Classy designer Preeti S Kapoor showcases her "Royal India" bridal collection at the fifth India Bridal Fashion Week 2013 on Day 5. Her latest collection has taken inspiration from different Indian states – from hills of Kashmir to sands of Kutch, history of Hyderabad to Awadh. Each ensemble tells a different story and has unique vintage Indian embroidery designs.
The ramp was lit by a row of twelve lamps and transported us to the past. The designs represented the diversity of Indian culture, through different shapes, colours, textures and fabrics. Superb cuts, edgy shapes, exquisite embroidery and magical designs, all completed the vibrant collection.
Kalidar kurtas with gota work, saris in earthy tones, white silk lehenga, brocade work on sari pallas and intricate threadwork, were blended to form perfect combinations, resulting in some stunningly ethereal outfits.
The most eye-catching piece in the entire collection was the quirky choli style. With fine cuts and distinct designs, each one was a very strong fashion statement in itself. The colour palette that has been used is also varied and is full of shades like off-white and blacks, royal purples and reds, fuchsia and orange, saffron and greens. The vibrant mix and match of colours is another example of Preeti's impeccable creativity and design sensibilities.
The front row for Preeti's show was full of hotshot celebs and included some famed names like Vidya Malvade, Rohit Roy, ShibaniKashyap, Alvira&Arpita Khan and Tushar Kapoor.
The show ended on a very dramatic note, with Bollywood's newbie star AditiRaoHydari walking the ramp under "phoolonkichaadar", just like a real bride, in an outrageously glamorous red lehenga, full of heavy embellishments and a pretty choliwith orange dupatta.
Saree trends rise and end with time just like any other fashion trend. This year, the fashion market was abuzz with some fabulous styles but in typical colours. We could easily see that some colours were a favourite of many designers and Bollywood celebs. Here are a few of them-
Classic Red
In India, Red colour has always been associated with the bride and weddings. This colour gives a very ethnic appeal to the woman who carries it. Red coloured sarees are considered to be a major hit this season as it is a very glamorous colour. Team it with Gold or silver accessories and you'll be a diva for sure!

Champaign Gold
The contemporary bride, her female friends seem to love this colour. Some call it beige, some call it nude, and designers say it is Champaign gold. This colour is very chic and muted. With the right kind of makeup and accessories, you can look a stunner on your D-day or at any event that you are attending.

Neon colours seem to be the current favourite of almost every designer. Colours like Neon Green, Yellow, Pink and Peach are seen quite a lot in the fashion circuit. These colours are very cheerful and vibrant. They can lift your appeal by 360 degrees.
There are many shades of pink but the one shade that is a hit this season is – Fuchsia Pink. This colour is striking, girly, fun and very wedding like. This colour is mostly paired with a subtle tone like a beige, gold or red for maximum glam factor.

A saree is a synonym with the Indian woman's fashion but times have changed and so has the saree fashion. You have got married recently and are so not looking forward to wearing this traditional garment! But worry not, help is at hand! For one, the saree is no longer something worn by your grandmother, but one worn by style divas and Bollywood actresses. Blouses too have become…well…non-existent in some cases…and a retro high-necked in others. Go out shopping and we promise as the new bride – not only will you look traditional – but every bit as stylish as you could have dreamt of!
These days, designers put their creative best to innovate on some sassy styles of saree. Here are some of the most popular contemporary styles trending right now.
Print styles
Gone are the days when sarees used to come in a single print and design motif. Nowadays, designers are experimenting with printing styles as well. The latest trend in sarees is bold printed sarees, digital prints, neon colors, geometric patterns and abstract shapes. The market is currently flooded with a designer (Masaba Gupta) print. She uses bold, geometric patterns on neon base.
Wear these prints for a casual evening out with your new husband, or for a semi-formal dinner with family. You'll be the talking point and for all the right reasons.

Fabric styles
Cotton, Kanjeevaram, Benarasi are classics. But the market is flooded with chiffons, crepes, lace, georgette, mix silk and net. These fabrics are not only fashionable but also very easy to carry. There is a half- half saree concept that is very popular these days. Here, the skirt is made from a different fabric e.g. mix silk and the pallu are made of another fabric e.g. net.
It is Vidya Balan's favourite – so why should it not be yours? Wear this to show off your slim waist in chiffon or drape the velvet pallu to hide slightly broad shoulders. Wear this saree for an evening out with your hubby or a lunch date with some aunties – you'll get nods of approval and envy in this outfit!

Blouses – Oohhh!
Earlier women used to go for only a U- cut, V- cut or Square –cut necklines for their saree blouses. Now, the saree blouse designs have greatly evolved. From bikini blouse to halter, mega sleeves to tube top, backless cholis to bandeau style, there are plethora of blouse design options. Some women wear bandhgala tops, angrakhas and corsets as blouses.
Are you a new bride? Do wear the retro bandhgala blouse for a very formal dinner or get together. Wear this blouse in winters or at weddings – make a splash and be noticed and marked as the style diva you'll be.
And finally…unconventional draping style
Not long ago, we all knew just three-four ways to drape the saree i.e. by only changing the pinning style of the pallu. Now, there are over a hundred ways to drape a traditional saree. Women drape in on top a trouser, jumpsuit, skirts. Also a new form of saree gown is catching up on the charts.
Try out this style for your office get together where the formal traditional look rules – and you create ripples by giving tradition such a lovely twist! Wear it at your own wedding reception if you'd like with a heavy neckpiece and minimal accessories – go ahead and dare!

