Florida homeowners fined for "Starry Night" murals on house
MOUNT DORA, Fla. - Two Florida homeowners owe thousands of dollars in fines for painting murals emulating a Vincent van Gogh masterpiece on the exterior of their home. A report by WKMG-TV shows the Mount Dora home covered in blue and yellow paint swirled on the house and a perimeter wall in the style of van Gogh's painting "The Starry Night." Homeowners Nancy Nemhauser and Ludomir Jastrzebski were fined $100 per day, but the fines were capped at 31 days. The news station reports that a magistrate lifted the cap, which means the homeowners now owe over $8,000. The fines will continue until the murals are removed. - AP

The concern with this type of radiation is that it produces energy in the form of heat, and frequent exposure against the skin could alter brain cell activity, as some studies have suggested.
High levels of cellphone radiation linked to tumors in male rats
Washington — Male rats exposed to very high levels of the kind of radiation emitted by cellphones developed tumors in the tissues around their hearts, according to a draft report by US government researchers on the potential health risks of the devices.Female rats and mice exposed in the same way did not develop tumors, according to the preliminary report from the US National Toxicology Program (NTP), a part of the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences.The findings add to years of research meant to help settle the debate over whether cellphone radiation is harmful.Although intriguing, the findings can not be extrapolated to humans, NTP scientists and the US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) said on Friday.
