Are You Ready?.

As is tradition every spring, March has come to an end. April has begun and baseball is abound. Roster decisions are being argued upon for virtually every team and the gates open Monday for the start of the 2009 Major League Baseball season.

This offseason has been one of economics for many as free agents found it the most “interesting” offseasons to find themselves a job. Many players held out looking for higher paying offers, and many took paycuts entering the season. Organizations are aware of the economic recession, and ticket prices have largely remained the same from last season. Regardless of the financial climate the world has found itself in, baseball has always offered fans an escape from the world’s problems and offered a form of entertainment, relaxation, and thrills.

Baseball is back for the start of a new season. 162 games of successes, of more failures, and of a common competition to the holy grail of baseball, the World Series. It is only April, and still a day ’til gates open for Opening Day at ballparks across the country (and Canada), but the race has begun for October baseball.

Are you ready?

Golden Gate Sunset.

Beautiful capture.

As today marks 300 views to this blog, a small number, but a milestone nonetheless, I wanted to share a picture I found on my Flickr homepage. It’s linked back to the creator’s Flickr for larger viewing. This image has creative composure and captures the sunset at one of America’s landmarks perfectly. I’m diggin’ the bokeh.

On January 20th, viewers will be able to email photos to CNN, which will in turn will import those photos to Microsoft’s PhotoSynth application, to render (hopefully) a true to life 3D model of Washington DC as the festivities unfold.

At 12pm EST, the Moment will happen. President-Elect Barack Obama will shed the ‘elect’ from his name as he places his hand on the Bible and takes the presidential oath of office. And we will get to see that moment in unprecidented HD coverage, via the news networks on tv and this year, online, and even on your iPhone.

Common, if this makes Wolf Blitzer giddy, it’s gotta be big.
