Actor Hugh Jackman returning as Tony Awards host for fourth time
Published on Feb 12, 2014 5:52 AM
NEW YORK (REUTERS) - Award-winning actor Hugh Jackman will return to host the 68th annual Tony Awards, which honours the best of Broadway, organisers said on Tuesday.
It will be the fourth time Jackman will emcee the ceremony on Jun 8 from Radio City Music Hall in New York City, where it will be broadcast live on the CBS television network. He hosted the ceremony from 2003-2005 and picked up an Emmy award for his work on the 2004 show.
Jackman, 45, also won a Tony award the same year for his role in The Boy From Oz. The Broadway League and the American Theatre Wing, the presenters of the Tony awards, praised Jackman's versatility and showmanship.
"Hugh is an extraordinary talent and loyal supporter of the Broadway community - whether he is on-stage or in the audience - and we are honoured to have him back as host," Charlotte St Martin, executive director of The Broadway League and Heather Hitchens, executive director of the American Theatre Wing, said in a statement.

New bill intended to curb Jamaica lottery scams
KINGSTON, Jamaica Jamaican officials said Thursday that they are hopeful new legislation will finally result in a stream of convictions and lengthy sentences for fraudsters behind a multimillion-dollar lottery scam that has swindled mostly elderly Americans out of their retirement savings for years.
National Security Minister Peter Bunting told reporters that the law reform act will result in a "vastly accelerated number of successful prosecutions" of swindlers who have made the island a center for cross-border telemarketing fraud.
The bill was recently passed by Jamaica's House of Representatives. It will be taken up Friday by the Senate. Justice Minister Mark Golding said he expects enforcement of the law to begin by the end of this month.
The scam begins with a phone call that informs the target that he has won millions in an international lottery, but he needs to wire a payment to cover taxes. Victims who fall for the trick and send payments then begin getting endless calls seeking more money.
The Jamaican lottery scammers were the focus of a Wednesday hearing by the U.S. Senate Special Committee on Aging, which is co-chaired by Sen. Susan Collins of Maine, just one of the U.S. states where numerous seniors have been cheated out of vast sums of money by aggressive swindlers from the island. Collins blasted Jamaica for not doing more to rein in the problem in recent years.
"I think they are finally taking it seriously, but it has taken a number of years for them to do so and I would like to see them put the effort in this, in stopping this scam, as they put into enticing Americans to come vacation in Jamaica. A lot of money is spent on that," Collins said at the hearing in Washington.
The U.S. is Jamaica's biggest trade partner and source of tourists. But at least 30,000 calls are made into the U.S. from Jamaica attempting to defraud people every day, authorities say.
Authorities have seized bundles of cash, hundreds of computers and more than 120 cars in various operations to dismantle Jamaica's lottery scam rings, Bunting said.
Hundreds of people have been arrested and some have been convicted on lesser offenses. But substantial convictions of Jamaican cheats have been remarkably few, largely due to big gaps in the country's laws.
"We recognized this activity (raids and seizures) was largely disrupting the lotto scam activities but we were not getting the convictions," Bunting said.
To solve this dilemma, the Justice Ministry crafted a bill targeting advanced fee fraud, identity theft and dishonest use of technology for accessing financial accounts. It also prohibits making threats and coercing victims over the phone. Beefed-up penalties could result in 20-year sentences in some cases.
Justice Minister Mark Golding said the People's National Party, which won December 2011 general elections after four years in opposition, had to draw up the new legislation "from scratch" since taking power in January 2012. He said the former Jamaica Labor Party-led government never tried to legislate against lottery scamming.
The Jamaican and U.S. governments set up a task force in 2009 to stop the schemes. But the problem has gotten worse. Complaints in the U.S. have increased dramatically every year and even the most conservative estimates put the yearly take from Jamaican scams at $300 million, up from some $30 million in 2009.

Mother stabs French teacher to death in front of students
Published on Jul 4, 2014 6:26 PM
ALBI (AFP) - A female teacher was stabbed to death Friday in front of her pupils at a primary school in the southern French town of Albi by a student's mother, who was immediately detained.
"This morning, a mother showed up with a knife and stabbed a 34-year-old teacher in front of her students, for reasons that will be determined by the investigation," Albi prosecutor Claude Derens told AFP.
"When I arrived at the scene they were trying to revive her. She was in cardiac arrest in her classroom," he said.
President Francois Hollande immediately sent Education Minister Benoit Hamon to the school to take charge of the government response.

