Subject: eco friendly house cleaner
I have used Sara Harris from Breathe Easy Cleaners here at Aria for a couple
years now. She uses earth friendly products and I give her the highest
recommendation that I could possibly offer. She is efficient, thorough,
professional and a blast to talk to. I am proud to call her a close friend
and trust her with access to my business when I am not here. That is not
something I do lightly.
Her number is 968-3085

Subject: Is anyone else as puzzled as I am?
We are told daily that we are in an extreme drought and are asked to conserve our precious water resources. It has only rained a few times in the last many months. How then did Jordan Lake go from being able to walk out to the island, to having LOTS of water covering the roadway to the island, etc. almost overnight? I'm just curious.Annhttp://idrathercrochet.spaces.live.com/ http://www.annbbw.com "Zero isn't a SIZE, it's a WARNING SIGN"!

It releases endorphins which are the body's own pain killers, decreases stress hormones and increases T cells which fight infections!!

“Water and Growth in Chatham County” will be the subject of a program
sponsored by the Chatham County Democratic Women on Sunday, February 10,
2007 at 3 p.m. in the multi-purpose room of the Central Carolina Community
College in Pittsboro.
Biologist Allison Weakley, chair of the Chatham County Environmental Review
Board, will speak on the effect of growth on the county’s water from an
ecological aspect. County Commissioner George Lucier will address the
effect of growth on the county’s ability to deliver clean water to its
citizens.
The program will be free of charge and open to the public. A question and
answer period will follow the presentations.
Allison Weakley has been an active participant in Chatham County planning
and development issues since 2003, reviewing subdivision proposals and
presenting information on natural resources and environmental impacts. She
currently serves on the Map Committee for the Chatham County Conservation
Partnership, the Project Oversight Committee for the Chatham County Parks
and Recreation Master Plan, and both the River Watch Steering Committee and
the Two Threatened Streams Steering Committee for the Haw River Assembly.
She has a Master’s Degree in Biology from UNC-CH and is a Consulting
Biologist who works on projects relating to water quality, landscape
integrity, rare species conservation and wildlife habitat. She has worked
as a biologist for the US Forest Service (USFS), National Forests of North
Carolina, land trusts, conservation organizations and private landowners,
conducting biological surveys and evaluations, analyzing the impact of
management alternatives on biological resources and providing expert opinion
for conservation planning. In addition to extensive field experience, she
has a background in environmental law and policy.
George Lucier is the Chair of the Science Advisory Board of the NC
Department of the Environment and Natural Resources, a member of a statewide
steering committee for the development of environmentally superior
technologies for handling hog wastes and also a member of a statewide
