Stay Up Late with 2000 with Barney (1996 home video) (battybarney2014's version)

Ethiopian calendar 1992 one Stay Up Late with 2000 with Barney is a 1996 New Year's Eve special as well the 18th episode from Season 1 of Barney's Wonderful Colby's Clubhouse & The Kids with guest appearances by characters from some of the international versions of Sesame Street from Barney & Friends Home Video. The special was first broadcast on April 23, 1996 with the subtitle A Dinosaur New Year's Eve Party and  Home Video that was released on September 3, 1996. 2000 (MM) was a century leap year starting on Saturday of the Gregorian calendar, the 2000th year of the Common Era (CE) and Anno Domini (AD) designations, the 1000th and last year of the 2nd millennium, the 100th and last year of the 20th century, and the 1st year of the 2000s decade A United Nations tribunal sentences five Bosnian Croats to up to 25 years in prison for the 1993 killing of more than 100 Bosnian Muslims. 2000 was designated as: International Year for the Culture of Peace[1] World Mathematical Year[2] Popular culture holds the year 2000 as the first year of the 21st century and the 3rd millennium due to a tendency of grouping the years according to decimal values, as if year zero were counted. According to the Gregorian Calendar, these distinctions fall to the year 2001, because the 1st century was retroactively said to start with year AD 1. Since the calendar does not have year zero, its first millennium spanned from years 1 to 1000 inclusively and its second millennium from years 1001 to 2000. (See more at Century and Millennium.) The year 2000 is sometimes abbreviated as "Y2K" (the "Y" stands for "year", and the "K" stands for "kilo" which means "thousand").[3][4] The year 2000 was the subject of Y2K concerns, which are fears that computers would not shift from 1999 to 2000 correctly. However, by the end of 1999, many companies had already converted to new, or upgraded, existing software. Some even obtained Y2K certification. As a result of massive effort, relatively few problems occurred To all our readers in the U.S., It's a little awkward, so we'll get straight to the point: This Tuesday we humbly ask you to defend Wikipedia's independence.

The price of your Tuesday coffee is all we need. When we made Wikipedia a non-profit, people warned us we'd regret it. But if Wikipedia became commercial, it would be a great loss to the world.

Plot
Everyone on Barney & Friends is preparing to celebrate New Year's Eve as they all go School to hold the party. However, For example you think that the 90s started in january 1 1990 2000 in United States sports There is no Nobel Prize for Economics. The proper title is The Sveriges Riksbank Prize in Economic Sciences in Memory of Alfred Nobel, which was establised in 1968. The first prize was awarded the following year. I notice that up to 1997 it's fairly accurate (although, being an encyclopedia I think the title should be completely accurate) and gradually it becomes the Nobel Prize for Economics NO In 1990 Again, changes in fashion or certain events do not usher in a new decade, numbers do. Eighties fashion and music was still popular up through about 1994 as the fashion and music of the new decade was becoming defined. Look at the 1960s, the fashions, music and lifestyles of the fifties were still popular up until 1964 when The Beatles came to America. After that different styles of music, the hippy movement started, mod fashion took over, TV went to color, etc. 1960 was still the start of the 1960s though eighties music and fashion were still popular and in 1991 everything changed drastically for example desert storm,the fall of the soviet union,music changed and also fashion changed the same with 2000 BJ quickly discovers that this means the 1983 ends. He becomes afraid that he soon will enter an 2000, and starts a campaign to prevent the new year from coming.

Earlier, Barney comes up with the idea of tossing a baseball into the air, just like in Times Square. So they have Wolfgang the Seal balance the baseball on his nose for the event. Once the countdown reaches zero, Wolf removes the baseball in slow motion. After the ball falls to the ground, the citizens cheer and sing "Faces That I Love".

After the credits roll, everyone wishes the viewers "Happy New Year!" and continue to celebrate (even Slimey, much to Colby's chagrin). The words "THE END" then appear onscreen and Simon Soundman eats one of the letters, exclaiming "Me love credits!"
