Does the reporter really think the guy is wearing red? It sure looks like pink to me.

And please no politics, I don’t want to hear about bail reform, this guy is charged with a felony he won’t qualify. I’m more so curious if there’s something logistical I’m missing or if anyone has more info. Do they lock the doors between cars in Chicago? That would make a little more sense if they were between stops and there was no where to go.

I just recorded a lil video where I show some simple exercises you can do. I myself don't do this enough but it is really helpful for players of all levels.
Its basically the tools for a simple 5 minute left hand warm-up routine. I have to say I'm tired and and lessthansober so I'm having some difficulties playing (and talking in English too) but I tried to make it short and sweet, and gave most time to the (last two) most important concepts.
Let me know if you have any further questions or if this was helpful to you :)

Thanks a lot ! If you can send a recording that would help a lot. I may be having more troubles because I am a leftie and my fretting hand is my natural hand.

Hell yeah dude, keep it up! Guitar is so hard but so awesome and satisfying to play :)
Tho If I may be bold, your fretting hand looks very cramped and 'unhealthy', especially how your middle finger curls up and folds over the ring finger, looks very unnatural.
I can tell you're in the beginner phase so it's normal to have this issue. I would however suggest you look up exercises and tips on how to hold your hands and how to hold your fretting hand more naturally.
You will likely hurt yourself and might cause longterm issues if you don't work on this (bad) form. Don't get too scared by that tho, again, this is a normal part of learning guitar.
I'd suggest some basic stretch exercises, exercises focussed on having a light touch on the strings and exercises that force you to keep your fingers on the fretboard while playing the next note on the next string. A simple 5-10 minutes spent on that at the start of every practice session will do.
If you'd like, I could record myself doing some exercises I have used and learned over the years so you can copy what I'm doing or at least know what sort of exercises to look up yourself.
Bad form is normal for beginners but it's incredibly important to work on that asap, and your fingers look slightly more cramped than the average beginner so I think focusing a little on that would really benefit you and also help your longevity on the instrument.

Out in the street is far more dangerous. The main hazard during an earthquake is falling debris. Hiding under a sturdy desk or table is a best. If that's not an option, keep away from anything that can fall and protect your head.

Interesting. Thank you for your replies. I never thought about over head debris, etc. I grew up in Cali. When ever we had earthquakes, I would go stand in the middle of the front yard, (home), or the playground, (school)
I've never been in an earthquake while 26 stories up, so I guess my thought process is a bit skewed.
Thanks for the reply. We all have something to learn.

Folks when an earthquake hits get away from the windows! In the Northridge quake they dug glass out of the wall that was calculated, in order to penetrate that deeply, to be traveling at 60MPH.

speaking from another earthquake prone nation where we used to do earthquake drills at school ... why are none of these people under their desks?

Oh that was a terrible day. I am still haunted by the images of the water sweeping over everything without a sign of slowing down.

We had the same advice to get under a desk growing up in Alaska
The main dangers in earthquakes are things falling on you or you falling over. Getting under a desk is good advice to prevent things from falling on you.
Trying to get outside during an earthquake is generally not great advice. The USGS says, "DON'T run downstairs or rush outside while the building is shaking or while there is danger of falling and hurting yourself or being hit by falling glass or debris."
After the 7.1 in Anchorage I looked things up and concluded that the best thing for me to do if an Earthquake happens at night is stay in bed, since there's nothing overhead in my room.
