Critic Reviews for Pigs
Pigs [plays] like a Shake-N-Bake version of A Touch of Satan, or any number of early 70s excuses for morose middling macabre...

Audience Reviews for Pigs
This is one of those it's "so bad that it's kinda good" horror films, another Troma classic I suppose. It kinda reminded me of Manos, but slightly better (at least it has a plot of some sort) Like many of the Troma films, it featured bad acting, weird plot and dumb dialogue. Titular pigs were barely shown on screen as well as the whole set being so dark that you can't see anything Moral of the story: It's cheaper to feed pigs with corpse.
Sylvester Kuo
Toni Lawrence stars as a psychotic young woman who kills her father after he rapes her. This film is pretty bad; many scenes just don't make sense and some of them seem to come out of nowhere. On the plus side, a lot of the dopey characters are fun to watch (especially Zambrini), and the movie has a bizarre, dreamy (and sometimes nightmarish) quality throughout. The scene where Toni Lawrence hears loud pig squeals and then runs screaming through a field for what seems like an eternity is probably the best example of the weird, out-of-nowhere sequences that continuously crop up. Unprofessional filmaking at its best!

Pigs Quotes


The Prussian Kingdom is the de jure state representing the national interests of all Prussians and is concerned with their welfare, safety, and liberties under international law.
The adbication of the throne of the Prussian Kingdom by the Emperor of Germany, Kaiser Wilhelm II, removed forever any claim by the Hohenzellern family or its heirs to the Prussian Royal Throne. The throne being vacated until January 12, 2016, the Prussian Kingdom, representing the Prussian state, established King Wilhelm IV as the current and provisional Prussian King pending the eventual confirmation of the Prussian King by the re-organized state with ceremonies to conclude in Konigsberg at the behest of the Prussian people.
Under the terms of the Montevideo Convention, the Prussian Kingdom exercises Declarative Sovereignty as a state in that it consists of territory, a permanent population, a government, and a state which can carry out diplomatic relations with other states.
Prussia is a captive nation of war, since the illegal occupation of the Prussian governments in Konigsberg in 1934 by the National Socialist regime of Germany, the invasion of Danzig, a Prussian Free City, by the German Army, and the illegal declaration of the dissolution of the Prussian state by the Allied Powers in 1947. The occupation of the Prussian Heartland of East Prussia, Memel, and Danzig by foreign powers since that time, in retribution against a Power that was itself an aggressor against the Prussian state, has created the situation of today.
The Prussian Kingdom does not include non-Prussian lands not associated with the original Prussian Kingdom declared in 1701, with its Royal Seat in Konigsberg. During this time, while the Hohenzellern Elector of Brandenberg and King of Prussia treated both the Prussian Kingdom and the Electorate of Brandenberg as one body, the Prussian Kingdom consisted solely of what became the provinces of East and West Prussia with Konigsberg as the Royal Seat of the Prussian Kingdom and Danzig as the capital of West Prussia.
With the dissolution of the Holy Roman Empire of the German Nation in 1802 their was no legal block to a formal declaration of the Prussian Kingdom as including Hohenzellern owned provinces within the dissolved Empire. However as Prussia herself was the victim of aggression, the inclusion of non-Prussian provinces by the Hohenzellerns as part of their newly minted Prussian Kingdom violated the sovereignty of such states as Brandenberg, Silesia, Pomerania, and others. The Prussian Kingdom has therefore opted to LIMIT its claim of territory to the legal extent of the Prussian Kingdom outside of the borders of the Holy Roman Empire.
In order to reconstitute our nation and state, in keeping with the growing desire of residents currently residing in the Prussian heartland to adopt the Prussian nationality, and also in the interest of peace, the Prussian Kingdom holds that all persons living in the Prussian heartland and all persons willing to support the Prussian Kingdom shall be accepted, upon review, for citizenship in the Prussian Kingdom. The Prussian Kingdom claims de jure sovereignty over all the lands of the Prussian Heartland and will only exercise de facto sovereignty with the active support and cooperation of the persons residing on its territory, whose consent the Prussian Kingdom will work to obtain.
We recognize that the establishment of de facto sovereignty over the lands which we possess de jure sovereignty is a long process, it will be pursued peacefully, and that gaining the support of the people within our heartland is the chief prerequisite to achieving these aims.
The confirmation of the King of Prussia will be left to the citizens of the Prussian Kingdom when the Prussian Kingdom's royal government in exile is physically established in Konigsberg with the consent of the people in the Prussian heartland who see in Prussian independence their opportunity live in freedom, security, prosperity and at peace with their neighbors. While the Prussian Kingdom is the succesor government of the Prussian state, which has been vacated these many years, the Prussian Kingdom will earn the support of its people for the ultimate de facto establishment of our government in Konigsberg.
We understand that a new claimant to the throne of the Prussian Kingdom by a Hohenzellern has been made. We reject any notion that a Hohenzellern could take the throne because it was abdicated and because the Prussian Kingdom itself has many grievances against the House of Hohenzellern, chief among them being their inability and unwillingness to protect the Prussian people and heartland of the original Prussian Kingdom and the relegation to inconsequential status and neglect of the Prussian Kingdom after 1871. As Prussians have in the past sought the protection and support of Poland against the Hohenzellerns and their use of Prussia without serving the interests of Prussia, so too we appeal to our Polish friends to support an independent Prussia not controlled by a Hohenzellern.
Those who will deny the veracity or seriousness of these claims will be disproved: Our proof shall be delivered in the gathering of the Prussian nation, online, and then the gaining of support for Prussia by the people living in our heartland who even now are beginning, we believe by Divine ordination, to be drawn to the Prussian national identity.

