Bristol professor s advice: 'Limit children s use of mobiles'
A BRISTOL professor has advised that children should limit their use of mobile phones to minimise the risk of brain cancer. Denis Henshaw, emeritus presenter at Bristol University...
The AGNIR (Advisory Group on Non-Ionising Radiation) has produced a report on behalf of the UK Health Protection Agency (HPA). The document is entitled ' Health Effects from Radiofrequency Electromagnetic Fields ', April 2012.
The misleading nature of the report can be illustrated by the example of male fertility. A full description can be found on http://wifiinschools.org.uk/27.html
Of the studies listed in the present report, 18 found decreased measures of male fertility or damage to sperm (78%) and 5 found no effect. If the omitted studies are included in the data then 32 found damaging effects (80%) and 8 didn t (20%). Astonishingly, the conclusion was that there remains no convincing evidence that radiofrequency fields below current guidelines have any effect on male fertility. The word 'convincing' is a very subjective one and is mentioned a lot throughout the report. The authors were not convinced by the 18 papers finding measures of decreased male fertility, but were more convinced by the 5 which had found no effect. It isn t just about numbers, considering the quality of the studies is also important. But it is hard to understand how an honest assessment of the scientific literature could possibly conclude that there remains no (convincing) evidence that radiofrequency radiation can decrease male fertility.
Sonic.net Inc. Internet Provider CEO: ''I Hate Wireless.''
*Sonic.net Inc, CEO Dane Jasper writes, on his blog:
''Wireless is magic. You point two antennas at each other over a span of miles, and broadband comes out the other end. Most of the time.
I hate wireless. Today, we sold our wireless network.''
Several years ago, Sonic had hoped to install a free public wi-fi network in Sebastopol. But after months of campaigning against Sonic?s wi-fi, the Sebastopol city council decided to terminate their contract based on health and safety risks of wireless. Sonic now states it is retiring all of their public wi-fi projects!
CEO Jasper contends the wireless is difficult and their focus is changing to wireline services, which include fiber optics!

Prof Chase explains several critically important documents about smart meters
On a conf call (26 Apr 2012), Prof. Glen Chase explains several critically important documents about smart meters, privacy and health, in an easy-to-understand way.
? Did PG&E really admit in a court order that the average smart meter emits radiation bursts 14,000 times per day... and some up to 190,000?
? What is a key scientific research paper that the County of Santa Cruz Health Department base its no-smart-meter ruling on, and how it be easily understood?
? What does the science actually say about smart meters, in their advanced ability to report private details of your use for each appliance... and why do we not have access to this data in the home? What other facts are being withheld by utilities and governments?
Professor Chase teaches Systems Management specializing in Environmental Economics and Statistics; faculty alumn USC, Cal State, Monterey Institute of Intl Studies, Naval Post-Graduate School.
How many people are aware that the Utility Companies have been APPROVED for selling your private information to third party vendors??? Talk about your verticle market! No wonder they are so adamant about getting them installed despite the outrage from their customers. They are going to make more off of selling your data then they make off of selling you electricity!

'No evidence' that mobiles cause cancer, but scientists still cant rule it out
Anthony J. Swerdlow ''holds shares in the telecom companies Cable and Wireless Worldwide and Cable and Wireless Communications'' and that his wife ''holds shares in the BT group, a global telecommunications services company.''
Launching the 333 page report, which reviews hundreds of studies, group chairman Professor Anthony Swerdlow said: ''I think there s a need to keep a watch on national cancer trends in relation to this, particularly with brain tumours.
''So far brain tumour rates are not rising in the sorts of age groups who have had exposure for 10, 15 years.''
''But if this is something that takes 15, 20 years or more to show up ... we need to keep watch over rates just in case.''
Researchers running cohort studies, projects following individuals' health over their lifetimes, also needed to investigate the matter to see if heavy users of mobile phones tended to develop brain tumours more than others, said Prof Swerdlow, an epidemiologist at the Institute of Cancer Reseach.
The review found no evidence that radiofrequency (RF) electromagnetic fields caused by wi-fi - now widespread in schools, homes and the workplace - caused harmful effects, or could even be detected by those who claimed to be sensitive to it.
Neither did it find any evidence that mobile phone mast transmitters caused health problems.
The HPA published a new report on no risk, prepared by an advisory group. This group was presented in the Guardian newspaper as an independent group, but its chairman declared in a paper, which was published in the EHP journal, that he has a serious conflict of interest. This same paper was an attempt to downplay the IARC RF classification.
Despite the voices of industry-funded scientists saying otherwise there is concrete evidence that mobiles/cellphones and wifi cause cancer in humans.
In 2011 the IARC reclassified them as Class 2B, possibly carcinogenic, yet they actually had enough evidence if not the balls to go further and classify them as Class 2A, probably carcinogenic.
Here Dr Annie Sasco, Harvard Doctorate, ex-Head of the IARC on cancer research, ex-cancer specialist for the WHO and now group leader of an INSERM programme on cancer prevention in France, talks frankly in an exclusive interview about why we should be concerned, especially for children. Even if you don t use a mobile phone or wifi you are still affected. Watch this video for true facts, not industry-funded hype that there is no evidence of harm. It could save your life.
