There are many reasons why I can think of to support this path. Primarily as it will affect me, it will create a clear, direct, and safe route connecting Belmont with Alewife Station, as well as the Minuteman Bike Path and a broader thriving bike network. The current path in this direction ends prematurely, and extending and connecting it would greatly increase the 'livability' of the community by providing safe active transportation options for more users! In addition, the path and railroad underpass creates safe routes to school for children. Thank you for your consideration and please support this project! All the best, --Max Boston Region MPO 2 Belmont (#609204): Community Path, Belmont Component of the MCRT (Phase 1) March 27, 2021 Good morning Matt, My name is Jessica Przysiecki and I am a new resident to Belmont, recently moving here from Somerville near Davis Square.

  • James Russell Lowell - Poems
    Classic Poetry Series James Russell Lowell - poems - Publication Date: 2012 Publisher: Poemhunter.com - The World's Poetry Archive James Russell Lowell(22 February 1819 – 12 August 1891) James Russell Lowell was an American Romantic poet, critic, editor, and diplomat. He is associated with the Fireside Poets, a group of New England writers who were among the first American poets who rivaled the popularity of British poets. These poets usually used conventional forms and meters in their poetry, making them suitable for families entertaining at their fireside. Lowell graduated from Harvard College in 1838, despite his reputation as a troublemaker, and went on to earn a law degree from Harvard Law School. He published his first collection of poetry in 1841 and married Maria White in 1844. He and his wife had several children, though only one survived past childhood. The couple soon became involved in the movement to abolish slavery, with Lowell using poetry to express his anti-slavery views and taking a job in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania as the editor of an abolitionist newspaper. After moving back to Cambridge, Lowell was one of the founders of a journal called The Pioneer, which lasted only three issues. He gained notoriety in 1848 with the publication of A Fable for Critics, a book-length poem satirizing contemporary critics and poets. The same year, he published The Biglow Papers, which increased his fame. He would publish several other poetry collections and essay collections throughout his literary career. Maria White died in 1853, and Lowell accepted a professorship of languages at Harvard in 1854.

The stories of those who raised themselves from obscure and humble origins to positions of wealth and status, whilst retaining a sufficiency of Protestant social responsibility, were widely distributed and well received amongst a people daily experiencing the personal instabilities of the market revolution.2 Two families which represented the ideal of social mobility 1 A version of this essay was first read at the conference of the British Association for American Studies, Birmingham, and April 1997.

  • Letter to the Editor
    Citizens for Farm Animal Protection (617) 522-2016 PO Box 470857 [email protected] Brookline, MA 02447 www.citizensforfarmanimals.com Letter to the Editor Guide Thank you for helping spread the word in your community about voting YES! on Question 3 by writing a letter to the editor (LTE)! Other than the front page, the editorial page is the most commonly read page of many newspapers. Therefore, it’s an effective tool for citizens to make their voices heard in a political campaign. LTEs can be used to express your point of view in general or in specific response to a printed letter, editorial, or article. Only a few of the letters to the editor received by a newspaper are actually printed, so every letter we write – and every word within it – needs to count. By staying succinct and on message, using terms everyone understands, you will increase the likelihood of printing. We’re always happy to provide contact information for local papers and to do a quick fact check and proof read on your letter before you submit it. Email [email protected] or call us at (617) 522-2016. Guiding Principles Be prepared and follow the rules. Most papers allow between 150 and 300 words. Shorter letters tend to have a higher chance of being printed and read. Each newspaper has rules regarding submission, for example, some have a form on their website, while others should be sent via email. We can share those specifics with you, just ask! Be timely. A timely response to a specific piece will increase the likelihood that your letter will be published.
