New York technology firm plans to sue Google

A small New York technology firm said Friday it was planning to sue the world top search titan Google Inc for up to 5 bln usd for patent violation in the Internet telephony software used in Google Talk.

Jerry Weinberger, chief executive of Rates Technology Inc (RTI) claimed that he, was the inventor of software programming that allows telephone calls to be placed over the Internet.

He said 120 companies, including Lucent, Cisco, IBM, Yahoo and Microsoft, have paid RTI to use the technology for Voice over Internet Protocol (VoIP) calls.

RTI filed suit in a Long Island federal court against Google two months ago because the search engine was using the technology without authorization, Weinberger said after the New York Post reported the lawsuit Friday.

Weinberger alleged that Google has abused two patented RTI software programs in Google Talk, which enables users to talk through a computer headset or to instant message each other for free.

He said Google could be liable for damages of up to 5 bln usd in a trial, unless it settles the complaint out of court.

Google spokesman Steve Langdon responded dismissively. 'We believe the lawsuit is without merit and we will defend against it vigorously,' he said. newsdesk@afxnews.com

Best friends with a taste for business and the good life

WHEN James Packer first met his London business partner, Damian Aspinall, the two men knew of each other only through their fathers, who were friends.

Both fathers were larger than life, superbly wealthy tycoons with a voracious taste for chance; Packer senior was notorious in London for his aggressive style and casino boss John Aspinall's collection of exotic animals (he raised Damian in the company of silverback gorillas) had made him a national figure of fascination.

Both sons, therefore, were persons of intense interest to London society in the early 1990s, when they reached manhood.

"We met at a dinner in London to welcome the new boy," was Damian Aspinall's subsequent recollection of their introduction.

"An English twat who had never met Jamie before said, 'I would like to propose a toast to Jamie, not because of who you are and how much you've got, but because you are a true friend'," he recalls. Everyone else around the table rose except Aspinall, who has inherited his now-deceased father's bluntness.

"I am not your friend," he declared. "I have never met you. I only came here because of who you are, what you've got and how much I can get out of you."

Packer junior's response was to grasp Aspinall's hand, telling him he was "the only genuine one here".

A profitable friendship was born and now the pair are poised to open a string of high-end casinos across Britain, taking advantage of the British Government's recent decision to license a new generation of gaming houses.

The Packer behemoth Consolidated Press Holdings co-owns with Aspinall the fledgling casino company Aspers, which has just opened a lush new casino at Newcastle
Damian Aspinall, now 45, did badly at school and was handed an air ticket to Australia at the age of 16, but built his own empire without help from his father and had made his first million in property dealing before the age of 30.

In James Packer, he recognised another product of stern fathering.
"Jamie is my best friend,' said Aspinall in 2000, in a rare interview upon the death of his father.
"(He's) the only son of that lot that I am close to. I have met so many sons like that and they are useless."

That's not to say that life for the junior tycoons has been all work and no play.
During the 1990s, James was a regular visitor to London and his dalliances included one with Sylvester Stallone's girlfriend Jennifer Flavin.

Damian's girlfriends included Naomi Campbell and the glamorous Petrina Khashoggi.
In 1999, Damian was best man at James Packer's wedding to Jodie Meares.
Oddly enough, his date to that event was Erica Baxter, now a fixture at James's side.

Medicare will drive health sector in 06

The new Medicare Part D prescription-drug benefit will be a major driver of the health-insurance sector in 2006, market analysts predicted, and certain health plans are already emerging as the front runners.

'I think Wall Street has been excited about the potential for the Medicare benefit, and the new members who will be booked into these plans (through) health maintenance organizations (HMOs) and preferred provider organizations (PPOs), but also, of course, the (Medicare Part D plan, Jane DuBose, a managed care market analyst with Nashville-based Health Leaders-InterStudy, told United Press International.

'I think the potential will be realized for some companies, but for others. it will not. I think the market will begin to reflect the winners and losers,' she said.

In fact, according to DuBose, the difference between the clear winners and the also-rans, as with most business sectors, boils down to strategic alliances, getting the brand into consumers` consciousness, and location, location, location.

'I think United Health Group will clearly do well because they have this partnership with (American Association of Retired Persons) and that`s a name that seniors trust,' DuBose said.
'Humana will do well because they`ve been the most aggressive at marketing, and they have partnered with Walmart,' she added.

