  CBS/AP  History was made Thursday evening as an FDA panel recommended approval of a drug that could prevent the spread of stanley usa  HIV, the virus that stanley cup  causes AIDS -- a disease that has killed 30 million people around the world. CBS News medical correspondent Dr. Jon LaPook looks into this latest development.The drug is called Truvada and is currently used as part of a cocktail of drugs to treat patients with HIV.

The Associated Press reported that the FDA is not required equired to follow the panel s advice, though itusually does. A final decision is expected by June 15.Dr. Robert Grant, of the University of California, San Francisco, led the research.  I think this is a huge milestone,  he said.  I think we are in an era for the first time when we can see the end of the AIDS epidemic. In Dr. Grant s study, more than 1,200 healthy gay men took Truvada. The drug reduced their risk of HIV infection by 44 percent. However, many participants failed to take the pill every day. For those who took it faithfully, protection from HIV was much greater. Among those who actually used the drug on a regular basis, the protection was much higher,  said Grant,  over 90 percent reduction in the rate of HIV infection.         Scott Owens was part of the study and has been taking the drug for four years.HIV pill may prevent people from contracting AIDS, says FDAVideo: HIV pr stanley website evention p Zsyn Today for gibbering chaos lunch, eat some Cthulhu pie!

 We ;ve only seen pictures of Daniel Radcliffe   bizarre role based on the protagonist of Joe Hill   novel Horns. In it, Radcliffe plays a man who wakes up one morning with a pair of growing horns in his head which grant him superpowers 鈥?superpowers he uses to get to the bottom o stanley thermosflasche f his girlfriend   brutal murder.     Of course the twist to this already strange story is that Radcliffe   character is  naturally  the main suspect for the case. Directed by Alexandre Aja, this is the very first clip stanley spain  of Radcliffe in horny action. It also showcases his American accent, which unfortunately sounds like a British person testing out their  8220 uper low American dialect.
