Trailing vortex

The trailing vortex, also known, smewhat erroneously, as the 'wingtip vortex', is created due to the pressure differentials between the upper and lower sides of an aircraft wing. The resultant vorticity 'coils up' to form distinct trailin vortices, trailing from the wingtips. The assumption of perfect line-vortex systems from the wingtips is inherent in the horseshoe vortex model.
The trailing vortex was visible in the air.

Buying up products from one ebay marketplace and selling it on another ebay marketplace to make a hefty profit.

This morning I bought 20 iPhone 4s from Australia for $100 each and sold them all for $250 each in Canada. I think I might just quit my day job and become an Ebay trader because Ebay Trading just made me $3,000 richer!

Treading in black waters

Treading in black waters means you are fighting or argueing with someone and you are JUST on the verge of telling them to fuck off. You can only use this term when you are about to end an arguement or a friendship/agreement. Should be used if you are completley ready to lose this persons trust and affection.
After James starting being a smartass and splitting hairs with me about how the server operated, I warned him he was treading in black waters.
