<h2>Walther p99 magazines</h2>
<p>Recommended on another site was heavy lube and working the action dry cycle&#8230;I kid you not&#8230;<a href="http://www.grips4guns.com/pistol_mags/walther/p99.html">Walther p99 magazine</a> times: I did it to mine&#8230;quite a little workout&#8230;wear a glove.</p>
<p>Then fire a couple of <a href="http://www.grips4guns.com/pistol_mags/walther/p99.html">Walther p99 magazines </a>.</p>
<p>There&#8217;s alot of debate whether you should run only ball ammo in them.</p>
<p>Again, from elsewhere; important ammo considerations.</p>
<p>1. OAL of the round.</p>
<p>2. Shape of the round&#8230;HP must be as close to ball in shape as possible.</p>
<p>3. Feed ramp angle and polish; though this is only infrequently a problem.</p>
<p>Remington 95 gr FMJ seemed to meet approval, Winchester equivelent would most likely be fine; all else, especially anything not ball, simply must be tried out.</p>
<p>Though a good break-in is recommended before you start experimenting with the HP ammo.</p>

<h2>CZ 52 magazines </h2>
<p><a href="http://www.grips4guns.com/pistol_mags/cz75/cz52.html">CZ 52 magazines</a> , poly, 9mm. It has the cheap glow-in-the-dark night sights instead of the tritium ones, but who gives a crap.</p>
<p>It&#8217;s got the rounded trigger that I prefer instead of the one that&#8217;s almost straight, and the trigger pull is smooooth!</p>
<p>I picked it up from Academy for $487 out the door. The website stated they only come with 10-round magazines. The guy I called to make sure they had them in stock said they only come with 10-round magazines. The card next to the display pistol said it only came with 10-round magazines. The only one they had left was the display pistol, so I snagged it.</p>
<p>Opened it up just now after getting home. Came with a snap-cap with about a dozen soft green primer things, a trigger lock (I&#8217;d throw it away if I weren&#8217;t a packrat by nature; the hazards of having Depression survivors for grandparents. ), a magazine loader, and&#8230; two 16-round <a href="http://www.grips4guns.com/pistol_mags/cz75/cz52.html">CZ 52 magazine</a>.</p>
<p>HA! Suck on that, Academy!</p>
<p>She&#8217;s beautiful! This pistol has so much character, I&#8217;ve GOT to give it a name! Now I gotta look up Czech names online for this thing.</p>
<p>No range report any time soon, as I&#8217;m an impoverished college student. I only was able to afford the pistol thanks to a donation by a VERY generous and wonderful friend. I wasn&#8217;t able to afford a box of ammo, however.</p>
<p>Finally! A REAL handgun (no, my <a href="http://www.grips4guns.com/pistol_mags/cz75/cz52.html">CZ 52 magazines</a> and my Mauser c96 Bolo I&#8217;m currently restoring don&#8217;t count. ), and one I&#8217;ve been wanting to get for the last three- no, nearly four now- years.</p>
<p>My day is made.</p>

<h1>Leather Holsters</h1>
<p>Go to your local auto parts store and purchase a bottle of Lexol <a href="http://www.holsters4guns.com/holsters/category/Leather_Holsters.html">leather</a> conditioner (16 oz. ~ $10). I&#8217;ve used this for years on everything from car seat leather, baseball gloves, leather belts, leather jackets, shoes and yes <a href="http://www.holsters4guns.com/holsters/category/Leather_Holsters.html">leather holsters</a>. It really works magic on leather, making the leather feel broken-in and <a href="http://www.mannyusa.com/links/holsters.html">gun holsters</a>.</p>
<p>O NOT use anything on your <a href="http://www.parts4sks.com/links/holsters.html">holster</a> unless it&#8217;s recommended by the maker otherwise you&#8217;ll wind up with a useless piece of leather. Wrap the unloaded gun in a plastic baggie or wax paper (wax side out) and leave it overnight, if still tight leave it in for another 4-6 hours. You can also just sit in front of the TV and just draw your weapon in/out till it loosens up. Just make absolutely sur that the gun is unloaded and keep the ammo/mag in another room if other folks/kids are around.</p>

<h1><a href="http://www.ahuntingworld.com/hunts/canada.htm">moose   hunting</a></h1>
<p>Most hunts start and end at one of our 4   			base camps, which are equipped with log structures and/or heated   			cabins. From there, hunters leave with a string of horses or are   			dropped at a remote lake via floatplane, depending on the animal and   			area being hunted. Most of the hunts are spot and stalk. Calling is   			also utilized during the <a href="moose hunting">moose</a> rut. We conduct hunts which produce   			results. Hunter success includes hard work on everyone&#8217;s part. Our   			equipment is some of the best in the industry. Most of our hunts are   			challenging and rewarding, for those who want a fair chase hunt in   			some of the most scenic and wild country found anywhere in the   			world. All hunts start/end in the town of Smithers, BC (daily   			flights from Vancouver, BC to Smithers). The scenic floatplane   			(Turbine Otter, Beaver, Wilga or Cessna 185) flight to camp takes   			approximately 2 hours each way.</p>

