This soup is perfection. It's so easy and quick for a delicious weeknight meal - I use rotisserie chicken which saves an additional 15 minutes or so as the chicken is already cooked.
This is a delicious and easy meal that has become a weeknight staple. I follow the recipe exactly and even my teenager loves it.
As a busy entrepreneur I value a recipe that is quick, healthy and delicious. I love lemon and this soup is a very beautiful blend of flavours. A bit of a play on Greek Avgolemono soup.
Wonderful chicken soup with a refreshing change by adding the dill and lemon. We will be having this soup again and again.
Absolutely love this recipe. Quick and easy to make plus very flavorful. Everyone I've made it for loves it too!
This is a great recipe for leftover chicken. Yesterday I roasted a chicken on the big green egg and then boiled the bones with onion, celery, carrots, bay leaf, parsley and black peppercorns to make a stock. Today I used that stock and the leftover chicken for this soup. Loved it - super easy and flavorful. I'll make this again.
This was shockingly good for such a seemingly simple soup. The lemon elevates a classic chicken soup so much. I used a whole bunch of dill, added carrot and squeezed lemon into the pot as it cooked. Will become a staple. Delicious.
Thanks to a friend, I tried this recipe. Followed her advice and used 2 organic leeks and 3 organic celery stocks along with 2 qts of organic chicken stock. Since I couldn't find bone in and skin on thighs, I used 8 drumsticks 🍗. It was easy and if I say easy you can believe it, and very tasty. I also substituted 1/2 c rice since I was out of orzo. The lemon and fresh dill make it shine. If you make the soup a day or so ahead, a quick salad and supper is done... Enjoy! Thanks to Mary Francis and my friend, Diane.
This is one of my favourite weeknight recipes! I often make a double or triple batch to freeze. While this recipe is perfect as is, I usually use fresh rosemary instead of dill. I also make extra orzo ahead of time (mixed with olive oil, salt, pepper, and fresh rosemary), and stir it in when the soup is nearly done. If you're on the fence, definitely try this recipe!
I made this as written, except I used a gluten-free pasta. It was fresh and delicious. A couple of notes: I'm not sure you could use too much dill. It is fabulous. I made the broth, including chicken, a day earlier, so I could skim off the fat (I did not trim the thighs of extra fat before I put them in the soup). This worked very well.
I have made this a few times to rave reviews ... I even served this to a Greek family who asked for seconds and thirds.. always double the leeks and celery a lot more dill than listed and add the lemon to the soup before serving .
Well, anyone who has made their own chicken broth or stock, there aren't enough ingredients to label this as a soup. Watch out for the orzo. It soaks up all the liquid. I added Limon zest, a tad bit of rosemary, and MSG. And added carrots and more celery. I pretty much had to make my own soup out of chicken broth and chicken.
This is an excellent dish. Really good flavors. I'd suggest going heavier on leek and celery. I also added an extra tablespoon of lemon peel to the soup during the final few minutes of cooking.
Easy and quick to make and delicious- definitely a keeper!
I made this with a homemade stock and boneless, skinless chicken thighs. Overall, the flavor was great, but I found the added lemon at the end to be too astringent. My family didn't go for the celery in this recipe, so I'll substitute that with carrots or something else if I make this again.
Really yummy. I browned the chicken thighs first. Added lemon grass paste and sauteed garlic. I didn't have leeks so I used sweet onion.
Fantastic. My husband doesn't like soup as a general rule, but he loved this one. Light, lemony, delicious.
Took this soup to a neighborhood party and it was a total hit! Everyone kept talking about it and going back for seconds. So easy and delicious, I've made it several times in the last few months.
This was an amazing soup. It tasted like spring in a bowl. My entire family ate it and clamored for a repeat. Make this soup.
Love this soup!! It was delicious and was a simple way to get a taste of avgolemeno soup!!
Lovely and light. I didn't have a leek/celery so I used an onion and carrots. Light, warm and perfect for a chilly day.
This was a nice soup to eat when you are sick. It is light and soothing, but not as filling as I would have liked.
