Cylinder & Slide Extractor 1911 9mm Luger, 38 Super Series 70 Blue
Product #: 118794 Cylinder & Slide #: CS0182
Product Information
Cylinder & Slides' extractors are CNC machined from spring steel alloy as called for in the original specifications for these handguns. This alloy produces an extractor with superior wear resistance and is true spring steel. The extractors have been radiused correctly for complete reliability. The only fitting that remains is the correct tensioning of the extractor to the individual slide.
Series 70 and 80 1911 Extractors:
The difference between Series 70 and Series 80 extractors is a plunger retainer stud machined into the Series 80 extractor. This retainer stud holds the firing pin lock plunger in place on Series 80 slides. All extractors which are designed to work in a Series 80 1911 will also work in all Series 70 guns, however extractors designed for Series 70 guns lack the machined cut which allows the firing pin lock plunger to be installed and therefore can not be used in Series 80 guns.
Series 70 and 80 1911 Extractors:

Watch out for the 50,000 mile mark! by G-Jersey Shore on 09/23/2005. Trim: 2001 Toyota MR2 Spyder, Owned 4 years.
Pros: Before this week I would have agreed with everyone's opinion on the car. I loved it and had zero problems. Ran great, was fun to drive, very quick, very stylish.
Cons: Two weeks ago the catalytic converter was fried and blew all of the debris into the other Cat Converter and destroyed both including the exhaust system. $2,500 worth of parts and labor, all covered under the extended warranty I purchased when the car was bought. Two days ago the engine oil light came on and the car started pinging badly. I brought it immediately to the dealer and the entire engine was blown. Cost to replace with a new engine, $7,000. Engine was also covered under the extended warrenty I purchased.
Overall review: Watch out for the 50,000 mile mark. I hope everyone who owns the Spyder purchased the extended warranty. It would have cost me almost $10,000 out of pocket expenses to get my fairly new 2001 Spyder back up and running. Would have been a tough nut to swallow when I assumed the car, being a Toyota, would have driven for 150,000 miles with frequesnt oil changes, which I did every 3,000 miles, and scheduled maintanance. Hope your luck is better than mine. The above information that I have only owned the car for 1 year is inaccurate. I am the original owner.

Great looking site!
I'm a fan (and you should be too) because...of a holiday in Greece, a sunny terrace and my first digital recorder that brought Kind of Blue in close. I'd known the album since my teenage years but now every change was more beautiful, fresh and inventive than I had ever realised and I listened over and over and over. What an experience. It reset all my ideas about music.

I made this cake for my husband's school auction last night! The theme of the night was "Bailamos" (which is Spanish for "Let's dance!") It sold for just under $600 and fed a CROWD! It was huge...the size of my five year old daughter!! This is my biggest and toughest cake to date! I have never attempted anything like this and had no "how to" instructions, so it was a learn-on-the-fly cake! :) But, I'm happy it turned out so well, given these last few days! I'll explain at the bottom...life events always fall in weird times...when it rains it pours! But, onto the cake....
She was 15 layers of vanilla butter cake with alternating filling layers of oreo buttercream and chocolate ganache. The top torso (from the mid-boobie up) was molded rice crispy treats. I had to use 3 boxes of cereal and 3 bags of marshmallows for that 7" tall section! I'm sorry I have no progress pics (I'm kicking myself) but I had some serious back issues and just wanted to get the cake done...so, no pics. We added a whole bunch of gold disco dust to the black fondant for the bodice, so it had some glimmer to it! :) The flower was a random invention that I came up with because I wanted something funky and ruffly to go with the dress.
The board was fondant pressed with a wood grain impression mat, then scored to make the planks, then painted to look like wood.
Here are two of the sweet ladies from the table that bought the cake. It also shows how big it was...Thank you STM!!!
I'm sure I spent close to 40 hours overall working on this cake. There was so much design work done trying to figure out what type of mechanism to use, how to carve it, stack it, etc. So, needless to say, I'm glad it's over! :) Now I can get back to my family!! :) I'm glad the cake did so well at the auction and blessed Ben's school...they have been so good to us and I wanted to give back to them...so, I'm thrilled I had that opportunity!
So, onto the back story! I have to give huge props and a HUGE hug to my friend Summer Stone who saved the day! - Literally!!! I hurt my back really bad Friday afternoon. I've struggled with back issues since college and had herniated disc surgery about 12 years ago. Well, I think I herniated another disc Friday about 2pm moving the cake around. I was in so much pain I could hardly move. My husband had to come home early from work and I was crying like a baby because of the stress, the pain, and the chance that I was going let people down! I couldn't work on the cake at all the rest of the day. I had the board done, the shoes done, the flower done, the cake carved and crumb coated, but she had no clothes on! - All the final details were missing. So, I put a call out to my sweet sweet friend who's been dabbling in cakes with me and she came over at 9am Saturday morning. Her husband came too to help us roll out fondant and do what he could. I can't tell you how much that meant to me...It was amazing! Summer stayed until we finished the cake at 3:30pm! I had to rest a lot so wasn't much help, but grinded through the last few hours and we got her done. Then, the other challenge began...
My neighbors came over to help Ben move the cake into the van...we needed to get the cake downtown by 4pm! It didn't fit!!!!!!! It was 3" too tall!!!! I didn't even consider that...not for one second!! And we were left standing there dumbfounded! Then, my daughter said, "What about Summer's van?" Summer has a lowered van for her wheel chair and the cake fit in there perfectly...but then, she had to drive it downtown with my husband...nope...she couldn't go home yet! So, she drove it downtown and gave up her entire day for me and for this cake!! Summer, you are an angel and I pray the Lord blesses you a thousand fold for what you did for me and the school!!! Thank you thank you thank you!!!
Now, back to the couch...I'm so sore today and need to rest! Thanks for reading! And, if you think of Summer, say a prayer of blessing on her! :)

