USA -- While several states have legalized using marijuana, nobody is in favor of driving under its influence. But as states crack down on high driving, they're struggling to figure out what counts as driving high, and how they can reliably test for it.Currently, if police determine they have reason to suspect a driver of being under the influence -- perhaps due to erratic driving or other behavior -- they can administer a field sobriety test. But unlike alcohol, there's no on-scene breathalyzer for marijuana, and so in order to confirm marijuana use, officers must take drivers to police stations to administer a blood test.
That's interesting. First BIG booze fights cannabis then when cannabis wins they want in.Crazy except today nothing is not crazy. Crazy is the new normal.
The engineering standards of machine tolerance show a small range of acceptable variance from the stated standard. Examples: "An electrical specification might call for a resistor with a nominal value of 100 Ω (ohms), but will also state a tolerance such as '±1%'. This means that any resistor with a value in the range 99 Ω to 101 Ω is acceptable. For critical components, one might specify that the actual resistance must remain within tolerance within a specified temperature range, over a specified lifetime, and so on."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Engineering_tolerance"An example of the concept of tolerance is a shaft for a machine is intended to be precisely 10 mm in diameter: 10 mm is the nominal dimension. The engineer designing the machine knows that in reality, the grinding operation that produces the final diameter may introduce a certain small-but-unavoidable amount of random error. Therefore, the engineer specifies a tolerance of ±0.01 mm ('plus-or-minus' 0.01 mm)."As long as the grinding machine operator can produce a shaft with actual diameter somewhere between 9.99 mm and 10.01 mm, the shaft is acceptable."
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allowance_(engineering)#Confounding_of_the_engineering_concepts_of_allowance_and_toleranceMilitary component tolerance is even more restrictive than standard commercial component tolerance, that is, it allows even less variance. However, even military component tolerance is not zero tolerance. Why do governments apply to frail humans the impossible standard of zero tolerance, that even machines and electronics cannot meet?The law and its authors, enforcers and judges are in love with prohibition and its stolen benefits. For example, the voters of the State of Michigan passed a citizens' initiative recommending that only active THC be grounds for a charge of impairment. The Michigan Supreme Court overruled the scientifically-based will of the voters and allowed prosecutors to use inert THC metabolites as grounds for a charge of impairment. Either the judges are scientifically illiterate or they have a thinly veiled hidden agenda to maintain cannabis prohibition. The result is that any legal medical cannabis patient driving in Michigan is "legally" impaired by court fiat. A petition drive is now underway in Michigan to bring a legalization initiative to the next ballot.First, we take Lansing. Then, we take Washington.
obviously they didn't talk to me!
If You can walk the white line...Don't punish innocent people and everything's good.If someone is so stoned they can not honestly safely drive, then...Honestly is the key word. -0-"""There should be zero tolerance for people driving with any amount of THC in their blood."NOPE! That requires government caging responsible adults who choose to use a SAFER substance! -There's no way around that fact.Colorado, legalized cannabis similar to alcohol. Make any amount of alcohol in the human body, zero tolerance, driving wise!!! See where that gets ya.
I dispute what he's saying. Many smokers are good drivers, and their intoxication is far less than alcohol.If you intend to enforce DUID,you should have public places where smokers can smoke.

Pandemic Brings Major Changes to FDA and Drug Development in 2020

Manufacturers and regulators accelerate R&D and production of new vaccines and therapies.
The imperative to prevent, treat, and cure the deadly COVID-19 virus has generated new research and manufacturing strategies, bolstered by unprecedented support from the federal government, private investors, and timely regulatory guidance and advice. Aware of intense pressure and great opportunity, industry moved quickly to identify compounds with potential to treat ill patients and to mitigate the virus' lethal effects. The federal government poured billions into drug and vaccine development and production through its Operation Warp Speed (OWS) task force. At the same time, FDA struggled to meet often divergent and unclear requests and mandates from the White House and the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS), developments that have undermined public confidence in the agency's independence.
FDA's first crisis involved confusion over the development and approval of diagnostic tests for the COVID-19 pathogen, a situation that resulted in notable delays in public access to products able to reliably identify infected individuals. While FDA was not solely responsible for the situation, knowledgeable observers believe that more proactive leadership from the agency could have accelerated advances in this critical area.
The agency's new commissioner, Stephen Hahn became further entangled in administration efforts to promote certain unproven COVID-19 therapies and to demand that FDA issue Emergency Use Authorizations (EUAs) for potentially harmful treatments. Hahn's initial support for such authorization alienated agency staffers and medical authorities alike and raised concerns about the agency's ability to fully test and vet promising vaccines and other critical therapies.
These issues came to a head in October as vaccine experts within FDA and from leading medical institutions emphasized the importance of obtaining sufficient safety and efficacy data on any vaccine prior to approving it for administration to millions of individuals. This approach was considered critical to offset growing public "vaccine hesitancy" arising from fears that companies and regulators were taking shortcuts to speed the development of COVID-19 vaccines for political purposes. Vaccine manufacturers supported the call for adequate test data to obtain results that could generate public support in the coming months.
