This will work fine for a KDE environment where we know that the file dialog correctly handles the overwrite use case. Do we know that the GTK file dialog does the same for when Kate is run on GNOME, XFCE, or MATE?
I believe it will be fine. https://developer.gnome.org/gtk3/stable/GtkFileChooserDialog.html GtkFileChooserDialog has a gtk_file_chooser_set_do_overwrite_confirmation (since 2005's gtk 2.8) so I would expect QFileDialog to use this feature.
So given GNOME, XFCE and MATE uses gtk >= 2.8, I don't foresee an issue on those DE.
Also bug https://bugreports.qt.io/browse/QTBUG-11539 mentions it works under GNOME at least.
On the QFileDialog side, I wish it would be better documented : https://doc.qt.io/archives/qt-4.8/qfiledialog.html#details mentioned GNOME and KDE but not anymore in qt5 stable documentation https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qfiledialog.html#details
I think this is fine then, please remove the decl. of bool KTextEditor::DocumentPrivate::checkOverwrite(QUrl u, QWidget *parent), too and push this, thanks!
Good part is that the overwrite check dialog will now be a native one analog to other apps instead of a KMessageBox, providing consistency outside of KDE.

Adam "Pacman" Jones is coming to Dallas. Not to the Cowboys -- not yet, anyway. But he will be on our radio airwaves, like, pretty pronto. Insider know-it-alls are telling me this morning that Jones will be in town tonight for dinner, and tomorrow he'll take a three-hour seat at ESPN 103.3 FM, as co-host of the 11 a.m.-2 p.m. Michael Irvin Show. Which means a couple things: Business here should be booming, and we'll know tomorrow if Jones is serious about wanting to be traded to the Cowboys.
Short version: Jones is a thug with a rap sheet longer than, well, Irvin's. The sixth overall pick in the 2005 NFL Draft by the Tennessee Titans, Jones is currently suspended for his alleged role in a Las Vegas strip-club triple-shooting melee during NBA All-Star Weekend in 2007. Jones made it "rain," and a club manager wound up paralyzed.
NFL Commish Roger Goodell seems in no hurry to reinstate Jones, hinting that the decision won't be made before the start of training camps in July. The Cowboys need a cornerback/kick returner, especially a 24-year-old one that would cost them only a late first-round pick. And we know owner Jerry Jones isn't exactly afraid of snakes (Terrell Owens, Tank Johnson, et al.). In that vein, Pacman as a Cowboy actually makes sense. As does his unofficial intro to Dallas occurring on the same station that employs Irvin, Nate Newton and, potentially, Greg Williams. --Richie Whitt

Slideshow of the polls on voting day
Thank you for the many months of support – knocking on doors, donations, sign holding, phone calls, and the personal well wishes. On election day, we did not get the votes that we expected, but I can say that we gave it our all!
My mind keeps going back to Monday evening as our team headed out to post signage at the district's many polling sites. I still connect to that feeling of excitement and anticipation for the day to come – that the candidates had each given their best; that over these past nine months, we had collectively touched thousands of residents, business owners, and organizations to hear from them what is most concerning, and to hear, too, what is actually working in this amazing city we all call home. In this time of such national political turmoil, the local democratic process still reigns and the election process allows for such rich dialogue and debate; it underscores everyone's right to be heard (both in voice and in action).
I commend my fellow District 8 candidates, Kenzie Bok, Montez Haywood, Jennifer Nassour, and Hélène Vincent, for a collegial race. Congratulations to both Kenzie and Jennifer for capturing the top two slots to go on to the general election. The many panel forums and community events placed a spotlight on the issues that concern us all as residents of District 8 and the city at large. It brought awareness and solution-based thinking to the topics. I wish both Kenzie and Jennifer the best of luck in the weeks ahead as they continue this critical dialogue.
To the countless numbers of volunteers, supporters, and interested parties, I appreciate you taking the time to spread out across the district to knock on doors. Thank you to those who opened your doors to us to engage in community dialogue. It is those encounters that have made this race so worthwhile. I will carry your ideas, your concerns, and recommendations with me as I continue to work to address the issues that motivated me to seek the City Council seat over two years ago.
I've always said that I ran for office not for politics but for community. While the District 8 race may have come to a close for this campaign, I do know that I will continue to organize and advocate for those issues I am most passionate about —
- Bringing more of the community's voice and concerns into the city's development process by advocating for separate city planning and development agencies. We all deserve a democratic process with transparency and accountability!
- Working on solutions for housing affordability, including helping our older residents stay in the city they love. We need to plan for aging in community!
- Encouraging and welcoming more voices into the city's political process through increasing civic engagement – with the goal of more awareness, advocacy, and higher voter turnout!
This has been one of the richest, most rewarding experiences of my life, and I thank each one of you who has added to that experience and helped propel me through the race. I look forward to continuing our partnership – please reach out to me if you'd like to stay connected and perhaps get more involved in the issues noted above. We'll keep the campaign email open to keep the communications flowing.
Thank you for your amazing and sustained support over this past year. You helped keep me motivated each and every day.
I look forward to seeing you soon out in the neighborhood!

