Keshav Datt, death report. Also a Scavenger hunt selection. (Datt vs Dutt confusion, hence the seemingly duplicate of the above).

Actress Suzzanne Douglas, famous for playing Jerri Peterson on The WB comedy series The Parent 'Hood, died at 64 years: https://www.dailymail.co.uk/tvshowbiz/article-9763783/Suzzanne-Douglas-actress-best-known-Parent-Hood-passes-away-64.html She was also notable for her work in the films How Stella Got Her Groove Back and Jason's Lyric.

Dilip Kumar's death means that my G.I. generation has died off. Might be a first in this game, but only by hair's breadth. Dead Cow, for example, only has Clarissa Eden left.

Unbelievable

Dilip Kumar a hit for @Annami. Congratulations. https://ca.news.yahoo.com/dilip-kumar-bollywoods-great-tragedy-042058883.html next round: 1921 Wanda Półtawska / Charley Trippi 1922 Micheline Presle / Ronald Blythe 1923 Ida Vitale / Bob Barker 1924 Kirsi Kunnas / Leslie Phillips 1925 Phyllis Dalton / Michel Bouquet 1926 Irene Papas / Kees Rijvers 1927 Cleo Laine / Harry Belafonte 1928 Patricia Hitchcock / Charles Strouse 1929 Joan Plowright / Edward "Ed" Asner 1930 Frances Sternhagen / Jean-Louis Trintignant

The most eternal of eternals, immortal of immortals, lord of lords and the world's greatest death dodger Dilip Kumar himself appears to dead and for real this time. His family and his pulmonologist have confirmed it. I will still wait for more confirmations but I think this time it is real.

As one of life's great tortoises when it came to shuffling off, it seems only right to honour Dilip Kumar with his own update in the Hare's pool. Eight teams correctly predicted that the epic battle of Reaper Vs Kumar would finally be settled this year in favour of the one true Immortal.. Drol is rewarded for the outrageous gamble of jokering Kumar by hitting the top the leaderboard, with Quim Reaper continuing to rack up the hits in second place, and the ZZZ wisdom of the crowd team holding position in third. Others may also have croaked it since the last update, but they can wait for now - this one is all about the deadpool legend that was Dilip Kumar. RIP.

Edwin Edwards has entered hospice care, although he insists it's not because he's at death's door. https://www.wral.com/former-louisiana-gov-edwin-edwards-in-hospice-care/19759542/

American actor Ross Martin died on this day 40 years ago, aged 61.

On an ideological level, yes, two parents good, one parent not so good is correct, but realistically, one-size-fits-all is never going to work. It is selfish, but probably less selfish than some situations where a child has two parents but, for example, is chucked off to boarding school/given to the care of a nanny/au pair etc. at every opportunity.

For being Moto GP World Champion not Irish Road Race midfielder. Here's me 22 years ago in my "prime", never thought I'd be about this long!

Emilio Flores Márquez confirmed as the world’s oldest man living at 112 https://www.guinnessworldrecords.com/news/2021/6/emilio-flores-marquez-confirmed-as-the-worlds-oldest-man-living-at-112-665641

Apparently she is doing better, but would still like people to respect her privacy.

No. If you look at the link to that site I posted, there's a page for a chronological list of the oldest Brit. In many instances, the respective title holders did not receive coverage from the national press. Usually only local papers (or even just forum acknowledgements) are absolutely guaranteed. The UK-wide press will only cover it if there's something else to it e.g. Bob Weighton received a lot of coverage before his death and was the oldest man in the world at the time, so he got national headlines when he died. It generally depends on their prominence and/or how long they held the title. We all remember the Florrie Baldwins and Henry Allinghams. I can't for the life of me remember the majority of them though. Largely total non-entities. That maybe sounds harsh but it's true. --- Also, why would the man who specifically researches this for the Gerontology Research Group, and who talks to the respective care homes first hand, list a death on his site which he hadn't had confirmed?

BBC News is a strange name
