Imagination and Reliability
I enjoy traveling, hiking, artistic performances, restoring motorcycles, gardening, going to the beach, visiting friends and watching movies. I have traveled all over, but these days I seem to prefer places that have nice beaches and good food. I like to decompress by working around the house, cooking, practicing yoga and riding my bike. I tend to get along with people that are independent, easy going, loyal, creative and open minded. It would be nice to meet someone with similar interests to enjoy life with.

Onward to Roppongi
Edit Page Last Edit: 1 year 7 months ago
Onward to Roppongi is a short quest that starts immediately after Off Koga Saburo. All you need to do is go to the Hills Building in Roppongi. Exit out to the Roppongi Region map and head East to the first big building. Inside the Hills Building is Tayama.
Tayama will ask for one more favor before releasing the hostage. You will be given a dialogue choice to Accept or Refuse the mission. Either way, the next quest will start after everything is settled: Kill Yuriko.

They stopped carrying gluten free pasta! Also they have raised the prices. Not worth stepping foot in the restaurant and this point.
Terrible experience! Friendly staff but no understanding that ceoeliacs CANNOT have gluten. They brought an allergy list menu. We made our choices and then they said that they had no gluten free pasta but could have the sauce with spinach instead. Hmmm. No. Apparently the manager was out at the supermarket and GF pasta was on her list. I also noticed that there was no GF pizza. If you're going to buy supermarket GF pasta, why not sling a couple of GF pizza bases in the freezer too? We left. One star for actually having a list at all.
I went to the Macaroni Grill for the first time in 3 years last night. My first experience was not that great 3 years ago. The food tasted good but I got unbelievable sick from the food. My friends and I decided we should give it another try. I hate being one of the people that just goes off on people about everything being terrible so Let me start off by saying the waiter was nice and so was the manager. But that was it. We waited an hour and a half to get our food. They said it was taking so long because they had to make the gluten free pasta from scratch. Finally when our food arrived it was cold. We sent it back to get it re heated. When the food came back it was just barely warm but we were so hungry we just started eating it anyways. I was 3 bites into my meal and found a regular non gluten free pasta noodle in my food. We called the waiter over and expressed again how sever my allergy to gluten was. He apologized and said he would get a manager. When she came to the table she apologized profusely and said she had her best chef remaking my meal and that my food was on them. We thanked her and she asked how everyone else's food was. That's when we told her how long we waited and then our food was cold. Which was obviously something the waiter had not told her. She again apologized and said all of our meals were on them. At this point I had already started to get sick and I had only had the couple bites of food. I finally got my meal which tasted pretty good. We finished our meal and got the left overs to go and tipped the waiter because he did a good job. But I still got really sick after eating. I took my leftovers for lunch and as I was 3/4 the way done and I found another regular pasta noodle that was not gluten free in my food I thew the rest away And once again got really sick! Needless to say I will not be returning to Romano's macaroni grill ever again.
the best gf chicken alfredo! I've been gf for 4 years and this was the first time I have been able to have this. This puts Olive Garden to shame!!! Many gf choices and quality food, service.
760 Jefferson Rd., Rochester, NY 14623
Came for Gluten Free Pasta, after being served drinks, told they no longer carry it! There are a few other non pasta menu options.
2001 N Rainbow Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89108-7050
No gluten free pasta anymore. had to leave after a long wait :/
12148 S Apopka Vineland Rd., Orlando, FL 32836
They got rid of all their gluten free options. You can get grilled chicken but who wants that. I can make my own grilled chicken for way cheaper.
8850 Rosedale Hwy, Bakersfield, CA 93312
Update....this location no longer has a GF menu, or pasta due to cross contamination issues (according to the manager). They DO have GF items, but if you are coming for pasta you will be dissatisfied.
1958 State Route 23, Wayne, NJ 07470
They no longer have gluten free pasta as an option.
1915 Hampton Inn Ct., Winston Salem, NC 27103
They discontinued their gluten free pasta which was the reason to go there for me. No thanks to the only option of grilled chicken and broccolini! No longer celiac friendly.
2641 Prince William Pkwy., Woodbridge, VA 22192
on 3/21/15 I went and was told they had nothing gluten free on the menu and couldn't make anything gluten free. The staff even checked with the kitchen to make sure.
8620 Research Dr, Charlotte, NC 28262
Unfortunately, my celiac husband always gets his favorite meal. So all I can say is that the chicken Alfredo is excellent and he has never been sick afterwards. Update!!! Changed my review to 1star because they have removed all gluten free pasta from the menu!
3111 Preston Rd., Frisco, TX 75034-9444
We had a nice waiter, but we were informed that fbey no longer carry GF pasta because it could get cross contaminated. Won't be eating there any longer.
8156 W Bowles Ave., Littleton, CO 80123-3050
So sad that they no longer offer gluten free pasta! Used to be one of my favorites.
8620 Research Dr, Charlotte, NC 28262
I asked for a gluten free menu and I was told they didn't have one. Then I tried to order a chicken dish and was told they had run out. I ended up just eating a salad. It was definitely not the meal I was hoping for.
2100 Louisiana Blvd. NE, Albuquerque, NM 87110
This place no longer has gluten free noodles. Don't bother.
14904 N Dale Mabry Hwy., Tampa, FL 33618
They won't do gluten free because it's a "liability." I will NEVER give them business.
26641 Aliso Creek Rd., Aliso Viejo, CA 92656-2882
Romano's no longer has GF pasta. Options are very limited for those with celiac disease.
5925 Kingstowne Towne Ctr., Alexandria, VA 22315-5877
this location has ZERO KNOWLEDGE of gluten allergies.the manager I talked to when I asked about the potatoes he said they were safe if I wasnt celiac, when asked why he told me there was bread crumbs in them but not that much so it should be fine...no mention the gelato comes.with biscoti on top.. no gf menu at all, it was a lot of questionss but I know I will probably be sick later as I am gluten intolerant They no longer carry GF Noodles.
10000 West O'Hare Avenue, Chicago, IL 60666
eaten here three times each time staff asked about my GF allergy and explained what items could be substituted no published GF menu not sure kitchen has dedicated space so use caution
1580 North Dale Mabry Highway, Tampa, FL 33607
Romano ' s no longer has a gluten free menu. the hostess was awful and said she thought there was one menu item that was gluten free!
3000 184th St SW, Lynnwood, WA 98037
Romano's at the Alderwood Mall is no longer carrying the gluten free pasta. They do have some creative ways to make a gluten free meal but what's the point of Italian without the pasta.
13652 Jamboree Rd., Irvine, CA 92602
they dont have gluten free pasta anymore. just went in and sat down to eat and then the waitress told me. So I left....very awkwardly. oh well.
7607 FM 1960 Rd. W, Houston, TX 77070
I was told by their wait staff that they no longer have a gluten free menu at this restaurant. I went elsewhere. March 2, 2015
2535 Medical Center Pkwy., Murfreesboro, TN 37129
I have never had a bad experience here and the staff are all well versed in gluten free.
5045 Windward Pkwy., Alpharetta, GA 30004-3890
Used to eat GF pasta here all the time. Last week it was still on the menu so we ordered it. 10 mins later we were told they no longer carry it. Waiter didn't know either. We will not go back even for the family members that are not GF
132 Brandon Town Center Dr., Brandon, FL 33511
They no longer offer a gluten free menu and after speaking with the waiter I was uncomfortable with even ordering.
69-201 Waikoloa Beach Dr #1010, Waikoloa Village, HI 96738
4 stars due to staff understanding of gluten free options and accommodations. Able to make many items on menu gluten free and do have gluten free pasta. Very overpriced and quality of food mediocre.
2111 N Squirrel Rd., Auburn Hills, MI 48326-2351
They got rid of their gf pasta and gf menu.
2001 N Rainbow Blvd., Las Vegas, NV 89108-7050
They no longer offer gluten free options so after having to wait we had to leave. They shouldn't say its offered if it isn't.
3410 Highway 190, Mandeville, LA 70471-3102
no longer carry GF pasta.
7205 N Central Expy, Plano, TX 75025
They discontinued their entire gf menu! I don't know why, but I hope it is not because gf people complained!
5100 N 9th Ave., Penascola, FL 32504-8735
This restaurant no longer carries GF pasta, or a gluten free menu. I called prior to going and was misinformed regarding the pasta. When my daughter and I arrived, we had to get creative and the location we visited were more than accommodating to our needs. I hope that all locations learn to inform and educate their employees.
4880 Telephone Rd., Ventura, CA 93003-5234
No gluten free
900 State Rt. 17, Ramsey, NJ 07446
You have to tell them to use clean water. They reuse boiled water for their pasta. Then before you eat, ask them if the water was clean. They are usually very good. Found regular pasta 1x at bottom of my bowl. Got the whole tables meals for free plus a $50 gift card to come back. They were very sorry.
2501 S IH 35, Round Rock, TX 78664
They quit carrying gluten free pasta.
21 Blanchard Cir, Wheaton, IL 60189
They have a GF / Allergen menu and the waiter listened to our requests and assured us it would be taken care of. But I found wheat pasta in my GF pasta which meant they cooked mine in regular pasta water. To be fair, it was Saturday night. Might give them another chance.
5525 28th St SE, Grand Rapids Charter Township, MI 49546
Came here on 1/23/15; they no longer have gluten free options.
148 Harbison Blvd., Columbia, SC 29212-2204
Terrible! What a joke! Take these clowns off of your gluten free app! They stopped serving gluten free pasta one month ago! So unless you want a salad....don't go! WAS one of my favorite places to eat! I AM SO DISAPPOINTED!!!!!!
4574 Virginia Beach Blvd., Virginia Beach, VA 23462-3004
As of today they do not have the Gluten-Free Penne pasta; they were not able to inform us of whether they will be getting more or not, but they continue to advertise it as a product.
105 E Beacon Dr., Greenville, SC 29615
The Greenville, SC location does not have gluten-free.
4535 Belt Line Rd, Addison, TX 75001
A few gf free options available, but no bread, which is sad, when eating Italian. They do offer gf penne. Waiter seemed completely untrained in gf info, but kind and accommodating all the same. I chose the grilled salmon with broccolini.
5100 N 9th Ave., Penascola, FL 32504-8735
Previous reviewers- Don't be too disappointed. had the gf pasta there about a month ago and got sick as a dog. Had to be cooked in pure gluten juice. Really unfortunate because the family loves the place.
315 N Alafaya Trail, Orlando, FL 32828
They no longer have gluten free pasta. I was so excited to go there until I found out they stopped carrying it. I had the Bibb & bleu salad and the prosciutto and mozzarella appetizer, and everything was delicious, so as long as you don't have your heart set on pasta, you'll be happy!
2535 S State Rd. 7, Wellington, FL 33414-9316
12875 Towne Center Dr., Cerritos, CA 90703
They stopped serving gluten free. When I asked why, it was because they cannot train their kitchen people to avoid cross contamination. So, even while they offer gf penne, they cannot be trusted to avoid cross contamination.
8700 Northwest 18th Terrace, Miami, FL 33172
No longer carries gluten free pasta, though they tried to be accommodating.
9828 Great Hills Trail, Austin, TX 78759
No longer has a gluten free menu! Came her especially for that. A major step backwards in this world!
7245 E Gold Dust Ave., Scottsdale, AZ 85258
no more gf pasta, so they seem to not really care about gluten allergies or celiac anymore. Plus, the service was terrible and my food was cold.
21001 N Tatum Blvd., Suite 4, Phoenix, AZ 85050
Macaroni grill has stopped serving gf pasta so they decided to stop offering a gf menu. instead I got an outdated allergen menu and a rude look from the hostess. I expressed my worries to the waiter about the menu only partially matching the allergen menu, and he said, "I'm pretty sure the recipe hadn't changed for those things.". I went with it and had no problems, but the service was awful and the food was mediocre and cold.
50 South Ave., Burlington, MA 01803
I have been here several times, and depending on the staff helping you depends on your service! Some are very knowledgable while others are not, but their GF pasta is excellent, and I have never been sick as a result of eating here! Hopefully their staff becomes more knowledgable and then I will give them 5 stars!
2400 W Sahara Ave., Las Vegas, NV 89102
They discontinued the gluten free pasta. We left the place.
573 N Stephanie St., Henderson, NV 89014
They discontinued the gluten free pasta the last time I went.
14904 N Dale Mabry Hwy., Tampa, FL 33618
Only gluten free items available on the menu is pasta. They no longer have any other gluten free entrees . We walked out without ordering.

