local

We are so used to hearing different things about our local schools and communities that we don't even think that our very own could be some of the best around. I'm not just talking locally either, I'm talking nationally.

No injuries, no leaks, no spills - you could call it a miracle after 11 freight cars derail in Selkirk Saturday.

I've been playing softball since I was the tiny age of just 6 years old. Mom tried to get me to do ballet, it lasted about as long as a 6 inch sub on a lunch break. Sorry, Mom.

It's been a hot, HOT summer and that's not just because of the temperatures!

First Girl Scouts made my week - or at least I thought that they did with the announcement Thursday of not one, but two S'mores based cookies coming to their line in 2017. Now, Hostess really is being the hostess with the mostest (see what I did there?) and bringing deep fried twinkies to the freezer aisle!

If this isn't a reason to not allow strangers into your home, I don't know what is. All the research in the world probably couldn't have seen this coming but it turns out

Albany had budgeted $1.9 million in its revenue with traffic light camera violators in 2016, but guess what - Albany's not seeing a dime! So who is?

Newkirk Products, a company based out of Albany has learned that someone accessed their system back in May which contains member information. This could affect you and up to 600,000 locally within the Capital Region.

A life-sized, bronze statue of a gorilla that weighs an estimated 600 lbs. was missing from a garden in Slingerlands. You might be thinking, what was it doing there in the first place?! Well, owner Judith Bovitz purchased it to recognize the endangered mountain gorillas in Rowanda about 12 years ago.

On July 26th, the final American Idol, Trent Harmon stopped by the GNA studios on his promotional tour. I knew this a couple days in advance and of course needed to make sure my American Idol loving Nana was able to get here to meet her "boyfriend!" ...No, seriously, she calls him that.

It's taken months to plan, but the time is almost here for the very first Tattoo Convention in Upstate New York!

If a tree limb falls into a street when no one is around, does it make a sound? I mean, honestly it doesn't even matter because in this case people were around and could have been severely injured if not worse if a local mailman wasn't there to save the day!
