Recently, we discovered a different sort of nest among the birds in the Marshes of Indiana exhibit at the Joseph Moore Museum. A tiny door on the side of the exhibit leads into a well-furnished, one-room house fashioned from a portable snake cage. The apparently tiny residents of this mysterious abode have impressed us with their creative use of objects found around the museum, such as sea shells for beds and table settings and a piece of turtle shell for a door knocker. After doing some research, we came across pictures and stories of similar doors and abodes in business throughout Ann Arbor, Michigan. Ann Arborite Jonathan B. Wright calls the residents of the tiny dwellings "Urban Fairies". Curious individuals and families have developed a map of the fairy doors in Ann Arbor and marveled as the number of residences—and their fan base—have grown.
Just as people in Ann Arbor observed, where there is one house full of fairies, more are bound to start appearing. We'll be on the lookout for more fairy houses here in Richmond, and you should too! If you find any, send us a picture (firstname.lastname@example.com) and we'll post it. If you have questions about how the Fairies chose the Joseph Moore Museum, we'll be happy to answer your questions at the same email address.
If you want to find out more about the Urban Fairies, check out this YouTube video interview with one of the Fairies' main chroniclers, and this one about the philosophical implications of fairy doors and local pride, an NPR article, and check out the Urban Fairies Operations homepage!
Don't forget to leave the fairies a little housewarming gift-they appreciate a little art, a nice knick-knack, or anything miniature!
The fairies are really taking off here in Richmond! Two more business have discovered fairy doors inside their establishments.
The fairies at the The Olde North Chapel took the inspiration for their front door from the stained-glass double doors of the chapel.
This tall townhouse must give the faires a work out! (Maybe it has an elevator?) Stop by Veach's Toy Station to peek inside and see for yourself!
Fairies love visitors (and the little presents, like beads and tiny erasers, left behind). What would you leave?
With so many fairies moving in around Richmond, the Richmond-Wayne County Convention and Tourism Bureau is making a map of all their homes to help them feel welcome. Keep an eye out for it in June!

There's no more cash for state and local governments in the latest round of federal spending to prop up the economy.
The Poisoned Bill
State budget cuts are undermining national health reform.
Imbalance of Powers
The feds aren't just handing out money -- they're redistributing clout.

A Time for Strings

NCLB on the Ropes
The fine print in the federal education law may be its undoing.
Department of Yesterday
Somebody needs to push EPA into the 21st century.
No Political Traction
Federalism isn't irrelevant to the 2008 presidential campaign. It's just that no candidate is framing ways for the feds to deal with the big issues.
Build, Crumble and Build More
Why don't we fix old roads and bridges? Because it's more fun to make new ones.
Homeland Psychiatry
War veterans are coming home in worse mental shape than anybody expected.

Border Wars

Looking For a Real Crisis: Try Medicaid

Special Dilemma
The feds are promising to help with special education costs. They've been making that promise for the past 30 years.

