Gilroy III, Chair Mohawk Valley Regional Economic Development Council 207 Genesee Street, #1604 Utica, NY 13501 Dear Council Representatives, As Mayor of the City of Utica, I recognize the vital importance of our Downtown district to the continued growth and future development of the entire City. The direction, strategies and projects identified in the enclosed New York State Downtown Revitalization Initiative application will guide our efforts to reinvigorate the heart of Utica. The City is poised for significant community transformation centered in economic development and growth. The $10 million Downtown Revitalization Initiative investment would allow government, private business, non-profit organizations and residents to capitalize on these emerging opportunities before us. Our community identified the character and authenticity of Downtown Utica as something to be developed and built upon. By filling vacant storefronts, providing urban living opportunities, enhancing public spaces, supporting business development and highlighting our diversity, we will make Utica a more vibrant, livable and sustainable community. With strong public-private partnerships, I am confident we can create transformative change and unprecedented opportunity, not just for the City of Utica, but for the entire Mohawk Valley Region. I am proud to submit our application for the Downtown Revitalization Initiative and look forward to making this vision for Downtown Utica a reality.

  • MIAMI UNIVERSITY the Graduate School

Gelms As our digital environments—in their inhabitants, communities, and cultures—have evolved, harassment, unfortunately, has become the status quo on the internet (Duggan, 2014 & 2017; Jane, 2014b). Harassment is an issue that disproportionately affects women, particularly women of color (Citron, 2014; Mantilla, 2015), LGBTQIA+ women (Herring et al., 2002; Warzel, 2016), and women who engage in social justice, civil rights, and feminist discourses (Cole, 2015; Davies, 2015; Jane, 2014a). Whitney Phillips (2015) notes that it’s politically significant to pay attention to issues of online harassment because this kind of invective calls “attention to dominant cultural mores” (p. 7). Keeping our finger on the pulse of such attitudes is imperative to understand who is excluded from digital publics and how these exclusions perpetuate racism and sexism to “preserve the internet as a space free of politics and thus free of challenge to white masculine heterosexual hegemony” (Higgin, 2013, n.p.). While rhetoric and writing as a field has a long history of examining myriad exclusionary practices that occur in public discourses, we still have much work to do in understanding how online harassment, particularly that which is gendered, manifests in digital publics and to what rhetorical effect.

Introduction: The Talk Show concept is a modern mass media phenomenon. The Oprah and Dr Phil show are aired in countries all over the world. People seem to have a huge interest in other people’s lives and there seem to be an amazingly endless line of topics to talk about. Celebrities, placed in a fake comfort zone that they can’t escape, are forced to talk about their personal business. People just like you and me are willing to tell all about their problems on a TV- show that is aired to millions of people. I can’t let go of my contradictory feelings concerning talk shows – I am fascinated but at the same time scared about how a person can make a total stranger feel so comfortable in front of millions of people.

    1 2018 State of the County Message Oneida County Executive Anthony J. Picente Jr. Thank you to Danielle’s and its staff for the fine job they’ve done in hosting this event. I would like to start by acknowledging my partners in government. First and foremost, I want to recognize the unbelievable commitment and dedication of all our county government workers. They carry out our mission with professionalism and skill every single day. They are the best government workforce in the state. I want to thank the members of the Oneida County Board of Legislators for their service and dialogue, especially the Board Chairman Gerald Fiorini. I want to thank my department heads who implement the vision we outline through programs and services that meet the needs of our people. I want to thank Sheriff Robert Maciol, District Attorney Scott McNamara, County Clerk Sandy DePerno and Comptroller Joseph Timpano.

I want to thank my wife Eleanor and my sisters and nieces who are here with me today for their constant support and encouragement. I stand before you now for the twelfth time. In each address I have told you why county government is relevant and vital to everyone who lives, works and plays here. I have also thrown out some big ideas. Some have worked or are being worked on. Others have not succeeded, but got people talking and thinking. And that’s a good thing. Today as we meet we face challenges and difficult issues as a nation, state and a community.