Rocky Start for CO2 Trading
The European Union handed out more allowances than it should have.
Patric Hadeniusarchive page
In 2002, the European Union ratified the 1997 Kyoto Protocol on climate change, which requires that global greenhouse-gas emissions be reduced by 2012 to an amount 5 percent below 1990 levels. To do its part, the EU is relying largely on market mechanisms. Companies that operate certain carbon-emitting facilities, such as coal- or oil-fired electrical generating stations, are granted "allowances" – the legal right to release a certain amount of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere each year – and may buy and sell these allowances as they wish.
Such a market, in theory, gives companies an incentive to reduce emissions, so that they can avoid buying extra allowances and sell their surplus ones. But the European Union Greenhouse Gas Emissions Trading Scheme, which opened in January 2005, has already run into some unexpected glitches. In April and May, data leaked by some member states and the European Commission showed that in the first year of the market's operation, most EU countries handed out more allowances than were needed. Total allowances exceeded the actual amount of carbon emitted by at least 67 million tons, or 3.4 percent, according to PointCarbon, a research firm based in Oslo, Norway. The news disoriented carbon traders and caused allowance prices, which had risen steadily since the market's opening, to plummet from about 30 euros per ton of carbon dioxide to a low of less than 10 euros per ton.
This story was part of our July 2006 issue
See the rest of the issue
Low allowance prices mean companies have little incentive to reduce their emissions. Governments have been so generous when allocating permits that this first, experimental phase of allowance trading – which lasts through 2007 – is unlikely to lead to real emissions reductions, says Christian Azar, a professor of physical-resource theory at Chalmers University in Gothenburg, Sweden. What's needed, says Azar, is a cap on allowances.

Hi Scorpio, here is your astrological forecast for February 2019. Scorpio's ruling planets are volatile Mars and inscrutable Pluto. Consequently, your actions and motivations are often masked with secrecy. As a general rule most Scorpio hide their emotions and true feelings deep within themselves. Scorpio value privacy and solitude. Metaphorically, choosing to live their life in the shadows, or, shrouded in mystery. Scorpio are preoccupied with the image they present to the world. And perhaps their greatest fear is to be perceived as weak or vulnerable.
Looking to the future: Mercury and Neptune's influence may stimulate intrigue between siblings, team mates or around the board room table. The net result of this vortex of suspicion and distrust is a loss of efficiency and a debilitating malaise which magnifies trivial misunderstandings into WW3. Prevailing circumstance may impel you to work behind the scenes to save the day. Your intervention could be instrumental in rescuing a special relationship; a career or saving somebody close from bankruptcy. Take care when out on the roads because a suspicious pair of eyes could be clocking your journeys, checking up on your speed; millage or business expenses.
Venus conj. Saturn energies may denote a magnificent opportunity to deepen the love and commitment already enjoyed in an established relationship. Moreover, a significant number of senior Scorpio will find new love and build upon the experience of a happy past. It's the way of the world: autumn begets winter; winter begets spring; spring begets love. Don't feel remorse or guilty. Enjoy.
It's a pain but circumstances may compel you to undertake essential property repairs. This could anything from a minor problem with a blocked toilet to a main drain. The powerful combination of Mars and Uranus may denote regrettable incidents of carelessness or inattention. So it goes without saying that if you use electrical machinery or power tools at home or work; extra care is recommended. Scorpios who work for a long established company might be spurred into industrial action. The catalyst for discontent might be a cocktail of automation and A.I. Despite Management assurances down-sizing may follow the the introduction of new working practices.
Was it William Shakespeare or Black Adder who said "The path of true love never runs smooth, but it can be amusing for onlookers!" Well, get your tickling-stick out of the cupboard because you may witness a power struggle which ensnare three hapless individuals: a Capricorn; an Aries and last but not least a Taurus. Stand aside from this is a dispute because it's going to run; and run; and run ...... well you get the gist!!!! Finally, Single Scorpios may fall in love with somebody while at work, or, enjoy some kind of working "holiday".

Q: How to align image in the center of the screen and add text in the left bottom corner of the image I'm building a simple website right now and faced a small issue. How do I align picture (iMessage text with blue bubble) in the center of the screen so and place a text in the bottom left corner of the image (text is Read + time)?

But how do I add text in the bottom left corner right below the image?

A: Something like this might work for you...

tester

Although I completely agree with Temani, there are lots of resources on centring such as the links below:
css3 pr align-self
how to css image center
css align

A: Do you want to set your image in the center of screen Or in the center of a div?
If you want to set it in the center of screen   horizontally then you shoud set
margin-left:auto;
margin-right:auto;
And if you want add text on image, you shoud set that image in the background of a div and add text in that div wherever you want
.imgdiv{ background: url(your IMG url) no-repeat center;
-webkit-background-size: contain;
-moz-background-size: contain;
 -o-background-size: contain;
background-size: contain;
height: 150px; width: 300px;

HTC HD7 on T-Mobile has started getting its Windows Phone update treat, users being able to bump the version numbers to 7392, a build which also brings the security fix for Internet Explorer with relation to SSL certs and Microsoft said they are working on the issues involved with the Samsung firmware and hardware variations and will also be releasing the software soon………….
The 7392 build update for Windows Phone 7 started rolling out for HTC HD7 and the ecurity update that started rolling out awhile ago on other phones will bring the HD7′s security up to date with the whole issue it had with fraudulent third-party digital certificates from Comodo. The latest Windows Phone 7 update, known as NoDo which brings features like cut and paste to the Microsoft mobile platform, started rolling out to the HTC HD7 on Tuesday. T-Mobile said the rollout started on March 29 and is a two-part update. The first one updates the device registry, while the second update adds the meatier features like cut and paste, improved marketplace search, a fix for increased data consumption related to Yahoo Mail and different background images while connected to Wi-Fi. Microsoft rolled out a more minor update last month, but it ran into problems, prompting Microsoft to temporarily suspend the update for Samsung phones. The issue resulted in Microsoft pushing this cut and paste update to late March.

Profile of a narcissistic father
The literature suggests that there are more narcissistic males than females about 75%. The reason for this would be explained by socialization with male children, emphasis on performance, emphasis on job and activity, emphasis on competition, natural born aggression to some degree. There is plenty of room of who can give men their run when it comes to narcissism so there is overlap as well in the deeper population. Narcissistic fathers however, that is a pretty serious matter when it comes to the effects on children because so much of the emphasis, the importance in that parenting relationship is about how you are showing up in the world. What your contribution looks like, so the child is getting the message that it's not who you are but it's what you do, how you perform, how well you achieve, how well you excel, how others notice it, that's going to make the difference in terms of your acceptance by the father, your acceptance by the community and so there's a demanding that comes from a narcissistic dad. There's often times high criticalness if the child isn't as perfect as the father expects because it's the extension of him.

