They are often referred to as man's best friend considering the way they treat their owners which is quite an exciting experience. The dog's comfort is a priority in most homes and a lot of preparation goes into organising a dog house that can serve as a place for security and comfort for the dog. Get access to creative ideas that you can use for designing your dog house into something secure, exciting and comfortable for the dog to live in.
Building a house for someone whom you love so much, can be one of the toughest task for you to do but at the same time, most interesting too. And when it is your loveable dog that is going to reside in it, you will love to put your best efforts in it. Building a dog house is not as simple as erecting 4 walls and a roof. You need to make a plan of action before constructing a large dog house for outside or a small dog house for inside.
There are various points that you can consider when building a nice dog house:
- Would a removable roof allow easy cleaning?
- Where to place the door of the doghouse?
- How can the door be used to keep the dog warm in winters and cool in summers?
- What material should be used to make the dog house?
- What should be the dimensions of the doghouse?
- In which direction should the dog house face?
- How to protect the dog house from cold or hot weather?
- What is better, fabric or straws to be used in constructing a warm dog house?
Dogs can be classified in two- outside and inside dogs. An inside dog house need to be cute and snazzy, so that it goes well with the interiors of your house. One thing that you should keep in mind is that dogs are den animals, i.e. they love to stay in a place that appears to be a den. This is the reason that dogs always find a spot like under the desk, close to a wall etc. where they can feel closeness and safety. Dogs always like a place like a crate, whom they can call as their own, a place where they can eat or sleep with peace. After all, they too need their privacy, right!
Every dog responds differently to different climatic conditions. Some dogs, can handle the cold weather, like Northern breeds while small dogs with little hair cannot handle extreme cold or hot weather. So, they should not be made to stay outside during extreme weather conditions.
The area of the dog house should be large enough so that the dog can feel comfortable to stand, turn around and lay down. But the dog house should not be so large that the dog does not feel secured with the closeness of the four walls. Even in the winters, a dog can warm up the house with his own body heat. One can also fix up the insulation inside the dog house, and believe me that it is not as difficult as it seems to be. This insulation can help to keep your dog warm in the winter and cool in the summer.
Even the door of the dog house is an important part to be paid attention towards. Although some people consider door just as an accessory and put it only in winters, but it is advised to have a door always. This is because a dog can get used to a house with no door which can create problem during winters.
Use of fabric blankets or dog beds is not recommended inside a dog house because in case they get wet, when the dog tracks in snow, there is a possibility that they can freeze. That is why using straw as a bedding is the best option because if some water will even come with the dog in the dog house, it will seep down to the bottom and away from your dog.
The idea of removable roof is also very nice because it allows easy cleaning, removal or addition of new straw and treatment for ticks and flies.
Although tough but this challenge of making a dog house can get very interesting if you make it a family affair and involve your kids also which can result in a great bonding experience.
Dog houses are a lot more like human houses and should be given the appropriate attention in regards to the type of materials to be used and fittings to be done. Just like in the dog house design below, use of wood in designing dog house is beneficial as it helps in insulating the dog from heat and cold. Wood is also a perfect material to work with especially if your doing the building by yourself.
Wood is known to be sturdy and very heavy making them suitable for long-term use. The dog house below has sufficient space for the dogs to move around and even get to have a feel of what's happening outside even as they stay in their houses.
Designing a dog house that looks like a real house can be quite beautiful and an ideal expression of love for your dog. The roof of the dog house should be constructed in a slanted way to allow for flow of water. The door of the house is large enough enabling the dog to move comfortably as it continues to grow and the verandah provides the dog with a place to relax and have some fresh breath away from its house.
When designing a dog house factors like size of the dog and location of the dog house should be considered. It's good to consider the right dimensions of a house that best suits the dog size while providing a space where the dog can relax in. The whether of the environment should be considered as it helps in deciding on the right materials to use.
The distance of the below dog house with the main house is quite appropriate and this is because a wooden do house tends to retain the smell of dogs which can be inconveniencing if placed near the main house.
The dog house below is quite beautiful and comfortable for the dogs. Proper hygiene should be frequently carried out to ensure the dog house is clean and the fur and any dirt does not spread to other parts of the house. Dogs love to stay in places that are insulated and dry and the below dog house design is ideal for indoor dog house.
Before designing a dog's house its very important to consider the dog's breed whether its the type that should be kept outside or inside. The large heavy-coated breeds should be kept outside as they can endure the cold climates while the small short haired dogs and puppies should be kept inside the house.
Dogs are known to like intimate and den-like spaces where the dog can be comfortable just like the dog house design below. The dog house is well designed as it provides sufficient space for the dog to move around without hitting its head and the room is well insulated making it warm and comfortable.
Provision of proper bedding is important for the dog house providing the dog with the required warm and comfort. The beddings should be cleaned frequently especially if the dog resides within the house to help in eliminating any smell or bad odour that can emanate from the beddings.
The below dog house design looks quite well designed as its insulated from any cold weather with enough space for the dogs to move around. The beddings are also comfortable and ideal for the dogs.
The location of the dogs house is a very important factor to be considered when designing a dog's house. The door should be located in a way such that it doesn't face the direction in which wind is coming from. The water drainage should also be considered to avoid any flooding of the house when it rains.
Just like the below dog house design, the dog house should be elevated a few inches off the ground to help keep the entire structure out of puddles. The dog house design is well raised above the ground and the material used are quite beautiful and ideal providing the warmth and insulation required by the dogs.
Dog houses should be kept as much dry as possible this is because when the house gets damp it becomes humid and when the humidity rises bacteria finds a perfect atmosphere to develop and can easily become airborne if extensive care is not initiated to keep the dog house dry.
Dogs find it comfortable to live and even sleep in a dry and comfortable house like the one below, the dog is well taken care of with warm beddings and a raised house that make it feel much better.
Having a dog house in an open backyard space or inside the house is still suitable as long as you can maintain the general cleanliness of the dog house. Apart from the house where the dog sleeps dogs also require places set for them to relax during the day .
The dog house below does not only provide the dog with a place to sleep but soft mats have been provided where the dogs can relax.
Dogs love company and when designing a dog house it's good to consider putting the dog house in a location that's not very far from the house. Putting the house very far is likely to make the dog feel lonely and unwanted and might decide to express the feelings in a negative way.
Sleeping with dogs in the same bedroom is not a healthy habit and should not be encouraged. The dog's house can be located in a different place within the house for the in-house dogs.
Designing a dog house with sufficient space for cleaning the dogs is far much ideal for the dogs. Dog house should be well designed to cater for the various dog needs, a place where they get fed and cleaned is worth considering when designing dog house. The dog cleaning area below looks quite cool and well equipped.
A slanted roof is suitable for a dog house as it prevents snow from piling on top of the roof and allows rain water to drain easily. Its also good to clearly understand your dog and the habits that appeals to it even as you design the dog house. A place that's shady is also ideal for designing the dog house as the dog can enjoy some shielding from the hot sun during harsh weather just like the dog house design below.
By learning the habits of your dog, you will be able to design a house that suits the dog well. Some dogs enjoy climbing on the roofs of their houses and designing a dog house and providing provision for the dog to clinb the roof can be comfortable for the dog.
The dog house design below is well built giving the dogs enough space to relax and move around, the doors are also big enough that even two dogs can comfortably walk in and out.
Dogs enjoy moments of fun by jumping and running around even playing with each other. Designing a dog house with some elements of complexity and like the stairs is normally exciting for the dogs. The dog house design below is creatively done and looks secure for the dog.
The dog house fits well in the available space and type of materials provide the necessary warmth to the dog. In some instances you can spend alot on designing the dog house only for the dog to reject the house or fail to show interest in staying in the house. Dogs needs to be trained when they are still young on staying in their houses so that they get to adapt at an early age.
Backyards provide a perfect location for dog houses and use of decorative ideas that makes the entire design to look fabulous is quite ideal. The dog house design below looks quite comfortable with the soft beddings for the dog providing comfort and warmth. The dog also has sufficient space to move around and relax.
Some dog houses are fully customized like the dog house design below that comes with warm colours and floor materials made to fit a dog's need. The dog house come with eating area and is spacious enough for the dog to move around comfortably.
The dog house design below is quite suitable for use during the summer season as the roof design allows for sufficient flow of air. The dog house is perfectly designed as its raised from the ground allowing for water to flow freely without getting to the dog house in case there's overflow of rain water.
The dog house has sufficient room for the dog to move around freely and for the dogs that enjoy relaxing on the roof, the space above the dog house is ideal.
There are no specific steps that one can follow when designing a dog house what's important is taking the right measurements that gives the dog an elaborate space to move around in. The weight and height of the dogs should also to be taken to provide the right space that the dog can comfortably use without struggle.
Creativity can be applied in designing the dog house depending on ones interest just like in the dog house design below.
A dog might not care much about how their house looks like, what really bothers them is how cofortable the house is. However for the dog owner its more rewarding to your dog if your design for its house is a nice looking dog house that's warm and comfortable. The dog house design below looks great and spacious for the dog providing it with enough room to move around and relax.
The location of the dog house is also suitable as the dog is proteced from the warm and hot whether since the house is well insulated.