Rat Lung Successfully Regenerated and Transplanted 59
from the what-I-want-is-some-hot-spares dept.
No, actually it does.
It's just that when it happens, it seems completely normal [slashdot.org].
It seems you hear about breakthroughs when the promising research happens. You don't find out about the first company that puts it to work though, unless it's something really huge.
The environment inside a cell is enormously complex, containing millions of proteins, nucleic acid structures, lipids, carbohydrates, etc of many thousands of different types.
Add to this the recent discovery [nytimes.com] that there are over one hundred species of bacteria populating the average healthy lung (over 2,000 microbes per square centimeter), and that people with asthma have different collection of microbes in their lungs than healthy people.
It's not an optical illusion, it just looks like one. -- Phil White

I enjoy practicing real estate because I can help people be successful outside of their career, assist them with their own real estate project, and expand my knowledge about real estate transactions to assist me in my own endeavors.
I find it can make my job easier and more difficult at the same time for clients to educate themselves on legal issues. It is easier because the client understands what I am talking about but more difficult because sometimes the client will get inaccurate information from various sources or they don't understand the information they have read.
Yes, I will review documents prepared by clients; but in most cases, I will want to edit and revise the documents.
I would recommend this sort of thing only in small claims court.
I worked at Bell & Ingrahm from 1980 to 1983 where I was an associate practicing real estate law and litigation. I then worked with Fisher, Kochen, and Ihnot as a partner where I practiced real estate law, medical malpractice and transactional work. I then moved from there to work at Hansen, Robinette, Krider, Ihnot, and Purcell, P.S. as a partner where I practiced real estate law, estate planning, and business transactions.
I have had many years of experience in both transaction work and in litigation, but probably the best experience that contributes to my legal expertise is transacting in real estate myself. I have been able to experience first hand the mistakes and pitfalls one can make in such transactions and therefore can give better legal advice on how to avoid them.
I am experienced and knowledgeable in the area of real estate law, and I have good business acumen.
I am laid back but professional.
I am an avid golfer. I played in college and have continued to do so since that time. I have an active interest in my children and their various activities.

Building the Revell 1950 Oldsmobile - We're Finished! 10/30/12
Posted 15 October 2012 - 03:13 PM
Two views of the first test fitting of the Revell 50 Olds body over the nearly completed interior/chassis etc. We'd recommend using something thin and flat (Bill uses a metal engineer's scale) to help coax the body down over the interior and open things up just enough to allow the chassis to be moved into place.
Once the two-tone paints are thoroughly dry, the rubbing out and polishing can begin. Shown here are just some of the "tools of the trade" we use and recommend. Counter-clockwise: a small bowl of water and a well-used piece of 600 grit wet/dry automotive sand paper; Micro-Gloss white polish; three grades of sand paper, 6K, 8K and 12K; cotton swab, no-oil facial tissue and a piece of soft cotton cloth
Work carefully in sequence (600, 6K, 8K, 12K and then apply the white polish) so as not to take too much material away. Better to rub some more than to go through the paint and have to re-shoot things.
You could mask-off for painting areas to get a matte black finish but this for us was not one of those times. We use Testors Aircraft Interior black applied with a broad brush. Generally this paint levels out well and when thoroughly dry assumes a somewhat matte finish.
Here we carefully brush painted the headliner using Testors Euro Gray to stay with the general shades of gray interior scheme. Once the paint dries we'll move on to installation of dome lights, window glass and sun visors.
Well, like I said, a small update so that everyone knows we're still at it. At this point Bill is nearly done. Me, not so much. But I'm working as hard a sI can to finish soon so we can have the big reveal.
Stay with us, the best is yet to come!
Thank for looking,
Bill and Len

For Lens car he chose a two tone scheme with Tamiya Maroon for the upper color and 1950 Olds Canto Creme for the lower. The creme paint came from Bob's Paint, etc. I hadn't tried his products before so i thought I'd give it a try.
At this point the maroon has been sprayed, dried, and covered before airbrushing the lower color. Bob's paint went on beautifully with little to no issues.
With the paint dried and the masking removed you get a real feel of the two tone effect. Time to set the body aside and get on with the chassis.
To go with the two tone interior I chose contrasting tan-brown colors for the interior. While not prototypically correct, I like it and that's all that matters.
Other than our choice of colors and a bit or detailing the chassis of both cars (street and race) look the same, as they should since in this era "stock cars" really were "stock".
Just like the chassis both cars engines are virtually identical.
The wheels are a tight fit in the tires, so I decided to assemble them first before the whitewall decals went on. I found that assembling the wheel front to the back, then pushing it in from the front and using a dental pick to pull the rear sidewall into place was the easiest method of them assembled. Don't forget to put the axle pin in place when assembling the wheels!
Not the best photo, but you'll get the point. Clockwise from the upper left: Tire before inserting the wheel, wheel and tire together, whitewall decal in place, and finally the trim ring and cap. A center emblem is on the decal sheet.
At this point Lens chassis is complete, waiting on the body to get its foil, lights, and ornaments. Let go back to Bills car.