Time Out says
Posted: Mon Jul 9 2012
This is one of Time Out's 100 best bars in Paris. Click here to see the full list.
Housed in a former warehouse for art deco construction materials, Point Ephémère capitilises on its position next to the waters of the Canal Saint-Martin with a great outdoor area. In 2004 it was an artist's squat of some 1,400 metres squared, which quickly became hugely popular and near permanent – to the chagrin of Paris's City Council. Today, this breeding ground of all things artistic organises exhibitions, concerts and evenings of independent music specialising mostly in cutting edge pop, rock, electro and hip-hop, all of which are within reach of youthful budgets (€10-12 entry).
We like the Berlinesque setting with its layers of graffiti, its bare concrete, its enormous glass roof and its small-scale exhibitions. In summer from 6.30pm to 9.30pm, the aperitifs attract the crowds – reaching the bar can be something of an achievement. You can eat lunch and dinner here on the pretty, sunny terrace, and the food is good if a little expensive for the portion size. You'll jump every time a fire engine zooms out of the neighbouring fire station, but will soon settle back in next to the water.

NEW YORK -- Crude oil output from members of the Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) fell in January as Saudi Arabia continued to curtail output, according to data released Tuesday by the United States Energy Information Administration (EIA).
OPEC members pumped 30.08 MMbopd in January, compared to a revised 30.13 MMbopd in December, according to the EIA's monthly short-term energy outlook. Last month, the EIA estimated OPEC's December output was 30.28 MMbopd. The output drop was due in large part to Saudi Arabia, which cut production to 9.1 MMbopd in January from a revised 9.2 MMbopd in December. The cuts raised OPEC's overall level of spare production capacity to 2.7 MMbopd in January, up 100,000 bopd from December.
Analysts and oil traders keep close watch on OPEC's spare capacity as it provides an estimate of how much oil is available on short notice. The EIA expects OPEC spare capacity to average 2.85 MMbopd in 2013, rising to 3.38 MMbopd in 2014.

