Looking for Something: Vocal Trance on AM/FM Radio

There was once a time when I listened to www.di.fm, digitally imported radio pretty regularly. I listened to the vocal trance channel, of course. Then, recently, I was thinking about how I listen to the radio on my way to work. The CD player skips too much on the rough roads, and I like to save my mp3 player's battery for the day ahead. I thought of both of these at one point, and I figured that maybe I could find some vocal trance on the radio for my driving time. But alack! I haven't found any yet.
This is where you come in. Do any of you know where I can tune in to vocal trance on AM or Ohio FM radio? Comment! Send me tweets! Interact with me in some way!

(Oh, and di.fm now has Android & iPhone apps for listening wherever, if you have one of those fancy doodads.)

Inuyasha and the Lord of the Jewel?

OK, so, a while back, I saw a parody of The Lord of the Rings and of Inuyasha that used Inuyasha clips and its own dialog. Basically, Inuyasha & pals = fellowship, sacred jewel thing = one ring, etc. I think that it was called "Inuyasha and the Lord of the Jewel", though I could be wrong about this. Sadly, while I can find other, similar, shorter parodies, I can't find this one.
So, if you know where I can find it, or even if you just know a little detail, like that I got the title wrong, then leave a comment below, or send me an e-mail. That's all for now.

... No Evil Shall Escape My Might ...

So, yesterday, I was thinking of something. This probably came about due to looking at Amazing Freaking Grace on TV Tropes. I'm pretty sure that whatever I was thinking used the "common meter".
Basically, I was thinking of a song or poem in English whose first two lines end in the /ait/ sound, i.e., "-ite"/"-ight". I was thinking that it would be amusing if the third line, as I continued reciting it, went "No evil shall escape my might", which does not belong there, of course, but would continue the rhyme and meter.
I can't remember what the first two lines that I was trying to use were, though. If you can think of it, then leave a comment or send me an e-mail.

Dead Podcasts Society: Car Wars

So I was looking into Car Wars briefly a short while ago, and I heard that there was a Car Wars podcast. I thought that this would be a good way to learn a bit more about the nature of that game, since I could listen to the podcast while doing something else. Anyway, it looks like the site that originally had the podcast is rather dead, and I can't seem to find it anywhere else. Everywhere else seems to link back to the dead site. So, anyway, if you know where I can find it (like some sort of podcast archive or podcast-sharing system), then post a comment.

Note to self: Edit this later to include links to relevant sites (the dead site that hosted it, the sites that point to it, etc.).

I'm Looking for Something: Sudoku with Green Dots

OK, so at some point I was shown or otherwise just stumbled across a sudoku that had green dot indicators for when one finished a row, column, or box. For rows, the dots would appear on the side, and for columns the dots would appear on the bottom, if I'm remembering it correctly, but maybe on the top. Boxes had green dots appear in one of the outside corners (I forget which). Also, if I'm remembering this right, finished areas had all of the boxes highlighted in green.
Anyway, searches for this have turned up fairly dry (any search that includes "sudoku" (despite what else is included) returns a plethora of irrelevant results, and those that don't turn up results that one would expect from "green" or "green dot"), and I don't remember how I got to it. I liked the interface, though, especially since it helps one to keep track of something without having to just look at the sections of text. So, if you're reading this and know where I can find that, then post a link in the comments. Assistance with this matter will be appreciated.
