December 12, 2018 In this attunement we're going to experiment with a first, deliberate interaction with our inner critic. This might sound scary so I'd like to just set the parameters that we'll work within.
We're not getting into a boxing ring or debating with our inner critic. We're not even trying to spend time with our inner critic when he or she is really activated; it's not the time for this if the critic is on the attack!
From a grounded, neutral place, you might give a gentle salutation to the inner critic and maybe approach him/her with a light touch. In a light and easy way, you model that behavior for him to interact with you. The way you would visit with an elderly relative for tea and biscuits. The way you would approach an animal that you haven't encountered before.
Let's see if you can bring this attitude of a bit of caution, but also a thoughtfulness and a curiosity as you endeavor to spend just a little bit of time with this inner critic.
From a steady, relaxed place, let's take a moment here and take a few breaths together.
You might prefer to be standing up for this if that helps you feel more into your body and feel the ground beneath your feet. And just let yourself become more aware of the space around you and the solidness of your own body in space.
And take all the time you'd like. If you need some more time, you can take it right here.
You might be feeling apprehension, or even some dread, knowing that you are engaging a bit with the inner critic.
Keeping very close to your own breathing, and from within your own sense of yourself, find just the right distance between you and the critic.
...so as not to get flooded. We don't want to get taken over.
Maybe the right distance is from behind a window, or at the other end of a hallway. Maybe you imagine yourself up on a hill looking down toward him.
So from this vantage point, you might just take a couple of moments and describe what this critical one looks like to you; this one who might think it knows what's right or is always quick with an insult. Whether he has a kind of human form. Whether he looks like a mythical creature. Whether he looks like someone you know.
We're not going to engage with him, or be with him. Let's just stay this far away and have a look, and see if we can describe how he appears.
You might notice how he moves, his expressions, what he is wearing. How does he take in his surroundings? Is he grinning? Scowling? Is he determined to get somewhere?
And continue to check that you are at the right distance, so you continue to feel safe and comfortable. You might back up even more so you can get a better sense of the critic as not you.
Let's see if you could imagine how it might be from his point of view. What might this critic want for you? Maybe seeing what he wants for you and wants to protect you from.
No need to think or answer for him — simply turn your attention towards him and listen with interest.
And you might just come back to yourself and see how you are here and how you are distinct from the inner critic.
Maybe he has a name. Maybe a particular hat. The more you can distinguish him, the more you can afford some space between your whole self-in-presence and this particular part that has one primary quality. Just notice how it is for you to engage in the softer, maybe even bemused way, with this seemingly dangerous aspect of you.
So this is enough for now. Let's find a nice place to end. Maybe you want to give your critic a wave or nod and thank him for the visit. Let him be on his way.
In this exercise, we are practicing having an intra-relational gentleness with particular parts of ourselves — parts that can be very loud, or overwhelming, or even menacing. The parts that threaten to merge with us. A part that even seems as though they are us.
This practice is about distinguishing our whole selves from these important but un-integrated parts. In this way we can observe, engage and foster a spaciousness in our relating.
Take a few breaths. Settle in. Notice your body in space and maybe thank yourself for your willingness to do this exercise and engage a little bit differently with a part you normally try to avoid.


Decide ahead of time how you wish to use the space. Before beginning any work, your contractor will want to know if new plumbing or water lines need to be added to accommodate wet bars. Home theater systems sometimes require special considerations when mounting televisions and surround sound speakers. Let the expert know what you're planning so they can work with your wish list and save you money down the line.
Have your contractor thoroughly inspect the space for possible damage. You may have foundation or water leakage problems that you never noticed because you weren't using the space. Catching problems before you do major basement remodeling will save you the trouble and cost of correcting them once work has already begun.
Make use of the existing floor plan. While it may be tempting to start putting up walls to separate the space into several rooms, it may not be necessary. The money you save can be put towards a worthier investment: transforming existing concrete walls or paneling into sheet rock. You'll wind up with a much more finished look that is better integrated with the rest of your home.
Use less expensive materials. You don't have to choose the most expensive finishes for your flooring, cabinets or other fixtures. Look at several options and find what works best for your budget.
Whether you want a home theater, a gym, a game room or guest quarters, basement remodeling is a smart path to improving the value of your home and your quality of life. Take advantage of that space sitting under your home and turn it into the ultimate escape for fun and relaxation.

England (British postage stamps)
Anglo-Saxon mission
NHS England is an executive non-departmental public body of the Department of Health.
NHS England oversees the budget, planning, delivery and day-to-day operation of the commissioning side of the NHS in England as set out in the Health and Social Care Act 2012. It holds the contracts for GPs and NHS dentists.
NHS England comprises around 6,500 staff in 50 sites around England. The bulk of its staff previously worked for the decommissioned primary care trusts and strategic health authorities.
NHS England is the operating name of the NHS Commissioning Board and, before that, the NHS Commissioning Board Authority. It was set up as a special health authority of the NHS in October 2011 as the forerunner to becoming an NDPB on 1 April 2013. It was renamed NHS England on 26 March 2013. Its legal name remains the NHS Commissioning Board.
Sir David Nicholson who became Chief Executive at the establishment of the Board retired at the end of March 2014 and was replaced by Simon Stevens. One of Stevens' first acts was to announce a restructure of its 27 area teams in response to a requirement to reduce running costs which would reduce staffing by around 500. The 27 teams outside London are to be reduced to 12 in 2015.

