Sir Creep

Looks like. You're having a pretty good month Y-Dub

Like Hamburg, I will also be entering my 55th season this year. Unlike Hamburg, I am not being relegated (to my knowledge).

Forgot about him or just didn't roll with him? Regardless, yes I am. I think you're going to be ok to advance, though I haven't any regrets (i.e. last minute cuts who have died).

Former Philippine Senate president Edgardo Angara died on Sunday, May 13. He was 83. Angara's son, Senator Sonny Angara, confirmed his father's death. "Sad to say my father, former senator Edgardo Javier Angara, passed on from this life this morning at the age of 83, from an apparent heart attack," said the younger Angara in a post on Twitter. SC

Former Wales and British & Irish Lions rugby player Gareth Williams has died aged 63 after a battle with a rare nervous system disorder. The death of Williams, who had been suffering with multiple system atrophy since 2012, was confirmed by his former club Bridgend Ravens. Williams won five Wales caps between 1980 and 1982 and appeared on the Lions tour to South Africa in 1980. SC

Billy Brewer, who played at Ole Miss in the late 1950s and coached the Rebels for 11 seasons, died at the age of 83 Saturday following a brief illness (A STROKE IS A BRIEF ILLNESS?). Brewer coached Ole Miss from 1983 to 1993 and went 67-56-3 in those 11 seasons, which included three bowl victories and two top-25 finishes. He was the second-winningest coach in program history. Brewer will be inducted into the Mississippi Sports Hall of Fame later this year. Health became a concern when Brewer suffered a stroke and was checked into Baptist Memorial Hospital in Oxford in February. Also -- another 'winningest' reference. Gotta love it. SC

There is another one coming out about her remaining life; it's a very mini-series.

I hate piling on, but how does one NOT pick McCain this time around? Johnny-on-the-spot SC

Don’t forget Nuon Chea has lived in a Cambodian jail for a year enduring a trial that will put him away for years, I think he’s 89.

Not this cunto. The original link didn't sound the 30-day alarms for me. Alas. After seeing this I feel slightly vindicated ("His health had steadily deteriorated over the past few days, and earlier today he was put on life support after his lungs and heart ailment worsened. ")

I thought it slightly more recent his going through the front doors, but it could be a 'retirement' facility ala Cardinal Etchegaray, though they've made a point to say 'hospice' which is never the case with the good Cardinal. SC

Think I mentioned it before, but the absolute Golden Era of DL singing up was the 6 weeks from December 2014 to mid January 2015. In that time frame we had Sir Creep (12-2-14), BuriedInCarolina (1-6-15), Gossip Gabe (1-8-15), Phantom (of the Midway) (1-9-15) and YoungWillz (1-16-15) all create accounts. [Hell, I feel like an outlier lol] I was going to say 'excluding the original few months' the website was created, but I'm happy to put those 6 weeks up against any 12 week span, frankly. Those five profiles have accounted for 19,000 posts. SC

Guitarist for Babymetal, Yui Mizuno (aka Yuimetal) missed a few shows in December due to 'illness' and is again missing the current leg of the band's tour of the States. People seemed to be more concerned with whether Yui is going to continue as a member of the band rather than as a member of the living for years to come. Anyway, passing the info on. SC (Edit: I mean one of the vocalists, not guitarist. Got caught up with the previous post I reckon).

Former Marshall University President Robert B. Hayes has died in West Virginia. He was 92. Klingel-Carpenter Mortuary confirmed that Hayes died Friday in Huntington. Hayes was Marshall's 11th president, serving from 1974 to 1983. SC

I think she tests the boundaries of QO obitability. Interested to see how it goes. Can't wait to say 'Barys Kit is no Melinda Whale'.

I mean cmon.... thanks for the update. I’ll start following Video Game Nerds thread for all my deadpooling rules amendments.

Kevin Kamenetz, a Democratic candidate for governor of Maryland and Baltimore County Executive who was a fixture in state politics for nearly 25 years, has died. Kamenetz died early Thursday, following a cardiac arrest, Baltimore County police said in a news release. He was 60.

Peter Mayer, a leading mainstream and independent publisher of the past half century who acquired such million-selling books as "Up the Down Staircase" and "Jonathan Livingston Seagull" and was known for his innovative and volatile style, died Friday at age 82. Mayer's daughter, Liese Mayer, told The Associated Press that he died at his Manhattan home of complications related to amyloidosis. SC

How are you privy to next year’s DDP rule changes

Your first May 12 headline! Senior IPS officer Himanshu Roy (54), a former head of the Maharashtra Anti-Terrorism Squad (ATS) and Mumbai crime branch shot himself with his personal licensed revolver at his south Mumbai residence on Friday. Roy, who was afflicted with bone-marrow cancer and had been on medical leave for two years, shot himself in his mouth around 1 pm. He was immediately rushed to Bombay Hospital where he was declared dead on arrival at 1.47 pm. SC

Headline says a Dubliner was found with 'almost' 6,000 child porn images on his computer. Who's job was it to count?

From yesterday's NYTimes Robert N. Hall’s legacy can be found at almost every checkout counter — that little red blinking laser scanner that reads bar codes on milk cartons, boxes of light bulbs, price tags dangling from a new jacket and just about everything else that can be bought in a store. A product of his inventive labor can also be found in most kitchens nowadays: the microwave oven. Yet for all the widespread familiarity of what Dr. Hall wrought as a remarkably ingenious physicist, his death, at 96, on Nov. 7, 2016, gained little notice. An announcement paid for by his family appeared in two upstate New York newspapers — The Times Union of Albany and The Daily Gazette of Schenectady — and General Electric, in a company publication, published a remembrance a month later. But otherwise the news of Dr. Hall’s death did not travel very far. SC

He has been given a task; once complete he will have earned that title ad infinitum.
