TK CUSTOM specializes in S&W, Ruger, Taurus (some) Chiappa Rhino, & Schofield .45 acp conversions. Revolver accessories for the competition shooter and sportsman. Our products include a complete line of Full Moonclips, Moonclip Stripper Tools, Moonclip Loading & Unloading Tools, a Moonclip Saver Tool and other items that may be of interest to revolver shooters'.
A Full Moonclip is circular piece of spring steel or stainless steel designed to hold a full cylinder of ammunition for a revolver together as a unit. Therefore, instead of loading one round at a time or using a speedloader, with a Full Moonclip, a full cylinder of ammunition can be loaded and the fired cases are all extracted together as a unit. Thus expediting the revolver loading and unloading process. Unlike a speedloader, a Full Moonclip remains in the revolver during firing. Loading and unloading tools for the Full Moonclips are recommended to assist the shooter with these administrative functions.
Shop time for machining cylinders is now 7-10
Business days.
Plus transportation both ways
Special Announcement:
TK Custom has been known for state-of-the-art S&W competition revolver action work in the past and has been absent from the business for many years.TK Custom is now returning to the business doing the S&W Ultimate Master Action Jobs ONLY! No Standard Actions jobs at this time, just the Ultimate Master Action Job.

Clips and modified cylinder
S&W Model 66 Revolver Example
Full Moonclip Conversion
Machined cylinders for use of Moonclips can still be used with or without Moonclips, just as the revolver was designed & manufactured by S&W and others.
Example of the costs to machine your cylinder.
Full Moonclips are faster to use than a speedloader. Jerry Miculek, the world's best and fastest revolver shooter, has demonstrated the ability to fire six shots from a S&W Model 625 revolver in .45 ACP, reload, and fire six more shots into the 6x11-inch center scoring zone of an IPSC target at fifteen feet in under three seconds, including reaction time to the start signal. This feat was possible by using Full Moonclips to allow quick and reliable ejection of the fired rounds, and a quick reload of all six chambers at once.
Pro Tips from Jerry Miculek Reloading.
The goal of TK CUSTOM is to have the highest quality / performance of our products, quick shipping, unprecedented customer service that exceeds customer expectations of satisfaction for S&W, Ruger & Taurus Revolver accessories and our commitment to maintain a competitive offering of products. All items are in stock ready for immediate shipment, unless otherwise noted.

What Haley Wornette has been reading on her travels
Before leaving for New York, I loaded up my iPhone and tote bag with some truly excellent articles, books, and zines. They really came in handy when I found myself lost on the G train, stuck in the back of a cab, or standing on a street corner trying to look busy when I was actually just way too early for a meeting. Here are a few of my favourite fashion-related reads; enjoy!
When We Were "Seventeen": A History In 47 Covers
Jane Hu traces the history of Seventeen from the initial editor-in-chief, Helen Valentine, to its current, shall we say, flawed state. I was fascinated to discover that Seventeen began with such a noble goal—to talk with teenagers, not at them—and was inspired by Valentine's original directive to readers: "Say you agree with SEVENTEEN or disagree violently, say we're tops, say we're terrible, say anything you please—but say it!"
Portrait of the Artist as a Postman
Kermit Oliver is the main character in this real life fashion fairy tale from Texas Monthly's October issue. "There once was a postman who designed scarves for Hermès," Jason Sheeler begins, a seemingly simple premise to this article. Oliver sorts mail by night and paints impossibly beautiful Hermès scarves by day, but it's not just the odd juxtaposition of his two careers that make this article so compelling. Sheeler tells us a story about art, race, class, family, and genius, and on the day that I read it, I became one of those people in New York who cry in public.
Original Plumbing
On Saturday, the Wornettes and I visited the New York Art Book Fair to see their legendary zine tent. We spent some time speaking with the people behind Original Plumbing, an amazing zine that describes itself as "the premier print magazine dedicated to the sexuality and culture of FTM trans." I picked up the Fashion Issue for the WORN office and highly recommend it.

