Jagemann Stamping Company Completes Expansion In Manitowoc, Wisconsin
Jagemann currently has locations in Manitowoc and Murfreesboro, Tennessee. "We are excited with the progress of this project, which will allow us the necessary space and equipment to achieve our growth goals and better meet customers' needs," said Tom Jagemann, the firm's Chief Executive Officer.
The firm achieved its planned growth with assistance of the City of Manitowoc, Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation, and Jagemann's financing partners. The company is also eligible for $620,000 in tax credits through the Wisconsin Economic Development Corporation. The tax credits will be distributed annually based on the number of new, full-time positions created over a three-year period.
"We are pleased to partner with Jagemann for its expansion to accommodate additional capacity and facilitate increased international penetration," said Reed Hall CEO and Secretary of WEDC.
"This $18.9 million expansion is a huge boost for the Manitowoc area," Gov. Scott Walker said. "The company is well on its way with recruiting efforts, as well as the hiring and training of new employees."

MARIANA ZUKOWSKI, PLAINTIFF,v.NEW YORK CITY TRANSIT AUTHORITY, MANAGEMENT EMPLOYEES OF 40 YUKON AVE, STATEN ISLAND, NY 10314, MR. MCGOWAN, MR. TICHIO, NEW LABOR RELATIONS MANAGER, DEFENDANTS.
DEARIE, Chief Judge.
Notwithstanding plaintiff's industriousness during the early years of this litigation and the charitable ruling she received from this Court last September, which allowed her case to continue in the face of defendants' request for summary judgment, plaintiff Mariana Zukowski has not been heard from since her appearance at a conference before Magistrate Lois Bloom on December 9, 2009.
Inter alia, (i) defendants report that they did not receive a response to a discovery request they sent plaintiff on March 19, 2010 for materials that were apparently released to her by the Department of Labor pursuant to this Court's September 29, 2009 Memorandum and Order; (ii) by Order of Magistrate Lois Bloom dated December 9, 2009, plaintiff was directed to respond to defendants' renewed summary judgment motion (which was served upon her on or about May 3, 2010 pursuant to the same order) by June 10, 2010, but to date she has neither submitted opposition papers nor requested an extension; (iii) defendants' counsel reports that, having received no opposing motion papers, she telephoned plaintiff but that the number she had was not in service; (iv) by Order dated June 10, 2010, Magistrate Bloom alerted plaintiff that she was being afforded one "last chance to file whatever she wants the Court to consider in opposition to defendants' motion" by June 25, 2010 and that "[s]he will not be given another chance;" and (iv) a writ clerk from the Court's pro se staff, at this Court's request, this week placed a call to plaintiff's latest telephone number of record on July 28, 2010 and, having explained that he was a member of the Court's pro se staff phoning in connection with Ms. Zukowski's pro se lawsuit pending in this Court, was told by the gentleman who answered the phone that "there is no one here by that name."
All litigants, even those appearing pro se, bear the simple obligation of notifying the Court of a change in address or telephone number, and even the unrepresented prejudice their adversaries and needlessly burden the Court when they miss deadlines and ignore correspondence and Court orders. A litigant's neglect of the claims she herself elected to bring to Court will not be tolerated, especially in an action entering its fifth year on the Court's docket.
Accordingly, the Court concludes that dismissal of this action for failure to prosecute is appropriate. See generally Lewis v. Rawson, 564 F.3d 569, 576 (2d. Cir. 2009) (listing five factors to be examined when dismissing for lack of prosecution); Deptoal v. Doe, 04 CV 1379 (DRH) (JO), 2005 WL 2483341 (E.D.N.Y. Oct. 7, 2005) (pro se civil rights action dismissed for lack of prosecution, with prejudice where, inter alia, plaintiff was unreachable for four months); Love v. Amerigroup Corp., 09 CV 4233 (ILG)(RR) (E.D.N.Y. June 2, 2010) (recommending dismissal with prejudice when, inter alia, plaintiff remained absentee for five months).
Because dismissals for lack of prosecution are ordinarily ordered with prejudice, see Fed. R. Civ. P. 41(b), the most critical of the factors to be considered is "the need to alleviate court calendar congestion [] balanced against plaintiff's right to an opportunity for a day in court." Lewis, 564 F.3d at 576 (internal citation omitted). Judge Bianco recently concluded that in some circumstances the due process balance in the lack of prosecution context was best struck by ordering dismissal without prejudice, see Beeks v. Reilly, 2009 WL 2568531, *2-3 (E.D.N.Y. Aug, 19, 2009). For comparable reasons, the Court concludes that, although dismissal with prejudice is appropriate in this case, the Clerk is directed to stay entry of final judgment for 21 days from the date of entry of this Memorandum & Order.

