At first, I thought 'slim' might have meant 'less' and expected the Slim Backpack would only be good for light loads or simple trips. Well folks, the only thing slim about this is its silhouette.
At this very moment, I have the Slim Backpack sitting on the table at the coffee shop (aka my desk), next to my laptop and a towering cup of black coffee. It took maybe all of seven seconds for me to accidentally spill a heavy splash of the liquid gold onto the grey fabric. The feel of the fabric is soft like cotton. And I know that black coffee stains grey cotton. I'm mildly embarrassed by how I reacted to the spill (it was dramatic), but then I was pleasantly surprised when I wiped the hot coffee from the surface of the soft-woven polyester, leaving absolutely no evidence of it ever being there. Still looks brand new. Phew.
While this bag could be used for a variety of purposes (by a variety of individuals), in my personal opinion, it really shines as an urban creative's work bag.
It has an incredibly simple construction, made from literally two large fabric panels. This is genius, as fewer seams mean more weather resistance. With this patterning, the fabric panels extend upward to form the main opening and fold over closure. Protection and access in one. Clever. I seem to find myself using this term ("clever") quite a bit when I describe Bellroy products… That being said, I was curious to find out if I could make this bag work for me, with its uber minimalism.
I'm pleased to report that the Slim Backpack continues to impress and surprise. Viewing this bag from the front, you'd expect a 'what you see is what you get' situation. At least I did. I'm a huge fan of having a small accessories pocket on the exterior and I didn't see one. But Bellroy always has a trick tucked away in their pocket. In this case, the trick is the pocket. On the right side, there's a generously sized zip pocket that visually disappears and doesn't draw your eye from the clean lines of the bag. I've found this pocket effortlessly fits a half-liter bottle of water quite tidily – as well as valuables such as keys, phone, or portable battery pack.
While this bag could be used for a variety of purposes (by a variety of individuals), in my personal opinion, it really shines as an urban creative's work bag. You could definitely take it on the plane for a weekend getaway, but it just checks all the boxes for a modern professional, while not appearing too serious or boring.
Now, about that leather, it's used for both accent and functional purposes here on the Slim Backpack. There's that distinct vertical leather line coming down the center, with two positive-engagement metal magnets tucked behind the lift tab. Each time I open or close the bag, it feels so good. The magnets are legitimately strong, keeping all my stuff inside (even if the bag is turned upside down), yet they open easily with just a thumb and an index finger.
That same leather is also used on the shoulder straps – down by the seat belt webbing where you adjust for fit and up at the top where they connect to the main pack. Originally, it appeared that the tabs up the top were purely aesthetic. But after wearing this pack while walking around town, I realised that they actually allow the shoulder straps to flex and rotate to suit your body. These two little tabs of leather allow this bag to equally fit my six-foot, 230-pound frame and my girlfriend's at five-foot-seven and 140 pounds.
It has an incredibly simple construction, made from literally two large fabric panels. This is genius, as fewer seams mean more weather resistance.
Once you get inside, you'll find all the right pockets for the digital nomad. The laptop sleeve against the rear wall is lined with a black velvety fabric, with a cozy spot for an iPad (or similar) in front, and a spot for a pen or two. Bellroy didn't quit there, though. There's a liner fabric pocket that expands inward for another water bottle, a small umbrella, or other decent sized accessory.
Any time I get a new bag, I try to find things I would change or details I could improve. Sure, this backpack could have a crazy hiking suspension system, or be 20 liters larger, or be constructed from expensive unobtanium. But then it wouldn't be such a perfect work bag for me. In this case, 'slim' definitely doesn't mean 'less than'. It means 'everything you need and nothing you don't'.
Taylor Welden is an industrial designer, Senior Editor of Carryology, and every bit the bag geek. He was commissioned by Bellroy to tell us what he thinks of our Slim Backpack.

1. I'm not a big fan of the telephone. Maybe its because I used to spend hours upon hours on it as a teenager, but these days I much prefer email.
2. I never answer my home or cell phone without checking the caller ID first.
3. I'm a huge multi-tasker. Maybe that's why email is so much better... I can give it my divided attention while still getting other things done.
4. I'm a fussy eater, though I've learned to like a much wider variety of things in the past 10 years. Spaghetti squash is wonderful - have you tried it? What about elk meat - was some of the best read meat I've ever had!
5. I don't like guacamole. I've never really tried it. I just know I don't like it by the looks of it.
6. My parents have a "yours, mine and ours" situation. I have a half sister (Dad) and a half brother (Mom).
7. If I won the lottery, I'd first pay off my huge yarn credit card debt and then I'd look for a bigger house with more land so that we can take in many more dogs and give them a loving family!
Now I'm supposed to tag 7 people, but I'll leave it open to anyone reading... if you haven't already been tagged and want to participate, TAG - you're it!
Thanks to my Mom for digging up Zeus' devil dog pictures from Halloween 2002! He's still a growing pup in these pics, just 1 1/2 years old (for those keeping track, Zeus will turn 7 on March 7th!). I hadn't found them in time for the Dogs on Thursday Halloween parade last week, but here they are now... Happy Spooky Day!
Someone call for a little devil?
Photo shoot over... can I eat it now?
Hey Nichole! Those devil dog pics are great! Have a spooky Halloween!
We are so similar! The telephone ringer is turned off and I hate quacamole too. And the first lottery winnings would be a little house (I'm in an apt now and any house would be a step up).
Oh, see... Now Mugsy's cheesy devil shirt tomorrow will be so lame, but he's going to wear it anyway!
I screen my calls also. I cannot wait to get my own place so I too can shamelessly love a dog of my own.
Zeus is rockin' that costume! He knows how handsome he is, the little devil.
Nichole, guacamole is good! try it you might like.
Thanks for indulging me! I used to dress Bucky in a devil costume, but he wiggles so much it never stayed on him. Zeus is so cute!!

