Sundance Film: Pariah
Friday, January 21st, 2011
She may not be a Quentin Tarantino, or a Steven Soderbergh, but director Dee Rees did not disappoint with her first Sundance Film Festival premiere Pariah. Nor was my first impression of Sundance Film Festival disappointed either. Pariah, which began as a short 3 years ago also played at Sundance, and was backed by Dee Rees NYU film professor, Spike Lee. Pariah defined as one that is despised or reject; an outcast opened with a powerful quote by Audre Lorde "Wherever the bird with no feet flew she found trees with no limbs. (more…)

LR/Mogrify Mac easy installer
Installing LR/Mogrify on Mac was easy. Installing ImageMagick on the other hand wasn't. You either had to put the ImageMagick binaries in the root directory of your system drive, or use Macports to install it. After much work and testing Timothy Armes has compiled a version especially for LR/Mogrify and included it in the new 3.50 version of the Plugin (up to V3.61 at the time of writing). This version is actually built in to plugin.
As with previous version of the Plugin, it is available as a Piglet to use with other Export Plugins.
Also with the release of version 3.60, LR/Mogrify now conserves EXIF when changing format. This is thanks to Exiftool, which is now included in the Plugin.

This site complies with the HONcode standard for trustworthy health information: verify here.
Gall bladder cancer is fairly uncommon type of cancer and your chances of recovering from it are good as long as it is caught early. Surgery is the first line of treatment for most gall bladder cancers and this aims to remove all the cancerous tissue with a healthy margin around it to prevent the cancer coming back. Follow up treatments are used to kill any cancerous cells that may have started to escape to other parts of the body.
Unfortunately, there are usually no initial signs and symptoms of gall bladder cancer, which means that it's not often detected until the later stages. If gall bladder cancer has already spread to other sites in the body, follow up treatment may involve tackling secondary cancers, preventing further spread and controlling any symptoms and complications that may arise.
This article on gall bladder cancer treatment is by Kathryn Senior, a freelance journalist who writes health, medical, biological, and pharmaceutical articles for national and international journals, newsletters and web sites.
There are several identifiable stages of gall bladder cancer; the stage of your cancer at diagnosis will be used as a starting point to make treatment decisions:
Stage 1: The cancer is confined to within the walls of your gall bladder and has not spread
Stage 2: The gall bladder cancer has penetrated the walls of your gall bladder, but has not spread to any other organs or lymph nodes
Stage 3: The cancer has spread to your lymph nodes or has invaded other nearby organs
Stage 4: The gall bladder cancer has invaded deeply into adjacent tissues, or has spread to distant lymph nodes or organs.
If you have been diagnosed with gall bladder cancer, the right treatment for you will depend on:
The stage of your gall bladder cancer
The position and size of the tumour in your gall bladder
Whether the gall bladder cancer has spread to other parts of your body
Your medical history
Your general health
Your personal preferences
If your gall bladder cancer is in an early stage, your doctor may decide to remove your gall bladder completely to give you a good chance of a complete recovery. This operation is called a cholecystectomy and sometimes also involves removing your bile ducts and a portion of your liver. Surgery to remove the gall bladder can have significant side effects and it may take quite a while to recover. In general, the severity of the risks and side effects depend on how much tissue is removed, as well as on your general health before surgery.
This involves taking anti-cancer drugs to destroy cancer cells in your body. Although chemotherapy is not usually effective for the primary gall bladder cancer, it can help to kill cancerous cells elsewhere in your body to delay or stop the spread of the disease. Chemotherapy therefore tends to be used if your gall bladder cancer is more advanced.
Chemotherapy is usually given in cycles of around three to four weeks, with a rest period after each treatment to allow your body time to recover. This is necessary because although chemotherapy drugs attack the gall bladder cancer cells, they also affect other rapidly dividing cells in your body. This cell damage can lead to treatment side effects including:
Hair loss
Mouth sores
Nausea and vomiting
An increased chance of infection
Increased bruising and bleeding
Radiotherapy is also used as a treatment for gall bladder cancer after you have had surgery to remove as much of the tumour as possible. High-energy beams are used to kill any cancer cells that remain while having as little effect as possible on other cells and tissues. There are three main ways in which radiation therapy is given for gall bladder cancer:
External-beam radiation therapy (EBRT): The most common type of radiation therapy, this is when an external machine is used to deliver the radiation to your body.
Internal Radiation therapy: Also known as brachytherapy; small pellets of radioactive material are inserted into the body tissue, near to the site of the original cancer.
Three-dimensional conformal radiation therapy (3D-CRT): This technique uses computers to map the tumour in your body, and then radiation beams are aimed at it from several directions. This type of gall bladder cancer treatment is less likely to damage your body's healthy tissue.
Some gall bladder cancers are so advanced when they are detected that they cannot be treated using surgery. Other people may respond well to treatment, only to have the cancer return at a later date. Treatment in these cases is therefore more about easing symptoms and retaining as much quality of life as possible, rather than concentrating on trying to cure the cancer.
If you have advanced gall bladder cancer that has caused a blockage in your bile duct, your doctor may insert a stent to relieve this and to allow bile to flow freely again. A stent is a hollow metal tube that, when placed inside your bile duct, creates a hollow passage through your bile duct so that the bile can drain away. If you have a stent inserted, it will usually need to be replaced every couple of months so that it doesn't become blocked.
Chemotherapy and radiotherapy can also be used as palliative treatments to reduce the size of the original gall bladder cancer and of any other secondary tumours. This can relieve pain and symptoms.

