Mobilising
the global EHS troops in solidarity with upcoming fast
protest in Pasadena
Hi Klaus:
I would like feedback through your superb online EHS facilitatorship
--C.I.O.-- from other EHS supporters internationally on their
views
regards linking up with the planned Pasadena (and global,
the organisers
hope) protest for "Freedom in Mental Health" starting
on August 16th,
which you have posted on C.I.O. 31/7/03.
I have already expressed my belief that this is an unique
opportunity to
globally highlight our EHS plight. And it is especially apt
for placing
on everyone's radar the vast numbers of us who are pronounced
to be
delusionsal/psychotic about our professed EMR triggered bioeffects.
Exposures of abuses in psychiatry is BIG this year. Amnesty
International's major campaign throughout this year highlights
violations to the Human Rights of those who are mentally ill.
Best, Imelda, Cork, Ireland.

COST
281 and illnesses since the 1960s
Dear Klaus
Do you think that COST 281 (Base Station and...) is an investigation
group?
It seems more a planned false investigation and permanent
good trip
(London, Viena...) to go on topics or "Tropics"....
to increase the
centre of health delay tactic.
To study the "extrem difficulties in calculating and
measuring (with its
high variations in the field measurement) of the exposure
situation"
.... for density of power thousands times higher than the
biological
health alteration.
Dr. Mae-Wan Ho exposes the bad science at the centre of the
controversy.

New

Effects
of high-frequency elektromagnetic fields on human EEG: a brain
mapping study.
Kramarenko AV, Tan U.
Central Clinic Hospital N5, Kharkov, Ukraine.
Cell phones emitting pulsed high-frequency electromagnetic
fields (EMF)
may affect the human brain, but there are inconsistent results
concerning their effects on electroencephalogram (EEG).
We used a 16-channel telemetric electroencephalograph (ExpertTM),
to
record EEG changes during exposure of human skull to EMF emitted
by a
mobile phone. Spatial distribution of EMF was especially concentrated
around the ipsilateral eye adjacent to the basal surface of
the brain.
Traditional EEG was full of noises during operation of a
cellular phone.
Using a telemetric electroencephalograph (ExpertTM) in awake
subjects,
all the noise was eliminated, and EEG showed interesting changes:
after
a period of 10-15 s there was no visible change, the spectrum
median
frequency increased in areas close to antenna; after 20-40
s, a
slow-wave activity (2.5-6.0 Hz) appeared in the contralateral
frontal
and temporal areas. These slow waves lasting for about one
second
repeated every 15-20 s at the same recording electrodes.
After turning off the mobile phone, slow-wave activity progressively
disappeared; local changes such as increased median frequency
decreased
and disappeared after 15-20 min. We observed similar changes
in
children, but the slow-waves with higher amplitude appeared
earlier in
children (10-20 s) than adults, and their frequency was lower
(1.0-2.5
Hz) with longer duration and shorter intervals.
The results suggested that cellular phones may reversibly
influence the
human brain, inducing abnormal slow waves in EEG of awake
persons.

Previous findings suggested the facilitating effect of the
electromagnetic field emitted by mobile phones on human attention.
This
study aimed to examine the relationship between the facilitating
effect
and the duration of exposure to the electromagnetic field
emitted by
mobile phones on human attention.
Seventy-eight university students were randomly assigned
to either an
experimental or a control group. Their performance in the
administered
attention tasks was compared. Participants in the experimental
group
performed better on one of the two measures of attention only
after they
had been exposed to the electromagnetic field emitted by the
mobile
phone for some time.
The results seem to suggest that attention functions may
be
differentially enhanced after exposing to the electromagnetic
field
emitted by mobile phones. Furthermore, this transient facilitation
effect might be dose dependent.

In
response to Jackie Wahlig's question as to how much Melatonin
to take
Dear Klaus: In response to Jackie Wahlig's question as to
how much
Melatonin to take in order to have a good night's sleep, I
have been
taking 3 mgs of Melatonin each night right before I want to
fall asleep
and very seldom have any problem sleeping and/or going back
to sleep
immediately if I wake up for one reason or another. With the
exception
of possibly the first night I took Melatonin, I did not feel
tired the
next day from having taken the Melatonin.
I offer this information as a "victim" rather than
as an "expert" so
Jackie might want to check at her library for a book on Melatonin
for
additional information.
As many who exchange information re EMR already know, I live
only 50 ft.
from two high voltage powerlines. I suffer from countless
health
problems but attribute my high energy level primarily to Melatonin
but I
also take many other supplements.
I have read three books on the subject of Melatonin. One
of the books
even described a study on dogs and EMR exposure. The dogs
developed
asthma. This was attributed to lower levels of Melatonin caused
by
chronic EMR exposure.

