DIED. JAMES DOOHAN, 85, Canadian-born actor forever known, to his later dismay, as Montgomery Scott, level-headed chief engineer of Star Trek's U.S.S. Enterprise; in Redmond, Wash. With his exasperated Scottish burr ("We've got nuh powrrr, Cap'n!"), he saved the ship from repeated disasters, but the famous line "Beam me up, Scotty" was actually never spoken exactly that way on the original show...

Female rockers have a better shot, convention holds, if they are boy toys with cute, catchy names like . . . Madonna. NdegeOcello spent two years trying to interest record companies in her iconoclastic music, a shotgun marriage of funk, jazz, hip-hop and angry poetry that she calls "brokenhearted revolutionary love songs." Finally, in despair and ready to enroll in barber school, she got a phone call...
