I keep this link bookmarked and quickly scan it once a week to see which of my companies are paying out this week.
http://www.dividendinformation.com/dividend_calendar/
My broker, TDA, also emails me the day before with a "1 Day Before Payable" notice.
There's a couple sites out there that have the dates in calendar and other form, but I usually ditch those pretty quickly as there's just way too many companies I have zero interest in cluttering the screen
I usually assume 4 weeks after ex dividend date is when the payable comes, but there's probably more outliers than followers of that rule

Scanning this I see something quite interesting in ARLP. They currently yield ~20% and their payable date is 1 week after their ex-div date. I don't know if the rule of thumb that the stock price drops about the percentage of the quarterly dividend on the pay date is true, but might be able to hold for ~10 days and make a few quick bucks with that one ... or not