England i/ˈɪŋɡlənd/ is a country that is part of the United Kingdom. It shares land borders with Scotland to the north and Wales to the west. The Irish Sea lies northwest of England and the Celtic Sea lies to the southwest. England is separated from continental Europe by the North Sea to the east and the English Channel to the south. The country covers much of the central and southern part of the island of Great Britain, which lies in the North Atlantic; and includes over 100 smaller islands such as the Isles of Scilly, and the Isle of Wight.
The area now called England was first inhabited by modern humans during the Upper Palaeolithic period, but takes its name from the Angles, one of the Germanic tribes who settled during the 5th and 6th centuries. England became a unified state in the 10th century, and since the Age of Discovery, which began during the 15th century, has had a significant cultural and legal impact on the wider world. The English language, the Anglican Church, and English law – the basis for the common law legal systems of many other countries around the world – developed in England, and the country's parliamentary system of government has been widely adopted by other nations. The Industrial Revolution began in 18th-century England, transforming its society into the world's first industrialised nation.

Great Britain and Ireland was a set of special commemorative postage stamps issued by the Royal Mail in 2006. The stamps were the final part of the British Journey series, which had previously featured Scotland, Northern Ireland, and Wales. It was available as mint stamps, as a presentation pack, stamps cards, and a first day cover.
British Journey series
These stamps are the final issue in the British Journey series; which started in 2003 with Scotland, followed in 2004 with Northern Ireland and Wales, and South West England in 2005. The series was brought to a premature end with this issue due to a lack of popularity amongst collectors.
Stamp details
The stamps were issued as a block of stamps, five wide by two deep. The photographs selected for this issue show no sky but are intended to demonstrate the colours and textures of the United Kingdom. All values are first class.

Anglo-Saxon missionaries were instrumental in the spread of Christianity in the Frankish Empire during the 8th century, continuing the work of Hiberno-Scottish missionaries which had been spreading Celtic Christianity across the Frankish Empire as well as in Scotland and Anglo-Saxon England itself during the 6th century (see Anglo-Saxon Christianity).
The Anglo-Saxon mission began in the last decade of the 7th century in Frisia, whence, Benedict reminded the monks he urged to come to the continental missions, their forebears had come: "Take pity on them, for they themselves are now saying, 'We are of one blood and one bone with you.'" The missions, which drew down the energy and initiative of the English church, spread south and east from there. Almost immediately the Anglo-Saxon missionaries came in contact with the Pippinids, the new dominant family in Frankish territories. The earliest monastery founded by Anglo-Saxons on the continent is Willibrord's Abbey of Echternach (698), founded at a villa granted him by a daughter of Dagobert II. Pepin II, who wished to extend his influence in the Low Countries, granted free passage to Rome to Willibrord, to be consecrated Bishop of Frisia; Norman F. Cantor singles this out as the first joint project between Carolingians and the Papacy: "It set the pattern for their increasing association in the first half of the 8th century as a result of their joint support of the efforts of the Anglo-Saxon missionaries"

Tucked in just southwest of the downtown Calgary core is the community of Killarney, also known as Killarney/Glengarry. Bounded by 17th street to its' north, 37th street to its' west, Richmond Road to its' south, and 25a street to its' east, Killarney's development began in 1906 when its' original subdivision plan was registered with the Alberta Land Titles Office. In the post-war era, developers of the area erected hundreds of smaller bungalows to compliment the smaller stuccos and clapboard structures that populated Killarney already. Within the past twelve years, city developers have been slowly replacing the older structures with newer infill housing while Killarney continues with its' area redevelopment plan.
Sir James Lougheed, Killarney elementary, A.E. Cross junior high, Vincent Massey junior high, and Ernest Manning senior high school serve the public school students of Killarney while Catholic school students are assigned to attend the Holy Name elementary school, St. Michael junior high, and Bishop Carroll senior high school.
The community's near 7,000 residents have access to a number of commercial shopping spaces within the 17th avenue and 37th street districts. Westbrook Mall is also located in the neighborhood's immediate north. There are also parks located in pockets of open space found in Killarney as well as in bordering communities. Many residents enjoy these amenities as well as others that Killarney offers including its' Aquatic and Recreation Centre, and the restaurants that line its' northern border.
The West LRT C-Train, which only recently opened in December 2012, includes a stop just across 17th avenue.
Calgary Transit also provides transportation with stops that surround the community including those on 26th avenue, 37th street, and on 17th avenue.
With its' gentle landscapes and viable routes of transportation relative to other parts of the city, Killarney is a remarkable neighborhood. Its' community association serves it well and regularly seeks input from the community's residents on any appeals from the city or others for land development.
Those looking for a community that has played a part in Calgary's history and with an attractive location relative to the downtown core, Killarney is smack dab where it's at. Far enough from the core to have that small town neighborhood feel while also being in close enough proximity to only be minutes away from downtown, Killarney is gentle, kind, and home.

