     When Nancy Lublin received $5,000 from her grandfather in 1996, she never once considered taking a
vacation or paying off student loans (貸款). Instead, the 24-year-old New York University law student
began thinking about helping low-income women get better jobs. "If a woman goes for a job interview (面試)
poorly dressed, she won't get the job, " Lublin says."But without a job, she can't afford suitable clothes."
     So, with the money Lublin founded "Dress for Success' and began collecting women's clothes which were
still in good condition but which their owners no longer needed. "So many women have clothes lying around
that they will never wear again," one of Lublin's assistants says "Nancy's idea is so simple and yet so important
to women."
     Many women come to Lublin's office before going to a job interview. Here, they receive a suit, shoes and
any other things they need, Since it was set up, more than 1,000 women have turned to "Dress for Success"
for help. Many of them have won job. Some have round jobs after being out of work for many years. Jenny,
a 32-year-old woman who was recently hired as a law-firm office manager says, "I made a good impression
(印象) because of 'Dress for Success'."

     One year ago today, seven patients shared their stories of illness and recovery on the New York Time Well
(a blog), according to a report published in April,2009.
     They were the first Patient Voices, a regular series that offers a first person (第一人稱的) description of
the challenges patients face as they deal with different kinds of health problems. Since the first Patient Voices
appeared, New York Times producer Karen Barrow has continued to give a voice to a lot of patient stories.
     We heard from Jacqueline Castine of Bloomfield Hills, Mich,who had bipolar disorder (躁郁癥), and whose
son also suffered from mental (精神的) illness."I could not save him," she said."I could not fix (懲罰 ) him.
He leaves a beautiful daughter and a very sad mother."
     And there is runner Alyssa Johnson,43,who was training for the Boston Marathon in 2003 when she began
showing the first signs of Parkinson's disease." Sometimes when I'm running I'll come to a long downhill, and
my legs work the way they used to work and my arm swings (擺動) the way it used to. It's like running before Parkinson's, and that's the best feeling.
     And then there's the voice of Robin Grinsted, 50, of Swansea, S. C.,who has H. I. V. She is refused by her
church and feels lonely."They're not accepting," she said." But I know there will be people putting their arms
around me some day."