MY DRYER PREFERENCE - I prefer high quality dryers that dont fry my hair. Rather I look for dryers that help to maintain healthy ends, heat from the inside out, seal the cuticle, etc. I have used this product for about 3 months now. It is a very high quality product. Before owning this dryer, I owned the CHI Rocket (not Turbo version!) which performed well but I traded it in for a T3 Evolution. The T3 Evolution worked great, and I loved it only thing was the model brokw 3 times in 2 years. So I decided to go back to the quality of the CHI, that doesnt seem to have the same challenges with mechanical failure as the T3 manufacturers. DRY TIME - Overall, I can try my hair in the same time as the T3 (less than 5 minutes) and I believe that it leaves it with just as smooth of a finish. I have medium shoulder length hair that is very wavy. HEAT SETTINGS - There are two heat settings. 1 and 2. I call them Hot, and Hotter. There is no warm, and no way to change the speed with each setting. This is actually one downside from the T3, which gave a variety of 6 combo heat and speed settings. I had learned how to do lots of cool tricks on low speed high heat vs. high speed low, etc. The CHI Rocket offers 1 Low Heat Setting and Regular speed, and 1 High Heat setting at High Speed. Both settings rock. Also, there is a COOL button - you can click it in so you dont have to hold it down. This is also a great feature for sealing hair and setting styles. On the blow dryer, there is a light indicator that goes from green (cool) to orange (warm) to red(Hot) to let you know what setting your dryer is working on. While there are only two settings, I cannot stress enough that this dryer gets CONSIDERABLY HOT in compared to many other salon quality dryers. If you like to do dominican blow outs, this is the dryer for you. You HAVE to know what you're doing or you will burn yourself. I actually purchased this dryer because I remember my stylist using it long ago. ACCESSORIES - The other great thing is the dryer comes with a comb attachment and directed nozzle spray -- big plus!! The come attachment saves so much time and sometimes I dont even ahve to use a round brush. If you are someone that cannot blow dry your hair without a comb attachment, this is a great dryer for you. WEIGHT & NOISE - I would say weight is average, I dont get tired but then again I am not drying very long. Noise is manageable for a blow dryer, it doesnt wake my husband up in the AM when I am getting dressed before him. All in all, I would recommend this dryer to someone who wishes to invest a bit more for longevity in a dryer, uses dryer for professional styling techniques, and likes to use comb attachments with dryers.
I was extremely pleased with the chi hair dryer. I purchased it because I had hair stylist tell me how they used it and were pleased with it. I have been using it for 3 weeks now and it is gentler on my hair. My hair is color treated and does not dry out with this hair dryer. I would definately suggest the Chi.
This hair dryer has cut the time spend on my hair in half. I have thick, coarse hair that usually breaks comb attachments but the Chi just glides through it! I do have one gripe, however. The placement of the on/off switch and cool shot button make if very awkward to hold while I am drying my hair. I often turn off the dryer or hit the cool shot while styling and that can get pretty frustrating.Overall, it's a good product and I'm glad I spent the money. It was well worth it!
This is the rolls Royce of hair dryers. Worth every penny.. Love how my drying time is cut in half and how good my hair looks
I like to use this dryer on cool only to elongate my curls for wash days.
Most hair dryers make my hair frizzy and I was hoping this one would do better and I was so happy when I tried it and had the smoothest hair I've had in years without straightening it. I don't really understand the technology behind it, but I do know that it works and couldn't be happier. This was a great investment so far and definitely worth the money!
When I first saw the price, I was skeptical of purchasing this...until I read the reviews that other people put. It sounded too good to be true, but I said what the heck, let's try it out. YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR--IT IS WORTH EVERY PENNY!!!! I have fine hair, but LOTS of it and it is several feet in length (almost touches the end of my back). My SOAKING WET hair will be bone dry and SO smooth in only 15 minutes--10 minutes if I'm doing a rushed blow drying job. I also use "It's a 10 - Leave In Plus Keratin Hair Conditioner Treatment" prior to drying my hair, which definitely helps with the smoothness and softness of my blown-dry hair--but even without using this, this hair dyer still made my hair feel so soft. I've had this dryer for a year now and have not had any issues with it...will definitely buy another one (or a newer version) in a couple years when it's time to replace this hair dryer. THIS IS A MUST BUY.
I'm a hairstylist and this is my favorite hair dryer!
Wow! I don't know what I did before this hair dryer! Fast dry time, doesn't damage my hair. I ended up working out of town for a month and after a week and a half of hotel hairdryers I had mine shipped to me. I can't do without it!
- How did the image on site compare with the actual product? looks exactly the same
- How accurate was the on site description of the product? perfect
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. excellent
Overall, it is all-right dryer. It is quiet and light. However it dose not save my hair-drying time, and it does not smooth my hair either.
I ordered this hair dryer for my daughter and she absolutley loves it. She said it the best hair dryer she has ever owned. Thank you for always being there to help me find just what I want.
Dries hair very quickly. I have thick hair and I'm done blow drying in 20 minutes tops! It also makes hair very smooth (also have curly hair) and blow dries straight without adding time on. Best blow dryer I have bought. I have owned other expensive dryers but this is by the far the best!
This is the second Rocket I have purchased. The first one lasted well over 5 years of daily use by three women with long hair. Dries hair very quickly. Only downside is the cord which tangles and twists easily.
My Husband bought me this for Christmas and it works so well!! My hair looked very shiny and healthy after using it the first time!! It relaxed my hair a lot and was not as frizzy. Of course I followed it up with the amazing Chi straightener as well:)
"Does a great job with the hair and dries very quickly, but a little heavier than I had anticipated." - the wife.
This hair dryer is the best. It dries your hair fast, isn't real noisy and helps put shine in your hair. This is my second one since I had my first one stolen while on a trip. Overstock has great customer service and this item arrived within 2 days of ordering. I recommend this hair dryer and this is the best price I have found. Buy it you'll like it.
I wish I would have purchased a nice hair dryer like this years ago. It's quiet and has a lot of power. Best of all, I can't believe the difference it makes in my hair - it's so shiny and soft! This is huge because my hair gets a lot of abuse - I dry it and flat iron it every day. I will never go back to the $30 dryers again.
Great product - it is very quiet -- so much so that I initially didn't think the power was there, but it works really well for taming out of control curls.
I have wanted a CHI Rocket for years since that is what my hairdresser has always used. Love it!! I have thick, naturally curly hair and the Rocket smooths it and dries it quickly!!
I did a lot of research for a blow dryer that was well loved and had attachments. This dryer was surprisingly smaller than expected but VERY VERY POWERFUL! I was 13 weeks post relaxer and out of braids. It blow dried quickly, without damage and is simply wonderful.

Common Illnesses And How To Cure Them
Hey guys, it's corgi luver! This cheat is about how to cure all the basic illnesses. It will be organized like so... (Illness in real life), (action), (movement (nm= no movement), (sound, if any (Ns= no sound),(medicine), (cost)
Ok here goes:
- Sore throat, throat doesn't feel right, waving, groaning noise throat lozenges, 25 coins
- Stomachache, stomach hurting, on the floor, hand on stomach, moving slightly, groaning and moaning, peptic syrup, 65 coins
- Headache, Oww. head hurting, waving, groaning, Anti-inflammatory pills, 35 coins
- Allergys, Sneezing, jumping violently, sneezing sound, antihistamines, 25 coins (either that or 35, sorry not sure, but as I'm doing this on my iPod, every time I close safari, everything gets deleted)
- A cough, cold, bronchitis, pneumonia, whooping cough, ect., cant stop coughing, jumping a little, coughing noise, antitussive syrup, 45 coins (I think!!!)
- Rash, poison ivy, ect., Itchy, dancing weirdly, Ns, crontsive cream, 25,35, or 45 coins (really sorry bout that guys!!!)
Basic things about all sicknesses:
- The status bar will say sick, or a bit sick on it.
- When the sick person is picked up they will make the sound of the sickness loudly in thier voice (I.e, old men will do their sound low, little girls will groan much higher)
- If all else fails, and my guide is a piece of garbage (which I hope it's not :) then doctor consultations are always available at all generations at the bottom of the food and medicine catagory for 475.
- If they shake thier heads it means you gave them the wrong medicine. Whoops.
- TIP: I find that when you want to cure someone, you should give them medicine while it says the sickness description. That way it can't have changed, so you won't waste 40 or so coins. Yay for you.
So anyways thanks for reading and like (I don't know why I say that, I just do) and I REALLY hope I helped you guys! I'm sorry about not having the answer to not just a virus and gravelly ill, if I find out ill be sure to tell you guys!! See y'all later!! Love corgis!

