I probably wouldn't buy it at the point where I am now with my sudoku-ing, but it was perfect for where I was at the time, and if you or someone you know is newly hooked (or you want to hook them) this is a good place to start!
The is a great puzzle book. The puzzles are consistently good throughout the book and any beginning to mid-level puzzler will find them fun. More advanced puzzlers may like the book as well, as the puzzles will be easy for them to do quickly; coffee-break puzzles, if you will.
I found these puzzles to be enjoyable, work to finish but
workable. They are very similar to cross sums.
I found I needed a pencil to erase errors.
Paper does bleed through.
Difficulty level was constant.

Police are hunting for a man with a cut-down rifle following a shooting in South Auckland last night.
A 23-year-old man is in a critical condition in Middlemore Hospital after being confronted and shot in the stomach at a property in Flatbush, East Tamaki, about 11pm.
Detective Inspector Jim Gallagher said the victim was understood to have been drinking with friends outside his house when he was injured.
"The victim has been in his car, he's hopped out and something has taken place. Someone else has produced a .22 calibre weapon and shot it at him at close range," Gallagher said.
A car, driven by a man, was seen speeding away from the house immediately after.
Gallagher alleged the man was Gareth Heron, 25. Heron has a tall, thin build.
He was thought to be driving a 1998 dark green Mazda Capella, registration number GKM946. Because he is thought to be in possession of the rifle, the public were warned to not approach him, but instead call police.
This morning police were conducting a scene examination and canvassing neighbours for information.
They also erected a large marquee on the side of the street - under which was a white car - and have cordoned off a 50-metre stretch of Eastland Rd.
Neighbour Vicky Sing, who had recently moved to the area, said she was attracted to the suburb because it was quiet.
She was "very, very surprised" when police knocked on her door early this morning to explain what had happened.
Another resident described being woken by what he thought was a firework but because a lot had been let off around New Years, he thought nothing of it.
He heard people talking on the street shortly afterwards but said there were no raised voices or screeching tyres.
"I'm the sort of person who'll get up and go outside if there's domestic going on... but I didn't hear anything aggressive," he said.
Gallagher said police were particularly interested in any activity around the address at 35 Eastland Rd, between 10pm and 11pm, including any sighting of the vehicle.
Anyone with information about the incident was asked to call Counties Manukau Police on 09 261 1300 or Crime Stoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111.

Rather than pretend I know myself, I decided to ask some actual teens what they are reading and enjoying. I have two teenagers who live right in my own home so it was an easy decision to start with them.
This month: Ben is 14 years old and loves Star Wars, The Legend of Zelda, Doctor Who, and other nerdy stuff like that.
He is super excited about the long-awaited The Legend of Zelda: Hyrule Historia finally being released in English! The Legend of Zelda Nintendo game franchise has been luring fans since the first game was released in 1986, and is just as big now. The Historia includes the official Legend of Zelda timeline, which has been a hotly debated topic among Zelda fans for many years. You might want to check out the manga too. If you are the sort of obsessed fan who might have, say, a life-size Hylian shield replica and/or your own ocarina, you probably also love the mysterious music from the games. Some examples can be found at CADL in the Greatest Video Game Music collections.
Ben and I are both really looking forward to Star Wars Day on the May 4 (you know, "may the fourth be with you"). Capital Area District Libraries will be hosting events at both the Downtown Lansing and Haslett locations. Costumes are welcome and there will be a variety of activities. The Downtown Lansing Library will show the movie that started it all.
I've run out of room to discuss much for those of you who know all about the dangers of blinking and the importance of having a sonic screwdriver in your pocket at all times, but there is plenty for you to love here at CADL too. Using the library for your books and movies will help you save money for that TARDIS you're building in the back yard.

China Navy's Nanhai Fleet flotilla is patrolling the Zengmu Reef, the southernmost part [of what it considers to be] the country's territory, and those on board the 3 ships took a ceremonial oath to safeguard sovereignty, reports Xinhua.
The Zengmu Reef is a key maritime traffic juncture as well as a strategic spot. The Chinese navy patrols the area, about 50 miles off the coast of Malaysia on a regular basis. Known in English as James Shoal, the reef is claimed also by Malaysia, and the Republic of China (Taiwan).
The three-ship flotilla consists of amphibious landing craft Changbaishan and destroyers Wuhan and Haikou, says Xinhua citing military sources.
During the ceremony held in the Zengmu Reef area, soldiers and officers aboard swore an oath of determination to safeguard the country's sovereignty and maritime interests. Xinhua informs that Fleet Commander Jiang Weilie urged soldiers and officers to always be prepared to fight, improve combat capabilities and lead the forces to help build the country into a maritime power.

This post is part of an ongoing series on Eye Level: Q and Art, where American Art's Research department brings you interesting questions and answers about art and artists from our archive. This week: sculptor Viola Frey.
This year, the Luce Foundation Center marked the 10th anniversary of our opening. To celebrate, we're throwing a party on July 22 at our Luce Unplugged Community Showcase with musical performances by PraxisCat and Big Hush.
SAAM's annual birthday celebration honoring the legacy of media pioneer Nam June Paik—an artist known for his interest in robotics and humanizing technology—featured artists Lilla LoCurto and Bill Outcault. Their work, the three-foot tall the willful marionette was built from 3-D scanned images of a human figure. Show More Summary
On Saturday, July 9, SAAM presented America Now: America Particpates, an opportunity to incorporate creativity with citizen democracy through art, music, storytelling, and service.
Shortly after its release, colleagues began playing Pokémon Go —an augmented reality game that has captured the imagination of the entire internet. Museum visitors were doing the same. At the Smithsonian American Art Museum, new games are often received with more enthusiasm than might be expected of an art museum. Show More Summary
Each month, we partner with our neighbors up the street at Flashpoint Gallery to present our local artist talk series. This month, Kathryn Lynch Thibault joins us to talk about her most recent exhibition and works that inspire her in our Luce Foundation Center. Show More Summary
The final program in the WONDER series of artist talks featured Gabriel Dawe in conversation with Nora Atkinson, the Lloyd Herman Curator of Craft at the Renwick Gallery. Dawe's Plexus A1, one of the nine room-filling installations commissioned for the exhibition, spins a new riff on the theme of alchemy: it turns thread into light.
The Renwick's reinstallation of more than eighty objects from its permanent collection—Connections: Contemporary Craft at the Renwick Gallery—brings together artists working in media as diverse as vinyl, denim, quartz, and glass.
In honor of the current exhibition "The Art of Romaine Brooks," eminent scholars Cassandra Langer, Sylvia Kahan, and Helen Langa, joined SAAM's chief curator Virginia Mecklenburg, for a discussion that shed new light onto the artist's life and times.
For a decade, Duane Hanson's life-like sculpture Woman Eating has fascinated SAAM visitors. With funding provided by the Smithsonian's Women's Committee, conservators were able to research, examine, document, and treat this work for future generations to continue to enjoy.
Join us this Saturday, June 25 at 1:30 p.m. for the latest installment of our Luce Artist Talks series. This month's talk features mixed-media artist Anne Bouie, who strives to "express the universal themes of order, harmony, growth, beauty, and transcendence" in her work.
Romaine Brooks' Self-Portrait The paintings of Romaine Brooks have always made me want to learn more about the artist, ever since first seeing a selection of her work in the Renwick Gallery's Grand Salon in 2009, including her self-portrait and...
E. Carmen Ramos, curator of Latino Art at SAAM, was recently in Mexico to research her upcoming exhibition on the acclaimed 20th-century Mexican artist Rufino Tamayo's lengthy residence and production in New York City. This is the sixth and final post Carmen scribed from the road. Show More Summary
What do artists Johannes Vermeer, Jean-Michel Basquiat, and Frida Kahlo all have in common? They are all featured in this summer's artist film program at SAAM.
"Everything you can do with a pencil you can do with a stick," artist Patrick Dougherty remarked the other evening at a talk in the Renwick's Grand Salon, as he likened his craft to the art of drawing.
"Martin Puryear: Multiple Dimensions," opening today at SAAM, is a homecoming for the artist, and the opportunity for us to take a deeper look at Puryear's career.
Photography has a way with time. Two works of art, both photographic series currently on view, speak to each other in a poignant dialogue without words. In the Lincoln Gallery, on SAAM's third floor, Nicholas Nixon's The Brown Sisters can be seen on the wall adjacent to Camilo José Vergara's series 10828 S. Show More Summary
For May's Handi-hour at the Renwick Gallery you'll start by making your own loom using scrap cardboard from all those Amazon boxes you have lying around.
The Smithsonian American Art Museum just acquired six major works by Bill Traylor, an artist who was born into slavery around 1853-54, and first began his creative life as an elderly man, after living and working primarily as a sharecropper.
It's time for another Luce Unplugged Community Showcase, and we couldn't be more excited to team up with Washington City Paper to present Beauty Pill, next Friday, May 20th from 6 to 8 p.m. If you aren't familiar with this beloved D.C. band, check out their 2015 album Beauty Pill Describes Things as They Are.

