Should diabetics eat carbohydrates and lose weight
A medical reader asks if diabetics should reduce carbs to lose weight. The reply explains a balanced diet with about 50-60 percent calories from carbohydrates, 30 percent fat, and 12-15 percent protein. High fat diets are discouraged due to atherosclerosis risk. carbs come from bread fruit and cereals, tailored to weight and glucose. Exercise after heart attack should be prescribed by a physician and done in moderation.

Endplay lessons from a four spade contract study
In a masters pair match South opened four spades after partners notrump response. West faced a decision to double or pass. The article describes how doubles by West depended on South's skill, noting that good play could yield a trump endplay and the contract, while a mistake by South could let the defense snag three trump tricks. It outlines a typical sequence leading to nine tricks, with South and West each holding four trumps remaining at the critical moment and unable to stop the endgame.
