The present invention may be directed to many different embodiments. Some embodiments of the present invention relate to catheters and medical device delivery systems. At least one embodiment of the invention is directed to a delivery system and sheath for deploying self expanding stents and stent grafts used in treating stenotic lesions at bifurcations in body vessels without requiring multiple catheterizations.
Stents or stent grafts are a form of transluminal prosthesis devices which are used to maintain, open or dilate stenotic lesions in body lumens which have been affected by disease. These prosthetic devices are typically either of two types including the balloon expandable and "self-expanding" varieties. Self expanding stents are inserted into the vascular system in a compressed or contracted state, are permitted to expand upon removal of a restraint typically referred to as a retractable sheath or sleeve. These stents are particularly advantageous for use because they may be formed of a shape memory alloy which is both resistant to compression and also has the ability to return to its previous shape. NITINOL is a shape memory alloy that is commonly used in stents and stent grafts. Alternative forms of self-expanding stents also exist which are not made of NITINOL such as the Wallstent� Endoprosthesis. In addition to metals, stents may also be formed of biodegradable materials.
It is often the case that a stenotic lesion occurs at a branch or bifurcation in a vessel. Placement and deployment of these prosthetic devices at bifurcations can be much more problematic. One current technique is to deploy a tubular stent having an opening across the bifurcation for placing a second stent through. Once the first stent is deployed, then the physician must then advance the second stent through the first stent.
It is advantageous in the case of bifurcations to utilize two separate guide wires to access the lesion and for positioning of each of the prosthetic devices used in the procedure including the second stent which is placed in the side branch.
This approach is advantageously used for positioning and deployment of balloon expandable stents. In the case of balloon expandable stents, the first stent, mounted on its delivery balloon is advanced over both the first guide wire and the second guide wire which exits from a hole in the mid-side portion of the stent and its balloon. This stent is then advanced to the first branch in the vessel at the region of the bifurcation and deployed. A second stent may then be advanced along the second guide wire through the hole in the first stent and positioned in the second branch at the region of the bifurcation. In this fashion, both stents may be accurately positioned and fixed in place by expansion of the balloon without the need to move either guide wire.
This approach is more problematic in the case of self-expandable stents because these stents are constrained in their form by a sheath, also referred to in the art as a sleeve or housing, which must be retracted in order to deploy the stent. Traditional sheaths are not formed with a hole to allow for exit of the side branch guide wire. Furthermore, even if such a hole was present, retraction of the sheath would be impossible in a two wire delivery system for self expanding stents.
One solution to this problem has been to add a slot from the wire exit port to the distal end of the sheath which allows the sheath to be retracted without moving the wire. Alternatively, a preferential tear line could be formed to make the slot. WO 99/34749 describes a self-expanding bifurcation stent and a delivery sleeve and method of delivery of such stents. The system includes a self-expanding stent and a corresponding delivery sleeve adapted to house two guide wires, one of which exits from the distal end and a second of which exits from a side hole in the stent. The preferred embodiments replace the hole with a longitudinal or oval slot. See WO 99/34749, pages 8-9. However, while the slot is advantageous for housing the second guide wire, keeping the sheath together is problematic. WO 99/34749 describes reinforcing the rim of the slot to adequately constrain the stent prior to deployment.
The entire content of all patents, patent applications and publications listed herein are incorporated herein by reference.
As indicated above, the present invention is directed to many embodiments. In at least one embodiment, the invention is directed to a catheter delivery device comprising a sheath which is specially adapted for delivery and deployment of a stent, wherein the stent is specially adapted for use into a bifurcated vessel which has a first branch and a second branch. The catheter employs a novel distal tip for securing a sheath thereto prior to stent delivery. The sheath is an elongate tubular member for housing a first and second guide wire lumen and a first and second guide wire. The sheath is adapted for use with a stent specially adapted for use in a bifurcated vessel by providing an outlet hole and or slit at the distal end of the sheath for exit of one or more guide wires into the first branch of the bifurcated vessel. The outlet may be further characterized as, weakened groove, perforation or the like. A weakened groove may be cut by the guide wire upon retraction of the sheath. In either instance, the guide wire does not hinder retraction of the sheath nor does the guide wire become trapped under the sheath upon retraction.
The distal tip overlaps the distal end of the slitted, grooved or perforated sheath holding the sheath together and consequently maintaining the stent properly in its unexpanded state. This configuration allows the wire to remain in place as the sheath is retracted and the stent is deployed decreasing the likelihood that the stent will move out of position upon retraction.
The device of the present invention maintains the flexibility of a sheath which does not require reinforcement and allows for excellent trackability and maneuverability of the device through body lumen.
The stent delivery system of the present invention is designed for delivery and deployment of a bifurcated stent or multiple stents at a bifurcation in a body lumen. Represented in
First guide wire 40 exits the distal end of sheath 20 through tip 50. Guide wires 40 may be formed of any suitable medical grade alloy and may range in diameter from about 0.038-008″ as is known in the art. Tip 50 may be formed of a suitable medical grade polymer. Tip 50 may further be formed of a polymer which is suitably soft to provide an atraumatic leading edge to stent delivery system 10. Alternatively, tip 50 may be formed of a hard plastic such as polycarbonate or metal where a strong or tuff tip is desired.
Second guide wire 60 is depicted exiting slit 70 in sheath 20. Slit 70 extends to distal end 75 of sheath 20. Slit 70 may also be formed by a perforation or weakened longitudinal portion of sheath 20. Distal end 75 may be covered by tip 50 such that tip 50 protects distal end 75 from snagging on any portion of the delivery system or the patient's vasculature. Tip 50 further holds slit 70 closed and thereby maintains stent 30 in its unexpanded state.
For illustrative purposes only, stent 30 is shown in its unexpanded form. However, in use stent 30 may expand immediately upon release of the constraining force of sheath 20.
In another embodiment of the invention,
Stent delivery system 100 may be formed of suitable medical polymers and may further include wire reinforcement (not shown). System 100 may further have a single lumen or multiple lumens configured to individually constrain wires 40 and 60 respectively. Tips 120 and 122 may be attached to system 100 by adhesive, melt bonding or any other suitable technique. Alternatively, tip 120 and 122 may be molded to system 100.
This completes the description of the embodiments of the invention. Those skilled in the art may recognize other equivalents to the specific embodiment described herein where such equivalents are intended to be encompassed by the claims attached hereto.

