22 January 2014ELECTRICAL SENSITIVITIES and the ELECTRICAL ENVIRONMENT
Cyril W. Smith, Ph.D.
A shortened and edited version of notes written for and in cooperation with The Breakspear Hospital, Hemel Hempstead, HP2 4FD, U.K. The writer has been helping their electrically hypersensitive patients since 1982.
What are Electrical Sensitivities?
Many persons suffer from sensitivities to certain foods and environmental chemicals which cause them discomfort, or even in extreme cases prevent them from functioning in any effective manner. Even the most minute amounts of these substances may on occasions 'trigger' reactions which are specific to each individual. Warnings regarding nuts, peanuts or gluten are commonly found displayed on food products. When a sensitivity reaction occurs, some regulatory system within the body has ceased to function properly and gives alarm signals, calling for an unjustified panic reaction. Usually, it is the autonomic nervous system (ANS) which is the first to become compromised in this way. This system controls all the involuntary body functions. Thus, any part or function of the body might become affected by the same allergen acting in different people which is why such effects do not show up in medical statistics.

Israel Lawsuit: Cancer because of radiation from radar
A former officer (25 years old) in the aerial protection system of the military claims he has got cancer as a result of the radiation emitted from the aerial protection system of the arrow missiles battery, to which he was exposed for his 5 years of military service. Lately the officer filed a lawsuit to the Ministry of Defense, with lawyer Eli Saban, demanding to recognize him as military disabled because of his cancer. The officer, who did his main service in an arrow missiles battery in one of the bases in the center of the country, detailed in his lawsuit the conditions of his service: "the job in the battery included a lot of activity, both operation and guiding, the job included continued service in the battery on all its components: radar, control center....all my life's routine, including sleeping, was inside the battery. During all my service I was exposed to radar systems and to other systems that emit ionizing radiation".
The officer, it was said in the lawsuit, was recruited to the army in full health, and in the last year of his service he started feeling back pains, but he did not attribute importance to them and did not complain about them. Two years ago he was released from the army. When his back pain strengthened, he went to get checked and about half a year after he was released, he was diagnosed with Hodgkin's lymphoma, in advanced stage with metastases. "There is no history in my family of Hodgkin's disease" the officer wrote in the lawsuit. "I have no doubt, that the Hodgkin's was caused by the military service conditions and its special characteristic". The Ministry of Defense received the lawsuit and the officer received a temporary approval to receive medical treatment at the expense of the Ministryof Defense. If the Ministry of Defense will decide to reject the lawsuit, the officer will have to go to the court.
Lawyer Saban said yesterday: "the fighters' service conditions in the batteries of the aerial protection systems must be checked. I think that in this case, if there is doubt, it is right and appropriate to go towards the officer who did day and night for the security of the country, and to enable him help and rehabilitation."

Vacant units available soon ? Ideal for Brétillienne would find one, away from electromagnetic wave " isolated house ." The general advice of Ille -et-Vilaine and Cotes d'Armor were surveyed : the collective " Alerts Waves 22" and the collective " A land for EHS " (note , electro hypersensitive ) offered to Departments to the available real estate and vacant public housing .
" A race against the clock "
" It's a race against the clock , breath Christiane Le Dauphin . There are calls throughout France . We had to mourn a social life. I have children , I'm afraid for them. My call, it is an act of hope. It is also an SOS ... We need the authorities react . "
EHS , what is it? Be electro- hypersensitive (EHS) , what does that mean ? Recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) , the new condition is not treated in France . However , these symptoms can prevent patients live normal lives as soon as they are exposed to waves : dizziness , headache , irritability, impaired memory and concentration , burns, muscle aches, etc. . They would be in 2013 thousands forced to leave France in the areas covered by 2G , 3G or wifi. And as the " white areas " not exposed to electromagnetic waves reduce the EHS sink into poverty and isolation.

"The meters are orders of magnitude more expensive than the normal meters," she said.
"One of the problems is that the water you save will never pay off the extra cost of the meter in the life of the meter. Water is a very low-price commodity."

