Fewer boys than girls were born in the months after the huge earthquake struck Japan in March 2011. Ralph Catalano of the University of California in Berkeley and colleagues examined hospital records of births in Japan between 2006 and the end of 2011. After the quake, births in areas closest to the epicentre were more likely to be girls, but provinces farther out showed no gender bias. About 2.2 per cent fewer boys were born in the most damaged areas than expected (American Journal of Human Biology, doi.org/nbj). It is not the first time such a skew has been noted: fewer boys were born after the US stock market crash of 2008, for instance. The reason may be evolutionary, says Catalano. Boys are more likely to be premature and suffer problems associated with low birth weight than girls. In times of stress, it may therefore be beneficial for the mother to give birth to a girl. However, it is unclear whether stress causes mothers to miscarry more males or whether fewer males are conceived. Earthquakes provide a natural test for this, Catalano says. If births immediately after show a gender skew, it would suggest that stress is triggering miscarriages. A bias nine months later indicates fewer male conceptions. The team found evidence for both. Several mechanisms may be at work, says Catalano. Fetuses produce a hormone called human chorionic gonadotropin, which camouflages them from the mother's immune system. Weak male fetuses make less of this hormone, meaning they may be at greater risk of attack. William James of University College London believes the father's testosterone level plays a role. During periods of high stress, he says, men produce less testosterone, which can reduce the number and quality of the "male" sperm, which carry a Y sex chromosome.

I've never put that amount of effort into anything ever. He has a hairstyle, a beard style, even a filter style.

I figured the main page was gonna be coldplay stuff so never bother with it. I just go straight to general discussion.

Mixtape Exchange XV (Summer edition)
I'll have to give Isaac Shepherd a listen. Hopefully he'll be on Spotify, etc. The version of satisfaction I have heard is very different. Apologies for the video but it's the actual one: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=V5bYDhZBFLA]Benny Benassi - 'Satisfaction' (Official Video) - YouTube[/ame] Surprised to see St Vincent + Byrne on there. I haven't listened to that album so will give it a try. Remember hearing a while back about it but had completely forgotten. Also surprised I didn't dislike the Noah and the Whale one. I find their better known singles too catchy and a bit annoying but I guess I should delve into their lesser known stuff as there's obviously something there. And don't worry about the piano, as I said. It was like a running theme so it was good to tie it all together. They were all well written songs, too, and the piano pieces especially were nice. Has inspired me to get back on my synth. I also appreciate you putting on the female vocalists. I'm hard to please in that category, but that means it's a good job you put several on as you're more likely to find something I like that way. Here's the New Order song that reminded me of the Sparkadia song. There's some similarities there for sure, in a good way: [ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UK4xVWVOAOc]Bizarre Love Triangle - New Order 1987 - YouTube[/ame]

Not that I'm aware of I'm afraid. I want Ian Woan on the tags if you're taking requests. For no reason whatsoever.

Sorry, I meant to say British Columbian girls. What's up with them? And I wanna hear of Reilly's weirdness too. Juicy stuff on the way...

I hate the fact that the tags in this thread below the bottom post are fans and liverpool. Can we change that?

Sounds more fun than the SPL. Kilmarnock are my second team, for the only reason that I used to be them on a computer game because they had McCoist and Durrant who were technically awesome but about 39 years old.

Ahhhh. I didn't see the thread before then. So anyway, what have you found to be the problem with them? I've only ever met a couple of Canadian girls and they were both very nice people.
