Leap year is a once-in-four-year event, so make today, February 29, 2016, extra special. Take that extra LEAP.
Happy Leap Year Day!
Once every four years, an extra day is added to the month of February, taking it from 28 to 29 days.
NOTE: The WordPress writing prompt for February 29, 2016, today is Leap: a one word prompt. Since this is Leap Day I offer this post.
The Earth orbits the sun once every 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes and 47 seconds (365.2421 days), but our calendar is only 365 days long. There must be a shortfall adjustment.
The idea is not new. It dates back to the ancient Egyptians, who were the first to realize the need for a leap year. However, the Romans first brought it into practice in Europe.
About 46 B.C., Julius Caesar introduced the first leap year with the Julian calendar having only one rule: any year evenly divisible by four would be a leap year. However, that created too many leap years.
The math wasn't tweaked until Pope Gregory XIII introduced his Gregorian calendar more than 1,500 years later, creating a leap year every year that is divisible by four except for years that are both divisible by 100 and not divisible by 400.
Thus, the year 2000 was a leap year, but the years 1700, 1800 and 1900 are not.
The extra day was added to February because Roman emperors named months after themselves (July and August, for example). The emperors kept on poaching extra days to make their months longer, a kind of "mine is longer than yours" competition. February was left short at 28 days, and was the obvious choice to even out the calendar.
Even with the extra day, February remains the shortest month, a fact that school children learn through a medieval English rhyme that ends "…all the rest have 31 except for February alone and that has 28 days clear and 29 in each leap year."
FYI: Modern Olympics are always held in a Leap Year. This year's Olympics will be Rio de Janiero in Brazil. A Leap Year also marks the US Presidential elections.
There are interesting traditions connected with Leap Day.
The tradition giving women the right to propose to men on Leap Day dates back to 5th Century Ireland when St Brigid allegedly struck a deal with St Patrick for permission to do this. The best luck goes to those women who wear pants or a red petticoat (to give sharp-eyed suitors fair warning) while down on one knee…the fine (set down by Queen Margaret of Scotland) for scorning a woman's proposal is either 12 pairs of gloves (to hide the naked ring finger) or a silk dress.
At the time leap year day had no recognition in English law (the day was 'leapt over' and ignored, hence the term 'leap year'). It was decided that the day had no legal status a break in tradition on this day was acceptable.
Persons born on February 29th have exclusive membership to the The Honour Society of Leap Year Day Babies…websites include the option for February 29 birth date when signing up…the society boasts more than 10,000 members of the 4 million Leap Year babies globally.
The law allows persons born in on February 29th to attain the age of 18 on March 1 of their eighteenth year, even though leaplings won't celebrate their 18th birthday for almost 8 decades.
The city of Anthony, Texas, which sits across the border of two American states (they are twin cities—Anthony, Texas, and Anthony, New Mexico) has nominated itself the Leap Year Capital of the World. It holds a four-day festival, which includes a huge birthday party for Leap Day babies, to celebrate the occasion
The chance of being born on leap day is about 1 in 1,461. Persons born on February 29th can be called a 'leapling' or a 'leaper'.
- Tony Robbins, motivational speaker
- Jimmy Dorsey, jazz musician
- Dennis Farina, actor
- Antonio Sabato Jr., actor
- Ja Rule, rapper/actor
- Pope Paul III (born 1468)
- Gioacchino Rossini (born 1792), composer
- Aileen Wuornos, notorious American serial killer (born 1956)
- Wendi Peters, former Coronation Street star
- Darren Ambrose, the Crystal Palace midfielder
Three consecutive generations of the Keogh family have been born on February 29th. Peter Anthony was born in Ireland in 1940, his son Peter Eric was born in 1964 and Eric's daughter Bethany was born in 1996.
The romantic comedy Leap Year, about a would-be bride's quest to propose to her elusive boyfriend, was released in 2010 to tepid reviews.
The Leap Day William spoof on American television claimed that the character 'Leap Dave' visited children on Leap Day to trade their tears for candy.
February 29th in the leap year of 1504 was successful for Christopher Columbus. The famous explorer had been marooned for several months on the small island of Jamaica. Though the island natives had initially offered food and provisions, Columbus' arrogant and overbearing attitude had so annoyed the natives that they stopped this altogether. Facing starvation, Columbus came up with an inspired plan. Consulting a shipboard almanac and finding that a lunar eclipse was due, he called together the native chiefs and announced to them that God would punish them if they did not supply his crew with food. And as an omen of God's intent to punish them, there would be a sign in the sky: God would darken the Moon. Right on cue, the lunar eclipse started. Columbus dramatically disappeared into his cabin as the natives began to panic and begged him to restore the Moon. After more than an hour, Columbus emerged from his cabin and announced that God was prepared to withdraw his punishment if the natives agreed to supply him and his crew with everything they needed. The native chiefs immediately agreed, and within minutes the Moon started emerging from shadow, leaving the natives in awe of Columbus' power. Columbus continued to receive food and supplies until he was rescued in June 1504.
February 29 is Rare Disease Day. There are about 7000 diseases considered rare. Examples include Crohns Disease and Tourette Syndrome.
St. Oswald's Day is named after the archbishop of York who died on February 29, 992. This day is celebrated on that date every leap year and on February 28 on regular years.

