| Dumb Laws | It's a site that cherishes the old and outdated laws of many countries. Click on the country whose laws you want have a chuckle over. I took a look around old French laws and did you know that no pig may be addressed as Napoleon by its owner? Or that in England, with the exception of carrots, most goods may not be sold on Sunday? The site's main focus is on US state laws and you'll find loads of content here. But the other countries are also worth checking out. Unless they've been repealed these laws are still valid, so if you're thinking of stealing an alligator in Louisiana you could land in jail for up to ten years!

| The Internet Encyclopaedia of Philosophy | Within these plain but well structured pages is a massive database of philosophical facts, from pre-Socrates right up to present day disciplines such as Metaphysics and Moral & Political philosophy. Like I said, the pages are plain, but in the quest for knowledge I guess most serious philosophers don't need pretty pictures to look at. Search for a key word, or click on a letter to see a list of names of the philosophers you can read information about. You can also click the timeline link to see a table of contents mapped out historically. Now - go forth and gain wisdom.

| GALEX | a California Institute of Technology led project, which launched an orbiting space telescope in April last year. The core purpose of the mission is to observe galaxies in ultraviolet light across 10 billion years of cosmic history. Such observations will tell scientists how galaxies, the basic structures of our Universe, evolve and change. Like most NASA supported websites, the layout is really clear and easy to follow, with the navigation panel on the left providing access to all the main sections about the mission, its findings, educational elements and quick facts. If you're interested in this kind of thing then it really is worth taking your time to step through each section and absorb it, starting with About GALEX. Despite the highly scientific nature of the information, it's written in plain and simple language, and nicely illustrated throughout with pictures, diagrams and movies. Words that you see underlined will open into a quick info window explaining more about that part of the technology. This is definitely a site worth book marking and returning to regularly, as it will be continuously updated with pictures and news during the 29-month mission of the GALEX satellite.
