Harry Styles is pleased his ex- girlfriend Taylor Swift is "a great songwriter" in case she chooses to immortalise their failed romance in her music. He discussed what sort of qualities he looks for in a girl and the difficulties of having relationships in the public eye.
Heartbreak is the most common theme in pop songs, especially when the lyrics are addressed to another famous ex. Harry Styles, the One Direction heartthrob, has said in an interview he expects his ex-girlfriend Taylor Swift to write songs about him. His pop group were interviewed by Us Weekly and Styles said "it would be hypocritical for me to say she couldn't do it because everybody writes songs based on personal experience." He, rather sensibly, accepts that in dating someone equally famous he is open to lyrical attacks. The 19-year-old also stated "I can't say I'd have dated someone less famous to avoid it."
Harry Styles at the New York premiere of One Direction's This Is Us.
However, there's still hope for the legions of One Direction fans who are not in the public eye. He claimed he considers dating everyone in the same was as "you like people for who they are, so I couldn't say I want to date someone less famous because of the hassle. You like who you like." Styles discussed what sort of girl he'd like to find. So if you have any of the following qualities, you may well be in for a chance: "someone with a cute laugh and a good smile"; "someone you can have fun with"; who enjoys "trying new things and going out new places."
He also discussed the difficulties of relationships, especially when dealing with the constant pressure of publicity. Styles stated "I think relationships are hard enough, so I think you have to completely ignore everything from outside. When you're you're in the opening stages of a relationship as it is, you're still under the pressure of getting to know everything about a person. If you have a lot of people from outside telling you what it is and they don't even know you, telling you what your relationship is, that's weird. So I think you sort of have to block it out and just have the relationship rather than think - we're having this relationship play out on magazine covers."
Taylor Swift at the 2013 MTV VMAs.
Styles and Swift broke up in January after dating for a few months. John Mayer and Joe Jonas, who Swift also dated have written songs about the 23-year-old singer. Swift has responded to Mayer's 'Paper Doll' with a line in '22' which, according to Us Weekly, references her ex-boyfriend in the line "Dear John," "I'll look back and regret how I ignored when they said run as fast as you can."
The interview follows an incident at the MTV VMAs on Sunday (26th August) where Swift, caught on camera, seems to be mouth "shut the f*ck up" to One Direction whilst they made an introductory speech for one of the awards. However, such hostility seems not to be mutual as Styles spoke favourably of his ex-girlfriend. He also seems to have taken the prospect of Swift referencing him in her music well. He joked "at least she's a great songwriter!"
John Mayer apparently wrote 'Paper Doll' about Swift.

Daily heads confirms global rollout plans
The Daily, the iPad specific newspaper from Apple and News Corp is to hit UK iPads and iPad 2s by June, a representative for the tablet publication has confirmed.
Having launched in the US last month, Chief Digital Officer at The Daily, Jonathan Miller, has revealed News Corp is to roll the iPad newspaper across global markets with the UK and Western Europe kicking off proceedings in the first half of this year.
.relatedLinksLeft { font-size:12px; width:300px; margin:12px 12px 12px 0; float:left; padding:0px 0px 10px 0px; background:#ececec; } h3.rlTitle {margin:0px; display:block; padding:5px 0 4px 15px !important; background:#ddd; }
Speaking at the Abu Dhabi Media Summit Miller announced: "Western Europe is up first in not too long from now." The Telegraph reports that Miller went on to reveal these plans will be realised by the year's mid point.
Currently available in the US for 14 cents per day (roughly eight pence), pricing for UK and European editions of The Daily are currently unknown. Although exclusive to Apple's range of iPad tablets at present, it is believed The Daily will be rolled out to Android devices later this spring.

FORT WORTH, TX - NOVEMBER 06: Matt Kenseth, driver of the #16 CitiFinancial Ford, stands on pit road during qualifying for the NASCAR Nationwide Series O'Reilly Challenge at Texas Motor Speedway on November 6, 2009 in Fort Worth, Texas. (Photo by John Harrelson/Getty Images for NASCAR)
Matt Kenseth has kept his name out of the rumor mill for most of his NASCAR career. When it finally popped up, it was a bombshell: The Sprint Cup Series points leader was planning his departure from Roush Fenway Racing. Kenseth is now explaining part of his decision to leave Roush. He has a new deal in place with a new team, but said he is not ready to announce where he will be in 2013. All signs point to Joe Gibbs Racing, one of the few teams that would not be considered a step down for the 2003 Cup champion. Kenseth says the deal came together quickly over the last few weeks, and telling owner Jack Roush he was leaving was one of the hardest conversations of his life.