I-3-6-1.Notifying Claimant of Granting Request for Review
Last Update: 9/08/05 (Transmittal I-3-36)
A. General
When the Appeals Council grants a request for review, it notifies the claimant and representative, if any, of the action before it issues its disposition.
The Appeals Council does not send prior notice of granting review when:
it issues a fully favorable decision, because it would serve no useful purpose and would delay payment of benefits; or
it issues a remand order.
For cases in the 11th Circuit, it is the policy of the Appeals Council to send a propose-to-remand letter before remanding unappealed issues ruled on favorably by the Administrative Law Judge (ALJ).
B. Grant Review Notices When Prior Notice Is Required
When the Appeals Council grants review to issue a less than fully favorable decision, the analyst will prepare for the Council's consideration a grant review notice to the claimant with a copy to the representative advising them of the Council's proposed findings.
The grant review notice provides the claimant a period of 30 days within which to submit any additional evidence or further written statement. The notice also advises that the claimant may request an appearance before the Appeals Council or, when non-procedural evidence is being proffered, may request that the case be remanded to an Administrative Law Judge. (See the Appeals Text Guide.)
C. Disclosure of Evidence
The claimant has the right to see and examine the evidence that the Appeals Council proposes to admit into the record. Before the Council makes any additional evidence part of the record, the Council must disclose the evidence to the claimant, allow the claimant the opportunity to examine the evidence, comment on it, and refute it by submitting other evidence.
The Appeals Council may proffer evidence directly to an unrepresented claimant unless the evidence includes a medical report containing language which may be offensive or detrimental to the claimant's health. If an analyst believes that a medical report contains such language, the analyst must discuss the matter with the branch chief.
See the Appeals Text Guide for appropriate language and stored paragraphs for use with Appeals Council grant review, own motion and reopening notices.
D. Typing and Proofreading
To prepare the case for release to the Appeals Council, the analyst must:
Prepare the grant review notice;
Proofread the typed document, and, if it is accurate;
Forward the file with the grant review notice and analysis to the Appeals Council for consideration.

THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF VARIABLE STAR OBSERVERS 25 Birch Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA INTERNET: email@example.com Tel. 617-354-0484 Fax 617-354-0665 SPECIAL AAVSO PHOTOELECTRIC PHOTOMETRY ALERT NOTICE #2 (May 24, 2004) REQUEST TO MONITOR 2248+16 IM PEGASI IN SUPPORT OF GRAVITY PROBE B SATELLITE In September 2001 we sent a special Photoelectric Photometry Alert Notice to request PEP observers' assistance in monitoring the 5th-magnitude star IM Peg in support of the NASA satellite Gravity Probe-B (GP-B) that was going to be launched in 2002. That Alert Notice described the project in detail; it is enclosed for your reference with the paper-mailing version of this Alert Notice, or included at the end of the emailed version. The monitoring in advance of the launch was necessary in order to learn about IM Peg, the guide star chosen for GP-B. Your observations of IM Peg since September 2001 have been very valuable to the astronomers working on the project. Gravity Probe-B was delayed in its launch until last month, when it was successfully launched and placed in orbit on April 20, 2004. Everything is going very well to date (for more information on GP-B and the mission status, see the excellent website: http://einstein.stanford.edu/), and the science phase of the mission will begin in a few weeks. It is now extremely important to have regular PEP observations of IM Peg through the end of the observing season, and our continued assistance has been requested by the astronomers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics. Particularly from July through mid-September, robotic observations are not likely to be made, so your monitoring is even more crucial during that interval. PEP observers worldwide are encouraged to observe IM Peg, as we would like to have multi-longitude observations, to have 24-hour coverage to detect any flare activity, IM Peg should be observed once or twice each night with a V filter, and the standard procedures used for our other PEP program stars should be followed. If you are able to make more than one observation a night, please try to space them as widely as possible in time. Please report your observations to Phil Manker (firstname.lastname@example.com), chair of the AAVSO Photoelectric Photometry Committee, and to AAVSO Headquarters (email@example.com). Accompanying is an AAVSO Photoelectric Photometry chart for IM Peg prepared by C. Scovil. Please use this chart to make your V observations. (The chart may also be downloaded from our website (http://www.aavso.org). Our colleagues have also requested that IM Peg be observed with B, R, and I filters. We will inform you soon about the comparison and check stars to use when making B, R, and I observations. Your ongoing observations of IM Peg are essential to the success of this extremely interesting mission, so please try to observe IM Peg on as many nights as possible over the coming observing season. We look forward to receiving your valuable observations. Many thanks! Good Observing! Phil Manker John Percy Elizabeth Waagen PEP Chair PEP Newsletter Editor Interim Director ++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++ THE AMERICAN ASSOCIATION OF VARIABLE STAR OBSERVERS 25 Birch Street, Cambridge, MA 02138 USA INTERNET: email@example.com Tel. 617-354-0484 Fax 617-354-0665 SPECIAL AAVSO PHOTOELECTRIC PHOTOMETRY ALERT NOTICE (September 20, 2001) REQUEST TO MONITOR 2248+16 IM PEGASI IN SUPPORT OF GRAVITY PROBE B SATELLITE Gravity Probe B (GP-B) will test two predictions of general relativity by measuring the precessions of gyroscopes in an earth-orbiting spacecraft with respect to an external frame of reference. That frame will be defined by the guide star IM Peg = HR 8703. GP-B needs a guide star whose proper motion can be measured with better than 0.15 milliarcsecond/year accuracy with respect to an extragalactic frame which is defined by pointlike sources called quasars. These are radio sources whose positions are stable to the necessary accuracy. The guide star must also be a nearly pointlike radio source whose position can be measured to milliarcsecond accuracy. For more information about GP-B, see the web site: http://einstein.stanford.edu/ The radio results may be found at: http://aries.phys.yorku.ca/~bartel/GPBresults.html IM Peg = HR 8703 is an RS CVn star, a K2 giant star which shows a high level of "activity". This activity includes compact radio emission, whose position can be compared, using radio interferometers, with the extragalactic reference frame. IM Peg is a 24.65-day spectroscopic binary. Radio interferometers can actually detect the motion of the radio star in its orbit! The most recent optical study of IM Peg is by Berdyugina et al. Astron. Astrophys., 360, 272 (2000), which presents surface images of the star. The period of spot rotation is 24.73 days. IM Peg varies in brightness because of the rotation of spotted regions into and out of our line of sight. This changing brightness, relative to the non-variable binary companion or other stars or nebulosity within the 140" diameter field of view of the spacecraft's guide telescope, could possibly bias the "average" proper motion of the star. In addition, the observation of any relatively rare (perhaps once per year), short-lived, bright flares on the active giant, as have been seen on other RS CVn binaries, would also be quite interesting. Astronomers at the Harvard-Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics have requested our assistance in providing close monitoring of IM Peg. What is needed from our photoelectric photometry observers is monitoring of IM Peg regularly. GP-B is not planned for launch until 2002, but the monitoring should begin as soon as possible to test the procedure. The star will also be monitored with a robotic telescope, but this is in operation for only part of the year. Usually no robotic observations are made from late January until early May, or from early July until mid-September of each year. Observations during these intervals would be especially valuable. The variable, comparison, and check stars to be used are: Variable = IM Peg: HR 8703: HD 216489: HIP 112997: Range = 5.60-5.85 V (GCVS), SpT = K1-2II-III RA 22h 53m 02.2s (2000), Dec +16 degrees 50' 28" (2000) Comp = HD 216635: HIP 113105: V = 6.60, B-V = +1.001, SpT = G8III RA 22h 54m 18s (2000), Dec +17 degrees 47' 42" (2000) Check = HR 8788: HD 218235: HIP 114081: V = 6.16, B-V = +0.482, SpT = F6V RA 23h 06m 18s (2000), Dec +18 degrees 31' 03" (2000) IM Peg should be observed once or twice each night, with a V filter, and standard procedures used for our other PEP program stars should be followed. Please report your observations both to Howard Landis (email@example.com), the present chair, and to Phil Manker (email@example.com), the future chair of the AAVSO Photoelectric Photometry Committee. Accompanying is an AAVSO Photoelectric Photometry chart for IM Peg prepared by C. Scovil. Please use this chart to make your V observations. (The chart may also be downloaded from our website (http://www.aavso.org) or from our FTP site (18.104.22.168) ftp://ftp.aavso.org/alerts/alertpep). Our colleagues have also requested that IM Peg be observed with B, R, and I filters. Please let us know if you have any of these filters and would be able to observe IM Peg with them. If you do not have B, R, or I filters and would like to make multicolor observations, we may be able to obtain financial support so that we can purchase and distribute these filters on longterm loan from the AAVSO. If you are interested in participating in this very important project, whether observing in V, or BVRI, please fill out the form below and return it to AAVSO Headquarters. Please note that this Special PEP Alert Notice was distributed via postal mail only (not via email), but has been posted on the AAVSO website (http://www.aavso.org, under Alert Notices).

Vikings receiver Percy Harvin ruled out for game vs. Packers
Minnesota Vikings wide receiver Percy Harvin will miss a third consecutive game as he was ruled him out for Sunday's game against the Green Bay Packers, the team announced.
Harvin has missed the last two games with a sprained left ankle and will not travel to Green Bay with the team.
"The ability to push off and change direction seems to be giving him a little bit of trouble," Vikings coach Leslie Frazier said this week.
Frazier said Harvin had no real setbacks but he hasn't made the improvement that the team had hoped for. Harvin has played in nine games this season, catching 62 passes for 677 yards and three touchdowns.
WR Percy Harvin will be downgraded to "out" and will not travel with team to Green Bay #Vikings—

