| Masyu 9 "Make up" |
Troll not
Regular readers of this blog, should such persons exist, may be excused for thinking the blog has turned into a convoluted trolling exercise, given the last couple of puzzles, which were unfairly, miserably hard. Hopefully, the masyu below starts to make up for those. It is of medium difficulty.
Descriptive Pairs Tile Sudoku
For once, the title is, well, descriptive. Every cell in the grid below contains a number between 1 to 9, inclusive. All numbers in the same row, or column, or bold outlined box are different. There are 16 rows, 16 columns and 9 boxes. Clues outside the grid take the form of a pair of numbers. For numbers i,j this means at least one of:
- the ith cell contains value j or
- the jth cell contains value i.

Turkey troubles
Yesterday, Serkan Yurekli posted a
concise description of demonstrations and the harsh crackdown
unfolding in Turkey. This is a courageous act, given the continuing arrests of protest information disseminators, and the horrors which
threaten detained dissenters. Consider this post an expression of
solidarity, and a call for police brutality to cease.
You can get a detailed picture of
events and their direct drivers all over the web. I suggest Gawker (of all places) for a conversational overview, and this well-linked Ryan McCarthy piece as an introduction to current discussion. Acemoglu has a few big-picture pieces on Turkey written prior to the events which seem to be on point. Finally, this video covers the government perspective of events.
