![]() It’s open 24 hours and there are now 2 locations to check out (not to mention others popping up in other cities including Taipei City?), so you might not have to stand in the famously long line up. We took Macca to Voodoo Donuts, who have become famous for their intensely sweet and strange delights. We, of course, had to get our hands on as many craft beers as possible ( read where we went here) and pretty much spent the whole weekend eating. But as we expected in this multi-layered city, we only scratched the surface. Macca had never been before, so we went hard for a couple of days, trying to see as many little corners of the city we could. And probably a street busker who just wants to hear about your childhood. Where you can probably find a cute little boutique store anywhere you look, and the same goes for a deliciously crafted hoppy drink. It’s a place where odd is celebrated and out of the box is the norm. The opening scene of Portlandia is a musical number called “ Dream of the 90’s is Alive in Portland” – so, you know? There is a grunginess to it that may be there because that’s the way they like it. Skits that poke fun at bike lanes, whatever the alternative to milk is this week, coffee shop culture it all hits close to home and hits a funny bone for us Vancouverties.Ī photo posted by ? snapchat-> abritandabroad on at 9:11pm PDTĪnd yet, Portland is so itself. I think I like it so much because many of the very “Portland” things are also very Vancouver. ![]() Not to mention one of my favourite TV shows staring Carrie Brownstein and Fred Armisen (formerly of Saturday Night Live), which centers around the many characters you find in Portland: aptly named “Portlandia”. Portland has been put on the map for a few reasons the craft brewery culture, an affinity to draw artists and creative types to it, a certain sugary donut shop, the practice of dining and drinking out and the many top notch restaurants that go along with it. Seeing Portland through the eyes of the Broad Yes, Portland is pretty frickin’ weird, and that’s just the way we like it. You could just walk around the city like we did or sit in a bar knocking back a couple of suds and you’d still get a feel for the place. The thing about Portland is you don’t actually have to do anything to experience it. Yep, we have to admit, this was pretty weird. Once we had found the world’s smallest park, we thought we’d play Frisbee with the world’s smallest Frisbee (obviously a 5cent coin). Despite no signs or placards, we knew this had to be the place. Whether Kate’s Park is officially the world’s smallest park is debatable, but if that’s what the internet says it has to be true, right?Īfter about 10 minutes of searching, we eventually came across a tiny 2ft bush in the middle of a relatively busy intersection. When we’re in a new city, Brianna and I always like to find something ‘alternative’ to do, the lesser known tourist attractions, so when we found out about Kate’s Park, the “world’s smallest park”, we knew we had to check it out for ourselves. I can’t remember the last time I played an old fashioned pinball machine it felt like I was eight-years-old on Brighton Pier again! This is one of the darkest and dingiest places you’ll find, yet it’s packed from wall to wall with old arcade games and pinball machines. I tell you what, that little walk was the perfect way to get you in the mood for a couple of beers and going out.īeing the big kid that I am, another thing that I loved doing in Portland was Ground Kontrol, the 90s arcade. In the evenings when we walked back into town we had the city lights in front of us getting brighter and brighter with every step we took, and you could almost feel the energy coming off of the city. Yet it was this walk over the bridge that really brought Portland to life for us. We stayed at Jupiter Hotel, a short 10-minute walk over the bridge from Downtown. ![]() This is where all the exciting things happen. The thing Brianna and I quickly learned was that this was a city you’ve just got to experience at street level. With the raw beauty of Cannon Beach and the Oregon Coast which is dotted with slow surf towns, I thought Portland would be pretty laid back too, yet it buzzes with life at all times of the day seriously, this place never sleeps. ![]() Without a doubt one of the best things about the US is that every state and every city is just so different from one another, and that’s true for Oregon and Portland too. And I say that in the best way possible!įrom the city’s slogan “Keep Portland weird” to the people you meet on the streets, one of the first things that I noticed about Portland was that this is a place that takes pride on being peculiar, on being that little bit strange. I always knew Portland was cool, a haven for hipsters, but I never knew it was so frickin’ weird too.

