2/17/09 Here Is How The Courant Reports On It's Building School Committee.The Difference Is The Harford Paper Has Blogs And Hearst Newspapers Don't

Helen Ubinas At The Harford Courant


Notes from HeL


Hmmm...Is El Jefe on his way out?: Helen Ubinas


By Helen Ubinas


2:11 pm UPDATE: Why whispers should never be ignored.


1:05 pm UPDATE: City hall whispers are now adding that the big guy might be doing the same with the School Building Committee. But those are just rumors right now. An email seeking comment to Spokesperson Sarah Barr was met with an automated response:


"City Hall is closed Monday, February 16th in honor of President's Day."


XXXXX


There's an interesting item on the agenda for Tuesday's Hartford Board of Education meeting: Election of new officers.Hmmm...Wonder if that means Mayor Eddie Perez, reigning King of the Board, will step aside?


It certainly wouldn't be in the mayor's NEVER BACK DOWN nature, but hey, you never know.

Now That's Newspaper Blogging With An Attitude


MORE NOTES FROM HEL:

WHY ISN'T GREENWICH TIME MANAGING EDITOR BRUCE HUNTER SMART ENOUGH TO PUT LOCAL BLOGGER'S ON THE GREENWICH TIME WEBSITE:
If Hunter Put Claudette Rothman (Greenwich Diva) , Bill Clarke (Greenwich Gossip) Or My Favorite Mad Blogger And Town Gadfly Chris Fountain (For What It's Worth) On The Greenwich Time Website He Would Increase The Paper's Web Traffic Dramatically.

12/04/08 Could Danbury Be Safer Than Greenwich ??? = Danbury Is Much Safer Than Gov Wanna Be Dan Malloy's Stamford !!!


Crime Does Not Pay In Danbury

Danbury takes crown as state’s safest city
Nick

Good news for Danburians - you live in Connecticut’s safest city:

Danbury tops the list of the safest cities in the state, according to a ranking of the safest — and most dangerous — cities in the nation.

The rankings of cities with populations greater than 75,000 were recently released as part of the “City Crime Ratings” book published annually by CQ Press. Danbury came in at No. 55 of all cities in the nation and first in Connecticut.

“Danbury is fortunate to employ some of the best police officers in our area, who show a deep commitment to the safety of our city’s citizens and visitors,” Mayor Mark Boughton said.
“Our city is proud of this ranking, and we will continue focusing our efforts and commitment to our officers and their needs.”

Stamford came in second of Connecticut cities and No. 71 in the nation. Hartford brought up the rear as the most dangerous city in the state; its national rank is 359 of 385.

Police Chief Al Baker said Danbury has consistently done well on the rankings over the years and often fell in one of the top two spots for the state. Stamford, however, has come out ahead of Danbury in past years.

Read more here. Continue to pray for Hartford and New Haven, which reportedly was not ranked because it does not report certain categories of crime to the FBI.
