In the last decade rating-based models have become very popular in credit risk management. These systems use the rating of a company as the decisive variable to evaluate the default risk of a bond or loan. The popularity is due to the straightforwardness of the approach, and to the upcoming new capital accord (Basel II), which allows banks to base their capital requirements on internal as well as external rating systems. Because of this, sophisticated credit risk models are being developed or demanded by banks to assess the risk of their credit portfolio better by recognizing the...

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (BP) -- In the context of serious theological discussions, it may seem trivial to write about first impressions of guests when they visit your church. But if we could understand that a returning guest has more opportunities to hear the Gospel and experience Christian love and fellowship, we might take the issue a bit more seriously.
Prior to assuming the presidency of LifeWay Christian Resources, I led a church consulting company. One of our first steps in the consultation was to send one or more first-time guests to the church. Those individuals would then report back to us on their experiences. Many times those we enlisted were unchurched non-Christians.
As I write this, I am working at home because a handyman is working on several small items around my house. I love his approach. When he first enters our home, he asks for permission to take a quick tour. Within minutes, he commented on several items that might need his attention, items that weren't on the list I gave him. I appreciated his thoroughness, and it was good for his business as well.
The handyman did something very basic and very simple. He looked at my house through outside eyes. I am in my house every day, so I don't notice those things that may not be just right. The same is true for church members and church leaders. They see their church on an ongoing basis, so they don't have the benefit of outside eyes.
After two decades of church consultation, a clear pattern emerged. These were the areas that engendered more comments and concerns from first-time guests. These areas are listed in order of frequency of response, and they deal only with physical facilities.
-- The women's restrooms. Almost 100 percent of the female guests we retained addressed this issue. They noticed first and foremost the cleanliness of the restrooms. Then they noticed the convenience of getting to the restrooms. Finally, they noticed the capacity of the restrooms. Did they have to wait in line?
-- The preschool and nursery area. This area was a focus of near unanimity of young families. Is the area secure? Is it clean? How do I know someone else won't pick up my child? Do the workers appear concerned and qualified?
-- Parking. Guests often commented on the difficulty or ease of finding a parking spot. Was there a covered drop off if the weather was bad? Were there guest parking spots? Were there reserved places for young mothers and expectant mothers? Were there sufficient handicapped parking places?
-- Signage and information. Recently my wife and I were in a mall we had never visited. The first thing we did was go to a sign that had all the stores and their locations on it. Even small churches can be intimidating to first-time guests. Do you have adequate signage throughout the facilities? Is there an obvious information booth or table? Members know where to go; guests don't.
-- Worship seating. First-time guests desire to find a place to sit as quickly as possible. They feel awkward otherwise. Is your worship center more than 80 percent full? If so, the guests perceive it is completely full. Are your members trained to move to the middle of pews or seat rows so guests don't have to climb over them? Are their ushers or greeters available to lead guests to seats?
When a guest has a good experience, he or she is more likely to return. When they return they are more likely to hear about and experience the love of Christ.
When I was a pastor of a church with 70 in worship attendance, we decided to do something about our deplorable restrooms. We had a workday and almost half the church showed up. People donated materials, labor and even toilets. At the end of the day, we had some of the nicest and cleanest restrooms in town.
I don't know how closely it's related, but our attendance bumped up to 90 immediately and never went back in my tenure. Maybe it was the church working together. Maybe it was the community observing the unity of the church. Or maybe we just had clean restrooms.
It is that important.