Contemplative Psychology values the willingness of the psychotherapist to work on her own deep growth, working on harmful patterns, emotions, history, and mental chatter, so she can be present and embodied for her clients. Emotions hold deep wisdom. My intent is to guide clients to find inner resources, recognize innate wisdom, and attune to deep somatic wisdom.
Reiki is a gentle energy healing modality that can be used as a stand-alone therapy or as a compliment for other therapeutic approaches. Sessions center on gentle body work (fully-clothed). My approach to Reiki is supplemented by my training in Shamanic Arts, t'ai chi, Somatic Breath work, Maitri Space Awareness practice and Body-based meditation.
Every human being is a completely unique event!
"A truly therapeutic approach to astrology is one that explores the horoscope's symbolism through dialogue, not a monologue of psychic predictions.

text: 000 FXUS65 KRIW 300609 AFDRIW Area Forecast Discussion National Weather Service Riverton WY 1108 PM MST Tue Nov 29 2016 .SHORT TERM...Tonight through Friday Updated to cancel the high wind warning for northern Johnson County as the high winds earlier have begun to trend down. Large upper low is slowly relinquishing it`s grip on our forecast area this afternoon. Even with that said, there is still some significant effects. High winds continue across Nrn Johnson County where winds have gusted over 60 mph much of the day. This warning is out through 5 pm and the timing looks pretty good. Otherwise, we still have a few mainly higher terrain/mountain snow showers to deal with. They will gradually decrease to mainly the higher peaks overnight. On Wednesday a weak ridge moves into the west with a rather weak moist upglide signature developing as the day wears on in the far west. Looks like a high pop low qpf type event with a couple inches of fluff for some of the mountains and a skiff to an inch possible in the far west valleys. Before that, we may have to deal with some patchy fog in the far west with brief clearing tonight. Maybe more stratus for YNP. As our next system splits with the building upstream ridge, we get a developing upper low trying to develop near the western Wyo border late Thursday into Thursday evening. System is fighting the bigger picture of a ridge so don`t expect this system to have a lot of punch. Favorable track to bring some brief upslope to the Lander Foothills but not sure it`ll be much more than a brief shot of flurries or very light snow Thursday Night/early Friday. Otherwise, we`ll get some higher elevation flurries/snow showers with a chance of snow over the I80 corridor. System drops quickly southward with improving conds as the day wears on Friday. .LONG TERM...Friday night through Tuesday Weak high pressure late Friday into Friday night will be short lived as shortwave energy and moisture approach WY in NW mid level flow. Mountain snow showers early Saturday morning should spread to the far western valleys Saturday, with the snow moving south as the day continues. All model guidance shifts the NW mid level flow to westerly flow by Sunday afternoon. This looks to be another good period of mountain snowfall for the western mountains with the Bighorns perhaps picking up a couple and the basins east of the divide remaining relatively dry. The western valleys should pick up a fair bit as well. With the flow more westerly on Sunday, temperatures should rebound to the 30s and low 40s in the lower elevations, and wind through the RKS to CPR corridor will be gusty and strong. The initial shortwave trough from the Pacific Northwest looks to move through the state and into the northern plains on Monday, although the model guidance is in disagreement with the timing and strength. The GFS is currently trending faster and stronger than the ECMWF. Regardless, the initial cold push Monday is forecast to be followed by a Canadian push of cold air on Tuesday. Details on snow potential are still uncertain, but amounts don`t look too high unless the ECMWF forecast pans out with the 500 mb low closing in southern WY. The shortwave energy should still move quickly into the southern plains Wednesday, with Wednesday morning looking to be the coldest thus far across the state with subzero low temperatures. && .AVIATION.../06Z ISSUANCE/ EAST OF THE DIVIDE...KCOD/KCPR/KLND/KRIW/KWRL ROUTES VFR conditions with increasing mid-high level clouds late today, but especially tonight. Winds will also be light, except breezy southwest winds around KCPR. WEST OF THE DIVIDE...KBPI/KJAC/KPNA/KRKS ROUTES Stratocumulus with ceilings between 030-060 kft agl are expected through much of the period across the far western valleys including KJAC. If clouds do break some fog formation is possible. Although light snow/flurries can be expected over the far western mountains today, the far western valleys will probably hold off on any steady - SN until after 00Z Thursday. Elsewhere, increasing mid-high level clouds today into the overnight hours with mainly light winds. The Upper Green River Basin could see some snow activity mainly after 08Z Thursday. && .FIRE WEATHER... Winds will gradually decrease tonight but with some gusty wind continuing in the mountains and east slope foothills. Some light snow or flurries will develop again in the far west during the day Wednesday into Wednesday night with a chance of snow in the upslope favored areas east of the divide by Thursday night, mainly the Lander Foothills and southward. The mountains, Cody Foothills and wind corridor from Rock Springs to Casper look breezy to locally windy on Wednesday. && .RIW WATCHES/WARNINGS/ADVISORIES...None. && $$ SHORT TERM...Skrbac LONG TERM...McDonald AVIATION...WM FIRE WEATHER...Skrbac

The Versatility of Coconuts
Although the coconut has been used for centuries (or even longer) in tropical islands, it has seen a recent surge in popularity. They are the latest fad in "exotic" fruits that have been praised for providing endless health benefits, including curing immune function, weight loss, reducing likelihood of heart disease, lowering cholesterol and even preventing cancer.
