Q: min max price range validation not working with jquery.validate.js form validation i'm using https://jqueryvalidation.org.
I have implemented custom validation rules through depends property.
following are validation error rules:

*

*if both price box is not selected error won't show.

*if one price box (one out of both) selected ,validation error will show that user needs to select both.

*if both are selected, then max price value must be greater than min price .
please find below my code:
in my code every condition is satisfying but the last rule means max price will be always greater than min price is not working. Its checking true but validation is not triggering.
here is jsfiddle link
$(document).ready(function() {
    $("#form1").validate({
        debug: true,
        onkeyup: false,
        onfocusout: false,
        onclick: false,
        rules: {
            minrange: {
                required: {
                    depends: function() {
                        var min_range = $("#min-range").find(':selected').val(),
                            max_range = $("#max-range").find(':selected').val();
                        if (min_range == "" && max_range == "") {
                            return false;
                        } else if (min_range != "" && max_range == "") {
                            return true;
                        } else if (min_range == "" && max_range != "") {
                            return true;
                        } else if (parseInt(max_range) < parseInt(min_range)) {
                            return true;
                        } else {
                            return false;
                        }
                    }
                }
            },
            maxrange: {
                required: {
                    depends: function() {
                        var min_range = $("#min-range").find(':selected').val(),
                            max_range = $("#max-range").find(':selected').val();
                        if (min_range == "" && max_range == "") {
                            return false;
                        } else if (min_range != "" && max_range == "") {
                            return true;
                        } else if (min_range == "" && max_range != "") {
                            return true;
                        } else if (parseInt(max_range) < parseInt(min_range)) {

                            return false;
                        }
                    }
                }
            },
        },
        submitHandler: function(formName, event) {
            alert("sucess");
        }
    });
});

A: You can do this by using max and min rules. Here is the fiddle.
Code:
$(document).ready(function() {
  var $min_range = $("#min-range"),
      $max_range = $("#max-range");

  $("#form1").validate({
    debug: true,
    onkeyup: false,
    onfocusout: false,
    onclick: false,
    rules: {
      minrange: {
        required: function() {
            return !($min_range.val() === "" && $max_range.val() === "");
        },
        max: function() {
          if ($max_range.val() !== "") {
            return $max_range.val();
          }
        }
      },
      maxrange: {
        required: function() {
            return !($min_range.val() === "" && $max_range.val() === "");
        },
        min: function() {
          if ($min_range.val() !== "") {
            return $min_range.val();
          }
        }
      }
    },
    submitHandler: function(formName, event) {
      alert("sucess");
    }
  });
});

A: For required rule is the method validateRequiredBoth() and for min and max you can configure a rule that requires a parameter, along with a depends callback.
Also modified select fields minrange and maxrange.
Here is the code:

var $min = $('#min-range'),
    $max = $('#max-range');

function getNumber(num) {
    var intNum = parseInt(num);
    return !isNaN(intNum) ? intNum : 0;
}

function getMin() {
    return getNumber($min.find('option:selected').val());
}

function getMax() {
    return getNumber($max.find('option:selected').val());
}

function validateRequiredBoth() {
    return !(getMin() === 0 && getMax() === 0);
}

$('#form1').validate({
    debug: true,
    onkeyup: false,
    onfocusout: false,
    onclick: false,
    rules: {
        minrange: {
            required: function() {
                return validateRequiredBoth();
            },
            max: {
                param: function() {
                    return getMax();
                },
                depends: function() {
                    return getMax() > 0 && getMin() > getMax();
                }
            }
        },
        maxrange: {
            required: function() {
                return validateRequiredBoth();
            },
            min: {
                param: function() {
                    return getMin();
                },
                depends: function() {
                    return getMin() > getMax();
                }
            }
        }
    },
    submitHandler: function(formName, event) {
        alert('sucess');
    }
});

Carolyn Drake (1971) es una fotógrafa estadounidense, afincada en Vallejo, California. Trabaja en proyectos fotográficos a largo plazo que tratan de cuestionar los relatos históricos tradicionales y buscar alternativas a estos. Su obra explora las comunidades y las interacciones dentro de ellas, así como las barreras y conexiones entre las personas, entre los lugares y entre las formas de percibir. Está interesada en romper las divisiones tradicionales entre autor y sujeto, lo real y lo imaginario, y  desafiar los binarios arraigados.

El extenso trabajo de Drake entre la gente de Asia Central y Xinjiang ( China) está recogido en dos libros, Two Rivers y Wild Pigeon. El Museo de Arte Moderno de San Francisco presentó una exposición individual de esta última y adquirió la colección de obras originales del proyecto en 2018.

Drake es miembro de la Agencia Magnum. Ha sido galardonada con varios premios, entre ellos una beca Guggenheim,  el premio Lange-Taylor,  el premio Anamorphosis Photobook, una beca Fulbright, el premio World Press Photo  y el premio HCB. Su trabajo forma parte de la colección de la Biblioteca del Congreso de los Estados Unidos.

Trayectoria
Drake nació en California. Estudió Medios de comunicación, Cultura e Historia a principios de la década de los noventa en la Universidad de Brown.Trabajó en sistemas multimedia en Silicon Alley de Nueva York hasta que empezó su carrera como fotógrafa a la edad de 30 años.

