 Julian calendar - Open Encyclopedia   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
This happened again during Julius Caesar's pontificate, 63 BC to 46 BC, when there were only five intercalary months, whereas there should have been eight, and none at all between 52 BC and 46 BC.
Thus by 46 BC a calendar date was occurring three months earlier than it should have against the tropical year.
Before it took effect, the deficit was corrected by inserting 67 days (22+23+22) between November and December of 46 BC in the form of two months, which are now sometimes referred to as Unodecember and Duodecember, in addition to 23 days which had already been added to February.

The chronologist Joseph Scaliger established in 1583 that the Augustan reform was instituted in 8 BC, and inferred that the sequence of leap years was 42, 39, 36, 33, 30, 27, 24, 21, 18, 15, 12, 9 BC, AD 8, 12 etc. This proposal is still the most widely accepted solution.
This sequence shows that one aim of the realignment portion of the Augustan reform was to ensure that key dates of his career, notably the fall of Alexandria on 1 August 30 BC, were unaffected by his correction.

 Supreme Court Judge Denies Cathedral Grove Injunction : WC Mediawire
Nanaimo, British Columbia (BC), Canada Madam Justice Quijano, ruled Friday, May 28 2004, to dismiss application by the Attorney General of BC, for an injunction to remove protesters out of MacMillan Provincial Park in Cathedral Grove.
Protesters have been in the park since January, gathering signatures on petitions and handing out information requesting the BC Government allow for a public process to address proposed changes to the park, including the location of a controversial parking lot and the need for an environmental impact assessment and traffic safety study.
It is our hope that no less can be said of Bill Barisoff’s office and the Democratic requests via letters and thousands of signatures asking for a due public process to address concerns over proposals for the park,” she concludes.

The problems became particularly acute during Julius Caesar's pontificate, 63 BC to 46 BC, when there were only five intercalary months, whereas there should have been eight, and none at all during the five Roman years before 46 BC.
Roman dates before 32 BC were typically a day or two before the day with the same Julian date, so 1 January in the Roman calendar of the first year of the Julian reform actually fell on 31 December 46 BC (Julian date).
A curious effect of this is that Caesar's assassination on the Ides (15th day) of March in 44 BC fell on 14 March 44 BC in the Julian calendar.
