would a vaccine for hiv also possibly be able to cure it?

It seems that all the types of things that are supposed to be probable vaccines against hiv actually improve the killing of the virus but not prevent it. For example the novel vaccine for hiv which is chemically enhanced dendritic cells taken from the person and it improves the killing of the virus but does not prevent it.

Does anyone think that an hiv vaccine would also theoretically have to be a cure?

Time traveling?

I know that if you go really fast, the faster you go, the slower time progresses, and as you approach the speed of light, things completely stop. If you continue to go, faster than the speed of light, you will go back in time. But is there a way to go forward in time?

Is there any mathematical logic behind the colors of the Google Logo?

The fact is that Google loves numbers:

Google is named after a Googol, which is a 1 followed by 100 zeros. They didn't use the original spelling because someone made a mistake, which was fortuitous since googol.com was taken, but google.com was available.

Google's buildings are numbered 0, 1, e, pi, and phi; all of which have mathematical significance.

Google's first IPO raised $2,718,281,828, which is the product of "e" and $1 billion, where "e" is the base of the natural logarithm.

For their second public offering Google will sell 14,159,265 shares, which is the first 8 digits after the decimal point in pi (3.14159265)

How did they decide which colors to pick for the logo? Just a random pick?
