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 !

John McNeill, Barbara Pickersgill & Vernon Heywood

Professor Vernon Hilton Heywood (born December 24, 1927) is a world renowned British biologist. His main fields of excellence are medicinal and aromatic plants, and the conservation of wild relatives of plants.

He is currently a professor on the academic staff at the University of Reading in Reading, United Kingdom.

In 1987 he was awarded the Linnean Medal of the Linnean Society of London.[1]Planta Europa honored him with their Linnaeus award at their fifth conference, held in 2007 in Cluj Napoca.[2] The book Taxonomy and Plant Conservation (Cambridge University Press, 2006, Etelka Leadlay and Stephen Jury, eds.) was dedicated as a tribute to Heywood in honor of his 75th birthday.[3]

The standard author abbreviation Heywood is used to indicate this individual as the author when citing a botanical name.[4]
