Base attack kills 3 Afghans, destroys NATO chopper

KABUL, Afghanistan (AP) ? Afghan insurgents bombarded a U.S. base and destroyed a NATO helicopter, killing three Afghan intelligence employees, officials said Tuesday. The coalition said there were also NATO personnel on board who were wounded, without providing further details.

Separately, a teenage suicide bomber on Tuesday walked into a shop in western Afghanistan and blew himself up, killing five people, Afghan officials said.

The bombing and the strike at Bagram Air Field outside Kabul came as U.S. and its allied military forces marked the 11th anniversary of the Sept. 11, 2001, terror attacks with a tribute to the more than 3,000 foreign troops killed since the invasion of Afghanistan ? including about 2,000 members of the U.S. military.

The attacks were a reminder that the Afghan war launched less than a month after 9/11 continues to rage, with insurgents waging a ceaseless campaign against the U.S.-led NATO coalition and the Afghan government.

"Eleven years on from that day there should be no doubt that our dedication to this commitment, that commitment that was seared into our souls that day so long ago, remains strong and unshaken, " said Marine Gen John Allen, the top commander of U.S. and coalition troops, at a ceremony at NATO's Kabul headquarters.

"Today we remember the victims here in Afghanistan who have suffered so horribly at the hands of al-Qaida and the Taliban and other terrorists," he said. "Perhaps more significant to all of us at this ceremony, today we remember the precious soldiers and civilians of all nations lost in Afghanistan since that day of infamy in 2001."

After the short ceremony, he swore in eight members of the U.S. military who decided to re-enlist on the anniversary of the attacks.

"I think it is a great honor to be able to re-enlist on September 11," said SFC Isaac D. Engle, 30, from Salem, Oregon. A member of the Oregon National Guard, the 10-year veteran was heading home in less than a week after serving a year in Afghanistan.

Engle, who also served in Iraq from 2004 to 2005, said that the "chance to extend and serve my country and state for another three years, and the chance to do this on September 11, means more to me than I can describe."

The attack on the sprawling Bagram Air Field occurred around 10 p.m. Monday. Militants occasionally fire mortars or rockets at Bagram, but the attacks usually cause little or no damage.

The Taliban claimed responsibility for the attack.

"Four rounds hit," coalition spokesman Army Maj. Adam Wojack said, adding that it was unclear whether they were rockets or mortars. "One of the rounds hit the helicopter and started a fire, which destroyed it."

Both Afghan and coalition forces were inside the Chinook CH47 when it was hit, he said. Wojack said the three Afghans died and an unspecified number of coalition troops were wounded, but NATO policy prevented him from disclosing details about their injuries. There were no details available on how many were aboard or what they were doing there. Several countries in NATO fly Chinooks.

An Afghan government official in Parwan province where the base is located confirmed that three Afghan intelligence employees were killed. The official, speaking on condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to disclose information to the media, said two Afghan policemen were injured in the attack.

Taliban spokesman Zabiullah Mujahid said in a statement that the insurgents had fired rockets, and the strike killed nine Afghan intelligence workers and four Americans at the base. However, the insurgents often exaggerate the death toll of their attacks.

In an attack last month on Bagram, an insurgent rocket damaged a top U.S. general's plane that was parked on the tarmac. The Taliban also claimed responsibility for that attack on the C-17 transport plane, which had flown U.S. Army Gen. Martin Dempsey, the chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, to Bagram.

Dempsey was in his staff quarters when the rockets landed and was not hurt in the attack, but the damage to his plane forced him to use another aircraft for his ongoing flight to Iraq.

Two aircraft maintenance workers were lightly wounded by shrapnel, and a nearby helicopter was damaged.

Meanwhile, the suicide bombing Tuesday took place in Kushki Kuhna district of Herat province, said Noor Khan Nikzad, a spokesman for the provincial police chief. The province in western Afghanistan is one of the more peaceful areas of the country but it has been the scene of a rising number of attacks in recent years.

The target of the attack was Abdul Hakim, a community leader who commanded a local militia, according to Mohammad Ibrahim Kushki, the former top official in the district.

"The bomber was around 14 years old," he said. "He went to the shop, shook hands with Hakim and then blew himself up."

Dorothy McGuire of McGuire Sisters dies

By Reuters

Singer Dorothy McGuire, who with her two sisters made dozens of hit records in the 1950s and 1960s, has died in Arizona, her son said on Sunday.