The accelerated development of several COVID-19 vaccines highlighted the critical role of FDA's Center for Biologics Evaluation and Research (CBER). In May 2020, CBER Director Peter Marks opted to remain at FDA instead of shifting over to the administration's OWS task force, as did Janet Woodcock, director of the Center for Drug Evaluation and Research (CDER), who moved temporarily to lead OWS therapy development efforts. Under Marks' leadership, CBER issued critical guidance in June clarifying the requirements for developing and testing new vaccines to protect against COVID-19 infection, with an emphasis on the need for large, randomized, placebo-based clinical trials to provide adequate safety and efficacy data, as well as upfront manufacturing information (1). Further guidance in October specified similar approaches for gaining FDA EUA for a new vaccine (2).
Many of these clinical development programs benefited from OWS funding, as did early production of large quantities of test vaccines—a marked change from the usual practice of delaying investment in scale-up and production until clinical testing showed results. The aim was to provide sufficient quantities of any preventive as soon as testing demonstrated an immune response. FDA guidance emphasized the need for early chemistry, manufacturing, and controls (CMC) data, while providing leeway in batch stability records (1). Vaccine sponsors signed up contract manufacturers and other firms to be prepared for fast scale-up when authorized. OWS also supported added production of glass vials and injectors critical for vaccinating hundreds of millions of individuals.
Trains keep running
While shifting many staffers to operations involved in COVID-19 product development and review, FDA also worked overtime to maintain support and approval of new therapies for the usual broad spectrum of serious medical conditions. Innovative biomedical R&D faced added challenges from delays in many new and ongoing clinical trials due to pandemic complications. Moreover, FDA had to cancel regulatory inspections, particularly those involving foreign firms. Instead, the agency looked to evaluate the quality status of an operation producing a new drug or vaccine through greater reliance on compliance history, production records, analysis of actual products, and inspection reports from other trusted regulatory authorities.
Supply chain security for drugs and medical products emerged as a critical issue, as the global pandemic raised fears about reliable access to medicines and their components produced overseas. Shortages in certain vital therapies for treating hospitalized patients, including antibiotics and sedatives, prompted FDA to bolster efforts to detect pending shortages in advance and to support alternative production activities, including broader drug compounding and the administration's "buy American" campaign to expand production of drugs and medical products in the United States. These developments highlighted the importance of manufacturers' ability to establish modern, more reliable pharmaceutical manufacturing operations able to maintain high quality, reliable production with well-documented internal oversight.
The pandemic slowed but did not derail a range of FDA initiatives designed to improve the regulatory process. CDER finalized the overhaul of its Office of New Drugs, with an expanded number of offices and divisions implementing a new team-based "integrated review" approach for assessing new drug applications.
In addition to focusing on vaccine development, CBER's Office of Tissues and Advanced Therapies (OTAT) continued to experience a surge in proposals for developing new cellular and gene therapies and regenerative medicines. Hundreds of investigational new drug applications flooded OTAT, many raising challenging and unique medical and technical issues, including concerns about ensuring product quality, purity, and strength. In expediting development programs, FDA focused on clarifying strategies for product characterization, process validation, scale-up, and ensuring stability.
FDA has approved more than 40 innovative medicines this past year and worked hard to meet user fee time frames for prescription drugs, generics, and biosimilars. Those numbers may drop in the coming months, as sponsors face continued difficulties in launching new clinical trials and in documenting quality manufacturing operations. With the coronavirus again surging across the nation and the world as this historic year draws to a close, the only certainty is that both obstacles and opportunities will continue to challenge biopharmaceutical companies, regulatory authorities, and the research community in the months ahead.

I have made MANY many mistakes as an entrepreneur. I think that making them is important, but it causes you to reflect upon what you've done and how you're going to go about changing your approach or business tactics.
In saying that, isn't it nice sometimes to get a bit of a heads up?
Here are the 6 Class Mistakes I've Made As Female Entrepreneur!
I wanted to do everything. I had such a hard time letting go of being the one that had the final say. Growing my business was a dream of mine. I first started out running my own business and then took on the leadership of other team members.
'Am I willing to die on the mountain for this issue / detail / cause / process?' — this simple questions reminded me to let go of things that just weren't important and focus on things what were.
What are your procedures and how can you create systems / procedures so that you're not micro-managing every detail?
It may not be how you would have done it, but is the result one that you can live with?
I had spent a majority of the early days of my time building my business, and my own career, trying to mitigate and lessen my weaknesses.
Instead of letting go that I wasn't great at one thing or skill, I would hyper focus on trying to master it. We know that when we hyper focus on trying to minimise our weaknesses, we often do that at the expense of our strengths.
When we exalt our strengths, we grow.
When you align and soar in your innate strengths & talents you will be more productive and often more satisfied with your business. The important aspect of this conversation it that you learn to manage your weaknesses. Either by doing that yourself or by hiring in other team members or outsourcing the skills your don't have as strengths.
Playing to and within your strengths is magic for many entrepreneurs to finally understand, because it gives you so much more freedom to be yourself.
I hustled and worked my health and life into the ground.
I was SO focused on hitting an arbitrary rank of success, that I lost so much of my life.
What I needed to give myself permission to do, was rest & restore.
It's one of the major focus ares of my coaching, as I coach with many people who would classify themselves as 'over achievers' and 'work horses'. I am one of them as well.
There are always seasons in our live and businesses, but we can't be working all of the time because it robs our souls of joy and it robs our bodies of health.
I flew by the seat of my pants for over 2 years. Whilst it was exciting at times, it's was EXHAUSTING. I felt like I was always reacting and creating large amounts of new content all the time. I didn't have a clear vision of how I wanted my social media to look like, themes for my business, consistent approach to mentoring or supporting my team.