I LOVE cheese. In any shape, form, or fashion. Yes, I even like the string cheese from a can. One of my favorite forms of cheese is in the form of a cheese ball.

The weather here is finally under 90 degrees! It is simply amazing! I can go outdoors and breathe normally without feeling like I'm breathing through a warm, wet sponge. (Ugh.)

Do you want to learn how to play dart cricket like a pro?
Darts is the unofficial favorite bar game, followed by billiards and beer pong. (By the way, you can find the perfect table for that, here) .
Dart cricket games blend strategy and skill to edge out your opponent for the win. It's challenging, fun, and the rules are simple enough to teach on the fly. No wonder why dart cricket is one of the most common dart games played in the United States. In this article, you'll learn all about dart cricket, as well as tips and strategies to win the game.
If this is your first time playing darts, you'll need to familiarize yourself with the basics of throwing darts. Here's a short video tutorial featuring Darts Pro Player John Norman Jr. on how to throw darts the right way:
Just like any other sport, the game of Darts has a consistent set of rules that are applied on every kind of darts game.
Dart cricket blends in strategies with skills. Before playing dart cricket, familiarize yourself first with the rules of the game:
Dart cricket may have more rules than other darts games, but once you're familiar with how the game plays out, you'll find out that dart cricket has one of the easiest rules to follow in Darts.
Let's play the game, shall we?
Playing Dart Cricket is easy. Just follow the simple step-by-step instructions and you'll be having loads of fun playing Dart Cricket with your friends in no time.
The sequence for throwing darts is decided by the "diddle". Each side would be given one shot from the throwing line to try and land the closest dart to the middle. If the first player misses the board, or if the dart bounces off the dartboard, the next player would simply have to throw a dart that stays on the board in order to win the "diddle".
The first team or player to throw in a game is given an advantage because it puts the pressure on the trailing player. In Dart Cricket, the trailing player is at an even bigger disadvantage because the first player to throw would be given the first opportunity to close a number out.
Each turn you'll be given three darts to throw. Your objective for each turn would be to close out a number or to score points for your team.
Here's where the fun starts.
Strategy matters in Dart Cricket. You can try to close out a number before your opponent does and try to rack up as many points as possible until your opponent closes out the number. Ideally, a player would try to hit the 20 mark as it racks up the most points per dart thrown. Try to aim for the highest number available to get as many points as you can before your opponent does!
In Dart tournaments, there would be a designated person who would tally the scores. In most games, you would have to keep track of your own scores. Remember to keep track of your scores after every round.
Your first and second hit on a target would be marked as intersecting diagonal lines to make an X. Your first hit could be marked with a forward slash / and your second hit could be marked with a backward slash \, creating an X. Your third hit to close out the number would be marked as a circle around the X, like so – Ⓧ. Once both teams have closed out a number, a line would be drawn across the number to signify that the number is closed out.
Don't focus on closing out. Score some points too!
You can't win the game if you're trailing in points. Scores are counted on darts landed on target numbers that you have closed, but are yet to be closed by your opponent. If you manage to close out 20, then hitting a double inside the 20 zone would score 40 for a single dart. You would be able to score on the target until your opponent closes the target out.
If you find yourself trailing your opponent, a good strategy could still give you the win.
If your opponent closed out more numbers than you, you could still focus on hitting the numbers your opponent has yet to close on his side to rack up points and prevent your opponent from winning the game based on closed targets.
But don't get too comfortable.
If you are behind on points, you can focus on hitting your highest closed target before moving on to lower targets. Aim for the numbered targets first and save the bullseye for last. The bullseye is the most challenging target to hit, and it would likely be the chokepoint of the game if the game drags on. Make sure that you are up by a good margin in points before spending your turns trying to hit the bullseye.
It's cool to be competitive, but at the end of the day, the sport is all about having fun. Darts Cricket isn't as complex as the other games you can play indoors, which is why it's easy to have fun while playing it with your friends. Remember to enjoy the company you have when playing the game, and you'll have plenty of opportunities to enjoy dart cricket with your friends in the future.
There you have it! dart cricket rules are easy to follow, but in case you forget the rules of the game, you'll always have this article to look back on.
Here are some points to remember when playing dart cricket.
Learn from this.
The game of darts is played by many with reckless abandon, but you shouldn't play it as such. Studies have shown that darts can cause serious injuries. A dart is a sharp object, and you should treat it in the same way you treat knives and other sharp objects.
Learning how to play dart cricket is easy. Don't be overwhelmed with the rules. Just enjoy the game and let the game play itself out. Since dart cricket is one of the most popular dart games around, you'd have no problems looking for new people to play with. Mastering darts take time. Just keep practicing, and you'd be a pro dart cricket player in no time.
Based on our own, personal experience, the difference in performance of an affordable dart brand and an expensive one can be more enjoyed by a true professional of the sport. Recreational players may not notice or enjoy the difference as much as a professional does.
Just like any other sport, practice matters in the game of darts. It's all about the proper form, aim, release, and follow through.Practice hones your muscle memory and it lets you get better every time you play.
Leaving your dartboard outdoors would expose it to the elements that would greatly diminish the quality of your dartboard. Moisture can be absorbed by your dartboard, which could loosen up the fibers that make up your board and make it difficult for your darts to land on the board. Rust can also damage the metal wires on the board.
You won't need to spend much to play darts. A decent dartboard and a set of decent darts cost roughly $80. The best part is, decent dartboards last for a long time, and you can hang them in your man cave to play whenever you like, or simply as a decorative piece.
What says class better than a feces pun proudly displayed in your guest bathroom? This lavatory mist features jasmine and red tea, but the real star is the image of Pootin sitting on his horse, with a caption above him saying "I cover your filthy secrets. I bring odor to its knees".
You're really not supposed to drink more than a glass of wine, but you feel like you could gulp down the entire bottle? This wine glass was made to help with that exact problem! Big enough to hold a whole bottle, this glass has I Only Have Time for ONE Glass of Wine written on it in huge, block letters.
Make sure no one ever comes near your spare keys! Let's face it – doormats and flower pots don't make for the best hiding spots. After all, it's where everybody keeps them. But hiding them inside fake, but realistic dog poop will surely do the trick of repelling potential thieves.
If your cat could talk, you'd definitely get into trouble for buying this. But she can't, so you can go about your business, trying to make your loved ones think she can. This gift box is empty, but it features images of the animal translator collar that's allegedly inside.
If regular journal keeping just isn't something you can see yourself doing, Keri Smith has the right task for you. In Wreck This Journal, she invites you to poke holes through pages, deface scrapbook photos, and the like. If you're wondering what exactly you'd end up with, you know what to do.
Be the author of the next book you'll read. If that sounds interesting, get your hands on Finish This Book, the work of bestselling author Keri Smith and, of course, yourself. You'll start by undergoing secret intelligence training, but nobody really knows where your journey will take you.
There's no way to track time that's quite as mesmerizingly beautiful as with this unique hourglass. Placed on an elegant wooden base, it uses a hidden magnet to pull down ferrous sand. While falling, the sand creates lovely stalagmites you can admire for a lot longer than the one-minute countdown.
Take your gaming sessions to a whole other level by using a great-looking, high-performance keyboard. Its top-quality injection molded keycaps make it perfect for gamers, programmers and writers alike. LED effects with three different brightness settings add a touch of cool to your devices.
Learn how to take truly stunning photos without having to memorize any technical terms. This book contains only information that's useful to you when you're ready to snap that perfect shot. Not to mention that it's packed with gorgeous examples of professional photography.
If clothes make the man, do they make pets, too? If so, you're in for a real treat! This cat outfit includes a sheriff onesie and a hat with a badge. They're easy to put on, so you don't have to worry about your pet getting mad at you. And then they can go exercise their right to boss everyone around.

