The JBL Xtreme 4 Outdoor Speaker Is $130 Off Ahead of Prime Day

We may earn a commission from links on this page. Deal pricing and availability subject to change after time of publication. The JBL Xtreme 4 is massive, right at the limit of what I would consider a portable speaker, with powerful sound that can handle a large backyard barbecue party. Right now, it's $130 off during Early Prime Day, bringing its price down to $249.95 (originally $379.95). That's a record low price for this particular speaker, according to price tracking tools. Even though Prime Day doesn't officially start until next week, I doubt this speaker will go any lower in price. I've been using the JBL Xtreme 4 outdoor speaker for months, taking it with me to hang out in my backyard, in my office, and to host soccer games with Street FC. Since I ...

Covid hospitalisation, lifestyle behaviours may have caused sudden deaths: Study

Hospitalisations due to severe Covid-19 infection, a family history of sudden deaths, as well as lifestyle behaviours are some of the reasons behind the unexplained sudden death, according to a study led by the Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR). The peer-reviewed study published in the Indian Journal of Medical Research explored factors associated with unexplained sudden deaths among adults aged 18-45 years in India. It showed that Covid vaccination was not responsible for sudden and unexplained deaths seen among young and healthy individuals. The study was conducted in 2023, following anecdotal reports of sudden, unexplained deaths in India`s apparently healthy young adults, which were linked to Covid-19 infection or vaccination. "Covid-19 vaccination did not increase the risk...

Women`s health more severely affected than men`s during Covid-19 pandemic: Study

Women`s mental and physical health took a severe toll than men during the deadly Covid-19 pandemic, finds a study. The study, published in the journal Social Science and Medicine, showed that psychological distress increased for both women and men during the pandemic, with women experiencing a greater rise. The link between health behaviours and mental health weakened for women during the pandemic, with a healthy lifestyle no longer showing a significant connection to mental health. In contrast, these relationships remained consistent for men. Before the pandemic, health behaviours offered greater protective benefits for women`s mental health, but during the pandemic, this protective effect became stronger for men, revealed researchers from the University of Aberdeen in Scotland. "We f...

There will never be a hot AI-generated band. Or will there? Many say there already is – National

We’ve been acquainted with fake bands for years, animated proxies for real-life human meat bags who compose and perform the songs: The Archies, Prozzak, and Gorillaz are just a few examples. If we want to get a little more complicated, there’s Japan’s Hatsune Miku, a holographic creation capable of performing live concerts using something called Vocoloid singing synthesis technologies developed by Yamaha. But she wouldn’t be able to perform without human-created music.What do they all have in common? We know that they’re fake. Today… well, it’s getting difficult to determine what we’re being fed.When we started talking about artificial intelligence a few years back, some openly wondered how long it would take before we had an AI music star. Technically, it seemed possible, if not for the f...

1 in 4 school-going teenagers at risk of developing mental health issues: Study

One in every four school-going adolescents is at risk of developing mental health illness, according to a recent study, that stressed the need for early interventions. The study, led by researchers at the Indira Gandhi Medical College and Research Institute in Puducherry, called for significant intervention at school and home. “Adolescence is a crucial period during which biological and psychosocial changes occur in an individual. One-fourth of the adolescents were found to be at risk of mental health illness, so periodic screening could be done at schools, for early identification and proper treatment of mental disorders,” said researchers including Kavita Vasudevan, Head of Community Medicine at the institute. The study aimed to determine and compare the prevalence and risk factors as...

How Canada’s election may have left ‘gaps’ in U.S. travel advice – National

Newly-released documents show Global Affairs Canada knew it was facing criticism from Canadians days into the federal election over a “lack of information” on travel advice to the United States after the Trump administration launched a border crackdown, including enhanced security at ports of entry. But with Canada in a caretaker government at the time, bureaucrats weighed the potential “sensitivities” of acting during a federal election campaign that revolved around U.S.-Canada relations.Documents obtained by Global News through access to information laws show the department was aware Canadians were concerned about visiting the U.S., but federal officials lagged non-governmental organizations in providing citizens with guidance on the risk of searches of electronics and the possibility of...
