America’s “Suez moment” has arrived
Don Edgar considered himself extremely lucky.
It was early in the morning on November 6, 1956, and the World War II veteran turned journalist for Britain’s Daily Express was one of just two reporters invited to witness Britain’s invasion of Egypt.
Standing on the bridge of a British warship, Edgar wrote that it was “the most impressive military operation the British had put on for many a year, with parachutists, marine commandos, tanks, aircraft, and a naval bombardment.”
Naturally he would say so. Edgar was British.
The rest of the world, however, was not terribly impressed. And the United Nations– along with the US, Canada, Australia, and more, raced to condemn Great Britain for its aggression.
Britain naturally felt justified. Egypt had recently seized the Suez Canal– one of the most important waterways in the world linking the Mediterranean and the Red Sea.
For Britain, the Suez Canal was a critical transport route for Saudi oil, not to mention a major asset; the British government had purchased a 44% stake in the canal back in the 1870s for a mere 4 million pounds, and the annual dividend soon exceeded their entire purchase price.
So, when Egyptian President Gamal Nasser nationalized the canal in July 1956, the British weren’t willing to take that lying down. To them it felt like theft. Prime Minister Anthony Eden called it “piracy”, and he was willing to go to war to take the canal back.
Unfortunately for Eden, he underestimated the Egyptians’ resolve to fight. Nasser responded by blowing up dozens of transport and cargo ships, effectively clogging up the canal and rendering it useless.
Eden also didn’t count on the immense global backlash… and not just diplomatically.
It was bad enough that pretty much every country on earth, from the United States to the Soviet Union, joined together in denouncing the invasion.
Britain was also severely punished by financial markets. Foreign capital fled the country. The British pound plummeted. Both the stock market and the bond market crashed.
It was absolutely brutal. Britain’s main stock index fell 170 points, roughly 8% in the span of ten days. Bond prices fell by 15% and bond yields surged as a result. And the British government had to burn through roughly 15% of its total foreign reserves ($279 million at the time) just to keep its economy afloat.
Britain simply didn’t have the economic resources to withstand such intense financial pressure– much of which was inflicted by the United States. So, the Brits quickly backed down and accepted the ceasefire terms dictated by the UN.
What started as an almost patriotic mission to reclaim British patrimony ended in a humiliating withdrawal– and one that left no doubt in anyone’s mind that Britain was no longer a major superpower.
Financial markets do crash from time to time, often in reaction to government policy or some exogenous event. But it’s extremely unusual to have the trifecta, i.e. a major decline in the stock, bond, AND currency markets, simultaneously.
For example, if a government announces a major tax increase, then most likely the stock market will suffer a sudden decline. Higher taxes are bad for business, and valuations will take a hit.
But higher taxes would make bonds a more attractive investment (since the additional tax revenue makes the government more creditworthy).
So, stocks would fall, yet bonds would benefit.
As another example, slashing interest rates would typically be perceived as good for business… so stocks would rise. But the reduced rates (which may invite higher inflation) could be perceived as bad for the currency… so the dollar might drop as a result.
There are always trade-offs, and capital tends to move in/out of various asset classes.
But again, it’s extremely unusual for all of these assets to decline, so dramatically, at the same time. And it’s usually a pretty clear sign that capital is fleeing your country, i.e. foreign investors are pulling a lot of money out, quickly.
Usually if this freak occurrence does take place, it happens to some little banana republic. Zimbabwe and Venezuela come to mind.
But for a wealthy, developed country to suffer such financial humiliation is extremely rare… and signals that something has gone terribly wrong.
Again, this happened to Britain during the Suez Crisis. It also happened to Japan after their big crash in the 1980s.
Even the US was humbled in 1971 when the dollar was taken off the gold standard; the Dow Jones Industrial Average fell 7% that August, the bond market fell (i.e. bond yields rose by more than 100 basis points), and the dollar lost 15% against other major currencies.
