Fake Ray Bans(detail2013-07-07 530) Fashion and leisure The Magazine is compiling a people's history of modern Britain,Fake Ray Bans in parallel to Andrew Marr's television programme about post-war Britain. So what do you remember about the fashion and leisure of the 1950s? It was the decade of the Coronation, the end of food rationing and the Suez Crisis. The 50s were deadly dull because the adults that had fought World War II had had more than enough excitement and were content to make babies and homes with white furniture and started the business of consumer durables. The children of the 50s couldn't wait to grow up and reject the false prophet of materialism and it was those children of the 50s who created the swinging 60s the minute they could pull on their sexy jeans and mini-skirts and gave space to sex, drugs and rock n' roll. Derek Amory, Richmond I remember my parents being horrified by teddy boys with their drainpipe trousers, beetle-crusher shoes, fluorescent pink socks and DA haircuts (ooh, they might have flick knives), and the girls with beehive hairdo's or pony tails, frilly white blouses, huge circular skirts with paper nylon petticoats and hoops to hold them out, and kitten-heeled shoes. Stockings and suspenders - no tights then. Jiving. A cousin of mine was married in a dress with a skirt like that and couldn't get the hoop out of the front door! My parents did not listen to popular music being more interested in Mantovani, Mario Lanza and Rodgers and Hammerstein musicals, but my uncle who lived with us had a good collection including Johnny Ray, the Platters and Bill Haley. He was not, however, interested in Elvis Presley! When I was 12 or 13 I liked rock'n'roll and collected items by (ahem) Tommy Steele, Eddie Cochrane and Buddy Holly. I remember vaguely the death of James Dean though it didn't mean much to me, then Buddy Holly's then Eddie Cochrane's. Sheila Ferguson nee Richardson, Maidstone Kent I suppose we were the first teenagers. At 15, music was not at the top of my agenda, earning money was the thing that mattered as it gave you freedom, also you were expected to pay your own way. The other thing that you thought about as you got nearer to 18 was which part of the world the government might send you to from which you might not come back. We biked to dances on Saturday nights, sometimes having a few too many so had to push them home rather than ride. All in all it was a good time to be young. Michael Cornell, Marhamchurch Cornwall I'm baby-boomer, born 1942. We lived in Bucks in the 50s. We all had bicycles, and spent days during the holidays visiting one another's houses, going off for hours into the countryside, in fact our parents didn't expect to see us until mealtimes. About the mid-50s a favourite occupation was visiting the local record shop and listening to the pop records of the day in their "listening rooms". The records were, of course, large vinyl singles. We used to get thrown out when the staff were sick of us! My favourites were Frankie Laine, Dickie Valentine and then The Platters; until Elvis arrived on the scene and EVERYTHING changed! Such excitement! I had a black, wind-up gramophone which needed the needles changing regularly and had no volume control. We played tennis on council courts, badminton in the local scouts hut or visited the public swimming pool in the summer. One summer we all took dancing lessons (our parents thought it would keep us out of trouble) and actually dancing with a boy was just breathtakingly daring. Sally Gibbons, London I was five when the decade started, lived in London and had so much freedom as a child. School holidays were spent at the local Lido or rec and we were out all day with no worried mums wondering where we were. We played in the street and bought home-made vividly coloured ice lollies from the back of a local house for 1d each. We didn't have TV until I was 11, or a car. We went on day trips to the coast by Grey-Green Coaches from Tottenham. I passed the 11-plus and went to a local grammar school. Went dancing at the Tottenham Royal (1/6d on Mondays, 2shillings on Thursdays) to all the latest records. London smog was notorious, and my mum made us special masks with tapes to tie round the back of our heads - so stylish! I fell in love with Elvis and bought Blue Suede Shoes on a 78rpm record. Avril Watson, Maidstone Beehive hairstyles and swagger coats, getting married and trying to find somewhere to live with a baby, no help in those days. Friday nights playing cards with friends and eating sausage and fried tomato bread rolls, all we could afford. Suddenly discovering rock and roll, Elvis Presley and the first Hit Parade, standing in the record dept of Lewis stores in Birmingham, pram and all listening to Paul Anka, and a host of new stars waiting to be famous, those were the days my friend when we had nothing else to do but we also had everything freedom after the war years and best of all, the magical 60s to look forward to, although we had no idea at the time what lay ahead for us. They really were some of the best years of my life. Chrissie Brennan, Hessle East Riding of Yorkshire England As youngsters we played out all the time. "make sure you`re back before the street-light goes on", the street light being gas of course(and many of the terraced houses in our street still had gas light). No health and safety gone mad back then, no litigation culture, no real traffic. The world was our playground. In the street we had "wars", pelting each other with stones. We climbed the co-op wall and dived headlong into the co-op dump, a mass of cardboard boxes, bones, cheese rinds, vegetable leaves, maggots and rat shit. we built a den right in the middle of it all. We`d cycle to the docks, go on board the tramp steamers there from exotic places like Groningen, Hamburg and Amsterdam. The favourites were the Geest boats loaded with bananas. We swam in tidal rivers, spent hours out on the marshes cockling and picking samphire. We climbed trees, lit fires, swung across the old reservoir on ropes and tyres. No-one died, no-one got badly hurt, no-one got abducted, no-one was kiddie-fiddled. Roger Bray Holidays - well, we didn't have a car, no-one did. We went on day trips - we used to take the train from Plymouth to the Torbay resorts, places like Goodrington and Teignmouth, where once or twice we had a caravan for a week. It must have been very hard work, especially for Mum, making meals in a caravan. There was no question of eating out, not even fish and chips. The caravan was very cramped, especially after my brother was born in 1956 and two adults, three children, a toddler and a dog - and if it rained we were cooped up inside all day. I do remember plastic macs and plastic rain hoods. Yuk. We wore those elastic smocked bathing costumes and sun bonnets, what a fright we looked. We spent a lot of time wandering round the caravan park where all the vans had names and we used to be like "train spotters" and see who could collect the most names. On one occasion one of us lost a spade on the beach. Dad spent the rest of the day digging up the beach looking for it. We couldn't afford to lose things, it was a major drama. Angela Southern, Street, Somerset, UK Clothes were becoming more readily available, and fashion was there even for children: three-tiered dresses with lots of material, angora boleros, pretty sandals for the girls: coloured shorts, tartan shirts and stripy T-shirts for the boys. Teenagers had even more choice, but that lay in the future for me. Almost everything, including clothing, was passed on or recycled, but people could gradually expect to have more possessions, and some could even consider buying a house instead of renting or sharing. Gardens were often beautiful, and lovingly cared for. M W, Cheltenham UK Born in 1943, I was a part of a number of musically-inspired changes. School uniforms that were a size or to large were our best clothes, and than along came jeans, coloured socks, Slim Jim ties clashing colours - black against white, red and blue, and that all-inspiring music. I was on my way to being a missionary, my mother would have told you, then one day I heard Little Richard, Chuck Berry and than Elvis, everything changed, without doubt the best time to have been alive. Neil Upham, Risca Gwent. I was at the time living in a small market town in Mid-Wales and the countryside was our playground. We made our own entertainment. My friends and I would go on bike rides along country lanes which would often take us five miles or more from home. Sometimes we would wander for miles across hillsides. We had no fear - and presumably neither did our parents. How times have changed! Terry Phillips, Carmarthenshire Thanks for sending in so many memories. Those which haven't made it to print this time could form part of the BBC's Memoryshare project, to be launched later this year. More details here.