Keyna Wilkins is a pioneering musician-composer who performs her own unique compositions and improvisations. She was one of three national finalists in the APRA/AMCOS Art Music Awards for Individual Excellence 2018 and has performed around the world. While classically trained, she has branched into jazz, flamenco, live theatre and has studied intuitive conceptual improvisation with Tibetan Buddhist musician Tenzin Cheogyal.
In her solo piano concerts, Wilkins explores the concept of Ad Libitum (Ad Lib) as spontaneous musical ideas inspired by her myriad of music experiences with the aim of synthesizing into one voice, creating emotional connection and attaining a meditative state. Stylistically broad, inspired by Debussy and Miles Davis in equal measure, and sometimes with fragments of her fully composed music, her concerts will take you on a journey of impressionistic dream-like sequences alongside landscape depictions, existential philosophical quests alongside whimsical gestures.
In 2019 She will present Ad Libitum at MONA (Tasmania) and Australasian Piano Pedagogy Conference (Brisbane Unviersity)
In 2017 Wilkins released Keys Across The Sky, a solo piano album of her compositions and improvisations inspired by jazz, flamenco and impressionism and in 2011 she released an entirely improvised album, Jazz Reverie. Wirripang has published a number of her solo piano compositions: "Sky Pieces" is a book of 8 miniatures and Star Dance has been included in Wirripang's Piano Anthology of Women Composers of Piano Music Vol 2 including CD recorded by Katie Zhukov to be launched in 2019 at the Australasian Piano Pedagogy Conference. Her compositions involving piano have been performed by herself and other pianists such as Kosmas Lapatas (Greece) and Yasmin Rowe (Melbourne) around the world including concert halls in USA, Greece, Germany, Poland, UK, Melbourne, Adelaide and Sydney.
She is also an experienced cocktail/wedding/events pianist and accompanist with 15 years experience playing at luxury hotels such as the Langham, Four Seasons, and Queen Victoria Building as well as accompanying exams and recitals.

The brother of Staff Sgt. Dustin Wright, one of four U.S. soldiers killed in an ambush in Nigerearlier this month, said he wants to know if the military may have made mistakes that ultimately led to his brother's death.
The statement came just hours after the Defense Department, which is investigating the Oct. 4 attack, provided the first official timeline of the events that led up to the ambush.
Wright, 29, and three other U.S. soldiers — Sgt. La David Johnson, 25; Staff Sgt. Bryan Black, 35 and Staff Sgt. Jeremiah Johnson 39 — were killed after their unit came in contact with a larger unit of local tribal fighters associated with ISIS, according the department.
Five Nigerien partner troops were also killed in the confrontation, the department said.
In a Monday briefing, Gen. Joseph Dunford, chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, said he still had major questions about the "tough firefight," such as whether the unit's mission changed at the last minute and if the troops had adequate intelligence, equipment and training.
"We do not blame the Army or the President; war is hell, and even the best laid plans go to the wayside when the first bullet flies," he added.
ABC News' Matt Foster contributed to this report.

← When we knew Comey was going to achieve 'greatness'!
There's more important stuff to study than 9/11 'something some people did' →
Because illegal immigrants are so good for a community . . .
Posted on April 14, 2019 by Designated2
Among the "good things" illegal immigrants do for a community, "a much better culture because of the 'diversity' they bring? And they can eliminate almost entirely the crime of "cultural appropriation"!
Now There's a Mayor with the Right Attitude
Philadelphia, 'a model of a well run city' (insert smirk here) has a mayor who believes President Trump's idea to send illegal immigrants to sanctuary cities is a great idea: "While the Trump administration's proposal shows their disdain to basic human dignity, the City (Philadelphia) would be prepared to welcome these immigrants just as we have embraced our immigrant communities for decades."
And, why not? Keep in mind, and we are not the first to note this (Tucker Carlson gave an excellent commentary on this Friday night on Fox), Democrats, especially those in control of sanctuary cities (the Wall Street Journal referred to them in a 'news' article Saturday as "so-called" sanctuary cities) have cited all the good things illegal immigrants can bring to America:
– the crime rates in the illegal immigrant population are lower than in the American citizen population
– illegal immigrants make our economy stronger
– illegal immigrant neighborhoods are 'safer' in sanctuary cities
– illegal immigrants have stronger "family values"
– illegal immigrants do jobs Americans refuse to do (and cheaper too, it has been shown)
– illegal immigrants are harder workers than American citizens
– Illegal immigrants contribute more to the US economy than they they receive/cost
Nancy Pelosi says that: "it's just another notion (Trump's idea to provide sanctuary cities with all the illegal immigrants that will make their communities better) that is unworthy of the presidency of the United States and disrespectful of the challenges that we face, as a country, as a people, to address who we are, a nation of immigrants."
What is she thinking??!! In her own words, this is "who we are"! Trump is merely trolling proposing helping them "self-actualize"
Don't know about you, but this seems like the best idea I've heard since the Democrats have proclaimed there should be no limits to the number of illegal immigrants our nation should accept! ( Look at, as an example, what it will do for employment opportunity for 'second language' teachers in sanctuary city schools!) DLH
Trump weighs sending 'unlimited supply' of immigrants to sanctuary cities
By Richard Cowan at Reuters
WASHINGTON, April 12 (Reuters) – President Donald Trump said on Friday he was considering sending illegal immigrants in the country to so-called sanctuary cities, prompting U.S. mayors to accept such an offer as the battle over border security raged.
Frustrated by rising numbers of undocumented immigrants arriving at the southern border and a failure to get Congress to fully fund a U.S.-Mexico border wall, Trump taunted Democrats by dangling the possibility of an influx of illegal immigrants into their communities.
"Due to the fact that Democrats are unwilling to change our very dangerous immigration laws, we are indeed, as reported, giving strong considerations to placing Illegal Immigrants in Sanctuary Cities only," Trump wrote on Twitter.
Philadelphia Mayor Jim Kenney responded in a statement: "While the Trump administration's proposal shows their disdain to basic human dignity, the City (Philadelphia) would be prepared to welcome these immigrants just as we have embraced our immigrant communities for decades."
In February, a federal appeals court said the Trump administration could not terminate federal grants to Philadelphia for its refusal to cooperate with immigration agents seeking to deport immigrants.
In Chicago, Mayor Rahm Emanuel said in a statement "We would welcome these migrants with open arms, just as we welcomed Syrian refugees, just as we welcomed Puerto Ricans displaced by Hurricane Maria and just as we welcome Rohingya refugees fleeing genocide in Myanmar."
Sanctuary cities are local jurisdictions that generally give undocumented immigrants safe harbor by refusing to use their resources to help enforce federal immigration laws that could lead to deportations.
Those localities argue that it is not their responsibility to get involved in federal enforcement and that doing so could hinder policing efforts within communities.
The Washington Post first reported on Thursday that the White House has been considering a plan for transporting immigrants in detention and releasing them into sanctuary cities that are Democratic strongholds.
The newspaper reported there was resistance from some high-level Department of Homeland Security officials concerned about several aspects of such a plan, including the potential costs.
Nevertheless, Trump, speaking to reporters at the White House on Friday, said of sanctuary cities, "We can give them an unlimited supply" of immigrants.
White House spokesman Hogan Gidley said these would be "illegal aliens that are already set for release," which likely would include families with children.
House of Representatives Speaker Nancy Pelosi's hometown of San Francisco is another sanctuary city.
In remarks to reporters on Friday, Pelosi, a Democrat, said she was not aware of the newspaper report. But she added, "it's just another notion that is unworthy of the presidency of the United States and disrespectful of the challenges that we face, as a country, as a people, to address who we are, a nation of immigrants."
Pelosi was in Leesburg, Virginia, where House Democrats were wrapping up a three-day retreat.
One immigration expert, who asked not to be identified, noted that undocumented immigrants in federal custody could be at one of several stages of the adjudication process and that Trump likely has the power to have them sent to different jurisdictions from where they are being held.
But the source added, "This is a stunt. It doesn't enhance the efficiency of the process."
Trump's challenge to Democrats came one day after Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, a Republican like Trump, told reporters that he wanted to launch bipartisan negotiations to seek solutions to the nation's immigration woes.
In March alone, 103,492 undocumented immigrants have been taken into custody along the southern border or turned away. Many of them are from El Salvador, Honduras and Guatemala and are seeking asylum in the United States away from high levels of violent crime and illegal drugs at home.