The US was able to recover back in the 70s, however, because it managed to maintain its position as the global reserve currency– and even still, it took a decade of stagflation before they managed to right the ship.
This month we witnessed the same pattern. After the Liberation Day nonsense, the US stock, bond, and currency markets all crashed (and gold surged to $3500 as a result). Substantial foreign pressure mounted.
And, at least for the moment, it appears that the US government is capitulating; just like Britain in 1956, the US government lacks the financial sturdiness to withstand the pressure.
Also, just like Britain in 1956, this may be the moment that future historians mark as the end to US global primacy.
It seems naive to think that the rest of the world will simply move on and forget about Liberation Day. Most likely this fiasco will accelerate the US dollar being displaced as the world’s dominant reserve currency.
No one knows yet what that new system will look like. And it’s because of the “I don’t knows” that gold surged to a peak of $3500.
Central banks have been the key driver of that trend, because, while they don’t know what the next reserve currency will be, they do know that they’ll be able to trade for it with gold.
I still believe this long-term trend will hold, i.e. central banks will continue to trade their US dollar reserves for gold.
But at the moment, gold is looking a bit overbought; its surge in price has been nearly a one-way street, and I wouldn’t be surprised if there were a short-term correction.
On that note, it’s very difficult to find anyone today who is bearish on gold… and when everyone has jumped on the same bandwagon, I start getting a bit nervous.
Fortunately, there are still a number of absurdly cheap gold companies, like mining, service, and streaming businesses, that are trading at ridiculously low multiples.
We’ll talk about this more next week.

TAFAKKUR: Part 294
CELESTIAL REFLECTIONS: Part 2
RELATIVITY
So, in this spirit, let us resume our celestial reflections. Could it be that the six-day creation account found in both the Bible and the Qur’an starts here (i.e., six days for the formation of the Solar System or even our galaxy and not necessarily for the creation of the whole universe)? Which begs the question, are these days necessarily days as we know them? Is it explicitly stated in either of the holy books that a day is necessarily made up of twenty-four hours? The answer is no. Let us review two key verses from each book. Cross-referencing between the two holy books is not unwarranted. Muslims believe that it is the same God who revealed both books.
He Who created the heavens and the earth and all that is between, in six days, and is firmly established on the Throne (of Authority) . . . (Qur’an 25:59)
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. (Bible, KJV Genesis 1:1)
Reference is made to the creation of “the earth.” There is no compelling reason to assume that the six-day narrative pertains to the creation of the whole universe. Reference may be to the creation of the Solar System or just the Galaxy. Second, there is no particular reason to theorize that the six days are days as we know them now.
Let us ask a simple question here, what is a day? It is the time it takes the Earth to revolve around its axis (24 hours). Given that the Milky Way is a gigantic spiral disk with a bright, central bulge, what would be a day for our galaxy? The time for it to revolve around its axis (galactic center) is estimated to be 225 million years.
It is estimated that up until now the Sun has completed 20 revolutions around the galactic center - that is a time span of 4.5 billion years (the estimated age of our planet); or, if we look at it in another way, 20 days. Six days in this sense, therefore, is equivalent to 1.35 billion years. We must also wonder whether the time it takes the Earth to revolve around its axis has been twenty-four hours since “day one.” Ultimately, time is a relative measurement.
Einstein’s 1905 theory of time and space, Special Relativity, proposed that distance and time are not absolute. The ticking rate of a clock and the length of a “yardstick” depend on the motion of the observer. The closer you approach the speed of light - about 186,000 miles per second or 300,000 kilometers per second - the slower your watch seems to be ticking relative to others. Another way to put it is, the faster you travel through space, the slower you travel through time. Imagine a vehicle capable of such maneuvering - this is, in effect, a time machine.