Not too sure what I may have missed here... with ratings like the ones before mine, I was expecting amazing things! I've always had trust in/success with well-reviewed and touted epicurious recipes as this one was, but unfortunately, this soup was nothing special in my opinion. I love cooking all sorts of soups, but usually favour those packing more pow/spice (coconut milk curries, tomato based, etc., almost always with a garlic-onion base). I was a little worried about the simplicity of the ingredients of this soup when I read them over, but was attracted by the reviews and my ongoing hunt for a killer lemon chicken soup recipe. I followed the recipe as it is, adding only a tad more dill as suggested by other writers. The family ate it up nonetheless, but I'm cooking for a house of hungry boys so not sure how much that stands for lol! I admit I may just have a taste for less delicate soups, personally. That being said, "Soup on" to those who have enjoyed it before me! I just wanted to add my honest 2 cents in case it helps another.
Delicious as written! Followed the recipe exactly except for adding more dill than the amount called for - probably closer to a full cup once chopped - but it did not overpower the flavors at all, as well as a couple of tablespoons of bottled lemon juice to begin with. However, the fresh lemon juice is an absolute necessity and brightened the flavor right before eating! Served with hummus and pitas and some stuffed grape leaves for a light, delicious fall meal. Would be excellent as a break from heavier winter fare, too. Bravissimo - πολύ καλό!

I've been hearing a lot about vectoring on this site recently and apparently it will make speeds of 100mbps possible on the current FTTC rollout. I currently receive ~70mbps on my upto 80mbps BT Infinity line. Would vectoring make any significant difference to me? And if so are BT likely to want me to reset my 18 month contract to take advantage of it?
Yes you will more than likely see an increase, not sure about the contract but I would happily say it will take more than 18 months to be rolled out.
AFAIK, Vectoring isn't even in trial yet (although it's starting this Summer, I think?) so you're not likely to see it for a while.
There's been a lot of speculation about what equipment will need to be changed to enable Vectoring on the current Openreach FTTC kit - new frames/line cards are going to make it less likely/further away. From what I've read, there's a real potential for 120mbps with vectoring but it'd also allow them to offer higher speeds to more people, which may play in their favour in terms of marketing etc.
There should be appreciable gains for most people. When you mention ~70mbps, is that the actual throughput you're receiving? If that's the case, you're likely on the capped sync of 80000kbps with a max attainable already higher than that, which means you'll see a benefit from the higher speed profiles alone, should they ever look at higher speeds with vectoring.
Yes, you probably should care. Even if you don't want to go any faster. Your neighbours want you to care too.
Why should you care? It might not be obvious now, but it probably will become obvious over time.
Back on ADSL, your biggest enemies were the distance from the exchange, and noise caused by line errors or interference.
Now you are on FTTC, and are getting 70Mbps, you've already shown that those 2 factors can be ignored. The replacement factor - that you're close to the cabinet - is less of a factor too. You're probably within 400 metres or so.
But your last remaining enemy, and now the biggest enemy, hasn't shown its face yet... it is the group of other subscribers that are being added to your cabinet over time.
As subscribers are added, the signals to and from their modems are picked up by your telephone line, and appear as noise to your modem. This is called crosstalk - and the more subscribers there are, the more crosstalk you will see. Some subscribers will have little effect on you, while some will have a dramatic effect. Your line is having the reverse effect too.
The added noise from crosstalk means that either you will lose some of your speed, or you will suffer from errors and packet loss. DLM will turn on interleaving & FEC to correct those errors, so you will see increased latency and a reduction in speed.
The effects are random, but mean that any line could lose 40-50% of its theoretical top speed. That might not mean much to people 100 metres from the line (where most people will still get near 80Mbps), but at 1km range, the drop can take people down to 25Mbps.
Well, with a better signal, you can do two things: a) Run at a higher speed, or b) Run at a lower transmit power.
So, if BT chose to, they could probably add packages at 100Mbps, or possibly even 120Mbps, and let you run at higher speeds. Trials in other countries show that 100Mbps is a plausible speed for properties within 300 metres, and possible within 500 metres, depending on the state of the copper wires. BT haven't run public trials yet, so we don't know how things will fare here.
BT could also choose to not introduce higher top speeds, but to allow modems to run at lower power, at least for closer subscribers. At lower power, it is possible that these subscribers would have even less impact on the more remote customers, especially if vectoring is less than perfect at removing crosstalk. The more remote subscribers would get a better signal, and get a speed boost up to closer to theoretical limit for their line.
