I am still in somewhat of a shock over Luc's death today. A lot of questions go through my mind. How and why did he lose control of his motorbike? Was he driving erratically?

The witness also said that based on observations it

"I am so sorry for your loss. I need to ask, did your mom/husband/child ever discuss organ donation with you?"This question makes me feel like the worst nurse ever. Since moving to OB, thankfully it isn't a question I need to ask anymore. Yet after working 13 years on Acute Care it is a question I'm familiar with. Until that point I've done everything in my power to either preserve that life, or at least to help death be a calm, pain free transition. In asking that question now, I'm not only acknowledging that there is nothing left to be done, but I'm asking permission to allow a doctor to harvest organs from their mother, spouse, or child.In my job, this is the portion of organ donation I dealt with. Personally though, I've experienced the other end of organ donation. The waiting,

By STUART ELLIOTTMarch 14, NY TimesWHEN the Columbus Children’s Hospital agreed to name a new lobby after two retail chains to thank their corporate parent for a $5 million donation, everyone was all smiles. The same was true when the Ohio hospital renamed itself Nationwide Children’s Hospital, to acknowledge a $50 million gift from Nationwide insurance, a large local company.But a coalition of children’s advocates contends that the hospital went too far by agreeing to name a new emergency department and trauma center after another locally based retailer, Abercrombie & Fitch, in exchange for a $10 million donation.The coalition, which includes the Campaign for a Commercial-Free Childhood, several pediatricians and Parents for Ethical Marketing, is asking the hospital to reconside

This strategy was much more effective if you purchased the annuity on or before December 20th, 2002. The strategy is not as common now as the tax rules have changed, but you could still purchase an annuity from a charity now and receive some tax savings. A donation would be eligible for the tax credit if the amount you pay the charity for the annuity is more than what you would normally have paid for it from a financial institution offering annuities.For example, if you had gone to a life insurance company and asked for a quote for an annuity they might tell you that every $100,000 given to them will give you $1,000/month for the rest of your life (this is based on their actuarial estimation of your life expectancy, prevailing interest rates and interest rate forecasts, an added cushi

Talk about a “big give”: Drew Barrymore announced on Monday’s Oprah Winfrey Show that she is donating $1 million to the World Food Programme to help feed children in Africa.“I have seen with my own eyes what a difference a simple cup of nutritious porridge can make in a child’s life,” the actress said. “It helps them learn, stay healthy and sets them on track for a bright future.”Barrymore, 33, has worked with the charity since 2005 and became an Ambassador Against Hunger last year. She’s taken two trips to Kenya to see the organization’s work first hand.“We have a dream … to feed another 10 million hungry school children in Africa by Thanksgiving Day,” said WFP Executive Director Josette Sheeran, who also appeared on Oprah.It’s nice to see celebrities do someth

If you are a minority, organ donation is particularly critical, as finding minority matches can be next to impossible.Obviously this is a tough subject, we all hope to live a long time, but in the event that we die healthy, wouldn't it be nice to know we might help someone else do that?

I have a friend considering it. At first it was hard for me to understand egg donation. I can’t imagine wanting to undergo all the hormone treatments, “the procedure,” and then just dealing with the idea that one of my offspring would be out there wandering around.  But I realize that my friend is struggling with this choice and I realize my perception may be a bit insensitive. So I did what any of us would do in that situation. I Googled it. My search pulled up The Complete Guide to Egg Fertility and Donation and after coming across this sentence: "Egg donation is one of the very few jobs where females make more than males" I realized my friend might be on to something. Turns out egg donation is more common than I realized, and for someone like my friend who doesn't have an attachment to children and could certainly spare the time and use the money, it doesn't seem like such a big deal. Especially if she's able to make someone out there so happy.

Whenever Ron Paul is found to be receiving support from racist or neo-Nazi groups, his cultists (and there really is no better term for them) rush to his defense. They spam any blog which exposes Paul with bogus claims that the criticism represents mere “guilt by association” and often claim that Paul was unaware of the support. The Lone Star Times is working to put an end to that last defense by showing that Paul received a contribution from an extremist and are challenging him to repudiate it: A LoneStarTimes.com investigation has conclusively established that a leading figure in the American neo-Nazi / White-Supremacist movement has provided financial support to Ron Paul’s 2008 Presidential campaign. The individual in question is Don Black, the founder, owner and operator of Stormfront, a “white power” website that both professional journalists and watch-dog groups have identified as the premier English-language racist/hate-site on the Internet.

