	Massachusetts - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Massachusetts (officially, The Commonwealth of Massachusetts) is a state in the New England region of the United States of America.
		The Massachusetts Bay Colony was named after the indigenous population, the Massachusett, whose name means "a large hill place" in reference to a small mountain known today as "Blue Hill" (located on the boundary of Milton and Canton, just south of Boston).
		Massachusetts is known as the Bay State because of the several large bays that give its coastline its distinctive shape: Massachusetts Bay and Cape Cod Bay on the state's east coast, and Buzzards Bay to the south.

	CIS: State Symbols
		Commonwealths are states, but the reverse is not true.
		There also may have been some anti-monarchic sentiment in using the word "Commonwealth." The name, which in the eighteenth century was used to mean "republic", can be traced to the second draft of the state Constitution, written by John Adams and accepted by the people in 1780.
		Although the Commonwealth is not overly blessed with mineral resources, it is one of the few locations in the world where this usually jet fl material with a brilliant submetallic luster is found.

	NABB - Laura Dwight's Magnolias
		She foresaw the effect of having the whole avenue bloom at once with a row of the most floriferous of trees, the saucer magnolia - its showy flowers a rich pink at the base and a creamy white at the petal tips.
		In the l960s, Miss Dwight, a resident of the Back Bay who was then in her sixties, conceived of such a scheme for beautifying Commonwealth Avenue and had the energy and persuasiveness to carry it out.
		From her apartment on Commonwealth Avenue, Laura Dwight observed the once-elegant Back Bay section of Boston deteriorating all around her, and she became aroused, even irate at the apathy and detachment of local residents.

		The commonwealth's evidence tended to show that the defendant and his associates, on said day, and at the point described, caught with said seine a large quantity of the fish called 'menhaden.'

		Buzzard's bay was undoubtedly within the territory described in the charter of the colony of New Plymouth and the Provincecharter.
		It is further insisted by the plaintiff in error, that the control of the fisheries of Buzzard's bay is, by the constitution of the United States, exclusively with the United States, and that the statute of Massachusetts is repugnant to that constitution and to the laws of the United States.

		Even the wealth that went to the Back Bay found that it "cannot buy with gold the old associations"; and the Back Bay is, after all, just street after street filled with houses, representative of comfortable living, which are too ordinary to praise and yet not bad enough to criticise.
		The Back Bay and the Fenlands, one merging imperceptibly into the other, are really one great flat region recovered from the swamps, the Fenlands possessing the great advantage of having a great part kept as parkways, with water and bridges.

		And while most of the historic uses of the Bay have been preserved, there is increasing competition for use of the Bay's resources among a variety of recreational and commercial activities.