Pasta Salad with pepperoni is easy to make and super delicious!
This pasta salad with pepperoni has been a family favorite for years. At most large gatherings and holidays this side dish always shows up and for good reason. It has so many delicious ingredients and is hard to stop eating!
Pasta Salad with Pepperoni
Even though my side of the family has enjoyed this easy pasta salad for many years I got to introduce my husband to it while we were dating. It soon became a commonly requested dish and he looks forward to eating it every time.
It packs easy for lunches and can be pretty filling!
All the flavors from the veggies come together so well and who doesn't love cheese and pepperoni! Add that all to pasta and you have yourself an amazing side dish that takes only about 15 minutes to make.
What goes with pasta salad?
If you are making pasta salad as a side dish I recommend serving it along side burgers or some smoked chicken. Even with my tasty chicken sandwich and a refreshing watermelon slushy this would be perfect!
How to make pasta salad with pepperoni:
- Cook the pasta according to the box
- Mix together the marinade from the artichokes with water and the seasoning
- Combine the pasta with all the veggies, pepperoni and cheese
- Pour the marinade over the pasta and mix well
It's that simple! I think the combination of all the different flavors plus how pretty it is makes it a perfect dish for anytime!
Do you rinse pasta for cold pasta salad?
Yes. After you cook the pasta rinse it under cold water and drain.
Easy pasta salad is great for BBQs or parties!
This classic pasta salad is my favorite!
Do you have a favorite pasta dish or a side dish that is at every get together? I'd love to hear about it! Let me know in a comment below!
Easy Pasta Salad Recipe
This easy pasta salad is quick and delicious! It's great for dinner with the family or a party!
- 1 box suddenly salad pasta classic with seasoning packet
- 3 tbs water
- ½- whole bell pepper chopped
- 1 jar marinated artichoke hearts* 7.5 oz
- 1 can large black olives 6 oz
- 1 package pepperoni* you will only need ~2oz
- 1 cup pepper jack cheese cubed
- ¼ red onion chopped
- Cook the pasta according to package instructions. Rinse with cold water when done, drain and set aside.
- While pasta is cooking mix together 3 tbs cold water, 2 tbs of marinade from the artichokes and the seasoning packet from the box.
- Chop bell pepper, artichoke hearts, onion and pepperoni to desired sizes. Cube cheese (I like to make the cheese ¼- ½ inch squares). Drain olives.
- In a medium sized bowl combine cooked and drained pasta, all veggies, cheese and pepperoni. Pour marinade mixture over and mix thoroughly.
- Enjoy!
Recipe Notes
*Make sure to reserve 2 tbs of the marinade for the dressing for this pasta. If you happen to accidently get rid of it simply use vegetable or olive oil instead.
* When I can find it, I like to buy a stick of pepperoni and cut it into wedges to add to this salad. However, sliced pepperoni works great too! You just won't need the whole package.

