Christy Turlington's plea to Obama

Supermodel-turned-author Christy Turlington's latest post for her Marie Claire column makes a special request to President-Elect Obama to save women around the world.
Christy reports that each year, more than half a million global women die preventable deaths giving birth due to inadequate medical practices. Unfortunately, 16 percent of these deaths (67,000 annually) are due to unsafe abortion procedures.

The survey culled results for over a two-week period last summer, and either offers a rather revealing window into the behavior of teens, or at least those that are fans of the Tyra show.
