...placebos was a good way to deduce whether a patient had a "real" problem or was just faking it. In the current study, 80% of doctors disagreed with that statement. "That's a significant shift in doctors' thinking in a relatively short time," says lead author Rachel Sherman, a fourth-year medical student at the University of Chicago. Today, few doctors balk when patients say they have pain but show nothing abnormal in scans. "Physicians in this survey believe the mind and the body are inherently interconnected, and that belief can challenge our approach to the healing process...
After becoming just the fourth NFL team to finish the regular season undefeated, following Saturday's determined 38-35 comeback win against the New York Giants, New England has sewn up an astounding achievement. (The Pats are the first squad to finish a 16-game season undefeated.) It's even sweeter for the team because prior to this year, many experts thought Belichick was losing his touch.

...fifth seed Dan DeClore of Iowa in a close match in which the freshman fell short by a point. Jantzen then lost his next match by fall and forfeited the fifth place match by medical default, finishing sixth as a result. Junior co-captain Louis Caputo (184 lb.), seeded fourth, had a rough start to the tournament, losing by fall to Derek Ross of Nebraska-Kearny in just 51 seconds, banishing him to wrestlebacks. The veteran recovered, however, to record six straight victories over a two-day span, including a major decision and two technical falls. Caputo then faced third...
