The cauliflower parts that usually end up in the trash may be the tastiest part of all. Last year, Chad Frischmann, vice president and research director at Project Drawdown, said that, “Reducing food waste is one of the most important things we can do to reverse global warming.” And in fact, If food waste were a country, it would place third – following the United States and China – for impact on global warming....
Thanks to Imperfect Produce, less food is thrown away, farmers earn more, and you can enjoy farm-fresh seasonal food at reduced prices. Did you know that 20 percent of vegetables and fruit grown in the United States goes to waste? This occurs because grocery stores have aesthetic standards that prevent the sale of less-than-perfect produce. Despite the fact that outward appearance has no effect on functionality or nutritional value (if anything, it might improve it), this ridiculous standard means that billions of pounds of fresh healthy food go to waste every year....
During the production of Avatar: The Way of Water, director James Cameron allowed one actor, in particular, to take a shot at his job. Cameron set a new standard as a filmmaker in Hollywood, becoming the only director to lead two movies that grossed more than $2 billion at the global box office, including Avatar 2. He galvanized his troops together to make a film that earned impressive reviews across the board, particularly thanks to performances from stars like Zoe Saldaña, Stephen Lang, and Sigourney Weaver....

Petroleum coke, or petcoke, is a byproduct from the refining of crude oil. It consists mostly of carbon, with variable amounts of sulfurs and heavy metals. It has many industrial uses, including the production of batteries, steel, and aluminum. Lower-grade petcoke, which contains higher concentrations of sulfur, is used as fuel in coal-fired power plants and cement kilns. Lower-grade coal is estimated to represent 75% to 80% of all petcoke produced....
With four episodes now under its belt, The Falcon and the Winter Soldier is heading towards its final act. MCU fans will certainly want to strap in, as the fifth episode will be the longest of the series yet. And, according to Marvel Studios Producer Nate Moore, “Episode 5” will be the series’ “strongest episode” as well. The Marvel Studios executive has thoroughly discussed The Falcon and the Winter Soldier, revealing that viewers haven’t seen the last of Carl Lumbly’s Isaiah Bradley....
While Marvel Studios is set to bring seven new live-action entries into the MCU, continuing the trend of the first 13 years, the franchise is about to take a bold step into the world of animation with this summer’s What If…?. The series is set to take a deep look back at the Infinity Saga, exploring what would have happened with details of past movies changed to something different. Recently, the first episode was confirmed to be one teased for most of the last couple of years, in which Peggy Carter takes the Super Soldier Serum instead of Steve Rogers in Captain America: The First Avenger....
Black Panther star Michael B. Jordan revealed the painful experience he went through playing the MCU villain Killmonger. In the past ten years or so, Jordan has become one of the biggest names in Hollywood, having taken on headlining roles in Black Panther and the Creed franchise. This has even led to the actor’s first foray into directing in the upcoming Creed III. Despite being killed off at the end of Ryan Coogler’s first Wakandan adventure, the Killmonger actor came back to reprise his MCU role in Black Panther: Wakanda Forever after “[not even] know[ing] if [a return was] a possibility....
Shortly before Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness took over the MCU fandom, the franchise’s sixth Disney+ show came to an end with the final episode of Oscar Isaac’s Moon Knight. The finale set the stage for an interesting journey with Isaac’s Marc Spector in the Marvel Studios narrative, particularly after he seemingly left Khonshu and the Moon Knight persona behind him. In that finale, Isaac put forth everything he had in his performance, as both Marc Spector and Steven Grant, as fans celebrated Steven coming back from the dead in the Duat before the duo returned to the real world....
For over a year, it has been rumored that Tobey Maguire and Andrew Garfield would make appearances in Spider-Man: No Way Home. Garfield’s Spider-Man has been heavily suggested to be included through set leaks, merchandise, and marketing. The latest to potentially spoil the inclusion of Garfield’s Peter Parker is a promotional campaign with Sony by Skittles in Russia, which included an image from Garfield’s The Amazing Spider-Man 2. However, it seems like either Sony or the firm in Russia finally realized their mistake and removed the image from the promotional website....
The future for Tom Holland’s Spider-Man is bright. There are endless possibilities for where the character could go next, and what challenges may end up at his doorstep. One of those many options is Mister Negative, otherwise known as Martin Li. The character is a more recent addition to Spidey’s lore, having made his debut appearance in any medium in 2007. The big bad got his powers thanks to some nonconsensual drug testing that changed him forever....
We have been saying it for years; we are reaching a phosphorus crisis and should be separating poo from pee and recovering the nutrients from both. We keep pointing to the Swedish example where they used NoMix urine separating toilets, where as Mike noted a few years ago, “NoMix-technology is well accepted; around 80% of users liked the idea, 75−85% were satisfied with design, hygiene, smell, and seating comfort of NoMix-toilets....
The residents of one New Jersey retirement home seem to have the perfect life. They spend their days in sun-drenched suites with ramps that allow easy access to several outdoor solariums. There are dozens of other residents with whom they can interact, but if they feel like being with fewer neighbors, they can spend time alone. There’s excellent medical attention, doting staff and more than 200 volunteers who visit regularly....
WWOO/Promo image I have mixed feelings about outdoor kitchens. A hundred years ago, lots of people had them, since a stove took forever to heat up and cool and it could make the entire house unbearable. With gas and electric stoves this was no longer an issue, and once air conditioning came along, you could just buy electricity to make it go away. On the other hand, most of the ones you see in the magazines are over the top ridiculous, with expensive stainless appliances that probably cost more than the inside kitchen....
Tony Stark. Billionaire genius. Armored Avenger. The character that launched the MCU and helped make it what it is today. Clearly, a lot can be said about Robert Downey Jr.’s most famous role. His Iron Man appeared in nine movies total and was the one to end the Mad Titan Thanos once and for all at the cost of his own life in the most recent Avengers film. Tony’s legacy can be felt throughout the MCU, through heroes who try to live up to his name, like Peter Parker aka, Spider-Man....
The hot real estate plays of the next decade will be in the rust belt along the Great Lakes. Writing in Citylab, Jeremy Deaton asks Will Buffalo become a climate change haven?