Ric Flair Reveals Doctors Have Cleared Him "To Get Knocked Down In The Ring"
by Josh Coulson
Ric Flair has revealed that not only does he feel better than ever following his health scare, but doctors have even cleared him to take bumps if called upon.
It is always hard for fans when we lose a legend from the wrestling business. Sadly, in 2018, it feels like that has been happening more frequently than usual. Just last week the innovative Dynamite Kid and legendary Larry Hennig both passed away. During the summer of 2017, the industry came very close to losing one of, if not the, greatest of all time, Ric Flair.
RELATED: LARRY 'THE AXE' HENNIG PASSES AWAY AGE 82
News broke that The Nature Boy had been rushed to the hospital and while there, he was placed in a medically induced coma. Not good, and after the worst was over, Flair revealed he was told he had a 20% chance of survival. Thankfully, the 16 time World Champion kicked out and he is still with us today.
Flair discussed that scary time in his life with Stone Cold on The Steve Austin Show recently. Naitch also discussed what his life has been like since, divulging that even though he no longer drinks like he used to, he still has two or three on special occasions. He also made the somewhat shocking revelation that if WWE were to call on him to take a bump or two, doctors have officially cleared him for that eventuality.
"The guys have cleared me to do anything. I've actually been cleared to get knocked down in the ring," Flair told Austin and his listeners. By guys, we are assuming Naitch means WWE doctors. We assume that because Flair brought up his returned ability to take bumps when discussing his recent appearance at WWE Starrcade. He mentioned that he wasn't sure how WWE planned to use him prior to the event.
Just because Flair can take bumps we don't necessarily think that he should. He may have made a full recovery following his health scare but we would not like to be the one tasked with knocking him down for the first time. We imagine WWE is on the same page as us with that one. Flair doesn't need to be in any physical altercations. In fact, harking back to Crown Jewel, perhaps no one over the age of 50 should be involved physically in WWE.

Chapter 18: Environment [PDF 61 KB]
Article 18.1: Levels of Protection
Recognising the right of each Party to establish its own levels of environmental protection and its own environmental development priorities, and to adopt or modify accordingly its environmental laws, regulations and policies, each Party shall endeavour to ensure that its laws, regulations and policies provide for and encourage high levels of environmental protection and shall endeavour to continue to improve its respective levels of environmental protection, including through such environmental laws, regulations and policies.

La Temporada 1947 de la NFL fue la 28.ª en la historia de la NFL. La liga expandió la temporada regular de
de juego de once partidos por equipo a doce, un número que se mantuvo constante durante catorce temporadas, hasta 1960.

La temporada finalizó el 28 de diciembre cuando los Chicago Cardinals vencieron a Philadelphia Eagles 28-21 por
el juego de campeonato de la NFL.

Principales cambios en las reglas
 Un quinto árbitro, el Back Judge, se añade al equipo de arbitraje.
 Cuando un equipo tiene menos de 11 jugadores en el campo antes de un snap o una patada, los oficiales no son para notificarles.
 Será llamado uso ilegal de manos cada vez que un jugador defensivo los utiliza para bloquear la visión de un receptor durante un pase detrás de la línea del equipo ofensivo.
 Durante un intento fallido de punto extra, el juego queda muerta, tan pronto el fallo es evidente.
 No será llamada rudeza al pateador si se inicia después de recuperar un balón perdido o pérdida de balón en la jugada.
 Se requiere que todos los equipos a utilicen cadenas prescritas de yardas estándar, cajas, y marcadores de eje flexible.
 Los juegos ya no se realizarían los martes.

Carrera Divisional

A partir de esta temporada, los equipos de la NFL jugaron un calendario de 12 juegos en lugar de 11 partidos. El duodécimo juego demostró ser crucial
para los Steelers, Eagles, Bears y Cardinals. En la División Este, Pittsburgh tomó una ventaja de medio juego sobre Philadelphia después de una
victoria 35-24 en la Semana Cinco. El 30 de noviembre, los Eagles ganaron la revancha, 21-0, para tomar ventaja con una marca de 7-3-0 frente
al 7-4-0. El mismo día, los Cardinals perdieron ante los Giants, 35-31, mientras que los Bears vencieron a Lions 34-14; los Cards con 7-3-0
estaban a un juego de los Bears con 8-2-0 en la División Oeste.

En la semana doce, los Cardinals vencieron a los Eagles, 45-21. Pittsburgh venció a Boston 17-7, mientras que los Bears perdieron ante los
Rams, 17-14. El resultado fue que los Steelers terminó en 8-4 y los Eagles en 7-4 con un partido pendiente en la semana trece. Los Cardinals
y los Bears estaban en 8-3,y se enfrentaban en la última semana por el título del Oeste el 14 de diciembre. Una multitud de 48.632
asistieron al Wrigley Field. Los Cardinals ganaron el partido, 30-21, y el viaje al juego de campeonato. El mismo día, Philadelphia venció a Green Bay,
28-14, para forzar un juego de desempate con Pittsburgh el 21 de diciembre.