Gratien Candace (December 18, 1873 in Baillif, Guadeloupe – April 11, 1953 in Lormaye, France) was a politician from Guadeloupe who served in the French Chamber of Deputies from 1912 to 1942 and served as vice-president of the French Chamber of Deputies from 1938 to 1940.  He retired from French politics in 1940, declining to become part of the Vichy regime.

Candace attended the First Pan-African Congress, Paris, February 19–22, 1919.

African-American historian and Pan-Africanist W. E. B. Du Bois faulted Candace harshly for a perceived lack of commitment to the interests of the African diaspora, writing "Candace is virulently French. He has no conception of Negro uplift, as apart from French development."

He earned a degree in science at the University of Toulouse and later taught as a professor and was a founder of the École nationale de la France d'Outre-Mer (ENFOM) and the Académie des Sciences Coloniales.

Getting a good picture with little ones takes enthusiastic persuasion and nimble fingers on the shutter release! The resulting pictures surpassed our expectations.
This entry was posted in Frazer Family News, photography on August 27, 2015 by Elizabeth.
Little ones grow up so quickly! Elizabeth and Caleb are learning many new things. It seems Caleb went from crawling to walking in no time! We had opportunities to have Elizabeth and Caleb each stay with us for a week. We loved having them. Elizabeth is a very helpful girl.
She is learning to help in the kitchen too!
Eating outdoors is a lot of fun, and watching the campfire with Uncle Jonathan is interesting too.
The cousins enjoying doing things together, too: from sitting together, playing piano, pushing the wheelbarrow, even making anniversary cakes for their parents!
And of course there is a little friendly competition!

It seems I'm always doing this… I don't keep up with updating our blog and then find myself having to give a quick overview of all that has happened in the last few months. But something is better than nothing, so here I go on yet another blitz through Frazer events. I won't write much, but rather let the pictures do the telling.
June marked my parent's 35th anniversary. We were very glad they could take some time away together this year. Hiking is a favourite of theirs and more beautiful scenery could hardly be wanted.
Evelyn and Stephen also graduated from high school in June.
We've had opportunity to do some family excursions this summer. A few things included canoeing in Frontenac Park, touring the Crystal Mine in Bonsecours, and visiting a botanical garden in Kingsey Falls.
An interest in photography amongst many family members led us to several scenic spots.
As well, we got involved in a project of creating background images for various hymns. We certainly had a great time coming up with creative ideas!
A more ambitious excursion took place at the end of July…Carrying our own tents, clothing, food, etc., four of us headed out on a 250 km bicycle trip down to visit some friends.
Emmental Cheese – success finally!
Of course we still have some animals. Another batch of ducklings arrived in July – 12 of them! These ones aren't selling as quickly as the last ones. They grow up quickly, though! We also acquired a new kitten. The resident barn cat wasn't too sure what to think, but they get along OK.
And who can resist photographing the summer flowers?
Well, that is a rapid glance at some of the Frazer household happenings. Perhaps the next updates will be a little less far apart.
I haven't forgotten them. 🙂 But I decided that they were so special that they would get a post all to themselves… So coming soon (hopefully!): Two cousins!

NGC 1787 (również ESO 85-SC31) – gromada otwarta znajdująca się w gwiazdozbiorze Złotej Ryby. Leży w kierunku Wielkiego Obłoku Magellana, lecz należy do naszej Galaktyki. Odkrył ją John Herschel 25 grudnia 1837 roku. Wiele katalogów i baz obiektów astronomicznych (np. SIMBAD) błędnie określa nazwą NGC 1787 pozornie znacznie mniejszą gromadę SL 178 należącą do Wielkiego Obłoku Magellana, jednak nie pasuje ona do opisu Herschela, który napisał, że obiekt ten jest bardzo duży i wypełnia całe pole widzenia teleskopu. SL 178 widoczna jest we wschodniej części NGC 1787.

