Just a quick reminder that tomorrow night is Wild Card Game Night! Bring a board or card game and come play!
Game night: teen tested, library approved! (… or should that be the other way around? hmmm …)

Cure for HIV? Perhaps not, but interesting reading nonetheless.
“Stem Cell Transplant Has Cured HIV Infection in ‘Berlin Patient,’ Say Doctors”
Seriously?!
But then, “If AIDS Has Been Cured, Why Is the Victory Party So Small?”
So not necessarily the most viable of therapies, but still a victory, and perhaps an interesting avenue of research.

The Bizarre and True Connection between Flying Mammals and Martinis Revealed!
Have you ever heard of the “cocktail party effect”? It’s how, even in a very noisy environment with lots of people speaking, we’re able to pick out and listen to one particular voice and tune out the rest. Scientists don’t know how we do it, but they’re studying bats to find out!
This weird science moment was brought to you by the letters “B” for bat and “N” for noise.
