Notes
* I would not attribute much significance to the BD Rating as Miffypops has repeatedly stated that he never changes it from its default value (***/***). In cases where the BD Rating on his reviews is other than the default value, it has likely been set by someone else.

Introduction

For the time being, I am taking a break from producing a full review of the weekday puzzles. I will be posting an abbreviated "Vacation Edition" of the blog for these puzzles containing the usual "tombstone" data relating to the puzzle. These posts are prepared in advance  and assume that the National Post does not deviate from its expected publication schedule. I will continue to produce a full review of the Saturday Cox and Rathvon puzzle.

Signing off for today — Falcon