Black slaves suffered for 300 years or so before freedom. Us Jews suffered through the worst that could ever happen to a group of people for thousands of years. Constantly! And it is still happening today. Yes, we are free in America and many other places, but we are still hated.
However, what we do is study and study hard. People in this way, even though they hate us, need us.

I still think Korea should get over it. And, when people say the Japanese were brutal, I disagree. Have you ever been to Taiwan and talked to the old people? They loved the Japanese.

Dr Grace Ding
I am a senior academic in the School of the Built Environment, Faculty of Design, Architecture and Building. I completed my PhD in 2004. My PhD thesis was entitled "The development of a multi-criteria approach for the measurement of sustainable performance for built projects and facilities". My PhD involved research on the measurement of environmental values and its incorporation into project appraisal. This research developed an assessment model which has attracted substantial attention within the industry, and can be used to assess the sustainability (ecological and economical) of built project facilities.
I have actively participated in research projects and published widely with over 70 publications, books, book chapters, technical reports and international referred conferences in the area of sustainability. I have also been invited by the editors of international journals as an expert reviewer for articles in the sustainability and construction areas. In addition to research I am also teaching at both undergraduate and postgraduate courses in subjects related to construction and sustainability. I am responsible for developing 5D BIM for the Cost Management Stream which has been leading the move towards incorporating digital technology into the Built Environment curriculum. I'm active in the administration of professional institutes, as a council member of the CIOB, an APC assessor for RICS and external examiner for the University of South Australia.

Did you ever have a pesky tune in your head that just won't go away???
While standing in my morning shower
Pitter patter on my face
An old tune popped into my head
And then my mind began to race
I knew this tune but did not know why
Or how or where from whence it came
The more I thought the less I knew
As old age played its amusing game
Finally it began to gel
It was a TV jingle from long ago
Madison Ave time bomb in my head
But what they were selling I still don't know
The bomb went off but was a dud
Today my office smells of smoke
From the burned spot on my wooden head
As I try to solve their evil joke
A young ladies voice, maybe British
A wordless tune except for one
La La La in sweet repetition
So with the Den I'll share the fun
Good Luck I gave up
La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La La La
La La La La La La La La

U.S. multinational companies sidestep a whopping $90 billion in federal income tax annually, according to a study released this month by the Citizens for Tax Justice and the U.S. Public Interest Research Group. Some companies are so successful at skirting taxes that they end up making money from the government: 26 of the 288 profitable companies examined paid a negative tax rate over the five-year period from 2008 to 2012.
While this may sound bad, these corporations are usually just taking advantage of tax loopholes in a completely legal manner. And many people say that those tax savings may help boost the economy, as corporations use that saved money to expand their companies and hire new workers. But others think that letting corporations off the hook when it comes to taxes may hurt the average American, as those tax dollars could be used to fund everything from infrastructure to education to health care. And some people go even further than that: "Any tax these companies don't pay is tax revenue the rest of us have to make up," says Gardner. "Lower taxes on big multinationals inevitably mean higher taxes on middle-income families and small businesses."
Also see: 7 top nations for dodging taxes
But good or bad, corporate tax dodging likely isn't going anywhere anytime soon. Here are 10 companies that have gotten their tax rates well below zero (the full list is here on page 41) – meaning that, over a five-year period, they ended up getting a tax refund from the government, CTJ estimates.
— By Catey Hill
Pepco Holdings
Tax rate: -33%
Pepco Holdings, which sells power to roughly two million people in Delaware, Washington, D.C., Maryland and New Jersey, earned more than $1.7 billion in profit over a five-year period. But the company's tax rate was -33% (the lowest of all the 288 profitable companies examined) and over five years it earned tax returns totaling $575 million. Gardner says that utility companies tend to "rely heavily on accelerated depreciation" to lower their effective tax rates. Pepco says that they pay all taxes they owe in accordance with the law and that "tax benefits create new investment opportunities and jobs, and the tax savings get passed to our customers in the form of lower rates."