Gotham Steel Pans are the newest non-stick cookware which claims to combines non-stick ceramic with super strong titanium. The brand is endorsed by celebrity chef Daniel Green who has also advertised these pans to testify the claim about food sliding right off the pan without using any butter or oil. Well, it's everywhere and like me, I know you also wanted to check out this much-awaited pan and see if it's for real. So, here we have my Gotham Steel Pan review to help you decide your new kitchen mate.
Gotham Steel Pan Reviews (and why I don't recommend them)
After having bought and used the Gotham Steel Pans for over 3 months, I can say everything sticks to these pans, ALL THE TIME.
In the first week they were awesome, and then of course like clockwork they decided to be non-stick. From fried eggs, pancake, bacon to fajita makings. There is no non-stick quality what-so-ever. Gotham Steel Pans are made in China, which explains the poor quality. Nothing slides off the pan, even the food remains that stick to the pan will require you to soak it in water so you can clean it with ease. Dishwasher makes them worse, and they stick even more.
If you still must decide to try your luck with these pans, get the Titanium ones, they are half decent. But if you really want something non-stick, then you should just stay away from the likes of Gotham Steel Pans and Copper Chef Pans. With so many options available, I'd personally recommend you buy the Analon Advanced Pans (#1 Recommendation) rather than the Gotham Steel Pans.
[amazon box="B001B1CJME,B000069RBR" grid="2″]
Detailed Gotham Steel Pan Reviews (Reasons NOT to BUY)
Gotham Steel Pans boast about its non-stick
1. Not-All-All-Non-Stick
The Gotham Steel pan set is claimed to be made of Ceramic and Titanium which makes it non-stick. But in my personal experience and in the experience of over 154+ Amazon Customers, they have no such quality at all. If anything they are easily the most sticky pans I've ever used.
2. Safety
They are made in China, are super thin and difficult to hold. Need I say more? If you are thinking of cooking on these, grab some oven mitts. As for the dishwasher safe claim, they lose their non-stick quality ever faster if you try to give the dishwasher a try.
- Easy to throw
- Food sticks
- Poor Quality Handles and Lid
- Scratch Magnet
- Cleaning is a task
In all honesty, Gotham Steel Pans are without any doubt the worst pans claiming to be non-stick.
If you actually want something durable and long lasting, that doesn't make you a victim of sticky residues, I recommend the Analon Advanced Hard-Anodized Nonstick Pans (<–First Preference) or Calphalon Hard-Anodized Aluminum Nonstick Pans.
Buyer's Guide to find the Best Non-Stick Pans
Before you head on to buy non-stick pans, you must have a few details in mind. We here have a curated buyer's guide for you to refer to whenever you're shopping.
- Size: You should always be careful with the size of the pan you're buying because non-stick pans
comesin various sizes and even depths. Your choice should address your need. If you have a family and cook food for a lot of people at once, then a larger pan would be great. This factor is also dependent on the kind of stovetop you own. If your stovetop is smaller in size, then small-sized pans would work better for you. As for Gotham Steel Pans, I'd recommend you to buy a size bigger at all times, because they are very small. (that is if you still have decided to buy them).
- Non-Stick: What good is a pan if it's not non-stick? Well, look for pans that have non-stick abilities and can easily be able to cook a variety of dishes. The Ti-Cerama technology in Gotham Steel pans claimed to cater to the non-stick needs and even durability, but nothing
suchever came to the rescue of the consumers. Even Red Copper pans have ceramic in their construction but the absence of titanium makes them a lessefficient cookware. You can read the comparison of Red Copper pans and Gotham Steel pans here.
- Handle: These little parts of a good pan are majorly important too because they dictate where your pan actually goes. As funny as it may sound but it's still something that needs taking care of. You should buy a Non-stick pan that has riveted and thick handles so that they don't loosen up quickly and help you carry the utensil effortlessly. As for the Gotham Steel
Pan handles, well buy yourself a pair of oven mitts.
- Safe: These days all cookware comes with a "PFOA/PFTE Free" label which is mandatory to be considered. With all these years of Teflon intake, it's time that you regained your health consciousness. When choosing a non-stick pan, don't forget to consider the PFOA and PFTE free factor. Even the Copper Chef pan I used last year didn't have Teflon in its construction. Read more about the similarities and differences between Copper Chef pans and Gotham Steel pans.
- Budget: Lastly, you cannot afford to forget your budget. Look for a pan that fits your pocket and fulfils your requirements. However, the above factors precede this one and it's important that whatever you buy is worth the value. My Gotham Steel Pan reviews have not covered the same, because they never came through on their USP (yes, the non-stick part).
Prerequisites for using your Non-Stick Pan
A little know-how before using your pans is really important and it's better to be informed. There are some handy prerequisites of using non-stick pans which might help you a lot in the long run. Here you go:
- Cleaning and Maintenance
- One of the most important things that should be kept in mind while cleaning your pans in a dishwasher is that you place them in the first rack. Although they are scratch proof
butwhen it comes to cleaning, they need extra care.
- Seasoning your non-stick pans is also a mandatory job that should be done twice a year. Even after the non-stick hype, pans need seasoning and therefore, you should read this how-to-season post to get a better idea.
2. Dos and Don'ts
- You should never heat an empty non-stick pan. This tends to damage its non-stick surface and half the charm of your pan is already gone. You can read this study for more information about aluminum cookware and how it affects our cookware.
- You should also not chop any vegetables or food in your pan. Although, we've mentioned that these pans are considered scratch free, the non-stick surface is still a little flimsy.
- It is imperative that you don't use any abrasives to clean your pan. This might also cause
a littleharm to the non-stick surface because they have a ceramic surface.
3. Storage
- While cooking, you can try out new recipes in your pan like pancakes and s'mores dip which get quite easy to cook in the Gotham Steel pans.
- You can use your pans on the stovetop but make sure you don't overheat them because that might cause them to lose their durability.
I hope my Gotham Steel Pan Review was of use to you, and that you have made the smart decision of getting something actually non-stick unlike the Gotham Steel Pans.

At 360g the Access LT sits towards the lighter end of things, and is aimed more at active mountain use than keeping you warm when you're stationary and settled down. That comes via a trilogy of fabrics: stretch Schoeller softshell panels along the underarm and down the sides of the body, Pertex Quantum on the rest to keep off the wind and light moisture, and weatherproof Primaloft Gold within to trap heat. The overall design is fantastic, with a sleek but unrestrictive fit, effective hem adjusters in the two hand pockets, two inner storage pouches and a truly superb, well fitted and two-way adjustable helmet-compatible hood. I found it to function exactly as claimed: impressively breathable, effortlessly comfortable and well-suited as a rugged outer or accommodating mid-layer for cooler aerobic pursuits from hillwalking to cycling to scrambling and climbing. It would only make a suitable belay jacket for warmer climates, but when used as part of a sensible layering system this is as versatile as insulation gets. Very highly recommended.