Enzymedica - MucoStop - 48 Capsules
Enzymedica MucoStop is a blend of proteolytic enzymes to help reduce the effects of histamine-induced inflammation. The purpose of MucoStop is to support normal mucus function while helping to speed the breakdown and removal of inappropriate mucus. Mucolase, one of the enzymes in MucoStop , is a proteolytic enzyme (breaks down protein) that has mucolytic properties, meaning it targets and hydrolyzes inappropriate or excess mucus.
MucoStop contains a blend of enzymes formulated to break down mucus and reduce histamine.
Mucus is a beneficial protein created by the body to protect vital organs and bind up pathogens for removal from the body. The purpose of MucoStop is to support normal mucus function while helping to speed the breakdown and removal of inappropriate mucus. MucoStop is a blend of proteolytic enzymes to help reduce the effects of histamine induced inflammation.
Proteolytic enzymes are enzymes that break down proteins. Not all proteases, however, can break down all proteins. For example, a protease that effectively digests food protein will not be a good protease for mucus protein. The mucus protein requires an enzyme classified as proteolytic and mucolytic.
Mucolase is a proteolytic enzyme that has mucolytic properties, meaning it targets and hydrolyzes inappropriate or excess mucus.
Because mucolase comes from the proteolytic family of enzymes it helps to reduce inflammation and support the immune system by hydrolyzing dead and damaged proteins. Mucolase may also have an effect on proteins that do not belong, such as bacterial infections or viral loads.
MucoStop contains Mucolase combined with protease and amylase, blended to assist in overcoming the symptoms often associated with sinus and chest congestion. Due to the amylase Thera-blend it may also help the body reduce histamine levels and promote antihistamine qualities, assisting with seasonal allergies.
About Enzymedica: The Enzyme Experts
Enzymedica's Mission:Enzymedica is dedicated to providing exceptional enzyme-focused supplements at the most therapeutic levels available in the natural foods industry and beyond. It is their commitment to provide unprecedented education and research that propels individuals on the path to vibrant health.
In the spring of 1998, Enzymedica was born. The role of Enzymedica is to offer the public the most effective enzyme products available. They utilize the expertise of doctors, researchers and clinicians in formulating each of their products. They are proud of what they have to offer the public, namely therapeutic enzyme supplements that have been health professional proven.
Enzymedica's entire focus and purpose is enzymes. They are the experts. Unlike most of their competitors, Enzymedica does not make vitamin supplements or herbal cleanses. All they manufacture are the highest quality, highest potency enzyme products available.
Enzymedica products are Health Professional proven. Enzymedica products contain the highest therapeutic activities available. No other company uses higher active units in a multiple enzyme line. In addition to a digestive enzyme that is on average three times stronger than their competitors, Enzymedica has a therapeutic digestive enzyme blend, a carbohydrate digestion and allergy assistance blend, a blood purifier, and a fat digestion and cardiovascular product.
Enzymedica is proud to be GMP Registered through NSF International. Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) are guidelines that provide a system of processes, procedures, and documentation to assure the product produced has the identity, strength, composition, quality, and purity that it is represented to possess.
NSF International helps protect you by certifying products and writing standards for food, water and consumer goods. As an independent, not-for-profit organization, NSF's ongoing public health commitment is to encourage everyone to live safer. The NSF GMP Registration for contract manufacturers and internal manufacturing facilities of dietary supplement companies enables contract manufacturers to become independently registered by NSF as complying with GMP requirements as listed in Section 8 of NSF/ANSI Standard 173-2006. NSF's Dietary Supplement Standard is updated to keep pace with FDA GMP regulations.
Enzymedica uses an exclusive Thera-blend process for its protease, lipase, amylase and cellulase. This means that each of these enzymes actually represents multiple strains. For example, there are actually four proteases in the Thera-blend protease. They are blended for their ability to break down numerous bonds of protein in varying pH levels. Enzymedica does this at a considerable expense. From a label description Enzymedica also sacrifices active units to provide the best blend possible. A single protease, for example, could produce more active units per milligram than a multiple protease. However, the active pH would be narrow and the number of protein bonds it could break would be limited.
Enzymedica products are 100% vegan and vegetarian. Enzymedica uses no fillers in any of its enzyme formulations.
You will no doubt notice how small the capsules are in comparison to similar products. This is a result of using concentrates with no fillers.
Research EffortsEnzymedica continues to research the therapeutic effectiveness of plant based enzymes through doctors and clinicians. Currently, the company is coordinating and funding research that is ongoing. Enzymedica has every batch third party tested. This ensures they always meet label claim.
Two capsules three times a day on an empty stomach (1 hour before or two hours after meal). More may be taken as needed.