Short abstract:
This panel connects tourism, travel and migration by examining affluence and lifestyle migrants. We explore causal links, motivations, and mobility experiences and frame these in the context of broader debates around nation and place. This can include reflections on the ethnography of mobility.
Long abstract:
New, flexible forms of mobility that connect and blur the distinction between tourism and migration intimate profound methodological and conceptual issues for anthropology. Here we are thinking about, for examples, North Europeans (British, Swedish, Norwegian, German) moving South; French buying second homes in Morocco, US citizens retiring to Mexico, or even students on a gap year. Affluent migrants migrate, oscillate, circulate or tour between their home and host countries in search of something encapsulated in the notion of the rural idyll or signified in the distinction between tourism and travel. Some retain a home in more than one place, some work in one place and live in another; others simply move, while others still simply visit. Their motivations are often anti-urban or anti-modern. They illustrate new trends, each with its own unique set of historical precedents and objective conditions, but are they a continuum of old themes, of the Grand Tour, colonialism and empire, travel and escape? Is their migration best explained through their individual motivations or through the conceptual lens of globalisation, world systems, transnationalism and diaspora, or even liquid/fluid modernity? What are the impacts for geographical and border spaces, and for host and home communities? We are seeking substantive papers that connect tourism, travel and migration, and that examine causal links, objective conditions, motivations, and/or mobility experiences and frame these in the context of broader debates around nation and place. We also welcome methodological reflections on the ethnography of mobility.

While condoms are the best contraceptive against pregnancy, STDs/STIs, the 98% success rate would not be possible, if you are not wearing the condom right. Follow the steps below to ensure that you are having safe intercourse!
1. Checking the expiration date:
You may have the question, why? It is just rubber. What does it have to do with the expiration dates? Well, unfortunately, it does. It is because of the lubrication used in the condoms for smooth and soft intercourse. For pain-free and smooth intercourse always buy lubes. Even the best quality condoms when kept unused for a very long time, the latex condom might get damaged. Which will result in breakage of condoms during the intercourse Also, the male condoms should be stored in a hygienic, cool and dry place. It should be exposed to sunlight. So, ensure that the store you buy from has stored the condoms properly. Else it might result in the broken condom scenario. That is why most people prefer to buy condoms online India In shycart, we have products only from the best condom brand and we store these male condoms as per the advisory was given by the manufacturers.
In the unlikely case, your condom broke, you can read about how to handle condom tear in our blog.
2. Opening the condom:
This may sound very simple. But, this is where you have to be very careful. As per a study, 19% of the condom breakage happened because of the incorrect opening. So, we understand you both would be in a lot of hurry. However, you should do this and all the upcoming steps slowly and steadily.
All the best condoms from the best condom brand will have an option to tear the condom sachet with hands. So, instead of using your teeth or scissors or any sharp object, gently use your hand to tear the pack open and take out the condom.
3. Wearing the condom:
Once you have taken the condom out, ensure that it is neat and ready to be rolled on your penis. The rim of the male condom should be on the outside. It should resemble like a hat. A miniature hat. Now, place it on your penis and slowly – slowly – roll it. In the midway, if it feels like it is not straight or it hasn't placed itself right and gives you uncomfortable feeling, gently unroll it to the tip of you penis and make the adjustments. Then roll it again.
Ensure that you have not put it inside out. The lubrication on the condom should be on the outside. In the unlikely you have indeed worn it inside out, dont unroll and use it again. Go for a new condom. It is advisable that you do it this way.
4. The position the tip:
All the condoms will be teat ended. Ensure that you dont wear it all way to the teat end. Leave a gap and make sure that teat stays that way.
5. Lubrication:
If you are planning on using any lubes, this is the time you put it on. Just squeeze a little in your hand and spread it all over your penis. It is important that the top half of your penis is well covered in lube.
6. The session:
Do your thing. It's time. Enjoy your lovemaking session.
7. Removing the condom:
Now, after the lovemaking, once you had ejaculated, you should remove the condom immediately. Else, the semen may come out of the condom and may enter her. So, once you are done, hold the rim with your hand and gently pull your penis out of your partner's body. Be sure to have pulled out before your penis goes soft. Otherwise, the condom may get loose and would let the semen out. Once you are out, remove the condom by holding the teat end in one hand and rim in the other.
8. Disposing of the used condom:
Once you had removed the condom, you should dispose it off carefully. Hold the condom by its rim and throw it away in the garbage. You may want to roll it with a piece of paper or a plastic pouch beforehand. Else it may leak everywhere. If you had bought the best condom from Skore Champion series, you would have gotten a disposable bag for each condom and hence you need to have worry about the disposal. Just put the used condom in the pouch and throw it away.
If you had lost erection or if you are going to have sex again you should use a new condom.
Have safe sex! Stay healthy!

