Reported Biological Effects From Radiofrequency Non-Ionizing
Radiation
RF Health Concern Classifications
The effects resulting from RF exposure are usually described
in one of
three ways: [Thermal effects] [Athermal effects] [Non-thermal
effects]
The following studies indicate biological effects at exposure
levels far
below what would be explained by "thermal effects",
and well within the
range people are commonly exposed to every day. NOTE: Most
of these
below exposures levels lie FAR BELOW the current advisory
exposure
standards in the US, which are based on thermal effects only.

Note: For an effect to be considered truly "nonthermal",
that is, a
"microwave effect", they must be experimentally
distinguishable from
heating effects due to absorbed RF energy as measured with
SAR Testing.
One more strong point to validate that SAR testing is not
adequate for
judging a cell phone users safety. With SAR testing, Dummy
heads are
filled with solutions to simulate brain conductivity and probed
to
measure depth and intensity. Amazingly enough regulatory agencies
have
not deemed it necessary to measure exposure to eyes. As shown
in pop up
window, Eye's are unprotected by the skull and comprised of
cells that
are extremely sensitive to electromagnetic energy.

Gull
Rage - Birds Attack Britons (EMF?)
http://www.cnn.com/2003/WORLD/europe/05/30/offbeat.britain.seagulls.reut/index.html
Friday, May 30, 2003
"The seagulls are getting out of control. Something
has to be done," a
Brighton tour bus driver said.
BRIGHTON, England (Reuters)
Their airborne attacks sow panic among the public. And they
are always
one step ahead of their pursuers. A frightening new terrorist
threat?
No, just the plain old British seagull.
Long a beloved symbol of seaside fun, the birds are moving
beyond their
coastal heartland to urban centers where rooftops replace
cliffs for
nesting and it is easier to scavenge food from rubbish than
hunt
depleted fish stocks in the sea.
But their anti-social habits -- including early-morning cacophonies,
and
protective instincts which can make them deliberately defecate
on or
dive-bomb humans -- are fast making the seagulls a figure
of hate for many.
This has given birth to a new concept: gull rage.
"A seagull swooped on a friend of mine the other day
to grab a burger
out of his hand," said a tourist bus driver Peter Butler,
in the
southern coastal town of Brighton.
"So he caught the bird by the throat and gave it a right
fright. The
seagulls are getting out of control. Something has to be done."
Brighton illustrates the conundrum well. As one of Britain's
top beach
resorts, it relies on seagulls for its postcard image and
tourists
delight in feeding the birds from their hands.
But as a busy residential town, many inhabitants are sick
of the noise,
mess and occasional threat the gulls present as they move
away from the seafront.
"I know a lot of people call them rats with wings and
they can be very
intimidating, but they are part of our seaside heritage,"
said hotel
worker Peter Metcalfe.
"The real problem is humans who throw them food and
encourage the problem."
According to the country's leading seagull expert Peter Rock,
their
population is growing by a remarkable 13 percent annually,
meaning most
conurbations will before too long house a colony.
The Royal Society for the Protection of Birds (RSPB) estimates
around
200,000 pairs of the two main species -- the herring gull
and the
black-backed gull -- now live in Britain.
"The subject of seagull menace has always been dealt
with in a rather
light-hearted and flippant way in the past," Rock told
Reuters. "Now
some people are baying for blood."
Calls for mass gull culls are growing. That could be done
by shooting,
poisoning or egg-destroying. Birds of prey have also been
suggested as a solution.
"Some people tried flying Harris hawks in Bath,"
Steve Burt, pest
control supervisor for that English city, told National Geographic.
"The trouble was that they were lucky to get the birds
back alive once
the gulls had finished with them."
Proponents of radical solutions point to reports of recent
serious
incidents such as a Welshman suffering a heart attack after
being
swooped, a pet dog hacked to death, and a woman in England
sent to
hospital with beak wounds to the head.
They may also want to recommend a re-viewing of British director
Alfred
Hitchcock's 1963 thriller "The Birds" which portrays
seagulls
terrorising a town.
But, experts counter, culls both offend nature-lovers' sensibilities
and
are a fundamentally flawed method.
"If you remove a seagull from its niche, you just make
a hole which
another one will come along straightaway to fill up,"
Rock said.
More effective long-term methods would be to adjust living
habits to
pre-empt the seagulls by, for example, blocking roof crevices
and
ensuring waste food is not left out.
Studies into feeding habits are also needed to find out how
the chicks
get the high-energy, high-protein food -- equivalent to fish
-- in towns
to survive in such high numbers.
Another anti-seagull tactic which failed was towing rubbish-filled
boats
out to sea to lure them. And in the ever-more imaginative
drive to curb
the birds, a football club painted the roof of its stadium
red to
successfully deter them.
Weighed against such methods are the seagulls' remarkable
adaptability
and capacity for problem-solving.
"These birds are very intelligent, very quick to cotton
on to new opportunities,
" said RSPB spokesman Graham Madge. "We need long-term
solutions."
One municipal authority in southwestern England has set up
a special Web
site to educate the public about the problem, but is wary
about radical
solutions for safety reasons.
"If birds of prey are dive-bombing in the streets, they
could kill
themselves," said South Hams environmental health officer
Kate Eveleigh.
"And if people are climbing on to roofs for culls, there
are obvious
safety concerns there too."
Meanwhile, the menace of seagulls -- who generally weigh
about 1 kilogram
(2.2 pounds), have wingspans of some 4.5 feet (1.5 meters)
and can dive
bomb at 40 mph -- grows.
"There are various stages the seagull uses when it is
upset. If you don't
heed the first ones -- cries, low passes, defecating -- they
will come
in at highspeed and rake you with their feet on the back of
the head,"
said Rock, a veteran of such attacks during his research.
"It usually
draws blood."