A question that I see a lot on various fashions forums is: "Am I too short to wear a maxi dress?"
The most logical answer would be to say, Yes. We've always been told we shouldn't wear long pieces or they will overwhelm the body. But my answer? No!
With the proper fit, the maxi dress on a petite figure can be incredibly elongating and slimming. The best example? Nicole Richie. In the summer, she is frequently pictured in a maxi dress looking absolutely fabulous. Many people forget that she is only 5'1". Here are some of my favorites (pictures taken from NicoleRichieFashion blog--not sure where she got the photos from). I love the first one by Diane von Furstenberg:
Eva Longoria who is 5'2" in T-bags (image from Fabsugar):
The key is to keep fit of the top of the dress close to the body (at least to below the bust), and the bottom not too "poofy"; that is, reasonably close to the body without being tight, but also with not an overwhelming amount of material. You also don't want the print to be overly large or you will look swallowed up. Finally, beware of the length. You don't want the dress too long or you will undoubtedly fall flat on your face, but not so short that you will see your ankles. And no, you do not have to wear heels! Flat thong sandals are just fine. =)
Here are a few pictures of me in one of my own maxis. Sorry, bad photos:
As you can see, this one is a little long on me. I *do* trip! But, I always trip all over myself no matter what I'm wearing =/. Don't give up if the first few maxis you try on aren't a good fit. Keep trying! You *will* find one you love. As always, the key is fit.

- Why I'm for boycott
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 3:48 pm
"but I've had plenty of time in this/i> life to make up my mind about Zionism."
But not enough to learn to close my italics tags. Really shows you something, donnit? Yup, it was that easy.
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 3:45 pm
"But I would be willing to consider B.D.S. efforts that are targeted against those who are complicit in specific Israeli policies."
See how nicely this all works! Since I, as many will when they find out more, consider Zionism the "specific Israeli policies" Israelis are "complicit" in, I won't buy anything even remotely connected with the place. In fact, I've got a great idea. I think everybody should do that, and then we'll leave the Israelis to sort it out amongst themselves. Call me when you think you have a product I'll like, and I'll be glad to consider it, if for no other reason than tribal unity.
"So great that Phil has had this epiphany the last 10 years and has done so much.../...Christians"
I agree with you Kathleen, I'll take it, and like it, whenever, wherever and just about however it occurs. And you know what just hit me? I thought my anti-Zionism was pretty solid, and complete. But I've just spent the last , oh, about two years, maybe three, being informed by people about the I-P issues and situation, people whose epiphanies may have come about much, much later than mine. (Although I usually have cacophonies) But their resources and commitment were greater, and they've been informing me. Some of them, possibly weren't even born when I had my views formed. I don't think seniority is all that relevant.
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 3:28 pm
"Is it about punishment? Or is it about peace and justice?"
Gee Hophmi, I thought you were a lawyer or something? Justice means that sometimes the guilty are punished. Peace comes from applying that justice, possibly even punishment, to the right people, for the right reasons.
"It's counter productive"
You mean, if we buy less from Israel/Zionism, we'll actually be buying more? Interesting point of view. Does it involve theosophy, or the fourth dimension?
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 3:21 pm
"and redeeming that note"
Could you think of a more insulting way of putting it? Why don't we just throw a fistful of dollars out the window for the Palestinians to scramble after?
"this phase can last up to 5 years and should bankrupt israel and force it to accept one man one vote which will bring about the "mandela"moment"
Good! I'd like that, but satisfying my personal desire for poetic justice isn't the job of world politics. If you want to go an easier route, let us know. It's up to you. It's been, oh, roughly sixty years, and nobody lives forever, I may be reincarnated as a worm, but I've had plenty of time in this/i> life to make up my mind about Zionism.
"return of refugees with a recognized voice of their own."
Just a quibble, Citizen. But hows about "with the same rights as anybody else in the region" (or whatever organising principle, state, country)?
"With a recognised voice of their own" sounds an awful lot (to me, but Jews have been tricked by this before, so we're sensitive) to "separate but equal".
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 3:06 pm
Excatly, Citizen! Don't think of it as "extortion" Stogumber, just think of it as the most gentle persuasion which could possibly work. We don't live forever. And gee, doesn't "extortion" imply that the demand is criminal? Does BDS demand that Israel break laws, or follow them? And "extortion", if I'm not mistaken (always a possibility worth investigating) also implies that the demand is excessive. I don't see how any of that could apply to the boycott of the Zionist regime in Palestine.
"Whatever you want, from a single egg produced in a settlement all the way to everything"
What is he supposed to do, say he'll come beat them up if their boycott is insufficient? I think quite a bit of Phil too, but he's probably better off not ordering people around.
"It is the mindset of an entire people."
I think in any regime like Israel's, an awful lot of the people in Israel, even ostensible Zionists, are better classed as victims, rather than worrying about the "mindset of an entire people" if you talk about "the mindset of an entire people" than Zionists can talk about the "Palestinian culture of hate", can't they.
Seafoid, when I was a child, I of course, had a kid's understanding of Zionism, which was trivial. But when I reached (as such I did) man's estate (or at least man's "shoddy suburb") I found nothing except political absurdity, religious perversion, cultural tragedy and crime, crime, crime in it. YMMV of course, but it never had any attraction for me.
And I think the price to get out of it may be much more than Newclench anticipates shelling out. Of course, I think he expects to borrow on speculative equity. He may be in for a rude surprise.
Mooser February 6, 2013 at 2:38 pm
"There are choices we must make if we believe in dialogue."
And which choices, Yonah, are you prepared to make? As far as I can see, you haven't (I don't know if you can, and don't want to be unfair) even made the choice to speak like an adult, or be honest.
"Our future is mortgaged to the Palestinians at this point...."
You know what, Newclench? I've been in that position before. I bet if we do a walk-away, leave the keys in the door, and leave, the Palestinians won't come after us for the mortgage payments. They will probably just re-posses the place, call in one of those disaster-cleaning firms, and call it a wash.
Cayuse I'm not sure we can afford the payments. (or can we, uh.... get them down?
"A program for ensuring a desirable Jewish future begins with ending the oppression of Palestinians and transforming the relationship. Our future is mortgaged to the Palestinians at this point, and redeeming that note is the Jewish task of the 21st Century.":
You are right, Newclench! I am going to call a bankruptcy lawyer (and start salting away assets) today. Do you have any idea what we owe? Do you figure we can pay it, or do you have a plan to get the US to do it?
Or you figure it's just matter of chump change, and a slightly more generous attitude?
When I'm feeling bad (given my eensy-beensy purchasing power) that I can't boycott Zionism any more than I have for the last 40 years, I cheer myself up by reminding myself "I'm a Jewish American, not an Americanish Jew"
It helps, some.
I swore before I was twenty I would never ever set foot in the place, like I could afford to go there.
"It is really safe here for Jews."
As far as I know Pabelmont, the US government has no idea what religion I am, and better still, doesn't care. I'm no safer than anybody else, as far as religion goes. I am safe here because religion is not a part of my political identity, my relation with the state.
That is the principle which keeps us safe.

