On Monday evening, November 20, the Board of Trustees work session will, for the second time since August, discuss the future of Gouveia Park, located off of Albany Post Road. The timing is ironic, since November 25 will mark ten years since the Board accepted the gift of land and a house from the late Laurel Gouveia, who, together with her husband John Gouveia, had owned the property since 1984. The conditions of the donation, which were spelled out in Laurel Gouveia’s will, specified that the property was to belong to Croton for public use as a park, and that it could not be sold.  READ MORE HERE.

"These findings prove that the Hamas terrorist organization used the Shifa Hospital complex on the day of the massacre as terrorist infrastructure."

Opinion by Allysia Finley • 1hT

The U.S. was in a fit of Covid panic during Thanksgiving week two years ago. The Omicron variant had emerged like a creature from the Black Lagoon. Public-health officials indicated we’d need another updated booster. Share prices in Pfizer and Moderna surged.

By month’s end, Pfizer’s stock-market value had surpassed $300 billion, up 50% from the start of the pandemic. Moderna’s shares had soared by more than 1,000% over the same period.