ProSoccerTalk's MLS Best XI, 2013 season launch edition
Mar 1, 2013, 6:52 PM EDT
As part of our ongoing package previewing start of Major League Soccer's 18th season, here are the best and brightest MLS men at their positions as we head into Saturday's first kick.
GK = Sporting Kansas City's Jimmy Nielsen
Why we like him: The best MLS blend of talent and experience, although Seattle's Michael Gspurning or Real Salt Lake's Nick Rimando could easily fill this spot. And who knows … the LA Galaxy's Carlo Cudicini, just in from his days at Tottenham, could be the wild card here.
Back line:
RB = Vancouver's Lee Young-Pyo
CB = LA Galaxy's Omar Gonzalez
CB = San Jose's Victor Bernardez
LB = New York Red Bulls' Heath Pearce
Why we like them: Who dares come through the middle against these two big ol' hosses? Bernardez and Gonzalez would be the baddest, most bang-'em up central combo around these parts since Alexi Lalas and Marcelo Balboa were knockin' heads on the 1994 U.S. World Cup side. (And our MLS pair would come equipped with greater skill, too.) As for Pearce at left back, I'll repeat what I said yesterday in our all-Yank version of this team: Yes, he has been and may still line up centrally. But Pearce has 35 full U.S. national team appearances … all at left back. That's his best spot.
Defensive MF = Seattle's Osvaldo Alonso
RMF = Houston Dynamo's Oscar Boniek Garcia
LMF = D.C. United's Dwayne De Rosario
Attacking MF = Columbus Crew's Federico Higuain
Why we like them: Yes, I cheated a little. De Rosario will play centrally this year for D.C. United, somewhere, either as a second forward or as an attacking midfielder. But he has played along the left before in MLS. So there. This arrangement serves to get the best players "on the field."
Look at it for a second … picture it on the field … and don't be embarrassed if you drool just a little.
Front line:
FW = New York Red Bulls' Thierry Henry
FW = LA Galaxy's Robbie Keane (pictured)
Why we like them: There are a lot of years (not to mention a lot of decoration … a FIFA World Cup crown, Champions League medals, too many World Cup qualifiers to remember, etc.) with these two. Let's go with, "Old enough to know … but still young enough to do." Because these two were absolutely getting the business done at the end of last year, especially so with Keane and the Galaxy.

Gondomar Things to Do
"Think big" was the rule for Portuguese politicians, while investing some other's money in their show-off. The invoice is coming now!
The small city of Gondomar is a good example, with a large herd of white elephants. One of the biggest must be this huge library, built in 2005, with, I guess, a separated room for each reader.Related to:
- Arts and Culture
- Architecture
Gondomar was always known as the goldsmiths' city. With a special technique to produce gold and silver lace, and a few typical designs, they conquered a great reputation all over the country and abroad. I visited Gondomar for the first time for a meeting in the goldsmiths' training center, and could see the careful investment done developing their skills.
A monument to the goldsmith, is so inevitable as fair. I am not competent to judge the monument, conceived by a local young artist, but I like it.Related to:
- Architecture
- Arts and Culture
I was imagining what should have been the total cost of the multi-use pavilion, planned by one of the most distinguished Portuguese architects - Siza Vieira, when I saw the municipal auditorium, that, though a few hundred meters apart, looks like matching the pavilion's plan. I couldn't find when and how it was planned and built, but it is for sure recent and... expensive, of course, with its 262 seats.Related to:
- Festivals
- Arts and Culture
Gondomar Favorites
Favorite thing: It's easy to understand how Gondomar grew in recent days. If not in size, or population, at least improving and modernizing its resources. It's possible to see in town contrast between the images of a modern metropolis, and the signs of the small, almost rural old city.
Which one is the most accurate image? Which one is the real Gondomar? Maybe both, as a result of a very dynamic development processRelated to:
- Historical Travel
- Architecture

Cuisinart has a SodaStream knockoff on the market now - uses 3 oz (85 g) CO2 cartridges - 9.99 each refill. Anyone know if there is a compatible QD setup and regulator?
This isn't nearly as cost effective as a paintball tank, but it seems like a cool Idea.
On a related note - has anyone found a regulator/adapter that works with SodaStream adapters?
Brewguyver - the man who does everything wrong so you won't have to!
Can you open up the machine and connect to the line that went to the cartrige? Maybe using a compression fitting? Or if there is room can you take an empty cartridge drill a hole and have a steel mfl Welded on? Then you could hook up a high pressure hose directly from your larger tank.

Synthesis of Multicyclic Products from Annulation Reaction of an Imadazoline and β-Hydroxy Carboxylic Acids: Imidazolines are nitrogen containing hetercycles that can be found in natural products. They have unique properties particularly their ability to react with electrophiles and nucleophiles. If reacted with a molecule that contains both, imidazolines can undergo annulations to produce many interesting products. This study attempted to prepare a multicyclic product from the reaction of 1-benzyl-2-phenyl-2-imidazoline with salicyloyl chloride or salicylic acid under three different conditions to determine which was optimal. The first reaction is a two step process that uses salicyloyl chloride produced from salicylic acid. The salicyloyl chloride is then used in an annulations reaction with the imidazoline. Production of salicyloyl chloride by known methods failed. Conditions two and three attempted a similar annulations using the coupleing reagents BOP-Cl and EDC with salicylic acid and the imidazoline. These reagents work to bond the carboxylic acid to the imidazoline N and make the reaction one step. The EDC reaction failed to produce the right product, the BOP-Cl reaction appeared successful based on GCMS. However, during the purification the product was not able to be isolated.

