Please, anyone --
I need to know whether to relocate. When I open any window of my 3rd floor apartment in a new Canoga Park, CA, senior building, an E-Field detector lights up and beeps. There are a dozen big power poles and three transformers outside, but the local electric company says that EMF readings underneath them are normal.
I'm most concerned about a 51-acre Boeing/Rocketdyne/Teledyne facility about 100 yards away, and a lot of funny-looking cones on the roof of the nearest building. The Boeing "Phantom" website lists such Canoga Park facility projects as radiation effects simulation and testing, testing of trusses for the Space Shuttle's electrical functions ("station power up"), kinetic energy weapons, THAAD propulsion, a multi-mission radio isotope thermoelectric generator (MMRTG-powered, space-based laser, etc. There may be other stuff too classified to publish. Boeing did settle a lawsuit after 9 lab workers got leukemia, but I think that was elsewhere.
I am 74 years old and have not felt well since I moved into this place. But in order to get Housing Authority (Section 8) authorization to move, I will need some sort of scientific substantiation. Has anyone any suggestions about where to start?

Did a Secret Military Experiment Cause the 2003 Blackout?
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Regretfully, because I am a research scientist, and because I face the possibility of certain repercussions in my field of work for revealing this information to the public, I cannot reveal my true identity. I believe the facts I have presented herein are sufficient to speak for themselves and should convince the public that oversight is needed when experimenting with aspects of the atmosphere that are not well known…

HAARP Blackout
http://www.bariumblues.com/dear_all.htm
Bariumblues.com has received a Linux pdf from someone asserting that he is an ionospheric researcher who has worked with HAARP. He says that HAARP most likely created the blackout of 2003 in Canada and the USA. We have transcribed the pdf into html to make it more accessible. The document is short and convincing. We thought you would want to know about this.

The Hum
------------
When I sent in the link about 'The Hum' it was because it was given to me that day (Saturday) by an electronics specialist, after hearing of some of my problems. He came to my home to do tests but could find nothing, other than my electrics are in some way connected to others in the row. After he left I read the link and thought it may be of interest to member of the elfred list, and others who may be suffering from strange 'phenomena'.
If that same guy came out while the disruptions were active, he might be able to detect lots of information. True, but try getting someone out at the exact time of any problem! Please read about the electrician above, that came out when the problem was happening. They actually seem bemused and look quite serious by it, but it's as if nothing can be done.
Sorry, Cheryl re-reading this I thought you were asking is there only me in the house, and replied yes.
To begin with this only affected me in my home, but soon after it began I started to experience it in places where I usually go, although not out shopping. I've also had inexplicable bruising on the upper, inner side of my home whilst away from my home, (very deep dark small bruises) and awoke one morning to the side of my face painful and swollen against my right ear which I believe was due to something as I slept. It made me feel very ill.
On holiday after a bad night I noticed the following night that the room I was in was the only one with no balcony light. It had been perfectly okay the night before. But out of all the dozens of lit balcony lights ours was the only one in darkness, and the light had to be replaced.
Can anyone tell me if others can be affected by this as during this bad night of what I call targeting whilst on holiday my ex husband awoke in extreme pain, and was rushed to hospital. Later, after numerous tests he was diagnosed with a suspected kidney stone. It was that night whilst he was in hospital not wanting to go out alone that I decided to read on the balcony, only to find the light broken. The only one in the entire block that I could see. The 'phone to reception was also affected.
We had actually moved our room just after arriving there due to a 'neighbour' blasting out loud music that made it impossible to sleep. I would add that I mistook my room door and put my key in the hotel room next door by mistake And it opened! I was shocked. The men were in there as they seemed to be all the time, and one came out and I apologised. A workman came later to change their lock. I also asked for ours to be changed. It was and a new card was given to us. It was after this we moved to another room, after which the em started.

--------
Hi Klaus: I am including with the latest info regards Pasadena fast, the short prefacing letter I sent with this attachment to the following:
Tim_O' Malley@Health.irlgov.ie (Minister for Health with responsibility for Mental Health),
fcrowley@amnesty.ie (Fiona Crowley is in charge of Amnesty International, Ireland's 2003 campaign for human rights for the mentally ill),
stephenmcmahon@eircom.net (S. McMahon is director of Irish Patients' Association),
info@mentalhealthireland.ie, mgoin@usc.edu (Dr. Marcia Goin is President of American Psychiatric Association Board of Trustees),
MedicalDirector@psych.org (Dr. James scully is APA Medical Director), ireland@sunday-times.co.uk (The Sunday Times, Irish Edition).
Best, Imelda, Cork, Ireland.
Greetings: The brave hunger strikers who have taken upon themselves to highlight and confront shocking abuses of mental health patients' human rights, worldwide, must be heartily congratulated on what they have achieved. The level of awareness now among mental health professionals and the public has been greatly magnified by their hunger strike.
To those of you in Ireland included in this email, I would like you to pay particular attention to the letter signed by a number of American specialists in mental health and addressed to Dr. James Scully, APA Medical Director. It can be viewed by pressing http://www.mindfreedom.org/mindfreedom/hungerstrike19.shtml within the attachment.
Also, all of you, please note carefully that electrohypersensitive sufferers are often misdiagnosed as psychotics/paranoid schizophrenics. For a short online statement on this that I authored, please google "EMF and Schizophrenia" (19/9/02). Some personal accounts of EHS patients who have been "sectioned" due to their doctors unfamiliarity with EHS sumptoms are posted online at "Citizens Initiative Omega."
Please help change this disastrous situation for EHS people.
Regards,
Imelda O'Connor