Saris were always a favoured option with the classy elite – and now with the kind of styles and blouse options trending and available, the choices just got more exciting, hot and happening!
From street to Skype, is the new trend that retailers are now following to lure the tech-savvy generation to buy their wedding saris. The increasing usage of social media and the Internet, growing competition and the radical shift towards online shopping, has motivated the retailers in Chennai to introduce sale of wedding saris on Skype.
Big retailers like Nalli, Sri Palam Silks and RmKV have understood the importance of online selling and have revamped their website to support e-commerce. From online sales and emailing pictures to the bride and their family, to conducting conference sales calls as well as promoting inter-store connectivity, the retailers are doing it all to build up a client base, not only in India, but abroad as well.
Obviously there are some challenges being faced by the retailers- it is more time-consuming, takes up a lot of effort, they need somebody who understands technology and can email pictures and conduct those sales /conference calls. Moreover, only limited designs can be put online or shared over Skype, there can be up to a 20% colour difference in case of silk saris so they have to use high-resolution images to give a more accurate idea of the intricate designs and colour of the wedding collections.
But there are serious benefits nonetheless. Statistics show that there has been a substantial increase in the online sale of wedding saris since last year. Brands are building their customer base online, both nationally and internationally. They are mainly benefitting as they can reach a large number of customers, cater the international market as well, saving the physical effort of displaying saris as clicking pictures is a one-time thing. Also, in India, buying wedding dresses/saris is usually a family/collective decision, so retailers also share the pictures of their collections with the family of the bride, which often increases their sale, as someone in the family may like a particular design, in case the bride doesn't.
From books, gadgets, casual clothes and now the wedding dresses, e-commerce is spreading its tentacles in all the domains and making the life of the modern consumers much easier, in this fast-paced life. Let's see what more do we get to buy online.
Are you getting married anytime soon? Or maybe you've just got married and post wedding,this is the first time you are going out, in the festive season, meeting important relatives for the very first time? We suggest you leave the boring U- cut, V- cut and Square cut saree blouse behind and try the following styles that'd surely transform you in to a diva.
How about making these a part of your bridal trousseau – feeling traditional or all set to party? Make your choice, or just get them all made anyways!
Go coy and bridal like in these full sleeve blouses, or create a sensation in the bra blouse! Either ways as a style goddess, you will score full marks.
Velvet Full Sleeves
This style is a trademark of ace Bollywood fashion designer Sabyasachi. This style has a full sleeve blouse in velvet fabric and has white thread embroidery on entire sleeves. To make it look more fashionable, women opt for embellished embroidery at the neck area. This lets you skip the neck jewellery all together.

Full Sleeves
Diwali comes when there is a nip in the air, so if you feel cold already, you can opt for a full sleeve blouse in silk, sheer fabric or even lace. If you want to add bling then you can have slightly shiny lace sleeves.
Metal work Blouses
This type of blouse has a metallic finish and an edgy appeal to it. You just need a slick hairstyle and a monotone saree to go with it. You can skip the jewellery with such type of blouse.
Age old Halter
Halters never go out of fashion. If your saree has moderate embellishments, you can opt for a halter blouse in shimmer material to add a spark to your look.
Bra Blouse
This type of blouse is thicker than a noodle strap blouse and thinner than a sleeveless strap blouse. Once you choose to go for it, make sure you don't choose a flashy colour or beige/nude or primary bra shades. You can opt for a shimmer bra blouse as a safe option.
Neon Blouse
If you want to keep it simple yet stylish this festive season, then go for aNeon blouse. Neon is in this fashion season and if you are up for an experiment then go for it!

Find that tailor, spend a few extra bucks to look like a million dollars in any of these blouses. And if you or your husband are feeling extra indulgent – walk into the Sabyasachi or Manish Malhotra boutique and have them make these. Especially for you!

a prevalent look in every state and their versatility allows it to be sported at every occasion.
Net saris are the latest trend!
Whether a Kanjeevaram or heavy brocade sari; occasions may fall short but not their types. One such trend which has created a rage in the market is the net sari. They are sheer, heavily worked and look perfect to be donned on an auspicious occasion.
The trend of the net saris made it at the weddings after the actresses of the famous K-series in India sported some of their looks. They are graceful, stunning and give a feel of panache to the wearer, as the bride or the special guest swaying down the central aisle to greet the couple. Designers like Rana Gill, Neeta Lulla, Rohit Bal were some of the early designers to have adapted this style and given a revolutionary change to it with half sari and lehanga sari.
A Neeta Lulla net sari
Net saris are the latest trend!
Take care when wearing net sari as they are prone to tear keeping in mind their net work.
It is advised to be pleated well and not let loose. Not only will it fluff up and feel like you've put on weight, but it can get snagged somewhere.
Jewellery or accessories if sharp are best avoided rather pearls and round cornered pieces go best with this attire.
Designer Talk!
Talking of the net sari trend Designer Payal Jain stated, "Sari was one such discovery made by the Indians which stayed long in the country. The net version of the sari is one of the superlative styles and the most picked up because of its gracious flow and transparent feel. They are best worn in bright colours with heavy gold and silver motifs to accentuate the beauty of a woman."
So with the wedding season at its peak the net sari are the best investments one can do to complete their wardrobe.

