Church Charity
The Catholic Church has opened three more temporary clinics in the downtown core to help the homeless deal with the cold. These clinics have been treating illness and providing sleeping bags and warm clothes.

Computer Glitch
United Health Services had a minor computer glitch yesterday that prevented blood collection. However, the company has assured the press that everything is now fine.

Red Cross Break-in
Three nights ago someone stole the blood donation records of the Red Cross from their records storage facility. Representatives of several special interest groups have expressed fears that the information could be used to persecute those with AIDS or other disorders.

Spring Festival
The media is anticipating a large press conference to be held this week for the spring festival "From The Ground Up". Public support for the festival has been overwhelming.

Takeover Foiled
The hostile takeover bid of Chemco Chemicals was unsuccessful. A third party bought enough shares to prevent the original bidder from gaining a controlling majority.

Staff Psychic
The Toronto Sun announced that it will have a new column entitled "Predictions". Their new staff psychic, who promotes herself by saying "the only thing I can't predict is my own death", is the laughing stock of the newspaper industry.

Cop Cover-up
Two cops arrested during the recent crackdown on police corruption have offered to talk to the press about a department cover-up involving the deaths of three men.

Crime Protests
The Coalition for Public Morality has been organizing protests all over the city in order to force the government to take a harder stance on crime in Toronto.

Truck Hijackings
Two more trucks have been hijacked in the city. One truck had several hundred thousand dollars of high end computer equipment while the other contained construction supplies.

Safe Streets
Violence on the streets appears to have dried up. It's as if the criminals all woke up Sunday morning and decided to change their profession.

Bank Virus
All Royal Bank ATM machines were shut down the entire weekend as a result of a computer virus. The bank has credited all of its ATM users their ATM service charges for the month of December.

Paranormal Studies
The Paranormal Studies program at the University of Toronto had it's first class yesterday evening entitled "Ghosts".

Toronto Toreador
The Toreador of Toronto have impressed their elders with their commitment to the arts. They are especially taken with the plans for the upcoming spring festival.

Briant's Turkey
Some Kindred are questioning what Lord Timothy Briant could have done to cause such a scandal. Ventrue Elders in Europe are surprised by the news that he has been stripped of status by the Harpy of Toronto. One of them was overheard in a salon saying that Mr. Briant had better get his turkey back.

Archons Absent
The Tremere Archons that were present in the city of Toronto have apparently completed their duties and been reassigned. The Anarchs must no longer be a threat.