Dan Wieden (Part 1): We started by ignoring the rules of advertising
How a mutual disregard for traditional advertising kickstarted Wieden + Kennedy and Nike's success.

Dan Wieden
Dan Wieden is an American advertising executive who co-founded Wieden+Kennedy and coined the Nike tagline "Just Do It".
More on Dan Wieden
"We were pretty stupid when we began," says Dan Wieden, co-founder of one of the largest independent ad agencies in the world, Weiden + Kennedy. "Our client [Nike] didn't know what to do with us either. So between Nike and Wieden + Kennedy we kind of just ignored the rules of advertising such as we'd heard them."
Ignoring these rules meant that Wieden + Kennedy had to invent unusual advertising strategies and offer clients unexpected ideas. Its bold approach enabled the agency to survive on the edge and birthed breakthrough advertising campaigns for brands such as Nike.
The agency's intrepid spirit could be summed up in the tagline it famously coined for Nike. Wieden came up with "Just do it" after hearing about Gary Gilmore, a troubled young man who was executed by firing squad for murdering an elderly couple. Before the executioners put the hood over his head, they asked him if he had any last words. Gilmore said, "Let's do it."
Wieden says the line "just touched people in a ways that had nothing to do with athletics even. It was just a sense of taking on your life, taking it head on. Whatever is coming."
Wieden credits the success of the agency, which now has offices in seven countries, to its ragtag army of employees – "people fresh out of school or people who've been fired everywhere else".
That and what Wieden calls the "willingness to fuck something up".

In a story with the same level of historical detail, depth and intrigue as we've come to expect, hear Robert's own insight into another thriller you can't put down, and his characters that pop from the page.
The event will also feature an audience Q&A, giving you a chance to ask those questions you've always wanted to know from the mind of a creative genius. This is definitely a conversation you don't want to miss!
All tickets include a signed copy of the book (RRP £20). Tickets are £20 + £3 postage and packaging. V2 is published on Thursday 17 September, and should reach your door in the week after publication.

While I'm in Ireland, I'm very excited to have a few guest posts to share with you this week!
Today's post is from the lovely sewing blogger Marie of A Stitching Odyssey. I adore Marie. She has such a charming and fun style, I always love seeing what she's sewn up next! This year, she launched a fabulous project called the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge, and I was lucky enough that she was happy to share more about it with my readers!
It all started with these fateful words: "During 2014, I, Marie Koupparis, will sew up at least five of my vintage sewing patterns." It's now three months later and although I haven't yet started on my own pledge, over 100 of you have committed to join me and your beautifully finished makes are well and truly flooding in!
You can imagine then, just how excited I was when Tasha – one of my ultimate vintage style icons – asked me to share my motivation behind the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge. It's a story that I'm sure many of you will find familiar – I was taken in by the many charms of vintage sewing patterns when I first learned to sew in 2010, yet have hardly stitched any up at all. In fact, out of the 150+ vintage patterns I own, I've shamefully only used five for garment-making! I'm not including my mad pinny and sailor collar phases in these numbers, but still!
I think the main reason for this is that I'm so easily taken in by the frenzy surrounding the release of wonderful, new indie patterns. So this year, I've decided it's time to make room in my stitching life for both…otherwise, what's the point of collecting vintage sewing patterns in the first place? Although I haven't quite decided on my top five patterns yet, I do have a few beauties in mind!
The big question is, will you join me? You have the remainder of 2014 to do so and there are no strict rules: you can use both vintage and reproduction sewing patterns, and you don't even have to set yourself a numerical target like I did. You can simply join in if you feel you're not doing justice to your vintage pattern collection, if you want to push yourself to achieve a personal best, or even if just you want to try your hand at a vintage pattern for the very first time!
You can let me know if you're joining in by using #vintagepledge on Twitter, leaving a comment on my blog or sending me an email. I'll share your makes during regular blog round-ups, as well as via Twitter and my dedicated Pinterest board. In fact, I'll leave you with a snapshot of participants' finished makes that I've pinned…to whet your appetite and coerce you into taking part!
Thanks so much for supporting my #vintagepledge Tasha! I hope I've convinced a few of your lovely readers to dust off their vintage sewing patterns!
And thank YOU, Marie! For sharing more about the Vintage Sewing Pattern Pledge and for creating such a fun challenge. I hope it turns even more people onto vintage sewing!
Be sure to stop by A Stitching Odyssey to follow more of Marie's sewing!
Wow! You've chosen some stellar patterns, Marie! I need to dig through my stash for inspiration. I never use my vintage patterns (I struggle getting them to fit right) but they're just so beautiful and fun that I'm tempted to join in!
Fab patterns! Looking forward to seeing the goodies you make!
Thanks so much for the feature Tasha and for the comments ladies…dust off those vintage patterns I say!

