    Denounced for crimes against humanity, good to know for this or that deadpool: https://pendect.com/categories/politics/american/brazil/jair-bolsonaro-is-denounced-in-the-hague-for-genocide-and-crimes-against-humanity

    Ah, my points for Kieran O'Connor are missing.

    They could put Norman Lloyd on there. But it would be a little contrived.

    Thoughts and Opinions on the 2020 List

    This year seems to mark the end of a generation for the List. The committee has to come up with something new next year.

    The 13th Death of 2020

    Well, going down the poll options, Bob Barker first caught my attention.

    Inverse Dead Pool 2020

    My buffer is used up. But if I count correctly, I'm still leading, tied with DI. Well, somewhere between RBG and Leon Spinks I will be getting an undesired differential "hit", I think. Edit: Its very crowded now in the 15-17 point range, with DI and me, The Quim Reaper, Newjack, drol, Joey, theoldcrem... the players at the top remain the same, but it's so much closer now.

    Oh I bet the committee waited for Bob Barker to die - so that Regis could take his place - now he never will.

    Fleetwood Mac

    Sad... While I like the Buckingham period very much, the Green Era was always on my list still to check out. Maybe now is a good time.

    Derby Dead Pool 2020

    Okay, so the 100pt barrier was broken wih David Hagen's death. I think we were faster before? On the other hand, we rarely had so many still contending teams at the top. My 7/8-point lead, for example, would still be overcome by Susan Bayh or Jana Bennett, the picks I am most afraid of dying (Joey would be ahead by 1, Rad would have the tiebreaker - me vs. DI...that would depend on the age tiebreaker). I still need another 10-pointer to get some comfortable distance - which is why Ady Barkan is now the most important person on my team. Although a Lee Kerslake / Tim Bilton combo would also be good for that - it's less likely though, and Tim Bilton looks like a dicey November/December death now.

    The Chequered Flag

    Sorry! The Italian sources are more detailed, I guess. I didn't research much in the past week and was still on last week's info, like here: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/formula1/53438302

    The Chequered Flag

    I think he hasn't become conscious again since being out of intensive care. The brain is probably fucked, and so the rest of the body as well.

    ALS/MND/other degenerative diseases

    Heh.. Usually my last-minute changes only make things worse. My hardest decision was putting Pete Felton on. Again, seemingly a mistake. Though my last decision this time, if I recall correctly, was the Sultan of Oman. I wonder if I would have picked John Lewis, if he had announced his illness a day earlier... Anyway, David Hagen's death, about 8 months after news of him being in hospice, is eerily similar to Fernando Ricksen's timeline. Spade asked how long Ricksen lasted in hospice... it was 8 months.

    Notable Coronavirus Victims

    Mel Gibson was hospitalized with it in April: https://www.theguardian.com/film/2020/jul/24/mel-gibson-hospitalised-coronavirus- Maybe that explains the slow reveal of Hutton Gibson's death.

    Prince Philip Duke Of Edinburgh

    Well, I think his final decline will be rapid. But first, we'd need to see some articles of the "hospitalised after a fall" category. He bounced back from all the previous health setbacks, so he's still got some resistance and strength.

    Melvin Theuma, Maltese crown witness in the murder case of journalist Daphne Caruana Galizia: https://www.bbc.com/news/world-europe-53497739 Remember, Caruana Galizia was a journalist who revealed the mafia structures of the Maltese state, including international tax evasion. Then she got killed. Now crown witness Theuma is hospitalized for a suicide attempt (or is it "suicide")?

    Last Rivonia trialist Andrew Mlangeni in hospital: https://www.timeslive.co.za/politics/2020-07-21-anc-veteran-andrew-mlangeni-95-in-hospital/ I guess there was a interesting poll option once, Civil Rights Big Six vs. Rivonia trialists.
