10. Baghdad, Iraq; Type of Hell: Conflict.
It is really surprising that weekend flights are really cheap to Baghdad. The city which has been ruined during the civil war when Saddam’s regime were still in control, is still trying to rebuild. Since the US invasion, stealing, kidnapping, sexual assault and man-slaughter happened everywhere. You might want to stay away from this city as you might be a victim of kidnapping.
9. Dhaka, Bangladesh; Type of Hell: Pollution.
Due to politic instability, military pressure, war chaos and natural disaster, the capital city of Bangladesh faces excessive crisis with high level of pollution. Industries which filled the city brought bad impacts on the environment. Every year, 9.7 tons of garbage are thrown into the river.
8. Yakutsk, Russia; Type of Hell: Environmental extreme.
Welcome to the most freezing city in the world. The temperature often drops to -58′ of Fahrenheit. If this happens then children will have to be dismissed from school. I am sure that the children will prefer going to school rather than staying at home. The heavy fog will limit your view to only 10 meters ahead.
7. Mogadhisu, East Africa; Type of Hell: Lawlessness.
A city where hierarchy is always negotiable. In the year of 1992, thousand cases of rebellion happened everywhere around the city. This was also worsening with heavy drought and famine which have took the lives of thousands. Of course, you certainly won’t find Mogadishu on your holiday brochure.
6. Chernobyl, Ukraine; Type of Hell: Radiation.
If you never heard of Chernobyl, the condemned city, you might want to rethink of living there. In this city radiation is in your everyday life. The big explosion in 1986 has destroyed and since then contaminated every organic lives in this city. There are also numerous reported mutation cases.
5. Oklahoma City, United States; Type of Hell: Natural disasters.
It is a bad time to visit this city from March to August because of unpredictable weather. This is where most of tornados happen in US which makes the city looks like The Day After Tomorrow. It might not suitable for you but for storm chaser especially scientist, this city is heaven.
4. Pyongyang, North Korea; Type of Hell: Oppression.
City with high pressure; people who live there often feel pressurize by their own government. You can only watch one TV channel and radio which both of them are run by the government. Even if you want to leave the city you must have a permit from the authors. I guess they are afraid that people go across to South Korea.
3. Bujumbura, Republic of Burundi; Type of Hell: Corruption.
With the lowest income per capita, makes this city the poorest in the planet. What is most frightening is that there were a number of political murders so I guest no one would be safe. You certainly wouldn’t want to have your honeymoon here.
2. Linfen, China; Type of Hell: Darkness.
The most populated city according Time magazine, very faint and dark which makes it almost like hell on earth. The air is filled with coal pollution and emission. You have to wear a mask anywhere you go. So I guess it is better for us to stay away, far away, from this city.
1. Port Moresby, Papua New Guinea; Type of Hell: Disease.
More than 115 people infected with HIV per month in this city. This city claims the first spot of the worst city to live in. Population growth is uncontrolled with high numbers of rape and stealing. It is 23 fold if you compare it with London. There is a gang here equipped with MI6 who has succeeded in robbing a bank. If you couldn’t find any souvenir here you need not to worry as you probably have brought diseases home with you.

