Top 10 Tough Laws in the World
Top 10 Tough Laws in the World
Ignorance is no defense – especially when it comes to ignorance of the laws in countries you plan to visit. While it may seem natural to study some of the general customs and laws in major foreign countries you might not expect, for example, to have to look for strange law changes in somewhere like Florida. Most places in the world are relatively easy to get along in. Some strange laws are nothing more than folklore. Every once in a while, though, you're going to run into something a bit off the wall and it's important for you to be prepared in advance.
10. DON'T FEED THE PIGEONS (ITALY)
In Italy it is illegal to feed the pigeons. Ok, that's a bit of a blanket statement. The rule actually has the potential to change from city to city. Make sure you leave the pigeons alone while you're in Venice, though – the locals are tired of cleaning up pigeon poop. You'll also want to avoid jumping into fountains, walking around without your shirt on (would you DO that as a tourist), and sitting on the sidewalk to eat your lunch. Fines range from a warning to monetary infractions anywhere from $50 to $600.
9. EATING IN PUBLIC (UNITED ARAB EMIRATES)
Before you leave for the United Arab Emirates you'll want to make sure you aren't visiting during Ramadan. During that time you are not allowed to eat or drink in public during fasting hours (ie. daylight hours) at all. Think we're kidding? Tourists have been fined up to $275 for drinking juice in public. Avoid public displays of affection as well unless you want to spend a few months in jail.
8. DON'T PAY IN CHANGE (CANADA)
Ever have the urge to empty your piggy bank of quarters and run down to the corner store? Don't do it in Canada. The Currency Act of 1985 prohibits consumers from using unreasonable amounts of coins to pay for purchases. This means you can't pay for an item in all coins (especially if it's over $10). Even the use of dollar-coins is limited. The shop owner has the right to choose whether or not he wants to take your coins but doesn't have to.
7. WASH YOUR CAR (MOSCOW)
In the beautiful city of Moscow it is illegal to drive a dirty car. The definition of dirty, however, is up in the air. Is a dirty car one on which you can draw pictures in the dust? Does it hide the license plate? Does it make the driver invisible? We suppose you'll find out if the police poll you over but the fines tend to be whatever the police decide to charge you – unless, of course, you offer him a bit of cash.
6. LEAVE YOUR HEADLIGHTS ON (DENMARK)
Studies in Denmark have shown that vehicles with their headlights on are more noticeable by other drivers than those who have their headlights off. You'd think this law would apply to night driving but it doesn't. Drivers here are required to leave their headlights on during the day as well or may face a fine of up to $100.
5. DON'T STOP ON THE AUTOBAHN (GERMANY)
You've heard of the Autobahn, right? The notorious German road where there are no speed limits? Make sure you fill your gas tank BEFORE you get on this daunting road. It's illegal to pull over on the side of this road for any reason and, if you do, it's illegal to get out and walk. You are, after all, endangering the lives of the people who are still driving at warp speeds.
4. PUT YOUR SHIRT ON (THAILAND)
In Thailand it is illegal to drive a car or motorcycle without a shirt on – regardless of how hot it is that day. Punishments range from verbal warnings to tickets costing about $10. This is no joke – the local police will pull you over.
3. DON'T KISS YOUR LOVER GOODBYE (FRANCE AND ENGLAND)
Love died a little bit on April 5th of 1910. Lovers spend so much time kissing each other goodbye at train stations that trains were actually running late. The law is relatively old, though, and really isn't enforced today – in France, that is. In Warrington Bank Quay in England, however, you'll be asked to move your goodbyes to the "kissing zone."
2. WEAR A COVER UP (GRENADA)
The folks at Grenada really do have a point. Cruisers visiting the beaches for day excursions have taken to strolling city streets in nothing but their bathing suits. In order to reign in a sense of decency, the city has instituted a fine for those who aren't wearing decent clothing off of the beaches. Fines can reach up to $270 but the local tourist boards would like you to believe that the law is not enforced. Perhaps its best to simply cover up rather than trying to find out for yourself.
1. NO GUM CHEWING (SINGAPORE)
Those with gum chewing habits may want to call it quits before heading to Singapore. The government really wants to keep the city clean and will fine you for chewing gum, feeding the birds (it causes poop) and forgetting to flush a public toilet. The only legal gum you can chew is Nicorette but you have to get it from a doctor and they will give your name to government officials to confirm you're allowed to have a wad in your mouth. These aren't the only strange laws around the world but they're certainly worth noting. Make sure you do your research before leaving on your next trip. Better safe than sorry!
I got this stuff via mail from our Blog vistor, I dont know this true or ...? Its all depend on you friends, These aren't the only strange laws around the world but they're certainly worth nothing. Make sure you do your research before leaving on your next trip. Better safe than sorry!

