A torque multiplying wrench having a jaw at one end and an adaptor at the other end for receiving torque input. The wrench employs a rotatable shaft extending the length of the wrench with bevel gears at the proximate end to engage the input adaptor and a bevel gear arrangement at the distal end to transfer torque from the shaft to the jaw which is toothed. The bevel gear arrangement at the distal end of the wrench employs a pair of shafts engaged at one end to said rotatable shaft through bevel gears. The shafts fan out to opposite sides of the jaw and employ worm gears to transmit the output torque to the jaw. The worm gears are especially designed to increase the number of teeth engaged with the jaw in order to reduce the load on individual teeth.

This invention relates to a master tool and more particularly to a torque multiplying wrench small enough to be hand held and capable of providing large increases in torque with minimum effort by the user.
Many presently available wrenches for providing high torque lack the ability to induce turning force in the plane of the nut or bolt. Furthermore, many of them suffer from one or more major limitations such as being very heavy and requiring bulky stabilizing reaction arms. Another drawback of existing torque multipliers is their relatively high cost and in many cases the need to have more than one person apply the tool.
Furthermore, new bolting technology is rapidly replacing riveting and welding methods in a variety of construction and engineering industries. Although the evolution of this technology has been rapid, the corresponding development of supporting tools has lagged far behind.
In my U.S. Pat. No. 4,506,567 issued on Mar. 26, 1985 I show a maximum capability wrench which was designed as a hand tool for mechanics, hobbyists, "do-it-yourselfers", and others, to remove, for example a stubborn nut, or to reach in places where the work to be performed does not permit rotation of the wrench itself. While the patented tool has proven to be useful under the particular set of circumstances described, it has turned out not to be adequate for the major applications described above. For these applications, the use of the chain drive produces an inadequate amount of torque multiplication. In addition, no provision is made to deal with the large reaction forces. Also, the patented tool does not permit repairs to be readily made by the user, a feature which might not be important for a small, inexpensive tool useful for relatively light applications. For the kinds of applications concerned about herein, the ability to make repairs in the field is an important advantage.
In my U.S. Pat. No. 4,928,558 issued on May 29, 1990, the problems associated with devices in use up to now for torque multiplication are largely overcome in a tool small and light enough to be hand held.
However, one of the concerns which appears in connection with the use of such a small tool capable of producing such large torque multiplication is the ability of the materials employed to transfer such large loads without excessive wear or outright failure in such circumstances.
In this invention, improvements have been made to permit larger torques and greater torque ratios to be accommodated in a hand held wrench with fewer parts than is possible in the invention described and claimed in the 558 patent while at the same time spreading the load at the end of the wrench to reduce the risk of failure of any of the parts.
In accordance with a preferred embodiment of this invention there is provided a hand held, torque mulitiplying wrench employing concave profiled or hour glass type helical gears in a configuration which makes it possible to produce higher torque loads in a given wrench size and to disassemble the wrench for convenient storage and transportation, while permitting the length of the wrench or the shape of the wrench to be conveniently varied so as to be used in more hard to reach locations than has been heretofor possible. For a given torque ratio, the wrench incorporating the principles of this invention has fewer parts than previously thought to be possible.
It is thus a principal object of this invention to provide a hand held, torque multiplying wrench with increased torque carrying capacity and improved transportability.

FIG. 21 is a schematic illustration of a wrench with a modified structure.
Referring to FIGS. 1-4, wrench 10 consists of a elongated housing 12 containing at the proximal end the input drive assembly 14 and at the distal end the output drive assembly 16.
Housing 12 consists of an upper portion 18 and a lower portion 22 held together by a number of screws 24. Wrench 10 is made in sections which will be described later.
Input drive assembly 14 consists of a male drive member 26 passing through an opening in housing 12 and mounted on a gear 28 within housing 12. Gear 28 is engaged with the outer teeth of a bevel gear 32 mounted on a shaft 34. The bevel teeth of gear 32 are engaged with a bevel gear 36 mounted on and driving a shaft 38, as also seen in FIG. 2a.