For customers between 800 metres and 1km from the cabinet, vectoring could improve their speed from 25Mbps up to 40-50Mbps.
That's important to BT because somewhere in the region of 80% and 90% of the country are within 1km of their cabinets (if they have cabinets).
Finally, the technical problem to all this... Vectoring only works if it can work on all the lines from the cabinet in one go. For BT to get any advantage from this at all, even for a single customer, every subscriber on the cabinet must be vectored.
- It will certainly make a difference to your neighbours living 500 metres further away.
- BT aren't likely to reset the 18 month contract just to put you on vectoring.
- But if BT introduce higher speed packages (say 100Mbps) and you want to be on them, I suspect a move is likely to trigger a new contract.
But... it hasn't even gone to a live trial yet, and I guess that BT will want to try a lot of things out to balance between higher package speeds and lower power; between speed improvements for closer lines and improved range.
The only answer is to keep watching.
When you say that every subscriber has to moved to vectoring on a cabinet for it to work, will they all need a new modem to support vectoring or does the magic take place cab side?
according to ispreview BT see it as a speed enabler not speed booster.
Meaning they are not going to increase headline speeds with vectoring but instead use it to allow more lines to hit the full 80/20. Or at least get closer to it. This is a good thing in my view.
Also a ofcom document I read suggests 2013 for start of vectoring rollout. But 2017 as a end year.
I think it'd be disappointing if BT don't at least boost the speeds slightly.
I'd be surprised if they weren't keen on at least hitting or exceeding 100mbps to match or better Virgin's headline offering.
I assume the OR modems already support vectoring, or would with a firmware update.
The specification for non-OR modems and modem/routers is quite clear.
The modem shall support 17MHz Vectoring as defined in G.993.5. This requires the modem to be �vector ready�.
except they will already beat VMs headline speed with FTTPoD.
The vast majority of the magic happens in the cab for both upstream and downstream.
The user modems are needed to measure the analogue error seen on the line, and report back during initialisation. That helps the cabinet decide how to set up vectoring. This will need at least a firmware update to be considered "vectoring friendly".
It is believed that many modems of today's vintage can cope with this, but I haven't seen that statement expanded into proper details.
Even if they can't, I understand that the cab can cope with less precise (and slower) SNR details that are already seen today. I haven't seen what the real consequences of this are. Details of trials are almost impossible to come by except for those published by the equipment manufacturers, and they (of course) only want to show the positive spin.

Your line is having the reverse effect too .
 The added noise from crosstalk means that either you will lose some of your speed , or you will suffer from errors and packet loss . DLM will turn on interleaving & FEC to correct those errors , so you will see increased latency and a reduction in speed .
 The effects are random , but mean that any line could lose 40 - 50 % of its theoretical top speed . That might not mean much to people 100 metres from the line ( where most people will still get near 80Mbps ) , but at 1 km range , the drop can take people down to 25Mbps .
 Well , with a better signal , you can do two things : a ) Run at a higher speed , or b ) Run at a lower transmit power .
 So , if BT chose to , they could probably add packages at 100Mbps , or possibly even 120Mbps , and let you run at higher speeds . Trials in other countries show that 100Mbps is a plausible speed for properties within 300 metres , and possible within 500 metres , depending on the state of the copper wires . BT have n't run public trials yet , so we do n't know how things will fare here .
 BT could also choose to not introduce higher top speeds , but to allow modems to run at lower power , at least for closer subscribers . At lower power , it is possible that these subscribers would have even less impact on the more remote customers , especially if vectoring is less than perfect at removing crosstalk . The more remote subscribers would get a better signal , and get a speed boost up to closer to theoretical limit for their line .
 For customers between 800 metres and 1 km from the cabinet , vectoring could improve their speed from 25Mbps up to 40 - 50Mbps .
 That 's important to BT because somewhere in the region of 80 % and 90 % of the country are within 1 km of their cabinets ( if they have cabinets ) .
 Finally , the technical problem to all this ... Vectoring only works if it can work on all the lines from the cabinet in one go . For BT to get any advantage from this at all , even for a single customer , every subscriber on the cabinet must be vectored .
 - It will certainly make a difference to your neighbours living 500 metres further away .
 - BT are n't likely to reset the 18 month contract just to put you on vectoring .