In this monograph, the notion of "forms" associated to Fermat equations, Pnr : X1r+X2r+ … +Xnr = 0, is developed. The main tool in this endeavor is the Galois descent. If K/k is a Galois extension with Galois group G, and if X is an object defined over k, then every object Y defined over k which becomes isomorphic over K (called a K/k-form of X) defines a class in the Galois cohomology group H1(G,A(X)) where A(X) denotes the automorphism group of X over K. The idea of Galois descent is to deduce properties of Y from properties of X by "twisting" with this class. For instance, let K be the separable closure of k; diagonal equations a1X1r+a2X2r+ … +anXnr = 0 are K/k-forms of Fermat equations Pnr. A natural question arises: Are there any K/k-forms of Pnr (so-called "twisted Fermat equations), which are not diagonal? To address this question, the author considers all forms of Pnr, classifies them, and then studies them by the method of Galois descent. When k is a finite field, he proposes to compute the zeta-function of such forms.
The detailed study of the Galois cohomology groups H1(G,A), when A is non-abelian, is carried out. For instance, if K is the separable closure of k, then A(Pnr) is given by the wreath product W of the group μr of r-th roots of unity and the symmetric group Sn, and the K/k-forms are then given by classes in the cohomology group H1(Gk,W). As an application, classification results of forms are obtained; especially, a complete explicit classification of binary cubic forms is achieved.
If Q is a special form of the Fermat equation Pnr, characterized by a cohomology class θ[Q], then the cohomology of the hypersurface, and hence its zeta-function are completely determined by H*etθ[Q]. The heart of this monograph is to compute the automorphism on the l-adic cohomology group of Xnr induced by an element in A(Pnr). Using this method, the zeta-function of a binary cubic form is calculated. Also this method allows one to compute the zeta-function of (not necessarily cubic) forms of Fermat equations, and calculations are carried out in some examples.
The monograph is written in very friendly manner with numerous examples. It is a good addition to the book of Gouvêa and Yui on Arithmetic of Diagonal Hypersurfaces over Finite Fields. It is highly recommended to anyone who is interested in computing zeta-functions of twisted Fermat equations.

Senate Ag Chair Debbie Stabenow and Ranking Member Thad Cochran are calling on stakeholders – and the public – to make recommendations and provide input on the reauthorization of the Commodity Futures Trading Commission.
Both Senators says this year's reauthorization comes at an important – but challenging – time. They say domestic regulators – like the CFTC – continue to implement the Wall Street Reform and Consumer Protection Act and work to harmonize the legislation globally.
Also, the Senators says these markets are evolving rapidly and face extraordinary regulatory and market pressures.
Stabenow and Cochran say they are prepared to determine how to better protect customers – for instance after failure of companies like MF Global – in the coming year. Both want the reauthorization process to be open and bipartisan. They have not predetermined any actions or legislative text – but believe it is important to have conversations about a broad range of CFTC-related issues – including market oversight, agency oversight and resources, and statutory authorities.
Stabenow and Cochran ask for input in writing to email@example.com by May 1st. They then will make the suggestions public and part of the ongoing dialogue about how to address these challenges.

