Leap Year
A leap year is a year containing one extra day in order to keep the calendar year synchronized with the astronomical or seasonal year. Typically once every four years, the exceptions can make this tricky to determine.

How may years from 333 BC and the year 2007?
There is no 365 day long period designated as the year zero. The years of the common era (AD or CE) begin with the first day of the year one CE, and the years before the common era (BC or BCE) end on the last day of the year one BCE. So starting at January 1, 333 BC (or BCE) and going to December 31 2007 AD (CE) you have a total of 2340 years. You could eliminate virtually 2 years by starting on Dec 31 of 333 BCE and going to Jan 1 of 2007, giving an answer of 2338 years. You just have to be careful how you specify your parameters.
The length of a year, as most people know it, is 365 days. This is actually not exact, as the length of the year is 365.25 days, as denoted by the time it takes our planet to circle the sun once. Since calendars don't show portions of a day, that quarter is 'lost' every year. But if we keep on losing time to the sun, our seasons would, over time, change around. So if you live in London, say, you will find in the year 2727, or so, that London has it's Christmas in the middle of summer, and Wimbledon will be cancelled, or at least moved to Christmas, as it would be too cold & wet to play in July. Anyway, to get back to the answer: this quarter day has to be added to the calendar, so every four years we add the four quarters of the preceding four years, to form a full day, and we add that to February, as you'll know. The general rule is that if the year is divisible by four, it's a leap year, like 2008. Certain exceptions apply, as in 2000 (which obviously is divisible by 4), but wasn't a leap year. Why that is I don't know, perhaps someone that does could add to this.
How many years of non use can occur before a right of way is lost?
It depends on how the right was obtained in the first place, and who owns it. A public right of way is probably recorded or at least provides a rebuttable presumption of right. A private right of way could be recorded in a deed or obtained by necessity or other legal or equitable principles.
In many cases, the non-use is irrelevant; the right is "permanent", at least until someone takes legal steps to limit or remove it (i.e., physically barring the way, or filing a legal case to enjoin specific trespassers). In other cases, such as where an easement has been obtained by adverse possession, the mere lack of use would not abandon the right, but failure to exclude OTHERS from encroaching upon the right could start the "clock" on adverse "re-possession". Generally, adverse possession does not "run" against any government property rights.
One recent case in MA involved a subdivision that was never built, including the "street" that had been platted but not improved. The court held that the abutters had a vested right in seeing the road built, so a new owner of the entire (undivided) subdivision could not simply ignore the "dedicated way", and needed their unanimous consent to revoke the dedication.
A couple of New Jersey hunters are out in the woods when one of them falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head.
The other guy whips out his cell phone and calls the emergency services. He gasps to the operator: "My friend is dead! What can I do?"
The operator, in a calm, soothing voice, says: "Just take it easy. I can help. First, let's make sure he's dead."
There is a silence, then a shot is heard. The guy's voice comes back on the line. He says: "Okay, now what?"
What was the last year Porsche built 911 in the 996 format?
The 997 was introduces in the Carrera 2 and Carrera 2 S coupe in 2005, so it was just before that that they stopped making the same 996 version.
Then the 4 wheel drive, C4 series was launched and they stopped the 996 version.
Right now Porsche are not making any more 996 models at all and the final 997, the Turbo has now hit the showrooms, so the 996 is now history.
So to answer your question, the last 996 was produced in 2006.
A solar year is the time that it takes the earth to complete one cycle around the sun. The year is the time taken by earth to complete a cycle around the sun which takes about 365.25 days.
So, a calendar year is 365 days and 1 quarter. Every Leap Year (once in 4 years) there is an extra day in February.
A year technically is the time taken for a planet to make one orbit of the sun. At that rate, an Earth year is shorter than a Mars year, which is 687 days at a 24 hour day. This will be longer than a year on Mercury, which takes 88 Earth days to orbit the sun.
What year was the Model 375 made?
Can you only sell 3 cars privately in a year and what happens if you sell 4?
Call the department of transportation in your state to find out.
