Designed for professional use, Meyer's PV spreaders share many of the time-saving, long-lasting features our larger MDV series, Meyer PVs are powered by your choice of a Honda or Briggs & Stratton gas engines or a dual, 12-volt electric motor. Available in in 7' and 8' lengths with 1.8 and 2.0 cubic yard capacities, Meyer PVs are perfect for spreading bulk materials.
Meyer wants to make sure you spread material precisely where you need it and in the pattern you need, consistently every time. That's why we designed the PV spreader with two interal and four external adjustable baffles. You can count on a Meyer PV spreader to accommodate the intricacies of your spreading job and perform even in the harshest, snowiest conditions.
We built the PV spreader to perform. That's why so many helpful features come standard on it, like our "drop-n-lock top screens" to break up clumps of material and bolt-in chain shields to keep material from building up in the drag chain.
Your spreader needs to be up and running so that when the weather calls, you can answer. At Meyer, we build reliability into our products. Some of the built-to-last features of our PV line include:
Slot and tab construction is a stronger and more precise way to fit steel together.
The highest-tensile strength drag chain in the industry for consistently pulling all types of materials through the spreader.
Continuous welding on the inside of the hopper to prevent materials from pitting and leading to premature rusting.
Powder-coated paint for better durability over your spreader's lifespan.
Grease zerks at all critical points for keeping your investment up and running.
Marine-grade actuator protects the inner workings from the elements and keeps your spreader operating even in the harshest environments (applies to gas models only).
Stainless steel external baffle adjustment rods prevent the baffles from seizing and remaining stuck in one location.
Largest-in-the-industry 13-inch spinner disc with one-inch shaft spreads material from four feet to 40 feet.
Meyer's PV spreader was designed to make dispersing material with your pickup truck a breeze. The gas-powered PV can be controlled without the hassle of wires, or control your electric PV with an in-cab variable speed controller. Either way, you're able to have full control over your PV from the warmth and comfort of your vehicle.
You can install and remove a PV with a forklift instead of an overhead crane, thanks to our patented fork pockets.
Our easy-to-remove bolt-in-chain shield lets you adjust the shield's position to prevent material from clogging your drag chain.
Lastly, the Meyer PV makes oil changes simple. With the included oil drain hose, you can drain the oil mess-free.

Hello everybody,
As we all know, US Airways is not permitted to offer nonstop flights from DCA to Europe due to the perimeter rule and lack of customs and FIS facilities at DCA. Would it be feasible for US to offer direct flights from DCA to Europe via BOS similar to BA's LCY-SNN-JFK service? An example would be as follows, US 757 flight 123 departs from DCA for BOS filled with passengers only flying to LHR. Once the flight arrives in BOS, more passengers can board from BOS and the plane will be filled with necessary fuel to make it to LHR. The stop in BOS would take no more than 30 min and then the flight can depart BOS for LHR. On the return flight, passengers will board the plane heading for either DCA or BOS and the plane will be filled with the necessary fuel to make it to DCA. Then the plane will depart LHR for BOS. Upon arrival in BOS all passengers will deboard the plane and go through customs. After clearing customs all passengers heading to DCA will reboard the plane and then the plane will depart for DCA. As most IAD-Europe flights pass almost directly over BOS this service would only add approximately 45 min to the passangers flight time which can easily be compensated by reduced commuting time to DCA vs IAD. What are all of you thoughts?