I can safely say that nobody enjoys personal finance. It is a necessary evil for most. The popular CoinKeeper app for iOS has now been released for Android devices and attempts to add a level simplicity into paying the bills.
At the heart of daily finance is tracking daily expenses. Without consistently tracking what you spend on a daily basis, the big picture of where your money is going will be nearly impossible to visualize. CoinKeeper for iOS and now Android breaks down the routine process of tracking daily expenditures to a process of simply moving coins to their appropriate buckets.
Once you set up your income sources, accounts & expense categories, you can start moving coins from/to appropriate locations to represent expenditures. For example, when you get paid, you can move a coin from an income source to an account. Every time you spend money, you can move coins from credit/ATM/debit cards, or you wallet to expense categories. Moving coins will trigger additional options (dollar amount of transaction & date) for more detailed tracking. As you move coins around, the app tracks your spending and can provide detailed reports about what, when, and where you spend your money.
You can also create budgets, set goals, and get points for reaching goals, adding a little bit of gamification to make your finances more fun.
I messed around with the free trial version and there seems to be no limit to the amount of customization or detail to keep track of your daily spending. Ponying up for a premium subscription gives you the ability to backup your data in the cloud, sync your data with multiple devices, budget sharing with family and friends, and other features.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – The Ivy League released the names of 80 student-athletes, including the five male and five female honorees from Harvard, who have earned spring 2013 Academic All-Ivy League honors.
The recipients are key contributors on officially recognized varsity teams who have cumulative grade point averages of at least 3.0. Each of the eight Ivy League universities nominates five men and five women from its eligible student-athletes.
Two members of the heavyweight crew team, a lightweight crew member, a tennis player and a lacrosse player were represented by the five men's nominees while the women's recipients were composed of two members of the lightweight crew team, a tennis player, a member of the water polo team and a track and field student-athlete.
Senior lacrosse player Jason Gonos served as a team captain while earning All-New England first team during his final campaign in Cambridge. The senior star anchored the defensive unit that allowed 9.97 goals per game; he ranked fourth on the team with 27 ground balls and was second with 11 caused turnovers. He was also an Inside Lacrosse Preseason All-America honorable mention.
Gonos was joined on the team for the first time by senior Andy Nguyen of the men's tennis team. The Phoenix, Ariz., native helped lead Harvard to back-to-back Ivy League titles and two straight NCAA tournament appearances. Nguyen was selected for the All-Ivy League second team for both singles and doubles.
Nguyen was joined by fellow senior David Fuller of the men's heavyweight crew team. During his four-year campaign at Harvard, Fuller never lost a dual meet. He was a member for the first varsity boat and served as the coxswain for the Crimson's second place finish at the IRA National Championship regatta. Fuller also served as the coxswain for Harvard's win at Eastern Sprints.
Teammate Josh Hicks joined Fuller as a first-time recipient of the award. The senior helped lead Harvard to a second-place finish at the IRA National Championship regatta. He was a rower for the first place finish at Eastern sprints, as well as a member of the first varsity boat.
Senior Nicholas Gates , representing the lightweight crew team, rounded out the men's representatives. Gates rowed for the Harvard's varsity eight national championship and Eastern Sprints winning boat.
On the women's side, senior Mary Hirst of the women's track and field team was named to her first academic All-Ivy team. The 2013 Ivy League heptathlon champion broke the school record in the event, becoming the first woman ever to eclipse 5,000 points. She was named Outstanding Field Performer of the Meet at the Heptagonal Championships, capturing first place in the high jump, as well as the heptathlon. Hirst qualified for the NCAA championships in the high jump where she earned honorable mention All-America status at the event.
Claire Harmange, sophomore member of the women's lightweight crew, earned her first Academic All-Ivy recognition. Harmange was a member of the first varsity boat that finished second in the nation. She contributed to the varsity eight's EAWRC sprints championship, which was the team's first title since 2004. Senior teammate Emma Lukasiewicz joined Harmange as a first-time recipient of the award. She was also a member of the first varsity boat that finished second in the nation.
Senior co-captain Aisha Price, a member of the women's polo team, is also a first time recipient of the award. During her senior campaign at Harvard she was named to the CWPA Southern Division first team and the CWPA Eastern Championship second team. She led her team in goals (79), assist (45), and steals (72). Price was also a member of the women's soccer team.
Representing the women's tennis team was senior and two-time captain Hideko Tachibana, who became the second women's tennis player in school history to be named to the All-Ivy first singles team three times. During her senior year she went 10-8 at No. 1 singles and 12-6 in doubles.

