...Short Story Wealth Over Love Once upon a time, in the far far away kingdom of Smis, there was a beautiful princess named Elizabeth. She was always satisfied with what she has. She was never sad, and is always smiling, as her kingdom is affluent, full of wealth, power, and dignity. One late evening, she heard a small noise out from the outside of her room. It was a small tiny noise she didn’t really notice at first, but it occurred again. She wondered what it was, so she walked outside to check what it was. Once she got onto her balcony, the bright moon light hit her body. She felt lighted up. The stars are sparkling like ice cubes, with the backdrop of the sky which was glowing blue. The mysterious noise repeated again, and with more distinct of frustration. It was the small sparrow under the full moon. Elizabeth stood there and kept observing the sparrow. The sparrow kept making the frustrating sound, and never got onto the branch, and keeps flying around near the tree. Her sound was sharp, long, and seems like she’s longing for someone. She sounded like she is singing to someone to come to her. The bird seem painfully isolated comparing to the fulfilled moon with it’s company of sparkling stars. Looking at the sparrow, Elizabeth felt the dryness. Then came a male sparrow. It flew up to the tree where the other sparrow was. Elizabeth couldn’t hear anymore frustrating sound from the sparrow. The two sparrows started to fly around together for a while. Then I could...

...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...

It is a very rare inherited genetic disorder that is likely in one out of every five thousand births. Children with the syndrome have an extra chromosome 18, causing the child to have many malformations and mental retardation. Nineteen out of twenty of the children with the Edward's Syndrome die before their first birthday. There are three types of the Trisomy 18 Syndrome. The first one is most common it's called Full Trisomy 18. In this case a full extra chromosome is present in each cell. This type is not hereditary. The second type is very rare, it's called Partial Trisomy 18. This type of the syndrome can be hereditary. It occurs when only part of the extra chromosome is present in each cell. The third type is Mosaic Trisomy 18 this is also very rare. The extra part if the chromosome is only present in some of the cells, not all. The defects of Edward's Syndrome can target the brain, heart, craniofacial structures, kidneys and stomach. The children that make it thorough birth appear fragile and weak, many are underweight and have micrognathia.

When she finally awoke, the retired teacher asked in perfect English: 'Where am I? What is happening?' Surprised doctors were left even more confused when it became clear Ms Jieyu - who used to teach English - had lost all ability to speak her native Chinese. An English-speaking doctor was brought in to talk to the pensioner, who confirmed she was speaking the language perfectly - although a little slowly. Her shocked family say while Ms Jieyu had taught English previously, she had not spoken the language in more than 30 years. They say said she had stopped using English after retiring to live with her family on the outskirts of the city of Changsha, in southern China's Hunan province. RELATED ARTICLES Medic Tao Hou, 45, said: 'I can't ever remember having a case like this before but we anticipate with proper rehabilitation and rest she should regain the ability to speak Chinese. 'We assume that the area dealing with her ability to speak Chinese has been damaged, but brain cells to have an ability to repair themselves to a certain extent we would hope to see at least some improvement.' Ms Jieyu was admitted to hospital after suffering a type of stroke called a cerebral infarction, where the blood...

...AMERICA’S ATTITUDE TOWARD SEXUALITY Rebecca Kelly Independent Study October 21, 2014 “Great ambition is the passion of a great character. Those endowed with it may perform very good or very bad acts. All depends on the principles which direct them.” -Napoleon Bonaparte “Playin' a fool's game, hopin' to win; And tellin' those sweet lies and losin' again; I was lookin' for love in all the wrong places; Lookin' for love in too many faces”. –Johnny Lee, 1980 Every night many Americans turn off their lights and lock their doors to prevent unwanted intruders from inviting themselves into their relatively peaceful homes. But what do they do next? Studies from the National Sleep Foundation suggest that 95% of families use some form of electronic media1 before getting a few hours of restless slumber. What they do not generally take into consideration, however, is that the shows and movies that are being watched are completely counter-productive to the doors that have just been locked and have consequently created a false sense of security. Certainly, one would not voluntarily invite an audacious woman who had just shown up on their doorstep into their home with barely any clothing on any more than they would a man with a ski mask and machete. Yet some people willingly subject themselves to this sort of viewing on a consistent basis. Beyond that, there are many children and adolescents left alone to their own devices with unlimited...
