Sandy hurricane began to lose steam Tuesday as it flowed across Pennsylvania and turned to Canada. However, it did make serious destructions, The Charlotte Observer notes.

People were shocked at the sight of a Bayliner pleasure boat that was swept into the very end of Sheepshead Bay, crashing into the concrete abutment. The smell of gas went off from its tank.

An Armenian woman Bella Kharajyan with her daughter, Milena Rangini, 27, had spent a long, exhausting night in their second-floor apartment in Brighton Beach as other residents gathered to their door, knowing that the two women from Armenia spoke English and could understand the news reports.

Kharajyan complained of the lack of help for people who do not speak English and Spanish, for example, their Armenian or Uzbek speaking neighbors.