'I`ve seen statistics about the number of seniors who actually walk into a Walmart. Humana has had on site real people to answer questions.
I think that`s going to be a good strategy, so they`ve really blanketed in terms of marketing,' she said.
In addition, Humana has entered into numerous new PPOs across the country that will further increase the health-insurance giant`s exposure, DuBose noted.

Also, WellPoint -- expected to merge in 2006 with WellChoice -- is most likely to cash in on Medicare`s Part D in the nation`s heartland, she predicted. 'WellPoint has very strong presence in the Midwest,' DuBose said.

On the other hand, she predicted 'a toss up whether Aetna, Signa and Pacificare will be able to get their share' in this emerging market.

Although there are 10 or 11 national (health insurance) carriers, DuBose pointed out, 'in some states, you just don`t see marketing from some of these vendors. Pharmaceutical benefit management organizations (PBMs) like Medco Health Solutions and Caremark, for example, just don`t get into the (consumer) consciousness as much as these health plans in terms of marketing, so I`m not sure they`ll do as well as some of the health plans,' she said.

Medicare`s new program, which takes effect Jan. 1, will also unveil another first-of-its kind plan, the Medicare PPO -- and another potential cash cow for the major health-insurance players, DuBose added.

'The interesting thing about the (Medicare) PPO is, this is the first time that seniors all over the country, rural areas and urban, are going to have access to these (plans). In the past, it was only financially feasible for these health plans to offer the plans in urban markets,' she noted.
So which health insurer is most likely to benefit? 'Humana, big time,' DuBose predicted.

'They`re staking more than any other health plan on the acceptance of the Medicare PPO concept. The question is whether seniors want to do it, but if anybody gets uptake, it would be (Humana) because they simply have gone into more regions than anybody else in the country,' she said.

WellPoint, with its high Midwest profile, is also banking on the Medicare PPO, launching regional PPOs in Ohio, Kentucky and Indiana, she said. Other potential PPO winners include certain Blue Cross plans, DuBose added.

'Blue Cross of South Carolina, which is sort of a quiet giant that is not publicly held, is going to do the regional PPO concept in South Carolina and Georgia,' she said.
Charles Boorady, a managed-care-industry analyst with Citigroup, agreed that Medicare`s prescription-drug benefit will be a primary market mover in 2006.

'The summit ahead would be the largest expansion of Medicare since its inception and the largest privatization in our history: that of Medicare recipients (transitioning) into private health plans,' Boorady said in a note issued earlier this week.

Alcohol causing child health problems

RECORD numbers of British children were treated in hospital last year with alcohol-related problems, The Daily Telegraph reported today, quoting figures from the Liberal Democrats opposition party.Some 4, 09 children were admitted to accident and emergency units for the effects of drinking alcohol in 2004-05, a rise of 15 per cent since Prime Minister Tony Blair's Labour party came to power in 1997.

The illnesses included cirrhosis, mental behaviour disorders and the toxic effects of drinking when young, the newspaper said.

The Department of Health figures also showed a rise in the number of adults admitted to hospital for drink-related conditions, up 30 per cent from 35,740 in 1996-97 to 46,299 in 2004-05.

The Times said the Government was looking to get tough with unscrupulous retailers who sold alcohol illegally to under-18s and that binge-drinking among under-age youngsters could reach record levels over the new year weekend.

One of the arguments for relaxing the licensing laws was that it would allow more civilised socialising.

But opponents argued that because of Britain's hard-drinking reputation, it would merely increase alcohol abuse, drink-fuelled violence and anti-social behaviour.

Business dispute suspected in Russia gas attack

A gas attack in a home-supply store on one of the busiest shopping days of the year sickened scores of people yesterday in an incident that police called likely motivated by a commercial dispute or blackmail attempt.

Boxes containing timers wired to glass vials were discovered at the attack scene and three other stores in the same chain in Russia's second-largest city.

Seventy-eight people sought medical care: 66 were briefly hospitalized and sent home, officials said. Police said the store where the people were sickened hadn't opened for the day and all those affected were employees or police, ITAR-Tass news agency reported.

Officials with the Maksidom home-supply chain, which sells furnishings, home-repair material and other domestic articles, said they had received recent threats that sales would be disrupted around New Year's, when Russians traditionally give holiday gifts.