Memorial services were being held Monday morning for Los Angeles Police Department Officer Juan Diaz, who was fatally shot near a taco stand in Lincoln Heights late last month.
The services were taking place at Cathedral of Our Lady of the Angels in downtown Los Angeles beginning at 9 a.m.
Diaz, 24, was off-duty when he was gunned down by Cristian Adrian Facundo near Avenue 26 and Humboldt Street on July 27, according to the department.
Facundo, 20, was charged with murder last week.
Los Angeles Archbishop Jose Gomez presided over Monday's services, leading a bilingual mass where several of Diaz's relatives and loves ones were seen wearing all white as they sat in the front pews of the cathedral.
Three officers in full uniform and three other pallbearers carried Diaz's casket into the the cathedral as the memorial began.
Just before the fatal shooting weeks earlier, Facundo had been spray-painting gang-related markings on a sidewalk when Diaz and a friend "kinda questioned why" he was doing that and asked him to stop, LAPD Captain William Hayes said last week.
Hayes said Facundo then approached the group and pulled up his shirt to show a handgun concealed in his waistband. He then allegedly walked away and the group tried leaving.
But, according to police, Facundo and Francisco Talamantes, 23, ran up to the side of the truck Diaz and his friends were in just as they started driving away and started shooting — killing Diaz and severely wounding another passenger in the back seat.
One of the clergy members who spoke before mourners Monday said Diaz died trying to fix "something that was not right."
"He tried to correct it. I guess you can call it — an instinct of an officer off-duty. I call it an instinct of a soul who used his God-given freedom and free will for the good of others and the beauty of his surroundings," he said.
"Instead of accepting the guidance of a good soul, those individuals chose to use their God-given freedom to kill him and to destroy," he added.
Also at the service were Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti, LAPD Chief Michel Moore and several other elected officials and law enforcement officers, including former police academy classmates of Diaz.
"Juan Diaz didn't just do what was right some of the time, he did what was right all of the time," Garcetti said.
"This is a reminder to each one of us that this boy from Northeast Los Angeles, this son of immigrants from Mexico … that he stood up and that we should stand up for what is right in this city every single day," the mayor said.
LAPD officials have said a third suspect, 18-year-old Ashlynn Smith, has been charged with accessory to murder. Authorities said the suspects also fired at two other individuals that same night but no one was wounded in that second incident.

On Saturday night, Orange County SC defeated rivals LA Galaxy II in their first 405 derby meeting of the 2018 season by a scoreline of 3-0. Of course, with a great result, came many positives.
From the Orange County perspective, here are some favorable takeaways.
Extend Another Week Atop USL Western Conference Standings
It's five games into the season for Orange County SC, and they're letting it be known around the league that they are in fact a power house this year. A win over the Galaxy put them at a record of three wins, one loss, and one tie, which is a favorable position in the standings, first place with ten points.
However, with a team like Sacramento Republic FC also in the quest for first, have one less game played than Orange County, and the same amount of points. A team that gave Orange County their only loss of the season so far, but for now, Orange County SC remain at the top of the standings until and/or if Sacramento take advantage of that extra game.
Goals Scored, and Goals Allowed
It's hard not to give Orange County the credit that they deserve, scoring nine goals with zero allowed in their last three games. Some might say they haven't faced the toughest competition, but there's no denying the fact that they are taking care of business, and that is what matters most, winning games that are expected, and earning points.
In total, Orange County SC have scored ten goals, and have only allowed two. That's currently the largest goal differential of any team in the Western Conference.
Notably, Orange County's goals have come from six different players. Three whom are forwards, two midfielders, and one defender. Not that it matters at the end of the day, but one can say that goals coming from all over the field from players at different positions makes them not to heavily reliant on one player, which is a good thing I would say, and instead have multiple threats.
Both offensively, and defensively, the team seems to be responding well to coach Braeden Cloutier.
Competition On The Road
Now that Orange County took care of business at home this past weekend, it's time to hit the road.
Orange County have yet to lose an away game this season, having beaten both Oklahoma City Energy FC and Tulsa Roughnecks FC.
Orange County will be traveling to Texas for Saturday's match vs. San Antonio FC April 14 at 5:30 pm.
San Antonio, an opponent who's known for playing good at home, should be a good test for Orange County, despite a steady start from the Texas club in 2018, so I'm expecting nothing less than a close game. Stay tuned.

