I know this is a little off-topic for this blog, but the idiots in Congress are at it again and this time they are trying to cut funding for PBS and NPR. PBS and NPR produce a lot of great commercial-free television and radio shows in the US. I never miss shows like FrontLine, NOVA, and Innovation on PBS. In addition, they produce countless other educational, entertaining programs for people young and old.
National Public Radio is also a target as Republicans claim it's too hard on Israel. I am an avid NPR listener and I find their reporting to be the most balanced, honest and interesting.
There are a few places to go to support NPR and PBS:

Sorry for the diversion – Now back to our regularly scheduled programming.