YARN AND METHOD OF MAKING THE SAME Filed Nov. 29, 1967 INVENTOR. Hora/0 4. W0 fleas nited States Patent 3,479,811 YARN AND METHOD 0r MAKING THE SAME Harold A. Walters, Beaverton, Mich, assignor to The Dow Chemical Company, Midland, Mich, a corporation of Delaware Filed Nov. 29, 1967, Ser. No. 686,656 Int. Cl. D02g 3/22, 3/36; 132% 7/20 US. Cl. 57-153 12 Claims ABSTRACT OF THE DISCLOSURE Expandable microspheres are incorporated in a thread or yarn, subsequently heated to expand the microspheres and bulk the yarn. Bulking of the yarn after weaving or sewing provides tightly woven fabric or locked-in sewing thread.
This invention relates to treated yarn and a method, and more particularly relates to the incorporation of expandable microspheres into textile yarns.
The bulking of yarns has been accomplished by various means. Fabrics have been impregnated with expanded and expandable microspheres. However, such impregnation is usually carried out after the weaving or other intertwining process has been completed. Oftentimes, it IS desirable that the yarns expand after being formed or incorporated into an article to provide what appears to be a tighter weave or otherwise secure and/ or interlock the yarn with its adjacent neighbors.
It would be advantageous if there were available a method and yarn which would form apparently relatively densely woven fabric without the necessity of weaving tightly.
It would also be beneficial if there were available a sewing thread which could be subsequently expanded after installation in a desired location.
It would also be desirable if there were avialable an improved method for bulking yarn.
These benefits and other advantages in accordance with the present invention are achieved by providing a yarn of a fibrous nature, impregnating the yarn with a dispersion containing expandable synthetic resinous microspheres which comprise a synthetic thermoplastic resinous wall and a distinct and separate liquid phase of a volatile expanding agent, subsequently disposing said microspheres within the yarn in a desired location, heating the yarn to a temperature sufiicient to cause expansion of the microspheres, thereby causing bulking of the yarn.
Also contemplated within the scope of the present invention is a yarn of a fibrous nature containing therein a plurality of synthetic resinous thermoplastic microspheres having a distinct and separate liquid phase therein, the microspheres being capable of expanding on heating to a diameter substantially greater than the original diameter of the microsphere.
Further features and advantages of the present invention will become more apparent from the following specication when taken in connection with the drawing wherein:
FIGURE 1 is a schematic enlarged representation of a yarn in accordance with the present invention.
FIGURE 2 is a schematic cross-sectional representation of a fabricated article in accordance with the invention.
FIGURE 3 is a schematic representation of a yarn having expanded microspheres therein.
In FIGURE 1 there is depicted a schematic representation of a yarn of a fibrous nature generally indicated by the reference numeral 10. The yarn 10 comprises a plurality of fibers or filaments 11 disposed in generally parallel adjacent relationship. A plurality of expandable syn- 3,479,811 Patented Nov. 25, 1969 'ice thetic resinous microspheres 12 are disposed in interstitial spaces 13 between the adjacent filaments 11. The microspheres 12 consist of a synthetic resinous thermoplastic hollow spherical shell containing a distinct and separate liquid phase of a blowing agent therein. Such expandable microspheres are well known in the art and are set forth in Belgian Patent 641,711.
In FIGURE 2 there is represented a schematic sectional view of a fabric 20 prepared from yarn in accordance with the present invention. The fabric 20 comprises a first set of generally parallel yarns 21 and a second set of generally parallel yarns 22 disposed generally in angular relationship to the set 21 and interwoven therewith. The dotted lines indicate the configuration of the yarns 21 and 22 after being subjected to heat sufiicient to cause the microspheres contained within the filaments to expand.
In FIGURE 3 there is depicted a portion of an expanded yarn 25 which has been removed from a fabric structure after expansion of the yarn. The yarn 25 has unexpanded or locking portions 26 and 27 arising from mechanical restraint during microspheres expansion.
A wide variety of yarns may be employed in the practice of the present invention such as threads, cordage and the like prepared from cotton, silk, jute, sisal, hemp, linen and wool, as Well as synthetics such as vinylidene chloride polymer multifilament, nylon, polyacrylonitrile, polyethylene, terephthalate, polypropylene, polyvinyl chloride, viscose rayon and blends of natural fibers, synthetic fibers as well as blends of natural and synthetic fibers.
It is critical to the present invention that the yarn define accessible void spaces between the fibers or filaments and be capable of expansion; that is, separation of the fibers or filaments sufiicient to admit microspheres into the interstitial spaces. Most yarns meet these requirements. A few yarns have been treated with a coating or bonding material or by heat treatment to a degree sufiicient to prevent such expansion. A wide variety of expandable microspheres are known and described in Belgian Patent 641,711. Generally, the particular nature of the microsphere is not critical. However, it is generally desirable to select a heat expanding microsphere having a composition which permits expansion at a temperature appropriate to the yarn employed; that is, one should not employ a microsphere which expands at a temperature above a temperature at which the strength or quality of the yarn or thread being treated is impaired such as by de-orientation, shrinkage, embrittlement or the like.
Oftentimes it is desirable to apply the microspheres to the yarn in combination with an adhesive material which promotes adhesion of the microspheres in the unexpanded form and subsequently in the expanded form to the surface of the fibers or filaments making up the yarn. Such adhesives or binders are well known and some are described in Belgian Patent 641,711. If, due to the particular nature of the yarn, an adhesive or binder is required, it is essential that one that is employed be inert to the expandable microspheres; that is, the binder must not destroy the structure of the microsphere. Typical binders or adhesives which are employed are synthetic resinous latexes or colloidal dispersions which are film forming at temperatures at which the microspheres initially start to expand to temperatures well below ambient temperatures. The particular adhesive employed will depend on the yarn, the characteristics required in the finished yarn such as friction, stiffness and the like. Selection of such adhesives is well within the skill of the art. Film forming synthetic resinous dispersions, such as polymers of styrene and butadiene such as a polymer of 70 parts by weight styrene and 30 parts by weight butadiene, are eminently satisfactory for many purposes, as are film forming vinylidene chlo-' ride polymers in aqueous colloidal dispersion such as a polymer of 85 weight percent vinylidene chloride and 15 weight percent acrylonitrile; water-soluble synthetic resins such as polyacrylic acid; water or alcohol soluble resins such as hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose; thermosetting resins such as the epoxy resins and the like. Beneficially in many instances, the addition of an adhesive may be omitted particularly with sized synthetic resinous yarns which have outer surfaces coated with a resin which softens or becomes tacky at temperatures of about 100 to 125 C., such as a polymer of 72 weight percent ethylene and 28 weight percent acrylic acid.
