Unanswered: list within a list in itemtpl
Hi all,
I have a list of employees. Each employee can be associated with more than 1 departments.
I am able to show the list of employees using itemTpl. How do I show the department list?
I tried adding tpl for loop:
<tpl for="departments">{departments.deptName}</tpl> However that doesn't work.
My list is a list of
{ xtype: 'list', id: 'myList', itemId:"myListId", itemTpl: "

" + "
Employee Name 	{empName}	Designation 	{designation}
" + "
<tpl for="departments">{departments.deptName}</tpl>
" + "

", flex: 1, store:{ id: 'myStore', model:'myModel', data: '' }, width: '100%' }

Homosexuality and Cancer Risk
Last Modified: March 22, 2012
Does being a gay man put me at a higher risk for cancer? I have heard that may be true, but I am unsure of what the reasoning is. Can you explain?
Carolyn Vachani, RN, MSN, AOCN, OncoLink Nurse Educator, responds:
What sexual practices increase risk? Higher numbers of sexual partners and earlier age of first sexual encounter, both of which may increase your exposure to HPV and your chances of being infected. Studies have found that anal sex can increase the risk of anal cancers and oral sex (performed by or on either sex) can increase the risk of oral cancers. However, HPV can be spread to these areas without engaging in these practices. So, what can you do to decrease risk? Educate yourself about the virus, understand that all sexual activity can transmit the virus (not just intercourse), and learn more about prevention through vaccines and screening tests.
Men who have sex with men are at increased risk of anal cancers, which are in large part caused by HPV. The risk is higher for those with multiple partners and sex without condoms though any anal sex can increase risk. HOWEVER, it is not necessary to have anal sex for the anal tissue to be infected with HPV.
In some high prevalence areas, clinics perform pap tests (same tests used on women's cervix) to test the anal cells. UCSF has some great info about the risk and the use of anal pap testing: http://id.medicine.ucsf.edu/analcancerinfo/

John Rylands Library – A gothic sandstone building on Deansgate recently juxtaposed with a clever modern visitor centre. This fabulous legacy of Cottonopolis was commissioned by Cuban-born Enriqueta Rylands in memory of her philanthropist textile manufacturer husband. There's more about Manchester's first multi-millionaire and some fascinating changing exhibitions in the cathedral-like public reading rooms.
Royal Northern College of Music – The only UK conservatoire to be a centre for excellence in teaching and learning, but you can still hear the talented students play for free! Orchestral performances take place in the late-60s concert hall, while the RNCM's best-kept secret is their Wednesday-lunchtime recitals by soloists and smaller ensembles in the calming and charming setting of St Ann's Church.
Heaton Park – Manchester's biggest green space, with lovely views both back over town and out to the Pennines. There's plenty to do whatever your age: a well-equipped children's playground; rowing boats, woodland walks and cycle paths; even a grand 18th-century mansion and farm. It's also home to beekeepers, astronomers, trolley-bus enthusiasts and the Commonwealth Bowling Club.
City Airport – Formerly known as Barton Aerodrome, this was the UK's first purpose-built municipal airport and it's still in action today. Sit in the beer garden and watch small planes bump excitedly along the grassy runway as they take off and land, and climb up the Art Deco control tower that dates from 1933.
Whitworth Art Gallery – There's always something worth seeing at this gallery, part of Manchester University; not least the soon-to-be developed building and its parkside location. Recent highlights have been the Subversive Spaces surrealism show, the American Scene prints exhibition and Walls Are Talking, and the varied event programme includes related talks held in the "secret" lecture theatre.

WHEELING - Lawtoncircle, the post-time favorite at odds of 8-5, won the first race on Friday's night's card that commenced the 63rd season of racing at Mountaineer Casino Racetrack and Resort.
The eight-year-old gelding, trained by Brent Angelle and ridden by Luis Quinones, closed strongly in the stretch to prevail by two lengths. Lawtoncircle's final time for the five-furlong event for $5,000 claimers was 1:01.91 on a track rated "good."
Lawtoncircle is a Louisiana-bred his effort on Friday was his 51st career start, and the first he has ever made outside of his home state. It was also his first victory since October 1, 2011, at Delta Downs.

THE?WINNER — Lawtoncircle, ridden by Luis M. Quinones, drove to a two-length victory in the opener at Mountaineer Racetrack on Friday, commencing the 63rd season at the Hancock County oval.
Angelle doesn't race horses with great frequency at Mountaineer, but when he does he gets impressive results: from 80 career starts here, he has gained 25 wins along with 25 placings, for a strike ratio of 37.5% and a win-place-show ratio of 62.5%. For Quinones, it was his 536th career victory.
Vaulted Son, a three-year-old colt making his third career start, graduated from the maiden ranks impressively in the sixth race, drawing leading wire-to-wire and increasing his margins at every call to win by 13 lengths.
It was career win number 4,961 for jockey Terry D. Houghton. It was also the 594th career triumph for trainer Bart Baird, who is a son of the late Dale Baird the latter's all-time win total of 9,445 remains the world record for a Thoroughbred conditioner.
Bart Baird has been a licensed trainer since 1995. Vaulted Son was purchased for $1,700 as a weanling his $11,640 share of the purse on Friday brought his career earnings to $16,920. As the even-money favorite, Vaulted Son returned mutuels of $4.00, $3.00 and $2.20.
Called to Serve, who finished a fast-closing third in last year's Grade 2 West Virginia Derby, is 6-1 in the morning line for Saturday's Grade 1 Santa Anita Handicap at Santa Anita Park.
The "Big Cap" is one of the most prominent stakes for older horses in North America. Following his West Virginia Derby effort, Called to Serve finished second by a nose in the Temperence Hill Stakes at Belmont Park; was a 4 -length winner of the Grade 3 Discovery Handicap at Aqueduct; and was a 5 -length winner of the Broad Brush Stakes at Laurel Park.
All three races were run at nine furlongs, and Called to Serve displayed a strong closing kick each time. The extra furlong in the 1 -mile Santa Anita Handicap should suit him. Called to Serve will be ridden by Hall of Famer Gary Stevens, who recently came out of retirement.
Post time for the Santa Anita Handicap is scheduled for 7:30 p.m., and the race will be simulcast at Mountaineer.

No. 12 Michigan In The Current Recovery: A Historical Prespective
Michigan's heritage is one of economic strength. In the past decade, however, Michigan has fallen to a position of relative weakness. This fall has been symbolized by the exodus of many Michigan firms, the decline of the domestic automobile industry as a major employer, and the selection of other states for the location of new automobile manufacturing plants.
Since 1983, Michigan has benefited greatly from the national economic recovery. Indeed, some claim that Michigan's performance in the recovery has earned it the title "The Comeback State," as its unemployment rate dropped and its state government finances improved.

