Soy Appears To Lower Cholesterol And Blood Sugar Levels, Aid Weight Lo
The labels in the snack food aisle promise low-fat, no-fat, low-cal and low-carb tasty treats. But what really makes a food healthy? And should we believe the commercial hype about soy products and our health?

Synergy between two types of de-worming drugs found promising in a lab
Combining two types of anti-worm treatments that work in different ways could head off the development of drug resistance and save money by allowing lower doses of both drugs to be used.

Hormone Therapy Should Not Be Stopped Prior To Mammograms, Researchers
Researchers are recommending that menopausal women on hormone therapy continue their treatment prior to having their annual mammogram screenings.

Genome Mapping Yields Clues About Cattle Disease
Researchers are developing a biological map of how three tiny pathogens cause big losses for cattle producers each year. Using a newly developed technique called proteogenomic mapping, they have overcome the limitations inherent in computer modeling. They are using mass spectrometers to identify protein amino acid sequences and map them back onto the genome DNA sequences.

A Walk Along An Interface Yields Its Mobility
In the Oct. 27 issue of Science, researchers at Colorado School of Mines and Northeastern University report a novel computational methodology aimed at quantifying the kinetics of interfaces in diverse material systems. The paper, titled "Interface Mobility from Interface Random Walk,"addresses computational issues in extracting interface kinetic parameters under experimentally relevant conditions.

[Funny] A referee has sent himself off in an English amateur league ma
Andy Wain had to abandon the Sunday league match between Peterborough North End and a Royal Mail side in the 63rd minute after throwing down his whistle and marching up to confront North End's keeper.

Armenian National Institute
This nonprofit organization is "dedicated to the study, research, and affirmation of the Armenian Genocide."This searchable site's extensive resources include affirmation resolutions and declarations, official documents (including the 1920 Treaty of Sevres), a database of memorials (searchable and browsable), bibliographies, and instructional materials. Photos and maps complement the written research and educational materials.

Based On Body Size, Bacteria And Elephants Have Similar Metabolism, Ec
Life scientists have long maintained that, based on body size, small organisms are more metabolically active than large organisms. But a new study led by an ecologist at UC Riverside shows that this is true only for organisms that are closely related evolutionarily and have body masses differing by no more than 6-7 orders of magnitude -- about the difference in body mass between an elephant and a shrew.

Male Sabertoothed Cats Were Pussycats Compared To Macho Lions
Despite their fearsome fangs, male sabertoothed cats may have been less aggressive than many of their feline cousins, says a new study of male-female size differences in extinct big cats.

Researchers 'Notch' A Victory Toward New Kind Of Cancer Drug
Scientists have devised an innovative way to disarm a key protein considered to be "undruggable," meaning that all previous efforts to develop a drug against it have failed. Their discovery lays the foundation for a new kind of therapy aimed directly at a critical human protein -- one of a few thousand so-called transcription factors -- that could someday be used to treat a variety of diseases, especially multiple types of cancer.
