In my opinion, superstitions are myths that not only ancestors created, but also people want to preserve. It's important that we know about different culture myths. They are interesting like numerical Superstitions. nathaly_imm https://padlet.com/nathaly_imm/gc8hysghe2ib/wish/138994360 1. Many cultures consider 7 as lucky number. But in China, this number means abandon, anger and death. The Seventh month of the Chinese Calendar is called "The Ghost Month" and it's believed that ghosts are released then. On the other hand, the origine of the believes in number seven is most often associated with good luck. It is because in the ancient time only 7 planets were visible in the sky; the Moon, the Sun, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Saturn and Jupiter. This may explain why ancient cultures adopted seven gods.
2. Three sixes in a row give some people the chills, In the book of the Revelation, 666 is given as the number of the "Beast", and is often interpreted as the mark of Satan. This number appeared once on the Greek Book of Revelation in the passage 13:15-18. In this manuscript is title The Apocalupse of Jhon. However, as the Anthropologist Phillips Stevens said, these sixes are equivalent of the Hebrew letters for the first-century Roman Emperor Nero.
3. The most common, is Friday 13th. Friday has long been considered an unlucky day by Christian tradition because they believe that Jesus died on Friday, and 13 has a long history as an unlucky number either Nordic legend that told about 12 gods sitting down to a banquet when the 13 (uninvited) god, Loki, shows up. Loki killed one of other gods which led to events that eventually resulted in Ragnarok (The death of gods, the chaos in the earth) or Christian believes where Judas Iscariot is who betrayed Jesus. Also, appart of religius believes, the Apollo 13 was other reason why people see 13 as an unlucky number. If you don't know the history, it has been the only unsuccessful moon mision; an oxygen tank exploted two days latter of the start day. Affortunetly, people who were in there could come back to earth alive.]]> 2016-11-21 04:16:47 UTC https://padlet.com/nathaly_imm/gc8hysghe2ib/wish/138994360 Task 4 Feedback absolutjamie https://padlet.com/nathaly_imm/gc8hysghe2ib/wish/139203200 I really like this, it's like a tutorial!

His plans changed when he had to fly out of Doha to Qatar Airways. He said that this airline is fantastic, the problem is that pornography is illegal there and they consider the famous magazine Men's Health as that. "Upon discovering the mag in my carry-on, they pulled me out of line and retrieved my checked bag, which contained tons of military gear (thankfully no weapons)." said Darwins. He should spend near to two days in the cell, sleeping and getting questioned.

Tips.

1. If you gone to any country, you should know each illegal object. No matter which country you will go. It's important that you know the country's politics in order to avoid problems with simple things like a magazine as you can read.
2. If you learn about East tradition, you will have some ideas to how treat them. Maybe you know that in this part of Asia people are to estrict by the Corán and a lot of rules of tradition, so it's critical that you learn how communicate with those people and don't make a mistake or something as insult for them.
3. Had Darwins checked his package, he wouldn't have to spend two days on the cell. As you can understand, he had a little knowledge about illegal things in Qatar, but he did not remember about what he carry on.