"We appreciated Tim's hard work. We had 2 different real estate companies prior to meeting you, over the time of a couple years they each brought us 1 prospective buyer. You in turn brought us numerous prospective buyers along with several offers, with a final close in under 2 years. We feel that you had a knowledge of where and how to market our business so it was marketed in the right places and to the right people. As you well know when the sale was finalized it was at our asking price with little or no haggling.
We appreciate the fact that you were available 7 days a week, and willing to show the business even on a Sunday with very little notice. Tim Thank you once again.
~ Pat and Jody Schatz
"We were referred to Jason a few years ago. We were looking for our dream rural property, however, competition was high and inventory was low. Jason found us a great starter home until the right property came along. He continued to keep looking for us; one day we received a phone call that he "thinks he found the one." We drove out to that day, and we immediately knew Jason was right ~ This was the dream property we had been waiting for! Jason stayed on top of every detail, and we can't thank him enough for listening to all of our needs and wants and finding the perfect property for our family. His attention to detail, care for his customers, integrity, understanding of the market, and work ethic shined every step of the way!"

I am quietly observing that scientific literature followed by the mass media have slowly left using the term 'international' and substituting it with 'global'. The substitution is motivated by the fact that we live in an ever-increasingly interconnected world where nationality becomes less of an issue, or made to be, when it comes to collectively moving to a mutual objective.
Global modernisation, if you will.
Within that framework lies global hand washing day, global effort to eradicate poverty, global awareness of digital and educational divide.
When it comes to the betterment of people's welfare, particularly those marginalised (e.g. third world countries, the poor in third world countries, the laggards, those still suffering from marasmus even when most of the world has been using the internet for 10 years), I think the demise of a nation-state is indeed justifiable.
But when it comes to national integration and moving towards a national goal (orang kaya mbok ya sedekah ya), then the irrational fraternity to help our kind is also needed.
And the list goes on to more micro aspects. Religion, ethnicity, neighbourhood.
If the purpose is to help people, does it even matter?
It's not the exclusivity, it's the aspect that needs emphasising to motivate the goodness in all of us. The question is: how do we do this without exploiting or promoting ethnocentrism?

AHHAA's new exhibition has two parts
- First: the exhibits that we've always wanted to bring to AHHAA, to show how electricity functions, how it makes the machines work and what to do with it anyway. Find out how really big machines, such as CERN's Large Hadron Collider work. You can also spin on the life-size hamster wheel and human gyroscope and observe the magnetical figures. Even the youngest science fans will have lots of fun!
- Second: you'll find out what the scientists do at CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research. By the way, next spring Estonia will be a member of CERN as well, so it's the perfect time to visit AHHAA and find out more about particle physics, a science discipline with an amusing name.
Particle physics studies the smallest bits of the Universe (but in the same time, it often involves the greatest energies of the Universe!) Particle physics has changed the world a lot, but it usually takes years (even decades) until a groundbreaking scientific advice makes its way to our everyday lives. For example, the Internet was invented in CERN. The gamma radiation, which is now used in brain scanning technologies, was discovered there. And the touch screens invented in 1970s for operating experimental machinery, have now been transformed into smartphones! Let's see how the newly discovered Higgs Boson will be incorporated to our lives!
Entrance to the exhibition with the science centre ticket
"Aha, The Core of Science!" is open until 22 March 2020

Aggiornamenti normativi di settore
EU: New toy guidance document on soother holders published
October 2019 - Relevant for: Toys and children's products
The new guidance document No. 191 for soother holders was published by the European Commission (EC) on 26 September 2019. It helps differentiating between toy and non-toy soother holders by providing indicative criteria with various examples.
Being commonly used for newborns, infants and toddlers, many soother holders are designed in such a way that they also have a play value. Instead of falling into the scope of the General Product Safety Directive (GPSD), such soother holders are within the scope of the Toy Safety Directive (TSD) as they are considered as "soother holders and toys at the same time".
Safety standard EN 125862 defines soother holder as "article that enables a soother to be secured to a child's garment etc.". Besides child's garment, there are also soother holders that are intended to be fastened to other objects such as cloths and plush toys. Soother holders that are also classified as toys have to fulfil the requirements of the TSD and comply with the toy standard EN 71 series. Both toy and non-toy soother holders must be safe for children from the first month of life ("0 M+").

