James Randi and Psychic Crime Solving

James Randi and Psychic Crime Solving A professed psychic who claims to be able to identify items used to commit crimes demonstrates this claim and fails. From episode 1 of 'James Randi - Psychic Investigator' (1991) Despite claims to the contrary, there are no known cases where information provided by a psychic has played a direct part in solving a crime (which is probably also why there are no official police psychics). Despite apparently good intentions, psychics can actually hinder or harm a criminal investigation, tying up valuable time and resources of police investigators,spent in pursuing useless leads. This can potentially put lives at risk. User: spam_vigilante Nov 24, 2009 8:46 PM

After the Revolution

After the Revolution Nearly 50 years after the revolution, is Cuba on the brink of another major change? Dreams of founding a Socialist utopia have all but vanished. Few expect Fidel Castro to return to government. Even his brother, Raul, accepts the economy needs to be reformed. But decades of crippling sanctions have not had the desired effect. Cuba famously has one of the best healthcare and education systems in the world. User: spam_vigilante Nov 23, 2009 3:43 PM

Symphony of Science : Our Place in the Cosmos

Symphony of Science : Our Place in the Cosmos The third video from the Symphony of Science, was crafted using samples from Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Richard Dawkins' Genius of Charles Darwin series, Dawkins' TED Talk, Stephen Hawking's Universe series, Michio Kaku's interview on Physics and aliens, plus added visuals from Baraka, Koyaanisqatsi, History Channel's Universe series, and IMAX Cosmic Voyage. The themes present in this song are intended to explore our understanding of our origins within the universe, and to challenge the commonplace notion that humans have a superior or privleged position, both on our home planet and in the universe itself.

Life Running Out of Control

Life Running Out of Control In the mid 1980s, scientists unlocked the genetic keys to manipulating our world. Suddenly everything seemed possible. There would be no more hunger or malnutrition; diseases would be vanquished and poverty wiped out. But twenty years on the situation looks very different. From the loss of biodiversity to health scares about GM food, the effects of genetic technology are prompting more and more debate. This documentary is an intelligent look at both sides of the issue. Across the world, multinationals like Monsanto are meeting with unexpected resistance to their genetically modified products. But are these concerns justified? Or are activists battling the forces of progress? Renowned filmmakers Bertram Verhaag and Gabriele Krober sets out on a global journey to explore the development of genetic technology. Spanning three continents and beautifully filmed, this high quality doc hears from the scientists, farmers and activists at the heart of the debate. User: spam_vigilante Nov 23, 2009 1:55 AM

Howard Stern Show Beats Kirk Cameron

Howard Stern Show Beats Kirk Cameron From Nov 11, 2009. NSFW: Language! Stern played a clip of former “Growing Pains” star, Kirk Cameron, whining about the fact that his kids can’t pray or get bibles in public schools and that they have to learn about evolution. Howard pointed out, if you want to expose your kids to your religious views in school, send them to a religious school – but kids should not have to have others’ religious beliefs pushed on them in public schools. As Howard noted, if kids are going to be taught any religious beliefs in school, they need to be taught all religious beliefs – including Satanism. User: spam_vigilante Nov 22, 2009 9:54 PM