It does take intentional balance in the beginning to create flow and systems in your business. But once you do it's so dang helpful.
Knowing where you want to go and what you want to achieve is really important.
If you're working hard, work in a direction that feels aligned and future driven.
They say 'comparison is the thief of joy' and I would even write that 'comparison is the thief of identity'.
It's VERY easy in the female entrepreneurial space, espeically with so many things being online these days, to get sucked into comparing yourself.
How someone dresses. How much people spend on a coach. How someone's re-branding looks. What someone is or isn't producing.
It's easy. It's an energy vampire and there are two things that I'd love to offer you.
Stay In Your Own Lane — focus on what you're doing and do it well.
Lift other women up and get over yourself (or unfollow if you can't).
So those are my 5 Mistakes that I've made as a female entrepreneur, coach and business owner. If you are able and committed to the process of reflection and growth you will gain so much insight into the lessons that our mistakes afford.
I'd love to know, what are some of the biggest mistakes you've made in your career / business building path? What were the biggest lessons?
I'd love to offer you a little something to take what I've spoken about even further. If this is an area that you can identify with, lets work together on some mindset areas. I have created a ebook resource + audio education snippet on '9 Ways To Kick-Start Your Business' for you.
This resource is jam-packed with intentional reflections and is supported with my educational audio snippet.
Feel free to grab it here, I'm excited for you to take this conversation further.

I watched the one on the Maserati last night, I don't think its a good reflection on our hobby buying a car for £12-13k and then making it super concours just for a couple of grand profit and a cheesy grin.
I think enough people know the difference between our hobby and what Drew is doing, through his other show which is just about finding stuff, adding some value and then selling it on.
As you watch more of them, the same stuff keeps cropping up - most of the cars he goes to buy are his all-time favourite car, then he alternates between banging on about how important originality is, and wanting to make it into something it's not.
The bits where he visits specialists to have work done can be quite interesting though.
I cannot watch anything with Mike Brewer in it, he might be a nice chap, I don't know, but he annoys me.
Phantomworks has just started again, I watched a new one the other night and I quite like that programme.
My wife even sat and watched a car SOS the other day too!
The Car SOS rebuild of a Citroen DS was interesting. I'm not sure I'd be brave enough to own one, but I do like the idea of a DS in black, de Gaulle style.
Set around the activities of dealer/auctioneer Mathewson's in Yorkshire, the trailer video shows promise. First episode 18th April 8pm I believe, but will double-check this nearer the time.
Ahh! Mathewsons! Fairly local to me [ One always needs to drive more than a dozen miles or so to get to the next town round here]....whilst they always have something interesting, I find their prices to be somewhat eye-watering, for what they have up for sale.
They have an auction coming up soon, the prices there are always on high side imo.


Before beginning development on any residential project there are several steps you will need to take to make sure your new building will be in compliance with local regulations regarding land and construction. Some examples of other residential buildings may be: Apartment buildings, Condominiums, lodging houses, or hotels/motels.
Zoning will be able to tell you the zoning of the property or if there are any special considerations for your project. Most all of this type of project will require special approvals such as conditional use. Zoning staff can guide you through this process and there is also additional information on this site under Land Development.
A minimum of two sets of plans are required for any plan review. If the building for which the plans are being submitted is over 50,000 cubic feet, all plans must be signed and sealed by a registered Architect or Engineer. All plans must be submitted with a City of Madison plan approval application form, which also must be signed by the Building Designer and Supervising Professional. Omission of any required items on your plans or application may result in a delay of your project. The plan review fees need to be paid at the time of submittal.
Once the plans are approved and all other concerned departments have signed off a permit can be issued. Inspection/permit fees will be collected at the time of issuance. If plans have been withheld revisions will need to made and resubmitted for review.

US Official Urges Transparency in Tanzania Mystery Death
Associated Press Monday, 16 September 2019 11:38 AM
KAMPALA, Uganda (AP) — The U.S. health and human services secretary is urging Tanzanian authorities to show transparency in the case of a patient who recently died after suffering Ebola-like symptoms.
Alex Azar, who spoke in Uganda on Monday, told reporters that he and others are "very concerned about the lack of transparency."
Azar urged Tanzania to share laboratory results regarding the case.
He said efforts are underway to secure Tanzania's compliance with international health regulations and its obligations to the World Health Organization "to protect Tanzanians as well as all people in the region."
WHO in a statement last week noted a rumor regarding a death from an unknown illness and said it was sending a team to Tanzania to investigate urgently.
Tanzania's government says there is no confirmed case of Ebola there.

Disney+ Officially Announced That The 'Willow' Series Is On The Way, I'm So Excited
Please tell me you've watched 'Willow'! I loved this movie, the original came out way back in 1988 and it was a dark fantasy style drama.
Well, Disney+ just confirmed that 'Willow' is coming back! It won't be on the big screen as a movie, but it is coming back as a series on Disney+.
A post shared by The Aging Hipster Network (@theaginghipsternetwork)
It's been so long and I'm super excited about this! The original was directed by Ron Howard and he will be returning on this project as executive producer.
Willow, an Original Series from Lucasfilm starring Warwick Davis, with pilot directed by Jon M. Chu, is coming in 2022 to Disney+.
