Almost a month ago, we had taken a trip on one of many extremely cold days to go on a tour of East Harlem, a cultural melting pot.  On the trip, Prof. Rosenblum mentioned that this trip was just days before a gas leak led to a building explosion in East Harlem.

Today marks the one-year anniversary of this tragedy.  This article shows the story of an immigrant who lost his wife and daughter in the incident, and how he is coping a year later.  His son, who was severely injured, is doing better, but neither he nor his son will never be the same.
