Shopping Becomes An Addiction
The world addiction usually makes you think of alcohol or drugs, but in modern-day society we are seeing some new kinds of addictions. Some people are compulsive shoppers. Others find it impossible to pull themselves away from their work. Still others spend countless hours gambling or even surfing the Internet. What causes them to become addicted? What effects do their compulsive behavior have on their lives and the lives of people around them?Over the years, shopping has become a very common activity. Many people enjoy going to malls or stores more and more everyday, but it’s more than a common hobby for some of them. They have turned into shopaholics. They are people who simply enjoy shopping and walking around spending money without being able to stop doing it. They are hooked on shopping and usually buy things that they don’t need. Even though they don’t have enough money, they buy everything they want.
The question is: why do they have this addiction? There isn’t a
specific answer. Some people go shopping when they are sad, worried, upset or lonely and they want to feel better. They use this activity as a way to forget their problems. Shopaholics say that they feel more important and better after they buy something. They also tend to have this addiction when they feel guilty. For example, a husband might buy very expensive presents for his family to try to make up for his luck of love for them.We are used to thinking that women enjoy shopping more than men but according to some studies, that’s not true. Men really like shopping because they feel they have power and control. They get whatever they want. Also, men usually buy big items while women spend their money on clothes, cosmetics, decorations for their houses, or things for family.
Shopaholism seems to be a harmless addition, but the fact is it can cause many problems. Some of them can be psychological and in that case, people addicted to shopping should go to a support group or learn about behavior therapies to help them break this habit. However, the process, like for most addictions, is long, and they suffer a lot. It can also cause financial problems. They just think about satisfying their feelings, so they spend money they don’t have. They get deep in debt, and they can even go bankrupt and get sent to jail.

Work Wear
On an average, an employee spends one third of his life on a job. Each organisation endeavours to provide a safe work environment to its employees. It is particularly important when the work environment is more vulnerable to accidents. Work wear is one of the many aspects of safety at work.
For example, labourers and supervisors working on a road-based project need to wear high visibility jackets to be more noticeable when walking on the road. Construction work sites face a great deal of chance for eye infections due to the presence of dust. In accordance, it becomes important to protect one’s eyes by wearing eye goggles. Likewise, safety wear is desirable when handling a 
job involving chemicals, toxins or oil. Such workers tend to wear safety glasses, lest they may lose eye sight. Each item in the work wear is meant to serve a particular purpose. Workers handling or lifting heavy weights or equipment or those working with unguarded machinery tend to wear footwear that not only protects their feet, but also helps with smooth working. Steel blue boots, metal toe-capped boots or shoes with additional puncture resistant soles are some of the varieties that are usually prescribed as a part of work clothes, based on subjective conditions.
Everyone who goes to a workplace is supposed to follow a dress code. The dress code not only represents the profession one belongs to, but has some integral role to play at work. Be it a doctor or a lawyer, a mechanic or a mason – their work clothes mean more than their professional identification.

Northern Ireland
Northern Ireland (often called “Ulster” after an ancient Irish Kingdom which once existed in that part of Ireland) is the smallest of the four nations, both in area and population. With only 1.5 million people, it is smaller than many Chinese cities. Its capital, Belfast, is a relatively small town of around 350,000 people, but is much the biggest city in the province. Though Northern Ireland is small it is significant because of the political troubles there.Physically, it is mostly rural, with low hills, a beautiful district in the south-west, and a rugged coastline, which includes its most famous landmark, the “Giant’s Causeway”, a rocky promontory made up of black hexagonal columns formed by cooling lava millions of years ago. Legend has it that the giant
Finn Macool built it to cross the sea to Scotland. The nature of its link to Great Britain has been a key element in Northern Ireland’s history, and remains an issue today.The Northern Ireland economy has its problems, partly as a result of the troubles discouraging investment, partly as a result of its peripherality in relation to the UK. Its wealth per head is the lowest of any UK region. Nevertheless living costs are also comparatively low, and a standard of living is possible for those of middle to upper incomes which many Londoners might envy. Industrial companies there include the aircraft manufacturers, Shorts, who build small commuter aircraft, as well as parts for other manufactures such as Boeing, and the UK’s largest shipbuilders, Harland and Woolf.