In the early part of the century, women still wore whalebone supports or farthingales under their skirts in order to shape the skirt and keep it looking full. This was then replaced with more comfortable thick skirts and petticoats that were trimmed with patterns and lace and circled the bottom of the skirt. The neck of the bodice was cut low and in the shape of a square or oval. The space was festooned with balloons and streamers and out came 14 Courtney Love look-alikes dressed in satin baby dolls the colours of sugared almonds and candy floss hair. After applying their lipstick, and puffing powder on their faces from huge marabou puffs, they proceeded to dance a crazed version of the can-can as the models paraded around them, a procession of sweet knits with not so sweet cut-outs to reveal a peekaboo of crystal-encrusted bra, an 18th century brocade jacket with a cape back in pistachio green with fluffy pompoms at the breast, a panier skirt, a marabou feather can-can dress, crystal encrusted knitted leotards, a jumper with a rainbow and smiley faces on clouds, a pinafore with a teddy bear appliquéd on the front.

While it is a given fact that every latest fashion craze that is out on the market is accessible to all those who can afford, it is also an established reality that a certain fashion craze may not always look good on every single person, both the fashionable and otherwise. Thus, fashion icons and stylists suggest that one must look for comfort and sense of well-being while wearing the apparel. Simply put it, if it fits right and one is comfortable wearing it, then is will turn out fashionable without trying so hard.

Windows 7 Activation Key(detail2013-06-20 558) Object moves in mysterious ways Watch a line sweep across a screen and its direction of motion is easily perceived.Windows 7 Activation Key But when the same line is viewed through an opening, it appears to change course (see animation above). The perceived motion seems to be determined by the shape of the aperture and the line's orientation, rather than its true behaviour, so why do we experience this effect? According to Dale Purves and his team from Duke University, North Carolina, we're tricked because our brain assumes that the line in the video is a 2D projection originating from a linear object moving in 3D space. Since it's impossible to determine the real world source of the projected line, we rely on a mental model formed by accumulated experience and presume that the object is moving in that direction. Purves and his team tested the theory by using a variety of 3D sources and examining the linear motion produced through different shaped openings. They confirmed that, in each case, the motion we perceive represents the most common scenario. In the circular cutout, the line-segment *geometrically* follows a diagonal path in keeping with the larger line-segment. In the rectangular cutout, it follows a vertical path going down. It's not an optical illusion, it's a geometrical fact--the subtended portion of the line-segment behaves *geometrically* in a different fashion depending on the subtending geometrical cutout, the direction of motion of the larger segment, and the relationship between the two. An easy proof of this is to compute an equation of the center of the subtended line-segment with respect to time and verify that its motion is in keeping with its observed motion in the cutout, which would verify that this is not an optical illusion, but rather a geometrical phenomenon. Said more simply, these are just different lines moving in different ways with and without the apertures. If the lines varied in color along the length then this would be a different story. Then, when looking through the aperture, we would perceive that the line is longer than that being displayed. Sure, in the second case, the diagonal line could be a sliding segment of a longer line moving in a different direction but it isn't. It is simply a short diagonal line sliding down the rectangular aperture.
