| ARTICLES RELATED TO leap years |  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Gregorian calendar - Proleptic Gregorian calendarThe Gregorian calendar can, for certain purposes, be extended backwards to dates preceding its official introduction, producing the proleptic Gregorian Calendar. However, this proleptic calendar should be used with great caution.
For ordinary purposes, the dates of events occurring prior to 15 October 1582 are generally shown as they appeared in the Julian calendar, and not converted into their Gregorian equivalents.
However, events occurring in countries where the Gregorian calendar was introduced later than 4 October 1 ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Gregorian calendar - Confusion with British vs. American usageDates of events in Britain prior to 1752 are usually now shown in their original Old Style form, whereas dates of events in (then British) America prior to 1752 are usually now shown in the New Style form.
For example, Shakespeare died on 23 April (OS), and it is rare to see this converted to 3 May (NS). But while George Washington was born on 11 February (OS), his birthday is now celebrated on 22 February (N ...

| | |  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Julian calendar - Lengths of the monthsAccording to the 13th century scholar Sacrobosco, the original scheme for the months in the Julian Calendar was very regular, alternately long and short. From January through December, the month lengths according to Sacrobosco for the Roman Republican calendar were:
30, 29, 30, 29, 30, 29, 30, 29, 30, 29, 30, and 29, totaling 354 days.
He then thought that Julius Caesar added one day to every month except February, a total of 11 more days, giving the year 365 days. A leap day could now be added to the extra short February:
31, 2 ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Julian calendar - From Roman to JulianThe ordinary year in the previous Roman calendar consisted of 12 months, for a total of 355 days. In addition, an intercalary month, the Mensis Intercalaris, was sometimes inserted between February and March. This intercalary month was formed by inserting 22 days before the last five days of February, creating a 27-day month. It began after a truncated February having 23 or 24 days, so that it had the effect of adding 22 or 23 days to t ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Julian calendar - Naming of the monthsImmediately after the Julian reform, the twelve months of the Roman calendar were named Ianuarius, Februarius, Martius, Aprilis, Maius, Iunius, Quintilis, Sextilis, September, October, November, and December, just as they were before the reform. Their lengths were set to their modern values. The old intercalary month, the Mensis Intercalaris, was abolished and replaced with a single intercalary day at the same point (i.e. five days before the end of Februarius). The first month of the year ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Julian calendar - From Julian to GregorianThe Julian calendar was in general use in Europe from the times of the Roman Empire until 1582, when Pope Gregory XIII promulgated the Gregorian Calendar, which was soon adopted by most Catholic countries. The Protestant countries followed later, and the countries of Eastern Europe even later. Great Britain had Thursday 14 September 1752 follow Wednesday 2 September 1752. Sweden adopted the new style calendar in 1753, but also for a twelve-year period starting in 1700 used a modified Julian Calendar. Russia remained on the Julian calendar un ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - French Republican Calendar - Criticism and shortcomings of the calendarLeap years in the calendar are a point of great dispute, due to the contradicting statements requiring the year to start at the autumnal equinox while adding a leap day every 4 years (like the Gregorian calendar). The years III, VII, and XI were observed as leap years, and the years XV and XX were also planned as such.
A fixed arithmetic rule for determining leap years was proposed in the name of the Committee of Public Education by Gilbert Romme on 19 Floréal An III (8 May 1795). The proposed rule was to ...

| | |  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - Wayne Corporation - The Thyssen-Bornemisza Years 1975-1984It seems that most of what one can learn about Indian Head after the Thyssen-Bornemisza acquisition is very limited. As a privately-owned entity, there were no requirements for annual reports or public filings. However, what can be found seem to indicate that Thyssen spent much of the next 8-10 years selling off or closing its North American investments.
In the late 1970s and early 1980s, the portions of Thyssen-Bor ...

RTC acquired Wayne Corporation and its Welles subsidiary in Canada in February, 1985.
Several successful years followed. The Chaperone and Chaperone II products on cutaway chassis did well, and several Wayne dealer-contractors were expanding, most notably Laidlaw. In the fall of 1986, the company was preparing to launch an initial public stock off ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - French Republican Calendar - Converting to Gregorian CalendarThe calendar was abolished in the year XIV (1805). After this date, opinions seem to differ on the method by which the leap years would have determined if the calendar were still in force. There are several hypotheses used to convert dates to the Gregorian calendar, of which these three seem to be the most significant:
The leap years would continue to vary in order to ensure that each year the autumnal equinox falls on 1 Vendémiaire, as was the case from year I to year XIV.
The leap year would have jumped after year 15 ...

|  |  |  | leap years: Encyclopedia II - New Year - Historical dates for the new yearThe ancient Roman calendar had only ten months and started the year on 1 March, which is still reflected in the names of some months which derive from Roman numerals: September (Seventh), October (Eighth), November (Ninth), December (Tenth). Around 715 BC the months of January, February and Mercedonius were added to the end of the year (Mercedonius in leap years only). Because consuls were chosen in January, and because years were named after the consuls who served in that year, January became the de facto beginning of the year. In 45 BC Julius Caesar introduced the Julian calendar, dropping Mercedon ...
