Christian Brando fills out the Entertainment Three (son of Marlon Brando, so it counts!). LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- Christian Brando, the troubled eldest son of the late famed actor Marlon Brando, has died from pneumonia at a Los Angeles hospital, an attorney said Saturday. He was 49. http://i.l.cnn.net/cnn/2008/SHOWBIZ/Movies/01/26/obit.christian.brando.ap/art.brando.ap.JPGChristian Brando was the eldest son of Hollywood legend Marlon Brando. http://www.cnn.com/.element/img/2.0/mosaic/base_skins/baseplate/corner_wire_BL.gif Brando died Saturday morning at Hollywood Presbyterian Medical Center, said David Seeley, an attorney representing Marlon Brando's estate. Seeley said Brando was taken to the hospital on January 11. There are no funeral plans yet scheduled, he added. "This is a sad and difficult time for the family," Seeley said. Born May 11, 1958, the younger Brando (http://topics.cnn.com/topics/christian_brando) had small roles in a handful of movies, including 1968's "I Love You, Alice B. Toklas!" but he was better known for his brushes with the law. He spent five years in prison after pleading guilty to manslaughter in 1990 for killing his sister's boyfriend, Dag Drollet, at the Brando family's estate. Brando said he accidentally shot Drollet as they struggled for a gun during an argument over whether Drollet, 26, had beaten Brando's pregnant half-sister, Cheyenne. Cheyenne, who later gave birth to Drollet's son, committed suicide in 1995 after losing custody. She was 25. Brando's ex-wife, Deborah Brando, sued him for domestic violence in 2005. She claimed that shortly after their 2004 marriage, Brando repeatedly beat her and threatened to kill her in the presence of her teenage daughter. Brando countersued, alleging that his ex-wife broke into his home and beat him because he wanted to annul their marriage only 10 weeks after exchanging vows. The lawsuits were settled last year on undisclosed terms. Brando was charged January 10, 2005, with two counts of spousal abuse and he pleaded guilty. He was placed on three years' probation and ordered to drug and alcohol rehabilitation as well as a spousal-abuse prevention program. Brando also was the one-time lover of Bonnie Lee Bakley (http://topics.cnn.com/topics/bonnie_lee_bakley), who was shot to death in 2001. At one time, Bakley claimed Brando had fathered her child but tests showed it belonged to actor Robert Blake, whom she later married. Blake was tried for her murder and acquitted but later ordered to pay $30 million in a wrongful death lawsuit. During that civil case, Blake's lawyer suggested Brando was the killer. Brando, who had denied any involvement, invoked his Fifth Amendment right against self-incrimination on the stand during the trial. Seeley said Brando was not married at the time of his death and did not leave any children. DrRay11 01-26-2008, 07:24 PM That's a bit of a stretch.

