CBC Archives
Great clips and stories from year's past... WWII, Vietnam, etc. I particularly enjoy the "On This Day" clips. I listened to a Churchill broadcast and watched Sammy Davis Jr. talk to draft dodgers.

Favicon Generator
A great, quick on-line tool for creating favicons. Two warnings, though. First, if you put in their suggested <link> tag into a Xaraya site, make sure you explicitly close off the tag. Secondly, the favicon only works on the home page in the current version of IE -- not secondary pages.

George Kourounis - Storm Chaser & Adventurer
"I've spent many years photographing some of Mother Nature's most elusive and dangerous phenomenon. I've chased tornadoes, giant hail, dust storms, hurricanes, supercell thunderstorms, volcanoes and lightning among other things. This site contains a variety of photographs and video images of these encounters with wild weather and other forces of nature."
