Aware of these concerns, Bedrosian says her team was rigorous in its statistical analysis and feels confident enough in the numbers to begin using the information to help patients decide whether a preventive mastectomy is right for them. "We looked at this in multiple different ways, and we got the same answer every time. And the results make good clinical sense. That adds another level of reassurance," she says. "Our hope is that when women hear the numbers, they will take a second look and decide not to go forward with a preventive mastectomy [in their healthy breast...
...Crimson fencing squads (9-6M, 11-6W) faced off against all three other Boston-area schools in a one-night marathon-style tournament. Harvard took home the two titles with some ease, as the men’s team defeated the Judges, the Engineers, and the Eagles with scores of 23-4, 19-8, and 19-8, respectively, while the women won all three matches as well...
...Though the U.S. didn't club the entire field on Wednesday, its team still sent a strong message to Europe, which has typically dominated Nordic combined: This sport is no longer yours. The day started out strongest for the Finns, who were counting on the event to increase their paltry medal tally. Finnish Olympic officials had set a goal of 12 medals for the country in Vancouver; to date, it has one.

...jumping competition, but broke down on the ground, finishing seventh in cross-country. (Norway, the patriarch of the sport, came in fifth.) In the afternoon, a steady snowfall turned the cross-county course into a postcard. American Brett Camerota, who at 25 is the youngest member of the U.S. team and supposedly its weak link, finished almost three seconds ahead of Finland's Ryynaenen in the first leg of the relay, giving the Americans the lead. American Todd Lodwick, making his fifth Olympic appearance, held it, but Austria slowly gained ground, and Felix Gottwald opened a 14-sec. gap against...
...Regardless, the sport more than made up for its oddness in entertainment during Wednesday's competition at Whistler Olympic Park. In the team event, four skiers from each of the 10 countries complete one jump in the morning. Their combined jumping scores determine their position for the afternoon 4-by-5-km cross-country relay. For example, on Wednesday, the Finns, who finished first in jumping, got a 2 sec. head start on the U.S., which finished second, and a 2 min. 19 sec. advantage over the Italians, who leapt like little bullfrogs and finished last in the jump. There...