This invention relates to a process for preparing certain biscyclopentadienyl Group 4 transition metal complexes possessing diene ligands. The complexes are valuable commercial polymerization catalysts for use in preparing polyolefins, especially crystalline polypropylene.
The preparation and characterization of certain biscyclopentadienyl (Cp2) zirconium and hafnium diene complexes is described in the following references: Yasuda, et al., Organometallics, 1982, 1, 388 (Yasuda I); Yasuda, et al. Acc. Chem. Res., 1985, 18 120 (Yasuda II); Erker, et al., Adv. Organomet. Chem., 1985, 24, 1 (Erker I); Erker et al. Chem. Ber., 1994, 127, 805 (Erker II); and U.S. Pat. No. 5,198,401. The present metal complexes were first disclosed in U.S. application Ser. No. 08/284,925, filed Aug. 2, 1994, of which U.S. Ser. No. 08/481,791, filed Jun. 7, 1995 is a continuation-in-part application, the teachings of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
U.S. Pat. No. 5,470,993 disclosed monocyclopentadienyl diene complexes with titanium or zirconium in which the metal is in the +2 formal oxidation state. Such metal complexes were formed by contacting a metal dihalide with a source of the cyclopentadienyl dianion ligand, a reducing agent and the neutral diene compound in any order.
The present invention relates to a process for preparing metal complexes containing two cyclopentadienyl groups or substituted cyclopentadienyl groups, said complex corresponding to the formula:
(Cp)2 MD
M is titanium, zirconium or hafnium in the +2 or +4 formal oxidation state;
Cp independently each occurrence is a substituted or unsubstituted cyclopentadienyl group bound in an η5 bonding mode to the metal, said substituted cyclopentadienyl group being substituted with from one to five substituents independently selected from the group consisting of hydrocarbyl, silyl, germyl, halo, cyano, hydrocarbyloxy, siloxy, and mixtures thereof, said substituent having up to 20 nonhydrogen atoms, or optionally, two such substituents (except cyano or halo) together cause Cp to have a fused ring structure, or together form one or two linking moieties joining the two Cp groups;
D is a stable, conjugated diene ligand, optionally substituted with one or more hydrocarbyl groups, silyl groups, hydrocarbylsilyl groups, silylhydrocarbyl groups, or mixtures thereof, said D having from 4 up to 40 nonhydrogen atoms and forming a π-complex with M when M is in the +2 formal oxidation state, and forming two σ-bonds with M when M is in the +4 formal oxidation state,
said process comprising contacting in any order:
a) a Group 4 metal salt corresponding to the formula M'X3 or M"X4, or a Lewis base adduct thereof,
b) a conjugated diene, D',
c) a reducing agent, and
d) a compound of the formula: CpM* or (Cp-Cp)M*n, wherein,
M' is titanium, zirconium or hafnium in the +3 formal oxidation state;
M" is titanium, zirconium or hafnium in the +4 formal oxidation state;
X is a halide, C1-6 hydrocarbyloxy or di(C1-6 hydrocarbyl)amido group;
D' is an uncoordinated diene having the same number of carbons as D and the same substitution pattern as D;
M* is a Group 1 or 2 metal cation, a Grignard reagent cation or a tri(C1-4 hydrocarbyl)silyl group; and
n is 1 when M* is a Group 2 metal cation and n is 2 when M* is a Group 1 metal cation, a Grignard reagent cation, or a trihydrocarbylsilyl group with the proviso that reagents a), and d) are not contacted with one another in the absence of reagent c).
Thus, suitable processes entail:contacting components a), b) and c), and thereafter contacting the resulting product with component d),
contacting components b) and c), contacting the resulting product with component a) and thereafter contacting the resulting product with component d), or
contacting all four components simultaneously.
In the diene complexes in which M is in the +2 formal oxidation state, the diene is associated with M as a π-complex in which the diene normally assumes an s-trans configuration or an s-cis configuration in which the bond lengths between M and the four carbon atoms of the conjugated diene are nearly equal (Δd as defined hereafter ≧-0.15 Å) whereas in the complexes in which M is in the +4 formal oxidation state, the diene is associated with the transition metal as a σ-complex in which the diene normally assumes a s-cis configuration in which the bond lengths between M and the four carbon atoms of the conjugated diene are significantly different (Δd<-0.15 Å). The formation of the complex with M in either the +2 or +4 formal oxidation state depends on the choice of the diene, the specific metal complex and the reaction conditions employed in the preparation of the complex.
Uniquely, where racemic or meso isomers may be produced (that is when the two Cp groups are optionally bonded together) the process results in formation of increased quantities of the racemic form of the diene metal complex. Typically, mixtures containing greater than 60 mole percent of the racemic isomer are produced.