En 2006 se trasladó a Ucrania y desde 2007 hasta 2013 vivió en Estambul.Durante su estancia en Turquía, realizó dos proyectos de larga duración: Two Rivers en los países de Asia Central que formaban parte de la Unión Soviética, y Wild Pigeon, en la parte china de Asia Central.

Financiados en parte por una beca Guggenheim, Drake realizó quince viajes a lo largo de cinco años  en los que recorrió y fotografió la antaño vibrante región de Asia Central situada entre los ríos Amu Darya y Syr Darya que alguna vez la nutrieron.  La región, que abarca Turkmenistán, Uzbekistán, Tayikistán, Kazajstán y Kirguistán, se transformó cuando los ríos fueron desviados por la antigua Unión Soviética para el riego del algodón. El resultado de este trabajo se publicó en el libro autoeditado por Drake, Two Rivers (2013). Se financió a través de Kickstarter  y fue bien acogido por Sean O'Hagan.  Para Jeffrey Ladd, el diseño del libro (de Sybren Kuiper), en particular la forma en que algunas fotografías en las páginas recto y verso tienen sus bordes derechos en el verso, le restó valor.

Pasó siete años visitando Xinjiang en el oeste de China (oficialmente llamada Región Autónoma Uigur de Xinjiang), fotografiando al pueblo uigur para su libro  Wild Pigeon (2014), también autopublicado. Sean O'Hagan escribió sobre Wild Pigeon "Drake es una maestra de la atmósfera". También sobre la discordia entre las autoridades chinas y la población indígena de etnia uigur, se manifestaron Martin ParrColin Pantall,Blake Andrews así como Ian Denis Johnson, quien escribió "este libro hace lo mismo que una gran novela social: nos obliga a pensar en una región en disputa no en términos de artículos de opinión o análisis políticos, sino como la ve la gente en su vida cotidiana".  Para Jeffrey Ladd, el diseño del libro (nuevamente de Sybren Kuiper) evitó los excesos del de Two Rivers, y "Los resultados de los collages (de las personas fotografiadas por Drake) son inesperadamente ricos y crean la sensación de un lugar cotidiano y a la vez fantástico, lo que es acentuado por las propias percepciones de Drake: jóvenes adolescentes bailan bajo un estallido de luz de colores; un aula que parece cobrar un dramatismo surrealista; una pelea de perros, restos óseos colgados en una carnicería".

En 2013, Drake y su pareja, el fotógrafo Andrés González, se trasladaron de Estambul a Estados Unidos para comenzar un nuevo proyecto, en Water Valley, Mississippi,   y, en 2015, a Atenas, Georgia. Finalmente se establecieron enVallejo, California en 2016.

En 2015 se convirtió en miembro nominado de Magnum Photos,   en 2017 en miembro asociado, y en 2019 en miembro de pleno derecho.

Butlers had its origins in John Butler's decision to leave the firm of Freehill Hollingdale & Page, in which he was then a partner, on 30 June 1987.
On 1 July 1987 John opened his own offices at 126 Broadway Nedlands, trading as John Butler & Associates. A year later, Stephen Crooks joined John in partnership, and the firm changed its name to John Butler & Stephen Crooks. This firm opened its first country office in Busselton in April 1992 and subsequently opened a second country office in Mandurah in 1993. In August 1992, the firm of John Butler & Stephen Crooks moved from its offices at 126 Broadway, Nedlands, to new offices in Thelma Street, West Perth. John decided that he wanted to change direction and left the firm of John Butler & Stephen Crooks, on 31 December 1993.
On 1 January 1994, John opened his own new firm at 47-49 Stirling Highway Nedlands, trading as John Butler. Over the next few years John opened a number of country offices, including offices in Albany, Bunbury, Collie and Geraldton.
This firm subsequently changed its name to "Butlers", and later moved to 83-85 Stirling Highway Nedlands on 15 January 1999. The firm closed the last of its full time country offices at the end of September 1999 so that John Butler and our other Lawyers could concentrate their time in our Nedlands offices. On 19 July 2014, the firm moved up the road to better and more improved offices at 45 Stirling Highway, Nedlands. Not only do these offices cater for the growing size of the firm, they are the firm's most technologically advanced offices which will assist to provide exceptional service to clients.
John Butler and other Lawyers with the firm have continued to visit Bunbury, and to provide service to our country clients. John normally visits Bunbury at least once each month.

The Good News: You still have time to find your next Workamping Job!
The Bad News: The prediction has been made for 6 more weeks of Winter!
Spruce up your resume and check the hotline. Send those babies out and when the employer calls, be ready for an interview. I know. I know! The thought of doing all those phone interviews can sometimes be a drag, but here are 10 tips on how to Nail Your Phone Interview Every Time!
1. Keep your resume in clear view - on the top of your desk or tape it to the wall near the phone - so it's at your fingertips when you need to answer questions.
2. Have a pen and paper handy for note taking.
3. Turn call-waiting off so your call isn't interrupted.
4. If the time isn't convenient, ask if you could talk at another time and suggest some alternatives.
5. Clear the room - evict others and the pets. Turn off the stereo and the TV. Close the door.
6. Unless you're sure your cell phone service is going to be perfect, consider using a landline rather than your cell phone to avoid a dropped call or static on the line.
7. Don't smoke, chew gum, eat, or drink. But do keep a glass of water handy, in case you need to wet your mouth.
8. Smile. Smiling will project a positive image to the listener and will change the tone of your voice.
9. Speak slowly and enunciate clearly.
10. Take your time - it's perfectly acceptable to take a moment or two to collect your thoughts.