It has great architecture and cheap real estate. It has been going through a remarkable revitalization....
Chris Evans left the role of Captain America behind over three years ago. At this point, it may as well have been a lifetime ago. With his new Disney Pixar movie Lightyear just around the corner, the star has once again been put back into the spotlight. Of course, with that comes an avalanche of questions regarding the mantle he left behind in the MCU. Recently, he was asked what he thought about Anthony Mackie taking over the mantle....
Thor: Love and Thunder will finally unleash Christian Bale’s Gorr the God Butcher, causing problems for Chris Hemsworth’s God of Thunder and Natalie Portman’s Mighty Thor. The anticipation surrounding Gorr’s MCU debut has been sky-high, especially after test audiences noted that he’s Marvel’s best villain ever. As a result, the hype continues for Thor’s next great adversary, and marketing also showcased what’s in store for this intriguing new addition. After the villain was notably absent from the film’s first teaser, Love and Thunder’s marketing team ramped up to showcase the creepy villain....
A CCXP-exclusive DC action figure has revealed the best look yet at Harry Lennix’s Martian Manhunter costume from Zack Snyder’s Justice League.Unbeknown to the fandom, Zack Snyder had been teasing the introduction of Martian Manhunter since his first DCEU flick.

It’s been almost two months since the release of Doctor Strange in the Multiverse of Madness. The project was one of the most anticipated Marvel movies of the year, and while it may have stumbled a little, the final project still had plenty to love. Not only that but there were tons of cameos and Easter eggs to pick up on, many of which were undoubtedly missed by most viewers upon first viewing....
