Scott Lang was an electronic engineer who was unable to support his family, and turned to crime. He was apprehended and sentenced to five years in jail and was released early for good behavior. When he was freed, he began to work at Stark International's design department.
When his daughter was diagnosed with a fatal heart condition, Scott scouted out the help of Dr. Erica Sondheim. She was kidnapped by Darren Cross, because he wanted help with his own heart condition. Lang broke in to the home of Dr. Henry Pym, the first Ant-Man, and stole his technology. He did this to save his daughter and Dr Sondheim. After successfully doing so, Lang attempted to turn himself in, but Pym gave him the suit, but on the condition that he uses it for good.
Multitasking between being a masked vigilante and caring for his daughter, Ant-Man worked with many super heroes/teams such as The Avengers against Taskmaster on two instances. When the Masters of Evil attacked the Avengers and took over the Avengers Mansion, Ant-Man offered his help to the Avengers in defeating the criminal super-team. Also The Fantastic Four hired him as an electronics expert when Mister Fantastic was presumed dead, and he was inducted into the team.
Marvel's Ant Man trailer debut with the Agent Carter premiere. I love the whole look of the movie. I am glad they cast him as Scott Lang/Ant-Man. Paul Rudd is one of my favorite actors and it is a chance for him as an actor to portray a role a little more serious than anything he has done before. Michael Douglas is a great choice for Hank Pym. He is a seasoned actor and I believe he will bring great talent to this movie. The movie also stars Evangeline Lily as Hope Van Dyn whom many in the Marvel fandom believe to be playing The Wasp. Many hope that Ant-Man & Wasp will be in Captain America: Civil War, Avengers III Part I & Part II. Evangeline is also a quality actor having been in Peter Jackson epic Hobbit Trilogy. Corey Stoll is playing the main antagonist, Darren Cross/Yellow Jacket. He is also growing in fame and doing a Marvel movie will be a major career boost for him. His other works include The Strain & House Of Cards.
Ant-Man is the last movie in Marvel's Phase II and releases on the 17th July 2015.

At least 16 killed as train hits bus in Russia
A handout picture released by the Russian Emergency Ministry shows a locomotive and the wreckage of a passenger bus at the collision site near the city of Vladimir, some 110km east of the Russian capital. PHOTO: AFP
https://str.sg/wwKN
MOSCOW (AFP) - At least 16 people were killed on Friday (Oct 6) when a train slammed into a bus that had broken down on a level crossing east of Moscow, authorities said.
The collision occurred before dawn on Friday near the town of Pokrov, some 110km from the Russian capital.
"According to preliminary information, 16 people, including a child, have been killed," Russia's Investigative Committee said.
"Other passengers, including minors, have been taken to hospital with various injuries. The number of dead and injured is being ascertained," the committee said, confirming it had opened an investigation.
The regional interior ministry said the bus broke down on the level crossing.
Uzbekistan's foreign ministry said in a statement that 19 Uzbek nationals had died in the crash, despite the Investigative Committee reporting a lower figure.
The train, travelling at 90kmh from the second city of Saint Petersburg to Nizhny Novgorod, east of Moscow, slammed into the bus at 3.29am (8.29am Singapore time) on Friday.
The train was 400m away from the crossing when the driver slammed on emergency brakes and sounded a warning alarm, but it was not able to stop before it hit the vehicle, Russian Railways said.
ALL VICTIMS ON THE BUS
All of those killed were on the bus, which was carrying 58 people, 56 of them Uzbek nationals.
The remaining two were drivers from Kazakhstan.
"There are no victims among the train passengers," the interior ministry said.
Images from the scene showed the white Mercedes bus had been almost completely torn apart with most of its roof ripped off and debris scattered across the tracks.
The Uzbek ambassador to Russia was on his way to the scene along with other staff from the embassy, it said.
the interior ministry was sending a team of experts to the region to offer assistance.
Millions of migrants from poverty-stricken ex-Soviet countries such as Uzbekistan come to work in Russia. None of the official statements specified what the Uzbek nationals who were killed in the crash were doing in the country.
The foreign ministry of neighbouring Kazakhstan confirmed the two bus drivers, one of whom was killed, were Kazakh nationals.
The train continued on its route at around 11am local time.
The train-bus collision appears to be Russia's most deadly accident involving a train since 2006 when 22 people were killed when a train struck a bus at an unprotected crossing in the southern Krasnodar region.
In 1996, a train hit a school bus in the area of the southern city of Rostov-on-Don, killing 21 children and injuring 19 others. The driver was unable to see the bus early enough to brake because of a heavy fog.
ANOTHER ROAD ACCIDENT
In a separate accident later Friday, at least six people died and about 15 were injured when a bus overturned in a ditch in the Moscow region, a regional interior ministry spokesman told AFP.
Russia's road accident mortality rate is extremely high, although it has been declining over the past few years. Some 20,000 people died in car crashes in the country in 2016.
Seventeen people were killed in August when a bus carrying construction workers veered off a pier and plunged into the Black Sea.

