Leap Year 2012

Happy Birthday to all the Leap Year babies out there!

 Today is Leap Day and here some interesting facts about this special day: Leap Day was introduced more than 2,000 years ago to keep the calendar year synchronized with the seasons. The Earth turns roughly 365-and-a-quarter times on its axis by the time it has completed a full year’s orbit around the sun. That means periodically the calendar has to catch up. A Leap Year contains one extra day — February 29 — for a total of 366 days. People born on this day day are called Leaplings or Leap Year Babies.

Notable Leap Day birthdays:
1468 – Pope Paul III (d. 1549)
1904 – Jimmy Dorsey, American bandleader (d. 1957)
1916 – Dinah Shore, American singer and actress (d. 1994)
1920 – Howard Nemerov, U.S. poet and Pulitzer Prize for Poetry (d. 1991)

1960 – Tony Robbins, American motivational speaker
