New York State Attorney General Eric Schneiderman will be sending letters to the nation's leading wireless providers to approve a new anti-theft app.

Hackett Middle School is currently on lockdown after Albany Police received a call around 7:45 a.m. reporting a person carrying a weapon on Delaware Avenue, which is near the school.

So, how many cops does it take to make a man rollover on his stomach? You would think that one maybe two would suffice? Think again! In this case, police batons, tazers, and a half dozen cops can't seem to motivate Porfirio Santos-Lopez to simply rollover and take orders from cops in Long Beach, California.

Albany is called a lot of things from "SmAlbany" to some other unflattering comments that I can't retype here, but one thing you might not think to call us is unfriendly.

There are many-a posts on Craigslist that instantly make me think 'this person has literally just trolled the internet'. For the most part, you can see it coming a mile away.  But this one? I'm not sure.

Wow, Albany area Craigslist's Casual Encounters has been somewhat nil the last few days. I mean come on, aren't super attractive large breasted sex freaks looking for a random stranger to 'take them out to the ball game' or are we going soft? Pun intended all day!

Wednesday is here! Mid-week if ya will: It's Hump Day! You know, middle of the week get over the hump and all that jazz? So you know, I'm gonna spin this in a pure sexual way. I mean come on, I'm a dude and why the hell not? On to the Albany Area 'Casual Encounter' section of Craigslist...

We had an awesome weekend didn't we? Mid 60's on Saturday, with temps in the 70's yesterday. What did you do? I'm assuming a ton of people were at Thacher Park, walking trails, enjoying the scenery and hopefully staying out of trouble?

When I saw the titles for this series of vids,  I have to admit, I was like 'oh great more cops on tape not being nice'. To the tell you the truth, I'm thinking these dudes might want to take a minute and think about the message their trying to send.

Recently Albany became under fire from a radio executive in Portland.

I have to tell ya, Monday was a rough day. The Boston Marathon bombings were front and center. We were all clued to the tube, weren't we? When something like that happens one tends to forget about local news and focus on this major news event that's literally happening three hours away. Reel it back in for a second.

Step aside Jay-Z, Albany is on the map- Neeeeewwwww Yooorrrrkkkkk!!!! Yep, we finally have an official music video and let me tell you- It's ill! Sick with it, if you will. Who needs quick cuts of the Empire State Building when you can watch a Sysco truck zoom down Washington Ave? Seriously, Albany has made it.
