She sang the first version of 'Send in the Clowns', which was written for her by Stephen Sondheim for a Broadway play in 1973.
Every probably knows Sinatra's version a couple of years later in 1975.
Der Kaiser - Franz Beckenbauer, one of the greats of the world game 
One of just 3 who played in a World Cup winning team and coached a team to a World Cup victory. Beckenbauer, Mario Zagalo for Brazil and Didier Deschamps from France
Lucky enough to see Der Kaiser in 1979 at Olympic Park when New York Cosmos came down for a couple of games.
28,000 of us parked the old Olympic Park and I stood next to him as a 13 year old as the team came off and went back on their bus. Now I wish we had phones back in the day
From the right - Jim Tansey, Yakka Banovic the goalkeeper, Gary Cole, striker and the tall guy in the middle. The other two I can't recall their names

Yeah good catch man. With the Kaiser and Zagallo both gone, the last man still alive of the three who played in and coached World Cup winning teams is Frenchman Didier Deschamps
And Zagallo is the only person who has been involved in reaching 6 World Cup finals, winning 4. Two as a player and as a coach.
With team mate Pele
Sad to hear about the passing of Marlena Shaw, one of my favorite singers growing up. She was a great soul funk jazz singer and her music has been sampled by many hip hop artists. Thank you for the great music, Marlena Shaw. You will be missed..

Arrgh damn another sweet old memory fades n dies. Bastard of a problem getting old, all them childhood n teen age stars fall off the perch n leave you wondering how soon before it's your turn.
Carl Weathers best known for his role as Apollo Creed in the Rocky movies dies aged 76. Loved him in Happy Gilmore too.

RIP.
Dr Lowitja O'Donoghue remembered as 'one of the most remarkable leaders this country has ever known'
WARNING: Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander viewers are warned that this story includes images of an Indigenous person who has died. Dr Lowitja O'Donoghue, who fought endlessly for the rights of her people, has died aged 91.
www.abc.net.au
How can people read her story and not gain some understanding of how disadvantaged a history the indigenous of this country have had?
I was never taught this history in primary or high school. I imagine there would have been a completely different attitude towards the indigenous in the town and at the school if I was.
At least it's different now.