Artists José Clemente Orozco Biography
José Clemente Orozco - Biography and Legacy
Mexican Cartoonist, Printmaker, Painter, and Muralist
Movements and Styles: Mexican Muralism, Social Realism
Born: November 23, 1883 - Zapotlán (now Cuidad Guzmán), Mexico
Died: September 7, 1949 - Mexico City, Mexico
Orozco, one of four brothers, spent his first years in the southwestern region of Jalisco, Mexico. His father had a soap, ink, and coloring factory in addition to being an editor for the newspaper, La Abeja. His mother was a housewife who occasionally gave the women of the community painting classes. The family moved first to Guadalajara and then Mexico City in the hopes of improving their financial situation. Despite their efforts, however, the times were not easy for middle-class families and it was often difficult for the family to make ends meet.
On his way to and from school the young Orozco would pass by the shop where José Guadalupe Posada - a politically engaged cartoonist famous for his images of skulls and skeletons - worked in full-view from the street. Fascinated, Orozco started to experiment with drawing and coloring, later recalling the experience of watching Posada work as an "awakening" to the existence of art. He began to take evening drawing classes.
Later, he was urged (forced, rather) to study agricultural engineering for the sake of financial security. It was only after his father's death that Orozco became fully committed to pursuing an artistic career. A remarkable decision considering he had lost his left hand after manipulating fireworks for Independence Day celebrations in 1904. Since most doctors were on holiday, by the time treatment was available for the injury, gangrene had taken over and it had become necessary to amputate his entire hand.
Orozco studied full-time at the San Carlos Academy from 1906-14, and participated at the 1911 student's strike along with fellow student and future muralist David Alfaro Siqueiros. It was in night classes at the Academy where Orozco met Dr. Atl (Gerardo Murillo), the slightly older artist who frequently shared captivating stories of his adventures in Europe. Dr. Atl was a fervent advocate of promoting a distinctively Mexican art and was opposed to copying the European style that was a requisite activity in the Academy. It was with the confidence that Dr. Atl instilled in his young students that Orozco began experimenting with Mexican landscapes and introducing familiarly vibrant colors into his paintings. It was the seed that developed into the artistic emancipation of Mexico.
Early Period
In the early years of his artistic career, Orozco worked as a caricaturist for various oppositional newspapers. He landed a solo exhibition of his watercolors depicting female prostitutes and men past their prime, poignantly entitled "The House of Tears." Perhaps as a mirror to his own struggles, Orozco's focus on human suffering was a predominant theme in his early work. Despite this recognition of his artistic merit, Orozco found himself painting dolls to pay the bills.
During the violent battles of the Mexican Revolution, Orozco worked as an illustrator for a pro-Carranza newspaper called La Vanguardia. He witnessed the carnage of the Revolution first-hand, an experience that would forever mark his work and heavily contribute to a pessimistic outlook on life. He said of the Revolution: "The world was torn apart around us. Troop convoys passed on their way to slaughter ... Trains back from the battlefield unloaded their cargoes in the station in Orizaba: the wounded; the tired; exhausted, mutilated soldiers, sweating and tatterdemalion. In the world of politics it was the same, war without quarter, struggle for power and wealth. Factions and sub-factions were past counting, the thirst for vengeance insatiable" Unlike Rivera and Siqueiros, the other two famous muralists who, along with Orozco, made up the avant-garde muralists known as "Los tres grandes" (The Three Greats), Orozco was an anarchist. He was vehemently anti-institution, anti-military, anti-clerical, anti-establishment, and so forth, because he felt these institutions were all inevitably and inherently corrupt.
Orozco took up residence in the United States from 1917 to 1919, working mainly as a sign-painter first in San Francisco, and then in New York. He met with Siqueiros one night as the latter was on his way to Europe and went to dinner along with Xavier Guerrero, where they argued profusely about the future of art in Mexico. In 1920, he returned to Mexico, where he received his first public commission at the National Preparatory School as part of the new government's plan to broadcast its messages of a modern Mexican identity.
He married Margarita Valladares in 1923 and the couple had three children. In the following years, Orozco's colleagues in the arts admired him greatly. Despite the praise from this small intellectual elite, however, Orozco was generally underappreciated in his country. He left his family in 1927 to work in the United States, where he witnessed the effects of the Great Depression first-hand. He befriended the journalist and arts patron Alma Reed, who had fallen in love with a Mexican governor on a work trip to Mexico only to discover he had been murdered during the Revolution while she returned to the US for the wedding preparations. Alma Reed invited Orozco to her intellectual soirees and showed his work in her house. On one of these evenings, the Greek Orthodox patriarch in New York saw in Orozco's work the greatness of classical antiquity and crowned him with a symbolic laurel wreath. During his stay in the US, he painted some of his most famous murals in Pomona, the New School, Dartmouth, and the Museum of Modern Art.
Mature Period
In 1932 Orozco traveled to Europe for the first time, visiting all the compulsory museum destinations. He returned to Mexico as a greatly respected artist and painted his masterpiece at the Hospicio Cabanas in Guadalajara, hailed as the "Sistine Chapel of the Americas," and eventually named a UNESCO World Heritage site.
A testament to his technical virtuosity, Orozco would apply paint directly onto the wall in the notoriously unforgiving fresco technique without sketching the mural beforehand. His preparatory sketches were made solely on paper, never on the mural itself. He was known to be a taciturn man, generally preferring his own company and quiet work in his studio, an almost binary opposite to the garrulous personality of his friend and sometimes rival, Diego Rivera.
Around 1943, Orozco met the prima ballerina of the Mexico City Ballet, Gloria Campobello, for whom he left his first wife. The couple lived together in New York until 1946, when Campobello ended the relationship abruptly. He then returned to Mexico to live alone.
Later Period
Orozco's oeuvre from the 1940s included many portraits and a series of anti-clerical and anti-military paintings. In 1946, he was awarded the national Prize for his murals in the Church of the Hospital of Jesus. In 1947, he illustrated Nobel prize-winning author John Steinbeck's book, The Pearl, at Steinbeck's request. That same year he had a major retrospective exhibition in Mexico's most important museum, the Palacio de Bellas Artes.
Orozco's numerous self-portraits enable us to understand his personality. He depicts himself as an intellectual and a dour man of intense reflection. His eyes have the piercing hardness of a witness inured to some of the most horrid aspects of our species. One can picture him enraged or melancholy but is hard pressed to find any joy in his countenance. Indeed, Octavio Paz remarked "Orozco never smiled in his life". He completed his last fresco in 1949. He died of heart failure in his sleep, aged 65.
Orozco's views on the Mexican Revolution differed radically from those of Diego Rivera and David Alfaro Siqueiros. Unlike the idealistic Rivera or the belligerent Siqueiros, Orozco had a deeply cynical regard for the revolution; he was disturbed by the extensive bloodshed and death toll, and skeptical of the potential of the protracted upheaval to benefit those who it seemed clear would suffer regardless of which forces prevailed. Orozco's focus from his earliest works onward centered on human suffering, no doubt a byproduct of the hardships he had suffered and witnessed in his own life. He had a notorious inability to connect with others on a one-to-one basis but showed tremendous empathy for humanity as a whole. Perhaps ironically, his greatest legacy is to have challenged the very nationalist sentiment that provided him with longstanding renown.
The artists inspired by Orozco range from the Mexican painter, sculptor and poet, Gustavo Arias Murueta, to Joan Mitchell, Rico Lubrun, Eleanor Coen, and Luis Nishizawa. Furthermore, an early phase of Jackson Pollock, when he was undergoing therapy with a Jungian doctor, is influenced by Orozco's work. In fact, Pollock and Philip Guston travelled together on an artistic pilgrimage to see Orozco's Epic of American Civilization. Pollock also declared Prometheus the greatest contemporary painting in North America.

