After reading a couple of news articles I was a little upset. Recently an abortionist was killed and the media coverage was everywhere talking about hate crimes, etc. Now a soldier was killed in Arkansas (by a Muslim) and the media never covered it.. I don't understand the reasoning here. So, I did a search on google and wanted to share what I found. Check out the search for yourself and click on

Did you know that there's a great HVAC company in the heart of Cary? We didn't either until we called. Our furnace blower broke and they had us up and running in no time! They went out of their way to make sure that we had our heat back on since it was going to be 20 degrees tonight!