California Health Care Facility, DeWitt Nelson Correctional Annex
The California Department of Corrections & Rehabilitation (CDCR) DeWitt Nelson Correctional Annex (DNCA) renovated and expanded the former DeWitt Nelson Youth Correctional Facility for use as an adult mental healthcare institution. The DNCA Project is the third major contract at the CDCR's facility in southeast Stockton. The DNCA Project will convert the existing youth correctional facility into a state of the art Level II Adult Male Housing Facility, consisting of three new 270 celled housing units and four renovated dorm housing units, for a total capacity of 1,133 beds. The project will achieve a LEED Silver certification. The DNCA Project was delivered under a design-build contract in order to meet the Project's aggressive schedule which required that the Project be designed and constructed within 18 months from issuance of Notice to Proceed. The DNCA Project was one of several projects completed at the California Health Care Facility (CHCF); the total cost of the CHCF Project was approximately $900 million.
The prime contractor for the $188 million DNCA Project was Hensel Phelps Construction Co. The multi-disciplined design team was led by HOK Architects. Kjeldsen, Sinnock & Neudeck, Inc. (KSN), provided the civil engineering and surveying services for all the on-site and off-site infrastructure improvements for the DNCA Project, including grading, drainage, sanitary sewer, domestic water, fire water, access roads, parking, traffic circulation and concrete hardscape. The scope of the DNCA Project also included all on-site and off-site infrastructure including perimeter security fence, and support structures located outside the perimeter security fence. The support structures included eleven 45-foot high guard towers, a site entrance gatehouse and armory, a telecommunications and lock shop building, a central utility plant, a materials storage warehouse and other non-secure buildings.
KSN worked closely with HOK Architects and the CDCR Project team during the design phase of the Project to coordinate the scope and schedule of the civil site improvements, and to obtain the approval of the plans and specifications from local and State agencies. The total construction cost of the civil site improvements was approximately $8,000,000.