"Painting assails the mind, it persuades the heart"
"Painting in its higher form and painting as a minor folk art differ essentially in this: the former has invariable universal traditions from which no one can separate himself [...] the latter has purely local traditions." [As opposed to Rivera and Siqueiros' view].
"[Murals] cannot be hidden away for the benefit of the privileged few."
"A painting is a poem and nothing else."
"The mural is the highest, most rational, purest, and most powerful form of painting [....] It is also the most disinterested form since it can neither be turned into a source of private profit nor hidden away for the enjoyment of a privileged few. It is for the people. For everybody."
"All aesthetics, of whatever kind, are a movement forward and not backward... An artwork is never negative. By the very fact of being an artwork, it is constructive."
"In every painting, as in any other work of art, there is always an idea, never a story. The idea is the point of departure, the first cause of the plastic construction, and it is present all the time as energy-creating matter."
"José Clemente Orozco, along with the popular engraver, Jose Guadalupe Posada, is the greatest artist, whose work expresses genuinely the character and the spirit of the people of the City of Mexico. [...] Profoundly sensual, cruel, moralistic, and rancorous as a good, semi-blond descendent of Spaniards, he has the force and mentality of a servant of the Holy Office [...] in all his work one feels the simultaneous presence of love, of pain and of death."
"Artists don't have any 'political convictions' of any kind. And if they believe they have them, they are not artists."
[On his life] "There is nothing of special interest in it, no famous exploits or heroic deeds, no extraordinary or miraculous happenings. Only the uninterrupted and tremendous effort of a Mexican painter to learn his trade and find opportunities to practice it."

Hyperhidrosis is the medical term for excessive sweating and is largely the result of overactive sweat glands. It is a relatively common condition effecting approximately 3% of the population, however if left untreated may lead to psychological, emotional and social distress.
Hyperhidrosis can occur at multiple sites on the body, however is most commonly seen in the hands, feet and underarms.
Topical or oral medications such as anti-cholnergic drugs may be prescribed to inhibit the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS), reducing the body's ability to sweat.
Injecting Botulinum Toxin Type-A (Botox) is another simple and increasingly popular method of treatment for severe underarm sweating. By injecting the sweat glands directly, the areas responsible for the production and release of sweat are inhibited with no interference to the body's natural regulation systems or nerves. Botox treatment for hyperhidrosis has shown to have approximately 6-12 months longevity.
Endoscopic Thoracic Sympathectomy (ETS) is a procedure employed when other primary treatment options have not proven successful or are unsuitable. During the procedure, the sympathetic nerve trunk is cut, switching off the signals that initiate the body's sweat response. While this method can be effective in eliminating the condition, this permanent surgical procedure is used as a last resort and is best discussed thoroughly with your doctor before proceeding.

Il concerto per pianoforte e orchestra n. 2 Op. 83 in Si bemolle maggiore, portato a termine nel 1881, per la sua difficoltà tecnica e la sua scrittura non ortodossa è considerato uno dei più difficili di tutto il repertorio concertistico correntemente eseguito (assieme al secondo concerto di Prokof'ev e il terzo concerto di Rachmaninov). Il solista e l'orchestra sono uniti in un dialogo sempre assai teso ed espressivo, in un crescendo profondamente romantico e l'esecutore deve superare alcune delle difficoltà più ardue che si conoscano nella letteratura pianistica.

Storia
Dedicato al suo caro amico e maestro Eduard Marxsen, che era stato guida solerte degli studi di Brahms ad Amburgo, il concerto venne composto a più di vent'anni di distanza dal precedente Concerto per pianoforte e orchestra in re minore (op. 15), dal quale è profondamente diverso nell'impianto e nel carattere dei temi, che riecheggiano melodie del folklore tedesco.

Analisi del Concerto
Il concerto è articolato in quattro tempi, in luogo dei tre tradizionali.

I - Allegro non troppo
Si bemolle maggiore

Le prime note dell'"Allegro non troppo" introducono un trasognato tema dei corni. A questo subentra ben presto il travaglio della passione: la delicatezza dei fiati e del piano incipienti sono turbati da un improvviso cambio di scena e dalla repentina drammatizzazione dei toni.

