"The existence of prostitution is the only reason sex trafficking exists." - J. Friedlin quoting D. Hughes

"[Sexual] trafficking is simply the global form of prostitution." - M. Farley

in 2006, germany provided sex shacks, "mega-brothels" and street service to meet 'the "needs" of the men who will attend the World Cup competition' (see Germany's Sex Shacks Tarnish World Cup).

considering our current prostitution laws, Canada is now talking about the decriminalization of brothels.
British Columbia is host to the 2010 olympics.

    i was looking at tix yesterday...seems that coming back thru NY is a real possibility...actually i found decent rates thru Toronto too, so we'll see! be praying, cuz it is going to take a financial miracle for us to go at all. love you! i read some of your stuff about the trip to Japan...seems like an amazing time.
    xoxo

    Hey Tash! I def. wish that I could be there to go to the exhibition to see your photos and hear how Japan was. I am sure you are busy but when you get a chance I would love to hear about it! We are doing well...Zeph will be 2 months tomorrow! and he is getting big (almost doesn't fit into his 0-3months clothes!). It is still a ways off, but Claudio and I may try to fly through NY at the end of the year...if we do, I will let you know, so that we could maybe SEE YOU!!! Talk to you soon.
    xoxo

    ha ahhh facebook...how i miss thee :(
    I was a big fan of the "Super Poke" application...where you could throw a sheep at someone or do a Karate chop lol classic.

    anything fun planned for this weekend?
  • Dec 7 2007 7:47 AM

    Tasha!! I would love to be coming that way again soon. It sucks we couldn't hook up last time. I still have a lot of love for the city of Toronto so it will definitly be on my destination list as soon as I can make that kind of trip. Thanks for adding our song to your page, it means a lot to us. And we just added some new members to the band so hopefully once we all get solid together we'll make a full length cd and put it online. Hope you're well. Love to hear what you're up to these days.
  • Dec 7 2007 4:47 AM

    Tasha, thank you so much for the nice comments about my photos. I have only been taking photos for about six or seven months now and I am self-taught. I have never had any photography classes although I am very anxious to begin some in the spring hopefully. As far as the business goes, I am seriously praying about selling my work and giving a percentage to an organization similar to yours or Kenny and Julie's. I have been discussing this with my husband and we are in the process now of looking into buying a printer so we could begin doing that. My daughter, Courtney (Storybook Photography) has also shared an interest in this. So please pray that God give us direction and the funds to get going. My heart has always gone out to children who have been sexually exploited. God bless you for your work and thanks again for your interest in my photographs. Oh.....I have always loved silent films. That's where my business name came from. When I was a little girl my great grandparents would always watch old silent movies with me so I guess it reminds me of that.

    Thank you so much for the request. We share the same friends....Kenny and Julie! Awesome people.
    I really admire you for the work you are doing! ;) Deborah
