Americans get most radiation from medical scans

We fret about airport scanners, power lines, cellphones and even microwaves. It's true that we get too much radiation. But it's not from those sources — it's from too many medical tests. CONTINUE

Agency Looks At Risks Of Airport Body Scanners

An recent inter-agency report states that air passengers should be made aware of the health risks of airport body screenings and governments need to explain any decision to expose the public to higher levels of cancer-causing radiation.

The Inter-Agency Committee on Radiation Safety’s report said pregnant women and children should not be subject to scanning, even though the radiation dose from body scanners is "extremely small." CONTINUE

Did HAARP cause Haiti's earthquake?

HAARP is a form of Electromagnetic technology; the U.S. military is using this as a way to manipulate Earth's electromagnetic fields for the purposes of: disabling communications over a large area while still maintaining their own communications, and to search for oil and other natural resources and also to detect low-flying aircraft and cruise missiles regular radar cannot detect.CONTINUE

Project Blue Beam

[Note: Serge Monast [1945 - December 5, 1996] and another journalist, both of whom were researching Project Blue Beam, died of "heart attacks" within weeks of each other although neither had a history of heart disease. Serge was in Canada. The other Canadian journalist was visiting Ireland. Prior to his death, the Canadian government abducted Serge's daughter in an attempt to dissuade him from pursuing his research into Project Blue Beam CONTINUE

Universe has more entropy than thought
New calculations suggest that the cosmos is more disorderly than thought and is a bit closer to heat death.

Discovery Brings New Type Of Fast Computers Closer To Reality

ScienceDaily (Sep. 28, 2009) — Physicists at UC San Diego have successfully created speedy integrated circuits with particles called “excitons” that operate at commercially cold temperatures, bringing the possibility of a new type of extremely fast computer based on excitons closer to reality.

New Kind Of Search For Dark Energy: First Light For BOSS
ScienceDaily (Oct. 2, 2009) — BOSS, the Baryon Oscillation Spectroscopic Survey, is the most ambitious attempt yet to map the expansion history of the Universe using the technique known as baryon acoustic oscillation (BAO).

Physicists Explain How Human Eyes Can Detect Quantum Effects

How human eyes could detect quantum entanglement: A single-photon qubit is amplified through cloning via stimulated emission in a nonlinear crystal (red box).  The clones are split into two orthogonal polarization modes, with the polarization basis varied with the help of a wave plate (green box). Each mode is then detected by a naked human eye. Image credit: Pavel Sekatski, et al