Satanists want Baphomet next to the 10 Commandments – Mainstreaming Ritual Human Sacrifice
August 22, 2018 by YCNightingale Leave a Comment
(Satanists want this statue of Baphomet erected in Little Rock AR, but it hasn't been)
Kevin Barrett writes that the Washington Post is mainstreaming Satanic child ritual sacrifice.
Satanists control the banking system. They wish to expand their credit monopoly into a monopoly over information, expression, and behavior.
We are being inducted into their satanic cult, the Illuminati (Cabalism, Communism, Freemasonry.) Their aim is to enslave or destroy us. If we "tolerate" Satanism, they will succeed.
"America's military and law enforcement communities, like the mainstream media, have been corrupted by the Satanists who create our currency out of nothing by lending it into existence at interest. "Men arrested for trading in child rape are often in significant positions in our national security infrastructure. The AP's investigation confirms military men in leadership positions were most frequently arrested on child sex abuse charges."
By Kevin Barrett | henrymakow.com
Is the world going crazy?
In a Washington Post article last Friday, Satanists are presented as cute, cuddly, harmless pranksters who "don't actually worship Satan" but instead use the avatar of ultimate evil to "promote humanistic pluralistic values." They are, the Post tells us, "atheists, humanists and free-speech activists. They tend to use satanic imagery to mess with governments they feel are violating the separation of church and state."
The Post doesn't even mention Satanists' propensity for child trafficking, human sacrifice, and various combinations thereof.
America's epidemic of Satanic ritual child abuse reaches the highest levels of power. This is documented in Nick Bryant's The Franklin Scandal and the film Conspiracy of Silence. The Washington Post (complicit in the Franklin coverup) sounds positively creepy saying that the Satanists "added two little kids at (Baphomet's) side to make the statue more publicly palatable." Really, WaPo?! Child rape, ritual torture, and murder are "publicly palatable"?
George H.W. Bush, whose White House offered "midnight tours" to Larry King's child sex slaves, famously told journalist Sara McClendon: "If the people knew what we had done, they would chase us down the street and lynch us."
When that lynch mob finally forms, will the Washington Post also feel its wrath?
The Washington Post covered up the Bush 1 and Bush 2 White House pedophilia scandals…but the Washington Times didn't.
But let's give credit where it's due. The Post is not entirely wrong when it equates atheist humanism with Satanism. Historically those two "religions" are two sides of the same coin, promoted by the same people for the same purposes.
Atheists are at war with God. It isn't that they doubt or reject this or that specific belief. They just can't stand the whole concept, and they can't shut up about it. ("The problem with atheists is they can't stop talking about God.")
Satan is the symbol of all things anti-God. Therefore it is natural and inevitable that atheists should tend to take Satan as their mascot.
And since atheists are people, and since people are naturally religious creatures who seek symbols and rituals, atheists will tend to use Satan, the symbol of anti-God, as their means of transcendent religiosity. And since human sacrifice is a time-honored means of invoking the transcendent/numinous (hence the ubiquity of human sacrifice cross-culturally) atheists, who reject the traditions that ground morality in metaphysics, will often be tempted to "get their religious kicks" through ritual human sacrifice. (What better way to reject the commandment "thou shalt not kill"?)
MAINSTREAMING EVIL
The Washington Post notes that the Satanists want Baphomet next to the 10 Commandments as an attack on the latter. The Post claims they're doing so on behalf of religious liberty and pluralism. But wait a minute–why would anyone oppose the 10 Commandments? I am Muslim, so I don't accept the unquestionable authenticity of the 10 commandments as given in the Torah. But the commandments against murder, stealing, adultery, bearing false witness, dishonoring parents, covetousness, etc. seem reasonable. Neither I nor any other Muslim would object to putting the 10 Commandments in the public square. Nor would any sensible Hindu, Buddhist, Taoist, Sikh, or Native American animist.
So who hates the 10 Commandments? The Satanists, that's who! Just ask the founder of modern (Zionist) Satanism, Shabbatai Tsvi, the self-proclaimed Jewish Messiah cum Antichrist whose career culminated in the year 1666. (Tsvi announced his messiah-hood on June 18, 1666…that June is month #6, and 18 is 6+6+6, is of course purely coincidental.)
According to Israeli investigative journalist Barry Chamish's Shabtai Tzvi, Labor Zionism and the Holocaust, Sabbatai Tsvi declared himself Messiah and said (as his disciple Alister Crowley would more or less reiterate three centuries later) that "God now permitted everything"–including breaking all of the Commandments! Worse, he "declared that all of the thirty-six major biblical sins were now permitted and instructed some of his followers that it was their duty to perform such sins in order to hasten the Redemption.
Tsvi, the founder of Zionism, taught the systematic violation of the 10 Commandments. Among the sins most highly recommended by Tsvi: murder and sexual violations. These could be handily combined in human sacrifice sex rituals.
Tsvi's successor Jacob Frank "extended the paradoxical teachings of Shabbatai Zvi that the coming of the (Zionist) messianic age had transformed sexual prohibitions of the Bible into permissions or even obligations. According to Frank, engaging in sexual orgies now became the means to purify the soul from its sins." Today, when the Israelis broadcast violent pornography at the Palestinians in an attempt to destroy their culture and their souls, they are practicing the Satanism of Zionism's founder, Sabbatai Tsvi, and his disciple Jacob Frank.
Jacob Frank's religion of Satanism took over the Western world by way of the Rothschild financial dynasty. According to Rabbi Marvin Antelman, quoted in Chamish:
"Frankfurt at the time was the headquarters of the Jesuit Adam Weishaupt, founder of the Illuminati, as well as the Rothschild Brothers financial empire. This is worth repeating: Frankfurt was the birthplace of both the Illuminati and the Rothschild empire. When Jacob Frank entered the city, the alliance between the two had already begun. Weishaupt provided the conspiratorial resources of the Jesuit Order, while the Rothschilds contributed the money. What was missing was a means to spread the agenda of the Illuminati and that the Frankists added with their network of agents throughout the Christian and Islamic worlds. Jacob Frank became instantly wealthy because he was given a nice handout by Meyer Amshel Rothschild of Frankfurt. " (p.206)
SATANISM IN OUR LIFEBLOOD (BANKING)
The Rothschild network of world banking dynasties now completely controls the finances of the West. Its headquarters is the Bank of International Settlements in Basel, Switzerland. Its religion is Satanism. Its rites are those of human sacrifice and sexual violation. Its preferred victims are children. And its activities are relentlessly promoted in the mainstream media, as exemplified by the above-quoted story in the Washington Post–which like all major American media outlets (and indeed most major corporations) is under the control of the Satanist banksters who fund it.
The domination of Western finance and media by this Satanist banking cabal is the main reason why "the illegal trade in children being raped and violently abused is at 'a level of epidemic proportions.' This is according to an internal government memo obtained by the Canadian press." (Globe and Mail, 4 July 2016, quoted in Lori Handrahan's Epidemic: America's Trade in Child Rape.)
America's military and law enforcement communities, like the mainstream media, have been corrupted by the Satanists who create our currency out of nothing by lending it into existence at interest. According to Handrahan (p.64) "Men arrested for trading in child rape are often in significant positions in our national security infrastructure. The AP's investigation confirms military men in leadership positions were most frequently arrested on child sex abuse charges."
MORAL CORRUPTION
Here is just one of countless examples: America's chief scientist monitoring global nuclear activity, David O'Brien, was arrested in May 2013 on child pornography charges for possessing a large collection of, and trading in films of "the brutal rape and torture of very young children, often infants, and toddlers." O'Brien, sentenced to five years in prison, worked out of Patrick Air Force Base's Technical Applications Center.
Was O'Brien (left) a Satanist? Very likely. The US military is so infiltrated by (Zionist-sponsored) Satanists that it actually promoted self-styled ultra-Satanist and credibly accused child rapist Michael Aquino to head all US military psychological warfare programs! Aquino, who was kicked out of Anton LaVey's Church of Satan for being too evil (quite an accomplishment) was at the center of a child-rape scandal at the Presidio Day Care facility in San Francisco. But rather than jail or dismiss him, the military promoted him!
So why is the Washington Post suddenly selling Satanism to its naive secular humanist readers? It's no accident that both Satanism and atheism have together "come out of the closet" in the post-9/11 era. The events of September 11th, 2001 were designed as an earth-shaking human sacrifice spectacle to cement the power of the satanic bankers and send the message "we're in charge now, there is nothing you can do about it." The choice of the two main Freemasonic symbols as targets–the Twin Towers (Joachim and Boaz) and the Pentagram–made it all-too-obvious that 9/11 was not just a coup d'état in America, but also in Freemasonry, whose highest levels are dominated by Satanists.
The 9/11 human sacrifice was orchestrated by experts in the "creation and maintenance of public myths." They used the spectacle of the murderous big lie "right out in the open" to launch a war on Islam, the strongest of the traditional Godly religions, and to promote (the new) atheism and Satanism as the 21st century's de facto Western religion.
How much longer will the USA and the West continue to descend ever-deeper into Satanism?
I predict that a backlash against the new hegemonic religion of secular-humanist atheism (the "lite" version) i.e. Satanism (the "uncensored" version) will soon erupt into a Fifth Great Awakening. The USA and the West are currently in a state of religious chaos. This is the hidden cause behind the USA's Civil War 2.
Consider this recent Daily Kos article: "Teaching the Holocaust in the South After Charlottesville." The author, a Holocaust Studies professor, is horrified by students who visibly reject her efforts to indoctrinate them into the new secular-atheistic-Zio-Satanic "religion" of Holocaustianity (just as most ordinary Americans will reject WaPo's efforts to indoctrinate them into Satanism).
Even Israeli young people are rejecting Holocaustianity. In recent incidents, Jewish high school students have been caught "mooning the Holocaust" by "exposing their behinds at a Nazi death camp" and dancing naked at Auschwitz.
These incidents show young people reacting instinctively against the hegemonic anti-religion religion of their elders. Expect more and more of this over the next decade. Growing revulsion over religious chaos will eventually lead to another big religious revival. The question is not if, but when…and what form it will take.

