Important Scientific Study by Eskander et al.

http://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0009912011027330

It shows that long term exposure (six years) to both cellphones and their base stations can alter human hormone profiles.

The most significant (which the authors describe as highly significant in the text) are their effects on the thyroid hormones, which show a marked reduction over this period. Although the authors do not say it (I suspect that they dare not if they want to get their work published) this would result in hypothyroidism, the most important symptoms of which are fatigue and obesity.

Could this be why so many people are now being diagnosed as having chronic fatigue syndrome (aka ME) and why there is a massive outbreak of obesity in the population, with all that goes with it, which includes diabetes, cardiac problems, kidney failure and cancer?

If this turns out to be true, the cellphone industry is going to have a lot to answer for.

Is Your House Killing You?

Are you worried that something in your house is making you sick? Have you lost a loved one and suspect it was caused by mold in your home? Do you fear that there is lead in your paint or pipes? Do you think that your home is infested with toxins?

Do your children suffer from asthma and you worry that it's because of dust in your home? Does your home have musty odors and you are just not sure where they're coming from? Do you notice that you feel better when you are not at home? Or maybe you are not sleeping well or feel lethargic for extended periods of time?

If you are worried that something in your home is making you sick, we want to hear from you. Please tell us about yourself, your home and what you suspect is making you ill. We look forward to hearing from you.

Iceland Fish Farm – Gill Disease and EMFs

Date of account: 29. July 1996.

Silfurlax hf was working in the field of raising juvenile Atlantic salmon from 1985 until 1995. In 1986 the company started to farm salmon (from eggs up to juvenile size) in the fish farm at Núpar III in Ölfushreppur, Árnessýslu in Iceland. More than 1.5 million eggs were hatched each year in the farm. The farm is very modern (high-tech) and heavily equipped with electrical appliances. We had an outbreak of gill disease in each year-class of juvenile salmon right from the beginning. The mortality caused by the disease was very high i.e. we lost between 30 and 87% of our juvenile salmon (see the histograph).

The clinical picture of the gill disease involves enlarged cells and increased number of cells (hypertrophy and hyperplacia) in the gills. The surface of healthy gills is both large and very thin to allow both oxygen and ion transport. As the disease develops this large, thin surface decreases and becomes thicker and in the end it reaches a stage when the secondary lamellae fuse and hence the surface for oxygen and ion transport has decreased dramatically. This causes high mortality. The gills of the surviving juvenile salmon does recover and in most cases they do not suffer from gill disease again. Many different agents can cause a gill disease, i.e. parasites and bacteria. Treatment against those pathogens is available.

However the causative agent of the gill disease at Núpar III was unknown. Experts in fish diseases, both in Iceland as well as from abroad, had tried to solve the problem without success. By standardising the use of formaldehyde the mortality were lowered to about 30 %, probably mainly due to the effect which the chemical has on the single cell parasite Costa which often came as a secondary infection. Although being an improvement, he formaldehyde treatment was insufficient as a solution to the problem.

In autumn 1994 we asked Brynjólfur Snorrason at Höndin if he could assist us to solve the problem. After he had measured the electric fields, electromagnetic fields and the earth energy fields in the farm he recommended certain changes in the electrical system and that the earth connection of the farm should be increased. Those changes were made in steps during the time period from autumn 1994 until January 1995. They did also install in the farm an equipment specially designed to neutralise electromagnetic fields. As soon as the first changes had been done the number of outbreaks of gill disease decreased dramatically. When all the changes (which had been recommended) had been done the gill disease did only occur as an exception in some tanks concurrently to measurable electromagnetic fields that were accidentally reoccurring in the farm due to some changes in the electrical system.

People of Höndin with collaborating scientists started an experiment in the farm in mars 1996. Electromagnetic fields were made by installing some electrical equipment just above some of the tanks. A gill disease outbreak was documented in all those tanks and also in all the fish tanks that were close by. The disease did not occur in other tanks in the same building but those juvenile salmon were slightly older. Further research is contemplated.

From our experience we see electric fields, electromagnetic fields, and earth energy fields as the primary reason for the gill disease.

Proximity Sensory in the iPad 3G

Since distance affects how much radiation is absorbed by a person's body, the iPad 3G's proximity sensor is there to dial down the power of the 3G radio by as much as 75% when it detects that a user is close to the sensor.

Scientists endorse driver cellphone proposal

Medical scientists strongly endorsed the National Transportation Safety Board's recommendation Tuesday to ban nearly all use of cellphones and other portable electronics by drivers, saying the gizmos are just too distracting for the limited multitasking power of the human brain.

Wired and Tired: Electronics and Sleep Disturbance in Children

In my practice, parents frequently report their child does not fall asleep easily, is restless at night, or is extremely irritable and disorganized in the morning. Adolescents frequently complain that they can't sleep, and then feel exhausted the next day--only to have the pattern repeat the following night. As one teen aptly put it, she felt "wired and tired."

Degredation of Human Biology

The following is a discussion on Nutrimedical Report with Dr. Bill Deagle talking to Will Thomas regarding Smart Meters:

http://podcast.gcnlive.com/podcast/nutri_med/1219113.mp3

It mentions for the first time (live or in print) to my knowledge of the damage done to soldiers as a result of exposure to scalar weaponry in the Middle East.

WiMAX, developed half a mile or so from me in Ireland, is specifically mentioned as "wi-fi on steroids" - an unfortunate but common description.

For more information visit Mr. Thomas' web site at:

Smart Meters have already been installed at industrial estates / business parks throughout Ireland.

Today's Journal News Transmitter Editorial

Governments have warned citizens not to abandon their landlines, to hold cell phones away from heads and bodies when not in use, to restrict children's use of cellular phones and not to install Wi-Fi. Independent scientists assert that cellular phones are linked to brain tumors, brain damage, sperm count drops and cognitive dysfunction