Aches and Pains in Pregnancy
In This Article:
Tailbone, leg, and wrist symptoms
This is pain in one or both buttocks that may radiate down one leg. There may also be tingling or numbness in the legs, although this occurs only in a small percentage of women. Sciatica is most likely to occur after the second trimester.
Sciatica is caused by trapping or compression of the sciatic nerve as it runs through the spinal column. The pain is termed referred pain, that is, pain felt in an area away from the problem site. Sciatica is not caused by compression of the nerve by the fetus's head. The causes of sciatica in pregnancy are the same as in women who are not pregnant and include poor posture, wear and tear on vertebral joints, and poor lifting techniques.
What to do
Specific exercises can help to stretch muscles gently and release pressure on the sciatic nerve. Your doctor may be able to advise you on exercises or may refer you to a physical therapist for help.
Coccygeal pain
The coccyx, or tailbone, is the small bone found at the base of the spine. This bone is usually fairly immobile; however in pregnancy it becomes more mobile, which facilitates the passage of the baby through the birth canal during labor. Pain in this area can make sitting for long periods extremely uncomfortable, particularly at work or during travel. Coccygeal pain can occur throughout pregnancy.
Coccygeal pain may predate pregnancy due to a previous injury to the area; the discomfort may then be exacerbated by the hormonal and mechanical changes of pregnancy. Alternatively, coccygeal pain may arise in pregnancy, since increased movement in the coccyx during this time makes injury more likely. Sometimes the coccyx is injured during labor by the baby's head, and coccygeal pain therefore develops after the birth.
What to do
Moving around frequently and gently massaging the area can help relieve discomfort. Ask your doctor which analgesics are safe for you to take. The condition usually gets better within 6 weeks of delivery.
Leg cramps
Cramps in the legs, particularly in the calf muscles, are a common problem during pregnancy. These occur most commonly at night, but may sometimes come on when walking, and their frequency can increase as your pregnancy advances.
There is debate as to the cause of leg cramps in pregnancy. They are likely to be caused by a combination of factors including maternal posture, increasing body weight, restriction in the blood flow to the legs, and the pressure of the uterus on the pelvic nerves. Some suggest that leg cramps in pregnancy may be due to a lack of salt in the diet. However, research demonstrates that low levels of salt are healthy in pregnancy, and that it is very unlikely that anyone who is eating a balanced diet will suffer from salt depletion.
What to do
Leg cramps may be relieved by changing position, flexing the toes of the affected leg upward, and massaging the cramped muscle. To avoid leg cramps, massage your legs before bed and avoid sitting or standing in one position for long periods. A warm bath before bed may also help. Stay well hydrated and alternate regular periods of moderate exercise with periods of rest.
If you have persistent pain, redness, or swelling in your calf, this may be a sign of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) (see Ask A Doctor), which requires prompt medical attention.
Restless leg syndrome
Restless leg syndrome is an uncomfortable feeling or unpleasant tingling that creates an overwhelming desire to move your legs, or causes legs to jerk uncontrollably, especially during sleep. Sufferers describe the sensation as being like an electric current passing through the legs or like having itchy bones. During pregnancy, the problem is most likely to occur during the third trimester.
Restless legs syndrome is frequently triggered or aggravated by pregnancy. The cause is unknown, but some studies indicate that it might be related to low iron levels. Many sufferers have a family history of the condition.
What to do
If you're suffering from restless leg syndrome, talk to your doctor about having a blood test to check your iron levels. If levels are low, a simple iron supplement may be prescribed. Some women find it helpful to exercise or stretch their legs, to use hot or cold compresses, or to have a leg massage. If the condition occurs for the first time in pregnancy, there is a very good chance that it will disappear after the baby is born.
Carpal tunnel syndrome
The carpal tunnel is a small tunnel in the wrist through which nerves run from your forearm into your hands and fingers. Carpal tunnel syndrome occurs when the nerves are compressed, resulting in tingling and pain in the fingers, which is often worse at night. In severe cases, there may be considerable discomfort and a reduced grip. In pregnancy, this is most likely to occur in the second and third trimesters.
Carpal tunnel syndrome is caused by pressure on nerves running through the tunnel due to swelling of surrounding tissues. During pregnancy, swelling in the hands and feet is common as a result of the extra fluid and blood volume.
What to do
If you think you may have carpal tunnel syndrome, talk to your doctor. You may be referred to a physical therapist for treatment, who will recommend specific exercises to help relieve the discomfort. You may also be advised to wear a lightweight splint to support your wrists, which can be especially beneficial if the pain is disturbing your sleep. Carpal tunnel syndrome usually disappears after the birth. However, if it persists, a simple surgery can be performed to relieve the pressure on the nerves.

