Cellular
telephones and effects on the brain: The head as an antenna and brain
tissue as a radio receiver.
Weinberger Z, Richter ED.
Jerusalem College of Technology, Jerusalem, Israel
Abstract:
Headache and other neuropsychological symptoms occur in users of cellular
telephones, and controversy exists concerning risks for brain cancer.
We hypothesize these effects result from the head serving as an antenna
and brain tissue as a radio receiver. The frequencies for transmission
and reception by cellular telephones, about 900MHz for analog and 1800MHz
for digital transmission, have wavelengths of 33-35 and 16-17cm,
respectively.
Human heads are oval in shape with a short axis about 16 to 17cm in length.
Near the ear there will be a cross-section in the head with an axis half
the wavelength of RF/MW transmissions of 900MHz and equal to the wavelength
of RF/MW transmissions at 1800MHz.
Therefore, the human head can serve as a lossy resonator for the electromagnetic
radiation emitted by the cellular telephone, absorbing much of the energy
specifically from these wavelengths.
Brain cells and tissues demodulate the cell-phone's audio frequencies
from the radio frequency carrier. Low audio frequencies in the ranges
of alpha and beta waves affect these waves and thereby influence brain
function.
These effects state the case for a precautionary policy.

Klaus: Every government knows that in return for the convenience
of making calls from anywhere, people are willing to pay for a device
which emits a signal 24 hours a day. That allows the government to keep
track of those persons' movements (and when in use, their conversations).
No government will ever declare these devices unhealthy just because the
stooges who carry them are falling dead.

The cause of Cancer
Dear Sir,
I have been researching the cause of Cancer for over ten years. About
9 months ago I found the technical data needed to support my theory. I'm
attaching my Cancer report for your information.
I one of your messages, a gentleman said the he put on a aluminum bowl
to shield his brain from EMR radiation's. Please pass to him that aluminum
won't shield EMR radiation's. Thanks. I also provide EMR, EMF and Geopathic
radiation checks of homes and business.
Regards,
Delbert Parkinson
THE MAIN CAUSE OF CANCER is the 7-13% of Linear Alkyl BENZENE Sulfonic
acid (LAS) in Powder Laundry Detergent. The LAS chemicals remain in the
clothes when they are washed. They are absorbed into the body when worn.
See Dr Henry Lai, University Washington message below.
Del,
I think the most interesting paper is the first one. It shows that linear
alkyl benzene sulfonate is a potential carcinogen.

Genotoxic effects of linear alkyl benzene sulfonate, sodium pentachlorophenate
and dichromate on Tetrahymena pyriformis. J Protozool 1992 Jul-Aug;39(4):454-6

China.
DNA in macro- and micronuclei of Tetrahymena pyriformis treated with linear
alkyl benzene sulfonate (LAS) and sodium pentachlorophenate (PCP-Na) were
determined by microspectrophotometry. The effects on rate of formation
of macronuclear DNA extrusion bodies were also studied. We found DNA content
of micronuclei in 0.14 PPM LAS and 0.9 ppb PCP-Na was lower than in that
of the control, and LAS was able to increase the formation rate of macronuclear
DNA extrusion bodies (the formation rate was 54% in 11.3 PPM LAS and 25.6%
in 16.7 PPM dichromate). We concluded that 0.14-PPM LAS (below the maximum
acceptable toxicant concentration) were Genotoxic, whereas 0.014-PPM LAS
were not. Dichromate 0.05 ppm and 0.9 ppb PCP-Na, equal to and below the
maximum acceptable toxicant concentration, respectively, were potentially
Genotoxic.

of a newly developed detergent ingredient: sodium iso-nonanoyl oxybenzene
sulphonate. Br J Ind Med. 1990 Jun;47(6):405-10 Chest Unit, Newcastle
General Hospital, University of Newcastle upon Tyne.
The suspicion that a newly developed detergent ingredient, sodium iso-nonanoyl
oxybenzene sulphonate (SINOS), was inducing asthma among a workforce led
to a series of inhalation challenge tests to determine the specificity
and dose response characteristics of its asthma provoking properties.
Three previously exposed workers, three non-exposed non-asthmatic controls,
and three non-exposed asthmatic controls were challenged with SINOS 0.01-100
micrograms and another chemically similar surface active detergent ingredient,
linear alkyl benzene sulphonate (LAS) 0.01-100 micrograms. Asthmatic symptoms,
late falls in FEV1, and increases in non-specific bronchial responsiveness
were seen after the inhalation of SINOS in all three workers, confirming
SINOS as a cause of occupational asthma. No changes were seen after the
inhalation of SINOS in either group of control subjects nor after LAS
in any subject. These findings suggest that SINOS causes asthma through
a specific hypersensitivity mechanism unrelated to its surface-active
properties.

