What You Need to Know About Smart Meters

[Mystic Wanderer]

If you haven't been visited by the electric company to have a new Smart Meter installed on your property yet, consider yourself lucky. But, don't get too comfortable, I'm sure you're on the list to get one soon.

Some people aren't concerned about the dangers of Smart Meters, while others fight the system every step of the way to avoid having one.

Many people have reported ill health affects after getting a smart meter.

Of course, we can also attribute cell phone towers, wi-fi devices, and smart phones to part of this problem, so we need to eliminate all the EMF around us as we possibly can to avoid ill health.

The National Toxicology Program found a statistically significant increase in brain cancers from exposure to cell phone frequencies. http://ntp.niehs.nih.gov/results/areas/c...index.html

In 2015, 220 scientists who had published in peer-reviewed journals from 41 nations signed the International Scientists Appeal. Their warnings included cell phones, infrastructure, Wi-Fi, ‘smart’ meter/grid technology, as well as devices like baby monitors and commercial broadcast uses. www.emfscientist.org

Not only are smart meters dangerous to your health, but they are also a fire hazard.

A fast-moving apartment building fire occurred on Thursday, February 6, 2014, in Bensalem, Pennsylvania when at least one smart meter exploded and caught fire.  Thirty (30) residents were displaced by the ensuing blaze at Bensalem’s Thunder Hollow apartments.  Sixteen (16) apartments were affected.  One firefighter was injured.  According to the Bucks County Courier Times, the Bensalem Battalion Chief Robert Sponheimer said the fire started in a utility meter in an outside shed that housed electrical meters.  He also said “residents reported hearing a loud bang, then losing power Thursday evening.  Within minutes they saw smoke pouring out of the shed.  The fire then spread to the building and its roof.”

Dramatic camera footage exists taken soon after the fire started, during the fire fighting activities, and during the recovery efforts, making you feel as if you are “on-the-scene” as it happens.  In the first video where you see the dramatic flames about 25 to 30 seconds into the video, they are emanating from an outdoor shed containing smart meters.

This new video (above) explains in simple terms these new revelations from the insiders, as well as new court documentation and other insights.
The whistleblowers (wishing to remain anonymous) who contacted us have serviced and repaired over 200,000 meters in the field. They have been warning their supervisors about ‘smart’ meter problems for nearly a decade now. They have had enough of the lies and want you to know what they know.

On top of the explosive new details, the meters have at least four major sources of arcing. That’s right — FOUR.
Arcing in ‘smart’ meters causes extreme heat, which causes fires. As we now see, it is beyond any shadow of a doubt that meter manufacturers know, utilities know, and regulators know. They have known the whole time, but they didn’t want to tell you.

In this investigation the focus on two of the worst offenders, BC Hydro and PG&E. However, as this is a systemic problem regardless of meter type, we feature fire incidents from Texas, Ontario, Saskatchewan, Pennsylvania, Illinois and more.

Now, as if these aren't enough reasons to fight the smart meter, consider that they can be used to spy on you in your home!
Read the article below:

Smart Meters can be used to spy on homes.

They are just now getting these devices in my town. A utility worker came by a few weeks ago to install one on my house.  I told him...
well, never mind what I told him. 

Point is, he didn't put one on my house!  He said I would have to pay extra for a guy to come out and read my meter.  I said that was fine by me.

Everyone needs to fight this, and fight it together.  It's just another thing the elite are setting up as a way to control us, and keep us sick, and I'm not buying it!

STOP SMART METERS

[Mystic Wanderer]

I just got around to watching last week's show on Open Minds with Regina Meredith last night.
It's about Smart Meters, and other wi-fi devices. Her guest goes into detail about how dangerous they are to our health, and tells some of the negative things they cause in the body.

If you don't watch the video, which you REALLY should, then let me tell you this much:  It seems that there have been a lot of couples in recent years who have had trouble getting pregnant.  This can be traced back to smart meters and wi-fi exposure harming the male sperm.  Then, if these people actually do get pregnant, the baby can be born with corrupted DNA. 

This is an excellent episode to learn so much.  I really hope people will take the time to watch it.

YOU ONLY HAVE 48 HOURS FROM THE TIME OF ME POSTING THIS TO WATCH.

@"DuckforcoveR" PLEASE, PLEASE,  at least watch the show above before you do that!  

[Mystic Wanderer]

Well, looky what I found!    

Regina was just discussing this in the show I posted, wondering if something like this could help reduce the EMF we are bombarded with, but the man said it would probably be several years in the future. 

Now I come across this.    

China builds five qubit quantum computer sampling and will scale to 20 qubits by end of this year and could any beat regular computer next year

Chinese researchers have built a 10 qubit quantum computer.
China builds ten qubit quantum computer, They will scale to 20 qubits by end of this year and could beat the performance of any regular computer next year with a 30 qubit system.
A chinese research team led by Pan Jianwei is exploring three technical routes to quantum computers:
1. systems based on single photons,
2. ultra-cold atoms and
3. superconducting circuits.

