On 16 March 2009, Richardson sustained a traumatic brain injury when she was involved in a skiing accident at the Mont Tremblant Resort in Canada.

Sheesh, they must have many ski resorts in Africa, because every year thousands of people die over there.

This is heatbreakingly tragic. She was quite good, and her husband and family are in shock. Only the good die young. :'(

According to a report on the radio this morning, she actually sent the ambulance away initially because it didn't appear that she was hurt that badly. Just goes to show, you can never be too careful when it comes to head injuries.

(I'll be shocked if some sick focker doesn't make something out of that last line.)

A York Region man connected to the Bandidos biker gang pleaded guilty today to second degree murder in the beating death of Keswick drug dealer Shawn Douse.

Two other men connected to the Bandidos gang — Cameron Acorn and Bobby Quinn, both of Keswick — each pleaded guilty to manslaughter and Pierre (Carlitto) Aragon of Oakville pleaded guilty to aggravated assault in the beating death of Douse in December 2005.

Thousands of young people die every day, and not all of them are "good".

To be honest, I don't even know who this is. She's an actor? What films has she been in?

How can you possibly display that lame Morrison line? You find that particulatly vlever or profound? So if we don't have shoulders we won't have arms either?

The medical speculation is that when she hit her head she received a concussion. While you can still function well with a concussion and may think everything is fine (as she did in this case) sometimes they develop bleeding in the brain tissue or between the brain and the skull. This bloodflow can form clots which can breakfree and cause stroke or death. This is more than likely what happened. It is a mistake not to treat any blunt trauma to the head with the utmost urgency until the danger from the concussion has passed.
