2018 Volvo XC60 SUV Review
The new second generation Volvo XC60 tested in Ireland
Pros: Superb comfort levels, safety-technology, stylish
Cons: More expensive than before, rivals are more engaging to drive
The XC60 Is one of the most popular mid-sized premium SUVs in Europe and it is the latest model in Volvo's range to undergo a significant overhaul. The new second-generation XC60 went on sale in mid-2017 and it boasts similar interior and exterior styling as Volvo's range-topping XC90 SUV, which is a great thing. What's more, the XC60 places a higher emphasis on safety, technology and efficiency than before too. It has an endless list of rivals to compete with, including Audi's Q5, the all-new BMW X3 and Mercedes-Benz GLC-Class. We spent a week with the new XC60 recently to see how it has evolved from the first-generation model and if it can continue the success of its predecessor.
What is it like?
The new XC60 shares styling similarities with its big brother, the XC90, including a large front grille with integrated Thors Hammer LED headlights, muscular side mouldings and stylish LED brake lights at the rear. As standard, it is equipped with 18-inch five spoke alloy wheels, while the range-topping Inscription model that we tested gains 19-inch 10-spoke alloy wheels and additional technology inside.
The XC60 boasts one of the finest interiors in its class. It's incredibly spacious and mirrors the XC90 but on a smaller scale, with a vibrant nine-inch tablet-style touch screen and a 12.3-inch TFT digital driver's display on higher specification models. Leather upholstery is standard across the range along with chrome detailing, and the materials are sturdy and of high quality. There is ample room for four tall passengers and knee, shoulder and head room is especially good in the rear seats. The XC60 isn't available with seven seats unlike the XC90, however boot space is plentiful at 505 litres.
The XC60 is available with a comprehensive range of engines. The diesel range consists of a 190bhp 2.0-litre diesel (D4) or a more powerful 235bhp version of the same engine (D5). There is also a 250bhp 2.0-litre turbocharged petrol unit (T5) and a 2.0-litre plug-in hybrid petrol unit (T8), however the D4 and D5 diesels are likely to be the popular choice here. Both two or four-wheel drive versions are available and there is also a choice of manual or Volvo's smooth automatic transmissions. We drove the D4 diesel with automatic transmission and all wheel drive and it is very well-suited to Irish roads. 0-100km/h takes 8.4 seconds and low-down torque delivery is strong. We averaged 6.5-litres/100km in fuel economy with annual motor tax listed at €280.
The XC60 specialises in comfort and refinement rather than sportiness and driver engagement. It isn't as responsive as cars like the BMW X3 and the Jaguar F-Pace on twisty roads with considerable body roll, however it is nonetheless reassuring to drive and well-suited to town-based driving. Comfort is superb with an incredibly cosseting suspension setup, and our test car is equipped with adjustable air suspension with different driving modes such as comfort and dynamic settings. The XC60 is one of the most safety-conscious family cars too, with a suite of safety aids including Volvo's Intelligent Driver Information System.
Prices for the XC60 start from €53,950 which is considerably more expensive than the outgoing first-generation model. While the entry price has risen, so too has the level of standard equipment. The base specification Momentum model includes features such as rear park assist, an electric tailgate, LED headlights, 18-inch alloy wheels, leather upholstery, the 9-inch infotainment screen and lots more. Prices for the range-topping Inscription model that we tested start from €60,790, adding larger 19-inch alloy wheels with the 12.3-inch Active TFT driver's information display and Soft Nappa leather upholstery. There is also a mid-range R-Design model which offers a stable middle ground between both the Momentum and Inscription specifications.
Carzone verdict: 4.5/5
The new second generation XC60 is a much-improved package and it is one of the best models currently on sale in the premium SUV segment, thanks to its luxurious and well-crafted cabin, economical diesel engines and class-leading ride quality. It leads the way in terms of technology too, with superb infotainment and display screens and an astonishingly high level of safety features that work autonomously. The Xc60 is more expensive than before however and it sits at the high end of the premium SUV scale as a result, while some of its rivals are also more engaging to drive. As a premium SUV package, there are few better options on the market right now.

Combined authority agrees to external audit amidst claim of the organisation being in 'chaos' following sacking of latest chief finance officer
PUBLISHED: 14:19 12 December 2018 | UPDATED: 14:33 12 December 2018
Richard Marsham - RMG Photography Tel - 07798 758711
External auditors are to be called in to examine the workings of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority following the sacking of the chief financial officer and amid claims the organisation is in chaos.