Most efforts to undermine competitors' sales in Russia's sharp-elbowed free market take the form of negative advertising or damaging rumours. Business-related violence nonetheless remains a feature of the cutthroat capitalism that enveloped Russia following the 1991 collapse of the Soviet Union.

"The first reaction is that it is one of the competitors of this store chain," St. Petersburg Governor Valentina Matviyenko said in televised comments.

St. Petersburg police spokesman Vyacheslav Stepchenko said the gas appeared to be methyl mercaptan, which smells like rotten cabbage and is both naturally occurring and manufactured for use in plastics and pesticides. It rarely has long-lasting effects.

Employees at the branch where people were sickened said they heard a noise like a clap or pop before people smelled a garlicky odour and began to feel ill. Police called to the scene found a mechanism with a timer attached to shattered ampoules, and patients complained of nausea and vomiting, Stepchenko said.

He said a custodian at another branch discovered a suspicious box before opening time and found ampoules attached to wires and a timer inside. The woman inadvertently broke one of the ampoules and noticed a repulsive smell but was not sickened, he said.
Boxes with glass containers attached to timers were found in two other stores by employees who carried them outside and covered them with buckets; police explosives experts defused them, Stepchenko said.

Current Technology Expands Scope of Strategic Laser & MedSpa Negotiations

Current Technology has expanded significantly the scope of its negotiations with Jaseon Olcese, President and Chief Executive Officer of Strategic Laser & MedSpa, LLC ("Strategic Laser").

Rather than a focus on developing a relationship with one or more specific customers, the objective is to rollout Current Technology's proprietary CTG (CosmeticTrichoGenesis) Mark 5 in the United States nationwide on a revenue sharing basis to selected salons and spas.

"Revenue sharing is the optimal approach to maximize shareholder value," states CEO Robert Kramer, "as it has the potential to significantly increase the amount of revenue the company may earn from a particular unit."

Historically, revenue in the United States has been generated primarily from a combination of the sale of units to distributors and the Technology Use Fees ("TUF" or royalty) charged on each use. Although the TUF may vary, it typically represents 5% to 10% of the ultimate retail price charged to the end user.

The financial model being negotiated with Jason Olcese would involve the sale at cost by Current Technology of CTG Mark 5s to Strategic Laser. In turn, Strategic Laser would place the units in high traffic salon and spa locations throughout the United States. Current Technology would earn a TUF of 30% of the price charged to the customer.

"We are in the process of developing the plan for the necessary infrastructure to successfully launch into the US market," states Strategic Laser's Jason Olcese. "I have shared my vision with Current Technology's executives for the national launch into the US market and we are in the process of finalizing negotiations to make this vision come to life."

"Jason has the vision, marketing talent and financial ability to achieve our goal of making CTG Mark 5 a 'must have' part of the vibrant beauty and spa industry in the United States," continues Kramer.

In order to achieve the vision of a national roll out on a revenue sharing basis in the United States, certain legacy distribution agreements had to be re-negotiated. To that end Current Technology on December 23, 2005 agreed to issue 1,400,000 restricted common shares as consideration for the termination of all exclusive distribution agreements in the United States. In addition, the pilot distributorship agreement with p6 Inc. announced September 29, 2005 has terminated.

"We are now in a position to move forward throughout the United States," continues Kramer. "We are reviewing various financial models with Jason, based on an initial placement of between 120 and 200 CTG Mark 5 units in prime markets. We are obviously very excited about this opportunity and look forward to the successful conclusion of negotiations and placement of the initial order in early 2006."

ABOUT CURRENT TECHNOLOGY CORPORATION

Current Technology Corporation remains committed to developing its non- invasive pulsed electro-stimulation technology.

Children's health gains are at risk of reversal

It is bitterly ironic that during this season when our newspapers and televisions are filled with touching stories of children with a variety of serious chronic illnesses -- such as cystic fibrosis, diabetes, cancer, autism and sickle cell anemia -- the policies that shape our public commitment to these children have never been at greater risk.

Children with a chronic illness require two things: comprehensive health insurance and access to specialty care. The good news is that a number of counties, led by efforts in Santa Clara County, have implemented programs to provide basic health coverage for all children. The bad news is that the development of county-by-county programs is creating a highly inefficient patchwork quilt of programs with differing eligibility and benefit rules. Moreover, this haphazard approach leaves the long-term funding base for many of these programs unclear.

The second requirement, access to specialty medical care, is the essential component at greater risk. During the 1960s and 1970s, California created regional networks of community providers and specialty hospitals to facilitate referrals and immediate hospitalization for children with complex or critical cases. Coordinated by California Children's Services, a state agency, these networks have had a dramatic impact, resulting in great improvements in children's survival and quality of life. The system is one of the real triumphs of modern child health care.

This success, however, is currently being undermined by a remarkable indifference to the needs of seriously ill children as federal and state governments seek to cut health care spending. In Washington, the recently passed House budget covered the costs associated with Hurricane Katrina by slashing Medicaid funding for the poor and disabled. Beyond its breathtaking cynicism, this step will ultimately hurt our state's ability to address the needs of poor children with serious illness.

At the state level, a variety of proposals are swirling in Sacramento to dramatically alter or abolish our current systems for caring for seriously ill children. Although some are well-intended and seek to make much-needed improvements, most are concerned with cutting costs and are wildly uninformed. A major problem with much of this discussion is that children are being thrown into policy changes that are primarily directed at adults. This is understandable in some measure because the vast bulk of expenditures are generated by adults.

But children are not just small adults. Their patterns of health problems are very different and they are far more vulnerable to even slight interruptions in access to specialty care. This is because serious, urgent illnesses in children are relatively rare. While most health care facilities have the capacity to handle most serious adult cases such as heart attacks and diabetes, they commonly lack experience in dealing with seriously ill children, such as a 6-year-old who has sickle cell anemia with acute chest syndrome, a relatively rare but urgent, life-threatening condition in a child.

The regional referral systems have been set up precisely to address this kind of situation. However, these networks are based on a fragile set of financial structures, and great care will be needed to ensure that revised policies strengthen rather than undermine them.

The issue is not really one of cost. Public expenditures on children's health are minuscule when compared to those spent on adults. Indeed, this is one of the main reasons that children's health issues are being overshadowed by a focus on adult care. The current approach seems to be to worry about the elements of the adult policies now and deal with the child-focused details sometime in the future. The problem is that children with severe disorders live and die in the details.

A recent survey from the Lucile Packard Foundation for Children's Health (``What Bay Area Parents Worry About Most,'' San Jose Mercury News, Oct. 27) pointed up some of the many financial and emotional pressures faced by parents of children with chronic illnesses (see accompanying box). Today, there is a striking opportunity for the governor and the Legislature to provide statewide leadership in support of those families.

First, there can be no excuse for not working with the counties in creating a strong and stable program to insure all children in California. The counties already have done the heavy lifting on this issue; it is time for the state to act. Second, the incoherence in the public debate over the best ways to reform programs for children with chronic illnesses must end.

Our elected leaders must ensure that the enormous capacities and commitment of state health agencies are more purposefully linked to the real-world insights of parents with seriously ill children and health providers who have long cared for these children.

Such a process will best ensure that necessary reforms and cost reductions are constructive and that the quality and coordination of care actually improve.

However, without such a process -- one that respects the special requirements of children -- the successes of the past will be left unprotected, the real opportunities for constructive change will go untouched and, ultimately, our hearts and private charity will be increasingly uncoupled from our collective commitment to health policies that are both effective and just.

Parenting children

with chronic illnesses

Parents of children with chronic illness, compared to parents of children without chronic illness, are:Three times as likely to report that their family income is not enough to provide for their child's basic needs.

Twice as likely to report that their child's level of stress is ``high'' or ``very high''.
Four times as likely to be ``very concerned'' that their child may be depressed.

(BW) NewMarket Technology Inc. Releases Webcast of Shareholder Town Hall

NewMarket Technology Inc. (OTCBB:NMKT) today released a webcast of the Company's Shareholder Town Hall Meeting held last Thursday, December 15th.
The following is a statement from Philip Verges, the CEO and Chairman of NewMarket Technology, encouraging shareholders, investors, and entrepreneurs to view the webcast.

"NewMarket's revenue has grown on average by 40% per quarter over the last two years. At the same time, profit has increased at a normalized rate of 400%. Shareholder equity has also increased by 400% over the last two years.

NewMarket has grown from $2.3 million in revenue in 2003 to $41 million in revenue for the trailing twelve months. The Over the Counter market has been instrumental in facilitating this growth.

Nevertheless, while the Company has been growing exponentially in the last two years, NewMarket's average share price has declined 47%. The webcast explains in detail how a company can grow, while the share price declines. Through NewMarket's own experience, the webcast outlines for all entrepreneurs how to finance a development stage company in the Over the Counter market environment. Demonstrating the overall trading dynamics of the Over the Counter Bulletin Board (OTCBB) Exchange and NewMarket's own historical trading dynamics, the webcast is helpful to OTCBB investors on how to realize healthy investment returns in development stage companies.

The primary message in the webcast is directed to our valued long-term NewMarket shareholders. The Company's intrinsic and enterprise value has grown in the last two years and that value is continuing to build upon the foundation forged during this time. However, the healthy revenue and bottom line growth fundamentals are locked inside an undervalued share price. Companies listed on national exchanges with similar services and similar revenues, but with less profit, are consistently trading at much higher Price to Sales ratios. The challenge for NewMarket is to unlock that value in the market.

Developing companies are less predictable than later stage companies. As the CEO, I have made mistakes in forecasting and prematurely setting high expectations for the future results of our early development stage operations. Even though NewMarket's overall operations have grown exponentially, my highly communicative program to inform shareholders have dampened shareholder's spirits as timelines were extended and some goals were not met (at least not yet).
Some part of the two year average share price decrease has been in reaction to shareholder's concerns from my premature communications regarding less than predictable developing aspects of NewMarket's business. Part of the decrease is due to the nature of the OTCBB market as the average traded share price for all companies listed on the entire OTCBB has decreased 50% over the last two years from $0.19 to $0.09.

The good news is that NewMarket's business value is growing as measured by shareholder's equity, as well as balance sheet, revenue and profitability growth. Now we have to get past the less than stellar communications and get off the OTCBB, so that we can meet the ultimate goal of every public company -- building shareholder value. Although, NewMarket's operations today are far more predictable than in the past, I have graduated from the school of hard knocks regarding overconfident and premature communications.

I encourage shareholders, public market investors and all entrepreneurs to view the webcast on our corporate website at www.newmarkettechnology.com. NewMarket is a case study for investors interested in the Over the Counter market, as well as being a case study for entrepreneurs trying to finance early development stage companies. Most importantly, long-term shareholders should be assured that we at NewMarket are committed to providing an impressive investment return going forward."

GPs deal with 10m mental health visits

Australians made almost 10 million visits to their GPs for mental health problems last financial year, a new report shows.

The Australian Institute of Health and Welfare (AIHW) report also found almost 200,000 Australians were admitted to hospital due to some form of mental illness in 2003-04, the latest period for which figures are available.

The AIHW said mental health problems accounted for almost 11 per cent of all problems managed by GPs last financial year.

"There were about 9.8 million attendances (during 2004/05) in which general practitioners managed mental health problems," the report said.

It said the number of visits to GPs for mental health-related care had been relatively stable since 1999.

In 2003-04, there were almost five million visits to publicly-funded mental health services.
"The care that people with mental health problems receive most often is care in the community from GPs or government-operated health services, rather than from hospitalisations," said Jenny Hargreaves, head of AIHW's hospitals and mental health services unit.

She said men sought assistance more often for mental health problems than women.
"There were 256 service contacts per 1,000 people for men, compared with 226 for women," Ms Hargreaves said.

But she said that was not surprising given that one of the more common conditions treated in government-funded mental health care was schizophrenia, which is more common in men.

Between 1999-2004 the number of mental health-related admissions to hospitals increased at an average annual rate of just over two per cent to 197,712 for that year, the report said.

Schizophrenia accounted for the highest number of hospital admissions with specialised psychiatric care at 19 per cent, followed by a depressive episode at 16 per cent.

The report found that for patients who did not receive specialised psychiatric care while in hospital, the most common diagnosis was mental and behavioural disorders due to alcohol use at 17 per cent.

For patients whose hospital visit involved specialised psychiatric care, the number of admissions was highest for those living in major cities and lowest for those in remote areas.
The opposite was true for patients who did not receive specialised psychiatric care while in hospital.

The AIHW said there were 14 psychiatrists per 100,000 people in Australia in 2003.
However, remote areas had only 2.5 psychiatrists per 100,000 people, compared to 18.5 in major cities.

The report also said there were more than 12,800 mental health nurses per 100,000 people in that year.

Business owners look to revitalize Canmore

Business owners in Canmore are working on a plan to revitalize their downtown area.
Despite $130 million worth of commercial development in the past decade, about ten per cent of downtown commercial space is sitting empty.

