Seems we were pulling the newswire rather than the features!

I've changed it from http://maine.indymedia.org/rss/newswire.1-0.rdf to
http://maine.indymedia.org/rss/features.1-0.rdf

This seems to have worked as it has just pulled all the features, which
of course the syndicated wire didn't have.

LA has looked at the RSS channels available (see below) is there any
chance we can make a quick cross reference to make sure that the list on
earth is correct? Is there a simple way of doing this?
