Originally named Lexiko and then Criss-Cross Words, Alfred Mosher Butts eventually settled on the name Scrabble. The amateur artist and unemployed architect developed the word game in the midst of the depression. Still, it wasn’t until 1948, a final name change and a trademark that Butts finally began to produce the game.

SPCA Pet of the Day: Meet Peach

Nicholas Boyack Reporter from Community News

"I came to SPCA initially when I was found lost and very underweight. I have been looked after for a while and am now ready to find a home!

"I came to SPCA initially when I was found lost and very underweight. I have been looked after for a while and am now ready to find a home!
Although I didn't look my best when I first arrived at SPCA, it didn't take long for me to settle in and start looking healthier and happier. I charm most people I meet, and have lots of love to give. I can be a bit over the top when first meeting other dogs, but have gotten to make some friends and get to win them over with my exuberant greetings. If I were to go home to another dog, it would need to be one who is social and still eager to share playtime with me as an older dog may get annoyed with me. I am better suited to medium to large male dogs so this is my preference for a home. When it comes to training I come across very goofy at first, but am very motivated by treats and have started to pick up training easily. I'd like to continue training in my new home and show you what I'm capable of achieving. Although I can be full of beans at times, I really do love a good cuddle and chill out time with my humans, and once I have a good routine I am sure to flourish in my new home. I am so full of character and bound to provide you with lots of laughs. History of my previous homes is unknown, and for this reason combined with my personality, the team is looking for a home for me with confident children over 10 years or adults. I am looking for a home without cats."

"We have a good sized
population of royal spoonbills at the Waikanae estuary - recently swelled by new arrivals to around 26 birds. I was hidden in a reed bed adjacent to the Waimanu lagoon yesterday afternoon, and managed to capture these lovely images of a bird blissfully unaware of my presence."
