Apparently there is a problem with sciam RSS feed. Haven't seen it in months.

Likewise. Was going to create a thread, but see one is already made.

Don't see "Warning: file_get_contents(http://rss.sciam.com/sciam/physics)" on other forum front pages, though - only physicsforums.com

Edit: seems to be fixed now.
