Gotta specialize in the US as well. I believe emergancy room trauma takes a 4 year residency while general practice only takes a year or so, brain surgery takes 475 years from what I can tell....they are all so damn old

One of my sister's ex University roomies (they are still friends) is serving a five year residency and I believe she will be a neuro surgeon. She did some modeling when she was in University and had a few bit parts on TV shows from time to time. A good looking "blond" neuro surgeon????Originally posted by strato

The selections are also very political, personality based etc. What puts me off the most is just how you have to dedicate the extra 6 years of training to your work at the expense of nearly everything else. It's not a sacrifice I'm prepared to make at the moment.

I know at University of Cincinnati they paid the residents 42,000 a year
But they had to be some of the sharpest doctors I have veer had the pleasure of working with. They actually had to fly on the helicopter for the last 2 years. And they knew how to party as well

There is a little more about my sister's friend. When she got out of Univeristy she could not get into med school in the states (I am not clear on the reasons why). Her mother or father was a Polish citizen and she got into a med school in Poland and trained...I think...for a year. She was then accepted into med school in the states...but I think her year of training in Poland did not count.Originally posted by sacX

Yes, Iraq WAS a US Ally.
And you just proved my point. US(like any other government) only wants what's in his best interest). Saddam right now wasn't, so they wanted him out. Iran wasn't in the 80s, so they was pro-Saddam.

The USA is the subject of attack from "Islam" due to the belief among some muslims that anything that ditracts from Allah is the devil.
Our policies and culture are so offensive because we support
1 Jews (thier sworn enemies).
2 Have tried and succeded in bringing commerce to the middle east the byproduct of wich is western culture (teaching women and children to wriite drive and enjjy modern ameniteies).
It is true that our policy has many flaws the bush and ashhahahahaha policies are way too invasive and in general we are losing our civil liberties in a scary whirlwind of rhetoric.
There has always been a price for freedom nations have been built and they have falled. Nevr thoug throughout history has such a young nation lived and thrived like we have in the US even with our recent setbacks in civil liberties we are still have freedoms and the ability to have almost anything we can concieve. This board is full of proof of that!
If you live anywhere but the USA you only get half the picture as we in the USA have to dig deep to get the rest of the story.
The Arabs that dispise the USA have always been a hatefull sort thier culture is not one of joy and celebration. Humor is a low priority (ever hear of an middle eastern comedy club). The arab culture lends itself to taking charity and turning on thjier benefactors always has, There is an arab proverb that says just that (sorry i cannot remember it).
I know that personally I like european culture people and enjoy staying for as long as I can.
The opinion expressed by Webby turn me off I would like to ask you have you been hear? Where did you go was Clinton ok with you? Are you Muslim? and how did the US policy effect you and yours?
Also so Saddam and Gadhafi, Idi Iman, Chirac, Bin Laden are on the same level as Bush?

First... Saddam WAS an ally of the US and both that other arrogant US idiot Rumsfeld and Saddam gave each other hugs, not on one occasion, but several. Rumsfeld knows Saddam very well.Saddam was never a U.S. ally. If every thing that all of the haters and bashers said were the factual truth...it is immaterial...as the US will continue to do...what it has always done...
Same as Bush is well accqainted with the bin Ladens and rushed to deny this after 9/11. Osama Bin Laden was an active participant in the bin Laden family business two months prior to 9/11 and the US and Bush crime family traded very profitably with them.
Second... Since you claim Saddam was not an ally.. what the fuck was the guy given a key to Detriot for?? I'm sure he must have been welcomed there at some time?? DUH??
And.. as you correctly said.. the US will continue to do as it has always done - namely mess in everyone else's business and bribe and depose democractically elected governments, get involved and participate in terrorism, torture and killings of many innocent people. Ya don't have to look far - you got plenty of the torturers living in your midst and protected by a corrupt government. Alternatively, have a look at Chile - try going there and letting your stupid mouth loose and you'll get a bullet in the head - they have GOOD REASON to have a hatred of the US.
I have NO SYMPATHY left for an arrogant nation and, if you looked outside, you will see I share the same "opinions" as those of the majority of nations. The US is a ROGUE STATE due for regime change.
Now.. I ain't got time to waste talking crap with idiots who clearly have no sense or either know fuck all.
For once quit your stupid diatribe about "haters" and "bashers" and look at your own back yard... In case you never noticed, its' as trashy as your peanbrain.

Saw a docementry today on swedish television. Some famous Iraq/swedish writer went down for the first time in 28 years to his home country..this was not long ago. Problem with bandits and things like that. When they interviewed an iraqish english teacher she said that womens nightmare was kiddnaped or raped. And all people hasn't this ohh yes Americans. One little girl got shot when she wanted to shake hand with an american soldier.
btw, I saw some young solidiers on the road with machine guns..you could hear them talking when they was about to leave..they really thought they was the shit.
Reminds me of that lion on the zoo.

the US was officially neutral.. but they didn't assist Iran and Iraq equally.. they clearly thought Iraq the lesser of two evils.