<p><a href="http://medpundit.blogspot.com/2007/10/magnet-free-europe.html" >Magnet-Free Europe</a><br /><b>Magnet-Free Europe:</b> For some reason, the EU was proposing severe restrictions on the use of MRI scans, a proposal which has been <a href="http://www.mtbeurope.info/news/2007/710034.htm">halted</a>- for now. Here&#8217;s the <a href="http://www.mtbeurope.info/news/2007/709029.htm">reasoning</a> behind the original restrictions:</p>
<p><i>The Directive was drafted by DG Employment, with the aim of minimising workers’ exposure to electromagnetic fields (EMF). Currently eight million MRI patient examinations per year are carried out in Europe, said Professor Dag Rune Olsen, who works in experimental radiation therapy at the Norwegian Radiation Hospital, Oslo, Norway, and is chairman of the physics committee of the European Society for Therapeutic Radiology and Oncology (ESTRO). “But these are likely to have to stop, since the Directive sets limits to occupational radiation exposure which will mean that anyone working or moving near MRI equipment will breach them, thus making it possible for them to sue their employers. Even those maintaining or servicing the equipment may be affected,” he said.</i></p>
<p>Radiation exposure? MRI&#8217;s don&#8217;t emit <a href="http://www.bmj.com/cgi/content/full/327/7411/371/TBL1">radiation</a>, they detect the <a href="http://health.howstuffworks.com/mri6.htm">magnetic spin of atoms</a>. The EU is worried that workers will be mesmerized by the MRI&#8217;s. <a href="http://junkfoodscience.blogspot.com/2007/09/w-is-for-wifi-woo.html">Sally Szwarc</a> has more.</p>
<p><a href="http://medpundit.blogspot.com/2007/09/universal-pander-theres-nothing-like.html" >Universal Pander</a><br /><b>The Universal Pander:</b> There&#8217;s nothing like a presidential election to bring out the healthcare crisis. And, since the presidential primary process is stretching into a two year long spectacle, there&#8217;s been no shortage of proposals on how to fix our current system.  Recently, <a href="http://www.boston.com/news/globe/editorial_opinion/oped/articles/2007/08/29/kucinich_is_right_on_healthcare/">Dennis Kucinich</a> pointed out that his ideas are the closest thing to what the American people want:</p>
<p><i>In a CNN poll this spring, 64 percent of respondents said the government should &#8220;provide a national insurance program for all Americans, even if this would require higher taxes,&#8221; and 73 percent approve of higher taxes to insure children under 18. Those results track New York Times and Gallup polls last year, in which about two-thirds of respondents said it is the federal government&#8217;s responsibility to guarantee health coverage to all Americans.</p>
<p>Such polls allow Kucinich to joke that, far from being in the loony left, &#8220;I&#8217;m in the center. Everyone else is to the right of me.&#8221; </i></p>
<p> Ask the American public a different question about the healthcare system, and you&#8217;ll get a <a href="http://www.harrisinteractive.com/news/allnewsbydate.asp?NewsID=781">different answer</a>:</p>
<p><i>For the fifth time in six years, Harris Interactive has asked the insured public to rate their own insurance plans. Two thirds of them continue to give their plans an A or a B, with only 10% giving them a D or an F. Substantial but not overwhelming majorities continue to say that they would recommend their own health plans to family members who are basically healthy (76%) or who have a serious or chronic illness (68%).</i></p>
<p>Health insurance companies are like politicians. We dislike all but our own.  We should be careful what we wish for, however, for it won&#8217;t just be our own politicians designing a nationalized health insurance plan; it will be all the others that we dislike,  including politicians  who  believe <a href="http://www.nytimes.com/2007/08/12/washington/12health.html?ex=1344571200&#038;en=fe9dafa70e56ccd4&#038;ei=5088">hospital pork is a public service</a>, that <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070902/ap_on_el_pr/edwards_2">healthcare and personal autonomy are mutually exclusive</a>, and that <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070918/ap_on_el_pr/clinton_ap_interview_6">the right to earn a living takes second place to health insurance</a>.</p>
