Thank you for your question. You've submitted a single photo and you're
19-years-old and you're concerned about the appearance of your left eye. You describe
multiple folds and the appearance and you want to know if there is a non-surgical solution.
Well, in the absence of a full exam, I would just say that I can certainly give you some
guidance on what my impressions are based on this single photo. A little bit of background,
I'm a Board-certified cosmetic surgeon and Fellowship-trained oculofacial plastic and
reconstructive surgeon. I've been in practice in Manhattan and Long Island for over 20 years
and my initial impression by looking at this photo is that you have a condition called
ptosis. Now ptosis specifically relates to the eyelid and is often referred to as eyelid
ptosis. And in the greater likelihood that you've always had this appearance, it would
be most likely something called congenital ptosis. Now if it is newly acquired or acquired
ptosis, well then I would certainly advise you to very quickly seek a physician for examination
because that is unusual for somebody your age to suddenly have ptosis. But assuming
that it is something that you've always had and may have gotten a little bit worse,
I'll explain to you about what congenital ptosis is and what the solutions are.
To begin with, ptosis means droop and that eyelid drooping is due to a maldevelopment
or lack of proper development of a muscle called the levator muscle. Levator like the
word elevator is the muscle that lifts the eyelid. Now this muscle, when it doesn't
develop properly, it doesn't work as well as a normal muscle. And what does a normal
muscle do? It contracts and it relaxes so therefore this muscle will neither contract
strongly as a normal muscle nor will it relax as a normal muscle. Now when I do a ptosis
evaluation, it is a fairly involved examination. It's basically taking measurements of the
height of the eyelid, the amount of movement of the eyelid and other ophthalmologic indications
of the degree of eye function and just to get a basic understanding as to how significant
the ptosis is relative to how much it blocks your vision as well as to the degree of the
action.
Now you ask if there is a non-surgical solution and I would say simply that there isn't.
In the past, in the distant past, people used to try wearing glasses and have something
that is called eyelid crutch so that the eyelid will be pushed up with the glasses. Those
tend to not to work very well. That's the only non-surgical solution that isn't even
worth mentioning. There are situations where sometimes an eye drop for the purpose of pictures
can cause contraction of another muscle in the eyelid called the Mueller's muscle so
that the eyelid elevates slightly. That might be good for taking photos but in terms of
the more definitive solution, you are talking about a certain kind of surgery.
Now typically surgery for a muscle which has reasonable function is a procedure called
levator resection which is the muscle being shortened so that the eyelid is elevated and
then the alternative if the eyelid muscle doesn't work very well at all and the eyelid
is very droopy, there is a procedure called frontalis sling. And typically people understand
this because when the eyelid is drooping, they tend to raise their eyebrows to try to
keep their eye open. Well that surgery and that muscle that raises the eyebrows is called
the frontalis muscle. So what we do surgically is we attach the muscle, the frontalis muscle
to the eyelid using a variety of different materials, everything from your own fascia
which is from your leg to banked fascia as well as other alternatives such as silicone
and GoreTex™.
Now these are all determined based on evaluation consultation. So I would suggest that you
meet with an oculoplastic surgeon and learn about your options. I would also encourage
you to actually see an ophthalmologist. Get a proper eye exam and determine if there are
any other visual issues that can also be managed. Sometimes people, when they have congenital
ptosis, if it blocks their vision for an extended period of time when they are very young between
0 and 6, they can actually have had a condition called amblyopia where the eve vision doesn't
fully develop. So it is important that at least a proper eye exam will be done before
you undergo any eyelid surgery and then you can actually have more comprehensive understanding
of the eye health as well as the options for correction of the eyelid drooping.
So I am sorry that there isn't a non-surgical option but I think that it's important that
you understand the condition as well as what you should do to pursue the information you
need to make an informed decision. So again meet with an ophthalmologist, an eye doctor,
an MD who can evaluate your vision, evaluate your eye health and then an oculoplastic surgeon
who's an ophthalmologist, who specializes in additional training in plastic surgery
in the eyes and face.
So I hope that was helpful, I wish you the best of luck and thank you for your question.

Breaking news - 10 Must-Know Facts About K-pop Darlings TWICE - Duration: 7:48.
10 Must-Know Facts About K-pop Darlings TWICE
@@Twice perform during the live concert 2016 Incheon K-Pop Concert at Munhak World Cup Stadium in Incheon, South Korea on Sept. 24, 2016.
@@There may be a lot of competition in K-pop when it comes to being the latest trend, but no act has dominated 2016 as much as TWICE.
@@The girl group just celebrated their first anniversary, but they've already had a major impact on the Korean mainstream.