This recording collects three vocal works by Benjamin Britten composed in different stages of his career and performed by some very good ensembles: they are St Nicolas, Christ's Nativity and Psalm 150.
The cantata St Nicolas was commissioned to Britten by Lancing College (Sussex), Peter Pears' old school, to celebrate its centenary in 1948. The text was provided by Eric Crozier, who had previously worked with Britten on other projects and who was inspired for this one by some legendary episodes from the life of the saint. Britten wrote the cantata in just three weeks and carefully balanced the orchestral, choral and solo parts in regard to the performers' skills, so that only tenor, percussionists and a string quartet had professional parts (the tenor part was written for Pears). St Nicolas was performed for the first time at the first Aldenburgh Festival in June 1948, while the performance at the Lancing College took place the following month. Both performances were conducted by Britten himself.
Christ's Nativity (originally called Thy King's Birthday) was written in 1931, while Britten was still a student at the Royal College of Music, and was performed in its entirety for the first time only in 1991. Only two of the five Christmas carols were known to the public during the composer's lifetime: New Prince, New Pomp and Sweet was the Song, both performed in at the Aldenburgh Festival, in 1955 and 1966 respectively. As for Psalm 150, it was written to celebrate the centenary of Britten's preparatory school, South Lodge, in Lowestoft (re-named Old Buckenham Hall School), which he attended from 1923 to 1928.
The present recording is of very good, even excellent quality. It is sung and played by different choruses and orchestras, with the only link of the conductor for two of them.
St Nicolas is an impressive work thanks to tenor Philip Langridge, the Tallis Chamber Choir and the English Chamber Orchestra, directed by Steuart Bedford, but its music is a little too pompous for my tastes. Anyway, I think that the Tallis Chamber Choir is worth a listening and has something magnetic in it, thanks to its vigorous and necessarily dry singing.
The BBC Singers are marvellous in the Christ's Nativity (and the Christ's Nativity is amazing too) and gives us a moment of peace and meditation with their impeccable, highly evocative singing a cappella. The most beautiful piece is, in my opinion, the second one (Sweet was the Song), with its almost Medieval atmosphere and its quiet and inspired singing, but if you prefer more animated, vivacious pieces, you cannot fail to admire the next one, Preparations.
The shortest work of the album, Psalm 150, is not the less interesting, since it is a pleasure to listen to the little but competent angels of the New London Children's, very well trained and clearly enthusiast. The London Schools Symphony Orchestra, for its part, plays with an appreciable, resolute way.

Q: Load ViewController as child view in main view from other child view I´m coding an application using swift3/xcode 8. My application have a central view controller, called MenuViewController, which is responsible for the side menu.
Inside this one, i load the other views as child views, so in this way I can use the side menu in all other views.
But I´m in doubt now: In a specific view controller I have a table view, which have a method to perform an action on selecting an item. This action calls other
view and pass a parameter.
So, how do I load this view in the BaseViewController with this parameter? Is it possible?
Please let me know if it is not clear....
Thank you!
Update 1:
I´m using a solution I found interesting:
Cocoacasts
Basically I have this code on MenuViewController:
Declare the view to be loaded in MenuViewController:
    lazy var filamentoViewController: FilamentoViewController = {

        let storyboard = storyboard.instantiateViewController(withIdentifier: "FilamentoViewController") as! FilamentoViewController
        self.addViewControllerAsChildViewController(childViewController: viewController)
        return viewController
    }()

Adds the viewcontroller as child in MenuViewController:
    private fun addViewControllerAsChildViewController(childViewController: UIViewController)
    {
      addChildViewController(childViewController)
      view.addSubView(childViewController.view)
      childViewController.view.frame = view.bounds
      childViewController.view.autoResizingMask = [.flexibleWidth, .flexibleHeight]
      childViewController.didMove(toParentViewController: self)
    }

Code in FilamentoViewController which calls other viewcontroller:
    func tableView(tableView: UITableView, didSelectRowAtIndexPath indexPath: IndexPath)
    {
      let editFilamentoViewController:EditFilamentoViewController = EditFilamentoViewController()
      editFilamentoViewController.cod = indexPath.row
      self.presentViewController(editFilamentoViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)
    }

The code
      self.presentViewController(editFilamentoViewController, animated: true, completion: nil)

is the one I want do load into MenuViewController.
Update 2:
MenuViewController is a CentreViewController. I load the other views in the center and the menu comes from left.

A: There is a built-in controller for your kind of requirement(i.e UISplitViewController) , Have you considered this?