Who's this? Toby Stephens plays Hamlet, Sian Thomas plays Gertrude, Richard Cordery plays Polonius, Greg Hicks plays the ghost.
This scene is in two parts: Part one is playing - Part two
Context: Act 3 Scene 4 is usually referred to as The Closet Scene since it takes place in Gertrude's private chamber. During the last century it has been popular to imply a sexual tension between Hamlet and Gertrude; for the closet scene to be played in this way there is almost always a large bed dominating the scene. Toby Stephens and Sian Thomas chose NOT to go down this well trodden path. In this production a single chair was used and it was decided Polonius might position Gertrude, stage-managing the eavesdropping much as he had with Ophelia in the nunnery scene.
Sian Thomas and Clive Wood agreed that there would have been a lot of sexual tension between Gertrude and Claudius, but that their relationship was based on lust as opposed to love. From Claudius' perspective it was also based on political expediency; the marriage secured his position as new king. For Sian Thomas, Gertrude's journey to her death begins in this scene with the growing realization that Claudius is not the man she thought he was.

Which deadlift method do you prefer?? The stop and set or the touch and go??
Why or why not?
I personally prefer the stop and set so that i can really focus on form. However with the touch and go you can burn a few more calories.
Stop and set. Touch and go makes it no longer a deadlift as there will inevitably be some momentum transfered over.

Stop and set. Its got to be dead weight on the ground.
Have you seen the deadlifts they do in the crossfit games? (not starting another cf argument) but they do the touch and go with bumper plates lol. The weights bounce up to their knee!
For me it all depends on the rep range. High rep I do touch and go cause I feel I can control the weight but like to push out reps as fast as I can to gain "snap up" power. But when I do touch and go I just barely touch the weight to the ground. On low reps I do stop and go though, to me it's to dangerous to try and pop right back up.
Bigcountry's Getting a little smaller: Epi/Stano Log
Everything has to be right or I won't pull. Hands, feet, tightness, everything. Takes me what seems like forever to do 5 f'ing reps...Originally Posted by MANotaur
Sent from my iPhone using Am.com
As someone always interested in limit strength or hypertrophy with respect to strength progression, I reset each rep. By doing so I always have to work my starting strength, something that's not developed with touch-and-go, and I don't rely on reversal strength as much, an aspect of strength that has no significant, direct role in pushing the deadlift max via deadlifting for reps. I and others have also found no carryover in touch-and-go styled deadlifts, so I don't use them as such. You'll notice progress with any pull variation will always be easier even with rep work if you reset between reps.
One might consider a scenario where you do a heavy set to try to push your strength up followed by a lighter set to increase TUT. I can see the merit in touch-and-go on the lighter set to maintain a sustained TUT; but of course all those reps in the reset-styled pulls also add up for a lot of TUT.

