A vinyl roofed Landau option with simulated S bars was added to the line up in 1962 as was the legendary Sports Roadster for convertible models. 6.4L V8 was standard and mated to a three speed automatic transmission. The interior design featured a contoured dash that curved at its outward ends to blend in with the door panels and the model boasted the first 'Swing-away' steering wheel. The Thunderbird was redesigned in 1961 with sleeker styling from its previous 'Squarebird' design that gave the bird a renown 'bullet-lie' appearance with an all new bodyshell featuring a severely pointed front end and the car enjoyed a smoother ride with much improved handling and soundproofing. The cars original factory added options include 300HP 4BBL V8 engine matched to it's original 'Cruise-O-Matic transmission with overdrive in completely rust free and restored condition in it's original factory 'Sports Roadster' option, 'Rangoon Red' color (Code J) paint with the 'Black' (Trim code 56) vinyl interior and with factory options including bucket seats, full carpeting, with front console, power steering, power brakes, power windows, power door locks, power front seats, original AM radio, heater & defroster, full instrumentation, sequential turn signals, and obviously the unique swing-away steering wheel & the Roadster's trunk stored power convertible top with the car mounted correctly on it's striking Kelsey Hayes chrome wire wheels with the deletion of the rear fender! The Thunderbird remains a beloved classic car among collectors and enthusiasts, celebrated for its timeless styling and its role in automotive history as an emblematic representation of the evolving American automobile market.West Coast Classics are proud to present a highly desirable example of the third generation of Thunderbirds a 1962 Ford Thunderbird Factory Sports Roadster with the 390 c.i. Production of the Ford Thunderbird concluded in 2005, ending its rich history as a symbol of American automotive design and innovation. This tenth-generation Thunderbird paid homage to the original '55 T-Bird, featuring a classic look with modern technology. In 2002, Ford revived the Thunderbird with a retro-inspired design as a two-seater convertible. The seventh generation, produced from 1977 to 1979, was notably downsized and offered a range of V8 engine options, reflecting the era's focus on fuel efficiency. It evolved from a sporty two-seater into a luxurious cruiser with a focus on comfort and performance. The Thunderbird underwent several redesigns over the years, reflecting changes in automotive trends and consumer preferences. This design continued for the subsequent generations. The second generation, introduced in 1958, featured a larger, more luxurious body with a rear seat, transforming the Thunderbird into a four-seater. The Thunderbird quickly became popular and is credited with starting the "personal luxury car" trend in the automotive industry. It featured a sleek and stylish design, a V8 engine, and a focus on comfort and amenities. The first generation of the Thunderbird, introduced in 1955, was designed to compete with the Chevrolet Corvette. It was introduced in 1955 as a two-seater sports car and evolved over the years into a luxury personal luxury car and later a retro-styled two-seater. The Ford Thunderbird, often referred to as the "T-Bird," is an iconic American automobile produced by Ford Motor Company.

Additionally, the Dulles International Airport is the next closest airport at 40 minutes away. It is located right next to the airport, and thus it sometimes feels as though you can jump up and touch the planes since they are so close to the ground. If you are looking for a spot where you can watch the planes fly overhead, then head to Gravelly Point. It is only about a 10 minute drive away, though that does depend on traffic. The closest airport to the Tidal Basin is the Ronald Reagan Washington National Airport. You will then have to walk anywhere from 10 to 30 minutes to reach the boating dock from East Potomac Park it all depends on where you park. For example, you can park alongside the side of Ohio Drive SW or in one of the paid lots in the southwestern corner of the park. There is a fair amount of parking available within the park. Third, you can park in East Potomac Park. It is only a 10 minute walk from the Washington Monument to the boating dock. Second, you can park on a side street near the National Mall and walk to the Tidal Basin paddle boats. The city will close the lot whenever there are events happening, such as the cherry blossom festival, to make room for food trucks and other vendors. However, please note this parking lot is often full or closed. Parkingįirst, there is a parking lot located right next to the boating dock.

