PLEASE READ THE LAST PARAGRAPHS ON BOTH OF THESE LADIES AND GENTLEMEN. THESE GUYS DIDN’T GET THERE WITH  DEGREES IN GRANT WRITING OR PSYCHOLOGY. THEY ARE SCIENTISTS. LOOKS LIKE THE JOKE’S ON YOUR KIDS FOLKS.  

EXCERPT FROM EPA LETTER ON FCC EMF/RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES

EXCERPT FROM STATEMENT ON FCC EMF/ RF EXPOSURE GUIDELINES  FROM A KAISER EXPERT

The boss says you ain’t filmin’ us- Capish?

To those of you who know me quite well, June 27th is a very special date. This year has proven to be no exception. Today under a clear blue sky, with the jasmine in bloom and the firework stands going up, The Fullerton Informer showed up unannounced to the ASCIP’s executive committee meeting in Cerritos, which by the way, is a public meeting complete with an agenda, public comment and advanced notice.  I just figured golly, what better group to present the potential dangers that wireless classrooms pose to our school children than to the risk managers themselves. Heck no one in the Fullerton School District has given me the time of day so I even felt compelled to share my hypothesis on the EMF connection to Autism as a warning to the pregnant teachers to help keep the Xmods down for the districts and the teachers’ kids from ending up in special ed. I also felt compelled to explain that the FCC guidelines are not safety standards, allow for up to 1000 times the emissions of a cell tower in a classroom, ignore non thermal effects, are like the USDA school lunch hacks calling pizza a vegetable , and a 2000 mph speed limit in a school zone.

As is customary in all the public meetings we attend, we bring a camera and some handouts.   It turns out that Mr. General counsel himself wasn’t havin’ it. You guessed it, Mr. Feldhake of The Feldhake Law Firm told us we couldn’t film a public meeting that is governed by the Brown Act.  We asked him several times and he refused citing that he believed that it would be disruptive.  I chose to take the high road instead of waiting for the sheriff to arrive and embarrass him. We will take the recording as soon as it is available. Jeepers, don’t they remember anything from law school?  Oh yeah, the Brown Act-that inconvenient truth that haunts all bureaucrats at the trough.

This is slightly reminiscent of The Fullerton School District Superintendent,  Dr. Pletka and his disturbing letter telling me to basically pound sand when I asked to go into my children’s classrooms at a taxpayer funded public school to film and record EMF measurements in a room full of 35 Ipads humming away cranking out  EMF in the kids’ laps streaming back and forth with those industrial strength WiFi routers that are  situated right above some lucky students’ heads all day. I digress.

A little excerpt from the Brown Act:

A legislative body may discuss or act on some matters without considering written materials. But if writings
are distributed to a majority of a legislative body in connection with an agenda item, they must also be
available to the public. A writing distributed to a majority of the legislative body less than 72 hours before
the meeting must be made available for inspection at the time of distribution at a public office or location
designated forthat purpose; and the agendas for all meetings of the legislative body must include the
address of this office or location.28 A writing distributed during a meeting must be made public:
• At the meeting if prepared by the local agency or a member of its legislative body; or
• Afterthe meeting if prepared by some other person.29
Any tape or film record of an open and public meeting made for whatever purpose by or at the direction
of the local agency is subject to the Public RecordsAct; however, it may be erased or destroyed 30 days
after the taping or recording. Any inspection of a video or tape recording is to be provided without charge
on a video or tape player made available by the local agency.30 The agency may impose its ordinary
charge for copies.31
In addition, the public is specifically allowed to use audio or video tape recorders or still or motion picture
cameras at a meeting to record the proceedings, absent a reasonable finding by the legislative body that
noise, illumination, or obstruction of view caused by recorders or cameras would persistently disrupt the
proceedings.32
Similarly, a legislative body cannot prohibit or restrict the public broadcast of its open and public meetings
without making a reasonable finding that the noise, illumination, or obstruction of view would persistently
disrupt the proceedings.33

Today’s meeting fits all of the aforementioned like a glove. The only thing that was in the hall where we wanted to film was the carpet.  We will see what the Los Angeles County District Attorney has to say. Folks, there are millions of kids who will be potentially affected by being locked inside these microwave chambers for over a decade of their young lives with no long term studies on what this stuff does to them. This is being done so that the kids can play with these microwave transmitters instead of those evil textbooks or perhaps for other reasons.

Who knows, maybe what we presented today will have sunk in by late August and we can all go back to our daily lives instead of trying to stop what I believe to be the largest forced irradiation of school children that the world has ever seen. Time will tell. If it didn’t sink in, we will be back and they will just have to hear it again. We will keep you posted.