Meeting of the best
Coming from the intersection of Napa and Sonoma, this was a very good wine paired with salty meats and cheeses. I really liked this wine.
Inky, full-bodied, peppery. Bought quite a few bottles after I tasted the first, and opened another tonight, which we enjoyed with a greek pizza. Perfect!
One of the Best
Deep magenta with crimson streaks. Cedar, violets, and blueberry nose. Medium to full bodied, blackberries, pepper, mushrooms, woody tannins, dark chocolate, some heat, tobacco, good acid, and a long finish. Great mouthfeel and very tasty.
CHWine Lover
Good Every Day Drinker
Well, once again glad I laid this one down. Drinking well and balanced. Simply delicious!
Oh no, it's gone. This was my favorite syrah of the year.
Outstanding Syrah; rich fruit with deep but well integrated tannins
We loved this and bought a case after trying about 10 different bottles from CH. This is almost inky with rich fruit, spice, and deep, well integrated tannins that give it tremendous character. Let it sit for a couple weeks before drinking, and a little air helps, too, but this is a best value. Now that the case is almost gone, I'm hooked on Syrahs.
Ed R
Nothing special
Fruit on the nose and taste but not a lot of nose.Some cherries on the finish--can be drunk now but I am going to wait until 2018 to drink the last bottle
Wonderful Syrah
This syrah is a great find. A blast of blackberry fruit, with some pepper. Paired with steak so well. Drink slowly and enjoy the flavors!
K Syrah Syrah
Agree with others who say it needs to breath . . . warm up a little, but when it does - look out. Also sad it is sold out, but glad I grabbed a few bottles before it was - great value! Pairing very will with some 90% coca supreme dark chocolate!
Spicy red syrup
Nice full body syrah

Uuni Wood Burning Pizza Oven
Sold Out
Let's be honest. The first time I saw this oven at Milk Street and the price I was, to say the least, skeptical. But when our product tester tried it out at home, she came back with a rave review. (And she wanted to keep it too!) Heated with wood pellets, it reaches over 900 degrees in just 10 minutes and can cook a pizza in just 60 seconds, about as long as it takes at Michael's in Naples. (I know since I actually timed it during a visit there a few years ago.) Made from stainless steel, it sits on three sturdy legs and is easy to set up and move around. It can take a stone baking board that is roughly 13 inches square which is plenty for homemade pizza. You can also use it to cook flatbreads, meat, vegetables or anything you want to cook quickly using high heat. This contraption may look crazy, but we loved it!
What's in the box:
- Uuni 3 wood-fired oven.
- Wood Pellet Burner.
- Cordierite stone baking board.
- Pizza peel.
- Manual and safety instructions.

Ali and Robin Campbell, sons of the noted Scottish folk musician Ian Campbell were always likely to pursue an artistic path. The two lads formed UB40 with a variety of seasoned players and novices. Amongst shared passion, the Campbell's, Astro, Brian Travers, James Brown, Earl Falconer, Norman Hassan and Mickey Vertue were a love for Jamaican bluebeat, ska, soul and classic, even easy-listening pop. There was nothing snobbish about them but they were determined and serious about embarking on a career as a band, rehearsing for months in an old school manner before playing their first gigs around Kings Heath and then making their first album, Signing Off.
The follow-up, Present Arms, and third album UB44 provided the band with the basis for a stunning live set, mixing militant protest material with heavily reverbed beats like 'I Won't Close My Eyes' and 'Don't Do The Crime'.
By 1983 UB40 were ready for a switch in direction and did just that on Labour of Love where they paid homage to their reggae roots on their first covers album (three more would emerge), tackling tracks culled from The Slickers ('Johnny Too Bad'), Eric Donaldson ('Cherry Oh Baby') and their signature song 'Red Red Wine', though they patterned their version after the JA interpretation by Tony Tribe, rather than Neil Diamond's original.
Rat In The Kitchen features Herb Alpert playing Tijuana trumpet on the title track and also finds space for respected British vocal guests Jaki Graham and Ruby Turner. A thoroughly mature piece of work this, as is the self-titled UB40 disc from 1988. Here you'll find the marvellous 'Breakfast In Bed', another Ali and Chrissie duet that nods affectionately towards earlier reggae versions of the Muscle Shoals tune by Lorna Bennett and Sheila Hylton. The intriguing Geffery Morgan was all self-penned and features the smash 'If It Happens Again', still one of Ali Campbell's most charged numbers, albeit cloaked as a love song.
Baggariddim (1985) showcased a different facet of the band as they invited guest artists to sing or 'toast' to reworked favourites. Amongst the participants are Pato Banton, Dillinger, Sister V and Ali's significant other back then Chrissie Hynde who memorably duets with the old man on 'I Got You, Babe'. That single reached number one, as did its B-side 'Don't Break My Heart' once Campbell had added vocals.
The second Labour of Love ll found UB40 fully established in America. The consummate retreads were all in place again, notably in a sparkling version of 'Here I Am (Come and Take Me)', by Al Green originally, though modelled hereafter Irving 'Al' Brown. Touches of calypso lend further colour to the lilting 'Kingston Town' while 'Homely Girl' is a reggae-soul hybrid that's impossible to resists.
By the mid-1990s, UB40 could do virtually whatever they pleased, such was their status. They could sing about Guns in the Ghetto and give the lyric first hand urban relevance but they could just as easily open up their virtual jukebox and revive Elvis Presley or The Paragons, band hero Ken Boothe and radical reggae rebels like Bob Marley and Peter Tosh.
Following a hiatus Cover Up and Homegrown saw UB40 in more mellow mood, and few do that better, but Who You Fighting For? Is a no-holds barred social document up there with the early releases.
TwentyFourSeven marks the final album featuring Ali Campbell and Mickey Virtue but wouldn't you know it, there was another bro' waiting in the wings – one Duncan Campbell who remains upfront for the UBees to this day.
More recent albums are TwentyFourSeven, the soul and reggae set Labour Of Love IV and the country covers of Getting Over The Storm, the latter being the last to feature trumpet player and vocalist Astro. There are also a slew of comps to consider: Love Songs and Red Red Wine: The Essential UB40 are recommended; three live Racecourse shows have been announced for 2017.
UB40's legacy, massive sales aside, has been to hasten the breakdown of musical and cultural barriers. British reggae doesn't always get the best press or the recognition it deserves but UB40 have highlighted the fact that it has long been a vital and thriving part of our musical culture. No doubt the band are delighted to have been nominated four times for the Grammy Award (Reggae category) but chances are they're even more chuffed at the fact they headlined the Reggae Sunsplash in Jamaica, an ultimate achievement that sits nicely next to their work as musical ambassadors, spreading the word to Russian and South American audiences, amongst others.
You could say they are a band with benefits.

