At least, I hope they're not billing for this. The Daily Report, a prominent newspaper for legal professionals, apparently runs a weekly crossword puzzle full of legal terms, and the publication's website runs it as well. Fortunately, legalistic clues like 10-Down's "____ paging; a method of referring to a page in an earlier edition" are balanced by general ones like 10-Across, "Thick carpet." The app works pretty smoothly, and you can swap between across and down with the arrow keys -- a nice usability touch.
I wish I could find more information about the crossword, such as the name of the constructor and whether it is exclusive to the Daily Report or syndicated to other legal outlets. Tip of the hat to Legal Writing Prof Blog, which is where I found the link. It's a site by and for lawyers, of course, but it covers some fun off-topic stuff like Cake Wrecks and the National Day on Writing (today, Oct. 20!). Thanks for the laughs, legal eagles....