Two weeks ago, a growth was found on the chest of Sara Polcari's 6-year-old dog, Charlie.
Given Charlie's history with cancer -- he had one of his hind legs amputated in March to get rid of a tumor -- the veterinarian recommended immediate surgery.
The timing couldn't have been worse. Polcari had just been laid off from her job, and now she and her husband were looking at an $850 bill. She was also six months pregnant.
"It's like, 'What are we going to do? Now? Really? Of all times?' " Polcari said. "It's really tough to meet our bills and to have this large amount of cost for Charlie coming up, it was just really unexpected."
The Polcaris had been able to pay for Charlie's amputation by raising money through family and friends. But now, they didn't know what to do.
That's when the vet told them about Fairy DogParents, a nonprofit that helps dog owners pay for their pets' needs during times of economic hardship.
"We filled out the online application, and I got a phone call that night saying that they would love to help," Sara Polcari said.
Since it started in 2009, Fairy DogParents has provided aid for nearly 400 dogs in Massachusetts: $150,000 worth of dog food and medical care.
"It's to prevent dogs from being surrendered to shelters or euthanized when their owners cannot afford care," said Marlo Manning, who founded Fairy DogParents. "Financial hardship is a very common reason why people surrender their animals to a shelter. And once they do that, it's not a choice that you can undo."
Between 2 million and 2.5 million dogs enter U.S. shelters each year, and between 1 million and 2 million of those are euthanized, according to estimates from the American Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals. The ASPCA also says that as many as 1 million pets in America are at risk of becoming homeless because of the recent economic downturn.

Wonderful people, Amazing place!
Sailing on the high seas takes a dedicated and seasoned sailor. Thank you to the crew and her captain for bringing her to Charleston.
LOVED PURE Theatre's Waffle Haus Christmas! Run, don't walk, and see it before the play closes!
They transform the entire gallery every month for a new show that is full of exciting, contemporary art. The artists are inventive, contemporary artists ranging from traditionally trained artists to photographers to pop-artists. A great contemporary art gallery in Charleston!
Beautiful landscapes, if you are into landscapes I have run into a spectacular local artist, Kellie Jacobs at Hamlet Fine Art Gallery at 7 Broad Street Charleston. Check out her work for the most sublime pastels and gorgeous oils depicting lowcountry landscapes, marsh scenes and beach scenes. you have to see her work!
One of Charleston's best kept secrets!
This is a must, for women and men!
ms. buck is exceptional!
I saw the female cast perform the other night, and it was HILARIOUS! Who knew Flowertown could be so funny! I loved it. The woman who played the uptight, clean friend made me laugh harder than I've laughed in a long time. Taking my mom on Mother's Day so I can see it again!
Brilliant cast, funny performance.
An amazing show! Made me proud of Charleston.
An excellent and worth-while show to see.
No other facility in Charleston offers, under one roof, classes ( both in-house and outreach ), inexpensive studio space and great shows. That said, the physical facility should expand or move, to showcase better this wide range of much-needed program; all this, and non-profit too. Great job by its new staff!
This restaurant was by far the best restaurant I have been to in years. Our waitress was lovely and the atmosphere couldn't have been more perfect. My husband and I enjoyed a delicious dinner, while remaining intimate, yet somewhat casual. You can turn the surroundings into whatever you want them to be, casual and fun, or elegant and sophisticated. The food was incredible and the wine too! Plus, we didn't even have to wait long at all on a Friday evening. AND, the prices are great for what you get... I strongly recommend Med Bistro to anyone.

