I am supposed to be watching my dermatology slides right now but i am not rather bloging. I can bet that it is much more fun than doing the former.

Every inch in vertical adds 789 dollars per annum to the purse. So standing at 72 inches i have much better prospects of a wealthy life than many of my collegues hummmmmmmmmmmm.

Alija izetbegovic dies The leader who lead the bosnian muslims in the war of independence in 1992-95 has died. He was 78. He once said In 1997 that "the West is not rotten. Islam is the best, that is true, but we are not the best. Instead of hating the West, let us compete with it. Let's have a dialogue with it." And i see it stands true to this day.

Antibiotics Scientists now believe that using antibiotics is not safe in infants and can give rise to allergies in the later periods of life. These findings were presented in the annual meeting of the European Respiratory Society in Vienna. Scientists believe that infants who have been on antibiotic courses had 2.5 times more chances of developing asthma than those who had had no such treatment. But they say that this does not mean that children shouldn't receive antibiotics rather doctors should be prudent in their use. via scientific american.
