Nolan is also one of the only motorcycle helmet manufacturers that employs a vertically integrated manufacturing strategy. That is, almost every single part in a Nolan helmet is manufactured by Nolan at their facilities and not by a subcontractor.

For starters, the main selling point of the case – the leather – feels like cardboard. If someone on the street randomly handed me this, I’d think it were faux leather. It’s rock-hard, and there appears to only be a thin layer of it. Adding onto the crappy feel is an extremely cheap-feeling black frame that is the opposite of confidence-inspiring. The bottom is left wide open, and the lip on the front is almost nonexistent.

Black and Premium exterior packages provide additional visual differentiation. The Black Exterior Package is offered on both core and R-Dynamic derivatives, introducing distinctive Narvik Black to the grille mesh and surround, hood and tailgate lettering, fender vents, tow-eye cover surround and lower bumper blade. For R-Dynamic derivatives, the hood vent blades, bumper aperture inserts and exhaust finishers are also finished in Narvik Black.

One morning in September, Ive was talking with a few friends, including Chris Martin, of Coldplay, and Stephen Fry, the British actor and writer, in a courtyard beside a community-college hall, a few miles from Apple’s headquarters, in Cupertino. He wore pale, wide pants, cut as if for a chef, and tan suède Clarks shoes, and his hair was cropped. He was maintaining a look captured in a Playmobil figure of him, which his design colleagues made as a Christmas present a few years ago. The seven-inch Ive had on sunglasses and carried an off-white Valextra briefcase. A photograph of the gift is the lock-screen image on Ive’s iPhone.

The view from the Bentley was of dry, yellow fields. “Isn’t this beautiful?” Ive said. “Long shadows, and the sun just tripping over the tops of the trees.” He spoke of landscapes in Marin County, north of San Francisco, that evoke the southwest of England: “Like Devon, some of it, isn’t it? Cornwall. Exmoor.”

Motor1 has a team at the Geneva Motor Show, so look here for live photos of the Velar soon. We’re anxious to see whether this coupe crossover looks as good in real life as it does in Land Rover’s promotional images.

"On both sides, there is no interest in going forward in this Congress. I don’t think this is a partisan thing, and I’m not trying to take any partisan shots here. That’s just the fact of the matter," Whitehouse added.

Unfortunately, some TVs(not all, but enough to make shopping for them a bit of a chore) do things that make them serve as poor monitors. The wonders of overscan are, at least mostly, over(as you’d damn well hope when handed one of the digital inputs that even sub $100 trash monitors can interpret without trouble); but weird processing settings designed to make the image look better under the harsh light of Best Buy, wonky EDID, or awful subpixel tricks (RGBW might be a clever exploitation of human luma sensitivity being greater than chroma sensitivity; but it does some awful thing to some not uncommon computer display use cases).

This year’s Live Case isn’t as much of a gadget, but a better case. It loses the (nifty?) NFC button that allowed you to trigger things such as your flashlight, but I always thought that was pretty poorly implemented given the sheer amount of pressure it took to activate. But the case itself, especially the double-layered version that I have here, is a better product overall. That being said, unless you’re really into customization, it’s still a poorer value than virtually any other case.

So based on PassMark v6.1, the Core-based XSLATE L10 is easily twice as fast as the already quick Pentium-based version. And the new "low-end" L10 is as quick as the old "high-end" B10.

Drivers gain extra peace of mind thanks to SOS Emergency call technology with Automatic Collision Detection and Optimized Land Rover Assistance. In the event of an emergency, an SOS call notifies emergency services of the location of the vehicle. Should the vehicle break down, Optimized Land Rover Assistance transmits the vehicle’s GPS location and vehicle diagnostics data to a recovery company to assist in provisioning the best emergency response.
