    From https://jimhumble.co/special-announcement/:




    Special Announcement

    September 5, 2023 @12am ET

    It is with deep emotions that we announce the passing of Jim Humble, a remarkable inventor, author and humanitarian, who passed on peacefully on September 1, 2023 at the age of 90.

    Jim Humble was born on December 27, 1932 in the US State of Alabama. He led an interesting life that was full of challenges and contributions to mankind that continue to impact millions around the world. He lived a very humble life that matches his name—he was always ready to give to those in need.

    In his early years he was involved in engineering which he carried through to his mid-life as an expert in mining. His creative mind led to various inventions and books on the topic. In 1996, his mining career took an unexpected turn toward the world of health when a team of men working on his expedition came down with malaria. All he had with him at the time were some water treatment drops that he offered to the sick men. To everyone’s surprise, they quickly improved after taking a few drops.

    This experience inspired Jim to research how one of the world’s greatest plagues could so easily be stopped. He discovered that the water treatment drops he used in the jungle was sodium chlorite and that when taken internally in very small amounts would convert to just enough chlorine dioxide to kill malaria parasites. During the months that followed, in his travels through the jungle, he helped many others recover from malaria and other illnesses. When Jim himself came down with a bad case of malaria, he went into the city to be tested, wanting to document the fact that he indeed had malaria. Sure enough he was malaria positive and he promptly took his own drops. In a few short hours, after feeling much better, he took a second test which read malaria negative. Jim walked out of the clinic, stood on the sidewalk, and said to himself, “I’ve got to take this to the world.” And so, his greatest journey began.

    He nicknamed his discovery MMS (chlorine dioxide) and wrote numerous books on the subject that have been translated into many languages.

    Jim Humble’s legacy is that he had the will and the determination to freely give his discovery to the world, and as a result, millions of lives have been changed. Through his efforts many health uses of chlorine dioxide have been brought to light worldwide.

    Jim was deeply burdened with the current plight of mankind and the blatant manifestation of evil in the world. He was a firm believer in the spiritual realm, and acknowledged that there were powers that must be defeated. He has now transitioned to the other side, to join in the fight for freedom from a new vantage point.

    Jim’s wish and wise counsel for others through the years has always been:
    • Take your maintenance dose of chlorine dioxide (MMS) daily.
    • Do some daily jumps to strengthen your bones.
    • Always do the right thing.
    • And, help one another.
    Before his passing, he was insistent that we must “Be careful!”. He said, “Be careful, because if you aren’t you might screw up. Be careful about what’s happening around you. You gotta be careful both physically and spiritually, so you’ll be ok. Like soldiers we have to always be on watch.”

    We are not saying goodbye to our dear Jim, because we know that he lives on—there are no “Goodbye’s…” Only, “’Til we meet again…” In recent years his closing words in interviews were most often, “Get my book, read it, learn about MMS (chlorine dioxide), tell your friends, tell other people, and use MMS (chlorine dioxide) for maintenance.”

    If you wish to pay tribute to his great man… join us in endeavoring to do as he taught and lived—spread the word about Jim’s incredible discovery—it may save lives!

    Respectful public comments can be left below where you can share your experiences, thoughts, and feelings about Jim and his life’s work:

    Actor David McCallum has died at age 90. He's best known for being in NCIS and The Man from U.N.C.L.E. He has 131 works listed on imdb.

    msn
    Quote LOS ANGELES (AP) — Actor David McCallum, who became a teen heartthrob in the hit series "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." in the 1960s and was the eccentric medical examiner in the popular "NCIS" 40 years later, has died. He was 90.

    McCallum died Monday of natural causes surrounded by family at New York Presbyterian Hospital, CBS said in a statement.

    “David was a gifted actor and author, and beloved by many around the world. He led an incredible life, and his legacy will forever live on through his family and the countless hours on film and television that will never go away,” said a statement from CBS.

    Scottish-born McCallum had been doing well appearing in such films "A Night to Remember" (about the Titanic), "The Great Escape" and "The Greatest Story Ever Told" (as Judas). But it was "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." that made the blond actor with the Beatlesque haircut a household name in the mid-'60s.

    The success of the James Bond books and films had set off a chain reaction, with secret agents proliferating on both large and small screens. Indeed, Bond creator Ian Fleming contributed some ideas as "The Man From U.N.C.L.E." was being developed, according to Jon Heitland's “The Man From U.N.C.L.E. Book.”

    Terry Kirkman, the Association singer and founding member, dies at 83

    Singer-songwriter Terry Kirkman, a founding member of the 1960s folk-rock band the Association, has died. He was 83.

    Kirkman’s death was confirmed on Sunday through a statement on the Association’s official Facebook page: “We’re saddened to report that Terry Kirkman passed away last night, RIP Terry. He will live on in our hearts and in the music he so brilliantly wrote.”

    The group consisted of a large ensemble of vocalists and instrumentalists known for their intricate vocal harmonies.

    The Association released their debut album “And Then… Along Comes the Association” in 1966, featuring such hits as “Cherish” and “Along Comes Mary.” Other albums include “Renaissance,” “Insight Out,” “Birthday” and “Stop Your Motor.”