By: Jay StockmanMother nature's fury, floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes, have wreaked havoc on many people, and communities. As a result of these devastating events, homes, and lives have been destroyed. Rebuilding infrastructure and property, requires a great deal of resources, and capital. Federal, and local financial aid are much needed, however this aid falls short of what is truly required. Individual contributions are vital to fill these vast short falls. Beyond monetary contributions, donating a used vehicle can greatly benefit the needs of these desperate communities. A car donation is a process whereby both the donors, and the recipients benefit from the transaction.Car Donations are relatively easy, and are done through a charity vehicle donation program. Generally, a telephone call is all that is necessary, in addition to a clear title to the automobile. Many charities will take vehicles that are running or not running. The car donation program will arrange for the vehicl

By: JeffExtending help to the desperate not only benefits the unfortunate but it also benefits you. Help may be categorized as donations, charity work and volunteer work. Reasons for helping or giving to charity are also many but among hem the most important reason is to escape taxation. Though it may sound selfish on one side but it is beneficial for both the donor as well as the recipient on the other side. After all nothing lasts forever and if you can provide those things to the charity which is not anymore required by you it will not only give you a rush of good feelings but also it would be helpful for those who need it. Donating a car or vehicle follows different sentiments. Volunteers of America offer several services among them are; children and youth services that are built for the purpose of protecting children, teenagers and families; elderly services that offer retirement communities, meal programs and assisted living programs; emergency services, homeless services, and ho

By: JeffIf you are a Portland area resident who is facing the decision of what to do with an old, but still functioning automobile, you may be able to turn it into a tax benefit by making a car donation in Portland. As long as you donate it to an Internal Revenue Service recognized charity, you will be guaranteed a minimum write-off of $500.00m and it could be significantly higher if the charity sells it for more. The best part is that Portland is home to many charities which will accept donated cars, and even pick them up. Portland CharitiesIf you'd like an idea of what the charities to which you can make a car donation in Portland are, there are a few which stand out.

By: JeffDonating cars to a charity is an excellent and a humble way for a person to make a fairly large investment in charitable work and at the same time helps you to work as a wise steward of your ownerships taking the opportunity of the advantage of escaping paying tax to the government. Car donation program is an efficient fundraising tool sponsored by non-profit organizations as a way to raise money to assist especially the disfavored of the world.If a person is striving to be a good steward of his financial resources then he needs to become educated concerning the different ways, laws and accepted practices that govern donating cars to charity. There are different ways through which donating car to the charity can be accomplished. You can donate your car directly to the charity of your choice, or you can donate your car to any charitable foundation that converts the material donation into cash, which is gifted to the person in need as a charity.

Florida International University just got a boost in its push to open a new medical school: A $5-million donation from the North Dade Medical Foundation. FIU officials on Wednesday announced the gift, which is eligible for a $5-million state match and will be used for scholarships and for endowed professor's chairs. "This endowment provides an avenue to attract the best students from South Florida to our College of Medicine," said FIU President Mitch Maidique. The scholarships will be merit-based, for Miami-Dade and Broward County residents, starting in fall 2009 when the college is expected to welcome its inaugural class. FIU and the University of Central Florida got state approval last year to open new medical schools.

I came across the ChipIn plugin on someone’s blog the other day (wish I remembered which one so I could link to it) and think it’s darn nifty (yes I still say “nifty”, you should too). Essentially, this is a simple widget that sits in your blog’s sidebar or anywhere on your website or forum encouraging your visitors to donate towards whatever goal you have set and tracking the progress. I haven’t used it yet, though I’m strongly considering doing so on my HorrorClix Forums and It’s Wicked Fun. You simply enter what you’re raising the money for, how much you’re looking to raise, the date you need it by, and your PayPal account. Then you copy and past the code into your site. Your visitors click the “ChipIn” button and send their donations securely through PayPal, then the widget automatically updates the status bar to show how close you are to your goal as well as how many individual donations have been receive

One for each day between your blood donation!4.5 million Americans would die each year without life saving blood transfusions. Approximately 32,000 pints of blood are used each day in the United States. Every three seconds someone needs blood One out of every 10 people entering a hospital needs blood. Just one pint of donated blood can help save as many as three people's lives. The average adult has 10 pints of blood in his or her body. One unit of blood is roughly the equivalent of one pint. Blood makes up about 7% of your body's weight. A newborn baby has about one cup of blood in his or her body. The average red blood cell transfusion is 3.4 pints. Blood fights against infection and helps heal wounds, keeping you healthy. There are four main blood types: A, B, AB and O. AB is the universal recipient and O negative is the universal donor. Blood centers often run short of type O and B blood. Shortages of all types of blood occur during the summer and winter holidays. If all blood do

Lingerie - are happy to help in raising awareness about the importance of being an organ donor. There are so many people waiting for organs, and they will die if they cannot find an organ donor. It's the greatest gift a person can give. The gift of life. J.... had a friend who was a recipient of a donor kidney. From what we experienced with him we can tell how much it changes the life of an affected person and all the people around. Besides the health problems, it also gives them a second chance of live. S.... Being an organ donor can save a life. You can donate while you are still alive or when you are deceased. More people should do this if they are able to live a healthy life and give a life to someone else. We at Feeling are all registered as organ donors ourselves and are very proud of this decision. Please everybody, listen up, and if you are not already an organ donor make sure you become one. Don't forget to tell your friends about it too. If you read some of th

Since 1995 I have carried an organ donation card in my wallet. In theevent that I die, it legally gives doctors permission to use my organs. All of them except my eyes.I know that by donating organs, a person can give another "The gift of Life." But there are cases in which donated organs do not save lives due to some of the complications involved.I could list the number of people waiting for donations.I could write about why people should donate.I could talk about why people in opposition should change their view.But none of that serves to help the problem at hand.Lack of Awareness.Lack of people willing to participate in the many different ways available.Lack of people with the knowledge of how to be a potential donor. Whether one opposes the practice or supports it.Whether it is right or wrong.None of that holds any weight against those in the position of actually waiting for a potential donor that may save their life. The staggering amount of people waiting for organsspeaks volumes

Beyonce Knowles' pre-concert food donation drive supports her minister and friend, Pastor Rudy Rasmus, as well as America's Second Harvest and the Houston Food Bank. Watch a report from CBSNews.com....