It is to be understood that the present complexes may be formed and utilized as a mixture of the π-complexed and σ-complexed diene compounds where the metal centers are in the +2 or +4 formal oxidation state. Preferably the complex in the +2 formal oxidation state is present in a molar amount from 0.1 to 100.0 percent, more preferably in a molar amount from 10 to 100.0 percent, most preferably in a molar amount from 60 to 100.0 percent. Techniques for separation and purification of the complex in the +2 formal oxidation state from the foregoing mixtures are known in the art and disclosed for example in the previously mentioned Yasuda, I, supra, and Erker, I to III, supra, references and may be employed if desired to prepare and isolate the complexes in greater purity.
All reference to the Periodic Table of the Elements herein shall refer to the Periodic Table of the Elements, published and copyrighted by CRC Press, Inc., 1989. Also, any reference to a Group or Groups shall be to the Group or Groups as reflected in this Periodic Table of the Elements using the IUPAC system for numbering groups.
Useful dienes, D', are dienes that do not decompose under reaction conditions used to prepare the complexes according to the invention. Under subsequent polymerization conditions, or in the formation of catalytic derivatives of the present complexes, the diene ligand, D, may undergo chemical reaction or be replaced by another ligand.
Examples of suitable D ligands include: η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene; η4 -1,3-pentadiene; η4 -1-phenyl-1,3-pentadiene; η4 -1,4-dibenzyl-1,3-butadiene; η4 -2,4-hexadiene; η4 -3-methyl-1,3-pentadiene; η4 -1,4-ditolyl-1,3-butadiene; η4 -1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-butadiene, 2,3 dimethyl butadiene, isoprene. Of the foregoing complexes, terminally substituted derivatives (that is, the 1,4-disubstituted 1,3-dienes and 1- or 4-monosubstituted 1,3-dienes) generally form π-complexes whereas solely internally substituted derivatives (that is, the 2,3-disubstituted 1,3-dienes and 2- or 3-monosubstituted 1,3-dienes) generally form σ-complexes. Examples of terminally substituted dienes include 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene, 1-phenyl-1,3-pentadiene, and 2,4 hexadiene. Examples of internally substituted dienes include isoprene or 2,3-dimethyl butadiene.
Preferred diene ligands are 1,3-pentadiene, 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene, 1-phenyl-1,3-pentadiene, 1,4-dibenzyl-1,3-butadiene, 2,4-hexadiene, 3-methyl-1,3-pentadiene, 1,4-ditolyl-1,3-butadiene, and 1,4-bis(trimethylsilyl)-1,3-butadiene. All geometric isomers the foregoing diene compounds may be utilized.
By the term "reducing agent" as used herein is meant a metal or compound which, under reducing conditions can cause the transition metal to be reduced from the +4 or +3 formal oxidation state to the +2 formal oxidation state. The same procedure is employed for the preparation of the diene complexes where M is in the +2 formal oxidation state or in the +4 formal oxidation state, the nature of formal oxidation state of M in the complex being formed being primarily determined by the diene employed. Examples of suitable metal reducing agents are alkali metals, alkaline earth metals, aluminum, zinc and alloys of alkali metals or alkaline earth metals such as sodium/mercury amalgam and sodium/potassium alloy. Specific examples of suitable reducing agent compounds are sodium naphthalenide, potassium graphite, lithium alkyls, aluminum trialkyls and Grignard reagents. Most preferred reducing agents are the alkali metals or alkaline earth metals, C1-6 alkyl lithium, tri C1-6 alkyl aluminum and C1-6 alkyl Grignard reagents, especially lithium, n-butyl lithium, n-butyl MgCl, and triethyl aluminum.
The metal salts used as reactants in the present invention are preferably Group 4 metal halides, or dimethoxyethane (DME) or tetrahydrofuran (THF) adducts thereof, most preferably titanium tetrachloride, zirconium tetrachloride, hafnium tetrachloride, ZrCl4 �2THF, or HfCl4 �2THF.
By the term "mixtures" used with respect to Cp substituent groups are included Cp moieties bearing differing groups as well as Cp moieties bearing groups that are mixtures of the previously named entities, such as trihydrocarbylsilyl groups, especially trialkylsilyl groups, as well as trihydrocarbylgermyl groups, halohydrocarbyl groups and hydrocarbyloxy-substituted hydrocarbyl groups. Preferred substituents are C1-6 hydrocarbyl or tri(C1-6 hydrocarbyl)silyl groups. Additionally preferably, component d) is a Grignard salt, lithium salt or trimethylsilyl derivative of Cp or Cp-Cp.
Preferred complexes formed by the present invention correspond to the formula: ##STR1## wherein: M is titanium, zirconium or hafnium, preferably zirconium or hafnium, in the +2 or +4 formal oxidation state;
R' and R" in each occurrence are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydrocarbyl, silyl, germyl, cyano, halo and combinations thereof, said R' and R" having up to 20 non-hydrogen atoms each, or adjacent R' groups and/or adjacent R" groups (when R' and R" are not hydrogen, halo or cyano) together form a divalent derivative (i.e., a hydrocarbadiyl, siladiyl or germadiyl group) or one R' and one R" together (when R' and R" groups are not hydrogen halo or cyano) combine to form a divalent radical (i.e., a hydrocarbadiyl, germadiyl or siladiyl group) linking the two substituted cyclopentadienyl groups; and

