Top aides with the Giuliani for President campaign are declining January paychecks, while insisting that it's not because the former Mayor's organization is strapped for cash. Rudy Giuliani is currently stumping in Florida after very lackluster performances in the Iowa and New Hampshire primaries. Iowa was not a surprise; Giuliani had written off the midwestern state as a poor use of time and resources. A very poor performance in New Hampshire had to have been a blow to his campaign though, as he campaigned extensively in the Granite State, although in fits and starts, which may have turned voters off.

Just after her son died, and just after her new baby girl was born, it has been announced that Anna Nicole Smith has now died at age 39. She had been at the Seminole Hard Rock Cafe Hotel and Casino, where she collapsed in a room. The police say there was no child in the room, but there was a personal nurse with her. Her bodyguard had performed CPR; apparently a paramedic said Smith was dead when he got to the room. Smith was pronounced dead at Memorial Regional Hospital in Hollywood, Florida; an autopsy will be performed tomorrow.

Few things can take the luster off a dominant road win in game one of a conference semi-finals. But that's what Richard Jefferson's ankle sprain did to the Nets' 100-88 win over Miami Monday. New Jersey came out flying and only looked back during a late fourth quarter run by Miami. Gothamist only worries about Jefferson's ankle, which did not reveal anything more than a sprain in the x-rays, according to 1130AM. (As an aside, why do the Nets get bumped from WFAN, their normal home, and not the Devils? Don't more people care about basketball than hockey?) With their forward's status up in the air for the rest of the series, so is the Nets' fate.