Equipment checklist
29 September 2006
I know this may sound like a boring subject, and I hope I haven't scared too many people away. But the proper equipment makes a world of difference in the safe keeping of the reptile and the reptile handler.
Hooks come in many different weights and sizes and it is vitally important to choose the right one. Longer, heavier snakes require longer, sturdier hooks. When handling smaller species or younger snakes a small, lightweight hook may be used. It is important that the handler is completely comfortable with the weight, length and grip on the handle. Being comfortable with the equipment allows the handler to concentrate on more important things.
Holding containers also come in a variety of shapes and sizes. When cleaning enclosures I like to use plastic bins with air holes (easily made with a soldering iron), as the reptile is easily accessible to the keeper, lids lock shut, the bin lid actually doubles as a shield, and they are easily sterilised between animals.
Bags are also readily used, however sometimes it can be difficult to get some animals into the bag safely, remembering bites can occur through the material of the bag. However, animals in bags do take up a lot less space when being transported on long journeys.When catching wild animals, a hoop bag is a very handy piece of equipment as some animals can be secured inside without even having to touch them, and if handling is required it is usually for a short period of time.
Feeding tongs also come in many shapes and sizes, and again it is important for the handler to feel comfortable, with consideration to strike ranges of different animals and the weight of the food item being offered. There would be no point trying to hold a large food item with a small plastic pair of tweezers - the food item could be dropped at a crucial point in the feed session, resulting in a bite or disturbing the animal, possibly putting it off feeding all together. Again, the less the handler has to worry about, the more he or she can concentrate on more important things.
Many things need to be recorded, even if only a few reptiles are kept, such as feeding, faeces, when a snake is opaque, when it sheds, weights and medications... these are all important things that need recording so if a problem does unfortunately arise, the record card can be viewed easily and the problem hopefully rectified.
Disinfectants are used to sterilise hands, bins, bags, hooks and enclosures stop the spreading of any nasties to other animals in the collection. F10 disinfectant is great for enclosures and holding bins, whilst Hanisize is specially designed for disinfecting hands and arms between handling different animals.
Pressure bandages are a must when handling venomous snakes and large lizards, and should be the most well-maintained piece of equipment, and always easily accessible to all keepers around these types of animals, whether the keepers are handling them or not.
There are many other pieces of equipment that are also important, such as lubricant and probes for sex determination, holding tubes for vet checks, heat lights, UV lights, heat matts, thermostats just to name a few and when all of this equipment is kept in good working order, handling becomes safer for us and the animal being handled.

It seems like only yesterday that I wrote a column on clichés, those timeworn expressions that set my teeth on edge. Strange as it may seem, my essay struck a responsive chord among more than a few of you. It never ceases to amaze me in this day and age that people still give a hoot about the written word.
A few among you missed the point. It pains me to admit that my core belief - avoiding clichés - went over your heads and rolled all the way to the center-field wall.

Upon arriving at their gorgeous Victorian home retreat, one member of the group discovers a bizarre game hidden beneath the basement stairwell. Before long the group is gathered around the table, eager to learn the rules and have some fun.

An epic-Western in the grand tradition, the made-for-cable The Trail to Hope Rose stars Lou Diamond Phillips as Keenan Deerfield, a half-Indian outlaw just released from prison. Determined to start life anew, Keenan takes a grueling rock-mining job in a town controlled by the odious Driggers family, headed by flint-eyed patriarch Samuel Drigger (Warren Stevens), with the coldblooded Gerald Rutledge (Richard Tyson) as the family's chief henchman. Keenan's fellow workers are treated like slaves and forced to live in squalor, but none dare complain lest they meet with one of the many convient "accidents" that have befallen anyone who dares stand up to the Driggers. With stoic fortitude, Keenan waits for the right moment to strike a blow for justice, benefiting from the moral support of the town's honest but ineffectual Marshal Toll (Lee Majors) and good-natured farmer Eugene Lawson (Ernest Borgnine). The plot thickens when Keenan falls in love with Gerald's "woman," the pregnant Christine Beckford (Marina Black), and when one of Keenan's past associates, A.J. Foster (David Shackelford), rides into town intent upon stealing the Drigger mine's payroll. The rather endearing old-fashioned quality of the film is enhanced by the location-shooting at the Paramount Ranch, a reconstructed western town in Agoura, CA. The Trail to Hope Rose first aired July 4, 2004, on the Hallmark channel. ~ Hal Erickson, Rovi

