ABBA Drummer Dies
The former drummer for the 1970s Swedish disco group ABBA has died. The Spanish news agency EFE reports that Ola Brunkert was found by a neighbor in the garden of his home on the Spanish island of Mallorca on Sunday. A police spokeswoman tells BBC News the death appears to have been accidental. She explains that it looks as if Brunkert bled to death from a wound to his throat that may have been the result of smashing a pane of glass. Brunkert was 62. While ABBA broke up about 25 years ago, the band still reportedly sells more than two-million albums a year. The group's hits include "Dancing Queen," "Take a Chance On Me" and "Waterloo," while the Broadway musical "Mamma Mia!" is based on ABBA's songs. A big screen version of the production, starring Meryl Streep and Pierce Brosnan, is expected to be released this summer.

Stuff you might not know!
Charles Esmond Kearney (March 8, 1820 - January 3, 1898) was the first president of the
Kansas City and Cameron Railroad which as a subsidiary of the
Hannibal & St. Joseph Railroad and built the
Hannibal Bridge establishing
Kansas City, Missouri as the dominant city in the region.
He was born in
Ireland before emigrating to
Texas in 1837. He moved to Kansas City in 1852 where he outfitted travelers on the
Oregon Trail and
Santa Fe Trail from
Westport, Missouri.
During this time he saw the need for direct link from Chicago to Texas. He along with
Kersey Coates and
Robert T. Van Horn persuaded the railroad to build a cutoff of their line from
Cameron, Missouri to Kansas City for the first bridge across the
Missouri River which opened in 1869. He was the first president of the subsidiary. The result was the Hannibal Bridge which was the first bridge across the Missouri River. It established Kansas City rather than
Leavenworth, Kansas or
St. Joseph, Missouri as the dominant city in the region.
The town of
Kearney, Missouri (which is on the route) is named for him.
