The New York Jets followed by drafting Texas Tech edge rusher David Bailey at No. 2, while the Arizona Cardinals picked Notre Dame running back Jeremiyah Love third overall.

Here Come The Expensive Condoms

CBS News— The world’s largest condom manufacturer says prices could rise by 20% to 30% as the Iran war increases the cost of oil-based materials such as synthetic rubber, lubricants, and packaging. Malaysia-based Karex Berhad, which produces for major brands like Durex and Trojan, also cited supply chain disruptions and shipping delays as added pressures. At the same time, demand has surged by about 30%, driven in part by lower global stockpiles and increased contraceptive use during periods of uncertainty.

"Mary Jane" Gets New Title In Drug Classifications

AP News— The Trump administration on Thursday signed an order to reclassify marijuana, shifting it from the highly restrictive Schedule I category to the less stringent Schedule III classification to ease regulations on cannabis research. While the change does not legalize marijuana or eliminate criminal penalties for its use or possession, it moves the drug out of the same category as heroin—previously defined as having high abuse potential and no accepted medical use—into a category that acknowledges potential medical applications. The decision follows a December executive order from President Donald Trump aimed at expanding research into medical marijuana.

Today's Holidays

Celebrate the weird stuff. We do.

Holiday #1 of 4

National Pigs-in-a-Blanket Day

<p data-id="a5d46e02-8c9b-4223-a9b0-d9fb5f7d4064" id="a5d46e02-8c9b-4223-a9b0-d9fb5f7d4064">National Pigs-in-a-Blanket Day is that proud moment on the calendar where we stop pretending we’re above snack food and publicly honor the tiny meat missile wrapped in dough like it’s wearing a tuxedo. It’s not a “holiday” so much as a permission slip to eat six of them standing over the sink and call it a celebration. Families will gather, offices will “potluck,” and somebody’s gonna bring the fancy version with everything bagel seasoning like that fixes their personality. Consider it the opening bell for a long season of bad decisions with good seasoning.</p>
