Here's what I use:
------
import sys, os
sys.path.append('/home/ohgoditb/django_projects')
sys.path.append('/home/ohgoditb/django_src/django/bin')
sys.path.append('/home/ohgoditb/django_src')
sys.path.append('/home/ohgoditb/python_libs/lib/python2.3/site-
packages')
sys.path.append('/home/ohgoditb/python_libs/bin/')
os.environ['DJANGO_SETTINGS_MODULE'] = 'fallingbullets.settings'
from fallingbullets.apps.links import models
models.sync_magnolia_links()
from fallingbullets.apps.photos import models
models.sync_flickr_photos()
-------
Then just call "python that_file.py" from the cron job.
I think some of my paths in my $PATH are redundant and you'll notice
my fun little namespace collision with 'models', but it works well
enough for me. 'fallingbullets' is the name of the project.

Tyson