"Justice and equal law should always be the goal. That said, Israel (and every other country) is primarily invested in, and has obligations towards, its own citizenry. So for example, extending the right to non-citizen Palestinians makes no sense at all."

"Ashkenazi Jews Are Probably Not Descended From The Khazars."
Yeah, Obsila, I never liked that Khazar idea, thought it was dumb. So with no Khazars, we're back to being basically the descendants of Palestinians!! Works for me, and it should make the issues easier to solve. You know, tribal unity.

And a pretty good guide for recognising anti-Semitism (and dealing with it) when it comes from ostensibly 'anti-Zionist' sources.

"The 1st and 14th amendments to our own constitution prohibit the government from establishing a Jewish state anywhere in our own country."
But what about that long, long time before America was 'stated' from coast to coast?

Funny, we never even tried. I wonder why that was, given what drives us....

After all, when has Mondonut ever categorically said he won't do that?
In fact, I'd like to give Monbdonut the chance right now, to tell us how eager he is to see the Zionist regime, (by negotiations in good faith, of course, under the administration of the UN, which made it) become a democratic state for all it's residents, a state which will give justice and eqaual rule of law to all.

" just like the old days. you're old enough to remember"
I'm sure it was great, but not me, marcb, I went, or rather, my parents took me to a few movies when I was a kid, but I didn't like them. (Live theater, yes. but sit there and watch shadows on a wall? No.) I didn't continue to go, it never became a habit. I gave up watching TV (true story) after I tried to punch a kid in 6th grade, like they do on TV. Instead of a satisfying crack, and he drops like he's pole-axed, I rip out the sleeve of my button-down shirt, missed him entirely, and then got a bloody nose from the excitement. Oh yes, and suspended! TV lies, and that was my last "Man from U.N.C.L.E schtick".
Besides, you are shortening your life virtually by watching all the TV and movies. It makes the time pass quickly. It's not like we have all that much. By being so all-fired bored I get full value out of every minute. Nobody charges admission for that!
We do have a small TV, my wife likes the occasional game (if available broadcast) or "Jeannie" or "Bewitched" re-run. But as soon as those big flat screens came out, I made a hard and fast rule: in my house, I have the biggest head and the loudest voice, except, of course, for my wife, who has a whim of iron.
I am so glad I will never see this film. Frankly, I have not concluded whether extensive viewing of TV and films is safe, or is a hazard to health. So in the meantime, I'm playing it safe. Of course, watching the earth die isn't fun, but nobody charges admission.

