The Eco•Laboratory is an exemplary green complex designed around a vibrant community garden In Seattle's Belltown neighborhood. Conceived by Weber Thompson, the project recently won the Natural Design Talent Competition at Greenbuild. The innovative design focuses upon energy systems, natural ventilation, community aspects, renewable energy, and indoor air quality, resulting in a spectacular example of what green building is about – interdisciplinary teams designing living buildings.
Situated on an infill lot in downtown Seattle, the Eco•Laboratory will house a neighborhood market, residential, office space, vocational training center and a sustainability education center. The project is planned for a 7,200 sq ft plot of land known as the P-Patch, and the development offers local residents plots of land for gardening and features three historic cottages that house local writers-in-residence. The goal was to not only make the space more usable for the community, but also to make it financially viable. The designers of the Eco•Laboratory concentrated on the six petals of the Natural Living Building Challenge in order to create this design.
The project incorporates the current buildings and community aspect into a more functional space that benefits a greater number of local residents. Additionally, since the community garden is so important, the design team highlighted the outdoor landscape and extended it into the building with indoor vegetation.
The designers sought to minimize the introduction of new materials while carefully considering the resources required. All demolition waste is used on-site during construction. Concrete walls are composed of a fiber-optic aggregate that helps reveal the systems within the building and pulls light into interior spaces. Additionally, the main living modules in the building are composed of repurposed shipping containers.
The project makes excellent use of both passive and active systems to reduce energy consumption. The passive ventilation system uses Earth Tubes to pull outside air in, creating a stack-effect thermal control system. To generate energy, solar, wind, biofuels and hydrogen fuels will be used.
Indoor Quality of LIfe:
The Eco Laboratory promotes healthy indoors, and brings nature inside. Again, the Earth Tubes play a huge role in natural ventilation, while occupants have direct control over air flow, and lighting. Solar passive design promotes the stack effect and natural lighting. Vegetation, both indoors and in the gardens, enhances occupants' indoor environmental quality and health.
Conservation of water is a very important aspect of this project. Water is collected through impervious surfaces and sent through an organic filtration system that harnesses aquatic ecosystems to convert black and gray water to usable resources. This water is used for building's residents, indoor vegetation and outdoor gardens.
Beauty & Inspiration:
The structure and design are definitely aesthetically pleasing, but as the design team says: "Beauty and Inspiration are not only found in aesthetic form, but in the aesthetics of performance, through the experience of place and lasting value for visitors and residents, with the satisfaction of a site's potential brought to fruition."

Congratulations design team for the win! That has to feel pretty good.
However,I'm sorry but I don't find this as visually pleasing as the article makes it out to be, and the renderings don't give it any help until the last image, which actually feels fairly decent. My criticism is that I would have liked the designers to be less overt with their "green" features and intergrate them more successfully into the overall design of the building. There appears to be no over riding idea that brings the building together as a whole, leaving it feeling a little bit like a glazed sturctural system with sustainable features attached here and there. I don't see capital "A" Architecture here. I see engineering and systems but no soul. While I understand this was for a Cascadia design competition, we're still designers and shouldn't use "carbon nuetral" as an excuse to build unpleasant buildings. Would any of you really choose to live/ work there for it's aesthetics? I'm just asking if you think the Ipod would have been as successful if it had just been the raw electronics without the styling of the case? But, again congratulations on the win.

Looking forward to seeing this come to fruition. As a born and raised here, Seattlite, it is exciting to see green growing up around the city that is equitable for lower income people. More space for growing food and more green is a good thing especially in this day of pesticide laden choices. The building is looks like a beautiful design.

