Family compact

	Bellingham, Washington - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The city and port have entered into a partnership to jointly clean up and redevelop the property, which has been named New Whatcom after the township of which the area was originally a part.
		Some concern has been expressed by residents over the loss of viable industrial land in the city, however residential and commercial use of the area is seen to prevent further urban sprawl on undeveloped land at the edges of the city.
		In the city the population was spread out with 17.7% under the age of 18, 23.8% from 18 to 24, 26.5% from 25 to 44, 19.6% from 45 to 64, and 12.4% who were 65 years of age or older.

	CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Martin Luther
		The city of Worms itself was within the grasp of a reign of lawlessness, debauchery, and murder.
		From the bristling Ebernburg, Sickingen's lair, only six miles fromm the city, Hutten was hurling his truculent philippics, threatening with outrage and death the legate (whom he had failed to waylay), the spiritual princes and church dignitaries, not sparing even the emperor, whose pension as a bribe to silence had hardly been received.
		Left to the seclusion of his own thoughts and reflections, undisturbed by the excitement of political and polemical agitation, he became the victim of an interior struggle that made him writhe in the throes of racking anxiety, distressing doubts and agonizing reproaches of conscience.

	A subdued hearing on Fleet acquisition - The Boston Globe
		With Boston set to lose its largest hometown bank in one of the biggest mergers in the industry's history, it was a North Carolina group that formed one of the last lines of defense yesterday.
		"Our excitement at the prospect of being a part of one of the most respected corporations in the US is palpable throughout Fleet," said Chad Gifford, Fleet's chief executive.
		Yesterday's subdued hearing contrasted with a similar event five years ago, when Fleet proposed a merger with BankBoston Corp. With protesters crowding into the downtown auditorium at the time, Boston Mayor Thomas M. Menino blasted the two banks, saying the merger would take the focus away from Massachusetts.

		The excitement over a possible casino in Bridgeport appears to be a lot more subdued this time around the gambling merry-go-round.
		While the city is the home turf of the Golden Hill Paugussetts, who have appealed an earlier BIA rejection of their federal recognition application, the Schaghticokes have opened the lines of communication with the city.
		Bridgeport isn't the same city it was in the mid-1990s, Timpanelli said.

		The ancient city was destroyed by the Romans (B.C. 146), and that mentioned in the New Testament was quite a new city, having been rebuilt about a century afterwards and peopled by a colony of freedmen from Rome.
		The tax-gatherers were termed publicans (q.v.), who had their stations at the gates of cities, and in the public highways, and at the place set apart for that purpose, called the "receipt of custom" (Matt.9: 9; Mark 2:14), where they collected the money that was to be paid on certain goods (Matt.17:25).
		This new city of Dan became to them a new home, and was wont to be spoken of as the northern limit of Palestine, the length of which came to be denoted by the expression "from Dan to Beersheba", i.e., about 144 miles.

	GILLETTE, IDEAL CITY PROPOSAL
		In the building of this great central city, it must be considered in the light of a machine, or rather a part of the machine of production and distribution; and, as such, the objects to be attained must be known and understood.
		My idea is that the city should be actually a city of porcelain, as far as outside appearance was concerned, except where glass was used, and where wood or metal was used for window frames and doors.
		The manufacturing and residence portion of the city would be connected by a continuation of the three platforms, which would be the same in all sections of the city, and which would also be continued in the form of bridges over the river.

	James Wilson The Scottish Radical Martyr
		In October of that year some 40,000 persons assembled at Thrushgrove, near the city, and passed resolutions demanding redress of grievances; and so fearful were the magistrates of a riotous outbreak that they had the 42nd Highlanders at the barracks in Gallowgate and the dragoons in the cavalry quarters under arms in readiness for action.
		Towards the end of 1819, the working classes of the city of Glasgow were in great distress through want of employment and the state of matters was attributed to political causes.
		On 6th July - "trial commenced amid the greatest excitement" - eighteen of them were brought up for trial at Edinburgh on a charge of high treason and notwithstanding the eloquence of Francis Jeffrey, who was retained for their defence, all were convicted.