Bad enough I got drafted into Steel Battalion's janky, totally unplayable war, but what made things worse was having to fight alongside a guy with pee-covered hands. Oh, and another guy who apparently likes having unholy relations with Vertical Tanks.
The moment captured above happens in Steel Battalion's tutorial and it stuck out to me the very first time I played. I understand times are rough during post-apocalyptic wartime but, dammit, good hygiene could just save your life. Also, if you're not going to wash your hands after peeing on them, keep your apples* to yourself, soldier boy.
I just watched this video again before posting and noticed that the other squad member who's sitting in the Vertical Tank looks like he's humping it. Thank God that's not a gesture that you'll need to do in the game.
*BTW, developers, if you're going to go there, they really should have been Golden Delicious apples…

Sorry guys. Times a billion. That was pretty hectic, non? Eventually we all ended up chatting on Meebo, and I couldn't figure out how to embed it on to the blog...bad planning on my part. Maybe Belle and I will just video chat by ourselves and I'll tape it with my Canon or something. Thanks for hanging in there. Allow these epic Nick Knight shots to ease your anger:

Book Reviews
Gerstenberg, Charles William. Materials
of Corporation Finance. Third revised
edition. (New York, Prentice-Hall,
Inc., 1915. 1034 p.)
The opening sentence of the preface to
this book sounds the key-note. The statement
is therein made that "This source
book has been compiled to facilitate the
study of corporation finance in classes
where the use of the original documents is
impossible or impracticable."
It is not a difficult matter to obtain specimen
stocks, bonds, and bonds and mortgages.
It is comparatively easy to obtain,
in pamphlet form, specimen corporate
mortgages and other instruments related
to corporation finance. The time and effort,
however, involved in such procedure
operate to discourage the resourceful
teacher who hits upon such idea as an adjunct
to his teaching equipment.
The actual documents may be more
Striking, but it is certainly very useful to
have the text of a large number of representative
instruments reproduced as they
have been in the book in question. There
are comparatively few of the author's own
words in the text. There are very few pictorial
There are too many items in the table
of contents to warrant giving them here.
The assortment, however, is a rich and
varied one, embracing such documents as
the amended certificate of incorporation of
the United States Steel Corporation; voting
trust agreement, International Harvester
Company; corporate mortgage,
Jones & Laughlin Steel Company; agreement
preliminary to the formation of the
American Cigar Company; etc.
Not the least important part of the book
is the introduction, which treats the bibliography
of the subject in an extremely
interesting manner. For example: "The
subject of corporate financial advancement
can best be studied in connection with annual
reports. A comparison of the experiments
of good and bad reports may be had
by studying on the one hand, the Westing-house,
(page 627), and New Haven,
(page 663); and on the other, report
of the American Glue Company (page
7 8 2 ) . "

BRAMPTON, Ont. - A police officer who was shot at a Toronto-area courthouse remained in hospital in stable condition, alert and speaking with his family, police said Saturday.
Const. Mike Klarenbeek, 53, was providing security at the Brampton courthouse Friday morning when a man walked in and opened fire.
The officer, who served with the Peel Region police force west of Toronto, was wounded and his assailant was killed by police gunfire.
A spokeswoman with the province's police watchdog, which is investigating the incident, says in an email the man was 46-years-old and that his family has not consented to the release of his name.
The Special Investigation's Unit's Jasbir Brar added that investigators are reviewing how two officers handled the incident.
The motive of the 46-year-old, who police believe is from Brampton, is not known.
Klarenbeek, a 30-year police veteran described as a family man, was taken to a Toronto trauma centre.
In a statement released by police, his wife Lynn said the family is thankful to everyone who has offered support "through this difficult time," including paramedics, police and members of the public.
"Mike specifically wanted to thank a nurse, who was at the courthouse that day. She was the first to tend to him, before the paramedics arrived. He says without her help, it may have had a different outcome."
Peel police thanked people who sent along well wishes for the officer through social media.
"There are so many tweets being sent for Cst. Klarenbeek that I am unable to respond to all, but please be assured everyone is appreciated," Peel police said on their Twitter feed.
"Your prayers worked and he is doing well! Thank you all."
The Special Investigations Unit is automatically brought in cases where police are involved in a situation that results in death or serious injury.