MVP Rankings, Edition VIII: Coaches Weigh In On Their Own Award
March 17, 2016 by Chris Sheridan
We publish these rankings roughly twice a month, an exercise in futility tantamount to being a 50-year old on a beach in Panama City looking to re-live his conquests of the mid-1980s back when Fort Lauderdale and The Button were the hot spots. So now that I have revealed my Easter weekend plans (not really, but it is not 100 percent out of the question), I will reveal my mid-April plans: I am going to fill out my MVP ballot, and
Sheridan: The Three Biggest Unanswered Questions of the NBA Season
We would like to interrupt your NCAA bracket guesswork with a few questions, and in this column I absolutely promise to stay away from politics after using it as a crutch writing device in my last couple MVP rankings columns. (I'll have another one of those later this week, and I will try to adhere to that vow for two straight columns … but it won't be easy). Pablo You know, the NBA season is winding down, we have already had
Best Basketball Comebacks of All Time
Basketball is a game of momentum. Often, the ebb-and-flow throughout a game balances out somewhat evenly, making most games back-and-forth affairs. However, sometimes things shift so hard in one team's favor early on that you can't help but think the game is a lost cause. But occasionally, those giant early (or even second half) leads develop into monumental comebacks that turn what was going to be a forgettable game into one you'll remember forever. This unpredictable-to-the-very-end element is one of the reasons
PODCAST: Gonzo talks NBA Mock Draft on Miami radio
March 3, 2016 by Chris Sheridan
The Miami Heat could very well be in the draft lottery this season, which really wasn't what they were thinking going into the season, eh? But Chris Bosh's reported blot clot problem, along with a general problem with underperforming, has left the Heat in the fight for the eighth and final playoff spot in the East as we head into the final six weeks of the season. What exactly has gone wrong in Miami? How can it be fixed? And if Pat
Sheridan: MVP Rankings, Edition VII: Super Tuesday, with Curry, Trump and Hillary
What's left to say about Stephen Curry following what was arguably the most remarkable week of the most remarkable season we've ever seen from the most remarkable shooter in the history of the NBA? Yes, some folks have run out of superlatives. But not everyone. As we publish on the afternoon of Super Tuesday and await the outcome of 11 presidential primary contests, it is worth noting that Donald J. Trump is saying that Curry has already made America Great Again. OK,
Sheridan: Can George Karl's Kings Make a Playoff Push?
February 24, 2016 by Chris Sheridan
They have the best center in the NBA in DeMarcus Cousins. They have the craftiest point guard in the league in Rajon Rondo. They have a proven, year-in, year-out scorer in Rudy Gay. They have a backup point guard in Darren Collison that half a dozen teams would kill for. They have George Karl running the show, for better or worse. They have Quincy Acy. OK, forget about Quincy .. along with the NBA's most porous defense (allowing 109.1 ppg). The
Sheridan: February Free Agency May Be Better than Trade Deadline
Not sure about you, but I am getting sick and tired of waking up each morning and getting a bigger jolt from the political news than the basketball news. If you were given a choice of reading one and only one story today, which would you pick: "Trump vs. Pope" or "Trade Dudline Passes Quietly." Yes, it is an election year, and it is going to be a lively and historical one. But for those of us who live and breathe NBA
Sheridan: This One Will Go Down as the Trade Dudline
We waited all season for this? Are you kidding me? A day of dumpster diving? Ugh. Well, let's break it all down: LeBron James lost a friend, and that friend, Anderson Varejao, was immediately waived and may just come back to haunt his former team if he signs with an Eastern Conference contender after spending 12 seasons in Cleveland. In related news since we are talking about LeBron's recent past, Miami Heat owner Mickey Arison saved millions and millions of luxury tax dollars.


Jenny Oliver founded Connections Dance Theater in 2014, which aims to develop the technical and performance ability of dancers, and expand the ways dancers can promote the welfare of others. During her residency, Jenny will develop the choreography and set design for "Hot Water Over Raised Fists." Sparked by the struggles of indigenous people at Standing Rock and the struggle for clean water in Flint, Michigan, "Hot Water Over Raised Fists" will invite artists and audience to understand the necessity of protest.
The Boston Dancemakers Residency is made possible in part by the Aliad Fund at The Boston Foundation.

GSA Celebrates 50 Years of Art in Architecture
The crowd cheers as balloons are released during the ribbon-cutting ceremony for Alexander Calder's Flamingo in Chicago on October 25, 1974. Photo: GSA archives
October 05, 2022 | Jennifer Gibson, Ph.D., Director, Center for Fine Arts
Post filed in: Art in Architecture
This October marks the 50th Anniversary of GSA's Art in Architecture (AiA) program. In 1972, President Nixon issued a directive renewing and expanding the 1962 Guiding Principles for Federal Architecture, which recommended that new federal buildings include artworks. Since then, the AiA program has commissioned more than 500 artworks that are permanently installed in buildings across the country.
These artworks highlight the importance of federal architecture and showcase the vibrancy of American visual arts. Together, the art and architecture of federal buildings create a lasting cultural legacy for the people of the United States.
From its beginning, the AiA program has not endorsed an official style of art, any particular medium, or content. Instead, AiA has commissioned artists to create work that shows current artistic practices, responds to the building's site and design, and reflects the diversity and richness of the nation's many artist communities.
The artworks mirror the creative talents and voices of each generation's artists. The collection is a valuable time capsule that reflects the changes of the last 50 years.
Commission Process
AiA commissions are tied to congressionally authorized capital-construction projects. In an average year, that typically means five new AiA commissions.
The Bipartisan Infrastructure Law, which is funding the construction of 26 land port of entry (LPOE) projects (border stations), dramatically increases the number of GSA art commissions. In support of this effort, starting this fall, we will convene a number of AiA panels. We'll be very busy over the next few years with the regular courthouse and federal building construction projects plus the LPOE projects. We're looking forward to finding and including more artists and adding to our collection.
In the spring, GSA and the National Endowment for the Arts signed a memorandum of understanding to work together to increase awareness of the AiA program and promote these opportunities to artists from the nation's diverse communities.
Both of us share a commitment to diversity, inclusion, and access to the arts for the American public. We're both looking for new ways to support artists. We recently completed a series of four webinars that focused on AiA, the new LPOE projects, and how artists can be considered for upcoming commissions.
Every AiA project relies on a panel. Panels include
The lead designer of the building project
A client agency representative
A community representative
An art professional based in the project city or region
Another art professional based elsewhere in the country
GSA staff
Each panel member brings a different perspective and knowledge base to the process. The panelists learn about the building design, the agency that will occupy the building, and the community's concerns and preferences. They consider how to incorporate art into the project, recommend artists for evaluation and review the selected artist's proposal.
National Artist Registry
Want to be considered for upcoming AiA commissions? Join the GSA National Artist Registry.
Any artist who is a citizen or lawful permanent resident of the United States is eligible for a commission. Artists can submit their portfolios for a specific project or join the National Artist Registry to be considered for all upcoming projects.
Once in the registry, an artist can be considered for all AiA commissions. Artists can update their materials at any time. If an artist is a finalist for a commission, AiA staff will contact them to request some more information.
We have more than a dozen AiA projects already underway, in addition to the 26 new LPOE projects starting soon. During this summer and fall, we've installed several newly completed artworks, including those by Nick Cave in Detroit, Michigan, and Monique van Genderen in Harrisburg, Pennsylvania.
50 years ago, we lived in a very different world—no personal computers or cell phones, for example. We'd like to know what the next 50 years will bring. But one thing we do know: artists will continue to be part of a federal art tradition.
You can view more works and find the application form on GSA's AiA website.

