Cuckoo Clocks From Switzerland

25 March 2008

The chalet style of cuckoo clocks originated in Switzerland at the end of the nineteenth century, when they were valued highly as Swiss souvenirs. The chalet style is further sub-classified into three different styles, the Black Forest chalet, the Swiss chalet and the Bavarian chalet cuckoo clock. All these style include a cabin and figurines coming out of the cabin at every hour. Some models have even little dolls or angels coming out of the cabin instead of the traditional cuckoo bird. Another development is the introduction of musical notes into the cuckoo clock, instead of the old cuk-coo sound of the bird. The unique feature of chalet cuckoo clocks is that they generally come in brighter colors than the traditional cuckoo clocks; hence they are preferred more than the conventional cuckoo clocks.

Some schools are alleged to place high on the rankings only because they discourage students who will not likely make it or because their curriculum is geared towards making students that pass tests, rather than towards making doctors that would perform admirably in the field. Remember that your actual competence will count for much more than the med school you enrolled in.