Councillors hope that the audit will shine a spotlight on the accounts and spending of the combined authority, which oversees major housing and transport projects across the county.
On November 30, Karl Fenlon, the chief financial officer was officially "dismissed", making him the fourth chief financial officer to leave the authority since it was set up in 2017.
Cllr Steve Count, leader of Cambridgeshire County Council and investment and finance portfolio holder at the combined authority told a meeting of the full county council that there was to be an external review into the finances of the combined authority.
Cllr Count was responding to questions from Lib Dem Cambridge City Councillor Rod Cantrill, who said the authority was in "chaos" after losing four chief financial officers.
Cllr Count said Mr Fenlon's departure had been "abrupt" but said the organisation was "hardly in chaos". He said that, in the spirit of accountability and transparency, the authority had committed to an external review, as well as an on-going internal review which has been going since September.
It is hoped auditors will be appointed soon, and findings can be presented to the authority's board in the New Year.
Mayor James Palmer said: "Following the departure of the interim chief financial officer I have decided it is prudent in the circumstances to seek an independent review of the budget of the Cambridgeshire and Peterborough Combined Authority to ensure there is confidence in the work that took place during his time at the authority, especially the preparation of the medium term financial strategy.
"We will move quickly to appoint external auditors to carry out that review immediately, which will be delivered and presented to the combined authority board in the New Year, giving us an independent check and balance on our financial position."
Mr Palmer said there have "understandably been questions" surrounding the budget position since the departure of Mr Fenlon.
"I believe we now need clarity around the assumptions and narrative of the recently-agreed four-year medium term financial strategy, presented by the former interim CFO at the overview and scrutiny committee meeting in November," said Mr Palmer. "We expect this review to confirm there is a fully balanced budget in line with proper regulation.
Mr Palmer said the external financial report will complement the "more thorough review work" that has been ongoing internally at the combined authority since September and which commenced soon after the departure of the former chief executive.
The current internal review is being led by joint interim chief executive John Hill, who is sharing the role with Kim Sawyer. The review includes looking at the budget, staffing, performance management, and governance processes.
"This is a sensible and needed measure," said Mr Palmer. "That review is already delivering results and the combined authority has so far implemented changes to performance reporting, project management and reporting and budgeting.
"The balanced four-year medium term financial strategy was also one of the key improvements that have come from the joint interim chief executive's ongoing review.
"Be assured that nothing is on hold while both of these reviews are being carried out and our work on delivering on our transformational agenda for Cambridgeshire and Peterborough continues at pace."

The Talk: Case
|Post comment
|House, Garden & Pets
|Promotion & Event
|United States
o Situation As racial tensions are resurfacing in America, many would rather avoid discussing race. However, the general consensus is that in order to progress, there must be dialogue. For this reason, the objective for "The Talk" was to get America as a whole to talk about racial bias. o Brief Use the brands voice to start a broader conversation about racial bias with the goal that it would lead to positive change for the black community. Black women continue to persevere the intersectionality of race and gender in society and since P&G has always shown support for Moms and MBIB has always empowered Black women, we wanted to celebrate the strength of black women preparing, protecting and encouraging their kids despite the painful issue of bias. o Objectives -Begin a real discussion about racial bias in the US -Relaunch P&G's My Black Is Beautiful and begin tackling social issues
o Data gathering Due to its sensitive nature, "The Talk" was extensively tested prior to launch. The team studied an array of experiences from black Americans who've had the talk to ensure the film covered a diverse range of issues and perspectives. o Target audience (consumer demographic/individuals/organizations) Given the importance of the topic, we needed to spark a broad-reaching conversation. Black, Caucasian, Latino, Asian, the work had to be relevant to society as a whole. o Relevance to social platform The film was specifically created to be shareable on social media platforms. With an opening designed to pull you in and provocative content that drew people to share and comment, the film thrived best on social media o Approach "The Talk" was distributed on owned social platforms, and shared by MBIB Social Ambassadors. After its launch. it was shared naturally by other social bloggers, which greatly amplified its reach.
