Born in 1959 - United Kingdom
Matthew Tyson was born in London in 1959.
It would be reducing to call the paintings of Matthew Tyson abstract.
Beyond its basic minimalism, there is a search of colors and complementary oppositions that go back and forth between the reference to light, as it flows and makes the landscape dynamic, and the concepts of division and harmony... "My work talks about the immensity of nature, he writes, as well as the fear it generates, without really being a threat.
Life and death are brought together in a delirious whirlpool that can only be calmed down by the doubtful restraints of the language, its traces and marks. The problem is always the representation, for example, of a landscape that is too huge to be painted or drawn in its infinite richness of details, and even the most sophisticated technology is not able to do it.
The light on a hill slope and the perception it generates have to be taken both into consideration." An unexpected flow finds its place and connects the various elements, shapes and colours.

Reverse Number Lookup
September 7, 2011 by USA Post
Reverse Number Lookup, VerifyPhone.com, a telephone directory of online resources that help consumers learn more about unknown callers by phone number search and telephone number of revisions, is warning consumers of a telephone scam is taking momentum in the United States.
The "Jury Duty scam is to trick unsuspecting people to give sensitive personal information to fraudsters through the phone, making them extremely susceptible to identity theft.
An article in Consumer Information section of About.com explains how the scam works:
"The jury scam the scammer, posing as an employee of the local court, indicates that the order has been issued for his arrest, and that was not presented to a jury. I probably had not received a notice a jury, he says it. At this point, the scammer asks for your date of birth and Social Security number, so that he or she can "verify" your notice of a jury. Of course, a Social Security number date of birth are an identity thief needs to make your life absolutely miserable. But wait, there's more. Depending on your willingness to give your basic information, the scammer may be emboldened to ask for your credit card information. "
Authorities believe the reason why a jury scam is so effective is that the threat of arrest shocks and scares the victims in the supply of sensitive information, without questioning whether the call is legitimate. By the time the victim has time to think about the call, which already have their private information in the hands of identity thieves.
VerifyPhone.com offers the following tips to protect consumers from becoming a victim of jury duty scam:
Courts will never request personal information over the phone. If in contact with someone who claims to be an officer of the court does not provide any personal information. Ask all official court business was conducted by mail, which is the standard U.S. courts correspondence.
Report suspicious calls to local secretary of the office of the Court of the United States District Court ..
Never provide personal information to an unsolicited call, no matter who they claim to represent. Legitimate companies and organizations offer consumers a secure method of exchanging information.
Request more information like contact number and address of the caller. Use VerifyPhone.com 's reverse phone lookup reverse address lookup & to verify the details of the caller provided. You might also want to know the phone number of the local court of the caller said he / she belonged and then called. For example, in Ontario, California, you can check the phone numbers of your local area code here @ Ontario, California Number of search. After obtaining all the information about the number in question to alert other consumers about this scam to report that VerifyPhone.com 's no phone review function.
VerifyPhone.com is the perfect combination of a public online directory and a highly specialized service, offering users access to all the information you need. From reviews of local businesses and call reports abusive searches of area code & detailed searches for landlines and cell phones, VerifyPhone.com offers the full range of services.

for applibot
Yeaaahh..!! this is great!!
Really fascinating!
Superb work!
I like how you made the girl's outfit big and almost leathery. It gives that sense of monstrousity but the feminine face also gives room for attention of security of approaching her with no fear. Very nice
some great sexy scary girls in your gallery
What dimensions do you usually work in?
Wooooo man, this is one provocative woman.
Personally, I love the corset/waist wrap clothing's design, and especially how you've painted her hips and legs. Something about having things set/drawn in a way when it comes to leg armor or just anything around the thigh area always makes it more sensual to me.
Beautifully terrifying woman, I love the design!
Looks like the game's gonna have a great story!
Nice !!!
awesome work!
I like.
Wow... Nicely done!!