Output drive assembly 16 consists of a toothed closed jaw 42 mounted in the jaw opening 44 of housing 12. If desired, an open jaw 45 as shown in FIG. 2b may be utilized.
Engaged with jaw 42 within housing 12 are a pair of so-called hour glass helical worm gears 46 and 48 engaged in symmetrical fashion with the gear teeth on the outside of jaw 42, as seen also in FIG. 5.
Worm gear 46 is mounted on one end of a shaft 52 on the other end of which is mounted a bevel gear 54. Worm gear 48 is mounted on one end of a shaft 56 the other end of which is mounted a bevel gear 58. Both bevel gears 54 and 58 are engaged with and driven by bevel gears 62 and 64, as also seen in FIG. 4. Bevel gears 62 and 64 are driven by a bevel gear 66 which is mounted on one end of a shaft 68.
It will be noted that housing 12 is divided at 72 into parts 12a and 12b and that shafts 38 and with each other. The free end of shaft 38 is provided with a square male member 74 while the free end of shaft 68 is provided with a female square receptacle or socket 76 to
receive male member 74 so that when the two parts 12a and 12b of housing 12 are connected together as shown in FIG. 1, shaft 38 when driven in the manner to be described, will drive shaft 68. The two ends of housing 12 at 72 are provided with prongs 78 and 82, and receptacles 78a and 82a to receive the prongs to maintain both parts 12a and 12b of housing 12 in alignment when in use. Spring loaded snaps (not shown) as understood in the art may be employed to keep both parts of housing 12 together when in normal use, but at the same time rendering it easy to pull the parts apart. Plastic or rubber coverings 83a and 83b may be utilized for convenience of handling.
In the arrangement just described, it can be seen that extensions such as extension 12c shown in FIG. 2c may be inserted between parts 12a and 12b of housing 12 to extend the reach of wrench 10, and also to take the wrench apart for ease of storage and transportability.
Helical worm gears 46 and 48 are designed with a annular concave profile to increase the number of teeth which are engaged at any one time with the gear teeth on jaw 42. The normal or usual worm gear with a straight profile usually involves two teeth in engagement at any one time. With an annular, concave profile, the so-called hour glass configuration, as seen in FIGS. 2 and 5, it is possible to at least double the number of teeth engaged between the two gears. In view of the fact that very high torques are capable of being delivered by the present invention, the use of at least two worm gears (46 and 48) to deliver the final torque output to jaw 42, and the doubling of the number of teeth through which the torque is transmitted to jaw 42, it is possible to sustain such large loads without the necessity of increasing the size of the components, and thus the size of wrench 10, to where it becomes unmanageable by a single person.
It will be seen from FIG. 5 as well as FIG. 2 that helical worm gear 46 is designed to have the largest tooth 84 closest to shaft 52 whereas the tooth 86 farthest from shaft 52 is significantly smaller in diameter. The reason for this configuration is to keep the distal end of wrench 10 surrounding jaw 42 as small in diameter as is possible. It is seen from FIG. 2 that enlarging the distal tooth on each gear 46 and 48 would cause the size of wrench 10 at this end to be enlarged, something to be avoided or minimized in a wrench designed to be small and light enough to be hand held while at the same time being capable of producing large torques at the output end
In addition, it has been found that end teeth 84 and 86 should be slightly thicker than the remaining teeth because these teeth tend to bear a larger proportion of the load.
In order to be able to adapt jaw 42 or 45 for use with any size nut, the socket adaptor 88 shown in FIG. 6 would be employed. Adaptor 88 is provided with a socket 89 on the underside while on the top it is provided with a male nut head 92 with opening 94 passing all the way through adaptor 88, so that the bolt on which the nut to be turned can pass all the way through if need be. Male nut head 92 fits into the opening of jaw 42 and 45, and a variety of adaptors 88 would be provided with properly sized nut sockets on the underside to accomodate any size nut to be engaged. Adaptor 88 may be split as illustrated so that it can be placed over a bolt whose ends are not accessible to engage a nut on the bolt.