Here Bill is preparing to tape the clear parts into place in preparation for attaching them permanently. The question is always what type of glue to use. We recommend using ONLY white glue since it won't attack the clear styrene and it cleans up with a moist tissue.
Bill also took note of the headliner which (though it's not seen much once the model is assembled) looks to need a second coat of Euro Gray bottle paint.
At this point, Bill used low-tac painter's tape to temporarily hold the clear parts in place until a fine bead of white glue can be run along the edges of each piece where it touches around each interior window openings.
Here are two views of Bill's 50 Olds body in the process of having the exterior trim treated to an application of BareMetal Chrome foil. Bill says he finds cutting strips to length of BMF close to the width of the surface trim to be foiled to work best for him for this operation.
Note here some of the tools and materials Bill suggests for applying kit decals like the ones seen here on the Revell 50 Olds deck lid and hood. We always recommend using Micro Set (1) first and once the decal is positioned, Micro Sol to insure a clean, smooth and level application. Also, Bill has begun attaching the plated emblems front and rear. We recommend attaching those part with Elmer's glue to avoid damaging smears or smudges that can occur with styrene or super glues.
We suggest that prior to applying any race car markings, the entire body be wiped down with a surface cleaner like Fantastik using a no-lotion facial tissue. This procedure will remove any oil and grim from handling and prepare the surface for virtual trouble free decal placement.
Note here the tools and supplies recommended for applying decals properly. Bill recommends trimming out each of the required decals as close to the edge of the printed image as possible. He used a small amount of filtered water and some folks also suggest a small drop of liquid household detergent in the soaking solution.
Make sure to use reference illustrations from the Revell 50 Olds kit instructions to get the markings positioned correctly. Page 11 shows the No. 87 Bill is building. Please note the direction the car number "speed streaks" are going. Both sides should be pointing to the rear for example.
It can be pretty tough finding accurate references for a race car from over sixty years ago. Thank God for the internet! Searching for BUCK BAKER 1950 NASCAR Oldsmobile brought up the two reference photos shown here of what is surely the restored or cloned version of this iconic stocker.
The end is rapidly approaching! Stay tuned, with any luck at all the final update will be up in just a couple of days. You won't want to miss it!
Thanks for looking,
Bill and Len

Look close though, the color pics of the real car have the "speed streaks" facing forward on the driver's side. I find that curious, clone car or not.

It does look like they put a right side decal on the left side
All of the photos I found did not have the streaks.
The model is sure looking great.

Has anybody had problems with sink marks on the hood where the hood hinges attache underneath? My hood had some really bad ones that had to be filled
Yep, mine had them as well. A little white putty and they were gone but it does seem odd to have them on a new kit, but the entire hood is odd since it totally lacks any underside detail.
Posted 25 October 2012 - 06:13 AM
I really need to get a couple of these but trying to support my so-called local hobby shops but they still have not gotten them in stock yet. Gonna check again today.
Posted 26 October 2012 - 02:52 PM
Posted 26 October 2012 - 03:54 PM
Yeah, seems they all do. That was the first problem I spotted on mine, so I had my brother check his just in case and the same for his. They're slight on ours, though...did you end up with deep ones?

We both started this project with specific cars we wanted to duplicate, so lets see who came closest to their goal.
We'll start with my car. What I wanted to duplicate was this basic color combo but with a different upper color. Here's my inspiration:
And here's my result:
I really like the two tone combination of maroon over creme. As you can see the overall proportions look spot-on, and give you the feeling of looking at a full size car. The engine, as well as the chassis, look period exact and will no doubt be the fuel that powers many other projects.

In many ways Bill chose a tougher road to go, as duplicating a race car can be difficult when there are so many people who may be familiar with the subject and may nit pick over details.
Here's Bills' result:
Here are five views of the finished, out-of-the-box build of the Revell 1950 Oldsmobile as driven by the late Buck Baker during the nineteen-race NASCAR Grand National season. This was the first year of this series using the GN moniker that was in place until the early 70's when it changed to Winston Cup Series.
The finished Buck Baker 87 NASCAR Olds model strikes a handsome pose with the hood propped open here with a short length of plain guitar string. It congers up visions of Buck and the crew in the pits at a dusty, rut and pothole infested dirt short track prepping the racecar for a day of bone-jarring beatin' and bangin'. Like they say…"that's just racin".
Bill Lastovich was a steady hand in product development at Revell for many years. A great friend to Bill and me was lost earlier this year. Bill's passing was actually a great loss to the whole model car building hobby. The new Revell 50 Olds kit was one of Bill's pet projects. He was really looking forward to seeing it in production. When we were asked to provide this internet build/review of this long awaited model car kit, we couldn't help but feel like we were doing this one for Bill. And indeed, we are.
Well, we've finally come to the end of the road on this project. And while it may have been a long time between updates it was certainly not the fault of the kit as it was, as with all of Revells recent releases, an absolute pleasure to build.
And now that we're finished it's time to sit back and watch your 1950 Olds projects as they get posted to the boards and show up at contests. We hope you will enjoy this kit as much as we did.
As always we want to thank Ed Sexton and Roger Harney of Revell. Without them we would not have had this opportunity.
We'd also like to thank the owners of the forums that we post to, without whom we wouldn't have this great space to discuss and display our work.
Finally we'd like to thank all of you that followed along with our build. Your comments and suggestions were very helpful and entertaining.
Thanks to you all, and we'll see you again soon with another exciting build/review!
Take care,
Bill Coulter and Len Carsner