Toby sat on the rock, the one that overlooked their swimming hole, one of the few places on the Tsula Creek deep enough to dive and swim. He was watching Eli move just below the surface. The lean body, with its long legs and arms moving rhythmically as Eli moved through the water. Toby watched the naked form as he had done so for so many years. The slightly long neck, the narrow shoulders leading down to a narrower waist then the curve of each ass cheek followed by the long legs moving in a slow paddling motion. Eli went to the waterfall, the four foot drop from a rock ledge that fed into the pool and flipped swimming on his back. Toby watched as Eli moved by once again unashamed to stare at the naked form, the chest with its nipples riding high on it, the narrow flat stomach then the flaccid cock moving in the currents of the water. He watched him with desire and love and contentment. He didn't understand it, not really, in this place, where so many were unhappy, struggling to make ends meet, some of their former high school classmates married with one or two children already, barely able to feed and clothe themselves. He felt differently, content among the mountains he considered home.
The mountains were a rough country, hard on those who grew up within their valleys and coves, hunting their inclines and fishing their creeks. Each year saw more locals move away heading toward one city or another looking for jobs…looking for a future. Those with land sold out far too often to those coming from the cities to build second homes, rich beyond reason to their thinking, taking land for pleasure, building on so much of it till some areas were lost as far as they were concerned.
Toby watched Eli ease up on a rock at the pool's edge and push his dirty blonde hair out of his eyes, water still trickling down his body. He stood up and pushed his cut offs down his legs along with his briefs. Kicking his feet free he stood naked for a brief moment knowing Eli was looking up at him. He had not always been willing to get naked like this, out in the open, especially in front of Eli. He bent his knees preparing to dive, thinking of the first time he saw Eli, here in this place and how everything was so different.
It was late summer, school to start in another two weeks and Toby had finished helping his father with gathering the vegetables and fruits they would take to market the next day. He pulled his second hand mountain bike from under the porch where he kept it hidden and protected by Otis, a mutt of unknown origins but fiercely protective of his things. He peddled away, heading down the long drive that snaked down the mountain side till he came to the path, the one that cut off the drive just before the main road and headed into the woods. He raced down the steep inclines and stood on the pedals working his legs as hard as he could to get up the other side as he followed the path around to the back of their property on the other side of the ridgeline. There the Tsula Creek ran along the property line, almost in a straight line down the mountain in this section, its small flow cascading over rocks and ledges till it came to the pool that sat down in one deep ravine. It wasn't a large place but the pool it formed was deep and it stretched out for nearly forty feet even though its width was never more than fifteen feet or so.
He eased up and coasted the last hundred feet down the steep incline, hitting the brakes often to keep his speed in check. When he came to the point the path was too rocky, to broken up to continue he laid his bike down and took off on foot. The path cut back and forth as it wound its way down to the creek. Toby thought of how the summer was almost over and he would have to go back to school, something he dreaded, the way it took up so much of his day. The start of school also signaled the end of the gardening and the start of the other work his father did to make money. Back breaking work, cutting down trees, hauling firewood, clearing out undergrowth after it died back. He was only twelve and already had been helping his father for five years. He had to help till his arms ached and he was so tired at the end of the day he would collapse on his bed falling asleep as soon he hit the pillow.
But that was still two weeks away, two weeks he could ride his bike and come to the creek to swim. He always came alone, never inviting any of the other boys from nearby. Some of them knew of the pool on the creek, had asked about it from time to time but he always made excuses, changed the subject or agreed to meet his friends at one of the more public swimming holes on the creeks and river nearby. He knew why he did it, the reason he didn't want them around. The other boys always talked about skinny dipping and it frightened Toby, made him anxious to think about it. He couldn't explain it, didn't understand why he was so afraid of being around the others if they got naked. It wasn't like in P.E. where there was this rush to change, rush to shower and get dressed again. Here it would be just them alone, exposed to each other in a way that Toby knew would mean something different to him. He knew how he struggled in P.E. not to stare at the other boys and realized here it would be worse; much worse. He knew he was different, knew it from the way the other boys began to talk about girls, the way they acted nearly afraid of them at times. The way they talked was the way he felt around them.
He knew what it meant, had heard the words spoken in disparaging ways: fag, cocksucker, queer. He knew what they meant and when he looked at one of the other boys, especially those older, more mature, he felt those words inside, their meaning crystal clear, even to his twelve year old self. So he kept the pool to himself, a place he could come and swim without fear of being found out, for he knew if he should be around other boys they would see it. They would be able to look into his face and see the attraction he felt toward them.
He kept his eyes on the foot path watching for snakes, especially the timber rattlers he found with far too much frequency. As he neared the pool coming up to the rock that overlooked it he heard splashing. He initially thought it a bear but as he listened he knew the unmistakable sound of someone swimming along the surface of the water. He eased out onto the rock where he saw a boy about his own age swimming along. The boy was skinny dipping and Toby pulled back as if he was the one trespassing. He wondered who this boy was and where he came from. He looked across the ravine and up the other side about fifty feet he saw a mountain bike lying on its side.
Toby remembered the Coleman family had sold out back in the spring but he had not heard who had moved onto the old place. He wondered if they were living in the same old house or if they had built a new one or just moved a mobile home onto the place like most of the locals seemed to do now. He eased forward again and saw the boy sitting on the rock edge of the pool kicking his feet. Toby stood staring at this person who looked so much like himself, the same hair color, the same fair skin. 'Would he be coming to our school?' he wondered as he moved closer to the edge to get a better look. His movement must have cast a shadow or made some sound he wasn't aware of for suddenly the boy looked up catching him staring back down.
"Hey…you one of the McConnell's?" the boy yelled up to Toby.
"You must be Tobias?"
"Toby…everyone calls me Toby."
"I'm Eli…actually it's Elijah, Elijah Pruitt. We moved from Spring Creek."
Toby stood on the rock staring down at Eli not knowing what to say. Eli looked at him with curiosity, this boy who just stood there staring.
"Well shit Toby, ya going to jump in or not" Eli suddenly called out. Toby suddenly realized he needed to do something. He eased his t-shirt over his head, moving as if his arms ached in pain. He tossed it down and slowly undid his cut off, the button, then the zipper, slowly pulling it down. Eli watched him with the look of unconcern but it didn't help. When the cut offs fell to his feet he turned to kick them onto top of his shirt as he quickly pushed down his briefs. He didn't slow down as he turned quickly and jumped.
Toby jumped now, his dive nearly perfect as he went over the edge and hit the water with the smallest of disturbances. He remembered how over those two weeks before school he found himself able to relax around Eli, those inner demons kept in check for Eli had been so unassuming, so opening friendly that he soon forgot them.
Surfacing in the cool slow moving waters, he looked over at Eli sitting on the rock watching him. He remembered how things began to change between them when they turned fourteen, how he had begun to pull away from Eli as he fought the feelings he felt toward him. He couldn't control it and as they matured and grew older he pulled away time and time again. But Eli wouldn't allow it, never let him isolate himself. Now it seemed so silly, the whole thing, all those emotions he kept bottled up afraid to admit for fear of losing the closest friend he had. The one person who looked so much like himself, except much more confident, more assured of themself.
When they turned seventeen, their birthdays only two weeks apart in early March, they had drove Eli's dad's old truck to Asheville, just the two of them, going to dinner then to a movie. For month's prior there was a tension between them, something unsaid. Toby knew he always had been one to keep secrets, to be denying one thing after the next. It had gotten worse at school when some of the boys were talking about going out with girls and one asked Toby why he and Eli had not gone out with anyone. It was a moment of clarity, the fact neither had gone out with a girl, Toby knowing he had no desire. But Eli was another story, for he had never done anything to indicate he wasn't straight but Toby knew then Eli had not tried to go out with anyone for several of the girls had tried to get him to ask them out, some even approaching Toby to see if he would find out if Eli was interested in them. Eli always had an excuse, some reason he wouldn't go out with one or another of the girls. Toby just never really considered it any other way, naively he knew, so afraid of his own feelings, scared to death they would reveal themselves he didn't notice how Eli had kept himself isolated as well. They spent a lot of time together Toby knew but he also knew his work with his father and Eli's part time job at Ray's Auto Repair kept them apart for long periods of time. Time Eli could have been going out on dates.
On that March night they drove back from Asheville initially talking about the movie, reliving the best parts but as they got out of town and on the narrow two lane highway that snaked through the mountains they grew quiet, riding in silence for a long time, Eli slowing for the sharp turns and guiding the old truck around each one, something in the bed rolling back and forth each time.
Eli, when being serious always called Toby by his full name, speaking it quietly, reverently.
"Yeah, Elijah?" Toby replied using Eli's full name in return as he always did in such moments.
"Do you not like any girls in our school?"
"I…don't dislike them, it's just…" Toby stammered, unable to say what he felt.
"Yeah…" Eli said in a low voice after a brief silence. As it happened far too often in the last few months, a tension charged the air of the truck cab, one of those uncomfortable moments neither had the courage to cut through it.
Toby surfaced on the opposite end of the pool combing his hair back out of his face. The water felt good against his skin, cooling, caressing as it moved slowly downstream. He looked over at Eli who was looking upward at the moment. No doubt some bird having caught his attention. Toby swam slowly back toward the waterfall till he felt the water cascading over his shoulders. He stared at Eli, looking at the familiar body, so similar to his own and most of the guys their age. Lean frames but strong from their labors, every move of an arm or leg flexed the lean muscle and their torsos were so smooth, nearly flat from chest down. He eased away from the edge and slowly sunk beneath the surface making his way toward Eli.
Everything changed last March, the Sunday after the big birthday celebration for their eighteenth birthdays. Their families had a combined birthday party for them, with family and friends gathered together. The day had been perfect, unseasonably warm for March in the mountains and Toby's mother had set up everything in the yard with the picnic table covered in hot dogs and burgers, his father making ice cream with the old hand crank churn and their friends horsing around, playing football or just hanging out. By day's end, the sun dropping down below the ridgeline, everyone was exhausted and one by one slowly left the party letting it finally wind down. Toby and Eli ended up in Toby's room playing new video games on the small television that sat on his desk, the two of them sitting sideways on the bed, their backs against the wall.
They talked quietly, both tired and subdued from the long day. They sat side by side, bodies touching and bumping against each other. They enjoyed their closeness even though neither admitted to the real reason. The talked about graduating in May, their last year of school and how they would need to find jobs. In the past their conversations were always full of bravado, big plans for the future, fantasies of moving away, going somewhere exotic. As time passed, the day of graduation getting closer and closer, their fantasies began to erode away, their plans more pragmatic, both wondering what they could do to stay in their mountain community. Eli left around ten with plans to meet at the pool the next afternoon.
Toby arrived first, stripping off his t-shirt and cut-offs. He stood naked on the rock overlooking the pool while the cool air under the trees made goosebumps pop up. He pumped his arms then bent his knees and dove. The water was cold, a shock to his system. He swam beneath the surface till he came to the end of the pool and climbed out sitting on the edge. The air felt much warmer now on his skin as the water trickled off of him.
"Is it really cold?"
Toby looked up and saw Eli on the rock tossing his t-shirt down then undoing his cut-offs. The shorts fell around Eli's ankles and Toby looked at the familiar body, the long lean torso, the fair skin and Eli's sex hanging over its sac. Toby wondered if graduation would eventually separate them, each going their own way and it scared him, feared the loss of Eli in his life, even though it was still so unfulfilling for him in ways he could not admit.
Eli looked down at Toby and forced a smile as he wondered what Toby was thinking for the look on his face. He felt a change between them and knew turning eighteen and graduation fast approaching gave a sense of something ending, an approaching finale. He forced a smile back at Toby, bent his knees and dove. He let his momentum take him deeply into the pool before turning upward. He swam toward Toby, a slow easy rhythm to his strokes with his legs. The water grew clearer as he neared the surface, eventually breaking through just out from Toby.
"Damn, it is still cold."
"I told you" Toby replied laughing.
"Jesus, it doesn't even start to feel warm after a while" said Eli as he climbed out next to Toby. Shivering as he rubbed his arms then the top of his thighs.
"Where did your cock go?" Toby jokingly asked pointing at the shriveled up cock.
"Look at yours! It was bigger when you were 12" Eli sarcastically replies.
Toby pushed Eli over who pushed back. They began to wrestle, trying to force the other back into the cold water. They had never wrestled at the pool before, only out in a field or in one or the other's room; never at the pool naked.
Both were laughing hysterically as they tried to get the upper hand on the other. They were so alike, same lean muscular builds with bodies practically the same size, it was a draw. Each having a moment of getting an upper hand by some quick maneuver before the other regained and brought things back to an equilibrium.
"Fuck" Eli uttered as he bear-hug Toby and brought both of them into the water. They surfaced close to each other, face to face, hair down over the foreheads and in their eyes as the water ran from it. Beneath the surface their legs and arms bumped each other but neither backed up at first.
"It's still cold as shit" said Eli.
"Yeah I'm freezing. Let's climb out and get on the rock. At least there is some sun hitting it."
Eli swam to the bank with Toby right behind him. Eli made his way up and onto the bank then helped Toby pulling him by the wrist till they stood side by side. Neither saying anything as Eli continued to led the way, climbing upward till they were on the rock overlooking the pool. They laid next to each other, arms nearly touching, eyes closed, letting their skin soak up the heat of the sun. They shivered till their skin dried then settled down, almost falling asleep. Toby shifted, moved his leg to get it off a rough area and bumped up against Eli's foot. Neither pulled away.
"What?" Toby replied, his voice barely audible.
"Do you feel like this could come to an end? I mean really end if something doesn't change. Graduation is about two months away and…we'll have to find work, wherever we can find it, and…" Eli stammered, struggling to find the words. "I want things to stay the same but not…I mean I want something else. You know?"
"I know" Toby admitted then turned to Eli opening his eyes to see him staring up into the sky. "I wish…things could be different."
"How?" Eli asked turning toward Toby rolling over on his side propping up with one arm. "You think if we lived in some city things would be different?"
Toby nodded and looked away.
"Why? Why can't we…" Eli said cutting himself off. He reached over and put his hand on Toby's chest and felt the smooth skin, slick from being in the water, the warmth of contact building with the touch. Toby looked at him, scared at first, afraid this was Eli horsing around, afraid it might be a dream, that he had actually fallen asleep, that none of this was real.
Toby took a deep breath and rose up closing the distance between them and Eli quickly moved to him bringing their lips together. They kissed passionately, as if it were their last, afraid to stop. Eli moved on top of Toby, smoothly sliding over him till he rested on top feeling the heat of Toby against his own skin. Toby brought his arms around Eli and hugged him tightly. For a long time, they kissed, while hands roamed over the other touching and caressing. Nothing else mattered, no outside thoughts distracted them as they rolled over the rock. Then their arousal grew till they were no longer simply caressing each other. They were more aggressive, physical with in their play.
Toby couldn't stop himself for he was afraid this moment would get away. He ran a hand down between their bodies and took Eli, felt the girth of it and he manipulated it with his fingers. He felt the hard shaft, the way the head tapered in shape and the slickness drooling from the slit. Eli pumped it through his hand as he felt the kisses on his neck, the nip of his earlobe and the warm breath that caressed his skin. He rolled Eli over on his back as he moved on top. He kissed him back, tongues dueling, as hands moved up his sides, over his back and down to his ass, cupping each cheek pulling them together. He felt his own erection, so hard already, as he pumped his hips pushing it along the side of Eli's, the two slipping by each other, slick with their arousal.
Toby sat up and for the first time they looked at each other. Eli's hands rested on his thighs and the touch was soft, comforting, the fingers moving over his smooth skin. He rose up on his knees, reached back and lifted Eli's cock, holding it vertical.
"Toby…are you sure" Eli whispered as Toby eased his body down till the slick head pressed against his opening. He held his breath as he let the weight of his body bring him downward, Eli's cock breaching his opening, painfully stretching him open. He held still as Eli caressed his thighs, ran one hand up his stomach and over his chest. He felt himself relax, felt the pain lessen till he could take it, letting another inch push into his hole. Slowly, Toby took Eli till he had all of it, every inch. He leaned forward and kissed Eli feeling his own erection rake over Eli's stomach.
"You okay?" Eli whispered.
"Yeah…I feel good" Toby replied sitting up so he could move his body upward, then back down, over and over and over, his pace slowly increasing. "It feels so good…you inside me" Toby uttered as he began to fuck himself on Eli's cock.
Eli watched the familiar form, the lean body, so smooth, boyish in appearance, much like his own. He watched the way his movement, up and down on his cock made muscle flex, the skin tightened, and eventually as Toby's pace increased, the skin seemed to glow, the surface glistening as sweat beaded up then trickled down. Toby kept up his pace, up and down, and Eli watched how his cock appeared then disappeared. He felt it, the way Toby's hole milked his cock, up and down the shaft, the tight opening squeezing it keeping him aroused, so hard he ached for release.
Eli couldn't take it, the sensations Toby was giving him and he lunged upward, shoving into Toby all the way as he felt his release, the surge of cum through his cock. Each ejaculation rocked him, caused him to shove upward trying to get further into Toby, to push himself to impossible depths as he filled him.
Toby felt it, the way Eli came inside him with the thrusts upward. He slowed to a stop leaning back, his body stretched out tight, feeling every upward thrust and the way Eli's cock bore into him. Spent, Eli fell still beneath him and he moved to his side, their naked bodies pressed together, still hot from their exertions. He kissed Eli on the side of the mouth who turned toward him and they kissed once again slow and gentle. He felt Eli's hand move down his body till it grasped his cock, fingers wrapped tightly around the shaft stroking its length. Toby couldn't hold back, felt the urgency of his need and he moved over Eli pushing his legs apart. He felt Eli's legs rise up either side of his body as he pushed himself against the tight opening, feeling it resist him.
"Tobias…put it in me" Eli uttered and Toby pushed with his hips breaching the tight ring of Eli's opening penetrating him, inch by inch, slowly working himself into Eli until their bodies pressed tightly together. Toby was too aroused, too desperate and he quickly fell into a furious pace, fucking Eli with the full length of his cock till he struggled to hold back, felt his whole body tighten up, every muscle straining with his exertion and he shoved inward filling Eli.
Toby rose up through the surface of the slow moving waters moving slowly toward Eli who was leaning back with his legs spread as rays of sunlight filtered through the tree canopy moved over his skin. Toby eased up out of the water and moved up between Eli's legs, eased up like the predator stalking his prey. Eli flinched when he brushed against his legs. Toby kept moving up careful to place his hands on either side of Eli's prone body as Eli raised his head and watched him. Toby moved over him till their cock brushed together and Toby eased down letting the weight of his body rest on him.
Eli brought his knees up, moved into a position to take Toby, as their bodies moved against each other, the press of flesh, the touch of fingers gently raking over skin and lips locked together with tongues dueling. Toby pressed against Eli till he penetrated him, pushing inward till they were locked together. He moved in a slow rhythm, the rocking of his hips as he worked his cock inside of Eli, pushing inward and rotating his hips.
The penetration filled him, every push inward and Eli moaned beneath Toby as he hugged their bodies together. Toby increased his pace as his arousal grew. Eli pleaded for Toby to fuck harder and Toby rose up over him and began to piston his cock with a urgency, a need for release. Eli stretched out beneath him, arms over his head and legs spread wide apart, his body completely open to Toby taking every thrust. It was Toby's second time today and he fucked a long time, cock thrusting through Eli's tight opening feeling it milk his cock till he finally couldn't take it. The surge of release overpowering, the way it made his whole body rigid, every muscle tight and he slammed inward with his first release then jabbed his cock inward with each ejaculation. He kept working his hips till he was spent and his cock was pumping slickly through his load before finally collapsing on top of Eli.
They lay still a long time with just the sound of birds and the wind through the trees. Toby rolled over next to Eli and they looked at each other smiling at their intimacy, this secret passion between them. They knew many in the community suspected something between them, the way they were always together but it was never mentioned in front of them. They knew eventually it would become obvious, their commitment to each other. They were repairing the old house Toby's great grandparents had lived in, a simple little house that sat on the other side of the property hidden within the woods. Each had found a job down in town and for now it was enough to get them started. It was their first summer after graduation and they had plans, ways to make their way in the world in this place, the mountains of North Carolina.