@@Since last October, the act has raced past other new rookie groups, thanks to the success of irresistible confections "Like Ooh-Ahh" and "Cheer Up." Affecting international relations -- namely, the Taiwanese presidential election -- and spurring viral trends, TWICE has been one of K-pop's most impactful acts this year.
@@The outfits latest single, "TT," is once again turning the spotlight towards the nine women. The melodic jam makes use of minimal trap elements to capture TWICE's distinct style, which has enchanted fans all over the globe.
@@There's no better time to learn a bit about the lively group of ladies. There Are Nine Members.
@@TWICE has the most members of any group under JYP Entertainment, one of the Big Three Korean entertainment agencies. The next-largest act currently under the agency is GOT7, with seven members.
@@(Nine appears to be a magic number for viral K-pop girl groups: Korea's most popular all-female outfit, Girls' Generation, also had nine members until recently.). TWICE Claims to Be "One In a Million".
@@South Korea may be overflowing with pop acts, but TWICE's unique calling card is holding to be true as they're rising from amongst the latest batch of girl groups to become one of the industries most-promising acts.
@@South Korea may be overflowing with pop acts, but TWICE's unique calling card is holding to be true as they're rising from amongst the latest batch of girl groups to become one of the industries most-promising acts.
@@JYP Entertainment unveiled TWICE through the 2015 reality show Sixteen. During the series, 16 of the agency's female trainees competed for spots in what was planned to be a seven-member girl group.
@@Jihyo, Mina, Jungyeon, Sana, Nayeon, Chaeyoung and Dahyun were all picked for TWICEs final line-up, but during the series finale it was revealed that Tzuyu and Momo would also be joining the group.
@@(Eliminated Sixteen contestant Somi is currently a member of the widely-popular temporary girl group I.O.I. They Are Super K-Pop Rookies.
@@From the moment TWICE entered the unofficial K-pop Hunger Games, the group saw global success. Their debut EP The Story Begins debuted at no. 15 of Billboards World Albums, chart while its follow up, Page Two, took the no. 6 spot.
In a little over a year, they've managed to show off their charms stateside at KCON LA, disrupt East Asian politics and start a viral trend in South Korea with the phrase "shy shy shy.".
Their Sound Is Defined as "Color Pop". The upbeat, quirky sound of TWICE's songs blends many genres in an attempt to create a unique style for the group.
While based in bubblegum pop, their high-energy singles have also been influenced by electronica, hip hop, jazz, rap and numerous other sounds. Page Two is the Best-Selling Album By a Korean Girl Group This Year.
Although 2016 still has a few months left, TWICE's second EP is currently the most popular album in South Korea released this year by a girl group.
According to JYP Entertainment, more than 160,000 physical copies were sold as fans came out to support the burgeoning act.
Male acts typically dominate physical sales due to fervent, largely female, fanbases, but TWICE has been able to surpass gender and age boundaries to win over South Korean listeners. They're K-pop… But Not All of Them Are Korean.
Diversity is a key factor in K-pop as a means to pursue markets outside of Korea, so only about half of TWICEs members are native Korean. Momo, Mina and Sana are Japanese, while the groups youngest member, Tzuyu, is Taiwanese.
Although she was raised in Japan, Mina was actually born in Texas, making her the group's only American-born member. TWICE Was The Result of Some Serious Delays at JYP Entertainment.
TWICE debuted last year, five years after JYP Entertainment's prior girl group, miss A. The lengthy stretch from the K-pop megahouse was unplanned.
As early as 2014, JYP announced that it would debut a new girl group. TWICEs Jihyo, Nayeon, and Jeongyeon were all part of that groups line-up, but the debut was canceled when two JYP trainees left the agency.
Each of the Members Has Her Own Branding. While not quite as typecast as the Spice Girls, the nonet has sharply determined identities that are visible through their music videos and live performances.
Each visual has featured the nine in incredibly stylized outfits, creating distinct on-screen personas for the members. In "Cheer Up" and "TT," TWICE donned costumes to highlight each of the member's individuality. Their Music Videos Are Addictive.
Earlier this year, "Cheer Up" became the fastest K-pop video to achieve more than 50 million views on YouTube after reaching the milestone in less than two months.
Earlier this week, "TT" overtook the title of fastest K-pop video to 10 million views, overtaking the record recently set by BTS with "Blood, Sweat & Tears" by a half hour.
Between the music videos for their three singles since last October, TWICE has achieved well over 200 million views: both "Like Ooh-Ahh" and "Cheer Up" have been viewed well over 90 million views.

Reputable Cherokee Reveals The Truth About Elizabeth Warren's Native American Heritage - Duration: 2:14.
Reputable Cherokee Reveals The Truth About Elizabeth Warren's Native American Heritage
President Trump has been calling Elizabeth Warren 'Pocahontas' for a long time now.
