...prosper. However, the appearance of Putera Serapi made the princesses love struck. The prince asked both of them to marry him but they refused to share. The princesses quarreled over the prince which also caused the villagers to fight amongst each other. Puteri Sejinjang hit Puteri Santubong on the cheek with her rice pounder and Puteri Santubong countered by striking her with her belidak, the tool she uses for weaving. Both princesses died and were cursed to become mountains, Gunung Santubong and Gunung Sejinjang. Based on Vladimir Propp’s seven spheres of action, seeing that Raja Kayangan had sent the two princesses to aid the people of the villages, he acts as the Dispatcher and by granting them special abilities he is also the Donor and the Helper. This in turn makes the princesses Heroes. The Princess, or in this folklore’s case, the Prince is the one that Puteri Santubong and Puteri Sejinjang wants to marry; Putera Serapi. But by ending the peace between the two villages also causes the princesses to become False Heroes ergo the Villains. The only binary opposition that can be found in the story is the time which the princesses chose to do their work. Puteri Santubong preferred to weave cloth at night time because the air was cooler while Puteri Sejinjang liked to pound rice during the day when the air was...

Mandatory organ donation may not be the good way of human right as some people say organ donation should not being under control of rule or law.

...Chapter 1-Introduction The motive of donor nations for administering foreign aid has unfolded over time. Over the past 100 years, foreign aid structures that began with European colonialism have become tied to shifting economic and political interests, as well as growing humanitarian movement (Phillips, 2013). This process began mainly after World War I when developed countries saw that less developed countries were in dire need of development assistance. Therefore, they started to aid these countries in order to catch-up on western countries by providing capital and the technological know-how needed. Since then there has been a shift of focus of aid donors from the original developmental aspects to politically influenced strategies. (Deaton, 2015) argued in his book The Great Escape: Health, Wealth, and the Origins of Inequality, that aid does not work, and that it can accelerate corruption and keep bad leaders in power. However, many prominent scholars viewed his work on aid puzzling and deemed inconclusive because of the different uses and impacts aid has on different recipient countries (Radelet, 2015). Although extensive research has been conducted in how aid is given and if aid works, little has been done to understand the motives and determinates behind donor countries; thus, how they motivate aid allocation. Guidelines are drawn up by the donor country to ensure that the funds are used accordingly but governments generally give foreign aid for three main purposes; (1)...

...kidney, because the dialysis is not a lifetime solution. Think about how frustrating and anxious you might be to live a life waiting for a organ transplant that could be much more easily if a great amount of people donate it. After a transplant of a vital organ, the average survival rate is over 80%. A massive increase from the 20% that would live without the surgery. With medical breakthroughs, and a organ and tissue donation, you can help save the live of many people all over the world. One person who donates organs (hearts, lungs, liver, kidneys, pancreas and intestines) can save up to ten lives, while a tissue donor (corneas, bone, skin, heart valves, tendons, veins, etc.) can improve 12 or more lives by restoring eyesight, helping fight infections in burn patients and preventing the loss of mobility and disability. When asked if they would like to become organ donors, many people ask themselves "Why should I donate my organs? What are the benefits? " For many people the topic of organ donation can be a touchy one. Many people have religious beliefs against the practice, or apply...

...BECOMING AN ORGAN DONOR By the time this day ends approximately eighteen people will have died needlessly. Not due to car crashes, gang violence or drug overdoses. Surprisingly they will have died from the simple act of waiting. They died while waiting for a much needed organ donation to replace their failing organ. For days, weeks even months they had hoped to receive news that somebody, somewhere had selflessly volunteered to donate their organs upon their death to another human being living on borrowed time. That news never came and time ran out. Perfectly good organs were buried with another non-donor who had no use for them anyhow because that person was already dead, yet without agreeing to give up their organs upon their death another life will be lost. Everyone can help to save lives by donating your vital organs after you have passed away. You will have no further need for them and I promise, you won’t even notice they are gone. How do you feel when you have to wait for something you really, really want? What if it was something you couldn’t live without? Nearly 80,000 Americans are waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. Hundreds of thousands more would benefit from a life enhancing tissue transplant. Each day, averages of 75 people receive organ transplants. However, averages of 20 people die each day waiting for transplants that can't take place because of the shortage of donated organs. Every eleven minutes another name is added to an organ donation...

