First uke

I don't usually keep it on the wall like that because I know that it could just fall over so don't come at me in the comments but I just got it and I'm really excited

I suck at strumming though so I'm using a plastic pic is that okay? I don't have a felt pic and don't plan on going out of my way to get a pic

P.s you've probably never heard of the brand Queen because it's a local brand from the country I'm from also it's a concert for anyone wondering

Israelis reject OU

I just wanted to say for those who don't know a decent bit of Israelis reject OU simply because it is not an Israeli certification (there is no real logic or law that I know of forbidding certifications that aren't Israeli from being eaten in Israel) I am in Israel and do eat OU

Is there any genuine reason for this (especially since OU is considered one of the best certifications in the world)? it just fascinates me

And is there such a law about having to eat Israeli certifications when in Israel that I am not aware of?

7 nation army On Alto recorder pitched down

I thought this might sound pretty good on a bass recorder I don't own a bass recorder though so I decided to pitch down an alto recorder(Ironically making it more authentic) in my daw

P.S please don't mind the bad mic quality(I have yet to purchase a decent mic so this was done on my laptop's mic) and slightly slow playing(Didn't feel like recording it again as I was just doing it for fun)

Online sheet music store

​

I mainly view my sheet music on my tablet and play it off that (real modern I know)

But a lot of sheet music online I find like books are only available physical and shipped but I don't want to pay shipping prices which is the main reason I use my tablet are there any good sheet music stores that sell music books in ePub or PDF format

Edit: Forgot to mention I mean for mainly Alto recorder as that's the one I mostly play

ישראל טובה בייסבול.

רק רציתי להגיד כמה מפגר זה שישראל מנסה כל כך הרבה בכדורגל אבל די גרועים אבל כשאני אומר לישראלים שאנחנו די טובים בבייסבול (שזה לא שקר אנחנו בסדר גמור וזה בכלל בלי כל כך הרבה בייסבול בארץ) הם מזלזלים בספורט אז רק רציתי לציין את זה תודה על הזמן (כן אני אמריקאי)

hello Looking for citizenship advice I believe I am eligible

My grandmother's father (Great grandfather) Was born in Poland I come from a long Jewish family He was forced to Flee Poland due to a rise in anti semitism I believe after 1920 (Which as far as I could find is important) We are currently looking for his birth certificate if we can find it and I can prove that he is my great grandfather due to the circumstances that would be enough to become Polish correct? I know Poland has been making immigration hard lately, so I thought I would ask if the Path I think I should take is the right one. Also, if anyone has done this before would love some tips (I'm planning on calling the Polish embassy tomorrow to get a clearer explanation)

alto Recorder scales

For some reason, I could not find any Alto recorder scales for free on the Internet; either I suck at searching, or it's hard to find, so I did what any rational person would do and spent two hours making my own. Enjoy (This took all my practice time because I didn't think it would take so long, but oh well)

Please tell me if I made any mistakes, as I suck at music theory. I don't think I did, but if I did, please tell me, and I will update the sheet music.

Camera question

I'm a noob who wants to start Street photography. I have always found it beautiful. I own 2 retro cameras (I don't think the second one is retro, but I'll roll with it). I have a decent grasp of camera settings, and I understand what they do, and the same thing with image editing. The two cameras I own are an old Nikon point-and-shoot that still works perfectly fine; the only problem is the flash is dead, but it seems to be from the early twenty-tens. And my second camera is an old film point-and-shoot from the 80s or 90s that belonged to my great-grandmother. I believe it works fine, although the last time I used it was like 6 years ago, and I never ended up getting the pictures. Unfortunately, I lost the roll of film when I moved houses, and I never got a chance to take it to a photo lab. Anyways, my question is: if I really enjoy street photography, what is a more professional camera I should get that has a removable lens and more control and stuff like that

When it comes to my budget, because I am just a teenager trying to start new stuff probably a cheap budget camera that is decent and has a removable lens for more control. Specifically in the range of 50-100 USD. Sorry I know That's tight. Also, just thought: Are those new digital film cameras actually good? The ones that are designed to look like film but are digital

Also, do I even really need a new camera with more customizability? Or is what I have good enough

Best international online recorder stores

I'm in Israel (I know controversial lol) but I'm looking to get a sopranino recorder but none of the stores near me sell them they really only have Alto and soprano I wouldn't be surprised if there is a specialty store in my area that sells specifically barack/renaissance instruments including Yamahas and other plastic recorders but most of these types of places are small and I can't just find them on Google you need to be in the know I think I'll ask a local Facebook group but if all else fails do you have any online recommendations even if you're not sure they ship here I'll check