Business card, simple logo and website banner. Easily identifible from a distance.
Silver Addict
Silver Addict does not have a tagline at the moment, but open for suggestions
Desired Color Scheme:
Up to you - but really only want 1 bold colour, perhaps with 1 or 2 secondary colours to compliment.
Desired Style:
The content including photos will be very similar to our sister company http://www.detailjewelry.com - however Detail is more wholesale focused, whereas Silver Addict needs to be fun and retail minded.
Accepted File Formats:
vector based for business card and logo, Fireworks for banner
I am wanting to upgrade my current business image, which includes launching my website.
Silver Addict is funky jewellery business, which sells predominately sterling contempary silver jewellery. My target auidence are 20-60 females, but I get plenty of male customers too, so I do not want the image to scream too girly!
I want the the logo, business card and banner to be streamlined and not too busy.
Need the logo to be easily reproduced on stickers and a stamp - so it needs to be fairly clean, and not too fussy.
I assume that the same person who designs the logo/business card would also do the banner, as I do not need code.
Good luck!

Hi Archinect!
ArchitectureBoston, a quarterly publication of the Boston Society of Architects, is undergoing a change in leadership. The founding editor, Elizabeth Padjen, is stepping down after fourteen years of service and Renée Loth, a Boston Globe columnist and formerly the paper's editorial page editor, will be taking command.
The current issue (Spring 2012) of ArchitectureBoston bridges the gap in this change of leadership. Appropriately enough, this issue called "Change" and is guest edited by David Hacin FAIA. In December, a number of young architects and other recent graduates were gathered by Nicole Fichera for a discussion, and I was happy to be included among this group.
We talked about the role of architecture in today's world, our own career plans and alternative modes of practice, and why architects talk so little about buildings. The discussion has been published under the title Wide Open: Young designers discuss their professional horizons and architecture's future and you can also download it as a PDF here.

Apple is up a huge 6.69 percent, a massive move considering that it's a company with a market cap over $500 billion.
So how rare is a move like this?
Jonathan Krinsky at Miller Tabak breaks it down:
As of 3:25 PM, AAPL is up 6.81%, which may sound like a lot for the world's biggest market cap., but since 2003, the stock has seen 22 bigger moves to the upside. The biggest was a 13.90% move higher on October 13th, 2008 in the depths of the financial crisis.
Krinsky goes on to note, however, than since the 2009 lows, this is the 3rd biggest move ever, and the 2nd biggest this year, with the stock having rallied nearly 9 percent after its April 25 earnings report.

Hyannis Returns To Top Spot
year ago, the Hyannis Harbor Hawks brought up the rear in the Cape
Cod League for the second season in a row, posting just a 14-30
record overall.
the 2011 Cape season had even reached the midway mark, Hyannis had
already equaled its win total of a year ago by going 14-7—best mark
in the Cape League, acknowledged as the nation's top summer
their startling turnaround, the Harbor Hawks have not only been the
talk of the Cape Cod League this summer, but summer baseball overall
as they moved to No. 1 again in Perfect Game's weekly ranking of
the nation's Top 25 summer-league teams.
main difference this year is that the guys we recruited showed up,"
said Hawks coach Chad Gassman, who oversaw his club's two
last-place finishes. "This is the team we picked and these guys are
coming together.
year, we lost nine players to Team USA and the draft. That's not
complaining; that's just the reality of this league. It happens to
every team and last year we just got hit hard."
surging Harbor Hawks have seen a dramatic change in fortune, both on
the mound and at the plate. The team is hitting .257 this year (as
opposed to .227 in 2010) and has knocked off a full run from a 3.53
ERA last season to a 2.46 mark this year.
players that have played key roles this summer for the Hawks are the
Jacksonville University duo of sophomore first baseman Adam Brett
Walker (.253-3-12), one of the league's top run producers, and
sophomore outfielder Dan Gulbransen (.317-0-3). Both are Wisconsin
high-school products who starred last summer in the Great Lakes
League before enjoying productive seasons during the spring at
Jacksonville. Walker hit .403-13-75, while Gulbransen hit .370-6-52.
the mound, the Harbor Hawks have gotten solid seasons from Cal State
Fullerton sophomore righthander Dylan Floro (1-0, 1.17, 21 IP/17 SO),
Oklahoma freshman lefthander Ryan Gibson (2-0, 0.00, 11 IP/11SO) and
Purdue sophomore closer Nick Wittgren (3-0, 0.96, 3 SV).
think the most effective part of our game right now is offense,"
said Gassman, "We're causing activity on the base paths and just
making things happen."
Cape Cod League team has been ranked No. 1 in PG's Top 25 every
week this summer, with Hyannis replacing Harwich atop the rankings.
The Harbor Hawks topped the season's initial poll.
the top teams in the Northwoods and Coastal Plain leagues, generally
acknowledged as the second- and third-strongest summer leagues,
continue to push the top Cape teams. With 23 wins apiece, most of any
summer team, the CPL's Edenton Steamers and Northwoods League's
Mankato MoonDogs, have moved into the Nos. 2-3 spots respectively.

