Celebrities / SEXTING: A New Crisis For Relationships? by orijodeals: 11:15am On Feb 14, 2016
‘Sexting’… So what is it anyway? ‘Sexting’ by definition is sending or receiving sexually explicit messages or photos by mobile phones or other social media. This is a trend that has increased steadily through the years as more and more people have utilized phones as their main method of communication. In fact, 88% of adults have engaged in some kind of ‘sexting’ within the context of a relationship according to a paper called: “Reframing Sexting as a Positive Relationship Behavior.” 2

Is ‘sexting’ more common than we believe or are these research studies just turning up coincidences with this type of behavior?

Surveyed of 870 heterosexual individuals and found that more ‘sexting’ was associated with a higher level of sexual satisfaction

These are just two studies, you might say, and don’t represent the population at large. Well, another way to look at this is that technology is something that most people (in larger cities or suburban areas) concentrate on daily. People are very involved with social media on mobile phones, computers & tablets. They are using these social media applications for various reasons (i.e. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, WhatsApp, Tumblr, Vine, Snapchat, etc). Is there any reason to think, even for a minute, that people are not using technology to date or enhance their present relationships? People all over the country (and the world) have access to texting/messaging, social media, and video chatting (Facetime, Viper, etc.). It is extremely easy to use any of these modalities in the context of a relationship.

So how do people view ‘sexting?

Celebrities / Why Is Black Friday Called Black Friday? by orijodeals: 9:05am On Nov 25, 2015
Black Friday is the name given to the shopping day after Thanksgiving. It was originally called Black Friday because so many people went out to shop that it caused traffic accidents and sometimes even violence.

The name was first recorded in 1966 by Earl Apfelbaum, a dealer in rare stamps. In his ad, he said, “‘Black Friday’ is the name that the Philadelphia Police Department gave to the Friday following Thanksgiving Day.

It is not a term of endearment for them. ‘Black Friday’ officially opens the Christmas shopping season in center city, and it usually brings massive traffic jams and over-crowded sidewalks as the downtown stores are mobbed from opening to closing.”

The Police Department coined the phrase to describe the mayhem surrounding the congestion of pedestrian and auto traffic in the Center City downtown area.

When Black Friday Became a Positive Name

Retailers did not appreciate the negative connotation associated with a black day of the week. They had a good point. For example, Black Monday was given to October 19, 1987. On that day, the Dow Jones Average fell 22%, the largest percentage drop on one day in stock market history. Here’s more on the Dow Closing History.

Another dark day, Black Thursday, occurred on October 24, 1929. It was the day that signaled the start of the Great Depression. It was followed the next week by Black Tuesday. On that day, the stock market lost 11% despite attempts by major investors to support stock prices. That destroyed any confidence investors had in the stock market, which in those days was perceived to be the economy.

Many had invested their life savings and were entirely wiped out.

No wonder retailers wanted to make the name “Black Friday” mean something positive. And, to them, the Friday after Thanksgiving is a very profitable day. To compensate, they decided to follow the adage, “If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em.”

They used the name to reflect their success. Accountants use black to signify profit when recording each day’s book entries. Red is used to mean loss. Therefore, Black Friday means profitable Friday to retailing and to the economy.

Worst Black Friday Violence

Black Friday crowds hunting bargains still give the police headaches. In 2013, police shot a Chicago Kohl’s shoplifter as he fled in his car — dragging an officer who was halfway into the vehicle.

The most violence seems to occur at Walmart, leading to the Twitter hashtag each year #Walmart fights. In 2012, two people were shot outside of a Walmart in Tallahassee Florida. They were fighting over a parking space.

Walmart’s consumer electronics department seems to be the most dangerous place. In 2011, a woman pepper-sprayed a crowd at a Walmart in Los Angeles. She was trying to get a Wii for 60% off. The year before, crowds at a Sacramento Walmart forced the store to evacuate when they started pushing and shoving to get deals on consumer electronics at 5:30 am.

On Black Friday 2009, another California Walmart, this time in Rancho Cucamonga, needed police protection from unruly crowds — again, in the early-morning hours in the consumer electronics department. The store was briefly closed a few hours after another store in nearby Upland was closed.

The worst Black Friday occurred in 2008 when a man was trampled to death. Despite being 6’5″ and 270 pounds, temporary worker Jdimytai Damour died of asphyxiation when crowds stampeded into another Wal-Mart (this time in New York). At least 2,000 people broke down the doors, trapping Damour in a vestibule where he suffocated. Eleven other shoppers were also injured, including a pregnant woman. It seems the police have a right to call Black Friday by a negative name.

Celebrities / Trousers Or Skirts – The Never Ending Dilemma Of A Modern Woman by orijodeals: 9:41am On Oct 30, 2015
When facing a fashion emergency, most women can rely on the help and opinions of their friends, family, internet advice or even stylists. But there is one dilemma that bothers every modern women and it seems to never go away – the choice between trousers and skirts.


Some women prefer wearing pants, since they find them more comfortable, while others wear skirts most of the time since they are considered more feminine. Today we will give you some advice on choosing skirts and trousers for many occasions and help you solve the dilemma of the century.



When you are getting ready for a usual day at the office, you should remember, that each workplace prefers a different dress code. While some places, like creative advertising agencies and etc. allow their employees to wear jeans to work, in others institutions, for instance state authorities, it is clearly forbidden. No matter where you work at, there are several choices that can suit the taste of many women. Here are a few examples:

A pair of chinos and a striped top
A pencil skirt and a jacket
A maxi skirt and a t-shirt

If you have planned a casual day at the park or a walk at the mall, you should probably consider comfort as the most important aspect. Although pants are considered a comfortable choice of clothing, some women feel even more comfortable wearing a skirt or a dress. To help you choose we have selected a few examples of clothing that can be suitable for a casual weekend:
