U.S. policy toward Yemen missing key component of food
William Lambers
The U.S. sent 150 million in military aid to Yemen recently so it can resist Al Qaeda and extremists. But while that´s happening, Yemenis displaced by a conflict in the North and living in camps are having their food rations cut. This is the result of low funding from the international community for the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP). These rations will go to zero eventually if new funding is not found.

Will Health Bill Let States Do Better?
David Swanson
The health insurance bill currently under consideration in Congress would forbid states from providing their residents with healthcare. An amendment correcting that problem was passed in committee last July and then quietly removed.

Letting Go of Family for Our Sake
Lourdes Salvador
Reader Question: I was poisoned by solvents and developed multiple chemical sensitivity. I´ve adapted quite well, but my spouse is having difficulty changing his ways. He thinks he is not complete without cologne and my doctor said I must avoid the toxic chemicals colognes and fragrances contain if I want to get well again. My husband can´t understand this concept and is forcefully trying to get me to go to work again despite my doctor´s declaration of disability because he thinks I´m just depressed and not really sick. He won´t listen to my doctor any more than he listens to me. It´s very stressful and he is interfering with my ability to get well. I love him and I´m dependent on his support. How can I convince him this is real?