Last week Peter Jackson, the Senior Advisor for Communications at the CFPB, put up a post on the CFPB's blog describing the CFPB's "Paying for College" web tools, which are currently in a beta stage and which are still continuing to evolve. In fact, the CFPB invites consumers and "stakeholders" to continue to comment on the site.
Regrettably, though, the post begins by continuing the CFPB's practice of hammering on the total outstanding student debt, without any effort to put that figure in perspective, either by indicating what the total debt is for the average student following graduation ($26,600 in 2011, according to The Project on Student Debt) or how the average student is handling that debt (in a bad economy, over 73% are current, according to the NY Fed, and according to Moody's, in the second quarter, the default rate on securitized private student loans was only 4.2%).
Instead, we're treated to the now constant refrain as to how the total outstanding student debt is more than the total outstanding credit card debt and more than the total outstanding car loan debt. Frankly, that continues to perplex us. Yes, it's a big number, but as a society, aren't we better served by having consumers investing in their educations rather than buying cars or running up their credit card bills?
What's even more discouraging is that there is an accompanying video that does provide some perspective (it even includes average debt amounts from 2010), but there is nothing in the text of the blog post that would make that clear or that would direct you to the good news in the video, in which CFPB Deputy Director Raj Date acknowledges that over the course of his or her career, a student with a bachelor's degree is still projected to earn over $1 million more than a student with a high school diploma.
Nonetheless, it's certainly true that college is expensive and that consumers should invest wisely and should make good choices. How then, does the site help consumers do that? The CFPB drew some conclusions about how students decide how they will pay for college based on interviews with students and high school guidance counselors (but, oddly, apparently not parents or other family members).
The CFPB then interviewed "financial experts, lenders, policy wonks, and thousands of people" to determine what tools would have helped students make better decisions. They then distilled that information down further, and now provide general guidance on their site on how to choose the right loan, compare financial aid offers, manage money while in college (really, minimize bank account fees), and repay student debt.
We hope the site will continue to evolve and that the information provided will continue to improve. For example, we'd like to see the CFPB disclose, as it did in its Private Student Loan Report, that there are bank lenders that offer fixed rates that compete with Stafford loan rates and we'd like to see the CFPB confirm, as it could do with a little investigation, that there are state agency lenders that offer fixed rates that are better than PLUS loan rates and that may even be better than unsubsidized Stafford loan rates.

The photo, which he posted on Facebook in October with a caption supporting same-sex marriage, received positive comments from hundreds of internet users in the region and was shared by some 1,000 more.
But it also sparked violent reactions in Myanmar, where homosexuality is a crime under Section 377 of its penal code, and where members of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community face a mix of grudging tolerance and outright discrimination.

Good concept
posted 6 years ago
My dog hates having his nails clipped. These did not work at all for him and left the nail feeling sharp. I'm sure they work well on other animals but Cowboy just doesn't care for them at all.
Pros: clips nail well
Cons: hard to judge where quick is

Author(s): Snook, Scott A.
ISBN 10: 0691005060. See all ISBN's
Publisher: Princeton University Press
This is an eTextbook Learn More
On April 14, 1994, two U.S. Air Force F-15 fighters accidentally shot down two U.S. Army Black Hawk Helicopters over Northern Iraq, killing all twenty-six peacekeepers onboard. In response to this disaster the complete array of military and civilian investigative and judicial procedures ran their course. After almost two years of investigation with virtually unlimited resources, no culprit emerged, no bad guy showed himself, no smoking gun was found. This book attempts to make sense of this tragedy--a tragedy that on its surface makes no sense at all.
With almost twenty years in uniform and a Ph.D. in organizational behavior, Lieutenant Colonel Snook writes from a unique perspective. A victim of friendly fire himself, he develops individual, group, organizational, and cross-level accounts of the accident and applies a rigorous analysis based on behavioral science theory to account for critical links in the causal chain of events. By explaining separate pieces of the puzzle, and analyzing each at a different level, the author removes much of the mystery surrounding the shootdown. Based on a grounded theory analysis, Snook offers a dynamic, cross-level mechanism he calls "practical drift"--the slow, steady uncoupling of practice from written procedure--to complete his explanation.
His conclusion is disturbing. This accident happened because, or perhaps in spite of everyone behaving just the way we would expect them to behave, just the way theory would predict. The shootdown was a normal accident in a highly reliable organization.

