I am still amazed at what an eventful year 2011 was. So much happened that really changed the world, for better or worse.
Boston.com’s Big Picture series shows a lot of the historic (and not so historic) events.
They don’t have any photos of the local historic event, the Queensland floods. In any other year, the significance of Queensland’s disaster would not have been over-shadowed by the far more catastrophic natural disasters internationally.
A well written piece on the lives of little-known people in historic photos. They’re all compelling stories, but Lt. Colonel Robert L. Stirm’s story is almost too bleak to bear.

The photos from American astronaut Douglas H. Wheelock’s Twitter feed are breathtaking. Check them out if you haven’t already seen them in a chain email.
