They got us, so now we have to clean up -- yes the the link spammers have invaded our site. We are running scripts to make sure that we block and delete the spam content.

We have also temporarily changed the sign-up process from being automatic to where the NOL staff needs to review each submission. Sorry for the delays in getting to our content, but please realize that we will be back.

Thank you, Tim

It looks like this weekend is going to be similar to last weekend with another uninvited guest, Hurricane (or Tropical Storm) Danny Boy, swinging through the area. Let's hope that this does not take away from the Newport Arts Festival at the Newport Yachting Center (map).

For the many summer rentals, this is the last weekend of summer so it that weekend where you have to wrap up all doing all those things that you had wanted to do, but you kept saying that you would get to it next week. Here are 3 classic Newport summer things to do that you have to get done:

• Newport International Polo Series at Glen Farm
• Murder Mystery Matinee at Astor's Beechwood Mansion
  

Holy hot and sticky. After a summer that never seemed to get here, the heat and humidity have come come to town this weekend. We should also expect a few thunderstorms, so stay in the vicinity of your favorite sea side bar stool.
