centurial

Naqvi studied with Cyrille at the New School in the mid-’90s and with Smith at CalArts in 2006 — the album title is a nod to the centurial hump between enrollments.

But there’s an exception to that: The centurial years that are exactly divisible by 400 are leap years.

In order to account for this, Leap Day is skipped on “centurial years not divisible by 400.”

But if Holzhauer continues to dominate the game as he has during his first 11 episodes, he will have effectively turned Jennings into Steffi Graf, a generational talent, and crowned himself Serena Williams, a centurial one.

Because the Julian calendar has a leap year in all years divisible by four—without excepting centurial years not divisible by 400, the way the Gregorian calendar does—the discrepancy between the Julian and Gregorian calendar changes periodically.