He does this to point out how she has lied and made her way through life with 'minority-status'
by claiming that she is a Native American when in reality she is not.
Liberals are now trying to call President Trump a 'racist' for using the term.
"Trump calling Warren Pocahontas is racist.
We kind of gloss over it at this point.
But this is the president being racist, wrote Sam Stein, senior editor of politics at the
Huffington Post, on Twitter.
Many commenters agreed.
"A sitting president of the US making blatantly racist comments…again.
He's a f'ing disgrace to our great nation.
A truly sick f**k," wrote one.
However as many users pointed out, if she is not actually a Native American, it is not
racist.
Even CNN is willing to admit that Elizabeth Warren is lying about this.
CNN's Jake Tapper wrote about the issue on twitter.
"Native American friend of mine on Trump calling her "Pocahontas": "It is a slur
for sure and broadly stereotyping Indigenous people."
Also, he says, "a citizen of the Cherokee Nation, I know they did a formal review and
she is not a Cherokee citizen," wrote Jake Tapper.
Do you think that President Trump is right to call her that?
Should Elizabeth Warren be punished for
her lies?

Positivity Challenge - What could be good about finding yourself homeless? - Duration: 2:37.
Hi!
so we are in the positivity challenge week
during this week I will be answering
every day one of your questions
that will try to challenge me
with finding the good sides
of very difficult and hard situations in life
I'd like to make clear
I do NOT underestimate the huge difficulty
of thess hard situations in life
these situations are definitely
NOT situations to wish for
what I am saying
that even in these difficult situations
you can choose not to concentrate
on the pain and the difficulty
but to try to distract yourself from these
by finding some good sides
and by trying
to make the best out of it
so the question for today
comes from Leroy Dickson
that askes me
what could be good about
finding yourself homeless?
Thank You Leroy!
so here are some positive sides
that I can think of
about being homeless
you don't need to hurry anywhere
sometimes it's nice to have some time off
from the pressure and the expectations
of the world
you don't have a house
so you don't need to worry
about property and utility bills
or about doing housework
you have a lot of free time
so you can use this time
to do things such as
going to the city library
read for your enjoyment
maybe even learning some new things
from the books
you can go maybe doing some sports
in the park
or if there is a beach close by
you can go to the beach and swim in the sea
and just relax
and I guess this hard situation
teaches you a lot
about people and about life it
it puts everything in the right perspective
and gives proportions
develops your creativity
because you need to survive somehow
and when you will get out of this situation
you will be a much stronger resilient person
I hope I answered your question
and that you liked it
please hit the thumbs up
you're welcome to follow me
by subscribing to my channel
and I hope I will see you in my next answers
to challenging questions
bye bye

Thoughts Become Things - Duration: 3:15.
Welcome to Network Marketing Pro.
My name is Eric Worre.
And many of us have seen the movie The Secret or maybe read the books As A Man Thinketh,
or Acres of diamonds or Think and Grow Rich.
And this idea thoughts become things is real.
And if I was to give advice to you or to any person wanting higher levels of success inside
of network marketing, is to do the following: think about your network marketing business
all the time.
All the time, when you are working out, when you are getting ready to go to bed, when you
get up in the morning, when you are in your car, when you are doing anything you are doing.
The more you engage your mind and you think about your business the more successful its
going to be.
I don't know of any high level successful person inside of network marketing that has
not done this.
Some people brag about this fact that they can, "Oh I can turn it off.
I can turn this part of my life on, I can turn this part of my life off."
I don't know about that, when it comes to entrepreneurs, entrepreneurs turn it on and
it stays on.
It's on all the time.
That doesn't mean you don't love your family, it doesn't mean that you don't care about
the people around you.
You do.
But your mind, your passion, your subconscious brain is always cranking, you're always thinking
about ideas, you're always jotting things down, you're always improving on some strategy that
you are working on.
You're constantly thinking about your customers, your distributors, your duplication, your
leadership, your presentation, your training, everything you can think of is constantly
rolling around in your mind and that process allows you to get better.
So my advice for you today is think about your network marketing business all the time,
and watch what happens with your success.
You are going to be amazed at how fast you grow.
That's our show for today ladies and gentlemen, my wish for you is that you decide to become
a network marketing professional, you decide to go pro, because it is a stone cold fact
that we do have a better way.
Now let's go tell the world.
Everybody have an awesome day and I will see you tomorrow.
Take care bye bye.

INSPIRED ROCKY. WE HAVE A SNEAK PEEK.
>> YOU FOLLOW BOXING? ROCKY.
WOULD YOU MIND TELLING MR. STALLONE THAT CHUCK IS HERE.