HP Split Unlocks Cash for Mobile Play
By Matthew Rocco Published October 06, 2014 TechnologyFOXBusiness
Plans to split Hewlett-Packard (NYSE:HPQ) into two companies, with one focused on consumer technology, could reinvigorate the PC maker's push into mobile devices.
H-P said Monday its computing and enterprise units will become separate publicly traded companies by the end of fiscal 2015. The company's computer and printing businesses will be housed under HP Inc. Hewlett-Packard Enterprise will include technology infrastructure, software and services.
The move is expected to provide H-P's enterprise business with additional cash to pursue organic growth and potential acquisitions. For HP Inc., a split from the enterprise side should bode well for product development.
The Palo Alto, Calif.-based company quickly lost ground in the smartphone and tablet markets, thanks in part to a $1.2 billion acquisition of phone maker Palm that fell flat. H-P also struggled to lift PC sales as demand lagged.
However, computers are again a money-making pursuit for H-P. It reported $14.2 billion in total printing and personal systems revenue for the quarter that ended July 31, up 5.1% year-over-year. Total unit sales of desktops and notebooks rose 9% and 18%, respectively. Pre-tax earnings and margins also improved over the prior year.
H-P reveals brand new technology
AlphaOne's Niles: Not convinced H-P split was a good move
EBay, PayPal to split in two
Neil MacDonald, an analyst at technology research firm Gartner, said the split could give H-P's consumer products division a renewed sense of competitiveness. The printing unit's stable cash flow in particular will allow HP Inc. to make new investments in tablets and other products.
"With the cash flow from printing, that division now has the option to enter the mobile handset market," MacDonald, a vice president and Gartner fellow, said. "Likewise, it means that the enterprise business doesn't have to be distracted by the end-user world and focus on things like cloud computing and data centers."
He also noted that HP Labs has proven to be a driving force for innovation inside the company, although it remains unclear what direction the research group will take following the split. MacDonald said HP Labs has a "fantastic reputation."
Once the split occurs, HP Inc.'s "strong profitability and free cash flow will enable investments in growth markets such as 3-D printing and new computing experiences," according to H-P.
H-P said the enterprise-focused company will continue to pursue innovation that enables customers to capitalize on cloud computing, big data, security and mobility.
Like eBay's (NASDAQ:EBAY) move to spin off its PayPal payments service, investors reacted positively to a move that most analysts predict will release hidden shareholder value. Shares jumped 5.5% to $37.13 following the news.
Daniel Niles, a senior portfolio manager at AlphaOne Capital Partners, is less convinced that carving out PCs and printers was a wise decision, given the unit's improvement under Chief Executive Meg Whitman.
"In this case, if you look at the two businesses, it's not like one of these is a fast-growing business and by splitting the company apart, you're really energizing that growth," Niles said on Opening Bell with Maria Bartiromo. "If you look at the PC and printing business, it's been growing faster than the supposed fast-growing enterprise business over the last year."
After Whitman took over as CEO in 2012, she abandoned a plan developed by her predecessor, Leo Apotheker, to spin off H-P's PC unit. Instead, Whitman doubled down on getting the PC business back on track. She combined printing and PCs into their own division and emphasized new products.
Dion Weisler, who was put in charge of the business, will become CEO of HP Inc. when the split is completed. Whitman will serve as chairman, in addition to her role as CEO of Hewlett-Packard Enterprise.
MacDonald believes H-P's split will be a smooth transition, saying it's consistent with a reorganization that has been in place for two years.
"Creating a company under [Weisler] as CEO is really not a significant change. It won't change their products in the short term. In the long term, the cash flow from printers is his," MacDonald said.
In a research note, Citi analyst Jim Suva said the timing of the split makes sense for H-P since its "heavy restructuring" is done. Earnings are no longer on the downswing, cash now exceeds debt and PC margins are very stable, Suva explained.

8 positive moments in politics that remind us 2016 wasn't all bad
By Julia Tilford
The "me at the beginning of 2016" meme has truly allowed us to express the sheer frustration, torture and total exhaustion this year has brought upon us. The deaths of beloved celebrities like David Bowie, Gene Wilder and Prince were also part of a particularly dark year politically — unless you're Donald Trump or into the idea of post-truth. But even the darkest cloud has a silver lining in that there were at least eight positive moments in politics that you can look back on fondly and remind yourself that 2016 wasn't a complete horror show.
8. Dakota Access pipeline halted at Standing Rock

