Letter of Transmittal September 25, 2019 The President The White House Washington, DC 20500 Dear Mr. President, On behalf of the National Council on Disability (NCD), I am pleased to submit Organ Transplants and Discrimination Against People with Disabilities, part of a five-report series on the intersection of disability and bioethics. This report, and the others in the series, focuses on how the historical and continued devaluation of the lives of people with disabilities by the medical community, legislators, researchers, and even health economists, perpetuates unequal access to medical care, including life- saving care. Organ transplants save lives. But for far too long, people with disabilities have been denied organ transplants as a result of unfounded assumptions about their quality of life and misconceptions about their ability to comply with post-operative care.

  • Confirmation of Maslow's Hypothesis of Synergy: Developing An
    International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health Article Confirmation of Maslow’s Hypothesis of Synergy: Developing an Acceptance of Selfishness at the Workplace Scale Jiro Takaki 1,*, Toshiyo Taniguchi 2 and Yasuhito Fujii 2 1 Department of Public Health, Sanyo Gakuen University Graduate School of Nursing, 1-14-1 Hirai, Naka-ku, Okayama-shi, Okayama 703-8507, Japan 2 Department of Welfare System and Health Science, Okayama Prefectural University, 111 Kuboki, Soja-shi, Okayama 719-1197, Japan; [email protected] (T.T.); [email protected] (Y.F.) * Correspondence: [email protected]; Tel.: +81-86-272-6254 Academic Editor: Paul B. Tchounwou Received: 25 February 2016; Accepted: 28 April 2016; Published: 30 April 2016 Abstract: This study aimed to develop a new Acceptance of Selfishness at the Workplace Scale (ASWS) and to confirm Maslow’s hypothesis of synergy: if both a sense of contribution and acceptance of selfishness at the workplace are high, workers are psychologically healthy. In a cross-sectional study with employees of three Japanese companies, 656 workers answered a self-administered questionnaire on paper completely (response rate = 66.8%). Each questionnaire was submitted to us in a sealed envelope and analyzed. The ASWS indicated high internal consistency (Cronbach’s alpha = 0.86). Significant (p < 0.001) positive moderate correlations between ASWS scores and job control scores support the ASWS’s convergent and discriminant validity. Significant (p < 0.001) associations of ASWS scores with psychological distress and work engagement supported the ASWS’s criterion validity. In short, ASWS was a psychometrically satisfactory measure.

  • House Md Season 2 Episode 2 Autopsy
    House md Season 2 episode 2 Autopsy This episode is all about what make life worth living even in the face of death Synopsis Andy is a nine year old girl with terminal cancer. She is seen at the beginning of the episode singing Christina Aguilera’s Beautiful as she puts on a wig and smiles at herself in the mirror. But she has a frightening hallucination and has to go to hospital where she becomes Dr House’s patient. Dr House is not just bothered about her condition but about why she is so brave, helping her mother cope with the worry and fears about her illness and comforting her. Dr House doesn’t believe that a nine year old can be that brave and thinks it’s a symptom of disease. During one procedure where Dr Chase is performing the tests, Andy says she has never kissed a boy and wonders what it would be like. Dr Chase says there is plenty of time for that, but Andy says she may die without ever having experienced kissing a boy. She asks Dr Chase to kiss her. Dr Chase says no at first, but changes his mind and kisses her gently on the lips. Back in the office, the team speculate whether Andy has ever been sexually molested which Dr Chase denies saying that he believed her when she said she’d never been kissed. Dr House is cynical and says she’s learned how to manipulate people from being abused then correctly guesses that Dr Chase kissed her when she asked.

  • A Feminist Criticism of House
    Lutzker 1 House is a medical drama based on the fictitious story of Dr . Gregory House, a cruelly sarcastic, yet brilliant, doctor . Dr . House works as a diagnostician at the Princeton-Plainsboro Hospital where he employs a team of young doctors who aspire to achieve greater success in their careers . Being a member of House’s team is a privilege, yet the team members must be able to tolerate Dr . House’s caustic sense of humor . Because of Dr . House’s brilliance, his coworkers and bosses alike tend to overlook his deviant and childish behaviors . Even though Dr . House’s leg causes him to be in severe pain every day, and has contributed to his negative outlook on life, both his patients and coworkers do not have much sympathy for him . The main goals of House’s outlandish behaviors are to solve the puzzle of his patients’ medical cases . Dr . House handpicks the patients whom he finds have interesting medical quandaries and attempts to diagnose them . By conferring with his team, and “asking” for permission from Dr . Lisa Cuddy, Dr . House is able to treat the patients as he sees fit . He usually does not diagnose the patients correctly the first time . However, with each new symptom, a new piece of the puzzle unfolds, giving a clearer view of the cause of illness . Dr . House typically manages to save the lives of his patients by the end of the episode, usually without having any physical contact with the patient . Dr . House has an arrogant and self-righteous personality . Some of the lines that are written for Dr .

    GLOSSARY Acceptance house: It is a financial institution that ‘accepts; a commercial bill, thereby providing a guarantee about the credit-worthiness of the drawer of the bill. This guaranteeing service is provided against a commission. Bank rate: It is a rate at which the Central Bank of a country rediscounts a bill already discounted by a commercial bank. To put it simply, it is the rate at which the Central Bank provides funds to the commercial banking sector at their time of liquidity problems. Base money: See Reserve money Bill discounting: When a drawer of a commercial bill (which has been accepted by a drawee) is in need of funds, it can sell the bill to a discounting agent at a discount to its face value. The difference between the face value and the discounted value is the income of the discounting agent. Bonds: It is a debt instrument that carries with it the promise to repay the loan on a specific maturity date. A bond is a secured instrument, but may not always directly offer an interest return. In case of some bonds, it is issued at a discount to the maturity value, so that the lender gets some return (also see floating rate bonds, deep discount bonds, indexed bonds and junk bonds). Book building process: It is a method of price discovery in the primary capital market. When the price of an issue is discovered on the basis of demand received from the prospective investors at various price levels, it is called “Book Building process.” Here neither the investor nor the issuer knows the exact price of the issue beforehand.
