...threats like a well-oiled machine. Although authorities have identified just three people with flu-like symptoms who have traveled or have been exposed to someone who has traveled in recent days, they are on high alert. Two of the three people with respiratory ailments, a 77-year-old woman and her 4-year-old granddaughter, tested negative for H1N1. The third, a 27-year-old woman who had been to San Francisco, tested positive for a human influenza subtype, not swine flu. Rated "serious" on the government's influenza-alert scale, swine flu was named a notifiable disease...

Human-rights groups say the controversial legislation, approved in March, effectively sanctions marital rape and regulates when women may leave their homes.

...easy on the eyes. His (mildly) reformed flimflam man takes a cool, roguish pleasure in solving murders by reading the same tells and tics he once used to con people into thinking they were talking to dead loved ones. In one episode, he offhandedly tells a suspect woman what her type is - "sporty bad boys with a hidden masochistic streak" - and when she denies it, he grins and adds, matter-of-factly, "No, that was a bull...

...embarrassing revelation as a freebie. There's something creepy - but delightfully so - about how Jane looks at the rest of us as simple machines whose gears he can see whirring on the surface. CBS, which gets a 60% female audience for The Mentalist, has sold Jane as a woman's fantasy: "Finally, a man who listens." But really - and entertainingly - he's more like a superman who listens...