...little about the department and their specific job. Morale was also low, and this is another cause for inefficiency. 2) I think she should recommend that the work load should be more evenly distributed throughout all of the employees. Another thing is that Elena should probably be taken out of her position of management, because she said that she didn’t like it, and the clique rarely listened to her anyway. Sam and Jose should also probably look at the work done by their department, and the employees should receive more training so they know the purpose of their job. If all of these things are fixed, this could also help morale. 3) Sam and Jose have a more delegated style of management, both saying how they didn’t really enjoy being in the donor services department, but liked working in the field much more. They relied on Elena for the management, and sometimes showed up to “just say hi”. Elena’s management style is not fitting with the way Sam and Jose act, she is a quiet nervous type person, who is a good worker but is not a great leader. She also has trouble with conflict, and is ignored by her employees when she tells them to do things. 4) Motivation could be improved if the work load was more evenly distributed. There would be less gossip by the Clique and the other workers would have a little less stress on their plates. Elena may also want to think about stepping...

...with Donors A Checklist for Creating a Proactive-Relationship Development Process July 2011 Not-for-profit organizations depend on the financial support of individuals and corporate donors, and whether you realize it or not, a pledge can be the beginning of a long-term relationship with your organization. Or, as Humphrey Bogart so eloquently put it, a donation to support your cause can be "the start of a beautiful friendship." Unfortunately, many organizations struggle to find the time to establish relationships with donors. Phone calls, people dropping by, employee issues, and e-mails seem like a giant time-sucking machine that descends from the ceiling in your office and vacuums the life out of your day. With corporate and individual donors struggling financially, building relationships with your supporters has never been more important. Here are some tips for building highly effective relationships with your support base. Treat the following suggestions as a checklist to see how your organization is doing on the proactive-relationship development front: * After you receive a donation, reach out to the donor (if you'd like help writing scripts to help you do this, e-mail me atkevin@notforprofitgroup.com). Make it clear how much you appreciate his/her/their generosity and support. Sometimes a simple "thank you" goes a long way toward securing another gift. * Be direct, but honest. A pledge drive or capital campaign is the most obvious way that potential donors see...

...Good donor relationships are fundamental to successful financing. Donors need to feel that they are part of our team and need to know how important it is for our success. Good donor relationships will have a surprising impact on our nonprofit organization, including fewer donor losses, more donations, and more new donors. How to raise more money, there is no way to match the direct and private calls with donors. E-mail, direct mail, newsletters and other media means play an important role in nonprofit work, but regular conversations with donors can best affect our financing income. The most successful nonprofit organizations for personal and large-scale financing are those that spend the most time on the relationship with donors and potential donors....

...When taking about painting, the works during Renaissance cannot be ignored. At that period, humanism was advocated, variety of painting whose themes were generally concerned with religion, especially Christianity had been created. The first painting I want to critique is Lamentation with Saint and a Donor. The composer did not use much contour which made the edge of the figures and objects clearly. Compared with the background plants, the colors using of figures are more brightly, which draws the viewers’ attention directly to them and will main focus on Jesus. Human’s figures are idealized and overlapped with each other, with the landscape in the background, create spacial depth. The painting uses linear perspective in order to emphasis...