Coconut Oil's Usage
Coconut oil is extracted from the meat of mature coconuts. Due to its high saturated fat content, it is resistant to becoming rancid and can last up to two years before spoilage.
Most commonly, this viscous liquid is used in cooking and frying foods. It is especially prevalent in South Asian and South East Asian dishes. It is also used in baked goods because of its nutty flavour and slight sweetness. Recipes that call for butter can be substituted with coconut oil due to the similar consistencies. Because of its popularity, jars of these goods can be seen lining up the grocery aisles, particularly in health food stores. The virgin version is particularly popular with vegans as a source of saturated fat[7].
This substance is unique because of its composition of fatty acids, making it highly resistant to oxidation at high heats. In contrast, cooking oils of other plant products, such as olives, change in nature as they are exposed to high heats. Its high oxidization level makes coconut oil a popular choice, as many believe the substance retains its nutrients better than many other types of cooking oils.
Coconut oil can also be applied topically, acting as a moisturizer for dry skin. It has been known to improve the condition and appearance of the scalp and hair.

Nutritional Value
According to the USDA Nutrient Database, the nutritional value of one tablespoon, or 13.6 grams, (a regular dose of oil for cooking and frying) of coconut oil contains 117 calories and 13.6 grams of fat, of which 11.764 grams are saturated fats, 0.789 grams are monounsaturated, and 0.245 grams are polyunsaturated[1]. The composition is composed of 86 per cent saturated fat.
There has been much debate over the healthiness of this rich product. It has been paraded recently as the go-to choice for healthy cooking. However, there is limited scientific evidence of the various benefits of coconut oil. Many of the claims are more based on testimony than on clinical evidence.
However, studies have shown positive health effects from consuming coconut oil. In a study where participants consumed two tablespoons of coconut oil daily for one week, bad cholesterol levels did not rise, but participants' HDL (good) cholesterol increased[6].
The saturated fat in this plant-based product is composed of a unique blend of short and medium chain fatty acids[5]. These acids, unlike long chain fats, do not require breaking down in the digestive tract. Shorter chain fatty acids are absorbed intact and straight to the liver, allowing for quick boosts of energy. The shorter chained fatty acids also appear to increase calorie burning and promote satiety, helping you feel fuller after eating[6].
Coconut Oil Compared To Other Substitutes
Common substitutes for the oil of coconuts include olive, sunflower and butter. Here is the nutritional value of each according to the USDA:
- A tablespoon of olive oil contains 119 calories and 13.5 grams of fat, which is comprised of 1.864 grams of saturated fat, 9.85 grams monounsaturated fat and 1.421 grams polyunsaturated fat[2].
- A tablespoon of sunflower oil contains 120 calories and 13.6 grams of fat, specifically 1.374 grams of saturated fat, 6.174 grams of monounsaturated fat and 5.454 grams of polyunsaturated fat[3].
- A tablespoon of unsalted butter has 102 calories and is comprised of 2.55 grams of water, 0.12 grams of protein and 11.52 grams of fat, of which 7.294 grams are saturated fat, 2.985 grams monounsaturated fat, 0.432 polyunsaturated fat and 31 miligrams of cholesterol[4].
Unsaturated oils can also offer other benefits, such as vitamin E, found in grapeseed, safflower and sunflower oils, and omega-3, in canola and walnut oils. However, coconuts may contain beneficial plant chemicals that are not yet discovered[5].
The Bottom Line
You've heard the good and the bad about coconut oil. The truth is, scientific studies are still being performed and are not conclusive. While there could potentially be negative effects on LDL cholesterol levels, studies have shown the product to be a good source of HDL cholesterol[7]. There may be other benefits from ingesting this plant-based oil, along with being an energy booster and promoting calorie burning in the body.
The important thing is: all foods should be taken in moderation. If you enjoy using coconut oil or eating coconut, treat yourself. A tablespoon or two of coconut oil a day will not harm you.

DSM DESOTECH INC., PLAINTIFF,v.3D SYSTEMS CORPORATION, 3D SYSTEMS, INC., DEFENDANTS.
