The Good Samaritans: For being shrewd about doing good, for rewiring politics and re-engineering justice, for making mercy smarter and hope strategic and then daring the rest of us to follow, Bill and Melinda Gates and Bono are TIME's Persons of the Year.

Casting calls are going out on college campuses late next month for aspiring Rolling Stone writers who would also look good on MTV and want to become famous, or almost famous. Jann Wenner, publisher of Rolling Stone, has signed a deal with MTV for a reality show in which the magazine gives internships to several journalism students, who then compete to become a Rolling Stone contract writer. This is not unlike the plot of "Almost Famous," the semifictionalized hit movie by Cameron Crowe about his experience as a youth writing for, yes, Rolling Stone. Mr. Wenner said that contrary to rumors, he had no intentions of being the star of the show. "I've been optioned to appear if I want," he said. "But I'm not the star. They don't want me to be the star. It's not a Donald Trump-like thing. If I'm in it, I'm peripheral. I might be the person who reads a manuscript." MORE ONLINE

FAITH NO MORE: Seventeen garnered a heap of favorable press for its addition, in September 2004, of a section dedicated exclusively to matters of faith. But perhaps the media was more smitten with the concept than were the magazine's readers, because the section vanished several months ago. Editor in chief Atoosa Rubenstein said Seventeen will continue to cover religion and spirituality on a regular basis, just not in its own department. "I like to work in a very fluid way ??” it's what helps us best connect with our reader, who is also very fluid in terms of her media consumption," she said in an e-mail. And, indeed, Seventeen ran a story in November on strengthening relationships through belief, and a selection of inspirational quotes in December. January's issue, however, is faith-free ??” although it does boast 15 pages of weight-loss tips and a two-page promotion for "Miss Seventeen," Rubenstein's MTV show.

SHAPE OF THINGS TO COME: Shape's eastward migration continues. Four more staffers in the magazine's Woodland Hills, Calif., bureau were let go last week, including managing editor Susanne Stoeckeler. Jeanne Ricci, who had been freelancing for Shape in New York, has been named the new managing editor. Editor in chief Valerie Latona (who replaced California-based predecessor Anne Russell) said there will be no more relocation of jobs: "This is where it ends."
