...Crimson reported. Her claim: Lifestyles condoms barely meet federal safety guidelines. Is that true? University Health Services says no, but when it comes to such matters, better to trust no one. Armed with a physics concentrator’s toolbox, a faucet, a few free-weights, and a gang of prophylactics (Durex, Trojan, and the suspect Lifestyles), FM decided to get to the bottom of the love-glove travesty.

...Minutes . . . 25 Years (CBS) The anniversaries keep piling up, but this time Mike, Morley and the rest of the gang did more than the obligatory clip job.