This case arises out of an eight-count complaint filed by plaintiff DSM Desotech, Inc. ("Desotech") against its competitors 3D Systems Corporation and 3D Systems, Inc. (collectively, "3DS" or "defendants") for violations of federal antitrust law, state antitrust law, state tort law, and federal patent law. Before the court are two motions brought by 3DS. First, 3DS moves to stay discovery on all antitrust and state law claims pending the outcome of its motion to dismiss such claims. Second, 3DS moves to bifurcate the patent liability and patent damages issues of the willful infringement claim filed against it and, additionally, to stay discovery of patent damages until liability has been determined. For the reasons set forth below, defendants' motion to stay discovery on the antitrust claims [#46] will be granted, and defendants' motion to bifurcate trial and stay discovery on the patent claims [#48] will be denied.
3DS is a manufacturer of large-frame stereolithography ("SL") machines. SL is a process by which a physical object, such as a model, is created layer by layer from liquid resin that is solidified into shape with a laser. Desotech is a leader in the SL resin market and the holder of two equipment patents allegedly covering the resin recoating technology used in eight of the SL machines produced and sold by 3DS. In addition to their claim of willful patent infringement (Count VIII), Desotech has alleged anticompetitive behavior on the part of 3DS in violation of sections 1 and 2 of the Sherman Act, section 3 of the Clayton Act, the Illinois Antitrust Act, and the Illinois Uniform Deceptive Trade Practices Act (Counts I--VII). Desotech further alleges that 3DS has tortiously interfered with its prospective economic advantages in violation of Illinois law (Count VII).
3DS has denied liability, raising several affirmative defenses to the patent infringement alleged in Count VIII. Also, in a separate motion, 3DS has moved under Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 12(b)(6) to dismiss all antitrust and state law claims filed against it in Counts I--VII.
In the present two motions, 3DS seeks to alter the ordinary course of discovery on all eight counts by asking the court (1) to stay discovery on the antitrust and state law claims pending the outcome of its motion to dismiss, and (2) to bifurcate the patent claim, yielding separate trials on patent liability and patent damages and, additionally, to stay discovery of patent damages until such time as liability has been determined.
I. Motion to Stay Discovery of Antitrust and State Law Claims
District courts enjoy extremely broad discretion in controlling discovery. Crawford-El v. Britton, 523 U.S. 574, 598, 118 S.Ct. 1584, 140 L.Ed. 2d 759 (1998); Patterson v. Avery Dennison Corp., 281 F.3d 676, 681 (7th Cir. 2002). In accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 26(c), a court may limit the scope of discovery or control its sequence in order to "protect a party or person from annoyance, embarrassment, oppression, or undue burden or expense." Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c)(1); Britton, 523 U.S. at 598.Such a motion will only be granted, however, "for good cause" and after the moving party has certified to the court that it "has in good faith conferred or attempted to confer with the other affected parties in an effort to resolve the dispute." Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c)(1); N.D. Ill. L.R. 37.2.
Accordingly, the mere filing of the motion does not automatically stay discovery. SK Hand Tool Corp. v. Dresser Industries, Inc., 852 F.2d 936, 945 (7th Cir. 1988). Nor does it mean that a court will automatically grant a stay pursuant to Rule 26(c) simply because a defendant asks for one. In re Sulfuric Acid Antitrust Litigation,231 F.R.D. 331, 336 (N.D. III. 2005). Nevertheless, stays are granted with some frequency. Id. Courts may limit discovery in myriad situations, including when a defendant files a motion to dismiss pursuant to Rule 12(b)(6), but in a majority of cases the existence of a dispositive motion is not the sole reason for granting the stay. Syngenta Seeds, Inc. v. BTA Branded, Inc., No. 05 C 6673, 2007 WL 3256848, at *1 (N.D. Ill. Nov. 1, 2007). Stays are often deemed appropriate where the motion to dismiss can resolve a threshold issue such as jurisdiction, standing, or qualified immunity or where, in cases such as this one, discovery may be especially burdensome and costly to the parties. See id. at *1--2; In re Graphics Processing Units Antitrust Litigation, MDL No. 1826, 2007 WL 2127577, at *4 (N.D. Cal. July 24, 2007).
3DS has certified that it was unable to resolve this dispute with Desotech, which has submitted a motion to compel discovery on antitrust issues since the present motion to stay was first filed. The only issue remaining, therefore, is whether 3DS has shown good cause for the stay.*fn1 In its complaint, Desotech has alleged three separate theories of liability on which it might proceed with its federal antitrust claims: illegal tying under section 1 of the Sherman Act and section 3 of the Clayton Act, restraint of trade under section 1 of the Sherman Act, and attempted monopolization under section 2 of the Sherman Act. Desotech has also alleged two state law antitrust claims that may or may not ultimately overlap with the federal antitrust claims.