<p>What are people really wishing for when they say they wish for a single nationalized health insurance program?  Security. Our current employer-provided system means that most of us are just a pink slip away from losing our insurance coverage.  It also means that,  deprived of the  bargaining power of large corporations and unions, the self-employed are left with fewer choices and higher premiums.  Handing over the whole kit and kaboodle to the government is a seductively simple solution. But it would also be a very expensive solution.  </p>
<p>The British are often held up as the standard to which we should aspire. But we don&#8217;t live under a British style of government. We live under a government that&#8217;s truly government of the people, by the people, for the people. And what the people want, the people get. Witness the  <a href="http://www.parkinsonsaction.org/content/view/302/309/">influence</a> of <a href="http://www.thebreastcaresite.com/eendcom/USAmoena/Homepage.nsf/1989cec9be30ee68c12569ff0036969d/b51d9ddd452e429705256ac1007602db?OpenDocument">disease activism</a> even now on disease specific government funding and treatment mandates. In England, the government <a href="http://www.cancerscreening.nhs.uk/bowel/">only pays</a> for colonoscopies to check for colon cancer if there are symptoms suggestive of cancer or a family history of colon cancer. In the United States, the <a href="http://www.medicare.gov/health/coloncancer.asp">Medicare pays</a> for a colonoscopy every ten years for everyone over 50, regardless of symptoms or risk. So do many insurance companies., sometimes <a href="http://www.ncsl.org/programs/health/colonrectal.htm">if not by choice, by mandate</a>. In England, mammograms are <a href="http://www.cancerscreening.nhs.uk/breastscreen/index.html">only covered</a> for women between the ages of 50 and 70, and then only every three years. In the United States, <a href="http://www.medicare.gov/health/mammography.asp">we</a> <a href="http://www.ncsl.org/programs/health/brescerv.htm">pay</a>  for mammograms beginning at age 40, <i>yearly</i>, and with no upper age limit. We just don&#8217;t have the <a href="http://www.fightcolorectalcancer.org/advocacy/2007/07/congressman_boren_dok_announce.php">heart</a> for rationing that they have in other countries.</p>
<p>A common theme in politician crafted health care schemes is that by paying for prevention we will save money, and thus be able to offer limitless healthcare services without bankrupting the country. Both <a href="http://www.hillaryclinton.com/feature/healthcareplan/americanhealthchoicesplan.pdf">Hillary Clinton</a> and <a href="http://news.yahoo.com/s/ap/20070902/ap_on_el_pr/edwards_2">John Edwards</a> have explicitly emphasized the importance of preventive healthcare in their plans- even to the point of patient-directed mandates in the case of Edwards.  But if preventive services save money and lives, then why is the  United Kingdom, which offers less expansive preventive services than the United States,  both <a href="http://jama.ama-assn.org/cgi/content/short/295/17/2037">healthier and cheaper</a>? (Hint: Dead people neither spend health insurance dollars nor complain about their health.)</p>
<p>Don&#8217;t be fooled by the promises of health and wealth to be found in government-provided, or even mandated, health insurance coverage.  It may bring you health, but it will be at a very steep price - both in money and liberty.</p>

<p><a href="http://medpundit.blogspot.com/2007/11/word-about-mrsa.html" >A Word About MRSA</a><br /><b>A Word About MRSA:</b> I&#8217;ve been fielding a lot of doorknob questions about MRSA lately. (Doorknob questions= questions thrown out just as my hand reaches the doorknob to leave the room.) Little wonder. It&#8217;s been in the <a href="http://www.time.com/time/magazine/article/0,9171,1680134,00.html">news</a> again and again, and has even prompted the <a href="http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/localnews/2003989830_webmrsa02m.html">closing of schools</a> and <a href="http://www.peninsuladailynews.com/article/20071102/NEWS/711020307">cancelling of football games</a>. Despite <a href="http://thenewsdispatch.com/main.asp?SectionID=50&#038;SubSectionID=72&#038;ArticleID=6086&#038;TM=73032.72">what some editorialists say</a>, it is being framed as a <a href="http://toledoblade.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=/20071102/NEWS04/711020359">threat to our children</a>. Here&#8217;s an example of the <a href="http://www.ohio.com/news/top_stories/10990791.html">typical coverage</a>: </p>