Should You Use Cloth Diapers?
True tales from satisfied and disappointed families who've tried them.
They Worked for Us!
"They make ecological sense": Colin Beavan, a New York City dad best known for his blog noimpactman.com, switched to cloth diapers as part of his yearlong project "to attempt to live without making any net impact on the environment."
Beavan's daughter toilet trained early, and Beavan is convinced that is because of cloth diapers.
"She was more in touch with her functions," he says. "And the sooner she trained, the less resources we used."
Stephanie Butler of Newcastle, Ontario, also chose cloth diapers due to environmental concerns: She weighed the pros and cons of landfill versus water usage.
Butler refers to a 1980s study cited in a June 2006 review in the Green Guide, a publication put out by the National Geographic Society that features green living tips, product reviews, and environmental health news. The study, funded by Procter and Gamble, Pampers' parent company, found that laundering cloth diapers posed environmental concerns due to high water usage. Subsequent studies funded by environmental groups found the opposite to be true. Still, in a synthesis of cloth diaper research, the Guide does not promote cloth diapers as a clear winner when it comes to the environment. In areas plagued by drought, for example, disposables may be a better choice.
"Cloth works better for my baby's skin": But there are other factors to consider when deciding whether to make the switch. Lisa Adkins, founder of Drybees Diapers, switched to cloth when her son developed a horrible rash. Her doctor suggested eliminating chemicals from his life. Adkins gave up disposables and the rash disappeared.
Chemicals including ethylbenzene, styrene, and toluene, which have all been linked to respiratory toxicity, tributyltin, which has been shown to be extremely toxic to aquatic life, and super absorbent polymers, are all ingredients in disposable diapers, according to the Green Guide. The polymers raise concerns because they're thought to often leak out of a wet diaper, and babies can handle and ingest them.
"They make financial sense": Isadora Howard Karp, a parent in Boston, Mass, chose cloth diapers because it seemed like a natural progression of her family's values. (They also compost, recycle, and use rags in place of paper towels.) But for Howard Karp, one of the biggest perks has been financial. Karp uses inexpensive cloth diapers and says the savings has been great.
Stephanie Butler agrees. "We spent a few hundred dollars on one-size fits all diapers that lasted over four years and two kids," she says.
According to the Real Diaper Association, a nonprofit, volunteer association dedicated to cloth diaper advocacy and education, an average family spends about $1600 on two years' worth of disposable diapers. Two years' worth of cloth diapers can cost as little as $300.

