    Former Chief of Staff of Iran's Armed Forces from 1989 to 2016 and later advisor to the Supreme Leader, Hassan Firouzabadi has died aged 70. Known for this weird claim he made in 2018: "Several years ago, some individuals came to Iran... In their possessions were a variety of reptile desert species like lizards, chameleons... We found out that their skin attracts atomic waves and that they were nuclear spies who wanted to find out where inside the Islamic Republic of Iran we have uranium mines and where we are engaged in atomic activities" https://www.tehrantimes.com/news/464643/Hassan-Firouzabadi-former-Iran-s-armed-forces-chief-of-staff Apparently covid.

    Anni-Frid didn't look that great in some studio footage I saw in the news but looks much better in that picture. All four look great, especially considering that they have all had hard times: Anni-Frid: Mother died in 1947 when she was two years old, daughter died in 1998 in a car crash, widowed in 1999. Björn: Wife has had terminal cancer for 18 years. Agnetha: Mother committed suicide in 1994 and father died a year later, has had depression. Benny: Both parents died before he was 25 years old, former alcoholic.

    Had an interesting life though. Danhammer was born as Jouko Kalevi Juvonen in 1956/1957. He started his criminal career in the early 1980s with small crimes, for example forging checks. He pretended to be a Finnish-Canadian businessman and easily fooled people and for example lived in a hotel for months without paying anything, bought diamonds for debt and seduced and betrothed a local school teacher. After getting caught he disappeared and started a new life in Sweden. He changed his name to Carl J. Danhammer, claimed that he was adopted by a nobleman (not true). Started a company called Ren och Riv that employed over 20 people. After serving a prison sentence in Sweden he moved to Estonia, owned a restaurant and sang as "King Carl". He moved back to Finland in the late 90s/early 2000s and became the manager of Matti Nykänen with Petteri Jussila and likely scammed a ton of money from Nykänen. He was a right-wing populist candidate in a couple of elections until 2006 when he was removed from the lists after the party found out that he raped someone in Sweden in the 1980s. Scammed people until his death. Made a ton of money during his life but not enough to afford a new liver. He scammed Vesa Keskinen (known for owning Finland's largest department store that is also no. 3 on a Reuters 2005 list of ugliest buildings and monuments in the world) for 75,000 euros and an elderly person from Rovaniemi for 300,000 euros as an attempt to get enough money for a new liver to extend his life. In March 2020 he got a new liver and said that "he will live atleast another 25 years"... Also spent a lot of time in Ghana where he went trophy hunting. Had relations with the recently deceased Daasebre Oti Boateng (1938-2021) and, pictured, Ghana's former President John Kufuor (1938-) As well as other political elite in Ghana

    The Dead of 2021

    Couldn't find a fitting place for this even though there likely are many threads for what Zoopark has played: rock and roll, blues rock, rhythm and blues, garage rock, punk rock... Anyways, Zoopark's guitarist Aleksandr Khrabunov is dead: https://www.fontanka.ru/2021/09/01/70111790/ Zoopark was one of the founding groups of the Russian rock movement. The group was started in 1981 and lasted until 1991, when singer-songwriter and band leader Mile Naumenko died in his flat aged 36 from a cerebral hemorrhage caused by alcoholism and an accident. Atleast four members of the band are still living.
