Read the passage and answer the following questions:
What is common between Pope Paul III, former Prime Minister Morarji Desai, Italian
composer Goeehina Rossini, Gone with the Wind, Playboy Club and Pulsar CP1919 (a star
that sends signals every 1.337301 seconds)?
February 29, is the extra day that comes every four years. While the Pope, Rossini and
Morarji Desai were born on this date, the movie Gone with the Wind won eight Oscars that
day in 1940, the first Playboy Club featuring bunnies opened in Chicago (1960), and
CP1919, the first pulsar was discovered (1968).
Ever wondered why the extra day occurs every four years? It is to keep the seasons in their
right months. It takes the earth slightly more than 365 days - about 5 hours 48 minutes and
45.22 seconds - to, complete one rotation around the sun. Multiply that into four years and
it would be one day extra. After four years the earth would be short of one day to make four
complete rotations around the sun, and, in 120 years, a full month. In 120 years, the
seasons would come a month later. This is why we give back a day to nature by inserting a
day in the calendar every fourth year.
Emperor Julius Caesar introduced the system of leap year in 46BC, it was found that the
leap year was introduced by the priests every third year instead of the fourth and, to

compensate for this error, no more leap years were added until 8 AD. But by giving one day
back to nature the year had 11 minutes and about 14 and three-fourth seconds extra. By
the 15th century, this added up to 10 extra days. Pope Gregory XIII decided to make the 10-
day correction all at once. He shortened October 1582 by 10 days: October 4, 1582, was
followed by October 15, 1582. The rule for deciding the leap year was also modified. If a
century is divisible completely by 400 only then it would be a leap year. The year 1900 was
not a leap year but 2000 was. This calendar is, however, not perfect: an error of three days
crops up after 10,000 years.

the poor never get to raise their heads above the ground level. History is repeating itself.
Despite our new and wonderful age of knowledge dissemination, innovations, and
opportunities, the powerful have not changed in India or anywhere else. The rich nations of
the world are telling the poor ones that their poverty is the result of their own corruption,
greed, and bad governance. Meanwhile, the powerful in India are telling the poor that their
destitution is the result of their illiteracy, ignorance, and narrow-minded beliefs in traditions.
Neither the rich nations nor the rich people of India do more than deliver lectures. They
insist that the poor must first deliver proof of honesty and sincere desire to use the money
correctly before anything will be given. Of course, the decisions about what is the correct
use of money are in the hands of the rich. In any case, the rich use nearly 70 percent of the
money given at any time to sell services to the poor. Western countries still make sure that
as much as two-thirds of their aid is spent on consultants and materials from the West.
The rich in India go a step further. It is still true that only six rupees out of every 100 spent
by the government actually reach the villages. This year, reducing poverty is at the centre of
the efforts of the World Bank and the United Nations. Several scholarly reports have been
published. But none says that the poor deserve to be helped just because they are poor:
They do not see poverty as an affliction. They see it as the consequence of inadequate
actions by the poor themselves.