Hip Pain & Injury
Article by John Miller
Hip Pain
Hip pain and joint injury are common for all age groups. The hip joint and its integration with your pelvis, SIJ and lumbar spine (lower back) make it a complex region to correctly analyse and assess any dysfunction.
Your hip function can also be affected by your lower limb biomechanics involving your knee, foot and ankle, plus your thigh and calf muscles.
To successfully treat your hip pain and joint dysfunction it relies upon a thorough examination of your:
- entire lower limb (foot, ankle, knee, hip)
- lumbar spine
- pelvis and SIJ function and alignment
- deep hip muscle control and activation patterns
- middle and superficial hip muscle control, strength and function
- deep abdominal, core and pelvic floor muscle control
- upper thigh muscle length and strength (e.g. quadriceps, adductors, hamstrings, and ITB)
- neural tissue extensibility e.g. sciatic and femoral nerve
- hip joint biomechanics as a whole and in isolation
Hip pain is a specialist interest of the Physio Works physiotherapists. Your physiotherapist will spend the time with you to fully assess the origin of your hip pain and investigate whether it is a hip joint, muscular, nerve or biomechanics issue.
Only after a thorough hip assessment will your hip pain be effectively rehabilitated to relieve your current hip pain and joint dysfunction, plus prevent the return of any future hip pain.
Common Sources of Hip Pain
Hip Pain Treatment
At PhysioWorks, we have several our highly skilled physiotherapists with a special interest in hip pain and joint injury. Traditionally, most hip joint conditions have often been treated with only short-term aims in mind. e.g. cortisone injections or painkillers.
One of the differences that you'll notice with Physio Works treatment is the thorough analysis of WHY you actually have your hip pain, rather than only treating your symptomatic pain. We strongly believe that if you don't correct why you are vulnerable to hip injury then it is only a matter of time before your hip pain returns.
Recent research findings have modified modern physiotherapy treatment approaches to hip pain over the past year or two. Together with a thorough hip assessment, your hip treatment can progress quickly to get you pain-free and perform your normal sport or daily activities in the shortest time possible.

