the borough Zoning Board on why the 73,207-square-foot building should be approved for construction in a residential zone.
Elections 2017: Northwest Bergen County primary candidates
Police: Home aide stole $20,000 worth of items from clients
Borough planner Kendra Lelie questioned the 320 to 330-foot expanse of the building proposed along Shirley Avenue.
"What kind of staggering are you willing to do?" Lelie asked. "This is a huge issue. The neighborhood has front lawns, space between the homes, trees. How are you going to get close to a single-family character with architectural changes?"
Borough engineer Marisa Tiberi asked what would happen if the structure was flipped so that the top of the T-shape now planned for Shirley Avenue was turned to face the commercial nursery to the south.
"This would leave the narrow portion closest to the residential homes," said Tiberi.
Phillips noted that by "flipping" the design, the driveways and parking would then face Shirley Avenue, something the current design avoids.
Tiberi then suggested a U-shaped building with the points facing Franklin Avenue to further reduce the amount of building along Shirley Avenue.
Zoning board member William Saracino questioned how many units would be lost if the western half of the T-shape along Shirley Avenue was removed.
Sunrise senior vice-president Jerry Liang estimated 30 units, but said the building would have to be redesigned if that were the case to accommodate a balance of assisted-care and dementia patients in different sections.
Also at Thursday's meeting, Phillips argued that assisted care facilities are considered "inherently beneficial" by the state, and that the 88-unit project meets the four-point so-called "Sica Test" that exempts such applicants from meeting the borough's zoning criteria.
One of those points is "imposing reasonable conditions on the use." Phillips observed that Sunrise had abandoned an earlier proposal for a three-story building to make it less imposing for the neighborhood.
Phillips also indicated Thursday that Sunrise would seek additional variance relief for a finished building height of 43 feet 10 inches above the lowest grade, where 40 feet is allowed.
Some 20 residents attended the hearing, seven speaking during the public portion of the meeting. Most continue to challenge the building's placement in a residential neighborhood and the need for such a facility in Franklin Lakes.
"There are 16 facilities within 10 miles of Franklin Lakes, four of them Sunrise facilities," said Margaret Palus of Shirley Avenue. "Why is there such a need in Franklin Lakes?"
The next hearing date was undecided because of a Sunrise request for a special meeting. When the board does convene again on this application, the borough planner is expected to testify. The public will also be able to comment.

Fall Detected
Cyclist 'might not be alive today' if not for Apple Watch calling emergency services
Another Apple Watch potentially saved another life.

British man Jay Dixon was wearing an Apple Watch when he was knocked off his bicycle by a car.
The man's Apple Watch immediately called emergency services.
British man Jay Dixon says that he might not be alive today if his Apple Watch hadn't called emergency services after he was knocked off his bicycle by a car.
Local reports say that the Cleethorpes man was riding when "a car drove straight into him, catapulting him into the air." After he hit the floor the man's Apple Watch called emergency services as well as his partner.
Source: Jay Dixon
"I kept trying to get up, but I just couldn't manage it, I was incredibly lucky. If I'd have collided with the car a few more inches to the right I think I would be dead."
He said: "When I fell, my watch sent out an emergency signal to the emergency services and my partner.
"It had detected I'd taken a fall and sent my exact location to both parties. It tells you exactly what's happened and my partner was there within 15 minutes."
Apple Watches, including the new Apple Watch Series 7, detect when a wearer has fallen and doesn't move for a minute, the call to emergency services is initiated and location data is transmitted to dispatchers. It's a feature that has been shown to save lives countless times and Apple is reportedly looking to expand it to car crashes, too.
Fall detection is one of the best Apple Watch features that a ton of people forget exists but could come in more than handy at some point. Thankfully this instance left Dixon with "mainly cuts and bruises" and nothing more serious.

