When the participants were hypnotized and re-exposed to the thermodes, all 12 reported feeling significantly reduced pain (with ratings of 3 or lower) or no pain...
...differences in the subjects' brain scans were equally striking. The typical pain signal follows a well-worn path from the brain stem through the midbrain and into the cortex, where conscious feelings of pain arise. In Schulz-Stübner's study, the hypnotized group showed subcortical brain activity similar to that of nonhypnotized volunteers, but the primary sensory cortex stayed quiet. The "ouch" message wasn't making it past the midbrain and into consciousness...

...best result for the nordic team this year, placing 27th with a time of 1:02:51.3. The women also had some exciting performances. Junior Jennifer Harlow finished a solid 33rd in the Women’s 5K classic with a time of 17:24.8, and freshman Anna Schulz finished 52nd with a time of 19:16.1. “This is our best showing in terms of total point production,” said Crimson nordic coach Peter Graves. “Everybody rose to the occasion, which is great because it’s the last event...
...squad that finished 11th in that event. For the men, freshman Dave McCahill recorded the top time, finishing 61st in 29:25.2. He was followed by freshman Clem Wright at 74th and sophomore Oliver Burruss in 82nd. The relay team, made up of McCahill, Harlow, Burruss, and freshman Anna Schulz, finished 40th with a time of 46:59.2. On the Alpine side, junior Katie Connor’s effort of 1:23.47 was good enough for 41st in the giant slalom, while her combined 2:18.41 landed her in 42nd in the slalom. Nipping at her heels in both events...