Beneficially in the practice of the present invention, the expandable synthetic resinous microspheres may be incorporated Within the yarn by a variety of techniques including immersion of the yarn in a liquid suspension of expandable microspheres. Beneficially, a tow of such yarns is impregnated by spraying, dipping, rolling, brushing or other conventional liquid-applying means. One particularly advantageous method of preparing a yarn impregnated with expandable microspheres is to pass the yarn to be coated through a bath and subsequently doctor the excess material therefrom by means of a perforated rubber diaphragm.
By way of further illustration, a polymerization re actor equipped with an agitator is charged with 100 parts of deionized water and 15 parts of a 30 weight percent colloidal silica dispersion in water. The colloidal silica dispersion is 30 weight percent solids and available under the trade name of Ludox HS. To this mixture is added 2.5 parts of a 10 weight percent aqueous solution of a copolymer prepared from diethanol amine and adipic acid in equimolar proportions by carrying out a condensation: reaction to give a product having a viscosity of about 100 centipoises at 25 C. One part of a solution containing 2.5 weight percent potassium dichromate is added. The pH of the aqueous solution is adjusted to 4 with hydrochloric acid. A methyl methacrylate and acrylonitrile mixture is utilized as the monomer in a proportion of 4:1, respectively. An oil phase mixture is prepared utilizing 100 parts of the foregoing monomer mixture and containing 35 weight percent neopentane and 0.1 part of benzoyl peroxide as a catalyst. The oil phase mixture is added to the water phase with violent agitation supplied by a blade rotating at a speed of about 10,000 revolutions per minute. The reactor is immediately sealed and a portion of the contents sampled to determine the particle size. The droplets appear to have diameters of from about 2 to about 10 microns. After the initial dispersion, the reaction mixture is maintained at a temperature of about 80 C. for a period of 24 hours. At the end of this period, the temperature is lowered and the reaction mixture has the appearance of a white, milky liquid similar to a chalkwhite milk. A portion of the mixture is filtered to remove the beads and the beads subsequently dried in an air oven at a temperature of about 30 C. A portion of the dried beads are heated in an air oven at a temperature of 150 C. for about 3 minutes. Upon heating, the beads show a marked increase in volume. Microscpoic examination of the beads prior to foaming indicates beads having diameters of from about 2 to about 10 microns and having dispersed therein a distinct spherical zone which appears to contain liquid and a small Vapor space. The beads which have been heated are examined micro scopically and are found to have diameters of from about 2 to times the diamter of the original bead and a relatively thin, transparent wall and a gaseous center, i.e., a monocell. The remaining portion of the chalk-White material is filtered to provide a wet'filter cake containing about 29.6 Weight percent expandable microspheres. A coating mixture is prepared by admixing 81.1 parts by weight of a polymer latex of 60 weight percent styrene and 40 weight percent butadiene which is 49.3 weight percent solids, 2.7 parts by weight of a 25 weight percent aqueous solution of sodium dodecyl diphenyl oxide disulfonate, 207 parts by weight of water and 16.2 parts by weight of a 5 weight percent aqueous solution of a thickening agent commercially available under the trade designation of Acrysol GS. The coating solution is then applied to a plurality of yarns by immersing the yarns and doctoring olf excess coating material by drawing through an opening formed by perforating a thin rubber diaphragm with a needle. The coated yarn is air-dried at a temperature of about 60 C. Portions of the thread are subsequently formed by heating in an air oven at 135 C. The yarns employed and the results are as follows:
YARN 1 A No. 40 cotton thread is coated with a dry coating weight of 0.0846 gram per 10 feet and after expansion increases to about twice its original diameter.
YARN 2 A No. 50 cotton thread is coated with a dry coating weight of 0.0534 gram per 10 feet and after expansion increases to about twice its original diameter.
YARN 3 A sized silk thread manufactured by Belding and Corticelli is coated with a dry coating weight of 0.1336 gram per 10 feet and after expansion increases to about 50 percent of its original diameter with a substantial increase in thickness.
YARN 4 A nylon thread designated as Coats and Clark Taslan textured nylon thread is coated with a dry coating weight of 0.042 gram per 10 feet and after expansion of the microspheres shows localized areas of individual fibers curled and standing out from the body of the thread.
YARN 5 Coats and Clark No. 333 wool yarn requires a dry coating weight of 0.0289 gram per 10 feet and on expansion increases its diameter about 2.5 times.
Other foamable microsphere coating compositions are prepared as follows:
COMPOSITION A 106.6 parts by weight of expandable microspheres having a polymer shell which is a polymer of weight percent vinylidene chloride and 20 weight percent acrylo nitrile containing 35 weight percent neopentane based on the combined weight of polymer and neopentane, the filter cake containing 25 weight percent Water, parts by weight of water, 40 parts by weight of a 60-40 copolymer of styrene and butadiene latex, 50 Weight percent solids, 78.3 parts by weight of a 5 weight percent solution of the sodium salt of polyacrylic acid.
COMPOSITION C Ninety parts by weight of a wet filter cake of expandable microspheres having a polymer shell of 60 weight percent styrene and 40 weight percent acrylonitrile copolymer containing 35 weight percent neopentane based on the combined weight of the polymer and neopentane and 25 parts by weight water, 103 parts by weight water, 60.4 parts by weight of an aqueous latex, 50 percent solids of a polymer of 85 weight percent vinyl chloride, weight percent butyl acrylate and 5 weight percent acylic acid, 10 parts by weight of a 10 weight percent solution of hydroxyethyl cellulose.
COMPOSITION D Ninety-four parts by weight of a wet filter cake of expandable microspheres having a polymer shell of 80 weight percent methyl methacrylate and weight percent methyl acrylate and weight percent neopentane based on the combined weight of the neopentane and the copolymer and 25 weight percent water, 100 parts by weight water, parts by weight of a weight percent solids latex of a polymer of weight percent styrene and 40 weight percent butadiene, 78.3 parts by weight of a 5 Weight percent aqueous solution of the sodium salt of polyacrylic acid.
Similar beneficial and advantageous results are obtained when cotton, silk, wool and nylon threads are coated With compositions A, B, C, and D. Use of coated or impregnated threads prepared in accordance with the present invention is susceptible of being embodied with 1y heated to a temperature sufficient to cause expansion, substantially eliminates the need for knotting or tying of the thread at either end thereof, as after heating the thread to cause expansion, it is difiicult to remove the thread from a woven fabric. Similar advantages are achieved when expandable thread of the present invention is employed for attaching buttons. Fabric woven from the expandable yarns prepared in accordance with the present invention and heat treated to expand the microspheres provides a dense-appearing fabric much tighter than original weave and with significant antiravelling properties.
As is apparent from the foregoing specification, the present invention is susceptible of being embodied with various alterations and modifications which may differ particularly from those that have been described in the preceding specification and description. For this reason, it is to be fully understood that all of the foregoing is intended to be merely illustrative and is not to be construed or interpreted as being restrictive or otherwise limiting of the present invention.