This mentions Graham-Stetzer filters, eliminating exposure
to high
frequencies. An inexpensive and simple to use instrument called
a
Microsurge Meter is also described. It produces a digital
reading
related to how harmful the electrical pollution is to humans
in that
micro-environment.
In "Mitigation of Electrical Pollution in the Home,"
released on 19 April
2002, Professor Emeritus at University of California in Berkeley
Dr.
Martin Graham discusses how people can cheaply and easily
identify
whether they are exposed to electrical pollution, as well
as, a safe
easy way to mitigate the problem once it is identified. He
suggests
using an inexpensive portable hand held AM radio to detect
electrical
pollution (See "Mitigation of Electrical Pollution in
the Home," for
details). In the paper, he also discusses the use of filters
to
reduce/eliminate exposure to electrical pollution. Each filter
is made
from a 20µf motor run AC dry film capacitor with a bleeder
resistor
(for safety) and a properly attached cord. Approximately 20
such
filters are needed to reduce exposure to electrical pollution
in the
average home. These filters have advantages over previous
filters in
that they are small, portable (they plug into any outlet.),
have a
higher frequency range, and any person who knows how to plug
in an
electrical cord can install them.
Assembled units are available from Stetzer Electric,Inc.
They can be
reached by phone at (608) 989-2571 or by email at

Dr. Graham provided pictures of spectra of electrical pollution

Re:
Help and advice sought
Hello, Radi,
In my opinion you shouldn't play their game. You say that
they won't
tell you who this 3 rd party is. It really doesn't matter
when you say
that Sprint will pay for it. What do you need more?
This whole "Technical questions" is just a game,
you don't have in my
opinion sit and think hard about any question - you should
just clarify
that you don't agree. The cannot impose on you a fact just
like that and
you have a legal right to resist because this is not a nuetral
3rd
person. If they choose him and you agree to that - you lose.
100%.
You should demand to bring YOUR independant expert that YOU
choose, and
not agree to this game, clarify that you know you are cheated,
clarify
that this is not nuetral. Don't play their game.
We have a legal case where an "expert" was working
for public health and
at the same time worked for 3 cellular companies, electricity
company
and wired phone company. He is sued in the court now because
of this. So
if it's dirty, it can continue in the court room.
Iris Atzmon
and
Questions can give the engineer a bigger paycheck, and might
stop for a
moment him in his tracks (though he need only go to other
pseudoexperts
around the US to provide stunningly deceptive answers). Problem
is, this
gives him the floor.
You need the floor. And you need the floor with expertise
that can
slam-dunk spontaneously crunch anything and everything the
engineer and
his pseudoexpert cronies will come up with.
Every trick, of course, is an opportunity. If they get to
bring a
3rd-party expert, you get to bring a 3rd-party expert.
You will need to show the engineer's background and influences.
Get him
to sign a disclosure statement, for example. Will he be found
to be
independent? No way! But you can then offer 3rd-party, independent
expertise. They'll have trouble refusing you, since refusal
would
reveal, especially after the engineer's back-pocket contracts
come out,
that this move were intended by the Planning Board PRECISELY
to weight
the decision for Industry and against Residents.
Remember, the "engineer" has no authority to "approve"
a project; only
public officials do.
Sounds like you could be in a good position, if you play your
cards
well.
Here's also your opportunity to continue the hearing to September,
or
when ever you choose - preferably when the local student body
& faculty
are around for support.
Submit a letter asking your officials by what date the engineering
(or
whatever) report will be completed and on the record for you
to read.
Also make a FOIA request for the City's contract with the
engineer,
including his name. If it's not a City contract, well then,
who's the
Contractor???
If they give you a date, say it's too close to the hearing
date of June
17, since you will need to get an expert and prepare rebuttal.
If they refuse to give you a date, say that's ridiculous,
how under such
circumstances can we prepare a rebuttal prior to the June
17 hearing?!
Their experts have had - how many months??? - to hire out
and prepare
such a report?
You deserve the same amount of time for your rebuttal.
DO THIS IN WRITING, ON THE RECORD, AND AS POSSIBLE, IN THE
MEDIA!