Cramer Quick Take: Medidata and Marketo
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- TheStreet's Jim Cramer and "Mad Money" Research Director Nicole Urken were examing some growth stocks and how they might fit into investors' portfolios.
The first stock they looked at was Marketo (MKTO), which focuses on reaching out to potential clients via email marketing. The company is similar to ExactTarget (ET), which was just acquired by Salesforce.com (CRM).
Cramer noted that Salesforce.com currently works with Marketo, but doesn't think the companies will continue to do business together because of the acquisition.
However, there could be value there for companies such as Microsoft (MSFT) or SAP AG (SAP) that might be looking to acquire an online marketing company.Cramer said Medidata Solutions (MDSO) is a company that focuses on using the cloud to help make biotech and health care companies more efficient. Instead of having to wait days to see the results of a current test, they can now see them as it is happening. This helps dramatically improve the effectiveness and timeliness for a lot of companies. With many firms focusing on cutting costs and ratcheting up efficiency, this may be a good stock for investors to look at. -- Written by Bret Kenwell in Petoskey, Mich. Follow @traderboy23

The term "natural gas prices" is often used to refer to a number of different types of prices. Some natural gas prices refer to the point in the market where the natural gas is purchased, other prices are based on the timing of delivery and some prices refer to pricing mechanisms. These different prices include – but are not limited to – wellhead prices, spot prices, futures (NYMEX) prices, citygate prices and residential prices. It's important to be specific about the type of price under discussion and to understand the relationship among the various types.
The wellhead price is the wholesale price of natural gas at its point of production. It is not regulated and the most important factor affecting natural gas wellhead prices is the competitive marketplace. Factors that affect wellhead gas prices include the available supply of natural gas, weather, overall gas demand, the prices of competing fuels (primarily coal and oil) and competition between gas companies for the supplies.
The "city gate" is generally the point where natural gas is transferred from an interstate or intrastate pipeline to a local natural gas utility. The "city gate price" is the sales price of the natural gas at this point: the price reflects the wholesale/wellhead price as well as the cost of transporting the natural gas by pipeline to the citygate. Citygate prices can show tremendous variation between regions, often reflecting regional usage patterns, weather trends and the number of competing interstate pipelines serving each region.
The residential price is the price that customers pay for heating their homes. Residential prices include the cost of the natural gas itself, as well as a separate charge for service and delivery. The home-heating bill also often includes state and local taxes that governments add to the bill. On average, the price of the natural gas commodity comprises about two-thirds of the total home energy bill. By law, utilities may not mark-up the price of the natural gas commodity.
Most of the natural gas that utilities use during the winter heating season is contracted for under "short-term contracts" – contracts that are negotiated anywhere from one month to one year prior to physical delivery of the natural gas. An example of a typical transaction might involve a local natural gas utility agreeing to the short-term contract price and other conditions in June, with an arrangement for actual delivery by pipeline scheduled for December. Utilities enter into numerous short-term contracts with different pipeline suppliers for different delivery dates in order to ensure a reliable supply of natural gas at competitive rates for their customers.
Another type of arrangement in the natural gas market exists as the "spot market." The spot market is a source of natural gas that is needed within a matter of days rather than months. The spot market allows local natural gas utilities to respond quickly to changing weather or other market conditions. The spot market is especially sensitive to changing market conditions and spot market prices quickly respond to changes in weather or availability of supply.
A small amount of natural gas that utilities use during the winter heating season is contracted for under "long-term contracts" – contracts that are negotiated one year or more in advance of physical delivery of the natural gas.Because utilities' gas supply portfolios are diversified among spot purchases, long-term contract gas, storage gas and other sources, price spikes in one arena do not have an immediate impact on residential customers.
Local natural gas utilities often purchase natural gas during the "shoulder months" of the year, when it is traditionally at lower prices, and store the gas for later use during the winter. On average, a little less than 20 percent of the natural gas that is used by residential customers over the entire winter heating season comes from storage. However, on the peak days of the year – usually the coldest days – storage gas accounts for a much larger percentage of the natural gas flowing to customers.
Utilities may pay a pre-negotiated flat price for the natural gas they purchase under short- or long-term contract – or they may agree to a price that shifts to reflect changes in the spot, futures or even competing markets, such as heating oil. Contracts with price indexing are similar to an adjustable rate mortgage that changes as interest rates change.
The New York Mercantile Exchange (NYMEX) allows the sale of natural gas contracts for future delivery made under NYMEX rules. A natural gas futures contract typically is a financial tool used by buyers and sellers of natural gas to minimize risk. Very few natural gas transactions on the futures market involve any actual physical exchange of natural gas. Instead most natural gas futures contracts are liquidated by offsetting an obligation to sell natural gas with an obligation to buy natural gas. The delivery site for futures contracts is the Henry Hub, an interconnection of seven interstate and three intrastate pipelines in Erath, Louisiana. Most natural gas utilities do not participate in the futures market, but it is a robust market for natural gas marketers and promotes much-needed liquidity in the market.
The natural gas price customers see on their bills – usually expressed in units as "therms" or in CCFs (hundreds of cubic feet) – is the same price the utility paid to purchase the natural gas. Like FedEx, utilities earn their income from delivery services, which appear as a separate line-item on the customer's bill. Because the price to purchase the therms or cubic feet of natural gas changes frequently, state regulators have instituted a "purchased gas adjustment" process to allow natural gas utilities to pass along those price changes periodically. Some states require monthly purchased gas adjustment or "cost of gas adjustment" filings. Others are quarterly or based on a six-month average. The more frequent the adjustment, the sooner residential prices will reflect the actual upward or downward movements of the price paid by the utility for the gas it delivers.