A quickly forgotten chapter in United States military history is relived in this harrowing war drama from director Ridley Scott, based on a series of Philadelphia Inquirer articles and subsequent book by reporter Mark Bowden. On October 3rd, 1993, an elite team of more than 100 Delta Force soldiers and Army Rangers, part of a larger United Nations peacekeeping force, are dropped into civil war-torn Mogadishu, Somalia, in an effort to kidnap two of local crime lord Mohamed Farah Aidid's top lieutenants. Among the team: Staff Sgt. Matt Eversmann (Josh Hartnett), Ranger Lt. Col. Danny McKnight (Tom Sizemore), the resourceful Delta Sgt. First Class Jeff Sanderson (William Fichtner), and Ranger Spec. Grimes (Ewan McGregor), a desk-bound clerk getting his first taste of live combat. When two of the mission's Black Hawk helicopters are shot down by enemy forces, the Americans -- committed to recovering every man, dead or alive -- stay in the area too long and are quickly surrounded. The ensuing firefight is a merciless 15-hour ordeal and the longest ground battle involving American soldiers since the Vietnam War. In the end, 70 soldiers are injured and 18 are dead, along with hundreds of Somalians. Black Hawk Down was voted one of the top ten films of the year by the National Board of Review prior to its limited Oscar-qualifying release. On the basis of his work in this film, co-star Eric Bana, a relatively unknown Australian actor playing Delta Sgt. First Class "Hoot" Gibson, won the lead in director Ang Lee's version of The Hulk (2003). ~ Karl Williams, Rovi

This big-budget science fiction adventure centers on a final battle between good and evil for control of the world. In the year 3000, Earth is ruled by the Psyclos, a vicious alien race of which Terl (John Travolta) is a member, that has laid waste to the planet, killed the majority of the population, and stripped Earth of its valuable resources. Pockets of resistance remain among the surviving humans; Jonnie "Goodboy" Tyler (Barry Pepper) is one such rebel, living in hiding in the mountains near Boulder, CO. Eventually, Johnny begins organizing like-minded humans for a final stand against the Psyclos. The film is based on the novel by L. Ron Hubbard, the science fiction author also known as the founder of the Church of Scientology; it covers only the first half of the book, saving the remainder for a possible sequel.

At a secret military base in the American desert, Dr. Harlan Jessup (Ron Perlman) is charge of the experimental "Operation Sandman", in which volunteer soldiers are injected with a new serum that will allow them to operate without sleep for days at a time. Led by senior NCO "Gunny" Riggins (Richard Tyson), the volunteers are trained in Virtual Reality scenarios pitting them against computer-generated terrorist. Midway through the three-week experiment, Captain Jean Farrell (Mary B.

Murder, revenge, and sex are at the center of this two-fisted suspense thriller by young writer/director Jeff Santo. The film opens in Cancun, Mexico, with a quintet of shady characters soaking in the sun by the pool. The group's ringleader is Jack (Richard Tyson), a crooked used-car dealer who has a penchant for roughing up children. Others in the group include Freddie (Flea), Jack's thick-skulled sidekick; geeky Art the accountant; Niko, the group's muscle bound meathead; and finally the unassuming Vic. Much of the film focuses around Creed, Vic's club where Jack invested a quarter of a million dollars as a not-so-silent partner. Art is sent by Jack to Creed to check out the books, but the accountant instead ends up in an alley bleeding to death. Vic quickly disposes of the body with a hacksaw and a blowtorch. Meanwhile, Niko and Jack are vying for the attention of Rebecca, a well-endowed floozy, at the same time as Jack's desperate wife looks to exact her own revenge. Scheming and intrigue eventually boils over into a bloody confrontation. ~ Jonathan Crow, Rovi

In the '70s, Roy Munsen (Woody Harrelson) was a bowling phenomenon. He was none too sharp about picking friends, though, and the champion he had to beat, "Big Ern," takes him under his supposedly friendly wing. Big Ern (Bill Murray) shows him the high-living lifestyle, and induces him to go on the road with him, hustling small-town bowlers. A couple of the men he bilks take exception to the scam, and show their displeasure with Roy by mangling his hand. Twenty years later, Roy (who now has a hook in place of his hand), earns his living as a salesman. On a visit to a bowling alley, he cannot help but notice the incredible talents of an Amish boy, Ishmael (Randy Quaid). Bowling is not part of the Amish lifestyle, but Ishmael occasionally sneaks into the bowling alley and plays a frame or two. Roy takes Ishmael under his wing, and together they begin a quest for bowling success. This comedy is directed by Peter and Robert Farrelly, who also directed Dumb and Dumber. Like those comedies, it contains a lot of gross-out jokes and bathroom humor. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide

This fascinating historical drama, set in 1862 during the Civil War, chronicles the coming of age of a young Kentucky farm boy. The story begins in Meshack Creek, KY, a tense town where loyalties were sharply divided. Sarah Anders and her son were living there on an isolated farm while her husband was off fighting with the Confederates. They are one day jeopardized by the sudden arrival of Union-Army captain John Hull Abston and his ragged regiment. While they stay, Sarah and the captain begin a begrudging friendship based on mutual respect. Both of them have lost loved ones in the conflict, and the two are emotionally vulnerable. When one of the soldiers is seriously wounded during an accident, the regiment is forced to remain longer on the little farm. Conflict ensues between the captain and his men, when they keep stealing livestock from impoverished enemy farmers. Meanwhile the narrator, then a boy, is forced to use his gun against another human. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

Last month marked the 19th anniversary of the launch of the Hubble Space Telescope, an orbiting observatory that has become a household name and a linchpin of astronomical science. The telescope has proved remarkably resilient, enduring numerous glitches over the years—from a flawed primary mirror at deployment to a serious electronic failure this past September. Each time, Hubble has held on until astronauts arrived to perform repairs, an operation that is about to take place for the final time by a shuttle crew.
On Monday space shuttle Atlantis is slated to lift off on the fifth and final servicing mission to Hubble (confusingly dubbed Servicing Mission 4—the nominal third mission was split into two parts, Missions 3A and 3B). Four mission specialists alternating in two-astronaut teams will attempt a total of five spacewalks from Atlantis to replace broken components, add new science instruments, and swap out the telescope's six 125-pound (57-kilogram) batteries, original parts that have powered Hubble's night-side operations for nearly two decades.
To find out what a refurbished Hubble will be capable of and how long the telescope will operate without further service, we spoke to astrophysicist David Leckrone, senior project scientist for the Hubble Space Telescope at the NASA Goddard Space Flight Center in Greenbelt, Md.
[An edited transcript of the conversation follows.]
From the Hubble team's perspective, what are the goals for this shuttle mission?
This is our final opportunity to service and upgrade Hubble. So we're replacing some items that are getting long in the tooth to give Hubble longevity, and then we'll try to take advantage of that five- to 10-year extra lifetime with the most powerful instrumental tools we've ever had on board.
We have to do maintenance on the spacecraft itself, like replacing the batteries. There are six batteries that were launched in 1990 and have never been replaced—I bet you couldn't do that with your flashlight. And we have gyroscopes that help keep Hubble pointing stably so it doesn't jitter and smear out our very high-resolution imagery. These things have known average lifetimes and wear-out mechanisms, so it's time to replace all six gyroscopes. We have to replace another sensor called a fine guidance sensor that is used both to help control the pointing of the telescope in the sky and also for the science of astrometry, which is very precisely measuring the positions of stars.
It's been seven years since we've serviced Hubble, and the normal servicing interval is three and a half years or so. It's as if you're supposed to service your car at 5,000 miles, but it's been 10,000 miles and things are starting to break down—particularly within our suite of scientific instruments.
In 2002, after the last time we serviced Hubble, we had 11 different channels operating among the six scientific instruments. A channel is like an individual camera within a box; for example, we put a new instrument on board in 2002, the Advanced Camera for Surveys, that has three separate cameras in it, each with unique capabilities, and each of these cameras we call a channel. So we had 11 channels active after the last servicing mission; we're now down to three. And among those three channels, only one was really heavily used prior to recent times. So there has been significant deterioration in the tools that we use for observing the sky.
After this mission is over, if everything goes perfectly—and this is an extraordinarily complex and ambitious mission, so nobody should be surprised if we don't get absolutely everything done—we should be up to 14 channels with the very highest technology that we've ever flown on Hubble. It will be more powerful as a scientific tool than it's ever been before.