Dentistry in Australia
What you're in for
Dentistry is a small, well-known and high-status profession. In general practice, dentists do any or all tasks associated with diagnosing, treating and preventing disease and abnormalities of the teeth, gums and mouth. An undergraduate degree gets you this far, being the main requirement for registration in all states and territories. Dentists can also specialise in a number of areas, earning titles ranging from the familiar (orthodontist, oral surgeon) to the prehistoric-sounding (periodontist, and prosthodontist) to the more glamorous (forensic odontologist). Becoming a specialist usually involves not only postgraduate study but some years of experience.
Dentistry is obviously a clinically-focused career, requiring an aptitude for hands-on work and also strengths in science and maths. Most dentists work in private practice, some work in government services and a small number are in the defence forces. It is a field of practice that has changed over the years. In recent years there has been growing recognition and more education options for auxiliary dental professionals (see the health science profile), leading to changes in the role of dentists themselves, particularly those in general practice. And it would appear that dentists do indeed need the help of their paraprofessional colleagues in oral health, with many industry bodies expressing concern about the extreme workforce shortages in the profession.
Despite these recent reports, there are still only seven institutions in the country that offer courses to train professional dentists, and a small student contingent that has only grown in very small increments (if at all!) over recent years. All courses are hard to get into, and long (around five years). One is a graduate-entry program and another (at Griffith) is a pre-dentistry degree, which, once completed, is followed by a postgraduate course before registration. This degree structure has the potential to become more common in the future. The structure follows a US-style model where undergraduates enter a general pre-professional degree and then transfer to a postgraduate qualification in their professional area.
As is often the case with professional fields of study, there is little variation in the content and structure of the degrees in this field, as they must all satisfy similar criteria to be accredited with the registration authorities. In dentistry, the trend is usually to begin the course with some foundation science, progressing to applied dental science in the middle years, followed by a final year (or two) spent mostly in clinical placements. All institutions offering dentistry courses have their own clinical facilities for practical learning, including fully-operational clinics open to the public in some cases. In addition, students in their last semester or year should be in placements out in the community.
Admission to all programs generally requires a high cut-off and also a good performance in the Undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences Admission Test (UMAT), as well as a range of prerequisite subjects and usually an interview. If you are interested in this field (and we hope it’s not just the money or status that appeal!), you might also consider medicine, health services and support, rehabilitation, and nursing.
For more information about dentistry careers, check out the Australian Dental Association (ADA) website, at www.ada.org.au . Here, you’ll also find the details of the dental boards that register practitioners in each state and territory.
What’s happening?
Dentists can work just about anywhere and, as in the medical profession, they are increasingly being encouraged to do so amid concerns about limited rural services. The ADA is providing study grants in 2007 for dental students from rural and remote regions in an effort to inspire the interest of students who are more likely to increase the concentration of dental expertise in rural communities most in need in the future. In addition, many ADA members are part of the National Oral Health alliance, which is currently lobbying for a complete review of the oral health workforce throughout the country.

Dentistry in Australia
What you're in for
If you are looking at programs in this field you probably already know a great deal about it. Dentistry is one of the few fields in which most coursework students are already in the profession and are enrolled in upgrade rather than conversion programs. There is a relatively high proportion of research students too. Choosing a program should not be too hard. Like undergraduate courses, most postgraduate options in dentistry are only offered at a small number of universities (maybe only one!) in each state or city, so unless you are prepared to change location or study externally, you will have only a limited selection to choose from. This is assuming that your sights are now firmly set on the dentistry career track; but now that you have the book open, why not browse? You may be surprised at the number of other options there are for a change of direction.

h-index
The h-index, proposed by Jorge Hirsch, is a novel invention for measurment of research achievement. Professor Jorge Hirsch is a physicist at the University of California, San Diego, USA. h-index is the highest number of papers a scientist has that have each received at least that number of citations. Thus, someone with an h-index of 50 has written 50 papers that have each had at least 50 citations. Here are some examples of the highest-ranked physicists, by h-index:

Mexican Wave
Spotted this on AdelaideNow and thought it was a bit much.
THE Adelaide crowd will be banned from starting the Mexican Wave at the Ashes Test from Friday. Cricket Australia announced before the Ashes series the wave would be forbidden in the interests of safety. On the first day of the Gabba Test match, a member of the Barmy Army was evicted from the ground for playing his bugle. The same rules again will apply in Adelaide.
Yeah, right up there with cancer, traffic accidents and wearing white headphones after 2AM - putting your hands in the air like you just don't care is dangerous stuff!

Every year, more than 300,000 people line the streets of Adelaide to welcome the colour and excitement of the Credit Union Christmas Pageant; the traditional herald to the festive season. The 2008 Credit Union Christmas Pageant will begin at 9.30am after the wave record attempt on Saturday 8 November on the corner of King William Street and South Terrace, Adelaide.