PG&E Corp.
Tax rate: -16.7%
San-Francisco-based utility company Pacific Gas and Electric Company PCG, +2.74% , which serves about 15 million Californians, rakes in loads of profits: In the past five years alone, it has netted more than $7 billion. But it paid a tax rate of -16.7% and got returns of more than $1.17 billion. This is well below the U.S. average for utility, gas and electric companies, which tend to have an effective tax rate of 2.9%. Like Pepco, PG&E Corp. uses extensive asset depreciation to lower its tax rate, the report revealed. A spokesperson for the company says: PG&E did just what Congress intended: we spent billions of dollars on job-creating investments in California infrastructure. Our customers have benefited from the resulting tax savings as well.
Tax rate: -13.6%
Energy company NiSource NI, +1.66% pays a net effective tax rate of -13.6% and over a five-year period got more than $336 million in tax refunds. Meanwhile, the company pulled in nearly $2.5 billion in profits. NiSource used the domestic production activities deduction — which gives a tax break to some companies that do manufacturing in this country — to cut its tax rate, the report revealed. NiSource notes that since 2008, it has invested more than $7.5 billion in capital expenditures to support energy infrastructure projects that helped spur local spending and job creation and that this year is on pace to invest more than $2.2 billion on similar projects.
Wisconsin Energy
Tax rate: -13.5%
Wisconsin Energy WEC, +2.42% provides electric and natural gas service to customers in Wisconsin and Michigan — and that's proved to be highly profitable for the company. From 2008 to 2012, they've made $3.2 billion in profit, though their net effective tax rate is -13.5%. They've also gotten more than $435 million in tax refunds. Wisconsin Energy notes that because Wisconsin Energy and other electric and natural gas utilities are allowed, by law, to claim accelerated depreciation on capital investments, half of the 26 companies on the list were in the utility industry. It also says that "the vast majority of the tax benefits permitted under the country's tax laws have already been passed on to our customers and used to significantly lower their utility rates over the period of this report."
General Electric
Tax rate: -11.1%
GE GE, +0.61% brought in more than $27 billion in profit over the five-year period from 2008 to 2012, but the company got $3 billion in tax refunds and its effective federal tax rate was -11.1%. "GE relies on the active financing loophole to cut its U.S. taxes," says Gardner. "For each year cited by Citizens for Tax Justice, GE paid income taxes in the U.S., as well as billions in other state, local and federal taxes in the U.S. CTJ inaccurately uses the current tax provision — a book accounting number — to make definitive statements about our U.S. income taxes," a GE spokesperson says. "This is not the same as the cash income tax that we pay for a given year.".
Tenet Healthcare
Tax rate: -6%
This health care company received $51 million in tax refunds from 2008 to 2012 and paid a net rate of — 6%; this is significantly below the 29.6% rate that health care companies tend to average. Meanwhile, profits were $854 million. "Deferral explains the company's low tax rates in 2011 and 2012," the report reveals. Tenet THC, +0.18% has not yet responded to a request for comment.
American Electric Power
Tax rate: -5.8%
This 100+ year-old electric utility company AEP, +2.84% , headquartered in Columbus, Ohio, still has plenty of spark: Not only does it serve about 5 million consumers, it raked in more than $10 billion in profits over five years, while only paying a net tax rate of -5.8%. It got $577 million returned to it. "Deferred taxes, driven primarily by accelerated depreciation, explain most of the company's low rates in all five years," according to the report. The company notes that it is "among the many companies that participated in short-term tax policies developed by Congress and the Obama administration to encourage corporations to spend money to create jobs and boost the economy" and that "in the three-year period before the spending incentives were in place, AEP paid more than $1.1 billion in federal income taxes and $61 million in state income taxes."
Tax rate: -3%
The Priceline Group PCLN, +0.31% , which includes Priceline.com, seems to have taken its own advice, and named its own price — well, at least when it comes to taxes. The organization, which made $557 million in profits over a five-year period from 2008 to 2012, had a net effective tax rate of -3% and got refunds worth nearly $17 million. "Excess tax benefits from stock options reduced federal and state taxes by $5.2, $21.0, $3.1, $2.1 and $7.0 million in 2012, 2011, 2010, 2009 and 2008," the report revealed. The Priceline Group declined to comment.