II - Allegro appassionato
Re minore

L'"Allegro appassionato" inquieta ulteriormente l'atmosfera del brano, dando la stura ad una dicotomia agitata e vibrante tra pianoforte e orchestra che trasportano l'uditorio in un itinerario di continua esagitazione e concitazione emozionale.

III - Andante
Si bemolle maggiore

Scenari ancora più drammatici si addensano fino alla pace dei toni nell'aprirsi della quiete portata dall'"Andante", ammansito dall'ipnosi di un violoncello che, successivamente, si esibisce in un duetto in crescendo con il pianoforte, fino all'arrivo, di nuovo, alla calma delle note iniziali.

IV - Allegretto grazioso
Si bemolle maggiore

Con l'"Allegretto grazioso" un'inconsueta aria di allegria investe il brano, con un rapido susseguirsi di festosi temi che sembrano giustapposti in forma di rondò allo scopo di controbilanciare la melanconia e insieme l'inquietudine drammaticamente appassionata dei precedenti movimenti.

In classic, mid-century modern style, the Avery loveseat displays straight lines and a slim silhouette, which is beautifully balanced by plump seat and back cushions. Wrapped in a soft and lush velvet-like upholstery, finishing details include piping that trims the piece in the same color, while the tapered solid hardwood legs punctuate this attractive design. Two matching bolsters are included.


But Giant King Grass offers other potential applications and benefits, over and above its value as a uniquely practical and affordable source of green electricity. It can also be used as a feedstock for other biofuels and biochemicals. Companies have already independently and successfully tested GKG for ethanol production, including well-known companies in the ethanol business. The results show that a ton of Giant King Grass is just as good as a ton of corn stover, a traditional feed stock, in terms of its sugar content, perhaps better, and GKG is not a food crop. In addition, The National Renewable Energy Laboratory has identified 12 important chemical building blocks that can be made from the sugars in cellulosic biomass like Giant King Grass. The high yield of Giant King Grass means that it will be a low-cost feedstock for these processes as well.
In addition, bio-methane can be produced from Giant King Grass using proven and widely-used anaerobic digestion and by second-generation gasification technology. Bio-methane is the "green" energy equivalent of methane, the principal component of natural gas which is widely used for heating, cooking, electricity generation, and as a vehicle fuel.

Rusty Pacemaker is a multi-instrumentalist from Austria and "Blackness And White Light" is his debut album. Playing lots of guitars, bass, keyboards and even singing, this album almost is a true solo effort – except for drums and female guest vocals. Let's see what he created here.
Chirping birds open the album but soon a door closes and distorted guitars take the lead. The opening track 'Cell' already is the best song of the album with a hypnotic rhythm and a guitar sound that reminds me of late 80s gothic rock. This sound is featured throughout the whole album as well as Rusty's somehow psychedelic and sadly quite German sounding English vocals. But the song ideas are what it's all about here. Always dominated by distorted guitars the songs are powerful and dark every time. As I said the style is somewhere between gothic rock and doom metal, sometimes featuring neo-folk elements.
However, what lets the album down is the bad and hollow sounding production, leaving the album sounding very dated. Well, it is a home-made recording but nowadays a good sound quality isn't a monetary question any more. There almost isn't any bass power at all, as if the lower frequencies have been cut off and the music really suffers from this.
So in the end the rather good song ideas suffer from the weak production – and the vocals could be better too, but they might be crucial for the style Rusty Pacemaker aims at. Anyway – it's a mixed start with definite signs of promise but let down by mediocre production.

Before St. Paul gets urban park, flower…
Before St. Paul gets urban park, flower experiment to bloom
Pedro Park's landscaped swirl, at 10th and Robert streets, is under construction in this 2014 image. (Pioneer Press: Frederick Melo)
By Frederick Melo | fmelo@pioneerpress.com | Pioneer Press

The city of St. Paul is still looking for up to $10 million to complete a new downtown park that would fulfill a promise made to the site's former owners.
In the meantime, University of St. Thomas researchers plan to test a few theories on soil remediation that will combine art, science and civic engagement in a two-year experiment.
Located at the former home of Pedro's Luggage, Pedro Park is still mostly a dirt lot at 10th and Robert streets. But city officials have enlisted a small army of partners to plant 96 flower gardens in an elaborate design and host activities there. The site occupies a third of the block in plain view of the Rossmor lofts building, the new Penfield apartment complex and the Lunds grocery.
The two-year arts and science experiment does not fulfill the city's agreement with the Pedro family to build an urban park, but it nevertheless promises to add color and vibrancy to an empty urban plot — though not overnight.
"It's going to be an evolving space over the course of the growing season," said University of St. Thomas biology professor Adam Kay. "Patterns are going to emerge as the growing season progresses."
The $40,000 "Urban Flower Field" strategy is mostly funded by Public Art St. Paul, with the city kicking in less than $10,000. The project has involved planting eight species of flowers and various native grasses to test whether different combinations of plants suck out soil pollutants at different rates.
The flower plots are creatively arranged in a spiral design to allow for walking paths and a gathering space for neighborhood activities. As backdrop, artist Ed Charbonneau has created a large orange-and-yellow mural that decorates a bordering wall of the public safety annex building and is visible to drivers entering the city from Interstate 94.
Native grasses line the paths and alleyways, and raspberry bushes have been planted near the mural.
"All the plantings have been done and most of the landscaping has been done," said city artist-in-residence Amanda Lovelee, who designed the project with St. Paul Parks and Recreation. "The grass seed is starting to pop up. Once the flowers bloom, that corner is going to be electrified with color."
Kay is working on the "bioremediation" project with 12 students from the University of St. Thomas Department of Environmental Sciences, who are on site daily.
"We're actually conducting undergraduate research in the context of this art project," said Kay, who is working most closely with undergraduate project leaders Elizabeth Scherber and Hunter Gaitan.
"They're going to be collecting data over the summer to test their ideas," Kay said. "We're used to doing this research out in remote replaces, but finding this collaboration allows us to do the same sort of research in an area where we can engage with the community."
Two interns from the Minneapolis College of Art and Design also have been assigned to the site. Community volunteers plan to plant, weed and water, and a free yoga and Pilates fusion session begins in July. Black Sheep Pizza is working with Lovelee to produce an outdoor film night.
The city is inviting residents to come by from 9:30 to 11:30 a.m. June 28 to drink lemonade, meet their neighbors and paint rocks that will be placed in the "urban flower field." Participants who attend the "Grow Your Community" event will receive a wooden token for $5 toward a Black Sheep pizza.
Residents of nearby apartments and condos have been clamoring for more green space for years. The request culminated in the Fitzgerald Park Precinct Plan, which was added to the city's Comprehensive Plan in 2006.