It may not be very helpful to think about this too much, but if you have seen Paramount Pictures’ 2002 sci-fi movie Clockstoppers, imagine: you, moving at a speed approaching the speed of light, would see everyone else as if they were the ones functioning in “hypertime.” This notion of a “hasty” human attitude is reiterated in the Qur’an; and, the whole idea of time relativity is also suggested several times in the Qur’an. Two examples follow. When looked at in the light of Relativity, these verses make perfect sense and are quite revealing:
Yet they ask you to hasten on the Punishment! But God will not fail in His Promise. Verily a Day in the sight of your Lord is like a thousand years of your reckoning. (22:47)
The angels and the spirit ascend unto him in a Day the measure whereof is (as) fifty thousand years. (70:4)
Further, Relativity posits time and space as being one insolvable unit called space-time, as the fabric of the universe, as it were. As such, time and space as we know them only started from the moment the universe was conceived… with a “big bang.”
THE BIG BANG THEORY
The Big Bang theory (BBT) is the most popular scientific theory on the origin of the universe. Its most popular version, the -inflationary universe,- presented by Alan H. Guth in 1980, postulates that the universe was created some fifteen billion years ago in an escalatory manner from a cosmic explosion of a -Primary Nebula- (singularity) &#8211; that is, an infinitely condensed matter - that cast matter in all directions. The theory holds for an initial expansion rate faster than the speed of light8Guth"s inflationary notion came into being in order to account for the fact that if the initial explosion was linear, as held the traditional version of the theory, first theorized by George Lemaitre in 1927, it would not explain the differential interstellar and intergalactic distances. The distances are such that some celestial regions could never have been in proximity at any point in time if the expansion had always simply proceeded at the speed of light9The big bang could not have happened at a particular place in the universe, because before it happened, as the theory goes, there was no universe. Rather, there was nothing, except for the singularity which started it all. Quantum mechanics tries to explain how, before spacetime, subatomic particles in this singularity interacted to produce an unfathomable amount of energy which was the initial spark of creation. It is believed that every particle has its anti-particle (as every matter has its anti-matter) that is a complete opposite (for example, in charge, spin, etc.). When these two antagonists meet, they annihilate each other in a tremendous burst of energy that would humble a nuclear explosion. Einstein"s famous relativity equation E=mc2 (where E denotes Energy, M mass and C the speed of light) suggests that energy and matter are interchangeable. Thus, matter was created from this primary explosion which kicked off a rapid expansion of space, and (we think) space has been expanding ever since. In the early 1920s, Edwin Hubble observed that galaxies were moving away from each other at a rate proportional to the distance between them. As galaxies moved away from us, the light they emitted was red-shifted. That is, light waves shifted to longer wavelengths (a phenomenon known as the Doppler Effect). The faster the object moved, the greater the shift. From these observations, Hubble formulated the Hubble"s Law, which helped cosmologists determine the age of the universe, and proved that the universe was expanding10The Qur'an explicitly foretold this fact: It is We Who have built the universe with (Our creative) power, and, verily, it is We Who are steadily expanding it. (51:47)11The BBT also predicted the existence of residual cosmic background radiation (the glow leftover from the explosion itself). This radiation was discovered in 1964 by Arno Penzias and Robert Wilson, who later won the Nobel Prize for their discovery.
