• Shooting blanks: The LA Times scrambles to right its big, fat wrong suggestion that Diddy and his associates were tied to Tupac Shakur's murder. First there was the correction, now the big, fat retraction.

• Rooster in the hen house: A former audio jockey for accused wiretapper and P.I. to the stars Anthony Pellicano, who's said to have threatened a Vanity Fair writer that was profiling him, revealed today that he currently works for Condé Nast in the info technology security department.

• Bimbo in limbo: Hey, tweens! Your Miss Bimbo avatar can't eat diet pills anymore to stay thin. But she can totally ho it up and try to find a billionaire to hook up with. Good luck, fattie!
