New Year

It’s safe to say we’re all entering 2021 with high hopes and what better way to harness what you want than with a calendar or planner that really speaks to you.

Celebrate and welcome in the New Year with the '2017 Black Tie & Tails Gala' at the Governor Hill Mansion in Augusta.

MaineGeneral has announced on their facebook page the arrival of Wil, the son of Amanda and Chad, who is the first Maine baby born in 2015!

As of today, Jan 1., 2015, some new laws have gone into effect in Maine.

Hey there, buddy. How's that diet going? And the new running program? And the not drinking? If you're like us, New Year's resolutions are a lot easier to make than to keep. If you're already beating yourself up, you may as well stop ... and enjoy these memes. We hope they will either motivate, entertain, or console you, depending on their nature.

Welcome to the new year, y'all! We survived the Mayan Apocalypse, went to our office holiday parties without going totally nuts and witnessed Kathy Griffin trying to get in Anderson Cooper's pants. We're still trying to get that image out of our brains. Regardless, we made it to January, and that's pretty impressive.

If on day two of 2013 it's already beginning to feel like it's been an eternity since you've had a drink or a cheeseburger, watch this video. It's cats illustrating the ten most common New Year's Resolutions.

While most of us rang in the new year with a noisemaker and a drink or two, 29-year-old Coco Bennett celebrated by brandishing a samurai sword in front of police. Oh, and he was stark naked too, of course.

Time Square and the ball drop have nothin’ on Eastport’s The Great Sardine & Maple Leaf Drop. Yes, it sound like just what it is, they drop a sardine and a maple leaf.  Since Easport is on line between Maine and Canada they celebrate twice.  At 11pm eastern (midnight Atlantic time) they drop a 4-foot red plywood maple leaf,  then at midnight they drop the sardine.

Gov. LePage is urging motorists in Maine to drive safely to keep roads safe as New Year's Eve is upon us. Gov. LePage said 163 people have died on Maine roads this year, and that too many of those deaths were caused by distracted or drunken drivers.

We're going to make a pretty huge statement right now ladies and gents, so brace yourselves: photobombing is hands down the best way to capture any sort of moment. Ruining a picture with that unexpectedly hilarious face or the addition of a random stranger in a photo simply adds that extra oomph needed to bring a picture to the next level. Plus, it's just funny stuff.