Verizon Communications
Tax rate: -1.8%
Of the 26 companies that paid negative tax rates, Internet and phone company Verizon VZ, +0.45% raked in the largest profit (more than $30 billion over a five-year period), even though it paid an effective tax rate of -1.8% — that's compared with an industry average of 22.4% for Internet companies and 9.8% for telecommunications companies — and got a total tax return of $535 million. " A Verizon spokesperson suggests that the CTJ report "grossly overstates our profits over the five-year period by including pretax income that is attributable to Vodafone" and notes that "tax-policy-reform agendas like CTJ often cherry pick disclosures from the company's SEC filings" which "distorts the facts and misrepresents Verizon's commitment to paying its fair share in taxes."
Tax rate: -1%
Aerospace and defense company Boeing BA, +1.87% fuels its bottom line with fat tax refunds from Uncle Sam: From 2008 to 2012, the government paid Boeing $202 million, despite the fact that it saw profits of $20 billion. Its net effective five-year tax rate was -1%; that's compared with an industry average of 16.7%. Boeing notes that its current tax expense has been reduced somewhat in recent years by the very large investment it has have made in jobs and production facilities for its new airplanes, which are taxes that largely are deferred until they begin to deliver the 787 jet (and get the revenue back from their investment) in high volume at steady rates.

Search for the Dancing Amazing Spiderman. It's the same sort of thing; it works with any song! So cool!
The new raindrop effect looks great, but do these effects impact the performance?
They really did when I first implemented them. I've tweaked the weather effects and ground effects to a point where the performance impact is no longer significant.
This makes me wonder...
Can a planet have multiple weather effects? It'd be interesting to see the fog lower visibility while the rain reduces laser accuracy. Or on Hoth, have the snow reduce visibility and high winds mess with rockets accuracy.
Of course, if a planet can't have multiple effects, then this is all moot.
Yes and no... You can set up multiple weather scenarios that the Mao will choose randomly but you're stuck with that scenario for the duration of the battle. In order to achieve some of the more "fine detail" effects too, props have to be used...and props aren't part of a preset weather scenario and therefore will appear, no matter what ambient weather is selected. So potentially, you could have rain splashes on a sunny day and so on.
Ah, ok. Would have been pretty cool. What about "combined" weather effects? So one effect that, say on Hoth, reduces visibility and rocket accuracy at the same time?
Yeah, that's totally possible and already exists, if I remember right.
So beautiful ;-;.
Thanks all!
I was thinking that was an icon for a clone hero at the top, but then I realized it's the 501st!
Yes indeed. A re-structured 501st Legion is one of the Remnant's hero units.
Very nice. Liking the new fog effect a lot.
The water reflection is amazing
Farseer...you are a magician with this game.

Known as The Virgin Queen (although that's doubtful), this hot historical woman ruler attracted more suitors than a pack of Angelina Jolies. Elizabeth's serious game of "playing hard to get" drove men mad. Guys always want what they can't have, especially when it's a sexy, all-powerful queen. It's said that her last courtship ended when she was aged 48; it was with François, Duke of Anjou, 22 years her junior. That mature minx!

ObamaŌĆÖs ValentineŌĆÖs Day budget: No roses or bon-bons for the GOP
President Obama's FY 2012 budget lands on congressional desks Monday. Republicans are unimpressed, which sets the scene for a long fight over spending, taxing, and deficit reduction.
Jacquelyn Martin/AP
ItŌĆÖs only by coincidence that President ObamaŌĆÖs federal budget for FY 2012 arrives on congressional desks on ValentineŌĆÖs Day ŌĆō a weighty tome far heavier than a box of chocolates.
ItŌĆÖs more challenge than gift, though, especially now that the tea party-tinged House is run by Republicans. TheyŌĆÖre already ripping through the contents, pronouncing them unacceptable.
ObamaŌĆÖs budget, House Speaker John Boehner said on NBCŌĆÖs ŌĆ£Meet the PressŌĆØ Sunday, ŌĆ£will continue to destroy jobs by spending too much, borrowing too much, and taxing too much.ŌĆØ
ŌĆ£Borrowing and spending is not the way to prosperity,ŌĆØ Rep. Paul Ryan, chairman of the House Budget Committee, said on ŌĆ£Fox News Sunday.ŌĆØ
The plan is ŌĆ£very small on spending discipline,ŌĆØ the Wisconsin Republican said. ŌĆ£Presidents are elected to lead, not to punt. And this president has been punting.ŌĆØ
ThatŌĆÖs certainly not the way the White House sees it.
