I accidently figured out that some of my favorite weekend (and daily) NPR shows are now available as podcasts and indexed in iTunes.
If you have iTunes for such things, click here!
Otherwise, figure it out yourself

Spanning Sync for Mac
September 10th, 2008 · No Comments
I’ve been using Spanning Sync for a while to have stable bi-directional sync between iCal and Google Calendar. If you choose to do the same and want $5 off, try this:
Basically, it works and has the simplest possible user interface: choose which Google calendars map to which iCal calendars and let it go.
One downside: It doesn’t map reminders, which doesn’t bother me. If I do reminders, I just do them on iCal so they are synced properly over to the iPhone. See the FAQ here: http://spanningsync.com/faq.html
Best of all, if you buy via that link, then *I* get $5, too :). Or just use Spanning Sync code UAHBCQ
Good times.

Comparison of Obama and McCain’s tax plans here.
Analyze: Obama’s plan costs $160 per family. McCain’s costs $1,195. Obama’s helps those families making less than $66,000 the most, while McCain focuses on the ultra-rich with whopping tax cuts for those families making over $2.81 million dollars/year.
Consider: If you believe that Bush’s strategy of giving tax cuts to the ultra rich has actually trickled down and helped the poor and middle class, then vote for McCain as he’s proposing precisely the same strategy. If you believe is more directly helping families making less than $200,000/yr., then you should be interested in Obama’s.
