A Celebration of Leap Day


Leap Day, February 29, occurs once every four years.

Since the Gregorian Calendar has only been in effect since 24 February 1582, February 29 2008 is only the 103th Leap Day.

Why the change to the Gregorian Calendar, which has an error of 27 seconds per year?

Because it's a great deal more accurate than its predecessors.

Gregorian calendar AD 1582 365.2425 days 27 seconds (1 day every 3,236 years)
Julian calendar 45 BC 365.25 days 11 minutes (1 day every 128 years)
365-day calendar - 365 days 6 hours (1 day every 4 years)
Lunar calendar ancient 12-13 moon-months variable

A little bit about Leap Day 2008.

"The year 2008 is a leap year. If you look at a 2008 calendar, you will see that February has five Fridays–the month begins and ends on a Friday. Between the years 1904 and 2096, leap years that share the same day of week for each date repeat only every 28 years. The most recent year in which February comprised five Fridays was in 1980, and the next occurrence will be in 2036. February 29, the leap day, has been associated with age-old traditions, superstitions and folklore."

What are the legal ramifications of being born on a day that occurs once every four years?

Not as many as you think.

When to celebrate is a matter of personal preference, and the only time having such an unusual birth date really could cause problems is in years when the exact day matters, as getting a driver's license, sipping your first legal cocktail, registering to vote or playing the slots.

Sometimes, registering on a Web site using a Feb. 29 birthday will result in "Invalid birth date," though the Honor Society of Leap Year Day Babies in Oregon, a non-profit advocacy group, offers free software that Web designers can use to avoid the error message.

Statistically, it really doesn't matter what day someone is born on, says Christopher Mrela, statistician with the Arizona Department of Health Services, which maintains the state's vital records. Age is computed by year, not actual birth date. So to celebrate a Leap Day birthday in a non-leap year is not a state concern.

One could go get their driver's license on their actual birth date--this year. But had this not been a leap year, the applicant would have had to wait until March 1.

"Just like anyone born on any other day, you can't get a driver's license on the day before you are eligible," says Cydney DeModica, spokeswoman for the state's Motor Vehicle Division.

What about gambling in Las Vegas or a glass of wine? Would a person have to wait until March 1? Based on stories from other leap-year babies, it would depend on the pit boss or bartender.

FAST FACT: [And one that we bet you'll not remember for too long after today.]

The longest time between two leap years is eight years. The last time that occurred was between 1896 and 1904. The next time will be between 2096 and 2104.

For a day that has only occured 102 times previously, a lot has happened on February 29.

The common saying above might apply to Hillary Clinton.

Or not.

At any rate, we looked for little known facts about Hillary Clinton--just because we're big trivia buffs, don't you know. And we came up with seven that we can use without seeming, well, partisan.

Take the Hillary Clinton Test. What kind of score can you achieve?

So, here are seven little-known facts about the Woman who would be President.


1. In 1969, after Hillary Diane Rodham graduated with departmental honors in political science, she worked her way across Alaska, washing dishes in Mount McKinley National Park and sliming salmon in a fish processing cannery in Valdez (which fired her and shut down overnight when she complained about unhealthy conditions).



2. In 1978, Hillary Clinton invests $1,000 in cattle futures. Within a few days she has a $5,000 profit. Before bailing out she earns nearly $100,000 on her investment. Many years later, several economists will calculate that the chances of earning such returns legally were one in 250 million.

Hillary Clinton makes a $44,000 profit on a $2,000 investment in a cellular phone franchise deal that involves taking advantage of the FCC's preference for locals, minorities and women. The franchise is almost immediately flipped to the cellular giant, McCaw.


3. It took Bill Clinton 4 years to make Hillary become his wife. They started dating in 1971. Hillary Rodham and Bill Clinton were married on October 11, 1975, in a Methodist ceremony in their living room.


4. Bill Clinton returned to the Governor's office in 1982. Only then Hillary Diane Rodham began to use the name Hillary Clinton, or sometimes "Mrs. Bill Clinton", in order to have greater appeal to voters.