10 Amazing Reader Builds From Popular Mechanics Plans
Approximately $170 million in damages is caused to homes in the U.S. every year because of washing machine hose failures, according to State Farm Insurance. "We advise our customers to inspect their washing machine hoses regularly. Make sure the connections are secure," says Dick Luedke, spokesman for State Farm. "You should also make sure there are at least 4 inches of clearance between the water connection and the back of the washing machine. This reduces the chances that the hose will kink. We would also advise that you do not leave your washing machine running while you are not at home."
Reinforced rubber and stainless-steel hoses can break, even the ones that say "burst-resistant" or "burst-proof." The hoses typically fail at the same spot—the coupling. But cracks and leaks at the connection point are common, too, so check that as well. If your hoses are more than five years old, replace them with ones made from braided stainless steel. That $20 investment for a two-pack can eliminate thousands of dollars of damage from hoses that fail.
Coils underneath or behind a refrigerator attract dust, debris and dog hair. Besides being unsightly, dirty coils can restrict airflow and make the fridge work harder, which could shorten its life span and reduce its efficiency. "If coils get dirty enough to block the air exchange or reduce air exchange, then cleaning them will help improve the energy consumption and cooling capacity," says Lakshmanan Ramamoorthi, senior consumer scientist, refrigerator technology, for Whirlpool.
Use a refrigerator coil brush ($10 at home centers) to wipe the coils clean. If you have a newer fridge, you may be off the hook. Some new models have the coils encased, so cleaning isn't necessary. For the rest of us, clean the coils twice a year.
It's unlikely that dirty coils will shorten your appliance's life too much, but cleaning them could give you an energy efficiency boost. And while you're at it, follow these additional tips from Lucinda Ottusch, a consumer advocate at Whirlpool. "Reduce the quantity of 'old items' in the refrigerator that will no longer be used and block airflow from effectively cooling the other items. Adjust the controls for the refrigerator and freezer to meet your needs—having items that are colder than they need to be uses additional energy."