This is the 30th post I have written since moving my blog to wordpress on June 3. So it may come as a surprise to some of you when I say that I am frustrated that I haven't been writing. There are a few of you who will know what I mean. There is blogging and there is writing and they are not the same thing. I mean no disrespect to the many talented bloggers that I read regularly, so perhaps I need to clarify that statement. The difference, for me, is the difference between writing for publication and writing for any other purpose. Perhaps I need to clarify that statement as well. One of my favorite quotes about writing comes from T. M. McNally, who wrote, "When you die, I believe, God isn't going to ask you what you published. God's going to ask you what you wrote." And I really do believe that, but with all due respect to the Almighty, God may read my unpublished manuscripts, but the ladies in the Hungry Readers Book Club won't read my books unless they're published.
As a writer, I think it is important to establish a writing routine that works for you. So what is my writing routine? What are the elements that tell me that I'm writing something that may be worthy of being my next book.
1. I do my best writing at 5:30 in the morning. If I'm not writing fiction at 5:30 in the morning, I'm not really writing.
2. If I'm sleeping well, I'm not writing well. When I'm writing well, I sleep poorly, waking up at 2:00 a.m. my head stuffed with dialogue for the next chapter.
3. If I'm writing well, I'm not paying enough attention to real life events. I am somewhere else, in a fictional town, interacting with fictional characters.
4. If I'm writing well, I will interrupt whatever I am doing to sit down at the computer and write.
So I am very pleased, and more than little bit excited to realize that I have been up before the alarm every day this week, on the computer writing fiction at 5:30 in the morning, even this morning, Saturday morning, nearly 10,000 words this week about a guy who's life is about to spin out of control.
Three dead bodies and we still haven't gotten to the bad stuff.
Life is good here. I hope it is where you are too.

Baghdad Radio: Saddam orders troops out of Kuwait
By DENHOLM BARNETSON, United Press International
Iraqi President Saddam Hussein Monday ordered his troops to withdraw from Kuwait, Baghdad Radio said, as allied forces sliced through occupied territory in what one U.S. general said was a ''tremendous success'' even in their first brushes with the elite Republican Guard.
Earlier Monday, Iraq launched a Scud missile, killing 12 Americans in Saudi Arabia.
Iraq said the decision to pull out from Kuwait was made by on the basis of the Soviet-brokered peace plan to end the gulf war and United Nations Resolution 660 that calls for an unconditional withdrawal.
In Washington, White House spokesman Marlin Fitzwater said the United States had not been contacted about any Iraqi withdrawal.
''There is nothing to respond to,'' Fitzwater said. ''The war goes on.''
Fitzwater said later that Iraqi soldiers should give up their arms. ''We will not attack unarmed soldiers retreating,'' he said.
The presidential spokesman added another condition to end the gulf war -- that Saddam personally announce the withdrawal and accept all U.N. resolutions.
The report on Baghdad Radio said: ''Orders have been issued to our armed forces to withdraw in an organized manner to the positions they held prior to 1 August 1990. This is regarded as a practical compliance with Resolution 660. The spokesman emphasized that our armed forces, which have proven their ability to fight and stand fast, will confront any attempt to harm it while it is carrying out the withdrawal order.''
As Kuwaitis marked the 30th anniversary of independence from Britain, an allied military leader indicated that fighting to liberate Kuwait City had begun and that coalition forces were finally meeting slightly stronger resistance.
Allied casualties remained light on the battlefield and there was no word on enemy dead and wounded. Coalition officials reported taking more than 20,000 Iraqi prisoners of war. Military police were rushed to front to take care of them so as not to saddle combat troops ''with babysitting POWs.''
But while the battlefront was going very well for the allied troops, Iraq showed it still was dangerous, launching a Scud missile attack at Dhahran, Saudi Arabia. The debris hit a building housing American military personnel.
U.S. military officials said 12 servicemen were killed in the attack, 25 injured and 40 others still unaccounted for.
The Scud was intercepted in the air by a Patriot missile but debris fell, causing the destruction of the housing facility. A worker in a local hospital said at least 50 were injured.
The attack was by far the worst launched by Iraq since the war began. And it came in stark contrast to the allied success on the battlefront.