Joshua Mohr: Rising author returns with 'Damascus'
"I'm not going to lobotomize my book for your audience," Joshua Mohr said to Random House. "Sorry."
Tough words for an author to say to any publisher, let alone a major house, and especially for a first book. "Some Things That Meant the World to Me" was published instead by Two Dollar Radio and went on to be one of O, the Oprah Magazine's 10 Terrific Reads of 2009. Mohr followed up with last year's "Termite Parade," a New York Times Book Review Editor's Choice. With the release of his third book, "Damascus," Mohr continues his impressive trajectory of artistic integrity with an ambitious story of self-pity and redemption, the Iraq war, cancer, addiction and the purpose of art.
At once gripping, lucid and fierce, "Damascus" is the mature effort of an artist devoted to personal growth and as such contains the glints of real gold perhaps too valuable for a major house to know what to do with. (Two Dollar Radio is the proud publisher of all three books.)
Mohr will celebrate the release of "Damascus" tonight at City Lights (7 p.m. Free. 261 Columbus Ave., S.F. www.citylights.com) and Monday at the Booksmith (7:30 p.m. Free. 1644 Haight St., S.F. www.booksmith.com).
In a remarkable instance of ingenuity, Ian Tuttle began writing restaurant reviews that forsake the quality of food, price points and other traditional metrics by which we judge our eating haunts. Instead, under the moniker StretchyHead, Tuttle writes fictional stories that capture what it feels like to eat in them.
"Reviews are plentiful," he says. "Menus are online. But there is more to dining out than what arrives on a plate. We choose our places for feeling and mood, memories and hopes."
Inspired by the real places in which they are set, StretchyHead's stories say more about these restaurants - and what we are really looking for when we enter them - than any number of Yelp reviews can.
Tuttle's "StretchyHead" is the first publication of Portuguese Artists Colony Books, from Portuguese Artists Colony, the self-proclaimed "collection of untrustworthy characters who gather at Fivepoints Arthouse weekly to engage in the disreputable act of writing." "StretchyHead" features 24 of the 60 stories he wrote over a two-year period. Friday's release party will feature live music and drinks (8 p.m. $12, includes book. Fivepoints Arthouse, 72 Tehama St., S.F. www.stretchyhead.com).
All awaiting the English translation of Haruki Murakami's "1Q84" can head to Green Apple Books (506 Clement St., S.F.) on Monday for a special midnight sale that will include a taco truck on the premises, starting at 9:30 p.m. All who order the book by 11:59 p.m. Monday will receive a complimentary taco and beer. Even more outlandish? All pre-orders will be entered into a drawing for one of 10 autographed copies of the book. For more information, go to www.greenapplebooks.com.

Many folks connect work-related injuries with construction sites or factories, and while this might be true, there are other common work-related harms for office workers as well. http://painstopmd.com/dallas-dol-federal-workers-comp-doctor/
Whether you're standing, sitting, or lifting in daily life or your occupation, back injuries and muscle strains are substantially more common than many of us know. The common scenarios that cause these issues are overexertion (consistently lifting awkward and heavy things), prolonged sitting while working, frequent extending and stretching by reaching for things, and heavy lifting (including weight lifting).
No matter where you work, these kinds of injuries happen quite often. The common causes of slips, trips, and falls are: wet floors (inadequately marked), things on the floor or blocking walk ways, loose carpeting and rugs, extension cords and computer cords, and inadequate lighting. Make sure uneven and slippery areas are properly marked and items are safely put away.
One of the principal reasons for repetitive motion injuries is when a worker is constantly repeating the same actions in the same position, for example, the most common repetitive motion injury comes from prolonged keyboard use.
Businesses and companies should encourage and train their employees to take breaks, reduce frequency of activity, and provide proper equipment to help reduce some of the strain.
Injuries sustained from equipment and machinery are usually related to factories and building sites. All employees should be properly trained on how to use equipment and machinery correctly and understand the possible dangers connected with various types of equipment. As an example, one of the most common causes of workplace injuries related to machinery is wearing loose clothing, wearing jewelry, placing fingers in the wrong areas, lack of appropriate footwear, and unbound hair.
Whether you drive a transport truck, a FedEx van, a mail truck, or any other type of delivery vehicle, you are in danger of a motor vehicle accident every single work day. Prolonged driving hours can cause drivers to get tired while meeting delivery deadlines can cause pressure and tension that could impair a driver's judgement while on the road. Motorists should take regular rests and get appropriate rest on long trips.

