What should I wear...this is a question that we all are faced with every single day. We wake up and look at the day ahead and decide what clothes we should wear. We think about where it is that we have to go on a given day, what we have to do, what the weather will be like. If we have to work, we may put on a uniform or professional attire. What you wear to work is used to show your focus and commitment to your job. If you have the day off, you might decide to stay in and wear pajamas all day, the comfier the better as you hope to relax. Every day we face this question of "What to Wear??" This question is deeply important because what we wear is often a gateway for others to get a glimpse of who we are. I wear this wake forest hat a lot, so much so that Lily has washed it multiple times and it's hardly even black anymore. This hat serves multiple purposes. Through this hat I can tell others that I have a connection to Wake Forest University. Whether by love of sports teams or affinity for Wake Forest academics, I wear this hat to display to others around me that I accept WFU as a part of my identity. In the same way I have UGA clothing, and others here may rep App State, Texas, and many other sports teams or organizations. Our clothes can serve the purpose of conveying our identity and our hearts to others around us. For Christmas this year, I received an article of clothing from Lily's parents that has great significance for me, a camo jacket. This camo jacket is great because it is very durable and is specifically made to provide protection from the cold and the rain. Even more important though, this jacket is a symbol of Lily's family and there history of hunting. To be gifted my first camo jacket, to me represents respect and honor from her family. What we choose to wear everyday, and the clothes that we have in our closets,says a lot about who we are.
In our scripture for today we can see the importance of clothing expressed. However, not in the sense of physical articles of clothing. Verse 12 instructs to clothe yourself with compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience. As a t shirt or a hat can be used to share with others a glimpse of our identity, the way in which we interact with others broadcasts who we are. If we were to look in the verses preceding our scripture, we find that the colossians were instructed to get rid of previous identifying qualities. Anger, wrath, malice, slander, and abusive languag e from their mouths. These previous qualities would have served the purpose of disconnecting them from each other, and their community. These qualities may have often led them to harm even those that were closest to them whether it be in a physical or emotional manner. These qualities also would distort the perception of what is true. By carrying themselves in a negative, harmful manner, they created an identity of disconnection and pain.
Verse 12 was written to counter the life that the colossians had been living and provide a guideline for new life, a life that mirrored the life of Christ. Where there had been disconnect and harm, a life clothed in compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience could be a life that builds relationships within and throughout the community. Being clothed in compassion and kindness can take the form of listening to the concerns of others and de-escalating disagreements among each other within the community. Practicing the art of agreeing to disagree. When covered in humility, meekness, and patience, one can avoid judgements and hubris in order to build connections and relationships throughout their community. These new articles of clothing serve the purpose of not just telling us how to live each day, but highlight the moments when we may be at odd with one another.
Verse 13 goes on to express the importance of forgiving one another. If we have clothed ourselves in compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience, then we are equipped to come together as one body of people and continue to always welcome others in. With groups of people and relationships, there will be without fail, disagreements and complaints regarding those who we come in contact with. Instead of holding this complaint and sharing it with others, verse 13 stresses the importance that we must forgive one another just as the Lord has forgiven each one of us.
All of these new articles of clothing we have been instructed to wear are exceedingly important in representing the Kingdom of God. There is one, however, that our scripture has called us to hold above all. That article would be one of love. Above all, our scripture says, clothe yourselves with love, which binds everything together in perfect harmony. Without love, clothing ourselves in compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, and patience becomes so much harder. Love is the driving force that gives us the ability to always clothe ourselves in the correct article of clothing that others need in that moment in time. Love reigns over all.
Yesterday, as Lily and I returned home from our holiday trip to family, we had an event that to me expresses the importance of clothing yourself in compassion, kindness, humility, meekness, patience, and love. For the past few months, since we have gotten Ruby, I have had the opportunity to meet and befriend a young boy in our apartment community who often plays in the courtyard in the afternoons. I have stopped to toss a football with him multiple times each week and for Christmas Lily and I decided to get him a new football. After we returned, having picked up Ruby at her "Dog Hotel" Lily set out to walk Ruby and I made the trip to the grocery store to get what we needed. A few minutes later called me all distraught, as Ruby and Lily had been walking, our friend who I throw the football with and his Mom walked by and he wanted to pet Ruby. However, as he petted her, she got spooked and in a moment of fear she barked at him and scratched him. The young boys mom became afraid and told Lily she did not want him near Ruby ever again. Lily, however, made sure to get their apartment number so that I could later come and apologize and give him his new football. A couple of hours later, as I walked to their apartment, I pondered just what I would say and how I would be an example of humility, meekness, and love in spite of the incident. I found as I opened the door a mom who was scared but thankful for the compassion shown to her son and our willingness to apologize, to ask forgiveness, and to also show love to her son in the form of a Christmas gift. This gave me the opportunity to spend some time in their home to learn about the struggles that they face and to have the opportunity to show them support. As we start a new year and continue our celebration of new life in Jesus, we have the opportunity to ask again the question of what will we wear? Will we wear compassion, kindness, and love, in hopes of building community and relationships? How do we hope to express our identity to others as we move into this new chapter? Just as Lily and I had the opportunity to build relationships in community in spite of conflict, may this year for each of us be an opportunity to show compassion, love, and kindness, everyday.