On Dec. 4, the Standing Rock Sioux reservation stood victorious when construction of the Dakota Access pipeline was finally suspended. The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers declined the request for the pipeline's permit, awarding the protesters at Standing Rock an enormous triumph. The Standing Rock Sioux tribe argued that the pipeline's planned trajectory beneath Lake Oahe would contaminate drinking water and disturb sacred burial grounds, which is why protesters gathered at the site to defend the tribe and nearly 500,000 supporters signed a petition on Change.org.
7. Three more states got rid of the tampon tax
The tampon tax was actually removed in three states. Rich Pedroncelli/AP
The issue of the tax on feminine products has existed for years, and some states are finally starting to get with the program. Connecticut Governor Dannel Malloy signed legislation to remove the tax in his state, and similar legislation passed in New York and Illinois. Chicago, in particular, voted in their City Council in March to "remove the city's sales tax on tampons and sanitary napkins to 'correct an unfairness to women.'" So there's one down! (By the way, in case you were wondering, Snopes has a map of all the states that currently do not have a tax on feminine products.)
6. The Paris climate agreement was enforced
"Paris agreement is made" beneath the Eiffel Tower Michel Euler/AP
As reported by Wired, "55 countries with 55% of the world's greenhouse gas emissions ratified the Paris climate change agreement" in October. The agreement came into force on Nov. 4. The main goal of the agreement is to hold the global increase in average temperature below 2 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels. So yay — you probably shouldn't look at this though.
5. Unprecedented rise in donations to Planned Parenthood occurred after the election, many of them in Mike Pence's name
Planned Parenthood supporters Jim Cole/AP
According to Time, organizations like the ACLU and Planned Parenthood saw an "unprecedented" spike in donations after Donald Trump was elected president. Even better, more than 50,000 of these were in vice president-elect Mike Pence's honor, as of Nov. 23. And as of Dec. 8, the number had jumped to over 82,000, according to the Cut. Oh, and some more good news: There's still time to get Pence a gift for the holidays...
4. Sexual assault survivors now have a bill of rights
Uncredited/AP
This hasn't been a banner year for sexual assault victim rights, but we can take solace in the fact that individuals who have survived this horrible crime now have an act protecting essential and important pieces of evidence for their cases. The Survivors' Bill of Rights Act guarantees them access to rape kits and ensures that these kits won't be destroyed, which, up to this point, has been unfortunately all too common.
3. A march for marriage equality in Taiwan brings it closer to becoming the first Asian country to legalize same-sex marriage

According to the New York Times, Taiwan may be the first country in Asia to legalize marriage equality. A march on Dec. 10, also International Human Rights Day, may help move this along, as an estimated 250,000 supporters circled around the Taiwan Presidential Office, as reported by the Gay Times U.K. Some say bills currently in the Taiwanese legislative system could pass as early as next year, but here's hoping we can squeeze in one more win before 2016 ends.
2. Six women win big and create political change
Senator Tammy Duckworth Alex Wong/Getty Images
On election night, six women went on to achieve unprecedented victories across the country. Senator Kamala Harris became the first Indian-American woman ever elected to the Senate and California's first black senator, while Senator Catherine Cortez Masto from Nevada became the nation's first Latina senator. Senator Tammy Duckworth is now the "first female senator to have served in a combat zone," according to the Cut.
In addition, Rep. Stephanie Murphy of Florida is the first Vietnamese-American woman ever elected to Congress, Rep. Pramila Jayapal is the first Indian-American woman elected to the House and Rep. Ilhan Omar is the first Somali-American Muslim woman elected to the state legislature. Progress.
1. Hillary Clinton became the first woman to be nominated for president of the United States by a major political party
Hillary Clinton Mark Wilson/Getty Images
Yes, the results of this year's election have caused us to examine some serious issues that are deep-seated in our country, perfectly summed up in this one Patton Oswalt tweet. And yes, while it would be great to end this list with the pronouncement of the ultimate glass-ceiling shattering, it is still important to recognize how far Hillary Clinton came and that we can — and should — continue to press on and fight for progress no matter what.
Because some good things really have come out of this year, even if it did cause John Oliver and countless others to proclaim it the absolute worst. Therefore, we should stay determined to preserve those changes as well as continue to make new ones in the years to come.


Why Do People Consider Suicide?
The common link among people who consider killing themselves is the belief that suicide is the only solution to a set of overwhelming feelings. The intent of suicide is to finally end the unbearable feelings. The tragedy of suicide is that intense emotional distress often blinds people to alternative solutions.Everyone experiences feelings of loneliness, depression, helplessness, and hopelessness, from time to time. The death of a family member, the breakup of a relationship, blows to our self-esteem, feelings of worthlessness, and/or major financial setbacks are serious problems that all of us may have to face at some point in our lives. Because each person's emotional and biological makeup is unique, each of us responds to situations differently. In considering whether a person may be suicidal, it is imperative that the crisis be evaluated from that person's perspective. What may seem minorly important to someone else may be extremely significant to another. Regardless of the nature of the crisis, if a person feels overwhelmed, there is danger that suicide may seem an attractive solution.
At least 70 percent of all people who die by suicide give some clue as to their intentions before they make an attempt. Becoming aware of these clues and the severity of the person's problems can help prevent such a tragedy. If a person you know is going through a particularly stressful situation-perhaps having difficulty maintaining a meaningful relationship, having consistent failure in meeting preset goals, or even experiencing stress at having failed an important test–watch for other signs of crisis.
In general, statements describing feelings of depression, helplessness, extreme loneliness, and/or hopelessness may suggest suicidal thoughts. It is important to listen to these "cries for help" because they are usually desperate attempts to communicate to others the need to be understood and helped.
Fact: Most people have thought of suicide form time to time. Most suicides and suicide attempts are made by intelligent, temporarily confused individuals who are expecting too much of themselves, especially in the midst of a crisis.
Fact: The opposite is often true. Persons who have made prior suicide attempts may be at greater risk of actually dying by suicide. For some, suicide attempts may seem easier a second or third time.
Fact: Most suicide crises are time-limited and based on unclear thinking. People attempting suicide want to escape from their problems. Instead, they need to confront their problems directly to find other solutions–solutions that can be found with the help of concerned individuals who support them through the crisis period, until they are able to think more clearly.
Fact: The crisis and resulting emotional distress will already have triggered the thought in a vulnerable person. Your openness and concern in asking about suicide will allow the person experiencing pain to talk about the problem which may help reduce his or her anxiety. This may also allow the person with suicidal thoughts to feel less lonely or isolated, and perhaps a bit relieved.
Remain calm. The fact that the person is openly talking with you about their thoughts and feelings is a positive sign they want help.
Deal directly with the topic of suicide. Don't be afraid to ask or talk directly about suicide. There is a difference between self-injury and suicidal thoughts. If the person says they want to hurt themselves, clarify if they mean they want to end their life. When people are considering suicide, thoughts can fall on a continuum of severity. Saying "I wish I could disappear or die." is different than "I want to kill myself." Being clear on what the person's intentions are can help you know how to respond.
Encourage problem solving and positive actions. Remember that the person involved in emotional crisis is not thinking clearly; encourage him or her to refrain from making any serious, irreversible decisions while in a crisis. Talk about the positive alternatives which may establish hope for the future.
Get assistance. Although you want to help, do not take full responsibility by trying to be the sole counsel. Seek out resources which can lend qualified help, even if it means breaking a confidence. Let the troubled person know you are concerned–so concerned that you are willing to arrange help beyond that which you can offer.

