NEW YEAR’S NOTIONS & NUMBERS

NEW YEAR’S NOTIONS & NUMBERS: "By NORMAN M. COVERT

http://blog.thecovertletter.com/2012/01/new-years-notions-numbers/

Looking back on events of 2011 is a notion that Leroy (Satchell) Paige said we should avoid. Chances are, he said, “the Devil may be gaining on you!” The late, great professional baseball pitcher knew from which he spoke. I, therefore, am forging into 2012 with optimism.

A retrospective does give pause that something good can happen with me and mine – and you and yours – these next 12 months. " Read more: http://blog.thecovertletter.com/2012/01/new-years-notions-numbers/

Top stories of 2011: Readers weigh in - The Frederick News-Post Online:

"The Middletown Knights’ state football championship win was readers’ pick for The Frederick News-Post’s top story of 2011 in Frederick County. The initial list was compiled by the newspaper’s editors. During the final week of December, readers were asked to rank the stories.

A couple of tie votes resulted. Three tied for sixth place and two for 10th.

Here are Frederick County's top 10 stories of 2011:"

Ranking the year's news: You choose the Top 10 - The Frederick News-Post Online

Ranking the year's news: You choose the Top 10 - The Frederick News-Post Online:

"We published thousands of stories this year, and we want to know which one you think is the Top Story of 2011.

We had an earthquake, floods and an October snowstorm. We saw political battles over police contracts, the Frederick Keys and whether or not to privatize county services. Middletown won its first state football title, Frederick County Public Schools found a new superintendent and the national teacher of the year is from Urbana. And, yes, Bryan Voltaggio -- the Volt chef who placed second on Season 6 of Bravo's "Top Chef: Las Vegas" -- has made a front page or two, as well.

The question we have is which story made the biggest impact, stood out the most or simply managed to keep the community talking.

The News-Post’s newsroom narrowed the year’s top stories to 20, and we want to know which one topped your list this year.

Voting is under way at fredericknewspost.com and will continue through Wednesday. On Jan. 1, we’ll list the Top 10 stories of 2011 as chosen by you." http://www.fredericknewspost.com/sections/news/display.htm?StoryID=129851

Dave Barry’s Year in Review: The 2011 Festival of Sleaze - The Washington Post

Dave Barry’s Year in Review: The 2011 Festival of Sleaze - The Washington Post:

http://www.washingtonpost.com/lifestyle/magazine/dave-barrys-year-in-review-the-2011-festival-of-sleaze/2011/12/08/gIQAyK5QTP_story.html?tid=ts_carousel

By Dave Barry, Published: January 1

It was the kind of year that made a person look back fondly on the gulf oil spill.
"Granted, the oil spill was bad. But it did not result in a high-decibel, weeks-long national conversation about a bulge in a congressman’s underpants. Which is exactly what we had in the Festival of Sleaze that was 2011. Remember? There were days when you could not escape The Bulge. At dinnertime, parents of young children had to be constantly ready to hurl themselves in front of their TV screens, for fear that it would suddenly appear on the news in high definition. For a brief (Har!) period, The Bulge was more famous than Justin Bieber."