ŌĆ£After a decade of rising deficits, this budget asks Washington to live within its means, while at the same time investing in our future,ŌĆØ Obama said in his weekly radio address Saturday.
ŌĆ£ItŌĆÖs not possible to do this painlessly,ŌĆØ White House budget director Jacob Lew said on CNNŌĆÖs ŌĆ£State of the UnionŌĆØ Sunday. ŌĆ£We have a responsible budget that will cut in half the deficit by the end of the presidentŌĆÖs first term.ŌĆØ
Budget highlights
Some of the highlights reported so far:
According to an Office of Management and Budget summary obtained by the Associated Press, the administration will propose more than $1 trillion in deficit reduction over the next decade with two-thirds of that amount coming from spending cuts.
Some $400 billion in savings would come from a five-year freeze on non-security discretionary spending. Still, that covers just 10 percent of the overall federal budget, leaving out most defense spending and major entitlements.
Following the lead of Defense Secretary Robert Gates, ObamaŌĆÖs budget includes $78 billion in Pentagon savings. Pentagon cuts would include the C-17 aircraft, the alternate engine to the Joint Strike Fighter, and the Marine Expeditionary Vehicle that the Defense Department says it does not need, according to the Reuters news agency.
One-third of the savings would come from tax revenues, including by closing several tax loopholes and capping itemized deductions.
There are cuts to some programs particularly close to DemocratsŌĆÖ hearts ŌĆō Pell Grants for low-income college students, community development block grants, and low-income heating assistance.
Some of the new House Republican members, propelled into office with tea party backing, seem ready if not eager to force even more belt-tightening on the Pentagon ŌĆō traditionally a place safe from budget cutting.
ThatŌĆÖs unsettling to some GOP old-timers, including Sen. John McCain (R) of Arizona.
ŌĆ£WeŌĆÖre going to have to make a lot of reforms ŌĆ" but at the same time we are in two wars,ŌĆØ McCain said on CBSŌĆÖs ŌĆ£Face the Nation.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£I hope that some of my new colleagues on the other side of the Capitol understand that weŌĆÖve got to be very careful with cuts in defense spending.ŌĆØ
While the spending freeze highlights ObamaŌĆÖs budget for FY 2012, Republicans want to start cutting right now ŌĆō including the budget that covers the last seven months of FY 2011. Without a ŌĆ£continuing resolutionŌĆØ providing funds for this year (ObamaŌĆÖs 2011 budget was never passed into law) the government could shut down March 4.
Boehner: More cuts coming
"Once we cut the discretionary accounts, then we'll get into the mandatory spending,ŌĆØ Boehner told the Conservative Political Action Conference (CPAC) on Friday. ŌĆ£And then you'll see more cuts."
Originally, House GOP leaders planned for about $32 billion in spending cuts for the rest of 2011. But under pressure from fiscal conservatives ŌĆō including many new freshmen ŌĆō they upped that to $61 billion, allowing them to claim $100 billion in saving from what Obama had wanted to spend for the year.
The Sunday talk show palaver and the documents thumping down on congressional desks Monday are just the start of the annual federal budget ritual.