o Reach Since launch, "The Talk" has garnered over 1.4 billion earned media impressions. o Engagement The film has been viewed over 15 million times online and by millions through broadcast placement. The integration into the episode of black-ish was seen by nearly 4 million viewers live. o Sales The main objective for the campaign was to raise awareness for a sensitive social issue. For that reason, we refrained from placing any products or logos in the ad. However, consumer sentiment was 86% positive. o Achievement against business targets "The Talk" significantly outperformed Ace Metrix industry norms when compared to industry leading P&G and external ads that are considered best in class and impressively ranked among the top 10% of 50,000 ads. It was covered by outlets such as NBC, CBS, The Washington Post, HuffPost, People, Fortune, Fast Company, Bloomberg and more.
o Implementation The work launched first online and via social media, but quickly moved to broadcast where it continued to pick up placements and eventually was integrated into the popular TV show Black-ish. o Timeline The campaign launched nationally on June 16th, 2017 in the United States and continues to surface on various media channels. o Placement "The Talk" ran on broadcast television, including networks like BET, Bounce, OWN and Revolt. The videos were also distributed on P&G and My Black Is Beautiful owned platforms, which included P&G Facebook, P&G Twitter MBIB Facebook, MBIB Twitter, MBIB Instagram, and MBIB YouTube. The videos were also shared by MBIB Social Ambassadors. o Scale The work was rolled out on a national scale, but as it picked up coverage, foreign audiences were exposed to it via international press.
We created a film that spans several decades, showing that while many things have progressed in our world, "The Talk" has remained the same and necessary rite of passage for black Americans for too many generations. The film features intimate moments where black parents of various eras and social classes attempt to prepare their sons and daughters for the difficulties and dangers of growing up black in America., The film culminates with a call for society as a whole to be part of a larger conversation about racial bias, so that one day, black families will no longer need to have "The Talk." Because until we all talk about "The Talk", nothing will change.

Tyree Minner is a family man—an attribute that translates well to his role as plant manager of the Chrysler Group's newly renovated Sterling Heights Assembly Plant (SHAP). His nurturing leadership style and management ability inspire in others a sense of pride and integrity that can be seen in the quality of every car that rolls off the assembly line and onto the street.
Tyree sat down to talk with Chrysler Forward Look and even took us on an exclusive tour of the SHAP facility, home of the All-New 2015 Chrysler 200.
Forward Look: What makes Chrysler manufacturing stand out against the competition?
Tyree: World-Class Manufacturing (WCM), a manufacturing philosophy evident in every Chrysler Group facility globally, is our secret weapon.
The WCM methodology is at the core of everything we do—it's how we operate on a daily basis, with the goal of eliminating waste. At the same time, WCM is improving safety, quality, efficiency and flexibility while adding value to our products.
Here at SHAP, we implement 10 technical pillars and 10 managerial pillars that focus our efforts on incremental levels of improvement and results that are clearly identifiable and measurable.
Forward Look: How will these new processes contribute to the plant's overall productivity and efficiency?
Tyree: When we began work on the SHAP, we looked at the life-cycle cost associated with equipment, operations and the facility, and tailored our processes according to the WCM standard. Here are just a few examples.
- The new paint facility uses an innovative Friction Drive System to move the vehicle on eight miles of conveyor through the different phases of the paint process. It pushes vehicles using pressure discs, instead of the conveyor chains traditionally used in most assembly plants. With fewer moving parts, the system reduces equipment cost, energy consumption, noise and maintenance cost, while decreasing sources of contamination due to the lack of chain oil.
- SHAP uses a powder primer paint system for the 2015 Chrysler 200, which saves cost and reduces the impact to the environment by utilizing 97 percent of all powder.
- Ergonomics are a critical aspect to worker efficiency. We have engineered machines that are capable of rotating a vehicle 180 degrees so that it is positioned in a way that is most efficient for the operator.
- We also have installed line-side limos, which are devices that track along with the vehicle so the operator doesn't waste time and energy walking back and forth on the line.
Forward Look: What are you most proud of as plant manager of this new facility?
Tyree: I'm most proud of this resilient workforce. When I first got here in April 2010, this plant was scheduled to close. This workforce didn't give up; they got back up and worked to become stronger than they were before. Three years later, we are proud to be launching the All-New 2015 Chrysler 200.
Stay tuned next week as Tyree Minner walks Chrysler Forward Look through each of the nine phases needed to give the All-New 2015 Chrysler 200 its perfect paint job.