He was 68. Smith died in a Tucson hospital, the University of Arizona confirmed. His 24-year head-coaching career began at Tulane, included seven years at Arizona and ended in 2000 at Missouri. Smith was 143-126-7 and his teams were 3-6-1 in bowl games. Smith coached USC for six years, finishing 44-25-3. He was fired on New Year's Day of 1993, his departure hastened by a 24-7 loss to unranked Fresno State in the Freedom Bowl. Smith started his tenure at USC in 1987 and took the Trojans the Rose Bowl in each of his first three seasons. The Trojans lost their first two Rose Bowls under Smith, before beating Michigan and his mentor, Bo Schembechler, in Schembechler's final game as the Wolverines' coach, after the 1989 season. Smith worked under Schembechler for six years at Miami of Ohio and Michigan Timone 02-11-2008, 11:19 AM Roy Scheider, Actor in ‘Jaws,’ Dies at 75 * Sign In to E-Mail or Save This * Share o Del.icio.us o Digg o Facebook o Newsvine o Permalink By DAVE KEHR Published: February 11, 2008 Roy Scheider, a stage actor with a background in the classics who became one of the leading figures in the American film renaissance of the 1970s, died on Sunday afternoon in Little Rock, Ark. He was 75 and lived in Sag Harbor, N.Y. Mr. Scheider had suffered from multiple myeloma for several years, and died of complications from a staph infection, his wife, Brenda Seimer, said. Mr. Scheider’s rangy figure, gaunt face and emotional openness made him particularly appealing in everyman roles, most famously as the agonized police chief of “Jaws,” Steven Spielberg’s 1975 breakthrough hit, about a New England resort town haunted by the knowledge that a killer shark is preying on the local beaches. Mr. Scheider conveyed an accelerated metabolism in movies like “Klute” (1971), his first major film role, in which he played a threatening pimp to Jane Fonda’s New York call girl; and in William Friedkin’s “French Connection” (also 1971), as Buddy Russo, the slightly more restrained partner to Gene Hackman’s marauding police detective, Popeye Doyle. That role earned Mr. Scheider the first of two Oscar nominations. Born in 1932 in Orange, N.J., Mr. Scheider earned his distinctive broken nose in the New Jersey Diamond Gloves Competition. He studied at Rutgers and at Franklin and Marshall College in Lancaster, Pa., where he graduated as a history major with the intention of going to law school. He served three years in the United States Air Force, rising to the rank of first lieutenant. When he was discharged, he returned to Franklin and Marshall to star in a production of “Richard III.” His professional debut was as Mercutio in a 1961 New York Shakespeare Festival production of “Romeo and Juliet.” While continuing to work onstage, he made his movie debut in “The Curse of the Living Corpse” (1964), a low-budget horror film by the prolific schlockmeister Del Tenney. “He had to bend his knees to die into a moat full of quicksand up in Connecticut,” recalled Ms. Seimer, a documentary filmmaker. “He loved to demonstrate that.” In 1977 Mr. Scheider worked with Mr. Friedkin again in “Sorcerer,” a big-budget remake of Henri-Georges Clouzot’s 1953 French thriller, “The Wages of Fear,” about transporting a dangerous load of nitroglycerine in South America. Offered a leading role in “The Deer Hunter” (1979), Mr. Scheider had to turn it down in order to fulfill his contract with Universal for a sequel to “Jaws.” (The part went to Robert De Niro.) “Jaws 2” failed to recapture the appeal of the first film, but Mr. Scheider bounced back, accepting the principal role in Bob Fosse’s autobiographical phantasmagoria of 1979, “All That Jazz.” Equipped with Mr. Fosse’s Mephistophelean beard and manic drive, Mr. Scheider’s character, Joe Gideon, gobbled amphetamines in an attempt to stage a new Broadway show while completing the editing of a film (and pursuing a parade of alluring young women) — a monumental act of self-abuse that leads to open-heart surgery. This won Mr. Scheider an Academy Award nomination in the best actor category. (Dustin Hoffman won that year, for “Kramer vs. Kramer.”) In 1980, Mr. Scheider returned to his first love, the stage, where his performance in a production of Harold Pinter’s “Betrayal” opposite Blythe Danner and Raul Julia earned him the Drama League of New York award for distinguished performance. Although he continued to be active in films, notably in Robert Benton’s “Still of the Night” (1982) and John Badham’s action spectacular “Blue Thunder” (1983), he moved from leading men to character roles, including an American spy in Fred Schepisi’s “Russia House” (1990) and a calculating Mafia don in “Romeo Is Bleeding” (1993). One of the most memorable performances of his late career was as the sinister, wisecracking Dr. Benway in David Cronenberg’s adaptation of William S. Burroughs’s “Naked Lunch” (1991). Living in Sag Harbor, Mr. Scheider continued to appear in films and lend his voice to documentaries, becoming, Ms. Seimer said, increasingly politically active. With the poet Kathy Engle, he helped to found the Hayground School in Bridgehampton, dedicated to creating an innovative, culturally diverse learning environment for local children. At the time of his death, Mr. Scheider was involved in a project to build a film studio in Florence, Italy, for a series about the history of the Renaissance. Besides his wife, his survivors include three children, Christian Verrier Scheider and Molly Mae Scheider, with Ms. Seimer, and Maximillia Connelly Lord, from an earlier marriage, to Cynthia Bebout; a brother, Glenn Scheider of Summit, N.J.; and two grandchildren.

Tom Lantos was a Hungarian who escaped twice from concentration camps during the era of German belligerence. He had always been a firm supporter of the Jewish community and human rights.

