[Mesorah] New Shtick

[Jeremy Rosenbaum Simon]

I don't know whether this is entirely on point, but when someone (R.
Mandel?) mentioned that he thought the announcement about Zachor was new
shtick, it reminded me of something else I think is new shtick. Has anyone
noticed that recently some shuls have had the haftarah read from teh side
of the bimah? Is there any source for this? Did any see this before 10
years ago? When I raised this on the Google leining list, no one seemed to
know what I was talking about, but I have seen it all over the NY area in
the past several years. Drives me crazy, esp. when I am asked to do it.