Regardless Of Our Age, Life Is Best When We Are Experiencing Extra-Ordinary Health. Answer these question:
At Coherence Health And Wellness we offer a Functional approach to Blood Work Analysis.
We offer a variety of blood work options that can be as simple as just checking your A1-C …or as detailed as performing a comprehensive blood work profile.
Utilizing blood work, problem areas can be identified and carefully documented so that proactive measures may be taken to help you attain optimal health and improved function…..this will then be spelled out for you with a Comprehensive Functional Health Report.
Staying with our philosophy of working to improve 'Function' of the body – Physically, Organically and Emotionally – we can utilize blood work to identify biochemical imbalances that will help us to see where your body's challenges may lie in terms of 'Dys-Function', and therefore, causing or contributing to your health challenge or unwanted symptoms.
Once we have the results of your lab data we can generate your Functional Health Report.
A Functional Health Report takes your lab data and analyzes it to help you understand what's going on inside your body. Like a finger print, people are individuals with unique biochemical characteristics. Even for people with the same condition, their contributing imbalances may be very different. That's why for optimal results, health decisions should incorporate understandable, actionable information about your biochemistry. That is exactly what The Functional Health Report does.
In other words, your Functional Health Report provides information on your specific needs and doesn't lump you into a diagnostic category, and then based on that diagnostic category recommend drugs just like everyone else would get that has that same medical diagnosis (i.e….all individuals diagnosed as Diabetic get pretty much the same approach in terms of drug therapy in a conventional medical practice).
That being said, we are not in the business of treating medical conditions, and that is the beauty of your Functional Health Report. Disease or unwanted symptoms in the body is often a reflection of imbalance, and the imbalances you have that may be causing your 'sugar dysregulation' problems may be completely different from the imbalances of another person that is also having 'sugar dysregulation' problems. Two people, same challenge but different reasons for their challenge. And so, to get a desirable result for those 2 people, they MUST be addressed uniquely based on their specific 'biochemical imbalances'.
As an example case, A 49 year old male…..
showed a number of classic magnesium deficiency signs, but a standard blood test showed his magnesium was in the normal range. His Functional Health Report revealed he needed to maintain a higher dose of magnesium to remain healthy. He increased his magnesium intake. Within days, his fatigue vanished, the dark circles under his eyes began to fade, his blood pressure lowered, his HDL levels rose, and his blood sugar control improved.
And that is the power of A Functional Health Report. It's like talking directly to your body. Your Functional Health Report helps you understand:
Studies show health issues stem from biochemical imbalances. In fact, each "disease" is really a specific pattern of biochemical imbalances. Your Functional Health Report works by analyzing results from your lab data. It identifies your body's unique biochemical patterns and makes specific, scientifically based recommendations.
This will allow you to:
So….How do you know if you're truly healthy?
Many problems show up in the blood long before you actually "feel" symptoms… for example…
Did you know…. How you feel is no indication of how healthy you are?
Did you know…. You can have just 20% kidney or liver function left, yet show virtually no symptoms.
Did you know….Your body will break down muscle, bone and other body tissue in order to free up nutrients for more important bodily processes when you have nutritional deficits?
Did you know….Certain tests can identify environmental toxicities and their effect on your health?
Did you know….Using objective laboratory testing allows our Team to evaluate your unique results & identify emerging health challenges, before it's too late?
The Fact Is……Certain tests, when read properly, can indicate how to best support your body before serious illness develops and even after you've developed a health challenge you want to work to resolve.
The SECRET…….Early detection and correction are key elements to living a healthy life…..so, we look forward to serving your nutritional needs and empowering you to live a high energy and vibrant life.
We look forward to meeting you and helping you achieve your health goals!

I've been asked, "Can I get my contracts E-signed -- send my contract to a client as an email attachment, get an electronic signature and then have the E-signed contract emailed back to me?"
Search on the Web for "Free E-sign." You'll find a dozen or more vendors offering free or low-cost ways to E-sign contracts. I'll use Silanis E-signLive™ to explain how it works. There's no charge if you E-sign ten contracts or less per month.
- E-signing won't work for anyone who doesn't use email and the Web.
- You can draw a "signature" with your mouse. But a written signature isn't required.
- A new E-sign customer has to create an account before E-signing the first time.
- Be sure to drop a signature block everywhere a signature is needed in the contract.