Highly preferred bis-cyclopentadienyl compounds of formula A include those containing one or two bridging groups linking the cyclopentadienyl groups. Preferred bridging groups are those corresponding to the formula (ER"'2)x wherein E is carbon, silicon or germanium, R"' independently each occurrence is hydrogen or a group selected from silyl, hydrocarbyl, hydrocarbyloxy and combinations thereof, or two R"' groups together form a ring system, said R"' having up to 30 carbon or silicon atoms, and x is an integer from 1 to 8. Preferably R"' independently each occurrence is methyl, benzyl, tert-butyl or phenyl.
Examples of the foregoing bridged cyclopentadienyl containing complexes are compounds corresponding to the formula: ##STR2## wherein: M, D, E, R"' and x are as previously defined, and R' and R" in each occurrence are independently selected from the group consisting of hydrogen, hydrocarbyl, silyl, germyl, cyano, halo and combinations thereof, said R' and R" having up to 20 non-hydrogen atoms each, or adjacent R' groups and/or adjacent R" groups (when R' and R" are not hydrogen, halo or cyano) together form a divalent derivative (i.e., a hydrocarbadiyl, siladiyl or germadiyl group) or one R' and one R" together (when R' and R" groups are not hydrogen halo or cyano) combine to form a divalent radical (i.e., a hydrocarbadiyl, germadiyl or siladiyl group) linking the two cyclopentadienyl groups.
Such bridged structures are especially suited for the preparation of polymers having stereoregular molecular structure. In such capacity it is preferred that the complex be nonsymmetrical or possess a chiral, stereorigid structure. Examples of the first type are compounds possessing different delocalized π-bonded systems, such as one cyclopentadienyl group and one fluorenyl group. Similar systems based on Ti(IV) or Zr(IV) were disclosed for preparation of syndictactic olefin polymers in Ewen, et al., J. Am. Chem. Soc. 110, 6255-6256 (1980). Examples of chiral structures include bis-indenyl complexes. Similar systems based on Ti(IV) or Zr(IV) were disclosed for preparation of isotactic olefin polymers in Wild et al., J. Organomet. Chem, 232, 233-47, (1982).
Exemplary bridged cyclopentadienyl moieties in the complexes of formula (B) are: dimethylsilanediylbis((2-methyl-4-phenyl)-1-indenyl)zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), dimethylsilanediyl-bis((2-methyl-4-(1-napthyl))-1-indenyl)zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), 1,2-ethanediylbis(2-methyl-4-(1-phenyl)-1-indenyl)zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), 1,2-ethanediyl-bis(2-methyl-4-(1-napthyl)-1-indenyl)zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), (1,2-ethanediylbis(1-indenyl)!zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), 1,2-ethanediylbis(1-tetrahydroindenyl)!zirconium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), 1,2-ethanediylbis(1-indenyl)!hafnium (η4 -1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene), and 2,2-propanediyl(9-fluorenyl)(cyclopentadienyl)!zirconium (1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene).
In general, the process involves combining the respective reactants, preferably in a solution, optionally while agitating and heating above ambient temperature (25� C.). Recovery and purification of the intermediate products when a multiple step reaction is employed may be desirable. The process preferably is conducted in an inert, noninterfering solvent at a temperature from -100� C. to 300� C., preferably from -78� to 130� C., most preferably from -10� to 120� C.
Suitable inert, noninterfering solvents for the formation of the complexes are aliphatic and aromatic hydrocarbons and halohydrocarbons, ethers, and cyclic ethers. Examples include straight and branched-chain hydrocarbons such as isobutane, butane, pentane, hexane, heptane, octane, and mixtures thereof; cyclic and alicyclic hydrocarbons such as cyclohexane, cycloheptane, methylcyclohexane, methylcycloheptane, and mixtures thereof; aromatic and hydrocarbyl-substituted aromatic compounds such as benzene, toluene, xylene, and the like, C1-4 dialkyl ethers, C1-4 dialkyl ether derivatives of (poly)alkylene glycols, and tetrahydrofuran. Mixtures of the foregoing list of suitable solvents are also suitable.
The recovery procedure involves separation of the resulting byproducts and devolatilization of the reaction medium. Extraction into a secondary solvent may be employed if desired. Alternatively, if the desired product is an insoluble precipitate, filtration or other separation technique may be employed.
The complexes are rendered catalytically active by combination with one or more activating cocatalysts, by use of an activating technique, or a combination thereof. Suitable activating cocatalysts include polymeric or oligomeric alumoxanes, especially methylalumoxane, triisobutyl aluminum modified methylalumoxane, or diisobutylalumoxane; strong Lewis acids (the term "strong Lewis acid" as used herein is defined as trihydrocarbyl substituted Group 13 compounds, especially tri(hydrocarbyl)aluminum- or tri(hydrocarbyl)boron compounds and halogenated derivatives thereof, having from 1 to 10 carbons in each hydrocarbyl or halogenated hydrocarbyl group, more especially perfluorinated tri(aryl)boron compounds, and most especially tris(pentafluorophenyl)borane); amine, phosphine, aliphatic alcohol and mercaptan adducts of halogenated tri(C1-10 hydrocarbyl)boron compounds, especially such adducts of perfluorinated tri(aryl)boron compounds; nonpolymeric, ionic, compatible, noncoordinating, activating compounds (including the use of such compounds under oxidizing conditions); bulk electrolysis (explained in more detail hereinafter); and combinations of the foregoing activating cocatalysts and techniques. The foregoing activating cocatalysts and activating techniques have been previously taught with respect to different metal complexes in the following references: EP-A-277,003, U.S. Pat. No. 5,153,157, U.S. Pat. No. 5,064,802, EP-A-468,651 (equivalent to U.S. Ser. No. 07/547,718), EP-A-520,732 (equivalent to U.S. Ser. No. 07/876,268), and WO93/23412 (equivalent to U.S. Ser. No. 07/884,966 filed May 1, 1992) the teachings of which are hereby incorporated by reference.
The catalysts may be used to polymerize ethylenically and/or acetylenically unsaturated monomers having from 2 to 20 carbon atoms either alone or in combination. Preferred monomers include the C2-10 α-olefins especially ethylene, propylene, isobutylene, 1-butene, 1-hexene, 4-methyl-1-pentene, and 1-octene and mixtures thereof. Other preferred monomers include vinylcyclohexene, vinylcyclohexane, styrene, C1-4 alkyl substituted styrene, tetrafluoroethylene, vinylbenzocyclobutane, ethylidenenorbornene, piperylene, 1,4-hexadiene, methyl-1,4-hexadiene and 7-methyl-1,6-octadiene.
When the present bridged cyclopentadienyl polymerization catalysts are used to polymerize prochiral olefins, syndiotactic or isotactic polymers are attainable. As used herein, the term "syndiotactic" refers to polymers having a stereoregular structure of greater than 50 percent, preferably greater than 75 percent syndiotactic of a racemic triad as determined by 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Conversely, the term "isotactic" refers to polymers having a stereoregular structure of greater than 50 percent, preferably greater than 75 percent isotactic of a meso triad as determined by 13 C nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopy. Such polymers may be usefully employed in the preparation of articles and objects having an extremely high resistance to deformation due to the effects of temperature via compression molding, injection molding or other suitable technique.
Having described the invention the following examples are provided as further illustration thereof and are not to be construed as limiting. Unless stated to the contrary all parts and percentages are expressed on a weight basis.
In an inert atmosphere glove box, 377 mg (1.00 mmol) of ZrCl4, 106 mg (1.00 mmol) of 1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene were combined in 60 ml of tetrahydrofuran (THF). To the stirred solution was added 0.80 ml (2.00 mmol) of 2.5M n-butyl lithium in mixed hexanes. The solution turned from colorless to bright orange. After two minutes 520 mg (1.00 mmol) of 1,2-ethylene bis(indenide)!(MgCl)2 (THF)2 was added as a solid. The solution turned dark red immediately. After stirring at 25� C. for 3 hours, the volatiles were removed under reduced pressure. The red paste residue was triturated with mixed hexanes and extracted 3 times with a total of 60 ml of toluene. The extracts were filtered and combined with the hexanes filtrate and volatiles removed under reduced pressure. The solid residue was slurried in 2 mL of tetramethylsilane which was then decanted from the solid. Further drying under reduced pressure gave 286 mg of a red solid.
1 H NMR analysis showed that racemic 1,2-ethylenebis(indenyl)!zirconium (1,4-diphenyl-1,3-butadiene) was the major product. Conversion to the dichloride by addition of concentrated HCl gave 63 percent of racemic 1,2-ethylenebis(indenyl)!zirconium dichloride and 37 percent of the meso isomer as the only identifiable indenyl containing products.

