One Who Cannot Be Shut Down

by George Barany

This "mid-week level" puzzle (14x14) was released on October 1, 2013, a date of particular significance to the puzzle's honoree (pictured to the right). After completing the puzzle (spoiler), learn more about him by clicking here.  Also, to understand the title of the puzzle, consider the news headlines of the day.

Click here to view or download the puzzle in PDF format; here to download it as a puz file; here to download it as an ipuz file [requires the free Puzzazz app to solve]; here to solve the puzzle interactively (thanks to Jim Horne); here for the solution. We thank a certain individual who is rather close to the honoree for a heads-up earlier in the day, and Marcia Brott, Brent Hartzell, and Martin Herbach for test solving on exceptionally short notice.