- Don't send a contract out to be signed until it's exactly the way you want it.
- Any attempt to alter a signed contract will invalidate the digital signatures.
Another important point. Consumers have to receive a disclosure notice and E-sign a consent form before E-signing their first contract. Both the notice and consent form can be delivered automatically with the first contract.

bodies are shifting all around me, stepping from one square brick to the next. at some point, someone took a brick to hand and placed it here, carefully glueing a stepping stone for all to conquer. yet there's no movement here. i watch faces pass each other in utter disinterest. like lukewarm water escaping the palm of my hands and heading downward through my fingers. i'm out of touch.
i crave mayhem, i crave for the rush. i'm afraid there's no progress. and maybe the city is underwater, slowing down movement as some rip through their muscles trying to paddle forward, unable to beat the current.

First day of my favorite madness. I flew to New York hella early Friday morning and took a cab straight to Rachel's place in Bushwick, aka second home. After spending a week in a desert at Burning Man (diary post coming soon), the phrase culture shock doesn't even explain it.
Rachel hadn't quite come alive for the day yet, so I had this cute thought that maybe I could nap before we started the day. Then it clicked that I'm in New York and was like LOL we have about an hour to get ready and get an uber to our first show. Wishful thinking, ya feel me?
We hit up two shows yesterday: Sally LaPointe and Martin Keehn. Sally LaPointe was basically everything I want to be… clean black/white, classy but somehow still casual. I'd wear Sally LaPointe to grab a tea down the street or a cocktail at the Dream. And seeing how some of my favorite brands are Skingraft, ODD, etc, it was pretty easy to obsess over Sally LaPointe. Martin Keehn was also great because I hadn't seen a menswear presentation in a while and the vibe of the show was really chill and not so rushed feeling like most of fashion week.
In between shows Rachel and I also stopped at the Sequin NYC showroom. My good friend is the PR girl at Sequin and she hooked us up with some cool jewels. After the three events of the day my the bottom of my feet felt like they were gonna explode (can't complain though, I mean look at those amazing Steve Maddens) and I needed some grub in my system. So Rachel and I ended the night by ordering sushi in bed and watching the L word and falling asleep by the exciting hour of 11:30pm.

"our hearts are wild creatures. that's why our ribs are cages" she mutters as she pours the end of her lagavulin bottle on the pile of furs and jewels on her living room floor, with that look on her face like mistakes are just nature's thrill seekers.
she's an old soul in an old body. she's had more than most people ever will. she's lived beyond the point of giving a fuck, because giving a fuck requires explaining your past to your present.
and that theme has resurrected her old habits.
it's been 8 days since she left the house, 4 days since she had solid food, and 22 hours until she would fall into a lasting coma beside her fur on the living room floor.
she finally takes a seat next to me, letting her fragile body sink into a love seat that costs more than my chevy parked in her ten-car driveway.
"when i was 8 i broke three ribs" she takes a slow drag of her hand-rolled cigarette, "when they woke me up on the hospital bed asking how it happened, i broke out laughing"
smoke comes out of her mouth and dances away from her lips in the shape of poorly-drawn circles, and for the first time during my 3 hour visit to her home, she looks up at me,
"i found it funny that the doctors didn't realize how wild a heart can be."

Abbas Wants Schedule From U.S.
A Mideast summit this weekend kicked off 10 days of high level diplomacy that will end up at the White House later this month.
The diplomatic drive for progress on a Mideast peace plan widened Monday when the Palestinian premier headed to Egypt for talks and the European Union planned to host the Israeli and Palestinian foreign ministers in Brussels.
CBS News Correspondent Robert Berger reports Israeli Prime Minister Ariel Sharon and his Palestinian counterpart Mahmoud Abbas failed to achieve a breakthrough at their fourth meeting.
The peace process has stalled over the Palestinian demand to release all 6,000 Palestinian prisoners in Israeli jails. Israel is only prepared to release a few hundred. Abbas will urge President Bush to pressure Israel on the prisoner issue when the two meet at the White House on Friday. Sharon will visit the White House four days later.
Sharon was expected to address parliament later Monday.
A temporary cease-fire declared by main Palestinian militant groups on June 29 has greatly reduced violence, but progress on the U.S.-backed "road map" peace plan has been thwarted by an Israeli-Palestinian standoff over conditions for moving ahead.