Marcia Ball got things started in a celebratory fashion on her debut Rounder release, doing the title track in a taunting, challenging manner aided by flashy guitar riffs from Stevie Ray Vaughan. From there, she artfully displayed other sides of her personality, from dismayed to defiant and assured. Her rendition of "Soul On Fire" was heartfelt, but didn't approach the majestic quality of Lavern Baker's original. She did much better on "I Don't Want No Man," striking the air of disdain and dissatisfaction that Bobby "Blue" Bland immortalized on "I Don't Want No Woman"; guitarist Kenny Ray even got the Wayne Bennett licks down perfectly. ~ Ron Wynn

ReligionProject reference: 210385
Funded under :
A Theory of Religious Organizations
Project details
Total cost:EUR 550 000
EU contribution:EUR 550 000
Coordinated in:United Kingdom
Call for proposal:ERC-2007-StGSee other projects for this call
Funding scheme:ERC-SG - ERC Starting Grant
In this research project I am proposing a novel theoretical framework to explain religious organizations. I incorporate the notion of religious beliefs in a rational framework of social interaction. This will allow me to distinguish this theory of religious organizations from both existing work on religion and from theories of other social organizations. Moreover, it will allow me to analyze the dynamic evolution of religious organizations. The analysis of religion from an economic agent point of view will create new horizons by adding to the rich literature stemming from other social science disciplines and evolutionary biology. The objectives of this research project are: (i) To provide an applicable model of religion that will link the individual and social aspects of religion; (ii) To provide a theoretical framework to understand the relations between different religious groups and between religious and secular groups; (iii) To understand the dynamic evolution of religious beliefs and religious organizations; (iv) To understand the connection between religious leadership and political power; (v) To provide a basis for future empirical work by yielding new testable predictions about the dynamics of religious organizations and religious tolerance.

"It was amazing. It's a whole different ballgame, playing at the college level. Everything's so much faster," Frady said.
Frady was one of five Florida State true freshmen to play in the Seminoles' season-opening victory over the North Carolina Tar Heels.
Although small in numbers, FSU's recruiting class made an impressive impact during preseason drills.
The class didn't disappoint Saturday before a soldout crowd at Kenan Stadium and a regional television audience on ABC.
Frady, FSU's second-team center behind David Castillo, was joined in the fray behind fellow offensive lineman Mario Henderson, linebacker Ernie Sims, defensive lineman Clifton Dickson -- wearing jersey No. 97 with no name -- and cornerback Antonio Cromartie.
Frady admitted he entered the game not knowing if he would play.
"I guess everybody kind of hopes to, but in the back of your mind, you're thinking, 'Well, I'm a true freshman, this is one of the top programs in the country, I'm probably not going to get to play'" Frady said.
"My goal was to be ready if I was called upon. That's what I worked for all summer. I hope that, as the season progresses, if I'm called upon again, I'll be even more up to the challenge."
Frady also said going up against the Seminoles' experienced defense during the preseason helped prepare him for the opener. Frady certainly has the battle scars as proof, suffering a slight concussion, tweaking a knee and experiencing heat-related issues.
"I really think that going against our defense in practice every day really helped prepare me for what I'm going to see in the games," Frady said. "The speed that our guys have out there is just incredible. It's among the best in the country."
Noseguard Brodrick Bunkley was one of eight true freshmen who saw action last season. He also was impressed with Seminoles' youth, pointing out how it helps with player rotation.
"We have an awesome freshman in Clifton Dickson, and Charles Howard – he's a little undersized, but quick as a cat," Bunkley said.
"And we've got me, Dock (Darnell Dockett), Jeff (Womble), and Travis (Johnson). I feel comfortable. Every time we're out there on the field and somebody gets winded, we always have somebody fresh to move in.
"We have a nice rotation. We've got guys in there that are able to do their job and do it well. We could have one of the best D-line units – that's what our goal is, to be one of the best D-line units in America. Like I said, we've just got to get our heads on straight. Everything's going fine right now, everybody's healthy. When it comes game time, and the adrenaline's going, you don't worry about anything."
Of course, FSU's first-year players such as Frady and others still have plenty to worry about. Cromartie and Sims arrived at FSU as two of the nation's most heralded recruits.
"I thought it went well -- it was everything I thought it would be," Cromartie said and smiled about his first collegiate game. "But I still have so much I need to work on. It was a start."

Heart of Hearts Kissing Booth Coming to Times Square
If you're like us, Valentine's Day is a holiday to search for the lesser known New York City. The Untapped Cities team will be hitting up the Newtown Creek Wastewater Treatment plant for the annual Valentine's Day tour of the digester eggs. But there are plenty of other alternative activities like a chocolate takedown, an undie run, special tours, and more:
If you're like us, the standard Valentine's Day dinner and flowers doesn't really cut it, and most years you probably want to just bypass the holiday all together. But this is New York City after all, and what other city might have such a range of alternative Valentine's Day activities that hit the heart of the urban explorer? Here are 10 worth checking out:
beep beep
We all know what day tomorrow is. (It's House of Cards Season 2 premiere day.)
Some might feel that the gross piles of dirty, garbage-strewn, yellowy-grey snow do not provide a fitting atmosphere to a celebration of love, affection, and variety-packs of candy hearts. And to that I say, turn your mind away from the modern trappings of romance and sentimentalism! Think about Romanticism instead. (more…)
Valentine's Day weekend is the perfect time to visit some of NYC's vintage restaurants or hidden bars with friends or a loved one. With Presidents' Day falling on Monday, the long-weekend is also a great opportunity to try something new or unusual. It's not hard to create a more offbeat or even eccentric holidays here in New York City; if the classic dinner-and-a-movie combo doesn't sound appealing this year, then check out one of these quirky Valentine's events!
Image via The Rejection Show
Every night this February, three minutes before the clock strikes midnight, 15 billboards in Times Square will light up with animated messages of love. These glowing Valentines, scrawled in neon colors over a black surface, are the work of British artist Tracey Emin. "I promise to love you," writes her invisible hand. And then, "I listen to the ocean and all I hear is you." (more…)
With a tsunami of advertising since right after Christmas, we are right down to it – the week of Valentine's Day. So in thinking of the people who occupy our hearts, I give you… flower shops. The watercolor images of the flower shops all around me. The ones I frequent with great pleasure all throughout the year.
And who do we bestow our heartfelt gifts upon? It's time to start giving that some thought lest you be left behind in the dust – literally. For those of you who have too many to fit your budget, you're guaranteed to have something for all your Valentines with a stroll down west 28th Street's flower district. You can say Happy Valentine's Day in so many ways. Valentine's Day is not just for lovers but also for lovers of life, and a day to let the people who make your day know it.
While the one I love will probably be at one of the above, I'll be at the Barney's Warehouse Sale which, as luck would have it, starts on Valentine's Day, and then on to the Racked recommended eight in Harlem! So from 110th Street to 125th Street in watercolor, Happy Valentine's Day.
You can follow AFineLyne on Twitter or on Facebook at Harlem Sketches or Greenwich Villages Sketches. Stop by the Untapped Shop for a special Valentine's gift.

