Rep. Patrick Kennedy (D-R.I.) on Wednesday said the historic, six-acre Kennedy family compound in Hyannis, Mass., won't be converted into a museum or leaving the family's hands anytime soon.
"Someday it might be part of the institute in Boston — the presidential library," Kennedy said. "But for now, no."
The waterfront property along Nantucket Sound was the home of Ambassador Joseph P. Kennedy and his family, including President John F. Kennedy and Sens. Edward and Robert Kennedy (D-N.Y.). It was the headquarters for JFK's 1960 presidential campaign. It is listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places and is a local Hyannis historic district.

Self-reliance and sustainability in the 21st century.
By Sherry Leverich Tucker
tomato hornworm, tomato, bugs, caterpillars, Sherry Leverich Tucker
The Tomato Hornworm can be as elusive as it is destructive. Here are a few pictures I took straight from our garden this evening. See if you can spot them all. One of the pictures includes three caterpillars. Notice the photo of the caterpillar eating on lambs-quarter instead of tomato. He seemed a little sickly.
It can be kinda fun hunting and finding them, though I doubt the fun is worth the price you pay for their destruction. Frustration is escalated when too much time is wasted at this game as well. Fortunately these were eating on some early summer determinate tomato plants that are past their prime. Good luck in your own look and find adventures in your garden!

Tell us the Good Stuff!
Replica White House, sculpted on the Caribbean island of Trinidad.
I'm an artist all the way from Trinidad and Tobago and I've recently constructed a replica miniature White House model, using concrete. For five weeks, I incessantly mixed, and sculpted my way to completing this daunting, but fun task. But before I could have commenced the construction of the house, I did thorough research on the building itself.
I found out about the deep history of the White House, and learnt about what the black slaves had to go through for it to be completed. In addition, I viewed the blueprints of the building online, and I memorized the blueprints. I was then able to build the entire White House complex, based on my memory of what I saw about it online. All the while I was building it, I felt a great sense of empathy for the slaves who built the real White House, and felt even prouder of the fact that a black person now runs the free-world, from there today.
That's the main reason why I built it, because I was so inspired by Barack Obama being re-elected as president of the United States! I look up to him, he's a great role-model for young folks like myself out here in this world. It would be a dream-come-true, if you feature my story on your show, for not only the world to see, but also for the president to see as well, now that would be awesome!
It has been my pleasure sharing my story with you guys. sincerely, an inspired young man. :)

The Magpies' second-round FA Cup exit at the hands of Rotherham and last weekend's postponement at Portsmouth have left Keith Curle's squad kicking their heels in recent weeks.
Despite snow and ice in the Nottingham area, the Meadow Lane pitch passed a Friday inspection, but will be assessed once more on Saturday morning.
Andre Boucaud is available having returned to the club on a permanent basis following the midfielder's successful loan spell from Luton.
The extended break leaves Curle with no further major injury worries among a squad that is much lighter than last time they were in competitive action.
Since the 2-1 home defeat to MK Dons, Chris Iwelumo, Carl Regan, Tom Williams, Lee Hughes, Jordan Stewart and Damion Stewart have all left the club.

