If I like the NPR track, I use Replay Media Catcher on it. A few days ago I could no longer play these NPR streams. Attempts wind up with something that says NPR media player, graphic, ZAG. I can play streams at MSNBC and CNBC. Following the directions of an NPR tech, I uninstalled and reinstalled Adobe Flash 9. That didn't help. I wonder if the trouble might lie in IE7, internet options, security tab? What do you think? Again, I had no problems with this before Tuesday.

Known for rapping over beats from unlikely sources (including French electronic duo Justice and English singer Lily Allen), Wale is a blogger favorite, and the song responsible for much of the buzz is "Nike Boots." Song: "Nike Boots" | Artist: Wale | CD: MP3 Only | Genre: Hip-Hop Previous Song of the Day Song: "Free at Last" | Artist: Josh Fix CD: Free at Last Genre: Pop Josh Fix: A One-Man Band Says Goodbye Fix's "Free at Last" is a spurned lover's declaration of independence from the woman who dumped him: a finely orchestrated power ballad, sung at a deliberate pace and dedicated to the proposition that he's through with her, even though she's come back around.