5 Works of Legitimate Mad Science Passed Off as Art
Nobody loves bullshit more than the art world, and nobody tolerates bullshit less than the world of science, so when the two do meet it should be a knock down brawl to the death. That's just not always the case: Sometimes they get along quite well. Sometimes they even improve one another. Sometimes when they get together, they make sweet, sweet love. And sometimes their children are shithouse-rat crazy.
Listen: We give artists a lot of shit here (mostly because we miss all of the girlfriends we have lost to them) but honestly? You can't discount the importance of the artist; they are the single greatest resource we have for shining a light back on the problems of society. They are as important to the advancement of human culture as any technology and, though we joke about it now, a life spent making art is truly a life well spent. Our creative visionaries should be honored and valued above all else.
And then there are performance artists.
Performance artists are what you call mimes who can't shut up and lack the spatial awareness to form invisible boxes. If your average Joe can look down on the unemployed artist with scorn, then the unemployed artist can look down at the performance artist and spit on them...which they'd probably just claim is part of their "show."
Now, meet their king:
Jaime del Val has jery-rigged a system of portable powered projectors and attached them to his dick. He wanders the streets of Madrid looking like everything that is wrong with the male body, projecting gargantuan images of his cock onto the sides of government buildings and cathedrals.
He claims he is advancing the cause of a new sexual identity: Pangender Cyborgs. We're not entirely sure what that means, but we think it's artspeak for "bisexual nerds."
He explains that his "visual actions are part of a multi-protest against homophobia, surveillance, control and consumer society." Ah! See, it's not just technosexual assault: He's protesting. It's just that he's choosing to forego the cliched "chain myself to a fence/tree/building" method of protest in favor of the oft-overlooked "look at my giant video dick" statement. It really gets the point across. The gross, pale, shriveled and entirely inadequate point.
But hey, this is the tragedy of misunderstood genius; in no way is he just a pervert who used to be in the A/V Club and now wants to fuck a church.
#4. Mechanical Tumor
Mio I-zawa is Japanese, so you're about to learn of some schoolgirl robots or train-rape, right?
I-Zawa is a "media artist," which is different than a "performance artist," so he's generally an all-right guy--he doesn't even cover your house with his balls or anything. The work that's earned him a spot on this list is his "mechanical tumor" which is surprisingly self-explanatory for art: It is a "quivering, fleshy, organic looking" tumor that ties into your PC and monitors the CPU stress your computer is undergoing.
Under higher strain, the tumor begins to inflate to gigantic levels--throbbing, and rolling about and generally just being disgusting. But even when your computer is idle, the tumor still "pulsates gently" - which is considerably more than most normal people are comfortable with cancerous growths doing on their desk 24/7.
I-Zawa's throbbing CPU tumor is just the latest in a series of hits, such as his Giant Elastic Cell Carpet: A mat of throbbing cells that mimic a vastly magnified patch of human skin. Or his External Heart, which is a graphic, gory representation of a human heart on wheels, which races around the room, throbbing in time with your heartbeat. It's meant to help you monitor your pulse-rate.
Anybody get the feeling that I-Zawa would like you to know that something is "throbbing?" It all makes sense, actually: Rather than sexually harassing passerby (the American way to express sexual frustration) or simply engaging in some awkward stuttering double-entendre (the English way) he's merely taking the Japanese way: Building robotic organs that assault you in every room of the house until you give up and just give him a handjob already.
Either that or I-zawa genuinely believes that every time you run Crysis you would love to be assaulted by cancer.
#3. Rock Exoskeleton
Japanese "nonsense" artist (there's some other kind now?) Nobumichi Tosa has an interesting concept for the future of musical performance: Interactive, motion-controlled electronic suits programmed to produce any range of sounds. It's basically just a synthesizer that you wear, which we're pretty sure was the entire endgame of the 80s, so what's surprising here? Well, just look at it:
Imagine Queen's "Flash Gordon" theme playing over this.
That's right: As you probably should've guessed when you first read the word "Japanese," there's a robot shoehorned into this deal. Well, sort of: It's more like a Battlemech actually--less Rock 'n Roll Terminator than Guitar-shredding Voltron (both screenplays are already written and waiting, Hollywood).
The suit is controlled by a number of factors: The speed and direction of the user's movement, the position of his body and the appearance of certain key gestures. There are no real pre-sets dictating which motion triggers which sound; it's entirely programmable. Jump up and down--maybe that triggers a snare drum. Run in circles--that's a piano riff. Uppercut a dude for a thumping bass line, or just flip someone the double-bird while air-thrusting your hips at their girlfriend to trigger a bitchin' guitar solo.
Whatever music you like is suddenly made physical, and it's easy to see the mass appeal of that. Unfortunately, however, this particular device is a prototype in use exclusively by Nobumichi's design troop, Maywa Denki. But the idea in general does seem to be building up steam...
...then firing it from its arm-mounted heat-cannons into the face of a giant lizard.

A story with the headline "US ends funding for Pakistan's 'Sesame Street'" caught my eye this morning. To paraphrase the Associated Press article, the U.S. has decided to cut off funding for the $20 million project while it investigates corruption claims against the local puppet theater working to develop the show. We've spent $6.7 million so far. This is part of America's multibillion-dollar aid program in Pakistan.
According to the Associated Press, the U.S. funded this project in hopes to improve education in a country where one-third of primary school-age children are not in class.
I bring this topic up not to discuss whether Pakistan should or shouldn't get their Sesame Street, but to get what I'm sure will be a variety of responses about the fact that we agreed to spend $20 million on the television show when the nation's debt crisis has been an even larger issue the past couple of years.
On one hand, I absolutely appreciate and agree with the need to help the less fortunate. It makes sense that we do what we can to help the children in a country like Pakistan. The hope might be that future generations are not only more educated, but perhaps more friendly with the U.S. It just seems like the "right" thing to do.
On the otherhand, our national debt is well over $15 trillion. So I ask you this: Are programs like this money well spent? Or would you, in fact, like to see our money spent more on programs like this versus on something else?
This also made me wonder, do other countries have money invested in U.S. programs the way we do? We aren't a starving or Third World country, but we do have our own social and economic issues. If you know any more about this topic, do feel free to leave a comment and/or links to help us all understand a little better.

West stops Bay run in state baseball semifinals, 9-4
In the end, the third time was not the charm for the Whitefish Bay baseball team in its WIAA state semiifnal with North Shore champ West Bend West Friday afternoon in Stevens Point.
The eventual state runner-up Spartans broke open a close game with five runs in the sixth against Bay starter Justin Alt, who had been the starting pitcher in each of the previous two match-ups and reliever Bob Linneman, in pulling away for a 9-4 decision.
"They're just a good team and as I've told the kids before, there is no shame in losing to a team like that, especially if they play better than you did, like they did today," said Blue Duke coach jay Wojcinski. "They've been up here (state) a lot lately and there's a reason for that."
The loss ended the Blue Dukes winning streak at seven and gave them a final record of 21-14, while the Spartans (28-6) extended their winning streak to 19 games. That run came to an end in the finals later that afternoon at Bukolt Park as for the second season in a row, Franklin beat West, 5-4, for the state championship.
Bay, which had advanced to the semifinals the day before with a 9-2 quarterfinal victory over Sheboygan Falls, looked like it was going to get blown out by the Spartans, which had beaten them by a combined score of 12-2 in their two regular season match-ups.» Read Full Article
Bay's state dreams dashed in semifinal
Whitefish Bay rallied from an early 4-0 deficit, but West Bend West had too much firepower in a WIAA summer baseball state semifinal Friday afternoon at Bukolt Park in Stevens Point. The Spartans won, 9-4.
The Spartans, winners of the North Shore Conference in which Bay took fifth place this season, took a 4-0 lead thanks largely to Shane Hayes, who doubled, homered and drove in three runs in the first two innings.
But after the first six Blue Dukes went down in order, all three members of the bottom third reached base and scored in the third to make it 4-3. Starter Joshua Alt retired 10 batters in a row at one point as the tide seemed to be turning, but West Bend West scored five runs in the sixth to put the game out of reach.
Bay (21-14) was making its first state appearance since 2002. West Bend West advanced to face Franklin in the state-title game later Friday afternoon. Davis Yach's two-run single capped the rally.
Collin DeMuth's RBI single in the seventh capped the scoring.
Whitefish Bay on to semifinals
The Whitefish Bay baseball team made easy work of Sheboygan Falls in the WIAA summer baseball state quarterfinal Thursday afternoon at Bukolt Park in Stevens Point, advancing the semifinals this evening against either West Bend West or West Salem.
Bay notched a 9-2 win, winning in its first state appearance since 2002. The Blue Dukes (18-13) broke a 2-2 tie in the third inning with a five-run inning, including back-to-back doubles by Garrett DeMuth and Justin Alt to drive in runs.
Jack Fagan picked up the winning, allowing five hits in seven innings.