Q: "IIS Web Application Name' has already been defined" when using msdeploy from TFS Build So here's the deal:  I have a Visual Studio solution that is made up of numerous projects.  Two of these projects are web application projects.  Of these two, I want to have TFS build deploy one of them to our dev server after a successful build/test run.
To get the web app to deploy, I updated the deploy target of my .csproj so it looks like the following:
  <PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(Configuration)|$(Platform)' == 'Debug|AnyCPU' ">
    <DebugSymbols>true</DebugSymbols>
    <DebugType>full</DebugType>
    <Optimize>false</Optimize>
    <OutputPath>bin\</OutputPath>
    <DefineConstants>DEBUG;TRACE</DefineConstants>
    <ErrorReport>prompt</ErrorReport>
    <WarningLevel>4</WarningLevel>
    <DeployOnBuild>true</DeployOnBuild>
    <DeployTarget>MsDeployPublish</DeployTarget>
    <CreatePackageOnPublish>true</CreatePackageOnPublish>
    <MSDeployPublishMethod>WMSVC</MSDeployPublishMethod>
    <MSDeployServiceUrl>https://192.168.21.79</MSDeployServiceUrl>
    <DeployIisAppPath>DeploymentTest</DeployIisAppPath>
    <UserName>deploy</UserName>
    <Password>sosecure</Password>
    <AllowUntrustedCertificate>true</AllowUntrustedCertificate>
    <SkipExtraFilesOnServer>true</SkipExtraFilesOnServer>
  </PropertyGroup>

With this configuration, my web app was getting deployed to the server successfully.  Unfortunately there was one minor problem.  For reasons that are too frustrating to go into here (and at the end of the day, can't likely be changed), when the deploy runs and pushes the app to our server, there's one CSS file in the project that I need skipped.  That is to say, I want the server copy of the file to be left alone, even if it's different from what's in the project.
To support this requirement, I added the following to my .csproj:
  <PropertyGroup>
    <OnBeforePackageUsingManifest>AddSkipRules</OnBeforePackageUsingManifest>
  </PropertyGroup>
  <Target Name="AddSkipRules">
    <ItemGroup>
      <MsDeploySkipRules Include="SkipCss">
        <SkipAction>Delete</SkipAction>
        <ObjectName>filePath</ObjectName>
        <AbsolutePath>site\.css$</AbsolutePath>
        <XPath>
        </XPath>
      </MsDeploySkipRules>
      <MsDeploySkipRules Include="SkipCss2">
        <SkipAction>Update</SkipAction>
        <ObjectName>filePath</ObjectName>
        <AbsolutePath>site\.css$</AbsolutePath>
        <XPath>
        </XPath>
      </MsDeploySkipRules>
    </ItemGroup>
  </Target>

With this added, my expectation was that the build would skip processing of my site.css file.  Alas, after trying a number of different things, the file always got updated on the server.  After a bit more digging, I found something (here on SO or on a blog, don't recall at this point) that mentioned the .csproj needs a directive to ensure msdeploy.exe is used to handle the deployment.  With that in mind, I added the following:
<PropertyGroup>
  <UseMsDeployExe>true</UseMsDeployExe>
</PropertyGroup>

Now when I run the build, it fails with the following error:
MSDEPLOY: The parameter 'IIS Web Application Name' has already been defined.

So, I tried removing the <DeployIssAppPath> element from the .csproj but that just led to the following error:
C:\Program Files (x86)\MSBuild\Microsoft\VisualStudio\v11.0\Web\Microsoft.Web.Publishing.targets (4220): The "ConcatFullServiceUrlWithSiteName" task was not given a value for the required parameter "SiteAppName".

At this point I'm pretty much out of ideas and really need to get this thing working.  Any suggestions or insight as to what I'm missing to get around the error about 'IIS Web Application Name' already being defined or the last error about 'SiteAppName' not having a value would be appreciated.

A: Have you tried stopping the app pool for the target before deploying? I use something like this in PowerShell, which is called from MSBuild in my deployment processes:
echo ""
echo "Stopping $($args[0]) App Pool..."
echo ""
#Stop App Pool
MsDeployAppPoolSwitch $args[0] $args[1] $args[2] $args[3] "StopAppPool"

echo ""
echo "Deploying to $($args[0])..."
echo ""
#Deploy Site
WebsiteDeploy $args[0] $args[1] $args[2] $args[3] $DropFolder

echo ""
echo "Starting $($args[0]) App Pool..."
echo ""
#Start App Pool
MsDeployAppPoolSwitch $args[0] $args[1] $args[2] $args[3] "StartAppPool"

Igor Olegowitsch Schestjorkin (, englische Transkription: Igor Olegovich Shestyorkin bzw. Shesterkin; * 30. Dezember 1995 in Moskau) ist ein russischer Eishockeytorwart, der seit Mai 2019 bei den New York Rangers in der National Hockey League (NHL) unter Vertrag steht. In deren Trikot erhielt er im Jahre 2022 die Vezina Trophy als bester Torhüter der NHL. Bei den Olympischen Winterspielen 2018 gewann Schestjorkin mit der russischen Nationalmannschaft unter neutraler Flagge die Goldmedaille.

