What are some amazing facts about Niagara Falls?
Have you ever thought, Niagara Falls with No Water ?Yes, In 1969, there was No Water at Niagara Falls.The team from the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers dammed the American Falls in June 1969 to clear rocks from the base of the falls.Rockslides caused a significant buildup of rock at the bottom of the American side of the falls, and the engineers were to clean up the rock and repair some faults to prevent eventual erosion of the American side of the waterfall.A temporary dam 600 feet (180 m.) was built to divert the flow of water to the Canadian side and was made of nearly 30,000 tons of rock.The engineers cleared the rock debris and tested for safety, finishing the project in November of that year and Water flow was restored on November 25, 1969.Always, Be Happy, Be KindRegards.PS - I have just about come to know this.
What is the best time of the year to visit Niagara Falls?
I would give my voice for autumn for two reasons:September and October have one benefit other months don't—it's grape harvest season, and tourists may go to Niagara Grape & Wine Festival.Also early November marks the start of Winter Festival of Lights.Speaking more generally, the weather is best between April and early November, when most attractions and outdoor activities are available. If you travel in other months, you'll simply have fewer things to do in NF.I also suggest to explore more seasonal specials in Niagara Falls.
When does it start to snow in Buffalo, NY?
Snow usually starts mid- to late-November, though I remember many Thanksgivings with NO snow on the ground, and some WITH. Last year we didn’t have a white Christmas. Some years we don’t. We currently are below-normal snowfall.I’m writing this on December 11th, 2017 and I live in the city of Buffalo. I think this is the 2nd or 3rd day it snowed THIS SEASON (Fall/Winter.) This snow came last night. There’s about an inch or so. YES, those are leaves still on the maple tree in front of my house! It snowed Wednesday or Thursday about the same amount but was gone the next day.We made the national news Sunday, the 10th, when Lake Effect Snow hit New Era Field in Orchard Park, a suburb, during the Buffalo Bills football game against the Indianapolis Colts.http://prod.images.bills.clubs.n...It was white-out conditions and accumulation was about 5–8 inches in 3–4 hours. You don’t see that in my picture above, taken less than 24 hours later, but **IN** the city. There are suburbs or towns less than 30 minutes away that received anywhere from 2 inches to 22 inches during the week.Hope this helps!
How many battles have there ever been in the history of the world?
Some of that depends on what you classify as a “battle” many cases of organized human conflict involved bands that weren’t really part of a state or government. That a long period of human history. If you narrow it down to those involving states, we get into the period of the last 8000 years. We can get some estimate by looking at historical gender ratios and estimate percent of males that died in warfare and then set an average battle size and extrapolate. The size of deaths in battles gradually rose into the modern period.The Waning of War - Images and VideosWarfare is waning, but incarceration seems on the rise, indicating something is changing.This may be important because it has affected male/female gender ratio which in turn affects a lot of other things.How the Woman/Man Ratio Affects Sex, Facial Hair, and Politics
In the war of 1812 (the u.s. vs. british, french, and the natives) who won/?
I believe that you have your dates mixed. The war of 1812 was between Great Britain and they United States. The war with the French, Indians, Great Britain, and the United States was from 1756 to a763 and was referred to differently depending who you were: French and Indian War in the United States The British Conquest or War of the Conquest in Quebec and Ontario + The Seven Years' War in France, Britain, and Canada The French and Indian War was the nine-year North American chapter of the Seven Years War. The conflict resulted in the British acquiring Canada, while Spain regained Cuba in compensation for its loss of Florida to the British. French administrative presence in North America was almost completely removed.

What is it like to live in Buffalo, NY?
Buffalo is the best small city I know. I live in Buffalo, but grew up in Rochester and Syracuse. I travel a lot for work, so I've been to quite a few cities, but none have the energy and atmosphere of Buffalo. The younger crowd is friendly, accepting, and active in the community, always holding events for the betterment of Buffalo, and the older crowd recognizes that Buffalo has a bright future, and they shouldn't stand in the way. I'm not sure what anon is so upset about, it seems his troubles stem from his lack of friendliness, I moved to Buffalo almost two years ago, and was immediately accepted into circles I thought I had no business in, people of "power" in the city are humble and accepting of others, and whomever wants to make their mark certainly will be helped all the way as long as they ask. When I talk about friendly, I don't mean friendly southern hospitality, no one puts on a show to make sure you're comfortable and smiles when they don't mean it. Its a mutual respect thing that they will help out anyone who needs help or asks for it, and are genuinely nice when you are nice to them. Buffalo has a fantastic restaurant scene, with places like Vera, Mothers, Liberty Hound, Chophouse, and much, much more that can make your Friday and Saturday night one to remember. The architecture is amazing even with the fact that more has been destroyed than exists today. Famous designers such as EB Green, Fredrick Law Olmstead (Designer of Central Park), and of course Frank Lloyd Wright have made their mark around town that cannot be missed. Buffalo also has a rich history, from Grover Cleveland to Teddy Roosevelt, many historical greats have left their mark on the town. Presidential assassinations, Tesla experiments, secret societies, and more. Buffalo was rated as the second best city to relocate to in the US for a reason, and as time goes on, I can only imagine it will be harder and harder to say it isn't number 1.
