Sylvia Browne is a claimed psychic that makes money by targeting the emotions of those who have lost loved ones.*
Robert Lancaster as a hero of skepticism takes on psychics, such as Sylvia Browne, and debunking them. Mr. Lancaster recently had a stroke. While he is making his recover, he has lost his claim to his old domain name. (I have not listed the old domain name, as to not to provide traffic to the new owner.) Mr. Lancaster and his wife have worked to set up a new domain name. So now if you would liketo find out the truth about Sylvia Browne I encourage you to visit Stop Sylvia.
Skeptics load your weapons, as described at Skeptools, and get active!
* It took great restraint to be that civil.

Check out a great new audiobook called Brave Men Run by Matthew Wayne Selznick. You can catch the podcast at http://www.podiobooks.com/podiobooks/book.php?ID=40 or visit http://www.bravemenrun.com/ for information regarding the purchase of the ebook or paperback. I find myself replaying the latest podcast episode in anticipation of the next episode. Currently, I'm debating whether to purchase the ebook of Brave Men Run now and read it all, or to wait until I've heard the entire book in the author's own voice. Brave Men Run is a very well managed podcast & audiobook, at least as good as main stream distributors. The sound quality of Brave Men Run is better, to my ear, than most of the audiobooks that I have purchased. Keep up the excellent work! read more »
In 2002 an amazing, and amazingly short-lived, series came to Fox television. Fox beat up, chopped, and spit out this wonderful show. However, the cast, crew, and fans wouldn't let the show die. This poor unassuming serial is called Firefly. If Star Trek (the original series) was considered a "wagon train in space", this new launch of a sci-fi western by Joss Whedon truly captured and remade the theme. Typically the cancellation of a series such as this, with only eleven (of fourteen) episodes aired, would mean the end, but it quite simply isn't. In September of 2005, a movie named for the ship in Firefly was released. Serenity is available on Amazon in classic and now a collector's edition, each have excellent special features. read more »
