Over the years, Neatorama's own Jill Harness has collected photos of the world's most beautiful libraries. This one above is the Trinity College Library in Dublin, Ireland:

Aside from being absolutely gorgeous, with two story dark wooden arches, this is also the largest library in all of Ireland. It serves as the country’s copyright library, where a copy of all new books and periodicals must be sent when they apply for copyright protection. The library is also home to the famous Book of Kells, an illuminated manuscript created by Celtic monks around the year 800.

Jill has compiled the list of 61 other amazingly beautiful libraries over at mental_floss. See if your favorite library is listed: Link

"Gluten Free" allows up to 20 parts per million of gluten. To those of us whose sensitivity precludes any gluten whatsoever it is of no value. I prefer the term "No Gluten", which applies to things like apples, oranges, potatoes, rice, nuts, etc.

The funny thing is how they use the term "Natural Flavors" to hide their 20 ppm of gluten. You know there is a bean counter whose company makes a million pounds of product insisting on adding twenty pounds of wheat because "it helps the bottom line and is completely legal".

Anything that says "Made in a facility that also processes wheat" is unsuitable.

The fact that they are trying doesn't mean they are succeeding.