Dorothy, right, was joined by her sisters Christine, left, and Phyllis at the opening of the World of Coca-Cola in Las Vegas on July 7, 1997.

McGuire, 84, died on Friday at her home in Paradise Valley, Arizona, her son Rex Williamson told Reuters. She had suffered for some time from Parkinson's disease, he said.

Dorothy McGuire was the middle sister of The McGuire Sisters - Christine, Phyllis and Dorothy - who had hits with "Goodnite, Sweetheart, Goodnite," "Sincerely" and "Sugartime" and were often compared to their 1940s predecessors, The Andrews Sisters.

They began their careers as children, singing in their Miamisburg, Ohio, church and later at hospitals and military bases before singing a record deal in 1952.

Often dressed in identical outfits and hairstyles, they were frequent guests on television variety shows and they later performed for U.S. Presidents Richard Nixon, Gerald Ford, Jimmy Carter, Ronald Reagan and George H.W. Bush.

Some 18 years after they retired in 1968, they reunited and played the hotel and nightclub circuit in Las Vegas and New York until the mid-1990s. The McGuire Sisters were inducted in the National Broadcasting Hall of Fame in 1994.

New genetic mechanism for controlling blood cell development and blood vessel integrity found

ScienceDaily (Sep. 10, 2012) ? The protein GATA2 is known as a "master regulator" of blood cell development. When a mutation occurs in the gene that makes GATA2, serious blood diseases such as acute myeloid leukemia can result.

Zooming in on the GATA2 gene, UW-Madison researchers and their collaborators at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) have discovered unexpectedly that a small DNA sequence drives this powerful master regulator. The sequence plays an essential role in controlling GATA2 production and generating self-renewing blood stem cells responsible for the earliest steps in the development of blood cells of all kinds -- red cells to transport oxygen and white cells to fight infection.

The researchers also found that the DNA sequence, which they call the +9.5 GATA2 switch site, ensures that blood vessels function properly to prevent hemorrhaging. Until now, GATA2 had not been implicated in blood vessel integrity.

The study appears in The Journal of Clinical Investigation (online Sept. 10, 2012).

Although the study was performed in mice, it should have significant clinical relevance, particularly to physicians and scientists aiming to understand certain types of leukemia and related disorders involving disruptions in the blood and immune systems. The research indicates that downstream genes are impacted when the switch site is altered, leading to abnormal development of the adult blood system, says senior author Dr. Emery Bresnick, professor of cell and regenerative biology at the School of Medicine and Public Health.

"There's every reason to believe that we can use these findings as a foundation to discover key factors and signals that can be modulated therapeutically for the treatment of specific blood and blood vessel disorders," he says.

Bresnick has studied GATA proteins for more than a decade. Among other things, his team discovered five "hot spots" on the GATA2 gene where special activity involving both GATA1 and GATA2 appeared to be taking place. They named these GATA switch sites. Over the last four years, the group has focused on their third GATA2 switch site, +9.5, a small sequence of about 25 base pairs located in a region of the gene called the intron.

"While introns can contain regulatory sequences that control gene activity, until now we and others have been unable to find the mechanisms that control the GATA2 gene, despite years of studying this problem," Bresnick says.

Senior scientist Dr. Kirby Johnson from the Bresnick laboratory led experimental efforts to genetically engineer and breed mice in which the site was knocked out, and then studied the consequences of the mutation.

Without the sequence, the embryos died on day 14, but before that they developed massive hemorrhaging. Closer analysis showed that large veins in the embryo leaked embryonic red blood cells.

"We knew GATA2 was expressed in endothelial cells that line blood vessels, but we didn't know what it was doing there," Bresnick says. "Now we have identified examples in which the endothelial lining of large veins in the embryos was discontinuous."

While it was obvious from the hemorrhaging that the knock-out mice could still produce embryonic red blood cells very early in development, it was not clear if this capability continued later in development to produce the diverse array of adult blood cells. So the UW team turned its attention to stem cells and progenitor cells in the embryonic yolk sac and fetal liver, where blood production, or hematopoeisis, takes place.

Using a robust test for progenitor cells, they found that activity was not compromised in the yolk sac, which provides embryonic red blood cells to the early embryo, but defects were seen later in development in the fetal liver, a major site of blood stem and progenitor cell production.