I want to be able to declare a restriction in C++ so that a functor object can not change it's state or the state of any object it has a reference to upon calling the functor. This would have to be something like an "absolute const" object. At the same time I would like to be able to pass arguments upon calling the function object who's state it can change.
I need this because these functor objects will be scheduled between threads and I want to make sure that executing them only affects objects from the targeted thread, passed as arguments. This way I can guarantee no concurrency issues will occur.
something like this:
I fear that C++ supports no such restrictions. If so, does anyone know any C++ extensions or any other languages that do?Code://instances on thread 1 class TargetedFunctor { public: TargetedFunctor(...); virtual void operator(Target &target) absolute_const; }; // At some point thread 1 calls x.scheduleFunctor(f, 42); //instances on thread 2 class Queue{ public: // threadsafe method void scheduleFunctor(absolute_const TargetedFuntor &f, Time when){ ... } }; //At time "when" thread 2 calls f(target);

Harvard possesses one of the longest and proudest traditions in college football. From the program's founding days in 1874, through seven National Championships, and now in the days of the prestigious Ivy League, Harvard has been a leader in the sport. Here is a look at some of the memorable events in Crimson football history:
- Photo Gallery of Harvard Football Traditions
- Photo Gallery of Harvard Football Pregame Tailgates
- Photo Gallery of the Harvard-Yale Rivalry
May 14, 1874
-Football is born in Cambridge as Harvard accepts a proposal from McGill University for a two-game series at Jarvis Field. Harvard wins the opener, 3 goals to 0. The schools battle to a 0-0 draw the following afternoon.
June 4, 1875-Harvard plays its first-ever intercollegiate game, facing Tufts. Just as historic is that the Crimson is outfitted in a football uniform, believed to be the first time a team has been so identified. The squad is adorned in the school colors, with a uniform of white shirts and pants, with crimson trimming and crimson hose.
November 13, 1875-Harvard and Yale play for the first time. The Crimson wins this initial meeting, held at Hamilton Field in New Haven, with four goals and four touchdowns to no goals and no touchdowns for the Elis. A group of 150 Harvard faithful makes the journey on the evening train from Boston.
October 31, 1881-Harvard plays the first East-West intersectional football game ever as it hosts Michigan at the South End Grounds in Boston. The Crimson takes a bite out of the Wolverines, 4-0, as part of a 6-1-1 season.
January 6, 1885-Believing that the sport had degenerated into "modified mayhem", the Athletic Committee presents a report to the Harvard faculty which bans football from campus that coming fall.
November 3, 1886-Rule changes allow football to return to Harvard in 1886. The Crimson rolls to a 156-0 win over Exeter, its highest single-game total ever. Harvard will establish a national collegiate record for points, amassing 765 during its 12-2 campaign. The record stands to this day.
March 14, 1889-Harvard holds what is believed to be the nation's first-ever spring football practice when team captain Arthur J. Cumnock leads the team in drills on Jarvis Field.
November 22, 1890-Harvard captures its first of seven national championships! The Crimson finishes 11-0 and defeats Yale, 12-6, on the season's final day.
November 30, 1893-William H. Lewis becomes Harvard's first black captain when he is elected for the honor prior to the Pennsylvania game. He replaces B. G. Waters, who was injured a week earlier against Yale. Lewis, enrolled in the Harvard Law School, held a similar post while attending Amherst in 1891. Lewis goes on to be elected to the Cambridge City Council as a Republican in 1899, is elected to the Legislature in 1901, and named Assistant United States Attorney for Boston in 1903. In 1910, Lewis is appointed by President Taft as Assistant Attorney-General of the United States.