I've been immersed of late in another search into the past. Sue's aunt by marriage, "aunt M", now 83, was adopted as a baby. All we knew was her mothers name and the fact that she had returned from Canada when aunt M was just 3 months old.
The ultimate, long stretch objective was to discover who aunt M's father was. People in the family, particularly aunt M's grandson, wanted to know where they came from.We started the search with just a name, Annie Martin, and a simple fact: 'aunt M and her mother came back from Canada in 1930′ From that simple beginning we discovered a tale uncovering:-
- a family of miners and domestics from North Wales some of whom moved to Durham,
- relatives going back to the mid 1700's,
- a millionaire umbrella manufacturer from Manchester,
- a 70+ man taking advantaged of his domestic servant and fathering 3 children with her, one of whom was aunt M's mother,
- disappearing money and property equivalent to over a Million pounds today,
- a peep behind the curtains of life in a Victorian seaside town,
- family emigration to Canada,
- the effects the great depression of the 30's made on the family,
- a widow who did well for herself and her family in Toronto, Canada,
- the internal migration of a Cornish family to booming Manchester of the 1800's,
- love and loss in Lancashire,
- aunt M's mother marrying and having 2 children – aunt M's half sisters,
- lifelong spinster and bachelor-hood in Lancashire,
- a brace or more of illegitimate children,
- adoption out of the family and inwards too,
- and finally, at the end of the line, bureaucratic difficulties surrounding aunt M's mother's grave .
We finally found aunt M's mother, deceased of course but we also found aunt M had 2 half sisters both sadly dead. The last one, "J" , only passed away in November 2013. At the time she was looking into her family history too. It's a tragedy we didn't start this earlier.
Aunt M also had 2 uncles she knew nothing about. We revealed their lives in Canada and discovered one returning back in the UK and making a life in the Greater London area.
But best of all we discovered the best friend and end of life carer of aunt M's half sister J. We travelled to the coast in Lancashire to meet her . We returned with a suitcase full of letters and pictures including some of aunt M's mother. We also found aunt M's mother's grave.
Sadly we never found any sign of aunt M's father; not even gossip. Perhaps we never will but the secret is out there in Canada somewhere. Maybe he will come to light.
We have a couple of research "hooks" dragging in the Canadian ancestry waters hoping for a bite and we have a lead on a possible 'living' relative of one of aunt M's newly discovered uncles. So the search is not totally closed. It's now more wait and see.
Update 9th Feb 2014.
We have now discovered a living cousin of aunt M. He lives alone in London. He has shone a light into the past showing stories of his dad, a jockey, riding horses and winning races in Canada, America and France. Stories of how a solicitor committed fraud against the family cheating them out of their inheritance and being jailed for it. And he has sent lots of pictures, some from Canada.
This research has been an adventure. One which has captivated, consumed even, for over a month and one which must now be put down.

Research on International Human Rights Law
Few topics get more attention around the world than human rights, but many students are uncertain about the source and scope of those rights.
If you are researching the topic, the library's research guide is one starting place. As with most international law topics, consulting a good secondary source, such as a leading treatise or the Max Planck Encyclopedia of Public International Law, is often a great way to identify primary documents and learn about enforcement mechanisms.
The most prominent arena for international human rights law is the United Nations apparatus, which includes:
- the Human Rights Council, an intergovernmental committee of 47 UN member states that is responsible for promoting and protecting human rights around the world;
- the High Commissioner for Human Rights, an official who spearheads the UN's human rights efforts and leads an office within the UN's permanent bureaucracy; and
- the "Human Rights Bodies," or enforcement mechanisms that include the treaty bodies, i.e., committees of experts who monitor State parties' compliance with their obligations under multinational treaties, such as the Convention Against Torture and Other Cruel, Inhuman or Degrading Treatment or Punishment
A relatively new UN process is called Universal Periodic Review, which provides a regular assessment of every UN member state's human rights record.
Other human rights systems include the regional systems in Europe, the Americas and Africa–each with its own conventions, commissions and tribunals.
Many sources provide ongoing coverage of human rights developments around the world, including non-governmental organizations (NGOs), such as Amnesty International and Human Rights Watch; blogs, such as Human Trafficking Search and Immigration Prof Blog; news agencies of the UN and U.S. State Department (and the Department's Human Rights Reports); and international news sources, such as the BBC and Reuters.
Other research guides that may provide relevant guidance include our guides to Treaty Research, Refugee & Asylum Law and International Courts & Tribunals.

DENAIR, Calif. (AP) - Rail authorities are working to repair damage on Amtrak's popular San Joaquin route after a freight train derailed in the Central California town of Denair.
Passenger service has been disrupted between Modesto and Merced since the Sunday afternoon accident. Passengers are being bussed one stop between Modesto and Merced.
Ten freight cars went off the track and crashed into a self-storage facility. No injuries were reported.
The Modesto Bee reports workers at the site of the derailment are preparing rail siding that would allow trains using the busy route to go around the damaged track and cars.
Investigators are still trying to determine the cause of the accident. About 40 trains, including 12 Amtrak trains, pass over the tracks a da

