T.I. Had X-TRA “Goodies” Besides Weed & E-Pills.
T.I. is back in the feds’ crosshairs with new allegations he had more than Ecstasy when he was busted earlier this month. Dude had codeine and marijuana and tested positive for opiates, according to a petition signed by his probation officer. On probation from a gun-possession case that landed him in federal lockup for seven months, T.I. could end up back in jail because of the extra violations.
“We are very disappointed in Mr. Harris’ recent conduct. We will make our sentencing recommendation at the (probation) revocation hearing,” U.S. Attorney Sally Quillian Yates said Friday.

A federal judge has ordered T.I. to appear in ATL and explain why he shouldn’t go back to jail. A date for the hearing has not been set. His contact with another convicted felon the night of his drug arrest could also be a probation violation, officials said.

The Celtics lead the Lakers 9-2 in Head to Head. The Celtics Franchise also leads The Lakers franchise in Titles 17-15.

Police Shootout At The Home Of ‘Lost’ Actor Malcolm David Kelley.
Gunfire rang out near the home of “Lost” star Malcolm David Kelley this morning as cops apprehended a person suspected of breaking into his L.A. area pad … while Malcolm was inside!!!!
TMZ has learned the L.A. County Sheriff’s Dept. received a call from Malcolm — who plays Walt on the ABC show — to report a burglary in progress at the actor’s home in Bellflower, CA at 9:28 AM.
Sources close to the investigation tell us the bad guy first attempted to knock on the front door of the house — and when no one answered, the perp tried to break in through the back.
We’re told Malcolm heard the noise and immediately called 911.
When cops arrived to the scene — we’re told the bad guy tried to flee when he heard the sirens. We’re told officers fired at least one shot at the suspect outside the home — but no one was hit.
Eventually, we’re told one person was taken into custody — and is currently being detained.
Cops are still investigating the situation.
TMZ spoke to Malcolm’s rep, Dominic Friesen, who tells us, “Malcolm and his family are incredibly grateful that no one was injured during today’s incident.”
He adds, “While it has been a frightening ordeal, the family is working closely with law enforcement on the case and applaud their quick response and efforts.”

Woody Harrelson Free Of Paparazzi Assault Charges.
Court records show a lawsuit filed by a former TMZ photographer who accused Woody Harrelson of attacking him has been dismissed.
Filings in Los Angeles Superior Court state Harrelson and the photographer, Josh Levine, reached a settlement earlier this month. The details of the settlement were not included in court records.
The case had been scheduled to go to trial in early May.
Levine sued Harrelson in June 2008, alleging the Academy Award nominated actor broke his video camera, choked him and ordered his bodyguard to attack the photographer during an incident in Hollywood in 2006.
Harrelson countersued for invasion of privacy and records show that case has also been dismissed.

WOMEN’S HISTORY MONTH SPOTLIGHT: Maxine Waters.
Congresswoman Maxine Waters is considered by many to be one of the most powerful women in politics today. Her work has earned her the reputation of being an outspoken advocate for women, children, people of color and the poor.
Born on August 15, 1938, in St. Louis to Remus and Velma Lee Carr Moore, Waters was one of thirteen children. In 1961, she moved to Los Angeles, where she found work in a garment factory and as a telephone operator. In 1966, Waters was hired as an assistant teacher with the newly formed Head Start program in Watts. Waters decided to attend college while working at Head Start, and in 1970 earned a sociology degree from California State University in Los Angeles.
Waters became the voice for frustrated Head Start parents. Her efforts encouraged these parents to make federal budget requests, to contact legislators and agencies for increased funding, and to lobby for Head Start components tailored to their community. Waters’ concern for parents’ rights led her to become involved in local politics, and in 1973 she went to work as chief deputy to City Councilman David Cunningham.
In 1976, Waters quit her job and successfully ran for election to the California State Assembly. During her tenure in the State Assembly, Waters authored numerous pieces of legislation, including a law requiring state agencies to award a percentage of public contracts to minorities and women; tenants’ rights laws; a law restricting police efforts to use strip searches; and the largest divestment of state pension funds from businesses involved in South Africa.
After serving for fourteen years in the California State Assembly, in 1990 Waters successfully ran for a seat in the 29th Congressional District of California. In 1992, Waters ran in the much larger 35th District, representing South Central Los Angeles, Inglewood, Gardena and Hawthorne, and won 83 percent of the vote. Waters continues to represent the 35th District and has been active on a number of issues, including affirmative action, community development, women’s health and welfare reform.
Waters focused attention on the plight of inner-city communities as well as the allegations of CIA involvement in Contra cocaine drug trafficking in South Central Los Angeles in the mid-1980s.
Waters lives in Los Angeles and is married to Sidney Williams, former U.S. ambassador to the Bahamas. They have two adult children, Karen and Edward.

Snoop Dogg Freestylin’ In L.E.S.
Snoop Dogg still keeps it real. While walking out of The Eldridge after filming a segment for MTV News at the Lower East Side club, the rapper was approached by two high-school students who asked him to listen to rap beats they had recorded on an iPod. “Snoop puts on the earphones and then started freestyling about the Lower East Side,” says an onlooker. “He put on a great show. He ended up liking one of the beats so much that he asked his manager to get one of the kids’ e-mail addresses.”
Was Corey Haim’s Death Linked To An Illegal Drug Ring?
Was a crime involved in Corey Haim‘s death? That’s what authorities are suggesting. An “unauthorized” prescription in his name was found during an investigation into an “illegal and massive prescription-drug ring,” according to the California Attorney General’s Office. “Corey Haim’s death is yet another tragedy linked to the growing problem of prescription-drug abuse,” Attorney General Edmund G.Brown Jr . said. “It’s a serious public health problem.”
The alleged drug ring orders prescription pads from vendors using stolen doctor identities, the AG’s office says. The pads are then either sold on the street to addicts or to people who are paid to fill the prescription and then sell the drugs on the underground market, authorities say, adding that the doctor whose name is printed on the form is usually unaware that his or her identity has been stolen.
Haim dies at age 38 after collapsing in his mother’s Los Angeles apartment Wednesday. The L.A. Coroner has confirmed that four prescription pill bottles in Haim’s name were recovered from the scene. The official cause of death hasn’t been determined pending toxicology tests, although Haim’s mother was told her son suffered from pulmonary congestion.
