Bernstein Liebhard LLP Reports On Study That Finds More Cell Phone Radiation Side Effects

SFGate

New York (PRWEB)

11th June, 2012

Bernstein Liebhard LLP, a nationwide law firm representing clients injured by cell phone radiation side effects, reports on a March 15, 2012 study, which found that exposure to cell phone radiation during pregnancy leads to hyperactivity and other behavioral problems in the offspring of pregnant mice.* Dr. Hugh Taylor and a team of researchers from the Yale School of Medicine conducted the study, which was published in Scientific Reports. The researchers exposed one group of pregnant mice to cell phone radiation from an active phone placed above the cage, and kept a control group of pregnant mice under the same conditions with the phone deactivated. They found that the offspring of the pregnant mice exposed to radiation developed behavior problems, which increased with the duration of cell phone radiation exposure. Specifically, the offspring of mice exposed to radiation tended to be more hyperactive with reduced memory capacity.

Après plusieurs mois d’agressions contre la Syrie et plusieurs milliards investis, le bilan des opérations occidentales est correct du poins de vue médiatique mais médiocre du point de vue militaire. Pis ! L’engagement des Chinois, des Russes et des Iraniens pour garantir la sécurité de la Syrie et le respect du droit international fait que le coût d’une guerre ferait sombrer les économies de ceux qui s’y laisseraient entrainer. Ceux qui souhaitent faire croire qu’un engagement militaire direct de leur pays dans la région ne serait qu’une simple « intervention » sont soit inconscients, soit mus par un agenda irrationnel.

George Osborne unveils £140bn scheme to kick-start stagnant British economy

Posted by seumasach on June 15, 2012

Effectively, another bail-out of the banks. Instead of facing the reality of the bankruptcy of the banks, their dodgy assets are to serve as “security’ for further funding from the Bank of England. Thjs will eventually lead to run on pound and hyperinflation.

Entretien avec Franck Biancheri

6th June, 2012

Jean-Paul Baquiast (JPB). Cher Franck Biancheri, je suis heureux de notre rencontre de ce jour, 6 juin 2012, tant pour les lecteurs de Automates-Intelligents et Europe Solidaire que pour moi personnellement. Nous vous connaissons depuis quelques années par la lecture de vos articles et interventions sur la situation politico-économique mondiale. Certains chroniqueurs vous avaient surnommé Mr Catastrophe car vous avez prédit, au moins depuis 2005, l’effondrement du système actuel globalement dominé par les intérêts financiers de Wall Street et de la City. Il s’est avéré cependant que ces prédictions se sont réalisées ou sont en train de l’être. Elles ne résultaient pas d’une vision extralucide mais des travaux d’un tout petit groupe d’experts, le LEAP, que vous avez réunis au sein de ce que vos amis appellent le premier think tank véritablement mondial.