As the Supreme Court, the Seventh Circuit, and this court have all recognized, discovery in any antitrust case can quickly become enormously expensive and burdensome to defendants. See Bell Atlantic Corp. v. Twombly, - U.S. -, 127 S.Ct. 1955, 1967, 167 L.Ed. 2d 929 (2007) ("[I]t is one thing to be cautious before dismissing an antitrust complaint in advance of discovery, but quite another to forget that proceeding to antitrust discovery can be expensive.") (citations omitted); Lupia v. Stella D'Oro Biscuit Co., 586 F.2d 1163, 1167 (7th Cir. 1978) (acknowledging that "antitrust trials often encompass a great deal of expensive and time consuming discovery"); Asahi Glass Co. v. Pentech Pharm., Inc., 289 F. Supp. 2d 986, 995 (N.D. Ill. 2003) (Posner, J., sitting by designation) (requiring that "some threshold of plausibility . . . be crossed at the outset before a patent antitrust case should be permitted to go into its inevitably costly and protracted discovery phase"). Where, as here, not one, but multiple independent theories of antitrust liability have been presented, the potential burden on defendants will likely be even higher, as the scope of discovery must be further broadened to encompass each type of anticompetitive action alleged.
Recognition by the courts of the hefty costs associated with antitrust discovery is not, as Desotech correctly points out, tantamount to an automatic prohibition on discovery in every antitrust case where defendants challenge the sufficiency of a complaint. Such recognition does, however, suggest that the court should be particularly mindful of the course of discovery it will authorize in antitrust cases.
Here, 3DS is facing potential liability on six separate antitrust claims. The business records 3DS has been asked to produce span a period of at least eight years of activity. See Defs.' Memo in Support of Mot. to Bifurcate (Dkt. No. 50), Ex. A, at 11.*fn2 More importantly, the information 3DS has been asked to disclose includes "every 3D Systems sales contract for four different 3D Systems stereolithography machines; every sales and marketing document for all 3D Systems stereolithography machines; large categories of third-party contracts; technical designs, manufacturing drawings and test results; complex financial records and reports; vast amounts of customer data, including every piece of communication with customers and potential customers," as well as other internal communications-information that, in addition to being extensive, voluminous, and expensive to produce, is also highly sensitive subject matter to turn over to one's competitor.*fn3 Defs.' Memo. in Support of Mot. to Stay Certain Discovery (Dkt No. 47), at 5.
Absent circumstances presenting a compelling need for prompt discovery-as there might be if, for example, provisional relief were being sought or if testimony needed to be preserved due to the ill health of a witness-the court finds that the principles underlying Twombly counsel in favor of granting defendants' motion to stay. See, e.g., In re Graphics Processing Units Antitrust Litigation, 2007 WL 2127577, at *4--5 ("To be sure, to allow antitrust discovery prior to sustaining a complaint would defeat one of the rationales of Twombly, at least when the discovery would be burdensome."). Defendants' motion to temporarily stay certain discovery pending the outcome of their motion to dismiss is therefore granted.*fn4
II. Motion to Bifurcate Patent Claim and to Stay Discovery of Patent Damages
Rule 42(b) of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure states that a court may order a separate trial of any claim or issue "[f]or convenience, to avoid prejudice, or to expedite and economize." Fed. R. Civ. P. 42(b). The decision to bifurcate pursuant to Rule 42(b) is made on a case-by-case basis and is committed to the discretion of the district court. Real v. Bunn-OMatic Corp., 195 F.R.D. 618, 619 (N.D. Ill. 2000); see also McLaughlin v. State Farm Mut. Auto. Ins. Co, 30 F.3d 861, 870 (7th Cir. 1994). The court, however, must be mindful of the factfinder's traditional role, which ordinarily is to make a determination on the basis of the case presented in its entirety. Real, 195 F.R.D. at 620. Consequently, bifurcation in patent cases, as in others, is the exception, not the rule. Id.; Trading Techs. Int'l v. eSpeed, Inc., 431 F. Supp. 2d. 834, 836, 840 (N.D. Ill. 2006). Separate trials should not be ordered "unless such a disposition is clearly necessary." Real, 195 F.R.D. at 619 (internal quotation marks and citations omitted).
