Re:Tuesday NYT (Score 2, Interesting)

You are bang in your last sentence: the Tuesday "Science Times" in the New York Times is consistently the best topical science journalism I know of. Today's issue has a great story on the possible proof of Poincare's conjecture - some hard core topology with your morning coffee. The topics are not always the broadest: far too much string theory and health news for my taste, but good writing and not dumbed down.
