Re: WiFi BBC Panorama 21.5.07

Interesting! It should be noted that on Montel the other day, they reported some cities already having "Clusters" of illness, and it just so happens these cities are WiFi enabled.

Seattle for instance, has an entire blanket cluster of Fibromyalgia. If I am not mistaken, many people have already linked this disease to EMF/EMR and is a environmental issue. Seattle was one of the first cities in the USA to go WiFi, and if this doesn't send up a big warning signal, I don't know what will!

Looks like this might have some pretty big health ramifications... Spread this around, I cannot imagine having more ridiculous frequencies through my power outlets.

One of the points I make in my lectures has to do with the naming of things by what they are or what they are not, 'False-negative names".

NOTE: Always pay close attention when something is named by what it is NOT! This occurs when the namer has something to hide and is engaged in sleight-of-mind, a mental trick, against the public.

Why would a corporation call energy it promotes "nonionizing radiation" when it could call it more accurately "radiofrequency radiation"? Why would a group describe RF absorption levels "nonthermal" when there IS heat deposition, and they could call the levels more correctly "microthermal"? Why would one call weapons "nonlethal" when they were more properly called "direct-energy" or "electromagnetic" weapons?

Here's why: because public relations firms advised the corporations promoting these technologies to do so, in order to convey SAFETY to the public mind, SAFETY that is actually HARM.

When engineers and others read "nonionizing" and other false-negative names, they don't even QUESTION whether the technologies might be harmful! When the suggested mechanism of harm is denied even in the name of a thing, engineers can't even think that there might exist another mechanism of harm.

When you see these false-negative names, always turn it around and call the harmful technologies by their true names!

Can you please broadcast these messages of HOPE? We must always have faith and hold on to hope. If Dr Grahame Blackwell says so then there must be just cause.

He has worked tirelessly in the past – and maybe now? – to help people with these newer technologies and the harm they can cause, so he is one who would know, especially with his qualified technical background.

His new books are very interesting, too. http://www.transfinitemind.com/

The Tide Has Turned. Believe It!!

Just when the Roman Empire appeared to be at its peak, it was already in decline and its days were numbered. In exactly the same way, the mobile phone industry seems to be in total control - but it’s not. Public Opinion is alerted, Public Opinion is on the move - and Public Opinion is a force to be reckoned with. Operators and politicians would do well to remember the moving hand that wrote on the wall at King Belshazzar’s great feast:

“You have been weighed in the balance and found wanting. Your kingdom will be divided.”

The writing is on the wall for the phone (& TETRA) operators. Will they have the wisdom and the courage to co-operate with the public to find a better way - a way that benefits everybody - before it’s too late for them?

Don’t be fooled by appearances!

The days of hazardous microwave communications are limited. This risky technology is not sustainable.

It’s just a matter of time now before official policy follows commonsense.

Just hang on in there!

The non-ionizing law in Israel entered into effect in January 2007. Or so it was supposed to be, but it isn't.

The law is in fact not yet in operation because of the section of removing antennas from sensitive places. This removal of antennas and keeping them further away, will cost about 900 million shekels. The controversy between the ministries of communication and environment is about who will fund removal / moving the antennas. The chairman of the parliament committee of environment, Ofir Pines, considers to apply to the high court and to the state comptroller. Pines and the committee were supposed to approve clauses of the law (like distances and all the small details which are the most important) but the clauses were not sent to the committee although Pines asked them for more than half a year from the ministries of communication and environment. The committee was supposed to approve the clauses before January and since it didn't, the law has not entered into effect by the government. A representative of the communication ministry said that the law will have an effect also on the prices of electricity. Pines will try another thing- to file the clauses to the parliament for approval as a bill, hoping that this step will accelerate the displacement of the antennas. ( http://www.ynet.co.il economy ).

This law forces every new installation that emits non-ionizing radiation, to receive a permission first from the ministry of environment. The permission is supposed to be based on the level of radiation that is emitted and if the installation does not stand in the radiation levels, then it is a criminal responsibility and no one wants to take this responsibility, especially because one thing was "forgotten" in this law: the level of radiation is not stated in the law. The power company does not want to expose its workers to criminal lawsuits and the private sector claims that the ministry of environment has prepared a non practical law because no one knows the levels of radiation that enable obeying to the law. The result is that many projects are now posponed and this trend will continue and the cost will be billions of shekels, the projects are posponed because people don't want to take the chance about the radiation levels. This law was rolling for about 8 years and the power company succeeded in delaying it, but now the law is not clear and Dr. Stilian Galberg from the ministry of environment said that he gave up to the power company and instead of asking them to stand in radiation level he only asks to sign that they will do the maximum they can to reduce the radiation level. "Instead of setting low radiation levels like in Europe, for example, we were more flexible" he said. (The marker 6.5.07)


Re: A strange kind of law - the non ionizing law in Israel

In the state of Massachusetts in the late 1990s, the mobile phone companies were required by law not only to provide for any proposed antenna an application to the local town or city, but also to the state Department of Health, Radiation Control Division.

Among other requirements, the State application included esimated power density levels to be produced from the proposed antenna, particularly those in the surrounding, occupied structures.