Good morning,

Posted by a local parent who cares deeply about all students.

WiFi In Schools

I am a mom of three in Fullerton.  Fullerton School District (FSD) is planning on having WiFi-enabled devices in every child’s hands.  WiFi in classrooms is a new and unique environment; for our children it means 6 – 7 hrs a day, continuous exposure to electromagnetic field (EMF) radiation, put out by powerful routers, for whole school years.  This has never been done before.

Enough research has been done.  Neuroscientists, medical doctors and researchers all know the harmful effects of WiFi in the schools:

Martha Herbert, Ph.D., M.D., Assistant Professor, Pediatric Neurology, Harvard Medical School, Massachusetts General Hospital

“RF has been shown to cause other potentially harmful biological effects, such as leakage of the blood brain barrier that can lead to damage of neurons in the brain, increased micronuclei (DNA fragments) in human blood lymphocytes—all at RF exposures that are well below the limits in the current FCC guidelines.”

“In addition, studies of living cells show that the cells start to manufacture stress proteins upon exposure to RF.  The stress response occurs with a number of potentially harmful environmental factors, such as elevated temperature, changes in pH, toxic metals, etc.  This means that when stress protein synthesis is stimulated by radiofrequency EMF, the body is essentially telling us that RF exposure is harmful.”

Martin Blank, Ph.D., Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons, Department of Physiology and Cellular Biophysics

As a mom, we naturally want our children to grow up to be healthy and productive adults.  After reading what these researchers, MDs, and scientists are saying, I hope you come to the same conclusion that I do:  the technology the Fullerton School District uses must be safe for our children.

All of these experts are saying the same thing:  WiFi in schools is not safe.   DO NOT USE WiFi IN SCHOOLS.  They are telling the public schools to use hard-wired technology, which is a safer and more reliable connection.  Federal Communications Commission (FCC) laws have not caught up and do not address the WiFi environment that FSD plans on putting in place.

Parties that stand to benefit or have a vested interest in the expansion of the technology market, most notably, the tech industry, fund the studies from other side that is saying that WiFi is safe.  Much of the tech industry research is based on thermal testing, and this leads them to say that wifi in the schools is OK.  The real issue is EMF radiation, not thermal damage.  The EMF research cannot be refuted by the tech industry, and as time goes on the body of research accumulates.   It is growing.

The Fullerton School District is not telling you this information.  Despite numerous attempts to get the FSD school board, principals, and teachers to acknowledge this growing body of research and evidence, it is completely ignored.   This information has been presented at the Fullerton School Board meeting on three separate occasions.  Fullerton School District is silent.

These are our children, please read the new information that is now available to us.  Let’s ask the question to FSD, “Why are you implementing wifi technology in our children’s school when so many scientists and researchers are saying it is harmful?”   These are our children, let’s get involved.

My hat goes off to the first one who can make heads or tails or glean one iota of meaning from the following propaganda piece:  https://thefullertoninformer.com/?attachment_id=1262

This propaganda piece was published right on the heels of our efforts to awaken the sleeping giant- the parents of children in the Fullerton School District, to the dangers of wireless classrooms. I just don’t get it and by the wording on that yellow piece of paper that came home with my children, it appears that neither do they.

Who is really controlling this thing?

So far, the media here in The O.C. and, specifically here in my hometown of Fullerton, which is rife with a diverse collection of media outlets, won’t touch this Fullerton School District classroom WiFi radiation business story with a ten foot pole. But up in Glendale, it appears that letters to the editor do get published.

http://www.glendalenewspress.com/opinion/tn-gnp-wifi-concerns-20130607,0,1691323.story

Our good friend Tony up there managed to get under someone’s skin and get them to let the cat out of the bag. Could it be that the good folks in  Glendale’s local media still believe in a free press? So far, I haven’t sensed the slightest inclination that we do down here in my hometown, where even the air is better, or is it? Tony you are a good man.

Folks, Fullerton needs some more Tony’s. Come on guys, stand up for your children. You stand up, cheer, scream and yell, and keep tabs on the scores and stats for all the ball games for a bunch of people who make ten thousand times more money than you do, and who by the way, could care less about your children. Hows about 3 cheers for Fullerton’s school children and a safe learning environment? With wireless classrooms, it sure looks like we don’t have one and believe me, I am not alone: http://www.wifiinschools.com/lausd-testimony.html

My sincere hope is that the men and women in this town will put down the remote and tune into this reality check channel instead. We all need to focus on this issue while you have your precious children home for the summer. Put them first in a big way by educating yourselves on this issue because it is here to stay ladies and gentlemen. Someday you will appreciate the fact that so are we. For more information on the dangers of wireless classrooms please explore the rest of this blog and also please visit another one of our good friends who cares deeply about all of our children as well:

http://www.wifiinschools.com/ 

This was sent to me by a mom in Fullerton who truly cares.  