Dig These Discs :: Rihanna, Christina Aguilera, Kelly Clarkson, Calvin Harris, One Direction
Divas descend on December's Dig These Discs, with a long-awaited CD from Christina Aguilera, and a new collection of old hits from Kelly Clarkson. Rihanna rips out the hits in "Unapologetic," and music powerhouse Calvin Harris comes out from behind the scenes with his own selection. Teen heartthrobs One Direction finish things up.
"Unapologetic" (Rihanna)
One of the best artists recording today, Rihanna made a big splash when she hit the scene six years ago with her debut single from "A Girl Like Me." Since then, she's honed her skills in "Good Girl Gone Bad," "Rated R" and "Loud." Still, her voice is not perfect, her range is limited and she sings and curses as if she could cut a bitch. But that doesn't stop you from loving her. Like a moth to the flame, there is something about this island-born Barbados brat that is draws you in, despite the burn. Her brutish "fuck you" demeanor is thrilling, even if her reunion with brutish boyfriend Chris Brown isn't. He duets with her on the single "Nobody's Business," sampling Michael Jackson's "The Way You Make Me Feel." She launches the album with the intro, "Phresh Out The Runway," a hard-hitting, deliciously profane, fast-moving electronic tune that is as fresh as its name. She follows with the lead single "Diamonds," which is currently number two on the Billboard Hot 100, and although it is a simple song, there is something hypnotic about it. She sings, "You and I we're like diamond in the sky, you're a shooting star I see, a vision of ecstasy, when you hold me I'm alive, we're like diamonds in the sky," and it instantly becomes the story of every love you ever found and lost. Actually, that's the case with most of her songs, which may explain why she is the youngest solo artist to get 11 singles on the chart, and the highest-selling digital artist in U.S. history. Deep bass opens "Pour It Up," as the song profiles the naughty Rihanna who was rumored back in May [supported in part by her own Instagram photos] to be getting down with the strippers, singing, "strip clubs and dollar bills, and I still got my money." An odd pairing with Eminem results in "Numb," a song ostensibly about being high, "impaired/ no worse for wear." Anyway, it's nice to see him getting work. Rihanna teams up with Atlanta rapper Future for the electro track "Loveeeeeee Song," a deep R&B tune, as she makes an interesting argument for love, singing, "Why window shopping? You own it." The intensity builds on "Jump," which samples the Ginuwine tune, "Pony." Rihanna makes it her own. She teams up with David Guetta for the dubstep treat "Right Now," singing, "Tomorrow way too far away, and we can't get back yesterday/ but we young right now, we got right now." She shows her singing chops in the ballad "What Now," with the heartstrung lyrics, "I spend every hour just going through the motions/ I can't even get the emotions to come out/ dry as a bone but I just wanna shout." Less successful is her ballad with Mikky Ekko, "Stay." The later half of the album lags, with the bland "Get Over It" and "Lost in Paradise," which never quite hits its mark. Although "Love Without Tragedy" makes me want to shake Rihanna until she realizes you don't have to die for love, the line "I never thought this many people would even know my name" is touching and humanizes this good girl gone bad. Don't take it the wrong way, boo; as they say on the block, I ain't mad at ya. Rihanna will launch her "Diamond World Tour" in March 2013.
(Def Jam Recordings)
"Lotus" (Christina Aguilera)
Booty-shaking diva Christina Aguilera is back in the spotlight with "Lotus," her collection of 13 new hits destined to remind people exactly how hot her shit is. And after the heartbreak of the stinkers "Bionic" and "Burlesque," plus her public divorce, we could all use the reminder. She kicks things off with a dubstep, auto-tune vibe in "Lotus Intro," where she urges, "Rise up lotus, this is the beginning." The dramatic spoken-word break at the end is very reminiscent of Lady Gaga's style. The drama pours over into "Army of Me," where she compares the broken pieces of herself to an army rising up, where she is stronger, a fighter, "a thousand faces of me." Her yodeling vocals in "Red Hot Kinda Love" are catchy, reminiscent of Gwen Stefani's "The Sound of Music" samples, and she channels Rihanna in the heartbreaking confessional track, "Sing For Me" and "Cease Fire." Aguilera rocks in the infectious "Make the World Move," seizing upon the power of music to bring people together, singing, "Turn up the love, turn down the hate." Aguilera doesn't even want to know his name, singing "Its true what you heard/ I'm a freak I'm disturbed," in the erotically-charged, "Your Body." The dubstep flows in "Let There Be Love," a hot dance track. The fine piano intro in her ballad "Blank Page," hearkens back to her early work, allowing her to show her amazing vocal range. Say what you will, the girl can sing. "Around the World" has a island backbeat that suits Aguilera's work well, as does the filthy track, "Circles," in which she invites her enemy to sit and spin on her middle finger, with a few "motherfuckers" thrown in for good measure. In "Best of Me," Aguilera meshes electronic flourishes with acoustic guitar for a plugged-in song about heartbreak that morphs into an anthem of self-empowerment. She hits the sauce to forget about her heartbreak in the closer, "Just a Fool," which has a nice country twang to it, with guest vocals by country star Blake Shelton. For her first album in two years, Aguilera has seized upon all of the current popular fads in music, but somehow avoids having the result be derivative. "Lotus" comes off as a strong album, with several breakout tracks sure to see radio play.
"Greatest Hits" (Kelly Clarkson)
Singer Kelly Clarkson has made a career singing about her deluge of personal heartbreak, and her vow to never walk that path again. She made "American Idol" what it is, as winner of the inaugural season in 2002. Clarkson was immediately signed to RCA Records, and her 2002 single topped the Billboard Hot 100. Her first album "Thankful" had some hits, and lead to a rock album, "Breakaway." In this expansive collection of 17 of her best tracks, Clarkson kicks things off with what is perhaps her most famous hit from that sophomore album, "Since U Been Gone." This anthem of self-empowerment in the face of heartbreak has made her something of a heroine among women and teenage girls. The album version is clean and focuses on Clarkson's fine voice, which is rich and versatile. In 2009, she went mainstream with her fourth studio album, "All I Ever Wanted," featuring "My Life Would Suck With You," the second song on this best-of album. When it came out, the song quickly became Clarkson's own best-of, breaking records for the biggest leap to number one in a single week in the history of the Billboard Top 100 -- a record it still holds today. She taps into her female power in "Miss Independent," from her first album "Thankful," singing, "What happened to Miss No-longer-afraid?/ It took some time for her to see/ How beautiful love could truly be." Clarkson's voice has grown and matured over time, as evidenced by her 2011 breakout hit, "Stronger (What Doesn't Kill You)," another anthem of female empowerment, as she notes, "It doesn't mean I'm lonely when I'm alone." Her heartfelt ballads include many anguished tunes from her second album, "Breakaway": "Behind These Hazel Eyes," about being swallowed and spit out by love, and "Because of You," about finding oneself through the disappoint of another. "I'll spread my wings and learn how to fly...out of the darkness and into the sun," she sings in the title track, "Breakaway." And for pure love, nothing beats, "A Moment Like This," Clarkson's first single, released way back in 2002. On the flip side of this equation lies Clarkson's brash, never-again vein of songs, including, appropriately, "Never Again," lead single from her third, self-produced album "My December." The following track, "Already Gone," also fits into this category, and showcases Clarkson's high vocal range. "You don't know a thing about me," Clarkson levels in "Mr. Know It All," and in the kick-ass track, "Walk Away," she spits out, "I waited here for you like a kid waiting after school, So tell me how come you never showed?/ I gave you everything and never asked for anything/ And look at me, I'm all alone." The greatest hits compilation also contains a few nice surprises, among them a duet with Clarkson and country singer Jason Aldean in the twangy love ballad "Don't You Wanna Say," with Clarkson singing, "I don't just wanna make love, I wanna make love last." And in "People Like Us," she shares her hope for the future with those down on their luck, singing, "It's hard to get high when you're living on the bottom/ we are all misfits livin' in a world on fire, singing for the people like us." She dips into the easy-going, loving vibe of the '70s in "Don't Rush," with clap tracks and squealing electric guitar riffs. And just in time for the holidays, she closes the album with "I'll be Home For Christmas," a perennial holiday favorite. Although in truth, Clarkson is far too young to release a 'greatest hits' album, we'll gladly take it.