Experimental set-up for multiphoton boson-sampling. The set-up includes four key parts: the single-photon device, demultiplexers, ultra-low-loss photonic circuit and detectors. The single-photon device is a single InAs/GaAs quantum dot coupled to a 2-µm-diameter micropillar cavity


Pan Jianwei and his colleagues – Lu Chaoyang and Zhu Xiaobo, of the University of Science and Technology of China, and Wang Haohua, of Zhejiang University – set two international records in quantum control of the maximal numbers of entangled photonic quantum bits And entangled superconducting quantum bits.

Pan doubling that manipulation of multi-particle entanglement is the core of quantum computing technology and has been the focus of international competition in quantum computing research.

In the photonic system, his team has made the first 5, 6, 8 and 10 entangled photons in the world and is at the forefront of global developments.
Last year, Pan and Lu Chaoyang developed the world’s best single photon source based on semiconductor quantum dots. Now, they are using the high-performance single photon source and electronically programmable photonic circuit to build a multi-photon quantum computing prototype to run the Boson Sampling task.

The Chinese photonic computer is 10 to 100 times faster than the first electronic computer, ENIAC, and the first transistor computer, TRADIC, in running the classical algorithm.

The Hefei reporter ‘quantum device, called a boson sampling machine, can now carry out calculations for five photons, but at a speed 24,000 times than previous experiments.

ENIAC contained 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7200 crystal diodes, 1500 relays, 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors and approximately 5,000,000 hand-soldered joints. It could perform 5000 simple addition or subtraction operations per second.
ENIAC could perform 500 floating point operations per second.

The Chinese team led by Pan, Zhu Xiaobo and Wang Haohua have broken that record. They dependent developed a superconducting quantum circuit containing 10 superconducting quantum bits and successfully entangled the 10 quantum bits through a global quantum operation.
Nature Photonics – High-efficiency multiphoton boson sampling

They will try to design and manipulate 20 superconducting quantum bits by the end of the year. They also plan to launch a quantum cloud computing platform by the end of this year.

“Our architecture is feasible to be scaled up to a larger number of photons and with a higher rate to race against increasingly advanced computers,” they said in the research paper.

Professor Scott Aaronson, who is based at the University of Texas at Austin and proposed the idea of the boson sampling machine, questioned whether it was useful to compare the latest results with technology developed over 60 years ago, but he said the research had shown ” Exciting experimental progress “.

“It’s a step towards boson sampling with say 30 photons or some number that’s large enough that no one will have to squint or argue about whether a quantum advantage has been attained,” he said.

Araronson said one of the main purposes of making boson sampling machines was to prove that quantum devices could be shown to have an advantage in one area of complex calculations over existing types of computer.

“Doing so would answer the quantum computing sceptics and help pave the way towards universal quantum computation,” he said.

Abstract
Boson sampling is considered as a strong candidate to demonstrate ‘quantum computational supremacy’ over classical computers. However, previous proof-of-principle experiments suffered from small photon number and low sampling rates owing to the inefficiencies of the single-photon sources and multiport optical interferometers.

Here, we develop two central components for high-performance boson sampling: robust multiphoton interferometers with 99% transmission rate and actively demultiplexed single-photon sources based on a quantum dot–micropillar with simultaneously high efficiency, purity and indistinguishability. We implement and validate three-, four- and five-photon boson sampling, and achieve sampling rates of 4.96 kHz, 151 Hz and 4 Hz, respectively, which are over 24,000 times faster than previous experiments. Our architecture can be scaled up for a larger number of photons and with higher sampling rates to compete with classical computers, and might provide experimental evidence against the extended Church–Turing thesis.

Electromagnetic radiation from power lines and phone masts poses 'credible' threat to wildlife, report finds 

@"Mystic Wanderer"  Get Tinfoil hats for your Cat.

Electromagnetic radiation from power lines, wi-fi, phone masts and broadcast transmitters poses a ‘credible’ threat to wildlife, a new report suggests, as environmentalists warned the 5G roll out could cause greater harm.

An analysis of 97 studies by the EU-funded review body EKLIPSE concluded that radiation is a potential risk to insect and bird orientation and plant health.

However the charity Buglife warned that despite good evidence of the harms there was little research ongoing to assess the impact, or apply pollution limits.

The charity said ‘serious impacts on the environment could not be ruled out’ and called for 5G transmitters to be placed away from street lights, which attract insects, or areas where they could harm wildlife.

Matt Shardlow, CEO of Buglife said: “We apply limits to all types of pollution to protect the habitability of our environment, but as yet, even in Europe, the safe limits of electromagnetic radiation have not been determined, let alone applied.

“There is a credible risk that 5G could impact significantly on wildlife, and that placing transmitters on LED street lamps, which attract nocturnal insects such as moths increases exposure and thereby risk.

Sigh.  It would seem "they" just want to destroy ALL life on the planet, except for themselves of course.  I guess they'll be safe in their underground palaces until every living creature on the surface is dead, then they can turn the 5-G off and come back out to rule over their precious domain of dirt.