Brown Deer police searching for armed robbery suspects
Brown Deer Police are investigating an attempted robbery that occurred about 9:45 a.m. Monday at U.S. Bank, 4200 W. Brown Deer Road.
According to police, a uniformed security guard who was conducting business at the bank, but not employed or on duty at U.S. Bank, reported that two masked suspects enter the facility. They fled shortly thereafter when they noticed the security guard. One of the suspects was seen carrying a handgun, according to a news release.
A third suspect was in what was believed to have been a get-away vehicle that was stolen. Brown Deer Police recovered the vehicle shortly after the incident.
The description of the suspects:
No. 1: tall black male, wearing a black hooded sweatshirt, blue jeans and a black mask with a white emblem on the front; suspect was holding a handgun, possibly a 9-millimeter semiautomatic» Read Full Article
Whitefish Bay earns first state berth since 2002
That 1-9 mid-season stretch for the Whitefish Bay baseball team is far in the rearview mirror as the surprising, senior-dominated Blue Dukes can now look forward to their first trip to the WIAA State Tournament in nine years after a resounding 11-3 sectional victory over North Shore rival Cedarburg on Saturday.
"We actually learned a lot in that streak," said Bay tri-captain and shortstop Mike Leckie. "We learned what not to do (laughs). We knew we had a good team. we just had to get back to doing the things that helped us at the beginning of the season."
The Blue Dukes (20-13) will now take on Sheboygan Falls (16-9) in a WIAA state quarterfinal game at 3:35 p.m. Wednesday, July 27 at Bukolt Park in Stevens Point. The semifinals and finals will be played on Thursday, July 28.
For fourth-year Bay coach Jay Wojcinski, who gave the sectional championship plaque to his young daughter Taylor (the "official" mascot of the team) and then hoisted her and the trophy high in the air as the Blue Dukes celebrated their second state trip in school history, it was only a matter of getting back to basics.
"We just needed to get back to doing what we did best," he said. "Finishing games, playing through the seventh inning, and holding leads once we got them. It took us awhile, but we finally got back to it."» Read Full Article
Homestead's comeback not enough; Cedarburg to face Bay in sectional final
Ten men left on base, critical errors that led to pivotal Cedarburg rallies, and a listless early attitude left the Homestead baseball team down 10-0 to Cedarburg in the fifth inning of the WIAA sectional baseball semifinal at Whitefish Bay Friday afternoon.
But in the end, all Highlander coach Ernie Millard could do after a heroic rally that came up just a run short in a 10-9 defeat to the Bulldogs was hug one kid after another, especially slugger and team RBI leader Max Beckers, who struck out swinging trying to tie the game with one mighty blow in the top of the seventh.
"I've been talking about the character of these eight seniors all season," said Millard. "They're just fantastic guys and I will miss them terribly when they're gone, not just because of their baseball ability but because of the people they are. I'll just miss being around them."
With the loss, the Highlanders finished the season at 19-13 while Cedarburg (20-10) advanced to a sectional final date with Whitefish Bay (19-13) at noon Saturday back at the Blue Dukes' Cahill Park. Bay advanced to the final with an 8-1 win over Port Washington in Friday's early semifinal.
The Blue Dukes have edged the Bulldogs twice this season by 5-4 and 7-5 counts, respectively.» Read Full Article
Brown Deer apartments for seniors, disabled win board approval
A pair of Brown Deer apartment developments, one aimed at seniors and the other at people with disabilities, won Village Board approval this week.
The projects, which I first reported last week, involve an expansion of Deerwood Crossing, a 66-unit senior apartment development at 4195 W. Bradley Road, and the construction of Bradley Crossing, planned for the 4300 block of W. Bradley Road.
Both projects are being developed by Jewish Family Services and General Capital Group LLP.
Reporter Mary Buckley, of Brown Deer Now.com, has details on the board's approval.
River Hills draws scrutiny for trying to sell federal block grant
River Hills, Milwaukee County's richest suburb, has found little use for what has become an annual allocation of about $20,000 in federal community development block grant money.
So village leaders instead have cut deals with other suburbs to lend or transfer the grant money and have even sought unsuccessfully to sell the River Hills block grant allocation to another community.
Those practices have drawn increased scrutiny by the county and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development, the agency in charge of the block grant program.
HUD spokesman Brian Sullivan said this week that the agency would review the River Hills practice "to see if it violates any rule or law. . . . It just strikes us as a bad idea." Sullivan, based in Washington, D.C., questioned why the county wouldn't simply transfer the money earmarked for River Hills to some other suburb or allowable use if River Hills itself had no need for the funds.
Sometimes the suburbs cut side deals, in effect borrowing from another suburb's HUD allocation.» Read Full Article
Sears Home Appliance Showroom coming to Mequon
A Sears Home Appliance Showroom will go into the former Blockbuster Video space at the Pavilions of Mequon shopping center.
The video store closed as part of a nationwide shutdown of hundreds of Blockbuster stores.
Sears Home Appliance Showrooms are operated by independent franchise owners. The stores typically are located in areas without full-size Sears stores.
Peter Glaser and Ben Weiland of CB Richard Ellis brokered the deal for the 6,328-square-foot store.
Brown Deer board OKs development agreements for Bradley Crossing
The Village Board approved development agreements for the construction of Bradley Crossing, a 60-unit apartment complex that will have 30 units set aside for residents with disabilities, and for an additional 33 units that will be the second phase of Deerwood Crossing.
Bradley Crossing, which will be built in the 4300 block of West Bradley Road, will also have a community center for village residents. Plans call for the 6,000-square-foot center to be scheduled and operated by the village Park and Recreation Department.
The second phase at Deerwood Crossing will provide additional apartments for seniors. The popular apartments for seniors 55 and older are owned by Jewish Family Services, and have a long waiting list.
The village will sell two acres of land adjacent to Deerwood Crossing to JFS for $1 to allow for the expansion. The financing for Deerwood Crossing is not completed, according to Steve Schnoll of General Capital, which is building the apartments. Construction could start on the additional 33 units in either the fall or spring.
Financing for Bradley Crossing is complete, with construction likely to start in the fall. The village will contribute $105,000 to the cost of construction.» Read Full Article
Board approves trimesters for Homestead
Mequon - Despite a petition of 500 signatures asking for a delay, the Mequon-Thiensville School Board voted unanimously Monday to move ahead with a switch to a trimester schedule at Homestead High School.
The proposed change would switch the district's only high school from a schedule where teachers are in the classroom six out of seven classes per day to a schedule where they teach four out of five possible classes.
Mequon-Thiensville is addressing an issue that could become more common in public schools, as school boards looking to save money in any way they can consider squeezing more class hours into teachers' workdays at the expense of prep time.
The change will go into effect for the 2012-'13 school year.
A study team began studying schedule alternatives in September as a result of negotiations with the teachers union over the 2009-'11 contract, Superintendent Demond Means said. The current schedule was put in place to save money, but there was no analysis on possible effects on education.» Read Full Article