Posted by Star Wars on Thursday, December 10, 2020
Warwick Davis is coming back and will play Willow Ufgood, the same character he did in the original movie! I love that!
It's creatively exciting to not only revisit the world and characters first conceived by George Lucas, Bob Dolman and myself but to see it take flight in such fresh, fun and cinematic ways through the imagination of Jon Kasdan and Team Willow. This isn't a nostalgic throw-back, it's a creative lean-forward and it's a blast to be a part of it all.
Ron Howard – Variety
The 'Willow' sequel series takes place years after the events in the original movie. It's been said that it will introduce completely new characters, although Willow remains the star. I'm highly doubting that Val Kilmer would be in on this.
I can't wait to watch the new adventures that Willow will have in the new 'Willow' sequel series on Disney+! Willow is coming in 2022 to Disney+!

We all know BJ Cole. In fact, I doubt there can be any visitors to At The Barrier who don't possess at least half a dozen albums on which he is featured. From Elton John (Tiny Dancer), Andy Fairweather-Low (Wide Eyed And Legless), Gerry Rafferty (City To City) to the likes of Robert Plant, R.E.M. and John Cale, BJ Cole has long been the guy to call if you're looking for some pedal steel to brighten up your tunes.
It's not just session work and backing band participation that he's known for – BJ was a key and long-serving member both of the seminal Cochise (Britain's own Flying Burrito Brothers) and The Hank Wangford Band. If all that's not enough, he's also released a long string of often highly experimental, solo and collaborative work. The most recent was his Myoptik album of 2015.
Not content with a reputation as the UK's top exponent of the pedal steel, he's also ventured deeply into electronica and has worked with Aphex Twin, Squarepusher and Luke Vibert. BJ Cole is a hugely talented, versatile and major achiever.
For his new album, Daydream Smile, BJ has wound back the clock and returned, more or less, to his roots. Back in the early years of the 20th century, the music of Hawaii was massively popular throughout the world and particularly so in Mainland USA. Its influences were absorbed into blues and C&W and the guitar sounds that originated on the islands found their way into the work of such luminaries as Hank Marvin and Santo & Johnny. An early disciple of such guitar pioneers, BJ had long ago traced their musical styles back to their Hawaiin roots. Daydream Smile is a celebration of those roots.
For the album, BJ is joined by Dave Eastoe, a fine musician with a strong feel for Hawaiian music and particular mastery of the local Slack Key guitar styles. Together, Dave and BJ have composed and performed a charming set of tunes.
Rarely can an album have been so appropriately named. Daydream Smile describes perfectly the visions and emotions that this music evokes. Even on a damp November day in England, the album conjures a scene at a tranquil beach bar where, beer in hand, the listener sits back whilst the Pacific laps around his feet and a glorious sunset illuminates the gentle waves. OK, that might be putting things a bit too poetically, but, after listening to this album, I certainly had a strong urge to pack my bag and head off to somewhere warmer!
The album is predominantly instrumental and that's a great strength. The main instruments are BJ's pedal steel (of course…) and Daves acoustic guitar and vibes. The use of bass and percussion is minimal but highly effective. In fact, of the three songs that feature vocals, only on Down In Old Hawaii are these wholly effective. On this track, a comfortable, relaxed vocal entices the listener towards the islands and the female harmonies are exquisite. Unfortunately, I felt that the vocals on the other two non-instrumental tracks – Daydream Smile and Paniolo Song – were a little strained, and detracted slightly from the beautiful instrumentation.
However, the instrumental pieces are truly delightful, from opening track Slinky Hula Heaven, through the lazy tipsy Doodle, the wistful Little Gem Waltz and Waltz Of The Dolphins to the utterly stunning closing tracks Muscle Beach and Blue Aloha. They're all a sheer pleasure to listen to, as the pedal steel, the guitars and the rest combine to paint that glorious tropical vista.
For anyone planning a beach barbeque any time soon, this BJ Cole album is indispensable. For the rest of you, it's a brilliant listen, guaranteed to bring sunshine to your rainy day. Thanks, BJ Cole!

What are the advantages and disadvantages of Bluetooth headphones?
Basically, the wireless headphones increase freedom of movement and user comfort. That may be one reason why their market share as well as demand keeps rising.
For most, the decision is made for a headphone with cable or without. There are other differences and criteria that help with the purchase. The Bluetooth listeners have begun their triumphal procession a few years ago and in 2016 overtook the wired headphones in sales. No more tangling in the cables or stretching the cable salad for hours. With a Bluetooth headset, the solution is within reach.
It makes sense to spend a few moments with the wired and wireless headsets to highlight the key advantages and disadvantages. Now there is a guarantee for a trouble-free connection on the part of the cable handset. You do not need a Wi-Fi connection or a frequency band. If, for example, the density in a radio cell is too high, interference can occur. When it comes to first-class sound quality, the best results will be achieved with the cable receiver. Over the air you risk quality losses in listening pleasure, which is noticeable in a less clear tone. In the segment of high-tech headphones you will find almost exclusively wired variants. These headphones work the same and guarantee trouble-free reception.Here, too, the developers are constantly working on better sound quality and bringing out new systems and technologies every year.
