Spring in Japan can only mean one thing: cherry blossom. insidejapantours.com
Sandwiched between the long, bitter winter months and the sweltering humidity of summer, spring is by far the most popular time for tourism in Japan - both domestic and international. The atmosphere at this time of year is infectious, with parks packed with revelers and supermarket shelves stacked with the latest blossom-flavoured snacks and drinks.
The cherry blossom (or sakura) "front" sweeps along the length of the country each year, beginning with Okinawa in the far south in February and working its way along Japan to northern Hokkaido in May. A variety of factors can affect when the cherry blossom comes into bloom: a particularly cold winter can mean that the flowers come out late, unseasonably mild weather can usher them out sooner, and heavy rain can mean that the trees drop their petals much quicker than otherwise. For this reason, the forecast is followed avidly throughout the sakura season!
Hanami
If you are lucky enough to be in Japan during cherry blossom season, it is de rigueur to head out into the local parks and gardens, bring a selection of picnic food and drinks and join the locals for a hanami - or"flower-viewing". It is during this period that the Japanese are at their most relaxed, and all public places take on a party-like atmosphere.
Typical hanami spots include city parks, landscape gardens, castle grounds and along riverbanks, and you'll find all of these areas buzzing with people throughout the sakura season. The blossom usually only hangs around for a couple of weeks - sometimes less if there is heavy rain on the cards - so you only have a brief window in which to enjoy the trees in full bloom. So popular are these parties that some companies will pay a member of staff to sit in the park all day, saving a spot for the office hanami in the evening!
Hanami can be conducted in the daytime sun or in the evening. Both are lovely, but we particularly enjoy the blossoms at dusk when lanterns hang in the trees, turning the canopy a glowing pink. You might also be lucky enough to spot a geisha or two entertaining clients under the trees!
History
The tradition of hanami has a history stretching back over many centuries, thought to have begun during the Nara Period (710-794), so by getting involved you will be joining in one of Japan's best-loved and most time-honoured rituals.
Though the term hanami has been used almost exclusively to refer to cherry blossom-viewing parties since the Heian Period (794-1185), historically the Japanese held hanami parties beneath wisteria and plum blossom too. Some older Japanese still gather to view the plum blossom (ume) today, as a more sedate alternative to the sometimes raucous hanami gatherings.
In ancient Japan, cherry blossom had great importance because it announced the rice-planting season and was used to divine the year's harvest. Its fleeting beauty, moreover, was celebrated as a metaphor for life itself - and it was praised in numerous poems of the era.

Tabloid journalism wiki
Tabloid journalism is a style of journalism that emphasizes sensational crime stories, gossip columns about celebrities and sports stars, junk food news and astrology. Although it is associated with tabloid-size newspapers, not all newspapers associated with tabloid journalism are tabloid size, and not all tabloid-size newspapers engage in tabloid journalism.
Notable publications engaging in tabloid journalism include the National Enquirer, National Examiner and Globe.
Tabloid journalism often concerns itself with rumors about the private lives of celebrities. In some cases, celebrities have successfully sued for libel, demonstrating that tabloid stories have defamed them.
Actress Zhang Ziyi loses appeal against Next Magazine
Taipei, Feb. 7 (CNA) The Taiwan High Court on Tuesday rejected an appeal filed by Chinese movie star Zhang Ziyi (章子怡) in a defamation case against a Taiwanese tabloid, saying that the magazine had cited another publication in its story.
It was the second time that the High Court was upholding the ruling of the Shilin District Court on the matter, which arose from a Next Magazine story in 2012 that alleged several Chinese officials had paid to have sex with Zhang.
Later that year, Zhang brought a defamation lawsuit against two reporters and an editor at Next Magazine, seeking NT$1.65 million (US$53,080) in damages and a public apology from the magazine.
However, in April 2015, the Shilin District Court ruled against Zhang, saying that the Next Magazine story had cited a report on Boxun News, an overseas Chinese community website.
The district court also said Next Magazine reporters had tried unsuccessfully to contact Zhang before publishing the story and that the tabloid had since issued an apology to her.
In December 2015, Zhang filed an appeal with the High Court, which upheld the lower court's ruling.
The High Court's rejection Tuesday of her second appeal is not the final recourse for Zhang as she can still appeal the case in the Supreme Court.
The actress, who is best known for her lead role in the megahit film "Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon," in December 2013 reached a confidential settlement in a defamation suit against Boxun News after the website alleged that she had received NT$3.2 billion in payments over a 10-year period to have sex with Chin's former Minister of Commerce Bo Xilai and several other Chinese officials.
The website also retracted the story, saying the "false reports about Zhang Ziyi should never have been published.".
