-stcurve- gives you the hazard curve at specified values of your
explanatory variables (and if you haven't explicitly specified
those values than they are set at the mean), while -predict-
will give you the hazards at the actually observed values of the
explanatory variables. For plotting the output from -stcurve- is
probably better.