In this week's roundup of news from the Americas region: RLH Corporation and Extended Stay America make CEO changes; a look at who is investing in the Caribbean; U.S. hotel performance growth downgraded for 2020; and more.
Hotel News Now each week features a news roundup from a different region of the world. Today's review covers the Americas.
RLHC, ESA make CEO changes
During the third quarter, RLH Corporation announced on its earnings call that Greg Mount, president and CEO, had resigned from his role, which he held since 2014, effective immediately. RLHC officials said shareholder frustration was tied to the resignation, reports Hotel News Now's Dana Miller.
"Acknowledging and sharing our shareholders' frustration regarding the lack of progress growing the core franchise business along with elevated franchise terminations and weak performance of owned hotels, the board understands the need for action to be taken," Bob Wolfe, chairman of the company's board of directors, said on the call. "That starts with a change in the company's leadership."
Shortly after that announcement, Extended Stay America replaced former ESA president and CEO Jonathan Halkyard with Bruce Haase as of 22 November.
In the release, Douglas Geoga, chairman of the company's board, said "over the past several years the Extended Stay Boards, together with our outside advisors, have carefully considered a wide range of transactional strategic alternatives to drive shareholder value. Through this process, which was only recently discontinued, the Boards determined that none of the terms upon which alternatives were available would provide an acceptable outcome, or superior value compared to improved execution of the Company's business strategy."
Caribbean investment supported by local capital
Although a majority of inbound travel to the Caribbean comes from the U.S., the same can't be said about where investment is coming from, writes HNN's Stephanie Ricca, which is mostly within the region.
"There's no shortage of liquidity in the region; it's just coming from local banks, local (pension funds) and high-net-worth individuals," said Nicholas Hecker, executive managing director and chief investment officer of Sculptor Real Estate. "There hasn't been a rush of liquidity from U.S. institutions into the region."
US hotel performance growth expected to dip below 1%
According to STR and Tourism Economics, growth projections for U.S. hotel revenue per available room have been downgraded to less than 1% for the remainder of 2019 and 2020, the news release states. (STR is the parent company of HNN.)
"U.S. hotels have posted nine straight years with RevPAR increases of basically 3% or higher, so growth levels below 1% will clearly represent the industry's worst years since the recession," Amanda Hite, STR's president, said in the release.
Deals, developments, people on the move
- Pebblebrook Hotel Trust closed on the sale of the 99-room Topaz Hotel in Washington, D.C., for $33.1 million.

I'm a sophomore in high school, and I joined band last year. I was in F.E. last year, and now I'm on the school's cymbal line for this upcoming.
I want to get your opinion on a few things...
1) Best way to practice cymbals at home? (implying you don't have cymbals at home)
2) Best way to practice in general? (For drumline in general, and my instructor has talked about keeping a journal and logging in information, and I don't really know what I'd write down in it.)
So, overall, a practice-related thread.
I wouldn't crash cymbals at home. I'd take them to a school yard and practice there.
I like the journal idea. I think I'll try that with my drum studies.
For the 1) I don't have much advice but.
2) keeping track is a great tool, my teacher told me to do so, if you would see my drumming books with all the annotation you would think Im crazy (mostly black dots, stars, almost everywhere lol)
Journalling works for some (it's a great method if it's for you), I don't bother because I know I'd do it for 3-4 days and stop, which is a motivation killer.
However, tracking progress is very important to learning. So if journalling isn't your thing, what you can do is everyday increase the speed of something you are practicing. It can be just at 1bpm, it doesn't matter. So this one thing I do on toms, every time I practice it (for about 10min), I increase the speed by 1. Since I started it at 110bpm, I know how far I've come.
Another thing, commit yourself to practicing a certain amount per week. Feel bad about not meeting that goal, because you've broken that commitment to yourself. Also, that number you set should give you an idea of how much improvement you can expect from yourself. If you set 5 hours per week, then you can expect to make steady but slower progress.
Final piece of advice, forget video games and tv, if I had spent the amount of time playing drums as I had with either of those, I'd be playing music professionally right now...