OMEGA & THE UNIVERSE
If the universe is expanding, then it inevitably emerged from an ever-smaller mass. Go back long enough (to time zero) and you have the singularity that exploded with a -big bang,- By the same token, Einstein"s 1915 theory of General Relativity offers the antithesis scenario for the BBT. If the gravitational force pulling the matter of a massive star inward exceeds that of its gas pressure, it will collapse onto itself creating a -black hole.- Does a similar -black- fate await the universe? In Stephen Hawking's Universe documentary, Hawking contends that the concept can be extrapolated to the whole universe. If the universe has too much matter, it will eventually collapse onto itself under the influence of its own gravitational force. This bleak scenario is called the Big Crunch. By contrast, if the universe has too little matter, it will continue to expand indefinitely stretching ever thinner and colder. This bleak scenario is called the Big Chill. If the amount of matter present (i.e. the average density of our universe) is equal to a certain hypothetical value, the -critical density,- a state of perfect balance occurs, leading eventually (albeit hypothetically) to a static universe. The ratio of the average density to the critical density is known as Omega. In a state of perfect balance, corresponding to a flat geometry of the spacetime -fabric of the universe,- Omega equals one13Now imagine if in the instance following the big bang, Omega was anything but one. The universe would have either quickly collapsed onto itself (Omega >1), or quickly headed to a big chill (Omega <1). This predicament is known as the Flatness Problem. Guth"s inflationary notion again comes to the rescue. It posits that the initial rapid expansion caused spacetime to flatten, forcing Omega toward one, regardless of what its initial value actually was. In other words, even if the pre-inflation spacetime was curved like a sphere (Omega>1) or hyperbolic like a saddle (Omega<1), the initial expansion thrust forced it into flatness (zero curvature). As it stands, we can only detect too little matter in the universe and our best estimates of Omega lie well below one. We have observed that not only is the universe expanding, it is doing so at increasing rates. Is the universal matter being slowly transformed into energy, thus driving us faster toward the Big Chill? To counter this bleak scenario and in their quest for idealism (Omega equals one), scientists are on the look out for some undetectable -dark matter- that would tip the scales. In the final analysis, it is generally believed that the universe is infinite in time and space and is destined to expand forever. But things get murky when we talk about forever. How long is forever? We can conceptualize what eternity means, even though we cannot comprehend it. Can we say the same of God?
THE CONVERGENCE OF PHILOSOPHY, RELIGION & SCIENCE
With this debate of an expanding universe comes the open/closed universe debate, with all its philosophical and scientific controversies. The consensus among scientists is that this is an open universe, expanding and not limited in space. This means that astrophysicists cannot apply the laws of thermodynamics to help decipher the mysteries of the universe, as these only apply to closed systems. Of special interest is the Second Law of Thermodynamics (Law of Increased Entropy), which states: -Energy spontaneously tends to flow only from being concentrated in one place to becoming diffused or dispersed and spread out.-14Thus, had the universe been closed, the Primary Nebula could not have formed or existed in the first place, unless -someone- had introduced it into the system. Moreover, the mathematical precision that governs the universe certainly defies the Law of Increased Entropy. To admit creation, one has to first admit the existence of a moment when the universe did not exist. Both science (especially the BBT) and religion agree on this point. Science says energy can neither be created nor destroyed (Principle of Conservation of Energy), or simply put, nothing comes from nothing. So, there must have been a master source of energy and matter that started it all: where did the primary nebula come from? I employed the investigation philosophy employed by the fictitious detective character Sherlock Holmes while reflecting on this celestial quandary: when you eliminate the impossible, whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth. I came up with the following argument that vindicates the existence of God: If there is nothing in the universe, then the existence of God is not required. But there is something. And since nothing comes from nothing, there was an original very first something. This very first something is the originator of everything else; and it is a unity. It must be the most supreme something to ever exist because it needs nothing else to originate. And since it was there first, before everything else, before time itself, and its existence is independent of anything else, it will therefore be there after everything else. And since nothing can overwhelm it, it is omnipotent. And since it exists in no defined locality, it is omnipresent. This most supreme something is God, the originator and creator of everything else.
Conclusion
Whether you choose to believe cosmological theories, no matter how skeptical you are, you must concede that there was an originator for everything. The precision and order (and can we dismiss the mesmerizing wonder of the cosmos?) that govern our solar system and sustain the universe is indicative of an omnipotent guardian. In fact, the very laws of physics are clarion proof of order, not randomness. Order needs a maintainer. God gave us ample revelations; His holy books are too accurate to be dismissed as coincidental. Above all, He gave us intelligence, curiosity and the power to reason. The inquisitive mind of the human and our insatiable appetite for knowledge promise magnificent scientific breakthroughs to unimagined realms and dimensions. We have come a long way since the last opposition. But we are still crawling, attempting to decipher the complex and exquisite codes of the universe and life

Milford Track &#8211; But that's all fake!
