Catholic Charities appeal raises
$10.4-Million for Western New York needy but short of goal. The "Drive that
never fails" failed to reach its goal of $10.9-million by the deadline of Sunday,
April 9th. Church officials led by Bishop Edward U. Kmiec, say the drive will go
into "overtime" in an attempt to raise near a half-million more dollars.

Woman claiming to act for God arrested after Starpoint School incident. A 50-year old mother reportedly entered Starpoint Central School , Tuesday, April 4th where sources say she attempted to act out a "miracle cure" of a wheel-chair bound student. The Intermediate School student was reportedly forced out of her wheel chair and told to "Walk through the Lord." The victim, a girl suffering from cerebral palsy, was unable to do that and after staff intervened, the mother fled the scene. She was later arrested at her South Transit Road trailer park home and charged with 3rd-degree criminal trespass, endangering the welfare of a physically disabled person, and 2nd-degree harassment.