The Hawaii Rainbow Warriors and the Rice Owls have scheduled a home-and-home football series for 2014 and 2018, both schools announced today.
Hawaii will travel to face Rice at Rice Stadium in Houston on Oct. 4, 2014. The Owls will return the trip to Aloha Stadium in Honolulu on a date to be determined in 2018.
Rice previously had four non-conference games scheduled for the 2014 season, but New Mexico State had to drop their game scheduled for Sept. 6 due to their transition into the Sun Belt Conference.
"When we were faced with the challenge of replacing New Mexico State at such a late date, we knew we faced an uphill battle in securing an FBS opponent, but that was always our first priority," Rice Director of Athletics Joe Karlgaard said in a statement. "Rick Mello (Rice Senior Executive Athletic Director) was very diligent in his search and we are excited to welcome Hawai'i back to Rice Stadium."
The game with Hawaii completes Rice's schedule for the 2014 season. The Owls open the season at Notre Dame and then, after an off week, travel to Texas A&M. Rice's fourth and final non-conference game is at Army on Oct. 11.
In Conference USA play, Rice hosts Old Dominion, North Texas, UTSA, and UTEP and travels to Southern Miss, FIU, Marshall, and Louisiana Tech.
With the addition of Rice, Hawaii will take advantage of the Hawaii Exemption and will play a 13-game schedule in 2014. The Rainbow Warriors also host Washington, Oregon State, and Northern Iowa and travel to Colorado.
The 2014 MWC schedule, which dates have not been released for yet, has Hawaii hosting Nevada, UNLV, Utah State, and Wyoming and visiting Colorado State, Fresno State, San Diego State, San Jose State.
Football Schedules
This news blows for UH. Sounds like we're stuck having to add a 2nd FCS team to complete our schedule. What a way to open a new stadium.
Rice needed a home game. The Hawaii game gives Rice 5 home games in 2014. If Houston refused to play at Rice, it makes sense that Rice scheduled Hawaii instead.
Houston AD Mack Rhoades said that Houston was willing to play an away game rather than schedule a second FCS team.
Houston needs a home game. Each of the following have a Hawaii Exemption and can elect to play a 13th game (with open dates) – UNLV 9/6; Wyoming 9/6; Oregon State 9/13; Nevada 9/20.
But I doubt OS wants an away game the week after traveling to Hawaii. Depends on $$$.
Prairie View A&M could use an FBS opponent. How about it Cougs?
Houston currently has 6 home games and 5 away games scheduled. Although a seventh home game would be nice, it isn't necessary. I'd like to see a home and home scheduled with Oregon State. The 2014 game could be played on 9/13 at Corvallis with a game in Houston to be played later.

In 1993, Stanley Williams survived a close-encounter with a volcano. A volcanologist, he was standing on the rim of Colombia's Galeras volcano when it erupted with little warning. Six of his scientific colleagues and three tourists were killed. Williams fled down the mountain's slope — until flying rocks and boulders broke both his legs. With a fractured skull, he managed to stay conscious enough to huddle behind some other large boulders and dodge flying debris until the eruption ended and his grad students rescued him.
Williams and the other scientists were there to study Galeras, and hopefully get a better idea of what signals predicted the onset of eruptions.
This is something we still don't understand well.
While volcanologists have identified some signals — like distinctive patterns of small earthquakes — that increase the likelihood of an oncoming eruption, those signals aren't foolproof predictions. There are still volcanoes like Galeras that give no warning. And volcanoes like Mt. St. Helens. In 2004, that volcano gave signals that it would erupt. And it did. Sort of. The Seattle Times described it as "two small burps and a lava flow". Basically, the signals don't always precede an eruption, and even when they do happen it doesn't tell you much about how big any ensuing eruption will be.
And that presents an interesting question, writes Erik Klemetti at Wired's Eruptions blog. How close to volcanoes should tourists really be? That's a question with real-world applications. This year, New Zealand's White Island volcano has been ... Read the rest

My eight year old son has always been rather messy when peeing, it frequently seems to end up on the rim or on the floor, which I am getting very tired of! I have spoken with him about it often and he's promised to be careful, but he says sometimes it's hard to control the direction.
I'm a single mom, but I spoke to my sister about it and she said her two boys and husband occasionally have poor 'aim', but she said it's infrequent, and just something that happens with males.
I have been wondering whether my son's problem has something to do with him being uncircumcised. I know my nephews are both circumcised, and they don't seem to have any problem.
Should I have taught my son to pull back his foreskin to pee? I don't recall reading or being told anything about this. His foreskin started to retract when he was about 4 I think, but I only ever taught him to do it in the shower.
Any help would be appreciated!
My son's urologist (he had an undescended testicle at birth) and his ped told me and ds that as soon as his foreskin retracts (which is did around 4-ish) that he should retract when peeing. I don't think he actually does (he's 5.5) but aim only seems to be an issue when he's not paying attention so I didn't think of that as the reasoning.
Some other ideas: asking him to sit when he pees and point his penis downward (sitting to pee is common in many places around the world).
Putting Cherrios in the toilet for him to practice aiming at.
Making him clean the bathroom. (at 8 this is totally doable. I think I was cleaning the bathroom by 8. You can always do it together if that seems like a big leap for him. You do the shower/tub and floor, he does the sink and toilet).

