ARIZONA, UNITED STATES. The latest research project being conducted at an American university involves researchers talking to bereaved people, then sending questions by e-mail to mediums at remote locations.

UNITED STATES. It’s an open secret that police forces around the world make use of psychics, but officially they deny it. However, the makers of the “Psychic Witness” documentary series – shown on cable and satellite TV – have persuaded previously sceptical police officers to testify to the accuracy of psychics used in a number of cases.

BRAZIL. How did the Americans find Iraqi dictator Saddam Hussein, hiding in a dug-out on a farm near Tikrit? The obvious answer is that someone close to him tipped off the Coalition forces. Not so, says a Brazilian psychic. He claims to have pinpointed the exact spot where Hussein was captured, and now he’s claiming the $25 million reward offered by the US Government. Read More

Alternative medicine ‘unproven and disproved’ Monday, September 04, 2006
GENEVA and LONDON. A group of UK doctors and surgeons have joined forces to produce a letter, which has been sent to every National Health Service (NHS) trust in the country urging them to reject funding for alternative medicine, which they describe as “unproven and disproved”. It is probably no coincidence that the letter – said to have been organised by Michael Baum, emeritus professor of surgery at University College, London – made headlines just as Prince Charles addressed the World Health Organisation’s decision-making Assembly in Geneva, defending the use of alternative or holistic therapies.

… and prayer ‘does not heal’ Monday, September 04, 2006
UNITED STATES. A decade-long study into the effect of prayer on patients who have undergone heart surgery has found no evidence that they benefit from the experience. In fact, one surprising conclusion was that the 1,800 patients suffered a noticeably higher rate of complications.

Doubts about near-death study Monday, September 04, 2006
UNITED STATES. Journalists love to pour scorn on long held beliefs – even if it means conveniently ignoring accumulated evidence from other sources. So when a team of US medics studied 55 people who had reported near-death experiences and compared them with 55 people who had not – discovering in the process that the former were more likely to have less clearly defined boundaries between sleeping and waking – the news media had a field day. And, as often happens, they got it wrong.... Read More

‘Bridey Murphy’ witness remembers Monday, September 04, 2006
UNITED STATES. It is half a century since the classic “Bridey Murphy” story of reincarnation, obtained under hypnosis, was first published. It caused a sensation.

Dream of murder proved right? Monday, September 04, 2006
UNITED STATES. When a man running for office on a local council in Alabama, US, accused a rival of wife murder, it seemed like a case of political jealousy.