Abbas was to head to Egypt on Monday for talks with President Hosni Mubarak, to be followed by a visit to King Abdullah II in Jordan, most likely on Wednesday. The trip will lead to Washington, where Abbas is to meet Bush at the White House on Friday. Sharon is scheduled to meet separately with Bush on July 29.
In Brussels on Monday, Israeli Foreign Minister Silvan Shalom and his Palestinian counterpart, Nabil Shaath, were to join the European Union foreign ministers for back-to-back meetings. EU diplomats said logistics prevented a joint session.
The EU helped the United States, Russia and the United Nations draft the "road map" plan, which calls for an end to violence and a Palestinian state by 2005. EU officials said they wanted to make sure on Monday that the plan is being implemented and press for more confidence-building measures.
On Sunday, each side indicated willingness to move toward the other — the Palestinians by outlawing violent groups and the Israelis by hinting at new flexibility over release of prisoners.
Palestinian leader Yasser Arafat on Sunday reissued a 1998 decree outlawing incitement to violence and advocating change by use of force, a move aimed at militant groups and anchoring a shaky cease-fire in Palestinian law.
But the meeting, the fourth in Jerusalem between Sharon and Abbas in recent weeks, produced no concrete results on the prisoner dispute and other issues.
Israel currently holds some 7,700 Palestinians in jail and has agreed to release several hundred, though it has refused to free anyone directly involved in attacks on Israelis. Abbas, however, is pressing the Israelis to release thousands of them, including members of militant groups Hamas and Islamic Jihad.
Sharon agreed to consider widening the scope of the releases, but postponed a special ministerial committee meeting on that until after he returns from Washington. The Palestinians said they were disappointed by the delay, hoping that the United States would urge the Israelis to move faster.
Underscoring the fragility of Israeli-Palestinian peace efforts, a 64-year old Israeli man was moderately wounded late Sunday in a stabbing attack in Jerusalem. Israel police spokesman Gil Kleiman said authorities were treating the incident as a probable terrorist attack.
Also on Sunday, a Palestinian man was killed when he activated an explosive charge at a passing Israeli patrol near the West Bank city of Jenin, military sources said. No Israelis were injured in the incident. Palestinian security officials identified the bomber as Rami Isleit, 23, a member of Islamic Jihad.
In what appeared to be an effort to satisfy Israel's demands for action against the militants, the decree issued by Arafat bans "incitement that encourages the use of violence that harms the relations with foreign countries" and says violators would be judged according to Palestinian law.
In language that seemed directed at militant groups, it also bans "illegal organizations that encourage violence and arouse the public to bring about change through force" and "incitement that encourages the violation of the agreements signed by the PLO and foreign countries." That appeared to be a reference to the road map, and making violation of the truce a punishable offense.

in performance: pat metheny unity group
Pat Metheny may just be the closest thing the contemporary jazz world has to a slight of hand magician. During a tireless 2 ½ hour performance last night at the KCD Theater in Louisville, not everything was what it seemed. He conjured acoustic sounds from an electric guitar and later squeezed electric firepower out of an acoustic guitar. Oh, and those keyboard and percussion sounds the audience heard chattering away for most of the night were actually the non-man made products of the Rube Goldberg-like Orchestrion.
Even the evening's repertoire was a surprise. With two albums under his belt by two different versions of his Unity Group, one might suppose Metheny would go the route of the typical jazzer and discard material that could be viewed as a product of the past. Well, that wasn't the case either.
After a show-opening exhibition on the double-necked harp guitar, the founding members of the Unity Group – saxophonist/bass clarinetist/flutist Chris Potter, bassist Ben Williams and drummer Antonio Sanchez – ran through a quartet of meaty mainstream tunes – two of which, The Bat and Folk Song No. 1 came from Metheny's seminal 80/81 album (the guitarist's first recording away from the fusion fold) with the others, Roofdogs and Come and See, hailing from his current troupe's 2012 debut album, Unity Band.
The name change from Unity Band to Unity Group for the new Kin album is more telling than it appears. The new lineup, which added Italian multi-instrumentalist Giulio Carmassi to the quartet, brought a heightened lyricism and orchestral sheen to the music that often recalled the guitarist's career defining Pat Metheny Group. But Carmassi was often an invisible presence, figuratively and literally, last night. He seldom soloed and was hidden from much of the audience's view behind Sanchez. And while he is credited with playing over a dozen instruments on Kin, the majority of what would have been his onstage duties were handled by the Orchestration.