Periodically I search the world-wide-web checking-out price differences between the Basic vs. Deluxe models of the Stearns Puddle Jumper. The Stearns Puddle Jumper is a U.S. Coast Guard Approved, Type III PFD for kids, 30-50 lbs. A PFD is a personal flotation device. Generally speaking, retailers sell the two Puddle Jumper models at a $5 price-point difference. While the retail price fluctuates, especially in geographical locations where extreme seasons are experienced… spring, summer, winter, fall… still the difference in price is usually and approximately $5.
The Price Difference
Is the $5 difference in price the correct "determining-factor" when deciding which Puddle Jumper to buy? I think not. Not when you consider that a "better" life jacket has a greater probability of saving a life. What is a life worth? A life is priceless, right? Perhaps, however, I have rushed into an opinion. When I force myself to remember the many people who are standing in front of tough economic times, $5 becomes a relative amount of money. Young couples with young children, young people new to a career and therefore occupying entry-level positions, have limited resources. Then there are the people who are still in school, still preparing for their intended career who also have limited resources. In front of tough economic times $5 is most definitely a relative thing. Depending on life-circumstances a $5 meal can be as life-saving as a child's life-jacket!
Other Considerations: Design & Fabric
If, however, a $5 price difference is not the driving determinant there are other differences that should be highlighted and considered.
First, note the similarities between the two models:
Similarities: Basic vs Deluxe Models
- Both made with bright-colored fabrics.
- Both made with animal designs applied and/or woven into the fabric.
- Both constructed with polyethylene foam.
- Both made for children 30-50 lbs (13.6 kg – 22.7 kg).
- Both provide a vest that fits comfortably over a child's chest and arm pieces thus providing stability to the child while in water.
- Both are Coast Guard approved Type III performance.
Second, note the two major differences between the models: Design and Fabric:
The Design
- Basic Model is made with simple animal designs.
- Deluxe Model is made with more detailed animal designs.
Regarding the design, if your child becomes attached to a particular animal character he or she will want to "be with it" and will therefore want to wear the Puddle Jumper. The child who wants to wear a "flotation aid" because it is a friend versus the child who merely submits to an imposed rule: "a life vest must be worn" is a state-of-affairs that too frequently leads to life versus death, or vice-versa. Any flotation device, including the Puddle Jumper, can only save a life when it is worn. If your child is attracted to an animal character, then by all means buy the Puddle Jumper with the design your child is attracted to. With the "animal character" strapped across his or her chest your child is safer in the water, and, better able to adjust when stressful unexpected situations occur while in a pool, lake or at the beach.
The Fabric
- Basic Model, Nylon Fabric
- Deluxe Model, Woven Polyester
The type of fabric used to construct the Puddle Jumper is another difference to consider between the two models. Both nylon and polyester are lightweight and durable fabrics. Both are synthetic fabrics. Neither is a better fabric. They even share many of the same properties.
- Easy Care
- Lightweight
- Wrinkle Resistant
- Stretch Resistant
- Shrink Resistant
- Stronger
- Softer (historically)
- Faster Drying
- Easier to Dye
- Abrasion Resistant
Historically nylon was considered the smoother softer fabric, as compared to polyester. Over time, however, refined manufacturing capabilities have resulted in a softer polyester fabric that in many ways matches nylon. This is true enough that Stearns is now able to make the claim that the Deluxe Puddle Jumper has the "softer" feel, and therefore causes less chafing against your child's skin.
Polyester dries faster. This is due to its' water-wicking ability. Polyester is hydrophobic, which means it expels water to the surface of the fabric's fibers where the water then evaporates. Nylon, on the other hand, absorbs water and therefore dries slower. The hydrophobic property of polyester goes to the feel of the fabric when strapped around your child's chest and arms. Your child will not feel wet and chilled. As kids become accustomed to the Puddle Jumper they become almost oblivious to the fact that they are wearing a flotation aid. As this set of circumstances evolves the likelihood increases that your child will be wearing his or her Puddle Jumper at the most important time: while in the water, at the life-saving moment when it is needed.
Also compare the color-fastness of the two fabrics. Bright colored fabric is a key feature of the Puddle Jumper. It attracts and delights kids. The bright colors are also a safety feature; the bright colors help you, parent or guardian, to easily see your little one as they frolic about in the water. Therefore, a comparison of polyester and nylon in light of their colorfast properties is important. Polyester absorbs more color (more dye). This, again, is because of polyester's water-wicking property. Since the polyester expels water when in the dye solution more dye bonds to the polyester fibers.
Conclusion: Which Puddle Jumper Model Is Best?
So what is the bottom-line? Which Stearns Puddle Jumper is the "best?" The answer begins with a quote from the U.S. Coast Guard. They say, "The perfect life-preserver, life-jacket, or PFD (personal flotation device) has not yet been designed." Given these state-of-affairs respecting life-jackets, even so the Coast Guard is still willing to point to characteristics of a life-jacket that make it "the best":
- It's the one you're willing to wear!
- It's the one that saves your life every time it's needed.
- It's the one that matches your needs!
Given all of the above information, and knowing that the Stearns Puddle Jumper is Coast Guard approved only for kids, and only if they weigh between 30 and 50 lbs (not for adults users, nor for infants) the prospective list of Puddle Jumper users is narrowed, irrespective of design or model.
For this narrowed list of users, children 30-50 lbs… our most vulnerable swimmers… the answer as to which model is "best" is simple.
IF the extra $5 doesn't break the piggy bank and deprive your family of its' next meal, and, IF the detailed animal design on the chest-band of the Puddle Jumper attracts your child's attention and affection, then spend the extra $5. Buy the Deluxe Puddle Jumper. And, since polyester fabric is softer and more water-resistant and therefore more comfortable, increasing the likelihood that your child will wear the Puddle Jumper, then again the answer is simple, buy the Deluxe model.[ad_2]

Wrinkle Treatment
Wrinkles appear due to the decrease of the collagen tissue synthesis in the middle skin layer (dermis) with the advancing age as a result of general drop in skin quality. Weakened skin structure and facial muscle movements increase the formation of wrinkles. Unfortunately, there is no escape from aging. Lines and wrinkles unnoticeable in childhood and youth start catching the eye and getting on our nerves after some certain age. But we should stress that not only aging is responsible for wrinkle formation. Some people start having wrinkles in their twenties while others have enviably smooth and firm skin even around the eyes in their thirties.
Skin is not only the biggest organ of the body but also one of the most important elements of our successful social life as it affects the first impression about us to people around. Dermato-cosmetology being one of the Skin Diseases Specialization branches is aimed at providing a healthier and more beautiful appearance of the skin.
Scientific researches line out 3 factors responsible for wrinkle formation:
Genetic: Genetic disposition is the main factor to determine when your wrinkles appear and how deep and keen they will be. If your mother had her wrinkles late you can be considered lucky.
Environmental factors: Sun rays, dry climate, smoking, alcohol and many other environmental factors determine the aging process and the wrinkle formation of your skin.
Care: Regular application of the right skin-care products not only provides smoothness and firmness of your skin but also delays wrinkle formation.
The aim of D-K Clinic is to help those who want to have healthier skin achieve the desired effect with no harm or damage by using scientifically developed applications. We continually follow the modern technology developments especially choosing the latest system devices with the highest possible level of reliability. In our clinic we perform all necessary examinations and after having detected the problem of a patient we recommend them the most suitable methods of treatment taking into account their financial circumstances.

