Lucy Gordon dead of an apparent suicide. The 28 year old actress was in Spider-Man 3.
One article says “We are not seeking anyone else. It was a clear case of suicide.” and another says “Police initially described her death as suicide but The Sun reports it is now under investigation and the star’s boyfriend is currently being questioned.” Will be interesting to see how this one pans out.

Millvina Dean, the last survivor of the ill-fated voyage of the Titanic, has died at the age of 97. She was only nine weeks old when the ship sank on April 15, 1912.
Dr. George Tiller, of Wichita, Kansas, has been shot and killed.
There’s a thread going in the BBQ Pit about his death.
A nice deathpool-related story:
Man with advanced mesothilioma wins $10,000 on a $200 bet at 50-1 odds that he would survive a year.
He also placed another $200 bet that he would survive until June 2010, this one at 100-1 odds.
On the anniversary of the Titanic’s launch, no less.
