...seems only appropriate that cartoonist Charles M. Schulz, 77 and recently diagnosed with colon cancer, should decide to retire Peanuts in winter. It's the setting of so many of the strips (the last daily one will appear Jan. 3) and the season that best captures his graceful art and playful yet melancholy spirit. Perhaps it's because the lyrical, jazz-inflected animated special A Charlie Brown Christmas remains Yuletide TV's high point after 34 years. Perhaps it's because the snowscapes of Schulz's youth in Minnesota, America's Scandinavia, were the most evocative setting...

...stores until March, but the hottest dress of next season has already won friends in high-profile places. The python-print frock made its debut in Milan last September at Gucci's Spring/Summer 2000 show. Within days, Vanity Fair had secured a one-sleeved prototype to (almost) adorn CAMERON DIAZ in its current issue, and Brazilian model GISELLE showcases a version with a daring plunge on the cover of the latest Harper's Bazaar. The dress has been making the party rounds as well. A newly brunette GWYNETH PALTROW wore it to a gala for the Metropolitan Museum's Costume...

Last week, after what it deemed an appropriate time out, NBC rehired Marv Albert as its lead NBA announcer for next season. How have infamous biters fared in their public rehabilitation...
