<DIV style="RIGHT: auto"><< Rarer even than that is "Hatishpot hatishpot," according to the custom that reads it only when "forced to", because Acharei and Kedoshim are separate and neither Shabbos has a special haftarah. This happns only *in shanim me'ubarot* when Rosh Hashana is on Shabbat and Marheshvan and Kislev both have 29 days. This last happened in 5757, and is next scheduled for 5784 -- a gap of 27 years.>></DIV>
