Still, for those cut men uncomfortable with their circumcisions but even more squeamish about tugging on or weighing down their penises, Canadian inventor Randy Tymkin has developed a foreskin substitute - a silky sheath that protects the penis and keeps it soft.

Sometimes she makes some fantastic choices, like the time she wore her husband’s Gap shirt with a Vera Wang skirt to the Oscars, or the time she wore a beautiful gold sheath to an AmFar benefit.

Second, the footsteps of pedestrians in high-trafficked areas compressed the mix into an even more impenetrable sheath. However, even with the efforts of FMO and businesses around Harvard Square, many icy patches were left in paths of students. Shira R. Brettman ’07 was one of many Harvard students to have suffered embarrassment and injury as a result of the sidewalks. Brettman said that she slipped...