Retired teacher receives nearly $37,000 in severance package
Whitefish Bay - The School Board likely signaled its intention to continue to offer severance packages to eligible employees when it approved the retirement of Richards School second-grade teacher Susan Rymer on July 13.
Rymer, who has taught in the schools since 1992 and in the Whitnall district for 10 years prior to that, retired with the severance package allowed under the now defunct teachers' contract for the last school year.
The district is developing an employee handbook that will spell out working conditions and employee benefits but does not expect that to be finished for several months. Some portions of it, including a grievance procedure, will be in place for the start of the school year, according to discussion at the recent School Board meeting.
"For other employee groups we still have a retiree severance package," Director of Human Resources Mark Kapocius said after the meeting. "This can be seen as a signal that we will continue some sort of a severance package, although the board will have to look at exactly what it wants to provide."
Teachers were required to submit notice of their intent to retire by Feb. 1, but the Personnel and Policy Committee, chaired by Member Pam Woodard, accepted Rymer's later notice. The request was submitted within the last few weeks.» Read Full Article

GT remains red-hot by stopping Homestead, 10-6
Germantown leftfielder Dylan Krivoshein bided his time last year playing the role of reserve and good soldier on the senior-dominated WIAA state qualifying Warhawks, not complaining, just doing his job and trying to help out anyway he could.
A year later, playing for a new coach and with several top seniors gone, the four-sport athlete Krivoshein has earned himself a starter's role and added responsibilities, such as hitting in the lead-off spot in the order.
A red-hot order as it turns out, as behind Krivoshein's four hits, the Warhawks won their fourth game in as many days and their eighth in their last nine tries as they overpowered border rival Homestead, 10-6, Friday night.
"I think we're just really coming together as a team," said Krivoshein, "and the offense is just doing really well right now. We've all had a lot of repetitions lately so we're seeing the ball a lot better."
Indeed, as it was the third straight game for Germantown scoring in double digits and its fifth in this current streak. The Warhawks improved to 10-6 in the North Shore and 16-8 overall, good for third in the North Shore, while Homestead fell to 8-9 and 15-11, respectively.» Read Full Article

Residents, river group threaten to sue Glendale over curb and gutters
Glendale - A group of residents and Milwaukee Riverkeeper think Glendale's plan to install concrete curb and gutter on Alberta Court is a violation of the federal Clean Water Act and they have put the city on notice that they intend to sue if the plan moves along.
The city has already started work on the larger Alberta Court rehabilitation project, which includes the repair of the sewer, installation of new water mains and additional storm sewer drains, re-pitching the road, new driveway approaches and the installation of concrete curb and gutter.
Half of the 12 residents on the cul de sac oppose the curb and gutter, preferring the grass-lined ditches currently in front of their homes.
Mike McCabe said aesthetically most residents on the cul de sac and in the Clovernook subdivision feel that curb and gutter are a minus.
"We like the rural look of the grass swales," he said.» Read Full Article

Without a game like Pictionary (sold separately), this device and the "game" that comes packaged with it are pretty worthless. It's kind of like MS Paint for your TV. Picked up one for cheap for Christmas, and it's hardly been used.
@tcanning I disagree I downloaded the drivers for mine to work on PC and it's pretty awesome.
Well, I bought one. I had a $5 RewardZone certificate that was about to expire on me, so it ended up costing me just $1.09, and the Best Buy is on my way home.
Probably still wouldn't have bought it, but after hearing from @tcanning that there are PC drivers out there, I figured it was worth exploring for a buck.
I ordered a week ago and just got an email stating it was on backorder and would be canceled Feb 1 if they couldn't fill the order :(
@neohemp: Maybe I'll give that a shot. Thanks
Was about to post that we got this for the kids at Christmas for $10 and it is now a doorstop, but the PC drivers idea is intriguing. I'll look into it. Thanks for the info.
@velledriver: Same thing happened to me, but I called customer service and got them to have a store that had a bunch ship one to my local Best Buy (as there wasn't one available anywhere locally). I told them that their system should have known that they didn't have enough to ship when I placed the order and that they should certainly know that they aren't going to get anymore in stock as the product has been discontinued by the manufacturer. I also gave them a recent personal example of the right way to do business in a situation like this. YMMV.
Read the reviews at Best Buy. Looks like a 15 minute game that will sit on the shelf. Im going to pass, even though its cheap.
I just saw this on G4's Worst Accessories Ever List.
Hey look! Its THQ downfall...
@jashobeam: It's like owning a piece of history. I like to collect products that brought down companies.
Took a look into the PC drivers, thinking it might be a cheap way to get a tablet for drawing in photoshop, etc.
This might be important for those looking to purchase it for that particular reason:
"Will you ever add Photoshop pressure sensitivity to it?
No. Photoshop looks for actual USB tablet devices, which this is not. This is just some code to communicate with the tablet and/or 360 receiver directly. There is no way to provide pressure sensitivity in Windows without the device actually showing up as a tablet instead of a custom device. It's either impossible or extremely difficult (I haven't decided yet) to create a virtual USB device and allow this functionality; I'm not going to work on it. "
Source: http://brandonw.net/udraw/
I don't know if there are other driver out there. Still might be an interesting grab.
This review sums it up on the wii version = http://www.engadget.com/2010/11/15/thq-udraw-gametablet-for-wii-review/
and the followup of the HD versions = http://www.engadget.com/2011/06/08/thq-udraw-gametablet-goes-hd-we-go-hands-on-video/
For this price it might be worth looking at for the pc though.
It's a cool little tablet if you have a youngster. If you pick up the Marvel Super Hero Squad game for it, that's a fun little game and really showed the potential of the device. For this price it's a no brainer if only for the easy ass achievements from the paint game.
I actually bought both PS3 and 360 versions last week when they were $7. The PS3 version comes with a USB dongle and works with the PC in the quickest, most straightforward fashion. Nice wireless novelty tablet.
I got the 360 version because I recently built a custom arcade stick for another console, and this possibly gets me a very cheap wireless 360 controller to pad-hack into it as well... haven't opened that one yet to see if there's solder points for shoulder buttons yet though.

