  1. Leo -- Stars
    R Leonis is the only variable of note in Leo. This isn't your typical Mira-type long-period variable. First of all, it's usually a very faint 11.3m star, which grows to an extremely bright 4.4m every 309.95 days. In 2000 the maximum should arrive in the last week of February.
  2. Joshua Tree National Park
    Joshua Tree National Park is in the high desert of Southeastern California, roughly 20 miles east of Palm Springs. Even though it's close to the lush desert oasis of the wealthy, when walking through JTNP you feel as though you've reached the end of the earth. If there's any place on the contintental US that would make a good location for a movie set on Mars, Joshua Tree just may be the best spot. Most National Parks, such as Mount Rainier, Yosemite, or The Grand Canyon, are among the most spectacular natural wonders of the world, with grandeur and beauty that are awe-inspiring. Frankly, these are not the words one would typically use to describe Joshua Tree National Park. It seems that "strange" and "other-worldly" are the more accurate descriptions.
  3. 1966
    Ford's introductory advertising for the 1966 Thunderbird was a two-page spread that continued the tradition of beautifully photographed ads. Ford marketed four Thunderbird models for 1966, the first year since 1963 to offer more than three models. The Town Hardtop and the Town Landau would be the two new ones, joining the Conventional Hardtop and the Convertible. The new Town models differed from previous T-birds in that the rear roof quarter panels were blind—the roof extended forward in the quarter area to meet the front door glass, eliminating the conventional triangular-shaped side quarter windows. This roofline was very similar to the Ford Mustang 2+2 roofline, although not quite as raked. Ford advised its salesmen that this change was "an elegant evolution of the traditional Thunderbird roof." Inside, the Town models differed from the Conventional Hardtop in several ways: the headliner, which was normally rather traditional in appearance, with roof bows that supported the material, was now made out of two pieces of molded cardboard, onto which foam was applied, followed by a new "moon crater" patterned vinyl that was glued directly to the foam.
