Had been coming for a while, but still so young to pass from such an affliction.

RIP David Cassidy
The Partridge Family was one of the TV shows I grew up with.

This one is a shock.

Didnt she become a naturalised Australian? EDIT: no she didnt, I might have had that confused with Hana Mandlikova.

Good riddance to bad rubbish and pure evil.

Anyone know why his death sentence was commuted to life?

The state of California changed the law that allowed putting prisoners to death.

Jana Novotna lbw.

Sad day. Our indoor cricket team, named the Partridge Famulee (paying homage to the Partridge Family) used to have a walk in/walk out song of the Family theme and "I Think I Love You". Anyone from the Masters games circa 2003-2006 will remember the Famulee rockin the courts to David's dulcet tones.

Bye Dave and thanks.

One for the nerds. The guy in the original Star Wars cantina scene who threateningly says to Luke "He doesn't like you...I don't like you either" (apparently the character's name is Dr Evazan, real name Alfie Curtis) has died aged 87.

Dolores O’Riordan, lead singer of Irish band The Cranberries, has died suddenly at the age of 46.

Wow, that is a shock and sad news indeed

One of the greatest voices I’ve heard.

The Cranberries were never my cup of tea, but yes, she had a marvellous set of pipes and they knew how to write a song. I wonder what the cause of death was, 46 is way too young - I'm guessing there's still nothing that's been confirmed in that department.