About 80 Republican Guard tanks, which had spent the first five weeks of the war holed up in southeastern Iraq, began moving south toward advancing coalition forces, according to pilots returning from combat missions.
''They're finally flushing,'' said Col. Steve Turner, 41, of Portsmouth, Va., who commands a squadron of fighter-bombers at the largest U.S. air base in Saudi Arabia. ''They've got to do something -- either that, or get killed in their holes. This is the group we've been beating on for the last couple of weeks, and they finally started moving.''
Marine Corps Brig. Gen. Richard I. Neal of the Central Command said in Riyadh that allied units have encountered ''some'' Republican Guard forces, the group considered Saddam's best troops. Where they have been engaged, he said, ''They're being beaten.''
A senior Pentagon official, however, said the allied forces have not faced the bulk of the Republican Guard and probably would not do so for at least another day.
Neal said U.S. combat casualties included four killed and 21 wounded. Lt. Gen. Khalid bin Sultan, commander of the Joint Arab Forces in the alliance, said five Arab troops had been killed and 20 had been wounded. Britain reported no casualties and there were no details of casualties to forces of other nations in the coalition.
Neal said 270 Iraqi tanks have been destroyed since allied forces charged into Iraq and occupied Kuwait Sunday morning, including 35 of the top-line Iraqi tank, the Soviet T-72. Counting the number of tanks allies believe were wiped before the ground campaign, the number of disabled tanks could be half Saddam's force.
''We are continuing to attack and continue to achieve tremendous success against Iraqi forces,'' Neal said, while Iraq's resistance has been ''light to moderate.''
According to allied military officials on the battlefield, U.S. Marines dug in just west of Kuwait City. One senior military source said some troops had entered the capital city late Sunday, but did not say how many.
Khalid indicated that fighting to retake the capital had started. Asked if there was combat in Kuwait City, he hesitated, smiled and said, ''There is combat going on everywhere in the theater of operations.'' Asked how soon the city would be liberated, he replied, ''We will be there soon, very soon.''
While military authorities would not specify troop movements, reports from the front said the VIIth Corps, composed of at least three divisions, heavy with tanks and accompanied by British armored units, moved north into Iraq to cut off the Republican Guards along the Kuwait-Iraq border.
To their west, French armored units drove north, apparently to prevent any support from Baghdad. The 101st Airborne Division flew deep into Iraq to establish a huge helicopter refueling position, presumably to refuel helicopters that would be used to attack Republican Guard tanks.
In Kuwait, 17,000 Marines sat offshore waiting for a possible amphibious landing. Marine divisions were heading toward Kuwait City, one from the southwest and another from the south up the coast. Saudi and other gulf troops advanced ahead of the 2nd Marines.
''Terrorism continues as the only Iraqi success to report to date,'' Neal said. ''Reports of atrocities of the worst sort (against civilians in Kuwait) are continuing to come in.'' But he said the allies did not plan to accelerate their move to liberate Kuwait, saying that could cause unnecessary casualties.
He said at least 517 Kuwaiti oil wells had now been set ablaze by Iraq forces, and many other ''facilities'' in Kuwait City itself ''are being systematically destroyed.''
Khalid said Iraqi forces in Kuwait City have continued to execute, rape and mutilate Kuwaiti citizens and have even forced young conscripts to kill Kuwaitis their own ages. He provided no further details.
The Arab commander warned that those responsible for such atrocities would face justice. Asked if that meant the allied planned to fight until they captured Saddam, he said, ''No, sir, Saddam Hussein -- his own people, his own nation can deal with him.''
Four U.S. warplanes were downed, and three of the five pilots have been rescued, Neal said.
At least two more Iraqi airplanes took off and made it safely to Iran, bringing the number to about 150 planes grounded there.
Allied air strikes in support of the ground fighting included 1,300 combat sorties in the Kuwait area in the previous 24 hours, among more than 3,000 missions for the period overall.