A little paradise!
My husband and I with our 2 girls (1 and 4 years old) traveled for a month across Costa Rica last year and the last week, we spent it to Stef Surf Condo...what a perfect way to finish our exceptional vacations! The place is awesome, Greg and Gladys, the owners, are so welcoming and always there to help....they make our stay just perfect! The location is perfect to visit around...there is a lot to do within 1-2 hours drive, so you can do a day trip and come back to the comfort of your rental home, jump in the pool and have a nice dinner on the patio! The condo are within walking distance of the beach and there are a lot of other beaches 5 minutes away by car. We really enjoyed our stay and are looking to come back soon :)
World Traveller
What I fantastic time I had spending a week in this wonderful, beach front property in Portrero! It started with driving down the scenic road Liberia-Portrero; the road in great condition, something not quite typical for CR. I'm really bad with the directions and keep getting lost but in this case, I quickly found the property; it was so easy to get to, on a main road, next door to the quite well known Buena Vista hotel. When I reached the house, my apprehension that it would not match the posted pictures, as it often happens, completely disappeared. It actually looked much better! Fresh looking, immaculately clean, tastefully furnished, with nice pool and beach front gardens! I made it my home very quickly:) Parked my car in the enclosed garage, through my bags in the fabulous master BR with views of both the Flamingo and Portrero beaches, grabbed my towel and jump in the ocean for a nice, long swim. Since the garden patio was so lovely, I invited friends who were staying in Flamingo beach to visit me for sunset cocktails. It was magical to see the sun setting down to a speck, blasting light over the bay. The next few days we explored our Portrero beach and few more beaches around. I highly recommend La Penca and La Dantita with its emerald waters and white sand surrounded by lush jungle, within just 10-20 min drive from Portrero. For lunch and dinner we went to Flamingo and Tamarindo, a little bit of driving around brought an additional sense of adventure. It was hard to leave the property after so much fun and great moments. The only consolation was that for sure I was to come back and bring friends and family!
LOOK NO FURTHER....location is everything !!
This is a popular part of town, lots of tourists (even though it was low season) in the area and we can see why they rent Right Here. It's close to just about everything you'll need (Super 2001- a local grocery store, Tico Cafe- a great place for really good coffee and breakfast/ pastries, surf shops that rent surf boards for $5, the bank for exchanging money, La Baula- which the most beautiful restaurant with great pizza and fruit drinks, if you are ok with walking about 10 minutes more you can try Soda el buen comer- local Tico Food for cheap and our favorite was Kahiki's-closest to the beach and great pineapple pork burritos-the best we've ever tasted). There are so many other restaurants we ate at too during our two weeks but these left a lasting impression and were all close to the rental. You must try Spout too if you have car. Great Lunch place. All of this made the location simply perfect. For us, the kitchen was great for small meals and storing leftovers, but you can easily do much of your cooking here- the kitchen was adequately stocked and a pleasure to fix food in with the beautiful granite. The owner and RPM (the management company) were more than accommodating. The VRBO description is accurate -the pictures don't really depict the beauty of the the actual town home- the home is decorated quite well with locally inspired decor-just lovely. Everything was well maintained and clean-the cleaning staff will refresh your towels and linens and were accommodating when needed. We were there to explore and have fun in and around Tamarindo. This location gave us an opportunity to enjoy the best of everything we had on our Itinerary. We were here during low season and though it rained some, staying in was comfortable and pleasurable and an excuse to relax and enjoy the beauty of the home itself. The internet was reliable to check emails and post pics. I think we slept too good here. The location was away from the hustle and bustle, so quiet and peaceful. Most morning the only noise you'll here is birds and monkeys. Security/upkeep of the property was great. We parked our car just outside the complex and it was safe- we always felt safe, even walking late at night, back home from dinner -it helped to have headlamps, some of the streets are dark. The property is taken care of quite well-you won't be disappointed. The location, to us, came pretty close to perfect and that's what actually made the vacation a true Costa Rican Experience.

Anna Sui Fall 2014: Bobbed and bubbly
The inspiration: Given the old-timey jazz music, and the models' plastered-down bobs, it seems clear that Anna Sui was preoccupied with the 1920s, whether in Hong Kong, Shanghai or even the Chinatown neighborhoods of Los Angeles or San Francisco
The vibe: Eclectic, sassy, maybe even a little dangerous, with a mix of patterns that's busy-busy-busy-busy-busy-busy-busy-busy.

Clover Canyon Fall 2014: Celtic enchantment
The inspiration: In a word—Ireland. Clover Canyon's program notes featured a poem by William Butler Yeats ("Faeries, come take me out of this dull world / For I would ride with you upon the wind…") and praised the greenest of greens, the country spires and the stouthearted spirit of the Irish. No wonder the line is called Celtic Enchantment.

Marchesa Fall 2014: Firepower
Inspiration: "Visions of billowing bonfires sweeping through the Scottish Highlands," was the inspiration for Marchesa designers Georgina Chapman and Keren Craig's runway according to notes.

Michael Kors Fall 2014: The big easy
Inspiration: "Big Sur, Big City," said program notes — the notion being an easy, breezy Cali casual melded with the polish and sophistication that is Kors' calling card. The vibe: Antennae were up for this big day show at Spring Studios set on Varick Street near the Holland Tunnel. Kors has been an anchor at the tents for many years and his defection to the downtown space...Read more »
Oscar de la Renta Fall 2014: Tale of two pretties
Inspiration: The designer didn't spell it out but there was a clear edge to the collection divided into two beautifully executed parts — swanky but slightly toughed up daywear and glam, frothy looks for evening. The former was new for de la Renta, modern and a breakout from a more conservative ladies-who-lunch looks…think a studded leather suit that clung to every curve.

Vera Wang Fall 2014: Dark dames
The inspiration: "Dark romance … a hint of mystery … easy allure." These were the succinct phrases Vera Wang used in her program notes to describe her new collection. We might also add "girlish goth" to the mix.
The vibe: Dark and mysterious. Wang offered a collection for the gal who likes to speak her mind — we loved the scarab sweater with the message "U bug me" — yet still flaunt her feminine...Read more »
Narciso Rodriguez Fall 2014: Loose and laid back
The inspiration: Narciso Rodriguez seems interested in volume this season — but not huge, bulbous amounts of it, the likes of which we saw a few seasons back from other designers and which had regular shoppers scratching their heads. (How are those of us weighing in at, um, more than 100 pounds actually supposed to wear that?) This volume is different — it's just the slightest amount of fullness,...Read more »
Marc by Marc Jacobs Fall 2014: BMX chicks & sexy ninjas
The inspiration: New co-designers Luella Bartley and Katie Hillier -- who are the first NOT-Marc-himself creatives to helm the brand (he still oversees, but handed them the reins last year) -- clearly had moto-cross, BMX racing and X Games glory on the brain.
The vibe: Tough. Gutsy. Playful. Energetic. The line is supercharged with color, sporty separates and we-mean-business chunky footwear...Read more »
Donna Karan: An emotional 30th anniversary / Fall 2014
Inspiration: A mesmerizing film by Steven Sebring played on a giant screen backing Donna Karan's runway on Wall Street depicting abstract dancerly bodies. In her notes, Karan said, "I needed to express a woman's soul and spirit from the inside out." But, it's fair to say that Karan used her own iconic pieces as inspiration – these celebrated and updated – all beginning with the bodysuit.