>> LET'S TALK ABOUT GETTING THIS FILM MADE.
WHAT DRAW YOU TO THIS ROLE? >> I'VE BEEN A FAN OF BOXING.
WHEN MIKE TOLLEN BROUGHT ME THIS SCRIPT, I WAS SHOCKED AND
EMBARRASSED I DIDN'T KNOW CHUCK'S STORY.
>> I DIDN'T, EITHER. I LIVED IN PHILLY FOR TEN YEARS.
WE ALL KNOW "ROCKY." BUT I DIDN'T KNOW IT WAS BASED
ON THIS GUY HERE. >> YEAH.
THE FILM IN MANY RESPECTS, SORT OF OVERSHADOWED CHUCK'S CAREER.
HE WAS A REMARKABLE GUY. A REMARKABLE FIGHTER.
HAD AN INCREDIBLE STORY. >> WHEN IT COMES TO FIGHTING IN
THE MOVIE, HOW MUCH OF THAT WAS REAL?
DID YOU WANT IT TO BE AS REAL AS POSSIBLE?
>> WE HAD A COUPLE OF BOXERS COME IN FROM WILD CARD EAST, TO
DO SOME BOXING ON RAY DONOVAN. AND THE GUYS WERE SPARRING
PARTNERS. THEY WERE ACTUALLY MAKING
CONTACT WITH EACH OTHER BECAUSE THEY SPAR TOGETHER SO MUCH, THEY
KNOW EACH OTHER'S TIMING WITHOUT HURTING EACH OTHER.
THAT'S THE WAY TO DO BOXING ON FILM.
BECAUSE THE MAN WHO PLAYED MUHAMMAD ALI AND I ARE SPARRING
PARTNERS, WHY DON'T WE TRY TO LEARN THE FIGHTS, PRACTICE AND
HE CAN ACTUALLY MAKE CONTACT. SO MUCH OF WHAT DEFINES CHUCK AS
A FIGHTER IS RESILIENCE AND GETTING HIT.
ALI PUT A WHOOPING ON HIM THAT NIGHT.
THAT'S WHAT WE DID. AND FOR THE MOST PART --
>> IT LOOKS PAINFUL. >> SEEMS LIKE AT THE END OF A
DAY OF FILMING, YOU -- >> I WAS A LITTLE SWOLLEN.
I HAD SO MANY PROSTHETICS ON, IT DIDN'T HURT.
AND POOCH HAS TREMENDOUS CONTROL.
>> WHAT'S THE MESSAGE YOU WANT PEOPLE TO TAKE AWAY FROM THIS?
>> FOR ME, WE HAD THE SCRIPT FOR ABOUT TEN YEARS.
IN THE COURSE OF THAT TIME, I HAD A COUPLE OF CHILDREN AND
I'VE BEEN ON A TELEVISION SHOW. THE ASPECT OF CHUCK'S LIFE THAT
I THINK IS A CAUTIONARY TALE ABOUT FAME AND OUR DESIRE TO BE
APPRECIATED BY THE ANONYMOUS MOB, RATHER THAN THE ONES
NEAREST AND DEAREST, HAD A PROFOUND AFFECT ON ME.
>> YOU PLAY SOME PRETTY INTENSE CHARACTERS.
CAN WE TALK ABOUT "MY LITTLE PONY" FOR A SECOND.
>> PROBABLY ONE OF THE MORE INTENSE CHARACTERS I'VE PLAYED.
>> YOU ARE THE EVIL GUY. >> I'M USUALLY THE BAD GUY.
I THINK CHUCK'S THE GOOD GUY. I HAVE TO DO SOMETHING THAT MY
KIDS CAN SEE.

Natural "Drugs" That Pharmaceutical Companies Can't Replicate - Dr. Patrick Quillin - Duration: 4:35.
Dr. Quillin: Think about this.
What you have is these beautiful, dark cherries, and they're sweet, aren't they?
Ty Bollinger: Delicious.
Dr. Quillin: And what nature is saying is, "Alright.
What I've got is some sugar here, and the fungus living around
us in the trillions wants to eat this."
And so the plant has to create its own protection.
It creates a substance called phytoalexins, and that is,
one of those is resveratrol.
People have heard about it in red grapes.
Grapes are another thing.
So the sweet thing in the grape has to protect itself.
So if a fungus lands on this, and it eats that phytoalexin, it dies.
It's sort of its own, it's a pre-drug, essentially.
The drug companies can't duplicate this stuff.
And that's the beauty of what we've got here, is that you cannot patent a natural
substance.
And that's why the 280 billion dollar a year drug industry
can't come up with something as effective as this.