Can I start a virtual lab router without a Veeam Surebackup Job, while preserving the virtual lab router configuration ?
Yes, you can. Virtual Lab router VM does not disappear when you stop your SureBackup and can be found in ESXi console. You can also make a replica or create a backup of running Virtual Lab router.


General Motors Co., Ford Motor Co. and Toyota Motor Corp. said in a statement they are joining forces with automotive engineering group SAE International to establish autonomous vehicle "safety guiding principles to help inform standards development."The group will also "work to safely advance testing, pre-competitive development and deployment," they added.
Regulators in the United States have been grappling with how to regulate self-driving cars, with other countries watching closely to see how implementation of the emerging technology pans out.
Last year, U.S. lawmakers, unable to agree on a way forward, abandoned a bid to pass sweeping legislation to speed the introduction of vehicles without steering wheels and human controls onto roads, but may resurrect the effort later this year.
Last month, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration asked the public if robotic cars should be allowed on streets without steering wheels or brake pedals as they try to set the first legal boundaries for their design. NHTSA's existing rules prohibit vehicles without human controls.
A fatal 2018 accident involving a self-driving vehicle operated by Uber Technologies Inc. and two deadly plane crashes involving highly automated Boeing 737 MAX airliners have put a spotlight on the ability of regulators to assess the safety of advanced systems that substitute machine intelligence for human judgment.

Q: Facebook - problems with "august_2012" platform migration I am getting this warning message in an iOS app using FB auth:
ERROR:This endpoint has been deprecated.To temporarily reenable it,you may disable the "august_2012" platform migration. It will be disable permanently on August 1,2012.
The issue is to disable that migration for now. But, it was already disabled, so not sure how to fix this quickly - as opposed to updating the app and pushing it back out to the store which we will do.

A: I solved it by using the newest ShareKit Version (0.2.1), which I downloaded from GitHut but the same version is also avaliable on getsharekit.com/install.
Next i added the folder "ShareKit" located in "Classes" by drag&dropping in my XCode project (as usual).
For safety reasons, the previouse configuration file has been changed into a class. Set the configuration data for the sharingservices (FB, Twitter,...) in the class "DefaultSHKConfigurator.m". (Btw. I subclassed the DefaultSHKConfigurator so i still have the original structure)
To setup FB, change the settings:
- (NSString*)facebookAppId {
return @"..."; //app-id from facebook (create fb-app first, if not already done)
}

- (NSString*)facebookLocalAppId {
    return @"";
}

Than in the application:didFinishLaunchingWithOptions: Method, set the ShareKonfiguration.
- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application didFinishLaunchingWithOptions:(NSDictionary *)launchOptions {

DefaultSHKConfigurator *configurator = [[DefaultSHKConfigurator alloc] init];

[SHKConfiguration sharedInstanceWithConfigurator:configurator];

[configurator release];

//init the rest
..
}

After that, add an URL Scheme (in XCode 4.x select your project, select one target, click "Add"->"Add URL Type") and set the URL Scheme to "fb+your fb-app id" (mine looked like "fb35486..").
To let FB open your app and the user is immeditly able to post content, add
- (void) openFBWithURL:(NSURL*) URL {

if (URL != nil) {

    NSString* scheme = [URL scheme];

    NSString* prefix = [NSString stringWithFormat:@"fb%@", SHKCONFIG(facebookAppId)];

        if ([scheme hasPrefix:prefix]) {

            [SHKFacebook handleOpenURL:URL];
    }
}
}

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application openURL:(NSURL *)url sourceApplication:(NSString *)sourceApplication annotation:(id)annotation {

        [self openFBWithURL:url];

    return YES;
}

- (BOOL)application:(UIApplication *)application handleOpenURL:(NSURL *)url {

        [self openFBWithURL:url];

    return YES;
}

Than it should be setup and ready for use.

Piccolo-Quintett ist der Kurzname eines Quintetts für Piccolo und Streichquartett von Graham Waterhouse. Das 1989 komponierte Werk wurde 1990 uraufgeführt. 2002 veröffentlichte der Zimmermann Musikverlag das Werk unter dem Titel "Quintett op. 26 für Piccoloflöte, 2 Violinen, Viola und Violoncello".

Geschichte
Der Komponist Graham Waterhouse war 1989 Cellist im Orchester des Schleswig-Holstein-Musik-Festivals, das damals von Sergiu Celibidache geleitet wurde. Die Piccolo-Spielerin des Orchesters regte eine Quintettkomposition an, Celibidache beeinflusste das Werk. Das einsätzige Quintett von ungefähr 16 Minuten ist in Sonatenform, gerahmt durch eine langsame Einleitung, die am Ende verändert wieder erscheint und dann in eine virtuose Coda mündet. Die Klangfarbe des Piccolo wird mit den Streichern ähnlich verbunden wie in Klarinettenquintetten. Das Quintett wurde am 1. Januar 1990 in London in einem Privatkonzert aufgeführt.

Das Quintett wurde 2002 im Zimmermann Musikverlag veröffentlicht. Es wurde am 13. Oktober 2002 im Rahmen des 1. Sergiu Celibidache Festival in München aufgeführt in einem Gesprächskonzert, in dem der Komponist den Einfluss Celibidaches auf das Werk erläuterte. Es musizierten Katharina Kutnewsky, Daniel Nodel, Anja Traub, Gunter Pretzel und der Komponist.