Denver, South Park & Pacific Railroad
web counter
<-- NEWS --> As of July 19, 2014 we have laid over 4,330 ft of mainline track. The Boreas Pass Wye at the top has been completed!!! We are now able to turn trains at the top and have bi-directional operation over 4,330 ft of mainline track making it a round trip of 8,660 ft.. Thanks go out to some hard working folks from Colorado Springs, Pueblo, Denver and Chicago.
New photos have been uploaded Sept 21, 2014... see Photo Index /2014 Track Work and Ballast Hopper Car
The Denver, South Park and Pacific Railroad is a 7 1/2" gauge railroad located in the beautiful South Park area west of Colorado Springs, Colorado. The railroad is currently under construction with a planned mainline of over 8,000 ft of track. The minimum radius is 75 feet with a maximum grade of 3.5%. The topography of the area is rolling hills with approximately 30% coverage in Ponderosa Pine. Typically we are laying track on Saturdays late April thru late December. Construction trains are running out to the ever advancing railhead carrying track and cross ties. The Boreas Pass Wye now allows trains to be turned at the top. This will give us bi-directional train operation from the Como Wye at the bottom to the Boreas Pass Wye at the top... about 4,330 ft one way or 8,660 ft round trip. The railroad is divided into a Northern and Southern division. The Southern Division is now fully operational with over 4,330 ft of mainline track laid in place.
We have an unloading device capable of handling a Northern locomotive. The 20 ft. turntable is installed and is operable. Additionally two swinging gate bridges are in place and operable. See Contacts on this webpage for info on how to contact us. All railroad fans are welcome to come and run their engines. Due to the extreme fire hazard only propane steamers are allowed. Diesels and electrics are welcome.

Jennie Auger is one of eight seniors that will be honored prior to Saturday's game vs. MSU.
May 5, 2011
ATHENS, Ga. – The seventh-ranked University of Georgia softball team will play host to a Southeastern Conference series with Mississippi State this weekend at Jack Turner Stadium.
Georgia (42-9, 15-8 SEC) and Mississippi State (23-29, 9-16 SEC) will play the three-game series with contests on Friday at 6:30 p.m. ET, Saturday at 2:30 p.m. and Sunday at 1:30 p.m. Admission is free and free live video courtesy of GTV will be available for the entire series on www.georgiadogs.com.
Prior to the start of Friday's game, the Bulldogs will present a check Athens Regional Health Services from the funds raised in connection with UGA's Strike Out Cancer promotional event which included the team wearing and auctioning off pink jerseys against Kentucky on April 9.
On Saturday, it will be luau day at UGA with the first 250 kids eighth grand and under receiving a pucker fish Webkinz and all fans receiving lei's while supplies last. Fans will also be able to receive free samples of Smoothie King.
Prior to Saturday's contest, Georgia will hold its senior day honoring the eight seniors on this year's squad: Jennie Auger, Alisa Goler, Brianna Hesson, Sarah McCloud, Katie Murphy, Laura Trout, Taylor Schlopy and Megan Wiggins.
In the latest release of the national poll on Tuesday, Georgia was ranked No. 7 in the USA Today/NFCA Top 25 poll and No. 9 in the ESPN.com/USA Softball Top 25 poll.
In the all-time UGA-MSU series, the Bulldogs from Starkville hold a slight lead at 21-20 but the Bulldogs from Athens won the two-game series last year at MSU, 3-0 and 7-6.
The SEC regular season will come to a close this weekend, and Georgia currently sits fourth behind Tennessee, Alabama and Florida. The top eight teams in the league advance to the SEC Tournament in Oxford, May 12-14, and those eight teams have been determined but where each team is seeded will come down to this final weekend of competition. Behind Georgia in the current top-eight standings are Kentucky, LSU, Auburn and Mississippi State. Pending the results around the league this weekend, Georgia could finish anywhere between second and sixth.
After hosting MSU, Georgia will conclude its regular season with a double header against Longwood on May 11 just prior to traveling to the SEC Tournament. The Bulldogs and Lancers will play the twin bill at 11 a.m. and 1 p.m.

