Dayle Haddon dies in suspected carbon monoxide leak at Hallmark star's Pennsylvania home
Model Dayle Haddon died and another person was hospitalized after a suspected carbon monoxide leak at a home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania, on Friday, authorities said. Records show the home is owned by Haddon's daughter, former journalist Ryan Haddon, and Ryan's husband, actor Marc Blucas.
Solebury Township police say authorities were investigating a property on the 6900 block of Phillips Mill Road after a resident called 911 at around 6:30 a.m. to report a 76-year-old man had passed out on the first floor of a detached office or in-law suite on the property.
The Lambertville-New Hope Ambulance and Rescue Squad was first on the scene and removed the man from the building. He was taken to Robert Wood Johnson University Hospital in New Jersey and his condition was not immediately available.
A second victim, a 76-year-old woman, later identified by the Bucks County Coroner's Office as Dayle Haddon was found dead in a second-floor bedroom in the in-law suite. Haddon rose to fame in the 1970s and '80s as a supermodel and later became an ambassador for the humanitarian aid organization, UNICEF. She is also the founder of WomenOne, a 501(c)3 organization based in New York, focused on creating educational opportunities for girls and women, according to her website.
Officials did not immediately identify the 76-year-old man or say if Blucas or Ryan Haddon were in the home at the time.
The New Hope Eagle Volunteer Fire Company detected high levels of carbon monoxide in the building, police said.
"Preliminary investigation is showing that a heating unit malfunctioned exposing a large amount of carbon monoxide within the carriage house," said Detective Sgt. Jonathan Koretzky.
Two medics were taken to Doylestown Hospital for treatment after the exposure and a Solebury Township police officer was treated at the scene. All three are said to be stable, according to officials.
According to public records, Ryan Haddon and Blucas purchased the home in 2012 for just over $1 million. Blucas has said in multiple interviews that he is restoring the home, which was built in 1711.
The former Wake Forest University basketball player pursued a career in Hollywood and eventually appeared in "Buffy the Vampire Slayer" as Riley, one of Buffy's love interests.
He's also appeared in "Blue Bloods" and "CSI: Crime Scene Investigation," with lead roles in the TV series "Necessary Roughness" and "Killer Women." He once played Katie Holmes' love interest in the movie "First Daughter," where Holmes plays the daughter of the president of the United States. Michael Keaton plays the president in the film.
In an appearance on the Hallmark Channel promoting the 2016 movie "Operation Christmas," Blucas spoke about restoring the centuries-old property with his wife and kids.
"It was before George Washington was born… it's pretty amazing, and it's a way to stay creatively stimulated when I'm not out filming," he told hosts Mark Steines and Debbie Matenopoulos.
The Butler, Pennsylvania, native said he wanted to be closer to family so they moved back to the East Coast.
"It's the only part of the United States that has that kind of architecture with old stone barns and old stone houses," Blucas said. "And so I knew it would be projects for life, which it is."
The family lived in the guest house on the property while the main house was being renovated and then started getting animals like chickens and rabbits, he said in the interview.
Ryan Haddon now works as a life coach and hypnotherapist, according to her social media profiles. She was married to actor Christian Slater for several years and they had two children together.

Wondering if "SpaceX" was the original DARPA/NASA program, Orbital Express.
Much like Zuckerbucks became the public face of LIFELOG with the gift of Faceplant.
These are puppets. Musk was the highest (or one of them) paid Govt Contractor.
One of the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency's (DARPA) space programs before SpaceX was Orbital Express, which launched in 2007:
Orbital Express
This program involved two spacecraft, Autonomous Space Transfer and Robotic Orbiter (ASTRO) and NextSat, which spent 135 days in orbit. The two spacecraft performed a variety of tasks, including refueling, battery transfers, and flight computer changes.
Impact on space access
Orbital Express demonstrated that satellites could be serviced and maintained without a crew, and that their capabilities could be changed at any time. Today, several companies are building spacecraft to perform similar tasks.
DARPA is a research and development agency of the U.S. Department of Defense that works to develop new technologies for the military. DARPA was established in 1958 by President Dwight D. Eisenhower in response to the Soviet Union's launch of Sputnik 1. DARPA's mission is to create technological surprises for national security.

