Why do historians believe that Jesus was born 4 AD not the year 0?
At the time around the birth of Jesus then were two king Herods. When Aloysius Lilius the man who devised the Gregorian calendar, the calandar as we know it, he dated it back to the wrong Herod. Answer Few historians believe Jesus was born in 4AD. The most likely time was around 4BC, eight years previously, as this is in accord with the dates set in Luke's gospel, and other Roman historical documents. Other dating aids such as astronomical tables pinpointing the 'star of Bethlehem' as being most likely to be a planetary conjunction all point to this approximate time for his birth. There is some controversy over when Quirinius was governor of Judaea, but generally speaking Jesus was most likely born around 6-4BC. There was never a year '0'. So 1 BC is followed immediately by 1AD. As the first answer states, the actual calendar was not agreed until many years after Christ's birth, and a genuine mistake was made pinpointing his birth, which was never rectified even to this day. This would now be impossible as it would be impossible to call the present year (2009) 2013 suddenly because of the confusion that would arise.
Why do some people in the British Isles speak Gaelic?
Gaelic is the ancient language of Scotland and Ireland. In Scotland, it is still spoken by the inhabitants of the Western Isles, a group of islands off the west coast of Scotland but not many other people in Scotland are able to speak the language. It is more widely used in Ireland, particularly in the west and south of the country, where it is known as Irish or Erse. It is a mandatory subject in Irish schools.
To find discriminant of a matrix?
Well, Im not sure if this is true for all matrices of all sizes, but for a 2x2 square matrix the discriminant is... dis(A) = tr(A)^2 - 4 det(A) The discriminant of matrix A is equal to the square of the trace of matrix A, minus four times the determinant of matrix A. I know this to be true for all 2x2 square matrice, but I have never seen any statement one way or the other for larger matrices. Thus, for matrix A = [ a, b; c, d ] tr(A) = a+d det(A) = ad-bc tr(A)^2 = a^2 + 2ad + d^2 4 det(A) = 4ad - 4bc dis(A) = a^2 - 2ad + 4bc + d^2

When Hinduism began?
Hinduism was started when man started worshiping nature. The pre-classical Hinduism was started in 200 BC.Man perhaps started worshiping nature 50,000 years ago. "A number of artifacts from the Upper Paliolithic (50,000-13,000) are generally interpreted by scientists as representing religious ideas" (Wikipedia - History of Religions). The Harappa seals (3,000 BC) show an ascetic sitting cross-legged and it could very well be Shiva. Hinduism had its beginnings in aboriginal religious thought and it could be 10,000 years old.
Adventure Stories: The Many Go-Betweens of Rock?
While the music on the Top 40 charts has the highest number of listeners, there is another music. It’s sometimes called post-punk and the hallmark of the genre is a fondness for both abrasive energy and beauty. It is a music that is willing to take chances and fly the flag for adventure. The genre traces its roots to the music of the sixties band the Velvet Underground. They were influenced by academic music as well as by rock and blues. They were uncommercial enough to record songs like Heroin and not censor themselves to try to attract a wider audience. A little intelligence goes a long way, and when a musician plays beautiful pop imbued by the freedom to be abrasive at times, it makes a third kind of thing altogether. Writers such as John Cale and Lou Reed may have felt that a moderate audience and the leeway to experiment was more important than a stadium, an obligation and loads of money. The Velvets had a lot of babies. A famous quip about the band is that not very many people saw their shows, but everyone who did formed a band. In the late seventies, bands like Television, Wire and the Fall dwelled in adventure, flying the checkered flag for an auteur’s care and a little of everything. Soon they were joined by the great Australian go-betweens, The Go-Betweens. Simon Reynolds picks up the story of Velvets-imbued adventure rock in his great book _Rip it Up and Start Again_. Reynolds writes that by the time synthesizer pop became popular in the United States on early MTV, much of the adventure had already been bleached away by commercial concerns. The Human League, for instance, were known for a couple of huge U.S. hits but their earlier music took more chances. American record labels such as Shimmy Disc and 4AD kept going between in the nineties, and to this day there are outposts of smart rage and smart bliss like Matador, Merge, Sub Pop, Anticon, Absolutely Kosher. The list goes on. The new decade promises to be a gold mine or a hell for anyone excited about adventure in music.