"We were grateful to be able to collaborate with Dr. Jing Zhang, a stem cell scientist based at UW's McArdle Laboratory for Cancer Research who routinely studies hematopoietic stem cell activity using the 'gold standard' approach of cell transplantation," Bresnick says.

Zhang analyzed the fetal liver compartment and found that stem cells were completely missing.

"These assays informed us that the +9.5 switch site is absolutely required for GATA2 to be expressed in the fetal liver and for the establishment and/or maintenance of hematopoietic stem cells," Bresnick says.

Although the UW team's analyses were performed using mouse models, Bresnick's NIH collaborators identified the same switch site mutation in a patient with MonoMAC syndrome, a rare immunodeficiency disease characterized by blood and immune cell disorders and increased susceptibility to mycobacterial disease, warts and certain cancers. The syndrome typically is caused by a mutation in the gene coding region of GATA2. A number of people with MonoMAC syndrome are enrolled in clinical studies overseen by Dr. Steven Holland, chief of the Laboratory of Clinical Infectious Diseases at the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Disease, part of the NIH.

After identifying four people with MonoMAC syndrome who lacked the usual mutation, Amy Hsu, an investigator in Holland's laboratory, sequenced the +9.5 GATA2 switch site in the patients. She found that one of them had a deletion in the switch site that caused blood vessel disorders in the mice from Bresnick's laboratory.

"Given the importance of GATA2 for controlling blood cell development, I was not surprised that alterations in any portion of the GATA2 gene would be linked to a blood disorder," Bresnick says. "But finding that the small +9.5 sequence we discovered was disrupted in the human disease MonoMAC was quite striking."

It may be the only example in which a small DNA disruption in a regulatory region of a gene produces such a profound effect as eliminating adult stem cells, he adds.

"We feel that the +9.5 sequence's ability to produce stem cells, combined with its critical role in conferring blood vessel integrity, has earned it the description of a master regulatory GATA switch site," he says.

In addition to Johnson, Holland, Zhang and Hsu, other co-authors who contributed to the work include Myung-Jeom Ryu and Jinyong Wang from the Zhang laboratory, Xin Gao and Meghan E. Boyer from the Bresnick laboratory, and additional UW-Madison collaborators Youngsook Lee and Sunduz Keles.

    Law of Attraction Subliminal Success

    Law of Attraction Subliminal Success

    http://www.manifestwealthmentor.com/subliminals.php - Use Subliminal Audio To Multiply Your Money Attraction Results Have you used subliminal audio to attract money into your life? Perhaps you have used subliminal messaging for success in some areas of your life but nonetheless can't quite appreciate how money attraction works? It Will not Do This Like a great many other areas of development when using subliminals it is important to note that you'll most likely not wake up with a mysterious check in the mail the morning after using a money attraction subliminal. There are a lot of stories about people receiving mysterious checks through the mail or coming into massive sums of money out of the blue - either when listening to subliminals, or when using some sort of tool to help them with the law of attraction. This sadly is rare, and is the exception, rather than the standard result. The truth is money attraction is more of a gradual process, and works better in a couple of days and a few weeks than the instant you start out listening. How It Actually Works Again subliminal audio is a gradual process and is designed to change your thoughts and beliefs about money and align your subconscious mind to focus on bringing money into your life. This occurs naturally, and can not be forced.This is why it requires different amounts of time for everyone - many people have a lot more anxieties and mental blockages about money and this accordingly takes longer for them to really shed them and focus on money in a constructive way. It works in 3 simple ways: To focus you on money in a positive way and really make you more determined than ever before to bring money by the bucket load into your life. To align your subconscious mind completely to your money attraction goals. Your whole mind and body will be completely aligned on bringing money into your life - making it much more likely to occur. Ultimately it will align your mind fully so that you believe in the law of attraction 100%. You will totally believe that it is possible for YOU to bring money into your life through the power of your thoughts. Only when you really believe this does it actually become possible. Get started today using the world's most powerful attract money audio album from http://www.manifestwealthmentor.com/subliminals.php

Featured speakers have included Al Gore on climate change, Philippe Starck on design, Jill Bolte Taylor on observing her own stroke, Nicholas Negroponte on One Laptop per Child, Jane Goodall on chimpanzees, Bill Gates on malaria and mosquitoes, Pattie Maes on the "Sixth Sense" wearable tech, and "Lost" producer JJ Abrams on the allure of mystery. TED stands for Technology, Entertainment, Design, and TEDTalks cover these topics as well as science, business, development and the arts.
