Judge Thomas Hogan jailed Miller for refusing to testify before a grand jury called by special counsel Patrick Fitzgerald. Fitzgerald is investigating whether senior Bush Administration sources cited by reporter Robert Novak in a column outing CIA operative Valerie Plame Wilson broke a law that prohibits the deliberate revelation of an undercover agent's name. The case has gained intrigue because Novak hasn't said whether he has testified-- several other journalists have--and some believe that Fitzgerald's investigation has become so broad that he is also looking into perjury or obstruction-of-justice charges against one or more...
...turns 87 on Thursday, is secure enough not to care what people think of him, or to fret that they may not think of him at all. Neither do I.

Their impromptu stand-up routine and reflections on IM glory echoed through...

The object: fill each square with a number from 1 to 9 so that every number appears only once in each row, column and cell. Long popular in Japan, sudoku is based on 18th century mathematician Leonhard Euler's Latin Square, and first appeared in U.S. puzzle books in the 1970s under the scintillating title Number Puzzle. The Western craze didn't take off until last fall when an enterprising New Zealander used...