J-Pop vs K-Pop: Which is more popular?
The downfall of J-Pop.
As an Amazon Associate I get commissions for purchases made through links in this post. At no extra cost to you! ^_^
I like to think I have a pretty varied musical library.
One moment I could be listening to French rap and the next it'll be Japanese lo-fi or classical. I even have a few J-Pop songs mixed into my spotify playlists here and there.
But you never seem to hear about J-Pop unless you're actively searching for.
K-pop on the other hand is all over the place whether you like it or not.
That got me thinking, which is more popular and why?
In short, K-Pop is far more popular and has a much larger fan base. This is due to multiple reasons including reinvention, struggling economies, approachability, and international investment.
Want to know where to listen to J-Pop and K-Pop?
As it turns out, Amazon Music Unlimited is a fantastic place to listen to both J-Pop and K-Pop.
With over 75 million ad-free songs, I'm fairly confident your favourite artist will be there.
You can also listen completely offline with unlimited skips and have access to a wealth of podcasts (perfect for studying Japanese!)
AND!!
If you're quick, you can get 6 months of Disney+ for free.

Be quick, it's probably not going to stay around for long!
The history of J-Pop
J-Pop (Japanese popular music) is a musical genre that's been established in Japan since the early 1970's and eventually went mainstream in the 1990's.
It came about through heavy influence of 1960's rock music (like the Beatles, beachboys, Rolling stones, etc) and culminated with a live performance by Happy End in 1971 which took the first step in introducing a new wave of pop music to the people of Japan.
Wanna see the performance?
Here you go then!
J-Pop vs K-Pop: Interest in Japan
Google trends graph comparing J-Pop and K-Pop
One of the more interesting revelations I discovered through my research is that K-Pop is vastly more popular in Japan that it's own domestic music.
We can see from the graph that in around may of 2011, K-Pop overtook J-Pop and has stayed that way ever since.
J-Pop on the other hand had been steadily declining for around 2 years before this date, adding to the clear and decisive win by Korea.
If I delve a little deeper and compare the two genres of pop music by sub region in Japan you can see just how widespread K-Pops popularity is in comparison.
In every prefecture, K-Pop's popularity sits at around 65% or over making it a clear victor.
If this isn't a sign the J-pop needs to reinvent itself, I don't know what is…
J-Pop vs K-Pop: Interest worldwide
Is K-Pop currently more popular than J-Pop worldwide?
Looking at the graph above we can see that K-Pop overtook J-Pop in terms of popularity around the world at roughly the same time as Japan.
This time however, their popularity has soared far higher than it did in Japan.
The map above shows how much more popular K-Pop is around the world. K-Pop being red and J-Pop being blue.
Is there even any blue?…
Reasons J-Pop isn't as popular as K-Pop
So we've seen the facts, now lets find out what's led to the downfall of J-Pop and the widespread popularity of K-Pop:
1. The industry isn't targeted to an international audience
One of the biggest reasons that J-Pop is nowhere near as popular as K-Pop is because the Japanese music industry as a whole has very little to no international investment.
I wouldn't be surprised if you've never actively searched for K-Pop music but still seen it on TV.
Mega K-Pop Idols 'BTS' have been on pretty much every talk show known to man, penetrated global music markets, and have world wide fame for more than just their music.
Don't get me wrong, there are some Japanese pop groups you'll probably have heard of (AKB48, Babymetal) but their fame is almost entirely constricted to Japan.
Although saying that, we've already seen from some of the above graphs that J-Pop has been steadily declining in popularity (in both Japan and worldwide) since 2009.
Whilst J-Pop is popular in Japan, it's nowhere near like it once was.
2. J-Pop doesn't adapt
Japanese pop was once extremely popular. Especially when bands like AKB48 put on regular shows at their theatre in Akihabara and did meet and greets, photos with fans, and generally did a lot to be inclusive of their fanbase.
At the time, it was something no other bands or types of music did but now times have changed.
Many bands have adopted the same style of 'Advertising' and that's led to J-Pop loosing it's sense of mystery and what once made it unique is now just expected by everyone.
Instead of re-inventing themselves and finding other ways to push the boundaries of the J-Pop music scene, most managers and producers have stayed with what they know and failed to adapt.
Go onto youtube and search through a few J-Pop songs from different artists.
99% of them sound so similar, and it's because virtually no one is willing to adapt to what's being produced (and is popular) elsewhere in the world.
Ahhh, that classic stubborn Japanese attitude!
Obviously Japan isn't as insular as it once was, but it's times like these that make me feel it still has a ways to go.
3. You'll probably listen to K-Pop, but wont like J-Pop
A lot of J-Pop is weird, like really weird. And that's coming with someone who has an unhealthy obsession to Japan.
It's almost an unwritten rule that has all J-Pop bands wear apparently 'Cute' clothing, act childishly, and sing less than relatable songs.
Of course not every J-Pop band is this way so that's quite a huge sweeping statement, but still I struggle to take anything like that seriously.
K-Pop on the other hand is relatable, normal(ish), and the vast majority of the time just has a general appeal to a wider audience than it's home country.
