A city is a large and permanent human settlement. Although there is no agreement on how a city is distinguished from a town in general English language meanings, many cities have a particular administrative, legal, or historical status based on local law.
Cities generally have complex systems for sanitation, utilities, land usage, housing, and transportation. The concentration of development greatly facilitates interaction between people and businesses, benefiting both parties in the process, but it also presents challenges to managing urban growth.
A big city or metropolis usually has associated suburbs and exurbs. Such cities are usually associated with metropolitan areas and urban areas, creating numerous business commuters traveling to urban centers for employment. Once a city expands far enough to reach another city, this region can be deemed a conurbation or megalopolis. In terms of population, the largest city proper is Shanghai, while the fastest-growing is Dubai.
There is not enough evidence to assert what conditions gave rise to the first cities. Some theorists have speculated on what they consider suitable pre-conditions and basic mechanisms that might have been important driving forces.
Roger Donaldson (born 15 November 1945) is an Australian-born New Zealand film director, producer and writer whose films include acclaimed 1981 relationship drama Smash Palace and a run of titles shot in the United States, including Kevin Costner starrers No Way Out and Thirteen Days, and 1997 disaster movie Dante's Peak.
Donaldson was born in Ballarat, Victoria, Australia and in 1965 emigrated to New Zealand, where he established a small still photography business and began making commercials. Donaldson was also directing documentaries, including an adventure series featuring Everest-conquering New Zealander Edmund Hillary, and his first ventures into drama. Donaldson and actor/director Ian Mune collaborated on a number of projects for television, including anthology series Winners and Losers, based on short stories by New Zealand authors.
In 1976 Donaldson directed and produced his first feature Sleeping Dogs. The film starred Mune and Sam Neill as two men fighting for their lives in a totalitarian New Zealand. He followed it with Smash Palace, starring Bruno Lawrence as a man who kidnaps his daughter after his marriage disintegrates.
A city is generally an urban settlement with a large population.
City or Cities may also refer to:
Capitol Station is a Caltrain station located in San Jose, California. This station is only served during peak commute hours. Northbound trains only travel in the morning commute and southbound trains only travel in the evening commute.
Capitol Station is located across from the intersection of Monterey Highway(CA 82) and Fehren Drive. The station parking lot is on the northeast corner of Monterey Highway and Fehren Drive and a pedestrian crosswalk spans from the parking lot to the station.
The Hunger Games universe is a fictional world appearing in The Hunger Games trilogy written by Suzanne Collins.
The series takes place at an unspecified point in the future. By this time, the nation of Panem rules North America in place of the governments of Canada, the United States, and Mexico, which failed to survive.
Panem's seat of power is a superficially utopian city called the Capitol located in the Rocky Mountains. Outside of the Capitol, the nation is divided into twelve districts under the hegemony of a totalitarian dictatorship, headed by the tyrannical President Coriolanus Snow. A thirteenth district had existed but was destroyed by the Capitol seventy-five years prior to the beginning of The Hunger Games during a period known as the Dark Days. In Mockingjay, it is revealed that District 13 retreated underground after the Dark Days. This was the main source of the rebellion that happened in Catching Fire and Mockingjay. The Capitol developed the Hunger Games as an annual event to punish the citizens of Panem for their rebellion and to remind citizens of consequences for rebelling against the absolute power of the Capitol. The country of Panem, though occupying the whole of North America, isn't as big as the current North America.
Capitol is a light rail station operated by Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). This station is served by VTA's Alum Rock–Santa Teresa line. If and when light rail is extended down the median of the Capitol Expressway from Alum Rock in what is known as the Downtown East Valley transit project, the new line will terminate around Capitol station, or possibly share tracks of the current station.
Capitol station is located in the median of State Route 87, near the intersection with Capitol Expressway in San Jose, California.

I could lift you up
I could show you what you want to see
And take you where you want to be
You could be my luck
Even if the sky is falling down
I know that we'll be safe and sound
We're safe and sound
I could fill your cup
You know my river won't evaporate
This world we still appreciate
You could be my luck
Even in a hurricane of frowns
I know that we'll be safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
We're safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
We're safe and sound
(Hold your ground)
We're safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
I could show you love
In a tidal wave of mystery
You'll still be standing next to me
You could be my luck
Even if we're six feet underground
I know that we'll be safe and sound
We're safe and sound
Safe and sound
Safe and sound
Hold your ground
Safe and sound
I could lift you up
I could show you what you want to see
And take you where you want to be
You could be my luck
Even if the sky is falling down
I know that we'll be safe and sound
I could lift you up
I could show you what you want to see
And take you where you want to be
You could be my luck
Even if the sky is falling down
I know that we'll be safe and sound
We're safe and sound
We're safe and sound
We're safe and sound
We're safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
We're safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
We're safe and sound
(Hold your ground)
We're safe and sound
(Safe and sound)