But Environmental Protection Agency administrator Christie Todd Whitman claims this won't compromise air quality, CBS News Correspondent Bill Plante reports.
"This means we will be able to maintain clean air standards but allow for additional supply and this will help control cost impact," Whitman said in a brief interview following a speech at a National Governors Association meeting.
Whitman said the EPA's policy change "certainly should stabilize prices and keep them from having the kind of spike that you saw last summer."
She said would notify refiners on Monday that they can begin making cleaner-burning summer gasoline with the relaxed standards. "The letter we are sending gives them (refiners) the authority to go ahead."
Appearing with Whitman, House Speaker Dennis Hastert, R-Ill., said "Some people have predicted $3.00 for the cost per gallon this year and we hope this precautionary step will take care of that."
Gasoline prices in Milwaukee and Chicago soared as high as $2.75 a gallon last summer because of supply problems and the high costs of blending the fuel. The high prices sparked consumer outrage, congressional hearings and a federal antitrust investigation.
Environmentalists, still upset by the president's recent reversal of a campaign promise to reduce carbon dioxide emissions from electric power plants, aren't buying the assertion that the new gas formula won't pollute.
"This has a health impact, and I think the people who live in Wisconsin and Illinois who will be breathing this air that's less healthy now would think that this is a significant impact," said Deb Callahan of the League of Conservation Voters.
EPA's action means gasoline sold in Chicago and Milwaukee can temporarily contain larger amounts of pollutants known as volatile organic compounds (VOCs).
The VOC standard would be raised to 0.3 pounds per square inch Reid vapor pressure which measures the volatility of fuel from the current 0.2 pounds.
When added to gasoline, ethanol increases the evaporation rate of fuel, causing more VOC emissions, but ethanol reduces carbon monoxide emissions. Both pollutants play a role in ozone formation.
The EPA will not expand the relaxed standards to other areas because Chicago and Milwaukee are the only major cities that depend exclusively on ethanol-blended gasoline, Whitman said.
The EPA requires most major U.S. cities to use cleaner-burning gasoline during the hot summer months to reduce smog and air pollution. Illinois and Wisconsin refiners typically blend corn-based ethanol with a special kind of highly-refined gasoline to achieve the stricter standards.