November 30, 1893-The first football scoreboard is used. The Harvard Athletic Association unveils this invention of Arthur Irwin, a Bostonian and a professional baseball player and manager, in the Crimson's 26-4 win over Pennsylvania on Thanksgiving Day.
October 1, 1898-An 11-0 win over Williams starts the Crimson on a 32-game unbeaten streak (31-0-1) that continues until the final game of the 1900 campaign. Along the way, Harvard captures national titles in 1898 and 1899.
October 31, 1903-Glenn S. "Pop" Warner, coach of the famed Carlisle Indians, introduces the hidden ball trick in a game against Harvard. The ploy is unleashed during the second half kickoff, and the resulting touchdown moves Carlisle ahead, 11-0. The Crimson delivers the Halloween day treat, however, winning 12-11.
November 14, 1903-Harvard Stadium, the nation's first permanent concrete stadium for athletics, opens when Harvard faces Dartmouth.
September 29, 1906-Harvard plays its first game since the introduction of the forward pass. The rule change was necessitated by the increasingly brutal nature of football as a way to open up the game. The configuration of Harvard Stadium, with its stands close to the playing field, forced the rules committee to opt for this innovation rather than widen the field by 40 feet.
November 7, 1908-The legendary Jim Thorpe and his Carlisle squad visit the Stadium. Thorpe is shut down and his squad blanked, 17-0, as part of Harvard's 9-0-1 season.
November 20, 1909-Hamilton Fish, a two-time All-American in an era when only 11 players earned the distinction, completes his career at Harvard. The rugged 6-4, 200-pound tackle graduated cum laude in 1910 and rose to the rank of Major in the Fourth Division Infantry during World War I. From 1920 until 1946, he was elected to the United States Congress as a representative from New York.
November 18, 1911-Harvard embarks on its school-record 33-game unbeaten streak with a 5-3 win over Dartmouth at the Stadium. The streak covers the entire 1912, 1913, and 1914 seasons and the first four games of 1915. The Crimson went 30-0-3 before Cornell finally put a halt to the streak with a 10-0 win on October 23, 1915.
November 21, 1914-The great career of Charlie Brickley '15 comes to a conclusion with a 36-0 rout of Yale in New Haven. Hampered by an injury for part of the year, Brickley still adds one extra point to the cause. He remains the Crimson's all-time scoring leader with 215 points.

Yale got the ball back and converted a pair of first downs to move the ball to its own 37 as the clock crept inside the four-minute mark. Yale eventually found itself in fourth down with 22 yards to go from its 25 yard line at 2:40 on the clock. With the league's best punter in Tom Mante waiting to boot it down field, new Yale coach Tom Williams instead called an improbable reverse run on a fake punt. John Powers evaded a would-be tackler in the backfield and moved behind a wall of blockers along the left sideline but Collin Zych blew up a double team block and Anthony Spadafino stopped Powers seven yards shy, giving Harvard the ball at Yale's 40 yard line with 2:25 as a stunned Yale crowd looked on. It took Harvard just three plays to devastate the crowd again as Chris Lorditch cut across the middle of the field and then swiftly past two defenders up the seam as QB Collier Winters lofted a perfect pass over the inside coverage. Thirty two yards later, Harvard suddenly led 14-10 before linebacker Jon Takamura finished the victory with an interception.