ŌĆ£The president talks like someone who recognizes that spending is out of control, but so far it hasnŌĆÖt been matched with action,ŌĆØ Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R) of Kentucky said in a statement Sunday. ŌĆ£Americans donŌĆÖt want a spending freeze at unsustainable levels. They want cuts, dramatic cuts. And I hope the president will work with us on achieving them soon.ŌĆØ

Funny, sexy, educated and romantic looking...for the same : )
Thanks for visiting! Figured I would give this a try again.... there are so many interesting people in this big world and I am hoping that I can meet one funny, attractive, interesting, easy-going, confident guy. Is that too much to ask for..lol... I love a great smile. I hate to sound superficial, but chemistry is important to me. What are you waiting for...maybe you will make my day (and yours). A heads up... I am not into one-nigh-stands (not into 3 or 4 night stands either...lol). I don't find age to be a big issue, BUT I am not interesting in guys in their 20s or early 30s. I am silly at times and I also have a serious side. I am totally into people with a great sense of humor... hoping to find someone to rival (or surpass) my humorous side. Most of my photos are recent. Please have photos (recent) too..it is only fair. Good relationships are built on mutual trust and respect. I am well educated and enjoy conversing with people who have something to say and can carry on a conversation. Eventually, I would love to meet that specail guy who will make me melt. Yes, I am a hopeless romantic. I'd like to believe that there is that special guy out there and I am hoping that fate (or this site) will bring us together. I am down to earth and easy to get a long with. Confidence is good, as long as it doesn't become arrogance. I want a man who enjoys my company but has his own interests. I want to be that distraction that makes my guy smile throughout the day. Not into possessive guys. I enjoy dining out or eating in. I can cook too! I do love a great meal. I will be your sexy dinner date as well as a fun date at a sporting event. I will even feed you....I like Italian, Sushi, big salads and Mexican food. The gym is a great place to unwind but I also like to be outside. Last year I took up ballet! Some of my classmates are 9 and 10 years old...lol... I also like to kayak. Travel is one of my hobbies... I have been to many US cities, Europe several times as well as toasty warm places like Jamaica. Sometimes I like a cultural trip and other times, it is just fun to lay in the sun and feel the sand. I love animals, and would prefer my man at least likes them. Unfortunately my little pomeranian died. He was very much loved and I do miss him. I do share my heart with another small dog who is a doll. He is the tan and white little boy pictured with me. Thanks for visiting and best of luck on here! PS: I don't want to sound like a jerk, but I do not reply to winks or e-mails without photos. You may be great and I understand you have reasons for not posting a pic, but I don't even read profiles without pics...sorry. I won't give out my e-mail for you to send a photo to. I understand it can be a bit embarrasing to have the world know that you are doing online dating, but let's get over it. I posted a pic, I hope you will too.

An orthopaedic reamer assembly includes a reamer with a generally hemispherical shell having a concave side and at least one attachment feature associated with the concave side. A driver is attachable to the reamer. The driver includes a shaft with a reamer end. The reamer end removably attaches to at least one attachment feature.
1. An orthopaedic driver, comprising:
a shaft with a reamer end; and
a releasable collar disposed on said reamer end, said releasable collar including a boss having at least one retaining pin; a sleeve fitted over said boss, said sleeve including at least one groove, each said groove proximate to a corresponding said retaining pin; a cavity in said reamer end; a biasing element in said cavity, said biasing element biasing said sleeve in a closed position respective to said boss; and a release pin in said reamer end, said release pin press fit into said sleeve, said release pin conveyed through said cavity, said biasing element biasing against said release pin.
1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates to orthopaedic instruments, and, more particularly, to an apparatus and method of attaching an orthopaedic reamer to an orthopaedic driver.
2. Description of the Related Art
Orthopaedic reamers and drivers may be used to prepare the acetabulum for hip joint prosthesis. A rotary tool provides the motive force and is connected to the driver which is connected to the reamer. The drivers generally have a shaft and a reamer end. Reamers are generally hemispherical in shape and attach to the reamer end at the base of the hemisphere. The interior portion of the reamer is known as the debris cavity.
Connecting the driver reamer end to the reamer is known to include attachment of the driver to the base of the reamer. The reamer base can include various backing plates, crossbars and pins which the driver grips. In manufacturing such a reamer, the hemispherical shell can be deep drawn and then assembly of the reamer base to the backing plate, etc. is required. Therefore, this type of design requires multiple production steps including labor and cost intensive methods such as welding, grinding and polishing. Another disadvantage of known mounting methods includes the cost and time to manufacture the various backing plates, etc.
In use, the designs discussed above are problematic in that backing plates and the like mounted to the reamer base block the debris cavity. Such mounting techniques also have surfaces which do not have line of sight access, being blocked by either the hemispherical shell or a surface of the backing plate, thereby making the reamer difficult to clean and sterilize. Given the fact that these instruments are required to be sterile before use and are used in a sterile field (the operating room), every precaution must be exercised in cleaning the instruments, which makes a difficult cleaning procedure time intensive.
