Saints 4 Carlisle 1
3:46pm Sunday 28th March 2010 in Sport
See today's Daily Echo for a special 24-page pullout celebrating Saints' Johnstone's Paint Trophy final at Wembley - featuring the best reports, reaction, colour and photographs of the big day.
SAINTS made a triumphant return to the big stage with a thumping Wembley victory over Carlisle in the final of the Johnstone's Paint Trophy this afternoon.
Top scorer Rickie Lambert, Adam Lallana, Papa Waigo and Michail Antonio grabbed the goals as Alan Pardew lifted the club's first silverware in 34 years.
Saints' first participation in this competition may illustrate just how far they have fallen since their top-flight days, but 44,000 supporters made the trip from the south coast to see the 2003 FA Cup finalists take on their League One rivals.
The 10-point penalty for going into administration has left Saints off the play-off pace and they are just one spot above Carlisle - but the teams are leagues apart in every other sense.
Peter Murphy handed them the lead, literally, in the 15th minute when he stuck out an arm to whip the ball from the head of Lambert.
The defender was fortunate to escape with a booking but Lambert exacted revenge from the penalty spot with his 32nd goal of a prolific season.
Carlisle had their moments in the first half, not least when Matty Robson's cross was headed onto the top of the crossbar by Ian Harte.
However, it was Southampton who grabbed a second goal two minutes before half-time. Lambert flicked on Antonio's long throw and Lallana was left with the simple task of nodding the ball past Adam Collin for his 16th goal of the season.
Any hopes of a Cumbrian comeback were crushed four minutes into the second half when Evan Horwood made a hash of Lambert's cross. Collin managed to keep out Antonio's shot but Senegalese striker Waigo was on hand to nod the rebound into an empty net.
On-loan Reading winger Antonio crashed in the fourth from the edge of the area on the hour, before Carlisle substitute Gary Madine gave the blue half of Wembley something to cheer with a late header.
For the best reports, reaction, colour and photos from Wembley, don't miss tomorrow's 24-page Daily Echo pullout.

Florida conservation groups begin petition drive to put ban on near-shore oil drilling in state constitutionby Willie Howard
The Florida Wildlife Federation has joined other conservation groups in pushing for a ban on oil drilling in Florida waters.
The goal is to put the drilling ban in Florida's constitution, where it would be safe from the political winds of Tallahassee.
Voters would need to approve the constitutional amendment. Organizers hope to put the measure on the ballot during the presidential election in November 2012.
The organization Save our Seas Beaches and Shores (www.sosbs.org) was formed by the Wildlife Federation and other partners to begin the process of gathering the approximately 685,000 signatures from Florida voters needed to place the measure on the ballot.
This year's Deepwater Horizon oil spill should give Florida voters a reason to sign the petition.
Gov. Charlie Crist called a special session in an attempt to put the measure on Tuesday's ballot, but legislators nixed that idea.
The ban would cover Florida waters only — 3 miles off the east coast and about 10 miles off the west coast. It would require voter approval and would not affect drilling in federal waters.
SOSBS is looking for volunteers to collect signatures from registered Florida voters.

Coffee from a nel is thick, focused and incredibly sweet – texturally reminiscent of mulled wine. It's quite moody and fragile, too: Water that's too hot, a hurried pour or even an offhand remark might wither its complexity. To make it correctly requires a surgeon's hand, a novelist's resolve and musician's capacity for improvisation.

There was a plea Monday from the family of a missing college student from Montgomery County.
Matt Royer, 21, has been missing since he left University of Rhode Island around 6:30 p.m. Thursday for his Collegeville home. His family and police are searching for him.
He was seen in a 2008 Chevy Cobalt getting gas an hour from home early Friday morning.
Police confirmed another sighting at 1 p.m. on Friday in Myerstown, about an hour and a half in the opposite direction of his Collegeville home.
Management at a hotel and diner near the intersection where Matt's car was spotted say they have no record of him as a customer.
On Monday, Matt's mother pleaded with her son to contact home.
"Matthew, if you can hear this, no matter what the circumstances are, your friends and your family, we all love you," Janet Royer said.
"Please contact us. Call home. We will come anywhere, any place, anytime for you. We are here for you, we love you and miss you. Thank you," she said.
FOX 29's Stephanie Esposito reported live from Collegeville on Monday night with more details.