![]() Maple Twist is an aromatic, but it's sort of a inbetweener and just an hour after smoking there was no ghosting of the pipe that I could detect. The maple flavor is definitely there and gentle sips across the top and sides of my tongue did have a mild maple taste. The relight was only slightly persnickety (thanks Zippo) and in a few minutes the Twist was in its prime. The false light is very sweet and reminds me of the first few puffs of a sweet cigar. But I walked away with glassy eyes and a smirk on my face (no EMTs this time). I was spoiled by the delicious, rich flavor, and I couldn't stop till I completely killed that bowl. So I'm in love! Problem is, will my taste buds ever settle for less? I carefully sliced, unwound and dried a bit too much for a small bowl, so I ignored the warnings and smoked a medium sized bowl of this wonderful stuff. And, boy, the nicotine contribution is splendid. Of the three I have tried so far (Rum and Black Irish) this is my favorite rope because the maple topping is just awesome. No surprises, no complexities, just good deep tasting VAs with the gorgeous, delicious maple aroma. I also tried part cube, part rubbed out and it works well as well. I listened to my fellow member's advice and cube cut the rope for smoking and it works very well. ![]() So you're better off waiting for the all the rope to have lost most of its moisture. As this tobacco came very moist, you must have the patience to wait until it's sufficiently dry to smoke it if you slice a coin from a moist rope and just let it dry, it will be tricky for, once packed and lit, the moistness tends to arise again, making it a lot difficult to enjoy as it triggers a lot of relights. The maple essence is more than a toppping but not quite a casing, as it is present on and off throughout the pipeful. The taste of the VAs is very deep, earthy, tasty. Well, I have to say I enjoy this kind of tobacco a lot. ![]() A fellow member on a pipe forum was kind enough to send me a generous sample of Sweet Maple when I showed interest for it. They are quite easier to manage and prepare for smoking. I also have a strong preference for G & H offerings over SG. I have been curious about rope tobaccos for quite a while, I must say. I recommend it unless you have a nicotine aversion and stick to lighter fare. I have not tried mixing a rubbed out coin with anything else, but I suspect that would work well. There is some nicotine in this, but it is not overwhelming. The flavors intensified a little as the bowl progressed, but otherwise stayed constant through the bowl. There was a heavy slightly overripe citrus flavor as well. The flavor in general was very good - an earthy, full tobacco flavor with a slightly tart flavor when puffed. I did not get any maple really in the flavor. It took some BTU's to get it burning, but it smoked well and did not require an unusual number of relights. I rubbed out coins and was careful not to pack them to tightly due to the moisture. The rope is a pretty uniform dark brown with a few flecks of tan in the cross section. The pouch note is a sweet tobacco with a whiff of maple if you are looking for it. ![]() The rope came a little moist, and I sliced it into thin coins on a cutting board in the kitchen. The smoking was very similar to me in terms of flavor and burning characteristics, and so my reviews of these three will repeat themselves. I claim they are very similar and maybe the same rope with a different mild topping for each. If breakfast is your favorite meal of the day, this may well become one of your favorite restaurants.I have samples of Rum, Maple, and Coconut Twist. He was so inspired, after the Chocolate Salon, he bought the same mix of purple, red, and yellow from the Fort Mason Farmers Market. The over-medium eggs he got extra were cooked as per requested, and he got the potatoes extra too since he wanted to try a different kind of breakfast potato he hadn’t before. Sweet, smoky, mildly spicy, and fairly lean for being thick cut, the great flavor lives up to its name. Zach added two strips of millionaire’s bacon. The mild orange flavor wasn’t overly sweet, and pure maple is always a treat. ![]() A crispy outside and fluffy tender center was the ideal mouth feel – not soggy, not dry, not overcooked, and not raw. He chose the inch-thick pain de mie french toast soaked in Grand Marnier batter, sprinkled with cinnamon and powdered sugar, and served with house-made maple butter and pure maple syrup.

She said that was the case and they couldn't cancel it. I asked her to clarify that I would be charged an annual membership fee several days after I canceled as that seemed odd. She told me that I would be billed the annual fee of $39 as it wasn't 10 days before it was due. So I decided to cancel early about 3 days before 1 Dec to be safe and I went to the lady at the front desk and asked to cancel my membership. I had read the terms and services with this annual fee in mind and the only thing in there about canceling talked about a 24-hour notice to cancel (PF terms and service link: ).

In this paper, the molar activation energy Ea and the equilibrium constant K of the aluminum corrosion reaction with various temperatures are calculated. With increasing water temperature, the number of pits and grooves formed by corrosion on the aluminum surface increased. The corrosion products covering the aluminum electrode surface are mainly Al(OH) 3. Therefore, the electrochemical corrosion reaction of the aluminum surface will be accelerated. ![]() When the temperature of deionized water increases, the thermodynamic activity of the ions and dissolved oxygen in the deionized water increases, and the mass transfer process accelerates. The aluminum electrode in 50 ☌ deionized water has the most negative corrosion potential (-0.930 V), the maximum corrosion current (1.115 × 10 -6 A cm -2) and the minimum charge transfer impedance (8.828 × 10 -6 Ω), thus, the aluminum corrosion at this temperature is the most serious. With increasing water temperature, the corrosion current of the aluminum electrode gradually increases and the charge transfer impedance gradually decreases, thus, the corrosion of aluminum tends to become serious. To optimize the operating temperature and flow velocity of cooling water in a high voltage direct current (HVDC) thyristor valve cooling system, the erosion corrosion characteristics of aluminum electrodes in deionized water at various temperatures were studied. ![]() ![]() ![]() If the fixes below don’t work or if your car isn’t on the list, you’ve got other options, says Michael Crossen, Consumer Reports’ mechanic and longtime master technician.
