Albert: I don't really get the reaction with CH3I and OH-. Does that reaction have a name so I can look it up?

No, I don't think it has. To be honest, I think I wrote it not as it ought to: first of all you remove a proton from the derivative of cyclohexanone with a base (that's easy because it yield three limit structures, at least). Then you make it reacting with CH3I: that's an SN2 reaction.