My ex-boyfriend was the worst narcissist I knew. I was sure glad I broke up with him. He
always made it a point that everyday should be about him. Every time that he
tried to do something for me, at the end, it was intended for his benefit.
I'm married to a narcissist and have 3 kids. I love him my kids love him . But he treats us like crap . I know in the long run it has to end . But what do I do now?
Single: Check.
Have read the best article on lovepanky: Check.
Listening to "Love Myself: by Hailee Steinfeld: Check
Hear hear, guys! I broke up with a guy who was the biggest narcissistic idiot that has ever walked on this planet. He was on the basketball team and every cheerleader was freaking over him. I was so tired of him watching himself in the mirror and flirting with everyone, because he was THE MOST HANDSOME GUY. Guess what, you freak, you're THE LONELIEST MOST STUPID GUY now!!!! Hahahaha
It's the breathing space you start to miss when you're in a relationship with a NPD. I definitely noticed my friends started becoming quieter and more reserved around me, which I couldn't for the life of me figure out why. Yeah, my guy was a diagnosed narcissist and I knew this up front, but it didn't really cause all that many problems for me on the surface. I really didn't mind all the cockiness and brashness that comes with it. Sure, the self centredness was a bit of an annoyance at times, but it was a part of his identity. When we ultimately split up, his choice to move on, my friends started coming back to me and opening back up. Don't be blind to the situation around you.
I was once in a relationship with a narcissist. It was one of the worst relationships that I have ever been in. When we first got together, I thought nothing of the fact that it took him over two hours to get ready. Yes, him. It takes me about 15 minutes if I put on fill make up. By the time he was ready, the party was already over or the restaurant was already closed. He also did things only for himself. Everything he did, he said was for me, but we would only do things that he liked to do or so he could see his friends. It was awful. I can absolutely relate to this article!

The Life And Times Of Moss Hart
From the Algonquin Round Table to the Gershwins and the Hollywood moguls, Moss Hart knew and delighted everybody. Vanity Fair has called him "one of American theater's greatest geniuses," the man responsible for such indelible successes as A Star Is Born, Camelot, and My Fair Lady. His rags-to-riches autobiography, Act One, became one of the most successful and beloved books ever published about the lure of the theater. But it ended at the beginningwhen Hart was only twenty-five. Now, at last, we have the whole and far richer story in this first full-scale biography of "the Prince of Broadway." Here Steven Bach explores the private Moss Hart, revealing his struggles with self-doubt, depression, and sexual identity, and the public one, recounting his creativity and charisma, his wit and grace. With thorough research and graceful prose, Steven Bach takes us on a journey to another time and place, where one man created a dazzling world for himself and for all American theatergoers.

Jbeil (Agenzia Fides) - The announced concert by Lebanese rock-band Mashrou 'Leila, scheduled for August 9th at the Byblos Festival, is raising controversies that also involve authoritative members of the local Churches, together with Christian organizations. The Lebanese media report that the cancellation of the concert was requested both by the bishopric of Jbeil (Arab name of Byblos) and by the Catholic Information Center. In the controversy, interventions by political groups such as the Lebanese Forces have also been recorded in the last few hours.
The Band has made itself known in recent years for the blasphemous content of its songs and for the controversies provoked on topics such as homosexuality and the coexistence among different religious identities. Attacks have multiplied on social media against the members of the band, accused of spreading texts against the Christian faith and also of inciting perversion and occultism. While on the other side other commentators and other acronyms, such as "Proud Lebanon" (an organization that wants to affirm the rights of LGBT groups in Lebanon), deplored the attacks and threats against Mashrou 'Leila as an expression of obscurantism aimed at hitting freedom of expression. Even Farès Souhaid, president of Rassemblement Saydet el-Jabal (a cultural association founded to promote a culture of coexistence between Christians and Muslims) has expressed via Twitter its support for the band and its freedom of expression. "Those who undermine the teachings of the Church" wrote Farés Souhaid among other things "are the criminals, the corrupt and those who rob the poor and undermine the values of the country. Boycott them, if you wish".
In the past, the alleged support of Mashrou'Leila in the battles of LGBT organizations has resulted in the cancellation of the band's concerts both in Egypt and in Jordan. (GV) (Agenzia Fides, 24/7/2019)

In Lecce you can find a decidedly unusual restaurant, which in a few years has become one of the most observed and desidered destination for a foodie public that crosses the national borders: it is the Bros'. Its chef and owner Floriano Pellegrino has been nominated as one of the most promising europeans under 30 by Forbescome magazine.
Floriano works everyday with the ingredients of this land alongside a young brigade and his partner, the pastry chef Isabella Potì, also cited by Forbes in the "Under 30" chart to keep an eye on in 2017.