09.Christopher Columbus
Europe had established a land route to Asia (China and India) under the Mongol Empire. It was very long. Columbus proposed a smaller route to reach Asia. He calculated the distance based on Marinus of Tyre and judge the circumference of Earth to be approximately 25000 kilometers. Experts, however don't agree with him. Based on calculations of Eratosthenes, the circumference of the Earth was held to be 40,000 kilometers.
In 1492, the King and Queen of Spain made him "Admiral of the sea" and made him the Viceroy and Governor of the new lands.
On 3rd of August, 1492, he started his first voyage. He sailed to Canary islands. He then went to Cuba and Hispaniola. In October, he discovered an island which was named 'San Salvador' . This is the present day Bahamas.
His second voyage began on the 24th of september, 1493 and he set sail from Cadiz. First of all, he went to Canary islands and stocked up there. He then visited and named Montserrat, Antigua, Redonda, Nevis, Saint Kitts, Sint Eustatius, Saba, Saint Martin, Saint Croix, and the Virgin Islands. Then he landed at Puerto Rico. He then returned to Spain.
On the 30th May, 1498, he undertook his third voyage. He sailed from Sanlucar in Spain. In July, he landed on the island of Trinidad and in August in the Gulf of Paris. After exploring South America, he sailed to Margarita island and then he sailed to Tobago Grenada. Then he returned to Spain.
Christopher Columbus died on the 20th of May, 1506. His remains are preserved in the Cathedral of Seville in Spain borne by four statues representing the Kingdoms of Navarre, Castille, Aragon and Leon.

08.Johann Gutenberg
Johann Gutenberg invented the printing press in the 1450's, and the first book to ever be printed was a Latin language Bible, printed in Mainz, Germany. Gutenberg's Bibles were surprisingly beautiful, as each leaf Gutenberg printed was later colorfully hand-illuminated. Born as "Johann Gensfleisch" (John Gooseflesh), he preferred to be known as "Johann Gutenberg" (John Beautiful Mountain). Ironically, though he had created what many believe to be the most important invention in history.
Gutenberg was a victim of unscrupulous business associates who took control of his business and left him in poverty. Nevertheless, the invention of the movable-type printing press meant that Bibles and books could finally be effectively produced in large quantities in a short period of time. This was essential to the success of the Reformation.

07.Ts'ai Lun
Ts'ai Lun (simplified Chinese: 蔡伦; traditional Chinese: 蔡倫; pinyin: Cài Lún; Wade-Giles: T'sai Lun),courtesy name Jingzhong (敬仲), was a Chinese eunuch. He was born in ca. 50 AD in Guiyang (today Leiyang), China. He is regarded as the inventor of paper and the papermaking process, in forms recognizable in modern times as paper (as opposed to Egyptian papyrus). Although paper existed in China before Cai Lun (since the2 nd century BC), he was responsible for the first significant improvement and standardization of papermaking by adding essential new materials into its composition.He lived and served as an official at the Chinese Imperial Court at the Han Dynasty in China at about 1800 years ago. In or about the year 105 A.D., he presented Emperor Han Ho Ti with samples of paper. Chinese records do mention and credit Tsai, Lun with the invention of paper. His name is well known in China.
Tsai, Lun was a eunuch. Because he was an officer, he had the access to lots of resources, including money and human resources, for papermaking research. He was promoted by the Emperor for his invention and became wealthy. Later he got involved in palace intrigue, which led to his downfall. Finally he ended his life drinking poison. He died in 121 AD in China.
In China, before Tsai, Lun, books were made of bamboo, which were heavy and clumsy. Some books were made of silks, which were very expensive. In the West at that time, books were made of sheepskin or calfskin. Tsai, Lun improved the technology of making paper from sesame fiber. He used recycleable meterials such as bamboo, tree skin and shabby cloth to make paper. The technique of papermaking was kept as a secret for five centuries in China. In 751, some Chinese papermakers were captured by Arabs, and later paper was produced in the Middle East. The arts of papermaking gradually spread and in the twelfth century the Europeans learned the arts from the Arabs. Paper became the most common writing material in the West.
Today, paper is the most commonly used materials in human life, not just as a medium of communication. Tsai, Lun's contribution to civilization is priceless!
06.Saint Paul
According to the Acts of the Apostles, his conversion took place on the road to Damascus. Thirteen epistles in the New Testament are attributed to Paul, though authorship of six of the thirteen has been questioned. Paul's influence on Christian thinking arguably has been more significant than that of any other New Testament author.
He died in c 64-65 AD in Rome and was buried there.