Reem Acra Fall 2014: The power of pretty
The inspiration: Girlie girls, and the charity luncheons or red carpet events to which they get invited.
The vibe: Serene glamour, whether you're drawn to the iridescent feathered tops, or the trophy-like gold beaded column dresses.
The lust-o-meter: High for the "frosty pink" wool coat with brown leather belt that resembles a split-rail fence. Higher for a cardigan embroidered over...Read more »

Just a small note for anyone who's looking to use an ADSL modem for their broadband connection and needs to use it with a static IP (like Be* Broadband).
DO NOT get a Linksys AM200 Annex A modem..
It seems that despite it being reported back in January of this year that nobody has corrected the issue of IP's being reported as invalid if the first IP block doesn't have 3 digits in it.
Yup... an IP of 10.x.x.x will not work whereas something like 192.x.x.x will be accepted. Same with the gateway and DNS settings.
Strikes me this n00b error extreme and just highlights why I avoid Linksys like the plague.. Idiots!

News for Iran
|Cell phone effects: Testicular proteome modified
|Created: 11 Sep 2014
The controversy over the potential health effects of electromagnetic radiation associated with cell phones has been fuelled by new research originating in Iran - A team of scientists from Shiraz University has found that electromagnetic fields change the proteome of rat testes, with implications for fertility.
There has been conflicting evidence over the last decade on the harmful nature of these EMFs. For instance, some studies have suggested that they do not affect the brain whereas others have found the opposite. Most notably, a recent study from Greece revealed that 143 proteins in the mouse brain were affected, including some from the regions dealing with learning and memory. The same type of radiation is emitted by wireless transmitters and wireless computer equipment, so the effects might be more widespread than first anticipated.
Now, Masood Sepehrimanesh, Nasrin Kazemipour, Mehdi Saeb and Saeed Nazifi have turned their attention to the testis, comparing the protein expressions from animals exposed to an EMF with those that were not exposed. Their main focus was on proteins that were induced or completely inhibited, rather than those which underwent a partial change in expression.
Lab rats exposed to EMF
Over 30 days, ten rats were exposed daily to 900 MHz radiation for 1, 2 or 4 hours and ten others were sham exposed under the same conditions in the cage. After this period, they were sacrificed and the proteins extracted from the testes.
The protein components in the extracts were separated by 2D SDS-PAGE under a protocol designed to minimise technical variations. Each testis sample was analysed in triplicate and all of the samples were prepared at the same time by a single technician using the same apparatus.
The separated proteins on the gel were visualised with a silver stain and those that were present only in the irradiated group or the sham group were marked as candidates for identification by mass spectrometry following digestion with trypsin.
Protein oxidation induced
The total number of protein spots on the gels ranged from 365 to 439 but there was little difference between the protein patterns for all three exposure groups. The overall protein concentrations and weights of the testes were not affected by the EMF treatment but there were some differences in individual proteins.
Significantly, 18 proteins were found only in the exposed group and 16 in the sham exposed group. They were not a result of thermal damage to the testes because the temperatures were maintained at 23°C during the whole program. The strongest and best separated spots, numbering 7 and 6 in the exposed and sham exposed groups, respectively, were analysed.
One of the proteins that disappeared following irradiation is Cu-Zn superoxide dismutase which offers major protection against oxygen toxicity in the testis. Its absence was attributed to the lack of viable spermatogonia, immature stem cells that form spermatocytes, where it is normally found in large quantities. If validated in further research, this effect alone is a serious consequence of EMFs.
The appearance of type II peroxiredoxin 1 in the testis after exposure to the EMF was due to over-oxidation of its cysteine residues. The occurrence of oxidative stress was supported by the appearance of heat shock proteins, possibly induced to combat the formation of free radicals, and the loss of valosin-containing protein due to the oxidative S-thiolation of cysteine residues.
Other affected proteins were related to metabolism and cytoskeletal processes within the testis. So, several different processes within the testis appear to be affected by the impact of EMFs.
The research team acknowledge that their findings will have to be confirmed by complementary studies using other methods like Western blotting and immunohistochemical procedures. However, if the protein alterations can be repeated, then exposure to EMFs from cell phones and wifi equipment will have to be reconsidered by national and international health organisations as they could have a bearing on male fertility.

