Shades of James bond -- active camouflage!

Trevor Marshall is an antenna geek. If you like to play around with 802.11, you should check out his pages.

The cavalier installation of 802.11b/a in large institutions that should know better is remarkable. The place I was last associated with was as bad about this as any despite having some outstanding rf and security people who were not able to make a great difference. I suspect it is as bad or worse at most companies.

John points out an amazing collection of online calculators.

In addition to calculators there are links to any number of monitors - here is a great example covering several space weather indicators.

Wolfram Research has an online symbolic intregal tool ... powered by Mathematica:) The input field is rather limited and if you have any great need for integrals you probably have Maple and/or Mathematica and a stack of reference books.

Caltech has a neat little applet for an introductory special relativity course.

How many calories does your horse burn?

It is easy to go on and on (and on and on), but I leave that as an exercise to the surfer.

And finally a holiday treat for OS X users ... probably the prettiest snowflake screen saver I've seen. If you need a little snow for the holiday season, this is very nice.
