BANGOR, ME, September 28, 2010 (Press-News.org) A scorching hot summer's day in Florida, a pure white arch decorated with silk and beach roses, two joyful families gathered, and dedicated lovers staring deep into each other's eyes. A familiar scene of vows exchanged except the difference here is that the bride is a gorgeous Nigerian lady and the groom a handsome white guy from Miami. This is the growing trend in America and the world over - that of the interracial marriage.

The last decade has seen a dramatic rise in interracial marriages with the latest US Census statistics revealing a threefold higher rate of blacks marrying whites compared with 1980. According to the figures garnered by the 2008 American Community Survey, there's been a 20 per cent increase since 2000 in the number of interracial marriages with the current figure sitting pretty at around 4.5 million. During this time US marriages between whites and blacks have more than doubled.

Today, an increasing number of Western men are looking to marry African women due to their honest values and incredible beauty. To support this trend, specialist dating site AfricaBeauties.com has just introduced a host of new features to take dating an African lady to the next level of usability. The site now wows visitors with much larger thumbnails and images of all scintillating African ladies, while integration of mini videos on the home page reveals potential African dating matches in glorious motion.

One of the most useful features of the thrilling upgrade is the addition of 'NEW' icons that indicate which fresh beauties have just been added to the AfricaBeauties database. And for those who use the popular dating tool Live Chat, communication is even easier with the addition of a light-hearted set of smilies to liven up real-time messages. To cap this major website revamp, members now also have access to a romantic range of virtual gifts to make an even more passionate impact on their beloved. They can send and receive vibrant gifts in the form of icons including a diamond ring, juicy strawberry and a rose.

This captivating boost to the website makes dating an African lady even more fun, rewarding and a direct route to a dreamy position beneath the wedding arches.

Light workout: Stanford scientists use optogenetics to effectively stimulate muscle movement in mice

2010-09-27
STANFORD, Calif. - Researchers at Stanford University were able to use light to induce normal patterns of muscle contraction, in a study involving bioengineered mice whose nerve-cell surfaces are coated with special light-sensitive proteins. The new approach allows scientists to more accurately reproduce muscle firing order, making it a valuable research tool. The investigators, from Stanford's Schools of Medicine and of Engineering, also believe this technique could someday spawn practical applications, from restoring movement to limbs paralyzed by stroke or spinal-cord ...

Inhibiting cell signaling pathway may improve bone marrow transplant success rate

2010-09-27
CINCINNATI – Identification of a molecular communications pathway that influences the mobilization of hematopoietic (blood) stem cells could lead to targeted therapies for improving bone marrow transplant success rates. In a bed-side to bench approach, researchers at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center report Sept. 26 in Nature Medicine that pharmacological inhibition of a signaling pathway triggered by Egfr (epidermal growth factor receptor) increased the mobilization of hematopoietic stem cells in mice. The finding provides a scientific basis for enhancing ...

Researchers convert quantum signals to telecom wavelengths, increase memory times

Researchers convert quantum signals to telecom wavelengths, increase memory times
2010-09-27
Using optically dense, ultra-cold clouds of rubidium atoms, researchers have made advances in three key elements needed for quantum information systems – including a technique for converting photons carrying quantum data to wavelengths that can be transmitted long distances on optical fiber telecom networks. The developments move quantum information networks – which securely encode information by entangling photons and atoms – closer to a possible prototype system. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology reported the findings Sept. 26 in the journal ...

Genetic ancestry: A new look at racial disparities in head and neck cancer

Genetic ancestry: A new look at racial disparities in head and neck cancer
2010-09-27
DETROIT – Head and neck cancer outcomes associated with race may be more closely linked to social and behavioral factors than biological differences, especially for African Americans, according to a new Henry Ford Hospital study. Researchers found that while those who self-reported to be African American are at greater risk for late stage cancer, there was no correlation between patients' genetic ancestry and cancer stage or survival. In fact, the study shows only 5 percent of patients who self-reported to be African American had more than 95 percent West African ancestry. ...

Pinpointing where volcanic eruptions could strike

2010-09-27
A better way to pinpoint where volcanic eruptions are likely to occur has been produced by an international team of geophysicists. Scientists from the universities of Leeds, Purdue, Indiana and Addis Ababa, investigated volcanic activity occurring in the remote Afar desert of Northern Ethiopia between 2005 and 2009. By studying a rare sequence of 13 magmatic events – where hot molten rock was intruded into a crack between the African and Arabian plates – they found that the location of each intrusion was not random. They showed that they were linked because each event ...

Nature Nanotechnology paper shows enzyme-controlled movement of DNA polymer through a nanopore

2010-09-27
Santa Cruz, CA, USA and Oxford, UK, 27 September 2010: Research published this week in Nature Nanotechnology shows a new method of enzyme-controlled movement of a single strand of DNA through a protein nanopore. The paper, by researchers at the University of California Santa Cruz (UCSC), represents a key step towards nanopore sequencing of DNA strands. The publication describes the observation of single stranded DNA (ssDNA) as it translocates through a protein nanopore, alpha hemolysin (AHL). Movement of the ssDNA was controlled by polymerase-facilitated replication ...

Let your fingers do the driving

Let your fingers do the driving
2010-09-27
SALT LAKE CITY, Sept. 27, 2010 – If drivers are yakking on cell phones and don't hear spoken instructions to turn left or right from a passenger or navigation system, they still can get directions from devices that are mounted on the steering wheel and pull skin on the driver's index fingertips left or right, a University of Utah study found. The researchers say they don't want their results to encourage dangerous and distracted driving by cell phone users. Instead, they hope the study will point to new touch-based directional devices to help motorists and ...
