...What might give Sudoku brain cred to a veteran puzzle-solver like me? Two things. About a dozen of the book versions of the game carry the august authorship of Will Shortz, editor of the New York Times crossword, and star of the spiffy new documentary Wordplay, which opens this weekend in select cities. And among Sudoku's greatest fans is my sister-in-law, Pat Thompson Corliss...

When selecting fruit and veggies, dietician and food expert Melinda Hemmelgarn says the best...
...growing Jeb publicity machine before he leaves office next January. (Florida Governors are limited to two terms.) Official websites trumpeting his achievements, from school accountability to job creation, are as plentiful in the state capital of Tallahassee as Spanish moss. Tributes are pouring in from admirers like Weekly Standard editor Fred Barnes, who writes this month that Jeb should be "the prohibitive frontrunner for the Republican presidential nomination." And with tropical storms already pounding Florida, Jeb's face and his well-regarded command of hurricane management promise to be on prominent display from now through fall.