BOISE -- The driver of a mini-van crashed into a Boise barber shop this morning while several people were inside. Fortunately no one was hurt in the incident.
It happened at 11:40 a.m. at the Uptown Barber Salon at 6605 W. Ustick Road.
Allan Humphries was inside the shop reading a newspaper and waiting his turn to get a haircut. He says the barber noticed a vehicle going too fast on the snow-covered parking lot approaching the front of the shop.
"I look up and I saw the car come into the parking space, continue through the parking space up onto the sidewalk and smashed right through the wall into the shop," said Humphries.
Humphries said there was glass and wood everywhere, but luckily no one was injured. The driver then backed up and parked his vehicle. He appeared distraught according to Humphries, and didn't say much other than to tell the barber he would make restitution for the damages.
Humphries said the man had a son getting a haircut at the shop, had some words with the barber, got in his vehicle and left before police arrived. The barber wanted the man to wait for police.
Our photographer was able to get surveillance video of the accident from a nearby business, Buckhorn Gun & Pawn. The video shows the mini-van coming into the parking lot, turning into the parking space and suddenly lurching into the building. It also shows the mini-van leaving very soon after the accident.
There was significant damage to the building. Boise Police are investigating this incident but say no citations have been issued yet.
Humphries left the shop saying he did not get a haircut.

10th Global Forum on Humanitarian Medicine in Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery:
Disparities in Resources, Education and Sustainability:
A Discussion of Possible Solutions.
We are delighted to be hosting the 10th Global Forum on Humanitarian Medicine in Cardiology and Cardiac Surgery October 17-18, 2014 in the "Birthplace of the Blues and the Home of Rock 'n' Roll", Memphis, Tennessee. We will focus this year's Global Forum on the issues of the delivery of assistance to areas of conflict, and regions of profound poverty. Since the pivotal revelation that a great disparity existed in the care of those throughout most of the world what impact have we all had on improving this dismal situation and exactly how do we approach building solutions. Why are there still great disparities within countries in infrastructure and delivery of services and what more can we do to overcome these issues? How have we changed the landscape with the implementation of international databases and nurse empowerment? How do we provide education and what measures do we have that our models and implementation are effective?
We have developed a stimulating program to discuss some of the issues that remain in the equalization of cardiac care throughout the less fortunate parts of the world and hope that you will join us to work towards viable solutions. A diverse faculty of invited speakers will provide opening talks for each session. We are sure that many of you have significant contributions to make in the 9 sessions that have been identified for the 10th Global Forum. The sessions for the forum are: Regions of Conflict or Revolutionary Change, Hispaniola- Island of Contrasts, Scope of the Problem in 2014, Building Solutions, International Databases-Are they Tools for Progress?, Nursing Team Development/Empowerment as Tools for Program Growth, Disparity of Healthcare Resources with Countries/Regions, The Zen of Fishing-How do you Teach and Measure your Effectiveness?
To maximize your opportunities to network with other participants we have decided to include continental breakfast (Memphis style) daily. Afternoon coffee and tea breaks will be highlighted with wine selections on one day and a special Bacardi "Mojito Break" the other. An evening mixer will be held on Friday evening and of course a welcome reception for those arriving on Thursday evening.
Come and join us in Memphis for this unique event, enjoy Beale Street, Memphis barbeque and take time to see the National Civil Rights Museum while gaining insight into the problems that remain for those of us trying to improve the care of those with heart disease around the world.