American women helicopter pilots flew into combat areas, flying supplies and soldiers of the 101st Airborne Division to a position more than 50 miles inside Iraq. Officials cited in a pool report said the operation encountered only minimal fire. There are 22 women helicopter pilots in the division but it was unknown how many took part in supporting the operation with CH-47 Chinook helicopters.
Iraq launched two Chinese-made Silkworm missiles at the British warship HMS Gloucester in the northern Persian Gulf, British military officials said.
One Silkworm fell harmlessly into the water and the second was destroyed by one of two Sea Dart missiles fired by the Gloucester, exploding 30 seconds before it would have hit the vessel. U.S. Navy attack jets later destroyed the launch site.
French news reports said French Foreign Legion units penetrated as far as 100 miles inside southern Iraq in the allied bid to encircle Iraqi troops and sever vital communications and supply lines between Baghdad and Kuwait. They also had captured 3,000 enemy prisoners, the reports said.
Iraq contended it had foiled the allied land assault in eight hours of fighting. ''With God's help, we have managed to expel the enemy from all the positions he took during the first hours of the attack,'' Baghdad Radio said, quoting a military spokesman. ''The enemy troops fled, leaving behind their tanks.''
The Iraqi News Agency quoted a military spokesman as saying that Iraqi ''Al Hussein'' missiles -- Scuds -- hit the Saudi capital Riyadh and ''King Fahd's Military Base,'' as well as the Dimona plant in Israel's Negev desert.
President Bush was briefed by his top military men and warned about declaring victory too soon.
''We must guard against euphoria,'' he said, ''There are battles yet to come and casualties to be borne, but make no mistake: Kuwait will soon be free and the men and women in uniform will return home to the thanks and respect of a grateful nation.''
Air assaults continued, naval forces gave gunfire support, and aircraft carriers and mine sweepers were brought into action.
In the Persian Gulf, helicopters made reconnaissance runs on the beach and reported Iraqi troops staying put, apparently as a hedge against a landing, rather than moving out to reach approaching Marine forces on land.
Besides the United States, joining the assault were forces from Great Britain, France, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia, Egypt, the United Arab Emirates, Bahrain, Qatar, Oman and Syria. U.S. officials refused to say how many of the more than 700,000 allied troops took part in the drive.
Neal said the Iraqi military had seen ''only a small portion of our total combat power. There is much more to come.''
Saddam Hussein finally activated his crack Republican Guard Monday, sending tanks rumbling from their lair in southeastern Iraq to meet allied forces driving deep into enemy territory, and U.S. forces closed in on Kuwait City on the second day the massive air-sea-ground campaign.
As Kuwaitis marked the 30th anniversary of independence from Britain, the commander of the Arab allied forces indicated that fighting to liberate the Kuwaiti capital had begun and that coalition forces were engaging better trained Iraqi troops.
Allied casualties remained light and there was no word on enemy dead and wounded, although the coalition reported taking about 20,000 Iraqi prisoners of war, and a Saudi commander asserted that many enemy soldiers ''will not be fighting another day.''

It is time for another installment in my ongoing Cover-It Concealer Review Series. Yes, I am a tad concealer-obsessed. But, such is the case for any girl with super dark circles! I am on a life-long mission for the "perfect" concealer!
Now this is a fun and unique way to package a concealer! This No-Show Concealer by Pop Beauty is packaged as a dual ended concealer and highlighter. As a huge fan of both concealers and highlighters. So, I was excited to test this puppy out!
Why am I looking for a good concealer?
Well, primarily because I am plagued with very dark under-eye circles. In addition to needing a pretty heavy-duty concealer for my dark circles, I also need a good light-medium coverage concealer for redness around my nose area and on my chin.
Basically all of the causes/reasons for Dark Under Eye Circles apply to me. I have allergies; therefore, I am plagued with redness and slight puffiness in the eye area. My allergies are not just seasonal, but year-round. So, I struggle with this throughout the year. Also, my dark under eye circles just seem to be hereditary. So, in addition to the redness and puffiness, I have those dark purplish dark circles. Plus I never seem to get enough sleep!