Cobalt's 360 Blends Performance and Luxury
Tested by Capt. Ron Svoboda
The largest boat in the Cobalt line is the 360. She is geared toward customers seeking the best that the cruising and performance boating worlds have to offer. By combining world-class quality and exciting performance, the engineers at Cobalt have truly developed a vessel with few compromises. This luxury performance cruiser combines contemporary styling, innovation and extensive attention to details.
The Walk-Thru
As we begin our tour of the 360, we find a large swim platform and a centerline transom walk-thru, both can be finished with optional teak. Flanking the port and starboard sides are sun lounges, drink holders and small storage hatches. Inside two of the hatches are waterproof stereo speakers, innovatively mounted to the under side of the hatch. When open, these speakers provide those aft in the water the opportunity to enjoy the music of the day.
Moving forward into the 360's cockpit, we find a large U-shaped settee to starboard and a smaller L-shaped settee to port. Just forward is a wet-bar with sink and storage cabinets below. Below all the cushions in the cockpit is storage space for large items such as safety gear or fenders.
The Helm
The starboard side helm is impressive with its array of gauges, controls and electronic instrumentation. The helm is almost two-thirds the width of the vessel and provides enough room for two at the captain's chair. The dash is finished in jet black with leatherette and real Bubinga wood accents. Everything is well laid out, easy to read and easy to use. Kiekhaefer controls come standard on this boat.
For 2003, the 360 is equipped with optional ZF electronic engine controls for the throttles and drives. These control units are among the latest 'fly-by-wire' technologies making their way to the consumer market place. The amazing ease of use does take some getting used to, since most of the other controls on the water these days require a heavy hand to strong arm the controls to perform. Another subtlety at the helm is the pop-out step and sure-footed access to the foredeck. Here you will find rubberized traction leading to the wide, folding glass windshield. Finishing off the cockpit amenities is a molded fiberglass radar arch to provide you with all the space you'll need for antennas and for securing the convertible top.
Below Deck
Access through the companionway is via a sliding, smoked acrylic door. A few steps down and you're in the 360's cabin, where the decor is that of a fine, European motor yacht. One of the trademarks of Cobalt's quality is their attention to detail. This is apparent in the cabin, where the handsomely appointed interior is finished in cherry wood and supple tan leather upholstery.
One of the first things to catch your eye below deck is the 360's galley, which is located to port. A beautiful Zodiac counter top is complimented by a polished stainless steel sink and faucet. Neatly concealed behind the cherry cabinet doors is a microwave oven and a refrigerator below.
Forward is a V-shaped, leather settee and cherry wood dining table. There is lots of room here to relax, or to enjoy your gourmet meals. This area converts into the main berth with the addition of three filler cushions. A CD stereo provides the cabin ambiance, along with a DVD player and flat screen TV monitor. These are located in a starboard side cabinet that also houses a cedar lined hanging closet and two drawers for your wardrobe items.
Directly aft of this cabinet is the head. Here you have a Vacu-flush toilet, vanity with sink, and shower. The 360's layout includes an aft cabin for your guests or children. It has a deep, double berth, but may be a bit claustrophobic for some of us.
The Business End
Back at the helm, we put the 360 through its paces. Cobalt offers several gasoline engine packages from either Volvo Penta or MerCruiser. If you wish to go with diesel engines, then you can choose from either MerCruiser or Volvo Penta power plants. Whether you choose gas or diesel, the stern drive configuration provides good space management and makes minor maintenance a breeze.
Performance and handling are remarkable for a boat of this size. There is some prop slip half way through the acceleration curve, but once on plane, the ride is excellent. The 360 is nimble and carves turns better than some sportboats that are half her size. With the effortless electronic throttles and superb power steering, we performed slaloms during the test at full throttle using literally one finger to steer.
The Cobalt 360 is a fine blend of performance and luxury. The only compromises I found were that the cabin headroom was awkward for us tall folks, and that the aft cabin could really only be enjoyed by children. But after driving this boat I quickly forgot about those things.
Cobalt is top of the line in quality, and you will pay for it. But your resale value will also be higher, and your problems should be far less. Someone once said, "you never regret buying the best."

