Same old tune as Paul Singer profits from bankruptcy Monster opportunity Does anyone want to get stuck in designing virtual pet monsters in Old Street? Mind Candy millionaire Michael Acton-Smith is so troubled by the plight of jobless graduates he is considering an internship scheme at his Facebook-for-kids empire. Acton-Smith, the self-styled "entrepreneur with a short attention span," knows more than most how hard those early years can be - before he went on to take the Silicon Roundabout by storm, he was fired from a pub in Cardiff. Look-out for Lewis Can we expect to see Joe Lewis's superyacht Aviva steaming back into its moorings at Tower Bridge? As FTSE 250 stock-pickers will recall, Aviva last set off from the Bahamas shortly before the Tottenham Hotspur owner put in a bid for the troubled pub chain Mitchells & Butlers, in which he is the majority shareholder. Yesterday, the jungle drums went into overdrive when Elpida, the investment vehicle owned by Lewis's horseracing associates JP McManus and John Magnier, quietly increased its stake in the leisure group to 22.47pc. What does it all mean, fretted the market? Lewis, as ever, has no comment, but Diary's man on the riverside is now on 24-hour look-out regardless. New Look delivers the goods The best opening for a story ever. "I passed a New Look delivery lorry today," reports a mole on the private equity-owned retailer currently grappling with capital structure issues.

Delivering some 2005 fashion items perhaps? Or just Apax and Permira-pleasing cost-saving?
