Kiplop74 - Thank you for all your work with this. Any yes, that does get rid of the annoying ads at the top. Your solution works to cut out the ads, but also all the news pictures that go at the top of the article.

This feed does have a picture with the story - http://www.telegram.com/article/2009...S04&source=rss - and I still haven't been able to get this or other pictures in, without having the other ads show up as well.

Thank you for the recipe kiklop74! Nice to have some Russian news to read! I'm still a newbie and am struggling to understand news recipes.

Fortunately my Hanlin V3 displays Russian fonts without me having to do any patches!

Calibre 6.13

Recipe for Honolulu Advertiser seems to have broken. Getting the summaries, but the articles are missing. The Honolulu Star-Bulletin seems to work fine, so it isn't Calibre (or me!) I guess.

I've just started with Calibre, so not yet in a position to consider trying to fix the recipe.

Thanks,