There isn't, but what dcsimmons was quoting was the requirement from the late 60's, not the requirement of today, which in all its legalistic and bureaucratic glory, is:
So when you say "doing the project all by yourself is okay as long as it is beneficial to the organization," that should not be in the present tense. It WAS okay. Now (as I am sure you already know) you must "give leadership to others." (And a bunch of paperwork and other stuff, not to mention the actual project.)
CM Mike's OP (you remember the OP, don't you?) was about collection-type projects.
For a long time our council discouraged and usually denied collection projects. It took a lot to sell the EP review committee on them. The rule of thumb was to get approved, a collection project needed to look like a small manufacturing operation. Unmanned collection bins didn't cut it. I know a few projects approved on the basis of building the bins, but they were eventually frowned on as the bulk of the work went toward build single-use bins which weren't terribly useful to the beneficiary organization past the single collection drive. (I suppose if Goodwill wanted a number of bins built which they would use over and again, that would have been okay.)
The council has loosened its outright ban on collections, but there are certain criteria which needs to be met: Simply putting out unmanned bins and emptying them occasionally still isn't going to be accepted. There must be some process involved which requires organization and leadership. For example, a coat drive would be acceptable if it included a process where the Scout organized the cleaning, inspection, repair, sizing and distribution of the coats. Emptying bins and dropping off garbage bags of coats at the homeless shelter won't cut it. One of my Scouts recently completed a book drive which included outfitting a reading room at a community center with bookshelves and collecting books to stock them. Building the shelves would have probably been an acceptable project without the book drive. The shelves and collection together made for a very substantial project.

