![]() Other changes to the front - new headlights and a restyled lower bumper - give the Vibe a sporty appearance (see a side-by-side comparison with the 2008 model). Pontiac’s recognizable twin-port grille is prominent and resembles the one on Pontiac’s new sport sedan, the G8. On the flip side, I like the Vibe’s new front-end styling. The plainness of the doors, however, makes the Vibe look a little slab-sided, and I found its overall shape a little bloated and bulbous from some angles, where the previous generation offered more athleticism. The Vibe, which is related to the Toyota Matrix, receives all-new exterior styling for 2009 that gives the car a much smoother appearance than before thanks to flowing lines in the side body panels and the disappearance of its cladding. Aside from a few shortcomings in the cabin, it’s a well-executed model overall. It offers enough room for a family of four and their belongings, and is available with all-wheel drive - a must-have feature for some drivers. The Vibe is particularly well-positioned for buyers who want to wean themselves off their SUV addiction. All of this makes Pontiac’s redesign of its Vibe for the 2009 model year look very smart. Smaller is better these days, and the hatchback segment in particular is experiencing a resurgence. It wasn’t long ago that SUVs were the statement of choice for American drivers, but now, with the rapid rise of gas prices, they’ve gone from being coveted to being shunned. When it was new, the 2009 Fit earned our 2009 Best Subcompact Car for the Money award.It’s amazing how quickly things can change in the car world. The Fit has class-leading safety ratings. The highly-ranked 2009 Honda Fit is a compact car with an impressive amount of interior space, including a large, versatile cargo area. However, the Vibe edges out the Elantra with better safety scores. The Elantra has a nicer interior than the Vibe and was the 2009 U.S. Reviewers praised its roomy rear seats, and were impressed with its ample trunk space. The 2009 Hyundai Elantra isn’t a hatchback, but it’s one of the most spacious small sedans you can get. See the full 2009 Pontiac Vibe specs » Other Cars to Consider The Vibe does come standard with electronic stability control and electronic brake-force distribution, which aren’t standard in many 2009 small cars.ĭespite its mundane performance, the 2009 Pontiac Vibe has plenty of cabin space, class-leading safety features and good fuel economy ratings. Upper trims offer air conditioning, cruise control, steering-wheel mounted audio controls, an upgraded stereo and leather seats. The base model comes with a four-speaker stereo with an auxiliary input jack and satellite radio, but there’s no air conditioning. The Vibe’s list of standard interior features is mediocre. Though the base 1.8-liter four-cylinder engine has acceptable power, reviewers preferred the additional power from the 2.4-liter engine. However, reviewers weren’t enthused with its performance, which they characterized as competent, but bland. The Vibe has great fuel economy ratings of 26/32 mpg city/highway, considering it seats five comfortably and can carry a lot of stuff. All-wheel drive is also available, which is rare in this class. It also has a comfortable five-seat cabin with plenty of leftover room for cargo. If practicality is important, a used 2009 Pontiac Vibe could be perfect for you.

The Copts are the result of crossbreeding with all the nations that successfully dominated Egypt. In 1839, Jean-François Champollion suggested that: "In the Copts of Egypt, we do not find any of the characteristic features of the ancient Egyptian population. Another early example of the controversy is an article published in The New-England Magazine of October 1833, where the authors dispute a claim that " Herodotus was given as authority for their being negroes." They point out with reference to tomb paintings: "It may be observed that the complexion of the men is invariably red, that of the women yellow but neither of them can be said to have anything in their physiognomy at all resembling the Negro countenance." The leading French scientist of the 18th century, Georges Cuvier, considered the Egyptians to be Caucasian, and it was with Cuvier that Augustus Granville sided in the dissection and first scientific autopsy of an ancient Egyptian mummy in 1825. He goes on to postulate, "the Copts were "true negroes" of the same stock as all the autochthonous peoples of Africa" and they "after some centuries of mixing., must have lost the full blackness of its original color." Jacques Joseph Champollion-Figeac criticized Volney and called his conclusion "evidently forced and inadmissible". Volney also said that the Sphinx gave him the key to the riddle as to why all the Egyptians he saw across the country "have a bloated face, puffed-up eyes, flat nose, thick lips – in a word, the true face of the mulatto." He wrote he was tempted to attribute it to the climate, but upon visiting the Sphinx, its appearance gave him the answer "seeing that head, typically negro in all its features", Volney saw it as the "true solution to the enigma (of how the modern Egyptians came to have their 'mulatto' appearance)". In the 18th century, French philosopher and abolitionist, Constantin François de Chassebœuf, comte de Volney, in a set of comments regarding the race of the ancient Egyptians, wrote that "the Copts are the proper representatives of the Ancient Egyptians due to their jaundiced and fumed skin, which is neither Greek nor Arab, their full faces, their puffy eyes, their crushed noses, and their thick lips.the ancient Egyptians were true Negroes of the same type as all native born Africans". Within Egyptian history, despite multiple foreign invasions, the demographics were not shifted substantially by large migrations. In addition, scholars reject the notion, implicit in the