Prior
to Attack on U.S., U.S. Attack On Bin Laden Being Staged
American
officials, in mid-July, had informed a former Pakistani Foreign
Secretary that the U.S. would attack both Bin Laden and the
Taleban leader, Mullah Omar, by mid-October at the latest.
The
toppling of the Taleban regime was to result from the attack.
The only way to avoid the attack would have been the swift turnover
of Bin Laden.
Key
point - if this is true, is there a hell of a lot more that
the U.S. government and military aren't telling the American
people as pertains to the possible knowledge of attacks on or
attacks by forces tied to the Taleban?
Possible
staging points were Tajikistan and Uzbekistan (with the possible
aid of 17,000 Russian troops there).
With
those plans already in place, the Pakistani
Foreign Secretary projects that the U.S. attack will now come
within the next two to three weeks.

Glucose-Producer
Found - May Help Diabetics
The
molecular on-off switch that controls the production of blood
glucose has been found. The switch, a protein called PGC-1,
is fine-tuned in a non-diabetic to turn on when a person has
been fasting.
In
type 1 diabetics, no insulin is produced and the glucose switch
is constantly in the "on" position, leading to high
blood glucose levels if insulin isn't injected or pumped in
on a manually controlled basis.
The
discovery of the switch for glucose production may allow drugs
to be developed to reduce excessive glucose production in type
1 diabetics.

Gene
Therapy May Reduce Chance of Blindness
By
preventing overgrowth of blood vessels in the eyes, gene therapy
may some day be used to reduce the chance of blindness.
The
gene therapy may prevent the leading causes of blindness in
developed countries, diabetic retinopathy & macular degeneration.
Currently, laser treatments or surgery are used to treat these
conditions but the blood vessels tend to grow back.