Because everything is cloudy and foggy Long I could not stay in the hut. It became quickly cold as hell again. So it went already soon down again.
Tumblr media
Take the road to Milford Sound
Then you can park a car at each end of the hike. As mentioned above, there are buses that take you to the start of the trek and then pick you up at the end. The buses leave from the National Park and Taupo. We only sell our own designs in limited editions, and at a great value for money. Our patches will make your clothes or bag a real unique piece of clothing. So we took our time and made many breaks to enjoy the last day. Thanks to the sticks and the flat course of the path, my leg seldom caused me pain. A new problem was allerdigns the soaked and often slippery ground from the rain of the previous day.
The landscape along the fjord is so picturesque, so green and so natural, that it inevitably fascinates its visitors.
But you don't walk the Milford every day and so we went with maximum motivation into the bus at half past 9.
>>/ul> Fossilized pollen indicates that the trees of Gondwanaland at that time were very similar to the stone disc plants found on New Zealand today. The rain makes the plants here sprout as luxuriantly as one otherwise only knows it from the tropics. Tree ferns with a span of several metres grow here, mosses transform the trees into bizarre fantasy monsters. Guided hikes take five days and four nights to complete the 53-kilometre route.
and South Seas
It was noticeable in the forest that there is much more rain in this region than in the Amazon basin. We walked along the Clinton River and had great views of the surrounding mountains. There were two small extra hikes to huge trees and the Wetland Walk into a swamp landscape coloured in deep brown, the end of which offered an impressive mountain panorama. We walked along the Clinton River to the Clinton Hut of the same name. The weather was quite good and there was not a drop of rain, which is always a miracle on the Milford Track.

Gien, the French manufacturer, unveiled a collection created in collaboration with the artist Jean-Charles de Castelbajac, whose innovative work spans art, high fashion, and design. With a passion for history, childhood, and pop art, Castelbajac's signature color palette consists of three primary shades - blue, yellow, and red. Named "L'archipel Sentimental" or "Sentimental Archipelago," the collection features endearing and innocent illustrations that evoke nostalgic memories of shared experiences with loved ones. According to the artist, "The dining table is an ocean of conversation, emotion, love, and exchange," where each plate represents poetry. The blue color serves as a bridge between the past and present, symbolizing the shared experience of being together again at the same table. As guests gather around the table, they become part of the "Sentimental Archipelago" mosaic, created at the intersection of Castelbajac's imagination and the artistry of the Gien manufactory. The Gien manufactory is a real factory of the 21st century, which is attentive to modern trends, paying tribute to tradition. Founded in 1821 and located in the Loire Valley, it is the flagship of the French arts and crafts, whose influence is recognized throughout the world. In the past, the brand has produced decorative items for the aristocratic families of Europe, designed tiles for the Paris metro and tableware for the Orient Express, earning a reputation for exceptional craftsmanship. Today, Faïencerie de Gien is known for its collections that combine elegance, sophistication and bold execution.

Access to uSCP-8211 is restricted to Level-2 personnel and above, and must be approved by at least one Level-3 personnel.
Description: uSCP-8211 is a mellifluous plant species with a unique ability to emit soothing melodies. The plant has long, thin leaves that resemble blades of grass, and its stem produces small, trumpet-shaped flowers. The flowers are typically yellow or orange in color, and emit a soft glow.
When uSCP-8211 is exposed to natural light and a suitable environment, it will begin to emit a low, soothing melody. The melody has a calming effect on those who hear it, inducing a state of relaxation and euphoria. The effect is stronger the closer a person is to uSCP-8211, with individuals standing within a few meters of the plant experiencing the most significant effects.
The effect of uSCP-8211's melody has been shown to alleviate stress, anxiety, and depression in individuals who are exposed to it regularly. However, prolonged exposure to the melody has been shown to have a negative effect on a person's cognitive abilities, with individuals exposed to uSCP-8211 for extended periods experiencing decreased mental acuity and attention span.
