   As Chair of the Eastern Market Community Advisory Committee, I just came from a meeting with Council member Tommy Wells, Deputy Mayor Dan Tanglerhini and the vendors and market merchants and I am happy to report that the outside market will be open on Saturday and Market Day on Sunday will go on as planned. The city is committed to rebuliding . There is hope.

   Hi, I’m in the UK fire service and although it’s always distressing for communities that are seriously damaged by fire, it is always comforting to know that nobody was seriously hurt. Saving life is always a priority for firefighters but what isn’t always publicised is the excellent salvage work that they do to prevent further damage to historic buildings and contents as in this case.