Win Free Weezer Tickets!
Sayre Berman
I suppose it's debatable, but Pinkerton is actually one of the best albums ever. Like all kinds of music or books or visual arts, you have to encounter an album or song or band at a certain time in your life for it to really hit heavy. Like if you read Catcher in the Rye for the first time at 50, you may not give a good goddamn about Holden's obsession with phonies. But if you read it at 12, JD Salinger just explained the universe in one novel. Pinkerton is definitely one of those oeuvres. But if you got in on that angsty shit when times were tough and you were just old enough, you feel the fuck out of this album forever.
Next week, Weezer will be heading to Hard Rock Live again to perform probably some classics off this finest release, but also some of the stuff everyone complains about. The good news is that we have two pairs of tickets to give away, and it'll be easy for you get 'em.

I'm a corporate training consultant and adjunct professor who loves to read! I'm always looking for the next big thing.
"Great Addition to the Dark Tower Series"
This was a great book, and I loved how it fit into the exisiting Dark Tower series. The idea of a story inside a story inside a stroy was incredibly well executed. Some of my friends didn't care for Stephen King's narration; however, I thought he was terrific. I always prefer listening to the author because you can hear exactly how the author imagined the words to be said. I would highly recommend this book to anyone--even if they haven't read any of the other Dark Tower books.
"Stephen King Fan...but"
This book was boring. It added nothing to the overall story. I have read all of SK's books, and this one did not make the cut. Come on Stephen, you must have another book on the caliber of The Green Mile. I know you do.
Yes, anything he writes.
Warcraft Addict
"A wonderful addition to the Dark Tower Series"
Nearly anyone. I love your writing Stephen, but please leave the reading to someone else.
"more like little sisters of Eluria then DT"
the narration. King can be ok at times - i do like some of his narration but he really should have let George Guidell do this one. It was my least favorite readings of his audio books.
The transformation of the skin man.
it couldn't
read the book if you can, it is a great story though doesn't really add to the DT story much. It just stands really well on it's own. And lest hope that it is re-recorded like some of Kings other books.
I love magic, fantasy and mystery! I hate sterotypical female characters and the authors who are stupid enough to create these characters!
"Fabulous storytelling"
I was very disappointed that this book went backward instead of forward in the story of the Dark Tower, however, it is a WONDERFUL short stack of stories within the Dark Tower story. When I listen to this series again, I'll listen to it before Wolves of the Calla instead of after.
New to the audiobook thing, but I like it! I'm a huge Stephen King fan... Along with the spy/military type books by Brad Thor, Vince Flynn
"Great story, lots of imagery!"
Yes, a lot of info and background into the world created by Mr King. The language used needed some getting used to ... I'll listen again just to make sure I didn't miss anything before moving on in the series!
A section where the young gunslinger meets a tribe who help him even though they don't speak the same language.
The young boy who ends up becoming a gunslinger inspite of his own doubts and fears.
In a place where worlds meet, the gunslingers of the old west still keep the peace!
"A reblowned wind"
I feel Stephen, who is my favorite a writer in this genre, must have pulled this one out of his "holding" bag. Not much of a story. Audio screwed up. Wish I had my credit back. Will look at future Roland adventures with a jaundiced eye. King is worthy of SO much better.
Probably, cautiously.
Should have gotten a better narrator. John Lee, etc Roy Dotrice probably wouldn't have done it. Frank Muller would be my first choice, but his marvelous voice has been silenced by fate .
Not that many to choose from.
Stephen, you owe me a credit.
"Great story, bad narrator"
Great story as usual from Sai King but his voice is like nails on a chalk board to me. Worth the listen but I hope he lets the pros read his books in the future.
"Stephen King--Fantastic Fantasy Writier"
As an avid fan of Stephen King's outstanding fantasy series, The Dark Tower, I enjoyed peeking through the keyhole into Roland's early days as a gunslinger in the "world that had moved on." As usual, King seduces the reader with his masterful manipulation of the English language. No matter if the reader is reading the book or listening to it, she becomes so immersed that the division between the written word and reality thins.
I find it difficult to select a favorite character because they are so vivid and real. Each one draws the reader forward into whatever tale is being told.
King knows and loves his characters. As a result, he understands what they sound like and feel. Through King's skillful reading, the characters leap from the pages and into the homes of the reader/listeners. Each one owns a particular and distinct voice that only King can reproduce in its fulness.
My house sparkled and my garden bloomed weed-free as I used every opportunity to listen to this engaging tale.
Stephen King is often dismissed as a writer of horror fiction; yet he has not written or published in this genre since the 1980s. Most of his significant later books explore the nature of good and evil through stories drawn from every day possibilities. I have been a King fan since the beginning and his books become more complex with each passing year. I use his fiction to teach writing and critical thinking because he has such a superior grasp of language construction. He invites the reader in and gently closes the door.
I enjoy reading many books genres. But I love listening to fantasy books.
"Great Stephen King fantasy"
I loved the Gunslinger series and the character Roland of Gilead. I was so excited for a new book. And this does not disappoint. In this story Roland tells his katet a story from his past. Stephen King is a wonderful reader. I could not stop listening.