Джеймс Богард (; 14 марта 1800,  — 13 апреля 1874, Нью-Йорк) — американский изобретатель и . Прославился тем, что популяризировал чугунные конструкции, которые активно использовались в США в 1850—1880 гг. для возведения индустриальных и коммерческих зданий.

Биография
Карьеру Джеймс Богард начал с того, что стал часовщиком. До того, как заняться чугунными конструкциями, он также сделал несколько изобретений. Например, Богард изобрел карандаш, грифель которого всегда оставался острым и гравировальную машину, на которой отпечатали первые английские марки.

Богард считал, что чугун одновременно отвечает, как инженерным, так и эстетическим требованиям. Свои здания он проектировал так, «что если бы большая часть металлических конструкций была удалена или разрушена, эти здания продолжали бы стоять непоколебимо», как говорил он в своей книге «Архитектор и железо».

По методике Богарда предлагалось поддерживать вес здания не стенами, а колоннами. Этот метод в дальнейшем лег в основу стальных каркасов и строительства небоскребов. Впервые он был применен Богардом в 1848 году при строительстве своей собственной пятиэтажной фабрики в Нью-Йорке. Богард отправлял сборные секции со своей фабрики на стройки.. Самое известное его здание — это «Харпер энд бразерс билдинг» на Франклин-сквер в Нью-Йорке — фасад которого представлял почти сплошь застекленную поверхность.

The Defense Ministry has compiled a design concept of new fighter jets that will replace the Air Self-Defense Forces' F-2 fighter jets, planning for the succeeding jets to be able to carry and launch drones to detect distant enemy planes and also to share radar information with the drones, The Yomiuri Shimbun has learned.
The new planes will be large stealth fighters, exceeding the capability of the cutting-edge F-35A fighter jets introduced by the ASDF. The Defense Ministry will examine how to develop the new jets, such as joint development with the United States, in a bid to deal with China's modernizing air force.
In March, the ministry notified the governments of the United States and Britain of part of the design concept of the F-2 successor, such as its performance requirements. Other than carrying small drones, the ministry considers that the new jets will have the capacity to internally carry eight air-to-air missiles, doubling the load of the F-35A.
Its maximum speed will be Mach 2, almost equal to that of the F-2, and key features will be designed to be similar or superior to the F-35A, such as its radars' detection range, stealth technology and cruising distance. Regarding carrying air-to-ship missiles, the ministry assumes they will be carried externally depending on their missions.
As Japan's neighboring countries have been enhancing their level of stealth technology, which guards against radar detection, the ministry has recognized the need to handle the situation by having the new jets carry drones.

Muslim school is top in Ottawa
Abraar School has been ranked the best performing elementary school in the city.
The private Islamic school in Ottawa's west side was rated the best performing school for reading, writing and math scores by the Fraser Institute, a public policy think-tank. Abraar scored 9.4 points out 10, putting it in the top 50 schools among over 2,700 schools in Ontario. The provincial average was 6.0.
Abraar continues to shine provincially
The Abraar School is celebrating another year of stellar performances on province-wide academic tests.
For the sixth year running, third and sixth grade students at Abraar School scored well above provincial averages on the standardized EQAO Test that measures performance in reading, writing and mathematics.
In the 2011-2012 school year report, Abraar Grade 3 students scored 22 percentage points higher than the provincial average in reading, 24 per cent higher in writing and 28 per cent higher in mathematics; with a perfect 100 per cent in writing.
Summer camp season almost here and MAC is ready

Bradbury, John, naturalist (fl. 1809-1819). Born in Scotland, he lived long in England where he became skilled in botany and other natural history specialties and arrived in the United States in the summer of 1809. He was guest of Jefferson at the White House and made St. Louis the center for his explorations into the northern Plains by way of the Missouri River. In 1812 he went with the Astorians from St. Louis up the Missouri to the Arikara villages. From there he accompanied Ramsay Crooks to the Mandans. Rather than accompany the Astorians on to the Pacific coast he instead returned to St. Louis on a Manuel Lisa boat. After a four month bout with fever he went to New Orleans, enroute enduring the great shocks of the New Madrid earthquake, describing it vividly. Bradbury returned to England where because of the War of 1812 he was forced to remain for several years, then came back to the United States, making a tour of the upper Middle West. He returned to England but was back in the United States, settled at St. Louis by 1819. His book which went into a second edition that year, Travels in the Interior of America. . . , is reprinted by Thwaites.