Am 5. Oktober 2003 wurde das Quintett im Gasteig im Graham Waterhouse Kammerkonzert aufgeführt, gespielt von Ulrich Biersack, Odette Couch, Kirsty Hilton, Isabel Charisius und dem Komponisten.

Das Quintet wurde 2007 von Gudrun Hinze und anderen Mitgliedern des Gewandhausorchester Leipzig auf CD aufgenommen, und erschien unter dem Titel piccolo concert, kombiniert unter anderem mit Antonio Vivaldi's Concerto für flautino, RV 443, und Erwin Schulhoffs Concertino.

TJ Denzer's Reviews
At age 3, TJ Denzer ran away from his family on a vacation in Colorado. They found him at the local arcade, standing on a chair and playing SNK's World Heroes. Years later, TJ still has an obsessive passion for video games, from the technically sound to the absolutely artistic. When not digging into a game with his wife, he's hunting down good beer to enjoy with bad movies and friends.

8 / 10 - Scott Pilgrim vs The World: The Game Complete Edition
I'll say it plainly. I love Scott Pilgrim vs. The World: The Game. I loved it 10 years ago and I've only come to appreciate it more since. I identify with Stephen Stills as talented, but also very sleepy, so I delight in being able to play as him in a game again. Yet for all of my love, it definitely has a tedious grind that might annoy people that aren't into River City Ransom-style beat'em-ups. That said, with or without the movie or comics it's based off of, I'd still consider it one of the best-in-class of side-scrolling co-op brawlers
8 / 10 - Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond
I feel that when it comes to everything Medal of Honor: Above and Beyond has to offer, Respawn Entertainment has gone out of their way to show us that not only does the Medal of Honor franchise still have meaningful life left in it, but there are things this game does that other games can look to as a benchmark of how to deliver a fully fleshed-out and visceral action VR experience.
7 / 10 - Warhammer 40,000: Battle Sister
Warhammer 40,000: Battle Sister is the kind of game I would expect out of this franchise. It's bloody, visceral, and throws all sorts of enemies at you to cleanse through the mighty judgement of bullet and blade for the Emperor. The campaign is passable and the levels can sometimes feel uninspired with a few notable exceptions, but all of it feels like a vehicle to move you to the next fight. When those fights are up close and personal, Battle Sister sings with slashings and shooting a-plenty. When things get a little more long distance, the seams start to show a little much. That said, if you're a Warhammer fan or just looking for a mostly solid action VR experience, Warhammer 40K: Battle Sister has more than enough ammunition and sharpened metal to please the Emperor.
8 / 10 - Empire of Sin
There's a lot going on in Empire of Sin. Romero Games and Paradox Interactive build quite a hybrid of business management, character growth, and turn-based combat, and the 1920s Prohibition-era backdrop makes for an interesting story. The gang leaders are varied in so many ways between their business, combat specialties, and personal stories. Meanwhile, the overall flow of business expansion, hostile takeovers, and diplomacy or confrontation with other gangs also makes for a mostly engaging gameplay loop.
8 / 10 - Demon's Souls (2020 Remake)
As far as an action-RPG goes, Demon's Souls is as tough, but rewarding as I'd expect a Soulborne game would be. Bluepoint did an incredible job of pulling this 2009 title into 2020 and giving all the gloss and polish the PlayStation 5 can wring out of it while still playing perfectly smooth and mostly free of loading.
9 / 10 - Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity
Hyrule Warriors: Age of Calamity is a game no Zelda or Musou fan should pass up.
8 / 10 - Disc Room
Disc Room wants to cut you in so many ways. It wants to chew you up, dismantle you, and make you say a swear or 50 creatively woven into the same sentence. It's bullet hell without the regular therapy of being able to return fire. But for all of those aspects, it's also horribly addicting. The ease of picking up where you left off and trying your darndest to survive just a little bit longer to unlock a room left me putting down my controller, rubbing my head, and then often picking it up to say, "this will be the time I get it. This time." It's not a ridiculously long or complex romp. But it also doesn't really need to be. It knows what it wants to be. It wants to be your murderer. And the only way you're going to thwart it is by surviving just long enough to open its next doors and beat its myriad of challenges.
9 / 10 - Amnesia: Rebirth
Amnesia: Rebirth is a solid return to form for Frictional. It has everything I've come to expect from the folks behind SOMA and Amnesia: The Dark Descent, but ups the horror game in meaningful ways appropriate to this particular entry.
8 / 10 - I Am Dead
I Am Dead has a very interesting story to tell, a colorful and varied environment in which to tell it, and a very cool way of going about the telling. The use of ghostly powers to explore, but never directly interact with the world, yet still solve puzzles was quite fun and unique. The more I unraveled of the mystery, the more intrigued I was and the more I wanted to know about each of the people presented to me, their lives, their connections, and the island they lived on.
9 / 10 - Hades
Whether you're looking for a challenging action game or just want to enjoy a beautifully illustrated and orchestrated story, Hades might be my preferred recommendation for romps through Hell.