Dead zones - areas of water so starved of oxygen that most marine life cannot survive there - are spreading. At the last count, there were 405 such zones worldwide, covering 245,000 square kilometers (94,600 square miles) - or an area slightly larger than the United Kingdom.
In summer 2017, a dead zone in the Gulf of Mexico is set to approach more than 20,700 square kilometers - the largest expanse ever recorded there. The Baltic Sea dead zone has grown to 60,000 square kilometers in recent years.
Such low oxygen areas can occur naturally but scientists believe human activities trigger or worsen them. Excess runoff from farms and sewage systems rich in nitrogen and phosphorus can stimulate huge algal blooms. When the algae die, they decompose, sucking up oxygen as they sink to the bottom.
In the case of the Gulf of Mexico dead zone, manure and fertilizer used in the production of huge amounts of corn and soy for animal feed are largely to blame, according to a report by environmental group Mighty Earth. The group named Tyson Foods, America's largest meat company, as one of the biggest culprits.
Increasing water temperatures due to climate change are exacerbating the problem too, say scientists.
This, of course, is all bad news for the fishing industry and it can also affect beachgoers, with some seafronts being closed down due to the pollution and stench.
Expansion of dead zones in our already overburdened oceans isn't inevitable. Scientists say the Gulf of Mexico's annual dead zone could be reduced significantly with a 59-percent drop in the amount of runoff flowing into the Mississippi River, for instance. But this will require swift action from lawmakers and industry.


One thing I love best about Weight Watchers is the flexibility: I don't have to give any of my favorite foods up, I just have to figure out a way to make them fit into my daily and weekly points plan. Every once in awhile I will go for the real deal, like that one time I pretty much hoarded all of my points for popcorn at the film festival. Those plans always sound good in theory, but never in practice. Especially now that I know the Quaker Oats cheddar cheese popped rice snacks taste strikingly similar to buttered popcorn.
Another time I, well, starved myself for a piece of pizza. Again, sounded good at the time but in the end, eh, not really worth it. So now, when I get that pizza craving I try and get creative. Like with the English Muffin pizzas my mom used to make. A few weeks ago, though, I decided to try something different and came up with my own pizza hot pocket!
What you'll need: Pita Pocket, Tomato/Spaghetti Sauce, and whatever fixins you want. The "toppings" for your pizza pocket are the fun part because it's completely up to you! Maybe you like shrooms and olives on your pizza or wanna throw some pepperoni slices on there. Sky's the limit.
I went with Prego's Fresh Mushroom sauce, the Italian Herb pocket thins pita, and for toppings mini sweet peppers (like baby bell peppers) and one light string cheese stick.
Open the pocket and put some sauce on one side of the pita pocket. I used 2 T. but use as much or as little as you want. Next comes your toppings. As you can see, I really do treat this like a real pizza: sauce, cheese, then my chopped up bell peppers in that order.
Once you have all of your fillers in there, put the pocket your machine of choice. I used my good ol' George Foreman, but a panini press or even a waffle iron would probably work. If nothing else, just treat it like a grilled cheese sandwich and use a skillet, flipping it when the one side is done.
This particular pizza pocket was just under 200 calories and 4 Weight Watchers Points Plus. Obviously your own creation may change depending on what toppings you use and how much sauce or cheese, etc. Either way, it's most likely going to come in way under a regular ol' slice of pizza, but you'll still get that warm sauce, melted cheese, and favorite toppings. Plus you get total control over how much of everything you want AND you know exactly what's going into it.
What I love best about this is all of the variations available. If you're feeding family or friends, each pizza pocket can be up to the individual so everyone gets exactly what they like (instead of trying to decide one type of pizza that will satisfy everyone). It would even be a fun spin on a Taco Bar if you set out all of the options in little bowls and each person gets to make their own!
What are some of your ways of adapting a favorite food into something a little more waist line friendly?
Oh sis! I love this idea! Yum.
Super tasty 🙂 Let me know if you try it!
Yum looks good, I will have to try this!
This looks so good. That's one of the reasons why I went back to WW. I like the flexibility. For me removing foods made me want them more. It's about balance.
Right? As soon as I did it I wondered why I had never thought of it before.
Exactly. I can't completely eliminate foods so I just have to find a way to make them work.
Yum! We did a pizza night like this with my cousins a few weeks ago and it was a hit. I love your idea of using the cheese stick, though– that sounds MUCH less messy. There was shredded cheese all over my house after our pizza pocket night!