 - But if BT introduce higher speed packages ( say 100Mbps ) and you want to be on them , I suspect a move is likely to trigger a new contract .
 But ... it has n't even gone to a live trial yet , and I guess that BT will want to try a lot of things out to balance between higher package speeds and lower power ; between speed improvements for closer lines and improved range .
 The only answer is to keep watching .
 When you say that every subscriber has to moved to vectoring on a cabinet for it to work , will they all need a new modem to support vectoring or does the magic take place cab side ?
 according to ispreview BT see it as a speed enabler not speed booster .
 Meaning they are not going to increase headline speeds with vectoring but instead use it to allow more lines to hit the full 80/20 . Or at least get closer to it . This is a good thing in my view .
 Also a ofcom document I read suggests 2013 for start of vectoring rollout . But 2017 as a end year .
 I think it 'd be disappointing if BT do n't at least boost the speeds slightly .
 I 'd be surprised if they were n't keen on at least hitting or exceeding 100mbps to match or better Virgin 's headline offering .
 I assume the OR modems already support vectoring , or would with a firmware update .
 The specification for non - OR modems and modem / routers is quite clear .
 The modem shall support 17MHz Vectoring as defined in G.993.5 . This requires the modem to be � vector ready � .
 except they will already beat VMs headline speed with FTTPoD.
 The vast majority of the magic happens in the cab for both upstream and downstream .
 The user modems are needed to measure the analogue error seen on the line , and report back during initialisation . That helps the cabinet decide how to set up vectoring . This will need at least a firmware update to be considered " vectoring friendly " .
 It is believed that many modems of today 's vintage can cope with this , but I have n't seen that statement expanded into proper details .
 Even if they ca n't , I understand that the cab can cope with less precise ( and slower ) SNR details that are already seen today . I have n't seen what the real consequences of this are . Details of trials are almost impossible to come by except for those published by the equipment manufacturers , and they ( of course ) only want to show the positive spin .

I was talking to a friend the other day and she was telling me that her sister-in-law’s son was having some problems and she asked me if I had any ideas. After further questioning it seemed we had a sensory integration issue going on here. She asked some really great questions on strategies to make life easier for the child and for his family as sometimes these reactions may interfere with daily activities.
My first thoughts were to explain that sensory integration dysfunction is a huge can of worms. However, those worms can be contained with various approaches. Not every approach works all the time and in the same situation, though.
So why open this can of worms you ask? Why not? Why not share some ideas that you can put in your “toolbox” to help a child who is sensitive to various inputs?
We know to wear our sunglasses if the sun is too bright or turn off the overhead lights and use natural light to soothe our eyes. We know to pull on those worn out sweatpants when we get home from a long hard day. We cover our ears when we know a loud noise is coming or we remove ourselves from the situation. We know to avoid situations that put us in close contact with others or places where we may get too many unwanted accidental bumps or shoves. We stay out of the coffee shop if our sense of smell is very sensitive or we try not to take a deep breath when driving by the hog farm.
Turn down the TV or stereo; be aware that strong bass is more obnoxious to the sensory system. Give the child the choice to put on headphones that drown out some of the noises. Classical music playing softly in the background is a good way to unwind for the entire family at the end of the day.
Make sure they have sunglasses that they can wear on a sunny day. Change some of your light bulbs at home to the soft white kind, turn off the overhead lights and use God’s light or use a lamp instead. Dimmer switches are great. You can slowly adjust the light to where it needs to be.
Keep the air fresh at home with open windows, ceiling fans and live plants, and avoid cooking strong smelling foods when the child is in the home. Children will most likely smell their food before eating it and that’s okay. But be aware of strong seasoning, what we like may be too much for their young developing systems.
Provide them with a “smelly bag”— a small breathable sack with a pleasant smell that they can pull out and smell if they need to be grounded. Don’t you find that smells can trigger memories or pleasant, or not-so-pleasant thoughts?
Find softer clothing that isn’t too binding. Avoid going shopping with them when stores are at their busiest. That in itself is overwhelming in so many ways. Light touch is not as comforting as a firm hug.
Remember going to the dentist and the anxiety you face over the unknown cavity or procedure you are not looking forward to? Remember the feeling of the lead drape they place on you for the x-rays? That firm weight actually calms the nervous system so it’s okay if you or your child wants to keep that on during a routine visit to the dentist. Doesn’t it seem that most of the time a strong, protective hug does the trick?

