Lettris
Lettris is a curious tetris-clone game where all the bricks have the same square shape but different content. Each square carries a letter. To make squares disappear and save space for other squares you have to assemble English words (left, right, up, down) from the falling squares.
boggle
Boggle gives you 3 minutes to find as many words (3 letters or more) as you can in a grid of 16 letters. You can also try the grid of 16 letters. Letters must be adjacent and longer words score better. See if you can get into the grid Hall of Fame !

Johanna Westerdijk (Nieuwer-Amstel, 4 januari 1883 - Baarn, 15 november 1961) was een Nederlands botanicus. Zij werd in 1917 benoemd tot buitengewoon hoogleraar in de plantenziektekunde aan de Universiteit Utrecht. Na deze benoeming, volgde in 1930 een tweede benoeming aan de Universiteit van Amsterdam. Ze was de eerste vrouw in een dergelijke positie in Nederland.
Westerdijk studeerde in Amsterdam, promoveerde in Zürich en werd in 1906 op 23-jarige leeftijd directeur van het Phytopathologisch Laboratorium 'Willie Commelin Scholten' in Amsterdam als opvolger van Jan Ritzema Bos. Ze was de stichteres van de schimmelcollectie in het Centraal Bureau voor Schimmelcultures (CBS). Westerdijk heeft veel onderzoek verricht naar de olmenziekte en ze heeft onder meer aangetoond dat een schimmel, Ceratocystis ulmi, de sterfte bij de olm veroorzaakte. Daarom wordt in het Engels de olmenziekte nog altijd Dutch elm disease genoemd.