The US decision to launch a Section 301 investigation against China over trade has renewed concerns that a trade war might break out between the world's two largest economies Men's Nike Air Max 270 Flyknit Oreo Black White Cheap , but Chinese experts on Sunday played down the scenario.
However, following the US move, which is aimed at addressing the trade imbalance with China, the bilateral trade relationship will face rising hurdles and China should be fully prepared to face more trade remedies from the US in the future, experts warned.
US Trade Representative Robert Lighthizer on Friday formally initiated an investigation into China's intellectual property practices under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974.
The probe comes after US President Donald Trump on Tuesday signed an executive memorandum authorizing Lighthizer to determine whether China's practices harm US intellectual property rights Women's Nike Air Max 270 Triple White Cheap , innovation or technological development.
"The investigation will seek to determine whether acts, policies, and practices of the government of China related to technology transfer, intellectual property, and innovation are unreasonable or discriminatory and burden or restrict US commerce Men's Nike Air Max 270 Triple Black Cheap ," the Office of the United States Trade Representative said in a statement on its website.
Though the probe centers on the issues of technological intellectual property, Chinese experts said the US is using it to pressure China into tackling the bilateral trade imbalance.
"The US investigation is primarily aimed at addressing the country's long-running trade deficit with China. The US hopes to impose pressure on China in order to protect its own manufacturing industry and improve American employment," Wang Jun, a deputy director of the Department of Information at the China Center for International Economic Exchanges, told the Global Times Sunday.
China's trade surplus with the US reached $25.2 billion in July Cheap Nike Air Max 270 KPU TPU Men's Blue Green , official data showed on August 8.
Another motive behind the move could be that the Trump administration is seeking to draw attention away from domestic US problems by focusing on China, said He Weiwen, an executive council member at the China Society for the WTO.
The Trump administration wants to use China as a "scapegoat" as the US government has "made enemies" domestically as well as globally following various controversial policies and the decision to abandon the Paris Agreement on climate change, He told the Global Times Sunday.
"To make China a scapegoat is easy. It's not only Trump who has done this; other US politicians have also tried it in previous years," according to He. "The investigation has been long plotted by the US government Cheap Nike Air VaporMax Plus KPU TPU Men's White Black ," he said.
Experts said that the US probe is unlikely to trigger a full-blown trade war between the two countries and will not have a substantial negative impact on the bilateral economic and trade relationship in the short term, but it is still a worrying sign.
"Trade disputes between China and the US will rise in the future and the US is likely to employ more forms of measures against China [in trade]," Wang noted.
The US launched 11 trade remedy probes into Chinese products in the first half of this year, accounting for about 30 percent of the total investigations that China faced from around the world, according to China's Ministry of Commerce (MOFCOM).
China should be fully prepared for the effects of the US probe Cheap Nike Air VaporMax Flyknit Men's Grey Silver , not only in trade, but also in terms of pressure on the currency exchange rate, He said.
Wang noted that China would like to use negotiations to resolve such problems instead of launching harsh trade restrictions against the US. "China will not ban imports from the US nor raise tariffs on US products."
Also, He suggested, China could use WTO rules to seek arbitration because the US move to apply a domestic law to an international matter violates the WTO's rules.
Section 301 Cheap Women's Nike Air Vapormax 2018 Shoes Grey Pink , which was passed in 1974, allows the US president to impose tariffs or other trade restrictions against foreign countries. But it also represents unilateral action and is generally opposed by other countries, MOFCOM said Tuesday.
BERLIN, Aug. 16 (Xinhua) -- German Chancellor Angela Merkel Wednesday reaffirmed the goal of 1 million electric cars running on German roads by 2020.
"I have not pulled it back. I said that we have to do more, otherwise we would not be able to make it Cheap Men's Nike Air Vapormax 2018 Shoes Grey Green ," Merkel said when she was asked whether she had given up the target during an interview with netizens on the YouTube.
Merkel said in May that "as it looks at the moment, we will not achieve that goal," a statement interpreted as a sign that the chancellor had already given up the goal.
In addition to her reaffirmation, Merkel in the interview called for an expansion of the infrastructure for electric cars, such an increase in loading sites and more charging stations in car parking houses and streets.
The spokesman of German federal government Steffcert reacted later to Merkel's statement Cheap Men's Nike Air Vapormax 2018 Shoes Blue , saying that a very rapid rise in the number is possible in the field of new technologies.
At the moment, less than 100,000 electric cars are running on German roads.

Q: Docker find all layers in an image Docker has changed it's backend and now the "docker history" command no longer shows layer IDs of all layers in an image. More details here: https://github.com/docker/docker/issues/20131
Although I understand why it's showing "missing", I still havent found a new way to extract the information I'm looking for. Does anyone know how I can find all the layers in an image? I'd like to be able to cross-reference layers over different images so that I know when a certain layer is used by more than once service, which is why I used the ID shown in the history command up until recentely.
Any help is appreciated, thank you.

I love the look of the shell stitch and this Sea Shell Stitch Crochet Baby Blanket is tops.. The pattern is well written and easy to understand and follow.

Won't open the pattern. Says not available.
Hi, I just tried to open the link to the pattern and it's working fine. If you are using your smartphone to access the pattern, I doubt if you can because there are a lot of features that a smartphone cannot access.
I have made this several times with different colors and am surprised that it is in the "intermediate" category. It was an easy pattern for me and always turns out beautiful. In fact I am working on another one now, using 5 different colors! I really appreciate the people who make these available to us and I know the recipients appreciate them as well! Thank you!

