People in Europe and Asia have enjoyed high-speed trains for years. This Japanese train set a speed record of 581 kilometers an hour. Yet the fastest American train reaches less than half that speed. It operates only between Washington and Boston. Transportation Secretary Ray lahood says changes are coming to American trains. RAY LAHOOD: The day will come when you can see travel from Los Angeles to San Francisco in under three hours going 220 miles per hour. Work on a high-speed train could start in California in two years. Conditions might be right for such a train. President Obama has announced plans to spend eight billion dollars to develop high-speed railroads. John Risch is with the countrys largest labor union for railroad workers. JOHN RISCH: In California alone, it is estimated that 160000 construction jobs would be created just to build those two high-speed rail corridors. The federal project will develop 13 high-speed rail links. Steve Kulm works for Amtrak, the passenger railroad company. He says only the links in California and Florida will truly be high-speed. STEVE KULM: There is a difference between, you know, high-speed in Europe and Asia and high-speed in America. In Europe and Asia, they are dedicated tracks where only high-speed trains operate on. Here in America, our passenger trains share tracks with slower freight trains. Most of the money will go to improve service on slower trains and existing transportation. Kulm says Amtraks fastest train is …

Appearing during all 4 hours of the show, researcher William Thomas talked about the hazardous health effects of cell phones and wireless devices, as well dangers associated with chemtrails and weather modification. People are being subjected to “electromagnetic smog” invisibly spread by wireless routers, portable phones, and other devices, he said. Just a two-minute conversation on a cell phone causes the blood-brain barrier to open, making one susceptible to neuron damage that might lead to Alzheimer’s, and “instant aging,” he warned. The kids of today who are using cell phones may be unable to mentally function by the time they are 30, he added. Bluetooth phone headsets are also hazardous, as they conduct electromagnetic energy into the ear, he noted. Portable phones inside the home can be worse than cell phones, as their base stations are broadcasting 24-7, producing more signals than cell phone towers, Thomas continued. Migraines, brain cancer, changes in personality, and aggressive behavior are all associated with exposure to cell phones and wireless devices, and children and pregnant women are particularly at risk, he reported. Just carrying a cell phone in your pocket that is turned on can cause soft tissue damage, said Thomas. Weather modification efforts have been on the rise in countries like China and the United States. According to Thomas, the US Air Force is engaged in “weather warfare,” using nanotech “smart particles” to modify, steer, and target the …