Comforters on sale buying tips
Choosing a comforter is not an easy task, one has to look at various aspects when he or she is buying comforters on sale. Choosing an appropriate comforter will guarantee you pleasant sleep which will keep you relaxed, helping you to stay fresh all day and eventually help you work better and will lead to profit. There are many advertisements for sales online or in the newspapers and hoardings which sell comforters at a cheap price, but one needs understand about different features and types of comforters for sale before buying one. They are filling, material, thickness, length.
1 – Filling
If you are the light sleeper type person, you should go for the coarse synthetic filling comforters. They are a touch rough and are generally light, cheap and easy to handle. A comforter filled with wool or cotton is widely used by people as it is softer and more comfortable. Feathers are also sometimes used as fillings. They too are comfortable but do not provide enough insulation during the cold weather as much as the cotton filled comforters.
Comforters on sale
2 – Outer stitched material
The outer stitched material selection is crucial when selecting a comforter as it is the thing that you will be in contact with when you are in bed. You don't want it to be of a synthetic or coarse material until you have personal preference for it. The fabric used for the outer stitching should be soft, smooth and easy to wash. The most preferred material for this is silk. The has all the features as mentioned previously, cotton is also cheaper option though it would seem bulky for many.
3 – Thickness
Choosing the thickness of your comforter is a matter of personal choice as well. A thick comforter may not be as pleasant looking but it will surely provide you with the heat and you will just want to be snuggled in your bed, while a comforter of medium thickness will be perfect for working class people who don't want much hassle over the comforter when setting it up before they go to bed.
Comforter sale
4 – Length / Size
The size of the comforter that you buy must be bigger or about the size of your bed as you don't want your comforter to be just like a blanket which gives you no comfort. It's better to have more than less.
Practical analysis
You go to a sale and find some comforters that are in your price range in which you are interested in, what do you do?
You first ask the seller about the things we have discussed. Try to gather as much information about it as you can. If the seller seems pushy or doesn't know, don't buy them, because there is a high chance that these may be the old and used comforters which are being sold again to you. This usually happens. The sellers just replace the outer stitching with attractive coverings to appeal to the consumers like you and they usually fall for it. Have patience and buy smart. A good way to check if a product is genuine is ask the seller to show you the filling. If the filling seems old and rusty dust, it's clear that the product is not genuine. You can look elsewhere.

Google has lauched the much-anticipated Google Health, but only mentioned officially by Marissa Mayer. According to Google, it offers users a safe and secure way to collect, store, and manage their medical records and health information by building an online profile, and educate yourself about health issues. Google notes the service is currently English and US only and for users age 18+, though you can access the interface from other countries too.
How many of us have touched, or even seen, our medical records? In this day and age of information, isn't it crazy that you don't have a copy of your medical records under your control? You could use those records to develop a better understanding of your health and ultimately get better care. It's your data about your own health; why shouldn't you own and control it?

For a game that probably won't be out for a couple of years, there's plenty of hype already for Mass Effect 4, the upcoming addition to BioWare's extremely popular and critically-acclaimed science fiction RPG franchise. Previous talk from the developers has suggested that Mass Effect 4 could either focus on one of the secondary characters from the original trilogy, or could be a completely unrelated storyline set in the same universe, but at this point most of the details are still being kept very secret.
It's actually a little erroneous to refer to the next game as Mass Effect 4, since BioWare has previously been very firm in their assurances that the game won't feature Commander Shepard, and that to think of it as a direct sequel to the previous games would be a "disservice." However, until the actual title of the game is announced (hopefully the writers will go with Mass Effect: The Next Generation), we'll continue to use Mass Effect 4 as a temporary moniker.
Last month, BioWare Montreal's Studio Director Yanick Roy asked fans on Twitter to suggest things that they'd like to see in the teaser trailer for Mass Effect 4 (meaning that one is close to being unveiled?), and within a matter of hours had received over 200 responses. He has since continued to volunteer small pieces of information and teases in answer to some of the many questions that he's received from fans of the series
@simonjthomas Too soon to say, but we'll be sure to be friendly both to old fans and to newcomers.— Yanick Roy (@YanickRRoy) July 16, 2013
Unless you have a serious mental block when it comes to navigating dialog trees, the gameplay of the Mass Effect series has so far not been notably difficult or confusing for those new to gaming or to the RPG shooter genre. The central threat of the Reapers, however, has spanned all three games and those who picked up only Mass Effect 2 or Mass Effect 3 may have found themselves missing out on the many references to events from earlier games. With that in mind, cutting ties with the existing storylines could definitely make the next Mass Effect game more appealing to those who don't want to invest 70-100 hours into previous games just to get caught up.
For LGBT gamers and those who prefer to explore same-sex relationships within the Mass Effect universe, Roy has also indicated that the developers intend to continue having the option of gay relationships. Though this has become fairly common in modern RPGs, there was a minor controversy when it was revealed that Mass Effect 3 would be the first in the series to offer same-sex relationships, so it's a relief to hear that BioWare isn't planning to quietly remove this option from their future stories.
Most of the questions asked have been related to the story and characters, since these are the elements that really drive the Mass Effect experience. However, when quizzed on the matter of how similar or different the gameplay would be to previous installments in the franchise. Roy said that they plan to draw inspiration from Mass Effect 1, as well as Mass Effect 2 & 3. Could this mean that we'll see the Mako back in action and bouncing cheerfully over the surfaces of alien planets once more?
Roy is still taking questions on his Twitter account (though obviously there are some that he can't answer), so if you've got a burning inquiry of your own regarding Mass Effect 4, why not take it to the studio director himself?

