I am holding a clothing drive for size 16 jeans and size 1X shirts, sweaters, and blouses. This is for a survivor who has worked hard for her strong recovery. The courts just awarded her custody of her daughter and both of them are doing beautifully.

Special thanks for Sandy Foran and LaDessa Smith for their support of Save a Survivor's Smile! At Sandy's invitation, I brought two survivors to speak to at a Senior Studies Institute class on Monday. What a great audience. The survivors and the audience had a lively Q and A session.

Yes, it is hard to wrap our minds around the enormous resources needed to treat s*x trade survivors--but isn't it better to grip the burden and throw it down rather than to continue to hide our heads in the sand?

Leslee Udwin spent two years making a documentary on the horrific r**e and killing of young medical student Jyoti Singh. And it asks, has the attack really spurred a sea change for gender equality in India?