A new global survey conducted by independent analyst firm Verdantix reveals the sixty-four business brands with the highest – and lowest – levels of positive perception with senior decision-makers in environment, health and safety functions. The Verdantix survey is based on interviews with 250 heads of environment, health and safety in 13 major economies across the Americas, Europe, Africa, the Middle East, Asia and Australia.
In the global market for environment, health and safety assurance and compliance services, Deloitte leads the pack with 55% of respondents stating they have a positive perception of the brand. Bureau Veritas achieves the second highest level of positive brand perception, followed by KPMG and EY. The top four in this assurance market are followed by a second group of suppliers with moderately high positive brand perception: PwC, SGS, ERM CVS and BSI.
Among the 15 environmental services brands benchmarked in this global survey, ERM achieves the highest level of positive brand perception with 41% of EH&S decision-makers indicating they have been ERM clients or have a positive perception of the firm. On this metric, ENVIRON achieves the second highest positive brand perception globally (39%), followed by CH2M HILL (35%) and AECOM (33%).
In relation to the implementation of information management systems for EH&S business processes, the 250 interviewees showed the strongest preference to work with technology consultants at IBM (59% positive), HP (50% positive) and Deloitte (50% positive). Accenture, Fujitsu, Hitachi Consulting and Capgemini also achieved positive brand recognition.
In the software market, 71% of EH&S buyers stated a positive brand perception of Microsoft, 58% for SAP, 54% for IBM and 51% for Oracle. This reflects the frequent use of database and spreadsheet technologies for EH&S data management. Among specialist suppliers of EH&S software, BSI achieved the highest positive brand perception (30%), followed by IHS (24%), Intelex (22%) and Enablon (21%).
The Verdantix report, 'Global Survey 2014: EH&S Brands', finds that there is huge scope for suppliers in the global EH&S market to improve brand awareness outside their core markets. More than 50% of EH&S assurance, certification and compliance buyers have never heard of DEKRA, Intertek and TUV SUD. Multi-disciplinary services firms also notch up paltry brand awareness scores: 48% of interviewees had no knowledge of URS Corporation, 52% had not heard of Stantec and 60% had no information about ARCADIS.
To learn more about EH&S market dynamics attend the Verdantix Summit 'Getting Value From EH&S Software And Technologies', to be held on September 30th in Boston.

A critical component of any IoT project is what to do with all the data being generated. This data needs to be captured, processed, structured, and stored in a way to facilitate different kinds of queries.

Cambridge University rules out opening campus in India
Chandigarh: Cambridge University on Thursday said it was strengthening partnerships with Indian institutions, but was not looking to establish a campus in the country.
"The University is not considering opening up a campus in India," Vice-Chancellor, Sir Leszek Borysiewiczh, told reporters here.
Ruling out a compromise on students intake from India, he said there was no possibility of inking tie-ups with undergraduate institutions in the country.
However, projects have been taken up to build partnerships with Indian institutions, he said.
Cambridge University, which has tie-ups with five institutes here for Post Graduate programmes, was "getting rich talent from India."
At present, the University had 270 active projects with Indian institutions and the focus was on areas of excellence.
244 students of Indian origin were pursuing higher education at Cambridge University, he said.
Earlier, Shiromani Gurudwara Parbhandhak Committee (SGPC) president, Avtar Singh Makkar, said as part of an agreement between SGPC and the University in 2009, five Sikh scholars will pursue M Phil/Phd at Cambridge each year.
The total expenses, including fee and boarding amounting to Rs 18 lakh per student per year approximately, will be shared equally by the SGPC and Cambridge University.
Two Sikh scholars, Ravpartap Singh from Chandigarh (Legal Studies) and Shinjni Singh from Lucknow (Asian Development Studies), have been selected for the Phd programme this year.
As other such scholars, they will have to teach in an SGPC-run institution for three years after completing the higher degree, Makkar said.