Phytoalexins, in red and green fruits and vegetables, have been shown to be anti-cancer
the same way that they protect the plant against fungus.
Moving on here, we've got another.
This is another Surinam cherry of a different color.
This is mangoes.
These are green and small right now, but they're going to get to be the size of a
baseball or bigger.
And what you have is, there's at least 8,000 different carotenoids, at least 20,000
different bioflavonoids, in fruits and vegetables.
And they find that these things are extraordinary as anti-aging, antioxidant, anti-inflammatory.
There's what?
Twelve million Americans who are on the Vioxx, Celebrex drugs.
They have chronic inflammation, chronic pain.
Eat more fruits and vegetables.
As a matter of fact, there's a group, if you look them up, NORI, on the web.
Nutrition Oncology Research Institute.
They recommend nothing but fruit to cure cancer, a whole-fruit diet.
Now I'm not sure that I go on that enthusiastic, but I
am clearly on board with them when you talk about the
biochemical, scientific reasons why fruit and vegetables are going to slow down cancer.
These are Golden Dorsett apples.
Apples, if you look at it and do a little analysis of it, you find not much
vitamin C and yet, the ORAC score is higher than vitamin C, because it's a combination
of all of these substances that are in the apple.
Moving on over here.
Here we go.
Mulberries.
These are Oscar mulberries.
Ty Bollinger: Now this one wasn't ripe last year.
Dr. Quillin: You're right.
You came at a different time of the year.
So dark purple is going to have this rich mixture
of phytochemicals, bioflavonoids, carotenoids.
The medicinal value is beyond argument.
Ty Bollinger: Oh my goodness.
That's ridiculously sweet.
Dr. Quillin: Delicious.
And this is why I'm saying, we're not denying ourselves, people.
People think, "If I can't have my Twinkies and Coke every day."
No, this stuff is delicious, and once you develop an appetite for
it, what's fascinating is, the human tongue has got four sensors - sour, sweet, salt and bitter.
That sweet is for fruit.
The earliest food of humans was fruit, eggs and insects.
I'm not telling you you have to eat insects, but eggs and fruit are
good, and the sweetness is to make fruit taste good and feel
good in our body.
And then what the food manufacturers have done is said, "We're going to create all
of these substitute sugars," which are not good for you, and
now we're eating 140 pounds per year of refined white sugar,
which is killing us.
Obesity, diabetes, depression, heart disease, cancer, among other diseases that
come with refined sugar.
This is a different sugar.
What you find is, if you take the fructose and other natural sugars that are in
the matrix.
Matrix means mother in Latin.
And literally, here's this sugar sitting in the middle of this cell
membrane, and it's got all these phytochemicals around it, and fiber, and it works.
And if you take a different sugar, and take all the matrix away, which is white sugar,
corn syrup, now it's killing people instead of healing people.
Ty Bollinger: I'm glad you picked that, because I was about to pick another one.
Ridiculously sweet.

日本の好きなところ ベスト10 THINGS I LOVE ABOUT JAPAN (#5-1) - Duration: 10:43.
Hey, it's Charles. How's it going?
Today I'll continue my Top 10 Things I Love about Japan list. Last time we did #10-6. This time we'll finish #5-1.
It's been about a week since part one, so let's quickly review #10-6
#10 was vending machines, #9, was the shinkansen (bullet train) #8 was gorotto (premium granola),
#7 was the fact that old games are cheap, and #6 was izakaya (Japanese tapas-esque bars)
Well, let's get going with #5-1
#5: School culture
6 years ago before heading to biz school, I taught English @ 2 junior high schools in Hokkaido for 1 year
Sometimes, I taught at high schools and elementary schools as well
From that experience, I really came to appreciate many aspects of Japanese school culture
There's quite a few things I like. For example, compared to Canada, kids are quite well behaved.
Canadian kids can be pretty crazy, and there are a lot of mischief makers who disrupt the class relentlessly
Well, to be honest, I was one of those kids too. ^^;
I think school uniforms are a good thing, too.
Of course, there are families who are rich and those who are not so rich, and as a result I often find that
I often find that as a result of some students wearing fancy clothes and others wearing cheap or used clothes,
the highly visible financial disparity creates a gap between students in Canadian schools (agree?)
However, if everyone is wearing the same uniform, I believe that this gap is reduced
Next, I think it's good that students and teachers clean the school together each day
In Canada, there's a janitor in every school, so there are many kids who just throw garbage everywhere (oink)
However, if you're responsible for cleaning up the school yourself, you'll want to keep it clean, right?
Club activites are another strong point in my opinion.
Of course, there are school clubs in Canada too, but the # of kids participating seems to be lower.
However, I think that participating in these activities is important.
