www.emfnews.org www.emfnews.org Out of great concern for the health of our fellow human beings do we – as established physicians of all fields, especially that of environmental medicine – turn to the medical establishment and those in public health and political domains, as well as to the public. We have observed, in recent years, a dramatic rise in severe and chronic diseases among our patients, especially: • Learning, concentration, and behavioural disorders (eg attention deficit disorder, ADD) • Extreme fluctuations in blood pressure, ever harder to influence with medications • Heart rhythm disorders • Heart attacks and strokes among an increasingly younger population • Brain-degenerative diseases (eg Alzheimer–s) and epilepsy • Cancerous afflictions: leukemia, brain tumors Moreover, we have observed an ever-increasing occurrence of various disorders, often misdiagnosed in patients as psychosomatic: • Headaches, migraines • Chronic exhaustion • Inner agitation • Sleeplessness, daytime sleepiness • Tinnitus • Susceptibility to infection • Nervous and connective tissue pains, for which the usual causes do not explain even the most conspicuous symptoms Since the living environment and lifestyles of our patients are familiar to us, we can see especially after carefully-directed inquiry a clear temporal and spatial correlation between the appearance of disease and exposure to pulsed high -frequency microwave radiation (HFMR), such as: • Installation of a mobile telephone …

This is probably an ordinary house spider of the sort we get in England. Following discussion (see the comments here), it seems it may be a hobo spider, Tengenaria agrestis. ‘Agrestis’ means clumsy, not ‘aggressive’. I think it’s clear enough for an expert to identify it exactly. The palps show up really well. Also, the spinarets are visible at the end of the abdomen. I shook it a little to make it move about but it wasn’t too upset by the experience. tench626 left a comment saying that many spiders can be identified from their genitalia and there are diagrams in this book: “The Collins Guide to the Spiders of Britain & Northern Europe” by Mike Roberts. At www.nt.gov.au/health/cdc/bulletin/sept_2005.pdf, there was discussion of this review: Langley, RL; A review of venomous animal bites and stings in pregnant patients. Wilderness and Environmental Medicine. 2004, 15 (3): 207-215. After discussion of the effects of snake venom there was this statement: “The frequency of foetal deaths after other venomous bites or stings is not known.” It seems there had been little concern about possible longer-term developmental problems. There is also discussion of possible means of reducing problems with mosquitos, with another of my videos here at YouTube. Please search for my username with ‘mosquito’.

www.xeneplex.info www.vibraboard.info www.xeneplex.info Multiple Chemical Sensitivity Treatment Public Health Issues in Medical Evaluation and Care of MCS Patients Many physicians are uncertain how to approach the evaluation and care of persons who have multiple symptoms that attribute to low-level chemical exposure. Although medical approaches and therapies differ considerably because of differing beliefs about MCS by physicians, all individuals who report suffering from chemical sensitivities should receive a competent, complete medical evaluation and compassionate, understanding care. The goal of this care should be to promote health without causing additional harm. Individuals should not be subjected to ineffective, costly, or potentially dangerous treatments. Appropriate care for well-characterized medical and psychological illnesses should not be withheld or delayed. The ramifications of recommending functional changes in workplace or home settings should be carefully considered. Medical Evaluation The identification of MCS is based largely on the patient’s description of the symptoms and the relationship of these symptoms to environmental exposures. The evaluation of an individual for MCS should, therefore, begin a complete and detailed history, including a comprehensive exposure history. The ATSDR/NIOSH Case Study in Environmental Medicine—Taking An Exposure History (ATSDR, 1992) is a useful guide for physicians unfamiliar with taking an environmental exposure …

In health news, Australian and New Zealand physicians say that work is beneficial to a person’s well-being. In the Australian and New Zealand Consensus Statement on the Health Benefits of Work, doctors said that working is good for health and also contributes to increased feelings of social inclusion. The Statement was endorsed by unions, business groups, health professionals, government authorities, and others. It stated, “Good outcomes are more likely when individuals understand the health benefits of work, and are empowered to take responsibility for their own situation.” The report was launched by the Royal Australasian College of Physicians and the Australasian Faculty of Occupational and Environmental Medicine. Our thankfulness, respected physicians and groups involved, for highlighting some of the many advantages of working. May all be blessed with healthy and fulfilling lives.

Paul Joseph Watson and Kurt Nimmo www.infowars.com March 15, 2011 Infowars analysis: In addition to under reporting the fires at Fukushima, the Japanese government has not told the people about the ominous fact that the nuclear plant site is a hellish repository where a staggering number of spent fuel rods have accumulated for 40 years. A contributor to the Occupational and Environmental Medicine list who once worked on nuclear waste issues provided additional information about Fukushima’s spent fuel rod assemblies, according to a post on the FDL website. “NIRS has a Nov 2010 powerpoint from Tokyo Electric Power Company (in english) detailing the modes and quantities of spent fuel stored at the Fukushima Daiichi plant where containment buildings #1 and #3 have exploded,” he wrote on March 14. The Powerpoint is entitled Integrity Inspection of Dry Storage Casks and Spent Fuels at Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Station and can be read in full here. The document adds a new and frightening dimension to the unfolding disaster. The Fukushima Daiichi plant has seven pools dedicated to spent fuel rods. These are located at the top of six reactor buildings — or were until explosions and fires ravaged the plant. On the ground level there is a common pool in a separate building that was critical damaged by the tsunami. Each reactor building pool holds 3450 fuel rod assemblies and the common pool holds 6291 fuel rod assemblies. Each assembly holds sixty-three fuel rods. In short …

Dentists with back troubles mentioned that after 1 — 2 hours working time the backache occurs, ie 42.4%.” Dr. med WHM Castro, Germany (“Social Medicine, Industrial Medicine, Environmental Medicine” July 1999) “Dentists, dental technicians and dental assistants, as well as others who sit to work, often have to accept as a condition of their work a body posture that causes them to be bent over and turned, and that produces static, one-sided use of certain muscle groups. The dentist or seated worker has to, through the day, function in this one-sided and stressful work position. This …

www.FantasticFutureOfNetworkMarketing.com Click Here For FREE Report Sharon and Tracy in this Video eloquently demonstrate how one of the defining employment statistics of the Great Recession seems to be that a growing and large number of workers are staying in undesirable work situations, waiting for an upturn in the economy to escape the hellish doom of a bad job. Hey, it’s better than nothing at all, right? Possibly not. It appears the mental toll a job with poor compensation, conditions or other trying circumstances takes on individuals can actually be worse for you than the crushing horror of unemployment in a down economy. A new study, published in the journal Occupational & Environmental Medicine, interviewed just over 7000 workers to reach the surprising conclusion Finding a high-quality job after being unemployed improved mental health by an average of 3 points on the researchers’ scale. But getting a poor quality job was more detrimental to mental health than remaining unemployed; people in this category showed a loss of 5.6 points. Researchers say the cost of sucky jobs could be higher than one might initially assume: Maybe a good a good time to investigate the benefits of Network Marketing.
