Samantha Ronson Accident - Samantha Ronson is nursing some wounds, after the celebrity DJ got into a bike accident on Saturday. Posting a photo of herself on Twitter, Lindsay Lohan's sometimes-girlfriend showed off two black eyes and other facial bruises. "Wear a helmet kids!!!" she wrote on Monday. "Let this be a lesson... if you have a driver's license you probably don't need to be on a bmx bike." Responding to the many Twitter followers who expressed their concern, Ronson, who got nine stitches after attempting to avoid a car on her way home, tried to put them at ease. "You should see what I looked like on Saturday," she wrote. But even with a banged up face (and some pain meds), Ronson is managing to keep her sense of humor in tact. "Just a little uglier than usual," she posted, with a smiley face. "Other than that, Vicodin is handling the rest." Samantha Ronson Accident

Pia Toscano CD - Just days after getting voted off 'American Idol' in shocking fashion, songstress Pia Toscano reportedly snapped up a record deal with Interscope Records, but sources tell me nothing has been signed as management looks into whether 19 Entertainment will allow her to release anything at all. "When you compete on 'Idol,' you must sign one of the strictest contracts in the business," a former 'AI' contestant tells me. "Not only does 'Idol' own you for the entire show and live tour that follows, it also controls everything you can do professionally for a long period after that." That means that 19 Entertainment has first crack at every artist. Pia's rep told E! News over the weekend that all the talk about a done deal is "all rumor," but it's completely true that Interscope has big plans for the Queens native, if only they can get their hands on her. As previously reported, Interscope is already...

Porcupines Public Enemy - Pennsylvania hunting regulators say it's time to stick it to porcupines. The Pennsylvania Game Commission is poised to declare open season on the slow-moving, razor-sharp rodents on Tuesday, citing complaints of property damage from residents. Other states allow porcupine hunting. In Pennsylvania, porcupines are listed as a protected species but can be killed by residents if they're causing property damage. Commission member Dave Putnam tells The Philadelphia Inquirer the proposal would offer residents the clear assurance they can kill troublesome porcupines. He says the animals damage log cabins and have been known to nibble on vehicle brake lines. Some animal welfare groups question the plan. Porcupines Public Enemy