Scott Harrison is Not Pondering a Derry Mathews Clash
By Phil D. Jay
No sooner had manager Alex Morrison talked of a possible shot at Derry Mathews' British lightweight belt, had Scott Harrison then dismissed a match-up with the European title challenger.
At a media day to re-open Morrison's Gym, Harrison spoke to waiting journalists, including Stephen Halliday of the Scotsman, to explain his future plans - which did not include a crack at the Lonsdale belt.
"To be honest, I don't even know who Derry Mathews is," said Harrison. "I didn't even know what he looked like. When they said his name today, I turned around and said 'Who's Derry Mathews?' You'd still need to point him out to me.
"They said he's graciously going to put his title on the line against me. That's good, isn't it? I've always looked at who is the world champion, not British champion. The British title isn't really attractive to me. I want to fight for the world title."
Mathews, 28, was also present at the media day and has since denied even offering Harrison a shot at his title as he prepares for his rematch with EBU champion Gavin Rees on July 7th in Sheffield.

Welcome To Screamscape!
If you're a theme park lover or enjoy the best thrill rides the world has to offer, you've found the right place.
From new ride announcements, construction reports and the latest rumors: Screamscape always has something new to report.
News & Rumors
Kings DominionDoswell, VACedar Fair Entertainment
Park News - (8/17/16) Kings Dominion has released the details about this year's Halloween Haunt at last, confirming two new haunts coming to the park this year: Blackout and Trick-or-Treat. To make way the event has retired two haunts: Slaughterhouse and Club Blood. Blackout is behind Juke Box Diner and as the name implies, it will be a very dark house, taking you back to the days when you worried about what lurked in the dark in your house, under your bed, or just around the corner. Trick-or-Treat will go near the Drop Tower and Arcade, and takes you into the world of fairy tales, where the displaced wicked witches have been planning a return to power. (7/7/16) If you've never been to Kings Dominion, you might enjoy the latest video from In The Loop showing off all the park's current coasters. Follow the link and check it out. (6/8/16) (Updated) Kings Dominion and Carowinds are swapping some management positions this month. Carowinds VP & GM, Brad Marcy, has moved out of Carowinds already (after just joining in 2015) to take on a new position at the Cedar Fair corporate office. Pat Jones, VP and GM of Kings Dominion will be relocating to the Charlotte area to take over as the new VP and GM of Carowinds. Meanwhile, Carowind's Gary Chadwick (VP of Food & Retail Ops) will be heading to Kings Dominion to serve as that park's new VP and GM, which is actually a homecoming of sorts for him as he started his theme park career at Kings Dominion back in 1999, traveling from England to take part in the park's first season of hosting international students to work at the park. (3/23/16) So why is Hurler closed? According to several sources, including a post at KDFans, the park's PR & Communications Manager, Katelyn Sherwood, confirmed that Hurler would reopen in 2017 after an extensive renovation. No more details have been mentioned, and while there are those already shouting for RMC to come in and take a crack at it, I have a feeling that GCI will be coming in over the summer to work on it once their crew is finished with GhostRider in California. Why do I say this? In addition to the fact that Cedar Fair has yet to tap RMC for anything yet, GCI already has some extensive history with Hurler... kinda. You see, for the past couple of years GCI has had crews reworking Hurler's clone at Carowinds with much success. It may simply be time to take what they've learned in the Carolinas and apply it to the KD sibling. (3/21/16) The new park map for Kings Dominion shows something unexpected this season... that their wooden coaster, Hurler, will be closed for the entire 2016 season. Quite strange and unexpected... anyone know more about what is going on to cause this?
2016 - Delirium - (3/21/16) Kings Dominion held a media day for the new Delirium attraction and KDFans has posted their report on the park's newest attraction. (2/24/16) Kings Dominion has posted a construction update for their new Delirium ride this week, showing how the 100,000 pound motor was lifted into place. (2/5/16) The parts and pieces for Delirium are on site at Kings Dominion, just waiting to be set up. The park posted some pictures of them on their official Blog. (8/25/15) I'm told that instead of being a Huss Super Frisbee, the new Delirium ride going into Kings Dominion is expected to be the similar Mondial Revolution ride. (8/21/15) Kings Dominion confirmed plans to add Delirium to Candy Apple Grove in 2016. Delirium will be a 40-passenger swinging pendulum style ride that will rock guests 115 feet into the air at an arc angle of 120º