The gear ratios selected for wrench 10 are designed to obtain a maximum torque multiplication, that is, to maximize the multiplication of the torque applied to male input member 26 and the proximate end of wrench 10.
In the use of wrench 10, it would come disassembled, with parts 12a and 12b, separately stored in a case or carried. They would be mated together as shown in FIG. 2, and jaw 42 or 45 placed on the nut to be rotated A conventional socket wrench (not shown) would then be employed to engage male member 26 on the proximate end of wrench 10 and cause its rotation. A much higher torque is then transmitted to jaw 42 or 45 and socket adaptor 88 than can be obtained by the socket wrench engaged with male member 26.
To improve the strength of jaw 45 shown in FIG. 2b, the arrangement illustrated in FIG. 7 may be employed. Jaw assembly 102 consists of a jaw 104 (to replace jaw 42) with teeth 106 on the outside to be driven by a helical gear as described in connection with FIGS. 1-6, with a mouth 108 to accomodate jaw insert 110. The inside of jaw 104 is provided with protruding embedded segments 112, 114 and 116 protruding as illustrated and a hook member 118 with a hook 120 pivoted at 122.
Jaw insert 110 is provided on the outside with cavities 124, 126, and 128 to accomodate protruding segments 112, 114, and 116, respectively. An additional slot 132 is provided to accomodate hook 120. When insert 110 is urged into opening 108 of jaw 104, hook member 118 will be pivoted clockwise so that hook 120 will drop into slot 132 to prevent insert 110 from dropping out by gravity. Insert 110 can readily be removed by hand.
This construction enhances the strength of the jaw of the tool and reduces flexing which could break or jam the tool. Segments 112, 114 and 116 help to distribute the load which ordinarily tends to be concentrated at the ends of each straight surface.
Other arrangements for insuring that the nut will not fall out of the jaw insert in situations where operators are working in tight areas or with greasy hands are shown in FIGS. 7a and 7b. In FIG. 7a, jaw 104' is provided with a ball 104a' and a spring 104b' for this purpose. In FIG. 7b, jaw 104'' is provided with a spring 104a'' mounted at one end for this purpose.
The extension shown in FIG. 2c permits wrench 10 to be same time angle the wrench, as seen in FIGS. 8a, 8b, and 8c. In FIG. 8a, extension 12d can be employed to angle the wrench 90 degrees. In FIGS. 8b and 8c, extensions 12c and 12d can be employed to obtain other angles.
As seen in FIG. 9, the jaw end 12b' can be made as illustrated to provide angling of the jaw end.
Under some circumstances, it may be desirable to employ a single helical worm gear in order to narrow the width of the jaw of the wrench. In FIG. 10 there is illustrated such a wrench 10a with a single helical worm gear 117.
The jaw inserts may also be modified to provide a series of special functions.
For example, in FIGS. 11 and 11a is shown a jaw insert 130 provided with threaders 131 for use in threading pipes. Threaders 131 may be mounted on spring loaded assemblies 132 for insuring that contact is maintained.
In FIGS. 12 and 12a is shown a jaw insert 134 with cutters 135 for use in cutting pipes. Cutters 135 may also be spring biased to maintain contact during the cutting operations.
In FIGS. 13 and 13a is shown a jaw insert 136 for use in gripping pipes. For this purpose, the inside surface 137 is curved and offset as illustrated, and is provided with a rough surface.
For use in the present invention there may be provided a jaw insert which plugs or fits into the jaw from the top (like regular sockets fit onto a ratchet wrench) rather than slide into the jaw gear from the front as in the earlier described designs. At the same time, the jaw gear may incorporate a number of male members that fit into female members in the insert in order to increase the number of points where the load is divided.