A non-racist, unbigoted inquiry into the core teachings of Islam and what it all means (if anything) for non-Muslims
Islam's Prime Directive
Islam's doctrine is unique because its history is unique. The three other large, fairly recent religions (Buddhism, Christianity, and Taoism) arose within an already-existing legal system. The methods they could use to spread their religion were limited by that system. Christianity, for example, arose at a time when Judaism was strong, and Rome was even stronger. If Christians had been armed insurrectionists, if they had tried to take over the Roman government, if they had tried gaining converts by force, Christianity would have been annihilated before it really got started.
The same can be said for Buddhism and Taoism.
The same was also true for Islam when it first started in Mecca. Mohammad and his followers were a minority and had to practice some degree of tolerance of other religions. But when they moved to a new city (Medina), things changed. They soon ruled that city. In Arabia at the time, no overriding legal or military power existed — the region now known as Saudi Arabia was made up of independent tribes and clans.
In other words, the religion of Islam arose where there was no external imposition of limits, and it developed a religious doctrine quite different from other religions we are familiar with. Islamic doctrines unapologetically advocate the use of force, warfare, deceit, fear, torture, and slaughter to bring the law of Allah to the world. This sounds really horrible, but I'm not making this up. You can verify this all yourself, and I wish you would. You should start by reading the Quran. It has been made relatively easy for you.
In their time, nothing existed to stop the fledgling religion from employing any means necessary. Unfortunately, it was all written down and has been considered holy doctrine ever since.
Since Mohammad existed in the seventh century, his biographical details were also written down and were never lost. What he did and said is well-preserved, as is the unaltered, unedited holy book of Islam, the Quran.
Unfortunately for non-Muslims, it says in the Quran no less than 91 times that a Muslim should follow Mohammad's example in all things and for all time.
So Islam's prime directive is to bring the law of Allah to all people on earth using any means necessary. You can say Islam's mission in three words: Islam must dominate. That's the bad news for us non-Muslims. The good news is that many people who consider themselves Muslims don't know much about Islam, and even some who know about this prime directive are not interested in pursuing it.
Some are pursuing it earnestly, however, and it is worth knowing about because some of the ways they're pursuing it are pretty clever. Learn more about that here: Perfectly Legal Jihad. Once we know what's going on and what devout, orthodox Muslims are aiming for, it should be easier to prevent them from gaining any ground.

Thank you for your very information websiteReplyDelete
The politically correct insist that Islam is a religion equal to all others and freedom of religion in America requires that we treat their religion as equal to all other religions. All the images we have seen in the news point to a different truth--a culture of backward people living the same as they did 2,000 years ago, cruelty to women, fanatical anti-Western hatred, and hatred of anything modern, hatred of an open society, and fanatical worship of the Koran. Allowing more Muslims into the country will bring trouble because Christians and Jews will never accept or allow the Islamification of this country. There are exceptions: those who helped us in the war George Bush unnecessarily started in Iraq and Afganistan and President Obama reluctantly continues. We have to find another way to deal with the Middle East besides using our military might. This struggle will continue and will get worse.ReplyDeleteReplies

As far as I'm concerned treating islam as equal is signing your own death warrant and the deaths of your children and grandchildren..... You do not treat evil the same as goodness, you can't, they are two separate things and islam should be banned from America, Canada and any other country really in the world, not just in America. It's evil, their book, their belief system, everything, of course, they don't have any choice, do they??? That's why we have laws, you cannot treat everyone and everything the same, that is insanity itself. #trumpforpresidentDelete
Stopping, at least temporarily, Muslim immigration, would be a good first step. Please sign the petition:ReplyDelete
I think Islam is unconstitutional for the United States in that you aspire to Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion in your constitution. We have similar words in our Federation documents and so do European countries and the UK & Ireland. We all know what oppression is all about, and this is the reason for it in the first place. i.e. Freedom of Speech and Freedom of Religion. The right of every human being.Delete
There is no Freedom of Speech or religion in Islam, it must be Islam and nothing else and you will lose your life if you try to opt out of Islam. This is the truth of Islam. This cant be in accordance with your constitution. And if it is can someone please, as a non American, put me straight on this point.
We need to take a closer look at who it is among us, or more correctly our countries. We must find out who are in charge of politically correctness, which is chipping away at our rights. And who is aiding and abetting the enemy to all freedoms in our world and who is taking money for doing so. We have to search for these people. It can be done. There must be someone out there who knows the truth and will help save our Freedoms.
No, I don't just want to stop Islam immigration, I want to deport it completely! I think it should be treated exactly like a Cancer!Delete

The rise of "Black Muslims" in our country in the 60's and 70's and into the present is and was a self-imposed direct alignment for hatred against the Western World. A hatred that could be deemed acceptable, as it was the simple converting to an existing religion with the necessary legal protections. Islam has the most important ingredient and that is hatred. Too bad our founding fathers, the powerful futurists that they were, didn't allow for freedom of religion with the exception of Islam.ReplyDeleteReplies