the order was never confirmed in email as promised and i WAS charged but the order was NEVER processed. i called on the 13th before 12 pm and asked what the deal was and the lady on the phone politely helped me canceled the order and redid the order as it was originally and charged nothing for shipping and had it go as next day air cause i needed this to go for the week but I WAS charged again for the order. she said because it has been processed that day before 12 that it will be shipped the next day with ups as next day air works. i work in an online retail business with similar online shopping cvs has with customers so i know what she said made sense and the mistake could have happened the week before. So i get a confirmation email of the order.
the next day i still have not received tracking information
no email that the order is out of process it still says in process. so i call them up and get a different person this time she said that there is no way the order can be processed if i ordered it the day before. that didnt make sense and i know for sure its totally bull. but she assured that it will be processed the next day and i will receive wednesday or thursday.
i checked email today and still no confirmation on tracking it says its still in process. i really dont get how next day air takes a week to just process after being charged at two different times. i call again get put on hold for almost 30 minutes plus and get told that because i placed the order on monday that it shouldnt be processed for like a week and then that one item is hazmat on the order. I was not told what item is was. i dont know why that information of what i had ordered to be hazmat is withheld when its my order. so they said they cant deliver it air.
I KNOW THIS i work with hazmat all the time it never said that soap was a hazmat and in fact i know its not only thing could possibly the hair frizz as it has a sprayer but nothing in the order is concentrated or compacted or condensed. but assuming that is the item why didnt you tell me what it was the third time i called which was today on wednesday the 15th. so apparently it wont be processed for a week and even then it wont be shipped out until 3 to 5 business days after because of ups. the whole order is being ground shipped when i was given the option of next day air i needed this before monday 13th and just now was told i wont get this for about a week or so and i need to just accept that.
3 different stories and the 2nd two were absolute bull. then i was told i have to wait for how fast ups will work to update the tracking and they said it takes 24 hours later after it is sent from you guys thats not true either it takes less than a second to get a tracking number that is how ups is able to get it from you is from that tracking number so why am i being badly lied to okay 3 different stories charged twice just wanted some home products for a friend last week and now im getting lied to and charged for items that may or may not come in a week or two
and i have never gotten a call or email regarding ANYTHING about the delay or problems each time it was an off the wall reason why it wont be processed
its just soaps and hair stuff its not a freaking car from oversees or a computer from Dell why must buying soap online be a scam
im giving it one more day and i will call tomorrow will i hear another lie with a completely different story? and it still be "in process" with no email telling me what happened? ups business pick ups end around 3 pm everywhere process is simply billing charging and pulling order and having it ready to be shipped
why is soap requested for next day air going to take almost two d**n weeks
i wouldnt be so pissed right now if you guys had at least made an effort to let me know it was a mistake or error and try to contact with phone number or email that both were provided
this is getting rediculous

Gary Norton wins the primary
Posted October 1st, 2013 @ 10:41pm
(East Cleveland) Mayor Gary Norton will slide into the November General election unopposed now that he won Tuesday night's primary, beating both Democratic challengers.
Norton had 1385 votes, more than double the votes cast for council president Jay Jordon who received only 563 votes. Vernon Robinson was third with only 151 votes.
Norton has been mayor of East Cleveland since 2009 when he beat Eric Brewer.

