This data needs to be thoroughly analyzed for better comparisons. For example, an earlier epi study that compared pay gap for all professions suggested a decrease in pay gap from 0.79 to 0.95 taking variables such as, experience, education, location, type of job and more. In the same way, we might see a similar reduction in pay gap while comparing physicians salary taking above factors into account. This gap could certainly get magnified considering that there are two times licensed male physicians compared to female physicians in US. Further, female physicians tend to align their focus more towards family practice compared to a wider distribution in the type of practice for male physicians. Social Factors such as, race, and moral factors such as, honesty will also come into play. This suggestion is not to imply that there is not a gender based pay gap, but more to find the real pay gap.

By the way, another question that I would like to repeat is why should physicians be paid a lot more than many other professions, when many of the research findings included efforts from scientists, engineers and nurses?

Here is an interesting article on Wilheim Reich.

Here is an interesting article on Wilheim Reich. Wilheim Reich, born in Dobrianychi (part of Ukraine now), was an Austrian Psychiatrist known for his unusual experiments that he had tested between the years 1930s to 1950s. His actions and experiments, though questionable at times, dealt with many unknowns not easily perceived by many. Over time his actions also drew attention and resistance then from the US government. An immigrant psychiatrist who was brought in to US after seeing Freudian methods doing wonders in the battlefield was later considered mentally incompetent, and then was also sentenced for spreading false claims on his inventions that included his cloudbuster technology. Could this story be written differently? Many times, in such instances, it is a combination of factors. Considering Dr. Reich's diverse background, he could have seen, observed, and perceived things beyond what the majority could have. Moreover, for a private individual, who explored broad range of ...

We have the following set of questions pertaining to Google+ content Migration:

We have the following set of questions pertaining to Google+ content Migration: 1. We have submitted a request for download of Google+ content as before through Google Accounts. We never needed to migrate the content unlike this time. If we were to migrate the zip file that is generated in html format to another server, would we need to do anything different to make all the content go live in the new server? Would the display, design, and content be presented in the same form? 2. We have an extensive collection of communities that we own, primarily developed by our company, but all the content is public. We don't see any of those communities, except for two at the time of migration. For that matter, those communities are not even displayed on some of the devices, except for android smartphones. How could we retrieve those data? As we utilize other types of devices and platforms for migration, we would like to get access to those content even in those devices. Would these data be pa...