PHOTOS: Is stocking the new planking?
Move over, planking. Adios, owling. Look out, leisure diving. Here comes stocking.
Thanks to novelty tumblr Stocking Is The New Planking, we are now consumed by photos of people who are mimicking stock photos. Yes, that's right– photos of people who want to appear exactly the same as people in other photos.
We are haunted by the word "why." Why are people doing this– what is the point to it all? However, more pressing is the question: Why do we keep looking at it? Why does stocking make us chuckle aloud?
We may never know.
Just as amusing as the two photos side by side, are the captions that go along with them.
"Disheveled groggy guy with fake sleepy gaze lies around in bed."
"Though uncertain of decision to be photographed on toilet, young man in red sneakers reads document."
"By holding water bottle and yoga mat, model couple radiates health and wellness."
Anyone who has ever had to search through stock images can appreciate these satirical little blurbs. That being said, humans are such peculiar creatures, aren't we? See for yourselves.
Would go ever go stocking?

I've never ordered from there but I know many places will ship stuff seperately if there is a delay in part of your order just so you don't have to wait forever in a situation like this.
I order the new League of Extraordinary Gentlemen HC from DCBS, and now that its been delayed, does that mean that my entire order is delayed? I have to ask because I ordered the Fables OHC as well as Absolute New Frontier and I want those to not be postponed indefinitely.
Has anyone ever had this kind of problem with DCBS?
I've never ordered from there but I know many places will ship stuff seperately if there is a delay in part of your order just so you don't have to wait forever in a situation like this.
I've had VERY good experiences with DCBS....I've had them ship monthly orders in up to 5 different chunks due to delays...
If you're worried, just shoot them an e-mail with your concerns. I'm sure they'll take care of you.
This space intentionally left blank.
You've got nothing to worry about. You'll get your regular monthly books and more than likely a credit for the un-shipped LOEG book. This is just me guessing... I've been with DCBS for years and never had any problems!
Last edited by BenC (formerly Ape-X); 09-26-2006 at 10:23 AM.
No they will not delay the entire order- if that was the case, can you imagine how CW would have fucked them up?
They will ship the rest of your order without it, and when the book gets to them they will put it out on the next box to you.
They are really good about this
Ok, that's awesome. Just a quick question: they ship everything at the end of the month, right?Originally Posted by ThisSpaceForRent
That's the default, though you can have them ship more frequently, if you like.Originally Posted by skinnyrunaway
This space intentionally left blank.
yea the default is that whatever you order gets shipped at the end of the month... HOWEVER...
I have noticed something.. at least with my orders.. say everything I ordered shipped the first 2 weeks of the month? I'll get it on the third.
You can gets stuff shipped bi weekly or weekly too-- but there is extra cost to the shipping to do that.
Me? I order trades and dup copies.. stuff I don't need right that week... you know.. like my daredevil.. I need that like yesterday.