(Lymnaea vulgaris) in control and detergent-polluted samples. Ecotoxicol
Environ Saf 1984 Feb;8(1):97-9
A biostatic assay method involving 45Ca uptake into shells and tissues
of snails (Lymnaea vulgaris) in 72 hr was developed to follow the effect
of detergent-polluted water on ecosystems. There was a marked decrease
in the 45Ca uptake by shells and tissues of linear alkyl benzene sulfonate-exposed
animals as compared to controls. No change in 45Ca uptake was observed
in dead shells, thereby excluding the possibility of passive exchange.
Question: Would you knowingly absorb small portions of poison every day
into your body? You are if you are washing your clothes that were laundry
with powder detergent. There are three-web sites to help research the
cancer-causing LAS problem.
1. www.chemistry.co.nz/detergent_class.htm
this web site will provide you with all of the LAS information in powder
detergents. They call LAS with a different name of DDBSA.
2. www.netcomuk.co.uk/~rpeters1auf1det.htm
this web site will show you how the powder detergent is assembled.
3. www.pg.com/about_pg/corporate/sustainability/fabric_home.jhtm1
this web site will show you the Material Safety Data Sheets (MSDS) that
are required and are reported to OSHA. When you link any of the powder
detergents, you will see the 7-13% of "Linear alkyl benzene
Sulfonate" (LAS) that is in all of the powder detergents.
To check for powder laundry detergent that is remaining in your clothes
after you have washed them, rinse and wring out in hot water your underclothes
3-4 times to see, feel, and smell cancer slime that is left in your rinse
water and clothes. The amount can be very small, but still very toxic.
The 10-12 "moist" patches that are used to administer/deliver
chemicals into your body are at Micro to Nano gram levels. The "moist"
benzene detergents in your clothes when you wear them can be 1000 times
stronger. The bottom line is to prevent most cancers. Don't use powder
laundry detergents that have benzene. Liquid detergents don't have the
benzene molecule.

FAMILIES LOSE LEGAL
BID TO HALT RADIO MAST
11:00 - 26 November 2002
Families fighting plans for a high-powered radio mast near a Stroud school
lost their legal fight in the High Court yesterday.
People living around the police station in the Five Valleys town were
worried about mobile masts necessary for the upgrading of the police radio
network being sited just 60 yards from a primary school.
The case, spearheaded by Castle Street resident Susan Trevett, asked a
judge to overturn a ruling granting planning approval for masts in her
area. Her lawyers told Mr Justice Sullivan, sitting in London, that there
were anxieties over the "unknown and unquantified risks associated
with radiation from mobile phone antennae", including possible biological
effects, which were not being taken into account in guidelines relied
on by the planning authorities.
If the challenge had succeeded it would have meant the £2.9billion contract
for the police network having to be reconsidered.
The case marked the first High Court challenge to the siting of masts
for the network, called Airwave, which uses a controversial new technology
called TETRA.
The Lancashire branch of the Police Federation said in July that 173 officers
had reported falling ill after Airwave was introduced. The county was
one of the first places in the country to adopt the service.
Richard Buxton, solicitor for Ms Trevett, said before yesterday's court
hearing: "At the moment one's perception is that these masts are
being installed with no more than lip service being paid to residents'
concerns over possible health risks. "If we are successful, planning
inspectors will have to look much more carefully at those concerns, which
are very widespread."
In court David Wolfe, appearing for Ms Trevett, said she was seeking to
challenge a decision to allow planning permission for new telecom equipment
on three separate sites. The site of most concern to her was near her
home, at Stroud police station, where an existing mast was to be replaced
with a 13-metre mast, antennae and two microwave dishes.
The police station is 50 metres from Stroud Valley primary school's junior
department.
The other two sites are at Selsley Common, part of the Cotswold designated
area of outstanding natural beauty, and the West Ridge site to the north
of Wotton-under-Edge.
But Mr Justice Sullivan ruled the inspector's decision was "impeccable"
and there was no substance in the challenge.

Stop the Byzantio
by Radagast on 29 November 2002 @ 03:03 PM
Please act now to prevent yet another oil disaster.
The Prestige, which broke in half and sank off the coast of Spain
in the third week of November, was an aging oil tanker operating under
a "flag of convenience" - registered with a nation unconnected
with its owners to avoid or reduce regulation.
Now the owner of the thousands of tonnes of spilled oil, Crown Resources,
has loaded more fuel oil on another dilapidated tanker, the Byzantio.
The Byzantio is also a flag of convenience vessel (this time registered
with Malta). It is currently in port in Estonia, and is destined for Singapore.
