Second 'Narnia' film packs in the action

Posted May 16, 2008 @ 05:27 PM

Film Review

Expect more box-office bling from "The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian," which piles on the action, darkens the tone, mixes in some humor and adds a touch of romance. It's a cinematic bouillabaisse bound to please the palates of its youthful audience. That said, the movie pushes the envelope of its PG rating with a slew of violence.

An old hooked rug in good condition is worth about $2,000

TREASURES IN YOUR ATTIC

Q: I have enclosed a photo of a handmade rug that my grandmother recently gave to me. It is oval and approximately 9-by-12 feet. There are two labels on the rug - one is still readable, the other is not. The rug is in very good shape for its age. Can you tell me anything about this rug and its value? S.P., Baldwinsville, N.Y.

New system a bit slow

Posted May 16, 2008 @ 03:04 PM

ASK THE CAREY BROTHERS

Q: My 1,200 sq. foot home used to be heated by a furnace from 1949 that ran at 25,000 BTU. Recently I changed the system to a newer, 7,000 BTU system. I thought this newer heater would be more efficient, but I find that it takes much longer to heat the house than the older system did. Is there something wrong with my furnace or do I need one that has a higher BTU?
