Crossword and sudoku solutions — January 16, 2015 issue

As regular readers have surely noticed, we recently redesigned TheWeek.com. The puzzles section is still under construction. You can still find this week's crossword and sudoku solutions below, the original puzzles by clicking here, and this week's contest by clicking here. But this is just a temporary fix. Within a couple of weeks, we'll resurrect our playable crossword puzzles and have a much more navigable hub for our puzzles. In the meantime, thank you for your patience.
See the original puzzles here. And see this week's contest here.