'Swan Song' writer-director Benjamin Cleary on how Mahershala Ali went 'all the way' for his dual roles [EXCLUSIVE VIDEO INTERVIEW]
Kevin Jacobsen	Kevin_Jacobsen
Oscar-winning filmmaker Benjamin Cleary drew on his own feelings about mortality with his new Apple TV+ film, "Swan Song," which tells the futuristic story of a dying man who clones himself so his family doesn't have to grieve. The director lost three friends over the course of three years, which set off some profound existential questions in his mind, namely what would happen if he died or if someone he loved died. "All of these things as a writer and a filmmaker, they end up bubbling up from the subconscious," says Cleary in an exclusive new interview for Gold Derby. "In a sense, I'd been thinking about things like that for a long time." Watch the full interview above.
SEEAnnie Beauchamp interview: 'Swan Song' production designer
With "Swan Song" being set in the future, there are some major technological advancements depicted throughout the film, from AR screens to the cloning process itself. To work out the details of those sci-fi elements, Cleary conversed with futurists and scientists about where our modern-day technology is heading. "The amazing thing was that every single person I talked to, with all the elements of tech that were in the movie, said it's a matter of when, not if, that this tech was going to happen," he reveals. Thus, everything we see in the film is entirely plausible. But Cleary still wanted to keep the story focused on the human drama behind it, feeling that delving too much into the science would "rob from the human story at the heart of this."
Luckily, Cleary had a great collaborator in Mahershala Ali, who stars as Cameron, the dying man, and his clone, sometimes sharing the screen with himself. As Cleary recalls, Ali spent a great deal of time thinking about the physicality and the differences in how these two characters would carry themselves, down to the heaviness of Cameron's lungs compared to his clone's. "We spoke a huge amount about the questions at the heart of the story on set," notes Cleary. "Hearing an actor get into that beautiful level of intricacy, I just knew I had a collaborator there that was gonna go all the way."
"Swan Song" also marks Cleary's feature directorial debut, having won an Oscar in 2016 for the live-action short film "Stutterer." He admits he feels "insanely lucky" to have assembled such a great cast, with Naomie Harris, Awkwafina and Glenn Close filling out the key supporting roles. "It was magic."

Program to develop rural literature kicks off
In Uncategorized on December 24, 2010 at 4:36 am
The Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development and Vietnamese Writers Association have worked together in a program to develop rural literature for 2010 to 2020.
A view of northern countryside area (Photo: VnExpress)
Vietnamese writers have produced many famous literary works over the years and have reflected on the beauty of rural life from many regions of Vietnamese culture.
Only writers who have a close attachment with nature could create profound stories such as: Song mon (Desperate life) of Nam Cao, Lang (Village) of Kim Lan, Dat rung Phuong Nam (Southern forest land) of Doan Gioi and Dong song tho au (River of the childhood) of Nguyen Quang Sang.
These stories were written from the authors' experience of the countryside and their rural life.
Several of Vietnamese writers were born in rural areas. However, the modern life has pulled them away from the cradle of creativity in the countryside.
As a result, they have made their livelihood in urban areas with a rustic manner. To approach young readers, their works join the urban movement but each written page carries a provincial sadness.
A generation of 'suburb writers' have moved away from their originality and have tried to work harder and more in touch with civilization.
It is hoped that the program will awake and build up the rural part in the soul of each writer.

School deceives students into enrolling in unaccredited program
In Uncategorized on August 4, 2010 at 11:19 am
Ho Chi Minh City-based American Vietnamese International School (AVIS) deceived nearly 300 students during the 2009-2010 academic year, as it had been training them for a three-year college degree which is unaccredited.

