David Weinberger posted last night about the shockingly small amount of money the United States was pledging to the Tsunami victims. I posted about it briefly at the PBAHQ, and got tracked back by a British professor named David Smith who discussed the matter in more detail:
It is, then, a shock to read these sentiments:

So, I have been paying as much attention to the news as I usually do
lately. I just don't want to right now. My head's been buried in
administrating the challenge because it's something positive, I've been
having metablogging/organization of the left conversations with other
people, and basically ignoring the news. I know the blog is suffering
because of this behavior, and I apologize for that. But that's the
reason for it.

Found at: A Glinting Glimps FROM ABOVE THE WALL. (Weblog An Iranian Women)
Leila, a 19 year old woman, faces imminent execution in Iran. What
childhood she has had has been marred with physical and sexual abuse
from the age of 8, giving birth to her first child at the age of 9.
Having become a concubine to an Afghan man at the age of 12, Leila was
forced into prostitution by him until the age of 14 when she gave birth
to twin daughters. Leila was then given to a 55 year old married man
who continued her history of abuse until her arrest at the age of 18,
when she was found guilty of prostitution. Prostitution carries the
death penalty under the Islamic laws of Iran.
Help stop this impending murder here!