I just read the California Department of Education, News Release: #13-62, dated June 6, 2013.  Here it is: http://www.cde.ca.gov/nr/ne/yr13/yr13rel62.asp

The first sentence reads:  “State Superintendent Tom Torlakson today hailed President Obama’s call to give more schools broadband internet access and wireless network capacity.”  This, after all the letters written to LA Unified School District by MDs, PhDs, and scientists imploring LAUSD to use wired technologies.  And, this is after all the pushback from the LA teacher’s union on using the wireless technology and pushback from parents across the state.

There is just so much information out there that says the EMF (electro magnetic frequency) radiation is harmful to our children.   It is available to us all. http://www.wifiinschools.com/lausd-testimony.html

As a mother of three, it is shocking that Torlakson can just turn a deaf ear to this information that is so important.  How does that happen?

As a mom, when you drop your child off for school in the morning, you don’t want one hair on their head harmed by being in the school environment.   I certainly don’t want my children experiencing “double strand DNA breaks” or “decreased sperm motility” or headaches, leukemia, etc.  What happens when a school decides for us, and makes the choice for our children, to be exposed to WiFi radiation?   Does the State of California have that right?

It seems as if the state believes that the Internet can only be accessed via an unsafe, wireless means.  We all know that is not true.  Yet, they are insisting on this.  Why?

Apparently, it makes no difference to Superintendent Torlakson, he won’t settle for safe and secure wired technologies.  No, he prefers to risk the health of millions of California children for the sake of what?  So that our children can run around with an iPad in their hands?

Why doesn’t the harmful radiation make any difference to Tom Torlakson?  Why isn’t he as concerned about the safety of our children as we  parents?   Mr. Torlakson, don’t you care about the health and welfare of our children?  Why can’t you take a precautionary stance on this issue and opt for wired technologies? Well as a matter of fact from his own re-election web page,http://www.tomtorlakson.com/story   we quote:  ” As the chair and founder of the California Task Force on Youth and Workplace Wellness, Tom has been a leader on banning junk food from our schools, providing healthier school meals, and promoting student health and fitness”.  

I don’t get it. Does damaging WiFi promote health and fitness?

As a mom, all I can say is that Torlakson needs to undergo the same forced irradiation as the Fullerton School District Superintendent, Dr. Pletka.

So, Tom Torlakson, here you go:  before our children are subjected to this UNPRECEDENTED WiFi EMF forced irradiation exposure, you must be the FIRST to step up to the plate.  We, the parents, insist that you sit in a massive building with a  35,000 WiFi routers and, 1,500,000 operating iPads at legal emission levels, 6 hrs/day for 180 days/year for 12 years.

At the end of that time, you tell us how that worked out for you.

Since you think it is OK to forcibly irradiate on our kids, we must insist that you be forcibly irradiated in a like manner.

One final thing, Mr. Torlakson, mom’s don’t take kindly to their children’s health being compromised.  We take a lot of care in raising our children.  We make sure they eat right, get to the doctor and dentist office when needed, and worry a whole bunch that they are growing up healthy and happy.  Raising children is truly a labor of love and one filled with blood, sweat, and tears, and a lot of sleepless nights.

After all of this, do you think you have the right to put our children in an unsafe environment just because you say so?

You don’t, Mr.  Torlakson.

 Fullerton mother of three-

Here is a letter from the F.S.D. to the Fullerton Informer site administrator:

Copy of Document (49) (2)

The F.S.D. claims that the classroom microwave EMF emissions are legal. They also refuse to grant us access to film and record our own measurements.  We at The Fullerton Informer believe that the microwave EMF emissions present in the classrooms, that the district claims are well below the FCC limits, are not safe.  We, by the way, are not alone with respect to our position:

 mail-attachment… (2)

