Do you suffer from nomophobia?  If you can't stand being away from your phone, then you probably do.  Nomophobia is a new, made-up term that's short for "no mobile phobia."  It started in Great Britain, where they call phones "mobiles."Symptoms include getting anxious when you don't have your phone, worrying about losing it, keeping an extra phone in case yours breaks, and bringing your phone to bed.  Ok, that is a little extreme....I think I am cell addicted and find myself looking for ppl to call sometimes, for no apparent reason.  But not in bed. Two out of three people in a recent survey said they have one or more of those symptoms, which is up 13% from a similar survey four years ago.

70% of women say they're nomophobes, compared to 61% of men.  And 77% of people under age 25 are nomophobic.

NO BLACK SABBATH TOUR....WTF?

Black Sabbath have called off their reunion tour as a result of guitarist Tony Iommi's ongoing battle with cancer.

They'll play just one show from the planned dates, at the UK's Download Festival in June. The previously announced shows
will be performed by singer Ozzy Osbourne and bassist Geezer Butler with guest artists including Zakk Wylde and Slash.

The metal giants announced they'd started
work on the first album featuring their original lineup last year – but almost immediately ran into trouble, with Iommi revealing he'd been diagnosed with lymphoma, then drummer Bill Ward saying he hadn't been offered a contract he
found "signable.

The Black Sabbath reunion recently hit a snag when drummer Bill Ward went public to advise fans that he had been presented with an agreement that he did not feel comfortable signing, while also disrespecting his role as one of the founders of the lengendary metal pioneers.

Ozzy, Tony Iommi and Geezer Butler responded with their own statement, saying “we have no choice but to continue recording without him although our door is always open.”
Ward has been flooded with support by Sabbath fans, who want to see the full original lineup intact and appear - as advertised – by band management.

Now, Ward’s son, Aron, has posted a lengthy Facebook message (here) responding to rumors and speculation that his father has done something wrong, or that he’s simply “greedy” because he received a contract that, in good faith and conscience, he could neither sign or live with.

Here’s a snippet of Aron’s remarks:

"The press is spinning this sh*tstorm to read as if my dad has quit. This is not true. The guys know that. That's why they said the door is ALWAYS open.

"My dad hasn't 'declined' playing with Black Sabbath or 'threatened' to pull out of this reunion. As he stated, his bags are packed and he's ready to go. He says it loud and clear, he definitely wants to play on the album and he definitely wants to tour.

"Up 'till about three weeks ago, he was working extremely hard and close with the other three on this album/reunion tour. He was in very good spirits and sounded excited to be writing with Tony, Geezer and Ozzy again.

"'Don't be so greedy': he is by no means greedy, man. If he was, he would have settled with whatever contract given him. It's kind of obvious someone else is greedy. Wake up. He lives in a modest home in Southern California. Pays rent like the rest of us. In case you're still blind, look at it this way — sadly, the current 'Sabbath' statement reads as if someone would rather see the remaining members play in front of thousands of disappointed, confused and resentful fans then give my dad a dignified agreement. Additionally, the record sales will be severely affected because it isn't the promised original lineup. All this because of someone's inability to respect him as the committed founding member he is. This has derailed the fans' hopes of seeing the original lineup and strongly divided the fans. What a way to f**k up such a powerful, influential and inspirational legacy for the rest of time.

"To Terry ([a.k.a. Geezer] my godfather), Ozzy (my friend when I was little) and Tony (towering hero), I hope that you will listen to your fans. They want all of you together. As YOU are Black Sabbath, so is my Dad. I hope you guys can work it out."

Put one on the scoreboard for the parents. Every snot nosed teen should watch this. They'll either know how lucky they are or fear it could happen to them. This is so relatable, if you have kids, you will be amazed.  WARNING: cuss words on here, view at own risk. :)

GISELE BUNDCHEN has taken so much flak for cussing out TOM BRADY'S receivers after the Super Bowl, that it's nice to see she's got a few people in her corner.

DONALD TRUMP is one of them . . . although is it surprising in the least to see him come to the aid of a hot chick?

-He says, quote, "She's standing up for her man and Gisele didn't do anything wrong.  She's standing up for her man and she happened to be right.  They were dropping balls all over the place."

Some of the ladies working for Gisele's former employer, Victoria's Secret, have her back, too.  LINDSAY ELLINGSON says, quote, "I don't think she meant anything bad by what she said and she was just so passionate, I don't blame her.  [She was] standing up for her man."--And ADRIANA LIMA adds, quote, "Leave her alone

And finally, two New York Giants are sticking up for Gisele.

Receiver VICTOR CRUZ says, quote, "It's cool, she's defending her husband and I understand that.  I wouldn't want it any other way.  I think she's the only one who vocalized what New England fans were thinking, that's why she's probably getting the most grief about it."

And Giants offensive lineman CHRIS SNEE adds, quote, "You know, sometimes things are said.  Obviously it's a very disappointing loss for them and obviously she was upset for her husband, so . . ."

However, I dont see any of the Patriots players letting her off the hook....what do u think?