Volume 8, Issue 11, 01 November 1940
Photosensitization and Fluorescence by Aromatic Hydrocarbons8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750594View Description Hide Description
Benzene, naphthalene, related hydrocarbons and some of their derivatives act as optical sensitizers towards the decomposition of alkyl iodides in hexane solution. Within this group, the sensitizing power of a substance towards an acceptor runs parallel with the ability of the acceptor to quench the fluorescence of the sensitizer; this is demonstrated quantitatively and in detail. The quantum yield of the naphthalene‐sensitized decomposition of ethyl iodide follows an equation of the form 1/φ=a+b(1/[EtI]), and detailed analysis of the quenching and sensitization shows that while sensitization and fluorescence are alternative processes, they are not completely reciprocal, in that more molecules may sensitize than may potentially fluoresce. All of the observed features of the sensitization are consistent with its being the result of a resonative transfer of energy at collision from the excited sensitizer to the acceptor.
On the Kinetics of the Order‐Disorder Transformation in Cu3Au8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750595View Description Hide Description
Using the elastic modulusS 11 as an indicator, the rate of the order‐disorder transformation of Cu3Au has been investigated in the region near the critical temperature. The variation of S 11 with time, at constant temperature, of a [100] single crystal of the alloy has been measured, and all the data for the transformation from disorder to order can be represented in one curve by plotting the fraction of untransformed material against the ``reduced'' time, t/τ. The relaxation time τ decreases rapidly with increasing amount of undercooling below the critical temperature, and combined with the data of Sykes and Evans on the resistivityvs. time curves, points to a minimum in τ about 20°C below the critical temperature. The critical temperature for the ordering process was found to be 386.8°C, for the disordering process 388.0°C. The observed data on the variation of τ with temperature are discussed in terms of a mechanism of nucleation and growth for the transformation.
Raman Spectrum of 1‐Bromo‐Dodecane8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750596View Description Hide Description
Raman displacements, estimated intensities and depolarization factors have been measured for 1‐bromo‐dodecane in the liquid state. The strong, polarized frequencies 563 and 647, characteristic of the —CH2Br group, have the same constant values as do other members of the series from n‐propyl to n‐heptyl bromide inclusive. The weak, depolarized frequency 3009 is also probably associated with this group. Five of the observed frequencies agree rather well with values of infra‐red active chain and end frequencies recently calculated by Whitcomb, Nielsen and Thomas for undecane, the mean deviation being 30 cm—1. The intense, highly polarized frequencies 2850 and 2930 and the less intense, depolarized frequency 2961 appear in the bromide spectrum as well as in the spectra of many other compounds containing alkyl radicals.
Efficiency of the Electrolytic Separation of Lithium Isotopes8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750597View Description Hide Description
The electrolytic separation coefficient, α, has been determined for the lithiumisotope separation in the electrolysis of lithium chloride solutions at a mercurycathode. Its value was found to be 1.055± about 0.005 and, within limits of error, was independent of temperature, of the fraction electrolyzed and of the amount of back reaction at the cathode. The factor was the same for LiCl dissolved in absolute ethyl alcohol as for aqueous LiCl. Isotopic analyses were made by a densimetric method of relative atomic weight determination. Crystalline materials with densities reproducible to the fifth decimal place were prepared. The observed separation is markedly larger than would be given by the exchange equilibrium. It is therefore certain that a kinetic mechanism is operative, although partial approach to equilibrium may enter as a secondary process. The data do not warrant a distinction between the various mechanisms which have been proposed as rate determining steps. They are consistent with Bell's quantum‐mechanical explanation (α=1.12) or with a ``diffusion layer'' mechanism (α=1.08) if partial approach to equilibrium is assumed as a secondary step.
The Local Field in Polarized Dielectrics8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750599View Description Hide Description
In Section I, a new deduction for the Lorentz force is given by considering at first such molecules as have their nearest neighbor at a given distance, summing over all dipoles in the field, and finally averaging. In Section II, the same procedure is applied to the case that correlations between each molecule and its immediate neighborhood are assumed to exist according to Onsager's theory. The method leads to an extension of Onsager's results to the case of media of variable density, including gases. In Section III, the distribution law of the local field is deduced for dipoles of constant moment μ0 with the aid of a probability theorem of Markoff‐Gans. Both under Lorentz's and under Onsager's assumptions, the local field becomes isotropic, to a first approximation, for weak external fields. Its average value is R̄=16πnμ0/(27)½, i.e., more than twice the maximum value of the Lorentz force obtainable with a given dipole density n. In the last section the calculated deviations from the Clausius‐Mosotti and Lorentz‐Lorenz expressions are compared with experimental evidence.
Dielectric Polarization in Solution II. The Polarization of Some Alcohols as a Function of Concentration and Temperature8(1940); http://dx.doi.org/10.1063/1.1750600View Description Hide Description
Curves showing the apparent molal polarization as calculated by the Debye‐Clausius‐Mosotti procedure are compared with the molal polarizability calculated as proposed in the introductory paper of this series. It is possible to give a satisfactory explanation of the latter curves in terms of association whereas the former curves show a behavior so complex that it is difficult to interpret. In the first paper of this series the authors showed that the behavior of the apparent molal polarization as calculated by the Debye‐Clausius‐Mosotti procedure was such as to lead to dubious conclusions even for the simplest type of polar substances. A procedure of applying the equation of Onsager was outlined which promises to make possible the interpretation of data on polarization in a realistic manner. The first paper was inspired by an attempt to apply the Debye‐Clausius‐Mosotti procedure to the alcohols in solution where it leads to results that are puzzling indeed. In this paper these data are published and discussed from the standpoint of the Onsager theory. When some additional data on alcohols in very dilute solution are obtained, it is hoped that an exact value can be obtained for the moments of the alcohols.