Mooser February 2, 2013 at 10:33 pm
Thanks for your attention. I don't know that it's all that significant, but it just seems to be such an unlikely intersection of organisations. And it sure shows (unless every one of those orgs are all strictly Jewish public health advocates) the many facets those organisations show or the varying ways they are perceived. And there's also lists, another list of individuals (which I wouldn't even have a clue about, but you might) and corporations.
Or maybe I just interest easy.
"Also I take your point re Bull Connor, but I think it helps Americans understand apartheid over there, in American terms"
Absolutely, but you know me, I had to elaborate a bit on it. I'm a sucker for that kind of thing. I always want to gild the lolly.
"the significance of the list of anti-gun organizations."
First off, are you accepting the NRA's locution "anti-gun organisations" as a valid descriptor? But let it pass, like the pachyderm wearing my pajamas, it's irrelevant.
I found it very interesting that (whoops, hold on, I better check the link, who knows what I did) the American Jewish Committee, American Jewish Congress, Anti-Defamation League, B`nai B`rith,
Central Conference of American Rabbis, Jewish Labor Committee, National Council of Jewish Women, and the Union of American Hebrew Congregations, are all listed as "anti-gun" by the NRA. Now I realise I mashed up a lot of organisations there, some of which may be purely devoted to American civics issues and public health, but I just find it interesting (okay, it's really, really, dull up here!) that Zionist organisations can be perceived as "anti-gun". (And I don't know where every one of those "anti-gun" stands on Zionism)
Mostly, I was surprised that the "Jewish" organisations listed had any point of interection with the NRA. But I'll give those NRA guys this: The Jewish dominance of the media and influential position in American society doesn't scare them!
"Are you saying that the anti-Israel lobby isn't nearly as widespread in the U.S.?"
Sorry, lost me there, did you mistype, Phil? But if there's an "anti-Israel lobby" in the US I'd like to hear more about it!
I don't want to draw this OT, there was no comments yet, and I just thought it was interesting to think about those orgs. intersecting. And anbody critical of Israel has to look for allies wherever they can....although it's hard to imagine ads for Bushmasters on Mondo.
Phil (please excuse my unwarranted presumption) this must be a distressing and disheartening subject to write about. For a little light yet related comic relief, go here, a TPM article, and don't neglect to look at the lists attached. It may not get you ROTF, but it's good.
And BTW, didn't Israel surpass Bull Connor a long time ago, as far as methods go? Not that it isn't a valid and good comparison, of course.
But as I remember, Bull stuck mainly to his own jurisdiction

"WE think of our misdeeds – YOU come up with something great German."
Klaus, there is no denying the introspective, self critical morality of Germany. Remember how the awareness of their misdeeds kept them out of WW1? And in the late 1930's and 1940's Germany (no doubt with an acute awareness of their misdeeds!) steadfastly refused to get involved in any of the totalitarianism, genocide, or aggression which was going on all around them.

Wow, It's like a wish fulfillment dream or something. That Blue Box is so big! I mean, look, rifling the Blue Box was hardly worth it. Couple bucks, maybe. Only good part was tittering when my Mom noticed the box was now empty and said "Oh, I guess Elijah came and got it!" Anyway, chump-change, mostly, not even enough for a fix. Jeez, you ever been dope-sick on the High Holy Days? It's a drag.
But that blue Box up there
"The Star of David is … "
The perfect design for a set of "mag" (cast magnesium-alloy) wheels! Klaus, you've headed me towards fame and fortune. I'll have 'em cast
by a contract manufacturer in the Far East, triple the price, and sell 'em in Tel Aviv. By that sign, I will conquer the after-markets!
Very surpirsed, what with the great German history of magnesium-alloy casting (VW engine/trans cases, for instance) you haven't thought of this first.

"…and the hay was carried away by the wind before the big, bad wolf had managed to blow. The other little pigs, though, were celebrating because they thought the BBW couldn't blow."
Sardelapasti, I'm not talking about James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps, I was thinking more of Shirley Hanna-King.
I was just trying to say that after a big electoral victory like Obama ("He's a poster boy for affirmative action writ large and in every nuance.") just had, the President can usually get his Cabinet nominees confirmed.
I see it like you do, sardelapasti. They huffed, and puffed, but they can't blow Obama's house down. It's a brick house, mighty, mighty. Hagel will be confirmed.

