Adele’s Rolling in the “25”

  • imagePerhaps now Adele remembers how it feels to have the world fall at her feet again, because it surely appears to have been that way for her these last couple of weeks with her new album “25” making history upon its second week of being released.
    In its first week, “25” sold 2.3 million copies, surpassing *NSYNC’s American record and Hikaru.
    Billboard is reporting that Adele’s new album will sell another million copies through the duration of its second week of being released.
    “25” is the first album to to sell that many U.S. copies over the course of two weeks in the SoundScan era.

Selling the City of Utica for Whatever You’re Willing to Pay

Selling the City of Utica for Whatever You’re Willing to Pay

Here’s the first few lines from our wiki entry:

“Utica is a city in the Mohawk Valley and the county seat of Oneida County, New York, United States. The tenth-most-populous city in New York, its population was 62,235 in the 2010 U.S. census. Located on the Mohawk River at the foot of the Adirondack Mountains, Utica is approximately 90 miles (145 km) northwest of Albany and 45 miles (72 km) east of Syracuse. Although Utica and the neighboring city of Rome have their own metropolitan area, both cities are also represented and influenced by the commercial, educational and cultural characteristics of the Capital District and Syracuse metropolitan areas”.

Sounds freaking awesome, right?

With this city you’ll have access to our old ass, yet historic and beautiful Stanley theater, cirque 1928. We have our own Broadway, YO! 

 

     We have Rainbow, the city’s favorite musician. Who needs Spotify when you have the acoustic magic that he provides. PAY ATTENTION TO HIS MAGIC!

    Our colleges are top knotch! We’re so liberal, that we don’t even practice math (screw you math) and that’s why 0000.5% of the school’s student population gets to pretend speak for the entire community. IT’S CALLED THE MOVEMENT GUYS!

 Lastly, we have a downtown that promises to always be in construction and offering detours when you need them the most. 10+ years of tearing up roads and you can’t tell the difference? That’s okay! Neither can anyone else.

 

Don’t get us wrong though, we love our city and all its flaws. Maybe it’s not for sale.

My name’s Lia Tobin. I’m a senior at Utica College, studying journalism with a concentration in broadcast. This is my second year being the copy editor for my school’s newspaper The Tangerine. I am from Fairport, New York, which is a couple hours away from my college. After graduating from Utica College, I’d love to land a job as a TV reporter or as a fashion editor for a high-end magazine such as Marie Claire, Elle, or Vogue. I’d be happy with either job. I’ll be covering this site’s Events page.