|Mobile-phone radiation accelerates mercury release from dental amalgam fillings
|Created: 3 Oct 2008
A new important clue in the connection between mobile-phone radiation and the increase of electrohypersensitivity, autism, allergies, alzheimers, parkinsons comes from researchers at the Department of Medical Physics, Shiraz University in Iran.
The researchers have discovered that exposure to mobile-phone radiation or MRI-scan magnetic field significantly accelerates the release of mercury from dental fillings and into the body.
In the 1st phase of this study, thirty patients were investigated. Five milliliter stimulated saliva was collected just before and after MRI. The magnetic flux density was 0.23 T and the duration of exposure of patients to magnetic field was 30 minutes.
In the 2nd phase, fourteen female healthy University students who had not used mobile phones before the study and did not have any previous amalgam restorations were investigated.
Dental amalgam restoration was performed for all 14 students. Their urine samples were collected before amalgam restoration and at days 1, 2, 3 and 4 after restoration.
The mean +/- SD saliva Hg concentrations of the patients before and after MRI were 8.6 +/- 3.0 and 11.3 +/- 5.3 microg L(-1), respectively (p < 0.01).
A statistical significant (p < 0.05) higher concentration was observed in the students used mobile phone.
The mean +/- SE urinary Hg concentrations of the students who used mobile phones were 2.43 +/- 0.25, 2.71 +/- 0.27, 3.79 +/- 0.25, 4.8 +/- 0.27 and 4.5 +/- 0.32 microg L(-1) before the amalgam restoration and at days 1, 2, 3 and 4, respectively.
Whereas the respective Hg concentrations in the controls, were 2.07 +/- 0.22, 2.34 +/- 0.30, 2.51 +/- 0.25, 2.66 +/- 0.24 and 2.76 +/- 0.32 microg L(-1).
It appears that MRI and microwave radiation emitted from mobile phones significantly release mercury from dental amalgam restoration.
Further research is needed to clarify whether other common sources of electromagnetic field exposure may cause alterations in dental amalgam and accelerate the release of mercury.

|Cancer link to heavy mobile use
|Created: 25 Feb 2008
Heavy mobile phone use may be linked to an increased risk of cancer of the salivary gland, a study suggests.
Researchers looked at 500 people who had developed the condition and compared their mobile phone usage with 1,300 healthy controls.
Those who had used the phone against one side of the head for several hours a day were 50% more likely to have developed a salivary gland tumor.
The research appeared in The American Journal of Epidemiology.
Numerous studies have focused on the risk of tumors among those who use mobile phones, and overwhelmingly found no increased cancer risk.
But researchers say these have tended to focus on brain tumors, and often did not include long-term users.
Cancer of the salivary gland is a very rare condition. Of the 230,000 cases of cancer diagnosed in the UK for instance annually, only 550 relate to this area.
One of the key findings of the study was that heavy users in rural areas had an even higher risk that those in cities, due, the team suggested, to the fact that mobile phones in areas without strong signals need to emit more radiation to work properly.
But Dr. Siegal Sadetzki, who led the research, stressed one study was not enough to prove a link, and that further research was needed.
Nonetheless, until more evidence became available, a ""precautionary"" approach was best, she said, particularly when it comes to children's use of mobile phones.
Despite these latest findings, the largest and longest-running investigation ever to be carried out into mobile phone usage found no increased risk of any sort of cancer.
It followed 420,000 people in Denmark, some of whom had been using a mobile phone for as long as ten years.
There was in fact a lower incidence of cancer than expected in a group of that size, suggesting mobile phones had no impact on the development of tumors.
Last year, the UK's Mobile Telecommunications and Health Research Program said that while the evidence so far was "reassuring", there was still a need for studies to examine the very long-term impact, and to look at the effect in children.
Ed Yong, of Cancer Research UK, said: ""Mobile phones are a relatively recent invention and new research into any possible health risks is welcome.
"However, it's important to remember that the vast majority of studies so far have found that mobile phones do not increase the risk of any type of cancer."

|Some words from rckplsky:
I'm still working on the Boat Ho series. Don't know how to end it. Truthfully I've fallen in love the main character. She's based on this girl I loved in the Navy who didn't love me back. So it's been fun putting her in compromising positions.
Feel free to send me feedback, both positive & negative.
I have a bit of a foot fetish. A lot of my female characters wear skimmer shoes or ballet flats. I love toes as well. I love the interracial porn genre as well....
Other things of note. I don't believe in gay rights. I know I've written gay stories before but I believe that gay sex is for pleasure only not relationships. The Cullen series shows how out of control a man looking for gay sex can be. I will finish the series but I can't in good conscience write anymore gay stories. I typically won't sleep with a white woman unless she's been with a black man, but I will make exceptions....

CHICAGO (AP) - The U.S. women's soccer team will finish the year with a game against archrival Brazil.
The top-ranked Americans will play Brazil on Nov. 10 in Orlando, Fla. It's the first time the teams have met in the United States since July 2008, when the Americans won 1-0 in a tuneup game for the Beijing Olympics. The U.S. met Brazil again the next month in the gold-medal game, a 1-0 overtime victory that gave the Americans the second of three straight Olympic titles.
Three years later, the teams played an epic game in the quarterfinals of the Women's World Cup. Abby Wambach tied the score in the final seconds of overtime, and the Americans went on to win on penalty kicks.
The U.S. is 24-2-3 against Brazil.

Well, I think there's something that gay people have. It is true that to pass through the transitions that gay people have to in order to come out to themselves, to their families when they're quite young, it's a grow-bag, isn't it? And I think that very often, heterosexual people miss out on that. There's a feeling of development and sometimes, heterosexual people have never had to go through that self-examination and just knowing themselves, and that sense of coming out, coming to your own defense, and being your own best advocate, and going, "No! I'm going to stand by myself and say this is who I am and you can all fuck off." That is a wonderful transition to go through, and I suppose a lot of straight people miss out on that, and then maybe their relationship choices are potentially less examined. They could be lazier or less thoroughly thought-through.

