| Around 7:15 I felt the house shake and thought it was a gust of wind. My mother-in-law called and she was watching CH 5 Boston and they said that there was a 4.6 earthquake in Maine so I guess that is what we felt. |

| I definitely felt it for at least 5-10 seconds in Newburyport. House shook big time. Does not happen often here in New England. |

It happened just as my wife was due home. I thought she ran the car through the back of the garage.  _________________ "Jack didn’t have any envy in him," Calipari said. "He was the greatest coach to ever coach here." |
