I'm surprised that I've only seen this twice on my friendslist so far today, and that it wasn't in today's newspaper:
Potential HIV Cure Discovered.
It's still too early to tell, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed that it works...
(Thanks to
esprix and
omahastar for posting links.)
On a somewhat lighter note... Space's movie lineup doesn't seem to have improved much despite the new "CTV Globe Media" logo they showed earlier tonight (though maybe that was part of the Dresden Files credits - I'm not sure if the sale has gone through yet). Laserhawk has to be one of the worst movies it's ever been my misfortune to have seen:
Teenagers in a mid-west town discover that they are destined to fight off an alien invasion as the crew of a spacecraft of unknown origin. They are aided by a mysterious patient in a psychiatric hospital and a frenetic comic book artist. Stars Jason James Richter, Melissa Galianos and Mark Hamill.
Funnily enough, this is the first time I've ever seen this on IMDb:
Plot Synopsis: This plot synopsis is empty. Add a synopsis
Very telling. (And what's with that title, anyway? So far as I could tell, the movie had nothing to do with either lasers or hawks...)
I only left the channel on because I was doing Fraser Simpson's Canada Day Cryptic Crossword in the newspaper (which I finished in about two hours, btw... now I have to remember to mail it in to be eligible for a prize, which I probably won't be eligible for because I actually know Fraser - I used to play Scrabble with him on Friday nights).
Oh, and since it's after midnight... Happy Canada Day, everyone! *shoots off fireworks*
