Here in the UK, the death of actor Ian Richardson was headlined in such ways as "House of Cards actor dead at 72".

On CNN, it was headlined 'Actor in "Grey Poupon" ad dead at 72'. (Ian Richardson appeared in ads for Grey Poupon Dijon mustard in the United States).

O tempora! O mores!

(Note that CNN did talk mostly about Richardson's Urquhart portrayal in House of Cards in the actual article--there is hope yet!)

"Judge: Preserve Anna Nicole's body"

I have two disturbing mental images. One is of a cabinet in which Anna Nicole, stuffed with straw, sits, a la Jeremy Bentham at University College London.

The other is of Mother Cabrini underneath the altar, enclosed in glass.

I shall lie awake nights worrying about this for a while.

And we won't even mention Lenin.

"New challenge for Thames swimmer". Must be about the Primates Meeting in Tanzania and the convert from Roman Catholicism who is now the Presiding Bishop of the Episcopal Church.