The school, which is operated by American Vietnamese International Joint Stock Company, functions as a personnel training school offering only short-term courses.
However, it was advertised classes on information technology and international economics together with English.
With this advertisement, Le Cong Duc, the company's director, enticed hundreds of applicants from provinces.
For the 2009-2010 school year, the school sent admission notes to applicants and induced nearly 300 candidates to enroll on a three-year degree course in IT and international economics at a tuition of US$4,000.
Some students said at the new school year ceremony in 2009, the school's managers promised that after graduation, students would be granted an international graduate degree by a foreign school associated with AVIS, and that all of them would find jobs related to their majors.
When going to class, students saw abnormal signs. For instance, the school pledged that English classes would be conducted by native English speakers, but in reality ended up being taught by Vietnamese teachers, and students only had the chance to study English with Dennish Requet, the school's deputy head, once a week for a few months.
In addition, the school advertised it had a modern online library, but there was only a shelf with some books and not any computers.
Student suspicions of deception was confirmed when they were invited to a seminar, which was really a meeting to introduce a new management board, on July 23, 2010.
At the meeting, students were informed that Mr. Duc's company was not licensed to offer the three-year degree course and the program which they had studied during the past year was unaccredited.
Convinced to study bachelor's degree course
At the meeting, Nguyen Danh Chau, director of the southern branch of the International Cooperation and Education Center, under the Enterprise Management Institute, which has associated with AVIS in training, said, "In the past, you studied in a professional environment, but unfortunately the program was unaccredited; so we will admit you to our school to study as part of a program affiliated with the University of NorthWest."
He said after graduation, students would be granted a bachelor's from the University of Northwest, which is accredited in 59 countries.
A member of the management board said the university was established in 2001 and has affiliations in Singapore, the United Kingdom, Pakistan and Nigeria.
Ho Nam, AVIS' new principal, said the tuition for the bachelor program would be US$5,960, but that students would be offered a reduced tuition of only US$5,000, which would mean that they would only have to pay an additional US$1,000 in order to earn an accredited bachelor's degree.
The American Embassy in Vietnam has confirmed that there is no University of NorthWest in the US.

Earlier, Vietcombank agreed to fund 600 houses of gratitude and 1,000 scholarships, worth total of VND20 billion ($1 million), to war invalids and martyrs' families and local students, who live along Truong Son Road, which goes through 12 provinces such as Nghe An, Ha Tinh and Quang Binh.
Vietcombank also is funding the construction of two temples to commemorate the martyr Truong Son, at a cost VND20 billion ($1 million).
Vietcombank's branches at twelve provinces along Truong Son Road disbursed money for building houses and grating scholarships since July 15-27.
SGGP and Vietcombank will complete stage one of the program by August 15.
SGGP has also prepared a gala night to launch stage 2 of the program, which is expected get underway in December.

Intel backs RMIT engineering program
Intel Vietnam has committed to providing 20 full scholarships to RMIT International University Vietnam's new Master of Engineering program this year.
RMIT's Master of Engineering (Electronic and Computer Engineering) was established last month to help Vietnam achieve its goal of having enough international standard engineering graduates to meet vital industry and infrastructure development needs in the near future.
The scholarships announced June 22 and sponsored by Intel will provide Vietnamese nationals with the opportunity to obtain RMIT's internationally recognized professional engineering qualifications.
Each scholarship is worth nearly VND1 billion, which will cover total tuition fees, a pre-study English program (if required), all course materials, and a small stipend for living expenses.
In addition, students will be able to obtain the opportunity to do an exchange semester in RMIT University, Australia. Upon graduation in 2013, those students will join the engineer workforce at Intel's largest Assembly and Test factory in Ho Chi Minh City.

The Bac Ha Culture and Tourism Week Open 2010, a special tourism program, has been launched in Bac Ha town in the northern mountain province of Lao Cai.
At the event, more than 60 horses took part in an interesting horse race at the town's stadium.
The race, a traditional event in the mountainous area, drew the participation of thousands of domestic and foreign visitors, as well as local residents.
Earlier, a giant Thang Co pan, weighing 1.5 tonnes and measures 3 meters in diameter and 1 meter deep, was made to serve visitors. 500 kg of horse meat was cooked in the pan, considered to be the biggest Thang Co pan in Vietnam. Thus making it a Guiness record.
Thang Co is a special dish made from horse meat and several other ingredients and is presented at Hmong festivals.
During the event, many other cultural and art performances along with and traditional games were held.

