Hanford Radioactivity In Salmon Spawning Grounds, Government Accountability Project, Norm Buske

Government Accountability Project (GAP)

The public has expressed concern that radioactivity from Hanford’s wartime nuclear weapons production might contaminate salmon spawning grounds in the Columbia River. Salmon hatchlings (alevin) grow among the gravels in the riverbed, where they are susceptible to environmental stresses that include toxic chemicals and radioactivity. Some people worry that radioactivity from Hanford will damage the alevin genetically and slowly reduce the strength of the salmon stock.

In 2001, The RadioActivist Campaign (TRAC) found a radioactive fingerprint (europium-152) of old Hanford nuclear waste in 60% of sediments lying under the Hanford Reach and in 7 of 10 major salmon spawning areas. …

Ole Miss Dietician Advises Exercise For Healthy Mind & Body, Deborah Purnell

University of Mississippi News

UNIVERSITY, Miss. – Weight gain -- that's one year-end holiday tradition most of us could live without. Although it's been widely reported that the average American gains five or more pounds during the holiday season, a recent National Institutes of Health study found that those reports are widely exaggerated. So, why all the hoopla? According to Sharon Boon, fitness coordinator at The University of Mississippi (UM), the trouble isn't necessarily the number of pounds put on but the trouble with losing them.

Manipulation Of Prenatal Hormones And Dietary Phytoestrogens During Adulthood Alter The Sexually Dimorphic Expression Of Visual Spatial Memory, Edwin D. Lephart, Trent D. Lund

Faculty Publications

In learning and memory tasks, requiring visual spatial memory (VSM), males exhibit higher performance levels compared to females (a difference attributed to sex steroid hormonal influences). Based upon the results from our companion investigation, this study examined the influence of prenatal sex steroid hormone manipulations on VSM in adulthood, as assessed in the radial arm maze. Additionally, the influence of dietary soy phytoestrogens (i.e., the presence of high or low estrogen-like compounds present in the animal's diet) on VSM was examined in combination with the prenatal hormonal manipulations. Results: Radial arm maze performance on a phytoestrogen-rich diet: 1) females treated …