Bethel College donors help keep costs low for our students, donating over $5 million dollars to programs and operations in 2011–2012. Your gift fosters a new generation of leaders, providing one of the top baccalaureate educations in the United States.
You may choose to support Bethel College by:
- making an online gift to Bethel College
- enrolling for automatic electronic funds transfer from your banking account
A gift to Bethel impacts the college in at least two ways. Not only does it provide funds—the more alumni who choose to support the college financially, the easier it is to show foundations and accrediting agencies of Bethel's strength, today and tomorrow. Don't let the size of the gift keep you from contributing to Bethel. Every gift is vital for our students.
A gift to Bethel allows new generations of students to explore their faith, their world and their minds in ways that generations have done before them. Take pride in being a part of something special. Make a gift: make a difference.

I just discovered this magazine and I love it. We have made tea a big part of our everyday indugence the last couple of years and have even visited the Charleston Tea Plantation twice. I took my daughter to a local Christmas tea last year and on Christmas Eve we did our own and had great fun. We were looking for more ideas and when I ran across this magazine I knew it was exactly what I needed. Reading it just relaxes me and I even ordered some back issues.
We are planning an Iced Tea Party for around Mother's Day and I'm anxious to try some of the wonderful recipes, and our Christmas Eve tea is going to become an annual tradition. I plan on subscribing for a long time.
A peaceful read with a nice cuppa tea, this magazine provides a slice of the tea scene and is packed with lovely photos. A great gift for Moms, Sisters, Friends, and anyone who might want a little quiet civility injected into their lives.
Am planning a tea party and this magazine gives me a clue on how to do it. I really enjoy the recipes and and the table settings.
A lovely magazine! beautiful pictures, tempting recipes, a wonderful treat to enjoy and take a break from daily chores. awash with decorating ideas and menus. i wonder if you could include calorie counts since i have been recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes.
Beautiful photos and great recipes if you love tea and sandwiches or desserts, just wish there was more every month!
Tea Time magazine is my favorite magazine and I get many magazine subscriptions. When I sit down to read Tea Time, I always relax and have a cup of tea.
Tea Time magazine is very well done with great recipes and ideas, I just wish there was more to it since it only comes 6 times a year.
My mother-in-law ordered Tea Time for me for my birthday. It's a nice read; some of the stories are way too short though and I wish they would have more on antique dishes. One story they had was on antique table clothes but it was just one short read, which was really disappointing.
Tea Time is my favorite magazine. I enjoy traveling to so many elegant tearooms to experience the ambiance and gentility via Tea Time Magazine. I'll never get there in my lifetime in person but I can visit them all in the pages of Tea Time. Join me = you'll love every single page.

Beyond the Hills (Dupa Dealuri)
As the film opens, Alina arrives to visit her friend Voichita, one of the nuns in training. As children, the two women lived together in an orphanage where the tough, short-tempered Alina served as a protector for her more delicate friend. Now, Alina wants Voichita to leave her cloistered life and return with her to Germany, but as the fateful hour draws near, Voichita seems disinclined to go, and so Alina stays on for a while, which is when the real trouble begins. The film is inspired by a case of alleged demonic possession that occurred in Romania's Moldova region in 2005.

