| Pulaski Financial Names Matthew Locke Mortgage Lending President
ST. LOUIS, MO -- 10/15/07 -- Pulaski Financial Corp. (NASDAQ: PULB) announced today that Matthew Locke, 38, will be the new president of the company's mortgage lending division. In this role, he will be responsible for managing all facets of Pulaski Bank's mortgage business, including the company's appraisal and title divisions. Locke will also join Pulaski's executive officer team, which is responsible for the development and implementation of the company's business policies and strategies. "Matt joined Pulaski in 1997 and has a proven track record of success over the past ten years in the bank's mortgage, home equity and consumer lending areas," said William A. Donius, Pulaski's Chairman and CEO. "He has successfully built several of our existing programs from the ground up. He initiated our consumer lending program over ten years ago, launched our home equity program almost five years ago, and established our Kansas City loan production operation in 2002.
The Little Book of Atheist Spirituality
Among the most important, he says, are what he calls "community" and "fidelity," arguing that while civil society is possible without God, it is not possible without the binding values religion has transmitted through the ages.
"This does not prove, however, that these values need God in order to subsist. On the contrary, everything tends to prove that weneed them-an ethics, a sense of communion and fidelity-in order to subsist in a way we find humanly acceptable." Such arguments are the soul of good intention, and few secularists could fault them. Certainly I can't -- yet seldom have I so disliked a book in which I find so many points of agreement.
Part of this no doubt rises from a personal animus toward Comte-Sponville's regard for the splendid labors of his own mind.
Real Estate Matters: Call lender before it starts foreclosing
Ireceived a call to my radio show just before the end of the year. It was from a woman who had just opened her mail to find a letter from the bank stating that it was starting foreclosure proceedings
She told me how she had lost her job and used up all her savings to keep making her mortgage, home equity line of credit, and credit card payments each month. After a while, it was too much to manage, even after she got a new job.
What she wanted to know was where she could go to get help that would stop the foreclosure proceedings.