Stubbs, who had been ill recently, died at his home in Detroit, Michigan. Stubbs was known for his deep, soulful voice, and for helping to create some of the top hits among the so-called "Motown" groups of the 1960s. The Four Tops were made famous by such classic songs as "Reach Out", "I Can't Help Myself", and "Standing in the Shadows of Love." The Four Tops formed in the early in 1950s while all the members were in high school. They went on to sell millions of records, performing for four decades with the same members. But with Stubbs' death, only one of the original Four Tops, Abdul "Duke" Fakir, is still living. Some information for this report was provided by AP. http://www.voanews.com/english/2008-10-17-voa73.cfm Big Swami 10-19-2008, 12:09 AM Levi Stubbs. http://www.voanews.com/english/2008-10-17-voa73.cfm Was just going to come in here and post that. Very sad day for people who like good music. All those old Motown singers got set up with a "role." They worked a personality angle that offset them from the other Motown stars. Smokey Robinson was the Pretty Boy, Marvin Gaye was the Respectable Church Boy, Stevie Wonder was the Precocious Kid, David Ruffin was the Ladies' Man. But Levi Stubbs was just Levi Stubbs. He was hood as fuck. He was dark-skinned, he sang with a rough, deep voice, and the Four Tops had probably the funkiest tracks in Motown, leveraging the awesome Funk Brothers rhythm section on most of their tracks. The first time you hear "Reach Out" you dig the beat. But the more you listen to it, it starts to sound like a symphony. And when you see it performed, with the synchronized moves, it's awesome. The world has lost a great performer and a huge piece of the Motown story. PC4DKNfR0b4 DE 10-19-2008, 12:16 AM Great post Swami. Reach Out is one of my all-time favorite songs, Motown or otherwise.

Habib Miyan, who died Monday, claimed to be 138 years old and was listed as the country's oldest man in India's Limca Book of Records. But without a birth certificate giving formal proof of his age, Habib Miyan, who played clarinet in a maharaja's band before retiring 70 years ago, could not prove his longevity. However, his pension book showed his birth date as May 20, 1879 — which would make him 129. The oldest living person according to the Guinness World Records is 115-year-old Edna Parker, who lives in an Indiana nursing home. Japanese woman Yone Minagawa died last year at 114. Thousands of people thronged Habib Miyan's funeral on Tuesday in Jaipur, 340km from Jodhpur, following a bout of fever and dysentery, his niece Munni told AFP. "If you treat your body well, the body will treat you well," Habib Miyan would tell anyone who asked him the secret of his long life, another relative Mehmood Khan, told the Calcutta Telegraph. Habib Miyan made international headlines in 2004 when he fulfilled a long-cherished ambition of visiting the Muslim holy city of Mecca, becoming one of the oldest people to complete the pilgrimage. Habib Miyan, whose wife died around 70 years ago, lived in a Muslim quarter of Jaipur, a popular tourist hub in the western state of Rajasthan. He retired in 1938 from the court of then Jaipur king, Raja Man Singh, where he played clarinet in the royal orchestra. He had been blind for more than half a century and his mobility was limited in recent years but he underwent hip replacement surgery last year, according to media reports. He spent most of his time in his house, praying and telling stories to his vast extended family of 140 people. On Monday, Habib Miyan called Rajesh Nagpal, a bank clerk who had made public his longevity, over to the house where generations of his family had lived and told him: "I am going to go now," the Telegraph reported. He died soon after. Nagpal was working in a bank in Jaipur in 1998 when he noticed the old man who would come to collect his pension and dug out his records. The chance discovery changed Habib Miyan's life and the media started flocking to his doorstep to hear his memories. Tahoe 03-13-2009, 10:17 PM This is good news.

He was 81. Mr. Bernardin, a native of Lawrence, Mass., went to work at McDonald's corporate headquarters in 1960 and quickly rose to dean of Hamburger University, McDonald's training center. Later, as vice president of product development, he played a major role in the formation of McDonald's signature fish sandwich, french fries, and hot apple and cherry pies. But Mr. Bernardin's claim to fame came in 1971, when, as a franchise owner in Fremont, he introduced the Quarter Pounder, with the prophetic slogan, "Today Fremont, tomorrow the world." "I felt there was a void in our menu vis-a-vis the adult who wanted a higher ratio of meat to bun," he said in 1991. Mark Bernardin said his father's other important contribution to fast-food fare is the frozen french fry. Mr. Bernardin moved to Fremont in 1970 after buying two company-owned franchises. At his height, he owned nine franchises and became a philanthropist.
