Abstract: Systems, methods and cartridges for carbonating or otherwise dissolving gas in a precursor liquid, such as water, to form a beverage. A gas source can be provided in a cartridge which is used to generate gas that is dissolved into the precursor liquid. A beverage medium, such as a powdered drink mix or liquid syrup, may be provided in the same, or a separate cartridge as the gas source and mixed with the precursor liquid to form a beverage. The use of one or more cartridges for the gas source and/or beverage medium may make for an easy to use and mess-free system for making sparkling beverages, e.g., in the consumer's home.

Abstract: Systems, methods and cartridges for carbonating a precursor liquid, such as water, to form a beverage. A carbon dioxide source can be provided in a cartridge which is used to generate carbon dioxide gas that is dissolved into the precursor liquid.

Abstract: Articles of footwear (e.g., soft snowboard boots) that include low-profile lace guides that may provide closer and/or tighter wrapping of the quarters about the tongue are disclosed. The lace guide may have a lace channel adapted to guide a force from the lace upon tightening to provide leverage on the lace guide such that the edge of a quarter dives toward the tongue upon tightening of the lace. The lace guide may have a dogleg-shaped region such that a portion of the centerline running through an intermediate portion of the lace channel is disposed at a first height and a portion of the centerline running through the first end portion of the lace channel is disposed at a second height that is different from the first height. The lace guide may extend along a substantial length of a quarter, and thus, it may be beneficial for a single lace guide to have three or more openings configured to receive the lace.

Abstract: Articles of footwear (e.g., soft snowboard boots) that may be tightened from the rear side to enhance heel hold are disclosed. A lace may be coupled to a strap that extends along a portion of the rear side of the boot body. The lace and strap may be arranged such that, upon tightening of the lace, the strap is pulled toward the front side. Tensioning of the lace may cause the lace to be pulled inward so as to exert a normal pressure against the medial and lateral sides of the boot, resulting in the sides being drawn inward toward the shaft region of the boot. The lacing system may employ one or more tightening zones where separate regions of the boot may be tightened independently from, or simultaneously with, one another.
