Middle Nowhere
The Way we Were
Looking for a good book for your kids?
I’ve just read ‘The Middle of Nowhere’ by Geraldine McCaughrean and loved it.
Eleven-year-old Comity Pinny lives in the Australian outback - at Kinkindele Telegraph Repeater Station Number Four. Her father’s job is to retransmit Morse code messages along the Overland Telegraph Line, which is two thousand miles long - too far for messages to travel in one burst. (No satellite phones in this story!)
That’s the background for Comity’s adventures and travails, involving the seriously threatening Quartz Hogg (man, not beast), Comity’s aboriginal friend Fred and an Indian camel driver called Moosa.
It’s a poignant, beautifully written story illustrating the need for harmony and understanding (“comity”) between cultures.

Biggest global health risk – Part 2
https://youtu.be/siCpus_7LNw
Last week I invited you to consider: what is the leading risk factor for disease and death across the globe?
Like me, you might have been amazed to learn that it’s not electromagnetic pollution, not chemicals, not fossil fuels. It’s big business!
And Dr Nicholas Chartres, from The University of Sydney, shared with us critical information about how big business influences science, influences regulators and influences public opinion so that its products are sold and used widely. Even though they’re harming our health.
Nick says, ‘There’s a handful of products out there essentially killing 50- 60% of the world.’

phone towers linked to genetic changes
Microwave News reports:
Cell Tower Radiation Linked to Genetic Changes in Nearby Residents
More Chromosomal Aberrations
A Finding Too Hot To Handle
enior European scientists are reporting that people living near cell phone towers show significant changes in their genetic makeup. This is the first time that chronic exposure to cell tower radiation has been linked to unrepairable genetic damage.
A team led by Wilhelm Mosgöller of the Medical University of Vienna and Igor Belyaev of the Slovak Academy of Sciences in Bratislava contend that years of low-dose RF exposure can increase the incidence of a number of different types of chromosomal aberrations. Such changes could lead to serious, though uncertain, health consequences, including cancer and neurological disease. (Chromosomes are strands of DNA coiled around proteins.)

‘Arrogant’ tech companies must ‘fess up’ to harm done to children by social media, Albanese says
Meta’s claims that social media doesn’t harm children ‘can’t be taken seriously’, inquiry told
Tech executives need to “fess up” to the damage their platforms have caused, the prime minister says, while taking aim at the “arrogant” and “out of touch” social media companies.
Anthony Albanese’s comments come after Meta, which owns Facebook and Instagram, told a parliamentary inquiry in Canberra it didn’t think social media had harmed children.

Family of 5 sick near 5G tower
https://youtu.be/fTfaHAkZJ7I
A Swedish couple with three young children rented a holiday cottage for three summers in a row. It was located 125 metres from a mobile phone base station.
The family’s first two holidays passed without any health problems. However, on their third visit to the cottage in 2023, all five family members developed health problems soon after they arrived.
What had changed since their last visit?
In the intervening year, three telecommunications companies had installed 5G antennas on the base station, exposing the cottage to levels of up to 43,400 µW/m2.
According to Professor Lennart Hardell and Mona Nilsson who documented the case, the parents, both aged 39, experienced severe sleeping problem, headaches, fatigue and irregular heartbeat. The woman also experienced serious, but less severe dysethesia (abnormal sense of touch) and numbness and the man experienced breathlessness.

Mobile phone radiation not as safe as we were told
https://youtu.be/eefqYPL49R0
In March this year, a study was published claiming to show that mobile phone use did not increase the risk of brain tumours.1
In it, Professor Maria Feychting and her team reported what they found when they followed-up a group of people who’d taken part in an early study, known as COSMOS, to see if there was a link between their mobile phone use and increased rates of various brain tumours.
They claimed there wasn’t.
The authors wrote, ‘…[I]n, in the first follow-up of COSMOS, the world’s largest multinational prospective cohort study specifically designed to investigate potential health risks of mobile phone use, we found no evidence that long-term or heavy mobile phone use is associated with the risk of glioma, meningioma, or acoustic neuroma,

Teenage boys are being 'bombarded' with misogynist content online. It's making its way into the classroom
News stories about the rise of misogynistic behaviour in schools are inescapable at the moment. Female teachers and students are facing harassment and sexual abuse in classrooms across the country.
It's a trend that has risen in the dark shadow of social media personality Andrew Tate and other anti-feminist or anti-women content influencers in the so-called 'manosphere', and it's pushing some female teachers to breaking point.