RV-surveys and direct imaging campaigns showed, that intermediate-mass main-sequence stars have more massive planets then solar-like stars. Even brown dwarfs have been found. In our study we concentrated on short-period planets for which a mass-determination is possible. The detection of close-in planets of intermediate-mass stars put strong constraints on the timescales of the formation and migration. We already have identified transiting Jupiter-like planet candidates with short orbital periods and observed these candidates with high-resolution echelle-spectrographs at various Telescopes.

The Middle East is a volatile region, experiencing violence, war, and political unrest that is far less experienced by the western world. Often sectarian in nature, these conflicts have established the Middle East as a region dominated by religious extremism. This belief drives prejudice against peoples of the same race, culture, and religion throughout the world. This information design project seeks to demystify "foreign" religions by examining their roots as well as examine how those beliefs play a role in government throughout the Middle East.
This poster explores the the Abrahamic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as they stand throughout the world and examines the relationships between them by examining their core belief structure influenced by their scripture. It points to the texts that are shared as well as those that are unique to each religion and identifies differences in content, tone, and interpretation.
Examining word usage within the Abrahamic texts reveals surprising results relating to both emotional and physical content often not in line with assumptions about their respective religions. Each piece of scripture was put through text analytics in order to decipher its emotional content.
The Abrahamic religions are grouped due to their shared belief that they are decendants of the Israelite, Abraham. However, each religion differs in what it accepts as scripture, which influences how each practices their respective religion.
The second poster takes an in-depth look at Islam and how religion and law influence one another. It identifies the five main schools of Islamic thought as well as how each interprets Sharia Law. Additionally, The various nations in the Middle East are identified by what degree religion plays a role in government.
When it comes to interpreting Sharia law, there are five main schools of thought. These are heavily influenced by how each determines what a valid source of law is.
This map shows each country's predominant school of Islamic jurisprudence, however the application of each school is less defined than political borders would indicate.
This map examines to what degree each country implements Sharia law. Some countries allow for the application of family law which dictates matters such as marriage while others allow for criminal law which can demand harsh punishments for law breaking.
Each school of thought follows a different order of succession when attempting to implement Sharia Law. The majority of cases are solved by looking within the Quran, the central holy text, and the Hadith, which advises Muslims on many day-to-day practices.

Commercial janitorial services offer a professional cleaning service which could be done on any kinds of commercial buildings. For companies and business places to effectively clean and upkeep their building and surroundings, they require professionals that specialize and know about the kind of properties they have so that they can provide the best relevant commercial janitorial services.
One important factor you need to consider is that the right cleaning tools and materials need to be used by your cleaners.
Commercial janitorial services offered different kinds of services and schedules some of which include a situation whereby you schedule your cleaning service to be provided on a yearly basis. Any commercial janitorial services chosen would take care of your cleaning throughout the year so that you don’t need to bother yourself calling on a new cleaning company every month.
The main distinction between commercial and residential cleaning services is that one company works in private homes while the other works in commercial properties and office buildings.
There is no doubt to hear that there are some commercial cleaning services that involve in cleaning residential properties. You may find them cleaning newly constructed homes buildings. They help remove debris, clean all of the window panes and make sure they get the home ready for their owners.
Talking about interior window cleaning, I’ll like to say one or two things about it. If it was so long you clean your window last, chances are that some tough dirt and dusts have been occupying on its surfaces which you may find very difficult or impossible if you intend to clean it by yourself as the homeowner who knows next to nothing about professional cleaning service.
Since you know that your two bare hands would not effectively clean it, you need the service of expert cleaners to help you do the job perfectly. You need to contact the commercial janitorial services, either the one special in window cleaning or those that render general residential cleaning service depending on the nature of your windows.
They usually come to clean at a time when the business is closed to the public also do some casual cleaning during the working time. For example, banking hall cleaning requires some light cleaning during work time.
Companies and Businesses outsourcing their cleaning to Commercial Janitorial services have to be more careful about what cleansers they allow the services to use when they clean their spaces than homeowners do. The homeowner only has to bother about chemicals causing reactions in their own family members, while a business owner has all of their employees, and customers to be considered. When choosing a commercial janitorial services. Serving Burbank, Sherman Oaks, Canoga Park, Chatsworth, Northridge, Encino, Tarzana.

