Advanced Statistics and Optimization: This is a very nice page by Eric Maass, geared toward engineering applications of statistics. Includes coverage of statistical distributions, SPC and time series, statistical analysis, experimental design, and optimization. Note: there are a few formatting quirks. The site is hosted by GeoCities, so it has that annoying watermark and pop-up advertisements. Also, the bulk of the content seems to be in the form of slides converted to HTML, but in many cases the conversion was not entirely successful (or at least doesn't appear so in my IE5.0).
Bibliography for Computational Probability and Statistics: This bibliography contains a wealth of resources for computational probability and statistics. Includes web links as well as traditional print references. Thanks to Prof. Hossein Arsham for this list.

Multiple Regression with Ren & Stimpy: An amusing site which enlists our cartoon heroes to aid the "Graduate Student" (complete with mortarboard, sunglasses, and a smoke hangin' out of his mouth) in explaining multiple regression in the context of usability testing. IMO, the Ren and Stimpy graphics get annoying after a little while, but I'm all in favor of spicing up statistics education, so I won't complain too loudly. ;-)

Portraits of Statisticians: This fascinating site includes portraits (i.e. photos and/or paintings) of many famous statisticians. Most of the statisticians featured are historical (i.e. dead), but many contemporary statisticians are featured as well. If you've always wondered what Rev. Bayes or Sir R. A. Fisher looked like, here's your chance to find out!