Let's take two songs as an example:
The first is by Japanese pop singer Kyary Pamyu Pamyu.
Annoyingly I can't embed it but you can open it in a new tab by clicking here.
I'm not saying it's not fun to watch, but I just don't understand it.
Like, does it have a point?
Why is she running down the road with toast in her mouth?
What the hell is chewing love?
And why are they in such weird costumes?
Annnnnd why are girls always portrayed as young and cute?
It seems as though it's been produced for an extremely specific audience and potentially has a 'shock' value for westerners but for the vast majority of people that's as far as it goes.
Although I must stress that not all J-Pop is this weird, I just chose it because it proves my point.
There are actually a few fantastic J-Pop songs (like this one by King Gnu), but they Consistently get overshadowed by stuff like this.
…PONPONPON gets a free pass. That song is untouchable!
Here we have a song by 'Stray Kids', a South Korean pop band.
It's video is still a little weird, but definitely not unreasonably so.
Lyrics are provided by the band in english (subs) and they make a lot more sense than someone running with toast in her mouth.
The beat is also a little more recognisable for western audiences and it's easy to say something like this could be on the charts without much problem.
Again, this isn't the case with all K-Pop, but it's the overwhelming feeling you'll get if you listen to a few of them.
4. Fans are insular
Obviously this is quite a big sweeping statement, but stick with me.
Japan isn't exactly the most open or free spirited country in the world, and this often rubs off on the people who live there.
As we've already figured out, the J-Pop music industry was specifically catered to Japanese people.
And it's an industry that's probably far bigger than we realise with over 3,000 idol groups currently active, each one of them fighting for devout Japanese fans attention.
In fact, people are so loyal to their group, even the implication that they could listen to another band is unheard of (for a lot of fans).
Couple this with the increasing competition from newly emerging groups, and you've got yourself a country that's fighting with itself to determine the most popular group.
It wouldn't be a stretch to consider this a reason that J-Pop doesn't do well in other countries around the world.
5. It's not approachable for a western audience
Japan is famous for having an extremely stubborn entertainment industry.
As such there's very limited fan activity online, especially YouTube where songs are often taken down or copyrighted.
That means no lyric videos, no translations, sometimes no covers.
It's quite clear from this that the foreign market is something Japanese band producers and managers just aren't interested in conqouring.
It also means you might not even be able to listen to your favourite J-Pop artists new song if they've region locked it in your country.
Sure you can grab a VPN and change your location by that's a lot of extra effort to go to when it's obvious they wont be going to the same amount of effort for you.
So, Japanese pop music just isn't as popular as K-Pop.
And potentially not even in Japan, that's absolutely mad!
Let me know in the comments below what your favourite J-Pop and K-Pop band is, I need some new material to listen to whilst I write these posts!

How popular is Pokémon in Japan?
Charlene Rutherford says:
I love my Jpop and couldn't live without it now, I've got my favourite bands Bullet Train and One N Only. They make songs relatable and they don't all sound the same. I'm from the UK and British and American artisys/songs all sound the same
Jonny Gleason says:
Thanks for your comment! I love J-Pop too, I perhaps haven't delved deep enough to find bands I can relate to it would seem!
Do you have any other recommendations?
I love One Ok Rock and King Gnu, but I think only the latter could be classed as J-Pop.
You're certainly right, I think most English pop music sounds the same too, haha!
Jonny ^_^
Ashley N says:
I noticed Japan is getting super possessive of their music industry after hello project (the company behind girl group Morning Musume, which used to be more popular than AKB in the late 90s and early 2000s,) stopped subbing their music videos. They had done so for about 7-10 years.
I, who still likes to go out of my way to hear good jpop have decided to learn Japanese and will probably get a VPN. I grew up listening to Morning Musume, W, Maki Gotou, S/mileage (now known as Angerme), C-ute, Berryz Koubou, and Juice=Juice. (All groups from Hello Project/Upfront) You guys probably have no idea what I am talking about but I really adored these groups and they cultivated my interest in Japan.
A Day Of Zen says:
Hi Ashley,
Great to meet you, and thanks for your comment!
That's really interesting to hear, and I totally agree with Japan's possessiveness over it's own music industry. It seems like for the songs not available in other countries, learning Japanese will be the only way! I quite like even just watching the videos, though. Some of the creative direction is absolutely fantastic!
I must admit, I haven't heard of those bands BUT, I'm about to do my very best to find a way to listen to them. Haha! ^_^
Rathin Sinha says:
When it comes to japanese music, I am extremely into jrock, old japanese artists like YMO, fishmans, ryuichi sakamoto etc. As far as jpop is concerned, I only follow solo acts like kenshi yonezu, yoasobi, milet, lisa, sirup, and artists of these kinds. I absolutely can't stand japanese idol groups. But I think the best are japanese composers like joe hisaishi, yoko kanno, hiroyuki sawano, yuki kajiura, akira yamaoka.