Jesse Adams has been the Digital Services Coordinator of the Corvallis-Benton County Public Library for three years, and in that time he has brought some serious fun. That fun includes 3D printing, robots, and even a VR headset.
"Our Makers Club meets twice a month and we bring out a set of science, technology, engineering, and math activities. It's an all-ages crowd, tweens and teens," Adams explained, "We do 3D printing. Participants can get a basic view of Computer Aided Drafting. We build circuits, robots, [and have] laptops for coding."
At the Makers Club, kids get to create, which gets them engaged. "We're in the anything goes sort of making." That includes a craft component as well. "Our crafting could be a light up bracelet to binary beads. It's really great to have such an accessible craft that kids can start up and make something, so they have something they can walk away with."
One of their most popular activities is their Sony Vive VR headset. Right now kids can experience the technology through games, but the goal is to "get kids to start thinking what they could do with this technology," Adams explained.
The activities are drop-in, so no need to sign up in advance. The Makers Club has one last meeting on May 22 from 5:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. before they break for the summer, then return in the fall.
The library has something for adults too—their Adult Digital Literacy class, "Understanding and Participating in the Web." The class runs through the end of June, and anyone is welcome to attend—no prior experience is needed.
The course covers a variety of topics to help those who aren't the most tech savvy become more comfortable using the World Wide Web. The next session is Thursday, May 24 from 6 p.m. to 7:30 p.m. at the Main Meeting Room in the library.
Feeling like enjoying the return of nice weather? Saturday June 9 is the 5K Bookin' It Fun Run through Avery Park and along the riverfront. There is also a 1 mile family fun run for your wee ones. Registration is free, just head over to cbcpubliclibrary.net to register, or to find out more about any of the programs mentioned above.

• Chairman's Announcements (00:25)
There were no announcements.
• Citizen's Forum (00:27)
No one came forward.
1. Meeting with Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR): Commissioner Leo Roy, Senator Ryan Fattman, Representative Joseph McKenna (00:34)
Comm. Roy, Sen. Fattman and Rep. McKenna joined the meeting. Mr. Morse stated that he is discouraged by the length of time it takes for DCR to respond to Douglas. Comm. Roy stated that Mr. Wojcik now has his cell phone number and urged him to contact him. He stated that Ms. Stowe, as Regional Director, can be Douglas' initial point of contact.
Wallum Lake State Park & Douglas State Forest Management Update (52:00) - Mr. Morse stated that the BOS would like to have the tree at the reservoir with the rope swing removed. Mr. VanderDecker replied that they were hoping the ice would be thick enough over the winter to drive a tractor on it so that the tree could be pulled out, however the weather did not allow for that. He is afraid that if he cuts the dead trees down now, he would not be able to get them back to shore.
In the meantime, Mr. Morse asked that there be more patrols in the area to dissuade people from using the swing. Ms. Stowe will speak to the District Ranger. Comm. Roy asked Mr. VanderDecker to plan to cut the trees and asked Ms. Stowe to increase the patrols.
Douglas State Forest Maintenance Trust Fund (06:08) - Comm. Roy said that he submitted Douglas' request for payment to Accounting, and it got lost. He has now established a connection for reimbursement between Mr. Wojcik and Jason Silva in the Accounting Dept.
The current balance in the trust is $41,376.83. Sen. Fattman has filed an amendment to the Senate Budget to increase the out-of-state fee by $5 statewide.
Ridge Trail Maintenance (11:46) - Comm. Roy had not heard of the issue until Douglas raised concerns. Comm. Roy has visited the site and, compared to many other DCR managed roads, this one is in "pretty good shape." Mr. Wojcik stated that the Town has been to the Ridge Trail at least four times since the snow has melted and has graded it, otherwise it would be impassable for emergency vehicles.
Comm. Roy stated that, from a park perspective, a serious motivation to improve the road does not exist. Mr. Wojcik is concerned, since the road does not belong to Douglas, who would be liable if there is a fuel spill or an injury. He has asked DCR in the past for a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) for Douglas to be able to do the work to keep the trail open. Comm. Roy stated that DCR entering into an MOU with Douglas for ongoing maintenance is "absolutely something we could do."
Mr. Wojcik's ideal situation is to have DCR pave the road and Douglas would maintain it from then on. A discussion was held.
Tree Health & Forest Fire Mitigation Plan (20:21) – Comm. Roy outlined how the drought and gypsy moth infestation over the past two years has been difficult for the forests. He stated that the fire risk has been low this spring. Every June they do a defoliation and mortality forest flyover. Generally speaking, the health of the forest is good. It is largely a no-touch forest.
Mr. Wojcik stated that parts of the forest come up against residential areas, and he feels there should be a fire plan in place for those areas. Chief Vinson joined the meeting and stated his opinion that the forest floor needs to be monitored closely. Comm. Roy suggested that the Bureau of Forest Fire Control drill with Douglas Fire Dept. Comm. Roy talked about the Firewise program that works with homeowners to help them evaluate their fire risk.
DCR Land Purchase (33:32) – Comm. Roy spoke about DCR's land acquisition program and the letter received from the BOS.
Comm. Roy stated that there had been some conversations between the DCR Land Acquisition staff and Douglas' Tax Collector regarding the 13-acre parcel that DCR is now looking to purchase. This parcel has some tax delinquency and DCR was under the understanding that the property owner was interested in the land going for conservation and was going to pay the back taxes. Mr. Wojcik stated that two years' worth of taxes are in lien, and he asked that DCR act as a partner to collect that money before the sale closes.
Mr. Morse stated that when DCR acquired the Sullivan property, there was an agreement that DCR was not going to acquire any more land in Douglas. Comm. Roy stated that he was unaware of the arrangement. Comm. Roy stated that he would honor the agreement to contact the Town before DCR negotiates to acquire more property in Douglas.
Mr. Morse stated that there are landlocked pieces of land surrounded by DCR property that Douglas would not object to being purchased. Comm. Roy stated that DCR would be interested in those properties.
Mr. Wojcik stated that the Assessor has assembled a packet of land owned free-and-clear by the Town of Douglas that either abuts or is surrounded by DCR or State land. Regarding land of unknown ownership, the Town is currently in Land Court trying to resolve those issues.
Regarding the Sullivan property, Mr. Wojcik stated that the Town was promised a gift of 11 acres of that property that runs along Rte. 16 along the Webster border. Town Meeting voted to accept that gift. The Town has still not received a plan. The Town has filed an eminent domain taking. Sen. Fattman explained the history of the purchase. The Town currently does not need anything from DCR.
Sen. Fattman stated that he and Rep. McKenna have asked the Dept. of Revenue (DOR) why would the State purchase more land when the line item for PILOT reimbursement has not been changed. The Chair of the Revenue Commission has put forward a mechanism to not purchase land without the corresponding funding to continuously reimburse the town. The BOS asked that Comm. Roy be an advocate for improving the PILOT program.
Southern New England Trunkline (SNETT) Rail Trail Update (56:43) – Comm. Roy stated that DCR is moving forward with the plan to pave and improve the SNETT. They have issued the contract for the design and permitting of the project, which will be ongoing through the end of 2020. Construction would not begin any earlier than spring of 2021, contingent on funding.
Moving Forward (46:31 & 1:02:58) – Sen. Fattman expressed the BOS' desire to have Comm. Roy attend a BOS meeting in Douglas before and after the summer season to review what worked for the park and what did not.
Chief Vinson asked if DCR could share with him a calendar of Special Use Permits for the State park so that EMS is aware. Comm. Roy asked that Ms. Stowe and Mr. VanderDecker share that calendar with Mr. Wojcik, Chief Vinson and Police Chief Miglionico.
2. Adjournment (1:06:32)
Mr. Hughes made a motion at 8:06 PM to adjourn. Mr. Bonin seconded the motion. Vote: All-Aye.
Respectfully submitted,
Mary Wright
Recording Secretary

