The Twin Towers of the World Trade Center officially opened 40 years ago on April 4, 1973. At the time of their completion they were the tallest buildings in the world.
These photos, taken shortly after the World Trade Center was completed in the early 1970s, are part of the DOCUMERICA series, a program sponsored by the Environmental Protection Agency to photographically document subjects of environmental concern in America during the 1970s.
Find more images from DOCUMERICA at “Searching for the Seventies: The DOCUMERICA Photography Project,” now open at the National Archives in Washington, DC.

I haven’t made my way onto Tumblr lately, but I am never quite sure what to say, lets be honest, I don’t even have many people that will read this. BUT. I am excited for the step I am taking. I am starting Insanity on Saturday and am going to make a vow to better myself physically and mentally. I also know, that the only way I will better myself mentally is if I get rid of the one person who keeps me from being my best. Problem is. it is him. The reality of never talking to him again, I don’t even know what that feeling is like because it has never happened. But I know. I know. He does nothing but bring the worst out in me. But why, if I know ALL too well do I keep doing this to myself? I hope that my physical motivation I have will help clarify my emotional situation.
All I have for now.
Be kind.
Pop Culture Brain | Movies TV Music Web Theater: Re: 'Fifty Shades' and NC-17
Yes, ‘Shame’ ran in major chains last year — including AMC and Regal. But, the risk for the studio on such a a huge property, with the stigma that still persists around the NC-17 rating is a big gamble to take. They could swing for the fences and try to use it to dismantle the NC-17 firewall but…
This is the only way the first book should be filmed or it shouldn’t be filmed.
Grad Life
Tomorrow is a big step in my post-grad life. Right now I am between a rock and hard place but I know God has something planned I just need to have faith.
I have two interviews tomorrow. The first is with a marketing company in Bryan. Although I am excited to see where it could lead, my passion and true excitement is with my second interview or trial day. I will be spending the afternoon at KBTX studio. I will be learning basics and seeing if the job would be a fit for me. I have been passionate about editing ever since high school and I can only hope tomorrow works out.
My biggest fear is I don’t fit in or am unable to learn quick enough. Please keep me in your thoughts and prayers as I go through tomorrow!
I need these! ASAP

Happy Christmas Harry!
