Buffalo News Recipe

[ChappyOnIce]

I did a recipe for the Buffalo News. The feeds are fairly comprehensive, but they are my personal choices so if anyone would like to use this, he/she should look over the feeds. This is my first one and I started by doing a basic news source, added the feeds, then jumped over to the advanced area and tweaked it until it came out acceptable. I'm a newb to this, so please feel free to make suggestions on how it might be better. My Calibre is set up default output of MOBI for my Kindle 3.

I have this set up to auto download at 8am daily. I've noticed that the Buffalo News is still posting to their RSS feeds as late as 7:30am.

Thanks,