In January 2018 we had the joy of producing four high-end videos for Turner Broadcasting in the middle of South African summer. Here's what they had to say about the process...
Working with Howard from Fyvie Films was a smooth and seamless process. He was professional, creative and always responded immediately with any queries that we had. We're delighted with the final videos and use them regularly to showcase our work in Africa to clients, partners and Turner colleagues. Fyvie Films know how to create great content. They really understood our brand and went above and beyond to create something superb. It certainly sets them apart from other creatives in this area!!

For Real Love in 2016
1. Inhale Now Exhale Your Past.
You have to not just get over your broken relationships and your past hurts but you have to release them. They happened, you went through it, that's not going to change. But now you have to see what you have learned from it. No matter how bad the experience there's always the lessons we have to learn so we don't have to repeat it or go through it again. It's time to graduate. Move on up.
2. Just do you.
You no longer have to do what other people tell you that should do. You're taking your power back. You now only need to relax into who you really are. Be assured that will be enough. You are an original. You are a masterpiece. Why would you want to be like anyone else. Now concentrate on self love and self acceptance. You have permission to be authentic. You're going to love it and, what's more, people will love the real you.
There's nothing more attractive than someone happy and confident in their own skin and who is totally genuine. You can't beat it.
[Tweet " It's Time To Graduate. Move On Up @Ask_Patricia "]
3. Know your Value

We partnered with Danone and Havas PR to inspire children who were participating in the Danone Nations Cup event to recycle. The Danone Nations Cup is a global football event for children aged 10-12 years old. We worked alongside Havas PR to execute an idea with inspiring these children to recycle in a fun and engaging way.
We created the world's first mobile recycling machine that was able to melt down plastic and instantly turn it into football medals. With the children we shredded and melted the water bottles used by the children and used this plastic to create unique, recycled medals for them to take home. The recycling machine toured the UK, attending multiple events and inspiring thousands of children to recycle. We also built several large trophies from recycled plastic that were used for photo opportunities and to deposit the plastic bottles in before they were recycled.
The campaign was a success, gaining both local and national press coverage for Danone. Every team had a photo with the trophy and machines. These made local news and were highly social. It also educated thousands of children about recycling in an engaging and fun way, demonstrating how their plastic waste can be recycled into something else.