Could Pena be gone in 2010?
Mike Carlson / AP
It is kind of weird to think of this Tampa Bay Rays squad without a few of its veteran players gone before the 2010 season. It is not like with the Free Agent market ready to heat up on Friday the Rays are looking to unload or even sign someone of extreme value to replace a current Rays player, but would you see the Tampa Bay Rays in the same powerful light if they were missing a player like Carlos Pena?
When I remember back over the last two seasons for memorable Rays moments, or game changing plays, Pena's name seems to be one of the first ones to pop into my mind every time. His style of cool,calm and collected attitude during the game has taken both himself and this team to new heights since the Rays signed him to a minor league deal several years ago. And Pena's laid-back style both at the plate and in the field has risen his game to extreme heights while he has been here.
He has been the upbeat and soft-spoken leader of this Rays clubhouse ever since he stepped into it back in 2007. Who can forget his finest moment of upbeat personality when even after he was told by Rays Manager Joe Maddon that he was being optioned to the minor leagues before the end of Spring Training in 2007, Pena remained focused and clear that he would soon see his Rays teammates. And who can ever forget when Pena disclosed his revelation of a premonition during a night time dream of him being on that charter flight with his Rays teammates to New York to start the 2007 season.
That in itself tells me that this Rays team might have been his squad all along, and we were just passengers on his ride to the top. From the beginning of his rebirth in the MLB by winning the 2007 Comeback Player of the Year award, to his first Gold Glove and Silver Slugger Award, the Rays GQ-styled first baseman has gained not only the respect of the fans, but of MLB players throughout the league. And I have a feeling his 2009 All Star selection is not the last time we will see Pena accepting an award…..not by a long shot.
So when a fellow Rays blog mentioned that maybe it was time for the Rays to consider trading Pena before his contract is up at the end of 2010, it kind of shocked me that we might be seeing the end to another era here in Tampa Bay. That after all the growth we have seen by Pena and this team, we might end up seeing him traded away late in the 2010 season, or maybe even packing up and saying goodbye at this time next season.
And right now both those notions do not seem like a logical, rationale thing to happen, but the reality is that Pena is in the last year of his contract ( $10.125 million), and his agent is Scott Boras who is renowned to being hard pressed to seeing even a dollar squeeze past his clients. That at some point from today on we might have to consider that Pena might not start, or even finish the 2010 season wearing a Rays jersey.
It is an unfortunate fact of baseball life that players leave or get traded at points in their careers. But you got the feeling here that maybe Pena might have finally found a comfortable spot to place his glove and bat every day, and maybe selfishly I wanted him to retire a Ray. But the stark reality is that Pena has a few years left in his tank, and maybe he will not be within the Rays budget restrictions in 2011. Just like Crawford, it might be an instant reality check that the team will have to find options and create fluid change if Pena were to leave the squad.
But is this the right time to be considering such a drastic change like this? I mean the guy is about to finally get that cast and those pins pulled from his hand and begin some initial hitting drills. Can he have any real high-side trade value before he reports to Spring Training? And even if a team did consider him before the 2010 season, isn't his $ 10 million contract a monetary distraction to most teams?
But considering the offensive awards and the defensive accolades Pena has received the last few seasons, his contract might be considerably an extreme value right now in comparison with his colleagues around the Major Leagues. I would think Boras for one thinks Pena's current worth is "out of whack" when considering his talent level and potential.
Pena rebuilt his baseball career when he signed with the Rays in 2007. He came to us as a player who was released by the Yankees and Boston farm systems as a secondary player, and maybe both of those franchises at the time felt Pena might not reach his potential again. But the stark reality is the correlation of Pena and the Rays up-surge happened at the same time. Both the player and the team began to excel and blast past expectations. Ahh, what a difference a year can make in a players career.
I do not want to consider a 2010 season without Pena's solid defense at first base. No disrespect to Rays players Willy Aybar or Ben Zobrist, but it is hard to replace a diamond with cubic zurconia and feel the same sparkle off the ring. Zorilla could be a solution, and could grow into the position in 2010, but why test fate now? Why would you consider trading the top offensive weapon on your team the last few years when the corner has finally been taken by the Rays.
And hasn't Pena been a great piece of the puzzle to put in the lineup behind Evan Longoria and make teams pitch to the young star. If Pena was not in the Rays lineup, would Longoria get the same pitches if Zobrist or even Burrell followed him in the lineup? I would think Pena was the perfect piece to put in that spot because of his potential to turn on any pitch and send it deep.
I really hope that at some point in the 2010 season I do not have to write a blog telling people why I am going to miss Pena. But we all know with the realities of this baseball business, anyone can be replaced in a moments notice. 2010 is not even here yet and I can feel the winds of change in the air. This coming season is an important one in the Rays development. Changes is in the air, but hopefully it will be later and not earlier in the season.
But in this ever changing business of baseball these days, you never know what will happen. And with the completion of the fast and furious trade of Rays veteran starting pitcher Scott Kazmir right before the end of August 2009, we know that no one is safe, not even an offensive/defensive weapon like Pena. But hopefully we will be able to say goodbye this time. Hopefully if something was to happen and Pena was to leave the Rays before the end of 2010, we will get to see that smile and maybe even see Pena do that dance one more time.