Objective-C is wonderfully dynamic. One of my favorite wonders is the invocation grabber. I never paid them much attention at first, only using them when I explicitly needed an NSInvocation for some API. Then, I started working at Spotify and found a certain header file; suddenly, I saw the light.
If you know what that an invocation grabber is, you can just skip down to the code. For the rest, I'll elaborate.
Shortcut: Just gimme the juicy bits, I'm impatient!
An NSInvocation is a standard Foundation class that wraps four pieces of information all related to calling a method:
target, the object on which to call the method
selector, the name of the method to be called
methodSignature, a class that describes the return type, and the type of all the arguments, of a method.
- … and finally it contains all the arguments to call the method with.
Or, in the form you are used to see these parts in code:
[target partOfSelector:argument1 secondPartOfSelector:argument2]
Normally, these are kind of tricky to construct, particularly the method signature. However, Objective-C's message forwarding mechanism practically gives them to us for free!
Message forwarding?
(Short clarification detour: In Objective-C, you almost never call methods directly; instead, you send messages to objects, and the receiver almost always responds to the message by calling the method corresponding to that message on itself. This is why the terms 'method calling' and 'messaging' are often used interchangeably in ObjC, but they are not the same thing.)
When you call a method on an instance whose class does not define that method, you don't get a compiler error as in C++. When you then run your code, the runtime assumes that you're trying to do message forwarding. Message forwarding means that the receiver of the message will not itself handle the message, but is only a proxy for some other object. One common example is Distributed Object, where you're sending messages (calling methods) on objects in other applications, or even other applications on other computers.
Writing an invocation grabber
This is where the invocation grabber comes in. We can create a class that does nothing but listen for message forwarding requests, and when it receives one, asks the
target what it would respond to such a request. Given this answer, an NSInvocation can be created which matches the invocation of the message we sent to it.
Consider the following example:
We define a MyClass, create an instance of it, then create an invocationGrabber with that new MyClass as its target, and then try to call -[MyClass areTheNewViewersGoneYet:] on the grabber. Finally, we fetch the result of the invocation grabbing.
Note that line 9 does not call
areTheNewViewersGoneYet: on your new MyClass. Instead, the grabber intercepts that call and gives us an NSInvocation that would have called that line just as we wrote it, but some time in the future instead of now. This is like a one-line closure, as the code, state and variables you send to the grabber are saved until later, just waiting to be executed.
Our invocation grabber does not implement a method with the selector
areTheNewViewersGoneYet:. Given just the invocation grabber and that selector, the runtime would have no idea how to call it. Does it return a bool, in which case it will need to reserve four bytes for the return value? Or maybe a CGRect, in which case 16 bytes are needed.
So to figure this (and related things) out, the runtime will begin by asking for the method signature for the selector being sent with the message with -[NSObject methodSignatureForSelector:(SEL)]. Our SPInvocationGrabber itself has no idea, so we implement that method to ask the target:
- (NSMethodSignature *)methodSignatureForSelector:(SEL)inSelector {
return [_target methodSignatureForSelector:inSelector];
With the signature in hand, the runtime will now give you an NSInvocation and ask you to take care of invocation with
-[NSObject forwardInvocation:]. In our case, we'll just stash away the invocation for later use. In the example above, we created a
yellowDuck and sent it as an argument to
areTheNewViewersGoneYet:, and if we delay our execution of the NSInvocation, that duck might be released with the nearest NSAutoreleasePool. Thus, in forwardInvocation, we ask the NSInvocation to retain all its arguments. Don't worry, when we release the NSInvocation, it will release those arguments too.
- (void)forwardInvocation:(NSInvocation *)anInvocation {
[anInvocation retainArguments];
anInvocation.target = _target;
self.invocation = anInvocation;
That's basically all there is to it! Some memory management and accessor methods, and we have our own invocation grabber.
So what's all the fuss about?
Let's start out with some code.
That's the header. It has a few categories on NSObject, which is where it's at. (A category on NSObject means that we are adding methods on almost all other classes; these three methods can be called on any instance of a class inheriting from NSObject.)
-[NSObject grab] gives you an invocation grabber for the receiver, so that instead of
[[[SPInvocationGrabber alloc] initWithObject:foo] autorelease] we can just say
[foo grab]. It doesn't sound like much, but it goes a long way toward taking the hassle out of doing magic.
-[NSObject invokeAfter:] will give you a proxy object that, instead of performing the method you call on it right away, instead invokes it later. Again, doesn't sound like much, but man,
-[NSObject performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:] is a mouthful, and it doesn't work with non-object arguments or calls that take more than two arguments. Suddenly delayed execution is simple.
-[NSObject nextRunloop] is the same as
invokeAfter: with a zero second delay. This is the common idiom for having something executed the next runloop (or at least as soon as possible after the current runloop).
I'll show you what it can do with some examples:
A: Yeah yeah, we could have set an animation delegate, and animation did finish selector, and from there called removeFromSuperview. That's at least six lines of code. Now we did it with one:
[[flash invokeAfter:duration+0.1] removeFromSuperview].
B: Some things work better if you call them very soon instead of right away. Sometimes it's an animation that needs to have started before we can begin modifying it. Other times it's a timing issue and creating a delegate or notification is a lot of hassle for something that will just work one runloop from now.
C: Hey, who thought animations could be so simple? Don't worry if the view controller that owns that table goes away before the animation finished: the invocation grabber retains both the table view and the arguments, so for 450 milliseconds, those objects *will* remain.
There's more magic, but I'll go through that after the implementation:
First, stack trace saving. You have no idea how useful this is. If you do the old
-[NSObject performSelector:withObject:afterDelay:] trick, you'll note that sometimes you crash. You'll also note that below the method you just delayed execution of, you have no useful backtrace. Fret not, for execinfo.h is here to save your day! When an SPInvocationGrabber is created, the names of the symbols on the stack are saved away with
-[saveBacktrace]. Then, if you use the grabber's invoke instead of
-[NSInvocation invoke], the invocation will be wrapped in a try-catch, and in the event of an exception, the old backtrace will be printed, showing you the culprit that scheduled this broken future invocation.
As for those convenient categories on NSObject, they are ridiculously simple. All
-[invokeAfter:] does is to create a grabber, schedule it for execution later with an NSTimer (before it has grabbed anything, even!), and then returns it, ready to grab something for later execution.
I've tried to create
-[NSObject invokeOnMainThread] and
-[NSObject invokeOnBackgroundThread], but those are trickier, because you can't just schedule the invocation and then return the grabber, as
-[NSObject performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone:] would perform
-[invoke] immediately, giving us no time to do the invocation grabbing, as with
-[invokeAfter:]. It's easy to do on your own though, even without a convenience method:
id grabber = [foo grab];
[grabber doSomethingFancyThatMustBeDoneOnMainThread:object someArg:wohoo];
[grabber performSelectorOnMainThread:@selector(invoke) withObject:nil waitUntilDone:NO];
Enjoy, and do post your own invocation tricks in the comments and reblogs.
Update 20100828: As you can see from the gist, I've updated it with background and main thread invocation (example usage below); thanks to Adam Crume in the comments for the idea and half of the code.