One thing has remained dependable throughout Lindsay Lohan's many, many brushes with the law: It's always someone else's fault.
Stolen necklace? It was a loaner! High-speed chase down the Pacific Coast Highway in a borrowed SUV? "The black kid" was driving. (Nope, Lindsay was.) That cocaine the cops found in her pants pocket? Those weren't her jeans. And the list goes on and on, right through to last Friday, when Lindsay's rented Porsche rammed into the back of a dump truck on the PCH.
Her camp floated several stories, including how the truck driver allegedly cut her off (he adamantly denies this and says he has witnesses to back it up), that he's lying and looking to make a quick buck (in that case, wouldn't he have taken the bribe he claims LiLo's people offered him at the scene?) and brake failure, an explanation that should be easy enough to check, if our addiction to TV procedurals has taught us anything.
Now, TMZ reports the starlet, 25, attempted to set a more elaborate scheme in motion moments after the crash. No, she didn't try to blame a one-armed man. It seems that when police interviewed her at the hospital, she purportedly told them her male assistant, Gavin, was driving.
Indeed, shortly after news of the collision surfaced, X17 says she sent out a text telling friends, "I was in a massive accident. I wasn't driving ... Gavin was."
The cops didn't buy it, however, and they seemingly cited her for having pants on fire after her lackey told officers that she was the one behind the wheel. Eyewitnesses say Lindsay and Gavin both climbed out of the passenger door.
According to TMZ, the police report will include Lohan's ostensible fib, which could end up being very bad news because a) it's a crime to give false information to the cops, and b) it could impact her probation. Either violation could land her back in the pokey.
In late March, Judge Stephanie Sautner terminated Lindsay's formal probation but extended her informal probation until May 2014.
"I'm not going to give you a lecture," the judge told Lohan. "Live your life in a more mature way, stop the nightclubbing and focus on your work, OK?"
But let's face it. Nothing will probably happen to Lindsay over her apparent lie-telling, because nothing ever does. She'll wiggle out of it, until she (heaven forbid) does something terrible enough that the legal system will have no choice but to punish her.
Still, fingers crossed that she avoids more trouble long enough to finish the currently filming small-screen Elizabeth Taylor biopic "Liz & Dick," because we can't wait to see if it joins "Mommie Dearest" as a camp classic. Plus, we really want to know what was in that mysterious pink bag.

New light rail service could reconnect Wycombe and Maidenhead
9:31am Monday 10th August 2009 in Bourne End & Wooburns Exclusive By James Nadal

A NEW rail service in the mould of the Docklands Light Railway in London could reconnect Maidenhead and High Wycombe nearly four decades after the line was closed.
The Royal Borough of Windsor and Maidenhead (RBWM) revealed to the Free Press it was looking at plans to restore the railway line between Bourne End and High Wycombe, which was shut in 1970.
It would re-establish the service from Maidenhead to High Wycombe which also ran through Cookham, Wooburn Green and Loudwater.
Improvements could be made to the existing Marlow line, allow passengers there to get directly to High Wycombe.
There could be a higher number of stop off points than the original service operating in similar fashion to a tram.
RBWM Councillor John Stretton, who represents the Cookham and Bisham ward, said: "This is very exciting and we are pushing as hard as we can to get it moved forward.
"It has so many advantages, if there was a dedicated service all the way to High Wycombe with a service every ten minutes or so the traffic would be taken off the road.
"You would have a high frequency which would service a lot of people. It would be very simple, easy and straight forward. It's not exorbitant in cost at all, considering all the benefits."
He added the original railway line was always busy with commuters.
Chris Donnelly, political assistant to RBWM leader cllr David Burbage, said the council were "interested" in the project and although it was "looking at various options", the ultra light rail option seemed the most attractive at this stage, following the success of the DLR in East London.
He said: "We recognise there's an issue with transport between Maidenhead and High Wycombe.
"Once we have seen all the options I'm going to put together a briefing paper on it and see what the best way to proceed is."
He added: "We would like it as soon as possible if the numbers stack up."
However, it could take four or five years to implement and it is an idea being considered rather than policy at the current time, Mr Donnelly said.
The Wycombe Society, which has been promoting the idea since 1994, welcomed RBWM's move.
The society's transport spokesman Dr Elsa Woodward said the old track is largely intact with its own tunnel under the M40.
The society believe it would require only 1200m of diversions where the original track has been built over, which is about 15 per cent of its length.
Dr Woodward produced a report on the idea and estimated motorists between Wycombe and the three Thames Valley towns of Slough, Maidenhead and Reading drove a daily total of 278,000 miles - equivalent to travelling 11 times round the world.
She used data from the 2001 census and statistics produced by WDC in September 2005 about commuter mileage.
She said there was currently no viable bus service between High Wycombe and Maidenhead.
"It's a vital missing link. There's huge traffic between Wycombe and the Thames Valley and there's no public transport if you want to get to a job on time there's really no alternative to the car.
"It's vital for the health of the area's economy."
Dr Woodward added that ultra light rail is quiet, requires no overhead power supply and is extremely energy efficient.
There have been two studies examining the reinstatement commissioned by a Maidenhead businessman, Peter Prior, chairman of Summerleaze Ltd.
The preliminary investigation in June 2008 by Scott Wilson confirmed the feasibility.
A second carried out between November 2008 and February 2009 by Egis Mobilite included more detailed consideration of the necessary diversions.