'The Office': Where Are They Now?
Updated on April 4, 2019
Brittany Brown
Brittany is pop culture enthusiast! She loves writing about celebrities, TV shows, films, music, and more!
Where is the cast of The Office (US) now?
I truly believe that The Office will go down in history as one of the best sitcoms of all-time. The show is an American adaptation of the BBC series of the same name (written and developed originally by Ricky Gervais and Stephan Merchant), and ran on NBC for nine seasons from 2005 to 2013.
The series took a look at the lives of the employees of a humble paper company, Dunder Mifflin, which was located in the fictional town of Scranton, Pennsylvania. The show was filmed in the style of a documentary (which was explained in the show as being a PBS documentary about the American workplace), giving us a look at the character's work, love lives, families, friendships, and more.
Many of the show's huge ensemble cast has gone on to major success in Hollywood, but where is the rest of The Office cast now?
Steve Carell as Michael Scott in Season 1 of The Office. | Source
As the show's main character and boss, Michael Scott, Steve Carell was obviously the breakout star of The Office. Michael Scott was the boss that everyone would both hate and love to have; he was both cringe-worthy and endearing at the same time, and you couldn't help but eventually fall in love with the character. Though Carell bowed out of the show before it ended in 2011, he did return for the finale in 2013, which gave us a heartfelt peak at Michael Scott's life after leaving Scranton and settling down with his wife, Holly.
Since departing the show in 2011, Carell has had a highly successful film career. He's starred in tons of Hollywood blockbusters, including Crazy, Stupid, Love (2011), Foxcatcher (2014), The Big Short (2015), Café Society (2016), Battle of the Sexes (2017), Welcome to Marwen (2018) and has voiced the character of Gru in the Despicable Me and Minions films since 2010.
Carell is married to actress Nancy Carrel (who had a cameo on the show as Michael Scott's former real-estate agent and ex-girlfriend, Carol), and they have two children together.
Steve Carell now! | Source
John Krasinski as Jim Halpert in Season 1 of The Office. | Source
John Krasinski brought lots of humour to the show as paper salesman Jim Halpert. Though his "will-they-or-won't-they" romance with Pam Beasley (Jenna Fischer) was most of Jim's storylines, he also played a big part in the office's overall dynamics with his friendly feud with Dwight, character progression from underachiever to eventual assistant manager, and hilarious facial expressions (*stares into the camera*).
After The Office ended, Krasinski went on to have a successful career in both film and television. He acted in Aloha (2015) and 13 Hours: The Secret Soldiers of Benghazi (2016). He can currently be seen in the Amazon political drama, Jack Ryan. In 2018, he received critical and commercial acclaim for directing, writing, producing and starring in the horror film, A Quiet Place, alongside his wife, actress, Emily Blunt. A spin-off film set in the same universe (but not focusing on the same family) is set to be released in 2020.
Krasinski and Blunt have been married since 2010, and have two daughters.
John Krasinski now!
Jenna Fischer as Pam Beasley in Season 1 of The Office.
Jenna Fischer played everyone's favourite receptionist, Pam Beesly, on the show. Again, while her relationship with Jim was most of the focus during the show's nine season run, Pam also had plenty of storylines about her dreams of being an artist, her life as a mother, and her friendships with the other office staff (particularly Michael Scott).
Since The Office ended, Fischer has had a pretty quiet career, staring in a few films, including Hall Pass (2011) and Are You Here (2013). She can currently be seen on the ABC comedy, Splitting Up Together.
Fischer is married to screenwriter Lee Kirk (she also starred in The Giant Mechanical Man in 2012, which was directed by Kirk); together, they have two children.
Jenna Fischer now!
Rainn Wilson on The Office
The Office was so great at giving us nuanced characters; people you really disliked, but also grew fond of, people who annoyed you, but you had a soft spot for. I think Rainn Wilson's portrayal of Dwight Schrute perfectly falls into that description- Dwight was at all times an obnoxious, nerdy, pretentious, suck-up…but he was also surprisingly sweet, kind, caring and heartfelt. Wilson's depiction of him really allowed us to feel like Dwight was a real person whom we all loved to hate.
Since The Office ended, Wilson has acted in the sci-fi film, Uncanny (2015), horror movie, The Boy (2015), and sci-fi shark flick, The Meg (2018). He starred in the only season of Fox's crime comedy-drama, Backstrom (2015), and has had a recurring guest role on Star Trek: Discovery since 2017. Wilson also voices the roles of Rattleballs and Peacemaster on Cartoon Network's animated comedy, Adventure Time.
Wilson has been married since 1995 and has one son. He and his family split their time between their homes in Los Angeles, California and Sisters, Oregon.
Rainn Wilson now!
Ed Helms on The Office
Andy Bernard started on the show as one of the transplants from the Stamford branch of Dunder Mifflin, finagled his way into the role of Regional Manager of the Scranton office, before finally resigning and taking back his old job as a paper salesman. Ed Helms was perfect in his role as Cornell-loving, a-capella singing, and incredibly insecure salesman, Andy Bernard.
The show definitely catapulted Helm's career- most people still know him from The Hangover film series- but he's done quite a bit of work since The Office ended. He's starred in They Came Together (2014), the 2015 reboot of the National Lampoon films, Vacation, Love the Coopers (2015), and Tag (2018).
Helms is also in a bluegrass band called The Lonesome Trio; he plays banjo, guitar and piano.
Ed Helms now!