Corruption Allegations Taint (former)Minister of Health
Sir Humphrey's has a good summary of the Auditor-General's lengthy deliberations into strange goings on at the Min of Health. Seems an extraordinary number of contracts (57/60) have been let without following a tender process to 2 former staff members. This may well be legit, but as they say the best disinfectant is sunlight. The (former) Minister has sat on the draft report but word is now leaking out.
Investigators may care also to look at the influence (or potential for) of Ms King's husband who is the COO at Hawkes Bay DHB, just to make sure there is nothing untoward! Of course it's for your own protection and for the sake of clarity and transparency, mind!

Disco Lar DL-LP 31.003
I am quite sure that you are asking yourselves, while looking at today's post, a simple direct question: Who is Luiz Lopes?
If you think that I know, then you are wrong. I have no idea at all. Looking up the usual suspects proved fruitless and the best I can hope is that someone who knows will testify here about his identity and the instrument he plays…
All I know is how these songs sound, but that is something you will also know if you listen to:
01. Theme Goodbye Again (Georges Auric)
02. Rosa de Maio (C. Mesquita / Evaldo Ruy)
03. Invidia (J. A. Montero)
04. Escândalo (Rubens Fuentes / R. Cardenas)
05. Dia de Pierrot (João Roberto Kelly)
06. Juizo Final (Lucio Cardim Filho)
07. Aconteceu (N. Reis / Dunga)
08. Deus, O Mundo E Você (Palmeira / Alvarez Filho)
09..Um Dia Virá (Adapt. Nazareno de Brito para Tema de Paganini)
10. Casa Vazia (João Roberto Kelly)
11. Pepito (Taylor / Truscott)
12. Legato A Un Granello di Sabbia (Nico Fidenco Marchetti)
LUIZ XIV, L'INCONNU New link
Créditos: Pedro & 300discos
ONE STEP FORWARD with Bossanov:
"Who is Luiz Lopes?"
I can answer, but enigma still exist!
Luiz Lopes' name is – Del Norman (at Musicolor, 1962), but who is Del Norman?
ONE MORE STEP FORWARD OR BACKWARD by Brazilliance:
According to the track lists, "Baile Dourado" by Luiz Lopes seems identical with "Mais Uma Vez Adeus" by Del Norman, issued in 1962.
The latter is featured on Toque Musical and Toque Musicall.
There is one suspicion that Del Norman (aka Luiz Lopes) is the one playing piano, organ and solovox which sounds reasonable as these are the featured instruments. There is another suspicion that Del Norman might be the nth alias of Walter Wanderley.
Well, the organ play does not really sound like WW to me, but who knows. After all, I would not take Ely Arcoverde or Ed Lincoln, into consideration but the list of possible candidates for such a kitschy (yet quite entertaining) album is endless… Aloísio Figueiredo, Celso Murilo, André Penazzi, Djalma Ferreira, Paulo Roberto, Silvio Vianna, Jorge Henrique, Renato Mendes, Lauro Paiva…