5. From 1986 to 1992 Hillary Clinton was enjoying six-year tenure as a director of Wal-Mart, the nation’s largest company. Fellow board members and company executives say Mrs. Clinton used her position to champion personal causes, like the need for more women in management and a comprehensive environmental program.


6. Hillary Clinton failed the bar exam in Washington D.C.--but passed it in Arkansas.
This must have been somewhat of a blow to "The World's Smartest Woman".

But, when life gave her lemons, Hillary made lemonade. As she puts it:
"I had taken both the Arkansas and the Washington, D.C., bar exams during the summer, but my heart was pulling me toward Arkansas. When I learned that I had passed in Arkansas but failed in D.C., I thought that maybe my test scores were telling me something." --from "Living History" by Hillary Clinton.


7. Hillary Clinton became involved into a scandal about having a lesbian affair with her personal aide Huma Abedin. A new book by Edward Klein, ‘The Truth About Hillary’ is said to make some claims about Hillary Clinton having lesbian relationships.


How many of these little-known facts did you know?

Here's how you score:

0-1 answer right = Average American voter 2 answers right=== Democrat 3 answers right=== Hillary Supporter 4 answers right=== Hillary campaign contributor 5 answers right=== Political junkie 6 answers right=== Opposition research, McCain For President 7 answers right=== James Carville or Bill Hillary

"My name is Duane Dog Chapman. I've lived a hell of a life. I've been a biker, I've been a convict, I've been a husband, father, and son."

All was fairly quiet on the Dog the Bounty Hunter front last night. No statements, no threats of lawsuits--just the sound of fans scrambling to find internet petitions to sign to perhaps try and make their voices heard to TV executives to return the Dog to the air.

In the spirit of "No news is good news" at this point, we thought we'd look around for some facts about Duane "Dog" Chapman to pass along.

After reading these, you may agree that the Bounty Hunter has lived an interesting life.

Duane "Dog" Chapman's show was suspended after a racial slur on November 1, 2007. The tape of the slur was released by a national tabloid.

Duane, known for being a very religious man, was given the nickname Dog by Tom, a fellow Disciple member, because its God spelled backwards.

While Dog was imprisoned at the Texas State Penitentiary for his murder conviction, his prisoner number was 271097. He also served as the warden's barber.

Favorite television shows as a child were: The Lone Ranger, Sky King, and The Green Hornet.

One of Dog's children, Zebediah, died only 30 days after birth. The boy was premature.

Duane Chapman was arrested on September 14, 2006, in Hawaii. He was charged with illegal detention and conspiracy in an alleged kidnapping of Andrew Luster. He was initially arrested in Mexico three years ago, but failed to show up for court, which resulted in a warrant for his arrest.

Barbara Katie Chapman, one of Dog’s children, was killed in an automobile accident the day before he married Beth.

Duane dropped out of school in the seventh grade from Rishel Junior High. (edit)
Dog is part Native American, specifically the Chiricahua Apache tribe, and proud of his heritage.

Dog caught notorious Kona burglar Bryan Blair, who was lying low in Kansas City.

Dog is 5’7’’ and admits to using customized boots to increase his height to 5’10’’.

Duane has been arrested 18 times, and served time in prison for murder.

Duane “Dog” Chapman was a Kirby vacuum salesman before his bounty hunting career.

Dog started bounty hunting in 1979 to pay off child support he accrued while in prison, $200.

Dog Chapman became famous when he captured Andrew Luster in Mexico.

Dog claims to have captured 6,000+ criminals.

Dog has been married 5 times: LaFonda, Ann, Lyssa, Tawny, and Beth. He also has 12 children, 11 of which are his own. Cecily, who is Beth's daughter from her first marriage, is not Dog's biological daughter but he considers her his own.

Dog has a son named Tucker,sentenced 20 years in prison for armed robbery.
--Source: TV.com

The Dog certainly has lived through some interesting times.

Of course, one famous Chinese curse states "May you live in interesting times".