Designing a Unique Holiday Gift – 2nd Annual Adopt-A-Family
Our second annual Miles Design adopt-a-family was a success, and we are so thankful for the opportunity to participate again this year. We learned quite a bit about the process and strategy from our experiences last year, and this year went off without a hitch–it was truly a team effort from start to finish.
This year, we adopted a family of five. Besides mom, there were two girls (one and fifteen) and two boys (nine and seventeen). After talking with them, we learned that they lost their home to a fire last year at Christmas, and they've been working to rebuild their lives over the last year. Their lists had everything from pots and pans, dinnerware, and clothing to a basketball, games, and movie passes.
With lists in hand, the entire team took over Walmart on Friday morning, Dec. 4–dividing and conquering. Josh, Eric, Brian, and Cookie shopped for the boys' gifts and toys while April, Lauren, Meg, and I worked on the household items and girls' gifts. It was a great time, and I was impressed with our efficiency–although I'm positive we could have spent all morning putting together cute outfits and shopping for toys! When it was all said and done, we managed to get everything on our list in one stop, and we came out on budget!
Here are some photos from our shopping adventure:
The afternoon of Dec. 10th was dedicated to wrapping all of the gifts (and Eric's cell phone). The finished stack of presents was an awesome sight and took up most of the conference room table–very impressive!
Now, what to do with all that leftover paper? Any ideas? Hmm…
The entire office made the trip to deliver the gifts, and the family was very kind (and probably overwhelmed) as we all piled in their living room! It was such a rewarding experience to participate in this program during the holidays. It can be such an overwhelming season, and it feels really good knowing that we were able to ease the burden of providing for a family of five at Christmas. And, most importantly, we worked together and had fun doing it!

A mystical Wisconsin creature is making his way onto the small screen. Rhinelander's famous mascot, the Hodag, will star in an episode of Scooby Doo.
The Hodag plays a villain who steals jewelry from the people of Crystal Cove, in an episode titled "Horror of the Hodag". It's set to air Friday, August 3 at 1 p.m. on the Cartoon Network.
The Executive Director of the Rhinelander Area Chamber of Commerce says it's exciting to see and says it's positive thing for the community. Lara Reed says, "I think it's a great opportunity for us to get a little bit of PR for people to think maybe we could see that Hodag thing. Is it real? Let's Google it and oh my gosh it's in Rhinelander maybe we should go there for our next vacation."

I have not written about my personal life for a while. It was never the intention of this site. This site was to write about philosophy, about society, about humans, about nature, and about what we as as a race are doing right, and doing wrong. I never wanted it to be along the lines of "today it is Tuesday and this is how I fell. And wow, that was a good cup of coffee I just had".
With the passing of Mel, it was such an extreme event that it dominated my experience. I couldn't not write about it. The writing also helped me, was part of the process, and helped many others too. Now I can look back at it as a deep and moving experience and relationship, and know that it was part of my life and its cycles.
Now, I am deep into the next cycle. Again blessed enough to be a husband to a wonderful woman, Vanessa. Further double blessed with the gorgeous twins, Tayla and Anabelle. I could never have seen any of this coming. While I saw myself as recovered, I would have accepted leading a barren life as the outcome. To find instead a fountain of love and caring and beauty, is I suppose a miracle. Even if you want to keep your heart closed, it is impossible when two little offspring of yours are smiling up at you. Together in being launched into a new life and relationship with the amazing Vanessa, my hands and heart are full.
So over time this series of articles will revert again to being a forum for free thought about a range of topics. Yet I felt it was important to bring closure to the personal series that took place, for people to know that from that terribly dark and low place, the cycle of Life has turned and I am again in the most fortunate of positions.
That my friends, is the nature of life. The only fact we know for sure about any object or phenonemon, is that it will disappear. Sooner or later. Yet we can relax and trust in God and the Universe, as literally our every need will be provided for.