Hi Klaus: Yesterday, I received by mail somewhat more hopeful news about the status of my appeal against the negative decision of the IHRC (Irish Human Rights Commission) to grant me assistance with my legal case.
I will quote the pertinent sentences from this letter dated 5 September 2003, sent by Des Hogan, Senior Case Worker, IHRC, "The Commission's Review Committee reviewed the decision of the Casework Committee not to grant you assistance under section 10 of the Act at its recent meeting, which was rescheduled to Friday 29 August 2003.
I am to inform you that the Review Committee has asked the Casework Committee to reconsider the matter again."
He said I will hear from him in due course.
In my appeal submission to IHRC I focused on the facts that the doctors here, after I returned from CA in late '96 with severe EHS and sought their help, did not adhere in my case to the stipulated guidelines on how to determine a specific mental illness diagnosis.
In my appeal submission, I included guidelines they should have followed that are published in a medico-legal textbook PSYCHIATRY AND THE LAW (Dublin: Oak Tree Press, 1999; ISBN: 1860760694) by Professor Patricia Casey and Ciaran Craven and I requested them
to attend to the non-compliance with these procedures as evidenced in individual entries in my medical notes. I had of course submitted a complete copy of my medical notes (relinquished to me most reluctantly on an FOI appeal) to the IHRC. It is quite clear that standard procedures were not kept, in my case.
Interestingly, Professor Casey is highlighted in today's THE IRISH TIMES (p. 50) in a short article captioned, "'Vitriolic attacks' on psychiatry criticised."
Best, Imelda, Cork, Ireland.

Big Brother in your holster

"If you don't want Big Brother to stick himself right inside your guns, read this. If you live near Chicago or know activists or media people there, read this. Two companies, NEC and Hitachi, have announced radio-frequency ID chips (RFID) the size of the period in this sentence. These chips broadcast a 'unique identifying number' to nearby scanners --numbers that can be read through your clothes, your holster or your fanny pack. ... And NEC quickly announced one of its first intended uses: to track bullets. Every bullet ever manufactured on the planet." (09/08/03)

Hyperactivity computer games link
------------------------------------------
Hyperactive children spend much longer playing computer games and watching TV than healthy children, researchers say. They asked parents and teachers about the habits of children with attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder. Children with ADHD were more likely to play games based on fighting. Researchers told the Faculty of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry conference in York children with ADHD may develop unnatural patterns of media use.
It's important for parents to be fully engaged in what their children are getting from their media diet Dr Justin Williams, University of Aberdeen Researchers analysed 24 boys between eight and 12 with a clinical diagnosis of ADHD, a condition where children have problems of paying attention and impulsive behaviour. Another group of children recruited from a youth centre and an asthma out-patients clinic.
All the children were interviewed and questionnaires were given to parents and teachers. Sociability Children with ADHD spent 11.3 hours a week playing computer games, double the time spent by the other group. A third of those with ADHD preferred fighting-type video games while 59% preferred cartoons. In the other group, one in 10 enjoyed fighting games and 40% liked cartoons. Children with hyperactivity disorders were also found to watch television and videos for an average of 44.1 hours a week, compared with 36.4 hours a week for the other group. Teachers reported poor social abilities, rather than hyperactivity, were linked to computer games.
They suggest children with ADHD may be prone to abnormal use of media which affects their social skills and how they respond to treatment. Dr Justin Williams from the Department of Child Health at the University of Aberdeen, told BBC News Online: "The children who spend longest playing computer games seem to be the ones who are the least sociable. "They were the least socially able and the most technically able, which leads them to prefer computer games to social interaction." He said children with behavioural problems tended to prefer TV, particularly cartoons. "It's very important that we don't forget about things like the family situation, where kids can feel alienated in their bedrooms watching TV. "It's important for parents to be fully engaged in what their children are getting from their media diet." He added: "It's possible to get a lot out of TV, and there are lots of good computer games to play. "Parents should watch TV with their children, join in, rather than children being isolated."