Needs Help (Titles Crowner 7/6): Shonen Upgrade get usage counts
Shonen Upgrade is defined as follows:
2 Septimus Heap, Sun, 17th Mar '13 9:58:08 AM from Zurich, Switzerland Relationship Status: Mu
A Wizard boyI agree on a rename. Even knowing what the term "shonen" means, I do not get the trope from it.
Petting Zoo PersonI'm sure I've seen this in Power Rangers and several RPGs, probably a couple Western cartoons as well. We need a new description and name. Heroic Upgrade is the first name that springs to mind for me, but that might be going in the direction of making it sound too vague.
I must be cruel, but to be kind That bad may begin, and worse be left behind
4 shimaspawn, Sun, 17th Mar '13 11:10:40 AM from Here and Now Relationship Status: In your bunk
What differentiates this from New Powers as the Plot Demands and Power Creep? We also need to nail that down as part of defining it. This seems to be a sort of exponential power growth.
Reality is that, which when you stop believing in it, doesn't go away. -Philip K. Dick
5 Septimus Heap, Sun, 17th Mar '13 11:18:39 AM from Zurich, Switzerland Relationship Status: Mu
A Wizard boyNew Powers as the Plot Demands is when the "upgrade" comes as an Ass Pull or otherwise arbitrarily. Power Creep is apparently limited to multi-players and with added content.
I think this shows why it's generally not a good idea to name tropes after the genre they're commonly found in.
7 Noaqiyeum, Sun, 17th Mar '13 6:26:22 PM from a thought-experiment gone horribly wrong Relationship Status: Showing feelings of an almost human nature
the it-thingyThat makes it sound like removing negativity from New Powers as the Plot Demands would broaden it enough to encompass this as well.
"I know I raised more questions than I answered, but I hope now we are all confused on an higher level and about more important things."
8 Septimus Heap, Mon, 18th Mar '13 12:12:18 AM from Zurich, Switzerland Relationship Status: Mu
A Wizard boyAss Pull and "Upgrade" do not really overlap, I feel.
Raven WilderWhat about just Power-Up? EDIT: Oh, that's already a trope.

10 RJ Savoy, Tue, 19th Mar '13 4:48:05 PM from Edinburgh Relationship Status: I'm just a poor boy, nobody loves me
ReymmãThe reason it was named after the genre is that whilst it certainly happens in Western superpower-based shows, in shonen it is expected as a convention. The hero is up against a more powerful enemy and must get better. Japanese Spirit explains it a bit. Which leads me to the question: should the trope be about any single upgrade, or only cover shows where they happen regularly? (Say once a season at least.) Also, villains can get upgrades (otherwise you need a matching supply of new ones). Could this trope cover them too, or is there a qualitative difference?
11 Septimus Heap, Wed, 20th Mar '13 4:46:27 AM from Zurich, Switzerland Relationship Status: Mu
A Wizard boyThe trope is more about the upgrade than the numbers of upgrades. Villains don't really look like examples of this trope.
A shounen upgrade is one part of the three-part system of fighting/sports anime:
Seems pretty close to Took a Level in Badass and Time to Unlock More True Potential, though the former is less specific (anyone getting stronger, regardless of how important they are or whether it makes much difference) and the latter moreso (the formula King Zeal posted, but excluding powers granted by an external source).
edited 20th Mar '13 11:10:11 AM by Prime32
Mid-Season Upgrade is another seemingly identical trope that also claims to be specific to an anime genre. Merge?
Mid-Season Upgrade has better wicks, but not quite as many inbounds. I wouldn't be opposed to a merge.
Are you guys even reading the descriptions? They are completely different tropes. Shonen Upgrade is when the hero finds a new level of power, often in the form a transformation or Super Mode, that lets them deal with a threat or challenge. Mid-Season Upgrade is when the hero starts out as an invincible juggernaut, and the Big Bad makes his normal mooks stronger to compensate.
In many such cases, the series starts with the protagonist mecha so powerful that no enemy unit can stop them, then to get some balance the enemy catches on eventually and creates weapons powerful enough that defeating them gets virtually impossible. Finally, the heroes get their upgrades to devastate their enemies and restores their superiority.It goes both ways, for heroes and villains. Sounds like a broader version of Shounen Upgrade to me.
18 Another Duck, Wed, 20th Mar '13 7:03:26 PM from Stockholm Relationship Status: In season
No, the other one.I'm not really seeing a significant difference between Time to Unlock More True Potential and Shonen Upgrade. They both follow a similar pattern and have similar effects on the plot. No need to attack people.
19 Septimus Heap, Thu, 21st Mar '13 4:46:55 AM from Zurich, Switzerland Relationship Status: Mu
A Wizard boyI agree on merging Time to Unlock More True Potential and Shonen Upgrade. Mid-Season Upgrade needs its mecha references removed, but if it's a villain trope it should be kept separate, or narrowed down to it.
So Last Season and My Kung-Fu Is Stronger Than Yours are also related, though the latter is more of an attitude.
edited 21st Mar '13 7:55:23 AM by Prime32
I'm seeing a difference between Time to Unlock More True Potential and Shonen Upgrade, though it's hard to figure out because the page quote on the former is misleading. Time to Unlock More True Potential is the moment in which a character can no longer improve themselves or with the help of familiar training/trappings. The world they live in is too small to contain them now, so they need to move on and find that guru in the mountains, or the legendary hero who walks the Earth, or that old master in the Dagobah system to expand their growth. That's directly what the description says and what the examples imply. By comparison, Shonen Upgrade seems to be a Super Trope for any named or clearly differentiated ability that signifies that a hero has achieved a new level of power to persevere over a current problem. Doesn't matter if it's a Super Mode, a new attack, or becoming a different being altogether. In other words, Time to Unlock More True Potential seems to be a storyarc or a subplot within a greater work. Shonen Upgrade may or may not be what results from it.
22 Another Duck, Fri, 22nd Mar '13 6:58:39 AM from Stockholm Relationship Status: In season
No, the other one.Your explanation in #12 suggests at least a subplot, though.
As I said, it's part of one, in the same way that the Final Battle is part of a plot, but you couldn't really call it a plot in itsself.
This entry for Bleach seems to signify the most important aspect of the Shonen Upgrade to me: Shinigami in Bleach have 3 forms to their Zanpakuto, "Unreleased", "Shikai", and "Bankai". Ichigo starts unreleased, loses his powers, skips straight to Shikai upon regaining his powers, and later gains Bankai through a pure Shonen Upgrade moment. In addition, Ichigo's Hollow powers are a similar example, powers acquired, not through training, but by dramatic need, usually after being stabbed. bold for emphasis. The main distinction from New Powers as the Plot Demands would be the non-asspull nature of it. And the focus on in-universe perspective. It's not mentioned in the description, but another feature of most Shonen Upgrades (at least all the examples i can remember) would be it's part in character growth. It's not only a means to defeat the villain or overcome whatever threat is looming, it's about the personal growth of the character in question. The Upgrade is a part of the character's ongoing arc, often with the character's entire power set partially changing with the character's development. I think this is something that should be included in a cleared up description of Shonen Upgrade. I do also agree with renaming Shonen Upgrade, but not with merging. P.S. To build on the Star Wars example, Luke's sudden reliance on The Force rather than the guidance computers to make the final shot at the Death Star in episode IV, is a fine example of suddenly achieveing mastery of a new ability in the situation which needs it most, concluding a part of character development for Luke. Said ability (and indeed his entire status as a Jedi) is showcased heavily in the next film, but is heavily outclassed by Darth Vader. This is a good (untraditional but no less correct) example of Shonen Upgrade, while not at all being an example of New Powers as the Plot Demands
25 Another Duck, Fri, 22nd Mar '13 11:01:47 PM from Stockholm Relationship Status: In season
No, the other one.So, what we have here is a mess of a lot of related tropes. Sorting them roughly in an items-powers-plots order. Additionally, the bolded tropes rely on or affect the Sorting Algorithm of Evil.
edited 22nd Mar '13 11:03:03 PM by AnotherDuck
At issue:Previous crowner decided to make this not Japan-specific and to rename this.

