No Busing: The Los Angeles bus shelter ads for the June Interview magazine have a red slash added by the bus shelter owners, the Gannett Outdoor Co. The original magazine cover shows Madonna in what the magazine calls a “mock macho” pose. The slash covers her right hand between her legs. But the singer/actress was not bothered. “I get censored all the time. . . . I really don’t care.”

No Regrets: If Jim Wright has any regrets about resigning as House Speaker, he’s not saying so. Speaking from his Fort Worth office cluttered by memorabilia from 34 years in Congress, Wright said: “Things happen for the better.” He resigned a year ago during an ethics investigation involving sales of his book, “Reflections of a Public Man.” He is spending time with his family and writing a book on Central America.

No Go: If former heavyweight boxing champ Mike Tyson doesn’t pay towing and storage fees in the amount of $126, he stands to lose his $85,000 car. Tyson’s 1990 gold Mercedes-Benz 500SL convertible with car phone and leather interior has been sitting in a Hudson, N.Y., car pound since May 2, when he was arrested on a charge of driving it without license plates and a registration. If Tyson doesn’t come in and pay, the car will go on the auction block later this month.

No Life?: The 12-foot American elm taken from White House grounds in 1989 and planted by President George Bush near the state Capitol in Bismarck, N.D., is fighting for its life. The tree was hurt by a late frost after a warm March brought out buds. The top of the tree appears lifeless, but buds can be found on lower branches. “It is our intent to do everything we can, if the tree can be saved, to save it,” city forester Paul Blumhardt said.
