♦ It's not just Sandra Will Carradine: the LAT says a veteran Beverly Hills police officer has resigned and pleaded guilty in the Anthony Pellicano a case, a turn that also implicates Bert Fields' law firm.
♦ Oh another thing about the governor's motorcycle riding: he doesn't have a license: "I just never really applied for it." He's OK for sidecar bikes, but not two-wheelers.

♦ Mack Reed of LA Voice remains in DSL hell weeks after moving to Silver Lake.