What would I do without concealer!!! I am always excited to try out something new. Are you curious as to how I liked Pop Beauty's No-Show Concealer Duo? If so, please keep reading after the jump!
This dual ended product houses a stick style concealer as well as a liquid skin-toned "highlighter". I tested this in the shade "One". The tube itself is nicely portable considering it is a 2-in-1 product. This product would easily fit in your purse or travel bag. Retails for about $24.00.
The Concealer: The concealer end of the product houses a stick-style retractable concealer. This can be used for an under-eye concealer (see application tips in the "consistency" area below) or as a face concealer. For under eye application, I recommend using a concealer brush. For face application, I apply with the stick and then blend out with clean fingers.
Coverage: Overall, I am quite pleased with the coverage I get from this concealer. Honestly, it covered even better than I expected! I would describe the coverage as medium. I was able to "build up" and layer the product to medium-heavy coverage on my very dark inner corner eye circles.
Consistancy: The consistency is somewhat dry. I do wish that it had a slightly more moisturizing feel. You must moisturize your eye area very well before application (tip: allow moisturizer to "sink in" a few minutes before applying concealer). Also, use of an under eye primer (like MAC's Vibrancy Eye Primer or Perfekt's Eye Perfection) after eye cream is recommended if have any fine lines or dryness or if you just want a super-smooth finish. I find that when my eye area is moisturized and primed well, that this product works very well!
Shade: At first glance, I thought that this concealer would be way too dark and too yellow for my skin tone (I typically wear either MAC's Studio Fix in NW15 or NARS Sheer glow in Siberia). But, when applied to the under eye area, it blends in great and works well! I do wish that had more shade selection though.
Wear: This product wears all day with no need for touch ups. Note: My skin is normal-dry. Generally I do not have trouble with products fading or sliding off.
The Highlighter: "No-Show Concealer Liquid"
What about the other end? According to the packaging, the highlighter end is actually a "No-Show Concealer Liquid". They describe it as an illuminating skin tone liquid.
At first glance, it is so shimmery (almost metallic) that I couldn't imagine using this as a straight-up concealer. But, when layered sparingly with the stick side of the No-Show Concealer, it really works well! It is also lovely as a highlighter! The shade is a beautiful champagne-gold buttery tone.
Packaging it as a dual ended product with a stick concealer is brilliant! I often find myself wanting to highlight the inner corners of my eyes after concealer application. So, it is so convenient to have the highlighter right on the other end of the concealer. POP Beauty is on to something with this dual-ended product!
Eyes: After applying the stick-side concealer, I tap a VERY small amount in the inner corners of both eyes with the applicator wand. I just barely touch the wand to my skin. Then I use my concealer brush to very lightly blend (but using a patting/tapping motion) the highlighting liquid to the whole inner corner area (working up to the inner corner of my eyelid as well).
Face: For the face, I like to apply this where I would normally place any highlighter: the tops of cheekbones, down center of nose, above brows, and on chin. Primarily I use this as a cheekbone highlighter. Just dab 2 small dots on the very top of each cheekbone with the applicator and then blend out with your fingers. Sometimes I do one dot above each brow, one dot on nose, and one dot on the chin and blend those out as well. It gives a lovely, natural, and subtle glow. So pretty!
When applied carefully, this concealer gives great coverage and wears very well! I love it for both under the eyes (when the eye area is well moisturized and primed) and for targeted areas of the face (like around the nose area and chin).
The stick-style concealer end is great on its own. But, it is even better when layered with the highlighter end! The highlighter works beautifully when paired with the concealer to brighten and wake up the inner corners of the eye. Also, the highlighter is great for the top of the cheekbones! I am so glad that I tried this product.
I would love to hear what concealers you ladies are liking lately! You know me, I am always looking for great new products to try!
I'm a little concealer obsessed as well! I've never heard of Pop Beauty before, now I want to try it!!
@Kim's Vanity-Hey Kim!!! :) You would love Pop Beauty...such a fun brand! Not sure if it is available in Canada where you are, but you can get it online for sure. They have fun palettes too!