If education is just studying, that's no good. There are other things that are equally important in education
such as sports / activities wherein you hone your skills and work with others towards a common goal
Good education is not merely knowledge attainment but involves other skills development opportunities.
Also, the school lunches are amazing.
In short, that was a wonderful year in my life thanks to all the teachers and students around me.
#4: anime
From about 2-3 years ago, I've been watching anime quite a bit.
Of course, I watched Pokemon, Digimon, DBZ, Sailor Moon, Yu-gi-Oh and similar anime a lot as a kid, but
I've come to appreciate the good points of anime even more in recent years.
In addition to the vast number of interesting stories, the types of anime out there are virtually limitless,
and more so than in North America, there is a lot of anime that not just kids but adults can enjoy as well
Lately, I enjoy anime that explores deep questions about life & fundamental human beliefs, ideas, & attitudes
as well as inspiring sports dramas like Slam Dunk that will get you revved up and motivated.
Anime is enjoyed by people throughout the world, and an increasingly large number of people are finding it to be a
gateway to developing an interest in Japan. That's certainly a good thing, right? What do you think?
#3 Hokkaido (Japan's northernmost "main" island)
Of course, I love all the regions of Japan I've been to, but I think Hokkaido is probably my favourite.
As mentioned, I lived there 6 years so it's only natural I have a bit of a bias towards the place, but
please let me explain what I like about Hokkaido from my experiences there.
For me, Hokkaido has a bit of a different atmosphere from the rest of Japan.
For starts, the (colder) climate there affects the way of life, architecture, and availability of "traditional" foods
It's also much larger than other regions (and w/ a lower pop.), and streets are not narrow, so it's not as crowded
For a Canadian person (like me), the considerable space is quite pleasant.
Also, the economy isn't as strong as Honshu, which contributes to a more relaxed pace of life, and
I feel that this may be part of the reason why people are so friendly there, and why it's easy to make friends.
If there's anyone watching who's been to Hokkaido, what do you think about this?
Btw, the food is YUMMY. The ramen tastes a bit different, and you can eat mackarel more often than in the South
Another thing I like is that the summers are cool. I didn't use air conditioning even once when I lived there.
In conclusion, the atmosphere of Hokkaido is unique, and I feel a little like I'm in Canada when I'm there
If you have a chance, plz go to Hokkaido and enjoy the delicious food, beauty, and kindness of its people!
Most tourists go to Tokyo and Kansai, which are great, but I strongly recommend checking out Hokkaido, too.
Hmm, it seems that nightfall has come.
So I was filming close to sunset, and as you can see it's gotten quite dark, so let's turn on the lights.
#2
Pokemon
The fact that Pokemon makes it onto my list won't come as a surprise to anyone who knows me well.
Actually, I'll make another video just about PKMN soon.
This is because Pokemon has had a big influence on my life. No jokes - it has really impacted my journey
As I mentioned, I'll make another video in the next couple weeks so plz subscribe if you're interested.
Anyways, out of the multimedia franchises coming out of Japan, Pokemon has definitely stood above the rest.
Beyond being fun, the games, anime, card game, and goods, have also
exerted a positive influence on many kids as well as adults.
For example, I was terribly shy as a kid and hated talking to strangers, but if you want to become skilled at the
games or card games, it necessitates talking to others, and exchanging information as well as Pokemon.
After starting to play, I talked to many people, made many friends, and even got good at negotiating.
Moreover, I was so nervous in Pokemon tournament battles at first, but got better at handling my nerves
What I want to say is that thanks to Pokemon, I could overcome my shyness and find my confidence.
Along with the confidence boost, it's easier talking to people, I have more opportunities to make friends
and I've been able to enjoy a lot of wonderful experiences along the way.
In conclusion, I can't believe it's been almost 20 years since I first got into Pokemon, and I'd just like to
express my gratitude to Satoshi Tajiri, GameFreak, Nintendo, and others for spreading the franchise's
popularity across the world and making a positive impact on my life. Thanks!
Well, it's finally time for #1, and #1 is...
Japanese people
There's no mistake that my favourite thing about Japan is the great people here.
The people I've met so far have been kind, diligent, and they think carefully about those around them
If it wasn't for the great Japanese friends I met in Canada, I'm pretty sure I wouldn't be living here today.
But I made many wonderful Japanese friends in university; people I consider great friends to this day
Because of their influence, 7-8 years ago I decided to move to Hokkaido f
or 1 year even though I had never been to Japan.
When I lived in Hokkaido people treated me so kindly from the 1st to the last. I'm very thankful for that.
After that I wanted to come back to Japan every year, and I actually did do so as a tourist.
Over the past 8 years, I've met many great people here who have strengthened my connection to the country.