Karriere
Igor Schestjorkin begann seine Karriere beim HK Spartak Moskau, für dessen Juniorenteam MHK Spartak Moskau er von 2012 bis 2014 in der Molodjoschnaja Chokkeinaja Liga (MHL) das Tor hütete, nachdem er beim KHL Junior Draft 2012 von ihm in der zweiten Runde an insgesamt 43. Stelle ausgewählt worden war. 2013 erreichte er mit seinem Team das Playoff-Finale der MHL, das jedoch mit 3:4 Siegen gegen Omskije Jastreby verloren ging. In der Folgesaison kam er zu seinen ersten Einsätzen in der Profimannschaft in der Kontinentalen Hockey-Liga (KHL) und gewann mit dem Juniorenteam die MHL-Spielzeit 2013/14. Außerdem wurde er in das MHL-All-Star-Team gewählt. Nachdem sein bisheriger Klub sich nach der Spielzeit aus der KHL zurückzog, wurde Schestjorkin beim NHL Entry Draft 2014 von den New York Rangers in der vierten Runde an insgesamt 118. Stelle ausgewählt. Er wechselte jedoch nicht zu dem NHL-Klub an die US-Ostküste, sondern wechselte mit mehreren Mitspielern zum SKA Sankt Petersburg, für den er neben Einsätzen in der KHL auch bei dessen Farmteam SKA-Newa Sankt Petersburg in der Wysschaja Hockey-Liga spielt. 2015 gewann er mit dem Team aus der nördlichsten Millionenstadt der Welt den Gagarin-Pokal, die Meisterschaftstrophäe der KHL. In der Spielzeit 2015/16 erreichte er die beste Fangquote und den geringsten Gegentorschnitt der Wysschaja Hockey-Liga.

Im Jahre 2017 gewann Schestjorkin mit St. Petersburg erneut die Playoffs um den Gagarin-Pokal und wurde somit russischer Meister. Nachdem er die KHL in der Spielzeit 2018/19 mit einem Gegentorschnitt von 1,11 sowie einer Fangquote von 95,3 % angeführt hatte, unterzeichnete er im Mai 2019 einen Einstiegsvertrag bei den New York Rangers. Diese setzten ihn vorerst erwartungsgemäß bei ihrem Farmteam in der American Hockey League (AHL) ein, dem Hartford Wolf Pack, ehe er schließlich im Januar 2020 sein Debüt für New York in der National Hockey League (NHL) gab.

Bereits in der Spielzeit 2020/21 stieg Schestjorkin zum Stammtorwart der Rangers auf und setzte sich dabei gegen Alexander Georgijew durch. Anschließend unterzeichnete er im August 2021 einen neuen Vierjahresvertrag in New York, der ihm ein durchschnittliches Jahresgehalt von ca. 5,7 Millionen US-Dollar einbringen soll. In der Saison 2021/22 etablierte sich der Russe als einer der besten Torhüter der Liga, so führte er die NHL mit einem Gegentorschnitt von 2,07 sowie einer Fangquote von 93,5 % deutlich an. In den Playoffs 2022 hatte er mit ähnlichen Statistiken maßgeblichen Anteil daran, dass die Rangers das Conference-Finale erreichten, wo sie allerdings den Tampa Bay Lightning (2:4) unterlagen. In der Folge wurde Schestjorkin für die Vezina Trophy als bester Torhüter (gemeinsam mit Jacob Markström und Juuse Saros) sowie auch für die Hart Memorial Trophy als MVP der Liga (gemeinsam mit Connor McDavid und Auston Matthews) nominiert. Letztlich gewann er erwartungsgemäß die Vezina Trophy, während die Hart Trophy an Matthews ging. Zudem wurde der Russe im NHL First All-Star Team berücksichtigt.

International
Igor Schestjorkin vertrat sein Heimatland im Juniorenbereich bei der U18-Weltmeisterschaft 2013 und der U20-Weltmeisterschaft 2015. Dabei gewann er mit der U20-Auswahl 2015 die Silbermedaille und erreichte nach dem Kanadier Zachary Fucale die zweitbeste Fangquote des Turniers, nachdem er zwei Jahre zuvor in der jüngeren Altersklasse die drittbeste Fangquote nach dem Kanadier Philippe Desrosiers und dem Finnen Juuse Saros hatte.

Bei der Weltmeisterschaft 2016 gehörte er erstmals zum Kader der russischen Nationalmannschaft und errang mit ihr, obwohl er selbst zu keinem Einsatz kam, die Bronzemedaille. 2017 gewann Schestjorkin erneut die Bronzemedaille, wobei er wie im Jahr zuvor ohne Einsatz blieb. Ebenfalls als dritter Torwart nahm er unter neutraler Flagge an den Olympischen Winterspielen 2018 teil und gewann dort die Goldmedaille. Auch bei diesem Turnier blieb er ohne Einsatz. Bei der folgenden Weltmeisterschaft im Mai des Jahres in Dänemark, als die Russen mit Schestjorkin im Viertelfinale mit 4:5 nach Verlängerung gegen Kanada ausschieden, kam er zu vier Einsätzen und erreichte die drittbeste Fangquote hinter dem Schweden Anders Nilsson und dem Dänen Frederik Andersen.

The only thing that's almost as exciting as finding out you're expecting is learning whether all things blue or pink are about to invade your home! Whether you wait 12 weeks or 20, it's a special day when it comes time to share your gender news. Here are a few tried and true, PN-approved tips to nail your gender reveal.
1. First, let's back up. We suggest always reminding your doctor that you'd like the gender to be a surprise. You'd hate to hear a premature pronoun in the examination room when you've been dreaming of a Pinterest-worthy reveal party!
2. Ask your doc to put the secret in an envelope and then pinky swear with your significant other that there will be no peeking until the time is right!
3. Size doesn't matter. If you nail the perfect photo, you can proudly share it with your 500 social media friends, but we suggest keeping the party itself an intimate affair so you can soak in the moment rather than playing host to a crowd of friends and family.
4. Make it a game. We love a little competition. Before the secret's out, ask your partygoers to share their predictions. Use a chalkboard to keep a tally.
5. Enlist a photographer you can trust. We're not saying a professional photographer is necessary, but if there's a 21-year-old Instagram master in your family who knows how to nail an iPhone burst, now's the time to ask for his or her help.
6. Want to take it one step further? Have a prop on hand for a family photo once the secret is out. These DIY banners do the trick.
7. Just because you don't know pink or blue pre-party doesn't mean your decor should be lacking. We love these gender-neutral decor options.
8. Most importantly, nail the actual reveal! We absolutely love adding some excitement with confetti. Whether you trust a friend with the secret envelope and the task of ordering or you order one of each, these push-pops won't disappoint!
9. Prepare yourself for the immediate post-reveal baby name questions. Make sure you and your significant other are on the same page as to whether or not you're sharing names before your little one's arrival.
10. Now may be the time to set expectations on how much blue or pink you really want to receive over the next few months. A well-planned registry can help steer guests towards grays, yellows and other colors to complement the traditional boy and girl themes.