Hello all,
I'm new to butterfly gardening and a week ago my sister gave me milk weed, queen anne's lace, and cosmos to get me started. Yesterday I discovered she'd done a great job getting me started as there are two monarch caterpillars on the Queen Anne's lace. I planted the plants the same day I got them and yesterday when I was watering my gardens I noticed the caterpillars on the Queen Anne's lace. I know they feed only on milk weed (but that's the extent of my knowledge so far) and think maybe they transferred over to the Queen Anne's Lace accidentally when they were in the trunk of the car as we transported the plants. The caterpillars were still on the queen anne's lace today (which has closed up into a ball due to the rain we're getting). The milk weed is planted about 4-5 feet away. I've checked on them a lot since yesterday, and they haven't moved from where they are and they haven't been moving much at all. They were not hanging upside down and moved over pretty willingly and easily to a milkweed leaf I coaxed them onto. The second one had a tiny bit of sticky white liquid at it's tail end, but still came over onto the milk week leaf. Now I'm worried that I've interrupted their pupate stage because I've just been reading about the silk pad they create. Could that little bit of sticky liquid have been the beginning of a silk pad? Now, I'm also wondering if they were on the Queen Anne's lace because they were preparing to pupate (as I just read they'll wander when they're getting ready.) If I did disturb them will they re-create the silk pad and begin pupating again on the milk weed?
Thanks for any advice and information. I'm thrilled to have them and hope I didn't hurt anything when I was trying to help.

While waiting for 'Cars 2′, watch 'Mater's Tall Tales'!
Among our cult car movies, Disney/Pixar's Cars ranks high. Very high. The way it pictures the car industry and culture, the characters, the photography, the design, even the storyline… it's a fantastic movie. So ever since Cars 2 has been announced we've been giddy like schoolgirls. Only problem is: we have to wait until 2012. To help us wait, John Lasseter's team had come up with a mini-series of shorts featuring the beloved Mater. The Cars Toons:... Read More