Referring to FIG. 14, jaw 138 is provided with a plurality of upwardly extending teeth 138a adjacent jaw opening 138b.
As seen in FIGS. 15 and 16, jaw insert 139 is provided with a male section 139a which fits down into jaw opening 138b of jaw 138. Teeth 138a enter sockets 139b in jaw insert 139 which increases the size of the load which can be handled. A closed ended insert 140 with male extension 140a and sockets 140b may be used instead of insert 139, as seen in FIG. 17.
This modification allows the user to remove the tool off the insert and out of the area of operation in a situation where the operation of the tool was completed around a pipe (the nut was tightened) while the open ended insert was left in a position where the opening was not in line with the opening of the jaw of the tool as is normally needed to remove the tool and insert off the nut.
It also allows for easier and faster replacement of inserts onto the tool.
It further allows for the opening of the jaw gear to be equal to that of the opening in the housing. This allows the same size tool to operate around larger nuts, and also allows for cleaner storing and handling conditions as when the tool is in the neutral position (the opening of the gear is in line with opening of the housing) the unit will be better sealed as no teeth will be sticking out of the housing which otherwise may collect dirt and then transmit it to the rest of mechanism when the tool is in operation.
A jaw insert incorporating anti-fatigue features is shown in FIGS. 18 and 19.
In FIG. 18, jaw insert 141 is provided with a slit 141a incorporating a spring 141b. With this design, support to the insert against flexing is provided by the housing rather than the jaw itself. This allows for a more durable and lasting operation, and lower costs in the production of the jaw. Spring 141c mounted on the inside of the jaw mouth eliminates the chances of the insert slipping off the tool when the tool is withdrawn off the nut while the insert 141 is in the neutral position (the opening is in line with the opening of the housing) and falling off.
In FIG. 19, jaw insert 142 with slit 142a and spring 142b is provided with a ball 142c mounted on the end of a spring 142d for retaining insert 142 on the nut (not shown) being turned.
The principles of this invention can be applied to a hand held cutting or grinding tool for use in the field where it is not possible or feasible to take the part to be cut or ground to a machine shape. As seen in FIG. 20, tool 150 is composed of a housing 152 with a hand grip 154 containing a toothed jaw 156 in which is embedded a cutting elements 158. Drive for jaw 156 is from a motor 162 by way of a gear 164 driving shafts 166 and 168 on which are mounted worms 166a and 168a at one end to engage gear 164.
At the other ends of shafts 166 and 168 are worm gears 166b and 168b which engage the gear teeth of jaw 156. An on-off switch 172 controls the operation of tool 150.
A variety of multiplier connections are possible with this invention. As seen in FIG. 21, wrench 200 shows a drive shaft 210 with input from gear 212-, helical- gear 214 connected to a worm 216 which engages a worm gear 218. The latter drives shaft 210. Through an assembly of worms and gears 222, 224 and 226, shaft 210 is able to drive helical gears 228 and 232 which engages jaw 234 providing additional torque multiplication. This is a very compact arrangement which permits much higher torque ratios heretofore found possible.
In the arrangements just described, it is possible to deliver high torques using a smaller, and more lightweight and compact wrench than has been possible up to now. Such a wrench is also much cheaper to construct and is less likely to fail due to the high torques developed at the distal end of the wrench.
While only certain preferred embodiments of this invention have been described, it is understood that many variation of the invention are possible without departing from the principles of the invention as defined in the claims which follow.

If your talking wilson barrels thats something but wilson combat meh. Decent but overpriced.
My preference in ar15 is built myself from handpicked parts or bravo company. Ive got some noveske in my precision ar15 but for high end you can roll a better one cheaper than a name brand
"Gun control: The theory that a woman found dead in an alley, raped and strangled with her panty hose, is somehow morally superior to a woman explaining to police how her attacker got that fatal bullet wound." L. Neil Smith
The problem with being stupid is you cannot simply decide to stop doing dumb things...