Home Understanding Drug Development Understanding mRNA Therapy
mRNA Therapy for Rare Diseases
Researchers are studying how to harness messenger RNA (mRNA)—a powerful tool the body uses to create proteins— as a way to treat rare diseases. To learn more about how mRNA therapy may work, check out the video below!
Scientists are researching many kinds of therapy to potentially treat rare and ultra-rare diseases. This includes mRNA therapy.
What is mRNA?
mRNA is a molecule found in the cells of everyone's body.1 It stands for messenger ribonucleic acid. It is a type of RNA, a nucleic acid found in cells.1 DNA is the other type of nucleic acid in cells.1-3
What does mRNA Do?
Since DNA can't leave the nucleus, it makes a single strand copy of its code called RNA, which carries the code outside the nucleus.4,5 Messenger RNA activates the instructions it gets from DNA. That information includes instructions for making proteins, which are very important for the body to work properly. mRNA carries the instructions to the cytoplasm, which is where the proteins are made.1,6 The cytoplasm contains tiny particles called ribosomes, which act as protein builders or "copy machines."7
What is an mRNA Therapy?
Since mRNA tells the body how to make proteins, an mRNA therapy is designed to address the root cause of a disease by replacing a protein that is missing or doesn't function properly. With the goal of creating a therapeutic effect, mRNA is packaged in a delivery system known as a lipid nanoparticle, or LNP, and is typically given by an intravenous (IV).
How is an mRNA Therapy Designed to Work?
After the mRNA-LNP is in the body, it is designed to carry the right instructions to the target cells and tissues. Once inside the cells, the lipid nanoparticle breaks down and releases the mRNA. Then, the idea is that through a process called translation, the cell machinery could create the working protein using the instructions provided by the mRNA.
Like many kinds of medicine, mRNA therapy is given in repeat doses. A benefit of this is that the mRNA dose can be changed based on a person's response, which allows for more personalized treatment.
Why use mRNA Therapy?
Scientists discovered that mRNA is a potentially viable option for rare diseases in which the missing or poorly functioning protein is too large to be delivered via the most common gene therapy vector. Glycogen storage disease III, or GSDIII, is an example of such a disease. mRNA may also be an option for those people who have antibodies to common gene therapy vectors.

Paleo-orthodoxy
Review: A Change of Heart
January 21, 2016 January 21, 2016 / rtrube54	/ 6 Comments
A Change of Heart, Thomas C. Oden. Downers Grove: InterVarsity Press, 2014.
Summary: Thomas Oden narrates his personal and theological journey through social leftist thought, neo-orthodox and process theology, and trends of ecumenism, feminism, and small group psychotherapy until a personal conversation led to repentance and an embrace of classical, patristic Christianity (paleo-orthodoxy) and landmark works in patristic scholarship and the North African origins of Christianity.
Thomas Oden no doubt would go down as one of the most significant theological scholars of the late twentieth century. Authoring numerous books on pastoral and systematic theology, late in life he led a monumental publishing project, the Ancient Christian Commentary Series and a three-volume series on the influence of early North African theologians on European Christianity. In this volume, he narrates the course of his life, which hinged on a pivotal conversation and the changes of heart and scholarship that resulted.
The first part of the book (roughly the first 130 pages) reflects the course of his life up through the 1960s. From his birth and boyhood in rural Oklahoma, we see the rich fabric of family life and faith, challenged for the first time with the ordeals of Depression and World War 2, with older friends who did not return. We see Oden's turn in college to pacifism and the leftist ideologies favored by mainline youth ministries. He speaks at several points of the common journeys as Methodist youth he and Hillary Rodham Clinton traveled and the common influences of people like Saul Alinsky and Joe Matthews. He eventually pursues doctoral work at Yale and later travels to Europe, intersecting with Karl Barth, Rudolf Bultmann, Gunther Bornkamm, and Wolfhart Pannenberg. This section of the book reveals an Oden imbibing successive "movement" theologians and immersing himself deeply in World Council of Churches ecumenism. All of this led to his appointment at Drew, and to a life-changing friendship with Jewish scholar Will Herberg. He describes a meeting with Herberg to receive Herberg's critique of his latest book, Beyond Revolution:
"Holding one finger up, looking straight at me with fury in his eyes, he said, 'You will remain theologically uneducated until you study carefully Athanasius, Augustine and Aquinas.'. . .
"Herberg reminded me that I would stand under divine judgment on the last day. He said, 'If you are ever going to become a credible theologian instead of a know-it-all pundit, you had best restart your life on firmer ground. You are not a theologian except in name only, even if you are paid to be one.' " (pp. 136-137).
This led to the "change of heart" referred to in the title, beginning with repentance from the obsession with originality to a dreamed epitaph saying "He made no new contribution to theology." He moved from the contentious theologies of his peers to the consensual approach to theology of the early fathers. In the circle of New York intellectuals gathered around Richard John Neuhaus bringing together thoughtful evangelicals, Catholics (including then Cardinal Ratzinger) and Orthodox, Oden discovered a different ecumenism energized not by the latest radical theology but rather the classical Christianity articulated in creeds and councils.
This turn to the church fathers and away from the latest progressive causes led to painful breaks with some of his Drew colleagues, but also to the landmark publication project of The Ancient Christian Commentary Series, a commentary series based on the idea of a catena of citations of the church fathers on the biblical text. In the midst of this project, he describes his loss of Edrita, his college sweetheart with whom he was married for 46 years. We see the deep grief of one parted from his beloved only by death, the comfort of the birth of a granddaughter two weeks later and the healing that came in praying the hours, believing that somehow he was communing with both the Lord and Edrita.
The book concludes with the development of a finding implicit in his study of the fathers–the critical role African theologians played in the first five centuries of Christianity, a heritage that has implications for the West, profoundly for Africans and for Christian engagement with the Islam that supplanted it in North Africa. In addition to his writing, Oden founded the Center for Early African Christianity.
I found this to be a powerful narrative of Oden's life but also the follies of many of the successive theologies of the twentieth century, theologies that distanced Oden from the centrality of the crucified and risen Lord for an empty and unsatisfying activism. His turning makes me examine how deeply I am listening to Christians across the centuries, and not just the "latest thing." I found myself warned of the danger of being the "know-it-all pundit". And it left me with a profound sense of thankfulness for Oden's Jewish friend who risked affection to tell the truth. What a gift this resulted in not only for Oden but for the church.
A colleague, Mark Hansard, also reviewed this book recently. For another take on it, I'd invite you to check out his review.