Namur 4G hell for "electrosensitive" persons
Electrosensitive, Elizabeth had to transform her house to live in it.
Electrosensitive, Elizabeth had to transform her house to live in it.
Eda - Florent Marot
NAMUR - After Poximus , it was the turn of Base to install its own 4G network in Namur. A boon for techies , a drama for electro .
Elizabeth Lambert is electrosensitive . Ailments , chronic fatigue, paralysis , headaches, mental confusion, pain in the limbs and so many other neurological and physical suffering are the daily lot of people electro . The électrosensiblité , what is it? This is a sensitivity that is called electrosmog or the electromagnetic pollution.
With the increasing pollution of the common electromagnetic environment, the situation became unbearable Elisabeth , both socially and everyday . " For personal reasons , I had to leave my house three years ago . I rented apartments where I never slept . In six months , I slept in my car. A car is a Faraday cage and thus protection against the waves . I realized that I was electro . " Elisabeth then slept in the living room of a friend, surrounded by aluminum plates which she struggles to detach today. " One night I woke up with the feeling that someone was hitting me on the head. It was unbearable . Seeking , it was noted that the DECT (fixed wireless phone ) is still connected. DECT is the worst of all . "
Returning to his old home in Malonne , Elisabeth turned his home into a fortress against the waves. "Above the bed , I installed a canopy fabric with copper and silver . Below , a cover connected to a grounded outlet. " Ionizer , mass stove , removing any harmful device biorupteurs , Elizabeth had to make significant changes to simply live in his house . But thanks to drastic measures , Elisabeth can boast of living in a pristine home in waves , now called the Sourcerie . "I have guest rooms for people like me who suffer from EHS . "
Base : "no health effects "
Although telephone companies are not the only potential officials électrosensibilté , they are the main subject . Listening to studies Base Company states that " based on current scientific knowledge, it is not possible to say that exposure to electromagnetic waves emitted by base stations and mobile have any negative effect on health. "
Moreover, Proximus says they were " the first in Belgium to provide information concerning exposure to radio waves emitted by mobile phones. " And that " Since 2009, most devices Proximus Collection are also equipped a headset. "
On the other hand , Benedict Louppe , consultant electromagnetic environment and building biology states that " Very practical studies have shown the difference in results in studies of the influence of the electromagnetic environment by source of funding . A powerful lobby protects telephone companies . "

Video of Smart Meter Hearing
This was a zoning board hearing in Worcester, MA. We have delayed the installation of the Wimax tower 8 times now. The utility bumbles for the first 30 minutes, then comments. We learned after the fact that the doors to City Hall were locked and people who tried to attend could not get in the door. We made an effort to coordinate the statements so that many points were introduced. Four city counselors spoke in support of the community. The National Grid pilot is an undisclosed WiMax pilot. Several residents will be speaking at the Worcester City Council meeting Tuesday night Jan 21, at 7:00 pm. All are welcomed.

Jeromy - safe technology advocate
I went home that evening and found that while we were on vacation our utility had installed a bank of wireless "smart" meters directly below our bedroom.
Could this really be the source of our unusual symptoms? The wireless "smart" meters were the only thing that had changed at our home of five years

How I Dealt With The Magnetic Fields In My Home
Hi Lloyd,
I'm writing to thank you for the work you've done. It's changed my life and my exposure to electronics. Most incredibly, thanks to the Trifield meter I purchased through your recommendation, I discovered I had an extremely strong magnetic field extending up from the floor throughout my dining area that exceeded the max reading on the meter.
Turns out the copper plumbing was bringing that up from the earth – right where we sat for extended periods of time! I bought some copper wire and brackets, attached that to the pipe near the earth and rerouted that along the earth and out of the house, attached to the ground. Now the pipe under the floor is reading 1 to 2 milligauss. So, you never know what you're going to find with a meter! Thank you so much, again
Best regards,
Luke Ragle