Those who want a high degree of freedom of movement can not ignore a Bluetooth handset. In addition, these variants make on the road, paid for travel and in the car. Wherever you want your hands free, you should put on wireless headphones. Wiggle contacts and cable break belong to the past. Not to be neglected are the sometimes very small and fiddly headphones that are lost much faster than the competition, which still s.Cable hanging. As a worthwhile alternative to wireless technology, Bluetooth has prevailed in the broad market. These headphones ensure better audio quality and can completely suppress unpleasant noise. There are no crossover frequencies here. Either the headphones receive a signal or not.
Anyone who decides on headphones and digital radio technology transmits his data via radio waves. Here you can distinguish the transmitter and the headphones as a medium. This data transmission is comparable with a radiotelephone. This technology was developed for the short distances, so that wireless headphones often have a smaller width.
With a Bluetooth headset, all Bluetooth devices can be connected. In retrospect, you can listen to music or make phone calls wirelessly. Most Bluetooth headphones have a range of 10 to 20 meters. If you move too far, you will disconnect. At best, an activation will follow as soon as you are within range. Before that, you should pair the two devices together. Compared to the wired headphones, you need to charge the Bluetooth headphones. They bring their battery inside.
In the noise suppression of an active and a passive damping is mentioned. If the in-ear model fits perfectly in the auditory canal and uses plastic or silicone in combination with the earplugs, it can be used to improve the suppression of disturbing noises. At the same time this reinforces the lower notes. In the headphones headphones is also an equally passive damping. We recognize a thicker upper cushions optimal damping. As a result, the bass can amplify and exclude very high noise in the environment.In Active Noise Reduction – short ANC – the headphones exclude the lower frequencies. One of the most important areas of application arises when driving by train or in the tram. Here the driving noise annoying and should be eliminated. This form of noise suppression works just as well with the higher tones as with unforeseen, high-frequency sound waves.
Directly on the headphones are microphones that detect all sounds in the area. If this is the case, the amplifiers in the earpiece create a counter sound that almost eliminates the unwanted noise level. It gets unpleasant when this counter-sound arrives too late. This is often evident in the slight noise that is one of the typical sources of error, especially for ANC headphones. Overall, the Stiftung Warentest rated the active noise cancellation as practical and innovative, as it forecloses street noise.
Which Bluetooth headphones are suitable for outdoor sports?
Sport and exercise not only do body and mind well. For many, the fun is in the foreground. Individual sports such as skating, jogging or Nordic walking require a musical support. The favorite song and driving rhythms have a motivating effect and are part of every sport unit. To optimize the freedom of movement, more and more amateur athletes and professionals rely on Bluetooth headphones.
Basically, all you have to do is load your favourite songs onto your iPod, MP3 player or smartphone. Now the decision is in favour of the headphones. Especially with strong ups and downs, in-ear headphones are recommended. As a practical matter, wireless headphones are rated if they are resistant to splashing water and sweat. In the meantime, there are sports headphones in every price range, which can cope with high demands.
An innovative and secure technology allows you to benefit from optimal wearing properties in a robust case that will not be harmed so quickly. Also recommended are the models with noise cancellation and controls that can be set directly on the surface of the handset. If you want to switch to a different playlist and do not get the MP3 player out of your pocket when you're working hard, the wireless in-ear headphones come into play.
Which Bluetooth headphones are available?
The variations of the available headphones are constantly increasing and increasing the choice significantly. For example, there is an in-house Apple solution that works with the iPhone and iPod. The AirPods look like little stud earrings and are the first wireless version of the Apple Empire. In addition, they also bring an integrated microphone. In-ear headphones are particularly suitable for sports because they sit comfortably in the outer ear and do not restrict your movement comfort. The classics in direct headphone comparison include the on-ear models that come to rest directly on the auricle. They offer demanding listeners a very good sound.
The freedom is increased by the Bluetooth headset, which promises at the same time in the office a needs-based solution for an unbounded communication. Whether in the Internet telephony or the next video conference, a wireless solution is standard, which nobody wants to do without. This is how most high quality wireless headsets are found in online games. In the meantime, gamers do not just gamble on the keyboard and mouse. They also connect with other gamers by voice.
How do bluetooth headphones work without cables?
Over-Ear Headphones: These large-sized headband headphones are over the ears and often have a heavy weight, as they provide the battery. The ear cushions can dampen the ambient noise more effectively and improve the sound quality.
On-Ear Headphones: These hands-free headphones are slightly smaller and more compact compared to the on-ear models. That's how they fit in every baggage. In the field test, the Stiftung Warentest noted a not inconsiderable heat development on the ears.
In-ear headphones: The in-ear versions are small and almost invisible. They combine noise cancellation or attenuation and usually provide a cable connection between the left and right headphones in the control unit. In a direct comparison, slightly thinner basses are noticeable. In addition, it is hardly possible to consistently exclude the ambient noise.
Bluetooth is an innovative way of transferring data because it keeps the sound quality the same. So far, the wireless technology has degraded the sound in most cases. Bluetooth headphones use a strict protocol when communicating with each other. It is called "Advanced Audio Distribution Profile" and can be abbreviated with A2DP. The devices must be able to encode and decode the audio files. As a result, mobile phones convert the music twice via SBC by packing and compressing it into MP3s. Then the listeners compress the music again. This often suffers the sound. An unadulterated transmission is given more by A2DP. A prerequisite for communication are receivers and transmitters that have the same prerequisites.By pairing you put the two devices in connection. In most cases, there is a switch directly on the headphones, which you operate accordingly long. If you look at the menu in the smartphone, the headset pops up, which you just have to confirm. After a successful pairing, the devices should automatically connect after Bluetooth is activated.For many headphones you have to expect touch-sensitive surfaces. This will trigger functions such as quieter and louder, faster or activate the handsfree. In the one moment you want to adjust your headphones only, already the music sounds much louder in the auricle. Here it is important to set robustness and user comfort.