 http://www.bioinitiative.org/conclusions/expert testimony

http://www.wifiinschools.com/lausd-testimony.html

The current FCC standards that the FSD is hiding behind are based on thermal (heating) effects of these microwave EMF emissions. The widely held view in the scientific community is with the dangers of the NON-THERMAL  interactions and effects on children at the cellular and molecular level that have been clearly demonstrated in the medical literature to be real. Therefore, we believe that the FCC guidelines are woefully inadequate, antiquated and allow students to be subjected to, what we believe to be, dangerous levels of microwave EMF radiation in the classrooms as a result of the use of these WiFi enabled devices and the networks’ industrial strength routers that can potentially result in long term health effects.  We believe that chronic exposure to these emissions is potentially very dangerous. Our position is to hard wire the technology in the classrooms as well as in your homes. By forcing the use of WiFi enabled tablets in the classroom, the Fullerton School District is then forcing the students and their families to operate and maintain a wireless environment in their homes so the students can do their homework on the wireless devices. Now even many of the after school day care facilities that serve the Fullerton students are considering installing wireless networks so that the students can do their homework on their tablets while in their custody before and after school. I believe that the willful ignorance of this information by the F.S.D, its Board of Trustees and its employees is not in the best interests of the students or even the community at large. The ramifications of their decisions have far reaching unintended consequences that we can no longer ignore.

This bears repeating, the wireless setting that the F.S.D.  is forcing the existence of  in the home, in the classrooms, and indirectly in day care facilities, is in our opinion, not safe for children, and especially for pregnant women or anyone else for that matter. The whole basis for this technology being safe is based on current FCC standards that completely IGNORE an entire realm of non-thermal physiological effects and the associated non-thermal mechanisms by which they take place. That is what we call uncharted territory folks. Most Fullerton students are there now and even more will be next year.

So all of the aforementioned begs the question.

We at the Fullerton Informer have been trying to get the Board’s and the administration’s attention on these potential dangers facing our children for months.

Why does it appear that the F.S.D just doesn’t get it?  

SEEDS NOT EXPOSED TO WIFI

SEEDS EXPOSED TO WIFI
Sure WiFi is safe for growing children, just not for growing seeds.

 I believe that a public health crisis is in the process of unfolding right before our very own eyes with 1 in 5 children now being diagnosed with a mental illness: CDC-1 in 5 children suffer from a mental disorder. 

We all want what is best for our children. As parents, we all want the best tools for learning, the best schools, the best teachers, and the best curriculum so that our children have a chance at a bright future in an extremely competitive world. There is no doubt about the need for technology. It is here to stay. It is because of it that you are reading this. But why does it all have to be wireless?  What about the health and safety concerns as they relate to our children? Could these emissions be harming our children? What is wrong with wires connected to computers? That is our contention: hard wire the devices in light of the recent L.A.U.S.D EXPERT TESTIMONY  and the recent  letter sent to the Fullerton School District Board of Trustees on 5-13-13 that all strongly suggest that WiFi is not safe for children in a room full of wireless transmitters (tablets).

We at the FullertonInformer.com  submit to you that we must delay the roll out of these wireless classrooms as the health concerns continue to mount. There needs to be designated classrooms at each grade level that have the technology hard wired for parents that choose NOT to subject their children to these emissions coming from the routers and the devices. The convenience is simply not worth the risk to our children.  Are you willing to take that chance? I believe we simply cannot afford to especially when it is totally unnecessary.  We have fiber optic connectivity right to the classroom walls. Why does it have to stop there?   

Our good friends over at http://www.wifiinschools.com/ shared the following  link to a story of a remarkable  group of 9th graders in Denmark, with no formal medical training, who with about 5 bucks produced a priceless experiment:

Experiments with Cress [and Wi-Fi] in 9th Grade attracts international attention [Denmark] 16th May 2013

Parents, look for yourselves and get a load of what two WiFi routers do to a bunch of poor little innocent seeds that were simply sitting too close to a pair of friendly WiFi routers. Poor things-they were just trying to grow up and make it in life.  What is all of this 21st Century learning nonsense gonna do to all of yours?   So which children will be getting the best seat in the house closest to the Cisco Aironet enterprise class WiFi routers in Fullerton’s new wireless classrooms that stay on all day long and have perfect attendance 180 days a year?  Hey gang, I am just the messenger and yes this experiment was peer reviewed- by the whole 9th grade class.

THIS CAME IN THIS MORNING FROM SOMEONE WHO WISHES TO REMAIN ANONYMOUS AND WHO HAS ASKED ME TO FORWARD THIS INFORMATION. SHE HAS FOLLOWED WHAT IS PRESENTED ON THIS BLOG AND DISTILLED THIS DOWN FOR YOU–

I Believe There Is A Link Between EMF Exposure and Autism.

The autism rate continues to grow. As of yet, the cause of this brain disorder REMAINS   unknown.

I believe that EMF (Electro Magnetic Frequency)  emissions from devices such as wireless computers, cell phones, tablets, cordless phones, wifi routers, wireless gaming controllers are damaging to the brain of developing fetus.

