He was rushed to the hospital after a 911 call was made from his residence in Clearwater, Florida, but was declared dead on arrival. WWE recently paid tribute to Hogan during an episode of Monday Night Raw. Wrestlers, ring announcers, and members of the front office gathered in front of the audience as CCO Triple-H started the proceedings with a short speech. He said, 'Ladies and gentlemen, we lost one of the biggest and most globally recognised icons in the world. A man I grew up watching, was fortunate enough to share the ring with, and like so many of us, was honoured to call a friend. The truth is, he captivated millions of people and inspired them around the globe. We would not be standing here if it were not for him. So please help us honour him now, as we give a 10-bell salute to Terry Bollea, the one and only, the immortal Hulk Hogan.'

I'm sorry to everyone I have not responded to yet. This has been overwhelming and extremely difficult. My dad was the most incredible person I've ever known and will always be my hero. He was the kindest, most loving, and most amazing father anybody could ask for. I feel so blessed to have had the greatest dad in the world. He was not only the best dad but also my mentor and my best friend. He has always been my best friend, and I love him and miss him more than I could ever explain.'

Booker Prize winner Kiran Desai up for the award again with long-awaited novel

London, Jul 29 (AP) Indian author Kiran Desai, who won the Booker Prize and then didn't publish a novel for almost two decades, is up for the award again with her long-awaited follow-up. 'The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny," the 677-page tale of two young Indians making their way in the United States, is one of 13 books announced Tuesday as semifinalists for the prestigious 50,000-pound ($67,000) prize. The contenders include authors from nine countries on four continents. It's Desai's first novel since 'The Inheritance of Loss," which won the Booker in 2006. Two previous finalists are up for the prize again: UK writer Andrew Miller, for 'The Land in Winter," and Hungarian-British writer David Szalay for 'Flesh". Tash Aw, who has been a semifinalist twice before, will be the first Malaysian winner if he takes the prize for 'The South". Five of the contenders are from Britain: Miller, Szalay, Natasha Brown ('Universality"), Jonathan Buckley ('One Boat") and Benjamin Wood ('Seascraper"). Books by US writers in the running include Susan Choi's 'Flashlight," Katie Kitamura's 'Audition" and Ben Markovits' 'The Rest of Our Lives." Also on the list are 'Misinterpretation" by Albanian-American Ledia Xhoga, 'Love Forms" by Trinidad's Claire Adam, and 'Endling," a debut novel by Canadian-Ukrainian opera librettist Maria Reva. 'The 13 longlisted novels bring the reader to Hungary, Albania, the north of England, Malaysia, Ukraine, Korea, London, New York, Trinidad and Greece, India and the West Country," said Irish novelist Roddy Doyle, chair of a five-member judging panel that includes actor Sarah Jessica Parker. 'All, somehow, examine identity, individual or national, and all, I think, are gripping and excellent," he said. Founded in 1969, the Booker Prize has a reputation for transforming writers' careers and is open to novels from any country published in the UK and Ireland. Last year's winner was 'Orbital," by British writer Samantha Harvey. A list of six finalists will be announced Sept 23, and this year's winner will be crowned on Nov 10 at a ceremony in London.