		Annexation of surrounding farmland and county wilderness has been kept to a minimum due to public concern for environmental preservation, but several controversies have risen over the city's decisions to counteract the loss of land with lifted height caps on new downtown buildings.
		The tongue in cheek nickname of Bellingham is the "City of Subdued Excitement." In the early 1980s, a local politician called Bellingham this in seriousness, and the local alternative press and alternative culture has been using this nickname ever since.
		As of the 2000 census, the city had a total population of 67,171, although a recent calculation places the city's population at 73,469 [1].

		But his experience is mostly limited to his own part of the city, so his challenge in outings like this (and the rest of the day’s frenetic schedule would include trips to East Boston, Dorchester, Hyde Park, and South Boston) is to get citywide credibility.

	CHURCH FATHERS: City of God, Book XIV (St. Augustine)
		And the city or society of the wicked, who live not according to God, but according to man, and who accept the doctrines of men or devils in the worship of a false and contempt of the true divinity, is shaken with those wicked emotions as by diseases and disturbances.
		And this lust not only takes possession of the whole body and outward members, but also makes itself felt within, and moves the whole man with a passion in which mental emotion is mingled with bodily appetite, so that the pleasure which results is the greatest of all bodily pleasures.
		Accordingly, two cities have been formed by two loves: the earthly by the love of self, even to the contempt of God; the heavenly by the love of God, even to the contempt of self.

	The Man Who Gilded the Gilded Age by David Garrard Lowe, City Journal Autumn 1996
		In a city where Anglo-Saxon prejudices condemned as immoral the idea of unrelated families of either the middle or upper classes lodging under one roof, the Studio Building was a pioneering venture in apartment living.
		All remembered Hunt’s “vehement and strenuous manner” of teaching, his “excitement and enthusiasms,” his cries of “draw, draw, draw; sketch, sketch!” and his sudden dashes to the flboard to scrawl “You are lazy!” when he was displeased with a student’s work or “Wonderful!” when he was pleased.
		Out of it would be born the nationwide City Beautiful movement in urban planning and architecture, and the fair’s chief of construction, Daniel Burnham, would give to Chicago a peerlessly planned lakefront, and to Washington, a re-classicized Mall, on these principles.

	CHURCH FATHERS: City of God, Book II (St. Augustine)
		Compare now human nature as you see it in Plato, expelling poets from the city that the citizens be uninjured, with the divine nature as you see it in these gods exacting plays in their own honor.
		It is obvious, therefore, that the Romans could not receive, nor reasonably expect to receive, laws for the regulation of their conduct from their gods, since the laws they themselves enacted far surpassed and put to shame the morality of the gods.
		Now, the departure of the gods "from each fane, each sacred shrine," and their abandonment of the city to destruction, was an act of justice, if their laws inculcating justice and a moral life had been held in contempt by that city.

		The Rev. Al Sharpton -- once a blustering symbol of dissent among Democrats who was given the moniker "Al Charlatan" -- won repeated standing ovations for his speech criticizing Bush and calling for racial equality.
		Democrats, who were given marching orders to present an optimistic image, insist that their unity is about excitement for Kerry, and not vitriol against Bush.
		But it was clear this week, from receptions and caucus meetings around the city, that the one thing the delegates agreed on was their mutual desire to get Bush out of office.

		"Excitement is building around the introduction of the next-generation consoles, the first of which could launch as early as this year-end," he said.
		Presumably, the executive was obliquely referring to the next-gen Xbox, which Microsoft chairman Bill Gates accidentally confirmed is coming in 2005.
		True Crime makes decent attempts at different styles of gameplay, but none of them are particularly well done, and the game's storyline doesn't tie them together in a satisfying way.

		The city has found that 75 cents of every dollar passing through hands here is related to the local fishing industry.4 That’s a strong figure illuminating a fish dependency this city is proud of.
		However, a formal agreement between the city and a handful of major property owners in Fairhaven established a parking district several years ago, along with certain tenets of intermittent motor vehicle storage within the prescribed district boundaries that are purely irrelevant to most mortals.