We have all seen what happens when a piece of metal foil or fork is accidentally left in the microwave. The microwaves hitting the metal creates an electrical discharge on the item.

Our bodies contain metals and when the EMF hits our bodies, it impacts our bodies, and if we are pregnant the fetus is also impacted. We believe that Carbonyl Iron, if taken as a prenatal vitamin, may provide a buffer to EMF exposure and can possibly prevent the incidence of autism.

There are two things that I believe that you can do to assist in the delivery of a healthy child:

1) Take prenatal vitamins containing Carbonyl Iron while pregnant or

2) Do your best to eliminate exposure to EMF emissions if not possible, be aware of possible EMF exposure in your surroundings and try to limit it. Hard wire your electronic devices.

The unexplained climbing rate of autism along with the expansion of EMF emissions and WiFi in our surroundings is very alarming. We believe the cause of autism to triggered by EMF exposure and are passing this information on.

Here is a  letter to The F.S.D. from a group of physicians: mail-attachment… (2)

You know just because the classroom microwave emissions are legal doesn’t mean that they are safe for our children.

The Fullerton School District Board of Trustees needs to stop hiding behind the outdated FCC guidelines that were based on thermal exposures established decades ago on marine infantry soldier type mannequins when non thermal dangers are an entirely different threat that we worry is potentially facing the children.

Acacia School’s BYOD Informational Meeting

Hot off the press…
For all 2013 -2014 5th & 6th grade families
Acacia Bring Your Own iPad Program
is expanding for the next school year!!
Please attend an important Informational Night to learn more about your
child’s participation in next school year’s BYOD program.
Monday, May 13th
6:00pm
Acacia School Multipurpose Room
*Please note that all parents need to attend a BYOD Info night prior to their
child participating in the program.*

Folks it has been two months since we began this mission to inform and educate staff and parents.  I have attended and spoken at school board meetings, handed out flyers, and sent mass emails to district staff, and set up this blog that links to many of the dangers of wireless classrooms.  We provided information that is well documented.  What do we get for our anniversary?

AN INVITATION FOR MORE RADIATION.

So what gives with the cold shoulder for the last 2 months?  Why does it appear that the entire administration is ignoring me, this blog and this information.  Why does the administration not answer my requests to film and take EMF measurements in the classrooms?

This came in to me last night from a  concerned mother who has been watching on the sidelines and who has read up on this issue.  I felt compelled to share this, as the sentiment contained here is shared by many who are now gaining the courage to speak on this issue.

We all care about our fellow human, that is certain. There are
so many good folks out there working tirelessly to do good
for the community. We are busy raising money through galas,
fund raisers, and reaching out for corporate sponsorships.
Everyone is saying “yes” we want to participate and help.

Our purpose is good . . . . . or IS it?

The FSD has in their plans an enormous expansion of WiFi-
enabled devices, one for each child’s hands. FSD believes
they are doing the best for the children, and the school and
community have gotten together to make this happen. Their
intentions are good.

But, what if FSD would actually look at the research and
studies that continue to grow. Even easier, just read the
letters from the following individuals and institutions

www.wifiinschools.com/lausd-testimony.html

Dr. Martha Herbert, Ph. D, M.D., Assistant Professor,
Pediatric Neurology, Harvard Medical School,
Massachusetts General Hospital.

American Academy of Environmental Medicine

Columbia University, College of Physicians and Surgeons,
Department of Physiology and Cellular Biophysics

Dr. Magda Havas, B.Sc., Ph.D., Environmental & Resource
Studies, Trent University, ON, Canada

Karolinska Institutet, Department of Neuroscience,
Stockholm

Joel Moscowitz, Ph. D, Director of Center for Family and
Community Health, University of California, Berkeley

Devra Davis, Ph.D. MPH, Environmental Health Trust

Antoinette Stein, Ph.D., Environmental Health Trust

Mary Beth Brangan, Co-director, Ecological Options
Network

Please keep in mind that this is only a partial list.

Each of these researchers and institutions is saying the
same thing: opt for wired technologies. The ones who
have studied the effects of wifi are in a position to make this
statement. The effects of WiFi in schools IS HARMFUL.

It is truly amazing what we can do when we set our minds
to it. But, what if we find out in the process that, while our
intentions were good, the fruits of our labor are harmful to the
children? This is the case, FSD.

This is the information we are trying to get FSD to sit down
and look at. It is not complicated stuff. The research does,
however, make very clear that the FSD wifi technology plans
are harmful to our kids.

You have been silent too long, FSD. It is time to do the
responsible thing and look at this information. Make evident
that your concern and care for our children outweighs a
commitment to the wrong road.