Q: How to make read buffer from standard input when run with --remote-tab-silent option? The following command successfully launches vim that reads the edit buffer from standard input.
echo hi | vim -

But this one does not work.
echo hi | vim --remote-tab-silent -

When the above command is run, the following warning occurs and vim quits.
Vim: Warning: Input is not from a terminal
Vim: Error reading input, exiting...
Vim: preserving files...
Vim: Finished.

Why does it not read from standard input in the second case?
The help message of vim seems to indicate that it should have worked?
$ vim -h | head
VIM - Vi IMproved 7.4 (2013 Aug 10, compiled Mar 31 2015 23:36:07)

                          There is one optional init command: +{cmd}.
                          This must be an Ex command that can be

                          The rest of the command line is taken as the
                          file list.  Thus any non-file arguments must
                          come before this.
                          You cannot edit stdin this way |--|.
                          The remote Vim is raised.  If you don't want

At least 20 people feared dead in head-on collision outside Brussels.
An unnamed passenger described the collision as "brutal", saying one of the trains did not brake.
"Wagons have been turned over, lots of people are in shock," the passenger told the RTL TV news website.
Hambaoui Mounir, a 37-year-old passenger, told the Reuters news agency that the "first two carriages were completely squashed".
"I was in the carriage right behind. The train fell to one side, people fell over each other, there was no air and women and children were screaming."
"Clearly something went very very wrong here. The heads of the trains are crushed into each other like tinfoil"
Dirk Pieters, mayor of Halle, told Flemish public television VRT that there were "at least 20 dead".
"All the emergency services are there. The most seriously injured are being treated at the scene before being taken to hospital," the mayor added.
Pieters said the seriously hurt were taken to hospitals and the lightly injured were moved to a sports complex.
But Lodewijk De Witte, the governor of the province where the crash occured, said one train "apparently did not heed a stop light".
Terri Schultz, a local journalist, told Al Jazeera that locals were shocked by the incident.
"Clearly something went very very wrong here. The heads of the trains are crushed into each other like tinfoil."
She said Belgium's train safety record was very good.
"Things are very orderly in Belgium. I've lived here three years and I've never heard of anything like this.
"I think everyone is shocked. And this wasn't just rush hour it was the busiest commuter line going into Brussels."
Railway authorities said the accident also caused great damage to overhead power lines in the station.
Train services, including the high-speed line between Brussels and Paris, have been suspended for the day. Eurostar said its services to Britain were also not running.
eight people died when a crowded train ploughing into an empty train driving on the wrong tracks.


When Apple unveiled the Siri technology for in-car hands-free, several automakers signed a pact to install the new system their cars. However, the American giant Ford decided to sideline, as it already has a pact with Microsoft to develop the in-car mobile technology. With the launch of its first all-electric car, Ford introduced the MyFord Mobile app for cars.
Though the world is taking a shift towards greener and cleaner cars, charging stations are still tricky to locate. The MyFord Mobile app guides the driver, navigating him via map to the closest charging station. In addition, the mobile device will show the charging left in the car even while the driver is away from it, thanks to the built-in AT&T module.
"The Focus Electric is a fun car to drive and helps save customers money at the pump; with MyFord Mobile, the enjoyment and savings continue after the vehicle is parked and charging," said Bill Frykman, Business and Product Development manager.
Frykman iterated that the MyFord Mobile app helps the drivers communicate smartly through the mobile device on platforms such as Facebook, Twitter and Google+. They can update driving tips, weather conditions and traffic alerts on the go.
Ford has introduced its first all-out electric car – Focus Electric. It can be charged at home using Microsoft's cloud computing technology. The MyFord Mobile app cleverly reduces the electricity consumption by charging only when there is less load on the electric grid.