Attempts to propagate uSCP-8211 through conventional means have been unsuccessful, with the plant only able to reproduce through a unique asexual process. As such, the Foundation has limited access to uSCP-8211, with a small number of individuals permitted to interact with the plant in controlled environments.
Addendum: uSCP-8211 was recovered from a botanical garden in ████████, where it had been attracting large crowds due to its unique properties. The Foundation was alerted to uSCP-8211's existence after reports of individuals experiencing euphoria and hallucinations while in close proximity to the plant. Foundation agents recovered uSCP-8211 and transported it to Site-██ for containment and study.

I’ve visited this topic off and on down through the years, but as summertime winds down and the start of school looms next month, it’s worth a revisit once again. Heatwave or no heatwave, I might add. Because as the old summertime church youth camp song goes, it only takes a spark to get a fire going. True in building a campfire and in passing along faith from one generation to the next, the idea also holds water — yes, the pun is intended — when it comes to the pastime of fishing. &#8220;The most valuable thing that anyone can do is to pass on knowledge,&#8221; bass angling legend Denny Brauer once told me during a bass fishing event I was covering. Brauer, an inaugural member of the Professional Bass Fishing Hall of Fame and the 1998 Bassmaster Classic champ, knows what he&#8217;s talking about too. And not just because Brauer — now a retired competitor and a resident of the Del Rio, Texas area where he regularly fishes Lake Amistad — was the first professional fisherman to ever get his picture on a Wheaties cereal box. And not because he has won 17 B.A.S.S. events, a B.A.S.S. Angler of the Year title, a FLW Tour AOY title, and a Major League Fishing Summit Cup. But instead because Denny has taken his own fatherly advice to heart down through the years, nurturing a long running love of fishing in the life of his son, Chad. Interested in doing the same thing with your kids or grandkids this summer? Well, whether your goal is to raise the next Bassmaster Classic champ or to just simply share some good time on the water with your child or grandchild, here are my &#8220;10 Commandments&#8221; of introducing a child to the sport of fishing this summer: Keep it simple: Kids, especially young ones, have short attention spans. Keep fishing trips short, sweet, and simple with user friendly equipment. Do your homework: This is one type of homework that most kids don&#8217;t seem to mind, the preparation required for a successful fishing trip. From researching fishing spots on Internet sites like GameandFishMag.com to perusing magazines like In-Fisherman to looking at lake maps to buying groceries and supplies, getting ready for a fishing trip is almost as much fun as the actual trip is &#8211; to a kid, anyway! Plan for success: Want your kids to enjoy fishing? Then plan for easy trips that maximize their chances to catch fish! Such outings are much more likely to feature corks, crickets, and bluegills at a local pond or small lake rather than PhD post-spawn summertime bass sitting on an underwater hump in 30-feet of water on a 20,000-acre plus reservoir. Be prepared: Pack a PFD (personal floatation device) for you and your child; plenty of snacks, Gatorade and/or Kool Aid; plenty of water; high SPF sunscreen; insect repellent; a first aid kit; and a change of clothing in case of an accidental soaking. Variety is the spice of kid fishing trips: On my childhood bass fishing trips with my late dad Bill, he always managed to bring along a box full of crickets, a couple of bobbers, and some small hooks. When the bass fishing slowed on eastern Arkansas&#8217; Horseshoe Lake where we often went, the crickets were more temptation than the lake&#8217;s big bluegills could handle! So whatever the target species is for the day, don&#8217;t be afraid to make a change in plans should the situation warrant such a move. Explore the Creator’s world around you: Fish aren&#8217;t the only thing that a fishing trip has to offer. On your next trip, don&#8217;t be afraid to lay down the rods-and-reels if the fish aren&#8217;t cooperating. A hike through the woods, a marsh, or a field to observe the wonders of the Good Lord&#8217;s grand creation can do wonders for a child&#8217;s life-long memories of the outing. Take plenty of photographs: We live in the era of Instagram and Facebook, so be sure to take plenty of Smartphone photos of your summer fishing trips. Share them on social media so that family and friends can see. And be sure to print a few of the best ones off and put them in a frame for the wall.
