Don't Februarys from ANY year have each of the seven days occurring four times except for leap year? Meaning this occurs three of each four years.

365 days makes things not repeat evenly (New Years is not on the same day each year, but rather the next day normally). 365 divided by 7 has a remainder of 1.

Leap year is what makes it not re-occur every 7 years. Otherwise it would occur more often.

/least that's how I see it.
//the way the number 7 interplay's with other numbers is really cool, but I digress

Still not sure of the intent of OP though.
I may be off in left field .. oh look, a butterfly

In Bavaria we say: "So hat's mit König Ludwig auch angefangen." (translated from the Bavarian into German, in English: That's how it started with King Ludwig [II of Bavaria] also.) smile smile smile see at the bottom.


As we age, time seems to fly faster, but I'm far away from that speed, or I'm the Highlander, because in my lifespan I've had several Februaries already with the above mentioned properties. So I must be several thousand years old.

This kind of stuff pops up on FaceBook all the time... it's not true. But that doesn't stop people from reposting it.

"Happens once every 823 years" is the common thread in them all.

If they said the world was round,i wouldnt believe them.

Assuming that the point concerns a February when the first day of the month is Sunday, and the entire month is composed of 4 full weeks with no days overlapping into a partial week...

2017 is not such a year. (2015 was) But...

if you click on your computer's calendar, set the month to February, then cycle thru the years, the following years all show February starting on a Sunday, having 4 weeks of contiguous Sunday-Saturday and no overlap into a partial week:

2026
2037
2043
2054
2065
2072
2082

I could go on, but this makes the point that the frequency is demonstrably much more than once every several hundred years.

Both still work, not only in Bavaria, but in the entire German speaking realm. That with the Schnitzelplatte is, naturally, dependent on the nature of the Restaurant.

For Americans and other English speaking people, in the first case, the only German word you need to know is "bitte" as the replacement for "please". "A beer" sounds close enough, as in most German speaking areas "ein" is often shortened to "a" (the "a" sounding similar t the "u" in "Bud" smile ).

Looks like a fibronicci sequence..... and I'll bet if you multiply them all and divide by Pi.R squared.... you get the number of the mark of the beast.

Yes, but only if you take away the number you first thought of... crazy

The Band-in-a-Box® Flash Drive Backup Option

Today (April 5) is National Flash Drive Day!

Did you know... not only can you download your Band-in-a-Box® Pro, MegaPAK, or PlusPAK purchase - you can also choose to add a flash drive backup copy with the installation files for only $15? It even comes with a Band-in-a-Box® keychain!

For the larger Band-in-a-Box® packages (UltraPAK, UltraPAK+, Audiophile Edition), the hard drive backup copy is available for only $25. This will include a preinstalled and ready to use program, along with your installation files.

Backup copies are offered during the checkout process on our website.

Already purchased your e-delivery version, and now you wish you had a backup copy? It's not too late! If your purchase was for the current version of Band-in-a-Box®, you can still reach out to our team directly to place your backup copy order!

Note: the Band-in-a-Box® keychain is only included with flash drive backup copies, and cannot be purchased separately.

Handy flash drive tip: Always try plugging in a USB device the wrong way first? If your flash drive (or other USB plug) doesn't have a symbol to indicate which way is up, look for the side with a seam on the metal connector (it only has a line across one side) - that's the side that either faces down or to the left, depending on your port placement.

Band-in-a-Box® 2024 Review: 4.75 out of 5 Stars!

If you're looking for a in-depth review of the newest Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows version, you'll definitely find it with Sound-Guy's latest review, Band-in-a-Box® 2024 for Windows Review: Incredible new capabilities to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs.

A few excerpts:
"The Tracks view is possibly the single most powerful addition in 2024 and opens up a new way to edit and generate accompaniments. Combined with the new MultiPicker Library Window, it makes BIAB nearly perfect as an 'intelligent' composer/arranger program."

"MIDI SuperTracks partial generation showing six variations – each time the section is generated it can be instantly auditioned, re-generated or backed out to a previous generation – and you can do this with any track type. This is MAJOR! This takes musical experimentation and honing an arrangement to a new level, and faster than ever."

"Band in a Box continues to be an expansive musical tool-set for both novice and experienced musicians to experiment, compose, arrange and mix songs, as well as an extensive educational resource. It is huge, with hundreds of functions, more than any one person is likely to ever use. Yet, so is any DAW that I have used. BIAB can do some things that no DAW does, and this year BIAB has more DAW-like functions than ever."
