Scientists from 39 different nations are concerned about electromagnetic fields (EMFs) and radiation from mobile phones, tablets, laptops and other electronic devices. A group of 199 scientists have filed an appeal, titled “International EMF Scientist Appeal,” with the United Nations and World Health Organization (WHO) and have requested the organizations adopt more protective … [Read more...]
FCC’s Plan to Revitalize AM Radio Concerns Listeners
On May 15, iHeartMedia met with the FCC Media Bureau to discuss the current plan to revitalize AM Radio and to discuss an ex parte letter describing possible changes to AM radio stations. The plan in place will reduce skywave interference protection which make it easier for AM radio stations to operate and give users more flexibility. Jeff Littlejohn of EVP/Engineering and … [Read more...]
California Electrosensitive Haven can be Purchased for 8.6 Million Dollars
An apartment, Unit 4 at 2170 Jackson Street in San Francisco, Calif., is currently on the market for $8.6 million dollars. It’s reportedly a safe space for electrosensitives. “Electrosensitives” are people who have illnesses and attribute the cause to electromagnetic radiation emitted from electronic devices, such as phones, computers or wireless routers. The apartment has … [Read more...]
Astronomers Discover 17-Year Interference Caused by Microwave Oven
For nearly 17 years astronomers at Parkes Observatory in Australia searched for the reason why radio interference took place during experiments and observations. They discovered early this year that the interference was coming from a microwave oven in the observatory’s kitchen. Parkes Observatory houses one of the best-known radio telescopes in the country. It is used to … [Read more...]
Maglev Hovering Train Breaks Speed Record
A seven car Maglev (magnetic levitation) Train in Central Japan broke its own speed record when tested near Mount Fuji this week. In 2003 the Maglev’s record was 268 mph and last week it reached 366 mph. On Tuesday the Maglev surpassed both previous records and reached 374 mph. The Maglev train hovers four inches above the tracks and is propelled by electrically-charged … [Read more...]
Invisible Objects Created in the Microwave Range Without Metamaterial Cloaking
Physicists from ITMO University, Ioffe Institute and Australian National University have made homogenous cylindrical objects entirely invisible in the microwave range without metamaterial cloaking. Until now, invisibility relied on metamaterial coatings, which can change the direction of light and make light curve around cloaked objects. However, with a new understanding of … [Read more...]
FBI Pulled Security Expert from Flight for Alleged Hacking Concerns
The FBI pulled Chris Roberts, a computer security expert, from his United Airlines Flight last Wednesday in Syracuse because of suspicions that he hacked the airplane. Roberts tweeted referencing the plane’s communication systems suggesting he was going to use his laptop to force the plane’s emergency oxygen masks to deploy. The tweet read: “Find Myself on a 737/800, let’s see … [Read more...]

Mechanical Vibrations in Environment Aid in Generating Electricity
A group of research scientists at the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland announced they have found a new way to generate electricity. This method involves harvesting energy from vibrations in the environment and converting these vibrations into electricity. This was accomplished by connecting the bodies to an external circuit. The researchers generated this energy by … [Read more...]
New Die-attach Adhesives Announced
Creative Materials, Inc., has announced its new electrically conductive die-attach adhesives for semiconductors, called Electraset. The reliability, durability and efficiency of this new series remains untouchable by other companies in the industry. Other advantages of this series include optimized rheology (which results in less spreading, lower bleeds and less tailing … [Read more...]
