The myth contained within the idea that exposure to wireless waves pose no risk! Perhaps the sky really is falling on a few or many unfortunates.
Read the link below and what was stated by WHO in the past, 2003 with an emphasis that peoples concerns were myths. It's as if one were stupid to be concerned.
WHO as myth spreader:
http://www.who.int/peh-emf/publications/en/mcmcradiationmobilephonebk.pdf
Recently, the WHO gives a concern level rating. One has to wonder at what point the words health hazard come into play. How many people have to die first?
Who can not be concerned that the WHO's inaction on this 'threat' is a bit like the Titanic heading straight for the proverbial iceberg.

Fwd: Hours to landlock the tar sands
Avaaz.org - The World in Action Dear friends across Canada,
Right now, premiers from across Canada are in Halifax to discuss the fate of a dangerous proposal -- a mega tar oil pipeline that would slice through the heart of the Great Bear Rainforest and put its fragile ecosystem at risk. But one woman stands in the way -- and our massive outcry could get her to delay, and even bury this project for good.
Right now, Canadian premiers are in Halifax discussing the fate of a mega-pipeline that would traffic Alberta's dirty tar oil to the Pacific Coast. But BC Premier Christy Clark knows that the hugely unpopular deal could cost her party critical election votes. Her firm opposition could delay the project and even kill it for good. Hold Christy's feet to the fire by signing below:
B.C. Premier Christy Clark knows that the hugely unpopular deal could cost her party critical votes in the upcoming election, so for the first time, she has publicly said she won't green-light the project, unless Enbridge and others meet several of her economic and environmental demands. It's a start, but it's not enough. If tens of thousands of us act now, we can persuade her to stay firm, delay the project and even carry it to its deathbed
Pressure on Christy Clark is mounting -- as the head of the province where the pipe will end, she has tremendous power to put the brakes on this reckless deal. Call on her to reject the Northern Gateway pipeline by signing the petition below and forward it to everyone. When we reach 50,000 signatures, it'll be delivered straight to the meeting in Halifax:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/24_hours_to_landlock_the_tar_sands/?bBEuVbb&v=16574
Enbridge insists that their pipeline -- criss-crossing an astounding 1,177km from Alberta's dirty tar sands to the B.C. Coast -- will be safe. But their abysmal track record with over 800 oil spills in the last decade tell another story. In 2010, it took them 17 hours take action on a disastrous oil spill in Michigan, even though they knew the pipeline was corroded eight years before it happened!
Amidst enormous public outcry, Clark has listed a series of demands -- including strict oil-spill response systems, protection of aboriginal rights, and more economic benefits to BC -- before she gives the project the go ahead. She realizes that the risks of the pipe could outweigh the rewards, and may even cost her party the next election. In Halifax, she will be heavily courted by the provinces who stand to make millions from the pipeline. Now with a massive outcry we can make sure she not only holds her ground, but pushes further to protect us from the pipeline altogether.
The meeting is happening now -- let's come together to place the spotlight on Clark and demand that she keeps Alberta's deadly tar oil at bay. Sign here and forward to all your friends and family:
http://www.avaaz.org/en/24_hours_to_landlock_the_tar_sands/?bBEuVbb&v=16574
The journey ahead won't be easy -- Harper stopped listening to Canadians about the environment a long time ago. But today, our movement has the power to intervene in this process and demand change, as we did recently with our victory over the Keystone XL pipeline. Let's act now to protect our country and the world from Alberta's deadly tar-oil.
With hope,
Jamie, Ari, Emma, Emily, Ricken, Melanie, and the whole Avaaz team

Senior IMF Staff Member Resigns in Personal Protest
Below, but first my take on this:
I think the IMF was way, meaning 5 years, behind the ball on this one. An idiot would have known in 2002 of a bubble situation. That idiot was me and I wrote about it at the time in blogs. In addition, when I told my seniors about the impending Asian Crisis of 1997, they had six months to put some actions or at least warnings and writing in place, but did nothing!
IMF members, such as Canada, really don't understand the crucial role that SDR-like valuations of currencies can play in exchange rate adjustment and in providing an early warning system. Would that Europe had the sense to create an artificial SDR like currency unit?
Occasionally, the tiny butterfly really does produce hurricane-like conditions, but don't let me go on, that's non-linear forecasting.

WASHINGTON—A senior International Monetary Fund economist has resigned and written a scathing letter to the board blaming management for suppressing staff warnings about the 2008 global financial crisis and for an alleged pro-European bias that he says exacerbated the euro-zone's debt turmoil.
"The failure of the fund to issue them [warnings] is a failing of the first order, even if such warnings may not have been heeded," Peter Doyle said in a letter dated June 18 and copied to senior management.
"The consequences include suffering (and risk of worse to come) for many, including Greece," he said. He added that "the Fund for the past two years has been playing catch-up and reactive roles in the last-ditch efforts to save" the euro.
Mr. Doyle, a U.K. national, is a former division chief in the IMF's European Department who was responsible for non-crisis countries. He shifted earlier this year to a position as an adviser to the IMF. His resignation is expected to take effect in the fall.
Mr. Doyle's job change occurred around the same time a new European Department chief was appointed. A senior IMF official said the new chief restructured the department, replacing many of its staff.
"After twenty years of service, I am ashamed to have had any association with the Fund at all," Mr. Doyle said in the letter, which was earlier reported by CNN. Mr. Doyle wasn't available to comment further.
IMF spokesman Bill Murray said some of the substance of Mr. Doyle's remarks "are well documented in the public record," including in reports by the IMF's Independent Evaluation Office and comments by Christine Lagarde, who became managing director a year ago. The auditor said last year the IMF failed to act as the world's watchdog ahead of the global financial crisis. In one report, the office said IMF staff often felt pressure to align conclusions with the views of IMF management.
The IMF, which is supposed to make independent assessments of the global economy, is owned by its 188 member nations.
Much of the criticism in the letter tracks the views of many outside economists and some IMF member countries.
The IMF has faced increasing complaints for extending a big bailout package to Greece despite the country's persistent failures to meet the terms of its rescue agreements. Some economists believe the IMF should have urged a restructuring of Greek debt much earlier, but acquiesced in the face of strong opposition with Europe's political leaders.
If Greek debt had been restructured at an earlier stage, those economists say, Europe might have been able to stem its crisis. More broadly, many economists say the IMF hasn't been as tough on European aid recipients—in both the policy prescriptions in the bailout agreements and in the IMF's willingness to withhold funds when the terms weren't met—as it has with emerging-markets countries in Asia and Latin America.
The IMF's leaders and staff economists have ramped up warnings about the euro zone over the past year, but have often failed to push European policy makers into quick action.