notion of a black or white Egypt hypothesis, that Ancient Egypt was racially homogeneous instead, skin color varied between the peoples of Lower Egypt, Upper Egypt, and Nubia, who in various eras rose to power in Ancient Egypt. Mainstream scholars reject the notion that Egypt was a white or black civilization they maintain that applying modern notions of black or white races to ancient Egypt is anachronistic. In more recent times some writers continued to challenge the mainstream view, some focusing on questioning the race of specific notable individuals such as the king represented in the Great Sphinx of Giza, native Egyptian pharaoh Tutankhamun, Egyptian Queen Tiye, and Greek Ptolemaic queen Cleopatra VII. Some scholars argued that ancient Egyptian culture was influenced by other Afroasiatic-speaking populations in North Africa, the Horn of Africa or the Middle East, while others pointed to influences from various Nubian groups or populations in Europe. A variety of views circulated about the racial identity of the Egyptians and the source of their culture. The question of the race of ancient Egyptians was raised historically as a product of the early racial concepts of the 18th and 19th centuries, and was linked to models of racial hierarchy primarily based on craniometry and anthropometry. The representation of ethnic groups in Egyptian iconography has been a source of dispute among scholars. ![]() Each group is also marked with their own distinctive hairstyles and clothing. The Egyptian is reddish-brown, while the Nubian is black. In terms of skin colour, the Libyan has the lightest complexion, followed by the Asiatic who is yellowish in appearance.

![]() It was an exciting day when I observed, for the first time, a chimpanzee using and making tools to “fish” termites from their nests. At first the chimpanzees ran away as soon as they saw me, but once I gained their trust I soon realized just how similar they are to us. National Geographic Creative / Hugo van Lawick Gombe, Tanzania - Jane formed a close bond with young Fifi. ![]() He took me despite my lack of academic credentials - or even because of them as he wanted someone with a mind uncluttered by the reductionist scientific thinking of the time. He felt that a knowledge of the primate most like us would help him to better understand the probable behavior of our Stone Age ancestors whose fossilized remains he was excavating. He was impressed by my knowledge of African animals (I had read every book I could find) and sent me to observe chimpanzees in what was then Tanganyika. (I worked as a waitress to save enough money to go.) And it was in Kenya that I met the eminent paleontologist, Dr Louis Leakey. Opportunity came with a letter from a school friend inviting me for a holiday to Kenya. I couldn’t afford to go to university so I got a secretarial job in London. They thought I was very weird, but then I thought they were very weird, too. I remember being surrounded by girls who said to me, “Don’t you dream of being a lady-in-waiting?” I replied, “Absolutely not – I want to live among wild animals.” They recoiled in horror. Obviously to me, this was completely absurd but I had to humor Michael, and so I lined up in Buckingham Palace to shake hands with the Queen. Michael was keen to present me at court as a debutante - in those days society girls had a season of dances and balls - a kind of marriage market. ![]() My paternal uncle was Sir Michael Spens, son of Lord Patrick Spens. I remember a very funny time in my life just before I got to Africa. I’ve shared that message with young people around the world, and so many have thanked me, and said, “You taught me that because you did it, I can do it too.” I wish mum was around to hear the way her message to me has touched so many lives. It was only my mother who supported my dream: “You’ll have to work hard, take advantage of opportunities and never give up,” she’d tell me. Dolittle, Tarzan and Mowgli in The Jungle Book - all male characters. I didn’t have any female explorers or scientists to look up to but I was inspired by Dr. When I was a little girl, I used to dream as a man, because I wanted to do things that women didn’t do back then such as traveling to Africa, living with wild animals and writing books. The Chevy Service department said this is not normal.They said the pressure should be 30-40psi and only go up with rpm's. My 1.5T still raises pressure 30psi-65psi without rpm increase. These engines with the main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are factory built with an ACDelco® oil filters. Main gallery feedback oil pump control systems are present on the following engine families which use Spin-on oil filters: Small Gas Engine (SGE), Large Gas Engine (LGE), High Feature (HFV6) Gen2 and Small Block Gen5 gasoline engines. This change reduces the amount of time it takes to provide oil to the engine bearing and lifters during extreme cold start conditions. This means that the oil pump now does not begin to regulate until pressure is built up to the main gallery. ![]() As a result, the oil filter specifications of the production oil filter and the service oil filter were also improved to meet the new engine requirements.īeginning in 2012, the oil pumps began to regulate main gallery feedback instead of pump out pressure. The oil pressure was increased to accommodate these tighter tolerances. The use of a replacement oil filter with an internal bypass valve opening pressure specifications of 15 PSI (100 kPa) or less, allows debris to circulate in the engine causing damage to bearings and other tight tolerances areas, which may result in premature engine failure. The proper match of oil filter to engine application is more important than it has ever been in the past. Today's engine has very tight tolerances, two stage oil pumps and high flow lubrication system requirements. |