Football on a Budget
It's kickoff time and what better way to celebrate football season than to be frugally festive? Tailgate parties, fan gear, and even game-day tickets don't need to deflate your wallet. We discovered bargain techniques to help fill your football-on-a-budget needs without any costly penalty flags.
Photo by flickr.com/imsohood
Cheap Tailgating.Tailgating is essential to any game-day gathering. By definition, tailgating is cheap. But you can still shave prices and do so in style.
One strategy is to host bigger bashes and save on bulk meats from a club store, such as Sam's Club or Costco. A cheap grill comes in handy for those tailgating bashes and September happens to be the right month to find good deals on grills. Finger foods are customary on game day, which means utensil costs are almost nonexistent. But you'll still need paper products like napkins, paper plates, and cups, so check out the local dollar store or club store if you're hosting a crowd.
Football on a budget also demands versatile and filling snacks. Make sure fans' appetites are well sated before the game begins to avoid reaching for pricey temptations while the clock is ticking. Deviled eggs, a variety of dips, caramel popcorn and peanuts, trail mix, and even fried chicken can be made for less than $1 following the tailgate recipes found on MyRecipes.com. Even better, you can prepare these snacks at home before heading out to tailgate -- literally no muss, no fuss and plenty of time for socializing and the big game.
There's certainly no need to buy, or even bring, folding chairs and storage containers if you host a football-on-a-budget tailgate. Use the car -- the seats, the trunk, the roof, the hood are all efficient, no-cost substitutes -- and turn a trash can into a cooler.
And finally, a true frugal tailgating host will always park in a free, but legal, location.

Cheap Football Tickets.Football tends to attract diehard season ticket holders but there's ample opportunity to snag football tickets on a budget. Online ticket sites are a good place to start. Access to pre-sales via fan clubs and other promotions can also help you catch a long football ticket pass. Check reseller sites such as eBay and Craigslist, too.
Let us not forget the scalpers. Timing is everything here because ticket prices drop substantially after kickoff. Moreover, it's customary to bargain for an even better deal. If you're really entrepreneurial you could purchase discounted tickets ahead of time and then scalp them at a higher price on game day. Reserve one for yourself and after tallying up your profits, you might have turned the game into a freebie.
College teams have a certain appeal for dedicated fans of football on a budget. The tickets, in-stadium food prices, and fan gear are all cheaper at this level compared with the major league. Ticket Liquidator is the right address for cheap college game tickets.
If none of these tips pan out, you can savor the action by watching the game at a neighborhood bar or even from the comfort of your own couch -- just move the tailgate to your house for game time action.
Cheap Fan Gear.Even if you're committed to football on a budget, you can still get into the spirit with fan gear. Styles are relatively consistent from year to year, and items left over from last season are always bargain buys. Amazon stocks a large selection of accessories and men's and women's team apparel at half off. Your local Target and Walmart both likely offer cheap NFL and college attire for men, women, and children. Local thrift stores are likely sources for cheap fan gear, as are online sites selling second-hand goods. Alternatively, learn to create your own fan gear through social media sites such as Pinterest.

Since the year 2000, Dr. William Donaldson has contributed his exclusive analysis of tunes set by the Piobaireachd Society for the major solo piping competitions at the Northern Meeting, Argyllshire Gathering and other significant events.
The author of the seminal work, The Highland Pipe & Scottish Society, Dr. Donaldson explores manuscripts inaccessible to most pipers, and compares and contrasts settings of these great tunes, which now number more than 100 in our series.
In addition to his work as a lecturer in Scottish history with the Open University, William Donaldson received more than eight years of ongoing instruction in ceol mor from the great Robert Bell Nicol of Balmoral, Scotland.
Dr. Donaldson also provides his on musical interpretation of the piobaireachds in MP3 file format.
Please note that the Set Tunes Series is available to all for free and copyright remains with Dr. Donaldson.

Full story here from Fire Dog Lake.
"As Ben Bernanke's confirmation hearing begins in the Senate Banking Committee, a source tells FDL News that one Senate staffer and an outside source confirmed to him that at least one Republican on the committee will also place a hold on the Federal Reserve chairman, throwing the process into potential turmoil and giving Chris Dodd a difficult series of choices to make.
Dodd, who just announced his intention to vote for Bernanke's confirmation in the Banking Committee and on the floor of the Senate, would be in charge of the decision to honor or ignore that hold. The fact that Dodd tried to place a hold on the FISA Amendments Act in 2007-08, and was generally ignored by Harry Reid, just adds a layer of irony to the process.
The source, speaking on condition of anonymity because of his work behind the scenes on the Bernanke confirmation, told me that two separate sources assured him that the Republican hold would be made public after today's hearing. One staffer said that two Republicans would place the hold, while the other said it would just be one. The source said that the trans-partisan nature of opposition to Bernanke, with a conservative Republican and a socialist independent uniting to block the appointment, shows the intensity of the feelings on the issue. "It's great to see everyone come together – Democrats, Republicans, progressives and libertarians, against this Federal Reserve, which is not federal, and not a reserve, just a group printing money and giving it to their buddies," the source said…."