BlogCatalog requested that this Wednesday (today) we write about the importance of organ donation. The subject of life saving measures has been weighing recently on my mind and I'll admit I'm in the dark when it comes to organ donation in a foreign county. So here's what I've learned: In 1997, Germany passed a transplant law that officially assigned the Deutsche Stiftung Organtransplantation (DSO) the role of coordinating the organ donation procedure and organ procurement. Yet, the number of people actually declaring themselves as organ donors is still rather low in Germany. According to a 2001 study, 82% of Germans polled are in favor of organ donation and 67% are willing to donate their organs after death. But less than 15 percent of Germans actually document this on a donor card. If no

BlogCatalog is currently promoting Blog For A Good Cause that will occur this Wednesday, July 18. On Wednesday I will blog about organ donation, and I am hoping that others will join in if they do not plan to already. This is an opportunity for bloggers to help raise awareness about this important issue, and I think we should take the challenge! :) So join me and I imagine many others and blog about organ donation on July 18.

BlogCatalog has started a campaign for organ donation. When I was informed about this, I felt a strong need to contribute for a cause that I believe on completely.The best of organ donation is that when you die, you don't do it completely, but you can make something of your person continues living in another one.In some way, it's like being a hero, because your life will guarantee that others continue living.The existence of sick people whose organs are damaged is very painful. For example, people that have kidney trouble have to spend hours connected to a machine that cleans their blood. Or people who suffer from heart disease, whose existence seems to slip away each minute waiting for a phone call that may change their lives.When we talk about children the things get worse. There is nothing as terrible as a child suffering. Innocent creatures that, instead of enjoying their childhood, they are trapped in a bed, without being able to do what the other children do: play, jump, run..

You’ve probably seen this in a couple of blogs. Its a way for readers to make a donation to you (the blogger!) via PayPal. It can be placed on your sidebar or at the end of every post. Well, I mean, if you put out some really great content, no harm asking for a drink… I’m sure we have plenty of generous readers out there! When your readers click on that button, they are taken to a secure PayPal page where they can make a donation to you. So what’s with the ‘Buy Me a Beer’ or etc thingy? Stats show that by giving people a specific reason to donate, donations increase by 200%! So I’ve added one on my blog as well. To set the record straight, I don’t really particularly like beer, so all I’m asking for is a drink (maybe Apple Juice, its my favourite!), anyway alcohol is exorbitantly expensive here in Singapore.  But really, all proceeds will go towards my wedding preparations which takes place this December. So if you like my blog,

I'm sure you have seen the buttons or maybe read the requests, where bloggers ask for donations on their blogs. I am not clear why people like to donate money but i can summarise it to be to benefit themselves by gaining knowledge or value. Nowadays with blogging so popular theres vast sources to gain your knowledge from and its free most of the time too, oh but remember these a lot of rubbish out there too. I regularly read the content from my fellow bloggers in my blogroll and gain great value from them and yet none ask for donations. But there is some exceptions to this, with a few well written requests around that are done almost tongue in cheek and with a sense of humour. Just one example would be Rhys's blog The Gospel According To Rhys. After this blog update you will see a small beer icon behind with the followign words. If you've enjoyed this, why not buy me a beer? If you haven't, why not contribute to my death by alcohol poisoning by buying me a beer?. He does this wel

Am planning to make a directory submission tool on donations. This is going to be an absolutely free on-site tool, where directory pages will open in the browser, nothing to install. Am planning to run and manage this thing on donations only, absolutely no profit motive. The main reason for making this tool is to help the webmasters. This tool will have two modes, the automatic mode which will have zero manual interference, and the manual mode for those free directories that has captcha enabled. Also if the budget holds, users will have there own customized list of directories that they will use for submissions. The current estimate for the project is: $ 125 for 10 year domain booking. $ 250 20 MB space for 10 years, as this project is going to take too much cpu and ram, so I guess going with godaddy etc won’t be a nice idea, so I have contacted my friend, and he is ready to host it on his server. $ 400 for the coders and designers! So, the current prediction for the entire proje

I burst into laughter today when I discovered that MyKakis Dot Net, a sick Malaysian website dedicated to smear nothing but total embarrassment to Malaysian Malay women (wanita Melayu) is seeking donations to help them host their sick website on a dedicated paid hosting service and purchase some kind of license for an online forum web application. As far as I’m concern, this sick website does
