The survivors of the crash of Ocean Flight 815 have untold connections that viewers of the hit ABC Lost glimpse in strobe-like flashbacks.

The astute viewer (addict would be more appropriate) knows more than the characters. Jack and Claire, for example, have no idea that they’re step-siblings. Nor has Jack learned that Shannon’s father was in a car accident with Sarah, Jack’s future wife. Jack, the physician on duty, chose to save Sarah but not Shannon’s father.

And Hurley has yet to discover that Libby gave Desmond her sailboat, or that John Lock worked for his box company.

Sometimes, though, even these lost souls figure things out. Sawyer did tell Jack that he had a long conversation with Jack’s father shortly before his death.

Anthony Pellicano: Hollywood undercover

The ongoing federal investigation of private eye Anthony Pellicano is revealing connections that many Hollywood celebs would prefer to keep quiet.

More than a dozen people have been arrested, and Pellicano is in jail, awaiting trial on charges of bribery, conspiracy, racketeering and illegal wiretapping.

Entertainment moguls and other elites have sought Pellicano’s skills over the years. His client list included former Disney chief Michael Ovitz, rock star Courtney Love and attorney Bert Fields.

It remains to be seen whether this case will establish itself as one of Tinseltown’s great scandals. A federal judge recently postponed Pellicano’s trial until 2008.

The family name has stood for money and power since John D. Rockefeller built one of America’s great fortunes with Standard Oil Co. Subsequent generations have continued to hold sway in politics, finance and philanthropy.

Jay Rockefeller – officially John D. Rockefeller IV – chairs the Senate intelligence committee. His uncle, David Rockefeller, is chairman emeritus of the Museum of Modern Art and its biggest benefactor.

One uncle, Nelson A., was governor of New York and vice president. Another, Winthrop, was governor of Arkansas. Winthrop’s son Winthrop Paul was lieutenant governor. He curtailed his campaign for governor after being diagnosed with a rare blood ailment that led to his death in 2005.