It's time for Pure Digital (and their new overseers at Cisco) to shake up the Flip Video line with something as profoundly revolutionary as the original Flip camera. The UltraHD, while still the best pocket HD camcorder on the market, is not quite perfect yet, and faces stiff competition from digital cameras with high-definition movie modes, like the Panasonic ZS3, cameras that are small, yet have optical zoom lenses and image stabilization, among other useful features.
The ZS3 records HD video using the AVCHD Lite format, a variant of the recording codec found in high-end digital camcorders. It features a 12x image stabilized optical zoom and is capable of capturing 12-megapixel still images. It's part of a growing trend in digital cameras toward hybrid functions, blurring the line between digital cameras and camcorders. Someday, such a line may no longer exist.
If you absolutely must have one of these Flip cameras right now, I'd recommend going with the slimmer MinoHD over the UltraHD. They are essentially the same camcorder, and the incremental updates on the UltraHD aren't so amazing that they warrant overlooking the aesthetic superiority and slimness of the MinoHD. If you can wait, then wait for the next generation of the Flip, which will undoubtedly feature some sort of Internet connectivity and hopefully will utilize some much needed image stabilization. The Flip UltraHD is not the ultimate pocket camcorder, but merely a rest stop on the way to bigger and better gadgets.

Glenn Lewis has been working for close to six decades; he has appeared in some two hundred solo and group exhibitions. Studying ceramics under Bernard Leach, the well-known studio potter whose practice combined Western and Eastern crafts and philosophies, inspired in Lewis an abiding interest in simple forms, in botany and horticulture, in food preparation and the everyday aspects of life. Lewis's work has extended to photography, film and video, ceramics, poetry, collage, sculpture, correspondence, horticulture and performance, and it embraces street parades, craft fairs, paper burnings, cooking demonstrations and a wide range of measurings and mappings.
Swimming performance
In 1970 Glenn Lewis created the mail-art exchange group known as the New York Corres Sponge Dance School of Vancouver—part of a network of artists that included General Idea in Toronto, Ant Farm in San Francisco and the New York Correspondence School under Ray Johnson. The NYCSDSOV camouflaged its meetings as performances at the Vancouver Aquatic Centre, public events witnessed by bemused fellow swimmers, featuring synchronized aquatic routines and shark fin swimming caps designed by Kate Craig (a co-founder of the Western Front).

Chemistry building for struggling volleyball team
by Carla Pennolino
The Queens College women's volleyball team has had a rough start to their season — they're winless after 12 games — but with four starting freshmen, the long-term future may be bright for the Lady Knights.
Freshmen right side Arielle DiCoco, outside hitter Else Buchmiller, libero Xhesi Domi and middle Bianca Steele, although young, have proven themselves worthy of playing up to par with their older teammates and competitors.
"These girls are playing against starters that are, on average, 21 or 22 years old," said head coach Leanna Taylor. "It's part of rebuilding a program."
Losing their first conference game to Molloy College in a heartbreaking five sets, the new-look Lady Knights have shown a lot of potential and team chemistry on and off the court.
"We only had four returning players this season," said senior captain Suzanne Byrne. "It's basically a whole new team."
Domi believes that the amount of starting freshmen is an advantage.
"I think it helps because we are all in the same position going through the same thing," Domi said. "Plus, better chemistry will build through the years."
Buchmiller played down the thought that just because she is younger, does not necessarily mean she is inexperienced.
"Whoever works the hardest will be put on the court," said Buchmiller. "Everyone has a fair shot, no matter how old."

Today modern smartphones come with powerful imaging sensors and dual-camera setups. But even though the cameras on some flagship smartphones can deliver photos that can be comparable to those from DSLR cameras, they still lack in low-light or night photography. But it seems like Florian Kainz; Google's Daydream Engineer has found a solution for it.
As detailed in a Google Research lab blog post, Kainz has developed an experimental app that can be used to click night-time photos that have accurate colours and minimum noise, something that's only possible with DSLR cameras as of now.
He explains that once he shot an image at night using a professional DSLR camera, he challenged his team to take a photo of similar quality using a smartphone camera. This prompted him to develop an app that could capture 64-burst mode shots in 2 seconds.
The app will let users manually control focus, exposure and ISO. It's been added that 64-burst shots are merged algorithmically to clean the image and get desired results.
In the blog post, Kainz further mentions that he shot several images on a full-moon night and in situations with dim-lighting. All the resulting images were blur-free, noiseless and had adequate saturation levels.
"At 9 -10 megapixels the resolution of these pictures is not as high as what a DSLR camera might produce, but otherwise image quality is surprisingly good: the photos are sharp all the way into the corners, there is not much visible noise, the captured dynamic range is sufficient to avoid saturating all but the brightest highlights, and the colors are pleasing," said Kainz.
It's been added that the final images required careful post-processing on a PC.

