New mental health centres for youth
The Federal Health Minister Nicola Roxon has announced the establishment of 20 new treatment centres for young people with mental illness. The centres will be located mostly in regional and rural areas and will help young people at risk of mental health, drug and alcohol problems. The Government says as many as one-in-four young people have a mental health problem. The Minister says the need for more youth services is particularly urgent in regional areas where communities continue to struggle with the impact of drought and high unemployment. Young people have welcomed the announcement. 21-year-old Carla Frost of Melbourne was treated in an adult facility several years ago and she says it was a frightening experience. "I sort of thought oh my God that could be me," she said.

Restoration brings glow back to BGE and downtown
The Lexington Street construction fences are now down at Baltimore Gas and Electric Co.'s former headquarters. After months of renovation, one of downtown's most dignified office buildings (1916) has been reinvented by being made into apartments. I can't think of a better boost to this downtown Baltimore neighborhood. I pushed through the big revolving doors yesterday and found the lobby looking the best it's appeared in my memory. This preservation-driven rehab has exposed limestone walls hidden by unfortunate attempts at modernization in the groovy 1960s. Not everything is World War I-era here: The lobby is clean and fresh, with a honey wood tone lobby reception desk and new light fixtures. .