Mystery
illness hits US troops in Iraq
It was just mentioned on this morning's news that a mystery
illness has
struck over 100 US servicemen stationed in Iraq. Symptoms
are similar to
pneumonia, which can be caused by viruses, bacteria, and physical
and
chemical agents. The military has apparently ruled out a virus
or
chemical agents.
Previous messages to this list has detailed the health problems
associated with the use of depleted uranium. With the large
amount of DU
shells used in Iraq, including urban areas is it any wonder
that
respiratory illness may be a result. If the military tests
the sick
soldiers for DU contamination you will never hear about it.

New
Environmental code becomes law in San Francisco
Don,
San Francisco passed an ordinance on the precautionary principle
which is effective today.
It remains to be seen whether and how this ordinance will
be applied to
antenna siting decisions and the existing electropollution
from over
2400 cellular antenna installations, the 30-40 megawatt Sutro
tower
complex and Wireless Local Area Network "hot spots".
It is up to the
people to raise their environmental health concerns about
these low
intensity radiation expsoures now ubiquitiously permeating
the air in
San Francisco and other major cities of the world.

New
Approaches to Safeguarding the earth/An environmental version
of the
Hippocratic oath
Jared Blumenfeld
A bold environmental code becomes law in San Francisco today,
one whose
overarching framework is called the Precautionary Principle.
Through it,
San Francisco is taking a significant step away from the Bush
administration's anti-environmental policies.
The Precautionary Principle sets out to improve the way we
make
environmental decisions. While the Bush team asks, "How
much
environmental harm will be allowed?," in San Francisco,
decision-makers
will ask a very different question: "How little harm
is possible?"
San Francisco is a leader in making choices based on the
least
environmentally harmful alternatives, thereby challenging
traditional
assumptions about risk management. The 11 existing laws consolidated
in
the Environment Code have introduced more than 700 zero- or
low-emission
vehicles to the city's fleet, conserved 6,800 trees and more
than
half-a-million gallons of water each year by purchasing recycled
content
paper, cut toxic- pesticide use in half and protected worker
health by
designing buildings that use less energy and other precious
natural
resources.
We acknowledge that our world will never be free from risk.
However, a
risk that is unnecessary, and not freely chosen, is never
acceptable.
San Francisco's Precautionary Principle, enacted as part of
the Environment
Code, insists that environmental decision-making be based
on rigorous
science -- science that is explicit about what is known, what
is not
known and what may never be known about potential hazards.
Unfortunately, in today's regulatory system lack of proof
of harm is
usually misinterpreted as proof of safety. In San Francisco,
we want to
create a means to take action despite scientific uncertainty
about the
degree of a given risk. Too often, regulatory agencies get
stuck in
"paralysis by analysis"; the new framework removes
excuses for inaction
on the grounds of scientific uncertainty.
The costs of not taking precautionary action are often very
high, as
we've seen in the case of tobacco, lead and asbestos. Early
scientific
warnings about risks to health went unheeded by government
agencies. As
a result, billions of dollars have been spent to deal with
the
consequences of these problems. Costs include health care
and health
insurance, lost economic productivity, absenteeism, lost wages
and
cleanup. The Precautionary Principle process also requires
decision-makers to consider possible impact to the local economy.
Our Precautionary Principle calls for a careful analysis
of a range of
alternatives using the best available information. The goal
of this
process is to determine whether a potentially hazardous activity
is
necessary, and whether less hazardous options are available.
For
instance, our pesticide reduction program eliminated all of
the most
toxic chemicals used by city gardeners and identified less-toxic
ways to
solve weed and pest problems, some as benign as using goats
to clear
weed-choked hillsides or heat cannons to kill termites in
walls. Science
provides vital evidence for making these decisions. However,
elected
officials will ultimately use a combination of scientific
data and
judgments of what is necessary, useful and fair to make environmental
decisions.
Both locally and internationally, the public bears the direct
consequences of environmental decisions. A government's course
of action
is necessarily enriched by broadly based public participation
when a
range of alternatives is considered. This concept of environmental
democracy is deeply ingrained in San Francisco's Precautionary
Principle.
At the World Trade Organization, the Bush administration
is fighting the
European Union's right to restrict imports of genetically
modified foods;
beef containing hormones, and proposed legislation that would
require
some 30,000 chemicals now in use to be immediately registered
with EU
authorities. The failure of the United States to adopt the
Precautionary
Principle is yet another way in which we are ostracizing ourselves
from
the rest of the planet.
San Francisco's Precautionary Principle presents a historic
opportunity
to refocus environmental decision-making on reducing harm.
In doing so,
we are sending a message to Washington: The days of letting
polluters and
industries set our health and environmental agenda may be
over sooner
than you think.

of the
Environment (www.SFEnvironment.com).

