    Two members of the House of Lords had their memberships renounced yesterday due to non-attendance i.e. they failed to show up for at least one sitting in the last parliamentary term. They were: Lord Amir Bhatia OBE (wiki), 91, businessman and former Crossbench peer (later a non-affiliated member) – was suspended for 8 months in 2010 due to dodgy expenses, also had a separate scandal involving "misappropriating" £600,000 from a charity. Lord Robert Dixon-Smith (wiki), 89, farmer and former Conservative chairman of Essex County Council, forced to apologise in 2008 after saying "N-word in a woodpile" during a debate (not the last time a member of either house has used this idiom). Anyway, members normally do whatever they can to hold onto their membership. They can take a leave of absence or merely show up to single sitting. Getting kicked out usually means they're very ill. Both of the above names will get QOs so decent DDP suggestions.

    Advent Avalanche Form Guide #8 Jayapataka Swami His Holiness Jayapataka Swami is the highest-ranking leader of controversial Hindu religious organization ISKCON. Born Gordon John Erdman II into an upper-class family in Milwaukee in 1949, he joined newly-founded ISKCON in the late 1960s around the same time George Harrison started funding the growing organization. Jayapataka, quite soon after joining, became one of the highest Swamis. The founding guru died in 1977, leaving Jayapataka and other still very young gurus to lead ISKCON. Some of them died, others were kicked out leading to Jayapataka becoming the "guru in charge" of ISKCON. In October 2008 he suffered a massive brain stem stroke, putting him into coma and "very critical" conditions for weeks or months. Since then his health has been quite bad, or as ISKCON says, "compromised": Already before his stroke he had cirrhosis (apparent complication from a blood transfusion in 1989 following an attack on a Madrid airport) finally leading to liver & kidney failure some years later. Skipping the waitlist he got new kidneys and a new liver in 2018 but as usual that didn't help much. He's been hospitalised a number of times since with heart problems, kidney problems, pneumonia, leg infections, covid, blood clots, skin cancer, UTIs, an "extended spectrum multi-resistant bacteria", pulmonary edema, ascites, skin lesions, trachea compression and other ailments, while he's survived his previous illnesses very well, this year he seems to have had more ailments than in the past ten combined. He's been in hospital twice within the last month and dedicated, educated ambulance chasers/corpse hounds know that pulmonary edema tends to return, and while he's a Swami, he's only half-Indian. He also looks like what I'd imagine the drowned ocean corpse version of Chef Tony would look like.

    Advent Avalanche Form Guide #3 There are 295 people current listed on Wikipedia's list of notable living centenarians, and random.org picked #28 who is.... Sir Lloyd Geering A New Zealand theologian who faced charges of heresy in 1967 for declaring that Christ wasn't resurrected from the dead and his remains laid undisturbed somewhere in modern-day Palestine. Well they won't still be undisturbed after the last few weeks, Lloydy-boy.

    I think whatever happens in the next election for the USA: there will be a revolt. That country is so divided.

    I watched the 1980 Italian found footage movie Cannibal Holocaust the other night. Well made movie that probably paved the way for the Blair Witch etc, but a very rough watch due to sexual violence and very realistic looking gore effects.

    I was just thinking of the score at the end of next year. There is four on there and a hit is a hit. Not every post has to be one of those above listed. if it did I would assume no one would be conversing. I don’t know them either.

    He's still generally pretty active and involved in the motorsport world and appeared on a podcast interview with Justin Bell (ex racer and Derek Bell's son) last year. Seemed very well and was very sharp through the interview. Also posts quite often on his Twitter and the account is fully operated by him, so I'm assuming there's nothing major going on. Anyway I don't think he needs to be considered in 2024. In fact I can't think of any Formula 1 drivers right now at the moment that come off as immediate DL potential, the ones who were in the last 1-2 years have already passed away (Brooks, McAlpine, Reutemann, Jabouille, Tambay etc.).

    One of them was with Heath Ledger when he OD'd. Also they were bored,rich,anorexic drug addicts in the mid and late aughts and it looked like they would be following in Ledger/Winehouse's path. They seem to have turned their problems around or at least are far enough out of the limelight to fake the apperance of that who knows.

    Let's see if this qualifies as relevant for the topic.... Heard on the radio that the son of some Eastender actress has just died. Never seen an episode of Eastenders myself, but I think I recognised the name as a Deathlist candidate. This son had appearantly been ill for a long time, so his death was no real suprise.... Maybe Deathlist has a policy to only have one entrance per family?
