Two more people have died in San Antonio, Texas, hours after police found
eight dead, including two school-age children, and dozens more seriously ill
early Sunday morning in a sweltering tractor trailer parked outside a
Walmart.
In what police are calling a horrific immigration smuggling case gone wrong,
nearly 40 people were found in the stifling tractor trailer. Survivors
later told investigators up to 100 people were packed into the truck at one
point, the Associated Press reports.

来自主题: MedicalCareer版 - 理想的代价
很赞同你的非常practical的处事态度,还有一些很好的谦虚宽容务实的做事方法,但
是“梦想是给对世界还没有清晰地认识,还在象牙塔里一点点筑就自己的人生观世界观
的孩子们用的”?无法苟同。好像梦想和幼稚甚至童话画上了等号了。
理想和目标差别也还很大吧?目标是step 1, step 2.. 理想更倾向是一种宗教式的信
仰。首先是相信,其次是为了相信的东西而努力,无论最终成功与否都是你所说的“光
荣”和值得骄傲的。生命只是一个过程,然而这个过程的意义会有不同。

German police say a motorcycle cop couldn't believe his eyes when he saw
four men, including the driver, splashing about in the open-top BMW as they
passed him on Sunday afternoon near Blauenthal, about 155 miles south of