Jean Grey Archives - Comics Should Be Good! @ Comic Book Resources
She Has No Head! – Jean Grey Sheds Mary Sue Image, Becomes Awesome & Complex!
X-Men Season One. Dennis Hopeless (writer). Jamie McKelvie, Mike Norton (artists). Matthew Wilson (colors). Clayton Cowles (letters). Julian Totino Todesco (cover). Marvel Comics. Hardcover, full color, 136 pages (includes a preview of Uncanny X-Men). $24.99
As someone always on the lookout for strong layered portraits of female characters, I was delighted to find just that in Dennis Hopeless & Jamie McKelvie's X-Men: Season One (terrible title) in the form of their re-imagining of Jean Grey. I have never been a big fan of Jean Grey in any of her incarnations; she was always the definition of a Mary Sue to me. Too nice, too smart, too powerful, too kind, too beautiful (I mean she was a model at one point…gimme a break), too perfect, and everyone too in love with her. I mean, she was that character that when asked "what is your greatest weakness?" would have to be all "Um…my obsession with perfection?"
Sure there were portrayals of her over the years that I liked and stories I found interesting – like any X-Men fan I enjoyed The Phoenix and Dark Phoenix Sagas, and I never hated her or anything extreme, but she was never a character that worked for me as so many others did. Jean Grey never had that moment for me where a character you didn't care for one way or another suddenly became amazing – like for Cyclops it was when he led the nearly helpless Acolytes out of the Australian desert without bitching once in X-Men #44 – I never saw Scott Summers the same after that issue. But all that changes today. Jean Grey and I have finally had that moment, and it was not just one moment but a slight tweak to her in general throughout X-Men: Season One, that has finally made her very compelling to me and dare I say, for the first time, she feels human to me.

The Space
Pelican House is on the Osa Peninsula, one of the last wild places in the world. Ocean views from every room. Private and romantic. Great swimming on a deserted beach. Scarlet macaws and squirrel monkeys are your only neighbors. A nature lover's paradise!
Floor to ceiling louvered doors let in the ocean breeze. Ceiling fans in every room. Full kitchen. Hammocks galore. Our wonderful caretaker will make your stay complete.
This is a perfect place for a honeymoon or a small family vacation. Two private bedrooms with queen beds. We also have two inflatable mattresses and a very comfortable couch. On the best beach in the Osa - Pelican House is great for kids (and great without them!)...
Wake to the calls of howler monkeys. Zip lines are nearby and good surfing just up the coast (waterfalls, too). The Osa is a bird watcher's paradise. Yipes -- what more can we say?! It is incredible!
Some info:
Costa Rica is home to a rich variety of plants and animals. While the country has only about 0.25% of the world's landmass, it contains 5% of the world's biodiversity. Around 25% of the country's land area is in protected national parks and protected areas, the largest percentage of protected areas in the world (developing world average 13%, developed world average 8%). Costa Rica has successfully managed to diminish deforestation from some of the worst rates in the world from (phone number hidden) almost zero by 2005.
Guest Access
Pelican House is on the best swimming beach in the Osa. It is completely undeveloped and you can walk for miles. Ziplines, hiking and boating are close by and easy to arrange.
Interaction with Guests
The house is entirely private (we live off the premises). We have a wonderful caretaker who lives in a separate dwelling on the property.
Getting Around
You can rent a vehicle, take taxis (we're only 8 minutes from the little town of Puerto Jimenez) or catch the colectivo bus that passes by twice a day.

A nice and spacious house that is completely secluded near a lovely beach. In the garden grows among other things, pineapple, mango and lime. Abundant wildlife right outside the house. The housekeeper Raffa and his family were very helpful and considerate. Our daughters played a lot with their daughter, and they had a lovely time together. We highly recomend this place.
My boyfriend and I spent only 3 days at the Pelican house, but enough to say that the house is beautiful and with exceptional view on the sunrise-side of the ocean! Being immersed and sorrounded by nature is peaceful, but it also means you will be isolated from the city and you may hear and have little animals around. Nonetheless, Rafa (the housekeeper living in a separate place but within the property) will be ready to help with any potential inconvenience and beside watching over the place, he will also keep you entertained with his stories about the territory! Very funny and helpful man. Least but not last, Allison is very kind and she will promptly answer to all the questions you may have. Thank-you again! G&O
We spent 4days on Allison's house to end our 2weeks trip in Costa Rica. This was the perfect place for so many things. The house itself, the surrounding nature, the wildlife, the beach. As we had been trekking in the forest and driving around before we were exhausted so really enjoyed the quiet and spent these days contemplating the nature from the best spot : the pelican house.
I hope we will comeback one day and really recommend it !
Pelican house was a fantastic experience, precisely what I was looking for. The jungle is wild and magnificent, the house is serene, and Rafa was a fantastic host. I wish we had been able to stay for longer (other obligations prevented it) but we will hopefully come back soon!
Also, if you speak Spanish Rafa is an awesome guide - he took us out to this really neat waterfall, explained the creatures on the way, and taught us a lot about Costa Rica.
Fantastic location very close to the beach. Rafa (the local contact) was always available, care taking and helpful.
very quiet place,Rafa was so nice,gave us some fisch he took in the afternoon.
sound of nature is present,real holidays
As we assimilated into the pace of Costa Rica, we realized what a treasure Rafa is and how beautiful and modern this home is. The experience was perfect for my two sisters and me. We were taken care of as if we had a guardian angel following us on the beach, in the forest, even into town as we sat outside at the bakery. He pointed out macaws and monkeys in the treetops.
Jim and Allyson have such a gorgeous house and the grounds are magnificent. The plantings afford such welcome privacy and it's as if someone sprinkled hundreds of zinnia seeds over the acre field between the veranda and the sea. Rafa picked a pineapple from the few rows of them and we at it immediately. He showed us how to harvest the fruit from a coconut and made pancakes for us on two mornings. He is a treasure. Wanted to bring him and his family home with us.
From our home base we found a place recommended by Jim and Allyson to reserve a boat for an afternoon of snorkeling and spotted dolphins surrounding us as we floated along. Also we booked a zip-line canopy tour which we enjoyed on my birthday. What a gas, on the seventh line, cruising 55 mph on a 1/3 mile line from 250 up in the canopy to the restaurant on the top of the hill. OMG
This is the place to stay while in Costa Rica. My favorite place to read was in the hammock on the veranda.
Go ahead and rent a four-wheel drive. You'll be so glad you did and it is necessary! There is a small river to cross on the road to the house. On our last night, there was a thunderous rain all night and the next morning we couldn't cross. Rafa took his machete and cut away brush through an acre or more so we could drive another way to the main road. He's amazing.
We so loved the macaws and parrots that flew over the house and the sounds of the howler monkeys that woke us each morning. It is true that this is the last true frontier on earth. I hope it never succumbs to development. Loved it!