Of those, it's not even close - you have to go with Noveske.
The biggest issue with assembling an AR isn't so much getting the parts together right - it's getting the right parts together. You'll remember the quality of a gun long after you forget how much you paid for it.
US Army 1966-69, VFW Life Member, Retired Geek
If you are going to spend that much get a Noveske. You can't beat the quality. Wilson Combats are real good but I don't really like Some of the things Wilson has done in the industry. I know nothing of Anderson arms
Great information so far. Here is something I should have mentioned, I also have a Sun Devil matched upper and lower that I can build my own with. So, buy a Noveske or build a custom? If I were to build a custom with the Sun Devil U&L and had about $2,000 to work with, what components would you recommend?
Depends on your end goal. Precise accurate varmint/target, service rifle, ohsht carbine, plinker, all are different builds with different source parts.
I started shooting handguns only, took a while for me to get into carbines. After shooting carbines, you never go back. I'm sure you'll see the difference the first shot you take.
I highly recommend building. Read the stickies to help you understand what you should be looking for. If you have specific questions, post them here and I'm sure you'll have us all jumping up and down with ideas for you.
I think a first build with a 16" medium contour barrel might be what you are looking for. But decide for yourself. If you already have a pair of nice receivers you can get some decent glass or optic in your $2k budget. I usually start a spreadsheet and put prices and shipping costs, and links to where I find the parts. Sometimes you will pay a little more for a part, but get to save on shipping if you order from the same source. So shop around a little. I usually like to build with a friend or two so share shipping costs.
Planning is the fun part. Take your time, prices and availabilities are a little limited right now but should be getting better and better in the next few months.
Don't forget to budget mags and ammo, and above all else, stay safe and have some fun!
Oh and btw, of the three in the OP, Noveske hands down. But also take a look at JP Enterprises, Lewis Machine and Tool, Daniel Defense, Bravo Company Manufacturing, Ranier Arms, Knights Armaments, LaRue, and I'm sure I missed a few, but you can't go wrong with any of these guys.

A new book looks at the pivotal roles played by three world leaders in defeating Soviet communism.
Pope John Paul II, Ronald Reagan and Margaret Thatcher were well known for their tenacious and principled leadership that, according to many historians, combined to help defeat Soviet communism.
But what can we learn from them today, and who are their contemporary equivalents?
Last week, I put these and other questions to John O'Sullivan, a former Thatcher advisor and author of the bestseller, "The President, the Pope, and the Prime Minister" — a book that argues the case for their role in ending the Cold War.
In Rome to launch the Italian edition of his book, he said one of their most important characteristics was that they were "messengers of hope." More than just optimistic, he said Mrs. Thatcher was someone "who recognized that an element in hope is effort" and it was necessary to embark on projects in a hopeful way. "Of course you rely on the grace of God," he said, "but you have to do something, and I think all three of them were in that frame of mind."
The alliance between Lady Thatcher, then a pro-choice Methodist, and John Paul II was by no means a foregone conclusion. President Reagan, O'Sullivan said, was responsible for bringing them together. But he added that the former British Prime Minister's views on abortion never caused her problems in her dealings with John Paul II because "she wasn't claiming to hold these views in good conscience as a Catholic." The Vatican, he said, was also "on her side" concerning other policies.
On abortion, he said she never fully accepted the pro-life argument, but rather had "conventional, middle class, Anglican views." She thought it "a bad thing but might be necessary in certain circumstances" and "didn't really like it as an issue in politics," he said.
A practicing Catholic, O'Sullivan remembered that he and others tried to maker her change her stance, telling her she could have survived easily by taking a stronger position. "But then of course she would have had to have thought seriously about this, which I don't think she ever really did until later," he said. He lamented that today "very few" European politicians will strongly defend the unborn. "It's an extraordinary thing," he said.
