The World Health Organisation failure at Chernobyl

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8qqhm_ZrfhE

This is taken from a documentary made by Swiss TV a few years ago
They filmed in the area around Chernobyl and showed the children damaged
from birth and later. The food is all contaminated and some of the children
are actually radioactive as the radioactive nuclides lodge inside them

Dr Zupka of the UN office for humanitarian affairs says 9 million people
were affected by the disaster and continue to be affected and for
generations to come.

The IAEA controls the WHO on anything to do with health effects and
radioactivity due to a legal agreement signed in the 1950's

Important Comments Filed

Wilner & Associates has filed comments to the proposed opt-out decision in California recommending an analog meter as a permanent alternative for PG&E's customers opposed to a SmartMeter. Wilner also urges the Commission not to allow PG&E to charge customers that have a medical condition for the opt-out option. So far, the Commission contends that the analog meters are obsolete, and inconsistent with the State's energy objectives.

Smart meters fuel blowout cost fears

The Australian
MORE than $1 billion has been wiped from the net benefit forecast for the nation's first mandated electricity smart-meter rollout. A consumer revolt is also threatening to fuel cost blowouts as tens of thousands of Victorians reject the electricity meters. An independent report into the smart-meter system has exposed the Baillieu government to even more problems, with the system set to blow out in cost to $2.3bn - up from $800 million.

Copper theft from cell tower

Metal thieves are at it again this time stripping the wires from a cell phone tower in Hope. John Daly reports.

Is this Robin Hood BC style? Stealing from the rich, trying to save the poor people being exposed to harmful radiation?

As Doctors Use More Devices, Potential for Distraction Grows

Doctors and nurses can be focused on the screen and not the patient, even during moments of critical care, a problem perhaps best described as "distracted doctoring."

55 percent of technicians who monitor bypass machines acknowledged to researchers that they had talked on cellphones during heart surgery. Half said they had texted while in surgery.

Cell phone health effects in children

Remember this summer's study about cell phone health effects in children? The study's conclusion , distributed through press releases, was not based on the study's case controlled data. In reality, the study showed that children who regularly use a cell phone have an increased risk of brain tumors.

This article's author, Mona Nilsson, uncovered that the brother of Anders Ahlbom, had been a lobbyist in Brussels for the telecommunications industry for many years. This revelation basically caused Anders Ahlborn to be removed from the WHO's International Agency for Research of Cancer.