Q: Make submit in  form I am trying to make an application with a calendar. What I want is that when the user click to a date of the calendar, to have a output form below where the data appears, and a div tag, where i load the result of the php page.  In the php file I ask to upload the result from the database where the date is the same with the one that the user has choose.. But it gives me an error after I click the date:
Notice: Undefined index: dataoutput in C:\xampp\htdocs\rai kalendar\insert.php on line 16

My html file is:

    <form id="dataform" method="post" action="insert.php">
    <output name="dataoutput" id="dataoutput" type="submit">

    </output>

    </form>

and the part of  php file is:
<?php

$result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM Aktiviteti where Data= '$_POST[dataoutput]'");

if(!empty($result))
{

$row = mysql_fetch_row($result);

echo $row[0]; // 42
echo $row[1]; // the email value
echo $row[2]; // the email value

}
else
echo "Empty"
  ?>

and the line 16 is:
  $result = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM Aktiviteti where Data= '$_POST[dataoutput]'");

Why does this happen? Can i make the form submit in output line:
<output name="dataoutput" id="dataoutput" type="submit">

Please help me? What can I do?

A: You need to pass the data to the server, the <output> tag doesn't magically do such a thing.
Correct code would be:
var data = obj.year + "-" + obj.month + "-" +obj.day;
$.post("insert.php", { "dataoutput": data }, function(result) {
    $("#div3_example_result").html(result);
});

Gone but Not Forgotten: How Fiction Helps Us Remember and Understand the Past
Today is Remembrance Day, a day we remember and give tribute to those we lost in the line of duty. It's a solemn day, to say the least. It is a day for reflection, compassion and, in a way, hope. Here in the UK,
The symbol for this day and remembrance is the poppy, as their red petals represent the blood they spilt for us, with the black centre embodying grief those left behind experience. Also, there is a story about how they supposedly grow well in fields drenched in blood, but I am not sure how true that is. I will admit, fields of poppies do look like blood-soaked ones.
I think in a way, parts of my country haven't been able to move on. For instance, my hometown of Glasgow was brutally blasted night after night during WW2. We made most of the ships on the River Clyde, which made us a target. My Grandmother's house was bombed, thankfully she and her family were alright, but that must have been traumatic.
Go anywhere in Scotland, if not the UK as a whole, and you will see that almost every town and city has a memorial made dedicated to those who used to call those places home, before dying on the frontlines. They are everywhere, almost always kept in pristine condition.
War, death and loss are everywhere, even in fiction. A lot of British fiction has some connection to war. From The Lord Of The Rings to The Pillars of the Earth. Many of our greatest writers either served on the frontlines or grew up during wartime misery. For instance, did you know that the creator of Winne the Pooh, A. Milne, served in both World Wars? J.R.R. Tolkien famously survived The Battle of the Somme, a seriously brutal fight.
There is a very toxic idea here, the whole "stiff upper lip" mentality. Basically, yes, you might be suffering and needing help, but keep your mouth shut and power through it. That mindset is still prevalent here. I'm sure you can see how harmful that is. People during and after the war couldn't talk about their trauma. On top of that, mental health wasn't seen as important.
So what did people do and still do today? They turned to stories. People wrote and read to help themselves. Whether as a distraction or to find meaning. Again, considering how some of the best-known works are by veterans, is it that much of a stretch to say that writing helped them? That reading these stories helped others heal?
Not only that but inform and give insight to later generations, who didn't experience it first hand. I'm lucky to not have gone through that first-hand, but when I was little I struggled to understand just how horrific it was for everyone. When I got a bit older and started blossoming into a bookworm, it started to hit home thanks to the books I read. Stories such as Goodnight Mister Tom gave me an insight into what it must have been like for evacuated children. Sent off to safer parts of the country, away from family. Some returned only to find their family wasn't there waiting for them, the family home nothing but bricks. My heart still breaks a bit when I think about that.
Fiction also lets us see the other side of the conflict. Growing up in Scotland, I was only taught about what it was like for the Allied forces, everyone else was handwaved off as "the bad guys". As an adult, I now know that it was nowhere near that black and white. In part, thanks to fiction. Namely, Grave of the Fireflies. If you can sit through that film and not cry, you have a heart of stone.
We must remember what happened. You know that old saying, "Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it". That's why we need days like Remembrance Day, but also fiction that gives us a perspective we wouldn't have otherwise.
To remember and honour the lost, but with new understanding, protect the future generations.
