2005 Pulitzer Prizes - http://www.pulitzer.org/ - See who has won in what categories.
Brit Kids in World War II - http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2children/home.shtml - The BBC has launched a site about World War II as seen from the eyes of British youngsters. The photos in A Wartime Home show what an air-raid shelter was like and how the normal family of the time and place would have lived. All captions are clear, detailed, and aimed at younger readers. The Rationing Challenge gives three possible menus and gets children to balance their ration cards and preferred foods with what was available in those pre-supermarket days when tinned goods were limited by shipping attacks and vegetarians were rare.
How to Cut with a Knife - http://www.hertzmann.com/articles/2005/fables/ - Besides being a fine chef's tool tutorial, this illustrated guide on how to use a knife in the kitchen is worth visiting for the quality of the graphic illustrations.
The Gallery of Computation - http://www.complexification.net/ - The gallery displays art that has been drawn by computer code - not randomly, but code specifically designed by the artist to produce semi-random, complex images. Truly Stunning!