05.Confucius
Confucius (Chinese: 孔子; pinyin: Kǒng zǐ; Wade-Giles: K'ung-tzu, or Chinese: 孔夫子; pinyin: Kǒng Fūzǐ; Wade-Giles: K'ung-fu-tzu), lit. "Master Kong". He was born on September 28, 551 B.C.E. – 479 B.C.E. He was a Chinese thinker and social philosopher, whose teachings and philosophy have deeply influenced Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Taiwanese and Vietnamese thought and life.
His philosophy emphasized personal and governmental morality, correctness of social relationships, justice and sincerity. These values gained prominence in China over other doctrines, such as Legalism (法家) or Taoism (道家) during the Han Dynasty (206 B.C.E. – 220 C.E.).
Confucius' thoughts have been developed into a system of philosophy known as Confucianism (儒家). It was introduced to Europe by the Italian Jesuit Matteo Ricci, who was the first to Latinise the name as "Confucius."
His teachings may be found in the Analects of Confucius (論語), a collection of "brief aphoristic fragments", which was compiled many years after his death. Modern historians do not believe that any specific documents can be said to have been written by Confucius, but for nearly 2,000 years he was thought to be the editor or author of all the Five Classics (五經) such as the Classic of Rites (禮記) (editor) , and the Spring and Autumn Annals (春秋) (author).
04.Gautama Buddha
(Sammāsambuddha) of our age.
The time of his birth and death are uncertain: most early 20th-century historians dated his lifetime as c. 563 BCE to 483 BCE. More recently, however, at a specialist symposium on this question, the
majority of those scholars who presented definite opinions gave dates within 20 years either side of 400 BCE for the Buddha's death, with others supporting earlier or later dates.
Gautama Buddha, also known as Śākyamuni or Shakyamuni ("sage of the Shakyas"), is the key figure in Buddhism, and accounts of his life, discourses, and monastic rules are believed by Buddhists to have been summarized after his death and memorized by his followers. Various collections of teachings attributed to Gautama were passed down by oral tradition, and first committed to writing about 400 years later. Early Western scholarship tended to accept the biography of the Buddha presented in the Buddhist scriptures as largely historical, but currently "scholars are increasingly reluctant to make unqualified claims about the historical facts of the Buddha's life and teachings."

03.Jesus Christ-Isa (A.S)
Academic studies remain inconclusive about the chronology, the central message of Jesus' preaching, his social class, cultural environment, and religious orientation. Scholars offer competing descriptions of Jesus as the awaited Messiah, as a self-described Messiah, as the leader of an apocalyptic movement, as an itinerant sage, as a charismatic healer, and as the founder of an independent religious movement.
Christian views of Jesus center on the belief that Jesus is divine, is the Messiah whose coming was prophesied in the Old Testament, and that he was resurrected after his crucifixion. Christians predominantly believe that Jesus is the "Son of God" (generally meaning that he is God the Son, the second person in the Trinity) who came to provide salvation and reconciliation with God by his death for their sins. Other Christian beliefs include Jesus' virgin birth, performance of miracles, ascension into Heaven, and a future Second Coming. While the doctrine of the Trinity is widely accepted by most Christians, a few groups reject as non-scriptural, wholly or partly, the doctrine of the Trinity.
In Islam, Jesus (Arabic: عيسى, commonly transliterated as Isa (A.S )) is considered one of God's important prophets, a bringer of scripture, and a worker of miracles. Jesus is also called "Messiah", but Islam does not teach that he was divine. Islam teaches that Jesus ascended bodily to heaven without experiencing the crucifixion and resurrection, rather than the traditional Christian belief of the death and resurrection of Jesus.