And with so many of these eye-enhancing products available on the market, it's tough to figure out which ones are affordable and work the best. I've gathered up seven of the highest scoring drugstore mascaras, all thanks to the opinions you've submitted. One brand shows up on this list three times. Find which one it is now. CoverGirl Lash Blast Volume Blasting Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 By far the most popular drugstore mascara, CoverGirl Lash Blast Volume Blasting Mascara ($8.50) gets 4.5 stars. What's not to love about that big brush that gives loads of volume? Reader Pipeepoodle agreed. "The wand is honestly a bit silly (so large), so one must be careful not to get the product on your lids," she said. "Otherwise my lashes were still somewhat soft, looked full, and had nice definition. I highly recommend this mascara — it's so cheap!" 1 / 7 L'Oreal Double Extend Lash Extension Effect Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 L'Oreal's Double Extend Lash Extension Effect Mascara ($11) uses tube technology and a basecoat for long-wearing results. I thought this mascara was not too bad, but most of you loved it, awarding it 4.5 stars. Reviewer Steph55 called it "revolutionary," saying, "This is the first economical mascara that really does not clump or smudge and only requires water to remove. I also like how it delivers on length and volume. I simply love this mascara." 2 / 7 Maybelline Define-A-Lash Waterproof Volume Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 Maybelline's Define-A-Lash Waterproof Volume Mascara ($8) is touted as a non-clumping, high volume mascara. That's probably why it was given a 4.5 star rating. Reader Jenyjp thinks it's pretty fabulous. "I love trying different mascaras, but this one I've stuck with," she said. "For an inexpensive brand, this one delivers. Nice volume and it dries slower so you can work with it." 3 / 7 Max Factor Volume Couture Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 What's so great about Max Factor Volume Couture Mascara ($8)? Reader Laratf, explained, saying, "This stuff has been receiving a lot of hype from tons of the glossies and the beauty blogs so I felt I owed it to myself to give it a whirl. . . The brush is one of the silicone-y type ones and allows you to hit every lash. The effect is dramatic, yet natural, thicker, longer lashes. . . I recommend the Rich Black." Source: X17 Online 4 / 7 L'Oreal Voluminous Naturale Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 The second most frequently reviewed mascara, L'Oreal Voluminous Naturale Mascara ($7.50), receives 4.5 stars. Reviewer BettyKat told us why it's so great: "Voluminous by L'Oreal is still my number-one mascara after 20-plus years as a makeup junkie. I haven't tried every other mascara out there, but every time I try a different mascara, I'm sorry I do and go right back to Voluminous. The secret is the brush, I think, and not the the formula (although the formula is good — and I prefer the non-waterproof)." 6 / 7 L'Oreal Bare Naturale Luminous Lengthening Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 L'Oreal's Bare Naturale Luminous Lengthening Mascara ($10) is infused with natural minerals, and loyal reader BrittanyK calls it a staple product. She said, "I absolutely love it. It doesn't clump at all for me. It gives me a tiny bit of volume, which is nice, but it gives me a ton of length on my lashes and darkens them quite a bit. The best part about this stuff is that it gives you gorgeous lashes that look completely natural. . . It's definitely a staple in my makeup collection." 6 / 7 Revlon Lash Fantasy Total Definition Mascara What's Your Reaction? 0 0 0 0 0 0 With a name like this, Revlon's Lash Fantasy Total Definition Mascara ($9) has to work, right? That's what Rocketgirl thinks, saying, "When I want dramatic, thick eyelashes, this is the tube I go for. It's thicker than my every day mascara and dries with a matte finish. . . Overall, great for those days when my eyes want all the attention!" 7 / 7 14 3 1 1 0 Read More Reader ReviewDoing DrugstoreMascara Get a Personalized Fashion & Beauty Newsletter!

