Tina and Bill at Mar-a-Lago in 2006

Unusual hearing in a Palm Beach County circuit court Monday.

Judge Diana Lewis will spend most of the day dividing up $8 million in jewelry amongst divorced society stalwarts Bill and Tina Flaherty.

The treasure trove includes a $500,000-diamond-and-emerald necklace.

Tina, 70, is also well known in corporate America for punching through the glass ceilings of blue-chip companies in the 1960s and taking over Colgate-Palmolive.

Bill, 76, is an industrialist who once gave $1.5 million to West Palm Beach’s St. Marys Medical Center and another $1.5 million to the Palm Beach Zoo.

He filed for divorce in April 2007 after 33 years of marital bliss, or hell, depending who’s talking.

But while the divorce became final a year and a half later, the division of marital property continues.

So far, the Flahertys split evenly $150 million in homes and stocks and bonds.

But when it came to the bling, things haven’t gone so smoothly. So Lewis is forced to play Solomon.

The likes of Olympic riders Margie Engle and Chris Kappler led about 150 people in a poker tournament. Some preferred roulette and blackjack.

In the end, the group hoped to raise about $200,000 for the Step by Step Foundation, a non-profit that funds programs for underprivileged children.

Here’s why Sports Illustrated has nothing on Page2Live!

A  battle of the beauties — a swimwear fashion show starring NFL cheerleaders — provided the backdrop for Super Bowl season’s first party Thursday night, and Page2Live has all the pictures!

Five hundred or so VIPs, and current and former football stars, wouldn’t have missed the W South Beach pool fiesta for the world.

Every NFL team dispatched its hottest pom pom girl (click on the photo for Michele Sandberg’s gallery) to South Florida to get the party started, ahead of the Feb. 7 Super Bowl at Dolphin Stadium.

And it hasn’t been all pomp and circumstance for the sideline hotties.

“A group of us went to St. Marys (Medical Center in West Palm Beach) and the Boys & Girls Club in West Palm Beach to meet and talk with the kids,” said Dorie Grogan, who’s running the cheerleaders’ appearances. “Some of us went to Homestead Air Force Base to say ‘hi’ to the troops. We ended up visiting with the Haitian refugees who are there in tents. It was very intense.”

But Thursday night was about cheeky fun. Retired Dolphins tight-end Troy Drayton took a break from gawking at the action on the catwalk, built on the pool, to shoot the breeze with Page2Live.

“Most of us retired guys would love to go to every party between now and the Super Bowl,” said Drayton, who’s far from his slender Dolphins self. “But no one could possibly do that. So, we have to pick and choose. I’m going to go to golf tournament next week (Saturday at the Doral) and maybe the Playboy party and such. We’ll find something to do.”

Also catching the sights: former Fins Mark Duper, Nat Moore, Twan Russell and Bobby Harden; and Denver Broncos star corner back Champ Bailey and Vikings linesman Brian McKinney.

Paaaartyyyy!!!!!

In a stunning policy reversal, the city of Fort Lauderdale will no longer enforce its cast-in-stone 13-year-old ban on open liquor containers along the beach.

Until after the Super Bowl!

The ban originally was put into place to stymie what made the beach of Where the Boys Are a household name: alcohol abuse by Spring Break college students.

But starting today, boys and girls are allowed once again to walk along the beachside strip of hotels and restaurants with beer, wine and hard liquor. For as long as it’s in a plastic cup. And not on the sand.

The lifting of the liquor regulation affects a two-mile area that’ll be one of Super Bowl week’s hotspots. It starts at the Indianapolis Colts’ hotel, the Marriott Harbor Beach, and stretches north to Sunrise Boulevard.

The ban returns on the Monday after the Super Bowl.

“The hotel community along the beach lobbied hard for this,” said Tom Roth, a marketing honcho at The Atlantic Hotel. The business stands to benefit from the temporary pass, along with the W and Westin hotels. Thousands of fans are expected to bed down there.

“Fort Lauderdale has grown up, and the places we are competing with, The Breakers in Palm Beach and the Boca Raton Resort, have their guests enjoy daiquiris beachside. Why not us?”

Roth says he hopes for a Bourbon Street atmosphere on the days leading to the Feb. 7 Super Bowl at Dolphins Stadium.

There it is!

The Vince Lombardi Trophy, which goes to the winner of the Super Bowl, has arrived — days ahead of the New Orleans Saints and Indianapolis Colts.

A source along the Fort Lauderdale beachside strip where the NFL is setting up temporary headquarters tells me the sterling silver football is in a ballroom at the Westin Beach Resort, guarded by two armed beefed-up dudes.

It’ll remain there until the morning of Feb. 7, day of the big game at Dolphin Stadium.

The Tiffany & Co. piece is valued at about $25,000 and is named after the oft-quoted, classic Green Bay Packers coach Vince Lombardi.