About the Host, Allison
Hi! I am a documentary filmmaker ((website hidden)) and Jim is an artist ((website hidden)). We designed and built Pelican House six years ago (Jim was the architect). When we're not in Costa Rica, we live on Cape Cod.
We care deeply about nature and the health of our planet, which is one reason we fell in love with the Osa. It is still wild and untouched -- no big hotels or golf courses! Pelican House is completely off the grid -- even the fridge is powered by the solar panels. The nightly frog chorus provides the music and the fireflies provide the light show. It's a deliciously private and romantic spot, right on the ocean. We're often visited by squirrel monkeys and we awake each morning to the calls of howler monkeys and parrots. Scarlet macaws visit us regularly. It's magical!
We love sharing our home with like-minded people - those who treasure the natural world and want to help protect it. We rent our Osa home for much of the year, but we are open to a swap if you have a place we've been wanting to visit. We love Paris and Tuscany, Thailand and Bali, London, Venice, Rome -- and we love new adventures...!

The present invention relates to an efficient method of automatically and sequentially intravenously administering two separate solutions to a patient by utilizing a Y-type IV set provided with a single drip chamber monitoring station disposed below from a Y-connecting point. Solution from a first container is directed through a first leg, a Y-connecting point and a single drip chamber monitoring station. A portion of this first solution is operative to engage a check valve interposed within a second leg leading from a second solution container to the Y-connecting point. This engagement causes the check valve to close and prohibits flow of solution from said second container to the Y-connecting point. Once the first solution container has emptied, the check valve is deactivated, and solution from the second container can automatically in sequential fashion move to the Y-connecting point. From the Y-connecting point, solution from the second container is directed to and through the single drip chamber monitoring station. By providing the single drip chamber monitoring station below the Y-connecting point, an intermediate pressure head is formed in both the first and second legs between the respective solution containers and the drip chamber monitoring station. This intermediate pressure head formed by the respective solutions tends to drive and force the respective solutions through the drip chamber monitoring station more efficiently.
1. An efficient method of automatically and sequentially intravenously administering two separate solutions to a patient with a Y-type IV set wherein during administration each solution is monitored by a single drip chamber control station disposed downstream from a Y-connecting point, thereby obviating the necessity of altering or changing the IV set and its control devices during the period in which the two solutions are being administered, said method comprising:
(a) elevating a first solution container containing a first solution above a second solution container containing a second solution;
(b) generating and forming a substantial intermediate pressure head between said solution containers and said monitoring station positioned below said Y-connecting point;
(c) said step of forming said substantial intermediate head pressure between said solution containers and said control station including the step of forming an elongated column of solution in first and second legs leading from said first and second solution containers, respectively, to said Y-connecting point;
(d) directing the first solution from the higher elevated first solution container to the first leg leading from said first solution container;
(e) directing a portion of said first solution into operative engagement with a check valve interposed intermediately within the second leg leading from said second solution container to said Y-connecting point so as to effectively close said check valve and to prevent flow of said second solution from said second solution container to said Y-connecting point;
(f) directing flow of said first solution from said Y-connecting point through the flow control station positioned in a delivery leg leading from said Y-connecting point such that the flow of said first solution is not monitored until the same moves downstream from said Y-connecting point;
(g) utilizing the substantial intermediate head pressure formed in said first leg between said first solution container and said control station to drive and force solution passing from said first solution container through said first leg into said control station;
(h) continuing to direct flow from said first solution container through said first leg and to said Y-connecting point and into said delivery leg where said solution passes through said control station formed therein, and continuing such delivery of said first solution until a selected volume of said first solution has been administered;
(i) deactuating said check valve in said second leg branch, and directing a stream of second solution from said second solution container through said second leg to the Y-connecting point;
(j) utilizing the substantial intermediate head pressure formed in said second leg between said second solution container and said control station to drive and force solution passing from said second solution container through said second leg into said control station; and
(k) directing said second solution from said Y-connecting point through said delivery leg and the flow monitoring station therein, wherein the flow of said second solution is monitored subsequently of the Y-connecting point but prior to reaching the patient.
The present invention relates to the intravenous administration of a plurality of solutions to a patient through a single venal entry, and more particularly to a Y-type IV set where flow monitoring and control is provided downstream from the Y-connecting point.