Business owner Greg Bury worries the empty shops will scare off customers who might think the town is having economic troubles.

"I think this town is full right now in terms of what the marketplace wants," Bury told CBC News. "And for us to continue to just throw stores out there – like throwing a dart on a dart board and hoping that something good happens is a very scary business proposition."

Leah Kendal, one of the area's largest property developers, says he has about 13 vacant stores downtown.

He says development outside the town centre has significantly hurt the town's retail core, while others blame high rents for the vacancies.

To fight the problem, a group of the town's concerned business owners have formed what they call a business revitalization zone.

Sean Meggs, a local business owner and chair of the new group, says store owners have been struggling for more than a decade to get the municipal government to commit to redeveloping the downtown.

Meggs says the revitalization group is working on its own plan.
The plan includes aesthetic work like burying overhead wires, installing new lighting and benches as well as improving traffic flow. The costs would be split between business owners and the town.

"We're talking about working out a formula with the town as to a reasonable split as to what businesses would pay and what the town would pay," Meggs says.

Canmore Mayor Ron Casey says no amount of redesign will fix the problem. He says Canmore is simply overdeveloped commercially and until tourism rebounds to what it was before Sept. 11, there won't be enough demand to fill the vacancies.
Town council would still have to approve the plan that could cost the town as much as $8 million.

Microsoft reveals more Vista technology

"We are on a path to be code-complete by the end of 2005," said Shanen Boettcher, Microsoft senior director in the company's Windows client group. A code-complete CTP is expected in early 2006, with the general release version of Vista set for the second half of next year.

With the December CTP, Windows AntiSpyware has been renamed Windows Defender. It features improved detection and removal of spyware and malware as well as a redesigned user interface, Boettcher said. Microsoft describes the anti-spyware offering in the December CTP as a functioning early preview of what will be in the final version.

Also offered in the CTP is BitLocker Drive Encryption, formerly known as full-volume encryption. It provides hardware-based data protection to address the issue of data being accessed from lost or stolen machines. The entire Windows system volume is encrypted to prevent unauthorised access.

Users of the new CTP can apply Group Policy to block installation of removable storage drives. "This has been a big concern for folks in terms of data leakage," Boettcher said.

Internet Explorer gets support for international domain names as well as protection from spoofing of these domain names. Advancements in firewall software include bi-directional filtering. Rules set in the Windows Service Hardening platform are enforced to limit the file, registry, and network access. Advanced IPSec is offered, integrated into a single management console with firewall management.

To improve performance and mobility, a single button is being used as an on/off control while a Windows SuperFetch algorithm caches items used most frequently. USB Flash drive can be used to provide additional memory employed by SuperFetch.

The new user interface in build 5270 features improvements in design elements and some consumer-oriented features. The December CTP includes Windows Media Player 11, featuring improvements to the look and feel.

An early version of Aero is highlighted, as well. Aero encompasses a new design philosophy that includes a translucent "glass" appearance of open windows as well as smoother transitions between windows. A re-designed start menu also is part of Aero.
One analyst described the December CTP as a progression toward the final version.

Recognize mental health needs

With regard to the recent spate of murders, I would like to point out that, unfortunately, our health care system does not value mental health care services.

Mental health issues are treated disparately by insurance companies, as most will only pay 50 percent of the charges and one is generally subject to a process of pre-certification before one is allowed to obtain services, along with any deductibles and co-pays, and with limitations on the number of visits available.

Throw in the additional costs for medications (not inexpensive and frequently changed to new ones) and regular follow-ups and one will find that the average individual is unable to afford to obtain mental health services. The wealthier just pay for services, and the poorest obtain Medicaid, while the middle are just out of luck.

I think as a country we are far behind in recognizing the need for a good universal health care plan that will cover all citizens for their basic mental and physical health care needs, as in the long run, we all pay the costs of human suffering.Companies are decreasing or finding ways to eliminate health insurance.

People are unable to afford the costs of insurance, or are between jobs or unemployed with no insurance. Until we, as citizens, come to some agreement on the basic health care needs of all citizens, with regard to both mental and physical health care, people will continue to suffer.

Please express to your elected representatives that disparate health care for mental health services is unacceptable and push for insurance changes, so that those who need mental health care can receive the help they need. It could save a life.
