My favorite time program for the Mac is Time Palette 
(http://www.timepalette.com/).  It's got a database of over ten 
thousand cities, all of which contain information on summer/winter 
time changes, plus it draws grayline maps in a bunch of different 
projections.  My favorite map (added to the program at my request) is 
the Azimuthal projection, better known to hobbyists as a Great Circle 
map.  If you drag one of the ten thousand cities in the database on 
to the map, it'll redraw that map using that location as the center 
point.  It also gives sunrise and sunset times, plus bearings and 
distances.  I like it a lot.