In those cases in which motions to bifurcate have been granted, the facts and circumstances were such that bifurcation lent itself to judicial economy while not unduly prejudicing any party. William Reber, LLC v. Sony Ericsson Mobile, No. 03 CV 4174, 2004 WL 2535074, at *2 (N.D. Ill. Sept. 27, 2004) (hereinafter "Reber II"). Such circumstances include but are not limited to "a) a need for voluminous documents to resolve damage issues; b) complex infringement issues; c) multiple patents, infringing products, claims, counterclaims or parties; or d) the probability that the defendant would prevail on the infringement issue, thereby eliminating the need to address the issue of damages." Id.; Real, 195 F.R.D. at 621. The party seeking bifurcation bears the burden of demonstrating that judicial economy would be served and that no party would be prejudiced by separate trials. William Reber, LLC v. Samsung Elecs. Am., Inc., 220 F.R.D. 533, 536 (N.D. Ill. 2004) (hereinafter "Reber I") (citing Novopharm Ltd. v. Torpharm, Inc., 181 F.R.D. 308, 310 (E.D.N.C. 1998)).
Desotech has asserted willful patent infringement of two of its U.S. Patents, Numbers 6,340,297 ("the '297 Patent") and 6,733,267 ("the '267 Patent"). Both patents are directed to a component of the SL machine called the "recoater," which adds and shapes a new layer of liquid resin to the object being created. Patent '297 has 12 patent claims and Patent '267 has 29 patent claims. According to 3DS, eight of its machines are implicated by the technology documented in these patents, and each might be at issue in the current litigation. As a result of the large number of potential claims involved, 3DS argues that this case will require hundreds of gigabytes of documents to prove financial damages and will involve many complicated questions of technology to be decided by the jury.
3DS has filed the current motion in an attempt to simplify the complicated nature of this case. First, 3DS asks the court to bifurcate the patent claim into two portions: (1) liability and (2) willfulness of infringement and damages. 3DS argues that bifurcation is required because of (a) the need for voluminous documents to resolve the damages issues; (b) the complexity of the infringement issues, (c) the need to avoid the risk of prejudice to the defendants due to the inadvertent disclosure of sensitive financial information, and (d) bifurcation will promote judicial economy. Second, 3DS asks the court to stay discovery of the damages potion until such time as liability has been assessed-or, in other words, only upon Desotech's success at the first trial. 3DS asserts that there is little overlap between patent liability and damages in this case-particularly if, as it urges, the issue of willfulness is tried with the damages portion of the bifurcation. Consequently, 3DS contends, proceeding in this fashion will assure substantial savings of judicial time and litigant resources. For the reasons discussed below, the court does not find 3DS's arguments to be persuasive.
A. Voluminous Documentation
3DS claims that the documents it has been asked to produce and the interrogatories it has been asked to answer in response to Desotech's discovery of patent damages will require sifting though hundreds of gigabytes of emails and documents. Desotech, on the other hand, has stated that it seeks to use a "reasonable royalty" calculation for the measure of its patent damages and that the most "basic financial information" will suffice in this regard. Pl.'s Memo in Opp. to Bifurcation at 1.
The gap between the parties' positions on this issue appears to stem from the seven antitrust and tort claims that are also pending in this case. Desotech acknowledges that it has sought information pertaining to 3DS's financial forecasts, market share information, and customer/supply agreements-requests that will undoubtedly require a large quantity of data to adequately answer. Desotech asserts, however, that such requests are meant to prove both patent damages and antitrust liability. Such evidence is, of course, often central to antitrust litigation. The likelihood of some degree of overlap in evidence regarding, on the one hand, antitrust liability (should those claims survive the pending motion to dismiss) and, on the other hand, patent damages, thus discourages the court from bifurcating the patent damages portion of this case.
Furthermore, other than requests for financial information, which may be considered ancillary to the issue, the court finds little indication that the damages aspects of plaintiff's patent claims will require any greater volume of documents than in a typical patent case that can be resolved in a single trial. See Real, 195 F.R.D. at 622--23 (holding bifurcation inappropriate despite the plaintiff's seeking to prove both reasonable royalties and lost profits as measures of damages).
B. Complexity and Multiplicity
As for the complexity of the case, it too appears to be no more intricate than a typical patent case. In Reber II, the court vacated a bifurcation order it had previously granted because the case had become significantly less complex than it had once been. 2004 WL 2535074, at *2. The original motion to bifurcate was granted when the claim was against six co-competitor defendants, discovery involved thousands of documents written in various languages other than English, witnesses spoke languages other than English, and many of the documents and witnesses needed to determine damages were located outside of the United States. Reber I, 220 F.R.D. at 535. Due to these extraordinary circumstances, bifurcation of damages served the interests of judicial economy, efficiency, and simplicity without unduly prejudicing the plaintiff's right to a jury trial. See id. As discovery progressed on the liability portion of the patent claim, however, the plaintiff settled with all but one defendant. Reber II, 2004 WL 2535074, at *1. Despite the fact that two patents, six claims, and fifteen of the defendant's products remained at issue, the court held that the extenuating circumstances justifying the original bifurcation no longer existed. Id. at *3.