I love how the cherry blossoms are so out of focus that it looks kinda like glitter. My favorite part of this image is the very right hand side where the cherry blossom branch sort of fades and all you can see are little dots of light. Who knew there was even live music at the cherry blossom booths in the Paddle Boats parking lot?! LOL I thought that stage was just there for the weekends or something. I found myself just observing other people more and just smiling at all the different interactions with other people, dogs, and even the trees. The was so much more energy at the basin. The light is just a bit harsher and I personally like the quieter hours but there is something to say about visiting in the afternoon. The later on in the day, the more and more people who show up at the Tidal Basin and not that there’s anything wrong with that. If you know me, you know that I usually stick to cherry blossom sunrises. But it was still a great time nonetheless. I’m pretty sure that during this time of year, all morning, afternoon, and evening walks end up at the Tidal Basin. It had been a while since we caught up, so we met up in the middle of the afternoon, walked around a bit and found ourselves at the Tidal Basin. This image was taken on an afternoon walk with my friend, Austin. Crazy but awesome and so much fun! So I think I’m going to do it. I have no doubt in my mind that I will be able to post a new cherry blossom/magnolia/flower image everyday this month. I think people who tried to work a logo too hard, having too much meaning, wind up with something that's too complex. RJ: The main thing is to make it simple, because designers especially young designers tend to over-design or clients want too many things in there. Don't mean to be rude to the designer or something, just wanted to say what I think.Ībout the logo designer of the Apple's Apple comes this statement:ĬB: Can you give me the most important things to watch out for when designing a logo? It's complexity in simplicity, not just simplicity for its own sake. Logotypes are supposed to consist of graphical elements that serve a purpose (other than looking nice), to convey something about who or what the logotype represents. Though this is a nice looking logo and so forth it's main problems are that it's graphical elements are derivative and even worse that they don't seem to serve any meaningful purpose. And also silhouette of the logo falls short is flat and bulky, and lacks the depth and dynamics of the actual Blender logo. There are two things this design has going for it at a glance: first the re-purposeing of the graphical elements to make it the letter "b" don't feel like a bad idea at all, though in this case the implementation is shamelessly derivative of the beats-logo secondly the presentation with the different color palette and the graphical wave element at the top which do look good, but is as an obvious derivative design as the above mentioned. Though it is, in my opinion, no way near the quality required for being a replacement for the actual Blender logotype, since that one is way superior in every way. However, I actually dig the logo, I do like seeing the "b" coming out of it Look at Apple's logo, the Nike swoosh, the Twitter bird, etc.Īnyhow, you are welcomed to your own opinion. I also feel like that is a bit of a weak argument, considering that this logo is obviously more centrally balanced than the current logo.Īlso, there is no rule to say that logos must be symmetrical or symmetrically balanced. I would argue that what he has done is optically centering it. If you were to look at this logo as a physical object, you might imagine that the first ascending stroke would cause the circular base to begin to rotate counter-clockwise without the other elements helping to offset its visual weight and even out the overall balance. Inspect how circular characters hang below the baseline to optically feel aligned to other characters. Fonts are a great place to examine the use of design optics and alignment. Things being optically balanced are not based on fixed measurements like how you are trying to break it down. Honestly, optical balance is not what you mean, at least I don't think it is. Besides, she's grown on me over the years. Since she's only used in test renders and cameos, I don't think it matters all too much. Though, she's more as an inside joke and a casual touch. Like the MODO ads I find in 3D Artist magazine.Īs for Suzanne, she could be improved, with updated topology. Though, I would see it being used in single-page/"splash" ads more than as a standard use of logo. It give the logo set a bit more casual flair, as if it's representing the creative, dynamic nature of the suite. That wavy divider's a reoccurring theme, like here: It doesn't have to be consistent with the typeface and logo to fit in-it's used consistently as a background theme. I see what you mean, but I don't think elements always have to be self-similar all the time. Where I disagree most is with the sinus line. Feels better (to me) having the "Blender" name logo smaller and *floating* in the middle of the "b" icon logo's height. Something feels a bit off in having the "b" icon logo sized and aligned the same with the "Blender" name logo. I thought in the first logo concept, with the Blender icon logo right next to the "Blender" name, the "Blender" name could've made smaller and placed just a bit upward, like the way this one on the far left is: I'm not sure I get what you mean by the 'b' in the logo being not balanced (center) around the dot or that there's more mass to the right. Personally, I disagree with some of that analysis. If you have multiple pricing tables, the rate limit is shared.

With fiction book formatting, you want to have just a small indent at the start of each paragraph. When it comes to book formatting, use of the Tab key is a no-no, because it results in an indent that’s far larger than you need. Many of us learned how to type using the Tab key to create an indent at the start of each paragraph, so this can be a tough habit to break. (A quick note: it’s possible to do many of the fixes in Google Docs, however, Word has a more comprehensive set of features, so that’s what we’ve used for the rest of this article.) #1 – Avoid Hard Indents in Your Book FormatĪ hard indent is when paragraph indentations are created by manual use of the keyboard’s Tab key.

