    And RIP to all the victims of the train disaster in Spain. Really, really sad.

    Yes, terrible tragedy in Spain. These types of rail disaster are sadly all too common. Condolences to the relatives and friends of the dead and best wishes for a full recovery to the injured.

    Just learned that JJ Cale died yesterday. Here's one of his most famous songs :

    RIP dear J J Cale. I so loved many of your songs, especially Crazy Mama. Thanks for your huge contribution to music in my lifetime.

    And also RIP to a lovely, talented and memorable actress, Eileen Brennan. Most of you would probably remember her from the film Private Benjamin. She was 80.

    I'm ashamed to say that I've not come across his work. Sad news in any event.

    I am indeed sad to hear this. He is a voice many of us know instantly, yet maybe wouldn't be able to put a name to it. Batman The Animated Series is one of my favorite shows of all time, and he was one of the pinnacles of the program. His masterful take on Mr. Freeze, capturing everything from his pain, anger, depression and more added such depth and emotion to an already stellar and well-written character during his stints on the various Batman shows of the Animated DC Universe. No matter how many villains featured on the shows, no other baddie was as relatable as Fries, to the point where you stopped looking at him as a villain and simply as a man trying to help his wife. Time and time again, no matter how much he tried to save Nora, something went wrong, and even when he recovered she grew apart from him and left him for another. The character felt so much pain, and Ansara manifested all of it effortlessly with his powerful voice. Calling him a legend is an understatement. RIP, Michael.

    RIP to the lovely and talented Karen Black (Five Easy Pieces, Nashville, etc.) - about 100 films. She just passed away, after being diagnosed with cancer about 3 years ago I think. She had a unique beauty and I always liked her.

    I just heard about this. It is such a shame to hear just how much she went through, and how she did want to change her life path for the better near the end. RIP.

    And the sad chain of deaths this summer continue...

    It is with sadness that I report the death by suicide of Lee Thompson Young.

    http://tv.yahoo.com/blogs/tv-news/report--former-disney-channel-star-lee-thompson-young-found-dead-182359895.html

    This is such a shock. I have followed his work ever since I was a child when he was on the Disney Channel, and you would never think by looking at him that he was battling any kind of depression or anxiety. My thoughts are with his friends and family during this tough time.

    I checked out his IMDB - heard he's most famous for that Disney show and he was on 'Rizzoli & Isles' - and the only thing I recognized him from was the 'Hills Have Eyes 2' sequel to the remake. RIP.

    I hope he does rest in peace.

    Ted Post as passed away:

    It doesn't seem to be considered one of his best, but the Robert Mitchum & Jaclyn Smith thriller, Nightkill is a favourite of mine.

    Sad to hear of her death. A very great actress. I enjoyed her appearances in Columbo and Tales of the Unexpected very much indeed.

    RIP to the Irish poet Seamus Heaney, 74, after a rather short illness.
    Simply put, his poetry and essays have touched my soul and will stay with me always. I really cherish some of his words. Thank you, Seamus.

    My heartfelt condolences to his family and friends.