Actually, it is easily possible to connect the Bluetooth headset with the PC. To do this, first check the Bluetooth function. This must be activated. For example, if you have a Windows PC, you will find these settings under "Settings" and "Devices". Turns on the Bluetooth connection, already the PC is looking for the right device.
By now pressing a button on the headphones, you make the listener recognizable. Often you will find in the menu bar the sub-item "Add a new device". In most cases, the PC systems themselves start looking for nearby available devices, pairing them only once and connecting them automatically later.
Sound pressure. The sound pressure is measured in decibels and defines the volume of the sound signals. Only if the sound pressure remains below a certain level of the sound pressure limit is the speech and a good sound guaranteed.
Frequency response. Alternatively, the frequency range is mentioned. This refers to the sound spectrum that operates a headphone. With a higher bandwidth of the sound spectrum, higher and lower tones are created. Humans are able to hear between 20 and 20,000 hertz.
Noise canceling. Noise canceling or ANC is used to suppress noise. The manufacturers integrate additional microphones in the headphones, which identify and filter out ambient noise. Especially with open headphones, today's brands are achieving outstanding results. In the closed headphone systems, the path has not gone past the noise suppression.
THD. This is the sound distortion that should be below 0.1 percent. This ensures a very good reproduction of the music. In direct Bluetooth headset comparison, no model should be over one percent.
If you have equipped yourself with some brand new Bluetooth headphones, you may also want to watch TV series, movies and television shows. At the same time, TV sets often cause us problems, as manufacturers often do not use Bluetooth modules. Those who want to avoid these unpleasant incidents, pay attention to the television purchase necessarily on the Bluetooth symbol. After all, modern smart TVs today only differ in detail from the less smart TVs.
Do you just want to connect a Bluetooth headset and not buy a new TV right now? Then you should use Bluetooth transmitter. This accessory is available for virtually every device. Actually, the TV only needs an aux connection, which even the old CRT televisions have. Then you connect the headphones via the transmitter to the TV. These small accessories do not cost much and expand the functionality enormously.
In most cases, many electronic devices can be retrofitted and set to Bluetooth headphones. There are so-called adapters in the specialized trade. Especially handy are the battery-powered Bluetooth adapters that turn a wired headset into a wireless handset. These small roundish adapters bring along the most important controls and of course the connection of the headphones. Especially the keys for the music control are practical. In principle, it is possible to send the data in both directions from the receiver and transmitter. That's what makes an old TV or Walkman a Bluetooth headset.
Is there a Bluetooth headset test at Stiftung Warentest?
There is a current Bluetooth headset test at Stiftung Warentest. This practical test dates back to November 2008 and examines the sportiness and practicability of wireless listeners. For many consumers, it is really tempting to run without cables and enjoy your favorite music. The Stiftung Warentest primarily wanted to find out if the wireless models can compete with the wired headphones. The main focus was on the attenuation of ambient noise and the quality of the sound. The first result was extremely positive. Many of the wireless headphones sound as good as their wired competitors. Buying and choosing one of the wireless headphones is a matter of taste. Most want a balanced and rich bass and brilliant highs. The Stiftung Warentest was unable to establish any really bad results on both sides, which makes the consumer happy.
Now the music varies in its intensity and in the frequencies. So rap and hip-hop are primarily about the rich basses, which are rather discreet in jazz or classical music. So the music style and the taste of music are often a reason to opt for a wireless headphone. It pays to listen to a lot of rehearsal and do a personal headphone test. Alternatively, take a look at the Bluetooth headset test at Stiftung Warentest.
Basically, different shapes can be distinguished in the headphones. For example, we have the earphones with an individual fitting for the auricle. These are called in-ears. Then there are the headphones that can be hooked into the ear cup, the so-called earbuds, and the classic earphone headphones, which have come a long way since the retro movement in recent years. Basically, the headset surrounds the pinna or lies directly on the ear. The new rod-shaped wireless headphones seem to disappear completely from the appearance and create a completely new trend. An optimal sound is not always guaranteed in the full movement but in the quiet sitting. The Stiftung Warentest has given several people a sample to take authentic results from the test.
Not to be neglected is the battery life and the lifetime of the Bluetooth headphones. The leading models have lasted up to 30 hours. If you want to go beyond this point, you also have to spend more on the headphones. Particularly useful is the alternative of cable connection, which bring many headphones without cable in addition, if the battery gives up the spirit and you still want to hear your music. Here it would be useful to connect the headphones via cable directly to the smartphone. Once the battery is empty, no sound comes out of the handset.
Some problems have come up in the connection of the Bluetooth headphones to the television. In some cases, the headphones lag behind the TV sound. This may be due to the fact that with Bluetooth, digital technology first has to process the sound and takes a few milliseconds. Only then does the sound land directly in the ear canal. The high-quality and expensive headphones, in combination with variable noise suppression, want to avoid these delays.