As I have mentioned before I have a quick and easy recipe for making mini-quiches that from start to finish only takes me about 30 minutes. The brilliant thing about quiches is that when you have the base ingredients of eggs, sour cream and pastry, what you then fill it with is up to you. Got some leftover veg? they can go in. Got some spinach and cheese, right on, lets do that. Want to make something fancy, go and buy some fancy 'faux' meats or cheeses or bits and pieces and in they go to. The combination of the flavours is yours.
These ones shown below are the classic spinach and feta.
Preheat the oven to 200C.
This is a quick cheats mini quiche. So I use store brought puff pastry. Yeah quiche is generally flaky shortcrust pastry, but that requires blind baking (ie EFFORT) and we don't want none of that. So defrost 3 sheets of puff pastry per 12 quiches. My cupcake pan has 12 cupcake holes. This math is the good type of math. Spray your mathematical 12 hole cupcake tray with a cooking spray.
I have a nifty super awesome pastry cutter from my pie maker. The smaller side makes a circle that fits exactly in my cupcake holes. That is also a good type of err geometry? Lets call it luck and move on. Cut 4 circles out of each pastry sheet. They should be soft and defrosted, so shove em in the holes. You will need to crimp some of the edges, so do that. Repeat for the other two pastry sheets. It's now ready to fill.
The egg mixture is the easiest yet most important part of the quiche. This is the secret. You need half an egg per mini-quiche plus an extra egg to round it out. So in this case I was making 2 dozen or 2 batches, so I used 12 eggs plus 2, and it turned out perfect. It took me several times making this recipe to figure out I needed an extra egg per try and 1/2 an egg per quiche. I've done all the leg work for you, just trust me, those extra eggs make it perfect. You also add salt and pepper and sour cream. For my two batches (2 dozen) I used a 250g tub of sour cream. So for one batch or a dozen, use half that. Whisk until all ingredients are combined. It does not have to be perfectly smooth, so don't over beat the eggs.
The feta I used was a garlic feta, here one pack of feta per batch, do two packs of 150g feta were used. Crumble it into a bowl. Take a pack of spinach (300g pack for 2 dozen) and put some baby spinach leaves raw into the raw pastry cases. enough to come to the top, but don't force it down. It needs airholes for the egg mixture to get into. Take some feta and drop it on top. Again don't press down, just let the weight of the feta hold down the spinach.
Now for those of you that caught on, if you wanted to use other fillings, instead of spinach and feta, you would do the same. Loosely fill each case with your filling so its has some gaps in it, and comes to pretty much the top of the case.
The next bit I have also done some perilous experimentation for you all. Do not put the egg mixture into a pouring container. This leads to much more mess and waste than you are ready for. Because the egg is bindey, and stretchy and kinda sticks together, it makes a massive mess. I take one of me 1/3 measuring cups, and fill it almost to the top and use that to fill each quiche with egg mixture. It works. Its the least messy way to do it, and it gives you the perfect amount. Do this slowly, the egg needs to run down the feta, around the spinach and find the holes and settle. If you do it too fast it will just spill over the edges.
When the egg settles it looks empty, but that baby puffs up. Do not overfill or it will go everywhere when cooking. Again ive done the experiments. This recipe is all about math and science and my own kitchen messes.
When its full its time to pop into the oven.
It takes about 15-20 minutes depending on your oven and patience. I turn my tray around half way through because I have a super warm spot at the back corner of my oven so it makes it evener. You will know when its ready by the pastry being puffy and brown on the edges, the egg mixture should have puffed up pretty big and it shouldn't been loose and still wet. It should be a firm puffy eggy yummy thing. It can be a little soft in the middle, as it will keep cooking a bit while resting.
Remove from the oven and place on a cooling rack. I use a fork to help lift the quiches out. They never stick (if the egg hasn't run under the pastry – again scientific experimentation has given me this proof). Repeat for second batch. Stand close to cooking quiches with a wooden spoon as husband has come wandering out due to tasty smells and keeps asking if anyone will notice one less. Smack his knuckles with the wooden spoon and send him and the dogs out of the kitchen. Place on a decorative tray and take to party. Let everyone think it was a super hard arduous feat at making such tasty yummy mini quiches. Revel in how easy it really was. These are the perfect finger food.
(makes 24)
6 sheets of puff pastry
300g feta
300g baby spinach
14 eggs
250g sour cream
salt and pepper
Preheat oven to 200C. Defrost puff pastry sheets. Spray cupcake tin with cooking spray. Cut 4 circles out of 3 pastry sheets. Place circles into cupcake tin. Fill each pastry case with baby spinach to the brim without packing it down, it needs to remain loose. Break up feta into a bowl and put some feta on top of each spinach filled pastry case.
Combine sour cream with eggs and add salt and pepper to taste and whisk until mostly combined. Take a 1/3 measuring cup and fill to mostly full and gently pour this into each pastry case. Allow the egg to flow down and fill all the holes. Do not add more egg mixture than this, or it will overflow when cooking. Repeat until all cases are filled with spinach and cheese and egg.
Place tray into preheated oven for 15-20 minutes until the pastry is brown around the edges and the egg mixture has puffed and firmed up and is not jiggly.
Remove tray from oven, and remove each quiche gently with a fork, onto a cooling rack. Serve immediately or later at room temperature.