Clearly, the circumstances presented by this case do not amount to the global, multi-party litigation presented by Reber I. While there may be more potential claims at issue in the present case than there were in the streamlined Reber II, the mechanical engineering technology at issue here-involving the "recoater"-appears to be more digestible to the lay juror than does computer or electrical technology. Moreover, although eight of 3DS's products may be implicated by patents '297 and '267, there is little indication that differences between recoating components in each of the particular product will introduce significantly more complexity to the case. Rather, once the initial technology has been explained and understood by the jury, the damages allegedly suffered by Desotech from each newer model should be only marginally more difficult to prove or understand than the first.
C. Avoiding Prejudice
In Reber I, before granting the bifurcation order, the court "strongly considered" the potential "detrimental effects" that inadvertent disclosure of sensitive financial information could have on the defendants. Reber II, 2004 WL 2535074, at *3. Because each of the six defendants was in direct competition with one another, the potential detrimental effects of such disclosure outweighed any prejudice to the plaintiff. Id. In the present case, however, the two defendants are parent and subsidiary, and can hardly be said to be in direct competition with each other. While Desotech and 3DS do compete in the SL resin market, Desotech does not manufacture SL machines that compete with the machines at issue in this litigation. Moreover, patent issues often arise between two direct competitors; such a situation is generally handled by two-tiered protective orders of the type already being negotiated by the parties in this case. Although some sensitive information may inevitably be conveyed during trial, that is the nature of patent litigation.
D. Expedition and Economy
The final argument offered by 3DS in support of its motion is that it will save resources for both the court and the litigants, because the issues of patent liability and patent damages do not overlap. As an empirical matter, the court has regularly rejected this type of claim. It is precisely because the issues of willfulness, liability and damages generally overlap that bifurcation remains the exception in patent cases, rather than the rule. See Trading Techs., 431 F. Supp. 2d at 841 (noting that "courts in this district have repeatedly held that bifurcation . . . was inappropriate because issues of liability and willfulness/damages do overlap"). The issue of willfulness in particular has been identified as a factor arguing against bifurcation because it is assessed according to the totality of the circumstances. See id. (recognizing that "where issues to be presented in the two trials sufficiently overlap, bifurcation should be denied" and noting that "evidence of liability and willfulness will likely overlap"); Real, 195 F.R.D. at 625--26.
Because bifurcating this trial would prejudice Desotech by requiring it to duplicate its efforts and because 3DS has failed to show that such prejudice would be outweighed by other considerations, the court concludes that bifurcation is inappropriate in this case. Defendants' motion to bifurcate the patent infringement trial and to stay the discovery related thereto [#48] is therefore denied.
Defendants' motion to stay discovery regarding the antitrust and state law claims pending the court's ruling on the motion to dismiss [#46] is granted, and defendants' motion to bifurcate and stay certain discovery relating to the patent claims [#48] is denied. In order to avoid unnecessary discovery disputes relating to sensitive financial and customer data, however, the court does hereby enter a temporary stay on the discovery of information relating to patent damages pending the outcome of 3DS's motion to dismiss the antitrust and state law claims. Once the antitrust claims in this case are determined, the appropriate scope of discovery on all claims should be better defined, thus lessening the likelihood of subsequent discovery disputes.

More Information
Polica began as a collaboration between fellow Gayngs' members Channy Leaneagh and Ryan Olson in June of 2011. By July they had completed 11 songs, made the key additions of drummers Ben Ivascu and Drew Christopherson, bass player Chris Bierdan, and headed into the studio. After Mike Noyce (Bon Iver) lent his voice on Lay Your Cards Out and Wandering Star, the record was brought to Austin, TX to be mixed with Jim Eno (Spoon). In a few days, the LP was completed and the band Poliça was formed. On stage, the original beats composed by Olson play amongst Channy's passionate vocals & an intense rhythm section, that lead to a description somewhere in the area of electro-r&b goth-pop.
Marijuana Deathsquads is the ever-evolving, experimental project lead by Ryan Olson, (producer/writer of Polica and Gayngs), Isaac Gale, and Stefon Alexander (P.O.S). With multiple drummers, a slew of electronic instruments, and highly effected vocals, their live shows are a violent onslaught of improvised yet tightly woven, jagged, intricate experimental sound.

STAMFORD - Emergency crews were out in Stamford Sunday morning after a truck smashed into a pole.
It happened around 7:45 a.m. on High Ridge Road.
Video from the scene shows that another pole and some power lines fell into the road.
One person was seen being taken away in handcuffs by police. It's unclear if that person could face any charges.
The cause of the crash is not yet known.

We stayed here 02/27/09 - 03/01/09.
The Good:
Room was very nice. Flat screen TV, nice furniture and the beds were very comfortable. The breakfast was good and was a more than a continental breakfast.