As much a living science experiment as anything else, the Orchestrion is a computer triggeed assembly of instruments – mostly percussive devices along with two cabinets of bottles and jugs that were used as homemade chambers for keyboard sounds. Together with the fiercely organic sounds of the Unity Group, Kin tunes like the gospel flavored Born and the anthemic On Day One, as well as the bolero-like 1982 PMG staple Are You Going With Me?, possessed a sound that was truly epic in scope.
Metheny nicely scaled back the program, though, for a series of duets with his bandmates, including a spry bit of sparring with Williams on 1976's Bright Size Life. Perhaps the grand antithesis of the Orchestrion-directed music was an extended encore medley of melodies from throughout his 35 year that began with Phase Dance and concluded with Last Train Home. The trick? For once, there was none. Metheny served up the history lesson alone on unembellished acoustic guitar.


text: I am a Filipino nurse working in Riyadh. I have a booked flight going to Philippines thru emirates airlines but before going to Philippines, I'll stay in Dubai for 4 nights to be with friends.I called the emirates airlines office in Riyadh and asked about the transit visa but i was told that nurses are not allowed to have a transit visa. Is it true? what about my booking? i really wanted to visit Dubai. Lastly, how long it will take to apply for a transit visa?

We held our inaugural JMP User Forum for the North of England in the one of the most prestigious venues, the Sage Conference Centre. This wonderful building sits like a gleaming eye above the southern bank of the River Tyne, looking northward towards Newcastle's historic centre. And it was in this great venue that John Sall, co-founder of SAS and inventor of JMP, welcomed more than 50 JMP users. Such is the breadth of use of JMP that the audience included users from the agricultural products, banking, chemicals, consumer products goods, insurance, marketing services and pharmaceuticals industries.
In his keynote, John Sall talked about the importance of having a "flow experience" when performing analysis so that you can continue with your train of thought without being interrupted by processing delays. As computer processing power has increased, so has the ability to analyse and visualise larger data sets without pause. SAS leads the way in this respect, being able to handle huge data sets on the desktop with JMP and massive datasets with SAS, in the blink of an eye. John showed how JMP allows you to apply a broad range of different analytical techniques to data problems of different shapes and sizes. He also showed the power of JMP's instant visualisation to help you spot interesting patterns in your data.
In John's Q&A session, one user asked which of JMP's many capabilities John thought was especially good. He said that in his view, JMP's Design of Experiments platform is the golden star, as its creator, Brad Jones, is leading the way in which DOE is applied to complex problems in a resource-efficient way. It seemed appropriate for John to highlight DOE as several of the talks by JMP users illustrated the value that they get from DOE and the particular way it has been implemented in JMP.
Paul Davidson, who works in P&G's low-income markets for fabric and home care (i.e., laundry and detergent products), showcased how he uses JMP to design experiments and uses the Prediction Profiler to optimise product formulations. He also uses JMP for showing results to his management. This is a common requirement, so we will be holding a seminar at our HQ in Marlow on 24 October to show how JMP's visualisation capabilities can increase the speed and effectiveness of business decisions. Join us, if you'd like.
Fiona Baines, a statistician responsible for helping scientists carrying out research and development of hair products at Unilever, showed the add-in application that she developed to quickly and easily compile lab data. This add-in enables scientists to reduce time spent on data manipulation from half a day to a few seconds (yes, a few seconds!). It also adds rigour to the data processing and ensures that the scientists apply the correct analysis to their data. This is important as it allows Unilever to make valid claims about their products.
Phil Kay, the leading chemist at Fujifilm Image Colorants, showed how they use JMP to ensure that all their processes have the necessary capability to ensure that their inkjet products satisfactorily meet all customer specifications.
Claire Crawford, who is one of the leading synthetic chemists at GSK working in the field of optimising chemical process to enable the manufacture of Active Pharmaceutical Ingredients, showed how she is using JMP Pro's PCA and PLS platform to optimise the design and selection of these chemicals compounds.
Jeff Perkinson, JMP's Customer Care Manager, commented that the level of presentation was world-class and that all of them would have made good papers at the Discovery Summit held in the US each year. The Discovery Summit showcases how people working at the leading edge of science and engineering can use JMP to learn more from their data.