I do not know if Hophmi has committed any actual infractions, I simply used his name as an example. Nasty, sure, but why not? And everybody already knows what I think of eagles (fish-stealing alopeciac! Stole my spot as national animal!) and ilk. Multi-tined slackers.
"You reveal yourself too clearly by some of the stands you take. It ain't pretty."
It's like talking to somebody out of the 18th or 19th Century, isn't it.
But Zionists are desperate to deny the changes in the relationship of people's (including "the Jews") and pretend we are still in the 18th Century. I'll have more to say about this, soon. But since very few people ever closely examine the circumstances under which they live, they just live their lives, and since Zionists, and the Jewish religious establishment they have suborned (I frickin hope so, but the truth is probably that they jumped right into their arms, and said "Kiss me, my demon lover") has a great deal invested in obscuring the truth about Jews from them.
What is incredible, if we're are suppose to be so frickin smart, that we didn't see right through it.
But the truth is, when they start arresting Zionists in the US who have broken laws, I very much doubt, no matter what the social consequences, that they will arrest me for Hophmi's infractions (just as an example) because I am also Jewish.
So I'm not invested at all in the Zionist's crimes, not contracted with them, and neither is any other Jew who has not committed them. But wow, do they want to avoid that point! "If Zionism fails, we all go down to the boxcars together" says Hophmi, and his ilk (you know what I think of ilk!) 'so you better help us out, or it'll be bad for all of us."
But what Hophmi (or his nasty pet ilk) wants to obscure is that unlike former times in other places, there is ,legally, no "the Jews" in the US. Oh, there are lots of Jews, but not any "the Jews". I would no more expect to suffer for the Zionist's crimes than I would expect to go to jail because a Jewish guy robbed a bank somewhere. Of course, if Hostage says different, I guess maybe I am too optimistic.
But since such an effort has been made by interested people to confuse this issue, by mis-using the history of persecution the Jews have been subject to, and since people tend to accept what is implied if the don't look for themselves, I think we have a mess.
Anyway, I'll have more to say (try and stop me!) when I think it out.
My God on a Pogo stick, you would think that people who have been persecuted so much would make a fetish of knowing what their relationship with the State and with other citizens is, as far as their religion goes!
But I'm just musing, really, I haven't found the way to properly explicate or name the phobia the Zionists take advantage of. Oh, I understand why it is there, but you would think....no, that would require real tribal unity, so forget it.

Oy Mark Spitz! Be still, my heart. Wait a minute, not that still. Okay, just a slight arythmia. It'll pass. Anyway, what myriad host of deflowerings (on cruddy, cruddy, couches, perhaps?) may have been made more bearable by staring up at that shaved chest with those five Gold Medals? That poster was everywhere.
Mooser February 1, 2013 at 3:53 pm
"I'm not aware of any Jewish American athlete, who is not also a citizen of Israel, who has been banned from playing in Muslim or Arab States because of his or her Jewishness"
Hophmi, as Max Smart: "Never banned a Jew, huh? Well, would you believe...they called them names! No? How about, they went back in the locker and talked bad about his defense work? What about a dirty look? Well, it could have happened!"
My goodness, Hophmi, whatever it is you're supposed to be doing, and whoever it is you do it for, I hope they pay you well, and you have good health insurance. I know your job would kill me.
Mooser February 1, 2013 at 1:50 pm
"Soccer fans chanting racist slogans? I guess this has only ever happened in Israel."
Why is it happening at all in Israel? Do you Zionist (and you don't know how I grudge you those first four letters, I've got much better quadraliterals for you) punks and hoodlums ever get tired of embarrassing the entire Jewish world? No, let me guess, anything you can do to make Jews look worse pays off for you.
This how you repay the world which gave you a state, right where you wanted it, to the disadvantage of others? Oh yeah, see preceding sentence. I guess I forgot.
Woody, I forget, are you "mediocre" or "outrageous"? Did that ever get settled?

The media advisory is different from the press release in a few ways. Media advisories should be sent to news outlets about a week before your event. They contain only the basic information that you'll cover in your press release: what, why, when and where?
It's useful to think of the media advisory as an invitation for the media to attend your event, whereas the press release does more to offer a story idea. Send your press release to media outlets a few weeks before your event, then follow-up with a media advisory.
If you're inviting a TV station to cover your event, sending a media advisory a few days beforehand will probably be more effective than sending a press release weeks earlier. Send both, but be aware that TV news reporters work on much faster timetables, so they may not make a decision to cover your event until a day beforehand, or even the day of.

Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a debilitating, life threatening illness. PH is often misdiagnosed, causing many people to lose valuable treatment time and leading to a poor prognosis. It can affect small children and the elderly, but most often it strikes women in the prime of their lives. Currently there is no cure for PH, but many recent research advances provide hope. PH is a rare illness that currently impacts approximately 100,000 Americans. [Include a sentence about local patients].
Proceeds from [Insert the name of your event] will aid the Pulmonary Hypertension Association's (PHA) efforts to provide patient support, expand medical research and disseminate the latest information to the PH community.

