GUILDERLAND — Jason Wells from Guilderland, assigned to the Joint Force Headquarters of the New York National Guard, received a promotion to the rank of sergeant first class.

Army National Guard promotions are based on overall performance, attitude, leadership ability, and development potential.

GUILDERLAND — Denny J. Empie, a star Guilderland High School athlete, went on to be a teacher and coach. He was a devoted son to his mother who lived to be over 100, and a born-again Christian who started the Jesus Soda Survey.

The 17-year-old was out on $15,000 bail in a rape case when he allegedly waved the gun around during a Vape-cigarette buy in the mall parking lot.

Police say Sellie failed to return jewelry to customers or to compensate them.

The vast majority of production cases involve people, he said, who are able to convince kids whom they have never met in person to take their clothes off for them.

Taxpayers in all four towns within the Guilderland school district will pay less on taxes per $1,000 of assessed valuation than last year. The biggest difference — a decrease of 28.20% — will be in the town of Guilderland.

People want to move to Guilderland, said developer Francis McCloskey, and he wants to be involved only in responsible development projects. Current town residents should avoid putting up “imaginary walls” to keep new residents out, he said.