…court requests probation reportJustice Navindra Singh postponed the sentencing of Hofosawa Awena Rutherford, who was found guilty of killing her children by feeding them rat poison, until April 9, after she requested that a probation report be sent to the court before she is sentenced.On Thursday, a jury unanimously found Rutherford guilty of killing her children; one-year-old Jabari Cadogan and four-year-old Odascia Cadogan almost four years ago. Following the verdict, the woman collapsed in the courtroom forcing Justice Singh to adjourn the sentencing until 13:00h on Friday.However, when she appeared in court on Friday, Rutherford pleaded with the court for mercy and to take the time served into consideration when imposing her sentence. Her attorney, Adrian Thompson, told the court that his client has been seeing a psychiatrist and all of that should be taken into consideration.Justice Singh then noted that it is Rutherford's right to have a probation report and ordered same to be prepared and sent to the court. He adjourned the sentencing until April 9 at 13:00h.Initially, Rutherford said she had bought cold tablets for the children who has cold-like symptoms, from a man at the Plaisance bus park who sells rat poison. It was established that the children died from pesticide poisoning via a highly toxic chemical called aluminum phosphide, known as "carbon tablets", which is used to kill rats.During the trial, several witnesses had testified that the children never had cold-like symptoms on the day of their demise. Police witnesses had stated that when interviewed moments after the children's deaths, Rutherford had repeatedly complained of stress and problems.Rutherford had said she had drunk two tablets herself, after administering similar tablets to her children, Odasica and Jabari; and had been hospitalised for seven days after the poisoning incident.In an unsworn statement from the prisoner's dock on Wednesday, the convicted woman, in a bout of tears and excessive shaking, had claimed that she loved her children; that she was still traumatised from losing them; that she had never bought rat poison to poison her children, and that the Police had treated her unfairly.At court on Thursday, several persons questioned whether she had really loved her children, since she had given them rat poison to ingest.State Prosecutor Tiffini Lyken had opined that Rutherford had strayed from her recollection of events when she said she had bought the tablets from a pharmacy in her statement on Wednesday.During Wednesday's hearing, the father of the two deceased children, Jabari Cadogan Sr, had testified via Skype from Brooklyn, New York, USA that he supported his children even after he had separated from Rutherford, and that he used to communicate with them daily. The senior Cadogan told the court he was never told the children were suffering from a cold.Rutherford and the children were staying with her sister, Monica Sealey, and her husband Curt, who both testified before the jury that they had not noticed any cold symptoms on the fateful day of the children's demise.In this trial, Prosecutors Shawnette Austin and Abigail Gibbs appeared for the State.

Påssjukevacciner är ett vaccin (med antigen) mot virusinfektionen påssjuka, som räknas som en barnsjukdom och som kännetecknas av infekterade spottkörtlar. Vaccinationen förhindrar påssjuka med hög patientsäkerhet. När vaccinet ges till en majoritet av befolkningen minskar det komplikationerna för hela populationen. När 90% av befolkningen är vaccinerade uppskattas vaccinet fungera till 85%. Två doser krävs för att på lång sikt förebygga påssjuka. Den inledande rekommenderade dosen sker mellan 12 och 18 månaders ålder. Den andra dosen ges normalt vid mellan två år och sex års ålder. Vaccinet kan även hjälpa de som inte är vaccinerade eller redan immuna och som utsatts för påssjukevirus.

Påssjukevaccinet är mycket säkert och biverkningar är vanligtvis milda. Vaccinet kan ge lindrig smärta och svullnad vid injektionsstället och i vissa fall lätt feber. Mer allvarliga biverkningar är sällsynta. Det finns otillräckliga bevis för att koppla vaccinet till komplikationer som t.ex. neurologiska effekter. Vaccinet bör inte ges till personer som är gravida eller någon form av svårare immunnedsättning. Trots detta råd finns inga dokumenterade fall av skadliga utfall hos barn till mödrar som vaccinerats under gravideteten. Trots att vaccinet utvecklas i kycklingceller, kan de med äggallergi vaccineras.

Större delen av den utvecklade världen och många länder bland utvecklingsländerna ger vaccinet i sina immuniserings-program, då ofta i kombination med mässlings- och röda hund-vaccinet då kallat MMR-vaccin. Ytterligare kombinationsvaccin finns med vattkoppsvaccin och är då känt som MMRV-vaccin. Från och med 2005 ger 110 länder vaccinet på detta sätt. I områden där en utbredd vaccination utförs har det lett till ett mer än 90-procentigt fall i frekvensen av påssjuka. Nästan en halv miljard doser av en viss beredning av påssjukevaccin har getts.

Det första påssjukevaccinet licensierades år 1948, men hade då bara kortsiktig effekt. Förbättrade vacciner blev kommersiellt tillgängliga under 1960-talet. Det första vaccinet var ett så kallat inaktiverat-virus-preparat, medan efterföljande vaccin består av försvagade virus. Vaccinet finns på Världshälsoorganisationens lista över essentiella läkemedel, som listar de viktigaste läkemedlen som behövs i ett grundläggande hälso- och sjukvårdssystem. År 2007 fanns ett antal olika vaccin i bruk.