As a result, here I am today living in Kobe since February of this year.
So, thank you to the Japanese people who talk to me every day, and to all of my Japanese friends.
You've made a huge impact on my life, and more than anything I am happy to be able to call you my friends.
Please regard me kindly from hereon out as well.
Well, that's my list. What do you think? What do you like most about Japan?
If you thought this was interesting, please like it, share with your friends, and subscribe ^^
Well, talk to you next time!
What do you think about my list? Let me know! ^^

Why Sci-Fi Alien Planets Look The Same: Hollywood's Thirty-Mile Zone - Duration: 2:08.
I am exactly thirty miles away
from the intersection of Beverly Boulevard and North La Cienega Boulevard
in downtown Los Angeles.
This is part of the boundary of the studio zone,
a thirty-mile circle that sweeps through southern California,
and which explains why a lot of planets in science fiction look kind of the same.
See, if I were filming a movie and I asked my cast and crew
to meet me here, outside the zone,
I'd have to pay them for their time and mileage getting to the location.
But if I just walk a few paces this way, inside the studio zone,
then cast and crew get paid from when they arrive here, from their call time.
Filming inside the zone is significantly cheaper.
The headquarters of pretty much all the movie studios are inside the zone,
and so are a lot of places that you'll have seen in film and television.
Griffith Park and Bronson Canyon are well within the zone,
close to the centre of Hollywood, so that's where Adam West's Batcave was,
along with where the walls fell for Captain Picard, and along with, well,
pretty much any American TV show that's ever needed that sort of landscape.
And Vasquez Rocks, which have been used in so many TV shows, films and music videos
that there is a separate Wikipedia page just listing them,
is conveniently twenty-nine miles from the centre of the zone.
If those rocks were slightly further away from Hollywood, then who knows?
Perhaps Bill and Ted would have been killed by their evil robot doubles somewhere else.
Why thirty miles?
Union rules.
Hollywood is a union town, and long ago, it was negotiated
that thirty miles was "local" and anything outside wasn't,
presumably after many, many disagreements going back and forth
between union reps and the studios.
Now, exceptions have been added over time: the rules are complicated,
and I couldn't explain them all if I tried.
Production coordinators generally have that job.
But in summary: this thirty-mile zone, this TMZ,
and yes, that's where the gossip site got its name from,
this border is why, sometimes, it looks like the crew of the Enterprise
are boldly going where quite a lot of people have gone before.

Kids Interviewed about Haircuts and Baby First Steps! 🎤 - Duration: 10:06.
- We started last week by giving you guys a tour
that's something brand new to us.
- We decided to go with this one because,
well let's show 'em, let's show 'em a few reasons.
Reason number one is because these things,
this door opens, the kids can actually open these.
We also like that it has this lower step.
This car is also actually a V-6 engine,
instead of a V-8 like the EV,
so this one gets a better gas mileage, which is good.
And we like it that there's plenty of room.
And then it opens all the way up
and then a little magnet right there will click,
it'll hold it.
One cool thing is that it's got this little holder
for cell phones right here.
And it also has the Ford SYNC system,
so it connects to my phone via Bluetooth.
It also has some good compartments,
water bottle, cup holder,
a few different ones in the door.
They have these handles right here.
So all you do is pull up on 'em,
and then these back two or back four,
but like two sets of two, come out pretty easily.
So if you need lots of room in the back,
you can take off the back four.
And that's pretty much the van.
- Then Mom and Dad went to do something special.
- This place is fancy.
- It is fancy.
It's a little stressful, trying to order.
- It's fancy, just like my wife.
(lively dance music)
- We made a good breakfast for Mommy's birthday.
- [Tim] Zeke, from what I hear you came down
and wanted to start making a good breakfast
for Mommy, right?
(melodious music)
Was this your birthday present to Mommy today,
to make her a good breakfast?
- I also have another one.
- [Tim] You like it?
- I do, it's a very good breakfast present.
(babies vocalizing)
- [Tim] And the twins like it too.
- [Dana] Halle, are you ready for this?
(gentle enchanting music)
- Did you see the rainbow ones?
- [Dana] Oh those are pretty.
- What colors do we have going on there?
- Purple.
- [Hannah] I think they just shine and make the rainbow.
- What else?
- Pink, blue, pink, purple.
- My favorite part was the haircut too.
I got mine super short, kind of like Halle's.
And I chose rainbow scissors,
but I didn't choose the same shampoo,
because I don't like the smell of mint and Halle does,
so I don't use it.
I used the rose smell.
- It's fun because you can see yourself.
You can see what I'm doing, huh?
Is it getting hairy?
(laughing)
- [Dana] Should Mommy get the same haircut too?
- Yes.