Hey guys this is my first fanfic I write and I know it might be bad but Im trying my hardest to make it good !!!! :)
Summary- Edward and Bella are friends since the fifth grade when suddenly in the first year of highschool Edward suddenly disapears (ps Edward is 17 now and still best friends with Bella. ) Bella now a senior in highschool spots Edward in the cafeteria with 5 other beatiful godlike people.

Im not what you call popular I only have a few girlfriends Jess,Ang,and Becca, their my sisters I love them were friends since the first day of highschool. I noticed something was up when I entered the cafeteria because everyone was talking ,louder than usual I only caught a few sentances of their conversations "the new kids are wierd, but very good looking the blond boy is sooo HOT!!" I searched the room for the 6 new kids who came all the way from Alaska. I found them they were absolutley beaiful but one face I knew I reconized. The boy had touseled bronze hair and the most beatiful gold eyes. He stared back at me and I knew who it was HOLY CRAP!! ITS EDWARD !! I smiled at him for I now know who he is, he smild back a little bit and looked down. Becca who obviously saw this whispered "Ooooohhh you like the Cullens !! Especialy Edward Cullen!!! " I laughed but did she say Cullen?? I thought Edwards last name was Masen hmmmm.... I guess i'll find out........
Authors note: hey guys do you like it I decided to leave it there because i dont know what to post next please comment on what you think I know its horrible but im tring really hard to make it interesting
- aLeX ♥♥
hey sorry i forgot to mention but this is SUPER short soooooo sorry !!!!!!
It's a really interesting idea!! And I like it alot.
Don't worry about the length - I think it is good to have a short first chapter it gets the reader into the story without overwhelming them - my big mistake was to make mine page and pages long I think anybody going to it might just say - I haven't got the time for this and go on somewhere else!
I'm looking forward to the next chapter.
WOW This is good !!!! Awsome !!!!
PS.Thanx voor reply on my storie

Some parents are on edge after their child's school was under investigation about threats made over the weekend. They are concerned that they didn't learn about the incident from the school but from social media.
One West Fargo mother says she was left in the dark when news spread across social media that a threat had been made to students at her daughter's high school. "It makes me worried. We shouldn't find out via social networking."
According to police, over the weekend, threats were made between students at Davies High School and West Fargo High. "We were contacted about inappropriate comments posted on social media and text messages," says Lt. Joel Vettel with the Fargo Police Department. Officials say they contacted both school districts and investigated immediately. "We have determined there's no credible threat," says Lt. Vettel.
Even though the threats were made via text messages and social media outside of the classroom, parents say they need to know when a problem is being investigated at their child's school.
"I was angry at the school." Because to this parent she believes a serious threat like this, "A detective told me, it said WFHS needs to watch out before 2 more students are dead." is something parents need to know about from the school, not the computer. "They should be letting us know."
Authorities say the investigation is still ongoing. "We are really following up to see if there will be any criminal charges associated," says Lt. Vettel.
