Italian fashion designer (Wiki) Renato Balestra dead at age 98.

Louise Tobin is a hit for @WEP, @Ulitzer95, @Johnnas and @The Unknown Man CONGRATULATIONS!!!

Spent the past two days browsing the dark corners of the Internet for news on a potential unique of mine (who probably won't even QO), trying to figure out more info on their seemingly advanced cancer, only to find out that it was stage 3a and in remission. There's always room for Bob Barker...

I think you’ve entirely missed @TQR’s point… He wasn’t asking you for the first sentence description of who they are from their Wikipedia. These are not household names… anywhere.

Last night I was with some friends at a dance party (of the rainbow community) and they played her songs "Flashdance... What a feeling" twice and "Fame" once. Those were the right moments to remember Irene Cara and say goodbye to her. 80s legend

Loving how everyone has got up early to fight for Barry White’s fate!

Japan: 0 - Costa Rica: 0 Belgium: 2 - Morocco: 1 Croatia: 3 - Canada: 0 Spain: 1 - Germany: 1

Roberto Mancini, the exceptional Italian football player who started his successful professional career at Bologna and widely known for his time at Sampdoria, where he played over 550 matches, is 58 today. Roberto Mancini has reached a legendary status both as a player and as a coach. Patricia McPherson, American television actress who is particularly remembered for her performance of Bonnie Barstow, the qualified mechanic in charge of KITT's care, in the 1980s television series "Knight Rider" from 1982 to 1986, is 68 today. Patricia McPherson retired from acting in the early 90s, her last credited role was in the legal television series "Matlock" in 1991, was fired after the first season. She was convinced to come back for the third season as Bonnie Barstow, and would remain until the end of the popular show in 1986. Patricia McPherson is now part of an environmentalist group.

Biblio gets the final ruling, but as the round setter, eliminating such categories was exactly the intention of the 'competitive' criteria. Lifetime achievement, special award, outstanding contribution - stuff they just give you for being around a long time - are not valid. Got to be won against other nominees. And I'll take this opportunity to say I'm not sure I've ever watched the Brit Awards, I just wanted a music category!

Eeri Hyrkkö dead at 99. Would've been 100 on the 30th.

Doddie Weir is a record breaking 18th death for this year's Drop 40. Between possibilities of further deaths like Rolf, and names falling off like Maxwell, strong chance at least half of next year's Drop 40 are fresh faces.

Here's what I gather who could be the oldest players from each countries Mick Lane Ireland 3 October 1926 Courtney Meredith Wales 23 September 1926 Ken Smith Scotland 2 June 1931 Doug Baker England 29 November 1929 Pierre Danos France 4 June 1929

How would this apply to score composers and performers? For example, The Phantom of the Opera. A composer & two lyricists. Then you also have the cast. There is one name that everyone should have so probably won't matter.

Oh yeah, results are out of their hands. But, they still need to beat England to stay in the tournament no matter what. There are no results that keep them in the tournament without it now!

Interesting fact : in 1904, there was approximately 1 600 000 000 humans on earth and among them, only one survived, Lucille Randon. Wonder how many people born in 2022, there will be left in 2140 (if ever there is a year 2140)

At least they're real updates though, unlike Daily Fail click bait which just reports the same thing every week i.e. "oh look he's still alive".

Ah, one of my unique picks. I meditated for a good few minutes before deciding to select Bernadette Mayer, mainly over obit concerns...

Thanks for accepting the pick! Crossing my fingers for an exciting contest.