Benjamin Wilder named Tumamoc Hill's interim director

UA Institute of the Environment's desert ecology and botany research scientist Benjamin Wilder has been hired as the interim director of Tumamoc Hill.
Benjamin Wilder, a desert ecology and botany research scientist for the UA Institute of the Environment, has been named interim director for Tucson's microcosm of desert life, Tumamoc Hill.
Tumamoc Hill has a long history, according to Wilder. Tumamoc's role in desert botany research began in 1902 when the famous philanthropist Andrew Carnegie provided funding for scientific investigations on desert plant life.
RELATED: Hiking trails to elevate your weekend
The UA has participated in research at Tumamoc Hill since 1906, according to the Tumamoc: People & Habitats website timeline. But the UA assumed full responsibility of research when it purchased Tumamoc Hill in 1960, promising to use the land solely for research and education purposes.
"While it is a research center and an ecological reserve, it's also important for people who aren't scientists to walk on it," Wilder said. "We hope to educate people about the Sonoran Desert."
Wilder will be succeeding Michael Rosenzweig who assumed his role as director of the desert laboratory in 2007.
"Being interim director of Tumamoc Hill means engaging the UA science community and the general public in increasing our understanding of the desert environment and how people have, and are, interacting with the desert environment," said Karl Flessa, a UA geosciences professor.
According to Wilder, he intends to do just that.
"I have the intention of making Tumamoc Hill a very popular site for research again," Wilder said. "It's my hope that many researchers use Tumamoc Hill as their base of operations and that the public will gain some knowledge about the Sonoran Desert."
Wilder's role as interim director will not be his first position at Tumamoc Hill. He started there as an undergraduate working under the guidance of his mentor, Richard Felger.
Some of Tumamoc Hill's research methods include plant examination over time, fossil investigations and sample collecting, according to Wilder. These findings show the scientists at Tumamoc how plant life has evolved over thousands of years.
"The experiments we do show us that the desert we see today is pretty new," Wilder said. "The desert we see today used to not be desert."
Other work done on Tumamoc includes research on the megafauna extinction, according to Wilder.
"The climate has changed substantially," Wilder said. "This is a major factor in many of the changes we have observed."
Wilder has had a part in innumerable experiences directing and conducting experiments, according to Flessa.
RELATED: The abundance of cacti in Tucson keeps the Sonoran Desert full of life and beauty
"[Wilder] helped to found, and now directs, N-Gen, a binational group of scientists and social scientists who work on the Sonoran Desert," Flessa said. "In addition, [Wilder] and Hector Zamora, one of my graduate students, are working on a project that studies the changing hydrology and plant communities in western Sonora."
According to Flessa, Wilder can help make Tumamoc Hill be the place where scientists from all over connect with the people of the Sonoran Desert.
Wilder has the intention to welcome the general Tucson public and allow them to use Tumamoc Hill's space as a recreational walking area as well as an educational platform.
"Peoples' respectful use of the site is welcome," Wilder said. "Active research is being taken, but if people walk up the paved section, we welcome and hope to increase their appreciation of Tumamoc Hill."

Wolf Backs Controversial 'Vaccine Passport' Proposal
Posted to Politics March 30, 2021 by Charlie O'Neill
Gov. Tom Wolf endorsed the idea of a so-called "vaccine passport" during a stop in Dauphin County on Tuesday, comparing it to the requirement Americans face when traveling abroad. Republicans in the General Assembly, however, have already signaled their opposition.
Vaccine passports are in the news since word leaked over the weekend the Biden administration was working on creating a federally-approved way for people to prove they've been vaccinated against COVID-19, most likely relying on smartphone technology. New York state has already launched the nation's first state-run vaccine passport system, the Excelsior Pass, projected to be in use by arts and entertainment venues by April 2.
The White House now says it plans to leave the development of any vaccine passport system to the private sector.
Wolf revealed his support while visiting a mass vaccination site. Asked if he supports vaccine passports, he said "yes." When pressed on the issue Wolf initially said, "You used to have to have one when you traveled overseas." He added, "I would think that's a fairly easy thing to do."
Many Republicans, like Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis, don't agree. Add Pennsylvania House Majority Leader Kerry Benninghoff (R-Center and Mifflin) to that list as well.
"Every Pennsylvanian who wants a COVID-19 vaccine should have the opportunity to get one, and we are working hard to make sure that happens sooner rather than later. However, those who cannot receive the vaccine due to medical reasons, arbitrary vaccine deployment phases, or personal choice should not be discriminated against, especially as we work toward herd immunity," Benninghoff said. "The idea of so-called vaccine passports is an opening to unfathomable government intrusion into people's personal lives, particularly their private medical information. I hope the Wolf administration and my fellow lawmakers join me in opposing this ill-conceived idea."
Benninghoff said his concern is rooted in Pennsylvania's pattern of following New York's example in responding to COVID-19. The Wolf administration's coordination with New York will be part of an investigation by the House Oversight Committee on the handling of nursing homes during the pandemic.
Forced vaccination is already a topic of discussion in the legislator. Sen. Doug Mastriano (R-Adams, Cumberland, Franklin, and York), a potential 2022 gubernatorial candidate, has introduced SB 741, the "Medical Freedom Act." According to the co-sponsorship memo, "The state government shall not impose a vaccination upon ourselves – or our children – without consent. Nor should the government mandate that employers require vaccinations."
Wolf did say at the end of his answer, "if that were something that came from the General Assembly, yeah, I'd support that." It's unknown if he feels a "vaccine passport" would need legislative approval or not. Based on today's statement from Leader Benninghoff, who controls the House calendar, it doesn't appear there is support.