For convenience and efficiency, or for purely medical reasons, it is appropriate to administer plural solutions or fluids intravenously to a patient through a single venal entry. Often the fluids or solutions are referred to as primary and secondary solutions, and this process is commonly known in the industry as intravenously piggy-back administration.
Intravenous piggy-back administration is described, for example, in a brochure entitled "New Concepts In Intermittent IV Therapy", published by Travenol Laboratories, Inc., Deerfield, Ill. Typically such a piggy-back IV set will include two upper Y-legs or branches with each line being communicatively connected to either the primary or secondary solution container. The Y-legs will lead from the solution container to a Y-connector. Communicatively connected at the Y-connector is a delivery line that leads therefrom and which is operative to convey the fluid or solution to the patient. A check valve is normally placed in one of the upper Y-legs or lines, typically in the line leading from the primary solution container. The gravitational head of the secondary fluid in the secondary container acts to close the check valve to prevent flow from the primary container. Such a system will deliver the secondary solution to the patient first, and then after the secondary container has been emptied, flow will automatically start from the primary fluid since the check valve automatically opens once the secondary container has emptied.
To monitor and control the administration of both the primary and secondary solutions, there is typically provided a drip chamber between each solution container and the respective upper Y-leg or line. During administration, a drop count controller, typically of the electric eye type, is placed into operative association with the particular drip chamber in the operative line.
Once the first solution container has emptied, and the second container starts to deliver fluid or solution in the other upper Y-leg or line, a nurse or aide must change the drop count controller to another chamber disposed in the other upper Y-leg or line. This obviously requires time on the part of the nurse or aide and actually requires that the total administration process be closely observed and watched in order that proper flow control can be maintained throughout the entire process.
In addition to the time and effort required of the nurse or aide in supervising and managing the intravenous piggy-back administration, the nurse or aide must be careful that air bubbles do not collect and exist beyond either of the respective drip chambers, which essentially involves the entire IV set.
The present invention entails a Y-type IV set that is designed to automatically and sequentially intravenously administer two separate solutions by directing both solutions through a common flow monitoring station. More particularly, the present invention entails an IV set including two upper Y-lines or legs that join at a Y-connector or connection point from where there is provided a delivery line for delivering the solution to the patient. Provided within the delivery line, downstream from the Y-connection, is a flow monitoring station such as a drip chamber. In a preferred design of the present invention, there is not provided a flow monitoring station or drip chamber in either of the upper Y-lines. Consequently, flow monitoring and/or control is accomplished exclusively below the Y-connector for all fluid solutions being administered. This enables anyone of a plurality of solutions or fluids to be directed from a respective solution container, to the Y-connector and on through the delivery line where the flow is monitored or controlled, without requiring a nurse or aide to shift a drop controller or other control device from one upper Y-line to another after one solution container has emptied.
It is, therefore, an object of the present invention to provide a method and apparatus for intravenously administering two or more solutions that is relatively simple, economical, and minimizes the effort and time required by a nurse or aide in supervising and managing such an administration.
Still another object of the present invention resides in the provision of a piggy-back Y-type IV set that provides a single flow monitoring and/or control station that is capable of monitoring the flow of fluid or solution from any one of a plurality of solution containers.
Another object of the present invention resides in the provision of a Y-type IV set that is provided with a drip chamber below the Y-connector or Y-connection point which enables the flow from any upper Y-line to be monitored by said drip chamber below the Y-connector point.
It is also a further object of the present invention to provide a Y-type piggy-back IV set that is designed to direct a continuous uninterrupted and unmonitored stream of solution from a respective solution container to said Y-connector and therefrom through a drip chamber, wherein the existence of air bubbles in the system is only a problem downstream from the drip chamber.
Other objects and advantages of the present invention will become apparent from a study of the following description and the accompanying drawings which are merely illustrative of the present invention.
The FIGURE is a diagrammatic illustration of the Y-type IV set of the present invention shown in conjunction with a drop count controller.
With further reference to the drawings, the Y-type IV set of the present invention is shown therein and indicated generally by the numeral 10. IV set 10 is designed to connect to two solutions, the solutions being referred to herein as a primary solution contained in a primary solution container 12 and a secondary solution contained within container 14. As shown in the drawings, the respective solution containers 12 and 14 are adapted to be supported from a cross member of a rack 16 in conventional fashion.