Converting from steam to hot-water heat?
Dan Holohan Published
July 16, 2009 Subscribe to RSS feed
First things first. Before the 1920s, most steam contractors used cast-iron, column-type radiators. Those are the free-standing ones with the real wide sections. Column radiators were perfect for steam heating because they had a lot of internal space and they allowed the steam to rise up and displace the heavier air. In the case of one-pipe steam, the air worked its way out of the radiator air vent. With two-pipe, the air escaped through the steam trap (or that old Vapor gizmo) and left the system through a vent somewhere down the main. Having a radiator with lots of internal space also allowed room for the condensate to get out of the way of the steam.
The trouble with those old column radiators, though, is that their makers never intended for them to be used with hot water. Those individual radiator sections aren't connected across the top, and that presents a challenge with water. You have to look real close to notice this on those old radiators, and it's the very first thing you should look for when you're considering a conversion from steam to hot water. If you don't see those top push nipples, the conversion isn't going to be very easy - or practical. Water won't flow well through a sectional radiator that's not connected across the top. To make it work, you'd have to drill and tap each section and install air vents all the way across the top. Or, if you have a LOT of patience, you can wait for the system water to absorb the air and move it to the air separator. This could take months.
After the 1920s, steamfitters began using cast-iron, tube-type radiators (the ones with the thin sections). These were actually hot water radiators, but they also worked well on steam systems. Building owners preferred them because they were nicer to look at. Tube-type radiators do have push nipples across the top of the sections, so if that's what you have, you can move on to the next step.
And that next step is to check to see if your system is one-pipe steam or two-pipe steam. This may seem like an easy thing to do, but don't go by just one or two radiators. Many systems have a combination of both one- and two-pipe radiators, and that's perfectly normal - for steam. Look it over. While it's possible to convert a one-pipe radiator to hot water, it's sometimes not practical. You have to run a second pipe from the top of each radiator back to the boiler. Some folks use radiant-floor tubing to do this. They drill and tap the top of the radiator section that's opposite the supply valve and then run either PEX tubing or rubber hose back to the boiler, connecting it to the mains with cable ties as they go. Once back in the boiler room, they use manifolds with individual circuit-balancing valves to make their return connection to the boiler. Most plumbing & heating supply houses sell this gear nowadays.
A conversion from two-pipe steam to hot water is usually easier to do, but examine the system carefully before you make a decision. Many of the older two-pipe systems were Vapor systems. There may be orifices in either the supply valves or the return elbows. Those radiator return elbows may also have tiny check valves or stainless-steel balls that can mess up the flow if you don't know they're there. Look the job over carefully and if you have any doubts, go to the Wall and ask for help.
Before you break out the tools, do a complete and accurate heat loss calculation on the entire building. Don't settle for one of those cockamamie rules of thumb that has you measuring the cube of the building and multiplying by an arbitrary number. Rule-of-thumb methods will oversize your system by a ridiculous amount. Take the time to do it right. If you don't know how to do a heat-loss calculation, check out the Quick Sizing Forms available from The Hydronics Institute (http://www.gamanet.org/publist/hydroordr.htm)
Once you get an accurate heat loss calculation, measure the existing radiation for square footage of Equivalent Direct Radiation (EDR). You're trying to find out if the radiation that's already in the building will be able to heat the place once the relatively cooler hot water is flowing through it.
Keep in mind that one-psi steam in a radiator will bring the surface of that radiator up to 215 degrees. Hot water, by comparison, is usually only about 180 degrees, tops. A square foot of steam EDR will put out 240 Btuh. Convert that radiator to hot water and you're only going to get about 150 Btuh out of that same square foot of radiation. So, for instance, if you have a five-tube, 26" high, 10-section, cast-iron radiator running on steam, it will emit 8,400 Btuh. Convert the system to 180- degree hot water and you'll get only 5,250 Btuh out of that radiator. If you're looking for a fast way to figure out how much EDR is in a radiator, get a copy of my book, The Golden Rules of Hydronic Heating, which you'll find in the Books & More section.
Once you've gone through that exercise, ask yourself if this lesser output from the radiators will be enough to heat each room on the coldest day of the year. This depends on the heat loss, and that's why you have to take the time to do both an accurate heat loss calculation AND a survey of the existing radiation.