The Stiftung Warentest rates the touch operation via fingertip in a particularly practical way. This allows you to adjust the volume, accept calls or change the playlists and titles. Temporarily the headphones can be switched off, for example, to perceive the sounds in the environment. Active noise cancellation – noise-reduction or noise-canceling – has in many cases led to good ratings. This pays off if you not only play music but also audiobooks and podcasts and do not want to hide the ambient noise via the volume.
What most people underestimate when switching from wired to wireless headphones is a certain know-how and knowledge about the operation. Without manual, it is rarely. Depending on the version, there are touchpads, sliders and buttons that are different to use. About the LEDs you keep track of the battery life and the volume.


Cllr Palmer won after the contest went to second preference votes, seeing off his nearest rival Rod Cantrill (Lib Dem), a Cambridge City councillor. A conservative victory in the area was widely anticipated.
The district leader has previously outlined his priorities for the area to LGC, which include improving infrastructure, giving more responsibilities to districts including social care (and opposing the creation of a county unitary), and building an underground railway system for Cambridge.
Cllr Palmer secured 88,826 votes by the end of the second round, while Cllr Cantrill had 67,026. Labour's candidate Kevin Price, deputy leader of Cambridge City Council, won 37,297 votes.
Cllr Palmer has confirmed that he will stand down as the leader of East Cambridgeshire.
As mayor, Cllr Palmer will oversee the implementation of the region's devolution deal which includes an investment fund worth up to £600m over 30 years and more control over skills and apprenticeship budgets.
One of the unique elements of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough's devolution deal is a £70m pot of funding which has been ringfenced for use to build about 500 new council homes in Cambridge city over five years.
About £10m has been set aside to replace any of the homes which are subsequently sold through the right-to-buy scheme. A further £100m for affordable housing to be built across the region over five years is also included in the deal. The combined authority will be able to mix the type of tenures including affordable rented and low cost home ownership.
Mayor of Cambridgeshire and Peterborough James Palmer (Con) has defended his performance during his first 100 days in office against a scathing attack from local business leaders.
The Conservative manifesto is stuck in reverse on voting and election systems.
Mayor of Cambridgeshire & Peterborough James Palmer (Con) has appointed two deputy mayors and allocated portfolios to his cabinet.
A better than feared turnout at the mayoral elections combined with 'shock' Conservative victories in the Tees Valley and West Midlands have given the devolution agenda a new lease of life.
Kent CC leader and County Councils Network chair Paul Carter has officially launched his bid to become Conservative group leader on the Local Government Association.


Whether your hiring AVEX direct or through one of our partner venues, you will receive the same exemplary service and award winning technical production results every time. Pictured here is an annual marketing conference. AVEX handled all phases of the production including scenic design, talent management, lighting design, audio editing, video editing and all technical production onsite.
Working closely with the internal producer, we designed a budget conscious lighting and video design to wow attendees and keep them engaged throughout the conference. We designed a modular screen surround to give a clean crisp stage look that supported the clients existing brand.
Partner company, Event Lab, designed custom 3D letters and worked with AVEX to place them securely onstage and provide lighting looks throughout the conference.
Back to the basics. Show here is a custom glass Gobo shining on the ground to mark the entrance of the general session room. Attendees always knew what conference they were attending.
Upright truss towers were used to rig lighting for a ceiling effect. Intelligent lighting fixtures were used to project color and shapes onto the ceiling to envelop the attendee in the experience.

USS Fitch (DD-462/DMS-25), a Gleaves-class destroyer, was the only ship of the United States Navy to be named for Commander LeRoy Fitch, an officer during the American Civil War.
Fitch was launched on 14 June 1941 by Boston Navy Yard; sponsored by Mrs. H. W. Thomas, grandniece of Commander Fitch; and commissioned on 3 February 1942, Lieutenant Commander Henry Crommelin in command. She was reclassified DMS-25 on 15 November 1944, and again classified DD-462 on 15 July 1955.
Fitch's first mission, from 1 July to 5 August 1942, was to escort Ranger to a point off the Gold Coast, where the carrier flew off Army planes for the base at Accra. The destroyer returned to Norfolk on 5 August for exercises in preparation for the assault on North Africa, for which she sailed from Bermuda 25 October. Screening Ranger and two escort carriers, Fitch took part in the landings at Fedhala, French Morocco, on 8 November, and guarded the carriers as they flew Army planes off to the captured airfield at Port Lyautey. Returning to Norfolk 24 November, Fitch joined in exercises in Casco and Chesapeake Bays, and performed coastal escort duty, sailing as far south as the Panama Canal Zone, through the remainder of 1942.
On 8 January 1943, Fitch cleared Norfolk with Ranger on the first of two voyages to launch aircraft to North African bases. Operations with Ranger completed, Fitch served on patrol out of NS Argentia, Newfoundland, from 6 April to 12 May, then sailed to Scapa Flow, Orkney Islands, Scotland, to join the British Home Fleet for patrol duty between that base and Iceland. She served on this duty through the summer, protecting northern convoys, then returned to Norfolk on 9 August.
Sailing on 2 September 1943 to escort a convoy to Derry, Northern Ireland, Fitch continued to Thurso Bay, where on 20 September she embarked Secretary of the Navy Frank Knox and Admiral Harold R. Stark for transportation to Scapa Flow. Operating out of Scapa Flow for the next two months, Fitch screened Ranger as her planes attacked German forces and installations near Bodø, Norway, on 4 October, and patrolled off Spitzbergen as the men of the weather station there were relieved and resupplied.
