  ICE BATTLE
An effort was made to begin de-icing operation late in the afternoon of 28 January but the wind was so high that it tore the hose stream apart and instead of helping the situation it just added a slick coating to the decks and made it extremely hazardous for personnel.
Ice was removed from the main deck first were the added weight of the salt water used in the operation would have the least harmful effect on stability and where the water would run off the ship most rapidly.
About the time that the majority of the ice was removed from the main deck the OWASCO entered field ice and the wind and seas abated.

 Lake Peipus 1242: Battle of the Ice - Wal-Mart
The battle of Lake Peipus took place in 1242 between the Teutonic Knights and the Russian city-state of Novgorod, led by its inspirational leader Alexandre Nevskii.

Rich, creamy ice cream, hand-made in the back room each morning in the old-fashioned way, cranked in ancient ice-cream makers chilled with ice and salt.
There is no other ice cream like it, anywhere, unless you make your own at home and skimp on nothing.
Graeter's makes a very different style of ice cream using a traditional process called "French pot." Equally as rich as Ehrmann's, it seems more dense, perhaps starting with an egg custard in contrast with Ehrmann's pure cream, and is so heavy that it bends a plastic spoon when you scoop it from your cup.