The Gunners have struggled to find a tenacious midfielder in their ranks since Santi Cazorla, who is expected to leave the club on a free after failing to recover from a long-term Achilles problem. As such, Torreira has been identified as the leading target to fulfil the void after impressing his tackling and precise long-range passing with Sampdoria.
Meanwhile in the same tweet, Ornstein revealed that the Gunners are on the search for a new goalkeeper and it appears that Bernd Leno could be the leading target on their shortlist. The interest in the German had somewhat cooled over the past few weeks but a recent report from SportBild has suggested that the Gunners are on the verge of signing the shot-stopper.
Based on his performances in recent seasons, Leno has been equally error-prone when compared to the likes of Petr Cech and David Ospina but the German has still caught the eye of head of recruitment Sven Mislintat for the transfer window. The ex-Dortmund chief scout has been placed of the club’s transfer business for the summer as they seek to build a stronger base from the back.

The September 2018 "Get Outside!" issue of Women's Running is on newsstands now.
It’s time to get outside! The September “Get Outside!” issue of Women’s Running is dedicated to helping you take advantage of the great outdoors by exploring new trails (without getting lost), building confidence in your trail running and feeling more comfortable running outside solo. On the cover is ultrarunner Jenny Jurek, who came out with a book this year (with her husband, ultrarunning legend Scott Jurek), is mama of two and shares honestly about how her time outside helped her through a season of infertility, loss and disappointment. Pick up a copy to also read about the 21 best shoes for fall, time-saving tips and recipes (it is back-to-school season after all!) and hydration packs to fit every body type. Also in this issue, you’ll find our monthly dose of nutrition, gear, training, injury prevention, racing and wellness advice to help you get the most of out of your running lifestyle. We’ll see you out there!
After she and other experienced women runners logged countless hours testing out new kicks, WR web editor Meghan Roos shares honest reviews of the new-for-fall shoes for road, racing and trail.
Running outside on your own can be intimidating for some women, so writer Mackenzie Havey explains how to build confidence running outside alone.
In “Made for the Mountains” by WR managing editor Bethany Mavis, you’ll see how ultrarunner Jenny Jurek’s relationship with the outdoors shaped her into the woman she is today.
Since the great outdoors are at the front of our minds for the “Get Outside!” issue, we’re highlighting our favorite brands that are making a difference in the environment by using new technologies and new materials to either reuse recycled products, reduce their carbon footprint or keep more waste from entering the environment. Also in the Warm Up section, you’ll find new books for runners, a bucket-list race relived through Swedish mountain runner (and new author) Emelie Forsberg, expert-recommended time savers to streamline your never-ending to-do list, hydration vests for every body type, popular hikes on the Appalachian Trail, sneaker basics and the story behind Parkrun’s community-led, weekly 5K runs.
Find yourself in the woods—without getting lost! Ultrarunner Alicia Vargo shares her tips on navigating no matter where you are. Also in the Race Smart section, you’ll find La Sportiva’s new trail burner; a beginner’s guide to fun on the trails; what’s happening in the world of running in September; an intro to elite ultrarunner Camille Herron; expert advice on running on your period and a post-workout recovery time frame; motivation tips from three fellow women runners; advice for treating and preventing Achilles tendon pain; and strategies for making running a habit.
We’d like to think cookies can be good (er…better) for you when packed with protein and used as a post-run recovery treat. Try one of these three baked treats, which WR editors extensively tested (you’re welcome). Also in the Eat to Run section, you’ll find five “Weeknight Winners” recipes that each have six or fewer main ingredients; a sports nutritionist’s take on vitamin D deficiency; and a recipe for Apple Carrot Superhero Muffins from Shalane Flanagan and Elyse Kopecky’s new cookbook.
Our September 2018 issue is on newsstands now! Browse through the gallery above for a look inside our annual “Get Outside!” issue and purchase a digital copy of the issue here. Readers can purchase a full year of Women’s Running for only $19.95 (60 percent off the cover price!) by subscribing at this link.

