Join us for our October Skeptics in the Pub. This month we'll have an informal social night, to give us a chance to talk, get to know one another and share ideas. While we won't have a presentation this month, we will have Skeptical Trivia, and PRIZES!! Special, skeptical-themed prizes. Really cool prizes.
Skeptics in the Pub is designed to promote fellowship and social networking among skeptics, critical-thinkers, and individuals interested in science. If you haven't made it to one of our meetups yet, this would be a great one to start with. Did I mention there will be prizes?
Once again we'll meet at our favorite, local public house, New Albanian Brewing Company, just over the river in Southern Indiana. Come for the craft beer and breadsticks, stay for the skepticism. (And prizes.)

Please join us for our second Skeptics in the Pub! We have another fascinating presentation scheduled. This month, sports conditioning coach Jamie Hale will cut through the media hype to give us the scientific facts behind nutrition. Once again we'll meet at the fabulous New Albanian Brewing Company.
About September's Presentation:
With so much conflicting nutrition information and advice, how do we know what's right and what's wrong? Jamie Hale's "Nutrition: Fact or Fiction" lecture has the answers. Jamie Hale is a sports conditioning coach, author, lecturer, outdoor enthusiast, and fitness and nutrition consultant. He is the owner of MaxCondition Training and MaxCondition Nutrition. He has contributed to numerous exercise and sports publications (nationally and internationally) and has authored six books. Jamie is a member of the World Marital Arts Hall of Fame in recognition of his conditioning work with martial artists. He is the founder of HNE Research Group and a member of KASES. Jamie is currently working on a new book How We Know: A Guide To Reason with Brian Jones (Author, University of Louisville Professor). Check out Jamie's websites: Maxcondition and Knowledge Summit.
