feeds = [(u'Reporting & Essays', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/reporting.xml'), (u'Humor', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/humor.xml'), (u'Fiction & Poetry', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/fiction.xml'), (u'The Talk of the Town', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/talk.xml'), (u'Comment', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/comment.xml'), (u'The Financial Page', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/financial.xml'), (u'Politics', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/politics.xml'), (u'Movies', u'http://feeds.newyorker.com/services/rss/feeds/movies.xml'), (u'The Balance Sheet', u'http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/jamessurowiecki/rss.xml')]

I modified my recipe accordingly and it worked great. However, when I added a few more feeds, it ignored them. To wit:

(u'Think Tank', u'http://http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/stevecoll/rss.xml'),
(u'Hendrik Hertzberg', u'http://http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/hendrikhertzberg/rss.xml'),
(u'Sasha Frere-Jones', u'http://http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/sashafrerejones/rss.xml'),
(u'Interesting Times', u'http://http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/georgepacker/rss.xml'),
(u'The Book Bench', u'http://http://www.newyorker.com/online/blogs/books/rss.xml')]

I even made these the only feeds and it grabbed nothing. Any idea what I'm missing here?

Thanks,
El
