IN THE NEWS: NEW STUDY SHOWS PHYSICAL DIFFERENCES IN TRANSGENDER FEMALE ATHLETES

New study shows physical differences in transgender female athletes....This is the first study to show associated differences in the cardiopulmonary capacity of transgender women. The authors acknowledged that it would be useful to conduct a larger study in the future, one that also follows individuals over time. But it appears the activist narrative that a year or two of hormonal therapy overrides the physical advantages bestowed by male puberty is not true. Surely, we did not require a scientific study to convince most rational people of this, but here we are, dealing with the consequences of unrelenting activism in 2022.

MIDNIGHT RUN, HOLY NAME OF MARY 11/12

Welcome to The New Everything Croton, a collection of all things Croton--our history, our homes, our issues, our businesses, our schools, our houses of worship--in short, EVERYTHING CROTON.

HOLY NAME OF MARY --THE NEXT MIDNIGHT RUN WILL BE 11/12

Midnight Run Midnightrun.org is a non-profit based in Dobbs Ferry and started in 1984 to help the less fortunate in New York City. They organize visits to NYC on Friday and Saturday nights by charity groups throughout the greater tri-state area. At Holy Name of Mary, we participated in our first “run” in 2008. We bring bag lunches, hot coffee, soup, and clothing to the homeless living on the streets. We spend time and talk with them. They, in turn, share their stories with us. We’re scheduling our next run for this November. To do this, we need volunteers. Teenagers are welcome. A typical run needs three SUVs, 5 adults and 5 teenagers, to drive down to the city. Teens who attend are very moved by their experiences. How you can help: Direct money donations made out to Holy Name of Mary to the attention of Midnight Run. The donations will be used to purchase clothing and food to hand out to the homeless. Please contribute lightly used winter coats, blankets, men’s comfortable shoes sizes 10- 13, blue jeans, sweatshirts, hoodies. We’re also asking for new underwear, socks, undershirts (medium and large sizes), individual travel size toiletries; including toothbrushes, toothpaste, deodorant, and disposable razors. Clothing donations can be left on my front porch at 12 Franklin Ave. We are also seeking volunteers to help make sandwiches and bake desserts. We’re always in need of more volunteers with our next run on 11/12.  Please contact Davidadler@optonline.net or 914-806- 7419 if you would like to help stage a run or go down to NYC to hand out clothing and food.

NEW FROM ETHICS ALARMS: INCOMPETENT ELECTED OFFICIAL OF THE MONTH, VIRGINIA DELEGATE ELIZABETH GUZMAN

The latest from one of our favorite blogs: ETHICS ALARMS...Incompetent Elected Official Of The Month: Virginia Delegate Elizabeth Guzman (D)

It will be difficult to choose the most trans-propaganda-deranged progressive Democrat before The Great Stupid runs its wacky course, but Elizabeth Guzman will have to be in the finals. She is introducing a bill in the Virginia legislature based on the crackers theory that parents and guardians failing to support the gender identity declared by a minor child is child abuse and a crime. Brilliant!

Yes, it’s come to this. How many Democratic voters are that far gone? I’m almost afraid to ask.

The woman is, in technical terms, nuts. She wants it to be an arrestable offense for parents to tell children, “No, you are not a different sex than what your external organs suggest, but if you still feel this way after you are old enough to know your ass from your elbow.......Read more at