Old Seeder Planted
These days not having my Dad around is really a difficult thing for me and I would be happy if he was here saying I can't do this or that believe me.
But...What is good about not having him around to tell me what I can't do? Well this would be one thing. He would be saying...Oh that old piece of junk why would you want that? I would say well it would make a nice planter. He would just shake his head. Since he isn't here to say I can't do it, then of course that is the first thing I had to do. I had my brother drag the old seeder up to my house and then I had my son get me a load of loam with the backhoe. He is having a fun time playing with all the equipment. He does really well with it actually. He must get that from his Grandpa.
Anyhow...after I got the thing filled with loam I dug holes and filled them with potting soil and then I planted it with mums. I got them at the 99 cent store. So hopefully they will be o.k. and grow and fill in. They looked really healthy and were not root bound at all. I think it turned out pretty nice.
I am sure my Dad is looking down on me and still shaking his head, but smiling at the way it all came together. Thanks Dad! I miss you!

Happy July
Getting back to normal here as best as I can. Took a venture out on the weekend. Got to see a movie. Oz the Great and Powerful. Also went to the store and found this cute huge cup/saucer, rock and mushroom. Planted with Semps.
My Mom is doing o.k. Had hip replacement and is at rehab. Slow process.

The parole officer's entries about Thomas Trantino's new female companion were bland, with no hint that the officer knew of her convictions and prison sentences since the mid-1990's for forgery in Florida and bank robbery in Newark, as well as parole violations for drug abuse.
After a visit on Aug. 31, the officer reported simply that he had seen Mr. Trantino, a paroled killer of two policemen, with the woman, Carmen Gonzalez, outside Mr. Trantino's apartment here. After visits on Sept. 24 and Oct. 26, the officer reported that Mr. Trantino had told him that Ms. Gonzalez was not there and that he was not having any problems.
But now Mr. Trantino is back in jail, held without bail on a parole violation charge based on assault charges filed by Ms. Gonzalez on Nov. 6, accusing him of beating her five times in the previous 10 days.
After 21 quiet, trouble-free months on parole, Mr. Trantino, 65, one of New Jersey's most notorious criminals in recent decades, faces the possibility of returning to prison. He was freed in early 2002 by an order of the New Jersey Supreme Court after serving 38 years for fatally shooting two police officers, Sgt. Peter Voto, 40, and Gary Tedesco, a 22-year-old rookie patrolman in a Lodi, N.J., bar in 1963.
The New Jersey State Parole Board has the power to revoke his parole and send him back to prison for at least several more years if it finds ''clear and convincing'' evidence that he violated the law by beating Ms. Gonzalez. That standard of proof is less a hurdle than the ''beyond a reasonable doubt'' standard required for criminal convictions.Continue reading the main story
Although Ms. Gonzalez denied her charges a day after she filed them, the authorities are pressing ahead with their case. Mr. Trantino's lawyers and supporters insist that he is innocent. They are raising questions about the reliability of Ms. Gonzalez and portraying Mr. Trantino as a big-hearted man who risked his future by trying to help Ms. Gonzalez, a woman with a troubled past.
While the parole officer's references to Ms. Gonzalez are nondescript, his neighbors in the modest row houses on Merrimac Street here say the 33-year-old widow and mother of two became a stormy presence in Mr. Trantino's life after she moved into his apartment in August, shortly after she was released from prison.
They describe her as quick-tempered, noisy, argumentative and generally unpleasant. ''She just seems mad all the time,'' said one neighbor, Willie Shouse. He recalled seeing her throw a glass of water at Mr. Trantino as they sat outside their apartment. Often, Mr. Shouse said, if Ms. Gonzalez was walking unsteadily toward their apartment, Mr. Trantino would come out and help her inside.
''He was always protecting her, helping her,'' said another neighbor, Barbara Garrett. ''You couldn't say anything bad about her around him.''
On Nov. 6, after a heated argument in the downtown Camden office where Mr. Trantino counseled ex-convicts and troubled youths veering toward crime, Ms. Gonzalez accused him of hitting and kicking her five times since Oct. 27. Although she recanted the next day, Mr. Trantino is in Camden County Jail without bail, pending a parole board hearing, on charges of assault and violating his parole, and he faces the possibility of returning to state prison. He had served 38 years of a life sentence before being paroled.
Sergeant Voto's 76-year-old brother, Andrew, the ailing former police chief in Lodi, said Mr. Trantino deserved to go back to prison.
''He's unstable,'' Mr. Voto said. ''The only thing that surprises me is he got this far as a free man, with the atrocities he committed against two police officers.'' Mr. Voto criticized the New Jersey Supreme Court ruling in early 2001 that ordered Mr. Trantino freed.
Over the two decades before the ruling, the parole board rejected Mr. Trantino's applications nine times, against a backdrop of rallies and vigils by the families of the slain policemen, angry protests by police officers and denunciations of Mr. Trantino by politicians. In its last rejection, in 1999, the board cited his frequent beatings of his wife, Helene, in the months before the murders as grounds that he was likely to commit new crimes if freed.
But the court's ruling criticized the board for bowing to years of political pressure to keep Mr. Trantino in prison and ordered him freed.
Mr. Voto contended that Mr. Trantino's latest arrest vindicated the board's position. ''The Supreme Court looks at things through rose-colored glasses,'' he said. ''I was right on this, and the Supreme Court was wrong.''
Mr. Trantino's lawyers deny that he beat Ms. Gonzalez. They say he has been victimized by a troubled, unpredictable, suicidal woman. One lawyer, Roger A. Lowenstein, who visited Mr. Trantino in the jail three days after his arrest, suggested that Mr. Trantino had put himself at risk of legal troubles by trying to help Ms. Gonzalez, when he lacked the skills of a professional psychologist or social worker. ''He was genuinely worried about this woman when he should have been worried about himself,'' Mr. Lowenstein said. ''This woman is desperately in need of help, and she didn't get it.''
Two days before Mr. Trantino's latest arrest, Mr. Lowenstein said, Ms. Gonzalez threatened to stab herself with a knife and Mr. Trantino took her to Cooper University Hospital here. She was kept overnight for observation, he said.
''It's not very often it's the accused abuser who brings the victim to the doctor or a hospital,'' Mr. Lowenstein said. He said she was distraught because she did not have custody of her two children and was apparently having trouble getting off drugs despite enrollment in a methadone-maintenance program. He said Ms. Gonzalez never took illegal drugs in Mr. Trantino's presence.
Citing federal laws protecting patient privacy, officials at Cooper University Hospital would not confirm or deny whether Ms. Gonzalez was admitted in early November.
During the argument in the Camden office building that led to Mr. Trantino's arrest, Mr. Lowenstein said, Mr. Trantino restrained Ms. Gonzalez in a stairway because she was trying to go to the roof of the three-story building and jump.
The Camden County prosecutor, Vincent P. Sarubbi, said Mr. Trantino had told police officers of that suicide threat. But Mr. Sarubbi also said Ms. Gonzalez had denied any thoughts of suicide and contended that Mr. Trantino had illegally restrained her.
Mr. Trantino met Ms. Gonzalez early this year, said Priscilla Adams, an official of the Haddonfield Monthly Meeting, a Quaker congregation in southern New Jersey that created Mr. Trantino's $25,000-a-year counseling job. At the time, Ms. Gonzalez was in a women's prison in western New Jersey on a parole violation related to drug abuse, records show. Ms. Adams said a Quaker professor who taught writing at the prison had asked her and Mr. Trantino if Ms. Gonzalez could enroll in the counseling program after she was released. They accepted Ms. Gonzalez, and she entered the program as both a client and a volunteer worker in February, Ms. Adams said.
Shortly after her release, Ms. Gonzalez asked her parole officer if she could move into Mr. Trantino's apartment, according to the parole board. The officer rejected her request, citing her need, as a recovering addict, to live in a setting with better services, said a spokesman for the parole board, Edward Bray. She moved to a privately run center for recovering addicts in Mullica Hill, N.J., about 15 miles south of Camden.
Mr. Bray said Mr. Trantino's parole officer, who worked in a different board office than Ms. Gonzalez's parole officer, had never learned of Ms. Gonzalez's request. He also said that nothing had prompted the parole officer to see if Ms. Gonzalez's name was in the parole board's centralized database of parolees.
Parolees are not prohibited from living together, Mr. Bray said. But it is best for them to live in a setting that offers the fewest opportunities for parole violations, he said.
In mid-May, despite counseling, Ms. Gonzalez was returned to prison for another parole violation related to drug abuse, Mr. Bray said.
After she was released in mid-August, she and Mr. Trantino became romantically involved and started living together. Ms. Gonzalez stopped going to the counseling service, Ms. Adams said. At the request of Mr. Trantino's lawyer, Ms. Adams declined to discuss Ms. Gonzalez's time in the program or her relationship with Mr. Trantino.
Of Mr. Trantino, Ms. Adams said: ''He's a person with a good heart. He really wants to help everybody.'' She said the Quakers support him and have started a defense fund for him.
Liz Ashley, who owns the building that houses the counseling program, said she often saw Ms. Gonzalez there and described her as emotional, angry and hot-blooded. Of Mr. Trantino, she said, ''He's been peaceful and kind and popular and loving.''
Until his arrest this month, Mr. Trantino had compiled an unblemished record in 21 months on parole, Mr. Bray said, adding, ''He's had an absolutely unremarkable parole and adjustment up until this.''Continue reading the main story

