Keeping up to date
Sep. 28th, 2005 04:30 pmI was just wondering, talking to a friend of mine about health issues and what not: Are there good sites to keep up on news such as immunosuppression as it pertains to SRS? I know it's not something that is currently possible, taking one reproductive system from one person and implanting it in another no matter how much hormone therapy either person has had, and not having their body reject the new organs, but I know that people are working on it. I know I'm not the best at keeping track of this, but are there good places to keep up on it and related medical research? Just thought I'd ask.
Film Festival Back... And Bigger Than Ever!
(Royal Oak)-Triangle Foundation and the Reel Pride Michigan Host Committee are proud to announce the highlights for the fourth edition of REEL PRIDE MICHIGAN, the state's largest Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender (GLBT) and allied film festival.
Reel Pride Michigan is scheduled for October 21 - 28, 2005 at the Main Art Theatre, located at 118 North Main Street, Royal Oak, Michigan, 48067, and promises to be yet another festival filled with films that celebrate the love, lives and diversity of the GLBT and allied community.
Over the eight-day festival, Reel Pride Michigan will play host to 22 screenings, over 50 films, and an Opening Night Gala, a Closing Night Extravaganza, a Sunday Brunch, after parties, and several guest star-studded events. There will be an amazing Youth Series, with two free films for youth 21 and under and a youth afterparty, panel discussions, Q&A's, and opportunities to meet directors and stars from select films.
Among the highlights of this festival is the opening night Gala on Friday October 21, at 8:00 pm featuring the exciting THE MOSTLY UNFABULOUS SOCIAL LIFE OF ETHAN GREEN. This opening feature introduces us to Ethan Green (Daniel Letterle) who has been playing the dating game all his life but after meeting a professional baseball player he may just have hit a home run. Join the famous Hat Sisters (Joel Brook from Office Space and Richard Riehle) and stars from Camp and Dawson’s Creek for this zany, comic star-filled feature of the festival. The evening continues at a private reception following the film to mingle with the stars.
But wait - the Opening Night Gala is just the beginning! Reel Pride Michigan is packed with some of this year's most dynamic films including: the sexy and alluring SUMMER STORM; the controversial STRANGE FRUIT, a suspense-filled thriller that also looks at the strains of being gay and African-American; multi-award winning TRANSAMERICA with Felicity Huffman from Desperate Housewives; HATE CRIME the story which identifies with the work of the Triangle Foundation; and the rivoting documentary SAINTS & SINNERS in which a gay couple and their supporters stand up to the Catholic Church. Closing Night is sure to please with LEFT LANE: ON THE ROAD WITH FOLK POET ALIX OLSON, a true story of Alix Olson and her fiery spoken-word poetry. The Closing Night Extravaganza and Afterparty includes Alix Olson and the film’s director Samantha Farinella!