COLLINSVILLE, Okla. (WIBW) -- Work got underway Tuesday to remove the wreckage of a small plane that plunged into a vacant home in a Tulsa suburb on Sunday, killing two Manhattan residents on board.
A salvage team began hauling away pieces of the airplane Tuesday morning in the town of Collinsville, the CBS affiliate in Tulsa reports. The crew is working with the National Transportation Safety Board to make sure key pieces are more closely inspected before they're taken away.
Dr. Ron Marshall, 71, and Chris Gruber, 40, died when Marshall's plane went down on their way back to Manhattan.
Chris Gruber was the Director of Development for K-State's College of Veterinary Medicine and was an employee of the KSU Foundation who played an integral part in fundraising for research, projects, scholarships, equipment, etc.
Dr. Ronald Marshall was a well known retired physician who specialized in obstetrics & gynecology. The victims were family friends.
According to the FAA, the single-engine aircraft departed Tulsa International Airport around 5:50 Sunday night en route to Manhattan, where it was scheduled to land just after 7 PM. The plane went down inside the city limits of Collinsville, a suburb about 30 minutes northeast of Tulsa. It dropped off of FAA radar at 5:52 p.m.
The plane crashed into a house neighbors say was vacant and caused a small fire. No one on the ground was injured.
The FAA is investigating the crash along with the National Transportation Safety Board. Investigators say it could take up to a year to determine the cause of the crash.
The Oklahoma Medical Examiner's Office is working to scientifically identify the victims' remains.

Thomas has been made extremely popular
with his television series in more recent years. However, the real Thomas
the Tank Engine is much older. He first made his appearance in 1946. Thomas
was one character in a series of books about trains for children, and now
of course there is a television show and Thomas the Tank Engine coloring
pages. The Thomas of the books was a bit different from the Thomas we see
on television today. In the original stories, Thomas is rather cocky and
wants more respect from all the other engines and people on the island. In
the television show, he is kind to everyone and is always looking to help.
For a true Thomas fan, either version is perfectly okay so long as it
contains his favorite train.
Give us your feedback and comments so we can improve.

$$2b^2(1-b)\Rightarrow 2b^2 - 2b^3$$
$$a = b^2 + 2b^2 - 2b^3$$
$$a = 3b^2 - 2b^3$$
$$a + 2b^3 - 3b^2 = 0$$
is this right so far?

A Fine Flame
For just one evening every year, Segerstrom Center shines a bit brighter than normal, thanks to hundreds of votives that glimmer in its namesake hall. It's a beloved tradition on our coast—one that this time raised $2.2 million for the venerable institution. We are, of course, talking about the 40th annual Candlelight Concert. There was an incredible dinner and a bubbly bar, along with the event's first silent auction—and that served up goodies like two surfboards signed by The Beach Boys. And speaking of those cool crooners, the guys performed for revelers like center President Terry Dwyer, Sally Crockett, Elizabeth Segerstrom, and Moti and Idit Ferder, who hit the floor to groove to their classic tunes before the flames flickered their last. A glowing gala, indeed. –Photos by Steve Dawson, Joesan Diche, Doug Gifford and Happy Photos

Today's letters: Seven Falls
Published: Sunday, October 21, 2012 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, October 19, 2012 at 6:00 p.m.
To the editor: The county does not need to restore the Seven Falls development. With the $6 million received in the insurance settlement, the county should only restore the damaged streams and provide minimal access to the few completed homes in the area. No effort should be made to complete the developers plans. Restoration of streams and grading a few dirt roads should take less than 20 percent of the $6 million.
The balance of the money should be added to the countys rainy day reserves and a small part provided to Laurel Park for its new park. The economy is not improving, so the countys reserves will be needed, and Laurel Park was originally to get stream mitigation funds from the Seven Falls developer.
It will be totally unfair to the majority of Henderson County citizens if this money is used to continue the development, pave 5½ miles of roads and install utilities. The beneficiary of this diversion of the funds will be the developer who still controls the majority of the property. In Henderson County there are many unpaved roads and many areas without water and sewer service. This failed development should be no different.
Fix the stream for us all, but little more!

Whats he hiding?
To the editor: In his recent letter about restoring America, Ed Schoen ends by saying both candidates are from privileged backgrounds and implies that President Barack Obama is lying. This comparison is grossly inaccurate.
President Obama is not from a privileged background. He was raised by a single parent. He took out student loans to get through college loans he finished paying off just 10 years ago. I can identify with his story because it is very similar to mine and, therefore, he can identify with my life and millions of others like me.
The president has released 12 years of tax returns and his birth certificate. He has nothing to hide. On the other hand, why does Mr. Romney refuse to release tax returns despite pressure even from his own side? What is he hiding or possibly lying about?
I worked in corporate America for 40 years, fought through the barriers that confront women in business, and paid my dues. I am now retired and on Social Security and a victim, I am not.
I shall vote for the man who respects and will protect what I have accomplished, and who has not written me off.
Liz Agnello
Costly change
To the editor: Do you feel poorer today than four years ago? Why? Could it be the true inflation rate is 45 percent over the past four years? Yes, that is right, taking a normal basket of goods that we all use. Check it out at www.thepeoplehistory.com. The government inflation rate excludes food and energy, but we all eat, drive and use electricity. We all know gasoline was $1.84 in 2008 now its $3.60-plus, a 95 percent increase.
Poorer? In a headline from June 8, 2012, ABC News reported, Median Household Net Worth Down 35 Percent. Maybe thats why we know somethings wrong.
The true unemployment rate is 15.1 percent (U-6), which includes discouraged workers and the marginally attached plus part-time workers who say they would like to be working more, but for economic reasons could only find part-time work. (FactCheck.org.)
Did you hear that, because of EPA regulations, 200 or more coal-powered electricity plants will close at the end of this year? Yet air is cleaner today than 10 years ago. The power grid of the U.S. is stretched already. Why close plants before their replacements are up and running?
I do need a little hope, but I cant afford the change! How about you?
Mark Casoria
A little advice
To the editor: After seeing the film 2016: Obamas America, watching FOX News extensively and contemplating the future of our nation, I can no longer support President Barack Obama and am willing to offer Mitt Romneys campaign crucial foreign policy advice for his election.
I would be more than happy to spend countless hours studying Wikipedia to understand the subtle, complicated nuances of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict while keeping him briefed daily.
I would suggest the team take the 47 percent blunder, average it with Paul Ryans similar 30 percent comment and let the public know that a mere 38.5 percent of Americans are lazy freeloaders. As Julie Andrews once sang, just a spoonful of sugar makes the medicine go down!
To ease Vladimir Putins mind because Mr. Romney called Russia our No. 1 geopolitical foe, I would suggest he make a trip to the country and proclaim to the people I love your country! I love driving by the Kamchatka volcanoes while sipping Medovukha! Our teachers wont have to break out those grainy Stop, Drop and Roll films if my fella is elected.
Got problems winning the blue-collar vote? Put on a construction hat for a photo op! Nah, my mans above that.
Robert Michael Gossett
Horse Shoe
Just come clean
To the editor: The two Sunday columnists Mike Tower and LeRoy Goldman, who have repeatedly emphasized their political neutrality (shades of FOX News), have become openly and increasingly hostile to the Democratic Party.
Mr. Goldman whines that Hayden Rogers has not provided him with an interview. Perhaps Mr. Rogers remembers, as I and many others remember, the open rudeness shown by Mr. Goldman at Brevard College where Goldman participated as a panelist on the platform.
Goldman sat with his back to the other panelists with a heavy scowl and arms firmly crossed, with questions that could be considered less than fair, and obviously to place Mr. Rogers on the spot while favoring Mark Meadows, who is obviously running for office against President Barack Obama.
Mike Tower insists on throwing all incumbents out, however, he never mentions any Republican incumbents, only President Obama, which he did in the boldest of terms in a recent column.
It is high time you gentlemen come clean and declare yourselves in an honest and forthright way that both of you are strident Republicans, and let the chips fall where they may.

