????? A Baker’s Dozen

tolleystopicsLeave a comment

A “dozen” means twelve, so why does a “baker’s dozen” mean 13? Well, back in medieval England, bakers were small business owners who didn’t have access to accurate measuring equipment. They just used their eyes and their years of experience to estimate their size and weight of the loaves they baked. The problem was that it was against the law for bakers and other traders to sell goods that were under the indicated weight. If a baker sold a dozen loaves, and they turned out to be short of the required weight, their reputation could be ruined , or worse yet, they could be fined or banned from their trade if the customer in question was influential.

So, to protect themselves, when bakers sold a dozen loaves, they’d toss in an extra one, making a total of thirteen. This tradition stuck through the centuries, and even as accurate scales became available to bakers, they still kept giving their customers an extra loaf as an incentive to encourage loyalty.

Maybe Communist Cuba is about to crumble.   If Trump keeps  the pressure on Communists and terrorists, the only ones left will be the American Democrat Party.

A Year for K2-315b
Artist’s Illustration Credit: NASA Ames/JPL-Caltech/T. Pyle, Christine Daniloff, MIT

Explanation: Want to visit a planet that has 3.14 days in a year? Then plan a trip to K2-315b, an earth-sized planet orbiting around a cool, red, M dwarf star about once every 3.14 days. The exoplanet’s discovery, based on publicly available data from the planet-hunting Kepler Space Telescope’s extended K2 mission, was announced in 2020. K2-315b’s measured orbital period in days is nearly equal to the extremely popular irrational number Pi. That puts the exoplanet so close to its parent star that its surface is likely very warm, baking-hot in fact. And this Pi planet is over 185 light-years away. So instead of trying to arrange for an interstellar vacation to K2-315b, there may be easier and more comfortable ways for you to celebrate Pi day on planet Earth.

Today is Friday 13…Why is it considered Unlucky?

tolleystopicsLeave a comment

Friday the 13th is considered unlucky because it combines two long-standing, separate superstitions: the unluckiness of the number 13 and the unluckiness of Fridays. While both have ancient roots, historians believe they only merged into a single “super-superstition” around the 19th century.

Biblical & Religious Origins

The most cited origin is the Last Supper, where 13 people (Jesus and his 12 apostles) sat at a table the night before Jesus’s crucifixion on a Friday.

  • The 13th Guest: Judas Iscariot, who betrayed Jesus, is often identified as the 13th guest to arrive.

  • Crucifixion Friday: Since Jesus was crucified on a Friday, the day itself became associated with sorrow and misfortune in Christian tradition.

  • Other Biblical Events: Some traditions suggest Friday was also the day Eve gave Adam the forbidden apple, Cain killed Abel, and the Great Flood began.

Norse Mythology

A similar “13th guest” myth appears in Norse lore. At a banquet in Valhalla for 12 gods, the trickster god Loki arrived uninvited as the 13th guest and arranged for the beloved god Balder to be killed, plunging the world into darkness.

Mathematical and Cultural Factors

  • 12 vs. 13: In many cultures, 12 is seen as the number of “completeness” (12 months, 12 zodiac signs, 12 hours on a clock, 12 tribes of Israel). Because 13 follows this “perfect” number, it is often viewed as irregular or unsettling.

  • Knights Templar: On Friday, October 13, 1307, King Philip IV of France ordered the mass arrest of the Knights Templar. While some believe this is the true origin, historians note this connection was likely popularized much later by books like The Da Vinci Code.

  • Modern Media: The superstition was further cemented by Thomas W. Lawson’s 1907 novel Friday, the Thirteenth and the popular Friday the 13th horror film franchise.

Fast Facts

  • Phobia Names: The fear of the number 13 is triskaidekaphobia, while the fear of Friday the 13th is paraskevidekatriaphobia or friggatriskaidekaphobia.

  • Cultural Variations: In Italy, Friday the 17th is considered the unluckiest day, while in Spanish-speaking countries and Greece, Tuesday the 13th is the day to avoid.

  • Common Behaviors: To avoid “bad luck,” many buildings skip the 13th floor, and some airlines omit row 13.