These applications gave us a great deal of information, with which we were able to resist the installation of many antennas and towers. Where we had power density levels, we were able to compare them with levels at which harm had been demonstrated in toxicologic and epidemiologic studies.

Although the industry persisted in lying to officials, lawyers and local communities, stating that no one (official or nonofficial) could legally refuse antennas based on a "health" argument, we in fact were able to do so frequently, first by pointing out that the federal Telecommunications Act of 1996 did not use the word "health", and perhaps more importantly, that we were submitting peer-reviewed, scientific evidence perfectly acceptable under the Supreme Court's Daubert Rule for admissibility.

As a result, there was arguably a stronger and more successful resistance movement in Massachusetts than in any other US state.

Hope this may help. There exists no credibility in antenna laws or regulations without reference to the radiation levels the antennas emit.

Email from Sarah Dacre ( Sarahdacre ) to Joanne Mueller ( jcmpelican@aol.com) dated 5-09-07:

One of the worst symptoms when I suddenly became incapacitated in May 2005 was an inability to remember anything whatsoever.

I had been growing increasingly addicted to my cell phone and had begun to sleep with it on a table next to my head, using the alarm clock function and charging it all night with the charger pack fixed into the wall 18 inches behind my bedhead and the cell phone 18 inches to the side of my head. The only other item on the bedside table was a simple lamp.

That level of exposure was almost irrevocably ruinous to my health. You should also know that I also had two DECT phone cordless systems in my home, located in other rooms in the house and a microwave emitting burglar alarm where one of the room sensors was located at ceiling height opposite my bed covering the entire room with its beam, 24/7.

This radiation cocktail was completed with infrequent microwave cooking.

In addition to dizziness, right eye deterioration, palpitations, night terrors, erratic and extremely high sudden onset high blood pressure, bladder and digestive disturbances and prolonged deterioration in my immunity, one of the worst symptoms was a complete loss of memory; I would forget the beginning of a sentence, either written or spoken, I would forget what I had jotted as a reminder; I forgot basic family details, birthdays and common recipes and easy domestic arrangements. I had always had photographic recall and I ran a work log book for legal and commercial reasons rather than to support a bad memory.

My illhealth was progressive, myalgic encephalomyelitis (ME/CFS), which meant a prolonged 18 months working on rediscovery of my regular sunny approach to life, right eye sight, heart palpitations, and return to some semblance of health and strengthened immunity.

I now have 95% of my perfect memory back. How did I achieve this? By shielding my life from EMR: moving my bed; switching off all EMF emitting devices; alternative supplements and detox; wearing the 99% EMR proof headnet for motorway driving and a shawl in highly emitting environments such as offices and airports, train stations, shopping centres. I also set out to retrain my short term memory with exercises, lists and soduko. My diet is full of healthy foods and pure supplements and minerals. I have regular Chinese acupuncture where the remedial focus is on memory and a healthy brain and central nervous system.

I know that my previous heavy use of my cell phone for say 4-5 hours each day and the night time phone charging ritual were the principal underlying cause of my memory problems.

We will certainly see an epidemic of similar levels of memory collapse in young people addicted to their cell phones.

We all have an obligation to raise awareness of this invisible peril to all of our young people.

CELL PHONES CLOSE TO HEADS AT NIGHT -

The issue of persons of all ages charging cell phones on nightstands and/or placing cell phones under pillows, requires urgent attention.

"Distance is your friend" regarding electric and telephone equipment in bedrooms. Sarah Dacre from the United Kingdom, explains briefly (above) how drastically her memory and "entire life" was changed -- decline and improvement ........

Some children and teens keep cell phones under pillows, often in "vibrate mode," to allow them to interact with friends via text messaging. Parents are typically not aware of this extremely serious problem. Some parents, however, are doing the same thing. What about the infants and children who seek comfort in their parents' beds........ Could their infants/children be amongst the increasing numbers of children diagnosed with autism-spectrum disorders?

AN error could spell at least temporary defeat for a phone mast plan that has frightened Great Sankey residents.

T-Mobile wrote to the wrong councillors in its consultation over the pole planned for near Sycamore Lane Primary School.

The error was spotted by parish and borough councillor Keith Gleave at last Wednesday's parish council meeting.

Mobile masts are difficult to defeat because the Government has said health concerns are not a valid objection - so the technical error could be a way of objecting.

A decision on the mast is due on June 12 and the consultation period has finished, though this could be extended due to the errors.

Clare Earps, chairman of the school governors, asked the parish council's backing in the fight against the mast planned for near the walkway over Sankey Way, by the school.

She said 110 parents had objected already.

And resident William Roslee told the meeting: "I'm going to be long out the window at this 24/7."

His neighbour, Eric Blakely, said: "Who wants to buy a house with radiation pole stuck in the garden?"

The council warned objections should be made on the grounds of impact on residents' life, the visual impact, and the general strength of residents' feelings - not health or house price concerns.

A spokesman for T-Mobile said: "Unfortunately there was an error with the postcode allocated to our site which meant that the consultation plan was incomplete.

"As soon as Warrington Borough Council pointed out the postcode error we immediately changed our plans, wrote to the school and the appropriate local councillors."
