November 19 | 10:04PM

Creo, que el verdadero sentido de conmemorar las fechas históricas es sin duda hacer una remembranza de la evolución de los hechos y de los avances de un país. Mañana se conmemorarán 98 años del inicio de la Revolución Mexicana. Para entender la revolución desde un punto de vista que sobrepase el blog sugiero leer la novela "Los de... (read more)

A different aspect of future doctors!!!
I have always been made fun of by my buddies who are studying in MBA or Engineering universities. I am a medical student in Dow medical college. They always say that medical students are boring. They live in a shell of their own. They have no creativity. They are serious souls and so on... I am sure many of you out there have a similar opinion.... (read more)

His words recounted the feats of the Chinese people in the last 10 months. Heavy and unseasonal snowfall, an earthquake that devastated surface areas equivalent to three times the... (read more)

working in Plaestine
I have just returned from my 3rd trip to Palestine. I was unfortunately only there this time for a little over two weeks. There is so much work to do that every time I have to leave to go back to the US I just wish I could stay a bit longer. The trip went by way too quickly.

Pot Calling th Kettle black
Following the aftermath of prop 8 being passed it has been reported that the reason for its success was due to blacks voting. To me that eerily sounds like Jim Crow thinking. In the land of the free and a place where all minorities have struggled for equal rights, why would one group of minorities allow finger pointing at another. I understand... (read more)
