...better-than-expected results by knocking out samples of all major flu types in five different species of lab animals, according to a report in the latest issue of the Journal of the American Chemical Society. GS 4104 contains the infection by preventing newly-formed viruses from leaving the host cell. But don't expect to be able to take a pill to get rid of the flu anytime soon.

...almost as many jokes as his. And now, Clark--who just last week officially resigned from the Los Angeles County district attorney's office and has almost, almost finished up Without a Doubt, the book for which she was paid a reported $4.2 million--has been chosen as host of LadyLaw, a new TV show. The "reality-based" program--meaning a show that uses really bad actors--is made by the people who brought us Rescue 911 (hosted by Shatner), and will be offered to TV buyers next week. The premise: to follow the stories of all sorts of women...