Daniel Ricciardo was happy but exhausted after his maiden outing at an Australian Grand Prix weekend – and the young Aussie can't wait for his next chance
by Matthew Clayton
Late on a windy and cold evening at Albert Park, Daniel Ricciardo was emotionally spent – but still sporting his trademark wide grin.
Friday had been a whirlwind day.
After taking part in the first practice session of the Qantas Australian Grand Prix for Toro Rosso, the 21-year-old West Australian fulfilled a dream with his first drive in a Grand Prix car at a race weekend.
"It was a big buzz for me to go out there and get on track with 23 other drivers," Ricciardo said.
"Melbourne, Albert Park, my first time here … there were a lot of new factors for me. Just pulling out of the pits and leaving the box was a big moment. It's a little hurdle that I've now got over.
"I had the butterflies that I had the first time I ever drove the car. That was just the atmosphere and the situation, and I think next time I'll be more acclimatised with the environment."
Ricciardo will take part in every Friday practice session for Toro Rosso this season, but this weekend was the first time he'd ever been around the 5.303km Albert Park layout in any car. A quick walk around the track ahead of the race weekend gave him a taste of what to expect, and he now has a greater appreciation for the challenges the circuit offers.
"It's definitely bumpier than I expected," Ricciardo said of his first impressions.
"Turns 11 and 12 are awesome. I love a bit of high speed in corners, so that was fun. The whole track is actually very high speed for a street circuit.
"Turn 14 was the other one that got my attention. It's fifth gear, and when the rubber is down it's not even a corner where you brake – it's just a lift (of the throttle). Serious stuff!
"The track has got awesome flow. It's a shame I didn't get more laps on it, but hopefully next year I'll get a full weekend and then get a real feel for the circuit."
While Ricciardo is thought by many paddock insiders to be a strong chance of a permanent race seat in 2012, the young man himself isn't about to take anything for granted.
It was just four years ago that Ricciardo went to Italy to compete in Formula Renault for the first time, and while he's almost reached the top of his Red Bull-back career path in the few years since, he's well aware of the work still ahead of him.
"It's still a dream, but it's safe to say that it's a bit more than that now," he said of a spot on the 2012 grid.
"It's possible, which is a good word. Guaranteed? Nothing's ever guaranteed at the pinnacle of any sport. One or two bad races or bad events, and you're looking at a few negatives."
While his F1 commitments are over for the weekend, Ricciardo will still be on track today and tomorrow in the Red Bull Race Off, where he and former F1 driver David Coulthard, V8 Supercar star Rick Kelly and motorbike stuntman Robbie Maddison will battle in identically-prepared Renault Meganes. Ricciardo is looking forward to some more laps of the Melbourne layout – but laughed when asked how he'll approach this afternoon's five-lap race.
"After being in the F1 car, I'm a bit worried about my braking markers in the Megane," he grinned.
"I'm not sure how it'll go, but I'll be braking a bit later than the others, I think. I might make sure one of them is in front of me in case I need to really slow down …"

Fantasy Football Draft
Jamey Eisenberg Says Justin Forsett Has The Most Fantasy Value For The Ravens
CBS Sports fantasy football expert Jamey Eisenberg joined Ed and Steve to tell you who to draft and when to take them.
Fantasy Football: Draft Advice For A Competitive Team
In-season roster management is key to winning your fantasy football league, but the draft goes a long way towards determining the champ. Value is the most important word when it comes to the draft. Here are a few tips to stay a few moves ahead of your competitors.
Fantasy Football: Top 10 NFL Kickers To Draft
Let's not kid ourselves: a kicker is not going to win you a fantasy title. But in a tight match-up, you'll take all the points you can get. All of these players are last-round selections, but you might as well have a strategy for crafting your kicker rankings.
Fantasy Football: Top 10 NFL Wide Receivers To Draft
One of last year's top fantasy receivers, Josh Gordon, is facing a season-long suspension, but there are still plenty of talented wideouts to choose from. These players are studs no matter the scoring system.
Fantasy Football: Top 10 NFL Running Backs To Draft
Quarterbacks are breaking records left and right in the pass-happy NFL, but that makes high-caliber running backs all the more valuable. Many of last season's top performers appear on this list, but keep in mind there's usually a major bust or two, likely due to the heavy workload of the position causing a hangover effect.
Fantasy Football: Top 10 NFL Tight Ends To Draft
If you're not only ranking players, but also grouping them in tiers, tight ends are an interesting test case. Jimmy Graham is a one-man tier, with Gronkowski and Julius Thomas, both potential second-round picks, in the next group.
Fantasy Football: Top 10 NFL Defenses To Draft
Will new "points of emphasis," which may limit how defensive backs defend receivers, affect the physical Seahawks? Check back at midseason for an answer. For now, there's no reason to think the Seahawks will surrender the top spot.
Fantasy Football: Drafting Strategies
Fantasy football draft strategies depend on your league's settings and who's available. Read up on the different approaches.

