In other way, Feng shui Is a big superstition in China and is winning a wide popularity over the world such as in USA, Canadá and Europa.

Feng shui means "wind" and "water".  Is an ancient form of alining things in the enviroment to create harmony and good look, as health, happiness and fortune. The theory is that there is an invisible life force or energy, called ch'i  ("chee"), that circulate through all things rooms, buildings, peoples, hills, rivers and power lines.

UNIT 7: WORKPLACE PRIVACY

Privacy is the state of not being seen by others. In different companies employers are taking the option of putting cameras and others practices of monitoring what the emploees are doing during their worktime; like cameras in front of the bathrooms, even more into the bathrooms, eavesdropping on personal telephones conversations during the workday, and reading the incoming and out going e-mails. Many employers think that they have the right to keep an eye on to evaluate their emploees and care their business, but sometimes they are invading the emploees privacy and making them feel demeaned and disrespected. Many countries have a few safeguards to protect emploees' privacy, but most countries have no laws about workplace privacy.