A couple weeks ago, I turned on a caching module to help reduce the number of times UHub went down. It's worked (yay!), but it also seems to have introduced a new problem, at least for people who aren't logged in: Read more.
Universal Hub
When you log in now, you'll be taken to the home page, rather than your user-profile page. If you still want to go to your profile page, click on "My Account" at the top of the page.
I'm very pleased to introduce Shelagh Dolan, who will be interning for UHub this summer. One of her main assignments will be covering the Olympics. She's fluent in Spanish, so we've already mapped out a couple of long-term assignments involving the city's Hispanic communities, but if you have any suggestions for stories touching those communities that are going uncovered, let us know!
As a grumpy old editor, naturally the very first thing I had her do was compose her own bio: Read more.
Given the sort of thing that's been happening even here in our quiet little cubbie of the universe, you might be interested in a Ford Hall Forum discussion next week on Vicious Anonymity.
I've reactivated the thumbs on comments, but have made voting stop four weeks after the post they're comments on has been published. Will be watching the server today to make sure they don't crash things again (if they do, will have to turn them off again).
I've turned off the voting on comments while I try to figure out why the site keeps slowing and crashing. There's a database table that's supposed to be used for triggering routine site maintenance, but it's been filling up with hundreds of thousands of items related to the voting system and I want to figure out why before turning it back on.
Well, if they're hosted on YouTube or Vimeo, that is. If you post something, look for the Video header at the top of the article-creation page. Click Select Media, then paste in the URL for the video you want to include and hit Submit. When your post goes live, the video will be at the top.
I got a request today from somebody to have links on Universal Hub open in a new tab or window rather than in the same tab as the UHub page. Less confusing, because it would keep UHub open, she said.
It'd be easy enough to do, but before I make a change like that, I'd want to see what other folks think. A poll should show up below in a second or two:
Unless you use IE, or are one of the other folks for whom the site had been looking odd in recent weeks. I've changed the template set used by UHub to fix display problems for such folks. Follks on phones may also see a bit of a different, hopefully better, display.
Everybody else, I hope, won't notice much of a difference, except maybe for the spacing between lines of text, which I've tightened up a bit. But please let me know about any oddities you see.
I'm seeing a growing number of comments along the lines of "you jerk, go die!" (actually, even worse, but you get the idea) If you're posting anonymously (i.e., you're not logged in, even if you do fill in the "name" field), sorry, I'm not going to mark that for public consumption. If you want to tear into somebody's position, by all means, go for it, but it's not closing time at a dive bar here and I'd like to try to keep things somewhat civil. As they say on MetaFilter:
Just installed a jaunty little thumb thing, which you'll now find at the end of every single comment.
The software has the ability to do both up and down votes. I decided not to enable down votes, at least not yet, because we're already a fairly cantankerous group as a whole, and I didn't feel like adding still more negativity to the site. I do need to see if I can move the thumb to the top right corner of a comment, if only because that's how the old system worked, and, you know, tradition.
Let me know what you think. And should I enable this on the posts themselves, in addition to the comments?
The token's time had come. Hopefully, the rest of the site won't feel too odd (but let me know if it does - especially the font for the article text).
The real reason for the change wasn't to mess with the graphics, though - it was more to upgrade to the latest version of the Drupal software that runs the site. I'm sure you'll find some broken stuff - please let me know!
One thing that's missing is the ability to upvote comments. I stupidly didn't think to look until it was too late whether the software I was using for that had been upgraded along with the rest of the software. It hadn't There are alternatives, one of which I'll install.
UPDATE: Site's been updated.
The current server's being switched over to a shinier and beefier machine.
Here's a new UHub rule: If you keep posting a link to the same conspiracy-nut article about the Marathon to Marathon-related posts here, even after you're asked not to, I will block your account.
I'm slowly wending my way through a major upgrade to the software that runs Universal Hub (for the CMS types: From Drupal 6 to 7).
You hopefully won't see much difference in the site - it'll still be your basic blog format - unless you connect with a mobile device. One of the things the new templates let me do fairly easily is have pages show up differently depending on what sort of device you're using to call up the site; I'm thinking it'd be nice to have smartphone users get readable type right away, rather than having to resize the page first. If you want to take a look, point your smartphone at
When you post a reply to a post or comment, you'll now have to type in letters you see in a "captcha" box, at the bottom of the posting form. This is actually something you used to be required to do up until a few months ago, when I upgraded the software and it managed to turn that off and I didn't realize it, despite the increase in spam that started showing up in the message approval queue. You should only have to fill out this mini-form once per session (i.e., if you post a reply, then click to another discussion and post, you shouldn't see it again). Registered users never have to fill out the box.
Which I am thrilled to death to announce because over the past couple of years running Universal Hub fulltime, I've learned that ad sales is an art - and I'm still at the paint-by-numbers stage.
With any luck, we should have honest-to-goodness UHub iPhone and BlackBerry apps up and running in about a month (I just spent a good part of a perfectly beautiful Saturday designing splash screens and icons).
The apps will have the UHub breaking-news goodness you'd expect, but also stuff like restaurant and store listings and reviews, all searchable and mappable. To get a rough idea of how that'll work, go to www.locallite.com/search.php and search for something (say, "pizza" in "Boston, MA").
Thanks to suggestions from Kalim Saliba and folks in this discussion, I've set up a UH group on Flickr. Anybody with a Flickr account can join in and post their best Boston-area photos to the group, discuss Boston photography, snort at my photo judgment, etc. As with the universalhub tag, I'll pick photos for highlighting here (if you don't have a Flickr account, but took a cool photo, e-mail me).
I've been thinking (yes, always a dangerous thing) about photos here on Universal Hub.
First, I'm grateful to folks who mark their Flickr photos as "universalhub" or who e-mail me photos. There are some very talented photographers out there, and I'm glad I can highlight your work here. But that gets me to the next point:

To do this for one day might be acceptable, but the mechanic kept putting off his deadlines for receiving the part, and for having the work done. I was very nice about this, and never offered a strong objection.
One Tuesday afternoon, I he told me that the part would be there at 3pm, and they would get the vehicle done first thing in the morning. I called at 9am on Wednesday, and he told me the part just arrived, and that he would probably get to it by the evening. I asked if there was any way we could bump it up, as I have small children I hadn't seen in almost two weeks, and I really needed to get home.
That's when things went down hill. He told me, "Here's what you can do. Get your Jeep and have it towed to somewhere else." I couldn't believe my ears. I just said, "OK", because I didn't know how to process what just happened. I called back ten minutes later, and said, "If you know you could get it done by this evening, I would like to have you do the work..." He cut me off, "I've already cancelled you out. Get your Jeep and get it out of here. You aggrivated me by asking me to rush. I don't get rushed".
So I am having my vehicle towed to another mechanic. If you need your vehicle repaired in the Knoxville or Sevierville area, don't be too anxious to get your car fixed. This mechanic might just kick you out to get spite you.

I have another sono scheduled for Oct 10, so we'll see for sure then,
A little part of me is hoping that my next sono shows a girl LOL i got the first one in 3d when i was told it was a boy, i know they are pretty accurate but theres still a part of me that wants a girl

I have two boys and I LOVE IT!!!!!! Hoping for a girl this time, will see. Just remember boys will be boys, get dirty wrestle, fart and blame you :) I let my boys wrestle as long as they are not hurting each other. The book Raising Up Boys is a great resource. Helps you understand them more. Ask other moms who have two boys questions. It helps in understanding them more. I am always happy to answer any questions about boys :)

Lecrae won the Grammy for "Best Gospel Album" by beating out Israel Houghton, James Fortune, Anita WIlson and the man who EVERYONE thought was a shoe in for the award - gospel legend Marvin Sapp. It was an upset according to many industry insiders such as Bebe WInans and more. For me, when they eliminated the "Rap/Rock Gospel album" category, I never thought a straight hip-hop act would EVER win a Grammy in that field.
