	International Women's Day
		International Women's Day is the story of ordinary women as makers of history; it is rooted in the centuries-old struggle of women to participate in society on an equal footing with men.
		The idea of an International Women's Day first arose at the turn of the century, which in the industrialized world was a period of expansion and turbulence, booming population growth and radical ideologies.
		Increasingly, International Women's Day is a time to reflect on progress made, to call for change and to celebrate acts of courage and determination by ordinary women who have played an extraordinary role in the history of women's rights.

		A lunisolar calendar is synchronized both to the motion of the Moon and to the apparent motion of the Sun; an example is the Jewish calendar.
		Calendars are also used as part of a complete timekeeping system: date and time of day together specify a moment in time.
		Calendars in widespread use today include the Gregorian calendar, which is the de facto international standard, and is used almost everywhere in the world for civil purposes, including in China and India (along with the Indian national calendar).

	Perpetual calendar - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		A perpetual calendar is a calendar which is good for a span of many years, such as the Runic calendar.
		The Perpetual Calendar has 14 one-year calendars, one for each common year (year that does not have a February 29) that starts on each day of the week, and one for each leap year that starts on each day of the week.
		Also certain calendar reforms may be considered to be perpetual calendars, such as the World calendar and International Fixed Calendar.

		Clearly, if the calendar could have all festivals and all rest days fixed on the same dates every year, as in the original Julian calendar, this arrangement would be more convenient, and two general schemes have been put forward--the International Fixed Calendar and the World Calendar.
		The International Fixed Calendar is essentially a perpetual Gregorian calendar, in which the year is divided into 13 months, each of 28 days, with an additional day at the end.
		It is claimed that the proposed International Fixed Calendar does not conveniently divide into quarters for business reckoning; and the World Calendar is designed to remedy this deficiency, being divided into four quarters of 91 days each, with an additional day at the end of the year.

		Having such a calendar become part of international law, which some of the creators of the 13 Moon Calendar have attempted to do via the United Nations organization, is inappropriate (unless the version submitted to the UN did not include the "New Age" elements).
		I intend to revive support for the International Fixed Calendar, by urging individuals to make personal use of it of whether or not it is ever officially adopted as a national or international civil calendar.
		Proponents of the World Calendar often say that a major difficulty in using the 13 month calendar is in dividing the year into quarters, because the number 13 is a prime numeber.

		According to Encarta's calendar experts, the big problem with this approach is that it would have fussed with regular religious holidays.
		The Gregorian calendar we follow is plagued with 12 months of varying lengths, uneven quarters, and shifting dates and days of the week (which is why your birthday might be on a Monday one year and a Tuesday the next).

	History of the 13-Month Calendar
		This "Positivist" calendar, however, was so belabored with names of prominent men and women from ancient to modern times that it received a cold response.
		It was the most rational plan which they knew (before The World Calendar Association launched The World Calendar Plan at the close of 1930) and thus was endorsed by quite a number of prominent business men, statisticians and accountants.
		After having fought vainly for many years for the adoption of the 13-month calendar, under the able leadership of George Eastman in the United States and Moses B. Cotsworth in England, the International Fixed Calendar League, with offices in London, England, and in Rochester, New York, quietly closed its doors about 1937, and activities ceased.

	George Eastman on Calendar Reform
		When the Gregorian calendar was adopted in 1582 (in 1752 by England and her colonies), no change was made in the months, the only change from the Julian calendar being the arrangement for leap-year.
		All the defects of the Gregorian calendar are due to three features: (1) the months are unequal; (2) the month is not an exact multiple of the week; (3) the ordinary year consists of 365 days, just one day over 52 weeks.
		The inconveniences and difficulties that would be experienced during the frist few years of the new calendar are comparatively slight compared with the many advantages which would be obtained in the business, social, and religious worlds by the adoption of the proposed calendar.