The Undercover Economist Strikes Back
This cordial look at our recession's slow recovery has all the answers – and the questions to boot.
By Charles Reinhardt for The Barnes & Noble Review
Economics is pretty boring at the best of times. When the system is humming along and most people are employed, subjects like interest rates, inflation, and financial stability seem dry to most. But in the midst of a grindingly slow recovery from the worst downturn since the Great Depression, the proportion of people that want a better understanding of how the whole thing works has grown; economic festivals have sprouted up in Europe, and global debt commentary has even bled into stand-up routines, if only at a rhetorical level.
Tim Harford's new explainer, The Undercover Economist Strikes Back, goes a good way toward meeting this need, serving as a lighthearted compendium of the main fault lines of disagreement in the famously contentious field of macroeconomics, while also making a good-faith effort to show the relative merits of different points of view. It's written in a breezy manner, employing the same conversational question-and-answer style that structured its predecessor "The Undercover Economist": "'Moderate inflation' sounds a bit like 'moderate pregnancy' to me," Harford quips.
The book is littered with pop culture and literary references located at the beginning of each chapter, including two particularly chuckle-worthy excerpts from Douglas Adams's "Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy" and "The Restaurant at the End of the Universe," recounting the sad fates of the Alterian dollar and Flainian Pobble Beads and advising against using tree leaves as legal tender. This approach is good, because it helps dilute the two dominant emotions people associate with economics: tedium and dread.

well known names outside India. There is a lot of work to be done, and if
you ever wanted to get involved with a FOSS project, this would be a good
way to start. And since the port going on is to the OPenEmbedded platform,
you would actually be involved with both projects.

Need Tree Selection Advice
We recently cut down a linden tree because it was simple out of control and making a huge mess. I need advice on a replacement tree please.
I would like:
*A tree that will provide shade
*A tree that does not spit any type of black/gum/goo/nuts/seeds/helicopters/etc all over my deck
*A tree that grows reasonably quickly (I'm 59 yrs old and I'd like to get some benefit from it:-)
*A tree that can stand full sun and wind
* A tree that can stand our Niagara Region (minus 15 to plus 30 C weather)
Any advice?
Many thanks.
*A tree that does not spit any type of black/gum/goo/nuts/seeds/helicopters/etc all over my deck
==>> a deck umbrella..
and plant the tree further from the deck and house????
ps: you may as well add... and it will mow my lawn for me... lol ... we have all been searching for this perfect tree.. forever ...
pps: i prefer oak ... but again.. acorns...
- Dawn Redwood
- Autumn blaze maple (redxsilver)
- Aspen or other mess-less poplar
- DED-resistent Elm (minor seed mess)
- white pine (some needle mess)
- river birch (some seed mess)
- Willow (weak wooded so will eventually drop branches, don't plant close to the house)
all trees have drawbacks, and all will have SOME mess. Above are fast growing with minimal mess. Most of them do not live incredibly long, and may present problems if planted close to your foundation (esp willow). I ordered roughly in order of best to worst (everyone will have their own opinions)

Siddharth Roy Kapoor, managing director, Studios, Disney UTV, has confirmed they are in talks with a Korean production house for the remake rights of Remo Dsouza's "ABCD: Any Body Can Dance".
Asked if the Korean production house has shown interest in the film for a remake, Siddharth said, "Actually, we are still in talks, it is very early to say anything. We have got enquiry rights from various people, so it is a bit too early to comment on that."
"But we are very happy with the success of the film," he added.
"ABCD: Any Body Can Dance" featured Prabhudheva in the lead role. If reports are to be believed, the Korean production house is approaching "Gangnam Style" singer Psy to play Prabhudheva's role in the remake.
