How Much Does A Bmw Gina Cost

FEBRERILLO "THE LOCO.

Why February is called "The Loco "Why February has 28 days.
Y. .. Why February has only 28 days?
The calendar we have today is called" Gregorian calendar "in honor of the Pope who founded it, Gregory XIII back in the sixteenth century to correct mistakes that had hitherto existing calendar called the Julian calendar, which pulled no leap day in years ending in two zeros.
As anecdote : The application of the new calendar came to coincide with the death of St. Teresa, who died on October 4, 1582, and was buried the next day, ie October 15 the same year.
The "Julian Calendar", came from Roman times, from 46 BC
This was a solar calendar of 365 days in 12 months.
The year began with the vernal equinox in March, this being the first month and February, thus the latter.
Each of the months were devoted to:
Four gods and goddesses in Roman mythology: March, Mars, God of War. Maia May goddess of wealth. June, Juno, goddess of home and family and January to Janus, the Janus-faced: The two-sided. (Janvier in French, English January, Janeiro in Portuguese). Two
parties or events: April, on "aprilis" opening or spring flowers and February at februari parties or bonfires. Four ordinal
to their rightful: September or the seventh month, October the eighth. November and December would be the ninth, the tenth month of the year.
Finally, two of which were devoted to two separate emperors Julius Caesar and Augustus (July and August respectively).
Every month should be 30 days, which did not fit with the calendar. The ancient Egyptians solved by adding a thirteenth month of five days only. But the Romans decided to apportion the days between the months of the year, bringing the odd months have 31 days and the couple solament 30.
As it is passed in one day (6 X 30 = 180 + 6 X 31 = 186, totaling 366 days), then had to subtract one day calendario.Y Who went to remove it? The smaller, February naturally. 6 months, 31 days, 5 months of 30 and one 29. No problem. 365 days leave.
Then someone had the idea of \u200b\u200bdedicating one of the months, the fifth, Julio César. After he came Caesar Augustus, which naturally had to spend another month. No problem: the sixth. Peeeero the sixth month was nothing more than 30 days and this was a discriminatory treatment to the successor. That, nothing. August should also have 31 days (By all means) so that the whole thing is turned upside down: September and November each lost one day and won in October and December to keep alternating. But for all the gods! now we have 366 days.
What to do?
Easy. Take another day to February.
The advantage we have learned is that with two days less, we charge the same board (yes, frozen for this year). And you, whom you please, 28, is back to take New Year's Eve grapes, this is also the last month of the year, and that the madman is February, not me.