It's still working from Beloit to Superior
When Gov. Scott Walker and legislators enacted budget reforms aimed at eliminating a $3.6 billion deficit and improving the state's long-term financial health, opponents cried foul, promising falling skies and the end of life in the Badger State as we all knew it.By: By Brett Healy, Superior Telegram
When Gov. Scott Walker and legislators enacted budget reforms aimed at eliminating a $3.6 billion deficit and improving the state's long-term financial health, opponents cried foul, promising falling skies and the end of life in the Badger State as we all knew it.
Fast-forward almost two years and not only is the sky right where it should be, but Wisconsin's fiscal house is on solid ground for the first time in years. Instead of billion-dollar deficits and crushing debt, the state's non-partisan Legislative Fiscal Bureau is projecting a budget surplus for 2013. In addition, the state Department of Administration has announced it will deposit $108.7 million into the state's Rainy Day Fund, and — according to a new MacIver Institute report — taxpayers across Wisconsin have enjoyed more than $2 billion in savings.
The results are a far cry from the near-apocalyptic predictions that rang out from big labor during the height of the anti-Act 10 rallies. Teachers are still teaching, prison guards are still keeping us safe and Wisconsin has avoided the same fiscal cliff that states like Illinois and California haven't.
It is worth noting, however, the more than $2 billion in savings and the financial stability that comes with it is in jeopardy because of just one man.
Dane County Judge Juan Colas has ruled parts of Act 10 unconstitutional, effectively driving a wedge between taxpayers and long-overdue, fiscally responsible policies. By injecting himself into the legislative process, Judge Colas is threatening to undo reforms that have benefitted communities from Beloit to Superior and everywhere in between.
Worse yet, Judge Colas has refused to stay his decision — despite requests from more than half of Wisconsin's 72 counties that he does so until the higher courts can again rule on the constitutionality of Act 10.
Already, unions and organized labor groups are rushing to re-open and negate Act 10 contracts that have benefitted taxpayers. The Madison Common Council held a special session in September to approve new labor contracts following Colas' decision. Other local units of government and school boards are suddenly faced with similar demands from unions across Wisconsin.
Because Judge Colas has decided to play politics with his gavel, teachers, taxpayers and middle-class families are at risk. If Judge Colas' decision stands and local units of government are forced to renegotiate contracts without any additional state funding or revenue from other sources to make up the shortfall, they will have no choice but to lay off government workers or cut vital services our citizens depend on.
As we near the two-year anniversary of protests at the state Capitol, it's still working in Wisconsin. For the sake of all hard-working Wisconsinites, let's hope that — despite the wishes of one activist Dane County judge — it is allowed to keep working in the future.
Brett Healy is president of the John K. MacIver Institute for Public Policy, a Wisconsin-based think tank that promotes free markets, individual freedom, personal responsibility and limited government.

This is a very simple case but effective to keep all those pesky skylanders together. I like the tower one they are selling at Toys R Us better, for like my first string of critters and I'm using this case for my second string team. It's a little flimsy and the inside divider is made with thin cardboard, but it works and it's a place to put them all so they don't end up on the bottom of your feet. It holds a full team of 8 and has a pocket on the top for the stickers and the cards.

Dont waste your money on this product. While it looks nice the inside is made only of cardboard so it won't last long unless you are very careful with it.

Does the job
By Mommy in Montebello
from Montebello, CA
I bought this case for my son who is a huge Skylanders fan. Is this the best case you'll ever own?...of course not however it does the job. We immediately removed the cardboard insert. I saw no need for it. We are able to fit (20) Skylanders without a problem. The case keeps these expensive toys off the floor and safely stored. My son can show off his toys in his Skylanders case and thats all that matters.

High price, low quality
By Angel
from Friendswood, TX
About Me Frequent Player
This is highly priced for nothing much. It's just a bag with cardboard sections that is easily for a child to tear up. You're just paying for the design and the name that it's for Skylander. If you can find a plastic case at the fabric store, you're better off. You will only be able to store 9 Skylanders in this case that's way over priced.

Not worth the money
By newt
from Cincinnati, OH
What the product doesn't show you is that the inside is nothing but cardboard. Literally my son thru it out first thing thinking is was garbage and not understanding is that the cardboard was what is supposed to be used to seperate the skylanders. Product should be priced around 9.99 or 12.99

The case made my son happy and that's all that matters. Built similar to the Matchbox cases from the early 1980's so they're not super durable, but hey, that's why they're priced more affordable than the castle case.

Attractive, Cool but Not Very Protective
By Anderson's Mom, Cia
from Dunn, North Carolina, USA
About Me Gaming Novice
Visually it's a brightly colored and very appealing tote, but the inside divider is made of light cardboard and doesn't provide much protection. I reinforced it with clear packing tape or it wouldn't have made it a week with my boys. I also reinforced the bottom of the tote with a piece of hard cardboard that I exacto-knifed into a circle. The center compartment is way too small to hold the round Portal, but it will fit a couple of extra Skylanders so that it will hold 10-12 of them. Great to transport Skylanders to friend's homes!