If, after you've done your homework, you find the existing radiation can carry the heat loss on the coldest day of the year, you can move on to the next step.
Check the system for leaks. Keep in mind a steam system is used to seeing only about two-psi steam pressure. If there are leaks anywhere, you might not have noticed them at such a low pressure. This is especially true if the leaks are in the return lines. But when you fill the system with water the static pressure is going to be a lot higher. You'll notice those leaks for sure! It's so much better to find them before the conversion, if you can.
A two-story hot water system will have at least 12-psi static pressure on it. A three-story building will have 18-psi pressure, and so on. Add in the pump's pressure along with the pressure of the expanding water as it heats and you can see the dramatic difference between steam and hot water.
So before you commit to the job, raise the steam pressure to about 10-psi pressure and walk through the entire system looking for leaks. If they're there, they should show up under the increased steam pressure. Once you see them, you'll have a better idea of what you're up against, and you'll be able to make the decision as to whether or not you should move on from here.
Next, if the system looks sound, you can take out the tools and go to work. You'll have to remove the innards from all the thermostatic radiator traps and float & thermostatic traps near the ends of the main (if you have them) so the water will be able to flow freely. Again, be especially aware of any old Vapor equipment.
There's a big difference in size between the supply and return lines in a steam system so balancing will always be a challenge when you're running on hot water. Leave the old radiator supply valves in place if they're working. You'll be able to use them for balancing the flow and the heat once you have the system up and running.
Most two-pipe steam systems are similar to two-pipe, direct-return hot water systems. The big difference is that, unlike a hot water system, the return line doesn't increase much in size as it returns to the boiler. With steam, the lines are picking up condensate, not the much greater flow of water you expect to see in a hot water system. Because of this, you may have to redo the return lines to accommodate the greater flow you'll be seeing once you've converted the system. Are you beginning to see why I prefer to fix old steam systems rather than convert them to hot water?
The good news, however, is that each two-pipe radiator will have a return that's at least 1/2" in size. A 1/2" line can safely carry 1-1/2 gpm of hot water and that translates to about 15,000 BTUH, which is usually more than the typical radiator will need to put out to heat the average room.
If you're going to keep the old boiler, you'll have to change the trim, getting rid of the gauge glass, the low-water cutoff, pressuretrol and near-boiler piping. If you're replacing the boiler, you'll still be getting rid of the existing near-boiler piping and setting the boiler up as you normally would with a hot water system. If you're not sure how to do this, get a copy of Pumping Away, which is also in the Books & More section of www.HeatingHelp.com.
Size your circulator based on your heat loss calculation, not on the existing radiation. Take your gross BTUH load and divide by 10,000 to get the GPM for the pump. To figure pump head, measure the longest piping run, from the boiler to the furthest radiator and back. Allow six feet of pump head for each 100 feet of piping in that longest run. That's a rule of thumb, but it works well.
Use a good air separator. Every hot water system needs a good air separator.
Sizing the compression tank is tricky because there's going to be so much more water in those old steam pipes than you'd expect to find in a hot water system of the same BTUH rating. This is important because you base the size of the compression tank on the system's total water volume. Figure out how much water you have in the system, and then talk with the folks who sell the compression tanks. Don't depend on their quick-sizing charts in this case. They base those charts on standard hot water systems, not steam conversions.
You'll have to get a count on how many feet of each size pipe you have in the system to estimate the total water volume. Here's a chart that will help you figure out how much water you can expect to find in each foot of pipe:
Pipe Size Gallons in each linear foot
1/2" .016
3/4" .028
1" .045
1-1/4" .078
1-1/2" .106
2" .17
2-1/2" .25
3" .38
4" .66
5" 1.04
6" 1.5
If you've gotten this far, the next question will be, How do I control this hybrid I just created? The best way I know is to run the system on continuous circulator with an outdoor-air reset controller. It costs a bit more to set it up this way, but it is by far the best way I know to operate any hot water system, be it old or new.
When you're finished and everything seems to be working well, graciously accept all compliments on your piping skills, engineering abilities - and general good luck!