When I was sixteen, I spent a year living and going to school in Germany. Among other things, I fell for the German language… what’s not to love about the words weltschmerz, geschwindigkeitsbegrenzung, ahnungslosigkeit and the phrase das ist mir wurst? But one of my all-time favourite German words is Ohrwurm; translation ear worm!
Earworms: annoying song snippets that get stuck in your head. Image credit: Sasha Wolf via Wikimedia Commons.
What’s an earworm? When you get a song — or typically just part of a song — stuck in your head. It’s an apt but somewhat unsettling image. I can’t help but picture a worm entering my ear and burrowing into my brain.
The term ohrwurm was coined in 1979 by German psychiatrist Cornelius Eckert. Researchers call the phenomenon Involuntary Musical Imagery (INMI). Other names include tune wedgies, sticky tunes and stuck song syndrome. The Italians call them canzone tormentone – tormenting songs.
Ohrwürmer (earworms) aren’t necessarily good or bad songs, but they are catchy and tend to be extremely annoying because they are hard to get rid of. Research has found 91% of people have an earworm once a week, and a quarter of people have one once a day. Fifteen percent of people say they find earworms disturbing.
Interestingly, music pops into our heads unexpectedly and involuntarily much more often than visual images, words or smells.
The likelihood of getting an earworm seems to come down to three things: the music, the person and the situation.
What makes a good wurm?
Researchers at the University of London have found under the right circumstances, most songs can become earworms. But it is much more common for a song we know to get stuck. And songs with lyrics lodge in our minds much more often than instrumental pieces.
Earworms last between about eight and fifteen seconds and tend to follow a musical magic formula. The key components are musical notes with longer durations but short intervals between the notes (think of playing keys that sit close to one another on a piano). That’s not surprising given those features also make songs easier to sing. Earworms are also usually predictable but with enough variety to keep you interested.
Classic earworm songs are Starship’s We Built this City, ABBA’s Waterloo and The Baha Men’s Who Let the Dogs Out?
Musicians experience more earworms than non-musicians — the act of practicing or performing music makes you more susceptible to getting a tune lodged in your head. People who believe music is important (even if they haven’t had any musical training) are more likely to get songs stuck in their head than people who don’t care as much for music.
And people suffering neuroticism and low levels of obsessive compulsion are also more likely to get frequent earworms.
Unsurprisingly, if you have recently listened to a particular song, it is more likely to stick in your mind. Similarly, if you have heard a song repeatedly the chances are higher it will become an earworm. And of course if it is a song that is easy to sing, the act of singing it yourself makes it more likely the song will stick around even after you’ve had enough.
Memories can also have a lot to do with it. For example, being in a particular place may trigger an associated song to come into your mind.
If earworms are something that plague you often, it’s worth knowing we are all more likely to get stuck with an earworm when we are tired, stressed or bored. Research has found waiting in a queue is a very common time to develop an earworm.
How do you dislodge a worm?
There are two ways you can respond to having an earworm: you can try to distract yourself or you can simply cope.
Distraction might involve tackling a crossword or sudoku puzzle or starting a conversation. Coping probably means putting up with it until the worm disappears of its own accord.
Research published last year found that for many people there is a clear winner when it comes to strategies to get rid of an earworm. But it’s not going to be fun if the earworm happens to be a song you hate.
You have to tackle your earworm headfirst and listen to it intentionally. Better yet: sing it. Out loud.
So if you hear me belting out some ABBA, you’ll know what I’m trying to do. Wurm, be gone.
Shhh, listen… can you hear it?
Ohrwurm – a newbie to me – loved this post, even if I’m left with one. I think this worm was inspired by the fact that I too went to school in Germany when I was 12. I lived with my cousins and went to primary school with them. There are many great German words to wrap your mouth around, but I really like the short, sharp, to the point ‘kaputt’. No translation does this word justice.
Oh yes, kaputt is perfect for many occasions! Whereabouts in Germany were you? And thanks for the Nina ohrwurm………NOT!
Well that’s important :). I was also in Bavaria, but in the gorgeous Munich which holds such a dear place in my heart to this day.
I like you already. A blog without a like button. YAY, for Marti bringing me hear because I heard the worm singing. It happens to me a lot lately when I hear a song, it plays on eight tracks.
Great to have you here Seeker!! Welcome and thanks for reading.
Besides I like science not I know anything about it but Science Matters. Thank you.
