There are very few of these classic Thunderbirds around for the serious Ford hobbyist – this nice one belongs in your Blue Oval collection. The chassis is fitted with power steering, 4-wheel drum brakes and front coil/rear leaf suspension. The 'FE' is backed by Ford's classic 3-speed Cruise-O-Matic transmission and stock differential w/3.10:1 gears. It appears to be all-original including an Autolite '4100' 4-barrel carburetor. Horsepower is provided by a 352ci Ford engine that is said to have never required a rebuild and runs strong. The Thunderbird is equipped with a power driver seat and power windows. Door cards and carpeting are in very good condition. The dash is stunning and holds a set of white-faced factory gauges, factory wheel w/horn ring and original AM radio (needs TLC). The exterior is smartly complimented by a beautifully restored Saddle Tan vinyl interior. ![]() Rear quarter panels/skirts have been accented in Carolina Blue and a set of period correct American Racing wheels mount Toyo radial tires. The solid body was carefully prepped and a professional 2-stage coat of Colonial White Pearl was applied in 2008. This partially restored 1959 Thunderbird coupe is a nice example of what many consider the first 'personal luxury car'. It featured a long hood, unique 'squared' roofline and a lot of chrome. The model was only produced for three years, but sales improved every year. The 'square Thunderbird' was introduced in 1958 as a 4-seater and was an instant success. It was paired to a Borg-Warner three-speed automatic gearbox.Many of us remember the second generation Thunderbird, but few are seen today. Under the hood, Ford offered a new engine choice: the 430 ci (7.0-liter) engine developed for Lincoln, which produced 345 hp. Like its predecessor, the 1959 T-Bird featured a flat bench, fit mostly for two adults since the transmission tunnel that crossed the car from the gearbox to the rear axle diminished the legroom. A significant upgrade was the full-length center console that separated the front bucket seats. The rear taillights received a mild change and became wider. For the convertible version, the driver could open the rag-top and hide it under the trunk lid at a touch of a button. While these were almost useless in the event of a crash, they helped the car looked better and induced a higher sense of protection. The car's chromed grille was under the bumper and featured two protective rubber protections on the lower side. From the outside, it was easy to spot a 1959 Thunderbird due to its new front fascia. For the 1959 model, the blue-oval management decided that it had to turn its eyes toward women and advertised the vehicle next to a woman inside a country club. Even though the car was not on the cheap side of the market, the Thunderbird remained on top of many people's wishlists. The sales were high, and Ford's management was happy. Ford tried to keep the T-Bird momentum and, even though it made some changes for the 1958 model year, it introduced new ones in 1959. ![]()

Because NT 4 is late, and not ready for consumers, but also, because at the time, MS is fighting the US DoJ over monopoly claims, because MS is bundling IE with Windows. Win98 is the same basic OS as 95, but with UI tweaks. Important point #2: this is Jobs aping a Microsoft tactic. ![]() This is not some minor trivial point of graphical design. Important point #1: this is adding a lot of customisability to the MacOS UI that wasn't there before. (All this while the new NeXT team are porting OpenStep to PowerPC and building a VM to run Classic in, stuff that has no customer impact or benefit yet. the multithreaded Finder from Copland, and the Appearance control panel that allows skinning of the OS, which MacOS couldn't do before. Jobs cancelled Copland, the planned MacOS 8, and directed the internal Apple team to start salvaging what could be taken from Copland into what was really MacOS 7.7 or something, renaming it to MacOS 8 in order to make it look big and important. (Note: that's why the space is important. The primary reason was to replace MacOS with Mac OS. Apple was in big trouble, bought NeXT, and Steve Job came back. Continuing either of them into the space past the end of the other would imply priority and that was a bad thing the classic MacOS UI thought about this. but in a brilliant bit of UI design, it was at the intersection of the vertical and horizontal scrollbars. Up to System 7.x you could only resize a MacOS (note, again, no space that was important) window from the bottom right corner, where there was quite a big widget for this sole purpose. Which fails to consider what happened in that timeframe. > You might consider the era of thick borders as a 5-year blip on the timeline from 1997 to 2002. There was no "after" MacOS 9 (no space) was the last version. > and they weren’t present after Mac OS 9. Yes, but there are reasons for that which I will go into. I think you are not considering why they were present in the historical context. > The thick borders took up valuable screen space and weren’t necessary.ĭefine "necessary". This strikes me as very much a 21st century sort of comment, which looks at the "what" and totally fails to consider the "why" and the historical context. ![]() These widgets came with guidelines for how they should be sized and placed, something which is missing from a lot of modern UI toolkits. ![]() On the other hand, Mac OS 8 came with a fresh batch of standardized widgets (Appearance Manager) which made all the apps look better. I remember the Mac OS 8 era as a bit of “excess” that got cleaned up somewhat with the arrival of Mac OS X. This often meant that controls which were supposed to be visible would be partially covered by another window’s border. Worse, a bunch of applications had code that would set up window locations with the assumption that the window borders were 1 pixel wide, like they were prior to Mac OS 8. Modern Mac OS X is actually quite efficient, with zero-pixel window borders on three sides, and narrower scroll bars. Try running at a more modest 800圆00 or 640x480 and it will seem less efficient.

Some recent scholarship suggests that enslaved Africans may also have played an active role in the establishment of rice in the New World. However, it has recently been discovered that the indigenous peoples of the Amazon had already cultivated a distant relative of Asian rice of the same genus Oryza some 4,000 years ago, and were growing it alongside maize and squash, traditional companion crops of beans, which were also by that time present in South America. ![]() Asian rice was introduced to Mexico and Brazil during the colonial era by the Spanish and the Portuguese.

The Gregorian calendar was adopted for civil or public services in 1912 or the first year of Republic of China. This distinguishes it from the Gregorian calendar, which formed on the movement of the sun. It would be more accurate to refer to it as ‘lunisolar calendar’ because it’s formed based on the movement of the moon and the sun. In my opinion, it’s actually misleading to refer to the traditional Chinese calendar as ‘lunar calendar’, as it's a somewhat hybrid or combination of lunar calendar and solar calendar, like the Hebrew Calendar.