When planning a family vacation, costs can quickly skyrocket, as parents must factor in the price for kids and extra hotel rooms. Yet those who are willing to compromise a bit can easily accomplish everything they want to within a reasonable budget.
The Chicago Sun-Times recently profiled a family that wanted to have a great vacation without breaking the bank. At the same time, they weren't looking for a "staycation" - they still wanted to leave the country.
The family of four eventually settled on Costa Rica, thanks to a deal that allowed them to get round trip tickets for just $300 each. That left them plenty of wiggle room with their $4,000 budget for activities and lodging.
Skimping on the lodging was hit-and-miss. Using websites aimed at college students searching for hostels, the family was able to find some homestyle operations with affordable rates. Some of these were hidden gems with friendly owners who gave the travelers all the attention and service they would have received at more expensive hotels. Others featured sinks that came off the bathroom walls.
By avoiding a tour company, the family was able to shop for the cheapest price on their activities. Over their weeklong stay, they were able to snorkel, hike the rainforest and go on a horseback ride.

RBS to extend Post Office services
12:41am Saturday 22nd February 2014 in National News © Press Association 2014
Royal Bank of Scotland banking group customers will soon be able to use Post Office branches to place deposits into their accounts
Royal Bank of Scotland banking group customers will be able to use Post Office branches to place deposits into their accounts from later this year.
Personal and business customers of RBS as well as its sister banks NatWest and Ulster Bank will be able to pay in cheques or cash in any of the Post Office's 11,500 branches under the plans.
RBS said customers will start using Post Office branches to pay in deposits "later this year" but no exact date has been set.
The group already has a relationship with the Post Office which enables its customers to withdraw cash and check their balances at Post Office branches.
Previous research has found that 99% of people in the UK live within three miles of a Post Office.
The plans were announced amid speculation that RBS may be set to pull out of some riskier investment bank activities and put a renewed focus on retail customers and firms in the coming years.
A report in the Financial Times suggested that this could lead to as many as 30,000 jobs going.
Nick Kennett, director of Post Office Financial Services, said: "We are delighted to extend the services offered to RBS and NatWest personal and business customers through the Post Office."

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WDRB) -- Thursday night, the Muhammad Ali Center is hosting the Ali Humanitarian Awards, which will honor people who have made a difference in their communities.
Wednesday night, filmmakers gathered at the center for the premiere of "Muhammad Ali's Greatest Fight." Thursday night, The Ali Center will give ten awards to celebrities, politicians, and others who have done humanitarian work.
Former president Jimmy Carter will receive a Lifetime Achievement award. Singer Christina Aguilera will also receive the first ever Muhammad Ali Humanitarian of the Year award for her work on hunger relief.
Michael Bolton will take the stage to receive an award for gender equality. Bolton said, "And I think it's phenomenal to see someone that was my champion when I was about ten years old, in the ring, evolve in a way that he became even more of a champion, in my eyes, because he used all of his success and ability to bring the press and raise money and raise awareness to all these events involving human rights."
Six other awards were inspired by Ali's six core principles which serve as the foundation of the Ali Center.

Artistic Licence is well known in the entertainment industry for the products the company has designed and created. The company's product range encompasses DMX512-A, RDM, Ethernet, MIDI, and the company's own communication system, Art-Net. From test equipment to data distribution to motion control to LEDs, Artistic Licence evolved due to the problem-solving skills of its founder and managing director, Wayne Howell. However, the company is not just about creating new products, it also has its hand in using those products to develop custom projects through its Special Projects department.
The Middlesex, UK-based company came to fruition in 1988 when Howell, a product designer for Avolites, decided to leave the company and form his own firm. In the early years, it was just Howell working as a freelancer designing control systems for concert tours, museums, and corporate events. Gradually, it evolved into a products company because a few customers kept asking for the same thing time and time again, mainly touchscreen control systems. Howell was happy to oblige.
As successful as the products company was, Howell says that over the last year Artistic Licence has been doing products and projects almost equally. "The 50/50 split between products and projects works quite nice because they do feed off of each other," he says. "Projects spawn new product ideas, whereas new products get us project work. A customer sees something close to what they're trying to do, and they end up asking us to create a project for them. The trouble with being a projects-only company is it's a small cash flow; you only get paid when you get the projects, so it works to have both sides of it running as it really works hand in hand, I've found."
Currently Artistic Licence has eight full-time employees, many of whom have been with the company since the early days. Howell adds that he also has a regular stable of freelance designers "because we do such a wide range of different work," he says. "It doesn't make sense to have every specialist we could possibly need on staff full time."
As the company grew from just Howell in his workshop to his current staff of full-timers and freelancers, he credits two things for the expansion: keep the customers happy and don't borrow money from banks. "There's a lot to be said for it," he says, referring to the latter. "If you grow a business out of its profits, a lot of people consider that constraining. You don't make the classic mistake to simply expand past your ability to finance your expansion, which is why a lot of businesses die of in their second or third or fourth year."
Howell happily advises others to do the same thing, adding that it's "not perfectly correct, but it is my view." However, Howell admits he was in a different position than many entrepreneurs. While he was still at Avolites, he designed a product in his free time. Once it was designed he sold the rights to Avolites and that fee set Howell on his way to starting Artistic Licence. That product was the Q-patch, a system that took analogue outputs and translated them into DMX512 at a time when DMX512 was just beginning to take hold in the entertainment industry. The Q-patch allowed users to patch and merge the data.
Like any good entrepreneur, Howell believes in keeping his employees happy and to do so he makes sure that everyone has input into what the Artistic Licence is working on at any given moment, within reason. He describes his management style as being "somewhere between a democracy and a benign dictatorship," he says laughingly. He adds that since the company is evenly split between developing products and projects, that the variety of the work keeps his employees happy because it's not the same old, same old.
Artistic Licence's success, especially in the last few years, can be directly attributed to the development of new technology as well as the buzzword of the year, convergence. "From our point of view, Ethernet and LED technology have evolved in tandem and one depends on the other," Howell says. "From Artistic Licence's point of view, the Ethernet technology has been very important in terms of spawning a new generation of products and getting involved in exciting new projects. It also feeds through to the LED side as well. We got involved in convergence before the phrase was coined and that's been our focus for several years."
As far as Howell is concerned, convergence is fundamentally a good thing, but he adds that it is difficult to call. "It's probably fair to say that some of the vidiots are little bent out of shape because the LDs are stamping around on their domain," he says. "Lighting and video designers have different views and both are valid. [Convergence] is good for the art and design point of view. It's certainly good from a product design point of view because it forces you to think outside of the tunnel you become used to if all your products in the past are all lighting. It forces you to take a wider view when you're designing products." He adds that the whole convergence issue has been "overhyped just a bit at the moment."
For the future, Howell says Artistic Licence will continue to push down the line with both LED and Ethernet technologies. "On the Ethernet side we got involved with the public domain drive. Fifty or so companies are using Art-Net, which has generated a market for our products and we want to continue to develop and evolve those items," he says, adding that he is frustrated by certain manufacturers who are doing their own thing regarding proprietary products. "DMX proved that cross-manufacturing is good for the market. We're proving the same thing for the next generation of higher bandwidth control."
Referring to the LED side of the latest technology trends, Howell assures ED readers that Artistic Licence is only a couple months away from launching a new "convergence product," and adds that the designers who have seen the prototype have been very impressed. "We see a bright future, forgive the pun," he adds.

