Thinking about buying a new cell phone? What phone service should you get? What phones will work the best for your needs? Are there any good deals out there? These are some of the question you might have when buying a cell phone. The best place to do some comparisons shopping of course is online. But did you know that some people just look online, and then turn around and purchase their new phone at a retail stores. Why? On average most retail stores do not have as good a deal or selections of cell phones like the online stores do. Let’s face it online stores have less overhead and phones are shipped directly from the carrier of your choice. In fact, most of the services that the retail stores offer have to be done over the phone or online after you purchase your phone from them. If you need a live person to feel secure about your purchase, then go to the retail store. But if you want the best deals on the hottest phones then buy online. Check out online stores like www.phoneskip.com they not only offer you a wide variety of service plans and phones, but the also offer you a choice between ordering online, or by phone (toll free). These services are not just for new sign ups either; you can also upgrade your phones and plans online.

“The voluntary exposure of the brain to microwaves from hand-held mobile phones… [is]
the largest human biological experiment ever.”
~ Professor Leif Salford, Head of Research at Lund University, Sweden
There are now estimated to be 208 million cell phone users in the U.S. alone, 1.9 billion
worldwide. Scientists fear we may be on the verge of a health crisis of epidemic
proportions. Dr. George Carlo, former chief scientist of the cell phone industry’s $28
million safety research project, predicts 500,000 new cases of brain and eye cancer each
year by 2010 attributable to cell phone use (there are currently 30-50,000 cases each
year).
Studies have linked cell phone radiation to health problems such as headaches, high blood
pressure, brain tumors, cancer, Alzheimer’s, and more. There is a latency period for most
diseases and it may take years and more studies before the required weight of evidence is
established. But the effects are cumulative and precautions should be taken now before it
is too late.
Here are some steps you can take to minimize the effects of cell phone radiation exposure:
1. Limit use to essential calls and keep calls short. Even a two-minute call has
been found to alter the natural electrical activity of the brain for up to an hour
afterwards.
2. Children should be allowed to use the cell phone in cases of emergency only.
Because of their developing skulls, the radiation can penetrate much more deeply.
3. Wear an airtube headset (not regular wired headset). The regular wired headset
has been found to intensify radiation into the ear canal. The wire transmits not only the
radiation from the cell phone but also serves as an antenna attracting EMFs
(electromagnetic fields) from the surroundings
4. Don’t put the cell phone in your pocket or belt while in use or while it is on.
The body tissue in the lower body area has good conductivity and absorbs radiation more
quickly than the head. One study shows that men who wear cell phones near their groin could
have their sperm count dropped by as much as 30 percent.
5. If using the phone without a headset, wait for the call to connect before placing the
phone next to the ear.
6. Do not use the cell phone in enclosed metal spaces such as vehicles or elevators,
where devices may use more power to establish connection. The metal enclosure also acts as
a Faraday cage that traps the radiation and reflects it back onto the occupants.
7. Do not make a call when the signal strength is one bar or less, which means the
phone must work harder to establish a connection.
8. Purchase a phone with a low SAR (Specific Absorption Rate). Most phones have a
SAR level listed in its instruction manual. The SAR level is a way of measuring the
quantity of radiofrequency (RF) energy that is absorbed by the body. The lower the number
the better. (Be aware, however, that studies with RF hundreds of times lower than current
SAR limits still show biological effects.)
9. Use a scientifically validated EMF protection device. There are advanced
technologies available nowadays that strengthen your bioenergy field and immune system
against the effects of EMF. The EMF radiation causes a problem only when the cumulative
effects due to repeated exposure weaken the body’s ability to repair itself. Even when you
don’t use the cell phone, ‘second-hand’ radiation and EMFs from other devices can also
cause biological stress, so these types of devices are increasingly becoming essential.
10. Take nutritional supplements, particularly anti-oxidants SOD, catalase, glutathione,
and Coq10. Microwave radiation has been shown to decrease levels of these anti-oxidants
in the body. These are substances the body produces to protect itself, and their levels are
sensitive indicators in stress, aging, infections and various other disease states. Other
supplements you may need are:
– Melatonin: a powerful anti-oxidant noted to prevent DNA breaks in brain cells. Also
effective in preventing kidney damage from cell phones;
– Zinc: protects the eye from oxidative damage and helps preserve the levels of
anti-oxidants in the blood;
– Gingko Biloba: an herb considered a powerful anti-oxidant which prevents oxidative damage
in the brain, eye and kidney. Also helps support the production of SOD, catalase and
glutathione;
– Bilberry extract: preserves vision and reduces oxidative damage to the eyes.
This list is not exhaustive but represents different layers of intervention you can do
right away to protect yourself and your family. Cell phone radiation (and wireless
radiation in general) poses an extreme public health risk that may take years to become
fully realized. Some experts go on to say that if estimates are correct, then we are on the
verge of a health crisis that could cripple our current health infrastructure. Let’s not
wait and find out if this proves true.

It was captivating watching The Telephone Bank Robber on television, wasn’t it? The police say they have a big suspicion that it may have been or could have been Candice Rose Martenize just because she has a resemblance to the zillion pictures we all saw on television.
The police caught Innocent Until Proven Guilty Candice Rose Martenize in a North Virginia suburb. I think that “Martenize” is an alias. Out here in Idaho we spell it “Martinez, Martinis,” and some non-teetotalers after 4 P.M., “martini.”
I’ve made a scientific study of the case.
We learn at: http://cellphones.about.com/b/a/026565.htm
“September 15, 2003 “New cell phone radiation danger: bloody brain damage…
“According to a British scientist, cell phones can ‘cause proteins to leak across the blood-brain barrier’, which could lead to early senility. The scientist, quoted by The Independent, says the long-term effects are not proven, and that damage could repair itself, but he also explains that people that used to become senile around 60 could now do so in their 30s due to intense exposure to radiation.’”
Radiation is not good for your brain, especially if you are a rat!
We learn at: http://cellphones.about.com/b/a/056798.htm
“January 12, 2004 Rats get visible brain damage from cell phone radiation
“The February issue of Popular Science has a short piece about a Swedish study involving rats exposed to cell phone radiation. A classic approach, but this time brain damage is visible and it’s freaky! A picture of a rat brain after cell phone exposure shows many dark spots, apparently leaked blood vesels (vessels) and damaged neurons. Of course, the industry has been quick to dismiss the study, but other scientists are gearing up to try and replicate these findings. So far, the most prevalent scientific opinion on cell phone radiation is essentially that it is too weak to damage the human brain…”
You got it?
Cell phones can fry your brain, especially if you are a rat.
Our Innocent Until Proven Guilty Candice Rose Martenize or “Martinez, Martinis,” or “martini” is most likely completely innocent.
If cell phones can cause early senility, they can change your love-abiding personality to that of a money-hungry cell-phone-talking bank robber.
That’s my theory and I’m sticking to it.
Why would such a Innocent Until Proven Guilty lovely young creature ever want to do anything other than to love and benefit her fellow human beings, especially old men in Idaho?
Innocent Until Proven Guilty didn’t do it on purpose!
For those of you who think the Phone Bandit was just dumb, here is a story:
“Robbed the Post Office November 17th, 2005.
“A man moved to the small rural community I live in and rented a box at the local Post Office. In order to rent the box he had to show picture ID and give his physical address and phone number. He lived in line sight of the post office just off the main road. Two days later he robbed the Post Office at gun point, the local police and postal inspectors merely had to walk across the street to arrest him at his home. His mail is now being forwarded to a federal correctional facility for the next several years.” (http://www.dumbcrooks.com/)