Veterinary Medicine in Australia
Specialisations you can do
Veterinary medicine, Veterinary surgery
What you're in for
Lovely, fluffy animals aside, one of the best things about being a vet must surely be the ability to treat and cure disease and sickness and increase quality of life. If you have a passion for animals and a desire to help, along with a strong stomach that will no doubt be necessary at times, then a career in vet science could be for you.
Courses in vet science are extremely competitive to get into and demand near perfect TER scores. They may also require prerequisite subjects (typically in one or more of maths, physics, biology and chemistry) but these should be checked with individual institutions as they do vary.
Part of the reason for the tough entry requirements of vet science courses is that they are offered at a limited number of institutions. Until fairly recently only four universities offered courses in this field, all in metropolitan areas. But the recognition of a skills gap in the rural industries led the profession to accredit two new courses that are based in and focused on, rural areas and practice. Courses are now offered at institutions in New South Wales, Queensland, Victoria and Western Australia. Each course is recognised throughout the country as well as in certain countries overseas.
Almost all vet science courses, which involve either five or six years of full-time study, insist on the same broad-based training that aims to prepare graduates for all areas of practice. Courses place a strong emphasis on practical work, with students working under supervision in external or university-operated veterinary clinics, often in a farm setting. Courses also require students to undertake professional practical work in semester breaks and between academic years.
Australian vets must abide by the code of practice dictated by the Australian Veterinary Association. They are required to register each year with the Veterinary Surgeons Board or Veterinary Practitioners Registration Board of the State/Territory in which they intend to practice.
While the vast majority of veterinary science graduates (around 90 per cent) work as vets in private practice (the majority of these are in suburban general practice) there is a range of alternative career destinations available to graduates. A number of graduates each year find employment in government services (in livestock disease control, diagnostic service work, disease research, animal export/import, for example), in research, higher education or industry. Opportunities for veterinary science graduates are also beginning to emerge in additional areas such as genetic technologies, food safety, animal welfare and urban animal management.
Other fields of study that may interest you include agriculture, environmental studies, dentistry, health services and support, rehabilitation, medicine, nursing, pharmacy, and some of the sciences, especially the life sciences.
For more information about careers in this field visit the Australian Veterinary Association website: www.ava.com.au .
What’s happening?
Compared with other professions, there is currently an above average proportion (80 per cent) of veterinarians in full-time (as opposed to part-time) jobs. Vets also typically work longer hours compared with many other occupations. On average, full-time vets work 47.9 hours each week compared to the average 39.7 hours each week across all occupations.
A new degree structure that has already been established in some fields at selected institutions has the potential to become more common in the future. The structure follows a US-style model where undergraduates enter a general pre-professional degree (perhaps in science or applied science for veterinary science) and then transfer to a postgraduate qualification.
On average, how tough is it to get into Veterinary science courses?

What you're in for:
This is one of the smallest, most exclusive and most enclosed of all fields of study. At postgraduate level most of its customers share a common background and motivation to study — they are veterinary science graduates and practitioners using further study to upgrade or specialise within their chosen field. Professional development and the upgrade of skills are highly regarded in this field and postgraduate study may contribute to ongoing education requirements for professional membership. A high proportion of this small group is undertaking research. Areas of specialisation may include tropical animal science, animal genetics, diagnostic imagery, nutrition, equine or avian health. For information about what graduates of various institutions think of their programs and about careers and career prospects, see details below.