Wayne Whigham had just one son but is being remembered as a father to many.
The Montgomery County Public Schools community is mourning the loss of Whigham, 63, who died suddenly March 14 after suffering complications from a surgery meant to address ongoing health issues.
Whigham, of Silver Spring, was director of the school system's appeals and transfers team, which works with students, principals and families to find solutions for students who have been suspended or expelled.
His family, friends and colleagues are remembering him as a good man who gave everyone a chance, a "perfect" father and husband who was always there, and a humorous guy with boundless energy who would always bring the room to laughter.
He touched many. More than 650 people showed up at his wake last week, and more than 100 signed an online "Legacy" obituary through The Washington Post.
Whigham started with the school system in 1975 as a teacher, then served in other administrative roles, such as principal of Martin Luther King Intermediate School, Bethesda Chevy Chase High School and Seneca Valley High School, before moving to central office.
His son, Christopher Whigham, and wife of 33 years, Mary Beth Waits, believe Whigham's overall outlook gave him a close connection with so many people.
Whigham believed every child should have a chance to succeed, and every boy should have a man to guide them, his family members said.
"Too many men have come up to me in recent weeks to tell me how much my dad meant to them as a father because they didn't have one," said Christopher Whigham, 28.
As the leader for the appeals team, Whigham often faced difficult children, angry principals and parents ready to sue, Waits said.
He was known for his ability to be blunt with students and hold them accountable, according to fellow employees and friends.
Principals who knew Whigham well talked about his uncanny ability to get through to students who were often the toughest or who needed the most help.
"Wayne always found a way to work with kids and love them, despite the fact that we don't always like them at a given moment," said Christopher Berry, principal of James Hubert Blake High School.
The job was his ministry, Waits said.
"It would have been hard and stressful for anybody by Wayne Whigham," Waits said.
Berry said he was the most "kid-centered" administrator he knew.
"He was all about creating opportunity for kids who had got themselves in a jam and needed some love and kindness to get them through," said Marc Cohen, principal of Seneca Valley High School.
Whigham was a mentor and friend to Berry, Cohen and many other principals in the system. Cohen said he could have been considered the "mayor of central office."
He was known for "keeping it real," Berry said.
"There was very little pretention about him," he said. "He was always who you saw it to be."
Many talked of his ability to poke fun in every situation.
"He said the most outrageous things that only he could get away with," Waits said. "People would say, 'Man, Wayne, only you.'"
He was also a self-trained guitarist, had a deep appreciation for music, and made the best barbeque sauce, his friends said.
People remembered him not only for his personality, but for the lasting effect he made on the school system in leadership, discipline and race relations, said Fred Evans, past principal of Gaithersburg High School.
Whigham, who was black, had a desire to see equal discipline for all students, Evans said.
A higher percentage of black students, specifically boys, receive out-of-school suspensions, compared to their peers. In Montgomery County in 2012, about 5.7 percent of black students received out-of-school suspensions, compared to less than 3 percent of students in other racial subgroups, according to the school system's safety at a glance report.
Whigham saw that some of the problem was in principals' attitudes with addressing students of different races, Evans said.
"What too often happens is we come down harder on certain groups, mainly African-American and Hispanic males," Evans said.
Whigham set out to see that every student had opportunities, regardless of color, Waits said.
"He always felt like — who speaks for them?" Waits said.
Whigham was leading the charge in dealing with changes to the school system's discipline policies coming down from the Maryland State Department of Education. The department wants all local systems to eliminate the racial disparities within three years and to shorten long-term suspension to less than 10 days.
Whigham was mentioned in a Gazette article last school year after talking about the changes at a meeting.
While Whigham felt like the policies were too sweeping, he saw the changes as a chance to better train principals, Waits said.
Whigham was "a true social justice warrior in every sense of the word," Superintendent Joshua P. Starr said.
Berry and Cohen said they attempt to model his leadership at his schools.
The school system will realize how irreplaceable he is, Waits said.
She said she'll miss her dapper, broad-shouldered, funny husband, with whom she shared stories and laughter.
"He was an amazing man," she said.

Healthy Baby Necessities On the Go
Erica Harris
Location: Los Angeles
Impact: Giving parents access to healthy necessities for their children
Erica Harris never thought much about the environment or about eating healthy until she arrived on the UC Davis campus.
"It opened my world," said Harris, who went on to graduate in 2008 with a bachelor's degree in a surprising field: clinical nutrition.
The campus's focus on sustainability and her studies in nutrition gave her the foundation to pursue her passion: giving parents an easy and convenient way to provide healthy food and necessities for their children.
She is the CEO and founder of Happy Baby Vending Inc., an eco-friendly company headquartered in Altadena, Calif., that sells healthy and organic snacks, diapers and other products through vending machines, online and other distribution channels.
The idea for the vending machines came after Harris attended a competition where a mother needing a diaper for her baby scrambled to find one from the other women there. Happy Baby vending machines are now located in Southern California with plans to expand nationwide.
Leslie Butler, a lecturer in the Department of Agricultural and Resource Economics, encouraged Harris to participate in the Sacramento Entrepreneurship Academy.
At the academy, she learned about the UC Davis Graduate School of Management's Big Bang! Business Competition, which helps entrepreneurs establish successful businesses. She won second prize and $4,500 in seed money in the 2012 competition.
"It gave me the confidence that I was on the right track," she said.
Harris credits Vita Cooper, her undergraduate adviser in the nutrition department, for providing the support to pursue her dream.
"I wasn't just a number. I was a person," she said.