I still have the photos of my early bass fishing trips with my late dad. The fish aren&#8217;t as big as I remembered them being, but the old school Kodak memories are still priceless. Keep it fun: Fishing with your children isn&#8217;t the final hour before the Bassmaster Classic weigh in. So keep it fun and lighthearted, laughing a lot, and smiling a lot too. Because you never know — by focusing on good times on the water, your kids just might get hooked on the sport of fishing for the rest of their lives. Keep a journal: Trust me, writing in a journal or a scrapbook after a tiring day on the water can be difficult. But both you and your child will one day appreciate the yawning attempt to anchor these memories — with a written record and a few photos. Especially when you&#8217;re both a little bit older and the day&#8217;s details start to grow a bit fuzzy. Don&#8217;t be afraid to keep a few for the table: Sure, catch and release is all the rage on many good bass lakes like Lake Texoma, Lake Ray Roberts, and Lake Fork. But newcomers to the sport of fishing, especially younger children, often want to eat the fish that they catch. As long as the fish is of the appropriate legal size and species, and the resource will not be negatively impacted from the catching-and-frying of a few fish, then don&#8217;t hesitate keep a few for the table. Teaching your child about filleting a fish, dipping it in batter, frying it in hot peanut oil, and enjoying every last morsel is another good way to create an enthusiastic angler. Besides, such culinary treats got many of us hooked on fishing. And it&#8217;s often all that it takes to get a newcomer hooked on the sport of fishing for a lifetime. One thing to keep in mind as you consider the 10 tips listed above is that your children or grandchildren aren&#8217;t the only newcomers that the sport of fishing needs today. Spouses, extended family members, neighbors, co-workers, or even your friends from church or civic organizations are potential converts to the joys of fishing. Remember that idea about it only taking a spark to get a fire going? If you enjoy fishing and want to see it continue for generations to come, then please heed the most important and fundamental fishing tip that I know how to give: introduce someone new to the sport and keep taking them out until they&#8217;ve fallen in love with fishing hook, line, and sinker. In other words, create a spark or two, get that fire roaring and pass your love of fishing on! source

Learn Latin American Folk Guitar | Cuban Guitar Lessons
Discover Latin American Folk Guitar. Welcome to the World Music Methods online guitar classes where you can learn traditional guitar styles from Cuba, Colombia, and Venezuela
Tumblr media
visit site: https://worldmusicmethod.com/
Welcome to the intensely syncopated Cuban style of “Son” folk music, made famous by the Buena Vista Social Club. Multiple musical roots combine to create Son’s lively but laid-back, up-beat and spirited sound. Re-invented for solo guitar by the masterly Camilo Menjura, this course puts a whole 13-piece band in your own two hands. By the end, you’ll be note and pitch-perfect in one of Cuba’s Son classics – “El Cuarto Del Tula”. If you fancy a trip into the intricate, mesmerizing music of South America, guided by one of the greats, then pack your bags and travel with the maestro
Camilo grew up in Bogota. 11 years’ learning local folk by ear inspired him to study classical guitar at one of Colombia’s top music Academies. He emerged with a rich understanding of musical theory and harmony, a refreshed perspective on traditional music, and a sharp insight into how to teach his native sound to students versed in orthodox approaches to the guitar.
Now based in Britain, he’s twice won Musician of the Year at the UK Latin Awards. His work spans everything from composing film and theatre scores to appearances at the Mali Festival of the Desert and WOMAD, through to leading London’s extraordinary World Music Choir. Composer, performer, teacher: Camilo is a multi-talented, dynamic, ambassador for Colombian culture.
