Three months working on the street. All the cars are just covered in dirt, kifrt consistently for the past three months. A character worked in august and september to replace smaller mains on the street that feeds into the bigger main that broke. In recent weeks street repair had begun, they dont think that was the reason it broke, it was cold and the main dates back to 1893. Age may have play aid factor, or the cold, but we cant determine that, but it was not the worker. As we look back live the Water Department crews. Just beginning the workout here, the german town should stay shut down for several days, given all the water out on the street its amazing that one property got water in the basement.

The basement. The water was shut off and debris and mud was left in its place. Well be closed from fourth and jefferson. Wilson alvarez was outs side of this Corner Market where he works cleaning unthe mess and he was relieved there was no flooding in his basement but not everyone was that lucky.

The crews remained on the scene for hours and it happened on a main that dates back to 1893, and it carries water to smaller mains and neighbors are frustrating saying there is work going on for months. I think they hit another pim line, it happened before and we didnt have no hot water, and we have to wait until they go back into the ground and fix it. How long will they let this sit there, this debris was here for three months, without being cleaned up. What led to this water main break remains under investigation. Two suspects are questioned in the assault a
Enough to write a vast symphonic work, to inspire a magnificent novel and bring down a great emperor. On this day of battle more russians died than were killed or would die of illness in the whole of the war of 1812 on all sides. This really was a titanic clash of two emporers and two vast armies numbering close on 200,000 men each. The war of 1812 would not be fought by armies of 200,000 men. In fact, it wouldnt be fought by 200,000 men all told. As 1813 began James Madison knew that napoleon had lost. His army was in full retreat. Indeed, it was in complete collapse. He had taken his country to war on the premise the french would win. They had lost. Now what was going to happen . This also took the pressure off brittain and it released naval reinforcements from the british fleet in the baltic which had been keeping it open for trade the previous five years. Those ships and key personnel were moved across to the north american station. The british picked out the right ships and the ri