cool thanks for the advice... thats the way i look at whats the point in buying a MM140 and then 2 years down the road when its way undersized then i will end up buying the 252 anyways so why not just save up and buy one machine. but i was just concerned that maybe you coudnt turn down the 252 enough to weld thin things like sheet metal.
Sundown do you have a link to the gun your talking about, im still learning so i dont completly understand you, i thought you only used spoolguns for aluminum

I would reccomend the millermatic passport plus. it is a realy versitial mechine. it has a internal shielding gas bottle, wich is really good for for taking it to a jobsite and other places where you cant lug around a large cyclender. is also has mvp plugs, wich allows you to connect it to 120 and 230. its ment to be portable it weighs only 50 lbs, that and the mvp plugs along with the internal shielding gas bottle makes it a super portable machine. it will also weld aluminum with the addition of a spoolmate 100 gun. but one of the disadvnatges is that is welds a little less thicker than the millermatic 252 but it costs less. it is a great machine and it would be perfect for what you need to do and more!

Passport / 252
We were one of the first shops to latch on to the new 252 when they came out and we have put about 60 rolls of wire through it completely trouble free. Some body has posted info about the passport that can weld just as good. I guess at the same voltage it can, but the passport can't hold a candle to the 252's power and over all specs. Cost more but also does more!

If machine usage is in a shop/garage enviroment, and the budget can afford it, out of what has been discussed, the 252 would be a very good choice. The 252 offers you substantually more power and duty cycle then the Passport.
I haven 't ran a 252, but I use to own a 251 and it performed quite well with an .023 solid wire and C-25 on 22 ga sheet metal.
If the sticker price of the 252 is a little to steep, the 212 would most definitely not be considered a compromise. The 212 offers plenty of top end power and duty cycle for anything you should need to weld on a Jeep. Once again though, I haven't ran a MM 212, but I do own a MM 210 and it performs very well with an .023 solid wire on 22 ga.
If I was going to purchase a lighter duty 180+ amp unit for home use, I would save myself $600+ and go with either a HH 187 or HH 210, over a Passport. The $600+ saved, could be used to purchase quite a few clamps. Plus, both Hobart units are real nice performers. They're most definitely very good thin ga sheet metal units.

Anyone who thinks the Passport Plus will weld thicker material than the MM252 just hasn't used a MM252/MM251. That was just an absurd statement from someone "not in the know".
The 30A Spoolgun I mentioned in the previous post is made by Miller. You can check their "Products" section or pick up a Miller catalog to get a full description. The 30A signifies that the gun has a 30' lead and is air cooled. There is also a 15A spoolgun, which is the same gun with a 15' lead. The most significant difference in the 30A/MM252 combo, is that the wire feed speed can be adjusted directly from the gun rather than having to go to the main welder. The amp rating is also significantly higher (200A) than the 3035 (150A @ 60% DC).
While the spoolgun is mainly used for aluminum (reduces feed problems), it can also be used for solid or fluxcore wire. The extra reach (30' vs 15') can sometimes be a big advantage. (Think welding in the bed of a dumptruck or on the deck of a boat)
Hope this helps.

Roadrunner & Artist News
Posted on February 12, 2008Remember hearing about Ten Ton Hammer, the famed Machine Head cover band, playing a show on Halloween? In fact, what was to be their second show EVER. Well, have you made the connection? Ten Ton Hammer IS Machine Head. Oh, such a grand tradition Halloween is...and much to the credit and creativeness of Machine Head, they played a hometown show on Halloween under the moniker Ten Ton Hammer. AND, they dressed up too. Like what? Check out the following Ten Ton Hammer review as written by US Road Crew member Natalie Fuellenbach: "Machine Head didn't end up dressing in Star Wars costumes...they were an 80's hair band....well Motley Crue to be exact. hehehe. They started the show out by playing an old 80's song...and they ended the show with "Iron Man"... I had a great time! It was so fun....the drink for the night was the browneye heheheh. I have to say this was the best halloween yet." 'Anyway, that was how Machine Head spent Halloween. Pretty cool, huh. Check out the gallery for photos.
Currently www.ESPguitars.com is running a couple interviews online - one with Dry Kill Logic bassist Dave Kowatch, and the other with Machine Head guitarist Ahrue Luster. Check em out...