B.J. Novak
We all know Mindy Kaling as the lovable Kelly Kapoor, but she was also one of the writers, executive producers, and directors of the show, too! Since the show's end, Kaling has gone on to have a very successful career; starring in her own Fox comedy, The Mindy Project from 2012-2017, and starring in films like A Wrinkle in Time (2018) and Ocean's 8 (2018). Kaling has also released two memoirs, the latter of which, Why Not Me (2015) debuted at No. 1 on the New York Times best-seller list.
Ellie Kemper was another breakout star from The Office. She played receptionist Erin Hannon on the show until 2013, but went on to star in her own Netflix comedy, Unbreakable Kimmy Schmidt from 2015-2019. She's also appeared in several films including Sex Tape in 2014 and They Came Together (also released in 2014), which she acted alongside fellow Office co-star, Ed Helms.
Darryl Philbin moved from the warehouse to the office, and Craig Robinson's portrayal of the hilarious and business-savvy worker made him one of the favourites amongst the fandom. Since The Office, Robinson has acted in several films, including This is the End (2013), Get On Up (2014), Table 19 (2017) and comedy-drama, Morris from America (2016), which received critical acclaim and led to a Special Jury Prize win at the 2016 Sundance Film Festival awards for Robinson. Robinson has had guest roles on sitcoms Brooklyn Nine-Nine and Mr. Robot. He also starred and produced the sitcoms Mr. Robinson (one season, 2015), and Ghosted (one season, 2017).
While B.J. Novak was most known for playing "wunderkind" Ryan Howard, on the show, he also served as one of the writers and executed producers of The Office. After the show's end, Novak had guest roles on The Mindy Project and The Newsroom. He also had cameos on Crazy-Ex Girlfriend and Community. Novak and Kaling (who dated on-and-off and real life, just like their Office counterparts) announced that they signed a book deal together in 2015 to write a memoir about their friendship and relationship, though no release date for the book has been set.
Since his role of Stanley Hudson ended, Leslie David Baker has had a relatively quiet career. He's had guest roles on shows like Key & Peele, The Exes and Raven's Home. He also had a voice role in the children's film, Captain Underpants: The First Epic Movie (2017), which co-starred fellow Office alum, Ed Helms.
We'll never forget Kevin Malone, but Brian Baumgartner has also had guest roles in Hot in Cleveland, Melissa & Joey, and Chicago Fire, since The Office's end.
She was our favourite office boozer as Meredith Palmer. Since The Office ended, Kate Flannery has had guest roles on TV shows like Brooklyn Nine-Nine, American Housewife, Young Sheldon, and also voices the character of Barb Miller on animated series, Steven Universe.
Cat lover and everything-else-hater, Angela Martin, was portrayed perfectly by Angela Kinsey. Since the show's end, she's had a starring role in Hulu's comedy series, The Hotwives of Orlando, was a series regular on the Netflix comedy, Haters Back Off, and had guest appearances on shows like The Real O'Neals, Fresh off the Boat, and Miracle Workers.
Who didn't love the character of Oscar? Since the show ended, Oscar Nunez has been seen on several sitcoms, including New Girl, Brooklyn Nine-Nine¸ Shameless and People of Earth.
Phyllis Smith and Creed Bratton haven't done much acting since the end of The Office. Smith most notable voiced the character of Sadness in the 2015 Pixar film, Inside Out, while Bratton has made guest appearances on Netflix comedy, Grace and Frankie, and acted in the 2018 western, The Sisters Brothers.
An Office Reunion?

It seems like the cast of The Office are all still pretty close, with several of the actors appearing on each other's projects, posting pictures together on social media, and spending time together off-screen, but what about an official reunion of The Office or a reboot?
The cast seem pretty split about it. Steve Carrel has said that he wouldn't partake in any sort of reunion or remake for pretty sentimental reasons; according to him, there's just no way to recreate the magic of the original show. Carell even joked about a reunion or reboot when he starred on Saturday Night Live in November 2018; Ellie Kemper, Jenna Fischer and Ed Helms all showed up during the monologue to convince him to do a reboot.
The rest of the cast members seem open about it, though. John Krasinski and Kemper are both on board for a one-off Christmas special that has a "where are they now?" look at all the former characters. The former cast mates also sparked reboot rumors in December 2018, when Rainn Wilson, Jenna Fischer, Ed Helms, Brian Baumgartner, Leslie David Baker, Phyllis Smith, Oscar Nunez, Creed Bratton, Angela Kinsey, and Paul Liebertsein (Toby), gathered together for brunch at the home of Greg Daniels (the man responsible for developing and adapting the American version of the show).
There have been rumours since 2017 that NBC has been working on a The Office reboot, but nothing has come to fruition yet.
Would you watch a reboot or reunion special of The Office?

I know that Rainn Wilson is one of the older cast members of this show, but check that marriage date for him. I'm guessing you meant 1995.

Q: SQL query return what's NOT in table
Possible Duplicate:
SQL: find missing IDs in a table
getting values which dont exist in mysql table

Just wondering, is it possible to have a query that somehow tells you the values it did not find in a table?
So if I had a query SELECT * FROM mytable WHERE id IN (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and only 2,3,6,7,9 was returned. I wouldd like to know that 1,4,5,8 were not found.
It will be a little hard to do a manual comparision, because this is going to be run over apx 2,000+ rows in a table (the id's are going to be provided via a csv file which can be copied into the query)
Thanks in advance

A: This is probably silly, but what about creating a temporary table containing all your IDs from which you'll substract the result of your SELECT query ?

A: Untested, but in theory:
Table 1:
+----+-----+
| id | num |
+----+-----+

Table 2:
+----+
| id |
+----+

Table 1 contains the data you're looking for (and num is any field containing any data)
Table 2 contains the IDs from the CSV
SQL:
SELECT COUNT(`Table1`.`num`) AS `count`
FROM `Table1`
LEFT JOIN `Table2` ON `Table1`.`id` = `Table2`.`id`
WHERE `count` = 0

A: Quick solution, open your csv file, replace all comma's with " union select " put select in front of that line and use it as the first line of the query at the bottom query.
So 1,2,3 becomes
Select 1 union select 2 union select 3
Use this in the query below
    Select 1 union select 2 union select x -- replace this line with the line generated from your csv
    Except
    (
     Select id from mytable
    )

A: What about:
SELECT *
   FROM (select 1 as f
               UNION
               SELECT 2 as f
               UNION
