Asahi.com is reporting that a new drug blocks HIV from entering other cells. Unlike other drugs designed to combat HIV/AIDs this one uses human cells to block out the attacking badness. This drug may need more testing, but this approach to the issue is not one I’ve heard of before (but comes as no surprise).

Yellow = Green
New York City yellow cabs are going green. They were having some problems with government red tape, but that seems all cleared up now. The cabs will be converted into hybrid cars to ensure much better fuel efficiency. Apparently 7 out 10 New York state citizens support a switch to hybrid vehicles.
Hopefully this will pave the way for more and more cars turning into green machines.
