Sounds like a pretty interesting theory to me!

Annyywayys. From my understanding of the article, the proposed treatment uses a modified virus that use the machinery of cells to create mimic receptors that would bind onto the virus and render it inert. So this isn't a traditional "Vaccine" where it would use attenuated viruses to stimulate the body to produce antibodies against the real thing. I wanted to know how long the protection last and whether or not that if you were exposed while on the treatment would infection still happens after the effects wore off. My thought on this was that what if we were able to simply produce the mimic receptors with out the use of virus?

Not a modified virus; a completely new virus that they just created for this treatment. The only thing that is carried within is the DNA for the modified compound that binds to the HIV Virus. This is a Recombinant Vector Vaccine.

The article states that the recombinant vector is injected into muscle tissue which is then used to replicate the modified compound. If that's the case, then the the vaccine would last as long as the muscle did. Skeletal muscle generally last about 15 years. After the modified protein has bonded to the virus, it would relatively be inert meaning the immune system would remove it or the kidneys would be able to filter it from the blood easily. You wouldn't be infected by the virus later on.

I've unfortunately seen the separation between the genders firsthand. It's one of the sad facts of the glbt community that we have opposite interests when it comes to attraction and that can often leave us separated. That's why we've pushed hard to keep that kind of content out of Stonewall and to make sure it's a welcoming place for all genders.

In Queer History this is very evident. After the Stonewall Riots, cooperation between gays and lesbians began to break down. Many male leaders were very sexist and pushed lesbians out of the leadership. We didn't really come back together till the AIDS Crisis.

Sent! Goodness, I'm nervous now that a pro will be checking it out. Please don't mock me. lol

It can hold it's own in elites, packs a nifty punch and is a hard nut to crack.

Yes! I've been learning Javascript myself.

I feel that I have a basic understanding of HTML, but CSS is something that I could definitely use some more info on. I would probably join ya!

As someone who's helped you with the BBCode more than once, I can tell you, no, you don't. You need a course on HTML.

Jacien,
So many changes!! I am still trying to come to terms with how much this game has changed since day 1 release.. I only wish i could remember my day one user information **chuckles**

Philip

Count me in! :silly:

Refresher are good. :laugh:

Welcome back! Life does tend to throw us some challenges. Glad you have some time to enjoy STO with us again. See you among the stars.

I am interested! :)

Would anyone be interested in learning some basic HTML? I've been thinking about hosting a tutorial where I'd give a brief overview about HTML and people can ask questions, just wondering if there's any real interest.

I'd start out with HTML and if people were still interested we could move on to CSS and some JavaScript in later sessions.

correction I did not delete my main.. I just have not have played him in some time as I do not like how he is set up. Played with him some this evening. and Meh..

Howdy Fleeters!
Been some time since I have been around the fleet however, I am now back and working on some new characters (silly me deleted my old persona).
I have really missed you and I am glad that I am getting some time (at least for now) to play in world.. Life, College, and work caught up with me and now that I am heading into my final months of my BA in Psychology it is time to get back into the swing of things.
If you see me around send a holler.

Luv

Philip