Write What You Know
In spite of my recent foray into social media, I'm a pretty analog gal, and I've been waiting to see if The New York Times would find some way to mark the 50th anniversary of Freedom Summer. This morning, there it was: " When Civil Rights Unity Fractured", an opinion piece by Peniel E.Joseph.
The broad outline of Joseph's argument is irrefutable: that 1964's Freedom Summer was a turning point in the Civil Rights Movement, particularly the challenge to the segregated Mississippi delegates at the Democratic Convention in Atlantic City. He goes on to link the failure of that challenge and the subsequent disillusionment with the Black Power movement and its legacy.
But the piece was full of factual errors: the incorrect name for the Mississippi Freedom Democratic ("Democratic Freedom Party"), a short-hand reference to Fannie Lou Hamer as its "leader" (with all due respect to Ms. Hamer, Aaron Henry was the chair of the delegation) and a description of the rejection of a proposed compromise as a division between "black activists and their liberal allies". In fact, one of the supporters of that compromise was Martin Luther King, and white SNCC activists joined Hamer and the other Freedom Democrats in rejecting it.
The greatest trouble with the piece is its generalizations: white volunteers came out of the summer happy; black activists came out of the summer angry. Joseph points out that some of the volunteers stayed in Mississippi and continued to work with the movement. What he doesn't say is that these white activists shared the growing disillusionment with electoral politics and liberals. In fact, that same disgust spread to movements that cut across lines of race, class and gender that defined the rest of the decade.
In fact, the piece is a muddle—trying to smooth out its own contradictions. The byline wasn't terribly instructive, and I couldn't help but ask: Who is Peniel E. Joseph?
Well, I found out. He's an intellectual powerhouse., an African-American professor and activist who has written four books, including a new biography of one Stokely Carmichael: one of the most fascinating figures of the 20th century. His work carries endorsements from historians I know and respect. I'm grateful to have been led to his work, and plan to buy Joseph's Carmichael book from Powells today.
So how did a serious and accomplished scholar come to write such a terrible piece about Freedom Summer?
Here, I suspect, is the trouble: Joseph had to assume that his readers knew nothing about Freedom Summer except for a catchy name and a picture of white kids and black kids clasping hands and singing. He wanted to challenge that picture, and because he knew that would be hard work, he set aside accuracy and telescoped events.
I am a novelist, not a scholar. But I think I understand the challenge. If I had to write a piece—say a blog post—on why "civil rights unity fractured", what would I say? In many ways, my novel Waveland occupies that territory: the breakdown of unity—not just between black and white, but between comrades on the front lines of a battle. The 1964 Atlantic City convention is in that novel; in fact, it's the centerpiece. Yet I have time to explore into fractures that preceded that convention, and linger on its aftermath. After all, the book is around three hundred pages long.
Scholars and novelists have something in common: we complicate comfortable stories. Coincidentally, today's paper also contained a piece by Roxana Robinson, a defense of a novelist's "right to write" about events she didn't experience. In Robinson's case, she's written about Marines in Iraq. In my own work, I've written about 14th century peasants, Egyptian priests, Hungarian Holocaust survivors and most recently, a white Freedom Summer volunteer and her black comrades.
Yes, of course we have the "right to write" about what we have not experienced. Joseph is also writing about what he did not experience: the impact of Freedom Summer on black and white activists. Yet experience is not the only form of knowledge. We can "know" a thing intimately in many ways, through research, fieldwork, and what I will shamelessly call: imaginative empathy.
Yet here are the terms: we must be accurate, we must not give way to easy generalizations, and we must not replace one comfortable story with another.

Hi Simone–
I liked this piece–this is an issue teachers and writers of history must all struggle with (with varying degrees of success). I wonder: how does one convey nuance and subtlety in the limited space of an op-ed piece? Of a public lecture? How would you have written Joseph's op-ed?
I sometimes resort to telling one story, in great detail, to accomplish this task. Are there other techniques?
Looking forward to being a regular follower of your blog!

Organic farmer interest in on-farm plant breeding has been on the rise due to a lack of available germplasm adapted to organic systems, a growing awareness of the value of regionally adapted varieties, and consolidations in the seed industry that have led to a decline in varietal offerings. Organic participatory plant breeding (PPB) is a decentralized model in which organic farmer-breeders work in collaboration with university, nonprofit and private industry plant breeders to improve plant genetics for organic systems. This approach can supply organic producers and processors with the crops and desired traits that they need.
Refining a breeding population is an essential step in conducting successful on-farm breeding, and the purpose of this one-year project was to make steps to improve breeding populations within longer-term PPB projects to create sub-populations for subsequent breeding activities. The Organic Seed Alliance (OSA) will work with four organic farmers and three professional plant breeders to refine organic breeding populations in three crops: a curly red kale, an early maturing broccoli, and a sugary enhanced sweet corn.
The primary project objective was to refine three populations through mass selection, single plant selections, and progeny selection to create sub-populations for subsequent breeding activities. The goal of supporting these first formative years of breeding efforts was to refine the breeding methods, ensure sustained commitment to the projects, and seek additional long-term funding for this work.


The traditional go-to-market strategy has commonly included, as its cornerstone, the 4Ps of marketing – product, price, place and promotion. However, today's economy is a service economy – an industry of intangibles – where the value of the customer experience can only be measured after the service is delivered. Your employees, how your service is delivered, and its delivery environment can have a profound effect on its success – and all of these components go beyond the 4Ps of marketing.
The three additional Ps of Services Marketing- people, process and the physical environment – need to be integral components of any go-to-market strategy; yet, many companies consider them an afterthought, if they think of them at all.
It may seem obvious that people, process and the physical environment are considerations when delivering a service to market but stop and think about your last unhappy service experience. What made you unhappy? Did the service level meet your expectation (or what you paid for)? How did the employee treat you? Was the employee knowledgeable and empowered to act? Did the place of service look professional? Were you left wondering how a company could operate with such lack of customer care?
As an intangible deliverable, customers may have a hard time imagining the value a company provides before using the service. Marketing a service-based organization has unique challenges but with a little consideration to the additional 3Ps, providing a positive customer experience will result in great opportunities for growth.
Frontline staff should be continually trained and empowered to make the customer experience right.
High levels of professionalism and responsiveness should be of utmost priority.
Build out a blueprint or a map of all the key interactions for consistency and potential fail points with remedies for optimal success.
Build in benchmarks and measurements associated with customer satisfaction for employees to achieve, and reward them when they do.
The design of the servicescape can have an impact on the perception a customer has of the professionalism and level of quality the company provides.
Ensure your physical environment reflects the image you want to portray: a little does go a long way.
As many companies continue to deliver customer self-serve technologies to reduce operational costs, it is imperative for organizations to map out the customer experience to ensure the impersonal still feels personal and meets the expectations of a physical interaction with a business. The engagement – whether offline or online – must include the three Ps of service marketing where the process is simple, esthetically engaging and most importantly, responsive when customers need assistance.