Fascinating observations O'Sullivan makes in his book are the role of providence and how much the three leaders held in common: No one imagined, for instance, they could reach the top yet they went on to collaborate to end the Cold War, each after surviving assassination attempts. It's well known those close encounters gave impetus to John Paul II and Ronald Reagan, who believed they'd been saved for a great purpose.
But did Margaret Thatcher feel the same way? O'Sullivan once asked her that question, to which she replied "no." "I asked her why and she said: 'Well, five people died that night, why would I be singled out? They were friends of mine,'" O'Sullivan recounted. "That was a nice human response"
"She went on to say it would be very inglorious of her to think that God was stepping in to do her a favor," he added, and attributed that attitude to her Methodist background. "But that of course is the wrong way of thinking about it — she might have been being saved for some great trial."
There's much more, so continue at the link.

"The public is never wrong. When people don't respond to what you do, they're telling you something loud and clear. You're just not listening."
"Rap is supposed to motivate, humours, address societal issues & personal feelings, and also liberate through art, not insult our women."
"Hip-hop reflects the truth, and the problem is that hip-hop exposes a lot of the negative truth that society tries to conceal. It's a platform where we could offer information, but it's also an escape."
"Hip-hop is more about attaining wealth. People respect success. They respect big. They don't even have to like your music. If you're big enough, people are drawn to you."
"Hip-hop is a voice for voiceless poor people."
"If what a man did in his life makes the blood pulse through the body of others and makes them believe deeper in something that's larger than life, then his essence, his spirit, will be immortalized by the storytellers."
In a Music Review; A Fan had this to say: I love your beat! im bouncing my head in the first 5 seconds man! this is hot, and the lyrics are poppin! I cant wait to hear this on the radio. watch out jay-z! your an inspiration to the rap world. you are on top of your instrumentals and tone, voice and pitch. your lyrics do something that a lot of rappers struggle with, they make since and they got a amazing hook and vibe. I want to get in my car and jam to this.
Being the best in Hip Hop is contagious, this is why everyone wants to be ill!
A good rhyme last forever and never dies.. True Hip Hop artists fight for this craft and never say goodbye. .

Reagan v. Founding Fathers
Another good observation from Just How Stupid Are We? Facing the Truth About the American Voter:
As John Patrick Diggins, a Reagan biographer, astutely observes, the Founding Fathers believed that "The people are the problem and the government the solution" while Reagan convinced us that the people are virtuous and that government's the problem. "It worked," Diggins notes. "Reagan never lost an election."

Risk magazine will publish its annual awards in January. Find out how to enter
In January, Risk magazine will publish its annual Risk Awards, designed to recognise best practice in the risk management and derivatives markets.
There will be 27 categories ranging from Derivatives House of the Year to Deal of the Year.
We are asking firms to make submissions in the categories for which they would like to be considered. These submissions should outline details on performance and risk management, as well as case studies on key deals over the course of 2010.
The awards will be judged by an editorial panel of senior Risk editors and staff writers. Judging criteria will include (but will not necessarily be limited to): risk management, customer service, liquidity provision and quality of post-sales service. Banks outside the top three that can demonstrate giant improvements in their derivatives/risk management practices over the year will also be considered for an award.
The deadline for submissions is 6pm Monday September 27. Follow-up interviews will take place for short-listed firms during October and November. The decisions will be made in late-November.

Another View: Israel's fate is in President Obama's hands
This represents a significant shift in their relationship. For much of the past year, Netanyahu set the agenda in talks about Iran. His ceaseless and dire warnings about Iran's deadly plans helped persuade Obama to strengthen sanctions, launch a series of expensive and possibly dangerous sabotage efforts against the nuclear program, promise repeatedly that the U.S. was ready to use force, and build an international coalition of sometimes unwilling partners to check Iran's ambitions.
