Israeli Municipalities Appeal to the High Court
------------------------------------------------
Herzelia and Ramat Hasharon municipalities appealed to the high court to
order the cooperation of the municipalities representatives in choosing
the location of cellular antennas because of concern to the citizens health.
The municipalities appealed with the cooperation of the planning and
building committees, to cancel the order which enforces local committees
to enable erection of cellular antennas without having the right to
consider the subject, and without informing the public.
Yesterday (Sunday) the high court decided that the appeal would be
discussed before the courts vacation which starts in July. The
municipalities demand to implement the precaution principle near
sensitive population like schools, hospitals and old people.
The appeal was filed by lawyers Raanan Har Zahav, Lior Katz and Zev
Zytman, says that the national plan TM"A 36 enables erecting antennas in
every point in Israel, without informing the public, without letting the
public to be part of the decision process, without giving the public the
basic rights to resist, by tying the deliberation of the public
representatives who were neutralized from influence.
It is also claimed that the radiation permissions for the antennas, the
safety standards, the regulation- all these are centralized by one
person in the Environment Ministry, and he acts with no authority by the
law. He has to consult a professional body which is the Health Ministry
and the Environment Ministry but this body does not exist anymore for
the last 10 years.
The opinion of Dr. Zamir Shalita was enclosed, he explained that the
standard in Israel doesn't protect the citizens and that there's a real
base for the public concerns.

Cell Tower Updates: Can You Hear Me Now?
-------------------------------------------------
Dear Klaus:
Thank you for signing Public Employees for Environmental
Responsibility's e-petition on Cell Phone Towers in national parks.
Your signature and support is extremely important as PEER and others
pressure the National Park Service to create an agency-wide policy that
curbs the proliferation of cell towers throughout the national park system.
Only one park of 397 has adopted a cell tower plan. Instead,
telecommunications companies are now going park to park. In the latest
case, Cingular has asked the Great Smoky Mountains National Park to
build three towers.
Since PEER's last call to action, cell towers in the national parks have
been widely covered in the media. But that is only the beginning. Read
below and see what Members of Congress are getting involved or visit
PEER's campaign page for news and highlights:

International Scientific Conference : Childhood Leukaemia, Incidence,
causal mechanisms and prevention
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------\
---------------------------
The following UK conference comes at an opportune time for Australia.
Currently the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency
(ARPANSA) is conducting an inquiry into revising the current power
frequency exposure standards (1000mG residential/5000mG occupational) as
a result of the NRPB's Doll report on the doubling of the risk of
childhood leukaemia at a level of 4 milliGauss. Within weeks ARPANSA is
starting a 50 home, Melbourne EMF survey to determine the extent of EMF
exposures in the sample homes chosen. It is very much an issue on the
front burner here at the moment.
Will ARPANSA go against the science and simply re-instate the old ICNIRP
1000/5000 mG limit dogma or will they act to lower the allowable levels,
considering the standard is supposed to be a "health based standard"?
Whatever the case we should know by the end of this year.

Ross Adey died on May 20
-----------------------------
Posted on the Microwave News website. Dr. Adey's death is of signifance
because of the man and his work. For those who knew him, he was a true
inspiration. I hope others will review his work on electromagnetic
radiation and health. This man was a medical doctor as well as a
scientist. He chose to spend the later part of his life passionately and
brilliantly promoting lower EMR exposure standards. May he rest in
peace. Go to http://www.microwavenews.com

May 2004
W. Ross Adey died on May 20th at the age of 82 after a long battle
against a series of bronchial infections. Adey, a medical doctor, was a
towering figure in the EMF community, who was equally at ease talking
about the most recent papers in the biological and medical literature or
dissecting the arcane engineering details of an experimental setup. He
is perhaps best known for discovering, with Suzanne Bawin, the first
non-thermal effect of electromagnetic radiation during the 1970s: They
showed how ELF-modulated RF signals can lead to the release of calcium
ions from cells. While at the Brain Research Institute at the University
of California, Los Angeles, he worked with the Department of Defense on
Project Pandora, the super-secret program that sought a way to use
electromagnetic radiation for mind control.
In the late 1970s, Adey set up a new lab at the VA Hospital in Loma
Linda, CA, where he carried out studies on the role of power frequency
EMFs in the promotion of cancer and later, on the potential cancer risks
following exposure to cell phone radiation. As the chair of a committee
of the National Council on Radiation Protection and Measurements (NCRP)
investigating ELF health effects, Adey made waves by recommending strong
action to curb public exposures. He endorsed a 2 mG exposure standard
for 50/60 Hz EMFs (see MWN, J/A95). This was too radical for the NCRP
leadership and today, close to ten years later, the council continues to
refuse to release his report. Adey prompted another stir when his
studies of long-term exposure to cell phone radiation pointed to what
appeared to be a protective effect -that is, exposed mice developed
fewer tumors (see MWN, M/J96, J/A96 and S/O99). Motorola, which paid for
Adey's experiments, repudiated this finding and soon afterwards stopped
supporting his lab. It closed down a short time later. In an interview
with Fortune magazine in October 2000, Adey urged that research
continue: "There is a big task ahead to define what the lowest level of
safe exposure could be," he said, predicting that, "Wherever we go we
will be immersed in a sea of low-level pulsed microwave signals." A
memorial service will be held in a few weeks in the Los Angeles area.

Motivation is not a problem for anyone who accepts the extraordinary

“Where do the wars and where do the conflicts among you come from?
Is it not from your passions that make war within your members?
You covet but do not possess.
You kill and envy but you cannot obtain; you fight and wage war.
You do not possess because you do not ask.
You ask but do not receive, because you ask wrongly, to spend it on your
passions.”

early church)