Tuesday, December 02, 2008
(COLUMBIA, Mo.) -- Long-time Columbia resident J.W. "Stan" Stafford has retired from the Columbia College Board of Trustees after 23 years of service. After a unanimous vote, the board named him trustee emeritus.
Stafford and his late wife, Lois, have been supporters of Columbia College since 1974. Through a substantial donation from the couple, the college constructed the J.W. and Lois Stafford Library in 1989.
In 2002, Stafford also donated one-quarter of the $2 million renovation cost of the Southwell Complex. The complex now includes more than 550 chair-back seats and seating for 1,000; two courts for basketball, volleyball or tennis; the Columbia College Athletic Hall of Fame; locker rooms, training rooms and more. It�s also where commencement is held annually.
"Stan has my sincere thanks for his tremendous support of this great institution," said Dr. Gerald Brouder, president of Columbia College. "The buildings that students, faculty and staff use for recreation and academic achievement every day are the fruits of his unprecedented generosity."
The Staffords' daughter, Frances Stafford Koepke, her husband Gene Koepke and their children, Mark and Laura, also have demonstrated generous support for Columbia College, especially for Cougar athletics. They are known as ardent fans. Yet there is not one alumnus in the family.
"I just saw in Columbia College an institution with value, one worth supporting," said Stafford, now retired.
The Staffords' philanthropy is evident throughout the city of Columbia. As many as three University of Missouri basketball scholarships, the Martin Luther King Jr. Memorial Garden off Stadium Boulevard, the Woodhaven Learning Center (housing for moderately disabled residents) and the renovation of Stephens College's Senior Hall were all made possible through Stafford donations.
"The community has been good to me, and I have tried to give something back," said Stafford.
Stafford was born in 1918, and his family owned the local Pepsi-Cola bottler for 60 years. He married Lois Smith in 1939 and received a bachelor's degree in agricultural education from the University of Missouri-Columbia in 1940.
He is a Mason, past-president and past-governor of the MO-KAN Federation of the Cosmopolitan Luncheon Club, and has held board positions with Woodhaven, Cosmopolitan and the University of Missouri Diabetes Center. He also is a member of the First Christian Church of Columbia.

Wall Street Cuts Climb Pay Ladder
Morgan Stanley to Trim 1,600 Positions, Targeting Many Veterans, Amid Ongoing Pressure on Costs
High-earning Wall Street veterans are increasingly vulnerable as financial firms take their belt-tightening a notch further.
Morgan Stanley MS -0.45 % plans to lay off 1,600 employees, largely in its mainstay securities unit, according to people familiar with the situation. The New York company is focusing the cuts on senior ranks and also plans to promote a smaller number of employees to managing director this month than in any year since early 2009, one of these people said.
Senior traders and bankers can take home several million dollars in pay annually.
Facing intense pressure to cut costs amid soft revenue and stout competition, executives at Morgan Stanley and other firms increasingly are weighing the compensation of higher-paid employees against the experience that banks need to fulfill their promises to clients.
Shareholders such as activist investor Daniel Loeb, whose Third Point LLC on Wednesday disclosed a stake in Morgan Stanley, are clamoring for stronger board oversight and better returns after poor stock performance stretching back to the financial crisis.
Those trends add up to a nervous time for people who have spent their careers on Wall Street. "Downsizing is affecting senior people more than ever," says Michael Karp, chief executive of financial recruiting firm Options Group.
Cheaper employees look more attractive to keep as banks and securities firms clamp down on pay and other costs amid poor business conditions. In recent months, Citigroup Inc. C -0.61 % said it would eliminate 11,000 jobs, and UBS AG said it would cut 10,000 positions and sharply reduce its fixed-income trading business.
"To the extent that you can pay somebody less to do the same job somebody else is doing, without hurting revenue, you are better off," said Sandler O'Neill + Partners analyst Jeff Harte.
Goldman Sachs Group Inc. GS -1.07 % has said it has no plans for any more job reductions. The firm in July 2011 started on a plan to squeeze costs by $1.5 billion and cut more than 1,000 jobs, on top of its annual culling of 5% of its worst-performing staffers. This year's trims are expected to take place in February and March and could swell beyond 5% if results are weak, said a person familiar with the company's plans.
Goldman's partnership ranks also have been dwindling over the past year. After swelling to nearly 500 after the financial crisis, Goldman last year quietly encouraged some of its longest-serving partners to move on.
At J.P. Morgan Chase JPM -0.20 % & Co., 10 executives over roughly three years have left the New York company's operating committee, a group that currently has 12 members and comprises key decision makers, as the largest U.S. bank assembles a younger set of top leaders.
Morgan Stanley has been under pressure to deliver better results within the fixed-income business, particularly from its disappointing bond-trading unit. While parts of the bond desk have been hit hard in past layoffs, this round is expected to come down fairly evenly across the various securities businesses at the firm, people familiar with the firm's strategy noted.
The firm is now in the midst of scaling back riskier parts of its fixed-income trading operations by shrinking risky assets by about one-fifth by the end of 2014 as it copes with poor returns for the business and higher global capital requirements under new regulations. It also is relying more on electronic trading, reducing the need for as many employees.
The company's latest cuts follow a reduction of 4,200 employees through the first nine months of 2012.
Morgan Stanley doesn't expect to make any trims among its roughly 16,800 financial advisers, the brokerage force that is the centerpiece of Chairman and Chief Executive James Gorman's push to build up the firm's wealth-management business. The unit offers more stable revenue than the volatile trading and banking businesses.
The firm could reduce head count further later in the year if markets turn lower, but it doesn't have any plans to do so at the moment, said a person familiar with its plans.
Morgan Stanley officials hope the cuts boost returns quickly.
Wells Fargo Securities analyst Matthew Burnell estimates that Morgan Stanley's core return on tangible common equity, a measure of economic performance, will be 5% in 2012. That is down from 6% in 2011 and half of some peers, he said.
Shares of Morgan Stanley fell 3 cents Wednesday to $19.62. The stock has climbed 2.6% in 2013 and has risen 21% over the past 12 months.