Exclusive: Musk's SpaceX is building spy satellite network for US intelligence agency, sources say
WASHINGTON, March 16 (Reuters) - SpaceX is building a network of hundreds of spy satellites under a classified contract with a U.S. intelligence agency, five sources familiar with the program said, demonstrating deepening ties between billionaire entrepreneur Elon Musk's space company and national security agencies.
The network is being built by SpaceX's Starshield business unit under a $1.8 billion contract signed in 2021 with the National Reconnaissance Office (NRO), an intelligence agency that manages spy satellites, the sources said.
he plans show the extent of SpaceX's involvement in U.S. intelligence and military projects and illustrate a deeper Pentagon investment into vast, low-Earth orbiting satellite systems aimed at supporting ground forces.
If successful, the sources said the program would significantly advance the ability of the U.S. government and military to quickly spot potential targets almost anywhere on the globe.
The contract signals growing trust by the intelligence establishment of a company whose owner has clashed with the Biden administration and sparked controversy, opens new tab over the use of Starlink satellite connectivity in the Ukraine war, the sources said.
The Wall Street Journal reported, opens new tab in February the existence of a$1.8 billion classified Starshield contractwith an unknown intelligence agency without detailing the purposes of the program.

The Colorful History of X.com (Aka the website formerly known as Twitter)
A dive down the rabbit hole of X.com’s history, based on my interviews with Elon Musk, other X.com employees, and the URL’s first owners.
As part of writing THE FOUNDERS, an early history of PayPal, I researched the origins of X.com, the single letter URL that became PayPal and today appears poised to become Twitter.
I communicated with X.com’s pre-Elon owners and interviewed Elon as well as other X.com/PayPal employees about the URL and its history.
In light of the pending Twitter name change, here’s what I found in my digging, which includes some of what I published in the book as well as material that wound up on the cutting room floor.
X.com’s first owners & early years
Early in the creation of his second start-up, Musk had conviction about its name: X.com. This was, Musk believed, simply “the coolest URL on the internet.”
He wasn’t the only one who believed so. In the early 1990s, a pair of engineers, Marcel DePaolis and Dave Weinstein, had purchased www.x.com for their company Pittsburgh Powercomputer.Their original URL — www.ppc.com — had been taken from them when the contract for managing URL DNS information was taken over by a company called Network Solutions. So they decided to call up Network Solutions and explore other URL options — which is when they discovered that X.com was available.
Then they hit a roadblock: “Next call was to our local ISP, who told us in no uncertain terms that a) one letter domain names were illegal, b) that we needed to pick a name at least three letters long, and c) if they sent in the form as requested it would be immediately rejected.” They pleaded their case, pointing out that they had just gotten approval from Network Solutions.
The ISP sent the sure-to-be-rejected form, and lo and behold, it was accepted. Crucially, DePaolis and Weinstein had managed to secure X.com just in time. As they explained in their note to me: “After ‘x’, ‘q’, and ‘z’ slipped through the ‘.com’ nets in the first year of this new service model, the arrival of 1993 saw the IANA (the Internet Assigned Numbers Authority) simply reserve the remaining 23 letters for theoretical future purposes, effectively ending the race for single letter domains.”
Musk’s first X.com purchase
After Pittsburgh Powercomputer was sold off, DePaolis and Weinstein negotiated to hold on to the X.com URL, enjoying its use for their personal email addresses. Over the years, they turned down bids to sell the URL, underwhelmed by the various offer terms.
In early 1999, they received fresh interest. “Under the looming shadow of Y2K, we were approached by Elon Musk,” they said, “…We checked him out and liked his story and plan.” This time, the deal terms proved more interesting. They sold X.com to Musk in exchange for cash and a small stake in the company.
“In the end we liked Elon, believed in him as a fellow entrepreneur and were happy to try to help him in whatever way we could to see him succeed,” DePaolis and Weinstein explained in their note to me, “To this day, we’re still rooting for him.”