Netanyahu's ephemeral power was partly due to the U.S. election calendar. Last year, he had the power to derail Obama's campaign. If Israel had struck Iran before the election in November, as Netanyahu was considering doing, the United States might have found itself in the midst of yet another Middle East war. Such a conflict, the conventional wisdom went, would not have been of great help to Obama's reelection effort.
But last September, Netanyahu gave Obama a gift. At the United Nations, Netanyahu announced that, in his considered view, the world had perhaps six to nine months more before Iran would be ready to enrich enough uranium to make a bomb. By establishing this new red line in 2013, Netanyahu allowed Obama to run for reelection without fear that the Persian Gulf would soon be catching fire. The President was thankful for the gesture. He called Netanyahu shortly after the speech to express his appreciation for the "time and space" Netanyahu's speech gave the U.S. Their relationship subsequently soured (for the fifth or sixth time) when Netanyahu's government announced plans to build new settlements in a sensitive area east of Jerusalem, but for a while, it could have been reasonably argued that the two men were getting along.
Although Netanyahu achieved much of what he wanted - he concentrated the attention of the most powerful man in the world on a rogue nuclear program that is more of a threat to Israel than to the U.S. - what he did at the U.N. was out of character for a man who believes that the state of Israel exists so that Jews will never again be dependent on outsiders for their safety.
The Israeli columnist Ari Shavit, writing in Haaretz, was brutal last week about the consequences of Netanyahu's decision to defer action. Shavit argued that Iran is moving rapidly to the point where it would be immune to the sort of one-time, pinpoint airstrike that Israel could plausibly achieve. "Israel's counter-threat is dissipating and losing its strength," he wrote. "As a result, for the first time in its history, Israel will soon have to place its fate in the hands of others. The Israelis will not decide whether to be or not to be - President Barack Obama will decide."
How did this unlikely situation come to pass? Obama and Netanyahu spent 2011 and 2012 in a staring contest, and Netanyahu blinked. He blinked because he seems to have realized the limits of Israeli independence. A core component of Israeli national-security doctrine holds that no regional adversary should be allowed to gain control of a nuclear weapon. A second component is to avoid getting on the bad side of the U.S., Israel's main benefactor and diplomatic protector. These two ideas came into conflict over the Iran nuclear issue, and the relationship with the U.S. has, at least provisionally, won out.
Obama cleverly put his thumb on the scale by dispatching American generals and intelligence officials to Israel, where they painted nightmare scenarios for their counterparts about the possible consequences of an Israeli strike. Partly as a result, Netanyahu and his former defense minister, Ehud Barak, found themselves without the support of many of their national- security officials at crucial moments.
For public consumption, of course, both American and Israeli officials say that their governments see eye-to-eye on Iran. Both Obama and Netanyahu oppose containment - the idea that the West could acquiesce to a nuclear Iran while checking its aggression - and both have threatened to use military force.
But their threat clocks aren't in sync, and Netanyahu's real worry is that Iran will use the next year or so to make the costs of a potential American strike appallingly high. Two Israeli officials, who requested anonymity to speak frankly, told me that if they were in charge of defending the Iranian nuclear program, they would spend the next year building duplicate facilities in heavily populated areas and spreading out the program in such a way as to obviate the chance that a limited American military operation would work. Many Israelis, of course, are predisposed to think that Obama's promise to stop Iran is only rhetorical. If it came time to act, they assume he would balk. And the likelihood of balking is higher, they argue, if the Iranian nuclear program becomes harder to hit.
Netanyahu will raise these concerns when he meets Obama. But unlike last year, Obama won't be facing an election. This time, he might be in a position to tell Netanyahu things he doesn't want to hear.

With kids, is entertaining guests ever stress-free?
Advice columnist Carolyn Hax on hosting guests and being a guest when kids are involved.
Syndicated columnist
Dear Carolyn
Adapted from a recent online discussion.