<p><i>A 16-year-old Springfield High School junior remained in serious condition Friday in the intensive-care unit of Akron Children&#8217;s Hospital with a drug-resistant staph infection.  Michael Forester of Lakemore was hospitalized Oct. 24 and was to undergo surgery Friday, said his mother, Mary Baxter.  &#8220;The more prayers I can get, the better,&#8221; Baxter said Friday at the hospital.  </p>
<p>On Wednesday, Springfield School Superintendent William Stauffer, in a letter sent to parents, acknowledged that a student had become ill and was admitted to the hospital.  The superintendent said rumors that the student has a contagious disease that puts other students at risk and that the high school has an ongoing problem with staph infections are not true.  Stauffer could not be reached for comment Friday.</i></p>
<p>What is this MRSA? A better question might be &#8220;What is SA&#8221;? The &#8220;SA&#8221; in MRSA is <a href="http://www.textbookofbacteriology.net/staph.html">Staphylococcus aureus</a>, a bacteria that resides in our nasal passages and skin. That is its habitat. Normally, it causes us no problem, but if conditions are right, it can make us quite ill. It&#8217;s often the culprit behind boils and styes and cellulitis and urinary tract infections. It can also cause more serious infections such as pneumonia (as in the case of the young man in the linked to article above), meningitis, sepsis, endocartditis, and osteomyelitis. It is one of the most common causes of sepsis. Penicillin conquered Staph infections for a little while, but the bacteria acquired resistance within a few years of the antibiotic&#8217;s introduction. When penicillin became widely used in the community, the population of Staph aureus living in noses and on skin shifted toward those containing an enzyme that could cut the <a href="http://www.antibioresistance.be/betalactamases.html">betalactam ring</a> on penicillin, rendering it ineffective.  New antibiotics were developed to get around this. One of those antibiotics was <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methicillin">methicillin</a>, which brings us to the &#8220;MR&#8221; part of &#8220;MRSA&#8221;. </p>
<p>We don&#8217;t use methicillin any longer. We use drugs like <a href="http://www.druglib.com/druginfo/augmentin/">Augmentin</a> instead. But, when we say that a Staph aureus infection is &#8220;methicillin resistant&#8221; we mean that it&#8217;s resistant to all penicillins, even those that were developed to get around the betalactam-eating defenses of the Staph aureus population. This doesn&#8217;t mean that it&#8217;s resistant to all antibiotics, however, just the ones that we typically use for a Staph infections. In the hospital, we often use <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vancomycin">vancomycin</a> for MRSA infections. In the outpatient setting, we use drugs like <a href="http://micro.magnet.fsu.edu/pharmaceuticals/pages/bactrim.html">Bactrim</a> and <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clindamycin">clindamycin</a>. In most cases, the infections respond nicely to these drugs. There is, however, concern that the bacteria may one day develop resistance to these, too, as we use them more to treat the growing resistant population of Staph. </p>
<p>So here are the take home points about MRSA:</p>
<p>1) It isn&#8217;t running amok in our schools like the <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Blob">blob</a> or <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Attack_of_the_Killer_Tomatoes">killer tomatoes</a>. It&#8217;s living on our skin and nasal passages just as it always has before it developed resistance to penicillin and its cousins.</p>
<p>2) One of the reasons bacteria <a href="http://www.fda.gov/Fdac/features/795_antibio.html">acquire resistance</a> is because we expose them to antibiotics when we don&#8217;t need to. Don&#8217;t insist on an antibiotic for every runny nose, even if the snot is yellow. And don&#8217;t insist on one of the special antibiotics for MRSA for every pimple or pustule or red scratch. If we overuse our remaining effective antibiotics, we&#8217;ll only end up with a population of Staph aureus that is resistant to those, too.</p>
<p>3) Don&#8217;t freak out if you or your child develops a skin infection. Most staph infections are easily treatable. Even most MRSA infections are easily treatable.</p>
<p>4) When you read the newspaper, always remember that they lean to the dramatic in all things. It makes for more entertaining reading.</p>