Termite Tubes: What Do Termite Mud Tubes Look Like?
Why Do Termites Build Mud Tubes?
Moisture – By staying in contact with damp soil, the pests remain hydrated as they forage or explore.
Protection – A termite mud tube also keeps the insects camouflaged from predators.
Access – Worker termites make tubes that stretch over barriers, like concrete foundations or plastic siding, to access new sources of wood.
What Do Termite Mud Tubes Look Like?
The pests build their pencil-thin tunnels out of soil, saliva, and feces. Older termite mud tubes are tan and may be dry or brittle, while newly built tunnels are usually dark brown.
Active shelter tubes linking underground nests to food sources have thick walls to support high termite traffic. Homeowners can check for activity by cracking the tunnels open. A termite mud tube filled with soldiers and workers indicates a serious infestation.
Aerial colonies are rare but can occur in buildings with flat roofs that collect rainwater or in other areas where moisture is plentiful. If the space offers enough food and moisture, a winged swarmer termite pair may start a nest in the attic or among wooden rafters. When this happens, residents often see termite mud tubes on ceilings or walls.
Damage from these pests can go unseen for years, resulting in costly repairs. Termite mud tubes on ceilings, walls, or foundations are crucial warning signs for homeowners. Contact the experts at Western Pest Services at the first sign of termite activity.

Warm Weather Could Cause Cheltenham Festival Ground Issues

"Ariel View of Cheltenham Racecourse" by Nilfanion (CC BY-SA 3.0)
The Cheltenham Festival takes place in March and comes after an unusually mild February, which could cause the ground staff at the course additional work. The warm weather has caused racecourses around the country a headache, with some of them running on ground that has been described as good, good to firm in places, which is unheard of for this time of year.
We will not get that at the Festival, but the ground staff are going to have to work far harder than normal to get their desired good to soft ground. The bookmakers are confident they will get the job done, with Oddschecker reporting good to soft ground is favourite on the opening day of the festival. That would normally come naturally for the course at this time of year, but instead, they are going to have to put quite a lot of water down to get there, and with the warm weather expected to stick around, they will have to water on a regular basis.
"The Cheltenham Cross Country Course" by Carine06 (CC BY-SA 2.0)
One thing we can count out this year is a repeat of the ground from last year's festival, which started out on the Tuesday as heavy. We had a lot of bad weather in February last year, including snow, and that had a real impact on the ground last year, but in the opposite way to what we are seeing this year. Both have provided very different challenges for the ground staff at Cheltenham, but there is no doubt that this season will give them a lot more work to do.
With good weather at the moment and watering in the future to consider, punters will be keeping a keen eye on the reports from Cheltenham regarding the ground. As the week progresses and racing takes place on it, we can expect it to ease even further, even if we don't have any rain and that will be good news for Native River, who heads to Friday's Gold Cup as the reigning champions. He won the 2018 Gold Cup on bad ground, grinding it out while others struggled to go as well as him on it and his chances increase considerably if the ground turns as bad this season. Many other favourites are ground dependant this season, and the owners and trainers of those runners will be keen to see water put down as soon as possible on the track.

Why Hair Grows From Your Nipples And Other Inconvenient Places
By Kate Bayless for Women's Health
Ricky John Molloy/Getty Images
One day you're lotioning up after a shower, and then you see it: a hair. Right there. On your nipple. There's no reason to freak, though. "Our body has hair follicles and oil glands all over, including around the nipples, so there is always the potential for hair growth," says Lance Brown, MD, a New York dermatologist. Of the approximately 50 million hair follicles covering your body, only one-fifth of them are located on your scalp, which leaves plenty of other places for random strands to pop up.
The Most Common Places You'll Find Body Hair
In addition to your nipples, your earlobes, chin, and belly button are three other areas that it's pretty common for hair to sprout from. When it comes to your nipples, hair generally pops up on or right outside of the areola. On your ears, we're not talking about an old-man forest growing, but you may find a solitary coarse hair on your lobe fighting with your earring for attention. On your abdomen, you may find yourself with a more pronounced patch of hair from your navel to your pubes or a few random hairs around your belly button. Your chin, meanwhile, is one of the most common places to find stragglers.
If you're finding just a few strays, it's more likely that your new hairy friends are due to hormonal fluctuations, such as the ones that accompany pregnancy or menopause. Certain medications can also cause excessive hair growth, such as testosterone, danazol, anabolic steroids, glucocorticoids, cyclosporine, minoxidil, and phenytoin. If you're finding more than just the odd hair popping up, you could have hirsutism, a condition that causes excessive, coarse body hair in women. Hirsutism can be genetic (thanks, Mom!), or it could mean that you have a more serious condition, like polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS). However, PCOS is relatively uncommon, affecting just 5 to 10% of women worldwide.
How to Deal with the Fuzz
While it's good news that those hairy new arrivals don't often signal a significant health problem, it doesn't mean they're welcome additions to your bod. Tweezers are your easiest at-home option for a few stray hairs. (Tip: Try tweezing after showering so hairs are softer and easier to pull.) Shaving or waxing may be a better fit for larger patches of hair on your abdomen or chin. If you're looking for a more permanent fix (and don't mind telling a stranger about those under-the-bra babies), Brown recommends laser hair removal. While it's not completely permanent, it will provide a longer-term solution and increase the time between tweezing or shaving sessions.

