NORFOLK, ENGLAND, July 22, 2011 (Press-News.org) And with 15 million singles in the UK, Internet dating is now the quickest, safest and cheapest way to find the partner of your dreams. (Or enjoy a little online flirtation if that's your thing.)
Online dating is one of the Internet's largest business sectors and a completely acceptable - even fashionable - way to meet your partner. Gone are the days where an awkward silence would greet the question 'where did you meet?' These days a newly engaged couple are happy to share the fact they met online and are quick to divulge which dating site they used. In fact, a fifth of people marrying admit to meeting their partner online.
Dating in the UK via the Internet has become the "norm". But why is it so popular?
Our working lives are now so frantic, with long hours and busy schedules, we often have little time to socialise and meet new people. And spending a ton of cash hanging out in a bar or a club hoping to casually bump into someone you want to date can be a depressing waste of money.
So what's so good about Internet dating? It's easy. Internet dating is really easy. And it's safe. In fact, it's much safer to meet up with someone you've already chatted to online rather than meet up with some random person you met in bar last weekend. And it's private. You can chat via instant messenger, talk on the phone, Skype, and email from the privacy of your own home, before you even decide to meet.
With Internet dating you can choose to connect with people with similar interests to you, such as movies, books or films. Or you might want to meet someone with the same education or with the same lifestyle as you. Maybe you want someone in your local area who have a similar job. Or perhaps you fancy connecting with someone who's not your usual type.
One of the pluses about Internet dating is the sheer number of people to choose from especially on a free dating website such as Girls Date For Free.
Tips for successful Internet dating in the UK
Having a picture on your profile is essential. Numerous UK dating sites, including Girls Date For Free, allow you to search for people only if they have a profile picture. So if you haven't got a profile pic it's easy to get overlooked. And make sure you use a real image of yourself, preferably one where you're smiling, looking friendly and enjoying yourself. Don't choose a picture from five years ago. Or one that's been Photoshopped so much it doesn't even look like you! And don't use a picture of someone else. You're just setting yourself up for a whole bunch of dating disappointments.
Create a good screen name that's not too long and is personal to you. And write an eye-catching headline that isn't cheesy or smacks of desperation. Too many people write similar headlines, so it's worth choosing something different if you want to stand out from the crowd.
In your Internet dating profile it's important to describe yourself honestly. Say what you're like as a person and what your interests are, what you do for work and what hobbies you have. Don't just list them but go into them in some detail. Write something that will be interesting and make people smile. So avoid the usual 'I like country walks, having fun (who doesn't?), and snuggling up on the sofa with a bottle of wine' type comments. Too many people write the same thing and it can quickly get boring.
But don't boast. People who boast and brag are unattractive in real life as they are online. And don't fib on your Internet dating profile either. Pretending you're a professional scuba diver or a lingerie model may attract a certain type of suitor. But you'll quickly get found out. Don't be apologetic or negative or desperate. Be confident and remember to have fun. Internet dating is all about enjoying yourself.

When injured muscles mistakenly grow bones
2011-07-22
CHICAGO --- For hundreds of thousands of people, injuring a muscle through an accident like falling off a bike or having surgery can result in a strange and serious complication. Their muscles start growing bones.
No one understood what caused the abnormal bone growth, so there was no treatment. But now, research from Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine and the Perelman School of Medicine at the University of Pennsylvania shows that a neuropeptide in the brain called Substance P appears to trigger the formation of the extraskeletal bone. Eliminating ...
Work engagement, job satisfaction, and productivity -- they're a virtuous cycle
2011-07-22
Engaged workers—those who approach their work with energy, dedication, and focus—are more open to new information, more productive, and more willing to go the extra mile. Moreover, engaged workers take the initiative to change their work environments in order to stay engaged.
What do we know about the inner workings of work engagement, and how can employers enhance it to improve job performance? In a new article to be published in the August issue of Current Directions in Psychological Science , a journal of the Association for Psychological Science, Arnold B. Bakker ...
Caltech researchers create the first artificial neural network out of DNA
2011-07-22
PASADENA, Calif.—Artificial intelligence has been the inspiration for countless books and movies, as well as the aspiration of countless scientists and engineers. Researchers at the California Institute of Technology (Caltech) have now taken a major step toward creating artificial intelligence—not in a robot or a silicon chip, but in a test tube. The researchers are the first to have made an artificial neural network out of DNA, creating a circuit of interacting molecules that can recall memories based on incomplete patterns, just as a brain can.
"The brain is incredible," ...
As new data wave begins, a gene study in one disease discovers mutations in an unrelated disease
2011-07-22
Often enough, in science as in life, unexpected knowledge has a personal impact. Researchers seeking rare gene variants in just a few individuals with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) discovered that one patient had a novel combination of two mutations. Those mutations caused a different disease, unrelated to ADHD—a blood disorder called idiopathic hemolytic anemia.
Although the man had long contended with the blood disease, "idiopathic" meant that physicians were unable to determine the cause of his particular anemia—until now, say authors of a new study.
As ...
Animal model sheds light on rare genetic disorder, signaling pathway
2011-07-22
SALT LAKE CITY – A team of researchers from the University of Utah and Brigham Young University has developed a mouse model of focal dermal hypoplasia, a rare human birth defect that causes serious skin abnormalities and other medical problems. This animal model not only provides insight into studying the cause of focal dermal hypoplasia (FDH), but also offers a novel way to study a signaling pathway that is crucial for embryonic development.
The findings were published July 19, 2011, online in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
FDH is an uncommon ...
Genetic map of African-Americans to aid study of diseases, human evolution
2011-07-22
JACKSON, Miss. – A group of researchers from the University of Oxford, Harvard Medical School and the University of Mississippi Medical Center has constructed the world's most detailed genetic map, a tool scientists can use to better understand the roots of disease and how DNA is passed generationally to create diversity in the human species.
About 5,000 Jackson-area volunteers were included in a group of nearly 30,000 African-Americans whose genetic information the scientists used to create the map.
The map pinpoints genome locations where people splice together DNA ...
URMC researchers exploring keys to melanoma progression
2011-07-22
Melanoma is devastating on many fronts: rates are rising dramatically among young people, it is deadly if not caught early, and from a biological standpoint, the disease tends to adapt to even the most modern therapies, known as VEGF inhibitors. University of Rochester researchers, however, made an important discovery about proteins that underlie and stimulate the disease, opening the door for a more targeted treatment in the future.
This month in the journal Cancer Research, Lei Xu, Ph.D., assistant professor of Biomedical Genetics at the University of Rochester Medical ...