Your skin is the foundation you build upon when you're applying your makeup, therefore you need to do your best to take great care of it. Without a smooth foundation you won't achieve optimal results from your makeup. There are 3 key steps you need to take in your skincare routine every single day:
1. Cleanse:
Cleansing your face is of the utmost importance. It's essential to wash away all of the oil and impurities your skin has accumulated during the day, allowing your skin to breathe. Make sure you do not use a cleanser that is too harsh or drying and always use a cleanser that is chemically balanced for the face. Currently I'm using this cleanser & I love it! It completely removes all of my makeup, eyes included! Not only does it remove my makeup but with four weeks of continued use you will notice your skin looking much more radiant and feeling smoother.
Burts Bees Facial Cleanser $10 at Target
2. Exfoliate:
Exfoliation rids the skin of dead skin cells allowing your moisturizer to penetrate deeper into your skin. Make sure you do not over exfoliate. Some skin types only need it once or twice a week, while others can benefit from a gentle exfoliation daily. You can use an exfolating scrub such as Clinique 7 Day Scrub Cream or this handy-dandy tool that I could never live without.
Clarisonic Mia 2 $149 at Nordstrom
3. Moisturize:
I cannot stress this enough, moisturize! Moisturizing is absolutely a must. In my time as a makeup artist I have seen the effects of a lifetime of not moisturizing. Trust me, you do not want to go there. I always say that no one is too young to start moisturizing or using eye cream. Not only does moisturizing help quench thirsty skin, it also prevents lines and wrinkles and retains your skins natural moisture balance. I'm currently using coconut oil as my moisturizer. Not only do I use it to moisturize, I also use it to cook with. The health benefits and uses for coconut oil are endless. I only use this as my nighttime moisturizer but you could also use it during the day. This also comes without the hefty price tag of most moisturizers you will find at the department store. You can pick this up at Whole Foods or my favorite local store, Natures Pharm.
Dr. Bronner's Magic "All One!" White Kernel Unrefined Coconut Oil $11 at Natures Pharm
Cleanse, Exfoliate, Moisturize. Goodnight!

"Stuck !!! in a Rudd"
For the last 3 yrs. out of 8 yrs, we have had the welds rewelded, coolant leak . Well, said very common??? We have two units. Yes, you have to replace both not one as the coolant does not go into the old unit when buying a new one. Think there's a recall on these???

""Buyer Beware" RUUD ultra"
I purchased an 18 plus seer Ruud Ultra system from ecm h/c in South Florida eight months ago. After 2 weeks, I came home to a hot house. The ecm technician came out and said the thermostat was bad. Two weeks later, the same thing happened. a message scrolled on the thermostat telling me to check ac and call for service. Technicians returned a few more times and in December removed and replaced the entire coil and additional sensors. After the coldest winter in Florida's recent history, I turned the unit back on to receive the same message. ecm returns and tells me the unit is experiencing a high voltage problem to call the power company and electrician. After having the power company and a master electrician check my power, they determined the power to my house was fine. ecm tells me Ruud says the unit is fine and their salesman who had at one time told me how patient I was will not answer or return my recent calls regarding this piece of junk. So much for the ecm no lemon policy. It seems that the manufacturer will not take responsibility and the dealer wants to dance around the subject while there was no problem cashing my check when the unit was purchased. I now have no trust whatever in both the manufacturer or the dealer.

"Ruud HVAC"
After 7 years, I have to replace my whole unit. I was told by the original installer that I have a leak in the compressor and leaks in the inside coil unit. Total cost $1600. The year before, I spent $600 to replace 2 parts in the compressor. The installer dyes left me high and dry by saying they could not help me but they would sell me a new one. I am very disappointed at the poor service and equipment Ruud sold me. I still have it so if you want to check out my complaint, plus the bill from last year. Why don't you stand by your product?

Purchased unit model uand/048jaz of the Ruud Achievers Series in November 2008 through a company by the name Frontier AC & Heating. The first unit installed had to be replaced last summer because it kept shutting off and blowing hot air during the summer of 2009. The unit was defective and simply did not work. The current unit, an exchange since the summer of 2009 worked well until 2 weeks ago. We have since experienced 3 malfunctions!!!! The company that installed the unit is on her way back to my house. I am sorely disappointed. Survisor to say the temperatures this winter in South Texas have been the coldest in a long time and the forecast for tonight isn't any better!!

