Abstract

This review aims to cover experimental data on oxidative effects of low-intensity radiofrequency radiation (RFR) in living cells. Analysis of the currently available peer-reviewed scientific literature reveals molecular effects induced by low-intensity RFR in living cells; this includes significant activation of key pathways generating reactive oxygen species (ROS), activation of peroxidation, oxidative damage of DNA and changes in the activity of antioxidant enzymes. It indicates that among 100 currently available peer-reviewed studies dealing with oxidative effects of low-intensity RFR, in general, 93 confirmed that RFR induces oxidative effects in biological systems. A wide pathogenic potential of the induced ROS and their involvement in cell signaling pathways explains a range of biological/health effects of low-intensity RFR, which include both cancer and non-cancer pathologies. In conclusion, our analysis demonstrates that low-intensity RFR is an expressive oxidative agent for living cells with a high pathogenic potential and that the oxidative stress induced by RFR exposure should be recognized as one of the primary mechanisms of the biological activity of this kind of radiation.

Brain Wave Warping Effects of Mobile Phones
 
A concerning new clinical study published in PLoS One titled, "EEG Changes Due to Experimentally Induced 3G Mobile Phone Radiation," has revealed that so-called 3rd generation (3G) cell phone technology has widespread brain wave disrupting activity in subjects exposed to real-world like conditions, i.e. 15-minute "talk time" exposure to the ear area.

AB57 Panned on NBC TV in San Francisco

NBC in San Francisco has picked up the AB57 story. We need to get other major outlets in the state on board with this gross mistake of proposed law.

Is WiFi technology damaging our health?

A growing number of people claim they have sensitivity to electromagnetic radiation and are worried short range wireless broadband technology is harming their health.

"I suffer from electromagnetic-hypersensitivity," explains the 60-year-old Catholic. James was a senior lecturer in physics at Australia's oldest and most prestigious tertiary institution, the University of Sydney. That is, until his condition forced him into an early retirement.
 
In 2011, the WHO categorised electromagnetic radiation as a Class 2B possible carcinogen.

CBC - How are employers accommodating your disability?

I did not have luck getting 'on air' to speak on behalf of those with EHS, but I did leave the following comment.

By combining custom integrated directional technology with the new 802.11ac standard, the ZoneFlex P300 bridge system delivers blazingly fast broadband connectivity between locations miles away. With its internal antennas, it offers hundreds of megabits of performance at line of sight distances up to 8 kilometers, and over 20 kilometers with external antennas.
 
 
Hey Ruckus, what about the cancer risk (WHO type 2B carcinogen) and all the other known adverse health effects of wireless radiation.  Don't you care?

ES - UK Fundraiser
 
I have made the possibly foolish decision to 'walk' up Ben Nevis in August to celebrate a big birthday, my son will accompany me and my partner has paid all my travel costs.

Ben Nevis is 4,406ft high and the track is some 16KMs long and I am now in training.

I have established a Go Fund me page in favour of ES-UK registered charity 1103018 and
Donations may be made via: http://www.gofundme.com/yg8nse8

Many of you are already incredibly generous to ES-UK but on this occasion you might encourage a neighbour or family member to get involved in our cause and sponsor my climb.

Kind regards

Retired Electronics Professor Wants To Create Wi-Fi
Free Refuge

Gary Johnson of Canon City doesn't go far without his gigahertz solutions radio frequency detector. The retired electronics professor even takes the handheld contraption to church with him.

"I would be sick after going to church," he said.

He said would get hit by a debilitating fatigue which would last 24 hours after attending Sunday service.

CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTING AT THE INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON NON-IONIZING RADIATION (ICNIRP)

REPORT PREPARED BY AVAATE (VALLISOLETANA ASSOCIATION OF AFFECTED BY MOBILE PHONE ANTENNAS) ON CONFLICT OF INTEREST EXISTING AT THE INTERNATIONAL COMMISSION ON NON-IONIZING RADIATION (ICNIRP).

SUMMARY:

This paper has been prepared in order to demonstrate the existence of numerous conflicts of interest among the members of the international organization ICNIRP (International Commission on Non Ionizing Radiation Protection. In Castilian, the International Commission for Non-ionizing radiation), that despite its private nature, is recognized by the World Health Organization (WHO) as reference entity to set limits of exposure for people of non-ionizing radiation in order to prevent such radiation affect your health.
The fact that the members of the organization engage in various conflicts of interest, being related to companies interested in the development of telecommunications and new technologies, undermines the impartiality that should govern the regulation of limits on non-ionizing radiation people.
It's incomprehensible that an international organization such as WHO, which has numerous and qualified public resources to establish adequately these limits, has delegated to a private organization issues affecting public health of all humanity.
The information contained in the work presented below was obtained from searches of reliable publicly available sources on the Internet, which can be checked by anyone who has an interest in this topic.
It would be very interesting by any natural or legal person interested in this topic assumes as its own this report (AVAATE authorized fully to do so) and send it to the authorities of the United Nations, of the International Labor Organization and of the World Health Organization of the Health.

'Web Junkie' doc pries open Chinese internet rehab camps for teen boys

Documentary filmmaker Shosh Shlam joins Shad to discuss her revealing documentary Web Junkie, which enters a Chinese camp for internet-addicted youth. She shares what she learned from three boys and their families and whether she sees the clinic as a harbinger for things to come in North America.

Wireless and EMF Reduction for Autism
 
83% of the children in Dr. Jelter's trials have shown measurable improvement after just 2 weeks, and the improvement continued on for months after the trial.  The 2 week trial was designed to convince skeptical parents, many of them who are engineers in high tech, that this would work.  Once they see that it does, they often go on to reduce other sources of wireless and EMF.

Smartphones now causing permanent health problems in chronic users

After careful examination, Estes and his neurologist concluded that the nerve damage was coming from Estes incessant craning over to use his smartphone. The neurologist pointed out that the nerves at the top of Estes neck had become compressed and in a perpetual state of inflammation, all because Estes bent his neck over routinely to see his smartphone.

UK woman with electromagnetic hypersensitivity can't be around gadgets

Former architect Emilie, a resident of France's Ambert village, has a very rare disease. Emile is suffering from electromagnetic hypersensitivity (EHS), and therefore she cannot be in the vicinity of any modern electronic devices.