I guess I am not the CZ fan. It got to bling with intensity for me.
I hope Pena stays. He has some roots here now, but we all know that a player only has so many years to make his money, and he turned 30 this season.
You would hope he would give a local discount, but like we have seen with Jason Bay, it is not a gimmee, and might just be words sometimes.
But I guess I will just have to cherish his play every day and hope it is not the last one…..sigh!

Do you mean to say cubic zurconias aren't nice fixture pieces? Excuse me… gotta run to the jeweler and see if I can get my money back… *AHEM*… I hope Pena is able to stick around for ya. He's a solid guy to have at first. I didn't like his moonlighting on the MLB Network as an expert analyst during the playoffs though… doesn't seem like something an active player should be doing (he went on and on about how scary the Yankees pitching is…ugh, gag me, please). Dude belongs in Tampa.
Isn't Pena the captain?
I thought he was, but maybe I read wrong. In any case, he's one of the best players out there but is skimmed over by many because he plays for a small-market team. It's unfortunate, really…
Unlike the Boston team that put a "C" usually reserved for hocey captains on their star catcher, we really do not have a "captain" per se.
But it is definitely Pena that steer the teams emotions and confidence.
The small market saga is true, but he was drafted by Texas, then traded to Detroit, then spent time in both the minor league systems of Boston and New York before he was released and signed with the Rays.
I still remember the day he was signed.
A guy in the Rays front office, Brian Killingsworth played with Pena in the Cape Cod League and called me so excited about the news………Best phone call I ever got about a Rays player…………EVER!

NEW YORK — Tiffany is taking another shot at reviving its lustre, naming a long-time Bulgari executive and Diesel CEO as its top executive.
The company had also hired Frederic Cumenal to revitalize the brand, but ran out of patience in February after only two years.
Alessandro Bogliolo, 52, spent 16 years at the luxury jewelry and watch company Bulgari and had most recently been CEO of Italian clothing company Diesel.
Bogliolo is expected to take over the CEO post at Tiffany by Oct. 2. He will also become a board member.
Tiffany & Co., based in New York, has wrestled with weak sales as millennials spend money elsewhere and competition intensifies from online players like Amazon and Blue Nile. The luxury jeweler reported lower-than-expected sales during the most recent holiday season, a critical period for retailers.
Shares of Tiffany added $1.51, or 1.6 per cent, to $93.97 in late afternoon trading.

Some of these include:
Development of microelectronics and robotics to create artificial limbs.
Creation of the nicotine patch to help people stop smoking.
Invention of the cardiac pacemaker.
First successful liver transplant.
Contributing to the development of the CAT (or CT) scan.
Developing the practice of an aspirin a day to prevent heart attacks.
Established in 1989, the Institute for Medical Research conducts and supports research and educational activities in collaboration with the Durham VA Medical Center with funds from private companies, governmental agencies, foundations and academic institutions.
With a varied research program from cancer to PTSD to research in space the Institute for Medical Research plays a vital role in the support of research and education at the Durham VA Medical Center.
Dr. Miriam Morey, Founder and Director of the Durham VA Medical Center's Gerofit program discusses the program and its benefits to our Veterans.
