...general, some of the primary care specialties will rise, and a few of the highly specialized surgical specialties may see a sharp drop in fees for their services," Hsiao said in an interview. "But the impact will not be uniform. Some specialties will not be affected very much...
...Olympic flame arrived on the exuberant arm of Sohn Kee Chung, 76. In 1936, a year of Japanese colonial rule, Korea's great marathoner sagged on the Berlin victory stand to be wearing the wrong uniform and hearing the wrong anthem. This time he fairly bounced around Seoul's stadium. Among those who helped shuttle the sparkler to Sohn were several American sportswriters who had misplaced their cynicism in the excitement of the city. At Inchon, John Jeansonne of New York's Newsday hit an invisible speed bump and took an incredible header, but with an Olympian effort kept...

...Olympian is distinguished from the garden-variety athlete, at least in the U.S., by a fairly uniform obscurity. Except for two weeks every four years, the Olympian is roundly ignored.

But even in the glamorous -- meaning profitable, marketable -- pursuits like track and field, serious money touches just a few. Maybe only the top performer in only a third of the events is truly thriving. Most Olympians just...
...physicists reached their conclusion as the result of an experiment conducted in Greenland last summer. They lowered a supersensitive gravity meter into a mile-deep hole bored in glacial ice -- chosen because its density is more uniform than that of rock -- and monitored the gravitational pull as the meter descended. What occurred was startling: the expected increase in gravitational force predicted by Newton was there, but it got stronger faster than expected. Either something was enhancing the force of gravity or the researchers had come upon a heretofore unknown, far more complex working of gravity itself. Or, just possibly, they...
