Redundancies, Dependencies

Yahoo! Pipes is great, if not totally accessible to the non-programmer. Nonetheless, I've managed to make the following modifications to my Google Reader feeds, mostly using the filtering function:

• Andrew Sullivan now comes in a feed sans "The View From Your Window Posts"
• I've consolidated The New Republic "Plank" and "Stump" blogs into one feed, and removed the TNRTV posts.
• I've gotten rid of TPMTV posts.
• I've combined low-post-rate right-of-center-sometimes-insightful-sometimes-idiotic-Atlantic blogs (Douthat and McArdle) into one feed.
• I've removed the non-comic posts from Penny Arcade.
• I've stripped my meme feed of my own posts.
• Some of the AI via brain emulation posts were enough to keep Yudkowsky in the Overcoming Bias feed. For now.
  

Further suggestions welcome.