Being built by the Overmarine (Rodriguez Group) ship building company in Italy the Z ELLERSTON is 50 m 163 (foot) in length. Christened for 2008 the recent interior design and decor illustrates the creative modernity of the design work of Overmarine. Her old, former or build project names were Mangusta 165. She is able to reach a high speed of 40 knots.
Z ELLERSTON is the second yacht in the 165 series. She was built for an Australian owner as a replacement for his yacht called Z, a Mangusta 105 but was then sold.
Overmarine was the naval architect involved in the professional vessel composition for Z ELLERSTON. Also the company Overmarine and Stefano Righini successfully collaborated on this venture. Interior designer Overmarine was employed for the internal internal ambience. In 2008 she was formally launched to triumph in Viareggio and following sea trials and detailing was afterwards delivered to the new owner. Overmarine (Rodriguez Group) completed their new build motor yacht in Italy. A fairly large feeling is achieved with a widest beam (width) of 9.2 metres or 30.18 ft. With a 1.6m (5.25ft) draught (maximum depth) she is fairly shallow. The material composite was used in the building of the hull of the motor yacht. Her superstructure above deck is created out of composite.
The 16V 4000 M90 engine installed in the motor yacht is made by MTU. Her propulsion units are tripple water jets. The engine of the ship produces 4556 horse power (or 3399 kilowatts). She is fitted with 3 engines. The sum power for the boat is thus 13668 HP / 10196 KW.
The propulsion comes from three 4556 Horse Power or 3399 Kilowatts MTU. Model: 16V 4000 M90 diesel. - Total engine power output 13668 HP /10196 KW. - Approximate Cruise Speed is 36 knots. - Her top Speed is around 40 knots. - Range in nautical Miles is 600 at a speed of 36 knots. - Fuel tanks: 40337 L. - Fresh water: 4000.00. - Beam: 9.2m/30.18ft. - Waterline Length (LWL): 40.5m/132.87ft. - Draught Maximum: 1.6m/5.25ft.

Our correspondent gathered that things came to a head recently when stakeholders of the party allegedly engaged in fisticuffs during one of their meetings.
The Gyakyol entity in Konshisha council of the Benue North East senatorial district is the constituency of Senator Barnabas Gemade.
The stakeholders had called an emergency meeting chaired by Chief Atumba Shima to resist moves by some stakeholders to jettison the existing sharing formula and entrench a divisive policy in the clans of the area.
In a communique signed by the leader of Gyakyol Concerned Citizens, Dr. Linus Ikpaahindi, the stakeholders said there was a serious crisis occasioned by moves to lump the two clans of Gaav by the changing the sharing formula between the people of Iwarev, Mbavaa of Gaav and Shangev Tiev areas.
"The meeting dwelt on political crisis on the pending elections of chairman and other officials of the local government.
"That the area of authority was specified as Iwarev, Mbavaa and Shangev Tiev clans and that the chairmanship of the local government was also shared along the three clans, with Iwarev being left behind," Ikpaahindi said in the communique.
He further noted that crisis had hit the party because some political bigwigs wanted to fracture the process and forcefully change the sharing formula, hence the urgent need for the APC to review the recent zoning for the position of chairman and reassign same to Iwarev clan for fairness and objectivity.

