32 Shot Dead

an eternity with punctuation
Shiite Cleric

my father with that shovel
into deeper turmoil

peacekeepers in Darfur

suicide bomber struck
police officers

an amiable senior
memorable for his ready smile

Presiential candidates

investigators had hoped
to extract more
Cheddarvision

two serving penalties
would churn into oblivion

go beyond expressive faces
and opposable thumbs

guns are frighteningly easy

Are mobile phones wiping out our bees?

2007-04-17 Thread phanero

http://news.independent.co.uk/environment/wildlife/article2449968.ece



Scientists claim radiation from handsets are to blame for mysterious 'colony 
collapse' of bees
By Geoffrey Lean and Harriet Shawcross
Published: 15 April 2007

It seems like the plot of a particularly far-fetched horror film. But some scientists suggest that our love of the 
mobile phone could cause massive food shortages, as the world's harvests fail.
They are putting forward the theory that radiation given off by mobile phones and other hi-tech gadgets is a possible 
answer to one of the more bizarre mysteries ever to happen in the natural world - the abrupt disappearance of the bees 
that pollinate crops. Late last week, some bee-keepers claimed that the phenomenon - which started in the US, then 
spread to continental Europe - was beginning to hit Britain as well.
The theory is that radiation from mobile phones interferes with bees' navigation systems, preventing the famously 
homeloving species from finding their way back to their hives. Improbable as it may seem, there is now evidence to back 
this up.



Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD) occurs when a hive's inhabitants suddenly disappear, leaving only queens, eggs and a few 
immature workers, like so many apian Mary Celestes. The vanished bees are never found, but thought to die singly far 
from home. The parasites, wildlife and other bees that normally raid the honey and pollen left behind when a colony 
dies, refuse to go anywhere near the abandoned hives.


The alarm was first sounded last autumn, but has now hit half of all American states. The West Coast is thought to have 
lost 60 per cent of its commercial bee population, with 70 per cent missing on the East Coast.


CCD has since spread to Germany, Switzerland, Spain, Portugal, Italy and Greece. And last week John Chapple, one of 
London's biggest bee-keepers, announced that 23 of his 40 hives have been abruptly abandoned.


Other apiarists have recorded losses in Scotland, Wales and north-west England, but the Department of the Environment, 
Food and Rural Affairs insisted: There is absolutely no evidence of CCD in the UK.


The implications of the spread are alarming. Most of the world's crops depend on pollination by bees. Albert Einstein 
once said that if the bees disappeared, man would have only four years of life left.


No one knows why it is happening. Theories involving mites, pesticides, global warming and GM crops have been proposed, 
but all have drawbacks.


German research has long shown that bees' behaviour changes near power lines.

Now a limited study at Landau University has found that bees refuse to return to their hives when mobile phones are 
placed nearby. Dr Jochen Kuhn, who carried it out, said this could provide a hint to a possible cause.


Dr George Carlo, who headed a massive study by the US government and mobile phone industry of hazards from mobiles in 
the Nineties, said: I am convinced the possibility is real.


The case against handsets

Evidence of dangers to people from mobile phones is increasing. But proof is still lacking, largely because many of the 
biggest perils, such as cancer, take decades to show up.


Most research on cancer has so far proved inconclusive. But an official Finnish study found that people who used the 
phones for more than 10 years were 40 per cent more likely to get a brain tumour on the same side as they held the 
handset.


Equally alarming, blue-chip Swedish research revealed that radiation from mobile phones killed off brain cells, 
suggesting that today's teenagers could go senile in the prime of their lives.


Studies in India and the US have raised the possibility that men who use mobile phones heavily have reduced sperm 
counts. And, more prosaically, doctors have identified the condition of text thumb, a form of RSI from constant 
texting.


Professor Sir William Stewart, who has headed two official inquiries, warned that children under eight should not use 
mobiles and made a series of safety recommendations, largely ignored by ministers.

The faculty to speak and the reflection about one's language are inherent
characteristics of human beings. According to Ferdinand de Saussure's thesis
human language can be divided into three fundamental aspects: the biological
preconditions for speaking (langage), the fixed system of rules and signs
(langue) and the act of speaking itself (parole). The supposition that the
language-system and the speechact are linked reciprocally and that there is
no backflow into the system without speaking, it gets clear that the human
language withdraws itself from an immediate observation. It can only be
examined in the course of the reconstructing its process of appearance, that
is, its articulation.

Is language thus an exclusively virtual product, the existence of which
begins and ends up with its realization?

Die Faehigkeit zu Sprechen und die Reflexion ueber die eigene Sprache sind
dem Menschen inhaerent. Den Thesen Ferdinand de Saussures folgend, koennen
drei fundamentale Aspekte der menschlichen Sprache unterschieden werden: die
biologischen Voraussetzungen zum Sprechen (langage), das abgeschlossene
Regelsystem von Zeichen (langue) und der Akt des Sprechens an sich (parole).
Nimmt man an, dass das Regelsystem und der individuelle Sprechakt in einem
wechselseitigen Verhaeltnis zueinander stehen und ohne Sprechakt kein
Rueckfluss in das System von statten gehen kann, so wird klar, dass sich die
menschliche Sprache unmittelbarer Beobachtung entzieht. Sie kann nur im Zuge
der Rekonstruktion ihres Entstehensprozesses, ihrer Artikulation, betrachtet
werden.

Ist Sprache ein rein virtuelles Erzeugnis, dessen Existenz mit seiner
Realisierung sowohl beginnt als auch endet?

Virginia Tech - Andrew Sullivan (fwd)

from recovering neo-con, Andrew Sullivan.  To the point.

Imagine that this kind of massacre happened every day. Imagine a police
force that was far too small to even respond to most of
them. Imagine this occurring repeatedly for years until the perpetrators and
their accomplices became the de facto power-brokers
throughout the land. Imagine the shootings also being accompanied by the
brutal torture of victims. Imagine families never having
finality on whether their own siblings or parents or children have been
murdered or not.

This is Iraq today. Now think of the justified rage many feel at the VT
campus police chief and university president for
misjudgments. Now imagine them presiding over several more massacres in the
same place. Ask yourself: why do we not feel as
enraged by those responsible for security in Iraq? Are those victims not
human beings too? Are they not children and mothers and
fathers and sons? Are we not ultimately responsible for them, having
destroyed the institutions of order in their country?
