CAMBRIDGE, Mass. (Oct. 2) -- Red alert! Red alert! Some dastardly group has unleashed a deadly gas! Quick, ladies! Undo your bras!
If a doctor who accepted an award at Harvard University on Thursday night had her way, women would go braless as soon as a city was struck by a radioactive bomb or anthrax attack, so that they could use their intimate apparel as a gas mask.
Elena Bodnar, a Ukrainian cardiologist, came to the most prestigious university in America to accept one of its least prestigious honors -- the Ig Nobel.

Apparently, it's very important to a male college student in Sweden to pump his breasts for three months to see if he can lactate.
LEAD STORY: Apparently, it's very important to a male college student in Sweden to pump his breasts for three months to see if he can lactate.
A male Swedish college student, Ragnar Bengtsson, 26, has begun pumping his breasts at three-hour intervals in a 90-day experiment to see if he can produce milk. If he succeeds, he said, it could prove "very important for men's ability to get much closer to their children at an early stage." A professor of endocrinology told the daily Aftonbladet that male lactation without hormone treatment might produce "a drop or two," but suggested that men instead consider offering their breasts to babies as a matter of comfort and warmth, rather than as food. Bengtsson, who will report regularly on his progress via Stockholm's TV8 channel and the station's Web site, acknowledged that his timetable would sometimes require that he pump during classes.