Medicine in Australia
What you're in for:
Do you pale at the sight of blood? Like being around people who are sick and injured? Care a lot about health and well-being? We ask you these questions because too many young people choose medicine without realising that they are also choosing to be doctors (almost all medicine graduates go on to work as doctors). And if they do think about their future occupation, they tend to concentrate on social status and money, not on the long hours and huge workload doctors undertake. Many seem to choose medicine because it has a high entry score and so do they. This is a silly reason. If you’re thinking about medicine, the first piece of advice is: find out about the working lives of doctors. The best way to do that is to go and talk to some. Ask them about the future of the profession as well as their daily work. It’s not always an adrenalin-fuelled life-saving exercise in the emergency room as some TV series would have you believe. Many GPs are battling away in the suburbs like any other small business person in a competitive industry. If you want to be a specialist, the financial rewards are greater, but you have to study for years, often until well into your 30s. Plus, with a growing culture of litigation making medical indemnity a hot issue in some specialisations, many have wondered if it’s worth it.
The second piece of advice: find out what medicine courses are like. While in past years, medical graduates have been generally cold about their experience, (and still report fairly low levels of satisfaction with the teaching quality), the overall satisfaction rating of graduates increased to average (see below). And with several new medical schools opening in the last few years, new students can probably expect to find out that a little healthy competition does nothing to harm course and teaching quality. The addition of new schools has indeed diversified course offerings in this field. Some of the new courses are focused on rural or community-based practice. An increasing number are designed for graduates. This brings us to the third piece of advice: consider doing a first degree in something else and then going on to one of the four-year graduate courses. Flinders took its first crop of graduate entrants at the beginning of 1996, with UQ and Sydney following in 1997. All three now have compulsory graduate entry. Several new courses are sticking with the graduate-entry formula including ANU, Griffith, and Notre Dame. The first degree can usually be in any field but is often in a branch of science or health science. Entry requirements are broader and include performance on GAMSAT, a special test, an interview and the results of the undergraduate degree. Doing another degree may broaden your outlook and give you a chance to make a mature decision about getting into a tough field, but on the other hand, it may take you even longer if you do end up a doctor (remember, ten years or more of study will not suit everyone!). But if course length is not a problem, you might look into doing a combined degree (medicine/law, for example).
As you will know by now, it is very tough to get into this field. Entry to most undergraduate courses requires you to complete the UMAT (Undergraduate Medicine and Health Sciences Admission Test) and many also require an interview. (Note: an increase in federal government funding for studies in medicine was announced in the May 2007 budget. At the time of publication, it is not known whether this will result in any change in CSP rates for relevant courses.)
If you are interested in medicine, you should also consider other health-related courses. Look into dentistry, nursing, vet science, and perhaps psychology. You may also like to consider the rapidly increasing number of courses in ‘alternative’ approaches to medicine including Chinese medicine, herbal medicine, or naturopathy. Consult the profile of the health services and support field of study for more information about related options.

What’s happening?
The excellent employment rate among graduates indicates that we are far from producing an oversupply of doctors. Indeed, the growing trend in all health education — particularly in medicine — towards rurally-focused programs reflects the chronic undersupply of doctors and other health professionals in these areas. Shortages are not confined to rural communities, however. In the last two years, new medical schools and additional medical places have been added around the country in an effort to forestall future shortages. However, there is still some concern among leaders in the profession about the capacity of hospitals and clinics to cater to the clinical training needs of additional students/graduates.
Although medical degrees have existed for graduates for some years, a degree structure following the US-style model (students enter a general pre-medical degree in science, health or applied science and then transfer to a postgraduate qualification in medicine) is likely to become more common for undergraduates.
On average, how tough is it to get into Medicine courses?
Very Tough

The national Course Experience Questionnaire survey indicates that medical graduates give their overall experience as students average ratings, but are even less enamoured with the standards of teaching they encounter. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the new graduate courses are educationally the more successful. Although medical graduates have very high starting salaries and virtually zero unemployment, this is not the life for everyone. Interns work such long hours that their $51 850 can average out to a meagre sum. Having studied for six years or so they’re also older than other graduates and have been on student money for a longer period of time.

Medicine in Australia
What you're in for
This is one of a handful of fields that are very well-established, have small numbers of programs and students, and are designed for members of an enclosed profession with well-defined career paths. As such, there have typically been few opportunities for graduates from other disciplines in postgraduate medicine programs. However, in the last few years there has been a rush of new graduate entry bachelor degrees introduced around the country opening up a pathway for career conversion. As always, there is also a high proportion of postgraduates pursuing research. For information about what graduates of various institutions think of their programs and about careers and career prospects, see details below. If you are not a doctor yet but you are considering changing careers, you might also look at other health fields such as psychology and perhaps rehabilitation, health services and support, and nursing.