The Not So Good: My daughter was asleep and I was watching some TV around 1130pm(about 2 hours after check-in). We heard a key card go into the door and someone walked in! The lady was just as surprised as we were. It turns out the guy working the night shift decided to double book our room. I went to the front desk to request new keys. The (not-so-friendly)clerk said "don't worry, you're fine, I straightened it all out." I still asked for a new set and he refused. I went back to the room and guess what, the keys did not work. So I had to go back downstairs and get new keys. After that everything was good.
Outside of the lady walking in, I would definitely stay here again. Let's just hope they have a new person working the front desk at night.
One last thing, this hotel is a La Quinta now. I guess they changed names two days before we arrived.

Reviewed by Uncle Creepy
Starring Cliff Curtis, Chipo Chung, Cillian Murphy, Michelle Yeoh, Hiroyuki Sanada
Directed by Danny Boyle
Distributed by Fox Home Entertainment
"Sunshine … sweet love my labor
Don't mind … I don't care no more"
What? Oh yeah, movie review. Sorry I was having an Alice in Chains moment. We miss ya, Layne!
There's no doubt Danny Boyle is a tremendous filmmaker. His work speaks for itself having released some sure to be classic films like 28 Days Later. I really dug that flick, but I'm still not entirely sure that I liked it on its own merits or the merits of the films it emulated, like Romero's Dead trilogy. Either way there's a fine line between imitation and inspiration and Danny definitely put his own stamp on that project. Now along comes his latest effort, Sunshine, and I must admit, I have that all too familiar taste in my mouth yet again.
Don't get me wrong. Sunshine is an amazing film. It's beautiful, frightening, and delivers everything you could want from a movie experience. But wow does it remind me of Paul W.S. Anderson's Event Horizon. There's no question Boyle's film is way superior to Anderson's on every conceivable level, but the similarities are uncanny.
In Event Horizon while on a mission a space rescue team comes across a haunted ship that disappeared several years ago. They are warned not to board it via a spooky distress message left behind on the ship but choose to ignore it. As a result one of the crew ends up horribly scarred and begins slaughtering the rest while proclaiming he is some form of god.
In Sunshine a space team on a mission to re-ignite the Sun are sidetracked when they come across the first ship that embarked on their mission that had failed and disappeared several years ago. Upon boarding the abandoned ship they are warned to leave via a spooky distress video. Guess what? They choose to ignore it and end up being slaughtered by a horribly scarred madman who proclaims he is doing it in the name of god.
Sure there's a bit more to Sunshine, like why it was important that they board the other missing ship, and oh yeah, that whole pesky Sun going out business, but do you get where I'm going?
All that aside, Sunshine's biggest flaw lies in the instance that as soon as the character of said horribly scarred madman is introduced, the movie shifts focus and tone. It feels all of a sudden uneven. As if someone just completely changed gears on you. Gone is the epic sci-fi story, and in its place we're left with your basic slasher fodder. Then there's the surrealistic ending that I will not give away in the interest of spoilers. Ugh! What happened, man? Everything was chugging along so very well! If the last act of the film ends up flying with you, then you'll probably end up loving this movie. If not you'll be left, much like me, not terribly disappointed but scratching your head. Either way, shortcomings aside, Sunshine is an amazing film that should become required viewing for any sci-fi or horror fan.
The supplemental material doesn't disappoint either. For a single-disc release this package is whopping! Things kick off with two commentaries. The first with director Danny Boyle is exactly what you'd expect: lively, informative, and an interesting listen. The second with Dr. Brian Cox from the University of Manchester, who served as Sunshine's scientific consultant, is a different story altogether. It's not that it's dull or boring, it's just that it ends up feeling more like a college lecture than it does a film commentary. Still, Cox offers up some unique insight, and this is worth a skimmed sit through with your finger held snug against the fast forward button. Next up we're served seven deleted scenes that clock in at about twenty minutes with optional commentary by Boyle only. Not much to see here honestly, but the more conversational alternate ending is very much worth a look. From there we get twenty-three short web-based video production diaries that cover just about anything you'd ever want to know about Sunshine over the course of about an hour. Finally things are capped off with two short films that are both introduced by Boyle. The first, Dad's Dead, is a brief seven-minute mixture of live action and animation by Chris Shepherd and is a blast to watch! What this has to do with the film at hand is anyone's guess, but Boyle liked it so it's on the DVD. Next up is what could only be described as something that seems like a college film project by Dan Arnold entitled Mole Hills. This was a true "WTF?" moment for me. If watching the life span of several piles of dirt on a city street is your thing, man, you are in luck!
And there you have it, folks! Another new DVD that's worthy of a spot in your home video library that's artsy enough to please your film snob friends while remaining visceral enough to keep even the most jaded of horror fans glued to the screen. Simply put, Sunshine delivers.