Fitch returned to Boston 3 December 1943 to resume coastal and Caribbean escort duty and to take part in hunter-killer operations in the western Atlantic until 25 April 1944, when she got underway from Norfolk for Belfast, Northern Ireland. In the great buildup for the Normandy invasion, Fitch escorted single ships and convoys between Belfast and Plymouth, England, and took part in training exercises until 6 June, when she sailed from Plymouth for the assault.
Arriving off Utah Beach early in the morning of the invasion, Fitch followed the minesweepers through the newly swept channels to within 2,000 yards of the coast. Her mission was to draw out and silence German batteries prior to the landings. In addition to her effective gunfire, Fitch rescued the survivors of Corry, keeping up her fire at the shore batteries as she did so. After two days screening the transport area, she returned to Plymouth for supplies, then continued to give fire support and to patrol off the beachheads until 19 June. Convoy escort duty around the British Isles was her assignment until 4 July, when she sailed from Belfast for Oran, and exercises in the western Mediterranean.
Fitch sortied from Taranto, Italy, 11 August 1944 for the invasion of Southern France on 15 August, during which she spotted the fire of Texas as well as firing in the prelanding bombardment. Until 25 October, she supported the buildup in southern France by escorting convoys moving between Naples, Palermo, Oran, Gibraltar, and Marseilles. Between her return to Norfolk on 10 November and 3 January 1945, when she sailed for the Pacific, Fitch was converted to a high-speed minesweeper.
Arriving at Pearl Harbor on 10 February 1945, Fitch trained in minesweeping exercises there and at Ulithi, where her propellers were badly damaged when she ran afoul of a coral pinnacle. Repairs were made at Pearl Harbor from 10 April to 6 August, when she sailed to join the 3rd Fleet off Japan. Fitch began sweeping the entrance to Tokyo Bay on 28 August, and was present for the surrender ceremonies on 2 September. She continued to sweep off Japan and in the East China Sea until returning to San Diego on 23 December.
On 9 January 1946, Fitch arrived at Norfolk, where she was immobilized for a month. She voyaged between Norfolk, Charleston, and New York transferring minesweeper crews for several months, and in November, from her home port at Charleston, began regular operations training Mine Force officers, exercising in the Caribbean and along the east coast, and cruising to the Mediterranean in 1949, 1951, and 1953. During 1955, she conducted tests in the Caribbean for the Operational Development Force. Fitch was decommissioned at Charleston 24 February 1956 and placed in reserve.
Fitch received five battle stars for her World War II service.

By Jack Dura / Bismarck Tribune on Feb 6, 2019 at 5:47 p.m.
BISMARCK — The North Dakota House gave its approval on Wednesday, Feb. 6, for some friendly competition: a contest for a new state logo offering $9,500 as first prize.
House Bill 1457 passed 78-14. Rep. Marvin Nelson, D-Rolla, introduced the bill, which would direct the state Department of Commerce to administer a contest for a new design.
Nelson has criticized the recently introduced "Be Legendary" design and how it was developed — with no opportunity for artists or graphic designers to participate.
A Minnesota marketing consultant with ties to Gov. Doug Burgum's Great Plains Software designed "Be Legendary" for $9,500.
The state Tourism Division introduced "Be Legendary" in October, replacing the longtime "North Dakota Legendary" script.
The House Industry, Business and Labor Committee gave a unanimous do-pass to the bill.
On the floor, Rep. George Keiser, R-Bismarck — who chairs the IBL Committee — said he thinks it's "only appropriate" to have a North Dakota-homegrown logo, as "Be Legendary" was made in Minnesota.
Rep. Thomas Beadle, R-Fargo, opposed the bill for putting a contest before design professionals, while other contractors compete in a public bid process for state projects.

The Samsung Galaxy S21: all of the rumors and news as it happens
A fistful of Samsung Galaxy S21 phones is perhaps the ultimate leak
With the Samsung Galaxy S21, it's time for Bixby to put up or shut up
Samsung seems to be close to launching a new Tile-like device for tracking lost items. The tracker, likely called the Galaxy SmartTag, has been leaking out over the past month, and there's some speculation it could be announced alongside the Galaxy S21 later in January.
The Galaxy SmartTag would use Bluetooth to connect with nearby devices and broadcast its location, so owners could find it later if they misplace whatever it's attached to. It'll be powered by a replaceable button cell battery, according to a regulatory filing spotted by GSMArena, so you won't have to throw it out and buy a new one when the battery dies.
Samsung's tracker sounds a lot like a Tile, and it'll apparently look a lot like one, too. Leaks show the SmartTag as a small square with rounded corners and a hole at one edge for slipping a keychain or lanyard through. Photos of the device filed with Taiwan's telecom regulator were publicized by 91mobiles, and they line up with an illustration of the gadget that was leaked from Samsung's SmartThings app.
So far, it's not clear that Samsung is doing anything out of the ordinary here — this seems to be a pretty standard fare item tracker. Samsung released a tracker back in 2018 that connected to cell phone networks for continual tracking. More recently, in October, Samsung launched an app that helps owners of its gadgets locate their existing devices using Bluetooth, which seems like groundwork for the upcoming SmartTag.
Mostly, this seems like more bad news for Tile, since Apple is rumored to have an item tracker in the works, too. That could mean two major new competitors in one year, if both of these devices actually ship.