When the reamer is used to prepare the acetabulum for hip joint prosthesis, variation in the size of the acetabulum for the human population requires a range of sizes of acetabular reamers, a specific size of the acetabular reamer being determined by the hip joint size of the person undergoing hip joint prosthesis. The different sizes of acetabular reamers are generally specified by different radii of curvature, or diameters, of the hemispherical shell. Some of the known methods of mounting reamers to drivers, because of the attachment of the base of the reamer to the driver, and therefore a dependency on the reamer diameter, require modifications to the driver or different drivers for different size reamers. This increases the cost of a tool set that can accommodate a wide range of hip joint size.
What is needed in the art is apparatus and method of attaching a reamer to a driver that provides ease of manufacturing the reamer, minimizes or eliminates the debris cavity blockage, is suitable for easy and thorough cleaning and sterilization and in which a single driver can be used for a range of reamer sizes.
The present invention provides a reamer and driver wherein the driver attaches to the inside, or concave, surface of the reamer.
The invention comprises, in one form thereof, an orthopaedic reamer assembly including a reamer with a generally hemispherical shell having a concave side and at least one attachment feature associated with the concave side. A driver is attachable to the reamer. The driver includes a shaft with a reamer end. The reamer end is removably attached to at least one attachment feature.
An advantage of the present invention is an orthopaedic reamer assembly including a single piece reamer that is relatively easy and cost effective to manufacture.
Another advantage of the present invention is an orthopaedic reamer assembly that minimizes or eliminates the debris cavity blockage.
Yet another advantage of the present invention is an orthopaedic reamer assembly suitable for easy and thorough cleaning and sterilization.
A further advantage of the present invention is an orthopaedic reamer assembly wherein a single driver can be used for a range of reamer sizes.
The above-mentioned and other features and advantages of this invention, and the manner of attaining them, will become more apparent and the invention will be better understood by reference to the following description of embodiments of the invention taken in conjunction with the accompanying drawings, wherein:
Corresponding reference characters indicate corresponding parts throughout the several views. The exemplifications set out herein illustrate one preferred embodiment of the invention, in one form, and such exemplifications are not to be construed as limiting the scope of the invention in any manner.
Referring now to the drawings, and more particularly to
Reamer 22 includes hemispherical shell 26 with at least one attachment feature 27 protruding on concave side 30 (FIG. 9). In the embodiment shown in
Driver 24 includes shaft 50 connected to reamer end 52. Shaft 50 is a generally elongate cylindrical shape with connective features 51 opposite reamer end 52. Reamer end 52 includes releasable collar 53 with sleeve 54 fitted over boss 64. Biasing element 58 is mounted in cavity 60. Biasing element 58 is shown in
Sleeve 54 includes at least one groove 68 located proximate to at least one retaining pin 66 in boss 64. In the embodiment shown, there are three grooves 68 and three retaining pins 66 corresponding to three attachment features 27. Groove 68 is complimentary in shape to indent 28 of attachment feature 27.
Boss 64 includes ring 63 defining ring hole 65 therein. Boss 64 further includes open area 67.
To attach reamer 22 with driver 24, reamer 22 is positioned proximate to driver 24 with attachment feature 27 approximately aligned with retaining pin 66 and groove 68 as shown in FIG. 4. Sleeve 54 is biased in an open position as shown in FIG. 5. Concave side 30 of reamer 22 is mounted onto reamer end 52 of driver 24 (
Surgical debris (not shown) can exit orthopaedic reamer assembly 20 between boss 64 and concave side 30 or through ring 63 and open area 67. All exposed surfaces in both reamer 22 and driver 24 have line of sight access facilitating easy and thorough cleaning and sterilization.
Single piece reamer 22 is relatively easy and cost effective to manufacture. Driver 24 facilitates quick and convenient attachment of reamer 22. A single driver 24 can be used for a range of reamer sizes. The design of both reamer 22 and driver 24 minimizes or eliminates the debris cavity blockage during surgical procedure and cleaning and sterilization.
While this invention has been described as having a preferred design, the present invention can be further modified within the spirit and scope of this disclosure. This application is therefore intended to cover any variations, uses, or adaptations of the invention using its general principles. Further, this application is intended to cover such departures from the present disclosure as come within known or customary practice in the art to which this invention pertains and which fall within the limits of the appended claims.
