PICKING AT LENNON'S BONES AGAIN

In creepy memorabilia news, the album John Lennon autographed for Mark David Chapman, the man who assassinated the former Beatles leader, went up for sale Friday for $525,000.

The copy of "Double Fantasy,'" by Lennon and his wife, Yoko Ono, sold for $460,000 four years ago, and is on sale again because of the recent frenzy of interest in Beatles ware, according to the owner of the website that is selling it.

"Beatles memorabilia is at an all-time peak," said Gary Zimet, owner of www.momentsintime.com. According to the site, the album's cover and dust jacket contain the "forensically enhanced" fingerprints of Chapman. No comment on the creep factor.

WARRANT FOR QUIK

San Bernardino County, Calif., authorities have issued a $50,000 arrest warrant for West Coast gangsta rapper DJ Quik in connection with a Nov. 2 incident in which Quik (also known as David Martin Blake) allegedly broke into the home of his sister and repeatedly punched her in the face.

Court records say Quik, 33, entered the home with at least two other men while his sister was asleep. She told police that Quik made comments about family problems before allegedly assaulting her. One of her two children told investigators that Quik brandished a gun and searched for his sister around the house before he left with the other men.

'PROJECT GREENLIGHT' HALTED

HBO has decided to put the brakes on a third season of "Project Greenlight." The behind-the-scenes show, created by Matt Damon and Ben Affleck, chronicled the making of such lackluster film fare as "Stolen Summer" and "The Battle of Shaker Heights." The show may find a new home on Bravo, says the Hollywood Reporter.
