Slipping endlessly through the crack between oral and respiratory medicine, the humble mouthwash has slowly won more respect among savvy practitioners and patients as a solution for a range of indications.1 In Japan many millions of people gargle three times a day with green tea extracts or other mouthwashes to ward off upper respiratory tract infections (URTIs), and Japanese clinical studies have confirmed the value of this approach (Furushima D et al. Molecules. 2018 Jul 20;23(7)). Worldwide, medical practitioners recommend gargling to patients. Many people on their own have decided that gargling makes sense, while millions swish with mouthwash to protect teeth and gums as well as to combat halitosis.
Still, for curious reasons, this formidable method of suppressing infections remains in medical limbo. Not because there is no need. The average American suffers 2.5 episodes of URTI per year, with high costs for treatment, lost days of work, and morbidity. URTIs also exacerbate asthma, and they can enter the lungs and prove fatal. As a generic adjuvant therapy, gargling can help reduce viral load during epidemics while remaining hard for mutating viruses to outflank.
April 4, 1968. Civil rights leader Martin Luther King was killed by a single bullet as he stood on the second floor balcony outside his hotel room in Memphis.
August 4, 1962. Celebrity actress Marilyn Monroe died in her bedroom in Los Angeles (or in the guest house near her house, from which she was carried back to her bedroom).
On April 27, 1996, 76-year old William Colby, former director of the CIA, disappeared from his vacation home on the water at Rocky Point, Maryland. Colby had spent the day at a marina fixing his sloop. He returned home after 6 pm, phoned his wife, who was visiting her mother in Texas, and told her he was tired and would eat supper, then go to bed. He watered his trees, met with his gardener and his visiting sister around 7:15 pm (sunset was at 7:57), and fixed himself a meal. The next day there was no sign of him. Eventually, a neighbor phoned the police. They found his supper half-eaten. The computer and radio were on. His canoe was missing.
Former Romanian intelligence chief Ion Mihai Pacepa’s Programmed to Kill. Lee Harvey Oswald, the Soviet KGB, and the Kennedy Assassination gives us a professional analysis of Oswald’s path to the murder of JFK. Here historian Kenneth J. Dillon and researcher Steven J. Dillon discuss the high points of the book and how its KGB rogue theory outperforms other theories of the assassination. But Pacepa was unaware of JFK’s lady friend Mary Meyer’s story and the Mafia role. See also https://www.scientiapress.com/john-f-kennedy.
. Just as the minimum age of 35 for becoming president reduces the risk of immaturity and inexperience, a maximum age of 75 would reduce the risk of the ravages of old age. It’s not a question of whether a given individual can outperform. It’s whether 
The Theory of the Reversing Earth was a key component of Immanuel Velikovsky’s Venus theory in which he contended that close passages of Venus caused Earth to topple over four times during the Bronze Age catastrophes. Now we have a Revised Venus Theory that corrects inadequacies of the original theory and provides a cause of the inversions as well as approximate dates (2200, 1628, 1210, and 820 BC), an array of new evidence, and a link to the great mass extinctions of prehistory.

In his Worlds in Collision (New York: Macmillan, 1950), Immanuel Velikovsky argued that Venus emerged as a red-hot comet from Jupiter and passed Earth every 52 years, causing the Bronze Age catastrophes, before settling into its current orbit. His claim set off a controversy in which his theory was rejected and stigmatized. But over the years, new findings have changed the picture. Here are eight new reasons to accept a Revised Venus Theory.
Worlds in Collision (1950) and Earth in Upheaval (1955) set forth the evidence and arguments for Immanuel Velikovsky’s pioneering, controversial theory that Venus emerged from Jupiter as a comet and repeatedly approached Earth, causing the Bronze Age catastrophes. Kenneth J. Dillon and Stephen J. Dillon discuss these books and the Scientific Rejectionism that stigmatized Velikovsky, thwarting a full, balanced assessment of his theories ever since.