Turning to the Y-type IV set 10 of the present invention, it is seen that the same includes a pair of feeding lines in the form of a pair of upper legs or branches 18 and 20. Each leg 18 or 20 includes a conventional needle type connector about its upper remote ends that is designed to be inserted into a respective solution container 12 or 14 for directing solution therefrom. Further, legs 18 and 20 lead downwardly where they are communicatively connected by a Y-connector 22. Extending from Y-connector 22 is a delivery leg or branch 24. It is thusly appreciated that upper legs 18 and 20 combine with delivery leg 24 to form the basic Y-type IV set 10.
For purposes of reference, the upper leg connected to the primary solution container 12 is referred to by numeral 18 while the other leg connected to the secondary solution container 14 is referred to by numeral 20. In the embodiment disclosed, upper leg 18 includes a one-way check valve 26 that permits flow from container 12 to Y-connector 22 but which prohibits flow from Y-connector 22 back to solution container 12.
Upper leg 20 includes a thumb clamp 28 that can be utilized to adjust the flow therethrough or even to completely stop the flow.
Provided in delivery leg 24 below Y-connector 22 is a drip chamber 30. It is important to appreciate the position of drip chamber 30 with respect to the Y-type IV set 10 and its components. It is to be appreciated that heretobefore that individual drip chambers were placed in both upper Y-legs 18 and 20 immediately below the solution containers 12 and 14.
Formed about the remote or lower end of delivery leg 24 is a needle adapter 32 that is designed to receive a needle 34 for delivering the particular solution intravenously to a patient.
The Y-type IV set 10 of the present invention is designed to work in conjunction with a conventional drop count controller 36 or other type of flow control devices. As seen in the drawings, there is provided a drop sensor 38 operatively associated with controller 36 that is designed to be secured about drip chamber 30. Moreover, delivery leg 24, in conventional fashion, is threaded through a flow control chamber 36a associated with controller 36. The flow control chamber 36a acts to compress and release said delivery leg 24 in a modulating manner to control the flow therethrough in response to the count of drops passing through drip chamber 30.
Consequently it is appreciated that in the case of the present invention, both primary and secondary solutions can be monitored and/or controlled through a single monitoring station that in the present case comprises the drip chamber 30 and an associated monitoring or control device such as the controller 36. The present Y-type IV set design enables high primary and secondary solutions to be administered sequentially without requiring a nurse or aide to reposition the controller 35 and/or drop sensor 38 between drip chambers disposed in the upper legs 18 or 20.
In carrying out the method of the present invention, the solution to be administered first is suspended at a height above the other solution or solutions. Typically the secondary solution is administered first and accordingly in the case of the present disclosure, the secondary solution container 14 would be elevated above primary solution container 12. The pressure head associated with the elevation of secondary solution container 14 would effectively close check valve 26. The closing of check valve 26 prohibits flow from the primary container 12. While check valve 26 is closed, the secondary solution within container 14 passes through upper leg 20, through Y-connector 22 into delivery leg 24. As the secondary solution passes through delivery leg 24, it is constrained to pass through the flow monitoring station therein comprised of drip chamber 30 and any associated control device. Consequently, the secondary solution is monitored continuously at a point below Y-connector 22.
Once the secondary solution has emptied from container 14, the pressure head acting against check valve 26 no longer exists and, therefore, check valve 26 opens. The opening of check valve 26 allows the primary solution in container 12 to automatically and sequentially begin to flow through upper leg 18 and into the delivery leg 24. As outlined above, the primary solution is monitored by the same monitoring or flow control station as already discussed in conjunction with the secondary solution.
It should be pointed out that the Y-type IV set 10 and the method of the present invention can be utilized with other types of flow control devices. For example, it is contemplated that the present Y-type IV set and method of administration can be carried out with a positive pressure volumetric pump. Here again the important consideration is in the provision of the flow monitoring and/or control station below the Y-connector 22 as contrasted to providing such in the respective upper or feeding legs of the IV set.
From the foregoing specification, it is apparent that the method and apparatus of the present invention presents a novel approach to the intravenous administration of plural solutions by directing the respective solutions through a common flow monitoring and/or control station, thereby negating the requirement of rearranging controls each time one solution has emptied. This design and approach greatly increases the efficiency of plural solutions administration and substantially simplifies the management and supervision of such. In addition, the very nature of the design itself reduces the area of the IV set where the problem with air bubbles is critical since that area is below the drip chamber and because the present design effectively shifts the flow monitoring station or drip chamber to an area much closer to where the respective solution actually enters the patient's body.
The present invention, of course, may be carried out in other specific ways than those herein set forth without departing from the spirit and essential characteristics of the invention. The present embodiments are, therefore, to be considered in all respects as illustrative and not restrictive, and all changes coming within the meaning and equivalency range of the appended claims are intended to be embraced herein.
