My visit to the High Line in NYC

June 28, 2009

The High Line was built in the 1930s, as part of the West Side Improvement. It lifted freight traffic 30 feet in the air, removing dangerous trains from the streets of Manhattan’s largest industrial district in the West Side, from Gansevoort St. to 34th St. No trains have run on the High Line since 1980.

The Endocrine Society’s report on BPA

June 13, 2009

I know most of you heard that Bisphenol A (BPA) is harmful and that hard plastic water bottles, that made Nalgene famous, contained BPA.