Following the illegal timber trail from one of its main sources, Indonesia, to its ultimate destination in the West.

Reporter: Stephen McDonell
It's boom-time in the worldwide timber smuggling racket.Swathes of "protected" forests in Asia, Africa and South America are being illegally cut and shipped abroad for use in building materials, furniture and sundry items like billiard cues and picture frames.It's a $20 billion a year trade, a highly organised crime that not only destroys entire eco-systems and increases global warming but also deals ruthlessly with anyone standing in its way. Four Corners follows the illegal timber trail from one of its main sources, Indonesia, where 70 per cent of all logging is thought to be illegal, to its ultimate destination in the west. The trail starts in Kalimantan province where regional warlords are tearing away the jungle habitat of endangered orang utans. Kidnapping, bribery and standover tactics are the warlords' means of doing business.The few brave people who resist these crime bosses are lucky to escape with their lives. One of them, a local journalist, tells of the machete attack that left him so badly wounded he was sent to the morgue. Local police support the thuggery by doing nothing. The timber is hauled out of the forest, cut into planks and sent to neighbouring countries. By now it has been "laundered" so that its illegal origins are virtually impossible to prove. Stolen timber has become, for all intents and purposes, legal wood.By the time it is offloaded at western ports no one knows its provenance. Importers candidly admit to Four Corners reporter Stephen McDonell that they are probably buying illegally obtained timber. On the demand side, few questions are asked. The wood comes cheaply and, for the time being anyway, plentifully enough. The reality, as McDonell's report shows, is that the timber mafia flourish amid the complexity of international legal jurisdictions and trading rules. Only co-ordinated international and local action will defeat the timber mafia – unless the timber runs out first."The Timber Mafia" was first broadcast on ABC TV on Monday 29 July, 2002.

That is the challenge that is put forward in this journal. The challenge applies to the fields of sleep research and clinical sleep medicine at all levels and disciplines. This journal is to be eclectic in scope and ambitious in goal, from basic to applied science, from microscope to macroscopic function, from nucleic acid to neuronal systems, from fetus to adult, and from primitive organisms to the highly evolved. The fields of sleep research and circadian biology have existed for many years; the field of modern clinical sleep medicine only 40 years or so. But how long did we know about sleep before we knew about REM and NREM (Aserinsky and Kleitman, 1953)? How long did we know that most of us slept at night before we knew about the supra- chiasmatic nucleus, the circadian clock, and their mode of control (Rusak and Zucker, 1979; Rosenwasser, 1988)? How long did we know about narcolepsy before we knew about the DQB1*0602 genetic locus and about the orexin/hypocretin neurotrans- mitter system (Mignot et al., 1997; Nishino et al., 2000; Taheri et al., 2002)? How much did we know about neuroanatomy and neu- rophysiology before we started to unravel the interplay of central systems controlling sleep? How long did we know about obstruc- tive sleep apnea before we recognized it as a common disorder with a simple effective treatment (Sullivan et al., 1981)? How long did we ascribe a psychodynamic dream interpretation to sleepwalking and sleep terrors before we learned to think of them as NREM disorders of arousal (Broughton, 1968)? How lo

11 Books to Help You "Adult": Today in Critical Linking
Critical Linking is sponsored by The Water Knife by Paolo Bacigalupi.
What is this "adulting" business anyway?
Fun, informative list from The Strand: 11 Books to Help You "Adult"
Earlier this week, CNET published the first installment of a new scifi novel, Crowd Control: Heaven Makes a Killing. What makes the work unique is that it was crowdsourced exclusively through CNET readers, and is, according to CNET, the world's first massively multiwriter online science fiction novel.
Interesting that only part of the creation process here that was done offline and without crowd input was editing stage.
Beginning July 1, HarperCollins will start a New Store Development program for U.S. independent booksellers who are opening new stores or expanding to additional locations.
This seems super smart to me. Perhaps the best hedge against Amazon is supporting those book outlets that do things that Amazon cannot do. At least not yet.
Earlier this week, one of the best websites for the science fiction and fantasy community announced that they were shutting down: SF Signal. Founded by John DeNardo and JP Frantz in 2003, the website has been updated daily ever since, posting thousands of reviews for books, comics and movies, while also providing an indispensable morning briefing post on articles, reviews and news from the fan community.
I've been following SF Signal for a long time. Sorry to see it go.

If i select "Yes" on the "UTF-8 Text Encoding", my feed appears, but with a lot of wrong characters. If I do choose "No", the feed doesn`t shows up, and instead I get an "a" letter.
My plugin is in the Version 0.9.1 , and WordPress on 3.9.
Any suggestion?
Thanks!Plugin Author Jason
This topic is very challenging to me because I do not speak any languages other than English, and so I've been trying to learn about how encoding works with different characters of different languages.
Would it be possible for you to provide more specific feedback? Maybe an example of the specific Twitter account? And with UTF-8 encoding on, examples of tweets with characters that do not display correctly?Plugin Author Jason
I was just playing with a couple of Portuguese Twitter accounts, and with UTF-8 encoding turned off, everything is working. So, it would be nice to find out specifically what characters cause this break to happen.piermelatto
Hi Jason
The account i`m trying to replicate is http://www.twitter.com/allamkhodair.

All right, so I think I've got it figured out. Can you please try it out and let me know?
1) Update to Tweeple 0.9.2.
2) Go back to the feed and make sure UTF8 Encoding is turned ON.
3) Clear your Feed's cache under Manage Feeds (although re-saving the options for your feed would have done this automatically)piermelatto

Guys! So I heard I was moving to Arizona at the worst possible time because it regularly gets above 100 degrees and even up to 120 degrees for most of the summer! While I am melting in the heat, it hasn't stopped me from firing up the grill and enjoying one of my favorite parts of summer. I have been grilling everything from kabobs to steak to burgers and now sweet potatoes! These Grilled Sweet Potato Fries are definitely staying in my grilling rotation! My biggest grilling tip is to always clean your grill! Nothing ruins a dish more than remnants of last weeks dish! So turn your grill as high as it will go, close the lid and wait. Then use a grill brush to clean off all the charred bits! Easy as that.
I am obsessed with dips. From salsa to guacamole to hummus, I am obsessed with all types of dips. This Southwest Roasted Red Pepper Dip combines my favorite Mezzetta Roasted Red Peppers with tahini paste, fresh cilantro, lemon juice and a dash of chipotle chili powder for spice! This zesty Southwest Roasted Red Pepper Dip perfectly pairs with the Grilled Sweet Potato Fries for an awesome side at any backyard BBQ! Mezzetta Roasted Red Peppers one of my favorite ways to add a huge pack of flavor to lots of dishes.