Lindsay Lohan Claims BRAKES FAILED, Caused Crashby Free Britney at . Comments
Lindsay Lohan. What she won't think of next.
The star is telling her friends that the BRAKES ON HER RENTED PORSCHE DID NOT WORK properly, thus causing her serious car accident Friday.
Lohan slammed into the back of an 18-wheeler and is thankfully okay, as is the truck driver and the personal assistant traveling with Lindsay.
It seems like the blame game is being played once again, however, as LiLo claimed the semi cut her off ... and the truck driver says otherwise.
Lindsay says that after the truck cut her off, she claims she slammed on the brakes and ... nothing happened! Somehow - this is the best - Lindsay also says she was told the Porsche's brakes on the rental were replaced two days before the crash.
Is Lindsay Lohan subtly implying someone wanted her dead and cut her brakes so she'd crash?!? That sounds like a plot from NCIS: Los Angeles.
Someone ought to write a Lohan Book of Excuses, because there have really been some all-timers, but in any case, she says she's lucky to be alive.
As for the guy driving the truck Lindsay smashed into?James (last name withheld) says her account is - you guessed it - a complete lie and he has the witnesses to prove it was all LiLo's fault.
James emphatically denied cutting her off and claims he has multiple witnesses that saw the actress "flying" down the Pacific Coast Highway.
He says he couldn't possibly have cut Lohan off because he was already in the right lane when the accident, which totaled her car, occurred.
What's more, he said Lindsay's camp tried to bribe him at the scene of the accident in an effort to keep him quiet about the event.
Lohan was also trying to flee the scene, he claims, and when he tried to stop her from doing so, her people tried to buy his silence.
Sounds a little far-fetched ... but you never know with Lindsay. Bottom line, girl, you make a lot of money. Just hire a freaking driver.
[Photo: WENN.com]
Porsche has the most advanced "black box" that will reveal and reconstruct the events. Not to mention - even without the EDR, any claims that brakes failed will be fully tested and the facts will be what they are.
Lindsay Lohan is doing hard time, including lockdowns and solitary confinement. Lindsay Lohan is the latest celebrity to find herself so far on the wrong side of the law that she ends up in jail. http://redd.it/uvs3p
Lindsay(as well as Amanda Bynes) really need to have their personal assistants drive them...everywhere! They are making LA roads a very dangerous place to be. I'd really like the police to pull Lindsay's cell phone records to see if she was texting or chatting on the phone while her brakes "malfunctioned". Wouldn't surprise me in the least...
So, her brakes worked from the time she left the rental agency until the moment she really needed them, right?
That's almost as funny waiting over twenty-four hours to mention this supposed brake failure instead of saying it right away, almost as funny as the police saying they weren't even sure who was driving, almost as funny as the last-minute claim that the paparazzi were following her.
What next, the sun was glaring off the truck's bumper momentarily blinding her?
Hopefully her movie stint will playing Elizabeth Taylor will ignite her career and she'll obtain more movie offers...and just hire a chauffeur? Sounds like a winning idea to me.
All I can say is OMG,please someone tell her to zip it!!
Of course breaks fail but only when you don't use them.
One more thing, the sun was glaring off the truck's rear bumper right in her eyes! She forget to mention it but she'll do so tomorrow when she thinks of it.
Why the hell would her people let her drive seriously. All that money and they can't hire a fucking driver??!!
How come they don.t say what her blood tested at? Oh well with her tey would cover it up. This girl thinks she is the Queen of all.