From turbo-equipped OEM vehicles straight off the showroom floor, to hot rods and muscle cars featuring huge aftermarket blowers, boost is one of the most popular ways to make added horsepower. Using information provided by Billy Godbold, Valve Train Engineering Group Leader at COMP Cams, we will explain the variety of forced induction systems currently available and the types of camshafts best suited to each type of boosted application. COMP has part-numbered forced induction cams in stock for most engines, along with a wide variety of custom grind options.
The goal of all boost systems is to get as much air-fuel charge as possible into the chamber by the time the intake valve closes, thus avoiding huge exhaust pumping losses. Engines are all basically air pumps. With turbo systems, it is important to make sure the air is going in the correct direction at intake opening. The current availability of a combination of better exhaust housings, wheels, ball bearing designs and super-efficient turbines has made that far easier than even a few years ago.
On turbo as well as blower systems, it is important to consider the strengths and weaknesses of each forced induction system. Then the cam may be chosen based on that system's performance level and features. A variety of cams are available for a wide range of applications, but here for simplicity we will compare the various features of LS-style cams.
These are the five most common subgroups of forced induction cams:
Race Turbo Systems (backpressure very close to boost in mid- to upper-RPM range):
In these applications the cams look very much like those found in normally aspirated (N/A) engines, except they are generally slightly smaller since they are moving much denser air, thereby greatly improving mass flow at similar or slower velocities than N/A.
In all cases of forced induction, it is not necessary to rely on piston movement to start drawing the intake charge. In good turbo systems, if the boost is greater than the backpressure at the exhaust valve, the intake charge will move in as soon as the intake opens. Overlap may waste significant air going through the chamber, but if the turbo compressor is oversized compared to power requirement, then trading efficiency for power can be an advantage. It is common to see turbo race cams in the mid 260s or larger duration at 0.050″ lift on rather tight lobe separation angles (such as 114), with even larger exhaust lobes if the exhaust turbine side is very good. The same N/A engine would probably have about 10-15 degrees larger duration on the intake lobe for the same RPM, and the exhaust split on a race turbo is most closely related to backpressure, whereas in N/A engines it will depend mostly on exhaust/intake flow percentage.
Due to these variances, and the type of racing these cams are being used for, racers will often specially order a custom grind cam for these systems.
Street Turbo Systems (backpressure above boost in mid- to upper-RPM range):
In good street turbo systems, the cam durations are trending larger while the lobe separation angles (LSA) are trending narrower. It is a good idea to go a bit small on cam – at low RPM there will be both low boost and low backpressure. If the engine can be cammed to be very responsive at low to mid-RPM if it were N/A, boost at higher RPM can be used to extend the power range and make the huge power numbers often achieved with turbo engines. Most street turbo systems are partial to hydraulic roller cams with intake profiles in the low 220s to high 230s at 0.050″ lift – depending upon RPM. Again, higher backpressure systems like smaller exhaust lobes and wider LSA than low backpressure systems. Basically, if the backpressure is ever higher than the boost amount, the overlap needs to be limited significantly.
A good example of a Street Remote or Rear Mount Turbo camshaft is the Remote Mount LSR™ Turbo. This is a street/strip hydraulic roller that features good responsiveness and excellent power when used with a remote mount turbo system.
Large Positive Displacement Race Blower Systems (great airflow capacity relative to engine displacement):
When NHRA Fuel cars run on Friday night, a large volume of air and nitro are pumped straight through the engine and out of the pipes before the next exhaust opening ignites the mixture. It is quite a dramatic effect for spectators – both visually and acoustically. This type of cam is not just applicable for Fuel cars, but really for any positive displacement application where mileage is not a concern and the blower size is not the major limiting factor on power. In NHRA Stock and Super Stock classes, the 4V Ford Mod may be run with two different positive displacement blowers. With the small blower, the best cams are roughly 16 degrees smaller than those used with the large blower. However, the large blower cams are typically installed on much tighter centerlines. The two applications have the same block and heads and run roughly the same RPM. But when the blower size is limited, the racers are forced to be much more conservative with the air, and hence they run almost identical exhaust opening and intake closing, but FAR less overlap.
Here is another case where rules and applications are the main variables to contend with, making a custom grind the best option for racers.
Smaller Positive Displacement Street Blower Systems (blower airflow is the main limit to power):
On most positive displacement blowers, the manufacturer can tell the user about how much air a blower will flow at a certain boost and how much power that it can support. If the blower will support 1500 HP but one only wants to make 750 HP (to save bottom end or for other reasons), it is possible to be pretty wild with the cam and have almost zero negative performance repercussions (aside from mileage). Positive displacement blower engines designed for the street tend to make a great deal of low-end torque due to the nature of the boost curve. However, they can fall off at high RPM if exhaust and intake pumping losses are allowed to build with a late exhaust open and early intake close. Therefore, the bigger cams tend to make great power, but it is necessary to pay attention to overlap if the blower flow is limited.
The LSR™ Roots Blower cam is a perfect choice for these types of street systems, as it takes into account all of the aforementioned engine characteristics. A hydraulic roller, it is the best option for street/strip applications equipped with a Roots-type supercharger.
Centrifugal Blower Systems (make greatest amount of boost at mid- to upper-RPM range):
These systems are incredibly efficient at high RPM, but provide little boost in the mid- to low-RPM range. More like the street turbo system, the cam should be selected to provide good power, even when used in a normally-aspirated application in the low engine speed or launch RPM category. Often, wider LSA and large exhaust lobes are seen on centrifugal systems. This is because exhaust pumping losses can limit performance at high RPM if the engine is fighting too hard to push out the exhaust once the centrifugal blower has reached its ideal high-RPM window. Overlap effect vs. airflow is almost identical to a positive displacement system. The main change seen on the centrifugal cams is an earlier intake closing to make the low-RPM torque.
Aptly-named LSR™ Centrifugal Blower cams are designed to make strong power when used with one of these systems, and are available for both street and race applications.
These are the most common types of forced induction systems—and the applicable cams. However, due to the number of variables between applications, it is always best to consult a tech before hitting the track or the street with any boosted hot rod.

External event|
The Mediterranean region is in the middle of a strong spatial transformation linked to population growth, widespread urbanisation and deep socio-economic changes. This transformation is particularly evident in cities. In a context characterised by disengagement of the State and weak local finances, the Mediterranean towns are or will be faced with management of the contradictory goals between the aspiration to achieve integration in a globalising economy, the growing difficulties to meet the needs of the local population, and the responsibility of managing urban environment. In this regard local authorities bring unique added value to sustainable development in the region.
They are key to mobilizing different stakeholders to collaborate, thus generating collaborative approaches for pursuing common development goals. Due to their proximity and territorial presence, as well as knowledge of local needs, local authorities can participate greatly in maximising the effects of development assistance by bilateral and multilateral donor institutions. However local capacities for decision-making and management are generally limited due to a limited transfer of resources and an effective multi-level governance system.The seminar will explore the role of local authorities in improving the liveability of Mediterranean urban areas, focusing on youth as a key driver for stability in the region.
Giulia Maci is a speaker at this event (intervention title: Urban transformation through youth engagement).

I am not sure if there is a better, more robust way to calculate this, but I feel it would be handy to have some sort of realtime FPS display in MM so that you could see if the performance was laggy, running super fast, etc.
A lot of the time we are pushing the limits of how many displays, surfaces, interactions, etc, we are using and it would be great to have feedback on if we are operating close to the edge, etc.
Any tips on low overhead programs that might do this better for PC or Mac would be appreciated!
