Such efforts represent a high commitment to community, demonstrating how civic action has helped make Bellingham a community valued by those who live here and admired by those who don’t. We are confident that your good efforts will yield proposed changes to your neighborhood’s plan which represent the values and priorities of your neighborhood but at the same time are consistent with the City’s Comprehensive Plan. Thank you in advance for this work. The anticipated outcome of this process is for participating neighborhood associations to file proposed plan amendments with the City’s Planning and Community Development Department on or before December 1, 2007. The Planning Director will initiate (recommend for docketing by the City Council) those proposals that: a.

December 2017), who served as a volunteer on the Steering Committee for many years. Welcome to the 18th Annual Bellingham Human Rights Film Festival When democratic principles and rights are now more threatened, our festival brings together invaluable knowledge and people committed to working together for mutual wellbeing, equity, and world peace. This year we offer 25 films on a wide variety of topics, including environmental activism, health care, indigenous rights in the Americas, prisons, and women's issues. We are happy to have thirteen venues throughout the city and county. Most films at our primary venue, Fairhaven College Auditorium on the campus of Western Washington University, are followed by discussions facilitated by someone involved with making the film or by experts familiar with the issues they cover. Representatives and activists from local organizations are also available as resources for further learning and involvement. The program provides times and locations of films using two formats: by daily schedule, and by title along with all screening locations and times for each film. Note that some films are screened only once, others multiple times.

    A Corpus-Based Case Study of Differences in Meaning and Usage of Two Near-Synonyms

    A corpus-based case study of differences in meaningand usage of two near-synonyms. American awesome vs. British wicked Name: Karin Rasmusson Submitted in partial fulfillment of the C-level English Linguistics option Supervisor: Centre for Language and Literature Lund University A corpus-based case study of differences in meaning and usage of two near-synonyms. American awesome vs. British wicked Karin Rasmusson 1. Introduction “Near-synonymy is the study of semantic relations between lexemes or constructions that possess a similar usage” (Glynn 2010: 2; Lyons 1995:60; Divjak 2006:21). In this study two near-synonyms awesome and wicked are to be looked more closely at. Near-synonyms have similar meanings but they do not mean exactly the same. The aim of the study is to try to locate whether such small differences in meaning and usage of the two lexemes are present, and if they are what these differences might be. The first intention of this essay was to compare the different uses of awesome and wicked in British English and American English using data from personal online diaries. However, there was not enough data of the use of awesome in British English. Personal online diaries will still be the source for the data used in this study, but instead of examining each lexeme in both languages, data for awesome will be collected from American English online diaries, and data for wicked from British English ones. Language changes over time and cultures, meanings of words change with it and are sometimes weakened or lost. According to the Merriam- Webster online dictionary one of the definitions of awesome is: 1.

IT’S A SIN Summerskill and Lyon Book One Steve Burford Dedication For Neil Chapter One Three people walked past him on the canal path that cold November morning before anyone realised something was wrong. The first, a professional man, out early for the morning paper, saw him sitting under the small footbridge that crossed the narrow strip of dark water. He took in the face-concealing hoodie, the flashy and doubtless ridiculously expensive trainers, and kept as far away from him as he possibly could without actually walking on the water itself. The skin on the back of his neck prickled nervously as he walked past the youth, and the Guardian was rolled tight in his fist ready to beat the lad off if he leapt on him from behind. But the slouched figure remained immobile, his back to the bridge’s crumbling brickwork, and the man passed by unscathed, relieved and curiously exhilarated.
