Newspaper readers: This Sunday, we introduce some nice improvements to our Life & Leisure section. We've heard from our research that one area where we could do better, news-wise, is serving younger women.

So, we've added one of the nation's hippest advice columnists, Harlan Cohen, and his nationally known column, Help Me Harlan! It's not just for women. Rather, his advice is largely for people under 35 who face a fast-paced dating world and just being happy.

We'll also start a new garden column. Tom Atwell, who was born and raised in central Maine, writes a weekly column on Maine gardening for the Maine Sunday Telegram. This week, he'll start writing for us too. Tom also writes a blog for the Portland Press Herald Web site. I haven't added him to our Web sites yet; if you feel strongly about that, let me know. Tom replaces long-time garden columnist Henry Homeyer, who did a wonderful job for us. Thank you, Henry.

Finally, we've built a new page that is intended to give "on the go" readers highlights for the coming week or so on TV, at the movies, with local music, arts and entertainment shows. It will include short features on local stars (yes, we have some.). We tell you what the "hot tix" are -- hottest event tickets currently on sale in our area. We hope you find it a useful, easy-to-read guide to fun events coming up.