The a/c unit that replaced a perfectly cooling Carrier does not adequately cool my home...I Called to inquire about the cooling problem and the 1000 rebate.The salesman promised a rebate but the owner informed me that 'if it wasn't on the contract it doesn't exist'A furnace was installed at the same time, and the first time it turned on I smelled gas. The gas company told me not to use the heat and call the company. The name of the company is Cummings Plumbing, Tucson

"Problems from day 1"
From the first year there was a coolant leak in the main coil of the air handler. So many soldered joints, it's no surprise. The a/c installer charged up the system and told me to call for a replacement if there was a future problem, and when I did the company had gone out of business. Now the compressor has failed - just out of warranty. Thanks for nothing, RUUD.

"Ruud Ultra = LEMON"
We are very dissatisfied with this system. We have had no air conditioning for 5 days (August 2009) during a very warm and humid spell, and the company that installed it is still waiting for parts. The problem appears to be a pressure valve, and the technician said this was the fourth one he had run into this year. Though we thought we were getting a state-of-the-art, energy-saving, trouble-free system, this is the fourth major problem or system failure in fourteen months. Defective fittings caused it to flood the crawl space under our house. This occurred right after it was installed (June 2008), and it took us 6 weeks to get the musty, mildew smell out and dry out the crawl space. When the heatring season began, we discovered the humidifier didn't work (improper installation). This spring (2009), we had no air for a week or so earlier in the season due to what was thought to be a compressor problem. When the parts came in, the technician checked it and couldn't find a problem with the old compressor! By contrast, aside from having to replace a couple of igniters, we never had a problem with our nearly 20-year old Comfortmaker. Don't buy a Ruud.

"Disgusted with Ruud"
We built a new home in 2002 and was told by a heat/air man that Ruud was the brand to go with. Had trouble with the heating unit first.Then constantly having problems with the outside unit. Every year that we've owned it, we have had to have maintenance done on it. Between leaks that it develops, wires burning up, motor going out, would not recommend this brand (Ruud).

"Ruud Review"
Had brand new outside unit installed June 22, 2009. Had to have new coil because old coil was not compatible with new freon. Unit was turned on at 4 pm. and thermostat set at 69. At 6 pm it had never cycled off. We are having high 90 degree weather. Our former Carrier Unit cycled on and off and cooled our house much better. Our installer suggests that we just let it run. He says we need more insulation in attic. Nothing changed except the outside unit and the new coil installed in the basement part of the unit. Helpful hints will be appreciated.

A mod masterpiece, the mini Luna Dress was one of the stars of our runway show. This limited-edition style is made of a base layer of fluid navy silk crepe de chine covered in an intricate, hand-applied sequin-and-bead mosaic tile-print. To craft just one of these gems, it takes a single artisan between six and seven days to complete. With that in mind, it's no surprise that we only made a handful (six, to be exact).

Oxford awaits matchup with Shepherd Hill
Rams on seven game winning streak
by Steev Riccardo
OXFORD – By the time the Oxford Pirates take the court Wednesday night, Jan. 23, against the Shepherd Hill Rams, they will have had a nine-day layoff due the snowstorm, which cancelled their game against Auburn last week.
With a 6-5 record and coming off three straight losses to Southern Worcester County League opponents Tantasqua, Uxbridge, and Quaboag, tonight's matchup with the Rams is huge.
"We are really looking forward to this game with Shepherd Hill," said Pirates coach Sean Halloran. "We are coming off this three-game losing streak so we are chomping at the bit to get at them. I went to see them play the other night and they are a very well coached team, as always."
Halloran, who played for Shepherd Hill coach Duane Corriveau when he played college ball at Clark University, anticipates a good game with the Rams. "They like to run and they like to shoot and (Michael) Rapoza is going to be a force for the next four years. We have our own freshman Jarod Buckley who I am very high on, so that should be a very good battle, not only in this game but also for the next four years. Our practices have been excellent and we are looking for a good battle, and to end our losing streak. We need to play and get that win."
The Rams are 9-3 overall and on a seven-game winning streak, including a win Friday night over East Longmeadow 74-69.
Senior co-captain Justin Terlizzi led the Rams with 21 points, while senior Tyler Martin had 15 and Rapoza added 13 points in the win over East Longmeadow.
Something has to give in this one, which looks like two equally matched teams both looking to get some wins under their belt and secure playoff spots.