Fab Five Freddy Saw the Old Friends at Rammellzee Opening
"It's a bit of a story, but he found us," said filmmaker Charlie Ahearn about the late graffiti artist Rammellzee at the opening of "Rammellzee: The Letter Racers," the debut show for Suzanne Geiss Company, a new gallery in Soho. "He was seeking out people he wanted to contact like Fab Five Freddy and Jean-Michel Basquiat and Fred was working with me on the film."
Mr. Ahearn, who was speaking of the iconic '80s hip-hop film he directed, Wild Style, was standing with Gallerist in a black-lit room. Above us, there were 26 "letter racers"—skateboards souped up and hung from the ceiling like a flock of aerodynamic, robotic birds flying madly out of a cave. Read More

It was a repair that cost this consumer thousands and the work is still not even finished!
Renee Johnson thought she could put her trust into the company she hired Marion Construction but had to find out the hard way they would not live up to their promise.
Last October when Renee Johnson hired Marion Construction, a Laneville company that goes by the motto "Building Your Dreams," she didn't think she'd be living this nightmare today.
"I wrote him a check and then it was downhill from there," says Renee.
Renee needed a leaky roof repaired and the proposal written up by Marion Construction said the work would include installing new decking, felt, shingles and repainting the inside bedroom where the leak occurred.
Renee wrote a check for the full amount of $4,100.
"[The owner, Scott Marion] said that would cover the roof and the repairs on the inside where the existing roof had leaked," says Renee.
But this is what Renee's roof looks like today nearly 6 months later. A sheet of this metal covering screwed to her roof.
Renee adds, "He went as far as calking the screws and I didn't think that was a very good way of repairing the problem."
These pictures show what happens when water gets through, the leak seeping through her walls and ceiling.
"I mean she has got a tarp on her roof. I mean that's unconscionable!,"says Better Business Bureau of Central East Texas President Kay Robinson.
Robinson says inquiries on roofing companies come into her office daily.
"The problem is that you never never never pay for the whole amount up front. You pay in increments and you certainly have a right to see the type of product that you are having put on your roof," says Robinson.
Renee says she couldn't get cooperation from the company or it's owner Scott Marion, so she took it to court.
Renee won. A judge ruling she should be awarded $3,000 plus interest; far greater than the $1,100 the company offered to give before.
"I was going to stand up for what I felt was right," says Renee.
Robinson adds, "The right thing to do is to either send somebody out there that knows what they're doing and do the job correctly or refund her money!"
7 On Your Side agrees that is the right thing to do. But we have been given no indication that's going to happen. Marion Construction has not returned any of our calls or emails.
Renee has the option according to the judge to file an "abstract of judgement."
If at any point the roofing company sells something for profit, she will be paid her $3,000.