Insurance tech startup Lemonade backed by reinsurers Lloyd's of London, Berkshire Hathaway's National Indemnity, Hiscox and more | City A.M.
A soon-to-launch tech startup with millions in venture capital investment and plans to disrupt the insurance industry has been backed by leading insurers Lloyd's of London and Berkshire Hathaway's National Indemnity.
"For insurance to provide true peace of mind you want to know your insurer is both willing and able to pay your claims," said chief executive and co-founder Daniel Schreiber.
The backing paves the way for a consumer launch of the stealth startup which has so far left the exact details of how its business will work under wraps. It has applied to become a licensed insurer in New York, where it is based. meaning it can underwrite and offer policies of its own, according to CB Insights.
In October it landed $13m (£8.7m) from Sequoia, one of the VC firm's largest ever seed rounds. "... it is rarer still to find such accomplished founders tackling such a sizable industry with such a compelling solution. We're betting Lemonade will transform the insurance landscape beyond recognition. It is one to watch," said Sequoia partner Haim Sadger at the time.
Lemonade hired executives from ACE and AIG at the start of the year and plans to launch in the coming months, initially in New York.
Where are the insurance tech startups?

Italy's new finance minister pledges to keep euro
Simone Rensch
Italy's finance minister has ruled out leaving the eurozone following months of uncertainty about the country's future within the common currency.
Giovanni Tria said there "isn't any discussion on a plan to leave the euro" and that he would focus on structural reforms over deficit spending.
He added that Italy's new government would seek to block any market conditions that would "push toward an exit".
Tria told the Corriere della Sera newspaper that the government would focus on "growth and employment" in the structural reform programme and would also "make progress on many aspects of the European governance programme and banking union".
Members of the government, which was sworn in at the beginning of this month after elections on 4 March, have given conflicting views about staying within the common currency.
The anti-establishment Five Star Movement, which forms half of the coalition, has dwelled on the issue of ditching the single currency for years, but during the election campaign came down on the side of remaining in the eurozone.
The other half of the governing coalition, the right-wing League, has been less consistent, and recently a senior party figure said the party hoped the euro would collapse from within, allowing Italy to exit.
Tria, an academic, was appointed finance minister after the Eurosceptic economist Paolo Savona had initially been proposed for the job.
But Italian president Sergio Mattarella vetoed Savona's appointment because of his open criticism of the euro.

NGC 1316 (poznat i kao Fornax A) je galaksija u zviježđu Kemijska peć. To je lećasta galaksija udaljena oko 60 milijuna svjetlosnih godina. To je i radio galaksija s frekvencijom 1400 MHz i četvrti je najsjajniji radio izvor na nebu.

Svojstva

NGC 1316 je lećasta galaksija. Veličina galaksije na nebu je 12.0'x8.5' što uz procijenjenu udaljenost daje veličinu od 215,000 svjetlosnih godina. NGC 1316 je najveća galaksija u klasteru Peći.

U kasnim 1970-ima François Schweizer intenzivno je proučavao NGC 1316 i ustanovio da je galaksija izgledala kao mala eliptična galaksija s neobičnim prašinskim pragovima ugrađenim u mnogo veću omotač zvijezda. Vanjska omotnica sadržavala je mnoštvo pukotina, petlji i lukova. Također je utvrdio prisutnost kompaktnog diska s plinom u blizini središta koji se činio nagnutim u odnosu na zvijezde i koji se čini da se okreće brže od zvijezda.

Na temelju tih rezultata, Schweizer je smatrao da je NGC 1316 nastao spajanjem nekoliko manjih galaksija. Takvi događaji spajanja možda su potaknuli središnju supermasivu crnu rupu , koja ima masu procijenjenu u plinima od 130 do 150 milijuna solarnih masa, uzrokujući da galaksija postane radio galaksija . Također navodi da je NGC 1316 usporediv s ogromnim eliptičnim galaksijama koje se nalaze u središtima drugih skupina galaksija. Korištenjem spektroskopije njegovih najsjajnijih globularnih klastera , procjenjuje se da je spajanje došlo prije oko 3 milijarde godina.

Predloženo je i da NGC 1316 može biti galaksija koja evoluira i koja će s vremenom postati galaksija slična onoj Messieru 104 na kojem dominira velika izbočina.

Okolina
NGC 1316 središnja je galaksija jedne od dvije subgrupe u klasteru Peći. Ta se grupa približava glavnoj te će se spojiti. NGC 1316 je u interakciji s NGC 1317.

THE DAILY TELEGRAPH: The euro faces 'disintegration' unless European governments do much more to work together, the European Commission has warned.
Olli Rehn, the economics commissioner, gave the warning as Mario Draghi, the head of the European Central Bank, criticised national leaders for a "lack of action" to help the single currency out of its crisis.
Spain remained at the eye of the financial storm yesterday, amid continuing fears for its banking sector.
Investors in Spanish banks are withdrawing money at a record rate, figures showed yesterday. More than £55 billion was withdrawn and moved out of the country last month.
Yesterday's figures are for the month before the Spanish banking crisis entered its latest phase with the nationalisation of Bankia, one of the country's biggest banks.
Even more money is thought to have left the country since then, raising fears that Spain is locked in an unbreakable cycle of market panic.
The flow of money out of Spain has raised fears that its banking system could collapse, requiring a bail-out that its government cannot afford.