DEAR CAROLYN: I know a number of parents of toddlers, preschoolers and babies who travel frequently and entertain at home, and they use words like "fun" and "relaxing" to describe their experiences. I, on the other hand, end up feeling so stressed.
Entertaining at home, I'm conscious of how annoyed visitors can get sharing a dwelling with walking germ factories, having to observe nap-time quiet or curbing grown-up TV-watching. And at other people's homes I feel so drained making the best of an environment that may be far from child-friendly. What am I going to do, tell folks they can't navigate their own house?
I am so relieved when it's over. But I don't want to limit my kids' worlds by never leaving our house or inviting overnight guests. So what's the secret to these parents who travel, entertain and host with such happy abandon?
— Kids in Tow
DEAR KIDS IN TOW: I think the answer is there in your question, if you sew the pieces together into a little quilt with crusty applesauce on it.
Hosting goes well when your guests buy into the limitations (and joys) of staying among little kids. Visiting goes well when your hosts buy in to the limitations (and joys) of hosting little kids. Both go better when you're game. And it can really, cosmically suck when you've got a guest or host who thinks everything should stay the way adults like it and little kids should need only to be told "no" once.
Setting realistic expectations actually accomplishes two things: It sets your guests' expectations at a realistic level, and it also lets them know that you aren't under the illusion that everyone should be overjoyed to be around small kids. I think that wears people down faster than anything — the idea that they, your inconvenienced guests/hosts, are supposed to be just as enchanted as you are by your Pookie. Letting them know you get that can soften people toward cooperating.
As for visiting child-unfriendly places, I have basically a two-tiered suggestion: (1) When the environment is welcoming but not child-ready, BYO coping strategies: favorite foods, toys, media, safety gear (playpen, baby gates ... ). (2) When the environment is not welcoming, stay in a hotel — locale and finances permitting, of course. They're largely kid-proof, plus they allow you and your host to take a deep breath between rounds of togetherness.
When in doubt, communicate: Ask what people expect and be clear about what you provide.
Re: Kids:
I think this deserves an additional "don't judge yourself by other people." Maybe it is easy for them, or maybe they are putting up a good front. But you don't have to like it if it doesn't work for you.

Not ready for rustic? Then check out our Foothills Safari "tents". They are made to look like safari tents in Africa. Each tent cabin is fitted with two twin beds, fresh linens, a private bath, ceiling fans and central heat and air.
Want to spend the night at Fossil Rim? Want to "rough it" and don't own a tent? We offer rustic cabins with bunk beds. No heat or air conditioning, but a tent wouldn't have that either now would it?

NOTE: Bunkhouses are not available for rent during peak camp season, call to check on availability.

"The technology is borrowed from the Russian space program, where it helps astronauts strengthen their muscles after extended periods in zero- or microgravity. Zain has Level 5 cerebral palsy, which means he does not have basic muscle and motor functions such as sitting up, standing or balancing. The bungee cords were helping him to keep his balance, to give him a sense of space and movement.
"I wasn't sure how to approach this. I could hear Zain as he was undergoing therapy, so I peeked in where he was and the physiotherapists were very welcoming. They said Zain's mom was OK with this, so I just went in as soon as I got the green light. I found it very moving. I'm a parent myself and know how hard it is to bring up kids that are perfectly healthy. I can't imagine the challenges that the parents of kids with disabilities like this have to deal with every day.
"As for the photo, having access allowed me to be right there as opposed to shooting from a distance, which always is a challenge. I think it works compositionally. It's such an unusual set-up, it helps draw people into the photo.
There are a lot of lines and they all point to the subject, and then you have the two therapists who also frame it, so it really works. I think it helps the photo that he is looking away. Generally when I look at a photo, I look for that eye contact. The fact that he isn't making contact really takes you along all these lines right to the centre. It's almost like these are arrows that point you towards the suit, which is the subject of the story."