Their idea of freedom of religion was freedom of Christianity without a government run or government preferred church. If you go read what they said, we were to be and stay a Christian country. Not a particular religion or sect, which always ended in civil wars or coups, but a country that accepted all brands of Christianity, and preferred none specifically. It was later when Jeffersons letter to the Marbury Baptist church got misinterpreted as a wall of separation, and then all religions soon became on equal footing. It was never meant to be that way in the USA inn accordance with their own words. It was the revisionists of history that perverted the meaning of the first amendment and all other religion related sentiments inferred from the constitution. What w now have was never meant to be.Delete

I'm afraid that they would turn to the Iranian shiite rendition of islam.....the Twelvers.ReplyDelete
The Twelvers are by far the largest and most dangerous group of Shiite Muslims, because the Iranians are Twelvers. Perhaps eighty percent of the Shiis are Twelvers. Twelvers constitute ninety percent of the modern population of Iran and fifty-five to sixty percent of the population of Iraq. Twelver Shiites are the majority in Iran, Iraq, Azerbaijan and also have substantial populations in Turkey, Pakistan, Lebanon, Syria, India, Afghanistan and Bahrain.
The other Islamists are Sunni (Saudi Arabia).

In all fairness, and not to contradict the thrust of this website- I have trouble differentiating between magic-based religions. If a God is said to exist the shakers and movers will continue trying to get us to mass murder in the name of God so that they can better steal land, oil, or whatever in the name of God. I'm not convinced that stopping the advance of the second largest magic-based religion on this world is a strong enough measure. It's only perhaps a good start. I'm actually in favor of social profiling as a means to keep undesirables out. Those of cultures and religions tending to overpopulate pose a threst greater than the prospect of war with them.ReplyDelete
Very concise description of Islam and differentiation from other religions. It affords readers to better understand why radicalized versions of basic Islam beliefs arise. Can I place this on my OSINT News site, with kudos to you, of course? Let me know. www.osintdaily.blogspot.comReplyDelete
Yes, by all means. Place it on your OSINT News site.ReplyDelete

NOW one can easily see why our African President has treated "the situation" as he has been doing!!!ReplyDelete
And, thereligionofpeace.com, for that matter, which has been tracking Islamic deadly attacks since 9/11/2001. It's got most of them, now over 27,000, but many are missing. Millions have been murdered & injured since 9/11/01 by people who are clearly doing it because of Islam itself. They consider themselves, hundreds of millions, to be Orthodox practicing very serious Muslims. A recent PEW study surveyed many Muslim populations worldwide. The vast majority of Muslims have at least some beliefs as Muslims based on Islam that are considered barbarism according to civilization.ReplyDelete
I'd like to see your Inquiry articles about violence in Islam include one particular Islamic doctrine, Abrogation. The Koran states that when there are contradictory things, the ones stated later, closer to Mohammed's death, are improvements and to be followed. Chapter 9, The Verses of the Sword, is the 2nd to last chronological chapter, which means, according to the overwhelming predominance of Islamic jurisprudence, that it supersedes all earlier temperate verses. It's the basis for so far an almost 1,400 year deadly, injurious Jihad that is to lead to The Prime Directive you've alluded to in a few articles, making the world one Islamic nation.Replies
What you mean that allah got it wrong the first time.Delete
The "Great Commission" of Christianity is exactly the same as the basic definition or premise of Islam which requires the submission or surrender to God.ReplyDelete
Matthew 28:19-20...Jesus states " Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.
The Catholic Church, being historically the most well organized and powerful political and spiritual apparatus for centuries set about this task. In comparison to Islam, the doctrine of the Bible is not at all different from what you state is unique to Islam.
The doctrine is legion, but I will confine it to a few passages....
If your own full brother, or your son or daughter, or your beloved wife, or you intimate friend, entices you secretly to serve other gods, whom you and your fathers have not known, gods of any other nations, near at hand or far away, from one end of the earth to the other: do not yield to him or listen to him, nor look with pity upon him, to spare or shield him, but kill him. Your hand shall be the first raised to slay him; the rest of the people shall join in with you. You shall stone him to death, because he sought to lead you astray from the Lord, your God, who brought you out of the land of Egypt, that place of slavery. And all Israel, hearing of this, shall fear and never do such evil as this in your midst. This is from Deuteronomy 13:7-12
The God of the Israelites is no less of an omnipotent, omnipresent and decidedly less or more benevolent God that the Christian or Islamic God.
Buddhism and Taoism do not compare to these three religions as they omit the violence and aggression completely.
Islam may be as you say; omitting the positive aspects that it does possess of course, but it certainly no different than Christianity or the religion they both sprang from.
I realize I might be a blasphemer....but please don't use that Christian Doctrine on me that requires you to "Take the blasphemer outside the camp, and tell all those who heard him to lay their hands on his head. Then let the entire community stone him to death. Say to the people of Israel: Those who blaspheme God will suffer the consequences of their guilt and be punished. Anyone who blasphemes the LORD's name must be stoned to death by the whole community of Israel. Any Israelite or foreigner among you who blasphemes the LORD's name will surely die. (Leviticus 24:10-16)
The Quran tells us the same thing as Christianity. Quran (5:33) - "The punishment of those who wage war against Allah and His messenger and strive to make mischief in the land is only this, that they should be murdered or crucified or their hands and their feet should be cut off on opposite sides or they should be imprisoned; this shall be as a disgrace for them in this world, and in the hereafter they shall have a grievous chastisement".
Its fairly easy to find doctrine like this in the Quran; its even easier in the Bible. Its longer.