Filmmaker-turned-administrator Oh Seok-geun has been appointed chairman of the Korean Film Council (KOFIC), South Korea's film industry regulator and funding body. The position had been vacant for six months following the resignation in dubious circumstances of Kim Sae-hoon.
Oh takes up the post with immediate effect, according to an announcement by the Ministry of Culture, Sport and Tourism. He has a three-year term running until January 2021.
The council has been buffeted by the political and economic scandals that led to the impeachment of former South Korean President Park Geun-hye. As a result, Oh will have to rebuild bridges and help KOFIC regain the trust of the industry.
Oh directed 1993 film "The 101st Proposal" and then became GM of the Busan festival before directing "Love Is a Crazy Thing" in 2005. In 2010 he co-produced Korea-Japan-Thailand co-production "Camellia," which was the closing film of the Busan festival that year. Oh subsequently became director of the Busan Film Commission, which has played a leading role in Asia.
"We put emphasis on appointing the [right] figure with experiences and abilities to bring together and communicate with the film industry as well as to solve pending issues," said the Ministry. "We expect that [Oh's] appointment will help re-establish KOFIC's role and status which have been tarnished by the 'blacklist,' as well as solve industry's pending issues."
Kim was accused of embezzling public money and of colluding with Park's regime. Park and her associates interfered in film policy and operated a secret list of cultural industry talent who were denied public funding because of their political views. Kim resigned in May, a day after the inauguration of current president Moon Jae-in.

Easton Police Encourage Parents to Talk to Children About Stranger Danger
EASTON — Following an incident this week where a man approached a child and asked him if he wanted a ride in his car, Chief Gary Sullivan and the Easton Police Department are reminding parents to talk to their children about dealing with strangers.
Children see strangers every day, whether at the store, walking home from school or playing in their neighborhood. To protect and educate children, parents and guardians should teach them about strangers and suspicious behavior, as well as take a few precautions of their own.
"Most strangers that our children interact with on a daily basis are not bad people and we do not want our kids to be afraid of people that they don't know," Chief Sullivan said. "But, we want all of the kids in our community to be safe and understand the warning signs of potentially dangerous or suspicious behavior and feel comfortable reporting it to an adult or loved one."
The National Crime Prevention Council recommends several tips on talking to children about strangers:
- Explain to your child that a stranger is anyone who your family doesn't know well. It is common for children to think that "bad strangers" look scary, which is not only untrue, but dangerous for children to think this way. Tell your child that no one can tell if strangers are nice or not nice just by looking at them, and they should be careful around all people they don't know.
- Don't make it seem like all strangers are bad. Teach your child about safe strangers and adults they can trust — police officers, firefighters, teachers, principals and librarians. Also show your child places they can go if they need help, such as local stores, restaurants and the homes of family friends in your neighborhood.
- Teach your child to be wary of potentially dangerous situations and the warning signs of suspicious behavior, like when an adult asks them to disobey their parents or do something without their permission, asks them to keep a secret, asks children for help, or makes them feel uncomfortable in any way.
- Talk to your children about how they should handle potentially dangerous situations. You can use the "No, Go, Yell, Tell," saying, which teaches children to say no, run away, yell as loud as they can, and tell a trusted adult what happened right away if they feel threatened by a stranger.
In addition to teaching children how to recognize and handle dangerous situations and strangers, there are other things that parents can do to help their children stay safe:
- Know where your children are at all times. Make it a rule that children must ask permission or check in with you before going anywhere. Give your children both your work and cell phone numbers so they can reach you at all times.
- Point out safe places. Show your children safe places to play, safe roads and paths to take and safe places to go if there's trouble.
- Teach children to trust their instincts. Explain that if they ever feel scared or uncomfortable, they should get away as fast as they can and tell an adult. Tell them that sometimes adults they know may make them feel uncomfortable, and they should still get away and tell another adult what happened. Reassure your child that you will always help them when they need it.
- Teach your children to be assertive. Make sure they know that it's okay to say no to an adult and to run away from adults in dangerous situations.
- Encourage your children to play with others. There is safety in numbers.
