Tina Brown: The Price of a Photo - Newsweek: "The deaths of the brave and brilliant photojournalists Chris Hondros and Tim Hetherington ripped the hearts of all those who care about bearing witness to the truth. At a time when it’s harder and harder to get attention for what’s happening in the dark places in the world, we leave it to talents like theirs—often unsupported by any news organization—to go on risking their lives to send us proof.

Dumped to die, this orphan is now a Gates scholar - The Times of India: "She was just three days old, when she was left to die in a lonely alley in the temple town of Haridwar. Dumped to her fate, she lay by the roadside sobbing and gasping for breath amidst the ebb and flow the Ganga nearby. But destiny had something else in store. Soma Sharan was picked by a good Samaritan. That was 1993. And from an orphanage in Haridwar to heady Los Angeles to being the prestigious Gates Millennium scholar - it's been a giant leap of fate for the 18-year-old girl."

Prepared 4 Life: Inspiring Entrepreneurs, One Lemonade Stand at a Time - AOL Small Business

Prepared 4 Life: Inspiring Entrepreneurs, One Lemonade Stand at a Time - AOL Small Business: "Michael Holthouse, the Houston-based entrepreneur and philanthropist behind National Lemonade Day, says his idea for a day centered around teaching youth about business all started with a turtle.

When she came up with the idea to do a lemonade stand to make money (and unbeknownst to him, to buy herself the turtle), Holthouse was excited to help his daughter out.
