9/11

In a nationwide effort to make it easier to get help if you or someone you know is contemplating suicide, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is implementing a new three-digit number.

I've taken my son Brody to the NYS Museum in Albany at least half-a-dozen times.  Sometimes, I avoid the 9/11 exhibit or pass through it quickly because my son (who turned 4 in July) wants to see animals and funky minerals and dinosaur bones; the fun stuff.  He doesn't want to see his daddy tear up while gazing at the twisted metal and shrapnel that were once steel beams holding up the Twin Towers

Since 9/11, the TSA has made airport security stricter than we've ever seen - for good reason. Now, a few airports are going back to the way things used to be and changing who's allowed through security.

All of us here at GNA are saddened to hear about the loss of a local trooper who honored his commitment to protect and serve, and in the process, sacrificed his own well being.   A former New York State Trooper who helped with search and recovery efforts following 9/11 passed away over the weekend.

I've luckily never had to call 911 but apparently, there's a rumor going around about a secret code thanks to a SuperBowl ad and be careful sharing it, because the code isn't gonna work.

They fight for this country, are on the front lines, and then have to come back to civilian life with sometimes no support whatsoever. I'm happy to see the Capital Region making a step in the right direction.

You're risking a lot when you accept a date through Tinder anyway but this maybe couple from England had no idea that their date would end in a clogged toilet, 911 call and a GoFundMe campaign for a new window.

This 911 call gave me chills this morning.  I can't imagine being in the position this woman is in. She has been captured by a man who has a taser and has trapper her in his bedroom.  He has tied her up and he has made it so she can't even use the bathroom without setting off a trap...

Tomorrow there will be several events in the Capital Region to mark 9/11/01.

This weekend commemorates an anniversary that still sends chills through my spine. It's a day that I think changed a lot of us, especially here in the Capital Region. So close to home, it was inevitable to feel the impact all around us.

My jaw hit the floor when I saw maybe the most offensive commercial I've ever seen for a mattress store.

This is a tough one, because I like Chris Rock a lot, and I realize that he can be "edgy" and controversial, but I really question his content in this Saturday Nite Live monologue.  What say you?