Can someone please explain what the purpose of this code is:
$text = str_replace(']]>', ']]>', $text);
I'm referring to a line of code inside wp_trim_excerpt(), but I've seen something very similar in some other wp functions as well.
On the surface, I would say it's not doing anything at all, but I have to give the wordpress developers more credit than that, so I'm sure there's a reason for this. I've looked into the php manual for str_replace to see if there is some special return value but everything is as I would expect.
Is this some sort of ninja data validation technique?

I have started writing a technical book. I wish to publish it as a work-in-progress.
- I want new visitors to see the current contents, probably starting at a TOC.
- I want return visitors to see what I've changed since their previous visit, also probably a TOC but sections marked with revision date.
- I want everyone to be able to make comments.
- I want some way of dealing with spam that doesn't take up too much of my time.
- I want to distinguish minor edits from additions and major revisions.
I think that doing this as a blog wouldn't work well because visitors couldn't easily see the table of contents or otherwise see the context of a new addition.
Has anyone seen anything like this?
Edit: I'm not looking for a collaboration tool where multiple people write something together. I'm looking for a tool where only I write and publish, and anyone else can make comments, which are also visible to everyone.
I'm trying to do a first draft in MediaWiki, marking all the main pages as protected and leaving all the discussion pages as unprotected. I think this will fail on points 2 and 4.

On my Samsung Galaxy 551 I can remove the MicroSD card without needing to remove the battery and consequently turn off my cellphone. Should I remove my SD without turning off the phone? Will I damage something if I do it?
You should first dismount the card. You can do this via
Yes you will be able to remove the SD Card as Mathew said in his answer. First you need to Unmount SD Card from Settings and then remove the SD Card. In this case no need to remove the Battery or SIM card.
But there are some things that you need to take care of.
After removing the SD Card you can see a status message saying "SD Card removed" in the notification bar of the phone.
You might need to restart your phone after inserting the same SD card back to the phone. Some of the applications might not work. I am sure this happens on 2.1 Eclair devices.

Agree with customer's write up. Had same experience. By Swimming Upstream on 10/6/2015Swimming Upstream wouldn't recommend this product to a friendAgree with customer's write up. Had same experience
quality issues By Qais on 8/17/2015Qais wouldn't recommend this product to a friendSo you need a UV sterilizer, well, this is a very nice once except that quality issues. One of the selling points of this UV sterilizers is that it has a good reputation as far as the quality is concerned, however after about 1 year, the power supply went out. I thought it was the light, so got a new light, nope. It is the power supply. Contacting the manufacturer did not help, they said that just because it is over 1 year, I am out of luck. So 90 bucks for a new one. I don't think I would have purchased this had a I known that every year, I would be paying for a new bulb and new power supply. That is over 150 bucks a year to maintain UV sterilizer. Bulb I can understand but power supply too. Otherwise the rest of it is built like a tank but the critical part that will give out on you is the power supply. and it is huge which is a plus, means it is working. I contact the manufacturer twice and they said, nope if it is over 1 year, you have to buy a new power supply.

I am writing a research proposal for a project on voter turnout as related to proximity to mass transit. The first part of my project would require geocoding hundreds of thousands of addresses, but I'd rather not have my laptop running ArcGIS for days on end to do it.

DUE WEST, S.C. – After Erskine grabbed a 2-1 lead following the doubles round, Anderson University men's tennis stormed back in the singles round to earned a narrow 5-4 victory over its archrival Wednesday afternoon at the Erskine Tennis Complex.
The win propels the Trojans to above .500 at 8-7 for the year, while the Flying Fleet drop to 2-15 overall.
In the doubles round, the tandem of sophomore Paul Michael Calhoun and senior Danilo Faria claimed an 8-5 win over Erskine's pair of Andre Andre and Robert Clarke at the No. 2 position. Despite the win, AU was unable to claim another doubles win as freshmen Juan Carracedo and Mateo Rivas fell 8-6 at No. 1, while sophomores Tomas Passalacqua and Inaki Iriberry dropped 9-7 at No. 3.
Anderson answered in the singles round with four wins, including three wins coming at the bottom of the Trojan lineup. Iriberry (No. 5) and Faria (No. 6) both cruised to straight-set wins, as Iriberry knocked off Alan Pearce, 6-1, 6-0, while Faria defeated Robert Clarke 6-0, 6-1.
With Carracedo notching a 6-3, 6-4 victory over Erskine's Jack West at the No. 1 spot, Calhoun sealed the Trojans' nonconference win with a three-set 7-6, 4-6, 6-4 triumph over Andre at No. 4. The match-clinching victory was Calhoun's ninth win of the season.
Anderson returns to the courts on Friday when it welcomes South Atlantic Conference foe Carson-Newman to the Upstate. First serve from Max Grubbs Memorial Courts is scheduled for 2 p.m.

I have a two set of key {36,77} and {50,117},
How can validate if it is a valid RSA public keys? Is there any simple method?
I have a two set of key {36,77} and {50,117},
How can validate if it is a valid RSA public keys? Is there any simple method?
That depends on exactly what you mean by a "valid RSA public key"; in general, it is difficult to validate a public key without the corresponding private key (unless the public key is obviously bad).
If you mean that there is a corresponding private key $d$ such that $(M^e)^d = M \mod N$ for all messages $M$, then there are two conditions; if both are met, then there will always be such a $d$:
Note that there are varients of RSA for which a public key might not meet these assumptions; they deal with the fact that $M^e$ might not have a unique inverse in various ways.
As for how to determine whether a public key meets these criteria, well, neither critieria is feasible to verify for a large key. On the other hand, it is easy to note by inspection that your examples do not; they both have an even value of $e$, and even numbers are never relatively prime to $\phi(N)$ (which is also even). In addition, your second example has $N=117$, which is not square-free (as it has a divisor of $3^2$).
On the other hand, a "valid RSA public key" might mean a key that meets the above constraints, and is secure. This implies that $e>1$ (easy to validate), and $N$ is hard to factor. If $N$ is large enough to be not easily factored, this also is hard to validate.
Thirdly, by a "valid RSA public key", you might mean "all of the above, and in addition, someone knows the private key". The only way you can accertain that is to work with the person who is supposed to know the private key (and, for example, have a Zero Knowledge Proof that they do indeed know the factorization of $N$).