Mississippi State stays No. 1, Ole Miss drops to No. 7 and other poll tidbits
October 27, 2014 Online Editor Sports Comments Off on Mississippi State stays No. 1, Ole Miss drops to No. 7 and other poll tidbits

Breaking down the ballots for the AP Top 25 and wrapping up college football's ninth weekend.
Mississippi beat Alabama at home but lost to an LSU team on the road that had already loss twice.
Which team do you rank higher, the Rebels (7-1) or the Crimson Tide (7-1)?
Oregon lost with an injury depleted offensive line at home to Arizona, which then lost at home to Southern California on a last-second missed kick. The Trojans have now lost a total of three games, two in the final seconds.
Which team do you rank higher, the Ducks (7-1) or the Wildcats (6-1)?
Voters in The Associated Press college football poll have been trying to sort this stuff out for years.
The College Football Playoff selection committee now gets to untangle these teams. The 12-member panel's first top 25 rankings come out Tuesday night. The committee begins deliberating just outside of Dallas on Monday, the first of seven gatherings before the playoff pairings are revealed Dec. 7.
In the latest AP poll on Sunday, Mississippi State and Florida State, the only undefeated teams left in the Big Five conferences, hold the top two spots. The No. 1 Bulldogs received 46 first-place votes and the second-ranked Seminoles have 14.
Overall, the voters valued total resume and recent performances over head-to-head matchups.
Alabama moved up to No. 3, followed by Auburn, Oregon and Notre Dame.
Ole Miss fell to No. 7 after its first loss.
"I look at my vote as a snapshot of what I have seen during the season, but weighing particular importance on the most recent game," said voter Tim Griffin of the San Antonio Express-News in an email. He had Alabama ahead of Ole Miss and Oregon ahead of Arizona.
The Rebels were beaten 10-7 by LSU on Saturday night in Death Valley. LSU fans rushed the field to celebrate beating a top-five team
Just a few weeks ago the field-rushing was going on in Oxford, Mississippi, after the Rebels slipped by Alabama, 23-17.
So both Alabama and Ole Miss lost tough close games, though it could be argued the Tide lost to a better team. LSU has already lost at home to Mississippi State and were blown out at Auburn.
Alabama gets rewarded for losing to Mississippi?
"I waffled on this one for quite a while," said Adam Sparks from the Tennessean in Nashville. "My final decision was just a question of which team I think is better today on a neutral field, rather than three weeks ago in Oxford. I think Alabama is better today."
How about Oregon and Arizona?
The Wildcats were unranked when they went into Autzen Stadium earlier this month and coming off a miraculous comeback victory against California, capped by a Hail Mary TD pass.
Arizona took advantage of the Ducks' patchwork offensive line, and got the benefit of a late celebration penalty on Oregon during its game-winning drive, to win 31-24.
Since then, Oregon's offensive line has gotten healthier and Marcus Mariota and the Ducks have been rolling. Arizona immediately stumbled against USC, but routed Washington State in Pullman on Saturday.
Oregon is No. 5. Arizona is No. 14.
"The overall body of work through nine weeks should mean more than individual snapshots from any given week," said Drew Sharp from the Detroit Free Press. "Oregon might wind up with the biggest non-conference win of the season, taking a good Michigan State team out to the woodshed in the second week of the season. That affords them a little forgiveness over a bad game against Arizona."
Maybe preseason perceptions are still in play? Alabama and Oregon were top-five in the preseason. Ole Miss was No. 17 and Arizona was unranked.
But in some cases preseason rankings don't get in the way.
Baylor beat TCU in Waco, Texas, with a stunning 24-point, fourth-quarter comeback. The next week Baylor lost at West Virginia. The Horned Frogs have won two straight by a combined score of 124-36, including Saturday's 82-27 beatdown of Texas Tech.
TCU (6-1), which has also beaten Oklahoma, is No. 10. Baylor (6-1), best win TCU, is No. 12.
TCU was unranked in the preseason. Baylor was 10th.
Time to see what the selection committee has to say.
The (hash)SECBias crowd won't like this.
LSU made the biggest move in the rankings this week jumping eight spots to No. 16 after beating Ole Miss.
Florida State did gain some ground on Mississippi State in the polls after the Bulldogs had a hard time shaking free from Kentucky in a 45-31 victory on Saturday. The Seminoles gained no first-place votes, but narrowed the points gap between them and the Bulldogs to 33. It was 47 the week before.
USC's latest excruciating loss, this time on a last-minute touchdown by Utah, dropped the Trojans out of the rankings.
No. 24 Duke, the defending ACC Coastal Division champs, is in for the first time this season.
Some huge games coming Saturday that most didn't see coming in September:
— TCU visits No. 22 West Virginia.
— No. 19 Utah at No. 14 Arizona State in a key Pac-12 South matchup.

Ole Miss starts writing fines for smoking ban

After several years of limiting smoking to designated outdoor areas, Ole Miss officials last August banned all smoking on university property. The smoke-free policy was introduced during the fall semester with warning-only citations, but fines have now begun, the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal reports. […]


The text is wonderful and full of little hidden gems. The reader is turrible... Yes turrible not terrible...turrible. She mispronounces so many common occult words it's hard to enjoy and her style is entirely robotic. How do you pronounce talis-man as tails-man? Or sacerdotal as saucer-dotal? Reader should stick to reading kids books or get a dictionary, way too many words mispronounced on this version.
The reader is almost unbearable to listen to!Interesting book, but I'll just look for it on Youtube instead.
very informative, keep up the good work.
Reader is good. Enjoy the book.