(laughing)
- [Dana] All three of us.
Do you like it?
- Yes.
- [Dana] It's so much fun.
- It was really exciting to see what happened on Wednesday.
- [Tim] What happened Halle?
- We get to camp out.
- [Tim] No, we didn't camp out.
(laughing)
Aaay, ahhh.
- [Dana] Come on.
- [Tim] Here comes Chloe.
What did you find?
The way to cheat a little bit.
That makes it way easier, doesn't it?
Are you gonna walk in here?
Come get my hand.
Come on.
Aww.
Can you come see me?
- Go see Daddy.
(laughing)
Walking. - Can you do it?
- You can do it, good job.
(laughing)
- [Tim] Come get it.
Come get it.
(crying)
Aww, is she getting too tired.
Go to have her naps.
Come get it.
Whoa!
Come get it.
- I don't think you need that anymore.
- [Tim] Good job, Chloe.
One more step and you'll get it.
- Yay!
- Yay!
(clapping)
Another really exciting thing that happened that day,
was when Dana and I got to celebrate with a lady
who was taking a very big step in her life.
We were at Financial Peace University,
the Dave Ramsey class that Dana
and I have been co-leading together.
(upbeat music)
Woo!
She's cutting up her credit
That's a lot of cards to cut up.
Wow.
How many is that?
Five, six, woo hoo.
Everybody's cheering, clapping, yay!
(clapping)
Oh, another bag.
Wow.
- Now bag two.
- [Tim] Bag two.
(laughing)
Alright.
- The silliest part about this week
was learning about poop.
(laughing)
- This is when you know you just need to end school
because the kids are just giddy and laughing.
And rolling on the floor.
We were talking about what happens when you eat food.
- [Zeke] Poop!
- You know, and so everything you can talk about
that has to do with poop and pee and gas,
and farts.
So you can imagine how that conversation went.
(laughing)
- Poop.
- [Tim] This is when school gets fun, huh?
- Poop.
- [Tim] You kids, crazy kids.
Alright.
(laughing)
- You'll never believe it.
Chloe started walking in our backyard.
Chloe just took 10 steps.
- [Tim] 10 steps?
- Yes.
- One, two
- Oh, I see, is she gonna for it?
You're going for it.
Is she just going for it?
You taking your first steps out in the grass, huh?
Keep going, yay.
Yay baby girl.
(laughing)
- [Hannah] Mommy!
- [Tim] You're doing so good.
You're doing so good.
Are you going to come all the way to Daddy?
You gonna keep going?
Look at you.
Oh, you made it so far.
You're gonna go get brother Zeke?
- We worked really hard in our garden,
but then we had to stop this week
- There's no dirt in it.
We've had a lot of rain, and it's still been kind of cool.
So I called a couple days ago to a local nursery
to see if we can buy topsoil and compost mixture in bulk.
And they have it available, it's the best price
that we can get it in the area,
but with all the rain and the cool temperatures,
they can't get it out for people.
If we had our dirt right now,
and had gone ahead and started planting,
the soil is too cool for the seeds to do well,
and we wouldn't have a good crop.
So, it looks like it might be another month
until we're actually planting in here.
We still need to get the seeds, and plan out
where we're planting what seeds and everything.
So that'll be happening in the meantime.
- Friday's vlog was both happy and sad.
- I am cleaning out our minivan.
It's time to let it go.
We have a bigger van that suits our family a lot better.
And this can hopefully be a huge blessing
for another family that will continue on with it,
and bring little ones home from the hospital
in this van, like we did.
And (sighs)
man, I'm gonna miss it.
- [Tim] But it was also a fun day,
because what did we do that night for dinner?
- Cookout.
- Cookout. - Cookout.
- We did a cookout in our backyard.
- Yeah.
- [Tim] Was that fun?
- Yes, with fire.
- It was really fun.
(gentle music)
- [Tim] And then hold it over the fire so it cooks, alright?
You gonna do it?
And when it's all done cooking, you can eat it, okay?
That's what I'm talking about.
(yells)
Oh, are you getting smoke in your eye, Toby?
(crying)
Here, just move, Toby move over to the side, come this way
or close your eyes, one or the other.
Yeah, it's frustrating.
We've got baked beans,
we've got refried beans leftovers,
hot dogs, pickles, barbecue sauce,
mustard, ketchup, relish, all for a good meal outside.
This ends our daily vlogging for the month of April.
Did you guys have fun doing vlogs everyday?
- [Children] Yeah!
- [Tim] Did you guys like that?
Should we do it again, do you think?
- [Children] Yeah!
- Well, we wrapped up our last vlog
talking to you guys a little bit
about if we're gonna continue that or not,
and what that might look like.
(laughing)
