LINDA WERTHEIMER, host: In literary news this week, for the first time in more than two years,      Dan Brown's "The Da Vinci Code" will not appear on The New York Times      Best-Seller list.  Mr. Brown's book slips to number 16 in tomorrow's      paper and thus off the collection of the top 15 titles.  Nudging "Da      Vinci" are the latest from Danielle Steele, Patricia Cornwell and      Nicholas Sparks.  Of course, Dan Brown doesn't have much to worry about.      His book will come out as a paperback, and the movie of "The Da Vinci      Code" will premiere in the spring.</s>LINDA WERTHEIMER, host: Also this week, a stunt of sorts by an aspiring best-selling author.      David Harris-Gershon is auctioning off 20 percent of his future earnings      as a writer to someone willing to underwrite graduate school for him.      The 31-year-old father says he doesn't want to put his family into debt      with student loans, so he's hunting for a patron in an online auction.</s>LINDA WERTHEIMER, host: Coming up, sleuthing for a stolen Rembrandt.
For the first time in more than two years Dan Brown's The Da Vinci Code will not be on The New York Times best seller list.