Step 3 - Based on the location, Marley Roofing will provide the client with a list of approved SolteQ PVGreencard installers. Step 2 - Contact Marley Roofing with basic information such as contact details, location of property etc. However, it aims to eventually move into the German, South African, and Turkish markets.Step 1 - Please download our Solar Question and Answer sheet PDF, to gain an understanding of solar and to prepare information required for consultation. It is only selling its solar roof tiles in the Netherlands for now, where there’s a lot of demand for the product. We’ll see how fast Tesla and Exasun expand beyond their home bases, and where they eventually cross paths (if they do).Įxasun now has 20 MW of annual production capacity. Sound familiar? Yep, that’s basically Tesla’s pitch with its solar roof tiles. It’s unclear how closely an Exasun roof compares to a conventional solar installation on top of an existing roof, but the core points are that you can have a prettier, cleaner solar roof that matches the common tiled roof design of the region. Pricing isn’t super straightforward, but there’s a kWh calculator on the site. Jan Jaap Van Os told me that getting Exasun’s BIPV solar roof was more cost competitive than getting a new roof plus a conventional solar PV installation. The products on offer include Black Mystiek roof tiles, Black Glass modules, a full Black Roof, or a full Black Facade (a Black Roof turned into a wall, essentially). In 2015, it started producing its BIPV roof tiles. Nonetheless, with a shift in the global market, Exasun also shifted. This technological approach also leads to lower electrical resistance and better durability.Įxasun got into normal solar PV production in 2011, but then the Chinese got into the game big time and costs dropped dramatically. Jan Jaap Van Os notes that solar modules did get cheaper but the quality and durability also dropped. Jan Jaap Van Os believes that Exasun is the only company in the world using a certain back-contact-on-glass technology to keep the heat down and the efficiency up. You want sunlight hitting solar panels, but you don’t really want the heat that comes along with that light. If you know solar PV tech a bit, you know that high heat actually reduces efficiency. The easy and quick installation process helps to bring down the soft costs of rooftop solar.Īdditionally, Jan Jaap Van Os noted in our chat that their roof tiles offer great ventilation, which can be a problem with rooftop solar and is an especially important design feature in a wet country like the Netherlands. It’s more like putting together LEGO blocks than doing actual construction. You can see a super short demo in the second half of the interview below. There are a few cool things about the design of the Exasun BIPV tech. Basically, it’s solar PV technology that’s built into the structure of a building - the walls, roof, or even windows. Oh, by the way, BIPV stands for building-integrated photovoltaics. That said, Remco has been following the industry longer than me and put some early-generation solar roof tiles on his home years ago, so I knew his recommendations meant a lot. I didn’t know what to expect exactly but walked in cautiously since CleanTechnica had covered BIPV stories for years and not seen many companies last for long or grow very big. I visited the company’s headquarters and factory in Amsterdam last year during a cleantech tour Remco van der Horst arranged for me when I was in town for rEVolution 2017. It also has what seems to be a cost-competitive, attractive, high-quality product on offer. A Tesla copycat? Certainly not - Exasun was in the solar roof tile business before Tesla. To do this, open up a terminal and issue the following command: sudo usermod -aG vboxusers 'your username' In order for VirtualBox to have access to the USB subsystem, the user (on host system) running VirtualBox must belong to the vboxuser group. This is for Linux only because I am using all this in Linux. To access USB devices, you will need to install the VirtualBox extension pack. However, sharing USB and network devices between the host and guest machine is not as straightforward as it should be. With VirtualBox, users have the ability to use a fully-functional operating system, without having to do the setup on different hardware. If you’re a gamer or using productivity software in a WM, this makes a huge difference. Using Guest Additions, the guest OS’s resolution will dynamically resize as you adjust the VirtualBox window on your computer.įinally, Guest Additions can take advantage of your computer’s graphics card. While the virtual graphics card which Oracle VirtualBox provides all the basic features, the custom video drivers that are installed with the Guest Additions provide you with extra high and non-standard video modes, as well as accelerated video performance. The next time you start the virtual machine, the folder should appear as a network drive. In the VM settings add the host system folder you want to share and choose the name that you want to appear at your VM. In this tutorial, I will make a permanent shared folder. These can be created using a checkbox in the VirtualBox Manager.
