Dear Rene, l believe that my wife really needs to print the crossword. The paper is a visceral thing...

This is a great help to our organization. Yesterday afternoon, I stopped by the office to pay my subscription to the Times Argus. I talked with the excellent fellow at the front desk, about the curtailment of the print edition starting next month. As my wife is a great fan of the daily crossword puzzle, we discussed the idea of having the crossword puzzle print on a local printer here at our house. Under the Ubuntu Linux operating system, this would become a daily "cron" job. That said, I have no doubt that there are likely to be Digital Rights Management (DRM) and other barriers to carrying out this simple expedient. So in beginning to implement this plan to print the crossword puzzle, this morning I went to the Times Argus Crossword drop-down on the "Features" drop-down off of the Times Argus Home page (http://www.timesargus.com/), selected "Crossword" and received the following "404" error: http://www2.uclick.com/client/tav/fcx/ Notes; This system error message indicated that the host system I was connecting to was running nginx/1.4.6 (Ubuntu). Further, the Sudoko link from the "Features" drop-down worked fine, so I do not believe it could have been an error on my side. So, as a subscriber, and in the interests of keeping domestic tranquility, I would humbly ask that we come together and discuss how I can download and print the daily crossword from the newspaper to which my family subscribes. I am of the opinion that accomplishing this and distributing the method may be a great benefit for the Times Argus enterprise. I look forward to your response.