Total
Information Awareness as Intellectual Property Theft (excerpt)
For some years now there has been a movement by a small percentage
of
scientists and independent researchers to develop technology
outside of
corporate government control.
This is highly frowned upon, as we have come to find out,
because
technology is the key to this oligarchys welfare, and I do
mean welfare.
They are incapable of original thought or creativity, just
as Bill Gates
was incapable of creating DOS without a MAC. They PREY (IT
WORKS) on
people who have voluntarily withdrawn from the mainstream,
with Total
Information Awareness in place. It has been labeled Information
Warfare
but really is just Information Blood Sucking. Lots of proof
of this, daily.
Consider the chemical spraying going on in our skies nearly
every day.
This has been going on now for over 10 years. It is a measure
of Americas
Mind Control that very few people have even noticed this,
and even less
understand its true applications as weaponry. When this same
weaponry
was deployed in its testing phases over Iraq/Kuwait, during
the gulf war
(http://home1.gte.net/quakker/Documents/Chemtrails_Over_America.htm),
those people saw what it was immediately, and the setting
of fires to
the oil wells there by saddam, was not so much the practice
of scorched
earth, as it was an attempt to defeat the atmospheric technology
being
tested on that populace. And yet, somehow, through the mind
control,
this government here in America has convinced most of the
people who ARE
beginning to look up now, that this spraying of barium and
aluminum
particles is BENEFICIAL.
The best weapons are weapons that control the mind, and it
is easily
seen in this instance.
As well, very few people here understand the surveillance
technology
that has permeated our society for over a decade now, and
one of these
surveillance applications makes use of monitoring computers.
It is
called tempest, and other things. It can monitor any work
done on a
keyboard (AND NOW HARD DRIVES!!!) and has been perfected.
It has
dovetailed with field technology, antenna technology (HAARP),
so that
actual wireless monitoring of computer work (and all other
types of
work) is not just possible, but practiced routinely. This
institution of
a police surveillance state here is nothing but a way to make
past
illegal monitoring activities legal, and to expand them.
The general consensus among independent researchers who are
subjected
to this monitoring surveillance is that it is better to stall
research,
than to give this world government any more weapons of destruction.
A
lot of technology being indepently developed could be very
beneficial,
but we all know that government only has its eye on MILITARY
applications, and those who have left the scientific community,
or never
entered it (and we are many) represent an unknown factor which
grows
daily, and this fills the war hawks with GREAT unease. It
has been going
on since the drug war began, this alienation of some of Americas
and the
Worlds best minds. The world government take-over machine
tipped its
hand you see, and we collectively boogied on down the road.
This alarms the NWO greatly, because up until this time they
have had no
trouble controlling the people economically, which was the
main point of
taking over the currency here, and in the world.
Control of technology took place by giving everyone JOBS,
by making
everyone NEED jobs, and then absconding with anything developed
under
the auspices of a corporate entity. It is the very anti-thesis
of a free
economy and open market place.
Take heart though. Intelligent minds have been using the
surveillance
as Reverse Control for a good decade now, and reverse control
WORKS. If
you know you are being watched, and now EVERYBODY is, or that
is the
ultimate goal and should be in place soon, then you have a
tool, a
lever. It works very well. You will never know the events
of the past
that were hinged on this covert activity by a few patriots
of free
thinking and intellect. But soon you will be able to try it
yourself.
Total information Awareness means Total Reverse Control. All
it takes is
patience and cunning. Join the movement.
The people you see in your media (Radio, Television, Newspapers)
are
nothing put there to make you want something that is at best
unreal.
Which, NOW, is EVERWHERE. Total Information Awareness? Total
Information
THEFT.

Tongass
National Forest action
Stepping up its campaign to give timber companies access to
America's
last great temperate rainforest, the Bush administration's
Forest
Service wants to exempt the Tongass National Forest in southeastern
Alaska from the "roadless rule," which bans virtually
all logging in
wild national forests. If the exemption goes through, the
administration
can move ahead with plans to let logging companies cut more
than 300,000
acres of unspoiled forest and build taxpayer-subsidized roads
through
2.5 million acres of the richest old-growth spruce, hemlock,
cedar and
pine forests in the Tongass.
Less than six months ago widespread public opposition, including
messages from more than 25,000 BioGems Defenders, led Congress
to reject
an administration-backed proposal to exempt the Tongass from
the
roadless rule. Now, ignoring public opinion, the administration
is again
seeking to hand the Tongass to timber companies. The Forest
Service also
wants to exempt the Chugach National Forest, which lies northwest
from
the Tongass along Alaska's southern coastline. Together the
Tongass and
the Chugach, America's two largest national forests, cover
more than 22
million acres of remarkable landscape and critical habitat
for bears,
wolves, lynx, salmon, northern goshawks, bald eagles and other
wildlife.
Send a message to the Forest Service today -- before the
August 14
deadline -- opposing the proposed roadless rule exemptions
for the
Tongass and Chugach national forests.