    Kirkman wrote a number of songs for the Association, including “Cherish,” Everything That Touches You,” “Requiem for the Masses” and “Six Man Band.” The band was nominated for six Grammy Awards, including three for “Cherish”: contemporary rock and roll group performance, performance by a vocal group and contemporary rock and roll recording.

    Longest-serving female US senator dies at 90
    Dianne Feinstein was considered a trailblazer of women’s political issues
    https://www.rt.com/news/583771-us-oldest-senator-dies/



    Dianne Feinstein, whose three decades in the US Senate made her the longest-serving female senator in history, has died at the age of 90, it has been confirmed by a family member.

    Initial reports have not yet indicated the cause of death.

    Feinstein, who had for several months faced questions about the state of her health, was the oldest member of the US Senate and had last taken part in a vote as recently as Thursday.

    In April, the former San Francisco mayor was admitted to the hospital after experiencing what was referred to as a “minor fall” in her home.

    Feinstein had indicated her intention to retire at the end of next year but resisted calls from fellow lawmakers to step down amid growing concerns about her ability to perform her role.

    Following the announcement of her planned retirement next year, US President Joe Biden called Feinstein a “passionate defender of civil liberties” and commended her for her “strong voice for national security policies that keep us safe while honoring our values.”

    Feinstein’s death will give California Governor Gavin Newsom an opportunity to appoint a replacement to serve the remainder of Feinstein’s term. In March of 2021, Newsom said that he had identified “multiple” potential replacements and suggested that he intended to appoint a black woman to the role.

    The 90-year-old had been absent from the US Capitol for almost three months earlier this year following a diagnosis of shingles. Feinstein assumed a lighter work role upon her return to the legislature and was frequently seen using a wheelchair in Washington. The elderly Feinstein was often accused of displaying confusion during interviews and in committee hearings or votes in the latter part of her political career.

    A report published by the San Francisco Chronicle in April 2022 contained comments from anonymous Democratic colleagues who expressed concerns about Feinstein’s mental acuity. In response, Feinstein said that her ability to govern remained strong but acknowledged that she was experiencing an “extremely painful and distracting period” as her husband, the late financier Richard Blum, fought cancer.

    Here's a Wikipedia list of the longest serving US senators. There's a disproportionate number of Democrats as if signifying a blood line. Joe Biden is on the list with 36 years.

    à bientôt


    We are deeply sad to announce that a core member of the Sott.net and Cassiopaea.org team, Pierre Lescaudron, has passed from this life, leaving us, and all of you who knew and loved him, feeling a profound loss.

    From the day he joined our team some 14 years ago and literally up until the day he chose to pass, Pierre was a charming, positive, dedicated and insightful contributor to our work, both online and in the real world, where he served as a skilled mentor to many.

    Pierre reserved his greatest enthusiasm and effort for his attempts to better understand the fundamental nature of our reality, the hidden history of our planet and what essential part we, as human beings, play in the 'grand scheme' of things.

    While Pierre's list of achievements are too many to detail in full here, the following provides a sample of his work and commitment.

    Bonne route Pierre, et à bientôt!

    Bobby Charlton was the hero of my childhood - especially since my dad went to the same school (Bedlington Grammar) and was born and raised in the village next-door to Ashington - and we were convinced (and told people) that he was a not-too-distant relative - because of having the same surname and a close family resemblance.

    Sadly, I much later had my family tree traced back to 1750 - and the last claim turned out to be untrue!

    Philosopher and author. Highly intelligent and eloquent man. He is now said to have been a 'light in the darkness' during the covid 'pandemic'. He even wrote a book about the Covidian cultists called "The Cult". He'll be missed.

    When I was ever anywhere near a television during the period 'Friends' ran (1994 through 2004) - not a lot at all! - when I was I'd sometimes check in on this show, and the Chandler character was my favourite.

    Damn man, he's my age, 54 That feels so young still.

    Here's a paragraph that I've just seen in The Guardian obituary for Matthew, and this for which he should be posthumously garlanded

    ***
    He grew up mainly in Ottawa when his mother returned to her home country and eventually became press secretary to the then prime minister, Pierre Trudeau. In 2017, Perry revealed that he and another pupil at Rockcliffe Park elementary school had beaten up Justin Trudeau, Pierre’s son and current Canadian premier. Trudeau responded on Twitter (now X): “I’ve been giving it some thought, and you know what, who hasn’t wanted to punch Chandler? How about a rematch @MatthewPerry?”
    “If a man does not keep pace with [fall into line with] his companions, perhaps it is because he hears a different drummer. Let him step to the music which he hears, however measured or far away.” - Thoreau

    wrt Matthew Perry - Talented but relentlessly self-destructive; yet another victim (I guess) of the (nearly-always) corrupting effects of life as a child actor/ star.

    That's a negative.
    He was a very vocal pro vaxer for the covid variety.
    All initial reports said he died from a heart attack.
    They then changed that to died in a hot tub and you fill in the answers.
