Once there was a boy who loved to dance. Even in kindergarten, Nick Sipes liked nothing better than watching ballet on public television. Sometimes he and his older brother would make up dances, turning and leaping together through their home in Parkville. But while Justin eventually stopped dancing, Nick continued. By the age of 12, he was serious enough to quit soccer because it was cutting into his rehearsals of jazz and lyrical dance. Classical ballet would prove even more demanding.

With all my work to provide a different and smarter take on crime, readers want only one thing: "They just want to know how many break-ins are on my block." That insightful analysis comes from Robert E. Pierre, a crime reporter for The Washington Post. We appeared together this week on a radio show put together by the federal government's Court Services and Offender Supervision Agency. In English, that's parole and probation for D.C. criminals. Its spokesman, Leonard A. Sipes Jr., who used to speak for the Maryland Department of Public Safety and Correctional Services, runs an impressive media operation that consists of TV, radio and blogs - designed to promote the agency but also to discuss criminal justice issues.

What does it mean to be patriotic? Try finding words to answer that question. Try finding photographs. Last March, more than 30 Marylanders answered New York photographer Bill Hayward's casting call for "Patriot Acts," a collaborative self-portraiture project. Among the 30 historic sites Hayward visited across the country was Fort McHenry, where he interviewed and photographed people and asked them to create their own backdrops using paper, scissors and paint. "The project allows people to take a moment to step back and ask themselves, `What do I really feel about patriotism?
