Catherine, I just tried the Google feed you mention in Accessible RSS and 
cannot get it to work.  Strange though, because I seem to remember that it 
usually complains that it cannot use the feed when you try to add it.  In this 
case it accepted it, but no "headlines" appear when I select the new feed. 

Juice is designed to facilitate the download of MP3s carried by the RSS 
feed - it would not be suitable for reading other RSS feeds.

Sharp Reader and Feed Reader are other free RSS aggregators although I 
have no experience of either.
