It is probably due to the following :

"if(newdoc.getSpace().substring(lastFour) == "Blog") {"

in Java, if you have the following :

String st1 = "Blog";
String st2 = new String("Blog");

then st1 == st2 will always return false, as the objects are not the 
same. What you want is to compare their values, using st1.equals(st2), 
which will return true.
You can read here to find out more 
http://www.unix.com.ua/orelly/java/langref/ch04_09.htm (especially this 
sentence : "Because the == operator determines if two objects are the 
same object, it is not appropriate for comparisons that need to 
determine if two objects have the same contents. For example, if you 
need to know whether two String objects contain the same sequences of 
characters, the == operator is inappropriate. You should use the 
equals() method")

Anyway, their is even simpler for you. What you want to do is check if 
the space name finishes by "Blog". For this the appropriate method is 
String#endsWith 
(http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.4.2/docs/api/java/lang/String.html#endsWith(java.lang.String))
 
As in :

"if(newdoc.getSpace().endsWith("Blog")) {"

Hope this helps and fixes your issue,