Best place in my opinion – Ok so it has the best steak, best bread, best ceasar slad, baked potatos. I always get the steak here since its so good. The waiters and waitresses are really friendly. The bloomin onion though kinda changed. its not as good as it use to be but still really good
Australian tchotchkes and brews give this quintessentially American restaurant a distinctive Down Under flavor. – In Short
Boomerangs, Aussie flags, kangaroo portraits and faux aboriginal art honor the homeland's wilderness, but Outback delivers a polished version of rusticity with varnished blond-wood booths with matching wainscoting and casually uniformed waitstaff. Besides more than a half-dozen cuts of steak, diners can pick from large-portioned entrees like ribs, chops and shrimp or chicken "on the barbie." The Bloomin' Onion, a large onion dipped in batter and deep-fried, is an appetizer with a following.
No Rules – This Outback is always packed, even on weekdays! In between 2 major interstates and a few dozen hotels, it is a big stop for a lot of travelers. Even though it is busy, the place is still run smoothly and you are treated like you could stay all night if you wanted to. The servers move to your level to talk and take your order and are very knowledgable about the menu. The food is always cooked the way you want it. My fav is the Alice Springs Chicken and the Victoria's Filet. The new crab cakes are to die for as well! The bar is always open for great drinks and martini's if you just want to hang out and chat. Come in near opening time if you don't want to wait a half hour or more for seating!

It's just football, as wildly entertaining as it can possibly be and fantastic TV on Monday night.
Amazingly, life would go on, somewhat to the surprise of ESPN's breathless anchor Stuart Scott.
Scott asked ESPN columnist Rick Reilly, given all the years that he has covered sports, if this was the most unbelievable he'd seen.
Reilly ripped Scott's heart out, saying it was probably in his top 20, noting it hadn't decided a Super Bowl or changed the course of history.
In fact, you can argue the worst thing about the night was ESPN going with the traditional on-field interview with rookie Seattle quarterback Russell Wilson.
Who wants to hear from a guy programmed to say what a rookie is supposed to say when the most improbable, shocking finish in recent memory has just taken place?
I couldn't believe an ESPN producer wasn't yelling into reporter Lisa Salters' ear and telling her enough already with the endless questions to Wilson and instead show everyone at home the full picture reaction in the stadium.
Why not soak in the glorious chaos?
And then when it's time for the post-game show, ESPN goes to highlights of the game as if there is any highlight to top the last play. We have to wait to hear from Dilfer and Young and then they bring Wilson back on set to talk some more.
Some folks lost money in Las Vegas and now have a gambling story to tell the rest of their lives. Some fantasy football owner might have won his week thanks to Golden Tate. Sports talk radio folks will never have a better Monday.
It was the perfect finish to a wonderfully entertaining weekend.

The PPD skin test is a method used to diagnose silent (latent) tuberculosis
(TB) infection. PPD stands for purified protein derivative.
Purified protein derivative standard; TB skin test; Tuberculin skin test; Mantoux test
You will need two visits to your doctor's office for this test.
At the first visit, the health care provider will clean an area of your skin. You will get a small shot that contains PPD. The needle is gently placed under the top layer of skin, causing a bump (welt) to form. This usually goes away in a few hours.
After 48-72 hours, you must return to your doctor's office. The doctor or nurse will check the area to see if you have had a strong reaction to the test.
There is no special preparation for this test.
Tell your health care provider if you have ever had a positive PPD skin test. If so, you should not have a repeat PPD test, except under unusual circumstances.
Tell your doctor if you have a medical condition or if you take certain drugs, such as steroids, that can affect your immune system. These situations may lead to inaccurate test results.
You will feel a brief sting as a needle is inserted just below the skin surface.
This test is done to find out if you have ever come in contact with the bacteria that causes TB.
TB is an easily spread (contagious) disease. It most often affects the lungs. The bacteria can remain inactive (dormant) in the lungs for many years. This situation is called latent TB.
Most people in the United States who are infected with the bacteria do not have signs or symptoms of active TB.
You are most likely to need this test if you:
A negative reaction usually means you have never been infected with the bacteria that cause TB.
A negative reaction means the skin where you received the PPD test is not swollen, or the swelling is very small. This measurement is different for children, people with HIV, and other high risk groups.
The PPD skin test is not perfect. Up to 1 in 5 people infected with the bacteria that cause TB may not have a reaction. Also, diseases or medicines that weaken the immune system may cause a false-negative result.
An abnormal (positive) result means you have been infected with the bacteria that cause TB. You may need treatment to lower the risk of the disease coming back (reactivation of the disease).
It is important to note that test results depend on the person being tested.
A small reaction (5 mm of firm swelling at the site) is considered to be positive in people:
Larger reactions (greater than or equal to 10 mm) are considered positive in:
In people with no known risks of TB, 15 mm or more of firm swelling at the site indicates a positive reaction.
There is a very small risk of severe redness and swelling of the arm in people who have had a previous positive PPD test and who have the test again. There have also been a few cases of this reaction in people who have not been tested before.
A positive skin test does not always mean that a person has active TB. More tests must be done to check whether there is active disease.
Many people who were born outside the United States may have had a vaccine called BCG, which can lead to a false-positive test result. Most experts say that a past BCG vaccination should not change the PPD result when the test is done in people with an increased risk of TB infection or disease.
