    The Torn Identity: Ripped Jeans on the Runway and at Home

    April 4, 2025 - By 

    Torn jeans are hardly unusual. I’m wearing a pair with rips at the knees right now. I know that in the past, hole-y clothing was considered a sign of poverty, but these days it’s much more of a norm. I don’t feel comfortable wearing ripped jeans to a nice restaurant or party, but for everyday, I even like the look. Quick semi-related joke: Why did the rabbi get wet? Because his umbrella was hole-y! Har, har. Frayed hems Back to the point – I’m used to jeans with the knees worn out, with frayed hems and threadbare bums (well, to…

    April 2, 2025 - By 

    Smart Home Technology When people think about smart home technology, they often picture it being so futuristic that its end-of-life cycle is meaningless.

    Just Because It Still Fits Doesn’t Mean You Should Wear It

    April 1, 2025 - By 

    Just because you can still fit into it, doesn’t mean you should keep it around. Have you seen the commercial on TLC where the woman is like, “I can’t believe this still fits,” and she is wearing an awful yellow blazer with huge shoulder pads? Yeah, you shouldn’t keep anything around for too long, unless it has sentimental value; they by all means keep it, but don’t wear it outside. Cut it up and sew it into a pillow if you must. Every 6 months, you should re-evaluate your closet and toss everything you haven’t worn. Some guidelines: •If it…

    Sometimes Buying Cheap Is Buying Stupid

    April 1, 2025 - By 

    Recently, I bought the best pair of shoes I’ve ever owned. They are the Clarks Escalade, and they are pictured above. For a while, I had been searching for a brown shoe that wasn’t too dressy but wasn’t too casual. Something that could go with jeans on a fairly regular basis, but could also go with khakis or other outfits that were a bit dressy without being suit-and-tie. This pair of Clarks completely fits the bill. I’ve been getting compliments on them left and right. I’m tempted to buy a pair in black. Depending on whether you are a clothes…

    In The Battle Against Pediatric AIDS, How EGPAF Saved Lives Using Microsoft BI? EGPAF (Egyptian Glaser Pediatric AIDS Foundation) is a well-known international Non-Governmental Organization(NGO) dedicated to the treatment and prevention of Pediatric HIV. After the exceptional advances in the medical field, most people in developed nations see HIV/AIDS as a manageable and preventable disease, and no longer an emerging universal or an end of life for those who are infected. But in the universal battle against pediatric HIV/AIDS, the scenario and numbers are different. With Microsoft’s effective Business Intelligence and analytics tools and the efforts of its staff, EGPAF…