...Become an Organ Donor Marylou Schreiner COMM/215 January 13, 2014 Ruth Palumbo Become an Organ Donor The New Year is here and it’s the time of year full of cheer, love, gift giving, and resolutions. Why not consider the resolution of giving the gift of life by becoming an organ donor? According to the Mayo Clinic, “over 100,000 people in the United States are waiting for an organ donation. (Mayo Clinic 2013).In fact, the latest number from UNOS is 120,860. In additions eighteen people will die every day waiting for the life saving organ to come. They will never receive the call stating, “we found a match.” The call that can that give them a second chance at life. Most of us don’t think about what happens to the body after you die. It is a sensitive subject matter people prefer not to think about, let alone discuss with their families and friends. However, everyone should take the time to discuss the importance of, “how can I help others if I were to die? Various questions should be asked: Why should I donate my organs? What are the benefits? Are there any reasons not to? What happens to me? These are excellent questions that can be answered by viewing the OrganDonor.gov website. Many people do not think about signing a donor card because of the many myths surrounding organ transplant and tissue donation. Most of these myths are not true and are based on fear. Some of these fears include: the hospital staff won’t work as hard to save my life, maybe I won’t...

...Become an Organ Donor “Life is like an onion: you peel it off one layer at a time, and sometimes you weep (Sandbury, n.d.).” By this time tomorrow, 12 people in America who are alive right now will be dead. Not because they were in a car wreck, Not because they were gunned down, Not because their time had come, not even because they were not in the hospital, but simply because they could not be given a life-saving transplant in time. 12 people will die because the organ transplant they need will not be possible. Money is not the issue here, nor is scarcity. Each day, there are more than enough potential donors who pass away who could meet all the needs of people on the waiting list. The problem is those potential donors die without leaving instructions that they are prepared to help someone live after them. And this is an issue on an enormous scale. Currently, nearly 60,000 Americans are waiting for a life saving organ transplant. Hundreds of thousands more would benefit from a life enhancing tissue transplant. And yet every day 12 people will die while awaiting a transplant. And every 16 minutes another name is added to the waiting list. Here is the real tragedy: It truly is so easy to fix this problem. Fortunately, there is an amazing network across the United States that links hospitals with one another and can match donors with potential patients. In addition, there is another reliable and sophisticated organizations running like the United Network for Organ Sharing which...

...Virtually anyone can become an organ donor. On average, approximately 30 people die everyday due to a shortage of available organ donors. “Statistics show that there are more than 114,895 Americans awaiting their organ transplants, while millions of people die each year without signing up as organ and tissue donors” (“Be an Organ Donor - Learn More on Organ Donation.”). Often times, drivers who perish in car accidents, and others who die suddenly who have not declared themselves to be organ donors will be buried with all of their viable, healthy organs. This takes the chance to live a healthy away from a person dying of organ failure. Organ donation can offer an improved quality of life for the recipient. Not only is there a severe shortage...

...of a transplant, but also opened the door to controversies such as organ sales. The first proposal to sell organs came from Virginia physician Dr. H. Barry Jacobs in 1983. He suggested that whoever could afford to buy a kidney should be allowed to do so. As a result of Dr. Jacobs’s proposal, Congress banned the sale of organs in 1984, and that law still exists today (Meckler A.1). Another change in organ donation happened in 1968, when the Uniform Anatomical Gift Act was introduced. This tried to increase the donor pool and make donating a person’s organs at his or her time of death easier. The act, however, did not raise the donation pool enough to keep up with the organ transplant waiting list (Fentiman 43). The waiting list is the topic of another controversy that has been occurring for several years and still exists today. Currently, there are 98,010 people on the waiting list, and 74,260 of those people are waiting for a kidney transplant (Alexander A1; “Paying Donors . . . ” 8A). Chelsea Lopez is one of those patients hoping to receive that life-saving donation. Chelsea Lopez was diagnosed with Focal Segmental Glomerulosclerosis, a disease that attacks the kidneys, at the young age of twelve-years-old. Leading a normal life is very difficult because the disease causes her to have high blood pressure, anemia, nausea, and extreme fatigue. She struggles to find a normal balance between frequent hospital visits and teenage activities. Chelsea,...
