Get Love Online

“Twitter for me was like having another group of friends who could set me up with people,” Christina Coster, who met her boyfriend on the micro-blogging site, said.

Social daters and professional online dating coaches have given some advice on how to use social networking sites to find “The One.

They start by pointing to the fact that you can increase your chances of meeting someone who shares your interests by. Social sites offer a place where people can meet each other by what they say about their passions.

You get to know a lot about someone when they write a review, even without having to spend time with them,” the Huffington Post quoted one social dater who met her boyfriend on Yelp as saying.

The comments section of websites like Amazon.com, YouTube, Goodreads, Google+, Pinterest or any place where people hang out online can be used to find romance. Including some personal details in your profile offers an instant icebreaker, so don’t leave it blank and don’t shy away from mentioning that you’re single.

According to online dating coach Julie Spira, “Nothing is more powerful than the Facebook relationship status.”

Expand your social circle through social media sites. Whereas stalking people you’ve never met is frowned upon on Facebook, buddying up to strangers won’t get you any weird looks on the likes of Twitter, Instagram or even Yelp. And those strangers can set you up.

An easy way to go about this on Twitter would be by first fostering a fresh group of friends by following people who share your interests, along with the people they follow or mention in their tweets. It could be something even simpler that helps break the ice - one person’s now-boyfriend started tweeting with her because he thought her profile picture was cute.

Engage with the people you follow by name dropping them in your tweets with “@ mentions,” re-tweeting interesting things you see them post and, when the time is right, sending them private direct messages. Or you could just invite yourself along to whatever they’re doing.

Once you’ve made initial contact and things get even slightly more personal, move the conversation to a private place. On Facebook, it might mean messaging instead of public wall posts. On Instagram, chatting on a private messaging app like Kik instead of commenting on photos – there’s also good old email, Gmail chat, Skype and AOL Instant Messenger.

“The most important part of online dating, whether it’s traditional online dating or not, is getting offline,” Laurie Davis, a dating coach and founder of eFlirt Expert, said. Successful social daters also recommend reviewing what someone has shared on the social network to be sure his or her story isn’t riddled with inconsistencies.

The public nature of most social sites ensures that you can check up on other people someone has been flirting with and what sort of tales they’ve been telling – and no matter what site you’re using, don’t trust the photos.

Red Hair Celebs Girls

Some new research suggests that men like redheads least of all.

The researchers asked an attractive woman to sit in a bar and counted the amount of approaches she received from men. Then they dyed her hair, and repeated the experiment.

The results were unequivocal. Men approached the blonde more than the brunette, and the redhead least of all.

This seems ridiculous to us, and it might seem like that to you, after you feast your eyes on these flame-haired beauties.

You might not know the name but you'll certainly know the face, and the hair. Amy Adams has won best supporting actress Oscar nominations for The Fighter, Doubt and Junebug.

Mad Men's Christina Hendricks is the poster girl for alluring redheads at the moment. She's curvy, flirty and fiery. What more could you want?

They didn't call her Ginger Spice for nothing, and as anyone who has flicked through a tabloid recently can tell you, Geri Halliwell is looking better than ever.

Karen Gillan. Doctor Who is a lucky man for all sorts of reasons (the immortality, intergalactic travel etc) but most of all for having made the acquaintance of this gorgeous Scottish redhead.

Lily Cole is the English model whose bright red hair and slightly left-field looks have catapulted her to fame. She's also very, very clever, with a double first from Cambridge University. No dumb blonde, that's for sure.

Lindsay Lohan is a bad girl. She's no stranger to rehab, alcohol education classes and brushes with the law. Clearly, it's all down to that fiery red hair.

There seems to be some confusion over whether the Australian beauty Nicole Kidman is a natural redhead or a natural blonde. InStyle magazine reckons the former, so that's good enough for us (to show this photo).

Using the Treadmill

Benefit and Bad Things of using Treadmills. Is running on the treadmill a good idea or is it better to work up that sweat outdoors? We give you the pros and cons of using a treadmill so you may make an informed choice.

Good and Bad Things of treadmill. Running is considered one the easiest and most effective forms of exercise. It’s cheap, it requires minimal to no training to get started and the only thing that you really need to worry about is getting yourself a good pair of sneakers. And also the weather, as that can play a major spoilsport to the most dedicated runner’s plans

Good Things of using the treadmill. That was until the treadmill came into our lives. These indoor machines that allow us to run on the spot for as long as we like, any time of the day or night, are a boon for walkers and runners. It’s time to take a step back and see whether treadmills are actually a healthy replacement for the good old outdoors.

You’re no longer a slave to the elements. If it’s pouring cats and dogs outside, you are more likely to just stay snuggled in your blanket rather than get up and go for that run. With a treadmill, the only thing standing between you and your run is your will to run. Be it morning or night; a hot, scorching day or a rainy, wet one; those who want to run, can run! It enables steady running: While running in the great outdoors, some runners, especially beginners, tend to gradually slow down as they start feeling tired. This reduction in pace, unintentional as it may be, tends to reduce the quality of your workout. With a treadmill, you can ensure that you don’t run too fast or too slow.

It allows recovery runs. A recovery run is a run conducted at a slow, conversational pace, after an intense workout. These runs are necessary because they allow muscles to recover. Many beginners underestimate its importance and burn themselves out by trying to run fast and hard all the time. Setting the pace on the treadmill helps your muscles recuperate before you start your workout again.

It gives you an accurate measurement of your workout. Of course there are gadgets which enable you to judge the pace and distance that you have run but a treadmill offers complete control over the distance that you run and the speed that you wish to maintain making it easy to accurately measure the effectiveness of your workout. Many treadmills also come with built in heart rate monitors, allowing you to maintain your desired heart rate.

You can customize your workout: Live in Chennai but feel like running up a mountain? A treadmill will allow you to do that. With a treadmill, you can choose from a variety of workouts and terrains to give yourself a real challenge.

Bad Things of using the treadmill. Provides an ideological running environment: Experts suggest that your training regimen should be as close to the real deal as possible. When you run on a treadmill, you run in a protected environment. For example, while running outside, the wind works against you. The faster you run, the more resistance it offers. On a treadmill, you don’t train to face the elements.

Enables incorrect running posture. Studies have been performed which show that the way your body positions itself while running on a treadmill and on free ground is different. On a treadmill, runners tend to lean forward less, causing wastage of energy.

Provides a smooth running surface. While running outdoors, you are bound to encounter obstacles, stones and different surfaces. This variety improves the ability of your mind to pre-empt the effect of the terrain on your muscles. It allows the brain to judge what would be the best way to position the joints to brace for impact. On a treadmill, the consistent smooth surface, acts as a disadvantage in this regard.

advantages and disadvantages More often than not, people get carried away by the fake promise of fitness that a treadmill comes with. The treadmill can merely act as a tool; the driving factor for higher fitness levels lies with you. So be it getting your exercise on the treadmill or on the streets outside, what’s important is putting those shoes on and doing it. Either way, you win
