rename the Bin directory (may need to wait for the processes inside to finish talking to it)
visit page in question (will result in an error, just ignore)
rename Bin directory back to Bin
visit page in question again

Ta da!. =)

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Saturday afternoon I seriously sprained my ankle. Thought it was broken (made a crunching/popping sound) at first and it was basically the single most painful thing I can remember. =) Iced and elevated it for the rest of the day/night, then went to doctor Sunday morning, walking with the help of a big walking stick I happened to have. X-ray showed nothing broken. Got easier to get around during the day, but at night it had swollen alot more and was brusing. Got an Ace bandage on it and by morning the swelling had gone down from a softball to a tennis ball, but the old swelling had just moved into the top of my foot. Doh! Hard to move today so I&#8217;m home from work. Probably make it in tomorrow.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Well, I was afraid this was going to suck. This guy gushes and gushes  <br />
about it:</p>

<p>Wall-E<br />
STUDIO: Disney<br />
RELEASE DATE: June 27, 2008<br />
STARRING: Ben Burtt, Elissa Knight, Jeff Garlin, Fred Willard, John  <br />
Ratzenberger, Kathy Najimy, and Sigourney Weaver<br />
WRITTEN BY: Andrew Stanton<br />
DIRECTED BY: Andrew Stanton<br />
GENRE: Animation<br />
RATING: G</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s get the insane, over-the-top hyperbole out of the way early - I  <br />
love Wall-E. I adore the character and the film that tells his story.  <br />
Over the course of our lives there are a few times when you leave a  <br />
theater with the absolute, unshakable confidence that you will not  <br />
only see the movie you just watched again but repeatedly and until  <br />
the day you die. It&#8217;s the way we all felt upon leaving Star Wars, Toy  <br />
Story, Finding Nemo, etc. There are movies that simply become a part  <br />
of your life. Wall-E is a movie like that for me. I have absolutely  <br />
no doubt in my mind that I will revisit Wall-E, EVE, and The Axiom  <br />
for the (hopefully) decades I have left on this planet. The  <br />
storytelling is brilliant enough that I&#8217;ll probably get something  <br />
different out of it every time but the primary reaction that I have  <br />
to Wall-E will be the same when I&#8217;m 50, 75, or 100 - pure joy. Wall-E  <br />
is not only the best movie of the year by galaxy-sized leaps and  <br />
bounds, it&#8217;s one of my favorite movies in a long, long time.</p>
<p>[deleted]</p>
<p>&#8230; And there&#8217;s much more to it than that. A love story, an action  <br />
movie, a cautionary tale, a visual stunner - Wall-E is all of these  <br />
things and still just a damn good time.</p>
<p>Ambitious enough for ya? While other studios are shooting animated  <br />
fish in a barrel by keeping things simple, writer/director Andrew  <br />
Stanton has made the most ambitious film of the year. It&#8217;s a science  <br />
fiction film with a lead character who doesn&#8217;t speak at all. But Wall- <br />
E is just proof that the old line that &#8220;The larger the risk, the  <br />
larger the reward&#8221; couldn&#8217;t be more true. And I haven&#8217;t even touched  <br />
on the fact that Wall-E couldn&#8217;t be a more beautiful film to look at.  <br />
This is as large a leap forward in filmmaking as when we first saw  <br />
Woody and Buzz in Toy Story. Wall-E has an Oscar-worthy screenplay  <br />
but is so stunning visually that it would work even it was a  <br />
completely silent film. A Best Cinematography nomination isn&#8217;t out of  <br />
the question.</p>
<p>Honestly, neither is a Best Picture nomination. Wall-E is certainly  <br />
that good. But will audiences embrace it? Will they take a chance on  <br />
a non-speaking robot? God, I hope so. We need more ambition in  <br />
movies. 2008 has been so lacking in it. Who knew that it would take a  <br />
robot to show us just how much we&#8217;ve been missing and just how much  <br />
we deserve filmmakers that are willing to take a chance? Can&#8217;t you  <br />
take a chance too?</p>
