    Hospitalised!

    Regarding Mitta, Russian media and Telegram channels are blowing things out of proportion as usual.

    Death, Italian Style

    Feltri looks like death warmed up and slurs all his words (which reminds me of Silvio's last videos) in his latest appearances. One for 2024 I guess.

    Hospitalised!

    @arghton may be an even better choice. Also I suggest it to be widely reported on Russian tabloids, that never fails to guarantee a full recovery within days.

    Law And Order

    Jiang Ping, most important Chinese legal scholar, dead at 92. Breaking news on all Chinese news sites. He succeeded Zou Yu as president of CUPL and was still holding a tour of conferences this year. Senior legal scholars in China include the aforementioned Zou Yu (1920) and former SC president Ren Jianxin (1925).

    Alexandra Pakhmutova discharged and "in excellent health". Of course, of course, better reserve the Kremlin for her 150th birthday, just to be sure.

    Nobel Prize In Death

    None of the elder Nobel Prize winners seems to be in failing health. I recently spoke with two elderly Chemistry winners (won't name them) and they still go to work ten hours a day. Also Martin Karplus is still directing his small group in Boston, he just seems unsinkable.

    Gangster, Gangster

    Would be the third Indian public enemy to be poisoned in recent months (I don't remember who the other two were), yet none of them died, so I'm quite doubtful about this.
